O you who believe! Turn to
Allâh with sincere repentance! It may be that your Lord will expaite from you
your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise) the
Day that Allâh will not disgrace the Prophet (Muhammad SAW) and those who
believe with him, Their Light will run forward before them and (with their
Records — Books of deeds) in their right hands They will say: "Our Lord!
Keep perfect our Light for us [and do not put it off till we cross over the
Sirât (a slippery bridge over the Hell) safely] and grant us forgiveness.
Verily, You are Able to do all things[] ." (8) O Prophet (Muhammad
SAW)! Strive hard against the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and be severe
against them; their abode will be Hell, and worst indeed is that destination.[] (9) Allâh sets forth an example for those who disbelieve, the
wife of Nûh (Noah) and the wife of Lut (Lot).
They were under two of our righteous slaves, but they both betrayed them (their
husbands by rejecting their doctrine) So they [Nûh (Noah) and Lut (Lot) A.S.] availed them (their respective wives) not,
against Allâh, and it was said: "Enter the Fire along with those who
enter!" (10) And Allâh has set forth an example for those who believe; the
wife of Fir'aun (Pharaoh), when she said: "My Lord! Build for me a home
with You in Paradise, and save me from Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his work, and save
me from the people who are Zâlimûn (polytheists, wrong-doers and disbelievers
in Allâh). (11) And Maryam (Mary), the daughter of 'Imrân who guarded her
chastity; and We breathed into (the sleeve of her shirt or her garment) through
Our Rûh [i.e. Jibril (Gabriel)[]], and she testified to the truth of the Words
of her Lord [i.e. believed in the Words of Allâh: "Be!" and he was;
that is 'Īsā (Jesus) son of Maryam (Mary) as a Messenger of Allâh],
and (also believed in) His Scriptures, and she was of the Qanitun (i.e. obedient
to Allâh)[]. (12)
