AL BAYYINAH

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

98-1

Those who reject (Truth), among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists, were not going to depart (from their ways) until there should come to them Clear Evidence,-

98-2

An apostle from God, rehearsing scriptures kept pure and holy:

98-3

Wherein are laws (or decrees) right and straight.

98-4

Nor did the People of the Book make schisms, until after there came to them Clear Evidence.

98-5

And they have been commanded no more than this: To worship God, offering Him sincere devotion, being true (in faith); to establish regular prayer; and to practise regular charity; and that is the Religion Right and Straight.

98-6

Those who reject (Truth), among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists, will be in Hell-Fire, to dwell therein (for aye). They are the worst of creatures.

98-7

Those who have faith and do righteous deeds,- they are the best of creatures.

98-8

Their reward is with God: Gardens of Eternity, beneath which rivers flow; they will dwell therein for ever; God well pleased with them, and they with Him: all this for such as fear their Lord and Cherisher.
