[5:83]
When they listen to that which hath been
revealed unto the messengers, thou seest their eyes overflow with tears because
of their recognition of the Truth. They say: Our Lord, we believe. Inscribe us
as among the witnesses.
[5:84]
How should we not believe in Allah and that
which hath come unto us of the Truth. And (how should
we not) hope that our Lord will bring us in along with righteous folk ?
[5:85]
Allah hath rewarded them for that their saying -
Gardens underneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide for ever. That is
the reward of the good.
[5:86]
But those who disbelieve and deny Our revelations, they are owners of hell-fire.
[5:87]
O ye who believe! Forbid not the good things
which Allah hath made lawful for you, and transgress not, Lo! Allah loveth not
transgressors.
[5:88]
Eat of that which Allah hath bestowed on you as
food lawful and good, and keep your duty to Allah in Whom
ye are believers.
[5:89]
Allah will not take you to task for that which
is unintentional in your oaths, but He will take you to task for the oaths
which ye swear in earnest. The expiation thereof is the feeding of ten of the
needy with the average of that wherewith ye feed your own folk, or the clothing
of them, or the liberation of a slave, and for him who findeth not (the
wherewithal to do so) then a three days’ fast. This is the expiation of your
oaths when ye have sworn; and keep your oaths. Thus Allah expoundeth unto you
His revelations in order that ye may give thanks.
