[7:156]
And ordain for us in this world that which is
good, and in the Hereafter (that which is good), Lo! We have turned unto Thee.
He said: I smite with My punishment whom I will, and My mercy embraceth all
things, therefore I shall ordain it for those who ward off (evil) and pay the
poor- due, and those who believe Our revelations;
[7:157]
Those who follow the messenger, the Prophet who can
neither read nor write, whom they will find described in the Torah and the
Gospel (which are) with them. He will enjoin on them that which is right and
forbid them that which is wrong. He will make lawful for them all good things
and prohibit for them only the foul; and he will relieve them of their burden
and the fetters that they used to wear. Then those who believe in him, and
honour him, and help him, and follow the light which is sent down with him:
they are the successful.
[7:158]
Say (O Muhammad): O mankind! Lo! I am the
messenger of Allah to you all - (the messenger of) Him unto Whom
belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. There is no God save
Him. He quickeneth and He giveth death. So believe in Allah and His messenger,
the Prophet who can neither read nor write, who believeth in Allah and in His
Words, and follow him that haply ye may be led aright.
[7:159]
And of Moses’ folk there is a community who lead with truth and establish justice therewith.
