[9:112]
(Triumphant) are those who turn repentant (to
Allah), those who serve (Him), those who praise (Him), those who fast, those
who bow down, those who fall prostrate (in worship), those who enjoin the right
and who forbid the wrong and those who keep the limits (ordained) of Allah -
And give glad tidings to believers!
[9:113]
It is not for the Prophet, and those who
believe, to pray for the forgiveness of idolaters even though they may be near
of kin (to them) after it hath become clear that they are people of hell-fire.
[9:114]
The prayer of Abraham for the forgiveness of his
father was only because of a promise he had promised him, but when it had
become clear unto him that he (his father) was an enemy to Allah he (Abraham)
disowned him. Lo! Abraham was soft of heart, long-suffering.
[9:115]
It was never Allah’s (part) that He should send
a folk astray after He had guided them until He had made clear unto them what
they should avoid. Lo! Allah is Aware of all things.
[9:116]
Lo! Allah! Unto Him belongeth the Sovereignty of
the heavens and the earth. He quickeneth and He giveth death. And ye have,
instead of Allah, no protecting friend nor helper.
[9:117]
Allah hath turned in mercy to the Prophet, and
to the Muhajirin and the Ansar who followed him in the hour of hardship. After
the hearts of a party of them had almost swerved aside, then turned He unto them in mercy. Lo! He is Full
of Pity, Merciful for them.
