وَلَا تَقۡرَبُواْ ٱلزِّنَىٰٓۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فَٰحِشَةٗ وَسَآءَ سَبِيلٗا 32

32        And don’t come near unlawful sex. Indeed, it is an indecent activity and an evil way (since it causes enmity, mischief and affects the family-chain).

وَلَا تَقۡتُلُواْ ٱلنَّفۡسَ ٱلَّتِي حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّۗ وَمَن قُتِلَ مَظۡلُومٗا فَقَدۡ جَعَلۡنَا لِوَلِيِّهِۦ سُلۡطَٰنٗا فَلَا يُسۡرِف فِّي ٱلۡقَتۡلِۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مَنصُورٗا 33

33        And don’t kill anyone whose killing has been forbidden by Allah, except for a just cause. And whoever is killed wrongfully, We have given his heir the authority (to demand Qisas, or to forgive, or to take blood-money). But let him not exceed limits in the matter of taking life. Indeed, he is helped (by the Islamic law).

وَلَا تَقۡرَبُواْ مَالَ ٱلۡيَتِيمِ إِلَّا بِٱلَّتِي هِيَ أَحۡسَنُ حَتَّىٰ يَبۡلُغَ أَشُدَّهُۥۚ وَأَوۡفُواْ بِٱلۡعَهۡدِۖ إِنَّ ٱلۡعَهۡدَ كَانَ مَسۡ‍ُٔولٗا 34

34        And don’t even go near the wealth of an orphan except the way which is (religiously) approved un-til he becomes mature (physically and mentally). And fulfil (every) promise. Indeed, you will be ques-tioned about your promise (on the Day of Judgement).

وَأَوۡفُواْ ٱلۡكَيۡلَ إِذَا كِلۡتُمۡ وَزِنُواْ بِٱلۡقِسۡطَاسِ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمِۚ ذَٰلِكَ خَيۡرٞ وَأَحۡسَنُ تَأۡوِيلٗا 35

35        And when you measure, give full measure and weigh with a balance that is straight. It is a good practice and its end result is good too. (There is not only reward in the Hereafter but it also promotes good personal relations which in turn promotes trading).

وَلَا تَقۡفُ مَا لَيۡسَ لَكَ بِهِۦ عِلۡمٌۚ إِنَّ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَٱلۡبَصَرَ وَٱلۡفُؤَادَ كُلُّ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ كَانَ عَنۡهُ مَسۡ‍ُٔولٗا 36

36        And don’t pursue that of which you have no knowledge (i.e. do not try to know other’s secrets). Indeed, the hearing, the eyesight, and the heart, each of them will be questioned (by Allah on the Day of Judgement).

وَلَا تَمۡشِ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مَرَحًاۖ إِنَّكَ لَن تَخۡرِقَ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَلَن تَبۡلُغَ ٱلۡجِبَالَ طُولٗا 37

37        And don’t walk in the earth arrogantly. Indeed, you can neither penetrate the earth, nor can you be as tall as a mountain.

كُلُّ ذَٰلِكَ كَانَ سَيِّئُهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّكَ مَكۡرُوهٗا 38

38        The evil of all the above mentioned things are very hateful to your Creator.

ذَٰلِكَ مِمَّآ أَوۡحَىٰٓ إِلَيۡكَ رَبُّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡحِكۡمَةِۗ وَلَا تَجۡعَلۡ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتُلۡقَىٰ فِي جَهَنَّمَ مَلُومٗا مَّدۡحُورًا 39

39        [O Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)!]. This is (part of) the wisdom your Creator has revealed to you. Don’t setup other gods with Allah lest you be thrown into Hell, blameworthy and rejected (from Allah’s Mercy).

أَفَأَصۡفَىٰكُمۡ رَبُّكُم بِٱلۡبَنِينَ وَٱتَّخَذَ مِنَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ إِنَٰثًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ لَتَقُولُونَ قَوۡلًا عَظِيمٗا 40

40        Has your Creator chosen for you sons and kept daughters for Him from the angels? You are, in-deed, a big mouth uttering an awful thing!

وَلَقَدۡ صَرَّفۡنَا فِي هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ لِيَذَّكَّرُواْ وَمَا يَزِيدُهُمۡ إِلَّا نُفُورٗا 41

41        And We have indeed explained (various matters) in this Quran (from many angles) so that they may understand them. And it, however, increases hatred in them.

قُل لَّوۡ كَانَ مَعَهُۥٓ ءَالِهَةٞ كَمَا يَقُولُونَ إِذٗا لَّٱبۡتَغَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ ذِي ٱلۡعَرۡشِ سَبِيلٗا 42

42        [O Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)!] Say: “If there had been other gods along with Allah, as they claim, then they would have found a way to the Owner of the Throne (to get control over Him).”

سُبۡحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يَقُولُونَ عُلُوّٗا كَبِيرٗا 43

43        Glorified and Exalted is He! High above (the big lie) they utter.

تُسَبِّحُ لَهُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتُ ٱلسَّبۡعُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَن فِيهِنَّۚ وَإِن مِّن شَيۡءٍ إِلَّا يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمۡدِهِۦ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تَفۡقَهُونَ تَسۡبِيحَهُمۡۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ حَلِيمًا غَفُورٗا 44

44        The seven skies and the earth, and all that is in them, glorify Allah. Everything glorifies His Praise but you don’t understand their glorification. Indeed, He is Forbearing, Very-Forgiving. (Also Surah Sa'd:18)

وَإِذَا قَرَأۡتَ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ جَعَلۡنَا بَيۡنَكَ وَبَيۡنَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ حِجَابٗا مَّسۡتُورٗا 45

45        And when you [Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)] recite the Quran (for preaching), We put an invisible barrier between you and those who don’t believe in the Hereafter.

وَجَعَلۡنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمۡ أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفۡقَهُوهُ وَفِيٓ ءَاذَانِهِمۡ وَقۡرٗاۚ وَإِذَا ذَكَرۡتَ رَبَّكَ فِي ٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ وَحۡدَهُۥ وَلَّوۡاْ عَلَىٰٓ أَدۡبَٰرِهِمۡ نُفُورٗا 46

46        And (that barrier is) We put a covering on their hearts lest they understand (the purpose of the Quran) and deafness in their ears (lest they listen to the guidance). And when you mention your Creator Alone in the Quran, they turn away from you on their backs hating (what you have presented).

نَّحۡنُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يَسۡتَمِعُونَ بِهِۦٓ إِذۡ يَسۡتَمِعُونَ إِلَيۡكَ وَإِذۡ هُمۡ نَجۡوَىٰٓ إِذۡ يَقُولُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ إِن تَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا رَجُلٗا مَّسۡحُورًا 47

47        We are fully aware of their (intentions) with which they listen while listening to you and during their secret whispering among themselves and when the wrong-doers say: “You are following only a bewitched person (i.e. a mad person).”

ٱنظُرۡ كَيۡفَ ضَرَبُواْ لَكَ ٱلۡأَمۡثَالَ فَضَلُّواْ فَلَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ سَبِيلٗا 48

48        [O Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)!]. Note what kind of examples or labels they put on you. So they have gone astray, and it is impossible for them to even find a way.

وَقَالُوٓاْ أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَٰمٗا وَرُفَٰتًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبۡعُوثُونَ خَلۡقٗا جَدِيدٗا 49

49        And they say: “When We are bones and decayed fragments, will we really be resurrected?” 

۞قُلۡ كُونُواْ حِجَارَةً أَوۡ حَدِيدًا 50

50        [O Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)!] Say: “Be you stones or iron.

أَوۡ خَلۡقٗا مِّمَّا يَكۡبُرُ فِي صُدُورِكُمۡۚ فَسَيَقُولُونَ مَن يُعِيدُنَاۖ قُلِ ٱلَّذِي فَطَرَكُمۡ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٖۚ فَسَيُنۡغِضُونَ إِلَيۡكَ رُءُوسَهُمۡ وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هُوَۖ قُلۡ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونَ قَرِيبٗا 51

51        “Or any creature which is greater (or harder) in your breasts (even then you will be resurrected).” Then, they will say: “Who shall bring us back (to life)?” Say: “He who created you first time!” Then, they will shake their heads at you and say: “When will that be?” Say: “Most probably it is very near.”
