[Taubah 9:32] They wish to extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will not agree except that He will perfect His light, even if the disbelievers get annoyed. [Taubah 9:33] It is He Who has sent His Noble Messenger with guidance and the true religion, in order to prevail over all other religions - even if the polytheists get annoyed. [Taubah 9:34] O People who Believe! Indeed many of the (Jewish) rabbis and the (Christian) monks unjustly devour people's wealth and prevent from Allah’s way; and those who hoard up gold and silver and do not spend it in Allah’s way - so them give the glad tidings of a painful punishment. [Taubah 9:35] The day when it will be heated in the fire of hell, and their foreheads and their sides and their backs will be branded with them; "Here is what you hoarded for yourselves; so now taste the joy of your hoarding!" [Taubah 9:36] Indeed the number of months before Allah
is twelve - in the Book of Allah - since the day He created the heavens
and the earth, of which four are sacred; this the straight religion; so
do not wrong yourselves in those months; and constantly fight against the
polytheists as they constantly fight against you; and know well that Allah
is with the pious. |
