66. At-Tahrîm
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most
Merciful. |
| 1. |
 O Prophet!
Why do you ban (for yourself) that which Allâh has made lawful to you,
seeking to please your wives? And Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most
Merciful. |
| 2. |
 Allâh has
already ordained for you (O men), the dissolution of your oaths. And Allâh
is your Maula (Lord, or Master, or Protector, etc.) and He is the
All-Knower, the All-Wise. |
| 3. |
 And
(remember) when the Prophet (SAW) disclosed a matter in
confidence to one of his wives (Hafsah), so when she told it (to another
i.e. 'Aishah), and Allâh made it known to him, he informed part thereof
and left a part. Then when he told her (Hafsah) thereof, she said: "Who
told you this?" He said: "The All-Knower, the All-Aware (Allâh) has told
me". |
| 4. |
 If you two
(wives of the Prophet SAW, namely 'Aishah and Hafsah
radhiallahu'anhu>) turn in repentance to Allâh, (it
will be better for you), your hearts are indeed so inclined (to oppose
what the Prophet SAW likes), but if you help one another against
him (Muhammad SAW), then verily, Allâh is his Maula (Lord,
or Master, or Protector, etc.), and Jibrael (Gabriel), and the righteous
among the believers, and furthermore, the angels are his helpers. |
| 5. |
 It may be if
he divorced you (all) that his Lord will give him instead of you, wives
better than you, Muslims (who submit to Allâh), believers, obedient to
Allâh, turning to Allâh in repentance, worshipping Allâh sincerely,
fasting or emigrants (for Allâh's sake), previously married and virgins.
|
| 6. |
 O you who
believe! Ward off from yourselves and your families a Fire (Hell) whose
fuel is men and stones, over which are (appointed) angels stern (and)
severe, who disobey not, (from executing) the Commands they receive from
Allâh, but do that which they are commanded. |
| 7. |
 (It will be
said in the Hereafter) O you who disbelieve (in the Oneness of Allâh -
Islâmic Monotheism)! Make no excuses this Day! You are being requited only
for what you used to do[] . |
| 8. |
 O you who
believe! Turn to Allâh with sincere repentance! It may be that your Lord
will remit from you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which
rivers flow (Paradise) the Day that Allâh will not disgrace the Prophet
(Muhammad SAW) and those who believe with him, their Light will
run forward before them and with (their Records Books of deeds) in their
right hands they will say: "Our Lord! Keep perfect our Light for us [and
do not put it off till we cross over the Sirât (a slippery bridge
over the Hell) safely] and grant us forgiveness. Verily, You are Able to
do all things[] ." |
| 9. |
 O Prophet
(Muhammad SAW)! Strive hard against the disbelievers and the
hypocrites, and be severe against them, their abode will be Hell, and
worst indeed is that destination.[] |
| 10. |
 Allâh sets
forth an example for those who disbelieve, the wife of Nûh (Noah) and the
wife of Lout (Lot). They were under two of our righteous slaves, but they
both betrayed their (husbands by rejecting their doctrine) so they [Nûh
(Noah) and Lout (Lot) >>>] benefited them
(their respective wives) not, against Allâh, and it was said: "Enter the
Fire along with those who enter!" |
| 11. |
 And Allâh
has set forth an example for those who believe, the wife of Fir'aun
(Pharaoh), when she said: "My Lord! Build for me a home with You in
Paradise, and save me from Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his work, and save me
from the people who are Zâlimûn (polytheists, wrong-doers and
disbelievers in Allâh). |
| 12. |
 And Maryam
(Mary), the daughter of 'Imrân who guarded her chastity; and We breathed
into (the sleeve of her shirt or her garment) through Our Rûh [i.e.
Jibrael (Gabriel)[]], and she testified to the truth of
the Words of her Lord [i.e. believed in the Words of Allâh: "Be!" and he
was; that is 'Iesa (Jesus) son of Maryam (Mary); as a Messenger of
Allâh], and (also believed in) His Scriptures, and she was of the
Qanitîn (i.e. obedient to
Allâh)[]. |
