| 2:54 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember˺ when Moses said to his people, “O my people! Surely you have wronged yourselves by worshipping the calf, so turn in repentance to your Creator and execute ˹the calf-worshippers among˺ yourselves. That is best for you in the sight of your Creator.” Then He accepted your repentance. Surely He is the Accepter of Repentance, Most Merciful. | |
| 2:55 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember˺ when you said, “O Moses! We will never believe you until we see Allah with our own eyes,” so a thunderbolt struck you while you were looking on. | |
| 2:56 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Then We brought you back to life after your death, so that perhaps you would be grateful. | |
| 2:57 | 1 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember when˺ We shaded you with clouds and sent down to you manna and quails,1 ˹saying˺, “Eat from the good things We have provided for you.” The evildoers ˹certainly˺ did not wrong Us, but wronged themselves. | |
| 2:58 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember˺ when We said, “Enter this city and eat freely from wherever you please; enter the gate with humility, saying, ‘Absolve us.’ We will forgive your sins and multiply the reward for the good-doers.” | |
| 2:59 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | But the wrongdoers changed the words they were commanded to say. So We sent down a punishment from the heavens upon them for their rebelliousness. | |
| 2:60 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember˺ when Moses prayed for water for his people, We said, “Strike the rock with your staff.” Then twelve springs gushed out, ˹and˺ each tribe knew its drinking place. ˹We then said,˺ “Eat and drink of Allah’s provisions, and do not go about spreading corruption in the land.” | |
| 2:61 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember˺ when you said, “O Moses! We cannot endure the same meal ˹every day˺. So ˹just˺ call upon your Lord on our behalf, He will bring forth for us some of what the earth produces of herbs, cucumbers, garlic, lentils, and onions.” Moses scolded ˹them˺, “Do you exchange what is better for what is worse? ˹You can˺ go down to any village and you will find what you have asked for.” They were stricken with disgrace and misery, and they invited the displeasure of Allah for rejecting Allah’s signs and unjustly killing the prophets. This is ˹a fair reward˺ for their disobedience and violations. | |
| 2:62 | 2 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Indeed, the believers, Jews, Christians, and Sabians1—whoever ˹truly˺ believes in Allah and the Last Day and does good will have their reward with their Lord. And there will be no fear for them, nor will they grieve.2 | |
| 2:63 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember˺ when We took a covenant from you and raised the mountain above you ˹saying˺, “Hold firmly to that ˹Scripture˺ which We have given you and observe its teachings so perhaps you will become mindful ˹of Allah˺.” | |
| 2:64 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Yet you turned away afterwards. Had it not been for Allah’s grace and mercy upon you, you would have certainly been of the losers. | |
| 2:65 | 1 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | You are already aware of those of you who broke the Sabbath. We said to them, “Be disgraced apes!”1 | |
| 2:66 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | So We made their fate an example to present and future generations, and a lesson to the God-fearing. | |
| 2:67 | 1 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And ˹remember˺ when Moses said to his people, “Allah commands you to sacrifice a cow.”1 They replied, “Are you mocking us?” Moses responded, “I seek refuge in Allah from acting foolishly!” | |
| 2:68 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | They said, “Call upon your Lord to clarify for us what type ˹of cow˺ it should be!” He replied, “Allah says, ‘The cow should neither be old nor young but in between. So do as you are commanded!’” | |
| 2:69 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | They said, “Call upon your Lord to specify for us its colour.” He replied, “Allah says, ‘It should be a bright yellow cow—pleasant to see.’” | |
| 2:70 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Again they said, “Call upon your Lord so that He may make clear to us which cow, for all cows look the same to us. Then, Allah willing, we will be guided ˹to the right one˺.” | |
| 2:71 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | He replied, “Allah says, ‘It should have been used neither to till the soil nor water the fields; wholesome and without blemish.’” They said, “Now you have come with the truth.” Yet they still slaughtered it hesitantly! | |
| 2:72 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | ˹This is˺ when a man was killed and you disputed who the killer was, but Allah revealed what you concealed. | |
| 2:73 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | So We instructed, “Strike the dead body with a piece of the cow.” This is how ˹easily˺ Allah brings the dead to life, showing you His signs so that you may understand. | |
