Meaning:-
Livestock: farm animals, such as cattle, cow.

O believers! Do not violate the sanctity of the Symbols of Allah: the Sacred Month , the animals brought for sacrifice, the garlands that mark such animals, and those people visiting the Sacred House (Ka’bah) to seek the grace and good pleasure of their Lord. When you put off your Ihram (Hajj pilgrimage is over) then you are allowed to hunt. Let not the hatred of some people – who once hindered you from the Sacred Mosque – incite you to commit transgression.

Prohibited to you are dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah , and [those animals] killed by strangling or by a violent blow or by a head-long fall or by the goring of horns, and those from which a wild animal has eaten, except what you [are able to] slaughter [before its death], and those which are sacrificed on stone altars, and [prohibited is] that you seek decision through divining arrows. That is grave disobedience. This day those who disbelieve have despaired of [defeating] your religion; so fear them not, but fear Me. This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion. But whoever is forced by severe hunger with no inclination to sin – then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

They ask you, [O Muhammad], what has been made lawful for them. Say, “Lawful for you are [all] good foods and [game caught by] what you have trained of hunting animals which you train as Allah has taught you. So eat of what they catch for you, and mention the name of Allah upon it, and fear Allah .” Indeed, Allah is swift in account.

This day [all] good foods have been made lawful, and the food of those who were given the Scripture is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. And [lawful in marriage are] chaste women from among the believers and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture before you, when you have given them their due compensation (dowries), desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking [secret] lovers. And whoever denies the faith – his work has become worthless, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers.
Meaning:-
Chaste: not having had sex, or only having a sexual relationship with the person you are married

O you who believe! When you intend to offer As-Salat (the prayer), wash your faces and your hands (forearms) up to the elbows, rub (by passing wet hands over) your heads, and (wash) your feet up to ankles. If you are in a state of Janaba (i.e. had a sexual discharge), purify yourself (bathe your whole body). But if you are ill or on a journey or any of you comes from answering the call of nature, or you have been in contact with women (i.e. sexual intercourse) and you find no water, then perform Tayammum with clean earth and rub therewith your faces and hands. Allah does not want to place you in difficulty, but He wants to purify you, and to complete His Favour on you that you may be thankful.

And remember the favor of Allah upon you and His covenant with which He bound you when you said, “We hear and we obey”; and fear Allah . Indeed, Allah is Knowing of that within the breasts.
Meaning:-
Covenant: an agreement between God and his people

O believers! Also remember Allah’s favor which He recently bestowed upon you when He restrained the hands of those who sought to harm you (Jewish plan to kill the Prophet and eminent companions through an invitation to a dinner which Allah informed him not to attend).

But whoever of you disbelieves after that has certainly strayed from the soundness of the way.”
Meaning:-

But on account of their breaking their covenant We cursed them and made their hearts hard; they altered the words from their places and they neglected a portion of what they were reminded of; and you shall always discover treachery in them excepting a few of them; so pardon them and turn away; surely Allah loves those who do good (to others).
Meaning:-
Covenant: an agreement between God and his people
Treachery: betrayal, disloyalty, unfaithfulness, backstabbing, dirty tricks.

And from those who say, “We are Christians” We took their covenant; but they forgot a portion of that of which they were reminded. So We caused among them animosity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. And Allah is going to inform them about what they used to do.
Meaning:-
Covenant: an agreement between God and his people
animosity: bitterness, strong dislike, opposition, or anger

Say, “Then who could prevent Allah at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?” And to Allah belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allah is over all things competent.
Meaning:-
Sovereignty: supreme power or authority.
Competent: having the necessary ability, knowledge, or skill to do something successfully.

But the Jews and the Christians say, “We are the children of Allah and His beloved.” Say, “Then why does He punish you for your sins?” Rather, you are human beings from among those He has created. He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allah belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, and to Him is the [final] destination.
Meaning:-
Sovereignty: supreme power or authority.

O people of the Book! Indeed Our Messenger has now come to you making clear to you the teaching of the Right Way, after a long break in the series of the Messengers, so that you may not be able to say, “No one has come to give us good news or to warn us.” Now someone has come to give you good news and warn you so listen to him. Allah has power over everything.

And [mention, O Muhammad], when Moses said to his people, “O my people, remember the favor of Allah upon you when He appointed among you prophets and made you kings and gave you that which He had not given anyone among the worlds.

“O my people! Enter the holy land (Palestine) which Allah has assigned for you. Do not turn back (from fighting in Allah ‘s cause), because if you do, you will become losers.”

They said, “O Moses, indeed within it is a people of tyrannical strength, and indeed, we will never enter it until they leave it; but if they leave it, then we will enter.”
Meaning:-
Tyrannical: exercising power in a cruel or arbitrary way.

Two men of those who feared (Allah and) on whom Allah had bestowed His Grace [they were Yusha’ (Joshua) and Kalab (Caleb)] said: “Assault: them through the gate, for when you are in, victory will be yours, and put your trust in Allah if you are believers indeed.”

He [Musa (Moses)] said: “O my Lord! I have power only over myself and my brother, so separate us from the defiantly disobedient people.”

Allah responded, “Very well, they are forbidden this land for forty years, during this time they will wander homeless on the earth, so do not grieve for these disobedient people.”
Meaning:-
Forbidden: refuse to allow (something), prohibit, not allowed, banned.
Wander: To move about without a definite destination or purpose.

And recite to them the story of Adam’s two sons, in truth, when they both offered a sacrifice [to Allah ], and it was accepted from one of them but was not accepted from the other.

Meaning:-

Meaning:-
Inmate: prisoner, convict, captive, resident,

And his soul permitted to him the murder of his brother, so he killed him and became among the losers.

(He carried around the dead body of his brother and did not know what to do with it.) Then Allah sent a crow, which dug the ground to show him how to bury the dead body of his brother. “Alas!” He cried, “I failed even to be like this raven to find some way to dispose of the dead body of my brother!” So he became full of regrets.
Meaning:-
Raven: the largest bird in the crow family, with shiny black feathers.

On account of that incident, We ordained for the Children of Israel that whoever kills a person, except as a punishment for murder or mischief in the land, it will be written in his book of deeds as if he had killed all the human beings on the surface of the Earth and whoever will save a life shall be regarded as if he gave life to all the human beings on the surface of the Earth. Yet, even though Our Messengers came to them one after the other with clear revelations, it was not long before, many of them committed excesses in the land.

Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment,

They will desire to get out of the fire but will not be able to do so and they shall have an everlasting punishment.

Meaning:-
Exemplary: (of a punishment) serving as a warning or deterrent.

But whoever repents after committing the crime and reforms his conduct, Allah will surely turn to him with forgiveness. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Meaning:-
Sovereignty: supreme power or authority.

O Messenger, let them not grieve you who hasten into disbelief of those who say, “We believe” with their mouths, but their hearts believe not, and from among the Jews. [They are] avid listeners to falsehood, listening to another people who have not come to you. They distort words beyond their [proper] usages, saying “If you are given this, take it; but if you are not given it, then beware.” But he for whom Allah intends fitnah – never will you possess [power to do] for him a thing against Allah . Those are the ones for whom Allah does not intend to purify their hearts. For them in this world is disgrace, and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.
Meaning:-
Avid: having or showing a keen interest in or enthusiasm for something.
Distort: give a misleading or false account or impression of.
Fitnah: Fitnah (Aribic) : Spreading Mischief, trying to force the Muslims to revert from their religion and re-embrace Kufr after they had believed, is worse with Allah than killing.

That is because they listen to falsehood and eat what is forbidden. Therefore, if they come to you with their cases, you may judge between them or refuse to do so. Even if you refuse, they will not be able to harm you the least, but if you do act as a judge, judge between them with fairness, for Allah loves those who judge with fairness.
Meaning:-
forbidden: refuse to allow (something), prohibit, not allowed, banned.

But why do they come to you for judgement when they have the Taurat (Torah) which contains Allah’s commandments? Yet they turn back after that. In fact, they are not true believers.

Indeed, We sent down the Torah (Torah) to Moses, in which was guidance and light. The prophets who submitted [to Allah ] judged by it for the Jews, as did the rabbis and scholars by that with which they were entrusted of the Scripture of Allah , and they were witnesses thereto. So do not fear the people but fear Me, and do not exchange My verses for a small price. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed – then it is those who are the disbelievers.
Meaning:-
Rabbis: a religious leader and teacher in the Jewish religion

We prescribed in Taurat (Torah) for them: “A life for a life, an eye for an eye, a nose for a nose, an ear for an ear, a tooth for a tooth and for a wound an equal retaliation.” But if anyone remits the retaliation by way of charity it will be an act of atonement for him; those who do not judge by the law which Allah has revealed, they are the wrongdoers.

prescribed: as a rule or a course of action to be followed, set down as a rule or guide · appointed, decreed, ordained.

And We have sent down to you (O Muhammad) the Book (this Quran) in truth, confirming the Scripture that came before it and Mohayminan (trustworthy in highness and a witness) over it (old Scriptures). So judge between them by what Allah has revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging away from the truth that has come to you. To each among you, We have prescribed a law and a clear way. If Allah willed, He would have made you one nation, but that (He) may test you in what He has given you; so strive as in a race in good deeds. The return of you (all) is to Allah; then He will inform you about that in which you used to differ.
Meaning:-
Vain: producing no result; useless.
Diverging: to follow a different direction, or to be or become different:

And judge, [O Muhammad], between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations and beware of them, lest they tempt you away from some of what Allah has revealed to you. And if they turn away – then know that Allah only intends to afflict them with some of their [own] sins. And indeed, many among the people are defiantly disobedient.
Meaning:-
Inclinations: An inclination is something you are leaning toward, such as a behavior or a habit
Afflict: (of a problem or illness) cause pain or suffering to; affect or trouble.
Disobedient: refusing or failing to obey, insubordinate,

Do they then seek the judgement of (the Days of) Ignorance? And who is better in judgement than Allah for a people who have firm Faith.
Meaning:-
Ignorance: lack of knowledge or information, unawareness of.

O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you – then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people.
Meaning:-
Allies: a person who associates, friendship or cooperates with another; supporter.

You see that those who have the disease of hypocrisy in their hearts move around in their camp saying: “We fear lest a turn of fortune strike us.” But soon when Allah gives you victory or a decision according to His will, they will regret for what they are hiding in their hearts.
Meaning:-
Hypocrisy: what they say is not what they do.

And those who believe will say, “Are these the ones who swore by Allah their strongest oaths that indeed they were with you?” Their deeds have become worthless, and they have become losers.

O believers! Whoever among you renounce Islam let him do so; soon Allah will replace them with others whom He will love and they will love Him, who will be humble towards the believers, mighty against the unbelievers, striving hard in the way of Allah, and do not fear the blame of a critic. Now this is the grace of Allah which He bestows on whom He pleases. Allah has boundless knowledge.

O you who believe! do not take for guardians those who take your religion for a mockery and a joke, from among those who were given the Book before you and the unbelievers; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah if you are believers.
Meaning:-
Mockery: behavior or speech that makes fun of someone or something in a hurtful way

And when you proclaim the call for As-Salat [call for the prayer (Adhan)], they take it (but) as a mockery and fun; that is because they are a people who understand not.

Tell them: “O people of the Book! What makes you against us other than that we believe in Allah and in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed before? The fact is that most of you are defiantly disobedient.”

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Shall I inform you of those who deserve a worse punishment from Allah ˹than the rebellious˺? They are those whom Allah has cursed; who have incurred His wrath; some of whom were turned into apes and pigs; who worshipped Taghut (false gods); these are worse in rank and far more astray from the Right Way.”

You will see many of them try to beat each other in sin and rancor, and they consume what is unlawful. Evil indeed is what they do.

Meaning:-
Rabbis: a religious leader and teacher in the Jewish religion

Wretched: unfortunate state, unpleasant or of low quality.

And the Jews say, “The hand of Allah is chained.” Chained are their hands, and cursed are they for what they say. Rather, both His hands are extended; He spends however He wills. And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. And We have cast among them animosity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. Every time they kindled the fire of war [against you], Allah extinguished it. And they strive throughout the land [causing] corruption, and Allah does not like corrupters.
Meaning:-
Transgression: to violate a law, command, moral code, etc.; offend; sin.
Animosity: strong dislike, opposition, or anger
Extinguish: to stop a fire or a light burning:

And if only the People of the Scripture had believed and feared Allah , We would have removed from them their misdeeds and admitted them to Gardens of Pleasure.

And if only they had acted according to the Taurat (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel), and what has (now) been sent down to them from their Lord (the Quran), they would surely have gotten provision from above them and from underneath their feet. There are from among them people who are on the right course (i.e. they act on the revelation and believe in Prophet Muhammad like ‘Abdullah bin Salam), but many of them do evil deeds.

O Messenger! Deliver the message which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, you are not doing justice to your mission. Allah will protect you from the mischief of the people. Rest assured that Allah will not let the unbelievers succeed against you.

Say, “O People of the Scripture, you are [standing] on nothing until you uphold [the law of] the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been revealed to you from your Lord.” And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief.

Fancies: imagination, believe or fantasy, a mental image or conception:
Impostor: a person who pretends to be someone else in order to deceive others, especially for fraudulent gain.

And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers.
Meaning:-
Forbidden: refuse to allow (something), prohibit, not allowed, banned.
refuge:-: shelter, protection, safety, security, asylum,

Trinity: the Christian Godhead as one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

So will they not repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

Astray: into error, away from the correct path or direction

Those who disbelieved from among the Children of Israel were cursed by the tongue of Dawood (David) and Isa (Jesus) the son of Maryam (Mary): because they disobeyed and committed excesses.

They used not to forbid each other the hateful things (which) they did; certainly evil was that which they did.

As you can see many of them are taking the side of the unbelievers. Evil is that, which their souls have sent forth for them for the Hereafter. Because they have incurred the wrath of Allah, so in punishment, they are going to live forever.

Incurred: all transactions, regardless of their nature, must be recorded when they occur, to come into or acquire (some consequence, usually undesirable orinjurious):

So its expiation is the feeding of ten needy people from the average of that which you feed your [own] families or clothing them or the freeing of a slave. But whoever cannot find [or afford it] – then a fast of three days [is required]. That is the expiation for oaths when you have sworn. But guard your oaths. Thus does Allah make clear to you His verses that you may be grateful.
Meaning:-
Expiation: The act of expiation is a way to atone for something you did that was wrong. It was originally used in a religious context, with expiation the way a person could gain forgiveness from a god.

O believers! Intoxicants and gambling (games of chance), dedication to stones (paying tribute to idols) and division by arrows (lottery) are the filthy works of Shaitan. so avoid it that you may be successful.

In no way has Allah appointed (anything) as a Bahîrah or a SaÉibah, or a Wasilah or a Ham; but the ones who have disbelieved fabricate against Allah lies, and most of them do not understand.

Meaning:-
Bahîrah or a SaÉibah, or a Wasilah or a Ham:

Just as, in the Indian subcontinent, cows, oxen and goats are set free after being consecrated either to God or to some idol or shrine or to some saintly person, and just as people consider it prohibited either to put them to work, to slaughter them or to derive any other kind of benefit from them, so the Arabs of the Jahiliyah period also let loose certain animals after consecrating them. Such animals were variously named.

Bahirah: was the name of a female camel which had already borne five young, the last of which was a male. The practice was to slit the ear of such a camel and then let her loose. Thereafter no one could ride her, use her milk, slaughter her or shear her hair. She was entitled to graze and drink water wherever she liked.

Sa’ibah: was the name of either a male or female camel which had been let loose after consecration as a mark of gratitude in fulfilment of a vow taken for either the recovery from some ailment or delivery from some danger. In the same way the female camel which had borne ten times, and each time a female, was also let loose.

Wasilah: If the first kid born to a goat was a male, it was slaughtered in the name of the deities; but if it was a female, it was kept by the owners for themselves. If twins were born and one of them was a male and the other a female goat, the male was not slaughtered but rather let loose in the name of the deities. This male goat was called wasilah.

Ham: If the young of camels in the second degree of descent had become worthy of riding they were let loose. Likewise, if ten offspring had been borne by a female camel she was also let loose, and called ham.
fabricate: invent, create, they invent it in order to deceive people.

O believers! When death approaches any one of you, let two just men from among yourselves act as witnesses at the time of making your last will; or from the non-Muslims if you are travelling through the land and the calamity of death overtakes you. If you doubt their honesty, detain them after prayer and let them both swear by Allah: “We will not sell our testimony for any price, even to a relative, and we will not hide the testimony which we will be giving for the sake of Allah; for we shall be sinners if we do so.”
Meaning:-
Calamity: an event causing great and often sudden damage or distress; a disaster.
Detain: to hold, delay.
Testimony: witness, Eye witness, evidence.

Then if it becomes known that they both have been guilty of a sin, two others shall stand up in their place from among those who have a claim against them, the two nearest in kin; so they two should swear by Allah: Certainly our testimony is truer than the testimony of those two, and we have not exceeded the limit, for then most surely we should be of the unjust.

Allah said, “Indeed, I will sent it down to you, but whoever disbelieves afterwards from among you – then indeed will I punish him with a punishment by which I have not punished anyone among the worlds.”

And [beware the Day] when Allah will say, “O Jesus, Son of Mary, did you say to the people, ‘Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah ?'” He will say, “Exalted are You!
