The Heifer (Al-Baqarah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
A. L. M. 1 This is the Book of Allah: there is no doubt about it. It is guidance to Godfearing people, 2 who believe in the Unseen, and perform the prayer, and expend of that We have provided them; 3 who believe in what has been sent down to thee and what has been sent down before thee, and have faith in the Hereafter; 4 These depend on guidance from their Lord. These are the successful. 5 As for those whose fate is disbelief, whether you warn them or do not warn them – it is all one for them; they will not believe. (Because their hearts are sealed – see next verse). 6 Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing, and over their vision is a veil. And for them is a great punishment. 7
