The Heifer (Al-Baqarah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
ALIF LAM MIM. 1 There is no doubt that this book is a guide for the pious; 2 Who believe in the Unseen, and establish worship, and spend of that We have bestowed upon them; 3 who have faith in what has been revealed to you and others before you and have strong faith in the life hereafter. 4 They are on (true) guidance from their Lord, and they 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 on their hearts and on their hearings, (i.e. they are closed from accepting Allah's Guidance), and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be a great torment. 7
