The Heifer (Al-Baqarah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Alif. Lam. Mim. 1 This is the exalted Book (the Qur’an), in which there is no place for doubt; a guidance for the pious. 2 Who believe in the Unknown and fulfil their devotional obligations, and spend in charity of what We have given 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 Such people are on the right way from their Lord and such are truly successful. 5 As to those who reject Faith, it is the same to them whether thou warn them or do not warn them; they will not believe. 6 God has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing, and on their eyes is a covering, and there awaits them a mighty chastisement. 7
