In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful.
Extolled be the glory of Him who conveyed his servant by night from the Sacred Mosque to the furthest mosque, whose precincts we have blessed, to show him our signs! Verily, He it is who heareth and seeth!
And we gave the Book of the Law to Moses and made it a guide to the Children of Israel—“Take ye no guardian beside Me,
Seed of those whom we bare [in the ark] with Noah! Verily he was a grateful servant!”
And we ordained for the Children of Israel in the Book,—“Ye shall surely work iniquity in the earth twice, and ye shall be puffed up with a mighty arrogance.”
So when the threat came to pass for the first of the two sins, we sent upon you servants of ours armed with grievous punishment; and they went among your houses, and the threat was carried out.
Then in turn we gave you victory over them, and helped you with riches and sons, and made you a very numerous host.
If ye do well, ye will do well to your own souls, and if ye do ill, it will be to them also. And when the threat came to pass for the second sin,—[the enemy came] to afflict you, and to enter the mosque as they entered it the first time, and to utterly destroy what they had overpowered.
Haply your Lord will have mercy on you! and if ye turn, we will turn; but we have made Hell for a prison for the unbelievers.
Verily this Korān guideth to the right way and giveth good tidings to believers,
