67. To every People have We appointed rites and ceremonies which they must
follow: let them not then dispute with thee on the matter, but do thou invite
(them) to thy Lord: for thou art assuredly on the Right Way.
68. If they do wrangle with thee, say, "(Allah) knows best what it is ye are
doing."
69. "(Allah) will judge between you on the Day of Judgment concerning the
matters in which ye differ."
70. Knowest thou not that Allah knows all that is in heaven and on earth? Indeed
it is all in a Record, and that is easy for Allah.
71. Yet they worship, besides Allah, things for which no authority has been sent
down to them, and of which they have (really) no knowledge: for those that do
wrong there is no helper.
72. When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, thou wilt notice a denial on the
faces of the Unbelievers! they nearly attack with violence those who rehearse
Our Signs to them. Say, "Shall I tell you of something (far) worse than these
Signs? It is the Fire (of Hell)! Allah has promised it to the Unbelievers! and
evil is that destination!"
73. O men! Here is a parable set forth! listen to it! Those on whom, besides
Allah, ye call, cannot create (even) a fly, if they all met together for the
purpose! and if the fly should snatch away anything from them, they would have
no power to release it from the fly. Feeble are those who petition and those
whom they petition!
74. No just estimate have they made of Allah. for Allah is He Who is strong and
able to Carry out His Will.
75. Allah chooses messengers from angels and from men for Allah is He Who hears
and sees (all things).
76. He knows what is before them and what is behind them: and to Allah go back
all questions (for decision).
77. O ye who believe! bow down, prostrate yourselves, and adore your Lord; and
do good; that ye may prosper.
78. And strive in His cause as ye ought to strive, (with sincerity and under
discipline). He has chosen you, and has imposed no difficulties on you in
religion; it is the cult of your father Abraham. It is He Who has named you
Muslims, both before and in this (Revelation); that the Messenger may be a
witness for you, and ye be witnesses for mankind! So establish regular Prayer,
give regular Charity, and hold fast to Allah. He is your Protector - the Best to
protect and the Best to help!
