Sura 5 Al-Ma'idah (The Table Spread), ayah 44

  1. إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَا التَّوْرَاةَ فِيهَا هُدًى وَنُورٌ ۚ يَحْكُمُ بِهَا النَّبِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُوا لِلَّذِينَ هَادُوا وَالرَّبَّانِيُّونَ وَالْأَحْبَارُ بِمَا اسْتُحْفِظُوا مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَكَانُوا عَلَيْهِ شُهَدَاءَ ۚ فَلَا تَخْشَوُا النَّاسَ وَاخْشَوْنِ وَلَا تَشْتَرُوا بِآيَاتِي ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا ۚ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْكُمْ بِمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ

    Translation by words

    إِنَّآ
    Indeed,
    أَنزَلْنَا
    We revealed
    ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةَ
    the Taurat
    فِيهَا
    in it
    هُدًى
    (was) Guidance
    وَنُورٌ
    and light;
    يَحْكُمُ
    judged
    بِهَا
    by it
    ٱلنَّبِيُّونَ
    the Prophets,
    ٱلَّذِينَ
    those who
    أَسْلَمُوا۟
    had submitted (to Allah)
    لِلَّذِينَ
    for those who
    هَادُوا۟
    were Jews,
    وَٱلرَّبَّٰنِيُّونَ
    and the Rabbis,
    وَٱلْأَحْبَارُ
    and the scholars,
    بِمَا
    with what
    ٱسْتُحْفِظُوا۟
    they were entrusted
    مِن
    of
    كِتَٰبِ
    (the) Book
    ٱللَّهِ
    (of) Allah
    وَكَانُوا۟
    and they were
    عَلَيْهِ
    to it
    شُهَدَآءَ
    witnesses.
    فَلَا
    So (do) not
    تَخْشَوُا۟
    fear
    ٱلنَّاسَ
    the people
    وَٱخْشَوْنِ
    but fear Me,
    وَلَا
    and (do) not
    تَشْتَرُوا۟
    sell
    بِـَٔايَٰتِى
    My Verses
    ثَمَنًا
    (for) a price,
    قَلِيلًا
    little.
    وَمَن
    And whoever
    لَّمْ
    (does) not
    يَحْكُم
    judge
    بِمَآ
    by what
    أَنزَلَ
    has revealed
    ٱللَّهُ
    Allah,
    فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ
    then those
    هُمُ
    [they]
    ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ
    (are) the disbelievers.

    Indeed, We sent down the Torah, in which was guidance and light. The prophets who submitted (to Allah) judged by it for the Jews, as did the rabbis and scholars by that with which they were entrusted of the Scripture of Allah, and they were witnesses thereto. So do not fear the people but fear Me, and do not exchange My verses for a small price. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the disbelievers.
