In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
1. Glorifying God is everything in the heavens and the earth. He is the Almighty, the Wise.
2. To Him belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. He gives life and causes death, and He has power over all things.
3. He is the First and the Last, and the Outer and the Inner, and He has knowledge of all things.
4. It is He who created the heavens and the earth in six days, then settled over the Throne. He knows what penetrates into the earth, and what comes out of it, and what descends from the sky, and what ascends to it. And He is with you wherever you may be. God is Seeing of everything you do.
5. To Him belongs the kingship of the heavens and the earth, and to God all matters are referred.
6. He merges the night into the day, and He merges the day into the night; and He knows what the hearts contains.
7. Believe in God and His Messenger, and spend from what He made you inherit. Those among you who believe and give will have a great reward.
8. What is the matter with you that you do not believe in God, when the Messenger calls you to believe in your Lord, and He has received a pledge from you, if you are believers?
9. It is He who sends down upon His servant clear revelations, to bring you out of darkness into the light. God is Gentle towards you, Most Compassionate.
10. And why is it that you do not spend in the cause of God, when to God belongs the inheritance of the heavens and the earth? Not equal among you are those who contributed before the conquest, and fought. Those are higher in rank than those who contributed afterwards, and fought. But God promises both a good reward. God is Well Experienced in what you do.
11. Who is he who will lend God a loan of goodness, that He may double it for him, and will have a generous reward?
