The Heifer (Al-Baqarah)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
ALIF LAM MIM. 1 This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah; 2 Who believe in the Unseen, and establish prayer, and out of that wherewith We have provided them expend. 3 who believe in what has been sent down to thee and what has been sent down before thee, and have faith in the Hereafter; 4 they are the people who are rightly following their Lord and it is they who shall be successful. 5 As for those whose fate is disbelief, whether you warn them or do not warn them – it is all one for them; they will not believe. (Because their hearts are sealed – see next verse). 6 Allah has sealed up their hearts and ears and a covering has fallen over their eyes, and they have incurred the severest punishment. 7
