Translation of Verse 120-128

120. Indeed, Abraham was a model of excellence: devoted to Allah, ˹perfectly˺ upright-not a polytheist-

121. ˹utterly˺ grateful for Allah's favours. ˹So˺ He chose him and guided him to the Straight Path.

122. We blessed him with all goodness in this world, 514 and in the Hereafter he will certainly be among the righteous.

123. Then We revealed to you ˹O Prophet, saying˺: "Follow the faith of Abraham, the upright, who was not one of the polytheists."

124. ˹Honouring˺ the Sabbath was ordained only for those who disputed about Abraham. 515 And surely your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Judgment regarding their disputes.

125. Invite ˹all˺ to the Way of your Lord with wisdom and kind advice, and only debate with them in the best manner. Surely your Lord ˹alone˺ knows best who has strayed from His Way and who is ˹rightly˺ guided.

126. If you retaliate, then let it be equivalent to what you have suffered. But if you patiently endure, it is certainly best for those who are patient.

127. Be patient ˹O Prophet˺, for your patience is only with Allah's help. Do not grieve over those ˹who disbelieve˺, nor be distressed by their schemes.

128. Surely Allah is with those who shun evil and who do good ˹deeds˺.


Commentary

514. i.e., honourable mention and a righteous family.

515. This verse refers to the Jews who claimed that Abraham was Jewish. See 3:65-68.
