لَنْ Never یَّسْتَنْكِفَ will disdain الْمَسِیْحُ the Messiah اَنْ to یَّكُوْنَ be عَبْدًا a slave لِّلّٰهِ of Allah وَ لَا and not الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ the Angels الْمُقَرَّبُوْنَ ؕ the ones who are near (to Allah) وَ مَنْ And whoever یَّسْتَنْكِفْ disdains عَنْ from عِبَادَتِهٖ His worship وَ یَسْتَكْبِرْ and is arrogant فَسَیَحْشُرُهُمْ then He will gather them اِلَیْهِ towards Him جَمِیْعًا all together فَاَمَّا Then as for الَّذِیْنَ those who اٰمَنُوْا believed وَ عَمِلُوا and did الصّٰلِحٰتِ the righteous deeds فَیُوَفِّیْهِمْ then He will give them in full اُجُوْرَهُمْ their reward وَ یَزِیْدُهُمْ and give them more مِّنْ from فَضْلِهٖ ۚ His Bounty وَ اَمَّا And as for الَّذِیْنَ those who اسْتَنْكَفُوْا disdained وَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا and were arrogant فَیُعَذِّبُهُمْ then He will punish them عَذَابًا (with) a punishment اَلِیْمًا ۙ۬ painful وَّ لَا and not یَجِدُوْنَ will they find لَهُمْ for themselves مِّنْ from دُوْنِ besides اللّٰهِ Allah وَلِیًّا any protector وَّ لَا and not نَصِیْرًا any helper یٰۤاَیُّهَا O النَّاسُ mankind قَدْ Surely جَآءَكُمْ has come to you بُرْهَانٌ a convincing proof مِّنْ from رَّبِّكُمْ your Lord وَ اَنْزَلْنَاۤ and We (have) sent down اِلَیْكُمْ to you نُوْرًا a light مُّبِیْنًا clear فَاَمَّا So as for الَّذِیْنَ those who اٰمَنُوْا believed بِاللّٰهِ in Allah وَ اعْتَصَمُوْا and held fast بِهٖ to Him فَسَیُدْخِلُهُمْ then He will admit them فِیْ in رَحْمَةٍ Mercy مِّنْهُ from Himself وَ فَضْلٍ ۙ and Bounty وَّ یَهْدِیْهِمْ and will guide them اِلَیْهِ to Himself صِرَاطًا (on) a way مُّسْتَقِیْمًاؕ straight 4. An-Nisa Page 106 یَسْتَفْتُوْنَكَ ؕ They seek your ruling قُلِ Say اللّٰهُ Allah یُفْتِیْكُمْ gives you a ruling فِی concerning الْكَلٰلَةِ ؕ the Kalala اِنِ if امْرُؤٌا a man هَلَكَ died لَیْسَ (and) not لَهٗ he has وَلَدٌ a child وَّ لَهٗۤ and he has اُخْتٌ a sister فَلَهَا then for her نِصْفُ (is) a half مَا (of) what تَرَكَ ۚ he left وَ هُوَ And he یَرِثُهَاۤ will inherit from her اِنْ if لَّمْ not یَكُنْ is لَّهَا for her وَلَدٌ ؕ a child فَاِنْ But if كَانَتَا there were اثْنَتَیْنِ two females فَلَهُمَا then for them الثُّلُثٰنِ two thirds مِمَّا of what تَرَكَ ؕ he left وَ اِنْ But if كَانُوْۤا they were اِخْوَةً brothers and sisters رِّجَالًا men وَّ نِسَآءً and women فَلِلذَّكَرِ then the male will have مِثْلُ like حَظِّ share الْاُنْثَیَیْنِ ؕ (of) the two females یُبَیِّنُ makes clear اللّٰهُ Allah لَكُمْ to you اَنْ lest تَضِلُّوْا ؕ you go astray وَ اللّٰهُ And Allah بِكُلِّ of every شَیْءٍ thing عَلِیْمٌ۠ (is) All-Knower
172. The Messiah disdains not that he should be a slave of Allah nor do the angels who are nearest to Him. And whoever disdains his worship and is proud, (the time is not far off when) He will gather them all in His presence.
173. Then, to those who believed and performed deeds of righteousness, He will give their rewards in full, adding to them out of His bounty; and to those who were disdainful and proud, He will punish with a grievous punishment. And they will not find, besides Allah, any protecting friend or helper.
174. O mankind ! There has come to you a convincing proof from your Lord282, and We have sent to you a clear light283.
175. So those who will believe in Allah and hold fast to Him, soon will He admit them to mercy and grace from Him, and guide them straight way to Himself 284.
176. They ask you for a fatwa285(legal pronouncement ). Say: Allah directs about kalalah286. If a person dies childless and he has a sister287, she shall have half of his inheritance; and (if the sister dies leaving a brother as the survivor then) the brother shall be her heir288, provided the sister was childless. If there are two sisters, they shall have two-thirds of the inheritance289. And if there are several brothers and sisters, then the share of the male shall be twice that of the female.290 Allah clarifies (His commands) for you so that you may not err. And (remember) Allah has knowledge of all things.
282. Means Quran, which has a style of appeal that is intellectual and argumentative, and from this point of view it is Allah’s argument and proof against human excuses.
283. This is another characteristic of the holy Quran that it distinguishes between Truth and falsehood, and shows the right way of living.
284. That is: In the Hereafter they will gain nearness to God, which is the goal of guidance. The purport of the verse is that those who will believe in Quran and will hold fast to Allah will be successful in achieving their goal, that is Allah, and this is the greatest gift and blessing that they would get.
285. This verse is a supplement to the commands concerning inheritance which were given in the verses at the beginning of the Surah. The queries concerning inheritance were raised in connection with those commands, and their answers have been added as a supplement at the end of the Surah as an explanation.
286. It shows that the query was about the inheritance of kalalah (a person who has no living father or no living child), about which the directions are given in Verse No.12. (For explanation, please see Note No.34)
287. In Verse No. 12, the shares of uterine brothers and sisters were shown. In this verse the shares of full and consanguine brothers and sisters have been shown.
288. If no one from the Quranic sharers is alive, then the brother will have the whole inheritance, and if some one from the Quranic sharers may be alive, e.g. husband, then after giving his share, the remaining inheritance will go to the brother.
289. Same is the direction for more than two sisters. They will be equal sharers in the two third inheritance.
290. The details about the shares of the full and consanguine brothers and sisters may be seen in the Table of Inheritance, pages 239 to 242.
