Translation of Verse 110-123

110. Indeed, We had given Moses the Scripture, but differences arose regarding it. Had it not been for a prior decree from your Lord, ⁴³² their differences would have been settled ˹at once˺. They are truly in alarming doubt about it.

111. And surely your Lord will fully pay all for their deeds. He is certainly All-Aware of what they do.

112. So be steadfast as you are commanded ˹O Prophet˺, along with those who turn ˹in submission to Allah˺ with you. And do not transgress. Surely He is All-Seeing of what you ˹believers˺ do.

113. And do not be inclined to the wrongdoers or you will be touched by the Fire. For then you would have no protectors other than Allah, nor would you be helped.

114. Establish prayer ˹O Prophet˺ at both ends of the day and in the early part of the night. ⁴³³ Surely good deeds wipe out evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful.

115. And be patient! Certainly Allah does not discount the reward of the good- doers.

116. If only there had been among the ˹destroyed˺ peoples before you, ˹O believers,˺ virtuous individuals who forbade corruption in the land-other than the few We had saved ˹from the torment˺. But the wrongdoers ˹only˺ pursued their ˹worldly˺ pleasures, becoming wicked.

117. And your Lord ˹O Prophet˺ would never destroy a society unjustly while its people were acting rightly.

118. Had your Lord so willed, He would have certainly made humanity one single community ˹of believers˺, but they will always ˹choose to˺ differ-

119. except those shown mercy by your Lord- and so He created them ˹to choose freely˺. And so the Word of your Lord will be fulfilled: "I will surely fill up Hell with jinn and humans all together."

120. And We relate to you ˹O Prophet˺ the stories of the messengers to reassure your heart. And there has come to you in this ˹sûrah˺ the truth, a warning ˹to the disbelievers˺, and a reminder to the believers.

121. Say to those who disbelieve, "Persist in your ways; we will certainly persist in ours.

122. And wait! Surely we ˹too˺ are waiting."

123. To Allah ˹alone˺ belongs the knowledge of what is hidden in the heavens and the earth. And to Him all matters are returned. So worship Him and put your trust in Him. And your Lord is never unaware of what you do.

Commentary

432. That He will delay their judgment until the Hereafter.

433. This verse talks about the five daily prayers. The prayers at the two ends of the day are the dawn prayer ( Fajr ) at one end and the afternoon prayers ( Ẓuhr and ' Aṣr ) at the other. Prayers in the early part of the night include the sunset ( Maghrib ) and late evening (' Ishâ ') prayers.
