This surah contains a call for Hajj to Mecca.


God produced the body and how it is conceived in order to demonstrate ˹God's power˺ to you


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">˹They will be told,˺ “This is ˹the reward˺ for what your hands have done. And Allah is never unjust to ˹His˺ creation.”<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

10 / [As a form of more satisfaction? - to have rewards based on what you did?]


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">They call besides Allah what can neither harm nor benefit them. That is ˹truly˺ the farthest one can stray.</span>

<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">They invoke those whose worship leads to harm, not benefit. What an evil patron and what an evil associate!<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

12


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">In hell the disbelievers will wear garments of Fire with boiling water poured on their heads and maces of iron to be wacked on them.</span>

<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">Indeed, those who persist in disbelief and hinder ˹others˺ from the Way of Allah and from the Sacred Mosque (directly near Kabbha in Mecca)—which We have appointed for all people, residents and visitors alike—along with whoever intends to deviate by doing wrong in it,2 We will cause them to taste a painful punishment.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

The disbelievers will suffer in a humiliating matter

All people are invited to visit the Mecca


[Prepare generous and the best food for pilgrims]

[Strictly shun the words of falsehood / lying]

[Be upright when praising Allah / with a serious level of concentration?]


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">Those whose hearts tremble at the remembrance of Allah, who patiently endure whatever may befall them, and who establish prayer and donate from what We have provided for them,</span>

<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">We have made sacrificial camels ˹and cattle˺ among the symbols of Allah, in which there is ˹much˺ good for you. So pronounce the Name of Allah over them when they are lined up ˹for sacrifice˺. Once they have fallen ˹lifeless˺ on their sides, you may eat from their meat, and feed the needy—those who do not beg, and those who do. In this way We have subjected these ˹animals˺ to you so that you may be grateful.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

35 / Once your on the good path you may be entitled to some entitlements.


[The amount of devotional arts and rituals (effort with well-prescribed-technique sometimes also referred to as "''pakand''" in Sikh culture / actual piety) you do is stored / transferred to food, making it a little more beneficial] 


[Be on the lookout for not accidently being ungrateful or deceitful]


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">Permission ˹to fight back˺ is ˹hereby˺ granted to those being fought,  for they have been wronged.(maybe only applying towards Meccan pilgrims that were abused) And Allah is truly Most Capable of helping them ˹prevail˺.</span>

<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">˹They are˺ those who, if established in the land by Us, would perform prayer, pay alms-tax, encourage what is good, and forbid what is evil. And with Allah rests the outcome of all affairs.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

39 / You must be extremely righteous to do so?


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">They challenge you ˹O Prophet˺ to hasten the torment. And Allah will never fail in His promise. But a day with your Lord is indeed like a thousand years by your counting.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

47 / '''Do worship God whole heartidly, His benefits cannot be underlined enough.'''


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">Whenever We sent a messenger or a prophet before you ˹O Prophet˺ and he recited ˹Our revelations˺, Satan would influence ˹people’s understanding of˺ his recitation. But ˹eventually˺ Allah would eliminate Satan’s influence. Then Allah would ˹firmly˺ establish His revelations. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

52


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">˹This is˺ also so that those gifted with knowledge would know that this ˹revelation˺ is the truth from your Lord, so they have faith in it, and so their hearts would submit humbly to it. And Allah surely guides the believers to the Straight Path.</span>


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">That is so. And whoever retaliates in equivalence to the injury they have received, and then are wronged ˹again˺, Allah will certainly help them. Surely Allah is Ever-Pardoning, All-Forgiving.</span>

<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">That is because Allah causes the night to merge into the day, and the day into the night. Indeed, Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.</span>

<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">That is because Allah ˹alone˺ is the Truth and what they invoke besides Him is falsehood, and Allah ˹alone˺ is truly the Most High, All-Great.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

60 / The righteousness provided by Alha is super just


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">For every community We appointed a code of life to follow. So do not let them dispute with you ˹O Prophet˺ in this matter. And invite ˹all˺ to your Lord, for you are truly on the Right Guidance.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

67 / [Be cautious of / Follow the code native to your land as well?] 


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">Whenever Our clear revelations are recited to them, you ˹O Prophet˺ recognize rage on the faces of the disbelievers, as if they are going to snap at those who recite Our revelations to them. Say, “Shall I inform you of something far more enraging than that? ˹It is˺ the Fire with which Allah has threatened those who disbelieve. What an evil destination!”<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

72


[People's hearts are so hardened that until Satan's judgment they
will oppose such strongly and that is the only way for their purification?]


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">O believers! Bow down, prostrate yourselves, worship your Lord, and do ˹what is˺ good so that you may be successful.<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>

77


<span style="font-size:1.3em;font-style:italic">Strive for ˹the cause of˺ Allah in the way He deserves, for ˹it is˺ He ˹Who˺ has chosen you, and laid upon you no hardship in the religion—the way of your forefather Abraham. ˹It is Allah˺ Who named you ‘the ones who submit’1 ˹in the˺ earlier ˹Scriptures˺ and in this ˹Quran˺, so that the Messenger may be a witness over you, and that you may be witnesses over humanity. So establish prayer, pay alms-tax, and hold fast to Allah. He ˹alone˺ is your Guardian. What an excellent Guardian, and what an excellent Helper!<span title="Dr. Mustafa Khattab, (circa 2015) the Clear Quran.">¹</span></span>
