قل تعالوا اتل ما حرم ربكم عليكم الا تشركوا به شيئا وبالوالدين احسانا ولا تقتلوا اولادكم من املاق نحن نرزقكم واياهم ولا تقربوا الفواحش ما ظهر منها وما بطن ولا تقتلوا النفس التي حرم الله الا بالحق ذلكم وصاكم به لعلكم تعقلون

Say: "Come, I will rehearse What God hath (really) Prohibited you from": join not Anything as equal with Him; Be good to your parents; Kill not your children On a plea of want;—We Provide sustenance for you And for them;—come not Nigh to shameful deeds, Whether open or secret; Take not life, which God Hath made sacred, except By way of justice and law: Thus doth He command you, That ye may learn wisdom.
