Verses with سكارى

Verses 1–2 of 2

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    O ye who believe! Approach not prayers With a mind befogged, Until ye can understand All that ye say, Nor in a state Of ceremonial impurity (Except when travelling on the road), Until after washing Your whole body. If ye are ill, Or on a journey, Or one of you cometh From offices of nature, Or ye have been In contact with women, And ye find no water, Then take for yourselves Clean sand or earth, And rub therewith Your faces and hands. For God doth blot out sins And forgive again and again.

    Surah An-Nisa, verse 4:43
  2. Each word opens its meaning.

    The Day ye shall see it, Every mother giving suck Shall forget her suckling-babe, And every pregnant female Shall drop her load (unformed): Thou shalt see mankind As in a drunken riot, Yet not drunk: but dreadful Will be the Wrath of God.

    Surah Al-Hajj, verse 22:2
