Meaning: the book · Also translated as: a Book, Book
الكتب: ضم أديم إلى أديم بالخياطة، يقال: كتبت السقاء، وكتبت البغلة: جمعت بين شفريها بحلقة، وفي التعارف ضم الحروف بعضها إلى بعض بالخط، وقد يقال ذلك للمضموم بعضها إلى بعض باللفظ، فالأصل في الكتابة: النظم بالخط لكن يستعار كل واحد للآخر، ولهذا سمي كلام الله- وإن لم يكتب- كتابا كقوله: الم ذلك الكتاب
قوله تعالى: ﴿ألم ذلك الكتاب﴾ [البقرة: 1 - 2] الكتاب -في الأصل- مصدر كتب أي جمع. قال تعالى: ﴿كتاب الله عليكم﴾ [النساء: 24] أي: كتب ذلك عليكم كتابا كقوله: ﴿صنع الله﴾ [النمل: 88] ثم يطلق على المكتوب كقولهم: خلق الله، وضرب الأمير، وأنشد: [من الطويل]
Verses 1–20 of 236
This is the Book; In it is guidance sure, without doubt, To those who fear God;
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:2Do ye enjoin right conduct On the people, and forget (To practise it) yourselves, And yet ye study the Scripture? Will ye not understand?
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:44And remember We gave Moses the Scripture and the Criterion (Between right and wrong): there was A chance for you to be guided aright.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:53And there are among them Illiterates, who know not the Book, But (see therein their own) desires, And they do nothing but conjecture.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:78Then woe to those who write The Book with their own hands, And then say: "This is from God," To traffic with it For a miserable price!— Woe to them for what their hands Do write, and for the gain They make thereby.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:79After this it is ye, the same people, Who slay among yourselves, And banish a party of you From their homes; assist (Their enemies) against them, In guilt and rancour; And if they come to you As captives, ye ransom them, Though it was not lawful For you to banish them. Then is it only a part of the Book That ye believe in, And do ye reject the rest? But what is the reward for those Among you who behave like this But disgrace in this life?— And on the Day of Judgment They shall be consigned To the most grievous penalty. For God is not unmindful Of what ye do.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:85We gave Moses the Book And followed him up With a succession of Apostles; We gave Jesus the son of Mary Clear (Signs) and strengthened him With the holy spirit. Is it That whenever there comes to you An Apostle with what ye Yourselves desire not, ye are Puffed up with pride?— Some ye called impostors, And others ye slay!
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:87And when there comes to them A Book from God, confirming What is with them,—although From of old they had prayed For victory against those Without Faith,—when there comes. To them that which they (Should) have recognized, They refuse to believe in it But the curse of God Is on those without Faith.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:89And when there came to them An Apostle from God, Confirming what was with them, A party of the People of the Book Threw away the Book of God Behind their backs, As if (it had been something) They did not know!
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:101It is never the wish Of those without Faith Among the People of the Book, Nor of the Pagans, That anything good Should come down to you From your Lord. But God will choose For His special Mercy Whom He will—for God is Lord of grace abounding.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:105Quite a number of the People Of the Book wish they could Turn you (people) back To infidelity after ye have believed, From selfish envy, After the Truth hath become Manifest unto them: But forgive and overlook, Till God accomplish His purpose; for God Hath power over all things.'
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:109The Jews say: "The Christians Have naught (to stand) upon; And the Christians say: "The Jews have naught (To stand) upon." Yet they (Profess to) study the (same) Book. Like unto their word Is what those say who know not; But God will judge Between them in their quarrel On the Day of Judgment.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:113Those to whom We have sent The Book study it as it Should be studied: they are The ones that believe therein: Those who reject faith therein,— The loss is their own.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:121"Our Lord! send amongst them An Apostle of their own, Who shall rehearse Thy Signs To them and instruct them In Scripture and Wisdom, And sanctify them: For Thou art the Exalted in Might, The Wise."
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:129We see the turning Of thy face (for guidance) To the heavens: now Shall We turn thee To a Qibla that shall Please thee. Turn then Thy face in the direction Of the sacred Mosque: Wherever ye are, turn Your faces in that direction. The people of the Book Know well that that is The truth from their Lord. Nor is God unmindful Of what they do.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:144Even if thou wert to bring To the people of the Book All the Signs (together), They would not follow Thy Qibla; nor art thou Going to follow their Qibla; Nor indeed will they follow Each other's Qibla. If thou After the knowledge hath reached thee, Wert to follow their (vain) Desires,—then wert thou Indeed (clearly) in the wrong.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:145The people of the Book Know this as they know Their own sons; but some Of them conceal the truth Which they themselves know.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:146A similar (favour Have ye already received) In that We have sent Among you an Apostle Of your own, rehearsing to you Our Signs, and sanctifying You, and instructing you In Scripture and Wisdom, And in new Knowledge.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:151Those who conceal The clear (Signs) We have Sent down, and the Guidance, After We have made it Clear for the People In the Book,—on them Shall be God's curse, And the curse of those Entitled to curse,—
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:159Those who conceal God's revelations in the Book, And purchase for them A miserable profit,— They swallow into themselves Naught but Fire; God will not address them On the Day of Resurrection, Nor purify them: Grievous will be Their Penalty.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:174
