2.211 . Ask of the Children of Israel how many a clear revelation We gave them! He who altereth the grace of Allah after it hath come unto him ( for him ) , lo! Allah is severe in punishment .
2.
2.212 . Beautified is the life of the world for those who disbelieve ; they make a jest of the believers . But those who keep their duty to Allah will be above them on the Day of Resurrection . Allah giveth without stint to whom He will .
2.
2.213 . Mankind were one community , and Allah sent ( unto them ) Prophets as bearers of good tidings and as warners , and revealed therewith the Scripture with the truth that it might judge between mankind concerning that wherein they differed . And only those unto whom ( the Scripture ) was given differed concerning it , after clear proofs had come unto them , through hatred one of another . And Allah by His will guided those w believe unto the truth of that concerning which they differed . Allah guideth whom He will unto a straight path
2.
2.214 . Or think ye that ye will enter Paradise while yet there hath not come unto you the like of ( that which came to ) those who passed away before you? Affliction and adversity befell them , they were shaken as with earthquake , till the messenger ( of Allah ) and those who believed along with him said : When cometh Allah ' s help? Now surely Allah ' s help is nigh .
2.
2.215 . They ask thee , ( O Muhammad ) , what they shall spend . Say : That which ye spend for good ( must go ) to parents and near kindred and orphans and the needy and the wayfarer . And whatsoever good ye do , lo! Allah is Aware of it .
2.
2.216 . Warfare is ordained for you , though it is hateful unto you ; but it may happen that ye hate a thing which is good for you , and it may happen that ye love a thing which is bad for you . Allah knoweth , ye know not .
2.
2.217 . They question thee ( O Muhammad ) with regard to warfare in the sacred month . Say : Warfare therein is a great ( transgression ) , but to turn ( men ) from the way of Allah , and to disbelieve in Him and in the Inviolable Place of Worship , and to expel his people thence , is a greater with Allah ; for persecution is worse than killing . And they will not cease from fighting against you till they have made you renegades from your religion , if they can . And whoso becometh a renegade and dieth in his disbelief : such are they whose works have fallen both in the world and the Hereafter . Such are rightful owners of the Fire : they will abide there in .
2.
2.218 . Lo! those who believe , and those who emigrate ( to escape the persecution ) and strive in the way of Allah , these have hope of Allah ' s mercy . Allah is Forgiving , Merciful .
2.
2.219 . They question thee about strong drink and games of chance . Say : In both is great sin , and ( some ) utility for men ; but the sin of them is greater than their usefulness . And they ask thee what they ought to spend . Say : That which is superfluous . Thus Allah maketh plain to you ( His ) revelations , that haply ye may reflect
2.
2.220 . Upon the world and the Hereafter . And they question thee concerning orphans . Say : To improve their lot is best . And if ye mingle your affairs with theirs , then ( they are ) your brothers . Allah knoweth him who spoileth from him who improveth . Had Allah willed He could have overburdened you . Allah is Mighty , Wise .
