4.41 . But how ( will it be with them ) when we bring of every people a witness , and We bring thee ( O Muhammad ) a witness against these?

4.42 . On that day those who disbelieved and disobeyed the messenger will wish that they were level with the ground , and they can hide no fact from Allah .

4.43 . O ye who believe! Draw not near unto prayer when ye are drunken , till ye know that which ye utter , nor when ye are polluted , save when journeying upon the road , till ye have bathed . And if ye be ill , or on a journey , or one of you cometh from the closet , or ye have touched women , and ye and not water , than go to high clean soil and rub your faces and your hands ( therewith ) . Lo! Allah is Benign , Forgiving .

4.44 . Seest thou not those unto whom a portion of the Scripture hath been given , how they purchase error , and seek to make you ( Muslims ) err from the right way?

4.45 . Allah knoweth best ( who are ) your enemies . Allah is sufficient as a Friend , and Allah is sufficient as a Helper .

4.46 . Some of those who are Jews change words from their context and say : "We hear and disobey ; hear thou as one who heareth not" and "Listen to us!" distorting with their tongues and slandering religion . If they had said : "We hear and we obey ; hear thou , and look at us" it had been better for them , and more upright . But Allah hath cursed them for their disbelief , so they believe not , save a few .

4.47 . O ye unto whom the Scripture hath been given! Believe in what We have revealed concerning that which ye possess , before We destroy countenances so as to confound them , or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath breakers ( of old time ) . The commandment of Allah is always executed .

4.48 . Lo! Allah forgiveth not that a partner should be ascribed unto Him . He forgiveth ( all ) save that to whom He will . Whoso ascribeth partners to Allah , he hath indeed invented a tremendous sin .

4.49 . Hast thou not seen those who praise themselves for purity? Nay , Allah purifieth whom He will , and they will not be wronged even the hair upon a date stone .

4.50 . See , how they invent lies about Allah! That of itself is flagrant sin .

4.51 . Hast thou not seen those unto whom a portion of the Scripture hath been given , how they believe in idols and false deities , and bow they say of those ( idolaters ) who disbelieve : "These are more rightly guided than those who believe?"

4.52 . Those are they whom Allah hath cursed , and he whom Allah hath cursed , thou ( O Muhammad ) wilt find for him no helper .

4.53 . Or have they even a share in the Sovereignty? Then in that case , they would not give mankind even the speck on a date stone .

4.54 . Or are they jealous of mankind because of that which Allah of His bounty hath bestowed upon them? For We bestowed upon the house of Abraham ( of old ) the Scripture and Wisdom , and We bestowed on them a mighty kingdom .

4.55 . And of them were ( some ) who believed therein and of them were ( some ) who disbelieved therein . Hell is sufficient for ( their ) burning .

4.56 . Lo! Those who disbelieve Our revelations , We shall expose them to the Fire . As often as their skins are consumed We shall exchange them for fresh skins that they may taste the torment . Lo! Allah is ever Mighty , Wise .

4.57 . And as for those who believe and do good works , We shall make them enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow to dwell therein for ever ; there for them are pure companions and We shall make them enter plenteous shade .

4.58 . Lo! Allah commandeth you that ye restore deposits to their owners , and , if ye judge between mankind , that ye judge justly . Lo! comely is this which Allah admonisheth you . Lo! Allah is ever Hearer , Seer .

4.59 . O ye who believe! Obey Allah , and obey the messenger and those of you who are in authority ; and if ye have a dispute concerning any matter , refer it to Allah and the messenger if ye are ( in truth ) believers in Allah and the Last Day . That is better and more seemly in the end .

4.60 . Hast thou not seen those who pretend that they believe in that which is revealed unto thee and that which was revealed before thee , how they would go for judgment ( in their disputes ) to false deities when they have been ordered to abjure them? Satan would mislead them far astray .
