Overview

About this Surah

Al-Baqarah (the Cow) has been so named from the story of the Cow occurring in this Surah (67-73). It has not, however, been used as a title to indicate the subject of the Surah. It will, therefore, be as wrong to translate the name Al-Baqarah into "The Cow" or "The Heifer" as to translate any English name, say Mr. Baker, Mr. Rice, Mr. Wolf etc., into their equivalents in other languages or vice versa, because this would imply that the Surah dealt with the subject of "The Cow". Many more Surahs of the Quran have been named in the same way because no comprehensive words exist in Arabic (in spite of its richness) to denote the wide scope of the subject discussed in them. As a matter of fact all human languages suffer from the same limitation.

    وَإِلَـٰهُكُمْ إِلَـٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ ۖ لَّا إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الرَّحْمَـٰنُ الرَّحِيمُ

    አምላካችሁም አንድ አምላክ ብቻ ነው፤ ከርሱ በቀር ሌላ አምላክ የለም፡፡ (እርሱ) እጅግ በጣም ርኅሩህ አዛኝ ነው፡፡

  2. Ayah 164

    إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَاخْتِلَافِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَالْفُلْكِ الَّتِي تَجْرِي فِي الْبَحْرِ بِمَا يَنفَعُ النَّاسَ وَمَا أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مِن مَّاءٍ فَأَحْيَا بِهِ الْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا وَبَثَّ فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ وَتَصْرِيفِ الرِّيَاحِ وَالسَّحَابِ الْمُسَخَّرِ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ لَآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ

    ሰማያትንና ምድርን በመፍጠር ሌሊትንና ቀንንም በማተካካት፣ በዚያቸም ሰዎችን በሚጠቅም ነገር (ተጭና) በባህር ላይ በምትንሻለለው ታንኳ፣ አላህም ከሰማይ ባወረደው ውሃና በርሱም ምድርን ከሞተች በኋላ ሕያው በማድረጉ፣ በርሷም ውስጥ ከተንቀሳቃሽ ሁሉ በመበተኑ፣ ነፋሶችንም (በየአግጣጫው) በማገለባበጥ፣ በሰማይና በምድር መካከል በሚነዳውም ደመና ለሚያውቁ ሕዝቦች እርግጠኛ ምልክቶች አሉ፡፡

  3. Ayah 165

    وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن يَتَّخِذُ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ أَندَادًا يُحِبُّونَهُمْ كَحُبِّ اللَّهِ ۖ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَشَدُّ حُبًّا لِّلَّهِ ۗ وَلَوْ يَرَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا إِذْ يَرَوْنَ الْعَذَابَ أَنَّ الْقُوَّةَ لِلَّهِ جَمِيعًا وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعَذَابِ

    ከሰዎችም ከአላህ ሌላ ባለንጣዎችን (ጣዖታትን) አላህን እንደሚወዱ የሚወዷቸው ኾነው የሚይዙ አልሉ፡፡ እነዚያ ያመኑትም አላህን በመውደድ (ከነርሱ) ይበልጥ የበረቱ ናቸው፡፡ እነዚያም የበደሉት ሰዎች ቅጣትን (በትንሣኤ ቀን) ባዩ ጊዜ ኀይል ሁሉ ለአላህ ብቻ መኾኑንና አላህም ቅጣቱ ብርቱ መኾኑን (በአዱኛ ዓለም) ቢያውቁ ኖሮ (ባላንጣዎችን በመያዛቸው በተጸጸቱ ነበር)፡፡

  4. Ayah 166

    إِذْ تَبَرَّأَ الَّذِينَ اتُّبِعُوا مِنَ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوا وَرَأَوُا الْعَذَابَ وَتَقَطَّعَتْ بِهِمُ الْأَسْبَابُ

    እነዚያ አስከታዮቹ ቅጣትን ያዩ ሲኾኑ ከእነዚያ ከተከታዮች በተጥራሩና በእነርሱም (መካከል) ምክንያቶች በተቆረጡ ጊዜ (የሚኾኑትን ባወቁ ኖሮ በተጸጸቱ ነበር)፡፡

  5. Ayah 167

    وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوا لَوْ أَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةً فَنَتَبَرَّأَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تَبَرَّءُوا مِنَّا ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُرِيهِمُ اللَّهُ أَعْمَالَهُمْ حَسَرَاتٍ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ وَمَا هُم بِخَارِجِينَ مِنَ النَّارِ

    እነዚያም የተከተሉት «ለእኛ (ወደ ቅርቢቱ ዓለም) አንዲት ጊዜ መመለስ በኖረችንና ከእኛ እንደተጥራሩ ከእነርሱ በተጥራራን እንመኛለን» ይላሉ፡፡ እንደዚሁ አላህ ሥራዎቻቸውን በነርሱ ላይ ጸጸቶች አድርጎ ያሳያቸዋል፡፡ እነርሱም ከእሳት ወጪዎች አይደሉም፡፡

  6. Ayah 168

    يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ كُلُوا مِمَّا فِي الْأَرْضِ حَلَالًا طَيِّبًا وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ ۚ إِنَّهُ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ

    እናንተ ሰዎች ሆይ! በምድር ካለው ነገር የተፈቀደ ጣፋጭ ሲኾን ብሉ፡፡ የሰይጣንንም እርምጃዎች አትከታተሉ፡፡ እርሱ ለእናንተ ግልጽ ጠላት ነውና፡፡

  7. Ayah 169

    إِنَّمَا يَأْمُرُكُم بِالسُّوءِ وَالْفَحْشَاءِ وَأَن تَقُولُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ

    (እርሱ) የሚያዛችሁ በኃጢኣትና በጸያፍ ነገር በአላህም ላይ የማታውቁትን እንድትናገሩ ብቻ ነው፡፡

About the Quran

The Quran

The Quran is the holy scripture of Islam. Muslims believe that it is the literal word of Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى), revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم) over a period of 23 years. The Quran is composed of 114 Surahs (chapters) and contains 6,236 Ayat (verses). Muslim beliefs and practices are based on the Quran and the Sunnah, the teachings and example of the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم).

The Kaaba in Mecca
A mosque in South America

Meccan Surahs

The Meccan Surahs are the earliest revelations sent down to the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم). They were revealed in Mecca, hence their name. These revelations form the foundation of the Islamic faith and contain guidance for Muslims on how to live their lives. The Meccan Surahs are also notable for their poetic beauty and lyrical prose.

Medinan Surahs

The Medinan Surahs are the later Surahs that, according to Islamic tradition, were revealed in Medina after the Prophet Muhammad's (صلى الله عليه وسلم) hijra from Mecca. They were revealed by Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) when the Muslim community was larger and more developed, as opposed to their minority position in Mecca.
