ALM. ﴾1﴿ This book [which in its entirety is the word of God] without any doubt, is the guidance for God-fearing people. ﴾2﴿ [God fearing people are] Those Who believe in the existence of the unseen [beings and phenomena that man can not perceive with his senses such as microbes, atoms, angles, etc.], worship God [five times a day as established by Islamic laws] and give to charity a part of their income/ provisions [which God has provided for them at first place.] ﴾3﴿ The above mentioned people are those who believe in this book (Qur’an) that I (God) have revealed to you (Mohammad) as well as the (original) Books that I had revealed to the prophets before you [which do not exist any more as they have been tampered with or partially/ totally lost] and firmly believe in the (existence of) Hereafter. ﴾4﴿ The above mentioned people are on the right course (as shown by God) and are [”the real”] successful ones. ﴾5﴿ As far as the disbelievers are concerned, in spite of your (Mohammad’s) warning, they do not care at all and they will never believe [in submission to the will of God.] ﴾6﴿ (In account of their disobedience and disbelief) God seals their minds, their hearing and their eyes and they will be subject to a great punishment. ﴾7﴿ There are (a third group of people known as hypocrites) who (verbally and not from the bottom of their hearts) proclaim that they believe in God and the day of judgment; but they are not true believers. ﴾8﴿ They (hypocrites) think that by a simple declaration (of submitting themselves to the will of God) they can deceive God and the believers; in fact they do not deceive anyone but themselves and simply do not get it. ﴾9﴿ These hypocrites have a disease in their hearts and [as they are not looking for a cure] God intensifies their disease and there is painful doom for them in store in account of their lies (attitude.) ﴾10﴿
