Surah 2. Al-Baqara, Ayah 163
| وَإِلَٰهُكُمْ إِلَٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ ۖ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الرَّحْمَٰنُ الرَّحِيمُ |
| Transliteration | : | wa- 'ilaah -kum 'ilaah waah.id laa 'ilaah 'illaa huwa ar- rah.maan ar- rah.em |
| Pickthall | : | Your God is One God; there is no God save Him, the Beneficent, the Merciful. |
| Asad | : | AND YOUR GOD is the One God: there is no deity save Him, the Most Gracious, the Dispenser of Grace. |
| Malik | : | Your God is one God; there is no one worthy of worship except Him, the Compassionate, the Merciful. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | And your Allah is one Allah; there is no god but He Most Gracious Most Merciful. 165 |
Note - 165Where the terrible consequences of Evil, i.e., the
rejection of God, are mentioned, there is always stress
laid on God's attributes of Grace and Mercy. In this case
Unity is also stressed, because we have just been told
about the Qibla symbol of unity and are about to pass the
theme of unity in diversity, in Nature and in the social
laws of human society.
