Surah 2. Al-Baqara, Ayah 203
| ۞ وَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ فِي أَيَّامٍ مَعْدُودَاتٍ ۚ فَمَنْ تَعَجَّلَ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ فَلَا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ وَمَنْ تَأَخَّرَ فَلَا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ ۚ لِمَنِ اتَّقَىٰ ۗ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ |

| Pickthall | : | Remember Allah through the appointed days. Then whoso hasteneth (his departure) by two days, it is no sin for him, and whoso delayeth, it is no sin for him; that is for him who wardeth off (evil). Be careful of your duty to Allah, and know that unto Him ye will be gathered. |
| Asad | : | And bear God in mind during the appointed days;186 but he who hurries away within two days shall incur no sin, and he who tarries longer shall incur no sin, provided that he is conscious of God. Hence, remain conscious of God, and know that unto Him you shall be gathered. |
| Malik | : | Celebrate the praises of Allah during these appointed days. If anyone hastens to leave Mina after two days or stays there a day longer there is no blame on him provided he spends these days in piety. Fear Allah and remember that you will surely be gathered before Him. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Celebrate the praises of Allah during the Appointed Days but if anyone hastens to leave in two days there is no blame on him and if anyone stays on there is no blame on him if his aim is to do right. Then fear Allah and know that ye will surely be gathered unto Him. 226 |
Note - 186These are the days following the "Festival of Sacrifices"
('id al-adha'), which takes place on the 10th of Dhu
'l-Hijjah. The pilgrims are obliged to spend at least two
of these days in the valley of Mina, about half-way
between 'Arafat and Mecca.
|
Note - 226The Appointed Days: the three days after the tenth, when
the pilgrims stay on in the Valley of Mina for prayer and
praise. They are the days of Tashriq (see ii. 200, n.
223). It is optional for pilgrims to leave on the second
or third day.
