Surah 57. Al-Hadid, Ayah 19
| وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرُسُلِهِ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الصِّدِّيقُونَ ۖ وَالشُّهَدَاءُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ وَنُورُهُمْ ۖ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا أُولَٰئِكَ أَصْحَابُ الْجَحِيمِ |
| Transliteration | : | wa- 'alladhena 'aamano bi- 'allaah wa- rusul -hi 'olaa'ika hum as.- s.iddeqon wa- ash- shuhadaa' cinda rabb -him la- -hum 'ajr -hum wa- nor -hum wa- 'alladhena kafaro wa- kadhdhabo bi- 'aayaat -naa 'olaa'ika as.h.aab al- jah.em |
| Pickthall | : | And those who believe in Allah and His messengers, they are the loyal; and the martyrs are with their Lord; they have their reward and their light; while as for those who disbelieve and deny Our revelations, they are owners of hell fire. |
| Asad | : | For, they who have attained to faith in God and His Apostle - it is they, they who uphold the truth, and they who bear witness [thereto] before God:28 [and so] they shall have their reward and their light! But as for those who are bent on denying the truth and on giving the lie to Our messages - it is they who are destined for the blazing fire! |
| Malik | : | Those who believe in Allah and His Rasool, they are the truthful and the true witnesses in the sight of their Rabb; they shall have their reward and their light. But those who disbelieve and reject Our revelations; they shall be the inmates of hellfire. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | And those who believe in Allah and His apostles they are the Sincere (Lovers of truth) and the witnesses (who testify) in the eyes of their Lord: they shall have their Reward and their Light but those who reject Allah and deny Our Signs they are the Companions of Hell-Fire. 5299 5300 5301 |
Note - 28I.e., by their readiness for any sacrifice.

Note - 5299Cf. iv. 69, and n. 586. The four categories there
mentioned as constituting the beautiful Company of Faith
are: the Prophets who teach, the Sincere Lovers of Truth,
the Martyrs, and the Righteous who do good. Of these, the
prophets or messengers have already been mentioned in
this verse. The Righteous who do good are mentioned as
the men and women given over to deeds of charity in verse
18.
|
Note - 5300The Martyrs (witnesses) are all those who carry the
Banner of Truth against all odds and in all positions of
danger, whether by pen or speech, or deed or counsel.
|
Note - 5301Note that these two are specially high degrees in the
Hereafter, just short of Prophethood. For they have not
only their reward in the Hereafter, like those who
practise charity (verse 18 above), but they themselves
become sources of light and leading.
