Surah Al-Maidah (5:48) Quran.com
وَلَٰكِنْ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ فِي مَا آتَاكُمْ فَاسْتَبِقُوا الْخَيْرَاتِ And We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. To each of you We prescribed a law and a method. Had Allah willed, He would have made you one nation [united in religion], but [He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so race to [all that is] good. To Allah is your return all together, and He will [then] inform you concerning that over which you used to differ. (Sahih International)

وَلَوْ نَشَاءُ لَطَمَسْنَا عَلَىٰ أَعْيُنِهِمْ فَاسْتَبَقُوا الصِّرَاطَ And if We willed, We could have obliterated their eyes, and they would race to [find] the path, and how could they see? (Sahih International)

She said, "What is the recompense of one who intended evil for your wife but that he be imprisoned or a painful punishment?" (Sahih International)

وَلِكُلٍّ وِجْهَةٌ هُوَ مُوَلِّيهَا فَاسْتَبِقُوا الْخَيْرَاتِ For each [religious following] is a direction toward which it faces. So race to [all that is] good. Wherever you may be, Allah will bring you forth [for judgement] all together. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent. (Sahih International)

Disclaimer: Audio Pronunciation Guide Please note that the audio pronunciations provided within the Iqraa app are based directly on the Quranic articulation of words. For instance, if the word 'حُبّ' (hubb) is pronounced as 'حُبٌّ' (hubbun) within the context of the Quran, our audio will reflect this specific pronunciation. It's important to understand that while 'hubb' is the general term, the variations you hear in our audio are intentional, aiming to mirror the exact pronunciation as it appears in the Quran. This approach ensures that learners get an authentic experience of Quranic Arabic pronunciation, enhancing their understanding and connection to the holy text.
