Talal Itani· published 2012
Permitted for you is intercourse with your wives on the night of the fast. They are a garment for you, and you are a garment for them. God knows that you used to betray yourselves, but He turned to you and pardoned you. So approach them now, and seek what God has ordained for you, and eat and drink until the white streak of dawn can be distinguished from the black streak. Then complete the fast until nightfall. But do not approach them while you are in retreat at the mosques. These are the limits of God, so do not come near them. God thus clarifies His revelations to the people, that they may attainpiety.

It is made lawful for you to go in unto your wives on the night of the fast. They are raiment for you and ye are raiment for them. Allah is Aware that ye were deceiving yourselves in this respect and He hath turned in mercy toward you and relieved you. So hold intercourse with them and seek that which Allah hath ordained for you, and eat and drink until the white thread becomethdistinct to you from the black thread of the dawn. Then strictly observe the fast till nightfall and touch them not, but be at your devotions in the mosques. These are the limits imposed by Allah, so approach them not. Thus Allahexpoundeth His revelation to mankind that they may ward off (evil)

Lawful for you on the night of the fast is commerce with your wives; they are a garment unto you, and ye a garment unto them. God knows that ye did defraud yourselves, wherefore He has turned towards you and forgiven you; so now go in unto them and crave what God has prescribed for you, and eat and drink until a white thread can be distinguished by you from a black one at the dawn. Then fulfil the fast until the night, and go not in unto them, and ye at your devotions in the mosques the while. These are the bounds that God has set, so draw not near thereto. Thus does God makemanifest His signs to men, that haply they may fear

You are allowed on the night of the fast to approach your wives: they are your garment and ye are their garment. God knoweth that ye defraud yourselves therein, so He turneth unto you and forgiveth you! Now, therefore, go in unto them with full desire for that which God hath ordained for you; and eat and drink until ye can discern a white thread from a black thread by the daybreak: then fast strictly till night, and go not in unto them, but ratherpass the time in the Mosques. These are the bounds set up by God: therefore come not near them. Thus God maketh his signs clear to men that they may fear Him

Tashmë ju është lejuar që, gjatë netëve të agjërimit, të keni marrëdhënie intime me bashkëshortet tuaja. Ato janë prehje për ju dhe ju jeni prehje për to. Allahu e ka ditur se ju po e mashtronit vetveten, andaj jua pranoi pendimin dhe jua fali gabimin. Tash e tutje bëni marrëdhënie me to dhe kërkoni atë që jua ka caktuar Allahu. Hani e pini derisa të dallohet fija e bardhë (bardhësia) e agimit nga fija e zezë (errësira e natës), pastaj plotësojeni agjërimin deri në mbrëmje.

সিয়ামের রাতে তোমাদের জন্য স্ত্রী সহবাস বৈধ করা হয়েছে। তারা তোমাদের পোষাকস্বরূপ এবং তোমরাও তাদের পোষাকস্বরূপ। আল্লাহ জানেন যে, তোমরা নিজেরা নিজেদের প্রতি খিয়ানত করছিলে। সুতরাং তিনি তোমাদের তাওবা কবুল করেছেন এবং তোমাদের অপরাধ ক্ষমা করে দিয়েছেন। কাজেই তোমরা এখন তাদের সাথে মিলিত হতে পারো এবং আল্লাহ যা তোমাদের জন্য নির্ধারণ করেছেন তা কামনা করো। আর তোমরা পানাহার করো যতক্ষণ না রাতের কালোরেখা থেকে উষার সাদা রেখা স্পষ্টরূপে তোমাদের নিকট প্রকাশ না হয়।(২৫) তারপর রাতের আগমন পর্যন্ত সিয়াম পূর্ণ করো। আর তোমরা মসজিদে ই‘তিকাফরত অবস্থায় স্ত্রীদের সাথে সহবাস করো না। এগুলো আল্লাহর সীমারেখা। কাজেই এগুলোর নিকটবতী হয়ো না। এভাবে আল্লাহ তাঁর আয়াতসমূহ মানুষদের জন্য সুস্পষ্টভাবে বর্ণনা করন, যাতে তারা তাকওয়ার অধিকারী হতে পারে।

Erlaubt wurde euch, in der Nacht des Fasten(monat)s den Beischlaf mit euren Frauen auszuüben; sie sind euch ein Kleid, und ihr seid ihnen ein Kleid. Allah weiß, dass ihr euch selbst (immer wieder) betrogen habt, und so hat Er eure Reue angenommen und euch verziehen. Von jetzt an verkehrt mit ihnen und trachtet nach dem, was Allah für euch (vor)geschrieben hat. Und esst und trinkt, bis sich für euch der weiße vom schwarzen Faden der Morgendämmerung (klar) unterscheidet. Alsdann vollzieht das Fasten bis zur Nacht! Und verkehrt nicht mit ihnen, während ihr euch (zum I'tikaf) in die Moscheen zurückgezogen habt! Dies sind Allahs Grenzen, so kommt ihnen nicht zu nahe!

Επιτρέπεται για σας τη νύχτα (των ημερών) της νηστείας να πλησιάζετε τις συζύγους σας (για σεξουαλική επαφή). Οι οποίες είναι ένα κάλυμμα για σας (και προφύλαξη από τις απαγορευμένες σχέσεις), και εσείς είστε το δικό τους κάλυμμα. Ο Αλλάχ γνωρίζει ότι εξαπατούσατε τον εαυτό σας (πέφτοντας σ' αυτό που σας απαγόρεψε) (επειδή στην αρχή κατά τον μήνα Ραμαζανιού, αν κοιμόταν κανείς και ξυπνούσε πριν την αυγή, ήταν απαγορευμένο το να φάει ή να έχει σεξουαλική επαφή με τη σύζυγό του, μα κάποιοι το έκαναν είτε κατά λάθος είτε όχι), έτσι αποδέχτηκε τη μεταμέλειά σας και σας συγχώρεσε. Τώρα, λοιπόν, μπορείτε να έχετε (σεξουαλική) επαφή μαζί τους (κατά τις νύχτες του Ραμαζανιού) και να επιζητάτε αυτό που ο Αλλάχ όρισε για σας (από παιδιά). Και να τρώτε και να πίνετε μέχρι να φανεί σ’ εσάς το λευκό νήμα (φως) της αυγής από το μαύρο νήμα (σκοτάδι της νύχτας). Έπειτα να ολοκληρώνετε τη νηστεία μέχρι να πέσει η νύχτα (η δύση του ηλίου). Και όσο είστε σε κατάσταση Ι‘τικάφ (αφιερώνοντας τον εαυτό σας στη λατρεία για κάποιο χρονικό διάστημα) στα τζαμιά (και βγείτε από τα τζαμιά πηγαίνοντας σπίτια σας για κάποια ανάγκη, μετά από την οποία θα επιστρέψετε ξανά στα τζαμιά), μην τις πλησιάζετε (τις συζύγους σας σεξουαλικά, επειδή αυτό ακυρώνει την κατάσταση Ι‘τικάφ). Αυτά είναι τα όρια που τέθηκαν από τον Αλλάχ (που διαχωρίζουν τις επιτρεπτές από τις απαγορευμένες πράξεις), έτσι να μην τα πλησιάζετε (ώστε να μην πέσετε στις απαγορευμένες πράξεις). Έτσι ο Αλλάχ διευκρινίζει τα Εδάφια (και τα σημεία) Του στους ανθρώπους, μήπως και φυλαχθούν (από την τιμωρία Του μέσω της υπακοής των εντολών Tου).

E mangiate e bevete finché è possibile distinguere il giorno dalla notte nella luce dell’alba. Poi completate il digiuno fino a notte, e non le toccate mentre siete in ritiro nelle moschee: quelli sono i termini di Allāh: non li trasgredite!

187. Leistina jums turėti intymius santykius su savo žmonomis As-Saum (pasninko) naktį. Jos yra Libas [t. y. kūno apdangalas arba priedanga arba Sakan (t. y. jūs mėgaujatės gyvenimu su jomis – kaip sakoma ajoje 7:189)] jums ir jūs esate tas pats joms. Allahas žino, kad jūs apgaudinėdavote save, taigi Jis atsigręžė į jus (priėmė jūsų atgailą) ir atleido jums. Taigi dabar turėkite intymius santykius su jomis ir siekite to, ką Allahas nulėmė jums (palikuonių), ir valgykite bei gerkite iki baltą aušros giją (šviesą) galėsite atskirti nuo juodosios gijos (nakties tamsos). Tada tęskite savo Saum (pasninką) iki sutemos. Ir neturėkite intymių santykių su jomis (savo žmonomis), būdami Itikaf (t. y. atsiriboję nuo žemiškųjų reikalų maldoms) mečetėse. Yra Allaho (nustatytos) ribos, taigi nesiartinkite prie jų.

Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation,
not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading.
Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil
Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the
Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the

Talal Itani2012 Ramadan is the month in which the Quran was revealed. Guidance for humanity, and clear portents of guidance, and the Criterion. Whoever of you witnesses the month, shall fast it. But whoever is sick, or on a journey, then a number of other days. God desires ease for you, and does not desire hardship for you, that you may complete the number, and celebrate God for having guided you, so that you may be thankful.
Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for mankind, and clear proofs of the guidance, and the Criterion (of right and wrong). And whosoever of you is present, let him fast the month, and whosoever of you is sick or on a journey, (let him fast the same) number of other days. Allah desireth for you ease; He desireth not hardship for you; and (He desireth) that ye should complete the period, and that ye should magnify Allah for having guided you, and that peradventure ye may be thankful
Edward Henry Palmer1880 The month of Ramadhan, wherein was revealed the Koran, for a guidance to men, and for manifestations of guidance, and for a Discrimination. And he amongst you who beholds this month then let him fast it; but he who is sick or on a journey, then another number of days;- God desires for you what is easy, and desires not for you what is difficult,- that ye may complete the number, and say, 'Great is God,' for that He has guided you; haply ye may give thanks
John Medows Rodwell1861 As to the month Ramadhan in which the Koran was sent down to be man's guidance, and an explanation of that guidance, and of that illumination, as soon as any one of you observeth the moon, let him set about the fast; but he who is sick, or upon a journey, shall fast a like number of other days. God wisheth you ease, but wisheth not your discomfort, and that you fulfil the number of days, and that you glorify God for his guidance, and that you be thankful
George Sale1734 The month of Ramadan shall ye fast, in which the Koran was sent down from heaven, a direction unto men, and declarations of direction, and the distinction between good and evil. Therefore let him among you who shall be present in this month, fast the same month; but he who shall be sick, or on a journey, shall fast the like number of other days. God would make this an ease unto you, and would not make it a difficulty unto you; that ye may fulfill the number of days, and glorify God, for that he hath directed you, and that ye may give thanks

Edward Henry Palmer1880 When my servants ask thee concerning me, then, verily, I am near; I answer the prayers prayer whenever he prays to me. So let them ask me for an answer, and let them believe in me; haply they may be directed aright

Talal Itani2012 And do not consume one another's wealth by unjust means, nor offer it as bribes to the officials in order to consume part of other people's wealth illicitly, while you know.
Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 And eat not up your property among yourselves in vanity, nor seek by it to gain the hearing of the judges that ye may knowingly devour a portion of the property of others wrongfully
Edward Henry Palmer1880 Devour not your wealth among yourselves vainly, nor present it to the judges that ye may devour a part of the wealth of men sinfully, the while ye know
John Medows Rodwell1861 Consume not your wealth among yourselves in vain things, nor present it to judges that ye may consume a part of other men's wealth unjustly, while ye know the sin which ye commit
George Sale1734 Consume not your wealth among your selves in vain; nor present it unto judges, that ye may devour part of men's substance unjustly, against your own consciences

The translators word this verse differently
Talal Itani2012 They ask you about the crescents. Say, "They are timetables for people, and for the Hajj." It is not virtuous that you approach homes from their backs, but virtue is to be pious. So approach homes from their doors, and observe God, that you may succeed.
Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 They ask thee, (O Muhammad), of new moons, say: They are fixed seasons for mankind and for the pilgrimage. It is not righteousness that ye go to houses by the backs thereof (as do the idolaters at certain seasons), but the righteous man is he who wardeth off (evil). So go to houses by the gates thereof, and observe your duty to Allah, that ye may be successful
Edward Henry Palmer1880 They will ask thee about the phases of the moon; say, 'They are indications of time for men and for the pilgrimage.' And it is not righteousness that ye should enter into your houses from behind them, but righteousness is he who fears; so enter into your houses by the doors thereof and fear God; haply ye may prosper yet
John Medows Rodwell1861 They will ask thee of the new moons. SAY: They are periods fixed for man's service and for the Pilgrimage. There is no piety in entering your houses at the back, but piety consists in the fear of God. Enter your houses then by their doors; and fear God that it may be well with you
George Sale1734 They will ask thee concerning the phases of the moon: Answer, they are times appointed unto men, and to shew the season of the pilgrimage to Mecca. It is not righteousness that ye enter your houses by the back parts thereof, but righteousness is of him who feareth God. Therefore enter your houses by their doors; and fear God, that ye may be happy
These figures count the words the translations share. They measure wording, not meaning, and they do not say which translation is right.

Source Tanzil Qur'an text (Uthmani) · Uthmani, Version 1.1
Hafs/Kufan verse numbering, 6236 ayahs. The bismillah is delivered as a separate `bismillah` attribute on ayah 1 and is NOT fused into the ayah text. 112 surahs carry one: every surah except al-Fatiha, where the bismillah is ayah 1:1 itself, and at-Tawba, which has none. Sourced from the XML output; the plain-text output of the same release DOES fuse it, which is defect D1.
CLEARED. Licence read verbatim from the block embedded in this very file. Ingested exactly as shipped: no normalisation, no stripping of marks, no Unicode recomposition.
Parsed structurally from the EPUB: an h3 names the surah, one p per verse with its number in its own span. An unnumbered p is the basmala and is not a verse, except in surah 1 where the basmala IS verse 1. 112 unnumbered paragraphs were found, which is 114 surahs less surah 1 and surah 9. Text is stored VERBATIM: NFC normalisation and XML entity unescaping only, because CC BY-ND forbids modification.
CLEARED on a licence read first-hand from the translator's own download page, not from an aggregator. Tanzil also hosts this translation, but under a blanket "non-commercial purposes only" term that directs the user to the translator or publisher for permission - a hosting disclaimer, not a grant - so the grant was taken from the licensor directly. The "God" edition was ingested; ClearQuran also publishes an "Allah" edition, differing in how the divine name is rendered, which is not ingested.
CLEARED ON THE WORK, WITH TWO RECORDED CAVEATS ON THIS COPY. (1) Rights basis is the expired copyright term, NOT the redistributing repository's licence. That repository dedicates its contents to the public domain under the Unlicense while also redistributing plainly in-copyright translations (Abdel Haleem, Saheeh International, The Study Quran), so it is dedicating rights it cannot hold and its blanket grant is not relied upon here. (2) The file declares its own upstream as tanzil.net, and Tanzil attaches a non-commercial condition to its TRANSLATION distributions, though not to its Qur'anic text. Since Pickthall's copyright has expired, nobody holds rights in these words and no licence is required from anyone; Tanzil's terms are a contract binding those who download from Tanzil, which we did not. The chain is nonetheless not spotless and Anwar may prefer a clean digitisation of the 1930 printing. NOT VERIFIED: that this digital text matches the 1930 first printing rather than a later revised edition. No page images were collated. Recorded as unverified rather than presented as established. SERVED TEXT DIFFERS FROM THE CITED FILE AT ONE VERSE, 37:97: the file reads "red-hotfire" (a glued token, also in Gutenberg #16955); the served row reads "red-hot fire", restored 2026-09-13 from Pickthall, The Meaning of the Glorious Koran (London: George Allen & Unwin, printed for Alfred A. Knopf; 1930), p. 460, XXXVII 97 - scan archive.org in.ernet.dli.2015.216140, PDF page 475; banked data/derivation-sources/pickthall-1930-dli-2015.216140-text.pdf (sha256 70e81146c97fa3a590243a82e04e349108546074787e2551a78c616202138870) on Anwar Malik's grant.
Hafs/Kufan verse numbering, 6236 verses, keyed to mushaf order. The
bismillah is not fused into ayah 1: 1:1 carries it and no other verse
does. Verified against content check C3 at ingest.
CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. The digital edition's upstream is not stated by the redistributor and the printing is unverified. No statement of purpose is recorded for Palmer because none was sourced from his own preface in this pass; nothing is asserted on his behalf.

CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. TWO edition caveats. (1) The upstream is not stated by the redistributor. (2) Rodwell's own edition PRESENTS THE SURAHS IN HIS OWN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER, not the mushaf order — he says so in his preface. This digital text is keyed to mushaf order, so it derives from a restored-order printing (such as the Everyman edition) rather than from Rodwell's own arrangement. Which printing is not stated and has not been established.

CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. The digital edition's upstream is NOT STATED by the redistributor, so the printing it represents is unverified; Sale's text was reprinted and re-edited many times between 1734 and 1900. Recorded as unverified rather than assumed to be the first edition.

The bismillah is delivered as a separate `bismillah` attribute on ayah 1 and is NOT fused into the ayah text. 112 surahs carry one: every surah except al-Fatiha, where the bismillah is ayah 1:1 itself, and at-Tawba, which has none. Sourced from the XML output; the plain-text output of the same release DOES fuse it, which is defect D1.
CLEARED. Parallel edition, held in ayah_text_variants. It sits alongside the Uthmani spine for search normalisation and is never used to correct it.
