Translation of the meanings Surah: Āl-‘Imrān   Ayah:
وَكَيۡفَ تَكۡفُرُونَ وَأَنتُمۡ تُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡكُمۡ ءَايَٰتُ ٱللَّهِ وَفِيكُمۡ رَسُولُهُۥۗ وَمَن يَعۡتَصِم بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ هُدِيَ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطٖ مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ
101. And how can you disbelieve (in the Truth) while Allah’s revelations are being recited to you, and among you is His messenger (Muhammad). Whoever holds fast to Allāh32, he indeed is guided to a right Path.
32. By holding tight to the surest of ties i.e. Islam.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِۦ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُّسۡلِمُونَ
102. O believers, fear Allāh as He should be feared33; and do not die unless you are Muslims34.
33. By doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has prohibited. He is to be obeyed and not disobeyed, to be remembered always and not to be forgotten, to give Him thanks and not to be ingrate and denier. If we make real commitments to follow the Qur'an and the Sunnah in a truthful, just and righteous way, then Allāh will bless us in this world and the Hereafter.
34. I.e., submitting to the Will of God.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
وَٱعۡتَصِمُواْ بِحَبۡلِ ٱللَّهِ جَمِيعٗا وَلَا تَفَرَّقُواْۚ وَٱذۡكُرُواْ نِعۡمَتَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ إِذۡ كُنتُمۡ أَعۡدَآءٗ فَأَلَّفَ بَيۡنَ قُلُوبِكُمۡ فَأَصۡبَحۡتُم بِنِعۡمَتِهِۦٓ إِخۡوَٰنٗا وَكُنتُمۡ عَلَىٰ شَفَا حُفۡرَةٖ مِّنَ ٱلنَّارِ فَأَنقَذَكُم مِّنۡهَاۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمۡ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ
103. Hold fast to the Rope of Allāh all together (to Islam, the True Religion of God) and be not disunited. Recall the Favor of Allāh upon you when you were enemies, then He united your hearts, so by His grace you became brothers; and you were on the brink of a pit of fire35, then He saved you from it. Thus does Allāh make clear to you His revelations, that you may be guided.
35. I.e., tribal and party strife and the violence of one another. 
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
وَلۡتَكُن مِّنكُمۡ أُمَّةٞ يَدۡعُونَ إِلَى ٱلۡخَيۡرِ وَيَأۡمُرُونَ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَيَنۡهَوۡنَ عَنِ ٱلۡمُنكَرِۚ وَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُفۡلِحُونَ
104. Let there be among you a party who call 'others' to all that is good, command what is right, and prohibit what is wrong. It is they who are successful.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
وَلَا تَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ تَفَرَّقُواْ وَٱخۡتَلَفُواْ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتُۚ وَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٞ
105. And be not like those (Jews and Christians) who became divided and differed (into many sects) after clear Proofs had come to them. And these will have an awful torment.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
يَوۡمَ تَبۡيَضُّ وُجُوهٞ وَتَسۡوَدُّ وُجُوهٞۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسۡوَدَّتۡ وُجُوهُهُمۡ أَكَفَرۡتُم بَعۡدَ إِيمَٰنِكُمۡ فَذُوقُواْ ٱلۡعَذَابَ بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡفُرُونَ
106. On the Day when (some) faces are illuminated and others are darkened. As for those whose faces become dark: "Did you disbelieve after your faith?" Taste then the torment for what you used to disbelieve (in theTruth).
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ٱبۡيَضَّتۡ وُجُوهُهُمۡ فَفِي رَحۡمَةِ ٱللَّهِۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ
107. But as for those whose faces become illuminated, they will be in Allah’s Mercy (Paradise) - they will abide therein forever.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
تِلۡكَ ءَايَٰتُ ٱللَّهِ نَتۡلُوهَا عَلَيۡكَ بِٱلۡحَقِّۗ وَمَا ٱللَّهُ يُرِيدُ ظُلۡمٗا لِّلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
108. These are Allah's revelations which We recite to you (Muhammad) in truth. And Allah desires no injustice to 'His' creation.
