6, Sura al-Anam, Mecca 55


The Quranic text and Ali’s version



وَمَا نُرْسِلُ الْمُرْسَلِينَ إِلاَّ مُبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنذِرِينَ...

6:48. We send the Messengers only to give good news and to warn:

C866. The Prophets are not sent to cancel man's limited free-will. They are sent to preach and teach,

- to preach hope to the repentant ("good news"), and

- to warn the rebellious of the Wrath to come.

...فَمَنْ آمَنَ وَأَصْلَحَ فَلاَ خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلاَ هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ ﴿٤٨﴾

so those who believe and mend (their lives), upon them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.




Asad’s version


6:48 And We send [Our] message-bearers only as heralds of glad tidings and as warners: hence, all who believe and live righteously - no fear need they have, and neither shall they grieve;
