Sura 61
Aya 10
10
يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنوا هَل أَدُلُّكُم عَلىٰ تِجارَةٍ تُنجيكُم مِن عَذابٍ أَليمٍ

Yusuf Ali

O ye who believe! Shall I lead you to a bargain1 that will save you from a grievous Penalty?-
  • Tijarah: bargain, trade, traffic, transaction: something given or done, in return for something which we desire to get. What we give or do on our part is described in verse 11 below, and what we get is described in verse 12. It is truly a wonderful bargain: what we are asked to give is so little; what we are promised in return is so much. There comes God’s unbounded Bounty and Munificence. Cf. also 9:111, where the bargain is stated in another way.
