Verse 1 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:1

Whatever is in the skies and whatever is in the earth, glorifies God, the King, the Holy, the Mighty, the Wise

Verse 2 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:2

He it is Who raised among the unlettered, a messenger from among them, he recites to them His signs and purifies them and teaches them the book (the law) and the wisdom, (interpretation of the law) and earlier they were in clear error

Verse 3 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:3

and (will do so to) others (too) from among those who have not yet joined them. And He is the Mighty, the Wise

That is the grace of God, He gives it to whom He wills, and God is the Possessor of great grace

Verse 5 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:5

The likeness of those who were (entrusted) with the burden (of implementing) the Torah then they did not bear this burden, is like the likeness of a donkey which bears the burden of books. Evil is the likeness of the people who deny the signs of God. And God does not guide the unjust people

Say, “The death from which you run away will certainly meet you, then you will be turned towards the Knower of the unseen and the seen and He will inform you of that which you used to do.”

Verse 9 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:9

O you who believe ! when you are called for the congregational worship (salat) on Friday, hasten towards the remembrance of God and leave off trading (all business), that is better for you, if you (could only) know

Verse 10 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:10

Then when you complete the worship (salat), disperse in the earth and seek from God’s grace, and remember God much that you may be successful

Verse 11 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:11

And when they see any commerce or pastime, they disperse towards it and leave you standing. Say, “That which is with God is better than pastime and commerce and God is the Best of providers.”
