2.151 . Even as We have sent unto you a messenger from among you , who reciteth unto you Our revelations and causeth you to grow , and teacheth you the Scripture and wisdom , and teacheth you that which ye knew not . '
2. 2.152 . Therefore remember Me , I will remember you . Give thanks to Me , and reject not Me .
2. 2.153 . O ye who believe! Seek help in steadfastness , and prayer . Lo! Allah is with the steadfast .
2. 2.154 . And call not those who are slain in the way of Allah "dead . " Nay , they are living , only ye perceive not .
2. 2.155 . And surely We shall try you with something of fear and hunger , and loss of wealth and lives and crops ; but give glad tidings to the steadfast ,
2. 2.156 . Who say , when a misfortune striketh them : Lo! we are Allah ' s and Lo! unto Him we are returning .
2. 2.157 . Such are they on whom are blessings from their Lord , and mercy . Such are the rightly guided .
2. 2.158 . Lo! ( the mountains ) Al-Safa and Al-Marwah are among the indications of Allah . It is therefore no sin for him who is on pilgrimage to the House ( of God ) or visiteth it , to go around them ( as the pagan custom is ) . And he who doeth good of his own accord ( for him ) , Lo! Allah is Responsive , Aware .
2. 2.159 . Those who hide the proofs and the guidance which We revealed , after We had made it clear in the Scripture : such are accursed of Allah and accursed of those who have the power to curse .
2. 2.160 . Except such of them as repent and amend and make manifest ( the truth ) . These it is toward whom I relent . I am the Relenting , the Merciful .
