Surah Al-Baqara · Ayah 198·Madanī

198

عَلَيْكُمْ أَن مِّن فَإِذَآ مِّنْ كَمَا وَإِن مِّن لَمِنَ ﴿١٩٨﴾

Translation

Saheeh International

There is no blame upon you for seeking bounty from your Lord [during Hajj]. But when you depart from 'Arafat, remember Allah at al- Mash'ar al-Haram. And remember Him, as He has guided you, for indeed, you were before that among those astray.
