22:73

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O mankind ٱلنَّاسُ O mankind ضُرِبَ Is set forth مَثَلٌۭ an example فَٱسْتَمِعُوا۟ so listen لَهُۥٓ ۚ to it إِنَّ Indeed ٱلَّذِينَ those whom تَدْعُونَ you invoke مِن besides Allah دُونِ besides Allah ٱللَّهِ besides Allah لَن will never يَخْلُقُوا۟ create ذُبَابًۭا a fly وَلَوِ even if ٱجْتَمَعُوا۟ they gathered together لَهُۥ ۖ for it وَإِن And if يَسْلُبْهُمُ snatched away from them ٱلذُّبَابُ the fly شَيْـًۭٔا a thing لَّا not يَسْتَنقِذُوهُ they (could) take it back مِنْهُ ۚ from it ضَعُفَ So weak ٱلطَّالِبُ (are) the seeker وَٱلْمَطْلُوبُ and the one who is sought ٧٣

O people, an example is presented, so listen to it. Indeed, those you invoke besides Allāh will never create [as much as] a fly, even if they gathered together for it [i.e., that purpose]. And if the fly should steal from them a [tiny] thing, they could not recover it from him. Weak are the pursuer and pursued.

مَا Not قَدَرُوا۟ they (have) estimated ٱللَّهَ Allah حَقَّ (with) due قَدْرِهِۦٓ ۗ [His] estimation إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah لَقَوِىٌّ (is) surely All-Strong عَزِيزٌ All-Mighty ٧٤

They have not appraised Allāh with true appraisal. Indeed, Allāh is Powerful and Exalted in Might.

Allāh chooses from the angels messengers and from the people. Indeed, Allāh is Hearing and Seeing.

22:78

وَجَـٰهِدُوا۟ And strive فِى for ٱللَّهِ Allah حَقَّ (with the) striving due (to) Him جِهَادِهِۦ ۚ (with the) striving due (to) Him هُوَ He ٱجْتَبَىٰكُمْ (has) chosen you وَمَا and not جَعَلَ placed عَلَيْكُمْ upon you فِى in ٱلدِّينِ the religion مِنْ any حَرَجٍۢ ۚ difficulty مِّلَّةَ (The) religion أَبِيكُمْ (of) your father إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ۚ Ibrahim هُوَ He سَمَّىٰكُمُ named you ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ Muslims مِن before قَبْلُ before وَفِى and in هَـٰذَا this لِيَكُونَ that may be ٱلرَّسُولُ the Messenger شَهِيدًا a witness عَلَيْكُمْ over you وَتَكُونُوا۟ and you may be شُهَدَآءَ witnesses عَلَى on ٱلنَّاسِ ۚ the mankind فَأَقِيمُوا۟ So establish ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ the prayer وَءَاتُوا۟ and give ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ zakah وَٱعْتَصِمُوا۟ and hold fast بِٱللَّهِ to Allah هُوَ He مَوْلَىٰكُمْ ۖ (is) your Protector فَنِعْمَ so an Excellent ٱلْمَوْلَىٰ [the] Protector وَنِعْمَ and an Excellent ٱلنَّصِيرُ [the] Helper ٧٨

And strive for Allāh with the striving due to Him. He has chosen you and has not placed upon you in the religion any difficulty. [It is] the religion of your father, Abraham. He [i.e., Allāh] named you "Muslims" before [in former scriptures] and in this [revelation] that the Messenger may be a witness over you and you may be witnesses over the people. So establish prayer and give zakāh and hold fast to Allāh. He is your protector; and excellent is the protector, and excellent is the helper.
