لَيْسَ
عَلَيْكُمْ
جُنَاحٌ
أَن
تَبْتَغُوا
فَضْلًا
مِّن
رَّبِّكُمْ
فَإِذَا
أَفَضْتُم
مِّنْ
عَرَفَاتٍ
فَاذْكُرُوا
اللَّهَ
عِندَ
الْمَشْعَرِ
الْحَرَامِ
وَاذْكُرُوهُ
كَمَا
هَدَاكُمْ
وَإِن
كُنتُم
مِّن
قَبْلِهِ
لَمِنَ
الضَّالِّينَ
laysa ʿalaykum junāḥun ʾan tabtaghū faḍlan min rabbikum fa-ʾidhā ʾafaḍtum min ʿarafātin fa-dhkurū llāha ʿinda l-mashʿari l-ḥarāmi wa-dhkurūhu ka-mā hadākum wa-ʾin kuntum min qablihī la-mina ḍ-ḍāllīna
It is no crime in you if ye seek of the bounty of your Lord (during pilgrimage). Then when ye pour down from (Mount) Arafat, celebrate the praises of Allah at the Sacred Monument, and celebrate His praises as He has directed you, even though, before this, ye went astray.
— Abdullah Yusufali
There is no sin upon you in seeking your Lord’s bounty [during the hajj season]. Then when you stream out of ‘Arafat remember Allah at the Holy Mash‘ar, and remember Him as He has guided you, and earlier you were indeed among the astray.
