Those who follow the Messenger, the Prophet who can neither read nor write (i.e. Muhammad SAW) whom they find written with them in the Taurat (Torah) (Deut, xviii, 15) and the Injeel (Gospel) (John xiv, 16), - he commands them for Al-Ma'ruf (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained); and forbids them from Al-Munkar (i.e. disbelief, polytheism of all kinds, and all that Islam has forbidden); he allows them as lawful At-Taiyibat [(i.e. all good and lawful) as regards things, deeds, beliefs, persons, foods, etc.], and prohibits them as unlawful Al-Khaba'ith (i.e. all evil and unlawful as regards things, deeds, beliefs, persons, foods, etc.), he releases them from their heavy burdens (of Allah's Covenant), and from the fetters (bindings) that were upon them. So those who believe in him (Muhammad SAW), honour him, help him, and follow the light (the Quran) which has been sent down with him, it is they who will be successful.
هم آنان که پیروی کنند از آن رسول (ختمی) و پیغمبر امّی که در تورات و انجیلی که در دست آنهاست (نام و نشان و اوصاف) او را نگاشته می‌یابند که آنها را امر به هر نیکویی و نهی از هر زشتی خواهد کرد و بر آنان هر طعام پاکیزه و مطبوع را حلال، و هر پلید منفور را حرام می‌گرداند، و احکام پر رنج و مشتقی را که چون زنجیر به گردن خود نهاده‌اند از آنان برمی‌دارد (و دین آسان و موافق فطرت بر خلق می‌آورد). پس آنان که به او گرویدند و از او حرمت و عزت نگاه داشتند و یاری او کردند و نوری را که به او نازل شد پیروی نمودند آن گروه به حقیقت رستگاران عالمند.
