يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الأهِلَّةِ قُلْ هِيَ مَوَاقِيتُ لِلنَّاسِ وَالْحَجِّ وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوْاْ الْبُيُوتَ مِن ظُهُورِهَا وَلَكِنَّ الْبِرَّ مَنِ اتَّقَى وَأْتُواْ الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا وَاتَّقُواْ اللّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ

Abdullah Yusuf Ali They ask thee concerning the New Moons. Say: They are but signs to mark fixed periods of time in (the affairs of) men, and for Pilgrimage. It is no virtue if ye enter your houses from the back: It is virtue if ye fear Allah. Enter houses through the proper doors: And fear Allah. That ye may prosper.
Mufti Taqi Usmani They ask you about the new moons. Say: They are indicative of time for the people, and of the Hajj. It is not righteousness that you come into your houses from their backs, but righteousness is that one fears Allah. So come into houses through their doors; and fear Allah so that you may be successful.
Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall They ask thee, (O Muhammad), of new moons. Say: They are fixed seasons for mankind and for the pilgrimage. It is not righteousness that ye go to houses by the backs thereof (as do the idolaters at certain seasons), but the righteous man is he who wardeth off (evil). So go to houses by the gates thereof, and observe your duty to Allah, that ye may be successful
Sahih International They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the new moons. Say, "They are measurements of time for the people and for hajj." And it is not righteousness to enter houses from the back, but righteousness is [in] one who fears Allah. And enter houses from their doors. And fear Allah that you may succeed.
French Ils t'interrogent sur les nouvelles lunes - Dis: "Elles servent aux gens pour compter le temps, et aussi pour le Hajj [pèlerinage]. Et ce n'est pas un acte de bienfaisance que de rentrer chez vous par l'arrière des maisons. Mais la bonté pieuse consiste à craindre Allah. Entrer donc dans les maisons par leurs portes. Et craignez Allah afin que vous réussissiez!".
Japanese かれらは新月に就いて,あなたに問うであろう。言ってやるがいい。「それは人びとのため,また巡礼のための時の定めである。」またあなたがたが,自分の家の裏日から入るのは善行ではない。凡そ善行とは,主を畏れることである。だから家に入るには,正門から入りなさい。アッラーを畏れよ,あなたがたは恐らく至上の幸福を成就するであろう。
Russian Они спрашивают тебя о новолуниях. Скажи: «Они определяют промежутки времени для людей и хаджа. Благочестие не в том, чтобы вы входили в дома с их задней стороны. Но благочестив тот, кто богобоязнен. Входите в дома через двери и бойтесь Аллаха, – быть может, вы окажетесь преуспевшими.
Portugese Interrogar-te-ão sobre os novilúnios. Dize-lhes: Servem para auxiliar o homem no cômputo do tempo e no conhecimento da época da peregrinação. A virtude não consiste em que entreis nas casas pela porta traseira; a verdadeira virtude é a de quem teme a Deus, para que prospereis.
German Sie fragen dich nach den Neumonden. Sprich: "Sie sind festgesetzte Zeiten für die Menschen und den Hagg." Und es ist keine Frömmigkeit, wenn ihr Häuser von der Rückseite betretet. Frömmigkeit ist vielmehr, (Allah) zu fürchten. So geht in die Häuser durch ihre Türen hinein und fürchtet Allah. Vielleicht werdet ihr erfolgreich sein.
