Acts

A man named Ananias and his wife Sapphira sold a property.

He kept a part of the price for himself and his wife knew this. Then he put only a portion of the price at the feet of the hawariyun.

And Peter said, "Ananias, why did Al-Shaitan fill your heart so that you lied to Holy Ruh Allah and kept part of the price of the land?

The property was yours, and even when you sold it, you could have kept control of the money. How did you invent this shameful matter in your heart? You did not lie to people, but to Allah!"

When he heard these words, Ananias fell dead. Everyone who heard this news was very afraid.

Young men wrapped him in a grave cloth, carried him out, and buried him.

After about three hours, his wife came in. She did not know what had just happened.

Peter asked her, "Tell me, was the price of the property this much?" She said, "Yes, that much."

Peter told her, "What made you lie to Al-Ruh from Allah Al-Mawla? Look! The feet of the people who buried your husband are at the door. They will carry you out also."

And she fell dead at his feet immediately. The young men entered, found her dead, carried her outside, and buried her beside her husband.

Great fear came upon the whole jama'a of chosen people and everyone else who heard of their news.

The hawariyun did many miracles and ayat in the sight of the people. They gathered with one will in the corridor of Sulayman in the house of Allah.

The other people did not associate with them, but the people respected them in awe.

Numerous multitudes of male and female believers were added to the followers of our mawla Isa.

People carried their sick people and put them on mats and beds on the road so that even the shadow of Peter might fall on some of them as he passed.

Crowds of people from the vicinity of Al-Quds brought their sick people and people touched by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.

But the chief habr and all the Sadducees with him stood up, filled with jealousy.

They arrested the hawariyun and put them in the common jail.

But Rabb Al-Alamin sent his angel at night, who opened the doors of the jail and freed them. He told them,

"Go and stand in the house of Allah, and tell the people the complete message about this spiritual life."

They obeyed his words, entered the courtyard of the house of Allah at sunrise, and started teaching. Then the chief habr and the rest of the people who were with him called a meeting of the highest council with all the sheikhs of Bani Israil. Then they commanded the hawariyun to be brought from the jail.

But the police did not find the hawariyun in jail, so they returned and told them,

"We found the jail completely locked and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened the doors, we did not find anyone inside."

When the officer of the police of the house of Allah and the leading ahbar heard their report, they were amazed. They asked each other about what this matter meant.

Then a man came and told them, "The men whom you put in jail are standing and teaching the people in the house of Allah."

The officer of the police went and brought them without violence, because they were afraid that the people would stone them.

Then they made them stand before the council, and the chief habr started to question them. He said,

"We commanded you strongly not to teach in this name, and you have filled Al-Quds with your teaching, insisting on casting the responsibility of the blood of this man on us!

Peter and the hawariyun answered him, "We must obey Allah and not people.

The Rabb of our fathers has resurrected Isa alive after you arrested him and delivered him to be executed by hanging him on a tree.

But Allah raised him up, highly exalted at his right hand, as Amir and savior, to bless Bani Israil with repentance and forgiveness of their sins.

We give shahada to these things, and so does Holy Ruh Allah, whom Allah sent down on those who obey him."

When they heard this, they were furious. They wanted to kill the hawariyun.

But Gamaliel, one of the members of the highest council, stood up. He was a teacher of the Tawrat of the party of the Pharisees, and all the people respected him. He commanded that the hawariyun be put outside for a while.

Then he told the council, "Bani Israil, be careful what you do to these men.

Remember how Theudas came previously and claimed to be important. Four hundred men followed him. But after he was killed, his men were all scattered, and nothing resulted from it.

And remember how Yahuda from Al-Jalil came in the days of the census and stirred up the people after him. Then he also was killed and all his followers were scattered.

So I tell you in this matter, let these men go. Leave them alone. If this plan or movement is from people, it will fail.

But if it is from Allah, you will not be able to conquer them. You may find yourselves resisting Allah."

He convinced them, so they brought the hawariyun in. They whipped them, commanded them not to speak in the name of Isa, and then released them.

The hawariyun left the council rejoicing that Allah considered them worthy of the honor of bearing shame for the sake of the name of Isa.

Every day they were in the house of Allah and in the houses of people. They continued teaching and announcing the good news that the expected Al-Masih was Isa.
