Quote:
{22:25} Indeed, those who have disbelieved and avert [people] from the way of God and [from] al-Masjid al-Haram, which We made for the people - equal are the resident therein and one from outside; and [also] whoever intends [a deed] therein of deviation [in religion] or wrongdoing - We will make him taste of a painful punishment.

I suggest,
{22:25} Verily, those who have disbelieved and shun [people] from the way of God and [from] the Sacrosanct Mosque, which We set up for the people equally: the consecrating therein and the nomad; and [also] whoever wants therein sacrilege with wrongdoing - We shall have him taste of a painful torment.

Quote:
{22:26} And [mention, O Muhammad], when We designated for Abraham the site of the House, [saying], "Do not associate anything with Me and purify My House for those who perform tawaf and those who stand [in prayer] and those who bow and prostrate.

I suggest,
{22:26} And [mention, O Muhammad,] as We designated for Abraham the place of the House, [saying], "Do not associate with Me [in worship] a thing and purify My House for the circumambulators and the standing [in prayer] and the bowing, the prostrate."

Quote:
{22:27} And proclaim to the people the hajj [pilgrimage]; they will come to you on foot and on every lean camel; they will come from every distant pass -

I suggest,
{22:27} "And announce to the people about the pilgrimage; they [will] come to you on foot and on every slender [mount], coming from every deep crevasse - "

Quote:
{22:28} That they may witness benefits for themselves and mention the name of God on known days over what He has provided for them of [sacrificial] animals. So eat of them and feed the miserable and poor.

I suggest,
{22:28} "So that they may witness benefits for themselves and mention the name of God during known days over what He has provided them of herd of livestock. So eat of them and feed the indigent, needy one."

Quote:
{22:29} Then let them end their untidiness and fulfill their vows and perform tawaf around the ancient House."

I suggest,
{22:29} "Then let them conclude their unkemptness, fulfill their vows and circumambulate by the ancient House."
