| 1. * | Alif L'am Ra. These are the verses of the Divine Book, the Glorious Qur’an which makes the things clear.[1] |
| 2. * | The Day will come when the unbelievers will wish that they were Muslims.[2] |
| 3. * | Leave them alone to eat and enjoy themselves and be deluded by false hopes, for soon they will find out the Truth.[3] |
| 4. * | Never did We destroy a town whose term of life was not ordained beforehand.[4] |
| 5. * | No people can forestall their doom, nor can they postpone it.[5] |
| 6. * | They say: "O you to whom the reminder (The Qur'an) is being revealed! You are surely insane.[6] |
| 7. * | Why don’t you bring us the angels, if you are of the truthful ones?"[7] |
| 8. * | O Muhammad, tell them: "We do not send down the angels except for just cause (to execute Our scourge), and when they come, people are not given respite.[8] |
| 9. * | Surely We have revealed this reminder (The Qur'an); and We will surely preserve it Ourself.[9] |
| 10. * | Certainly We sent Messengers before you among the early nations;[10] |
| 11. * | but whenever a Messenger came to them, they mocked him.[11] |
| 12. * | Thus do We let doubt creep into the hearts of the criminals;[12] |
| 13. * | that they do not believe in it (The Qur'an), despite the examples of the people who passed before them.[13] |
| 14. * | Even if we had opened a gate in Heaven and they ascend through it and keep on ascending,[14] |
| 15. * | still they would have said, 'Our eyes have been dazzled; rather we have been bewitched.'"[15] |
| 16. * | It is We who have decked the heavens with constellations and made them fair- seeming for the beholders;[16] |
| 17. * | and We have guarded them from every accursed Satan.[17] |
| 18. * | Any Satan that steals a hearing, there follows him a fiery comet.[18] |
| 19. * | We have spread out the earth and set mountains upon it; and caused to grow every suitable thing therein,[19] |
| 20. * | and We provided therein means of sustenance for you and many other creatures to whom you do not provide.[20] |
| 21. * | There is nothing which is not in Our inexhaustible treasure and sent down in appropriate measure.[21] |
| 22. * | We send the fertilizing winds and send down water from the sky for you to drink; it is not you who hold the storage of this wealth.[22] |
| 23. * | Certainly it is We who give life and cause to die, and We are the inheritors of all.[23] |
| 24. * | Certainly We have full knowledge of those who have gone before you and certainly We know those who will come later.[24] |
| 25. * | Surely your Lord will gather them together; surely He is Wise, Knowledgeable.[25] |
| 26. * | We created man from sounding clay, black mud moulded into shape;[26] |
| 27. * | while before him We had created Jinn from smokeless fire.[27] |
| 28. * | Remember when your Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create a man from sounding clay, black mud moulded into shape;[28] |
| 29. * | when I complete his moulding and breath into him of My spirit, kneel down and prostrate before him."[29] |
| 30. * | Accordingly the angels prostrated altogether,[30] |
| 31. * | except Iblees (The Satan); he refused to join those who prostrated.[31] |
| 32. * | Allah asked: "O Iblees! What is the matter with you that you did not join those who prostrated?"[32] |
| 33. * | He replied: "It does not behoove me to prostrate myself to this man whom You have created from sounding clay, black mud moulded into shape."[33] |
| 34. * | Allah said: "Get out of here, you are accursed.[34] |
| 35. * | The curse will remain on you till the Day of Judgement."[35] |
| 36. * | At this Iblees requested: "Lord! Give me respite till the Day of Resurrection."[36] |
| 37. * | Allah said: "All right! You are given the respite[37] |
| 38. * | till the Day of appointed time."[38] |
| 39. * | Iblees said: "Lord! Since You let me go astray, I will make evil fair-seeming to them on earth and I will seduce them all[39] |
| 40. * | except those of them who are Your sincere devotees."[40] |
| 41. * | Allah said: "This course of action is all right with Me[41] |
| 42. * | - you will not have any authority over My devotees except those misguided ones who follow you.[42] |
| 43. * | They will be all destined for Hell,[43] |
| 44. * | which has seven gates, each gate will be assigned to a separate group from among them."[44] |
| 45. * | The righteous will be in the midst of the gardens and fountains of paradise[45] |
| 46. * | and it will be said to them: "Enter into these in peace and security."[46] |
| 47. * | We shall remove all hatred from their hearts -they will become like brothers and sit on couches face to face.[47] |
| 48. * | No fatigue will touch them in there, nor will they ever be asked to leave.[48] |
| 49. * | O Prophet! Tell My devotees that I am indeed the Forgiving, the Merciful;[49] |
| 50. * | but at the same time My punishment is also the most painful punishment.[50] |
| 51. * | Tell them about the guests of Abraham.[51] |
| 52. * | They entered upon them and said: "Peace be upon you!" But he replied: "Surely we are afraid of you."[52] |
| 53. * | They answered: "Do not be afraid of us! We have come to you with good news of a son endowed with knowledge."[53] |
| 54. * | He said: "Are you giving me the good news of a son when I have become old? What kind of good news you are giving?"[54] |
| 55. * | They replied: "We are giving you true good news; you should not be of those who despair."[55] |
| 56. * | He said: "Who would despair of the mercy of his Lord except one who goes astray?"[56] |
| 57. * | Then he asked: "On what expedition you have been sent, O emissaries of Allah?"[57] |
| 58. * | They replied: "We have been sent to punish a criminal nation,[58] |
| 59. * | with the exception of Lot’s (Lot's) family; we will certainly rescue them all[59] |
| 60. * | except his wife, who, Allah says, has been destined to remain with those who will stay behind."[60] |
| 61. * | So when the emissaries came to the family of Lot,[61] |
| 62. * | he said: " You appear to be strangers."[62] |
| 63. * | They said: "We have come to you with that concerning which these people had doubts.[63] |
| 64. * | We have come to you with the Truth of Allah’s decree and we are telling you the truth.[64] |
| 65. * | You should, therefore, depart with your family during the last hours of the night and you yourself should follow them at their rear; let no one of you look back, keep on going where you are commanded to go."[65] |
| 66. * | We informed him about this decree of Ours that the roots of the sinners of his city would be cut off by the morning.[66] |
| 67. * | The people of the town came rejoicing to the house of Lot when they heard the news of those two young male visitors.[67] |
| 68. * | Lot said: "They are my guests, so do not disgrace me.[68] |
| 69. * | Have fear of Allah and do not put me to shame."[69] |
| 70. * | They said: "Have we not forbidden you to plead for the rest of the world?"[70] |
| 71. * | He said: "Here are my daughters, if you must act."[71] |
| 72. * | By your life, O Prophet Muhammad, they were madly blundering in their intoxication of lust![72] |
| 73. * | So the mighty blast overtook them at sunrise.[73] |
| 74. * | Thus We turned the town upside down and rained down on them brimstones of baked clay.[74] |
| 75. * | Surely there are major lessons in this for those who investigate,[75] |
| 76. * | and this smitten town still lies right on the permanent highway on which the unbelievers travel during their business trips.[76] |
| 77. * | Indeed there is a sign in this for the true believers.[77] |
| 78. * | The people of Al- Aikah (the nation of Prophet Shu’aib) were also wrongdoers.[78] |
| 79. * | So We inflicted retribution on them. The ruined towns of these two nations are lying on an open road.[79] |
| 80. * | The people of Hijr also denied their Messenger.[80] |
| 81. * | We gave them Our signs, but they ignored them.[81] |
| 82. * | They hewed their homes in the mountains for safety.[82] |
| 83. * | But the mighty blast seized them one morning, and all their labor of building their homes through carving the rocks did not avail them.[83] |
| 84. * | We have not created the Heavens and the Earth, and all that lies between them but to manifest the Truth.[84] |
| 85. * | The Hour of Doom is sure to come, so overlook their misbehavior in a gracious manner.[85] |
| 86. * | Surely your Lord is the All-Knowing Creator.[86] |
| 87. * | We have given you the Seven Verses that are worthy of recitation over and over again (Surah Al-Fatiha) and the Glorious Qur'an.[87] |
| 88. * | Do not look at the worldly wealth which We have given to different people among them, nor grieve at their condition. Leave them alone, attend to the believers in kindness,[88] |
| 89. * | and tell the unbelievers: "Surely I am only a plain Warner."[89] |
| 90. * | This warning is like the warning which We sent down to the schismatics,[90] |
| 91. * | the one who divided their Qur’an into separate parts, believing in some and denying others.[91] |
| 92. * | So by your Lord! We will question them all[92] |
| 93. * | about their doings.[93] |
| 94. * | Therefore, proclaim publicly what you are commanded and turn away from the pagans.[94] |
| 95. * | Surely We Ourself will suffice you against the scoffers;[95] |
| 96. * | those who place other deities alongside Allah, will soon come to know their folly.[96] |
| 97. * | We know that your heart is distressed by what they say against you.[97] |
| 98. * | The cure of your heart’s distress is that you should celebrate the praises of your Lord and be of those who prostrate themselves before Him,[98] |
| 99. * | and worship your Lord until there comes to you which is certain (death).[99] |
