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]
