| 1. * | Blessed be He in Whose hands is the Kingdom of the universe and has power over all things.[1] |
| 2. * | The One Who created death and life, so that He may put you to test, to find out which of you is best in deeds: He is the All-Mighty, the All-Forgiving.[2] |
| 3. * | The One Who created the seven heavens, one above another, you will not see any flaw in the creation of the Compassionate. Look once again, do you see any flaw?[3] |
| 4. * | Then look still another time, yet again your sight will come back bewildered, and feel exhausted.[4] |
| 5. * | We have decorated the heaven of this world with lamps and We made them as missiles for pelting the Satans and thus prepared for them the scourge of flames.[5] |
| 6. * | As for those who disbelieve their Lord, there will be the punishment of hell, which is an evil abode.[6] |
| 7. * | When they will be plunged into its fire, they shall hear its roaring and boiling[7] |
| 8. * | as though bursting with rage. Every time a group is plunged therein, its guards will ask: "Did not a Warner come to you?"[8] |
| 9. * | They will answer: "Yes indeed, a Warner did come to us, but we rejected him and said, Allah has revealed nothing - you are merely in gross error."[9] |
| 10. * | They will further say: "Had we only listened or used our intelligence, we would have not been among the inmates of the blazing fire."[10] |
| 11. * | Thus shall they confess their sin; so away from the mercy of Allah will be the dwellers of hell.[11] |
| 12. * | As for those who fear their Lord, although they have not seen Him, shall have forgiveness and a great reward.[12] |
| 13. * | Whether you speak in secret or aloud, surely He is aware of all that is in the breasts.[13] |
| 14. * | Would He, Who has created them, not know? He is the Knower of finest mysteries, and aware of everything.[14] |
| 15. * | It is He Who has made the earth subservient to you, to walk through its tracts and eat of His provided sustenance. To Him is the return at resurrection.[15] |
| 16. * | Do you feel secure that He Who is in heaven, will not cause the earth to cave in beneath you and start shaking suddenly?[16] |
| 17. * | Or do you feel secure that He Who is in heaven will not send against you a violent tornado, then you shall know how was My warning![17] |
| 18. * | Those who have gone before them likewise disbelieved, then see how terrible was the way I rejected them?[18] |
| 19. * | Do they not observe the birds above them spreading their wings and folding them? None could hold them except the Compassionate (Allah), surely it is He Who watches over all things.[19] |
| 20. * | What force is there that can help you besides the Compassionate? In fact, the unbelievers are suffering from delusion.[20] |
| 21. * | Or who is there that can provide you if He withholds His provision? Yet, they persist in rebellion and aversion from the truth.[21] |
| 22. * | Just think, who is rightly guided: he who walks with his face bent down, or he who walks properly on an even path?[22] |
| 23. * | Say: "It is He Who has brought you into being, gave you the faculties of hearing, seeing, feeling and understanding: yet you are seldom thankful."[23] |
| 24. * | Say: "It is He Who has multiplied you in the earth, and before Him you shall all be assembled."[24] |
| 25. * | They ask: "When will this promise be fulfilled, if what you say is true?"[25] |
| 26. * | Tell them: "Allah Alone has the knowledge of that; my mission is only to warn you plainly."[26] |
| 27. * | But, when they shall see it close at hand, the faces of the disbelievers will turn black with gloom, and it will be said to them: "This is which you were calling for."[27] |
| 28. * | Further say: "Have you ever considered that even if Allah destroys me as well as those with me or bestows His mercy on us; who will save the disbelievers from a painful punishment?"[28] |
| 29. * | Say: "He is the Compassionate: in Him we have believed, and in Him we have put our trust. Soon you will find out, which one of us is in the manifest error."[29] |
| 30. * | Say: "Have you ever considered that if all the water you have, sink down in the ground, who is it, that will bring you the clear-flowing water?"[30] |
