The infallible!
|
|
2. * |
What is the infallible?
|
|
3. * |
And what shall cause thee to understand what the infallible is?
|
|
4. * |
The tribes of Thamud and Ad denied as a falsehood the day which shall strike men's hearts with terror.
|
|
5. * |
But Thamud were destroyed by a terrible noise:
|
|
6. * |
And Ad were destroyed by a roaring and furious wind;
|
|
7. * |
which God caused to assail them for seven nights and eight days successively: Thou mightest have seen people, during the same, lying prostrate, as though they had been the roots, of hollow palm-trees;
|
|
8. * |
and couldest thou have seen any of them remaining?
|
|
9. * |
Pharaoh also, and those who were before him, and the cities which were overthrown, were guilty of sin;
|
|
10. * |
and they severally were disobedient to the Apostle of their Lord; wherefore He chastised them with an abundant chastisement.
|
|
11. * |
When the water of the deluge arose, We carried you in the ark which swam thereon;
|
|
12. * |
that We might make the same a memorial unto you, and the retaining ear might retain it.
|
|
13. * |
And when one blast shall sound the trumpet,
|
|
14. * |
and the earth shall be moved from its place, and the mountains also, and shall be dashed in pieces at one stroke:
|
|
15. * |
On that day the inevitable hour of judgement shall suddenly come;
|
|
16. * |
and the heavens shall cleave in sunder, and shall fall in pieces, on that day:
|
|
17. * |
And the angels shall be on the sides thereof; and eight shall bear the throne of thy Lord above them, on that day.
|
|
18. * |
On that day ye shall be presented before the judgement seat of God; and none of your secret actions shall be hidden.
|
|
19. * |
And he who shall have his book delivered into his right hand, shall say, take ye, read this my book;
|
|
20. * |
verily I thought that I should be brought to this my account:
|
|
21. * |
He shall lead a pleasing life,
|
|
22. * |
in a lofty garden,
|
|
23. * |
the fruits whereof shall be near to gather.
|
|
24. * |
Eat and drink with easy digestion; because of the good works which ye sent before you, in the days which are past.
|
|
25. * |
But he who shall have his book delivered into his left hand, shall say, O that I had not received this my book;
|
|
26. * |
and that I had not known what this my account was!
|
|
27. * |
O that death had made an end of me!
|
|
28. * |
My riches have not profited me;
|
|
29. * |
and my power is passed from me.
|
|
30. * |
And God shall say to the keepers of hell, take him, and bind him,
|
|
31. * |
and cast him into hell to be burned;
|
|
32. * |
then put him into a chain of the length of seventy cubits:
|
|
33. * |
Because he believed not in the great God;
|
|
34. * |
and was not sollicitous to feed the poor:
|
|
35. * |
Wherefore this day he shall have no friend here;
|
|
36. * |
nor any food, but the filthy corruption flowing from the bodies of the damned,
|
|
37. * |
which none shall eat but the sinners.
|
|
38. * |
I swear by that which ye see,
|
|
39. * |
and that which ye see not,
|
|
40. * |
that this is the discourse of an honourable Apostle,
|
|
41. * |
and not the discourse of a poet: How little do ye believe!
|
|
42. * |
Neither is it the discourse of a soothsayer: How little are ye admonished!
|
|
43. * |
It is a revelation from the Lord of all creatures.
|
|
44. * |
If Mohammed had forged any part of these discourses concerning Us,
|
|
45. * |
verily We had taken him by the right hand,
|
|
46. * |
and had cut in sunder the vein of his heart;
|
|
47. * |
neither would We have withheld any of you from chastising him.
|
|
48. * |
And verily this book is an admonition unto the pious;
|
|
49. * |
and We well know that there are some of you who charge the same with imposture:
|
|
50. * |
But it shall surely be an occasion of grievous sighing unto the infidels;
|
|
51. * |
for it is the truth of a certianty.
|
|
52. * |
Wherefore praise the name of thy Lord, the great God.
