| 1. * | Say: It has been revealed to me that a company of Jinns listened (to the Qur'an). They said, 'We have really heard a wonderful Recital! |
| 2. * | 'It gives guidance to the Right, and we have believed therein: we shall not join (in worship) any (gods) with our Lord. |
| 3. * | 'And Exalted is the Majesty of our Lord: He has taken neither a wife nor a son. |
| 4. * | 'There were some foolish ones among us, who used to utter extravagant lies against Allah. |
| 5. * | 'But we do think that no man or spirit should say aught that untrue against Allah. |
| 6. * | 'True, there were persons among mankind who took shelter with persons among the Jinns, but they increased them in folly. |
| 7. * | 'And they (came to) think as ye thought, that Allah would not raise up any one (to Judgment). |
| 8. * | 'And we pried into the secrets of heaven; but we found it filled with stern guards and flaming fires. |
| 9. * | 'We used, indeed, to sit there in (hidden) stations, to (steal) a hearing; but any who listen now will find a flaming fire watching him in ambush. |
| 10. * | 'And we understand not whether ill is intended to those on earth, or whether their Lord (really) intends to guide them to right conduct. |
| 11. * | 'There are among us some that are righteous, and some the contrary: we follow divergent paths. |
| 12. * | 'But we think that we can by no means frustrate Allah throughout the earth, nor can we frustrate Him by flight. |
| 13. * | 'And as for us, since we have listened to the Guidance, we have accepted it: and any who believes in his Lord has no fear, either of a short (account) or of any injustice. |
| 14. * | 'Amongst us are some that submit their wills (to Allah., and some that swerve from justice. Now those who submit their wills - they have sought out (the path) of right conduct: |
| 15. * | 'But those who swerve,- they are (but) fuel for Hell-fire'- |
| 16. * | (And Allah.s Message is): "If they (the Pagans) had (only) remained on the (right) Way, We should certainly have bestowed on them Rain in abundance. |
| 17. * | "That We might try them by that (means). But if any turns away from the remembrance of his Lord, He will cause him to undergo a severe Penalty. |
| 18. * | "And the places of worship are for Allah (alone): So invoke not any one along with Allah. |
| 19. * | "Yet when the Devotee of Allah stands forth to invoke Him, they just make round him a dense crowd." |
| 20. * | Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord, and I join not with Him any (false god)." |
| 21. * | Say: "It is not in my power to cause you harm, or to bring you to right conduct." |
| 22. * | Say: "No one can deliver me from Allah (If I were to disobey Him), nor should I find refuge except in Him, |
| 23. * | "Unless I proclaim what I receive from Allah and His Messages: for any that disobey Allah and His Messenger,- for them is Hell: they shall dwell therein for ever." |
| 24. * | At length, when they see (with their own eyes) that which they are promised,- then will they know who it is that is weakest in (his) helper and least important in point of numbers. |
| 25. * | Say: "I know not whether the (Punishment) which ye are promised is near, or whether my Lord will appoint for it a distant term. |
| 26. * | "He (alone) knows the Unseen, nor does He make any one acquainted with His Mysteries,- |
| 27. * | "Except an apostle whom He has chosen: and then He makes a band of watchers march before him and behind him, |
| 28. * | "That He may know that they have (truly) brought and delivered the Messages of their Lord: and He surrounds (all the mysteries) that are with them, and takes account of every single thing." |
