| 14. * | Taste the retribution; this is what you used to challenge. |
| 15. * | The righteous have deserved gardens and springs. |
| 16. * | They receive their Lord's rewards, for they used to be pious. |
| 17. * | Rarely did they sleep the whole night. |

| 19. * | A portion of their money was set aside for the beggar and the needy. |
| 20. * | The earth is full of signs for those who are certain. |

| 26. * | He asked his family to prepare a fat calf. |
| 27. * | When he offered it to them, he remarked, "Do you not eat?" |
| 28. * | He harbored fear of them. They said, "Have no fear," and they gave good news of a knowledgeable son. |
| 29. * | His wife was astonished. Noting her wrinkled face: "I am a sterile old woman." |
| 30. * | They said, "Thus said your Lord. He is the Most Wise, the Omniscient." |
| 31. * | He said, "What are you up to, O messengers?" |
| 32. * | They said, "We have been dispatched to criminal people. |
| 33. * | "We will shower them with rocks of clay. |
| 34. * | "Marked by your Lord for the transgressors." |
| 35. * | We then delivered all the believers. |
| 36. * | We did not find in it except one house of submitters. |
| 37. * | We set it up as a lesson for those who fear the painful retribution. |
| 38. * | In Moses (there is a lesson). We sent him to Pharaoh with manifest proofs. |
| 39. * | But he turned away, in arrogance, and said, "Magician, or crazy." |
| 40. * | Consequently, we punished him and his troops. We threw them into the sea, and he is the one to blame. |
| 41. * | In `Aad (there is a lesson). We sent upon them disastrous wind. |
| 42. * | Anything that it came upon was utterly destroyed. |
| 43. * | In Thamoud (there is a lesson). They were told, "Enjoy temporarily." |
| 44. * | They rebelled against the command of their Lord. Consequently, the lightning struck them as they looked. |
| 45. * | They could never get up, nor were they helped. |
| 46. * | And the people of Noah before that; they were wicked people. |
| 47. * | We constructed the sky with our hands, and we will continue to expand it. |
| 48. * | And we made the earth habitable; a perfect design. |
| 49. * | We created a pair (male and female) of everything, that you may take heed. |
| 50. * | You shall escape to GOD. I am sent by Him to you as a manifest warner. |
| 51. * | KHALIFA:Do not set up beside GOD any other god. I am sent by Him to you as a manifest warner. |
| 52. * | Consistently, when a messenger went to the previous generations, they said, "Magician," or, "Crazy." |
| 53. * | Did they make an agreement with each other? Indeed, they are transgressors. |
| 54. * | You may disregard them; you cannot be blamed. |
| 55. * | And remind, for the reminder benefits the believers. |
| 56. * | I did not create the jinns and the humans except to worship Me alone. |
| 57. * | I need no provisions from them, nor do I need them to feed Me. |
| 58. * | GOD is the Provider, the Possessor of all power, the Supreme. |
| 59. * | The transgressors have incurred the same fate as their previous counterparts; they should not challenge. |
| 60. * | Woe to those who disbelieved from the day that is awaiting them. |
