49. Say: The Truth hath come, and falsehood showeth not its face and will not return.
50. Say: If I err, I err only to my own loss, and if I am rightly guided it is because of that which my Lord hath revealed
unto me. Lo! He is Hearer, Nigh.
51. Couldst thou but see when they are terrified with no escape, and are seized from near at hand.
52. And say: We (now) believe therein. But how can they reach (faith) from afar off,
53. When they disbelieved in it of yore. They aim at the unseen from afar off.
54. And a gulf is set between them and that which they desire, as was done for people of their kind of old. Lo! they were
in hopeless doubt.
Surah 35. Fatir
1. Praise be to Allah, the Creator of the heavens and the earth, who appointeth the angels messengers having wings two,
three and four. He multiplieth in creation what He will. Lo! Allah is Able to do all things.
2. That which Allah openeth unto mankind of mercy none can withhold it; and that which He withholdeth none can
release thereafter. He is the Mighty, the Wise.
3. O mankind! Remember Allah's grace toward you! Is there any creator other than Allah who provideth for you from
the sky and the earth? There is no God save Him. Whither then are ye turned?
4. And if they deny thee, (O Muhammad), messengers (of Allah) were denied before thee. Unto Allah all things are
brought back.
5. O mankind! Lo! the promise of Allah is true. So let not the life of the world beguile you, and let not the (avowed)
beguiler beguile you with regard to Allah.
6. Lo! the devil is an enemy for you, so treat him as an enemy. He only summoneth his faction to be owners of the
Earning Fire.
7. Those who disbelieve, theirs will be an awful doom; and those who believe and do good works, theirs will be
forgiveness and a great reward.
8. Is he, the evil of whose deeds is made fair seeming unto him so that he deemeth it good, (other than Satan's dupe)?
Allah verily sendeth whom He will astray, and guideth whom He will, so let not thy soul expire in sighings for them.
Lo! Allah is Aware of what they do!
9. And Allah it is who sendeth the winds and they raise a cloud; then We lead it unto a dead land and revive therewith
the earth after its death. Such is the Resurrection.
10. Whoso desireth power (should know that) all power belongeth to Allah. Unto Him good words ascend, and the
pious deed doth He exalt; but those who plot iniquities, theirs will be an awful doom; and the plotting of such (folk)
will come to naught.
11. Allah created you from dust, then from a little fluid, then He made you pairs (the male and female). No female
beareth or bringeth forth save with His knowledge. And no one groweth old who groweth old, nor is aught lessened of
his life, but it is recorded in a Book. Lo! that is easy for Allah.
12. And two seas are not alike: this, fresh, sweet, food to drink, this (other) bitter, salt. And from them both ye eat fresh
meat and derive the ornament that ye wear. And thou seest the ship cleaving them with its prow that ye may seek of His
bounty, and that haply ye may give thanks.
13. He maketh the night to pass into the day and He maketh the day to pass into the night. He hath subdued the sun and
moon to service. Each runneth unto an appointed term. Such is Allah, your lord; His is the Sovereignty; and those unto
whom ye pray instead of Him own not so much as the white spot on a date stone.
14. If ye pray unto them they hear not your prayer, and if they heard they could not grant it you. On the Day of
Resurrection they will disown association with you. None can Inform you like Him Who is Aware.
15. O mankind! Ye are the poor in your relation to Allah. And Allah! He is the Absolute, the Owner of Praise.
16. If He will, He can be rid of you and bring (instead of you) some new creation.
17. That is not a hard thing for Allah.
18. And no burdened soul can bear another's burden, and if one heavy laden crieth for (help with) his load, naught of
it will be lifted even though he (unto whom he crieth) be of kin. Thou warnest only those who fear their Lord in secret,
and have established worship. He who groweth (in goodness), groweth only for himself, (he cannot by his merit redeem
others). Unto Allah is the journeying.
19. The blind man is not equal with the seer;
20. Nor is darkness (tantamount to) light;
21. Nor is the shadow equal with the sun's full heat;
22. Nor are the living equal with the dead. Lo! Allah maketh whom He will to hear. Thou canst not reach those who are
in the graves.
23. Thou art but a warner.
24. Lo! We have sent thee with the Truth, a bearer of glad tidings and a warner; and there is not a nation but a warner
hath passed among them.
25. And if they deny thee: those before them also denied. Their messengers came unto them with clear proofs (of
Allah's sovereignty), and with the Psalms and the Scripture giving light.
26. Then seized I those who disbelieved, and how intense was My abhorrence!
27. Hast thou not seen that Allah causeth water to fall from the sky, and We produce therewith fruit of divers hues; and
among the hills are streaks white and red, of divers hues, and (others) raven black;
28. And of men and beasts and cattle, in like manner, divers hues? The erudite among His bondsmen fear Allah alone.
Lo! Allah is Mighty, Forgiving.
29. Lo! those who read the Scripture of Allah, and establish worship, and spend of that which We have bestowed on
them secretly and openly, they look forward to imperishable gain,
30. That He will pay them their wages and Increase them of His grace. Lo! He is Forgiving, Responsive.
31. As for that which We inspire in thee of the Scripture, it is the Truth confirming that which was (revealed) before
it. Lo! Allah is indeed Observer, Seer of his slaves.
32. Then We gave the Scripture as inheritance unto those whom We elected of our bondmen. But of them are some
who wrong themselves and of them are some who are lukewarm and of them are some who outstrip (others) through
good deeds, by Allah's leave. That is the great favour!

33. Gardens of Eden! They enter them wearing armlets of gold and pearl and their raiment therein is silk.
34. And they say: Praise be to Allah who hath put grief away from us. Lo! Our Lord is Forgiving, Bountiful,
35. Who, of His grace, hath installed us in the mansion of eternity, where toil toucheth us not nor can weariness affect
36. But as for those who disbelieve, for them is fire of hell; it taketh not complete effect upon them so that they can
die, nor is its torment lightened for them. Thus We punish every ingrate.
37. And they cry for help there, (saying): Our Lord! Release us; we will do right, not (the wrong) that we used to do.
Did not We grant you a life long enough for who reflected to reflect therein? And the warner came unto you. Now taste
(the flavour of your deeds), for evil doers have no helper.
38. Lo! Allah is the knower of the Unseen of the heavens and the earth. Lo! He is Aware of the secret of (men's)
39. He it is who hath made you regents in the earth; so he who disbelieveth, his disbelief be on his own head. Their
disbelief increaseth for the disbelievers, in their Lord's sight, naught save abhorrence. Their disbelief increaseth for
the disbelievers naught save loss.
40. Say: Have ye seen your partner gods to whom ye pray beside Allah? Show me what they created of the earth! Or
have they any portion in the heavens? Or have We given them a Scripture so that they act on clear proof therefrom?
Nay, the evil doers promise one another only to deceive.
41. Lo! Allah graspeth the heavens and the earth that they deviate not, and if they were to deviate there is not one that
could grasp them after Him. Lo! He is ever Clement, Forgiving.
42. And they swore by Allah, their most binding oath, that if a warner came unto them they would be more tractable
than any of the nations; yet, when a warner came unto them it aroused in them naught save repugnance,
43. (Shown in their) behaving arrogantly in the land and plotting evil; and the evil plot encloseth but the men who make
it. Then, can they expect aught save the treatment of the folk of old? Thou wilt not find for Allah's way of treatment
any substitute, nor wilt thou find for Allah's way of treatment aught of power to change.
44. Have they not travelled in the land and seen the nature of the consequence for those who were before them, and
they were mightier than these in power? Allah is not such that aught in the heavens or in the earth escapeth Him. Lo!
He is the Wise, the Mighty.
45. If Allah took mankind to task by that which they deserve, He would not leave a living creature on the surface of the
earth; but He reprieveth them unto an appointed term, and when their term cometh then verily (they will know that)
Allah is ever Seer of His slaves.
Surah 36. Ya-Sin
1. Ya Sin.
2. By the wise Qur'an,
3. Lo! thou art of those sent
4. On a straight path,
5. A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful,
6. That thou mayst warn a folk whose fathers were not warned, so they are heedless.
7. Already hath the word proved true of most of them, for they believe not.
8. Lo! we have put on their necks carcans reaching unto the chins, so that they are made stiff necked.
9. And We have set a bar before them and a bar behind them, and (thus) have covered them so that they see not.
10. Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not, it is alike for them, for they believe not.
11. Thou warnest only him who followeth the Reminder and feareth the Beneficent in secret. To him bear tidings of
forgiveness and a rich reward.
12. Lo! We it is Who bring the dead to life. We record that which they send before (them), and their footprints. And
all things We have kept in a clear register.
13. Coin for them a similitude: The people of the city when those sent (from Allah) came unto them;
14. When We sent unto them twain, and they denied them both, so We reinforced them with a third, and they said; Lo!
we have been sent unto you.
15. They said: Ye are but mortals like unto us. The Beneficent hath naught revealed. Ye do but lie!
16. They answered: Our lord knoweth that we are indeed sent unto you,
17. And our duty is but plain conveyance (of the message).
18. (The people of the city) said: We augur ill of you. If ye desist not, we shall surely stone you, and grievous torture
will befall you at our hands.
19. They said: Your evil augury be with you! Is it because ye are reminded (of the truth)? Nay, but ye are froward folk?
20. And there came from the uttermost part of the city a man running. He cried: O my people! Follow those who have
been sent!
21. Follow those who ask of you no fee, and who are rightly guided.
22. For what cause should I not serve Him Who hath created me, and unto Whom ye will be brought back?
23. Shall I take (other) gods in place of Him when, if the Beneficent should wish me any harm, their intercession will
avail me naught, nor can they save?
24. Then truly I should be in error manifest.
25. Lo! I have believed in your Lord, so hear met
26. It was said (unto him): Enter Paradise. He said: Would that my people knew
27. With what (munificence) my Lord hath pardoned me and made me of the honoured ones!
28. We sent not down against his people after him a host from heaven, nor do We ever send.
29. It was but one Shout, and lo! they were extinct.
30. Ah, the anguish for the bondmen! Never came there unto them a messenger but they did mock him!
31. Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them, which Indeed return not unto them;
32. But all, without exception, will be brought before Us.
33. A token unto them is the dead earth. We revive it, and We bring forth from it grain so that they eat thereof;
34. And We have placed therein gardens of the date palm and grapes, and We have caused springs of water to gush forth
35. That they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hand made it not. Will they not, then, give thanks?
36. Glory be to Him Who created all the sexual pairs, of that which the earth groweth, and of themselves, and of that
which they know not!
37. A token unto them is night. We strip it of the day, and lo! they are in darkness.
38. And the sun runneth on unto a resting place for him. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.

39. And for the moon We have appointed mansions till she return like an old shrivelled palm leaf.
40. It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor doth the night outstrip the day. They float each in an orbit.
41. And a token unto them is that We bear their offspring in the laden ship,
42. And have created for them of the like thereof whereon they ride.
43. And if We will, We drown them, and there is no help for them, neither can they be saved;
44. Unless by mercy from Us and as comfort for a while.
45. When it is said unto them: Beware of that which is before you and that which is behind you, that haply ye may find
mercy (they are heedless).
46. Never came a token of the tokens of their Lord to them, but they did turn away from it!
47. And when it is said unto them: Spend of that wherewith Allah hath provided you. those who disbelieve say unto
those who believe: Shall we feed those whom Allah, if He willed, would feed? Ye are in naught else than error manifest.
48. And they say: When will this promise be fulfilled, if ye are truthful?
49. They await but one Shout, which will surprise them while they are disputing.
50. Then they cannot make bequest, nor can they return to their own folk.
51. And the trumpet is blown and lo! from the graves they hie unto their Lord,
52. Crying: Woe upon us! Who hath raised us from our place of sleep? This is that which the Beneficent did promise,
and the messengers spoke truth,
53. It is but one Shout, and behold them brought together before Us!
54. This day no soul is wronged in aught; nor are ye requited aught save what ye used to do.
55. Lo! those who merit paradise this day are happily employed,
56. They and their wives, in pleasant shade, on thrones reclining;
57. Theirs the fruit (of their good deeds) and theirs (all) that they ask;
58. The word from a Merciful Lord (for them) is: Peace!
59. But avaunt ye, O ye guilty, this day!
60. Did I not charge you, O ye sons of Adam, that ye worship not the devil Lo! he is your open foe!
61. But that ye worship Me? That was the right path.
62. Yet he hath led astray of you a great multitude. Had ye then no sense?
63. This is hell which ye were promised (if ye followed him).
64. Burn therein this day for that ye disbelieved.
65. This day We seal up mouths, and hands speak out and feet bear witness as to what they used to earn.
66. And had We willed, We verily could have quenched their eyesight so that they should struggle for the way. Then
how could they have seen?
67. And had We willed, We verily could have fixed them in their place, making them powerless to go forward or turn
68. He whom We bring unto old age, We reverse him in creation (making him go back to weakness after strength).
Have ye then no sense?
69. And we have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry, nor is it meet for him. This is naught else than a Reminder and
a Lecture making plain,
70. To warn whosoever liveth, and that the word may be fulfilled against the disbelievers.
71. Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork the cattle, so that they are their owners,
72. And have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding, some for food?
73. Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks?
74. And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped.
75. It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms.
76. So let not their speech grieve thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim.
77. Hath not man seen that We have created him from a drop of seed? Yet lo! he is an open opponent.
78. And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these
bones when they have rotted away?
79. Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation,
80. Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it.
81. Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the like of them? Aye, that He is! for He is the All
Wise Creator,
82. But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that he saith unto it: Be! and it is.
83. Therefor glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion over all things! Unto Him ye will be brought back.
Surah 37. As-Saffat
1. By those who set the ranks in battle order
2. And those who drive away (the wicked) with reproof
3. And those who read (the Word) for a reminder,
4. Lo! thy Lord is surely One.
5. Lord of the heavens and of the earth and all that is between them, and Lord of the sun's risings.
6. Lo! We have adorned the lowest heaven with an ornament, the planets:
7. With security from every froward devil.
8. They cannot listen to the Highest Chiefs for they are pelted from every side,
9. Outcast, and theirs is a perpetual torment;
10. Save him who snatcheth a fragment, and there pursueth him a piercing flame.
11. Then ask them (O Muhammad): Are they stronger as a creation, or those (others) whom We have created? Lo! We
created them of plastic clay.
12. Nay, but thou dost marvel when they mock
13. And heed not when they are reminded,
14. And seek to scoff when they behold a portent
15. And they say: lo! this is mere magic;
16. When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised (again)?

17. And our forefathers?
18. Say (O Muhammad): Yea, in truth; and ye will be brought low.
19. There is but one Shout, and lo! they behold
20. And say: Ah, woe for us! This is the Day of Judgment.
21. This is the Day of Separation, which ye used to deny.
22. (And it is said unto the angels): Assemble those who did wrong, together with their wives and what they used to
23. Instead of Allah, and lead them to the path to hell;
24. And stop them, for they must be questioned.
25. What aileth you that ye help not one another?
26. Nay, but this day they make full submission.
27. And some of them draw near unto others, mutually questioning.
28. They say: Lo! ye used to come unto us, imposing, (swearing that ye spoke the truth).
29. They answer: Nay, but ye (yourselves) were not believers.
30. We had no power over you, but ye were wayward folk.
31. Now the Word of our Lord hath been fulfilled concerning us. Lo! we are about to taste (the doom).
32. Thus we misled you. Lo! we were (ourselves) astray.
33. Then lo! this day they (both) are sharers in the doom.
34. Lo! thus deal We with the guilty.
35. For when it was said unto them, There is no god save Allah, they were scornful
36. And said: Shall we forsake our gods for a mad poet?
37. Nay, but he brought the Truth, and he confirmed those sent (before him).
38. Lo! (now) verily ye taste the painful doom
39. Ye are requited naught save what ye did
40. Save single minded slaves of Allah;
41. For them there is a known provision,
42. Fruits..And they will be honoured
43. In the Gardens of delight,
44. On couches facing one another
45. A cup from a gushing spring is brought round for them,
46. White, delicious to the drinkers,
47. Wherein there is no headache nor are they made mad thereby.
48. And with them are those of modest gaze, with lovely eyes,
49. (Pure) as they were hidden eggs (of the ostrich).
50. And some of them draw near unto others, mutually questioning.
51. A speaker of them saith: Lo! I had a comrade
52. Who used to say: Art thou in truth of those who put faith (in his words)?
53. Can we, when we are dead and have become mere dust and bones, can we (then) verily be brought to book?
54. He saith: Will ye look?
55. Then looketh he and seeth him in the depth of hell.
56. He saith: By Allah, thou verily didst all but cause my ruin,
57. And had it not been for the favour of my Lord, I too had been of those haled forth (to doom).
58. Are we then not to die
59. Saving our former death, and are we not to he punished?
60. Lo! this is the supreme triumph.
61. For the like of this, then, let the workers work.
62. Is this better as a welcome, or the tree of Zaqqam?
63. Lo! We have appointed it a torment for wrong doers.
64. Lo! it is a tree that springeth in the heart of hell
65. Its crop is as it were the heads of devils
66. And lo! they verily must eat thereof, and fill (their) bellies therewith.
67. And afterward, lo! thereupon they have a drink of boiling water
68. And afterward, lo! their return is surely unto hell.
69. They indeed found their fathers astray,
70. But they make haste (to follow) in their footsteps.
71. And verily most of the men of old went astray before them,
72. And verily We sent among them warners.
73. Then see the nature of the consequence for those warned,
74. Save singled minded slaves of Allah.
75. And Noah verily prayed unto Us, and gracious was the Hearer of his prayer
76. And We saved him and his household from the great distress,
77. And made his seed the survivors,
78. And left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
79. Peace be unto Noah among the peoples!
80. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
81. Lo! he is one of Our believing slaves.
82. Then We did drown the others.
83. And lo! of his persuasion verily was Abraham
84. When he came unto his Lord with a whole heart;
85. When he said unto his father and his folk: What is it that ye worship?
86. Is it a falsehood gods beside Allah that ye desire?
87. What then is your opinion of the Lord of the Worlds?
88. And he glanced a glance at the stars
89. Then said: Lo! I feel sick!
90. And they turned their backs and went away from him
91. Then turned he to their gods and said: Will ye not eat?
92. What aileth you that ye speak not?
93. Then he attacked them, striking with his right hand.
94. And (his people) came toward him, hastening.

95. He said: Worship ye that which ye yourselves do carve
96. When Allah hath created you and what ye make?
97. They said: Build for him a building and fling him in the red hot fire.
98. And they designed a snare for him, but We made them the undermost.
99. And he said: Lo! I am going unto my Lord Who will guide me
100. My Lord! Vouchsafe me of the righteous.
101. So We gave him tidings of a gentle son.
102. And when (his son) was old enough to walk with him, (Abraham) said: O my dear son, I have seen in a dream that
I must sacrifice thee. So look, what thinkest thou? He said: O my father! Do that which thou art commanded. Allah
willing, thou shalt find me of the steadfast.
103. Then, when they had both surrendered (to Allah), and he had flung him down upon his face,
104. We called unto him: O Abraham:
105. Thou hast already fulfilled the vision. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
106. Lo! that verily was a clear test.
107. Then We ransomed him with a tremendous victim.
108. And We left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
109. Peace be unto Abraham!
110. Thus do We reward the good.
111. Lo! he is one of Our believing slaves.
112. And We gave him tidings of the birth of Isaac, a Prophet of the righteous.
113. And We blessed him and Isaac. And of their seed are some who do good, and some who plainly wrong themselves.
114. And We verily gave grace unto Moses and Aaron,
115. And saved them and their people from the great distress,
116. And helped them so that they became the victors.
117. And We gave them the clear Scripture
118. And showed them the right path.
119. And We left for them, among the later folk (the salutation):
120. Peace be unto Moses and Aaron!
121. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
122. Lo! they are two of our believing slaves.
123. And lo! Elias was of those sent (to warn)
124. When he said unto his folk: Will ye not ward off (evil)?
125. Will ye cry unto Baal and forsake the best of Creators,
126. Allah, your Lord and Lord of your forefathers?
127. But they denied him, so they surely will be haled forth (to the doom)
128. Save single minded slaves of Allah.
129. And we left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
130. Peace be unto Elias!
131. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
132. Lo! he is one of our believing slaves.
133. And lo! Lot verily was of those sent (to warn),
134. When We saved him and his household, every one,
135. Save an old woman among those who stayed behind;
136. Then We destroyed the others.
137. And Lo! ye verily pass by (the ruin of) them in the morning
138. And at night time; have ye then no sense?
139. And lo! Jonah verily was of those sent (to warn)
140. When he fled unto the laden ship,
141. And then drew lots and was of those rejected;
142. And the fish swallowed him while be was blameworthy;
143. And had he not been one of those who glorify (Allah)
144. He would have tarried in its belly till the day when they are raised;
145. Then We cast him on a desert shore while he was sick;
146. And We caused a tree of gourd to grow above him;
147. And We sent him to a hundred thousand (folk) or more
148. And they believed, therefor We gave them comfort for a while.
149. Now ask them (O Muhammad): Hath thy Lord daughters whereas they have sons?
150. Or created We the angels females while they were present?
151. Lo! it is of their falsehood that they say:
152. Allah hath begotten. And lo! verily they tell a lie.
153. (And again of their falsehood): He hath preferred daughters to sons
154. What aileth you? How judge ye?
155. Will ye not then reflect?
156. Or have ye a clear warrant?
157. Then produce your writ, if ye are truthful.
158. And they imagine kinship between him and the jinn, whereas the jinn know well that they will be brought before
159. Glorified be Allah from that which they attribute (unto Him),
160. Save single minded slaves of Allah.
161. Lo! verily, ye and that which ye worship,
162. Ye cannot excite (anyone) against Him
163. Save him who is to burn in hell.

164. There is not one of Us but hath his known position.
165. Lo! We, even We are they who set the ranks.
166. Lo! We, even We are they who hymn His praise
167. And indeed they used to say:
168. If we had but a reminder from the men of old
169. We would be single minded slaves of Allah.
170. Yet (now that it is come) the, disbelieve therein: but they will come to know.
171. And verily Our word went forth of old unto Our bondmen sent (to warn)
172. That they verily would be helped,
173. And that Our host, they verily would be the victors.
174. So withdraw from them (O Muhammad) awhile,
175. And watch, for they will (soon) see.
176. Would they hasten on Our doom?
177. But when it cometh home to them, then it will be a hapless morn for those who have been warned.
178. Withdraw from them awhile
179. And watch, for they will (soon) see.
180. Glorified be thy Lord, the Lord of Majesty, from that which they attribute (unto Him)
181. And peace be unto those sent (to warn).
182. And praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds!
Surah 38. Sad
1. Sad. By the renowned Qur'an,
2. Nay, but those who disbelieve are in false pride and schism.
3. How many a generation We destroyed before them, and they cried out when it was no longer the time for escape!
4. And they marvel that a warner from among themselves hath come unto them, and the disbelievers say: This is a
wizard, a charlatan.
5. Maketh he the gods One God? Lo! that is an astounding thing.
6. The chiefs among them go about, exhorting: Go and be staunch to your gods! Lo! this is a thing designed.
7. We have not heard of this in later religion. This is naught but an invention.
8. Hath the reminder been revealed unto him (alone) among us? Nay, but they are in doubt concerning My reminder;
nay but they have not yet tasted My doom.
9. Or are theirs the treasures of the mercy of thy Lord, the Mighty, the Bestower?
10. Or is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them theirs? Then let them ascend by ropes!
11. A defeated host are (all) the factions that are there.
12. The folk of Noah before them denied (their messenger) and (so did the tribe of) Aad, and Pharaoh firmly planted,
13. And (the tribe of) Thamud; and the folk of Lot, and the dwellers in the wood: these were the factions.
14. Not one of them but did deny the messengers, therefor My doom was justified,
15. These wait for but one Shout, there will be no second thereto.
16. They say: Our Lord! Hasten on for us our fate before the Day of Reckoning.
17. Bear with what they say, and remember Our bondman David, lord of might. Lo! he was ever turning in repentance
(toward Allah).
18. Lo! We subdued the hills to hymn the praises (of their Lord) with him at nightfall and sunrise,
19. And the birds assembled; all were turning unto Him
20. We made his kingdom strong and gave him wisdom and decisive speech.
21. And hath the story of the litigants come unto thee? How they climbed the wall into the royal chamber;
22. How they burst in upon David, and he was afraid of them. They said Be not afraid (We are) two litigants, one of
whom hath wronged the other, therefor judge aright between us; be not unjust; and show us the fair way.
23. Lo! this my brother hath ninety and nine ewes while I had one ewe; and he said: Entrust it to me, and he conquered
me in speech.
24. (David) said : He hath wronged thee in demanding thine ewe in addition to his ewes, and lo! many partners oppress
one another, save such as believe and do good works, and they are few. And David guessed that We had tried him, and
he sought forgiveness of his Lord, and he bowed himself and fell down prostrate and repented.
25. So We forgave him that; and lo! he had access to Our presence and a happy journey's end.
26. (And it was said unto him): O David! Lo! We have set thee as a viceroy in the earth; therefor judge aright between
mankind, and follow not desire that it beguile thee from the way of Allah. Lo! those who wander from the way of Allah
have an awful doom, forasmuch as they forgot the Day of Reckoning.
27. And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them in vain. That is the opinion of those who
disbelieve. And woe unto those who disbelieve, from the Fire!
28. Shall We treat those who believe and do good works as those who spread corruption in the earth; or shall We treat
the Pious as the wicked?
29. (This is) a Scripture that We have revealed unto thee, full of blessing, that they may ponder its revelations, and that
men of understanding may reflect.
30. And We bestowed on David, Solomon. How excellent a slave! Lo! he was ever turning in repentance (toward Allah).
31. When there were shown to him at eventide light footed coursers
32. And he said: Lo! I have preferred the good things (of the world) to the remembrance of my Lord; till they were
taken out of sight behind the curtain.
33. (Then he said): Bring them back to me, and fell to slashing (with his sword their) legs and necks.
34. And verily We tried Solomon, and set upon his throne a (mere) body. Then did he repent.
35. He said: My Lord! Forgive me and bestow on me sovereignty such shall not belong to any after me. Lo! Thou art
the Bestower.
36. So We made the wind subservient unto him, setting fair by his command whithersoever he intended.
37. And the unruly, every builder and diver (made We subservient),
38. And others linked together in chains,
39. (Saying): This is Our gift, so bestow thou, or withhold, without reckoning.
40. And lo! he hath favour with Us, and a happy journey's end.
41. And make mention (O Muhammad) of Our bondman Job, when he cried unto his Lord (saying): Lo! the devil doth
afflict me with distress and torment.
42. (And it was said unto him): Strike the ground with thy foot. This (spring) is a cool bath and a refreshing drink.
43. And We bestowed on him (again) his household and therewith the like thereof, a mercy from Us, and a memorial
for men of understanding.

44. And (it was said unto him): Take in thine hand a branch and smite therewith, and break not twine oath. Lo! We found
him steadfast, how excellent a slave! Lo! he was ever turning in repentance (to his Lord).
45. And me mention of our bondmen, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, men of parts and vision.
46. Lo! We purified them with a pure thought, remembrance of the Home (of the Hereafter).
47. Lo! in Our sight they are verily of the elect, the excellent.
48. And make mention of Ishmael and Elisha and Dhul Kifl. All are of the chosen.
49. This is a reminder. And lo! for those who ward off (evil) is a happy journey's end,
50. Gardens of Eden, whereof the gates are opened for them.
51. Wherein, reclining, they call for plenteous fruit and cool drink (that is) therein.
52. And with them are those of modest gaze, companions.
53. This it is that ye are promised for the Day of Reckoning.
54. Lo! this in truth is Our provision, which will never waste away.
55. This (is for the righteous). And lo! for the transgressors there will be an evil journey's end,
56. Hell, where they will burn, an evil resting place.
57. Here is a boiling and an ice cold draught, so let them taste it,
58. And other (torment) of the kind in pairs (the two extremes)!
59. Here is an army rushing blindly with you. (Those who are already in the fire say): No word of welcome for them.
Lo! they will roast at the Fire.
60. They say: Nay, but you (misleaders), for you there is no word of welcome. Ye prepared this for us (by your
misleading). Now hapless is the plight.
61. They say: Our Lord! Whoever did prepare this for Us, oh, give him double portion of the Fire!
62. And they say: What aileth us that we behold not men whom we were wont to count among the wicked?
63. Did we take them (wrongly) for a laughing stock, or have our eyes missed them?
64. Lo! that is very truth: the wrangling of the dwellers in the Fire.
65. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): I am only a warner, and there is no God save Allah, the One, the Absolute,
66. Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, the Mighty, the Pardoning.
67. Say: It is tremendous tidings
68. Whence ye turn away!
69. I had no knowledge of the Highest Chiefs when they disputed;
70. It is revealed unto me only that I may be a plain warner.
71. When thy Lord said unto the angels: lo! I am about to create a mortal out of mire,
72. And when I have fashioned him and breathed into him of My spirit, then fall down before him prostrate,
73. The angels fell down prostrate, every one.
74. Saving Iblis, he was scornful and became one of the disbelievers.
75. He said: O Iblis! What hindereth thee from falling prostrate before that which I have created with both My hands?
Art thou too proud or art thou of the high
76. He said: I am better than him. Thou createdst me off fire, whilst him Thou didst create of clay.
77. He said: Go forth from hence, for lo! thou art outcast,
78. And lo! My curse is on thee till the Day of Judgment.
79. He said: My Lord! Reprieve me till the day when they are raised.
80. He said: Lo! thou art of those reprieved
81. Until the day of the time appointed.
82. He said: Then, by Thy might, I surely will beguile them every one,
83. Save Thy single minded slaves among them.
84. He said: The Truth is, and the Truth I speak,
85. That I shall fill hell with thee and with such of them as follow thee, together.
86. Say (O Muhammad, unto mankind): I ask of you no fee for this, and I am no impostor.
87. Lo! it is naught else than a reminder for all peoples
88. And ye will come in time to know the truth thereof.
Surah 39. Az-Zumar
1. The revelation of the Scripture is from Allah, the Mighty, the Wise.
2. Lo! We have revealed the Scripture unto thee (Muhammad) with truth; so worship Allah, making religion pure for
Him (only).
3. Surely Pure religion is for Allah only. And those who choose protecting friends beside Him (say): We worship them
only that they may bring us near unto Allah. Lo! Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they differ.
Lo! Allah guideth not him who is a liar, an ingrate.
4. If Allah had willed to choose a son, he could have chosen what he would of that which He hath created. Be He
glorified! He is Allah, the One, the Absolute.
5. He hath created the heavens and the earth with truth. He maketh night to succeed day, and He maketh day to succeed
night, and He constraineth the sun and the moon to give service, each running on for an appointed term. Is not He the
Mighty, the Forgiver?
6. He created you from one being, then from that (being) He made its mate; and He hath provided for you of cattle eight
kinds. He created you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, in a threefold gloom. Such is Allah, your
Lord. His is the Sovereignty. There is no God save Him. How then are ye turned away?
7. If ye are thankless, yet Allah is Independent of you, though He is not pleased with thanklessness for His bondmen;
and if ye are thankful He is pleased therewith for you. No laden soul will bear another's load. Then unto your Lord is
your return; and He will tell you what ye used to do. Lo! He knoweth what is in the breasts (of men).
8. And then some hurt toucheth man, he crieth unto his Lord, turning unto Him (repentant). Then, when He granteth
him a boon from Him he forgetteth that for which he cried unto Him before, and setteth up rivals to Allah that he may
beguile (men) from His way. Say (O Muhammad, unto such an one): Take pleasure in thy disbelief a while. Lo! thou
art of the owners of the Fire.

9. Is he who payeth adoration in the watches of the night, prostrate and standing, bewaring of the Hereafter and hoping
for the mercy of his Lord, (to be accounted equal with a disbeliever)? Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Are those who
know equal with those who know not? But only men of understanding will pay heed.
10. Say: O My bondmen who believe! Observe your duty to your Lord. For those who do good in this world there is
good, and Allah's earth is spacious. Verily the steadfast will be paid their wages without stint.
11. Say (O Muhammad): Lo! I am commanded to worship Allah, making religion pure for Him (only).
12. And I am commanded to be the first of those who surrender (unto Him).
13. Say: Lo! if I should disobey my Lord, I fear the doom of a tremendous Day.
14. Say: Allah I worship, making my religion pure for Him (only).
15. Then worship what ye will beside Him. Say: The losers will be those who lose themselves and their housefolk on
the Day of Resurrection. Ah, that will be the manifest loss!
16. They have an awning of fire above them and beneath them a dais (of fire). With this doth Allah appall His bondmen.
O My bondmen, therefor fear Me!
17. And those who put away false gods lest they should worship them and turn to Allah in repentance, for them there
are glad tidings. Therefor give good tidings (O Muhammad) to my bondmen
18. Who hear advice and follow the best thereof. Such are those whom Allah guideth, and such are men of

the Fire?
20. But those who keep their duty to their Lord, for them are lofty halls with lofty hails above them, built (for them),
beneath which rivers flow. (It is) a promise of Allah. Allah faileth not His promise.
21. Hast thou not seen how Allah hath sent down water from the sky and hath caused it to penetrate the earth as water
springs, and afterward thereby produceth crops of divers hues; and afterward they wither and thou seest them turn
yellow; then He maketh them chaff. Lo! herein verily is a reminder for men of understanding.
22. Is he whose bosom Allah hath expanded for the Surrender (unto Him), so that he followeth a light from His Lord,
(as he who disbelieveth)? Then woe unto those whose hearts are hardened against remembrance of Allah. Such are in
plain error.
23. Allah hath (now) revealed the fairest of statements, a Scripture consistent, (wherein promises of reward are) paired
(with threats of punishment), whereat doth creep the flesh of those who fear their Lord, so that their flesh and their
hearts soften to Allah's reminder. Such is Allah's guidance, where with He guideth whom He will. And him whom Allah
sendeth astray, for him there is no guide.
24. Is he then, who will strike his face against the awful doom upon the Day of Resurrection (as he who doeth right)?
And it will be said unto the wrong doers: Taste what ye used to earn.
25. Those before them denied, and so the doom came on them whence they knew not.
26. Thus Allah made them taste humiliation in the life of the world, and verily the doom of the Hereafter will be greater
if they did but know.
27. And verily We have coined for mankind in this Qur'an all kinds of similitudes, that haply they may reflect;
28. A Lecture in Arabic, containing no crookedness, that haply they may ward off (evil).
29. Allah coineth a similitude: A man in relation to whom are several part owners, quarrelling, and a man belonging
wholly to one man. Are the two equal in similitude? Praise be to Allah! But most of them know not.
30. Lo! thou wilt die, and lo! they will die;
31. Then lo! on the Day of Resurrection, before your Lord ye will dispute.
32. And who doth greater wrong than he who telleth a lie against Allah, and denieth the truth when it reacheth him? Will
not the home of disbelievers be in hell?
33. And whoso bringeth the truth and believeth therein Such are the dutiful.
34. They shall have what they will of their Lord's bounty. That is the reward of the good:
35. That Allah will remit from them the worst of what they did, and will pay them for reward the best they used to Jo.
36. Will not Allah defend His slave? Yet they would frighten thee with those beside Him. He whom Allah sendeth
astray, for him there is no guide.
37. And he whom Allah guideth, for him there can be no misleader. Is not Allah Mighty, Able to Requite (the wrong)?
38. And verily, if thou shouldst ask them: Who created the heavens and the earth? they will say: Allah. Say: Bethink
you then of those ye worship beside Allah, if Allah willed some hurt for me, could they remove from me His hurt; or
if He willed some mercy for me, could they restrain His mercy? Say: Allah is my all. In Him do (all) the trusting put
their trust.
39. Say: O my people! Act in your manner. I too am acting. Thus ye will come to know
40. Who it is unto whom cometh a doom that will abase him, and on whom there falleth everlasting doom.
41. Lo! We have revealed unto thee (Muhammad) the Scripture for mankind with truth. Then whosoever goeth right
it is for his soul, and whosoever strayeth, strayeth only to its hurt. And thou art not a warder over them.
42. Allah receiveth (men's) souls at the time of their death, and that (soul) which dieth not (yet) in its sleep. He keepeth
that (soul) for which He hath ordained death and dismisseth the rest till an appointed term. Lo herein verily are portents
for people who take thought.
43. Or choose they intercessors other than Allah? Say: What! Even though they have power over nothing and have no
44. Say: Unto Allah belongeth all intercession. His is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. And afterward unto
Him ye will be brought back.
45. And when Allah alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who believe not in the Hereafter are repelled, and when
those (whom they worship) beside Him are mentioned, behold! they are glad.
46. Say: O Allah! Creator of the heavens and the earth! Knower of the invisible and the visible! Thou wilt judge between
Thy slaves concerning that wherein they used to differ.
47. And though those who do wrong possess all that is in the earth, and therewith as much again, the verily will seek
to ransom themselves therewith on the Day of Resurrection from the awful doom; and there will appear unto them,
from their Lord, that wherewith they never reckoned.
48. And the evils that they earned will appear unto them, and that whereat they used to scoff will surround them.
49. Now when hurt toucheth a man he crieth unto Us, and afterward when We have granted him a boon from Us, he
saith: Only by force of knowledge I obtained it. Nay, but it is a test. But most of them know not.
50. Those before them said it, yet (all) that they had earned availed them not;
51. But the evils that they earned smote them; and such of these as do wrong, the evils that they earn will smite them;
they cannot escape.
52. Know they not that Allah enlargeth providence for whom He will, and straiteneth it (for whom He will). Lo! herein
verily are portents for people who believe.

Lo! He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.
54. Turn unto Him repentant, and surrender unto Him, before there come unto you the doom, when ye cannot be helped.
55. And follow the better (guidance) of that which is revealed unto you from your Lord, before the doom cometh on
you suddenly when ye know not,
56. Lest any soul should say Alas, my grief that I was unmindful of Allah, and I was indeed among the scoffers!
57. Or should say: if Allah had but guided me I should have been among the dutiful!
58. Or should say, when it seeth the doom: Oh, that I had but a second chance that I might be among the righteous!
59. (But now the answer will be): Nay, for My revelations came unto thee, but thou didst deny them and wast scornful
and wast among the disbelievers.
60. And on the Day of Resurrection thou (Muhammad) seest those who lied concerning Allah with their faces
blackened. Is not the home of the scorners in hell?
61. And Allah delivereth those who ward off (evil) because of their deserts. Evil toucheth them not, nor do they grieve.
62. Allah is Creator of all things, and He is Guardian over all things.
63. His are the keys of the heavens and the earth, and they who disbelieve the revelations of Allah such are they who
are the losers.
64. Say (O Muhammad, to the disbelievers): Do ye bid me serve other than Allah? O ye fools!
65. And verily it hath been revealed unto thee as unto those before thee (saying): If thou ascribe a partner to Allah thy
work will fail and thou indeed wilt be among the losers.
66. Nay, but Allah must thou serve, and be among the thankful!
67. And they esteem not Allah as He hath the right to be esteemed, when the whole earth is His handful on the Day of
Resurrection, and the heavens are rolled in His right hand. Glorified is He and High Exalted from all that they ascribe
as partner (unto Him).
68. And the trumpet is blown, and all who are in the heavens and the earth swoon away, save him whom Allah willeth.
Then it is blown a second time, and behold them standing waiting!
69. And the earth shineth with the light of her Lord, and the Book is set up, and the Prophets and the witnesses are
brought, and it is judged between them with truth, and they are not wronged.
70. And each soul is paid in full for what it did. And He is best aware of what they do.
71. And those who disbelieve are driven unto hell in troops till, when they reach it and the gates thereof are opened,
and the warders thereof say unto them: Came there not unto you messenger's of your own, reciting unto you the
revelations of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this your Day? they say Yea, verily. But the word of doom
for disbelievers is fulfilled.
72. It is said (unto them): Enter ye the gates of hell to dwell therein. Thus hapless is the journey's end of the scorners.
73. And those who keep their duty to their Lord are driven unto the Garden in troops till, when they reach it, and the
gates thereof are opened, and the warders thereof say unto them: Peace be unto you! Ye are good, so enter ye (the
Garden of delight), to dwell therein;
74. They say: Praise be to Allah, Who hath fulfilled His promise unto us and hath made us inherit the land, sojourning
in the Garden where we will! So bounteous is the wage of workers.
75. And thou (O Muhammad) seest the angels thronging round the Throne, hymning the praises of their Lord. And they
are judged aright. And it is said: Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds!
Surah 40. Al-Mu'min
1. Ha. Mim.
2. The revelation of the Scripture is from Allah, the Mighty, the Knower,
3. The Forgiver of sin, the Acceptor of repentance, the Stern in punishment, the Bountiful. There is no God save Him.
Unto Him is the journeying.
4. None argue concerning the revelations of Allah save those who disbelieve, so let not their turn of fortune in the land
deceive thee (O Muhammad).
5. The folk of Noah and the factions after them denied (their messengers) before these, and every nation purposed to
seize their messenger and argued falsely, (thinking) thereby to refute the Truth. Then I seized them, and how (awful)
was My punishment.
6. Thus was the word of thy Lord concerning those who disbelieve fulfilled: that they are owners of the Fire.
7. Those who bear the Throne, and all who are round about it, hymn the praises of their Lord and believe in Him and
ask forgiveness for those who believe (saying): Our Lord! Thou comprehendest all things in mercy and knowledge,
therefor forgive those who repent and follow Thy way. Ward of from them the punishment of hell.
8. Our Lord! And make them enter the Gardens of Eden which thou hast promised them, with such of their fathers and
their wives and their descendants as do right. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Mighty, the Wise.
9. And ward off from them ill deeds; and he from whom Thou wardest off ill deeds that day, him verily hast Thou taken
into mercy. That is the supreme triumph.
10. Lo! (on that day) those who disbelieve are informed by proclamation: Verily Allah's abhorrence is more terrible
than your abhorrence one of another, when ye were called unto the faith but did refuse.
11. They say: Our Lord! Twice hast Thou made us die, and twice hast Thou made us live. Now we confess our sins. Is
there any way to go out?
12. (It is said unto them): This is (your plight) because, when Allah only was invoked, ye disbelieved, but when some
partner was ascribed to Him ye were believing. But the command belongeth only to Allah, the Sublime, the Majestic.
13. He it is who showeth you His portents, and sendeth down for you provision from the sky. None payeth heed save
him who turneth (unto Him) repentant.
14. Therefor (O believers) pray unto Allah, making religion pure for Him (only), however much the disbelievers be
15. The Exalter of Ranks, the Lord of the Throne. He casteth the Spirit of His command upon whom He will of His
slaves, that He may warn of the Day of Meeting,
16. The day when they come forth, nothing of them being hidden from Allah. Whose is the sovereignty this day? It is
Allah's, the One, the Almighty.
17. This day is each soul requited that which it hath earned; no wrong (is done) this day. Lo! Allah is swift at reckoning.
18. Warn them (O Muhammad) of the Day of the approaching (doom), when the hearts will be choking the throats,
(when) there will be no friend for the wrong doers, nor any intercessor who will be heard.

the Seer.
21. Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for those who disbelieved before them?
They were mightier than these in power and (in the) traces (which they left behind them) in the earth. Yet Allah sewed
them for their sins, and they had no protector from Allah.
22. That was because their messengers kept bringing them clear proofs (of Allah's sovereignty) but they disbelieved;
so Allah seized them. Lo! He is Strong, Severe in punishment.
23. And verily We sent Moses with Our revelations and a clear warrant
24. Unto Pharaoh and Haman and Korah, but they said: A lying sorcerer!

then some of that wherewith he threateneth you will strike you. Lo! Allah guideth not one who is a prodigal, a liar.
29. O my people! Yours is the kingdom today, ye being uppermost in the land. But who would save us from the wrath
of Allah should it reach us? Pharaoh said: I do but show you what I think, and I do but guide you to wise policy.
30. And he who believed said: O my people! Lo! I fear for you a fate like that of the factions (of old);
31. A plight like that of Noah's folk, and Aad and Thamud, and those after them, and Allah willeth no injustice for (His)
32. And, O my people! Lo! I fear for a Day of Summoning,
33. A day when ye will turn to flee, having no preserver from Allah: and he whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there
is no guide.
34. And verily Joseph brought you of old clear proofs, yet ye ceased not to be in doubt concerning what be brought
you till, when he died, he said: Allah will not send any messenger after him. Thus Allah deceiveth him who is a prodigal,
a doubter.
35. Those who wrangle concerning the revelations of Allah without any warrant that hath come unto them, it is greatly
hateful in the sight of Allah and in the sight of those who believe. Thus doth Allah print on every arrogant, disdainful
36. And Pharaoh said: O Haman! Build for me a tower that haply I may reach the roads,
37. The roads of the heavens, and may look upon the God of Moses, though verily I think him a liar. Thus was the evil
that he did made fair seeming unto Pharaoh, and he was debarred from the (right) way. The plot of Pharaoh ended but
in ruin.
38. And he who believed said: O my people! Follow, me. I will show you the way of right conduct.
39. O my people! Lo! this life of the world is but a passing comfort, and lo! the Hereafter, that is the enduring home.
40. Whoso doeth an ill deed, he will be repaid the like thereof, while whoso doeth right, whether male or female, and
is a believer, (all) such will enter the Garden, where they will be nourished without stint.
41. And, O my people! What aileth me that I call you unto deliverance when ye call me unto the Fire?
42. Ye call me to disbelieve in Allah and ascribe unto Him as partners that whereof I have no knowledge, while I call
you unto the Mighty, the Forgiver.
43. Assuredly that whereunto ye call me hath no claim in the world or in the Hereafter, and our return will be unto
Allah, and the prodigals will be owners of the fire.
44. And ye will remember what I say unto you. I confide my cause unto Allah. Lo! Allah is Seer of (His) slaves.
45. So Allah warded off from him the evils which they plotted, while a dreadful doom encompassed Pharaoh's folk.
46. The Fire; they are exposed to it morning and evening; and on the day when the Hour upriseth (it is said): Cause
Pharaoh's folk to enter the most awful doom.
47. And when they wrangle in the fire, the weak say unto those who were proud: Lo! we were a following unto you: will
ye therefor rid us of a portion of the Fire?
48. Those who were proud say: Lo! we are all (together) herein. Lo! Allah hath judged between (His) slaves.
49. And those in the Fire say unto the guards of hell: Entreat your Lord that He relieve us of a day of the torment.
50. They say: Came not your messengers unto you with clear proofs? They say: Yea, verily. They say: Then do ye pray,
although the prayer of disbelievers is in vain.
51. Lo! We verily do help Our messengers, and those who believe, in the life of the world and on the day when the
witnesses arise,
52. The day when their excuse availeth not the evil doers, and theirs is the curse, and theirs the ill abode.
53. And we verily gave Moses the guidance, and We caused the Children of Israel to inherit the Scripture,
54. A guide and a reminder for men of understanding.
55. Then have patience (O Muhammad). Lo! the promise of Allah is true. And ask forgiveness of thy sin, and hymn the
praise of thy Lord at fall of night and in the early hours.
56. Lo! those who wrangle concerning the revelations of Allah without a warrant having come unto them, there is
naught else in their breasts save pride which they will never attain. So take thou refuge in Allah. Lo! He, only He, is
the Hearer, the Seer.
57. Assuredly the creation of the heavens and the earth is greater than the creation of mankind; but most of mankind
know not.
58. And the blind man and the seer are not equal, neither are those who believe and do good works (equal with) the evil
doer. Little do ye reflect!
59. Lo! the Hour is surely coming, there is no doubt thereof; yet most of mankind believe not.
60. And your Lord hath said: Pray unto me and I will hear your prayer. Lo! those who scorn My service, they will enter
hell, disgraced.
61. Allah it is Who hath appointed for you night that ye may rest therein, and day for seeing. Lo! Allah is a Lord of
bounty for mankind, yet most of mankind give not thanks.
62. Such is Allah, your Lord, the Creator of all things. There is no God save Him. How then are ye perverted?
63. Thus are they perverted who deny the revelations of Allah.

64. Allah it is Who appointed for you the earth for a dwelling place and the sky for a canopy, and fashioned you and
perfected your shapes, and hath provided you with good things. Such is Allah, your Lord. Then blessed be Allah, the
Lord of the Worlds!
65. He is the Living One. There is no God save Him. So pray unto Him, making religion pure for Him (only). Praise
be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds!
66. Say (O Muhammad): I am forbidden to worship those unto whom ye cry beside Allah since there have come unto
me clear proofs from my Lord, and I am commanded to surrender to the Lord of the Worlds.
67. He it is Who created you from dust, then from a drop (of seed) then from a clot, then bringeth you forth as a child,
then (ordaineth) that ye attain full strength and afterward that ye become old men though some among you die before
and that ye reach an appointed term, that haply ye may understand.
68. He it is who quickeneth and giveth death. When He ordaineth a thing, He saith unto it only: Be! and it is.
69. Hast thou not seen those who wrangle concerning the revelations of Allah, how they are turned away?
70. Those who deny the Scripture and that wherewith we send Our messengers. But they will come to know,
71. When carcans are about their necks and chains. They are dragged
72. Through boiling waters; then they are thrust into the Fire.
73. Then it is said unto them: Where are (all) that ye used to make partners (in the Sovereignty)
74. Beside Allah? They say: They have failed us: but we used not to pray to anything before. Thus doth Allah send astray
the disbelievers (in His guidance).
75. (And it is said unto them): This is because ye exulted in the earth without right, and because ye were petulant.
76. Enter ye the gates of hell, to dwell therein. Evil is the habitation of the scornful.
77. Then have patience (O Muhammad). Lo! the promise of Allah is true. And whether we let thee see a part of that
which We promise them, or (whether) We cause thee to die, still unto us they will be brought back.
78. Verily We sent messengers before thee, among them those of whom We have told thee, and some of whom We
have not told thee; and it was not given to any messenger that he should bring a portent cave by Allah's leave, but when
Allah's commandment cometh (the cause) is judged aright, and the followers of vanity will then be lost.
79. Allah it is Who hath appointed for you cattle, that ye may ride on some of them, and eat of some
80. (Many) benefits ye have from them and that ye may satisfy by their means a need that is in your breasts, and may
be borne upon them as upon the ship.
81. And He showeth you His tokens. Which, then, of the tokens of Allah do ye deny?
82. Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for those before them? They were more
numerous than these, and mightier in power and (in the) traces (which they left behind them) in the earth. But all that
they used to earn availed them not.
83. And when their messengers brought them clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty) they exulted in the knowledge they
(themselves) possessed. And that which they were wont to mock befell them.
84. Then, when they saw Our doom, they said: We believe in Allah only and reject (all) that we used to associate (with
85. But their faith could not avail them when they saw Our doom. This is Allah's law which hath ever taken course for
his Bondsmen. And then the disbelievers will be ruined.
Surah 41. Ha-Mim
1. Ha. Mim.
2. A revelation from the Beneficent, the Merciful,
3. A scripture whereof the verses are expounded, a Lecture in Arabic for people who have knowledge.
4. Good tidings and a warning. But most of them turn away so that they hear not.
5. And they say: Our hearts are protected from that unto which thou (O Muhammad) callest us, and in our ears there
is a deafness, and between us and thee there is a veil. Act, then. Lo! we also shall be acting.
6. Say (unto them O Muhammad): I am only a mortal like you. It is inspired in me that your God is One God, therefor
take the straight path unto Him and seek forgiveness of Him. And woe unto the idolaters,
7. Who give not the poor due, and who are disbelievers in the Hereafter.
8. Lo! as for those who believe and do good works, for them is a reward enduring.
9. Say (O Muhammad, unto the idolaters): Disbelieve ye verily in Him Who created the earth in two Days, and ascribe
ye unto Him rivals? He (and none else) is the Lord of the Worlds.
10. He placed therein firm hills rising above it, and blessed it and measured therein its sustenance in four Days, alike
for (all) who ask;
11. Then turned He to the heaven when it was smoke, and said unto it and unto the earth: Come both of you, willingly
or loth. They said: We come, obedient.
12. Then He ordained them seven heavens in two Days and inspired in each heaven its mandate; and we decked the
nether heaven with lamps, and rendered it inviolable. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Knower.
13. But if they turn away, then say: I warn you of a thunderbolt like the thunderbolt (which fell of old upon the tribes)
of Aad and Thamud;
14. When their messengers came unto them from before them and behind them, saying: Worship none but Allah! they
said: If our Lord had willed, He surely would have sent down angels (unto us), so lo! we are disbelievers in that
wherewith ye have been sent.
15. As for Aad, they were arrogant in the land without right, and they said: Who is mightier than us in power? Could
they not see that Allah Who created them, He was mightier than them in power? And they denied Our revelations.
16. Therefor We let loose on them a raging wind in evil days, that We might make them taste the torment of disgrace
in the life of the world. And verily the doom of the Hereafter will be more shameful, and they will not be helped.
17. And as for Thamud, We gave them guidance, but they preferred blindness to the guidance, so the bolt of the doom
of humiliation overtook them because of what they used to earn.
18. And We delivered those who believed and used to keep their duty to Allah.
19. And (make mention of) the day when the enemies of Allah are gathered unto the Fire, they are driven on
20. Till, when they reach it, their ears and their eyes and their skins testify against them as to what they used to do.
21. And they say unto their skins: Why testify ye against us? They say: Allah hath given us speech Who giveth speech
to all things, and Who created you at the first, and unto Whom ye are returned.
22. Ye did not hide yourselves lest your ears and your eyes and your skins should testify against you, but ye deemed
that Allah knew riot much of what ye did.
23. That, your thought which ye did think about your Lord, hath ruined you; and ye find yourselves (this day) among
the lost.

24. And though they are resigned, yet the Fire is still their home; and if they ask for favour, yet they are not of those
unto whom favour can be shown.
25. And We assigned them comrades (in the world), who made their present and their past fair seeming unto them. And
the Word concerning nations of the jinn and humankind who passed away before them hath effect for them. Verily they

26. Those who disbelieve say: Heed not this Qur'an, and drown the hearing of it; haply ye may conquer.
27. But verily We shall cause those who disbelieve to taste an awful doom, and verily We shall requite them the worst

28. That is the reward of Allah's enemies: the Fire. Therein is their immortal home; payment forasmuch as they denied
Our revelations.
29. And those who disbelieve will say: Our Lord! Show us these who beguiled us of the jinn and humankind. We will
place them underneath our feet that they may be among the nethermost.
30. Lo! those who say: Our Lord is Allah, and afterward are upright, the angels descend upon them, saying: Fear not

31. We are your protecting friends in the life of the world and in the Hereafter. There ye will have (all) that your souls

35. But none is granted it save those who are steadfast, and none is granted it save the owner of great happiness.

44. And if We had appointed it a Lecture in a foreign tongue they would assuredly have said: If only its verses were
expounded (so that we might understand)? What! A foreign tongue and an Arab? Say unto them (O Muhammad): For

We verily shall tell those who disbelieve (all) that they did, and We verily shall make them taste hard punishment

the wrong doers have no friend nor helper.
9. Or have they chosen protecting friends besides Him? But Allah, He (alone) is the Protecting Friend. He quickeneth
the dead, and He is Able to do all things.
10. And in whatsoever ye differ, the verdict therein belongeth to Allah. Such is my Lord, in Whom I put my trust, and
unto Whom I turn.
11. The Creator of the heavens and the earth. He hath made for you pairs of yourselves, and of the cattle also pairs,
whereby He multiplieth you. Naught is as His likeness; and He is the Hearer, the Seer.
12. His are the keys of the heavens and the earth. He enlargeth providence for whom He will and straiteneth (it for
whom He will). Lo! He is Knower of all things.
13. He hath ordained for you that religion which He commended unto Noah, and that which We inspire in thee
(Muhammad), and that which We commended unto Abraham and Moses and Jesus, saying: Establish the religion, and
be not divided therein. Dreadful for the idolaters is that unto which thou callest them. Allah chooseth for Himself
whom He will, and guideth unto Himself him who turneth (toward Him).
14. And they were not divided until after the knowledge came unto them, through rivalry among themselves; and had
it not been for a Word that had already gone forth from thy Lord for an appointed term, it surely had been judged
between them. And those who were made to inherit the Scripture after them are verily in hopeless doubt concerning
15. Unto this, then, summon (O Muhammad). And be thou upright as thou art commanded, and follow not their lusts,
but say: I believe in whatever Scripture Allah hath sent down, and I am commanded to be just among you. Allah is our
Lord and your Lord. Unto us our works and unto you your works; no argument between us and you. Allah will bring us
together, and unto Him is the journeying.
16. And those who argue concerning Allah after He hath been acknowledged, their argument hath no weight with their
Lord, and wrath is upon them and theirs will be an awful doom.
17. Allah it is who hath revealed the Scripture with truth, and the Balance. How canst thou know? It may be that the
Hour is nigh.
18. Those who believe not therein seek to hasten it, while those who believe are fearful of it and know that it is the
Truth. Are not they who dispute, in doubt concerning the Hour, far astray?
19. Allah is gracious unto His slaves. He provideth for whom He will. And He is the Strong, the Mighty.
20. Whoso desireth the harvest of the Hereafter, We give him increase in its harvest. And Whoso desireth the harvest
of the world, We give him thereof, and he hath no portion in the Hereafter.
21. Or have they partners (of Allah) who have made lawful for them in religion that which Allah allowed not? And but
for a decisive word (gone forth already), it would have been judged between them. Lo! for wrong doers is a painful
22. Thou seest the wrong doers fearful of that which they have earned, and it will surely befall them; while those who
believe and do good works (will be) in flowering meadows of the Gardens, having what they wish from their Lord. This
is the great preferment.
23. This it is which Allah announceth unto His bondmen who believe and do good works. Say (O Muhammad, unto
mankind): I ask of you no fee therefor, save loving kindness among kinsfolk. And whoso scoreth a good deed we add
unto its good for him. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Responsive.
24. Or say they: He hath invented a lie concerning Allah? If Allah willed, He could have sealed thy heart (against them).
And Allah will wipe out the lie and will vindicate the truth by His words. Lo! He is aware of what is hidden in the breasts
(of men).
25. And He it is Who accepteth repentance from his bondmen, and pardoneth the evil deeds, and knoweth what ye do.
26. And accepteth those who do good works, and giveth increase unto them of His bounty. And as for disbelievers,
theirs will be an awful doom.
27. And if Allah were to enlarge the provision for His slaves they would surely rebel in the earth, but He sendeth down
by measure as He willeth. Lo! He is Informed, a Seer of His bondmen.
28. And He it is Who sendeth down the saving rain after they have despaired, and spreadeth out His mercy. He is the
Protecting Friend, the Praiseworthy.
29. And of His portents is the creation of the heaven and the earth, and of whatever beasts He hath dispersed therein.
And He is Able to gather them when He will.
30. Whatever of misfortune striketh you, it is what your right hands have earned. And He forgiveth much
31. Ye cannot escape in the earth, for beside Allah ye have no protecting friend nor any helper.
32. And of His portents are the ships, like banners on the sea;
33. If He will He calmeth the wind so that they keep still upon its surface Lo! herein verily are signs for every steadfast
grateful (heart).
34. Or he causeth them to perish on account of that which they have earned And He forgiveth much
35. And that those who argue concerning Our revelations may know they have no refuge.
36. Now whatever ye have been given is but a passing comfort for the life of the world, and that which Allah hath is
better and more lasting for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord.
37. And those who shun the worst of sins and indecencies and, when they are wroth, forgive,
38. And those who answer the call of their Lord and establish worship, and whose affairs are a matter of counsel, and
who spend of what We have bestowed on them,
39. And those who, when great wrong is done to them, defend themselves,
40. The guerdon of an ill deed is an ill the like thereof. But whosoever pardoneth and amendeth, his wage is the affair
of Allah. Lo! He loveth not wrong doers.
41. And whoso defendeth himself after he hath suffered wrong for such, there is no way (of blame) against them.
42. The way (of blame) is only against those who oppress mankind, and wrongfully rebel in the earth. For such there
is a painful doom.
43. And verily whoso is patient and forgiveth, lo! that, verily, is (of) the steadfast heart of things.
44. He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there is no protecting friend after Him. And thou (Muhammad) wilt see the
evil doers when they see the doom, (how) they say: Is there any way of return?
45. And thou wilt see them exposed to (the Fire), made humble by disgrace, and looking with veiled eyes. And those
who believe will say: Lo! the (eternal) losers are they who lose themselves and their housefolk on the Day of
Resurrection. Lo! are not the wrong doers in perpetual torment?

47. Answer the call of your Lord before there cometh unto you from Allah a Day which there is no averting. Ye have
no refuge on that Day, nor have ye any (power of) refusal.
48. But if they are averse, We have not sent thee as a warder over them. Thine is only to convey (the message). And
lo! when We cause man to taste of mercy from Us he exulteth therefor. And if some evil striketh them because of that
which their own hands have sent before, then lo! man is an ingrate.
49. Unto Allah belongeth the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. He createth what He will. He bestoweth female
(offspring) upon whom He will, and bestoweth male (offspring) upon whom He will;
50. Or He mingleth them, males and females, and He maketh barren whom He will. Lo! He is Knower, Powerful.
51. And it was not (vouchsafed) to any mortal that Allah should speak to him unless (it be) by revelation or from behind
a veil, or (that) He sendeth a messenger to reveal what He will by His leave. Lo! He is Exalted, Wise.
52. And thus have We inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our command. Thou knewest not what the Scripture
was, nor what the Faith. But We have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our bondmen. And lo! thou
verily dost guide unto a right path.

things reach Allah at last?
Surah 43. Az-Zukhruf

3. Lo! We have appointed it a Lecture in Arabic that haply ye may understand.
4. And lo! in the Source of Decrees, which We possess, it is indeed sublime, decisive,
5. Shall We utterly ignore you because ye are a wanton folk?
6. How many a Prophet did We send among the men of old!
7. And never came there unto them a Prophet but they used to mock him.
8. Then we destroyed men mightier than these in prowess; and the example of the men of old hath gone (before them).
9. And if thou (Muhammad) ask them: Who created the heavens and the earth, they will surely answer: The Mighty, the
Knower created them;
10. Who made the earth a resting place for you, and placed roads for you therein, that haply ye may find your way;
11. And who sendeth down water from the sky in (due) measure, and We revive a dead land therewith. Even so will ye
be brought forth;
12. He who created all the pairs, and appointed for you ships and cattle whereupon ye ride.
13. That ye may mount upon their backs, and may remember your Lord's favour when ye mount thereon, and may say:
Glorified be He Who hath subdued these unto us, and we were not capable (of subduing them);
14. And lo! unto our Lord we are returning.
15. And they allot to Him a portion of His bondmen! Lo! man is verily a mere ingrate.
16. Or chooseth He daughters of all that He hath created, and honoureth He you with sons?
17. And if one of them hath tidings of that which he likeneth to the Beneficent One, his countenance becometh black
and he is full of inward rage.
18. (Liken they then to Allah) that which is bred up in outward show, and in dispute cannot make itself plain?
19. And they make the angels, who are the slaves of the Beneficent, females. Did they witness their creation? Their
testimony will be recorded and they will be questioned.
20. And they say: If the Beneficent One had (so) willed, we should not have worshipped them. They have no knowledge
whatsoever of that. They do but guess.
21. Or have We given them any Scripture before (this Qur'an) so that they are holding fast thereto?
22. Nay, for they say only: Lo! we found our fathers following a religion, and we are guided by their footprints.
23. And even so We sent not a warner before thee (Muhammad) into any township but its luxurious ones said: Lo! we
found our fathers following a religion, and we are following their footprints.
24. (And the warner) said: What! Even though I bring you better guidance than that ye found your fathers following?
They answered: Lo! in what ye bring we are disbelievers.
25. So We requited them. Then see the nature of the consequence for the rejecters!
26. And when Abraham said unto his father and his folk: Lo! I am innocent of what ye worship
27. Save Him Who did create me, for He will surely guide me.
28. And he made It a word enduring among his seed, that haply they might return.
29. Nay, but I let these and their fathers enjoy life (only) till there should come unto them the Truth and a messenger

30. And now that the Truth hath come unto them they say: This is mere magic, and lo! we are disbelievers therein.
31. And they say: If only thin Qur'an had been revealed to some great man of the two towns?
32. Is it they who apportion their Lord's mercy? We have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of the
world, and raised some of them above others in rank that some of them may take labour from others; and the mercy
of thy Lord is better than (the wealth) that they amass.
33. And were it not that mankind would have become one community, We might well have appointed, for those who
disbelieve in the Beneficent, roofs of silver for their houses and stairs (of silver) whereby to mount,
34. And for their houses doors (of silver) and couches of silver whereon to recline,
35. And ornaments of gold. Yet all that would have been but a provision of the life of the world. And the Hereafter with
your Lord would have been for those who keep from evil.
36. And he whose sight is dim to the remembrance of the Beneficent, We assign unto him a devil who becometh his
37. And lo! they surely turn them from the way of Allah, and yet they deem that they are rightly guided;
38. Till, when he cometh unto Us, he saith (unto his comrade): Ah, would that between me and thee there were the
distance of the two horizons, an evil comrade!
39. And it profiteth you not this day, because ye did wrong, that ye will be sharers in the doom.
40. Canst thou (Muhammad) make the deaf to hear, or canst thou guide the blind or him who is in error manifest?
41. And if We take thee away, We surely shall take vengeance on them,
42. Or (if) We show thee that wherewith We threaten them; for lo! We have complete command of them.
43. So hold thou fast to that which is inspired in thee. Lo! thou art on a right path.

44. And lo! it is in truth a Reminder for thee and for thy folk; and ye will be questioned.
45. And ask those of Our messengers whom We sent before thee: Did We ever appoint gods to be worshipped beside
the Beneficent?
46. And verily We sent Moses with Our revelations unto Pharaoh and his chiefs, and he said: I am a messenger of the
Lord of the Worlds.
47. But when he brought them Our tokens, behold! they laughed at them.
48. And every token that We showed them was greater than its sister (token), and we grasped them with the torment,
that haply they might turn again.
49. And they said: O wizard; Entreat thy Lord for us by the pact that He hath made with thee. Lo! we verily will walk
50. But when We eased them of the torment, behold! they broke their word.
51. And Pharaoh caused a proclamation to be made among his people saying: O my people! Is not mine the sovereignty
of Egypt and these rivers flowing under me? Can ye not then discern?
52. I am surely better than this fellow, who is despicable, and can hardly make (his meaning) plain!
53. Why, then, have armlets of gold not been set upon him, or angels sent along with him?
54. Thus he persuaded his people to make light (of Moses), and they obeyed him. Lo! they were a wanton folk.
55. So, when they angered Us, We punished them and drowned them every one.
56. And We made them a thing past, and an example for those after (them).
57. And when the son of Mary is quoted as an example, behold! the folk laugh out,
58. And say: Are our gods better, or is he? They raise not the objection save for argument. Nay! but they are a
contentious folk.
59. He is nothing but a slave on whom We bestowed favour, and We made him a pattern for the Children of Israel.
60. And had We willed We could have set among you angels to be viceroys in the earth.
61. And lo! verily there is knowledge of the Hour. So doubt ye not concerning it, but follow Me. This is the right path.
62. And let not Satan turn you aside. Lo! he is an open enemy for you.
63. When Jesus came with clear proofs (of Allah's sovereignty), he said: I have come unto you with wisdom, and to
make plain some of that concerning which ye differ. So keep your duty to Allah, and obey me.
64. Lo! Allah, He is my Lord and your Lord. So worship Him. This is a right path.
65. But the factions among them differed. Then woe unto those who do wrong from the doom of a painful day.
66. Await they aught save the Hour, that it shall come upon them suddenly, when they know not?
67. Friends on that day will be foes one to another, save those who kept their duty (to Allah).
68. O My slaves! For you there is no fear this day, nor is it ye who grieve;
69. (Ye) who believed Our revelations and were self surrendered,
70. Enter the Garden, ye and your wives, to be made glad.
71. Therein are brought round for them trays of gold and goblets, and therein is all that souls desire and eyes find
sweet. And ye are immortal therein.
72. This is the Garden which ye are made to inherit because of what ye used to do.
73. Therein for you is fruit in plenty whence to eat.
74. Lo! the guilty are immortal in hell's torment.
75. It is not relaxed for them, and they despair therein.
76. We wronged them not, but they it was who did the wrong.
77. And they cry: O master! Let thy Lord make an end of us. He saith: Lo! here ye must remain.
78. We verily brought the Truth unto you, but ye were, most of you, averse to the Truth.
79. Or do they determine any thing (against the Prophet)? Lo! We (also) are determining.
80. Or deem they that We cannot hear their secret thoughts and private confidences? Nay, but Our envoys, present with
them, do record.
81. Say (O Muhammad): The Beneficent One hath no son. I am first among the worshippers.
82. Glorified be the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the Lord of the Throne, from that which they ascribe (unto
83. So let them flounder (in their talk) and play until they meet the Day which they are promised.
84. And He it is Who in the heaven is God, and in the earth God. He is the Wise, the knower.
85. And blessed be He unto Whom belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them,
and with Whom is knowledge of the Hour, and unto Whom ye will be returned.
86. And those unto whom they cry instead of Him possess no power of intercession, saving him who beareth witness
unto the Truth knowingly.
87. And if thou ask them who created them, they will surely say: Allah. How then are they turned away?
88. And he saith: O my Lord! Lo! those are a folk who believe not.
89. Then bear with them (O Muhammad) and say: Peace. But they will come to know.
Surah 44. Ad-Dukhan
1. Ha. Mim.
2. By the Scripture that maketh plain
3. Lo! We revealed it on a blessed night. Lo! We are ever warning.
4. Whereupon every wise command is made clear
5. As a command from Our presence. Lo! We are ever sending
6. A mercy from thy Lord. Lo! He is the Hereafter, the Knower,
7. Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, if ye would be sure.
8. There is no God save Him. He quickeneth and giveth death; your Lord and Lord of your forefathers.
9. Nay, but they play in doubt.
10. But watch thou (O Muhammad) for the day when the sky will produce visible smoke
11. That will envelop the people. This will be a painful torment.
12. (Then they will say): Our Lord relieve of the torment. Lo! we are believers:
13. How can there be remembrance for them, when a messenger making plain (the truth) had already come unto them,
14. And they had turned away from him and said: One taught (by others), a madman?
15. Lo! We withdraw the torment a little. Lo! ye return (to disbelief).
16. On the day when We shall seize them with the greater seizure (then), in truth We shall punish.

17. And verily We tried before them Pharaoh's folk, when there came unto them a noble messenger,
18. Saying: Give up to me the slaves of Allah. Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you.
19. And saying: Be not proud against Allah. Lo! I bring you a clear warrant.
20. And lo! I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord lest ye stone me to death.
21. And if ye put no faith in me, then let me go
22. And he cried unto his Lord (saying): These area guilty folk.
23. Then (his Lord commanded) Take away my slaves by night. Lo! ye will be followed,
24. And leave the sea behind at rest, for lo! they are a drowned host.
25. How many were the gardens and the water springs that they left behind,
26. And the cornlands and the goodly sites
27. And pleasant things wherein they took delight!
28. Even so (it was), and We made it an inheritance for other folk;
29. And the heaven and the earth wept not for them, nor were they reprieved.
30. And We delivered the Children of Israel from the shameful doom
31. (We delivered them) from Pharaoh. Lo! he was a tyrant of the wanton ones.
32. And We chose them, purposely, above (all) creatures.
33. And We gave them portents wherein was a clear trial.
34. Lo! these, forsooth, are saying:
35. There is naught but our first death, and we shall not be raised again.
36. Bring back our fathers, if ye speak the truth!
37. Are they better, or the folk of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty.
38. And We created not the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, in play.
39. We created them not save with truth; but most of them know not.
40. Assuredly the Day of Decision is the term of all of them,
41. A day when friend can in naught avail friend, nor can they be helped,
42. Save him on whom Allah hath mercy. Lo! He is the Mighty, the Merciful.
43. Lo! the tree of Zaqqum,
44. The food of the sinner!
45. Like molten brass, it seetheth in their bellies
46. As the seething of boiling water.
47. (And it will be said): Take him and drag him to the midst of hell,
48. Then pour upon his head the torment of boiling water.
49. (Saying): Taste! Lo! thou wast forsooth the mighty, the noble!
50. Lo! this is that whereof ye used to doubt.
51. Lo! those who kept their duty will be in a place secure
52. Amid gardens and water springs,
53. Attired in sin and silk embroidery, facing one another.
54. Even so (it will be). And We shall wed them unto fair ones with wide, lovely eyes.
55. They call therein for every fruit in safety.
56. They taste not death therein, save the first death. And He hath saved them from the doom of hell,
57. A bounty from thy Lord. That is the supreme triumph.
58. And We have made (this Scripture) easy in thy language only that they may heed.
59. Wait then (O Muhammad). Lo! they (too) are waiting.
Surah 45. Al-Jathiya
1. Ha. Mim.
2. The revelation of the Scripture is from Allah, the Mighty, the Wise.
3. Lo! in the heavens and the earth are portents for believers.
4. And in your creation, and all the beasts that He scattered in the earth, are portents for a folk whose faith is sure.
5. And the difference of night and day and the provision that Allah sendeth down from the sky and thereby quickeneth
the earth after her death, and the ordering of the winds, are portents for a people who have sense.
6. These are the portents of Allah which We recite unto thee (Muhammad) with truth. Then in what fact, after Allah and
His portents, will they believe?
7. Woe unto each sinful liar,
8. Who heareth the revelations of Allah receive unto him, and then continueth in pride as though he heard them not.
Give him tidings of a painful doom.
9. And when he knoweth aught of Our revelations he maketh it a jest. For such there is a shameful doom.
10. Beyond them there is hell, and that which they have earned will naught avail them, nor those whom they have chosen
for protecting friends beside Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.
11. This is guidance. And those who disbelieve the revelations of their Lord, for them there is a painful doom of wrath.
12. Allah it is Who hath made the sea of service unto you that the ships may run thereon by His command, and that ye
may seek of His bounty, and that haply ye may be thankful;
13. And hath made of service unto you whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth; it is all from Him.
Lo! herein verily are portents for people who reflect.
14. Tell those who believe to forgive those who hope not for the days of Allah; in order that He may requite folk what
they used to earn.
15. Whoso doeth right, it is for his soul, and whoso doeth wrong, it is against it. And afterward unto your Lord ye will
be brought back.
16. And verily We gave the Children of Israel the Scripture and the Command and the Prophethood, and provided them
with good things and favoured them above (all) peoples;
17. And gave them plain commandments. And they differed not until after the knowledge came unto them, through
rivalry among themselves. Lo! thy Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that wherein
they used to differ.
18. And now have We set thee (O Muhammad) on a clear road of (Our) commandment; so follow it, and follow not
the whims of those who know not.

19. Lo! they can avail thee naught against Allah. And lo! as for the wrong doers, some of them are friends of others;
and Allah is the Friend of those who ward off (evil).
20. This is clear indication for mankind, and a guidance and a mercy for a folk whose faith is sure.
21. Or do those who commit ill deeds suppose that We shall make them as those who believe and do good works, the
same life and death? Bad is their judgment!
22. And Allah hath created the heavens and the earth with truth, and that every soul may be repaid what it hath earned.
And they will not be wronged.
23. Hast thou seen him who maketh his desire his god, and Allah sendeth him astray purposely, and sealeth up his
hearing and his heart, and setteth on his sight a covering? Then who will lead him after Allah (hath condemned him)?
Will ye not then heed?
24. And they say: There is naught but our life of the world; we die and we live, and naught destroyeth us save time; when
they have no knowledge whatsoever of (all) that; they do but guess.
25. And when Our clear revelations are recited unto them their only argument is that they say: Bring (back) our fathers
then, if ye are truthful.
26. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Allah giveth life to you, then causeth you to die, then gathereth you unto the Day
of Resurrection whereof there is no doubt. But most of mankind know not.
27. And unto Allah belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; and on the day when the Hour riseth, on that
day those who follow falsehood will be lost.
28. And thou wilt see each nation crouching, each nation summoned to its record. (And it will be said unto them): This
day ye are requited what ye used to do.
29. This Our Book pronounceth against you with truth. Lo! We have caused (all) that ye did to be recorded.
30. Then, as for those who believed and did good works, their Lord will bring them in unto His mercy. That is the
evident triumph.
31. And as for those who disbelieved (it will be said unto them): Were not Our revelations recited unto you? But ye
were scornful and became a guilty folk.
32. And when it was said: Lo! Allah's promise is the truth, and there is no doubt of the Hour's coming, ye said: We
know not what the Hour is. We deem it naught but a conjecture, and we are by no means convinced.
33. And the evils of what they did will appear unto them, and that which they used to deride will befall them:
34. And it will be said: This day We forget you, even as ye forgot the meeting of this your day; and your habitation is
the Fire, and there is none to help you.
35. This, forasmuch as ye made the revelations of Allah a jest, and the life of the world beguiled you. Therefor this day
they come not forth from thence, nor can they make amends
36. Then praise be to Allah, Lord of the heavens and Lords of the earth, the Lord of the Worlds.

2. The revelation of the Scripture from Allah the Mighty, the Wise.
3. We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them save with truth, and for a term appointed. But
those who disbelieve turn away from that whereof they are warned.
4. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Have ye thought on all that ye invoke beside Allah? Show me what they have created
of the earth. Or have they any Portion the heavens? Bring me a Scripture before this (Scripture), or some vestige of
knowledge (in support of what ye say), if ye are truthful.
5. And who is further astray than those who, instead of Allah, pray unto such as hear not their prayer until the Day of
Resurrection, and are unconscious of their prayer,
6. And when mankind are gathered (to the Judgment) will become enemies for them, and will become deniers of having
been worshipped.
7. And when Our clear revelations are recited unto them, who disbelieve say of the Truth when it reacheth them: This
is mere magic.
8. Or say they: He hath invented it? Say (O Muhammad): If I have invented it, still ye have no power to support me
against Allah. He is best aware of what ye say among yourselves concerning it. He sufficeth for a witness between me
and you And He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.
9. Say: I am no new thing among the messengers (of Allah), nor know I what will be done with me or with you. I do but
follow that which is inspired in me, and I am but a plain warner.
10. Bethink you: If it is from Allah and ye disbelieve therein, and a witness of the Children of Israel hath already
testified to the like thereof and hath believed, and ye are too proud (what plight is yours)? Lo! Allah, guideth not wrong
doing folk.
11. And those who disbelieve say of those who believe: If it had been (any) good, they would not have been before us
in attaining it. And since they will not be guided by it, they say: This is an ancient lie;
12. When before it there was the Scripture of Moses, an example and a mercy; and this is a confirming Scripture in
the Arabic language, that it may warn those who do wrong and bring good tidings for the righteous.
13. Lo! those who say: our Lord is Allah, and thereafter walk aright, there shall no fear come upon them neither shall
they grieve.
14. Such are rightful owners of the Garden, immortal thereafter as a reward for what they used to do.
15. And We have commended unto man kindness toward parents. His mother beareth him with reluctance, and bringeth
him forth with reluctance, and the bearing of him and the weaning of him is thirty months, till, when he attaineth full
strength and reacheth forty years, he saith: My Lord! Arouse me that I may give thanks for the favour wherewith Thou
hast favoured me and my parents, and that I may do right acceptable unto Thee. And be gracious unto me In the matter
of my seed. Lo! I have turned unto Thee repentant, and lo! I am of those who surrender (unto Thee).
16. Those are they from whom We accept the best of what they do, and overlook their evil deeds. (They are) among
the owners of the Garden. This is the true promise which they were promised (in the world).
17. And whoso saith unto his parents: Fie upon you both! Do ye threaten me that I shall be brought forth (again) when
generations before me have passed away? And they twain cry unto Allah for help (and say): Woe unto thee! Believe!
Lo! the promise of Allah is true. But he saith: This is naught save fables of the men of old:

in the life of the world and sought comfort therein. Now this day ye are rewarded with the doom of ignominy because
ye were disdainful in the land without a right and because ye used to transgress.
21. And make mention (O Muhammad) of the brother of Aad when he warned his folk among the wind curved sand hills
and verily warners came and went before and after him saying: Serve none but Allah. Lo! I fear for you the doom of
a tremendous Day.
22. They said; Hast come to turn us away from our gods? Then bring upon us that wherewith thou threatenest us, if thou
art of the truthful.
23. He said: The knowledge is with Allah only. I convey unto you that wherewith I have been sent, but I see you are a
folk that know not.
24. Then when they beheld it a dense cloud coming toward their valleys, they said; Here is a cloud bringing us rain. Nay,
but it is that which ye did seek to hasten, a wind wherein is painful torment,
25. Destroying all things by commandment of its Lord. And morning found them so that naught could be seen save their
dwellings. Thus do We reward the guilty folk.
26. And verily We bad empowered them with that where with We have not empowered you, and had assigned them ears
and eyes and hearts; but their ears and eyes and hearts availed them naught since they denied the revelations of Allah;
and what they used to mock befell them.
27. And verily We have destroyed townships round about you, and displayed (for them) Our revelation, that haply they
might return.
28. Then why did those whom they had chosen for gods as a way of approach (unto Allah) not help them? Nay, but they
did fail them utterly. And (all) that was their lie, and what they used to invent
29. And when We inclined toward thee (Muhammad) certain of the Jinn, who wished to hear the Qur'an and, when they
were in its presence, said: Give ear! and, when it was finished, turned back to their people, warning.
30. They said: O our people! Lo! we have heard a Scripture which hath been revealed after Moses, confirming that
which was before it, guiding unto the truth and a right road.
31. O our people! respond to Allah's summoner and believe in Him. He will forgive you some of your sins and guard
you from a painful doom.

to give life to the dead? Aye, He verily is Able to do all things.
34. And on the day when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (they will be asked): Is not this real? They will
say: Yea, by our Lord. He will say: Then taste the doom for that ye disbelieved. .
35. Then have patience (O Muhammad) even as the stout of heart among the messengers (of old) had patience, and seek
not to hasten on the doom for them. On the day when they see that which they are promised (it will seem to them) as
though they had tarried but an hour of daylight. A clear message. Shall any be destroyed save evil living folk?
Surah 47. Muhammad
1. Those who disbelieve and turn (men) from the way of Allah, He rendereth their actions vain.
2. And those who believe and do good works and believe in that which is revealed unto Muhammad and it is the truth
from their Lord. He riddeth them of their ill deeds and improveth their state.
3. That is because those who disbelieve follow falsehood and because those who believe follow the truth from their
Lord. Thus Allah coineth their similitudes for mankind.
4. Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks until, when ye have routed them,
then making fast of bonds; and afterward either grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens. That (is the
ordinance). And if Allah willed He could have punished them (without you) but (thus it is ordained) that He may try
some of you by means of others. And those who are slain in the way of Allah, He rendereth not their actions vain.
5. He will guide them and improve their state,
6. And bring them in unto the Garden which He hath made known to them.
7. O ye who believe! If ye help Allah, He will help you and will make your foothold firm.
8. And those who disbelieve, perdition is for them, and He will make their actions vain.
9. That is because they are averse to that which Allah hath revealed, therefor maketh He their action fruitless.
10. Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for those who were before them? Allah
wiped them out. And for the disbelievers there will be the like thereof.
11. That is because Allah is patron of those who believe, and because the disbelievers have no patron.
12. Lo! Allah will cause those who believe and do good works to enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow; while
those who disbelieve take their comfort in this life and eat even as the cattle eat, and the Fire is their habitation.
13. And how many a township stronger than thy township (O Muhammad) which hath cast thee out, have We destroyed,
and they had no helper!
14. Is he who relieth on a clear proof from his Lord like those for whom the evil that they do is beautified while they
follow their own lusts?
15. A similitude of the Garden which those who keep their duty (to Allah) are promised: Therein are rivers of water
unpolluted, and rivers of milk whereof the flavour changeth not, and rivers of wine delicious to the drinkers, and rivers
of clear run honey; therein for them is every kind of fruit, with pardon from their Lord. (Are those who enjoy all this)
like those who are immortal in the Fire and are given boiling water to drink so that it teareth their bowels?
16. Among them are some who give ear unto thee (Muhammad) till, when they go forth from thy presence, they say
unto those who have been given knowledge: What was that he said just now? Those are they whose hearts Allah hath
sealed, and they follow their own lusts.
17. While as for those who walk aright, He addeth to their guidance, and giveth them their protection (against evil).
18. Await they aught save the Hour, that it should come upon them unawares? And the beginnings thereof have already
come. But how, when it hath come upon them, can they take their warning?
19. So know (O Muhammad) that there is no God save Allah, and ask forgiveness for thy sin and for believing men and
believing women. Allah knoweth (both) your place of turmoil and your place of rest.

mentioned therein, thou seest those in whose hearts is a disease looking at thee with the look of men fainting unto
death. Therefor woe unto them!
21. Obedience and a civil word. Then, when the matter is determined, if they are loyal to Allah it will be well for them.
22. Would ye then, if ye were given the command, work corruption in the land and sever your ties of kinship?
23. Such are they whom Allah curseth so that he deafeneth them and maketh blind their eyes.
24. Will they then not meditate on the Qur'an, or are there locks on the hearts?
25. Lo! those who turn back after the guidance hath been manifested unto them, Satan hath seduced them, and He giveth

26. That is because they say unto those who hate what Allah hath revealed: We will obey you in some matters; and Allah

28. That will be because they followed that which angereth Allah, and hated that which pleaseth Him. Therefor He hath

29. Or do those in whose hearts is a disease deem that Allah will not bring to light their (secret) hates?
30. And if We would, We could show them unto thee (Muhammad) so that thou shouldst know them surely by their

and will not ask of you your worldly wealth.

him who hoardeth, he hoardeth only from his soul. And Allah is the Rich, and ye are the poor. And if ye turn away He
will exchange you for some other folk, and they will not be the likes of you.
Surah 48. Al-Fat-h
1. Lo! We have given thee (O Muhammad) a signal victory,
2. That Allah may forgive thee of thy sin that which is past and that which is to come, and may perfect His favour unto
thee, and may guide thee on a right path,
3. And that Allah may help thee with strong help
4. He it is Who sent down peace of reassurance into the hearts of the believers that they might add faith unto their faith.
Allah's are the hosts of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is ever Knower, Wise
5. That He may bring the believing men and the believing women into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, wherein
they will abide, and may remit from them their evil deeds. That, in the sight of Allah, is the supreme triumph
6. And may punish the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women, and the idolatrous men and the idolatrous women,
who think an evil thought concerning Allah. For them is the evil turn of fortune, and Allah is wroth against them and
hath cursed them, and hath made ready for them hell, a hapless journey's end.
7. Allah's are the hosts of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is ever Mighty, Wise.
8. Lo! We have sent thee (O Muhammad) as a witness and a bearer of good tidings and a warner,
9. That ye (mankind) may believe in Allah and His messenger, and may honour Him, and may revere Him, and may
glorify Him at early dawn and at the close of day.
10. Lo! those who swear allegiance unto thee (Muhammad), swear allegiance only unto Allah. The Hand of Allah is
above their hands. So whosoever breaketh his oath, breaketh it only to his soul's hurt; while whosoever keepeth his
covenant with Allah, on him will He bestow immense reward.
11. Those of the wandering Arabs who were left behind will tell thee: Our possessions and our households occupied
us, so ask forgiveness for us! They speak with their tongues that which is not in their hearts. Say: Who can avail you
aught against Allah, if he intend you hurt or intend you profit? Nay, but Allah is ever Aware of what ye do.
12. Nay, but ye deemed that the messenger and the believers would never return to their own folk, and that was made
fair seeming in your hearts, and ye did think an evil thought, and ye were worthless folk.
13. And as for him who believeth not in Allah and His messenger Lo! We have prepared a flame for disbelievers.
14. And Allah's is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. He forgiveth whom He will, and punisheth whom He
will. And Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.
15. Those who were left behind will say, when ye set forth to capture booty: Let us go with you. They fain would change
the verdict of Allah. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Ye shall not go with us. Thus hath Allah said beforehand. Then
they will say: Ye are envious of us. Nay, but they understand not, save a little.
16. Say unto those of the wandering Arabs who were left behind: Ye will be called against a folk of mighty prowess,
to fight them until they surrender; and if ye obey, Allah will give you a fair reward; but if ye turn away as ye did turn
away before, He will punish you with a painful doom.
17. There is no blame for the blind, nor is there blame for the lame, nor is there blame for the sick (that they go not
forth to war). And whoso obeyeth Allah and His messenger, He will make him enter Gardens underneath which rivers
flow; and whoso turneth back, him will He punish with a painful doom.
18. Allah was well pleased with the believers when they swore allegiance unto thee beneath the tree, and He knew what
was in their hearts, and He sent down peace of reassurance on them, and hath rewarded them with a near victory;
19. And much booty that they will capture. Allah is ever Mighty, Wise.

20. Allah promiseth you much booty that ye will capture, and hath given you this in advance, and hath withheld men's
hands from you, that it may be a token for the believers, and that He may guide you on a right path.
21. And other (gain), which ye have not been able to achieve, Allah will compass it. Allah is Able to do all things.
22. And if those who disbelieve join battle with you they will take to flight, and afterward they will find no protecting
friend nor helper.
23. It is the law of Allah which hath taken course aforetime. Thou wilt not find for the law of Allah aught of power to
24. And He it is Who hat withheld men's hands from you, and hath withheld your hands from them, in the valley of
Mecca, after He had made you victors over them. Allah is Seer of what ye do.
25. These it was who disbelieved and debarred you from the Inviolable Place of Worship, and debarred the offering
from reaching its goal. And if it had not been for believing men and believing women, whom ye know not lest ye should
tread them under foot and thus incur guilt for them unknowingly; that Allah might bring into His mercy whom He will.
If (the believers and the disbelievers) had been clearly separated We verily had punished those of them who disbelieved
with painful punishment.
26. When those who disbelieve had set up in their hearts zealotry, the zealotry of the Age of Ignorance, then Allah sent
down His peace of reassurance upon His messenger and upon the believers and imposed on them the word of self
restraint, for they were worthy of it and meet for it. And Allah is Aware of all things.
27. Allah hath fulfilled the vision for His messenger in very truth. Ye shall indeed enter the Inviolable Place of
Worship, if Allah will, secure, (having your hair) shaven and cut, not fearing. But He knoweth that which ye know not,
and hath given you a near victory beforehand.
28. He it is Who hath sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, that He may cause it to prevail
over all religion. And Allah sufficeth as a witness.
29. Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among
themselves. Thou (O Muhammad) seest them bowing and falling prostrate (in worship), seeking bounty from Allah and
(His) acceptance. The mark of them is on their foreheads from the traces of prostration. Such is their likeness in the
Torah and their likeness in the Gospel like as sown corn that sendeth forth its shoot and strengtheneth it and riseth firm
upon its stalk, delighting the sowers that He may enrage the disbelievers with (the sight of) them. Allah hath promised,
unto such of them as believe and do good works, forgiveness and immense reward.
Surah 49. Al-Hujurat
1. O ye who believe! Be not forward in the presence of Allah and His messenger, and keep your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah
is Hearer, Knower.
2. O ye who believe! Lift not up your voices above the voice of the Prophet, nor shout when speaking to him as ye shout
one to another, lest your works be rendered vain while ye perceive not.
3. Lo! they who subdue their voices in the presence of the messenger of Allah, those are they whose hearts Allah hath
proven unto righteousness. Theirs will be forgiveness and immense reward.
4. Lo! those who call thee from behind the private apartment, most of them have no sense.
5. And if they had patience till thou camest forth unto them, it had been better for them. And Allah is Forgiving,
6. O ye who believe! If an evil liver bring you tidings, verify it, lest ye smite some folk in ignorance and afterward
repent of what ye did.
7. And know that the messenger of Allah is among you. If he were to obey you in much of the government, ye would
surely be in trouble; but Allah hath endeared the faith to you and hath beautified it in your hearts, and hath made
disbelief and lewdness and rebellion hateful unto you. Such are they who are rightly guided.
8. (It is) a bounty and a grace from Allah; and Allah is Knower, Wise.
9. And if two parties of believers fall to fighting, then make peace between them. And if one party of them doeth wrong
to the other, fight ye that which doeth wrong till it return unto the ordinance of Allah; then, if it return, make peace
between them justly, and act equitably. Lo! Allah loveth the equitable.
10. The believers are naught else than brothers. Therefore make peace between your brethren and observe your duty
to Allah that haply ye may obtain mercy.
11. O ye who believe! Let not a folk deride a folk who may be better than they (are), nor let women (deride) women
who may be better than they are; neither defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames. Bad is the name of
lewdness after faith. And whoso turneth not in repentance, such are evil doers.
12. O ye who believe! Shun much suspicion; for lo! some suspicion is a crime. And spy not, neither backbite one
another. Would one of you love to eat the flesh of his dead brother? Ye abhor that (so abhor the other)! And keep your
duty (to Allah). Lo! Allah is Relenting, Merciful.
13. O mankind! Lo! We have created you male and female, and have made `you nations and tribes that ye may know one
another. Lo! the noblest of you, in the sight of Allah, is the best in conduct. Lo! Allah is Knower, Aware.
14. The wandering Arabs say: We believe. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Ye believe not, but rather say `We submit,'
for the faith hath not yet entered into your hearts. Yet, if ye obey Allah and His messenger, He will not withhold from
you aught of (the reward of) your deeds. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
15. The (true) believers are those only who believe in Allah and His messenger and afterward doubt not, but strive with
their wealth and their lives for the cause of Allah. Such are the sincere.
16. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Would ye teach Allah your religion, when Allah knoweth all that is in the heavens
and all that is in the earth, and Allah is Aware of all things?
17. They make it favour unto thee (Muhammad) that they have surrendered (unto Him). Say: Deem not your Surrender
a favour unto me; nay, but Allah doth confer a favour on you, inasmuch as He hath led you to the Faith, if ye are earnest.
18. Lo! Allah knoweth the Unseen of the heavens and the earth. And Allah is Seer of what ye do.
Surah 50. Qaf
1. Qaf. By the glorious Qur'an,
2. Nay, but they marvel that a warner of their own hath come unto them; and the disbelievers say: This is a strange thing:
3. When we are dead and have become dust (shall we be brought back again)? That would be a far return!
4. We know that which the earth taketh of them, and with Us is a recording Book.
5. Nay, but they have denied the truth when it came unto them, therefor they are now in troubled case.
6. Have they not then observed the sky above them, how We have constructed it and beautified it, and how there are
no rifts therein?
7. And the earth have We spread out, and have flung firm hills therein, and have caused of every lovely kind to grow

27. And he set it before them, saying: Will ye not eat?
28. Then he conceived a fear of them. They said: Fear not! and gave him tidings of (the birth of) a wise son.
29. Then his wife came forward, making moan, and smote her face, and cried: A barren old woman!

31. (Abraham) said: And (afterward) what is your errand, O ye sent (from Allah)?

He chooseth and accepteth!
27. Lo! it is those who disbelieve in the Hereafter who name the angels with the names of females.
28. And they have no knowledge thereof. They follow but a guess, and lo! a guess can never take the place of the truth.

mercy. He is best aware of you (from the time) when He created you from the earth, and when ye were hidden in the
bellies of your mothers. Therefor ascribe not purity unto yourselves. He is best aware of him who wardeth off (evil).
33. Didst thou (O Muhammad) observe him who turned away,
34. And gave a little, then was grudging?
35. Hath he knowledge of the Unseen so that he seeth?
