Say (O
Muhammad SAW ): "Who provides
for you from the sky and from the earth? Or who owns hearing and sight?
And who brings out the living from the dead and brings out the dead
from the living? And who disposes the affairs?" They will say:
"Allah." Say: "Will you not then be afraid of Allah's
Punishment (for setting up
rivals in worship with Allah)?" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
32. |
Such is Allah, your Lord in truth.
So after the truth, what else can there be, save error? How then are
you turned away? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
33. |
Thus is the Word of your Lord justified
against those who rebel (disobey
Allah) that they will not believe
(in the Oneness of Allah and
in Muhammad SAW as the Messenger of Allah). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
34. |
Say: "Is there of your
(Allah's so-called)
partners one that originates the creation and then repeats it?"
Say: "Allah originates the creation and then He repeats it. Then
how are you deluded away (from
the truth)?" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
35. |
Say: "Is there of your
(Allah's so-called)
partners one that guides to the truth?" Say: "It is Allah
Who guides to the truth. Is then He, Who gives guidance to the truth,
more worthy to be followed, or he who finds not guidance (himself)
unless he is guided? Then, what is the matter with you? How judge
you?" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 36. |
And most of them follow nothing but
conjecture. Certainly, conjecture can be of no avail against the truth.
Surely, Allah is All-Aware of what they do. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
37. |
And this Qur-an is not such as could
ever be produced by other than Allah (Lord
of the heavens and the earth),
but it is a confirmation of (the
revelation) which was before
it [i.e. the Taurat (Torah),
and the Injeel (Gospel), etc.],
and a full explanation of the Book (i.e.
laws and orders, etc, decreed for mankind)
- wherein there is no doubt from the the Lord of the 'Alamin
(mankind, jinns, and all that exists). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
38. |
Or do they say: "He (Muhammad
SAW) has forged it?" Say:
"Bring then a Surah (chapter)
like unto it, and call upon whomsoever you can, besides Allah, if
you are truthful!" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 39. |
Nay, they deny that; the knowledge
whereof they could not compass and whereof the interpretation has
not yet come unto them. Thus those before them did deny. Then see
what was the end of the Zalimun (polytheists
and wrong-doers, etc.)! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 40. |
And of them there are some who believe
therein, and of them there are some who believe not therein, and your
Lord is All-Aware of the Mufsidun (evil-doers,
liars, etc.). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
41. |
And if they belie you, say: "For
me are my deeds and for you are your deeds! You are innocent of what
I do, and I am innocent of what you do!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
42. |
And among them are some who listen
to you, but can you make the deaf to hear, even though they apprehend
not? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 43. |
And among them are some who look at
you, but can you guide the blind, even though they see not? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
44. |
Truly! Allah wrongs not mankind in
aught; but mankind wrong themselves. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
45. |
And on the Day when He shall gather
(resurrect)
them together, (it will be)
as if they had not stayed (in
the life of this world and graves, etc.)
but an hour of a day. They will recognise each other. Ruined indeed
will be those who denied the meeting with Allah, and were not guided. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
46. |
Whether We show you (in
your lifetime, O Muhammad SAW)
some of what We promise them (the
torment), - or We cause you
to die, - still unto Us is their return, and moreover Allah is Witness
over what they used to do. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 47. |
And for every Ummah (a
community or a nation), there
is a Messenger; when their Messenger comes, the matter will be judged
between them with justice, and they will not be wronged. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
48. |
And they say: "When will be this
promise (the torment or the
Day of Resurrection), - if you
speak the truth?" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 49. |
Say (O
Muhammad SAW): "I have
no power over any harm or profit to myself except what Allah may will.
For every Ummah (a community
or a nation), there is a term
appointed; when their term is reached, neither can they delay it nor
can they advance it an hour (or
a moment)." (Tafsir
Al-Qurtubi). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 50. |
Say: "Tell me, - if His torment
should come to you by night or by day, - which portion thereof would
the Mujrimun (disbelievers,
polytheists, sinners, criminals)
hasten on ?" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
51. |
Is it then, that when it has actually
befallen, that you will believe in it? What! Now (you
believe)? And you used
(aforetime)
to hasten it on!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
52. |
Then it will be said to them who wronged
themselves: "Taste you the everlasting torment! Are you recompensed
(aught)
save what you used to earn?" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 53. |
And they ask you (O
Muhammad SAW) to inform them
(saying):
"Is it true (i.e. the
torment and the establishment of the Hour; - the Day of Resurrection)?"
Say: "Yes! By my Lord! It is the very truth! and you cannot escape
from it!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
54. |
And if every person who had wronged
(by disbelieving in Allah and
by worshipping others besides Allah),
possessed all that is on earth, and sought to ransom himself therewith
(it will not be accepted),
and they would feel in their hearts regret when they see the torment,
and they will be judged with justice, and no wrong will be done unto
them. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
55. |
No doubt, surely, all that is in the
heavens and the earth belongs to Allah. No doubt, surely, Allah's
Promise is true. But most of them know not. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
56. |
It is He Who gives life, and causes
death, and to Him you (all)
shall return. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
57. |
O mankind! There has come to you a
good advice from your Lord (i.e.
the Qur-an, ordering all that is good and forbidding all that is evil),
and a healing for that (disease
of ignorance, doubt, hypocrisy and differences, etc.)
in your breasts, - a guidance and a mercy (explaining
lawful and unlawful things, etc.)
for the believers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
58. |
Say: "In the Bounty of Allah,
and in His Mercy (i.e. Islam
and the Qur-an); -therein let
them rejoice." That is better than what (the
wealth) they amass. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
59. |
Say (O
Muhammad SAW to these polytheists):
"Tell me, what provision Allah has sent down to you! And you
have made of it lawful and unlawful." Say (O
Muhammad SAW): "Has Allah
permitted you (to do so),
or do you invent a lie against Allah?" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 60. |
And what think those who invent lies
against Allah, on the Day of Resurrection? [i.e.
Do they think that they will be forgiven and excused! Nay, they will
have an eternal punishment in the Fire of Hell].
Truly, Allah is full of Bounty to mankind, but most of them are ungrateful. |
