AlifLamMim. [These letters are one of the
miracles of the Qur-an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows
their meanings.] |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 2. |
Do
people think that they will be left alone because they say: "We
believe," and will not be tested. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 3. |
And
We indeed tested those who were before them. And Allah will
certainly make (it) known (the truth of) those who are true, and will certainly make (it) known (the falsehood of) those who are liars, (although
Allah knows all that before putting them to test). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 4. |
Or
those who do evil deeds think that they can outstrip Us (i.e.
escape Our Punishment)? Evil
is that which they judge! |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 5. |
Whoever
hopes for the Meeting with Allah, then Allah's Term
is surely coming. and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 6. |
And
whosoever strives, he strives only for himself. Verily, Allah
is free of all wants from the 'Alamin (mankind,
jinn, and all that exists). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 7. |
Those
who believe [in the Oneness
of Allah (Monotheism) and in Messenger Muhammad SAW
, and do not apostate because of the harm they receive from the polytheists],
and do righteous good deeds, surely, We shall remit from them their
evil deeds and shall reward them according to the best of that which
they used to do. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 8. |
And
We have enjoined on man to be good and dutiful to his parents, but
if they strive to make you join with Me (in
worship) anything (as
a partner) of which you have
no knowledge, then obey them not. Unto Me is your return, and I shall
tell you what you used to do. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 9. |
And
for those who believe (in the
Oneness of Allah and other items of Faith) and do righteous good deeds, surely, We shall make them enter in (the enterance of) the righteous (i.e. in Paradise). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 10. |
Of
mankind are some who say: "We believe in Allah,"
but if they are made to suffer for the sake of Allah, they
consider the trial of mankind as Allah's punishment, and if
victory comes from your Lord, (the
hypocrites) will say: "Verily!
We were with you (helping you)."
Is not Allah Best Aware of what is in the breast of the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 11. |
Verily,
Allah knows those who believe, and verily, He knows the hypocrites [i.e. Allah will test
the people with good and hard days to discriminate the good from the
wicked (although Allah knows all that before putting them to
test)]. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 12. |
And
those who disbelieve say to those who believe: "Follow our way
and we will verily bear your sins," never will they bear anything
of their sins. Surely, they are liars. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 13. |
And
verily, they shall bear their own loads, and other loads besides their
own, and verily, they shall be questioned on the Day of Resurrection
about that which they used to fabricate. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 14. |
And
indeed We sent Nuh (Noah) to his people, and he stayed among them a thousand years less fifty
years [inviting them to believe
in the Oneness of Allah (Monotheism), and discard the false
gods and other deities], and
the Deluge overtook them while they were Zalimun (wrong-doers, polytheists, disbelievers,
etc.). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 15. |
Then
We saved him and those with him in the ship, and made it (the
ship) as an Ayah (a lesson, a warning, etc.) for the 'Alamin (mankind,
jinns and all that exists). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 16. |
And (remember) Ibrahim (Abraham) when he said to his people: "Worship Allah (Alone),
and fear Him, that is better for you if you did but know. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 17. |
"You
worship besides Allah only idols, and you only invent falsehood.
Verily, those whom you worship besides Allah have no power
to give you provision, so seek your provision from Allah (Alone),
and worship Him (Alone),
and be grateful to Him. To Him (Alone) you will be brought
back. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 18. |
"And
if you deny, then nations before you have denied (their
Messengers). And the duty of
the Messenger is only to convey (the
Message) plainly." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 19. |
See
they not how Allah originates creation, then repeats it. Verily,
that is easy for Allah. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 20. |
Say:
"Travel in the land and see how (Allah) originated creation, and then Allah will bring forth (resurrect) the creation of the Hereafter (i.e. resurrection after death).
Verily, Allah is Able to do all things." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 21. |
He
punishes whom He will, and shows mercy to whom He will, and to Him
you will be returned. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 22. |
And
you cannot escape in the earth or in the heaven. And besides Allah
you have neither any Wali (Protector
or Guardian) nor any Helper. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 23. |
And
those who disbelieve in the Ayat (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah and the Meeting with Him, it is they who have no hope of
My Mercy, and it is they who will (have) a painful torment. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 24. |
So
nothing was the answer of [Ibrahim's
(Abraham)] people except that
they said: "Kill him or burn him." Then Allah saved him
from the fire. Verily, in this are indeed signs for a people who believe. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 25. |
And [Ibrahim (Abraham)] said: "You have taken (for
worship) idols instead of Allah,
and the love between you is only in the life of this world, but on
the Day of Resurrection, you shall disown each other, and curse each
other, and your abode will be the Fire, and you shall have no helper." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 26. |
So
Lout (Lot) believed in him [Ibrahim's
(Abraham) Message of Islamic Monotheism].
He [Ibrahim (Abraham)] said: "I will emigrate for the sake of my Lord. Verily, He is
the All-Mighty, the All-Wise." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 27. |
And
We bestowed on him [Ibrahim
(Abraham)], Ishaque (Isaac) and Ya'qub (Jacob),
and ordained among his offspring Prophethood and the Book [i.e. the Taurat (Torah) (to Musa
Moses), the Injeel (Gospel) (to 'Iesa Jesus), the Qur-an (to Muhammad
SAW), all from the offspring of Ibrahim (Abraham)],
and We granted him his reward in this world, and verily, in the Hereafter
he is indeed among the righteous. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 28. |
And (remember) Lout (Lot),
when he said to his people: "You commit Al-Fahishah (sodomy
the worst sin) which none has preceded you in (committing) it in the 'Alamin (mankind and
jinns)." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 29. |
"Verily,
you do sodomy with men, and rob the wayfarer (travellers,
etc.)! And practise Al-Munkar (disbelief and polytheism and
every kind of evil wicked deed) in your meetings." But his people gave no answer except, that
they said: "Bring Allah's Torment upon us if you are one of the
truthful." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 30. |
He
said: "My Lord! Give me victory over the people who are Mufsidun (those who commit great crimes
and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupts). |
