|
|

So the earthquake seized
them and they lay (dead), prostrate
in their homes. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 92. |
Those
who belied Shu'ayb, became as if they had never dwelt there (in their homes).
Those who belied Shu'ayb, they were the losers. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 93. |
Then he (Shu'ayb) turned from them and said: "O my people! I have indeed conveyed
my Lord's Messages unto you and I have given you good advice. Then
how can I sorrow for the disbelieving people's (destruction)." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 94. |
And
We sent no Prophet unto any town (and
they denied him),
but We seized its people with suffering from extreme poverty (or loss in wealth) and loss of health and calamities, so that they might humiliate themselves (and repent
to Allah). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 95. |
Then We changed the
evil for the good, until they increased in number and in wealth, and
said: "Our fathers were touched with evil (loss
of health and calamities) and with good (prosperity)."
So We seized them of a sudden while they were unaware. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 96. |
And
if the people of the towns had believed and had the Taqwa (piety),
certainly, We should have opened for them blessings from the heaven
and the earth, but they belied (the
Messengers).
So We took them (with
punishment) for
what they used to earn (polytheism and crimes). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 97. |
Did the people of the
towns then feel secure against the coming of Our Punishment by night
while they are asleep? |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 98. |
Or,
did the people of the towns then feel secure against the coming of
Our Punishment in the forenoon while they were playing? |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 99. |
Did they then feel secure
against the Plan of Allah. None feels secure from the Plan of Allah
except the people who are the losers. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 100. |
Is
it not clear to those who inherit the earth in succession from its (previous) possessors, that had We willed, We would have punished them for their
sins. And We seal up their hearts so that they hear not? |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 101. |
Those were the towns
whose story We relate unto you [O
Muhammad (Peace be upon him)].
And there came indeed to them their Messengers with clear proofs,
but they were not such as to believe in that which they had rejected
before. Thus Allah does seal up the hearts of the disbelievers (from every kind of
religious guidance). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 102. |
And
most of them We found not (true) to their covenant, but most of them We found indeed Fasiqun (rebellious, disobedient
to Allah). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 103. |
Then after them We sent
Musa (Moses) with Our Signs to Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his chiefs, but they wrongfully rejected them. So see how was
the end of the Mufsidun (mischief-makers,
corrupters). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 104. |
And
Musa (Moses) said: "O Fir'aun (Pharaoh)!
Verily, I am a Messenger from the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind,
jinn and all that exists). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 105. |
"Proper it is for me
that I say nothing concerning Allah but the truth. Indeed I have come
unto you from your Lord with a clear proof. So let the Children of
Israel depart along with me." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 106. |
[Fir'aun
(Pharaoh)] said:
"If you have come with a sign, show it forth, - if you are one of
those who tell the truth." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 107. |
Then [Musa (Moses)] threw
his stick and behold! it was a serpent, manifest! |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 108. |
And
he drew out his hand, and behold! it was white (with
radiance) for
the beholders. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 109. |
The chiefs of the people
of Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "This is indeed a well-versed sorcerer; |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 110. |
"He
wants to get you out of your land, so what do you advise?" |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 111. |
They said: "Put
him and his brother off (for
a time), and
send callers to the cities to collect - |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 112. |
"That
they bring to you all well-versed sorcerers." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 113. |
And so the sorcerers
came to Fir'aun (Pharaoh).
They said: "Indeed there will be a (good) reward for us if we are the victors." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 114. |
He
said: "Yes, and moreover you will (in
that case) be
of the nearest (to
me)." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 115. |
They said: "O Musa (Moses)!
Either you throw (first), or shall
we have the (first) throw?" |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 116. |
He [Musa (Moses)] said: "Throw you (first)."
So when they threw, they bewitched the eyes of the people, and struck
terror into them, and they displayed a great magic. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 117. |
And We revealed to Musa (Moses) (saying):
"Throw your stick," and behold! It swallowed up straight away all
the falsehood which they showed. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 118. |
Thus
truth was confirmed, and all that they did was made of no effect. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 119. |
So they were defeated
there and returned disgraced. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 120. |
And
the sorcerers fell down prostrate. |
