If
Allah were to punish men for their wrongdoing, He would not leave,
on the (earth),
a single living creature: but He gives them respite for a stated Term:
when their Term expires, they would not be able to delay (the
punishment) for a single hour,
just as they would not be able to anticipate it (for
a single hour). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
62. |
They
attribute to Allah what they hate (for
themselves). And their tongues
assert the falsehood that all good things are for themselves: without
doubt for them is the Fire, and they will be the first to be hastened
on into it! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
63. |
By
Allah, We (also)
sent (our messengers)
to Peoples before you; but Satan made, (to
the wicked), their own acts
seem alluring: he is also their patron today, but they shall have
a most grievous penalty |
|
|
|
|
|
|
64. |
And
We sent down the Book to you for the express purpose, that you should
make clear to them those things in which they differ, and that it
should be a guide and a mercy to those who believe. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
65. |
And
Allah sends down rain from the skies, and gives therewith life to
the earth after its death: verily in this is a Sign for those who
listen. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 66. |
And
verily in cattle (too)
will you find an instructive Sign. From what is within their bodies,
between excretions and blood, We produce, for your drink, milk, pure
and agreeable to those who drink it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
67. |
And
from the fruit of the date-palm and the vine, you get out wholesome
drink, and food: behold, in this also is a Sign for those who are
wise. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
68. |
And
your Lord taught the Bee to build its cells in hills, on trees, and
in (men's)
habitations; |
|
|
|
|
|
| 69. |
Then
to eat of all the produce (of
the earth), and find with skill
the spacious paths of its Lord: there issues from within their bodies
a drink of varying colors, wherein is healing for men: verily in this
is a Sign for those who give thought. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 70. |
It
is Allah who creates you and takes your souls at death; and of you
there are some who are sent back to a feeble age, so that they know
nothing after having known (much):
for Allah is All-Knowing, All-Powerful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
71. |
Allah
has bestowed His gifts of sustenance more freely on some of you than
on others: those more favored are not going to throw back their gifts
to those whom their right hands possess, so as to be equal in that
respect. Will they then deny the favors of Allah? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
72. |
And
Allah has made for you Mates (and
Companions) of your own nature,
and made for you, out of them, sons and daughters and grandchildren.
And provided for you sustenance of the best: will they then believe
in vain things, and be ungrateful for Allah's favors?-- |
|
|
|
|
|
| 73. |
And
worship others than Allah--such as have no power of providing them,
for sustenance, with anything in heavens or earth, and cannot possibly
have Such power? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
74. |
Invent
not similitude for Allah: for Allah knows, and you know not. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
75. |
Allah
sets forth the Parable (of
two men: one) a slave under
the dominion of another; he has no power of any sort; and (the
other) a human on whom We have
bestowed goodly favors from Ourselves. And he spends thereof (freely),
privately and publicly: are the two equal? (By
no means); praise be to Allah.
But most of them understand not. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
76. |
Allah
sets forth (another)
Parable of two men: one of them dumb, with no power of any sort; a
wearisome burden is he to his master; whichever way he directs him,
he brings no good: is such a human equal with one who commands justice,
and is on a straight way? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 77. |
To
Allah belongs the mystery of the heavens and the earth. And the Decision
of the Hour (of Judgment)
is as the twinkling of an eye, or even quicker: for Allah has power
over all things. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
78. |
It
is He Who brought you forth from the wombs of your mothers when you
knew nothing; and He gave you hearing and sight and intelligence and
affections: that you may give thanks (to
Allah). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 79. |
Do
they not look at the birds, held poised in the midst of (the
air and) the sky? Nothing holds
them up but (the power of)
Allah. Verily in this are Signs for those who believe. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 80. |
It
is Allah who made your habitations homes of rest and quiet for you;
and made for you, out of the skins of animals, (tents
for) dwellings, which you find
so light (and handy)
when you travel and when you stop (in
your travels), and out of their
wool, and their soft fibers (between
wool and hair), and their hair,
rich stuff and articles of convenience (to
serve you) for a time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
81. |
It
is Allah who made out of the things He created, some things to give
you shade; of the hills He made some for your shelter; He made you
garments to protect you from heat, and coats of mail to protect you
from your (mutual)
violence. Thus does He complete his favors on you, that you may bow
to His will (in Islam). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
82. |
But
if they turn away, your duty is only to preach the Clear Message. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 83. |
They
recognize the favors of Allah; then they deny them; and most of them
are (creatures)
ungrateful |
|
|
|
|
|
|
84. |
One
day We shall raise from all Peoples a Witness: then will no excuse
be accepted from Unbelievers, nor will they receive any favors. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
85. |
When
the wrongdoers (actually)
see the Penalty, then will it in no way be mitigated, nor will they
then receive respite. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
86. |
When
those who gave partners to Allah will see their "partners",
they will say: "Our Lord! These are our `partners', those whom
we used to invoke besides you." But they will throw back their
word at them (and say):
"Indeed you are liars!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
87. |
That
day shall they (openly)
show (their)
submission to Allah; and all their inventions shall leave them in
the lurch. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
88. |
Those
who reject Allah and hinder (men)
from the Path of Allah--for them will We add Penalty to Penalty; for
that they used to spread mischief. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
89. |
One
day We shall raise from all Peoples a witness against them, from amongst
themselves: and We shall bring you as a witness against these
(your people): and We have sent
down to you the Book explaining all things, a Guide, a Mercy, and
Glad Tidings to Muslims. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 90. |
Allah
commands justice, the doing of good, and liberality to kith and kin,
and He forbids all shameful deeds, and injustice and rebellion: He
instructs you, that you may receive admonition. |
