He is the Irresistible, (watching)
from above over his worshippers, and He sets guardians over you. At
length, when death approaches one of you, Our angels take his soul,
and they never fail in their duty. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
62. |
Then are men returned unto Allah, their
True Protector, surely His is the Command, And He is the Swiftest
in taking account. |
|
|
|
|
|
|

Say: "Who is it that delivers
you from the dark recesses of land and sea, when you call upon Him
in humility and silent terror: ‘if He only delivers us from these
(dangers),
(we vow)
we shall truly show our gratitude'.?" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
64. |
Say: "It is Allah that delivers
you from these and all (other)
distresses: and yet you worship false gods!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
65. |
Say: "He has power to send calamities
on you, from above and below, or to cover you with confusion in party
strife, giving you a taste of mutual vengeance - each from the other."
See how We explain the Signs by various (symbols);
that they may understand. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 66. |
But your people reject this, though
it is the Truth. Say: "Not mine is the responsibility for arranging
your affairs; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
67. |
"For every Message is a limit
of time, and soon shall you know it." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
68. |
When you see men engaged in vain discourse
about Our Signs, turn away from them unless they turn to a different
theme. If Satan ever makes you forget, then after recollection, sit
not you in the company of those who do wrong. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 69. |
On their account no responsibility
falls on the righteous, but
(their duty) is to remind them,
that they may (learn to)
fear Allah. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 70. |
Leave alone those who take their religion
to be mere play and amusement, and are deceived by the life of this
world. But proclaim (to them)
this (truth):
that every soul delivers itself to ruin by its own acts; it will find
for itself no protector or intercessor except Allah; if it offered
every ransom, (or reparation),
none will be accepted; such is
(the end of) those who deliver
themselves to ruin by their own acts: they will have for drink
(only)
boiling water, and for punishment, one most grievous; for they persisted
in rejecting Allah. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 71. |
Say: "Shall we indeed call on
others besides Allah - things that can do us neither good nor harm
- and turn on our heels after receiving guidance from Allah - Like
one whom the evil ones have made into a fool, wandering bewildered
through the earth, his friends calling ‘Come to us,' (vainly)
guiding him to the Path." Say: "Allah's guidance is the
(only)
guidance, and we have been directed to submit ourselves to the Lord
of the worlds - |
|
|
|
|
|
| 72. |
"To establish regular prayers
and to fear Allah: for it is to him that we shall be gathered together." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 73. |
It is He Who created the heavens and
the earth in true (proportions):
the day He says, "Be," Behold! it is. His Word is the Truth.
His will be the dominion the day the trumpet will be blown. He knows
the Unseen as well as that which is open. For He is the Wise, well
acquainted (with all things). |
|
|
|
|
|

Lo! Abraham said to his father Azar:
"Takes your idols for gods? for I see you and your people in
manifest error." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 75. |
So also did We show Abraham the power
and the laws of the heavens and the earth, that he might (with
understanding) have certitude. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 76. |
When the night covered him over, he
saw a star: he said: "this is my Lord." But when it set,
he said: "I love not those that set." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 77. |
When he saw the moon rising in splendor,
He said: "This is my Lord." but when the moon set, he said:
"Unless my Lord guide me, I shall surely be among those who go
astray." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 78. |
When he saw the sun rising in splendor,
he said: "This is my Lord; this is the greatest (of
all)." But when the sun
set, he said: "O my people! I am (now)
free from your (guilt)
of giving partners to Allah. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 79. |
"For me, I have set my face, firmly
and truly, toward Him Who created the heavens and the earth, and never
shall I give partners to Allah." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 80. |
His people disputed with him. He said:
"(Come)
you to dispute with me, about Allah, when He (Himself)
has guided me? I fear not (the
beings) you associate with Allah:
unless my Lord wills, (nothing
can happen). My Lord comprehends
in His knowledge all things: will you not (yourselves)
be admonished? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 81. |
"How should I fear (the
beings) you associate with Allah,
when you fear not to give partners to Allah without any warrant having
been given to you? Which of (us)
two parties has more right to security? (tell
me) if you know. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 82. |
"It is those who believe and confuse
not their beliefs with wrong - that are (truly)
in security, for they are on
(right) guidance." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 83. |
That was the reasoning about Us, which
We gave to Abraham (to use)
against his people: We raise whom We will, degree after degree: for
your Lord is full of wisdom and knowledge. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 84. |
We gave him Isaac and Jacob: all
(three)
We guided: and before him, We guided Noah, and among his progeny,
David, Solomon, Job, Joseph, Moses, and Aaron: thus do We reward those
who do good: |
|
|
|
|
|
| 85. |
And Zakariya and John, and Jesus and
Elias: all in the ranks of the righteous: |
|
|
|
|
|
| 86. |
And Ismail and Elisha, and Jonah, and
Lot: and to all We gave favor above the nations: |
|
|
|
|
|
| 87. |
(To them)
and to their fathers, and progeny and brethren: We chose them, and
We guided them to a straight Way. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 88. |
This is the Guidance of Allah: He gives
that guidance to whom He pleases of His worshippers. If they were
to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 89. |
These were the men to whom We gave
the Book, and Authority, and Prophethood: if these (their
descendants) reject them, behold!
We shall entrust their charge to a new People who reject them not. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 90. |
Those were the (prophets)
who received Allah's guidance: copy the guidance they received; Say:
"No reward for this do I ask of you: this is no less than a Message
for the nations." |
