The
Event (the Hour or the punishment
of disbelievers and polytheists or the Islamic laws or commandments),
ordained by Allah will come to pass, so seek not to hasten it. Glorified
and Exalted be He above all that they associate as partners with Him. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. |
He
sends down the angels with inspiration of His Command to whom of His
slaves He pleases (saying):
"Warn mankind that La ilaha illa Ana (none
has the right to be worshipped but I),
so fear Me (by abstaining from
sins and evil deeds). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 3. |
He
has created the heavens and the earth with truth. High be He Exalted
above all they associate as partners with Him. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 4. |
He
has created man from Nutfah (mixed
drops of male and female sexual discharge),
then behold, this same (man)
becomes an open opponent. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 5. |
And
the cattle, He has created them for you; in them there is warmth
(warm clothing),
and numerous benefits, and of them you eat. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 6. |
And
wherein is beauty for you, when you bring them home in the evening,
and as you lead them forth to pasture in the morning. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. |
And
they carry your loads to a land that you could not reach except with
great trouble to yourselves. Truly, your Lord is full of Kindness,
Most Merciful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. |
And
(He has created)
horses, mules and donkeys, for you to ride and as an adornment. And
He creates (other)
things of which you have no knowledge. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 9. |
And
upon Allah is the responsibility to explain the Straight Path
(i.e. Islamic Monotheism for mankind
i.e. to show them legal and illegal, good and evil things, etc. so,
whosoever accepts the guidance, it will be for his own benefit and
whosoever goes astray, it will be for his own destruction),
but there are ways that turn aside (such
as Paganism, Judaism, Christianity, etc.).
And had He willed, He would have guided you all (mankind). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 10. |
He
it is Who sends down water (rain)
from the sky; from it you drink and from it (grows)
the vegetation on which you send your cattle to pasture; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
11. |
With
it He causes to grow for you the crops, the olives, the date-palms,
the grapes, and every kind of fruit. Verily! In this is indeed an
evident proof and a manifest sign for people who give thought. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 12. |
And
He has subjected to you the night and the day, the sun and the moon;
and the stars are subjected by His Command. Surely, in this are proofs
for people who understand. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 13. |
And
whatsoever He has created for you on this earth of varying colours
[and qualities from vegetation
and fruits, etc. (botanical life) and from animal (zoological life)].
Verily! In this is a sign for people who remember. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
14. |
And
He it is Who has subjected the sea (to
you), that you eat thereof fresh
tender meat (i.e. fish),
and that you bring forth out of it ornaments to wear. And you see
the ships ploughing through it, that you may seek (thus)
of His Bounty (by transporting
the goods from place to place)
and that you may be grateful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
15. |
And
He has affixed into the earth mountains standing firm, lest it should
shake with you, and rivers and roads, that you may guide yourselves. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 16. |
And
landmarks (signposts, etc.
during the day) and by the stars
(during the night),
they (mankind)
guide themselves. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 17. |
Is
then He, Who creates as one who creates not? Will you not then remember? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 18. |
And
if you would count the graces of Allah, never could you be able to
count them. Truly! Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 19. |
And
Allah knows what you conceal and what you reveal. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 20. |
Those
whom they (Al-Mushrikun)
invoke besides Allah have not created anything, but are themselves
created. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
21. |
(They
are) dead, lifeless, and they
know not when they will be raised up. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
22. |
Your
Ilah (God)
is One Ilah (God Allah, none
has the right to be worshipped but He).
But for those who believe not in the Hereafter, their hearts deny
(the faith in the Oneness of
Allah), and they are proud. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 23. |
Certainly,
Allah knows what they conceal and what they reveal. Truly, He likes
not the proud. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
24. |
And
when it is said to them: "What is it that your Lord has sent
down (unto Muhammad SAW)?"
They say: "Tales of the men of old!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
25. |
They
will bear their own burdens in full on the Day of Resurrection, and
also of the burdens of those whom they misled without knowledge. Evil
indeed is that which they shall bear! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
26. |
Those
before them indeed plotted, but Allah struck at the foundation of
their building, and then the roof fell down upon them, from above
them, and the torment overtook them from directions they did not perceive. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
27. |
Then,
on the Day of Resurrection, He will disgrace them and will say: "Where
are My (so called)
'partners' concerning whom you used to disagree and dispute
(with the believers, by defying and
disobeying Allah)?" Those
who have been given the knowledge (about
the Torment of Allah for the disbelievers)
will say: "Verily! Disgrace this Day and misery are upon the
disbelievers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 28. |
"Those
whose lives the angels take while they are doing wrong to themselves
(by disbelief and by associating
partners in worship with Allah and by committing all kinds of crimes
and evil deeds)." Then,
they will make (false)
submission (saying):
"We used not to do any evil." (The
angels will reply): "Yes!
Truly, Allah is All-Knower of what you used to do. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
29. |
"So
enter the gates of Hell, to abide therein, and indeed, what an evil
abode will be for the arrogant." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 30. |
And
(when)
it is said to those who are the Muttaqun (pious
- see V.2:2) "What is it
that your Lord has sent down?" They say: "That which is
good." For those who do good in this world, there is good, and
the home of the Hereafter will be better. And excellent indeed will
be the home (i.e. Paradise)
of the Muttaqun (pious - see
V.2:2). |
