These!
For them will be 'Adn (Eden)
Paradise (everlasting Gardens);
wherein rivers flow underneath them, therein they will be adorned
with bracelets of gold, and they will wear green garments of fine
and thick silk. They will recline therein on raised thrones. How good
is the reward, and what an excellent Murtafaqa (dwelling,
resting place, etc.)! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
32. |
And
put forward to them the example of two men; unto one of them We had
given two gardens of grapes, and We had surrounded both with date-palms;
and had put between them green crops (cultivated
fields etc.). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
33. |
Each
of those two gardens brought forth its produce, and failed not in
the least therein, and We caused a river to gush forth in the midst
of them. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
34. |
And
he had property (or fruit)
and he said to his companion, in the course of mutual talk: I am more
than you in wealth and stronger in respect of men." [See
Tafsir Qurtubi, Vol. 10, Page 403]. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
35. |
And
he went into his garden while in a state (of
pride and disbelief) unjust
to himself. He said: "I think not that this will ever perish. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 36. |
"And
I think not the Hour will ever come, and if indeed I am brought back
to my Lord, (on the Day of Resurrection), I
surely shall find better than this when I return to Him." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
37. |
His
companion said to him, during the talk with him: "Do you disbelieve
in Him Who created you out of dust (i.e.
your father Adam), then out
of Nutfah (mixed semen drops
of male and female discharge),
then fashioned you into a man? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
38. |
"But
as for my part (I believe)
that He is Allah, my Lord and none shall I associate as partner with
my Lord. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 39. |
It
was better for you to say, when you entered your garden: 'That which
Allah wills (will come to pass)! There is no
power but with Allah'. If you see me less than you in wealth, and
children. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 40. |
"It
may be that my Lord will give me something better than your garden,
and will send on it Husban (torment,
bolt, etc.) from the sky, then
it will be a slippery earth. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
41. |
"Or
the water thereof (of the gardens)
becomes deep-sunken (underground)
so that you will never be able to seek it." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
42. |
So
his fruits were encircled (with
ruin). And he remained clapping
his hands with sorrow over what he had spent upon it, while it was
all destroyed on its trellises, he could only say: "Would I had
ascribed no partners to my Lord!" [Tafsir
Ibn Kathir] |
|
|
|
|
|
| 43. |
And
he had no group of men to help him against Allah, nor could he defend
or save himself. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
44. |
There
(on the Day of Resurrection),
Al-Walayah (the protection,
power, authority and kingdom)
will be for Allah (Alone),
the True God. He (Allah)
is the Best for reward and the Best for the final end. (La
ilaha ill-Allah none has the right to be worshipped but Allah). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
45. |
And
put forward to them the example of the life of this world, it is like
the water (rain)
which We send down from the sky, and the vegetation of the earth mingles
with it, and becomes fresh and green. But (later)
it becomes dry and broken pieces, which the winds scatter. And Allah
is Able to do everything. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
46. |
Wealth
and children are the adornment of the life of this world. But the
good righteous deeds (five
compulsory prayers, deeds of Allah's obedience, good and nice talk,
remembrance of Allah with glorification, praises and thanks, etc.),
that last, are better with your Lord for rewards and better in respect
of hope. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 47. |
And
(remember)
the Day We shall cause the mountains to pass away (like
clouds of dust), and you will
see the earth as a levelled plain, and we shall gather them all together
so as to leave not one of them behind. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
48. |
And
they will be set before your Lord in (lines
as) rows, (and
Allah will say): "Now indeed,
you have come to Us as We created you the first time. Nay, but you
thought that We had appointed no meeting for you (with
Us)." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 49. |
And
the Book (one's Record)
will be placed (in the right
hand for a believer in the Oneness of Allah, and in the left hand
for a disbeliever in the Oneness of Allah),
and you will see the Mujrimun
(criminals, polytheists, sinners, etc.),
fearful of that which is (recorded)
therein. They will say: "Woe to us! What sort of Book is this
that leaves neither a small thing nor a big thing, but has recorded
it with numbers!" And they will find all that they did, placed
before them, and your Lord treats no one with injustice. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 50. |
And
(remember)
when We said to the angels; "Prostrate to Adam." So they
prostrated except Iblis (Satan).
He was one of the jinns; he disobeyed the Command of his Lord. Will
you then take him (Iblis)
and his offspring as protectors and helpers rather than Me while they
are enemies to you? What an evil is the exchange for the Zalimun (polytheists,
and wrong-doers, etc). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
51. |
I
(Allah)
made them (Iblis and his offspring)
not to witness (nor took their
help in) the creation of the
heavens and the earth and not (even)
their own creation, nor was I
(Allah) to take the misleaders
as helpers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
52. |
And
(remember)
the Day He will say: "Call those (so-called)
partners of Mine whom you pretended." Then they will cry unto
them, but they will not answer them, and We shall put Maubiqa
(a barrier, or enmity, or destruction,
or a valley in Hell) between
them. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 53. |
And
the Mujrimun (criminals, polytheists,
sinners), shall see the Fire
and apprehend that they have to fall therein. And they will find no
way of escape from there. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
54. |
And
indeed We have put forth every kind of example in this Qur-an, for
mankind. But, man is ever more quarrelsome than anything. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
55. |
And
nothing prevents men from believing, now when the guidance
(the Qur-an)
has come to them, and from asking Forgiveness of their Lord, except
that the ways of the ancients be repeated with them (i.e.
their destruction decreed by Allah),
or the torment be brought to them face to face? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
56. |
And
We send not the Messengers except as giver of glad tidings and warners.
But those who disbelieve, dispute with false argument, in order to
refute the truth thereby. And they treat My Ayat (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.),
and that with which they are warned, as jest and mockery! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
57. |
And
who does more wrong than he who is reminded of the Ayat (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)
of his Lord, but turns away from them forgetting what (deeds)
his hands have sent forth. Truly, We have set veils over their hearts
lest they should understand this (the
Qur-an), and in their ears,
deafness. And if you (O Muhammad
SAW) call them to guidance,
even then they will never be guided. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
58. |
And
your Lord is Most Forgiving, Owner of Mercy. Were He to call them
to account for what they have earned, then surely, He would have hastened
their punishment. But they have their appointed time, beyond which
they will find no escape. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
59. |
And
these towns (population, 'Ad,
Thamud, etc.) We destroyed when
they did wrong. And We appointed a fixed time for their destruction. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 60. |
And
(remember)
when Musa (Moses)
said to his boy-servant: "I will not give up (travelling)
until I reach the junction of the two seas or (until)
I spend years and years in travelling." |
