Hallowed
be He Who translated His bondman in a night from the Sacred Mosque
to the Furthest Mosque, the environs whereof We have blest, that We
might shew him of Our signs; verily He! He is the Hearer, the Beholder. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. |
And
We vouchsafed unto Musa the Book and We appointed it as a guidance
to the Children of Isra'il: take not beside Me a trustee. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 3. |
O
progeny of those whom We bare with Nuh: verily he was a bondman grateful. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 4. |
And
We decreed unto the Children of Isra'il in the Book; ye will surely
cause corruption in the land twice, l and ye will surely rise to a
great height. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 5. |
Then
when the promise for the first of the two came, We raised against
you bondmen of Ours endued with exceeding violence, so they entered
the dwellings; and it was a promise fulfilled. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 6. |
Thereafter
We gave you a return of victory over them, and We supported you with
riches and children, and We made you a numerous concourse. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. |
If
ye will do well ye will do well for yourselves, and if ye will do
evil it will be against the same. Then when the promise of the second
came, We raised up a people that they may disgrace your faces and
may enter the Mosque even as they entered it the first time, and that
they may destroy with utter destruction whatsoever may fall under
their power. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. |
Belike
your Lord may yet have mercy on you; and if ye still revert, We will
revert. And We have appointed Hell for the infidels a prison. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 9. |
Verily
this Qur'an guideth unto that path which its sraightest and beareth
glad tidings to the believers who work righteous deeds that for them
shall be a hire great. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 10. |
And
that those who believe not in the Hereafter--for them We have gotten
ready a torment afflictive. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
11. |
And
man prayeth for evil the prayer he should make for good, and man is
ever hasty. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 12. |
And
We have appointed the night and the day as two signs; then We blurred
the sign of the night and made the sign of the day illuminating that
ye may seek grace from Your Lord, and that ye may know the number
of the years and the reckoning; and everything We have detailed in
full details. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 13. |
And
every man: We have fastened his action round his neck, and We shall
bring forth unto him on the Day of Judgment a book proffered him open. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
14. |
Read
thine book; sufficeth to-day thy soul against thee as a reckoner. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
15. |
Whosoever
is guided, it is only for himself that he is guided and whosoever
Strayeth, it is only against the same that he strayeth; and a burthen-bearer
beareth not the burthen of anot her. And We have not been tormentors
until We had raised an apostle. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 16. |
And
when We intend that We shall destroy a town We command the affluent
people thereof, then they transgress therein; wherefore the word is
justified on them; then We annihilate it with Utter annihilation. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 17. |
How
many a generation have We destroyed after Nuh; and sufficeth for the
offences of His bondmen thy Lord as the Aware, the Beholder. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 18. |
Whosoever
intendeth the quick Passing world, We hasten to him therein whatsoever
We please unto whomsoever We intend; thereafter We shall appoint for
him Hell wherein he shall roast, reproved, rejected. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 19. |
And
whosoever intendeth the Hereafter and striveth therefor with due striving,
while he is a believer, then those: their striving shall be appreciated. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 20. |
To
each--these and those--We extend of the bestowment of thy Lord; and
the bestowment of thy Lord is never restrained. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
21. |
Behold
thou! how We have preferred some of them over some others; and surely:
the Hereafter is greater in degrees and greater in preferment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
22. |
Set
not up along with Allah anot her god, lest thou sit down reproved,
renounced. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 23. |
And
thy Lord hath decreed that ye shall Worship none but Him, and unto
parents shew kindness; and if either of them or both of them attain
old age with thee, Say not unto them: pooh: And browbeat them not,
and Speak unto them a respectful speech. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
24. |
And
lower unto them the wing of meekness out of mercy, and say: O my Lord!
have mercy on the twain even as they brought me up when young. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
25. |
Your
Lord is the Best Knower of that which is in your souls; if ye have
been righteous, then He is unto thee Oftreturning, Forgiving. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
26. |
And
give thou to the kinsman his due, and also unto the needy and the
wayfarer; and squander not in squandering. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
27. |
Verily
the squanderers are ever the brethren of the Satans, and the satan
is ever unto his Lord ungrateful. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 28. |
And
if thou turnest away from them awaiting a mercy from thy Lord which
thou hopest, then speak unto them a gentle speech. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
29. |
And
let not thine hand be chained to thy neck, nor stretch it forth to
the utmost stretching, lest thou sit down reproached, impoverished. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 30. |
Verily
thy Lord extendeth the provision for whomsoever He will and He measureth
it out; verily He is in respect of His bondmen Aware, Beholder. |
