They said: O Shueyb! We understand
not much of that you tellest, and lo! we do behold you weak among
us. But for your family, we should have stoned you, for you are not
strong against us. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 92. |
He said: O my people! Is my family
more to be honored by you than Allah? And you put Him behind you,
neglected! Lo! my Lord surrounds what you do. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 93. |
And, O my people! Act according to
your power, lo, I (too)
am acting. You will soon know on whom there comes a doom that will
abase him, and who it is that lies. And watch! Lo! I am watcher with
you. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 94. |
And when Our commandment came to pass
we saved Shueyb and those who believed with Him by a mercy from Us;
and the (Awful)
Cry seized those who did injustice, and morning found them prostrate
in their dwellings. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 95. |
As though they had not dwelt there.
A far removal for Midian, even as Thamud had been removed afar! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 96. |
And verily We sent Moses {Musa}
with Our revelations and a clear warrant. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 97. |
Unto Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they
did follow the command of Pharaoh, and the command of Pharaoh was
no right guide. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 98. |
He will go before his people on the
Day of Resurrection and will lead them to the Fire for watering place.
Ah, hapless is the watering place
(whither they are) led. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 99. |
A curse is made to follow them in the
world and on the Day of Resurrection. Hapless is the gift
(that will be)
given (them). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 100. |
That is (something)
of the tidings of the townships' (which
were destroyed of old). We relate
it unto you (Muhammad).
Some of them are standing and some (already)
reaped. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
101. |
We wronged them not, but they did wrong
themselves; and their gods on whom they call beside Allah availed
them naught then came your Lords command; they added to them naught
save ruin. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 102. |
Even thus is the grasp of your Lord
when he grasps the townships while they are doing wrong. Lo! His grasp
is painful, very strong. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 103. |
Lo! herein verily there is a portent
for those who fear the doom of the Hereafter. That is a day unto which
mankind will be gathered, and that is a day that will be witnessed. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
104. |
And We defer it only as a term already
reckoned. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
105. |
On the day when it comes no soul will
sneak except by His permission; some among them will be wretched,
(others)
glad. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 106. |
As for those who will be wretched
(on that day)
they will be in the Fire; sighing and wailing will be their portion
therein. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 107. |
Abiding there so long as the heavens
and the earth endure save for that which your Lord wills. Lo! your
Lord is Doer of what He will. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 108. |
And as for those who will be glad
(that day)
they will be in the Garden, abiding there so long as the heavens and
the earth endure save for that which your Lord wills: a gift unfailing. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 109. |
So be not you in doubt concerning that
which these (folk)
worship. They worship only as their fathers worshipped aforetime.
Lo! We shall pay them their whole due unabated. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 110. |
And We verily gave unto Moses
{Musa}
the Scripture, and there was strife thereupon; and had it not been
for a Word that had already gone forth from your Lord, the case would
have been judged between them, and Lo! they are in grave doubt concerning
it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
111. |
And lo! unto each your Lord will verily
repay his works in full. Lo! He is Informed of what they do. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
112. |
So tread you the straight path as you
are commanded, and those who turn (unto
Allah) with you, and transgress
not. Lo! He is Seer of what you do. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 113. |
And incline not toward those who do
wrong lest the Fire touch you, and you have no protecting friends
against Allah, and afterward you would not be helped. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
114. |
Establish worship at the two ends of
the day and in some watches of the night. Lo! good deeds annul ill
deeds. This is a reminder for the mindful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
115. |
And have patience, (O
Muhammad), for lo! Allah loses
not the wages of the good. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
116. |
If only there had been among the generations
before you men possessing a remnant (of
good sense) to warn (their
people) from corruption in the
earth, as did a few of those whom We saved from them! The wrong-doers
followed that by which they were made sapless, and were guilty. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
117. |
In truth your Lord destroyed not the
townships tyrannously while their folk were doing right. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
118. |
And if your Lord had willed, He verily
would have made mankind one nation, yet they cease not differing, |
|
|
|
|
|
|
119. |
Save him on whom your Lord has mercy;
and for that He did create them. And the Word of your Lord has been
fulfilled: Verily I shall fill hell with the jinn and mankind together. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 120. |
And all that We relate unto you of
the story of the messengers is in order that thereby We may make firm
your heart. And herein has come unto you the Truth and an exhortation
and a reminder for believers. |
