91. |
So (it
was). And We knew all concerning
him. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
92. |
Then he followed a road |
|
|
|
|
|
|
93. |
Till, when he came between the two
mountains, he found upon their hither side a folk that scarce could
understand a saying. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
94. |
They said: O Dhul-Qarneyn! Lo! Gog
and Magog are spoiling the land. So may we pay you tribute on condition
that you set a barrier between us and them? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
95. |
He said: That wherein my Lord has established
me better (than your tribute).
Do but help me with strength (of
men), I will set between you
and them a bank. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 96. |
Give me pieces of iron--till, when
he had levelled up (the gap)
between the cliffs, he said:
Blow!--till, when he had made it a fire, he said: Bring me molten
copper to pour thereon. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
97. |
And (Gog
and Magog) were not able to
surmount, nor could they pierce (it). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
98. |
He said: This is a mercy from my Lord;
but when the promise of my Lord comes to pass, He will lay it low,
for the promise of my Lord is true. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 99. |
And on that day We shall let some of
them surge against others, and the Trumpet will be blown. Then We
shall gather them together in one gathering. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 100. |
On that day We shall present hell to
the disbelievers, plain to view, |
|
|
|
|
|
|
101. |
Those whose eyes were hoodwinked from
My reminder, and who could not bear to hear. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 102. |
Do the disbelievers reckon that they
can choose My bondmen as protecting friends beside Me? Lo! We have
prepared hell as a welcome for the disbelievers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 103. |
Say: Shall We inform you who will be
the greatest losers by their works? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
104. |
Those whose effort goes astray in the
life of the world, and yet they reckon that they do good work. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
105. |
Those are they who disbelieve in the
revelations of their Lord and in the meeting with Him. Therefore their
works are vain, and on the Day of Resurrection We assign no weight
to them. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 106. |
That is their reward: hell, because
they disbelieved, and made a jest of Our revelations and Our messengers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 107. |
Lo! those who believe and do good works,
theirs are the Gardens of Paradise, for welcome, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 108. |
Wherein they will abide, with no desire
to be removed from thence. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 109. |
Say: Though the sea became ink for
the Words of my Lord, verily the sea would be used up before the Words
of my Lord were exhausted, even though We brought the like thereof
to help. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 110. |
Say: I am only a mortal like you. My
Lord inspires in me that your God is only One God. And whoever hopes
for the meeting with his Lord, let him do righteous work, and make
none sharer of the worship due unto his Lord. |
