He is the Omnipotent over His slaves.
He sends guardians over you until, when death comes unto one of you,
Our messengers receive him, and they neglect not. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
62. |
Then are they restored unto Allah,
their Lord, the Just. Surely His is the judgment. And He is the most
swift of reckoners. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
63. |
Say: Who delivers you from the darkness
of the land and the sea? You call upon Him humbly and in secret, (saying):
If we are delivered from this
(fear) we truly will be of the
thankful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
64. |
Say: Allah delivers you from this and
from all afflictions. Yet you attribute partners unto Him. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
65. |
Say: He is able to send punishment
upon you from above you or from beneath your feet, or to bewilder
you with dissension and make you taste the tyranny one of another.
See how We display the revelations so that they may understand. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 66. |
Your people (O
Muhammad) have denied it, though
it is the Truth. Say: I am not put in charge of you. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
67. |
For every announcement there is a term,
and you will come to know. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
68. |
And when you see those who meddle with
Our revelations, withdraw from them until they meddle with another
topic. And if the devil cause you to forget, sit not, after the remembrance,
with the congregation of wrong-doers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 69. |
Those who ward off (evil)
are not accountable for them in aught, but the Reminder (must
be given them) that haply they
(too)
may ward off (evil). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 70. |
And forsake those who take their religion
for a pastime and a jest, and whom the life of the world beguiles.
Remind (mankind)
hereby lest a soul be destroyed by what it earns. It has beside Allah
no friend nor intercessor, and though it offer every compensation
it will not be accepted from it. Those are they who perish by their
own deserts. For them is drink of boiling water and a painful doom,
because they disbelieved. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 71. |
Say: Shall we cry, instead of unto
Allah, unto that which neither profits us nor hurts us, and shall
we turn back after Allah has guided us, like one bewildered whom the
devils have infatuated in the earth, who has companions who invite
him to the guidance (saying):
Come unto us? Say: Lo! the guidance of Allah is Guidance, and we are
ordered to surrender to the Lord of the Worlds, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 72. |
And to establish worship and ward off
(evil),
and He it is unto Whom you will be gathered. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 73. |
He it is Who created the heavens and
the earth in truth. In that day when He says: Be! it is. His word
is the truth, and His will be the Sovereignty on the day when the
trumpet is blown. Knower of the invisible and the visible, He is the
Wise, the Aware. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 74. |
(Remember)
when Abraham {Ibrahim}
said unto his father Azar: Takes you idols for gods? Lo! I see you
and your folk in error manifest. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 75. |
Thus did We show Abraham {Ibrahim}
the kingdom of the heavens and the earth that he mighty be of those
possessing certainty: |
|
|
|
|
|
| 76. |
When the night grew dark upon him he
beheld a star. He said: This is my Lord. But when it set, he said:
I love not things that set. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 77. |
And when he saw the moon uprising,
he exclaimed: This my Lord. But when it set, he said: Unless my Lord
guide me, I surely shall become one of the folk who are astray. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 78. |
And when he saw the sun uprising, he
cried: This is my Lord! This is greater! And when it, set be exclaimed:
O my people! Lo! I am free from all that you associate (with
Him). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 79. |
Lo! I have turned my face toward him
Who created the heavens and the earth, as one by nature upright, and
I am not of the idolaters. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 80. |
His people argued with him. He said:
Dispute you with me concerning Allah when He has guided me? I fear
not at all that which you set beside Him unless my Lord wills. My
Lord includes all things in His knowledge: Will you not then remember? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 81. |
How should I fear that which you set
up beside Him, when you fear not to set up beside Allah that for which
He has revealed unto you no warrant? `Which of the two factions has
more right to safety?, (Answer
me that) if you have knowledge. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 82. |
Those who believe and obscure not their
belief by wrong doing, theirs is safety; and they are rightly guided. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 83. |
That is Our argument. We gave it unto
Abraham {Ibrahim}
against his folk. We raise unto degrees of wisdom whom We will. Lo!
your Lord is Wise, Aware {Al-'Alim}. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 84. |
And We bestowed upon him Isaac and
Jacob {Ya'qub};
each of them We guided; and Noah did We guide aforetime; and of his
seed (We guided)
David and Solomon and Job and Joseph {Yusuf}
and Moses {Musa}
and Aaron. Thus do We reward the good. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 85. |
And Zachariah and John and Jesus and
Elias. Each one (of them)
was of the righteous. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 86. |
And Ishmael {Isma'il)
and Elisha and Jonah and Lot. Each one of them did We prefer above
(Our) creatures, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 87. |
With some of their forefathers and
you offspring and you brethren; and We chose them and guided them
unto a straight path: |
|
|
|
|
|
| 88. |
Such is the guidance of Allah wherewith
He guides whom He will of His bondmen. But if they had set up
(for worship)
aught beside Him, (all)
that they did would have been vain. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 89. |
Those are they unto whom We gave the
Scripture and command and Prophethood. But if these disbelieve therein,
then indeed We shall entrust it to a people who will not be disbelievers
therein. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 90. |
Those are they whom Allah guides, so
follow their guidance. Say (O
Muhammad, unto mankind): I ask
of you no fee for it. Lo! it is naught but a Reminder to (His)
creatures. |
