He said: O my people! There Is no error
in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
62. |
I convey unto you the messages of my
Lord and give good counsel unto you, and know from Allah that which
you know not. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
63. |
Marvel you that there should come unto
you a Reminder from your Lord by means of a man among you, that he
may warn you, and that you may keep from evil, and that haply you
may find mercy. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
64. |
But they denied him, so We saved him
and those with him in the ship, and We drowned those who denied Our
token. Lo! they were blind folk. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
65. |
And unto (the
tribe of) Aad (We
sent) their brother, Hud. He
said : O my people! Serve Allah. You have no other God save Him. Will
you not ward off (evil)? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 66. |
The chieftains of his people, who were
disbelieving, said: Lo! we surely see you in foolishness, and lo!
we deem you of the liars. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
67. |
He said : O my people; There is no
foolishness in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
68. |
I convey unto you the messages of my
Lord and am for you a true adviser. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 69. |
Marvel you that there should come unto
you a Reminder from your Lord by means of a man among you, that he
may warn you? Remember how He made you viceroys after Noah's folk,
and gave you growth of stature. Remember (all)
the bounties of your Lord, that haply you may be successful. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 70. |
They said: Have come unto us that we
should serve Allah alone, and forsake what our fathers worshipped?
Then bring upon us that wherewith you threatenest us if you are of
the truth. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
71. |
He said: Terror and wrath from your
Lord have already fallen on you. Would you wrangle with me over names
which you have named, you and your fathers, for which no warrant from
Allah has been revealed? Then await (the
consequence), lo! I (also)
am of those awaiting (it). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
72. |
And We saved him and those with him
by a mercy from Us, and We cut the root of those who denied Our revelations
and were not believers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 73. |
And to (the
tribe of) Thamud (We
sent) their brother Salih. He
said: O my people! Serve Allah. You have no other God save Him. A
wonder from your Lord has come unto you. Lo! this is the camel of
Allah, a token unto you; so let her feed in Allah's earth, and touch
her not with hurt lest painful torment seize you. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
74. |
And remember how He made you viceroys
after 'Aad and gave you station in the earth. You choose castles in
the plains and hew the mountains into dwellings. So remember
(all)
the bounties of Allah and do not evil, making mischief in the earth. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
75. |
The chieftains of his people, who were
scornful, said unto those whom they despised, unto such of them as
believed: Know you that Salih is one sent from his Lord? They said
: Lo! In that wherewith he has been sent we are believers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
76. |
Those who were scornful said : Lo!
in that which you believe we are disbelievers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 77. |
So they hamstrung the she-camel, and
they flouted the commandment of their Lord, and they said: O Salih!
Bring upon us that you threaten if you are indeed of those sent
(from Allah). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
78. |
So the earthquake seized them, and
morning found them prostrate in their dwelling place. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 79. |
And Salih turned on them and said :
O my people! I delivered my Lord's message unto you and gave you good
advice, but you love not good advisers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 80. |
And Lot! (Remember)
when he said unto his folk: Will you commit abomination such as no
creature ever did before you? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
81. |
Lo! you come with lust unto men instead
of women. Nay, but you, are wanton folk. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
82. |
And the answer of his people was only
that they said (one to another):
Turn them out of your township. They are folk, forsooth, who keep
pure. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 83. |
And We rescued him and his household,
save his wife, who was of those who stayed behind. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
84. |
And We rained a rain upon them. See
now the nature of the consequence for evil doers! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
85. |
And unto Midian (We
sent) their brother, Shu'eyb.
He said: O my people! Serve Allah. You have no other God save Him.
Lo! a clear proof has come unto you from your Lord; so give full measure
and full weight and wrong not mankind in their goods, and work not
confusion in the earth after the fair ordering thereof. That will
be better for you, if you are believers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
86. |
Lurk not on every road to threaten
(wayfarers),
and to turn away from Allah's path him who believes in Him, and to
seek to make it crooked. And remember, when you were but few, how
He did multiply you. And see the nature of the consequence for the
corrupters! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
87. |
And if there is a party of you which
believes in that wherewith I have been sent, and there is a party
which believes not, then have patience until Allah judge between us.
He is the best of all who deal in judgment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
88. |
The chieftains of his people, who were
scornful, said: Surely we will drive you out, O Shu'eyb, and those
who believe with you, from our township, unless you return to our
religion. He said : Even though we hate it? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
89. |
We should have invented a lie against
Allah if we returned to your religion after Allah has rescued us from
it. It is not for us to return to it unless Allah should (so)
will. Our Lord comprehends
all things in knowledge. In Allah do we put our trust. Our Lord! Decide
with truth between us and our folk, for You are the best of those
who make decision. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 90. |
But the chieftains of his people, who
were disbelieving, said: If you follow Shueyb, then truly we shall
be the losers. |
