AlAnbia
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
1. Draws near for mankind their reckoning, while they in heedlessness turn away. 2. There does not come to them an admonition from their Lord as a new (revelation) except they listen to it while they play. 3. Their hearts distracted. And they confer in secret. Those who do wrong (say): “Is this (Muhammad) other than a man like you. Will you then submit to magic while you see (it).”
4. He (Muhammad) said: “My
Lord knows whatever is said in the heavens and the earth. And He is the All Hearer, the All Knower.” 5. But they say: “(The revelations are but) mixed up dreams. Rather, he has invented it. Rather, he is a poet. Let him then bring to us a sign like the ones that were sent to (the prophets) of old.” 6. Not a township which We destroyed believed before them. Will they then believe. 7. And We did not send before you (O Muhammad) except men, to whom We revealed (the message). So ask the people of the reminder if you do not know. 8. Nor did We give them bodies that would not eat food, nor were they immortals. 9. Then We fulfilled the promise to them. So we saved them and those whom We willed, and We destroyed those who transgressed beyond bounds. 10. Indeed, We have sent down to you the Book (the Quran), wherein is your reminder. Will you not then understand. 11. And how many a township have We destroyed that were wrong doers, and We raised up after them another people.
12. Then, when they perceived
Our punishment, behold, they (tried to) flee from it. 13. “Flee not, and return to that wherein you lived a luxurious life, and (to) your dwellings, perhaps you will be questioned.” 14. They said: “O woe to us, indeed we were wrongdoers.” 15. So that crying of theirs ceased not, until We made them as a field that is reaped, extinct. 16. And We did not create the heaven and the earth and what is between them for a play. 17. If We had intended to take a pastime, We could surely have taken it in Our presence, if We were going to do (that). 18. But We fling the truth against the falsehood, so it crushes it, then behold, it is vanished. And woe to you for that (lie) which you ascribe. 19. To Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those who are with Him (angels) are not too proud to worship Him, nor are they weary (of His worship). 20. They glorify His praises night and day, they do not slacken (to do so). 21. Or have they taken gods from the earth who resurrect (the dead). 22. If there were therein gods besides Allah, then they both (the heavens and earth) would have been ruined. So glorified be Allah, the Lord of the Throne, from what they ascribe (to Him). 23. He will not be questioned as to what He does, and they will be questioned. 24. Or have they taken besides Him gods. Say (O Muhammad): “Bring your proof. This (Quran) is the admonition for those with me and admonition (in scriptures) for those before me.” But most of them do not know the truth, so they have turned away. 25. And We did not send before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, “There is no god except Me, so worship Me.” 26. And they say: “The Beneficent has taken a son.” Be He glorified. But (whom they call sons) are honored slaves. 27. They do not precede Him in speech, and they act by His command. 28. He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot intercede except for him whom He is pleased with. And they, for fear of Him stand in awe. 29. And whoever of them should say: “Indeed I am a god besides Him.” Such a one We shall recompense with Hell. Thus do We recompense the wrongdoers. 30. Have those who disbelieved not seen that the heavens and the earth were joined together, then We parted them. And We made every living thing from water. Will they not then believe. 31. And We have placed in the earth firm mountains lest it should shake with them, and We have made therein broad highways to pass through, that they may be guided.
32. And We have made the
heaven a secure canopy, and yet they turn away from its signs. 33. And He it is who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Each in an orbit floating.
34. And We did not grant to any
human being immortality before you (O Muhammad), then if you die, would they live forever. 35. Every soul must taste death. And We test you by evil and by good as a trial. And unto Us you will be returned. 36. And when those who disbelieve see you (Muhammad), they take you not except for mockery (saying): “Is this he who talks about your gods.” While they disbelieve at the mention of the Beneficent. 37. Man is created of haste. I shall show you My signs, so ask Me not to hasten. 38. And they say: “When will this promise be (fulfilled), if you are truthful.” 39. If those who disbelieved only knew the time when they will not be able to drive off the fire from their faces, nor from their backs, nor will they be helped. 40. But it will come upon them unexpectedly and will perplex them, then they will not be able to repel it, neither will they be reprieved. 41. And indeed, messengers before you were ridiculed, so those who mocked them were surrounded by what they used to ridicule. 42. Say: “Who can protect you at the night and the day from the Beneficent.” But they are turning away from the remembrance of their Lord. 43. Or do they have gods who can guard them against Us. They have no power to help themselves, nor can they be protected from Us. 44. But We gave the luxuries of this life to these and their fathers until life prolonged for them. Then do they not see that We gradually reduce the land from its outlying borders. Is it then they who will overcome. 45. Say (O Muhammad): “I warn you only by the revelation.” But the deaf will not hear the call when they are warned. 46. And if a breath of your Lord's punishment were to touch them, they assuredly would say: “O woe to us, indeed we have been wrongdoers.” 47. And We shall set up balances of justice on the Day of Resurrection, so not a soul will be dealt with unjustly in anything. And if there be the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth. And sufficient are We as Reckoners. 48. And Surely, We gave Moses and Aaron the criterion and a light and a reminder for the righteous. 49. Those who fear their Lord in unseen, and they are afraid of the Hour. 50. And this is a blessed reminder (the Quran) which We have sent down. Will you then reject it. 51. And indeed, We gave Abraham his guidance before, and We were well acquainted with him. 52. When he said to his father and his people: “What are these images to which you are devoted.” 53. They said: “We found our fathers worshipping of them.” 54. He said: “Indeed you have been, you and your fathers, in manifest error.” 55. They said: “Have you brought us the truth, or are you of those who jest.” 56. He said: “But your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, He who created them. And of that I am among the witnesses.” 57. “And by Allah, I certainly have a plan (against) your idols after that you have gone away (and) turned your backs.” 58. So he reduced them into pieces, except the biggest of them, that they might turn to it. 59. They said: “Who has done this to our gods. Indeed he is of the wrongdoers.” 60. They said: “We heard a young man mentioning of them, who is called Abraham.” 61. They said: “Then bring him before the eyes of the people that they may testify.” 62. They said: “Is it you who has done this to our gods, O Abraham.” 63. He said: “But this has done it, biggest of them, this one. So ask them, if they can speak.” 64. So they turned to themselves and said: “Indeed you, yourselves are the wrongdoers.” 65. Then their minds tuned upside down, (and they said): “Indeed, you know well that they do not speak.” 66. He said: “Do you then worship besides Allah things that do not benefit you, nor harm you.” 67. “Fie upon you, and to what you worship besides Allah. Have you then no sense.” 68. They said: “Burn him and help your gods, if you will be doing.” 69. We (Allah) said: “O fire, be coolness and peace upon Abraham.” 70. And they intended for him a plan, so We made them the worst losers. 71. And We delivered him and Lot to the land which We had blessed for the nations. 72. And We bestowed upon him Isaac, and Jacob in addition. And each We made righteous. 73. And We made them leaders, guiding by Our command, and We inspired to them to do good deeds, and to establish prayers, and to give charity. And they were worshippers of Us. 74. And Lot, We gave him judgment and knowledge, and We saved him from the town which practised abominations. They were indeed a wicked people, exceedingly disobedient. 75. And We admitted him into Our mercy. Indeed, he was of the righteous. 76. And Noah, when he called upon (Us) before. So We responded to him. Then We saved him and his household from the great affliction. 77. And We helped him against the people who denied Our revelations. They were indeed an evil people, So We drowned them, all together. 78. And David and Solomon, when they judged regarding the field. When (at night) the sheep of certain people had pastured in it. And We were witnesses to their judgment. 79. And We gave understanding of it to Solomon, and to each (of them) We gave judgment and knowledge. And We subjected along with David the mountains to praise (Us), and (also) the birds. And We were the doers. 80. And We taught him the art of making the coats of armor for you to protect you in your fighting (against your enemy). Will you then be grateful. 81. And (We subjected) for Solomon the raging wind, which blew at his command towards the land which We had blessed. And of everything We are All Knower. 82. And of the devils were those who dived (into the sea) for him, and carried out other jobs besides that. And We were guardian over them. 83. And Job, when he called to his Lord, (saying): “Indeed adversity has afflicted me, and You are the Most Merciful of those who are merciful.” 84. So We responded to him, and We removed what was on him, of the adversity. And We gave him (back) his household and the like thereof along with them, a mercy from Us, and a reminder for the worshippers. 85. And Ishmael, and Idris, and Dhul Kifl. All were of the steadfast. 86. And We admitted them into Our mercy. Indeed, they were of the righteous. 87. And Dhun Nun (Jonah), when he went off in anger, then he thought that We had no power over him. Then he called out in the darkness, (saying): “There is no god except You. Be You glorified. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers. 88. So We responded to him, and We saved him from the anguish. And thus do We save the believers. 89. And Zachariah, when he called to his Lord: “My Lord, do not leave me alone (without heir), and You are the best of the inheritors.” 90. So We responded to him, and We bestowed upon him John, and We cured his wife for him. Indeed, they used to hasten in doing good deeds, and they used to call on Us with hope and fear. And they used to humble themselves before Us. 91. And she (Mary) who guarded her chastity, so We breathed into her through Our Spirit (angel), and We made her and her son a sign for peoples. 92. Indeed, this your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so worship Me. 93. And they have divided their affair (religion, into factions) among themselves. They shall all return to Us. 94. So whoever does of righteous deeds and he is a believer, then there will be no rejection of his effort. And indeed, We record (it) for him. 95. And there is a prohibition upon (people of) a town, which We have destroyed, that they shall not return. (to this world). 96. Until, when Gog and Magog are let loose, and they descend from every mound.
97. And the true promise shall
draw near. Then behold, the eyes of those who disbelieved will stare in horror. (They will say): “O woe to us, we were indeed heedless of this, but we were wrongdoers.” 98. Indeed, you (disbelievers) and that which you worship besides Allah are fuel for Hell. To it will you (surely) come. 99. If these (idols) had been gods, they would not have come there, and all will abide therein. 100. For them, therein, will be wailing. And they, therein, will not hear (anything else). 101. Indeed, those to whom kindness has gone forth before from Us, they will be far removed from it (Hell). 102. They will not hear the slightest sound of it (Hell). And they will be in that which their selves desire, abiding forever. 103. They will not be grieved by the greatest horror, and the angels will meet them, (saying): “This is your Day which you have been promised.” 104. The Day when We shall fold the heaven as a recorder folds up a written scroll. As We began the first creation, We shall repeat it. (That is) a promise (binding) upon Us. Indeed, We shall do it. 105. And indeed, We have written in the Scripture, after the Reminder, that the earth shall be inherited by My righteous slaves. 106. Indeed, in this (Quran) there is a plain message for a people who worship (Allah). 107. And We have not sent you (O Muhammad) except as a mercy for all the worlds. 108. Say: “It is only revealed to me that your god is only one God. Will you then surrender.” 109. So, if they turn away, then say: “I have announced to you all alike. And I know not, whether it is near or far that which you are promised.” 110. Indeed, He knows of that which is said loudly, and He knows what you conceal. 111. “And I know not, perhaps this may be a trial for you and an enjoyment for a fixed time.” 112. He (Muhammad) said: “My Lord, judge with truth. And our Lord is the Beneficent, whose help is sought against that which you ascribe.”
