بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful.
یُنَزِّلُ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةَ بِالرُّوْحِ مِنْ اَمْرِهٖ عَلٰى مَنْ یَّشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖۤ اَنْ اَنْذِرُوْۤا اَنَّهٗ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّاۤ اَنَا فَاتَّقُوْنِ(۲)
He sends the angels with revelation by His command, to any of His creatures as He please, (saying): "Warn that there is no god but I, so fear Me."
یُنْۢبِتُ لَكُمْ بِهِ الزَّرْعَ وَ الزَّیْتُوْنَ وَ النَّخِیْلَ وَ الْاَعْنَابَ وَ مِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرٰتِؕ-اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیَةً لِّقَوْمٍ یَّتَفَكَّرُوْنَ(۱۱)
With which He makes crops grow, and olives, dates and grapes and fruits of every kind for you. In this is a sign for those who think.
وَ سَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الَّیْلَ وَ النَّهَارَۙ-وَ الشَّمْسَ وَ الْقَمَرَؕ-وَ النُّجُوْمُ مُسَخَّرٰتٌۢ بِاَمْرِهٖؕ-اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یَّعْقِلُوْنَۙ(۱۲)
He harnessed the day and night for you, as also the sun, the moon and the stars, by His command. In this are signs for men who understand.
وَ هُوَ الَّذِیْ سَخَّرَ الْبَحْرَ لِتَاْكُلُوْا مِنْهُ لَحْمًا طَرِیًّا وَّ تَسْتَخْرِجُوْا مِنْهُ حِلْیَةً تَلْبَسُوْنَهَاۚ-وَ تَرَى الْفُلْكَ مَوَاخِرَ فِیْهِ وَ لِتَبْتَغُوْا مِنْ فَضْلِهٖ وَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ(۱۴)
It is He who has subdued the sea that you may eat fresh meat from it, and obtain ornaments to wear. You see the ships plough through it that you may seek of His bounties and, perhaps, be grateful.
لِیَحْمِلُوْۤا اَوْزَارَهُمْ كَامِلَةً یَّوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِۙ-وَ مِنْ اَوْزَارِ الَّذِیْنَ یُضِلُّوْنَهُمْ بِغَیْرِ عِلْمٍؕ-اَلَا سَآءَ مَا یَزِرُوْنَ۠(۲۵)
On the Day of Resurrection they will carry their own burden and some of the load of those they have led astray without any knowledge. Oh, how evil a burden they will carry!
قَدْ مَكَرَ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَاَتَى اللّٰهُ بُنْیَانَهُمْ مِّنَ الْقَوَاعِدِ فَخَرَّ عَلَیْهِمُ السَّقْفُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِمْ وَ اَتٰىهُمُ الْعَذَابُ مِنْ حَیْثُ لَا یَشْعُرُوْنَ(۲۶)
Those who have gone before them had also conspired; then God uprooted their structure from its foundation; the roof fell over them from above, and punishment came upon them from somewhere they did not suspect.
ثُمَّ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ یُخْزِیْهِمْ وَ یَقُوْلُ اَیْنَ شُرَكَآءِیَ الَّذِیْنَ كُنْتُمْ تُشَآقُّوْنَ فِیْهِمْؕ-قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ اِنَّ الْخِزْیَ الْیَوْمَ وَ السُّوْٓءَ عَلَى الْكٰفِرِیْنَۙ(۲۷)
On the Day of Resurrection He will disgrace them and ask: "Where are My compeers for whom you contended?" Those endowed with knowledge will say: "Shame and evil surely are for unbelievers today."
الَّذِیْنَ تَتَوَفّٰىهُمُ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةُ ظَالِمِیْۤ اَنْفُسِهِمْ۪-فَاَلْقَوُا السَّلَمَ مَا كُنَّا نَعْمَلُ مِنْ سُوْٓءٍؕ-بَلٰۤى اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلِیْمٌۢ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ(۲۸)
They whose souls are drawn out by the angels while they are sinning, shall offer submission: "We did no evil." But God knows well what you did.
وَ قِیْلَ لِلَّذِیْنَ اتَّقَوْا مَا ذَاۤ اَنْزَلَ رَبُّكُمْؕ-قَالُوْا خَیْرًاؕ-لِلَّذِیْنَ اَحْسَنُوْا فِیْ هٰذِهِ الدُّنْیَا حَسَنَةٌؕ-وَ لَدَارُ الْاٰخِرَةِ خَیْرٌؕ-وَ لَنِعْمَ دَارُ الْمُتَّقِیْنَۙ(۳۰)
When those who took heed for themselves would be asked: "What did your Lord send down?" They will answer: "The best." For those who do good there is good in the world, but certainly the abode of the next is better. How excellent the home of the virtuous!
هَلْ یَنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ تَاْتِیَهُمُ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةُ اَوْ یَاْتِیَ اَمْرُ رَبِّكَؕ-كَذٰلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْؕ-وَ مَا ظَلَمَهُمُ اللّٰهُ وَ لٰكِنْ كَانُوْۤا اَنْفُسَهُمْ یَظْلِمُوْنَ(۳۳)
What! Do the (unbelievers) expect that the angels should descend, or the sentence of your Lord come to pass? So had the people done before them; yet God did not wrong them, they wronged themselves.
وَ قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ اَشْرَكُوْا لَوْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ مَا عَبَدْنَا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ مِنْ شَیْءٍ نَّحْنُ وَ لَاۤ اٰبَآؤُنَا وَ لَا حَرَّمْنَا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ مِنْ شَیْءٍؕ-كَذٰلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْۚ-فَهَلْ عَلَى الرُّسُلِ اِلَّا الْبَلٰغُ الْمُبِیْنُ(۳۵)
The idolaters say: "If God had willed we would not have worshipped anything apart from Him, nor would our fathers have done, nor would we have forbidden any thing without His (leave)." So had the people done before them. Therefore it is binding on the prophets to convey the message in clearest terms.
وَ لَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِیْ كُلِّ اُمَّةٍ رَّسُوْلًا اَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَ اجْتَنِبُوا الطَّاغُوْتَۚ-فَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ هَدَى اللّٰهُ وَ مِنْهُمْ مَّنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَیْهِ الضَّلٰلَةُؕ-فَسِیْرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوْا كَیْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِیْنَ(۳۶)
To every community We have sent an apostle. (saying:) "Worship God, and keep away from all other deities." Thus some of them were guided by God, and ruin was justified on some. Travel over the earth and see what befell those who accused (the apostles) of lies.
وَ اَقْسَمُوْا بِاللّٰهِ جَهْدَ اَیْمَانِهِمْۙ-لَا یَبْعَثُ اللّٰهُ مَنْ یَّمُوْتُؕ-بَلٰى وَعْدًا عَلَیْهِ حَقًّا وَّ لٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَۙ(۳۸)
They swear emphatically in the name of God that God will not raise the dead. On the contrary, it is a promise incumbent on Him, though most men do not understand,
