12. Yusuf

12:53

وَمَاۤ اُبَرِّئُ نَفْسِیْ ۚ اِنَّ النَّفْسَ لَاَمَّارَةٌ بِالسُّوْٓءِ اِلَّا مَا رَحِمَ رَبِّیْ ؕ اِنَّ رَبِّیْ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِیْمٌ

And I do not absolve my inner self of blame. Surely, man’s inner self often incites to evil, unless my Lord shows mercy. Certainly, my Lord is the Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.”
12:54

وَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ ائْتُوْنِیْ بِهٖۤ اَسْتَخْلِصْهُ لِنَفْسِیْ ۚ فَلَمَّا كَلَّمَهٗ قَالَ اِنَّكَ الْیَوْمَ لَدَیْنَا مَكِیْنٌ اَمِیْنٌ

The king said, “Bring him to me, and I shall employ him purely for myself.” So, when he (the king) talked to him, he said (to Yūsuf), “Today you are with us well-placed, fully trusted.”
12:55

قَالَ اجْعَلْنِیْ عَلٰی خَزَآىِٕنِ الْاَرْضِ ۚ اِنِّیْ حَفِیْظٌ عَلِیْمٌ

He said, “Appoint me to (supervise) the treasures of the land. I am indeed a knowledgeable keeper.”
12:56

وَكَذٰلِكَ مَكَّنَّا لِیُوْسُفَ فِی الْاَرْضِ ۚ یَتَبَوَّاُ مِنْهَا حَیْثُ یَشَآءُ ؕ نُصِیْبُ بِرَحْمَتِنَا مَنْ نَّشَآءُ وَلَا نُضِیْعُ اَجْرَ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ

And thus We gave Yūsuf power in the land. He could settle in it wherever he wished. We extend Our mercy to whomsoever We will, and We do not let the reward of the righteous people to go to waste.
12:57

وَلَاَجْرُ الْاٰخِرَةِ خَیْرٌ لِّلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَكَانُوْا یَتَّقُوْنَ

And the reward of the Hereafter is surely better for those who believe and constantly observe taqwā.
12:58

وَجَآءَ اِخْوَةُ یُوْسُفَ فَدَخَلُوْا عَلَیْهِ فَعَرَفَهُمْ وَهُمْ لَهٗ مُنْكِرُوْنَ

And came the brothers of Yūsuf and appeared before him. He recognized them, while they did not recognize him.
12:59

وَلَمَّا جَهَّزَهُمْ بِجَهَازِهِمْ قَالَ ائْتُوْنِیْ بِاَخٍ لَّكُمْ مِّنْ اَبِیْكُمْ ۚ اَلَا تَرَوْنَ اَنِّیْۤ اُوْفِی الْكَیْلَ وَاَنَا خَیْرُ الْمُنْزِلِیْنَ

When he equipped them with their provisions, he said, “Bring to me your other brother from your father’s side. Do you not see that I give full measure, and I extend the best hospitality?
12:60

فَاِنْ لَّمْ تَاْتُوْنِیْ بِهٖ فَلَا كَیْلَ لَكُمْ عِنْدِیْ وَلَا تَقْرَبُوْنِ

Still, if you do not bring him to me, then you deserve no (further) measure from me, nor shall you approach me any more.”
12:61

قَالُوْا سَنُرَاوِدُ عَنْهُ اَبَاهُ وَاِنَّا لَفٰعِلُوْنَ

They said, “We shall persuade his father about him and we will certainly do it.”
12:62

وَقَالَ لِفِتْیٰنِهِ اجْعَلُوْا بِضَاعَتَهُمْ فِیْ رِحَالِهِمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَعْرِفُوْنَهَاۤ اِذَا انْقَلَبُوْۤا اِلٰۤی اَهْلِهِمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَرْجِعُوْنَ

And he (Yūsuf) said to his boys, “Put their goods in their camel-packs. Perhaps they will recognize it when they go back to their family; perhaps they will come again.”
12:63

فَلَمَّا رَجَعُوْۤا اِلٰۤی اَبِیْهِمْ قَالُوْا یٰۤاَبَانَا مُنِعَ مِنَّا الْكَیْلُ فَاَرْسِلْ مَعَنَاۤ اَخَانَا نَكْتَلْ وَاِنَّا لَهٗ لَحٰفِظُوْنَ

So, when they returned to their father, they said, “Father, the (required) measure (of grain) has been withheld from us, therefore, send our brother with us, so that we may receive our full measure. And, of course, we are his guards.”
12:64

قَالَ هَلْ اٰمَنُكُمْ عَلَیْهِ اِلَّا كَمَاۤ اَمِنْتُكُمْ عَلٰۤی اَخِیْهِ مِنْ قَبْلُ ؕ فَاللّٰهُ خَیْرٌ حٰفِظًا ۪ وَّهُوَ اَرْحَمُ الرّٰحِمِیْنَ

He said, “Shall I trust you about him as I trusted you earlier about his brother? Well, Allah is the best guardian, and He is the Most-Merciful of all the merciful.”
12:65

وَلَمَّا فَتَحُوْا مَتَاعَهُمْ وَجَدُوْا بِضَاعَتَهُمْ رُدَّتْ اِلَیْهِمْ ؕ قَالُوْا یٰۤاَبَانَا مَا نَبْغِیْ ؕ هٰذِهٖ بِضَاعَتُنَا رُدَّتْ اِلَیْنَا ۚ وَنَمِیْرُ اَهْلَنَا وَنَحْفَظُ اَخَانَا وَنَزْدَادُ كَیْلَ بَعِیْرٍ ؕ ذٰلِكَ كَیْلٌ یَّسِیْرٌ

When they opened their baggage, they found their goods given back to them. They said, “Our father, what else should we want? Here is our goods given back to us, and we shall bring food to our family, protect our brother and add the measure of one camel more. That is an easy measure.”
12:66

قَالَ لَنْ اُرْسِلَهٗ مَعَكُمْ حَتّٰی تُؤْتُوْنِ مَوْثِقًا مِّنَ اللّٰهِ لَتَاْتُنَّنِیْ بِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ یُّحَاطَ بِكُمْ ۚ فَلَمَّاۤ اٰتَوْهُ مَوْثِقَهُمْ قَالَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰی مَا نَقُوْلُ وَكِیْلٌ

He said, “I shall never send him with you until you give me a pledge in the name of Allah that you will definitely bring him back to me, unless you are overpowered (by circumstances).” So, when they gave him their pledge, he said, “Allah is watchful over what we say.”
12:67

وَقَالَ یٰبَنِیَّ لَا تَدْخُلُوْا مِنْ بَابٍ وَّاحِدٍ وَّادْخُلُوْا مِنْ اَبْوَابٍ مُّتَفَرِّقَةٍ ؕ وَمَاۤ اُغْنِیْ عَنْكُمْ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ شَیْءٍ ؕ اِنِ الْحُكْمُ اِلَّا لِلّٰهِ ؕ عَلَیْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ ۚ وَعَلَیْهِ فَلْیَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُوْنَ

And he said, “O my sons, do not enter (the city) all of you from the same gate, rather, enter from different gates. And I cannot help you in any way against (the will of) Allah. Sovereignty belongs to none but Allah. In Him I place my trust, and all those who trust should trust in Him alone.”
12:68

وَلَمَّا دَخَلُوْا مِنْ حَیْثُ اَمَرَهُمْ اَبُوْهُمْ ؕ مَا كَانَ یُغْنِیْ عَنْهُمْ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ شَیْءٍ اِلَّا حَاجَةً فِیْ نَفْسِ یَعْقُوْبَ قَضٰىهَا ؕ وَاِنَّهٗ لَذُوْ عِلْمٍ لِّمَا عَلَّمْنٰهُ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

And (recall) when they entered (the city) in the manner their father had advised them. He could not help them in any way against (the will of) Allah, but it was just an urge in the heart of Ya‘qūb which he satisfied; he was a man of knowledge, because We had taught him, but most of the people do not know.
12:69

وَلَمَّا دَخَلُوْا عَلٰی یُوْسُفَ اٰوٰۤی اِلَیْهِ اَخَاهُ قَالَ اِنِّیْۤ اَنَا اَخُوْكَ فَلَا تَبْتَىِٕسْ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَعْمَلُوْنَ

And when they came to Yūsuf, he lodged his brother (Binyamin) with himself. He said, “Look, I am your brother! So do not grieve for what they have been doing.”
12:70

فَلَمَّا جَهَّزَهُمْ بِجَهَازِهِمْ جَعَلَ السِّقَایَةَ فِیْ رَحْلِ اَخِیْهِ ثُمَّ اَذَّنَ مُؤَذِّنٌ اَیَّتُهَا الْعِیْرُ اِنَّكُمْ لَسٰرِقُوْنَ

Later, when he equipped them with their provisions, he placed the bowl in the camel-pack of his brother. Then, an announcer shouted out, “O people of the caravan, you are thieves.”
12:71

قَالُوْا وَاَقْبَلُوْا عَلَیْهِمْ مَّاذَا تَفْقِدُوْنَ

Turning towards them, they said, “What are you missing?”
12:72

قَالُوْا نَفْقِدُ صُوَاعَ الْمَلِكِ وَلِمَنْ جَآءَ بِهٖ حِمْلُ بَعِیْرٍ وَّاَنَا بِهٖ زَعِیْمٌ

They said, “We are missing the measuring-bowl of the king, and whoever brings it back shall deserve a camel-load, and I stand surety for it.”
12:73

قَالُوْا تَاللّٰهِ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ مَّا جِئْنَا لِنُفْسِدَ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَمَا كُنَّا سٰرِقِیْنَ

They said, “We swear by Allah, you know, we did not come to make mischief in the land, nor have we ever been thieves.”
12:74

قَالُوْا فَمَا جَزَآؤُهٗۤ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ كٰذِبِیْنَ

They said, “What is the punishment, if you are liars?”
12:75

قَالُوْا جَزَآؤُهٗ مَنْ وُّجِدَ فِیْ رَحْلِهٖ فَهُوَ جَزَآؤُهٗ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِی الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

They said, “Its punishment? The one in whose saddlebag it is found shall himself be the punishment. This is how we punish the wrongdoers.”
12:76

فَبَدَاَ بِاَوْعِیَتِهِمْ قَبْلَ وِعَآءِ اَخِیْهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَخْرَجَهَا مِنْ وِّعَآءِ اَخِیْهِ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ كِدْنَا لِیُوْسُفَ ؕ مَا كَانَ لِیَاْخُذَ اَخَاهُ فِیْ دِیْنِ الْمَلِكِ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ یَّشَآءَ اللّٰهُ ؕ نَرْفَعُ دَرَجٰتٍ مَّنْ نَّشَآءُ ؕ وَفَوْقَ كُلِّ ذِیْ عِلْمٍ عَلِیْمٌ

So, he started with their bags before (searching) the bag of his brother, then, recovered it from the bag of his brother.This is how We planned for Yūsuf. He had no right to take his brother according to the law of the king, unless Allah so willed. We elevate in ranks whomsoever We will. Above every man of knowledge, there is someone more knowledgeable.
12:77

قَالُوْۤا اِنْ یَّسْرِقْ فَقَدْ سَرَقَ اَخٌ لَّهٗ مِنْ قَبْلُ ۚ فَاَسَرَّهَا یُوْسُفُ فِیْ نَفْسِهٖ وَلَمْ یُبْدِهَا لَهُمْ ۚ قَالَ اَنْتُمْ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا ۚ وَاللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَصِفُوْنَ

They said, “If he commits theft, (there is nothing surprising, because) his other brother had committed theft earlier.” Yūsuf kept it (his reaction) to himself and did not reveal it to them. He said (in his heart), “You are even worse in position. Allah knows best of what you allege.”
12:78

قَالُوْا یٰۤاَیُّهَا الْعَزِیْزُ اِنَّ لَهٗۤ اَبًا شَیْخًا كَبِیْرًا فَخُذْ اَحَدَنَا مَكَانَهٗ ۚ اِنَّا نَرٰىكَ مِنَ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ

They said, “O ‘Azīz, he has a father, a very old man. So, take one of us in his place. We see you are a generous man.”
12:79

قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللّٰهِ اَنْ نَّاْخُذَ اِلَّا مَنْ وَّجَدْنَا مَتَاعَنَا عِنْدَهٗۤ ۙ اِنَّاۤ اِذًا لَّظٰلِمُوْنَ

He said, “We seek Allah’s refuge from keeping anyone other than him with whom we have found our thing, otherwise we shall be unjust.”
12:80

فَلَمَّا اسْتَیْـَٔسُوْا مِنْهُ خَلَصُوْا نَجِیًّا ؕ قَالَ كَبِیْرُهُمْ اَلَمْ تَعْلَمُوْۤا اَنَّ اَبَاكُمْ قَدْ اَخَذَ عَلَیْكُمْ مَّوْثِقًا مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَمِنْ قَبْلُ مَا فَرَّطْتُّمْ فِیْ یُوْسُفَ ۚ فَلَنْ اَبْرَحَ الْاَرْضَ حَتّٰی یَاْذَنَ لِیْۤ اَبِیْۤ اَوْ یَحْكُمَ اللّٰهُ لِیْ ۚ وَهُوَ خَیْرُ الْحٰكِمِیْنَ

So when they lost hope in him, they went aside for consultation. The oldest of them said, “Do you not know that your father has taken pledge from you in the name of Allah, while you had defaulted earlier in the case of Yūsuf. So, I shall never leave this land unless my father permits me or Allah decides about me. He is the best of all judges.
12:81

اِرْجِعُوْۤا اِلٰۤی اَبِیْكُمْ فَقُوْلُوْا یٰۤاَبَانَاۤ اِنَّ ابْنَكَ سَرَقَ ۚ وَمَا شَهِدْنَاۤ اِلَّا بِمَا عَلِمْنَا وَمَا كُنَّا لِلْغَیْبِ حٰفِظِیْنَ

Go back to your father and say, ‘Our father, your son has committed theft, and we do not testify except what we know, and we could not guard against the unseen.
12:82

وَسْـَٔلِ الْقَرْیَةَ الَّتِیْ كُنَّا فِیْهَا وَالْعِیْرَ الَّتِیْۤ اَقْبَلْنَا فِیْهَا ؕ وَاِنَّا لَصٰدِقُوْنَ

Ask (the people of) the town in which we have been, and the caravan with which we have come, and undoubtedly we are truthful.”
12:83

قَالَ بَلْ سَوَّلَتْ لَكُمْ اَنْفُسُكُمْ اَمْرًا ؕ فَصَبْرٌ جَمِیْلٌ ؕ عَسَی اللّٰهُ اَنْ یَّاْتِیَنِیْ بِهِمْ جَمِیْعًا ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الْعَلِیْمُ الْحَكِیْمُ

He (Ya‘qūb) said, “Rather, your inner desires have seduced you to something. So, patience is best. Hopefully, Allah may bring them all together. Surely, He is the All-Knowing, All-Wise.”
12:84

وَتَوَلّٰی عَنْهُمْ وَقَالَ یٰۤاَسَفٰی عَلٰی یُوْسُفَ وَابْیَضَّتْ عَیْنٰهُ مِنَ الْحُزْنِ فَهُوَ كَظِیْمٌ

He turned away from them and said, “How sad I am about Yūsuf!” and his eyes turned white with sorrow and he was suppressing (his anger and grief).
12:85

قَالُوْا تَاللّٰهِ تَفْتَؤُا تَذْكُرُ یُوْسُفَ حَتّٰی تَكُوْنَ حَرَضًا اَوْ تَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْهٰلِكِیْنَ

They said, “By God, you will not stop remembering Yūsuf until you collapse or perish.”
12:86

قَالَ اِنَّمَاۤ اَشْكُوْا بَثِّیْ وَحُزْنِیْۤ اِلَی اللّٰهِ وَاَعْلَمُ مِنَ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ

He said, “I do not complain of my anguish and sorrow to anyone but Allah, and I know from Allah what you do not know.
12:87

یٰبَنِیَّ اذْهَبُوْا فَتَحَسَّسُوْا مِنْ یُّوْسُفَ وَاَخِیْهِ وَلَا تَایْـَٔسُوْا مِنْ رَّوْحِ اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّهٗ لَا یَایْـَٔسُ مِنْ رَّوْحِ اللّٰهِ اِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الْكٰفِرُوْنَ

O my sons, go and search for Yūsuf and his brother, and do not lose hope in the mercy of Allah. In fact, only the infidels lose hope in Allah’s mercy.”
12:88

فَلَمَّا دَخَلُوْا عَلَیْهِ قَالُوْا یٰۤاَیُّهَا الْعَزِیْزُ مَسَّنَا وَاَهْلَنَا الضُّرُّ وَجِئْنَا بِبِضَاعَةٍ مُّزْجٰىةٍ فَاَوْفِ لَنَا الْكَیْلَ وَتَصَدَّقْ عَلَیْنَا ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَجْزِی الْمُتَصَدِّقِیْنَ

So, when they came to him (Yūsuf), they said, “‘Azīz, we and our family are struck by distress, and we have brought some goods of very little worth. So, give us the full measure (of grain) and be charitable to us. Surely, Allah rewards the charitable.”
12:89

قَالَ هَلْ عَلِمْتُمْ مَّا فَعَلْتُمْ بِیُوْسُفَ وَاَخِیْهِ اِذْ اَنْتُمْ جٰهِلُوْنَ

He said, “Do you know what you did to Yūsuf and his brother when you were ignorant?”
12:90

قَالُوْۤا ءَاِنَّكَ لَاَنْتَ یُوْسُفُ ؕ قَالَ اَنَا یُوْسُفُ وَهٰذَاۤ اَخِیْ ؗ قَدْ مَنَّ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْنَا ؕ اِنَّهٗ مَنْ یَّتَّقِ وَیَصْبِرْ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُضِیْعُ اَجْرَ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ

They said, “Is it that you are, in fact, Yūsuf?” He said, “I am Yūsuf, and this is my brother. Allah has been very kind to us. Surely, whoever fears Allah and observes patience, Allah does not let the reward of such good people to go to waste.”
12:91

قَالُوْا تَاللّٰهِ لَقَدْ اٰثَرَكَ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْنَا وَاِنْ كُنَّا لَخٰطِـِٕیْنَ

They said, “We swear by Allah, indeed Allah has given to you preference over us, and we were guilty in fact.”
12:92

قَالَ لَا تَثْرِیْبَ عَلَیْكُمُ الْیَوْمَ ؕ یَغْفِرُ اللّٰهُ لَكُمْ ؗ وَهُوَ اَرْحَمُ الرّٰحِمِیْنَ

He said, “No reproach upon you today! May Allah forgive you, and He is the Most- Merciful of all the merciful.
12:93

اِذْهَبُوْا بِقَمِیْصِیْ هٰذَا فَاَلْقُوْهُ عَلٰی وَجْهِ اَبِیْ یَاْتِ بَصِیْرًا ۚ وَاْتُوْنِیْ بِاَهْلِكُمْ اَجْمَعِیْنَ

Go with this shirt of mine, and put it over the face of my father, and he will turn into a sighted man. And bring to me all your family.”
12:94

وَلَمَّا فَصَلَتِ الْعِیْرُ قَالَ اَبُوْهُمْ اِنِّیْ لَاَجِدُ رِیْحَ یُوْسُفَ لَوْلَاۤ اَنْ تُفَنِّدُوْنِ

And when the caravan set out (from Egypt), their father (Ya‘qūb) said (in Canaan), “I sense the fragrance of Yūsuf, if you do not take me to be senile.”
12:95

قَالُوْا تَاللّٰهِ اِنَّكَ لَفِیْ ضَلٰلِكَ الْقَدِیْمِ

They said, “By God, you are still in your old fallacy!”
12:96

فَلَمَّاۤ اَنْ جَآءَ الْبَشِیْرُ اَلْقٰىهُ عَلٰی وَجْهِهٖ فَارْتَدَّ بَصِیْرًا ۚ قَالَ اَلَمْ اَقُلْ لَّكُمْ ۙۚ اِنِّیْۤ اَعْلَمُ مِنَ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ

So, when came the man with good news, he put it (the shirt) on his face, and he turned into a sighted man. He (Ya‘qūb) said, “Did I not tell you that I know from Allah what you do not know?”
12:97

قَالُوْا یٰۤاَبَانَا اسْتَغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوْبَنَاۤ اِنَّا كُنَّا خٰطِـِٕیْنَ

They said, “Our father, pray to Allah to forgive us our sins. Surely, we have been guilty.”
12:98

قَالَ سَوْفَ اَسْتَغْفِرُ لَكُمْ رَبِّیْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الْغَفُوْرُ الرَّحِیْمُ

He said, “I shall pray to my Lord to forgive you. Surely, He is the Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.”
12:99

فَلَمَّا دَخَلُوْا عَلٰی یُوْسُفَ اٰوٰۤی اِلَیْهِ اَبَوَیْهِ وَقَالَ ادْخُلُوْا مِصْرَ اِنْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ اٰمِنِیْنَ

Later, when they came to Yūsuf, he placed his parents near himself and said, “Enter Egypt, God willing, in peace.”
12:100

وَرَفَعَ اَبَوَیْهِ عَلَی الْعَرْشِ وَخَرُّوْا لَهٗ سُجَّدًا ۚ وَقَالَ یٰۤاَبَتِ هٰذَا تَاْوِیْلُ رُءْیَایَ مِنْ قَبْلُ ؗ قَدْ جَعَلَهَا رَبِّیْ حَقًّا ؕ وَقَدْ اَحْسَنَ بِیْۤ اِذْ اَخْرَجَنِیْ مِنَ السِّجْنِ وَجَآءَ بِكُمْ مِّنَ الْبَدْوِ مِنْ بَعْدِ اَنْ نَّزَغَ الشَّیْطٰنُ بَیْنِیْ وَبَیْنَ اِخْوَتِیْ ؕ اِنَّ رَبِّیْ لَطِیْفٌ لِّمَا یَشَآءُ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الْعَلِیْمُ الْحَكِیْمُ

And he raised his parents up on the throne, and they all fell before him in prostration. He said, “My father, here is the fulfillment of my early dream. My Lord has made it come true. He favored me when he released me from the prison, and brought you from the countryside after Satan had caused a rift between me and my brothers. Surely, my Lord does what He wills in a subtle way. Surely, He is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.”
12:101

رَبِّ قَدْ اٰتَیْتَنِیْ مِنَ الْمُلْكِ وَعَلَّمْتَنِیْ مِنْ تَاْوِیْلِ الْاَحَادِیْثِ ۚ فَاطِرَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ۫ اَنْتَ وَلِیّٖ فِی الدُّنْیَا وَالْاٰخِرَةِ ۚ تَوَفَّنِیْ مُسْلِمًا وَّاَلْحِقْنِیْ بِالصّٰلِحِیْنَ

“My Lord, You have given me power to rule and the knowledge of interpreting events. O Creator of the heavens and the Earth, You are my guardian in this world and the Hereafter. Make me die a Muslim and make me join the righteous.”
12:102

ذٰلِكَ مِنْ اَنْۢبَآءِ الْغَیْبِ نُوْحِیْهِ اِلَیْكَ ۚ وَمَا كُنْتَ لَدَیْهِمْ اِذْ اَجْمَعُوْۤا اَمْرَهُمْ وَهُمْ یَمْكُرُوْنَ

That is a part of the reports of the unseen We reveal to you (O Prophet). You were not with them when they determined their object, and when they were planning devices.
12:103

وَمَاۤ اَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ وَلَوْ حَرَصْتَ بِمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

Most of the people are not going to believe despite your strong desire for it.
12:104

وَمَا تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ عَلَیْهِ مِنْ اَجْرٍ ؕ اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِّلْعٰلَمِیْنَ

And you do not demand from them any reward against it. It is nothing but a reminder for all the (people of the) worlds.
12:105

وَكَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ اٰیَةٍ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ یَمُرُّوْنَ عَلَیْهَا وَهُمْ عَنْهَا مُعْرِضُوْنَ

How many a sign there are in the heavens and the Earth, which they pass by and they are heedless to them;
12:106

وَمَا یُؤْمِنُ اَكْثَرُهُمْ بِاللّٰهِ اِلَّا وَهُمْ مُّشْرِكُوْنَ

and most of them do not believe in Allah without associating partners with Him in His divinity.
12:107

اَفَاَمِنُوْۤا اَنْ تَاْتِیَهُمْ غَاشِیَةٌ مِّنْ عَذَابِ اللّٰهِ اَوْ تَاْتِیَهُمُ السَّاعَةُ بَغْتَةً وَّهُمْ لَا یَشْعُرُوْنَ

Do they feel themselves secure from the visit of Allah’s encircling punishment or from the sudden arrival of the Hour, while they are not conscious of it?
12:108

قُلْ هٰذِهٖ سَبِیْلِیْۤ اَدْعُوْۤا اِلَی اللّٰهِ ؔ۫ عَلٰی بَصِیْرَةٍ اَنَا وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَنِیْ ؕ وَسُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ وَمَاۤ اَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِیْنَ

Say, “This is my way. I call (people) to Allah with full perception, both I and my followers. Pure is Allah; and I am not among those who associate partners with Allah.”
12:109

وَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ اِلَّا رِجَالًا نُّوْحِیْۤ اِلَیْهِمْ مِّنْ اَهْلِ الْقُرٰی ؕ اَفَلَمْ یَسِیْرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ فَیَنْظُرُوْا كَیْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ ؕ وَلَدَارُ الْاٰخِرَةِ خَیْرٌ لِّلَّذِیْنَ اتَّقَوْا ؕ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ

We did not send before you (messengers) other than men from the people of the towns whom We inspired with revelation. Have they not traveled in the land where they could have seen how was the fate of those before them? And surely the abode of the Hereafter is much better for those who fear Allah. Would you, then, still not understand?
12:110

حَتّٰۤی اِذَا اسْتَیْـَٔسَ الرُّسُلُ وَظَنُّوْۤا اَنَّهُمْ قَدْ كُذِبُوْا جَآءَهُمْ نَصْرُنَا ۙ فَنُجِّیَ مَنْ نَّشَآءُ ؕ وَلَا یُرَدُّ بَاْسُنَا عَنِ الْقَوْمِ الْمُجْرِمِیْنَ

(Punishment was often delayed) until when the messengers were in despair and thought that they were wrong in their estimation, Our help came to them, then saved were those whom We willed. And Our punishment is not averted from the guilty.
12:111

لَقَدْ كَانَ فِیْ قَصَصِهِمْ عِبْرَةٌ لِّاُولِی الْاَلْبَابِ ؕ مَا كَانَ حَدِیْثًا یُّفْتَرٰی وَلٰكِنْ تَصْدِیْقَ الَّذِیْ بَیْنَ یَدَیْهِ وَتَفْصِیْلَ كُلِّ شَیْءٍ وَّهُدًی وَّرَحْمَةً لِّقَوْمٍ یُّؤْمِنُوْنَ

Surely, in the narratives of these, there is a lesson for the people of understanding. It is not an invented story, rather, a confirmation of what has been before it, and an elaboration of everything, and guidance and mercy for a people who believe.

13. Ar-Ra'd

13:1

الٓمّٓرٰ ۫ تِلْكَ اٰیٰتُ الْكِتٰبِ ؕ وَالَّذِیْۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْكَ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ الْحَقُّ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ

Alif , Lām , Mīm , Rā. These are the verses of the Book. What has been sent down to you from your Lord is true, but most of the people do not believe.
13:2

اَللّٰهُ الَّذِیْ رَفَعَ السَّمٰوٰتِ بِغَیْرِ عَمَدٍ تَرَوْنَهَا ثُمَّ اسْتَوٰی عَلَی الْعَرْشِ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ ؕ كُلٌّ یَّجْرِیْ لِاَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّی ؕ یُدَبِّرُ الْاَمْرَ یُفَصِّلُ الْاٰیٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ بِلِقَآءِ رَبِّكُمْ تُوْقِنُوْنَ

Allah is the One who raised the heavens without pillars that you can see them. Then He positioned Himself on the Throne and subjugated the sun and the moon, each one of them running to an appointed time. He manages all matters, elaborating the signs, so that you may be sure of meeting your Lord.
13:3

وَهُوَ الَّذِیْ مَدَّ الْاَرْضَ وَجَعَلَ فِیْهَا رَوَاسِیَ وَاَنْهٰرًا ؕ وَمِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرٰتِ جَعَلَ فِیْهَا زَوْجَیْنِ اثْنَیْنِ یُغْشِی الَّیْلَ النَّهَارَ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یَّتَفَكَّرُوْنَ

He is the One who spread out the earth and made mountains and rivers on it, and created in it the pairs of two from all the fruits. He makes the night cover the day. Surely, in that there are signs for a people who think.
13:4

وَفِی الْاَرْضِ قِطَعٌ مُّتَجٰوِرٰتٌ وَّجَنّٰتٌ مِّنْ اَعْنَابٍ وَّزَرْعٌ وَّنَخِیْلٌ صِنْوَانٌ وَّغَیْرُ صِنْوَانٍ یُّسْقٰی بِمَآءٍ وَّاحِدٍ ۫ وَنُفَضِّلُ بَعْضَهَا عَلٰی بَعْضٍ فِی الْاُكُلِ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یَّعْقِلُوْنَ

And in the earth there are tracts of land neighboring each other, and gardens of grapes, and farms and date palms, some having twin trunks and some having a single one. (Although) all of them are irrigated with the same water, We make some of them better than others in taste. Surely, in that there are signs for a people who understand.
13:5

وَاِنْ تَعْجَبْ فَعَجَبٌ قَوْلُهُمْ ءَاِذَا كُنَّا تُرٰبًا ءَاِنَّا لَفِیْ خَلْقٍ جَدِیْدٍ ؕ۬ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِرَبِّهِمْ ۚ وَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ الْاَغْلٰلُ فِیْۤ اَعْنَاقِهِمْ ۚ وَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ اَصْحٰبُ النَّارِ ۚ هُمْ فِیْهَا خٰلِدُوْنَ

If you wonder, then wondrous indeed is their saying, “Is it that, once we are dust, we are to be created anew?” They are those who have disbelieved in their Lord, and they are those who (shall) have shackles around their necks, and they are the people of the Fire. They shall remain there forever.
13:6

وَیَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَكَ بِالسَّیِّئَةِ قَبْلَ الْحَسَنَةِ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمُ الْمَثُلٰتُ ؕ وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُوْ مَغْفِرَةٍ لِّلنَّاسِ عَلٰی ظُلْمِهِمْ ۚ وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَشَدِیْدُ الْعِقَابِ

They ask for evil to come sooner than good, while punishments have really come to pass (against people) earlier to them. And surely, your Lord is the lord of forgiveness for the people against their wrongdoing, and surely, your Lord is severe in punishing.
13:7

وَیَقُوْلُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَوْلَاۤ اُنْزِلَ عَلَیْهِ اٰیَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ ؕ اِنَّمَاۤ اَنْتَ مُنْذِرٌ وَّلِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ هَادٍ

The disbelievers say, “Why is it that no sign has been sent down to him from his Lord?” You are but a warner; and for every people there is a guide.
13:8

اَللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ مَا تَحْمِلُ كُلُّ اُ وَمَا تَغِیْضُ الْاَرْحَامُ وَمَا تَزْدَادُ ؕ وَكُلُّ شَیْءٍ عِنْدَهٗ بِمِقْدَارٍ

Allah knows what every female carries and what the wombs decrease or increase. Everything has measure with Him
13:9

عٰلِمُ الْغَیْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ الْكَبِیْرُ الْمُتَعَالِ

He is the Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is the Great, the High.
13:10

سَوَآءٌ مِّنْكُمْ مَّنْ اَسَرَّ الْقَوْلَ وَمَنْ جَهَرَ بِهٖ وَمَنْ هُوَ مُسْتَخْفٍ بِالَّیْلِ وَسَارِبٌ بِالنَّهَارِ

Alike (for Him) is he, from among you, who speaks quietly and he who speaks aloud, and he who hides in the night and he who walks out in the day.
13:11

لَهٗ مُعَقِّبٰتٌ مِّنْ بَیْنِ یَدَیْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهٖ یَحْفَظُوْنَهٗ مِنْ اَمْرِ اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُغَیِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتّٰی یُغَیِّرُوْا مَا بِاَنْفُسِهِمْ ؕ وَاِذَاۤ اَرَادَ اللّٰهُ بِقَوْمٍ سُوْٓءًا فَلَا مَرَدَّ لَهٗ ۚ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِهٖ مِنْ وَّالٍ

For every one (from among you) there are angels replacing one another, in front of him and behind him, who guard him under the command of Allah. Surely, Allah does not change the condition of a people unless they change themselves. When Allah intends evil for a people, there is no way to turn it back, and for them there is no patron other than Him.
13:12

هُوَ الَّذِیْ یُرِیْكُمُ الْبَرْقَ خَوْفًا وَّطَمَعًا وَّیُنْشِئُ السَّحَابَ الثِّقَالَ

He is the One who makes you see the lightening in fear and hope, and who forms the heavy clouds.
13:13

وَیُسَبِّحُ الرَّعْدُ بِحَمْدِهٖ وَالْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ مِنْ خِیْفَتِهٖ ۚ وَیُرْسِلُ الصَّوَاعِقَ فَیُصِیْبُ بِهَا مَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَهُمْ یُجَادِلُوْنَ فِی اللّٰهِ ۚ وَهُوَ شَدِیْدُ الْمِحَالِ

The thunder proclaims His purity with His praise, and (so do) the angels, out of His awe. And He sends the thunderbolts and strikes with it whom He wills. They are quarrelling about Allah, and He is stern in His plan.
13:14

لَهٗ دَعْوَةُ الْحَقِّ ؕ وَالَّذِیْنَ یَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ لَا یَسْتَجِیْبُوْنَ لَهُمْ بِشَیْءٍ اِلَّا كَبَاسِطِ كَفَّیْهِ اِلَی الْمَآءِ لِیَبْلُغَ فَاهُ وَمَا هُوَ بِبَالِغِهٖ ؕ وَمَا دُعَآءُ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ اِلَّا فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ

True prayers are to be directed to Him alone; and those to whom they pray instead of Him do not respond to them at all, but they are like one who stretches his hands towards water so that it may reach his mouth (by itself), while it is not to reach it. And the prayer of the disbelievers (that they make to false gods) is nothing but straying in void.
13:15

وَلِلّٰهِ یَسْجُدُ مَنْ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ طَوْعًا وَّكَرْهًا وَّظِلٰلُهُمْ بِالْغُدُوِّ وَالْاٰصَالِ

To Allah bow in prostration all who are in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly, and their shadows as well in morns and eves.
13:16

قُلْ مَنْ رَّبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ قُلِ اللّٰهُ ؕ قُلْ اَفَاتَّخَذْتُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِهٖۤ اَوْلِیَآءَ لَا یَمْلِكُوْنَ لِاَنْفُسِهِمْ نَفْعًا وَّلَا ضَرًّا ؕ قُلْ هَلْ یَسْتَوِی الْاَعْمٰی وَالْبَصِیْرُ ۙ۬ اَمْ هَلْ تَسْتَوِی الظُّلُمٰتُ وَالنُّوْرُ ۚ۬ اَمْ جَعَلُوْا لِلّٰهِ شُرَكَآءَ خَلَقُوْا كَخَلْقِهٖ فَتَشَابَهَ الْخَلْقُ عَلَیْهِمْ ؕ قُلِ اللّٰهُ خَالِقُ كُلِّ شَیْءٍ وَّهُوَ الْوَاحِدُ الْقَهَّارُ

Say, “Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth?” Say, “Allah.” Say, “Have you, then, taken as protectors those besides Him who possess no power to cause benefit or harm even to themselves?” Say, “Is it that a blind person and a sighted one are equal, or that all sorts of the darkness and the light are alike?” Or, have they ascribed such partners with Allah who (according to their belief) have created (some of the creation) as He has created, and thus the creation seemed to them alike? Say, “Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the One, the All-Dominant.”
13:17

اَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَسَالَتْ اَوْدِیَةٌ بِقَدَرِهَا فَاحْتَمَلَ السَّیْلُ زَبَدًا رَّابِیًا ؕ وَمِمَّا یُوْقِدُوْنَ عَلَیْهِ فِی النَّارِ ابْتِغَآءَ حِلْیَةٍ اَوْ مَتَاعٍ زَبَدٌ مِّثْلُهٗ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ یَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْحَقَّ وَالْبَاطِلَ ؕ۬ فَاَمَّا الزَّبَدُ فَیَذْهَبُ جُفَآءً ۚ وَاَمَّا مَا یَنْفَعُ النَّاسَ فَیَمْكُثُ فِی الْاَرْضِ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ یَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْاَمْثَالَ

He sent down water from the heavens, so the canals flowed according to their capacity, and the flood carried bulging scum. And a similar scum comes up from what they melt in the fire to obtain ornaments or other objects. This is how Allah depicts the truth and the untruth. As for the scum, it goes to be thrown away, while that which benefits people remains on the earth. This is how Allah brings out the parables.
13:18

لِلَّذِیْنَ اسْتَجَابُوْا لِرَبِّهِمُ الْحُسْنٰی ؔؕ وَالَّذِیْنَ لَمْ یَسْتَجِیْبُوْا لَهٗ لَوْ اَنَّ لَهُمْ مَّا فِی الْاَرْضِ جَمِیْعًا وَّمِثْلَهٗ مَعَهٗ لَافْتَدَوْا بِهٖ ؕ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ لَهُمْ سُوْٓءُ الْحِسَابِ ۙ۬ وَمَاْوٰىهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ ؕ وَبِئْسَ الْمِهَادُ

For those who obey their Lord there is the best of rewards; and those who do not obey Him (shall be in such a plight that) even if they possess all that is on earth, rather twice as much, they would offer it in ransom (to redeem themselves from the punishment). For these there is the worst of reckoning, and their abode is Hell, which is an evil bed to rest.
13:19

اَفَمَنْ یَّعْلَمُ اَنَّمَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْكَ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ الْحَقُّ كَمَنْ هُوَ اَعْمٰی ؕ اِنَّمَا یَتَذَكَّرُ اُولُوا الْاَلْبَابِ

Now, can the one who knows that whatever has been revealed to you from your Lord is the truth, be equal to one who is blind? Only the people of understanding respond to the advice -
13:20

الَّذِیْنَ یُوْفُوْنَ بِعَهْدِ اللّٰهِ وَلَا یَنْقُضُوْنَ الْمِیْثَاقَ

those who fulfill (their) pledge with Allah and do not break the covenant,
13:21

وَالَّذِیْنَ یَصِلُوْنَ مَاۤ اَمَرَ اللّٰهُ بِهٖۤ اَنْ یُّوْصَلَ وَیَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ وَیَخَافُوْنَ سُوْٓءَ الْحِسَابِ

and those who maintain the relationships Allah has commanded to be maintained and fear their Lord and are frightful of evil reckoning,
13:22

وَالَّذِیْنَ صَبَرُوا ابْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِمْ وَاَقَامُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاَنْفَقُوْا مِمَّا رَزَقْنٰهُمْ سِرًّا وَّعَلَانِیَةً وَّیَدْرَءُوْنَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ السَّیِّئَةَ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ لَهُمْ عُقْبَی الدَّارِ

and those who observe patience in order to seek the pleasure of their Lord and establish Salāh and spend secretly and openly from what We have given to them, and repel evil with good. Those are the ones for whom there is the ultimate abode,
13:23

جَنّٰتُ عَدْنٍ یَّدْخُلُوْنَهَا وَمَنْ صَلَحَ مِنْ اٰبَآىِٕهِمْ وَاَزْوَاجِهِمْ وَذُرِّیّٰتِهِمْ وَالْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ یَدْخُلُوْنَ عَلَیْهِمْ مِّنْ كُلِّ بَابٍ

the eternal gardens they enter, and those as well who are righteous from their fathers, spouses, and progeny. The angels will enter onto them from every gate
13:24

سَلٰمٌ عَلَیْكُمْ بِمَا صَبَرْتُمْ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَی الدَّارِ

(saying) “Peace on you for the patience you observed. So, how excellent is the ultimate abode.”
13:25

وَالَّذِیْنَ یَنْقُضُوْنَ عَهْدَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ بَعْدِ مِیْثَاقِهٖ وَیَقْطَعُوْنَ مَاۤ اَمَرَ اللّٰهُ بِهٖۤ اَنْ یُّوْصَلَ وَیُفْسِدُوْنَ فِی الْاَرْضِ ۙ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ لَهُمُ اللَّعْنَةُ وَلَهُمْ سُوْٓءُ الدَّارِ

As for those who break their pledge with Allah after it has been made binding, and cut off the relationships Allah has commanded to be joined, and make mischief in the land, those are the ones for whom there is the curse, and for them there is the evil abode.
13:26

اَللّٰهُ یَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَیَقْدِرُ ؕ وَفَرِحُوْا بِالْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا ؕ وَمَا الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَا فِی الْاٰخِرَةِ اِلَّا مَتَاعٌ

Allah expands the provision for whom He wills and narrows it (for whom He wills). They are happy with the worldly life, while the worldly life, compared to the Hereafter, is nothing but a little enjoyment.
13:27

وَیَقُوْلُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَوْلَاۤ اُنْزِلَ عَلَیْهِ اٰیَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ ؕ قُلْ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُضِلُّ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَیَهْدِیْۤ اِلَیْهِ مَنْ اَنَابَ

The disbelievers say, “Why is it that no sign (of their choice) has been sent down to him from his Lord?” Say, “Allah lets go astray whom He wills and gives guidance to those who turn to Him,
13:28

اَلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَتَطْمَىِٕنُّ قُلُوْبُهُمْ بِذِكْرِ اللّٰهِ ؕ اَلَا بِذِكْرِ اللّٰهِ تَطْمَىِٕنُّ الْقُلُوْبُ

the ones who believe and their hearts are peaceful with the remembrance of Allah. Listen, the hearts find peace only in the remembrance of Allah.”
13:29

اَلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ طُوْبٰی لَهُمْ وَحُسْنُ مَاٰبٍ

Those who believe and do good deeds, for them there is the bliss and a good place to return.
13:30

كَذٰلِكَ اَرْسَلْنٰكَ فِیْۤ اُمَّةٍ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهَاۤ اُمَمٌ لِّتَتْلُوَاۡ عَلَیْهِمُ الَّذِیْۤ اَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلَیْكَ وَهُمْ یَكْفُرُوْنَ بِالرَّحْمٰنِ ؕ قُلْ هُوَ رَبِّیْ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ ۚ عَلَیْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَاِلَیْهِ مَتَابِ

Thus We have sent you, amidst a community before which many communities have passed away, so that you may recite to them what We have revealed to you, while they disbelieve in Ar-RaHmān (the All-Merciful Allah). Say, “He is my Lord. There is no god but He. In Him I place my trust, and to Him is my return.”
13:31

وَلَوْ اَنَّ قُرْاٰنًا سُیِّرَتْ بِهِ الْجِبَالُ اَوْ قُطِّعَتْ بِهِ الْاَرْضُ اَوْ كُلِّمَ بِهِ الْمَوْتٰی ؕ بَلْ لِّلّٰهِ الْاَمْرُ جَمِیْعًا ؕ اَفَلَمْ یَایْـَٔسِ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اَنْ لَّوْ یَشَآءُ اللّٰهُ لَهَدَی النَّاسَ جَمِیْعًا ؕ وَلَا یَزَالُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا تُصِیْبُهُمْ بِمَا صَنَعُوْا قَارِعَةٌ اَوْ تَحُلُّ قَرِیْبًا مِّنْ دَارِهِمْ حَتّٰی یَاْتِیَ وَعْدُ اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُخْلِفُ الْمِیْعَادَ

And even if there were a Qur’ān wherewith the mountains could be moved, or the earth could be split apart, or wherewith the dead are spoken to, (they would not believe). In fact, every decision rests only with Allah. Are the believers not satisfied with the fact that, if Allah willed, He would have brought all the people to the right path?And the disbelievers are continually receiving affliction because of what they did, or it visits somewhere close to their homes, until Allah’s promise will come to pass. Surely, Allah does not go back upon His promise.
13:32

وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَاَمْلَیْتُ لِلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا ثُمَّ اَخَذْتُهُمْ ۫ فَكَیْفَ كَانَ عِقَابِ

Messengers have been mocked at before you, so I let the disbelievers go on for a while. Then I seized them. So, how was My punishment?
13:33

اَفَمَنْ هُوَ قَآىِٕمٌ عَلٰی كُلِّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ ۚ وَجَعَلُوْا لِلّٰهِ شُرَكَآءَ ؕ قُلْ سَمُّوْهُمْ ؕ اَمْ تُنَبِّـُٔوْنَهٗ بِمَا لَا یَعْلَمُ فِی الْاَرْضِ اَمْ بِظَاهِرٍ مِّنَ الْقَوْلِ ؕ بَلْ زُیِّنَ لِلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا مَكْرُهُمْ وَصُدُّوْا عَنِ السَّبِیْلِ ؕ وَمَنْ یُّضْلِلِ اللّٰهُ فَمَا لَهٗ مِنْ هَادٍ

Is then He, who is watchful over everyone and over whatever he does, (equal to their false deities?) Still they have made partners with Allah. Say, “Give their names. Is it that you are informing Him of something on earth He does not know, or of just empty words?” But, their ill- designs have been made alluring for the disbelievers, and they have been barred from the Path. And for the one whom Allah deprives of guidance, there is no one to guide.
13:34

لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا وَلَعَذَابُ الْاٰخِرَةِ اَشَقُّ ۚ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ وَّاقٍ

For them there is punishment in the worldly life, and indeed the punishment of the Hereafter is even harder, and for them there is none to save them from Allah.
13:35

مَثَلُ الْجَنَّةِ الَّتِیْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ ؕ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ ؕ اُكُلُهَا دَآىِٕمٌ وَّظِلُّهَا ؕ تِلْكَ عُقْبَی الَّذِیْنَ اتَّقَوْا ۖۗ وَّعُقْبَی الْكٰفِرِیْنَ النَّارُ

Here is the description of the Paradise promised to the God-fearing: underneath it the rivers flow; its food is everlasting and (so is) its shade. This is the ultimate abode of the God-fearing while the ultimate abode of the disbelievers is Fire.
13:36

وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰتَیْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ یَفْرَحُوْنَ بِمَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْكَ وَمِنَ الْاَحْزَابِ مَنْ یُّنْكِرُ بَعْضَهٗ ؕ قُلْ اِنَّمَاۤ اُمِرْتُ اَنْ اَعْبُدَ اللّٰهَ وَلَاۤ اُشْرِكَ بِهٖ ؕ اِلَیْهِ اَدْعُوْا وَاِلَیْهِ مَاٰبِ

Those to whom We have given the Book are happy with what has been sent down to you. And among their groups there are those who deny some of it. Say, “I am commanded only to worship Allah and not to ascribe partners to Him. To Him I call and to Him is my return.”
13:37

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ حُكْمًا عَرَبِیًّا ؕ وَلَىِٕنِ اتَّبَعْتَ اَهْوَآءَهُمْ بَعْدَ مَا جَآءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ ۙ مَا لَكَ مِنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ وَّلِیٍّ وَّلَا وَاقٍ

Thus We have sent it down, being a command in Arabic. And if you follow their desires, after the knowledge that has come to you, there shall be neither a friend for you against Allah, nor a savior.
13:38

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلًا مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُمْ اَزْوَاجًا وَّذُرِّیَّةً ؕ وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُوْلٍ اَنْ یَّاْتِیَ بِاٰیَةٍ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِ اللّٰهِ ؕ لِكُلِّ اَجَلٍ كِتَابٌ

We have sent messengers before you, and gave them wives and children. It is not for a messenger to bring a verse without the will of Allah. For every age there are some rules prescribed.
13:39

یَمْحُوا اللّٰهُ مَا یَشَآءُ وَیُثْبِتُ ۖۚ وَعِنْدَهٗۤ اُمُّ الْكِتٰبِ

Allah wipes off what He wills and affirms (what He wills), and with Him is the Mother Book.
13:40

وَاِنْ مَّا نُرِیَنَّكَ بَعْضَ الَّذِیْ نَعِدُهُمْ اَوْ نَتَوَفَّیَنَّكَ فَاِنَّمَا عَلَیْكَ الْبَلٰغُ وَعَلَیْنَا الْحِسَابُ

And if We show you (O prophet) some of what We have promised to them, or We take you back to Us (before that), in both cases you have only to convey the message, and We have to reckon.
13:41

اَوَلَمْ یَرَوْا اَنَّا نَاْتِی الْاَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ اَطْرَافِهَا ؕ وَاللّٰهُ یَحْكُمُ لَا مُعَقِّبَ لِحُكْمِهٖ ؕ وَهُوَ سَرِیْعُ الْحِسَابِ

Have they not seen that We are coming to the land narrowing it down from all its sides? Allah judges; there is none to repel His judgement. And He is swift at reckoning.
13:42

وَقَدْ مَكَرَ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَلِلّٰهِ الْمَكْرُ جَمِیْعًا ؕ یَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْسِبُ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ؕ وَسَیَعْلَمُ الْكُفّٰرُ لِمَنْ عُقْبَی الدَّارِ

Those before them did devise plans, but all the real plans belong only to Allah. He knows what every soul earns, and the disbelievers will soon know for whom is the excellent end.
13:43

وَیَقُوْلُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَسْتَ مُرْسَلًا ؕ قُلْ كَفٰی بِاللّٰهِ شَهِیْدًا بَیْنِیْ وَبَیْنَكُمْ ۙ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهٗ عِلْمُ الْكِتٰبِ

The disbelievers say, “You are not a messenger.” Say, “Allah is sufficient as a witness between me and you, and those too (are my witnesses) who have the knowledge of the Book.”

14. Ibrahim

14:1

الٓرٰ ۫ كِتٰبٌ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ اِلَیْكَ لِتُخْرِجَ النَّاسَ مِنَ الظُّلُمٰتِ اِلَی النُّوْرِ ۙ۬ بِاِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ اِلٰی صِرَاطِ الْعَزِیْزِ الْحَمِیْدِ

Alif, Lām, Rā. This is a book We have sent down to you, so that you may deliver the people, with the will of their Lord, out of all sorts of darkness into the light, leading them to the path of the Almighty, the Praiseworthy
14:2

اللّٰهِ الَّذِیْ لَهٗ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِی الْاَرْضِ ؕ وَوَیْلٌ لِّلْكٰفِرِیْنَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ شَدِیْدِ

Allah, the One to whom belongs what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. Woe be to the disbelievers because of a severe punishment,
14:3

لَّذِیْنَ یَسْتَحِبُّوْنَ الْحَیٰوةَ الدُّنْیَا عَلَی الْاٰخِرَةِ وَیَصُدُّوْنَ عَنْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ وَیَبْغُوْنَهَا عِوَجًا ؕ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ بَعِیْدٍ

to those who prefer the worldly life to the Hereafter and prevent (people) from the way of Allah, and seek to make it crooked. Those have gone too far in straying.
14:4

وَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ اِلَّا بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِهٖ لِیُبَیِّنَ لَهُمْ ؕ فَیُضِلُّ اللّٰهُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَیَهْدِیْ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ؕ وَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ

We did not send any messenger but (speaking) in the language of his people, so that he might clearly convey the message to them. So, Allah lets go astray whom He wills and lets find guidance whom He wills. And He is the Mighty, the Wise.
14:5

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا مُوْسٰی بِاٰیٰتِنَاۤ اَنْ اَخْرِجْ قَوْمَكَ مِنَ الظُّلُمٰتِ اِلَی النُّوْرِ ۙ۬ وَذَكِّرْهُمْ بِاَیّٰىمِ اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍ شَكُوْرٍ

Surely, We sent Mūsā with Our signs saying to him, “Bring your people out of (all sorts of) darkness into the light, and remind them of the Days of Allah. Surely, there are signs therein for every one who observes patience and gratitude.
14:6

وَاِذْ قَالَ مُوْسٰی لِقَوْمِهِ اذْكُرُوْا نِعْمَةَ اللّٰهِ عَلَیْكُمْ اِذْ اَنْجٰىكُمْ مِّنْ اٰلِ فِرْعَوْنَ یَسُوْمُوْنَكُمْ سُوْٓءَ الْعَذَابِ وَیُذَبِّحُوْنَ اَبْنَآءَكُمْ وَیَسْتَحْیُوْنَ نِسَآءَكُمْ ؕ وَفِیْ ذٰلِكُمْ بَلَآءٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ عَظِیْمٌ

And when Mūsā said to his people, “Remember Allah’s blessing upon you when He delivered you from Pharaoh’s people who had been inflicting a grievous torment on you, slaughtering your sons and leaving your women alive. In that there was a great trial from your Lord.”
14:7

وَاِذْ تَاَذَّنَ رَبُّكُمْ لَىِٕنْ شَكَرْتُمْ لَاَزِیْدَنَّكُمْ وَلَىِٕنْ كَفَرْتُمْ اِنَّ عَذَابِیْ لَشَدِیْدٌ

(Recall the time) when your Lord declared, “If you express gratitude, I shall certainly give you more, and if you are ungrateful, then My punishment is severe.”
14:8

وَقَالَ مُوْسٰۤی اِنْ تَكْفُرُوْۤا اَنْتُمْ وَمَنْ فِی الْاَرْضِ جَمِیْعًا ۙ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَغَنِیٌّ حَمِیْدٌ

And Mūsā said, “If you and all those on earth become ungrateful, then Allah is free of all needs, worthy of every praise.”
14:9

اَلَمْ یَاْتِكُمْ نَبَؤُا الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ قَوْمِ نُوْحٍ وَّعَادٍ وَّثَمُوْدَ ۛؕ۬ وَالَّذِیْنَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ ۛؕ لَا یَعْلَمُهُمْ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ ؕ جَآءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَیِّنٰتِ فَرَدُّوْۤا اَیْدِیَهُمْ فِیْۤ اَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَقَالُوْۤا اِنَّا كَفَرْنَا بِمَاۤ اُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهٖ وَاِنَّا لَفِیْ شَكٍّ مِّمَّا تَدْعُوْنَنَاۤ اِلَیْهِ مُرِیْبٍ

Has there not come to you the news of those before you, the people of NūH, ‘Ād and Thamūd and of those after them. No one knows them except Allah. Their prophets came to them with clear signs, but they put their hands into their mouths and said, “We reject what you are sent with, and indeed we are in confounding doubt about what you are calling us to believe.”
14:10

قَالَتْ رُسُلُهُمْ اَفِی اللّٰهِ شَكٌّ فَاطِرِ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ یَدْعُوْكُمْ لِیَغْفِرَ لَكُمْ مِّنْ ذُنُوْبِكُمْ وَیُؤَخِّرَكُمْ اِلٰۤی اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّی ؕ قَالُوْۤا اِنْ اَنْتُمْ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا ؕ تُرِیْدُوْنَ اَنْ تَصُدُّوْنَا عَمَّا كَانَ یَعْبُدُ اٰبَآؤُنَا فَاْتُوْنَا بِسُلْطٰنٍ مُّبِیْنٍ

Their prophets said, “Is it in Allah that you have some doubt, who is the Creator of the heavens and the earth? He calls you, so that He may forgive you some of your sins and give you respite up to a specified term.” They said, “You are no more than a human being like us. You want to prevent us from what our forefathers used to worship. So, bring us some clear authority.”
14:11

قَالَتْ لَهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ اِنْ نَّحْنُ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَمُنُّ عَلٰی مَنْ یَّشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖ ؕ وَمَا كَانَ لَنَاۤ اَنْ نَّاْتِیَكُمْ بِسُلْطٰنٍ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِ اللّٰهِ ؕ وَعَلَی اللّٰهِ فَلْیَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ

Their prophets said to them, “We are no more than a human being like you, but Allah bestows His favour upon whom He wills from among His servants. It is not for us to bring you an authority without Allah’s permission, and in Allah the believers must place their trust.
14:12

وَمَا لَنَاۤ اَلَّا نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ وَقَدْ هَدٰىنَا سُبُلَنَا ؕ وَلَنَصْبِرَنَّ عَلٰی مَاۤ اٰذَیْتُمُوْنَا ؕ وَعَلَی اللّٰهِ فَلْیَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُوْنَ

What is wrong with us that we should not put our trust in Allah when He has guided us to our paths? We shall, of course, endure with patience all your persecutions; and all those who have to trust should trust only in Allah.”
14:13

وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لِرُسُلِهِمْ لَنُخْرِجَنَّكُمْ مِّنْ اَرْضِنَاۤ اَوْ لَتَعُوْدُنَّ فِیْ مِلَّتِنَا ؕ فَاَوْحٰۤی اِلَیْهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ لَنُهْلِكَنَّ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

The disbelievers said to their prophets, “We shall certainly expel you from our land unless you come back to our faith.” So, their Lord revealed to them, “We shall destroy the transgressors,
14:14

وَلَنُسْكِنَنَّكُمُ الْاَرْضَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ ؕ ذٰلِكَ لِمَنْ خَافَ مَقَامِیْ وَخَافَ وَعِیْدِ

and shall certainly let you dwell in the land after them. This is for the one who is fearful of standing before Me and is fearful of My warning.”
14:15

وَاسْتَفْتَحُوْا وَخَابَ كُلُّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِیْدٍ

They sought final decision (by demanding the divine scourge), and (thus) every obstinate tyrant failed.
14:16

مِّنْ وَّرَآىِٕهٖ جَهَنَّمُ وَیُسْقٰی مِنْ مَّآءٍ صَدِیْدٍ

The Hell is pursuing him, and he shall be made to drink pus-fluid,
14:17

یَّتَجَرَّعُهٗ وَلَا یَكَادُ یُسِیْغُهٗ وَیَاْتِیْهِ الْمَوْتُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَّمَا هُوَ بِمَیِّتٍ ؕ وَمِنْ وَّرَآىِٕهٖ عَذَابٌ غَلِیْظٌ

which he will arduously sip, and will not be able to swallow. Death will come upon him from every side, yet he will not die, and still a heavy chastisement will be ahead of him.
14:18

مَثَلُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِرَبِّهِمْ اَعْمَالُهُمْ كَرَمَادِ شْتَدَّتْ بِهِ الرِّیْحُ فِیْ یَوْمٍ عَاصِفٍ ؕ لَا یَقْدِرُوْنَ مِمَّا كَسَبُوْا عَلٰی شَیْءٍ ؕ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلٰلُ الْبَعِیْدُ

The deeds of those who refuse to believe in their Lord are like ashes blown away by the wind on a stormy day. They will not be able to gain anything out of what they did. That is the farthest point of straying away from the right path.
14:19

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ ؕ اِنْ یَّشَاْ یُذْهِبْكُمْ وَیَاْتِ بِخَلْقٍ جَدِیْدٍ

Have you not seen that Allah has created the heavens and the earth with truth? If He wills, He can put you away and bring a new creation;
14:20

وَّمَا ذٰلِكَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ بِعَزِیْزٍ

and that is not at all difficult for Allah.
14:21

وَبَرَزُوْا لِلّٰهِ جَمِیْعًا فَقَالَ الضُّعَفٰٓؤُا لِلَّذِیْنَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْۤا اِنَّا كُنَّا لَكُمْ تَبَعًا فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّغْنُوْنَ عَنَّا مِنْ عَذَابِ اللّٰهِ مِنْ شَیْءٍ ؕ قَالُوْا لَوْ هَدٰىنَا اللّٰهُ لَهَدَیْنٰكُمْ ؕ سَوَآءٌ عَلَیْنَاۤ اَجَزِعْنَاۤ اَمْ صَبَرْنَا مَا لَنَا مِنْ مَّحِیْصٍ

All of them shall appear before Allah. Then, the weak shall say to the arrogant, “We were your followers. So, can you relieve us a little from Allah’s punishment?” They will say, “Had Allah guided us, we would have guided you. It is all the same for us whether we deplore or endure, we have no way out.”
14:22

وَقَالَ الشَّیْطٰنُ لَمَّا قُضِیَ الْاَمْرُ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ وَعَدَكُمْ وَعْدَ الْحَقِّ وَوَعَدْتُّكُمْ فَاَخْلَفْتُكُمْ ؕ وَمَا كَانَ لِیَ عَلَیْكُمْ مِّنْ سُلْطٰنٍ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ دَعَوْتُكُمْ فَاسْتَجَبْتُمْ لِیْ ۚ فَلَا تَلُوْمُوْنِیْ وَلُوْمُوْۤا اَنْفُسَكُمْ ؕ مَاۤ اَنَا بِمُصْرِخِكُمْ وَمَاۤ اَنْتُمْ بِمُصْرِخِیَّ ؕ اِنِّیْ كَفَرْتُ بِمَاۤ اَشْرَكْتُمُوْنِ مِنْ قَبْلُ ؕ اِنَّ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ

The Satan will say when the matter will have been decided, “Allah promised you a truthful promise while I gave you a promise and did not fulfill it. I had no authority over you, except that I invited you and you accepted my call. So, do not blame me, but blame yourselves. Neither I can come to your help, nor can you come to my help. I disown your associating me with Allah in the past. Surely, there is a painful punishment for the unjust.”
14:23

وَاُدْخِلَ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِیْنَ فِیْهَا بِاِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ ؕ تَحِیَّتُهُمْ فِیْهَا سَلٰمٌ

And those who believed and did good deeds shall be admitted to Gardens beneath which rivers flow, living there forever by the will of Allah. There they shall greet each other with “Salām.”
14:24

اَلَمْ تَرَ كَیْفَ ضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا كَلِمَةً طَیِّبَةً كَشَجَرَةٍ طَیِّبَةٍ اَصْلُهَا ثَابِتٌ وَّفَرْعُهَا فِی السَّمَآءِ

Have you not seen how Allah has set forth a parable: A good word is like a good tree, having its root firm and its branches in the sky.
14:25

تُؤْتِیْۤ اُكُلَهَا كُلَّ حِیْنٍ بِاِذْنِ رَبِّهَا ؕ وَیَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْاَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَتَذَكَّرُوْنَ

It brings its fruits at all times with the will of its Lord. Allah sets forth the parables for the people, so that they may take lesson.
14:26

وَمَثَلُ كَلِمَةٍ خَبِیْثَةٍ كَشَجَرَةٍ خَبِیْثَةِ جْتُثَّتْ مِنْ فَوْقِ الْاَرْضِ مَا لَهَا مِنْ قَرَارٍ

And the parable of a bad word is like a bad tree, removed from the top of the soil, having no firm root.
14:27

یُثَبِّتُ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا وَفِی الْاٰخِرَةِ ۚ وَیُضِلُّ اللّٰهُ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ ۙ۫ وَیَفْعَلُ اللّٰهُ مَا یَشَآءُ

Allah keeps the believers firm with the stable word in the worldly life and in the Hereafter; and Allah lets the unjust go astray; and Allah does what He wills.
14:28

اَلَمْ تَرَ اِلَی الَّذِیْنَ بَدَّلُوْا نِعْمَتَ اللّٰهِ كُفْرًا وَّاَحَلُّوْا قَوْمَهُمْ دَارَ الْبَوَارِ

Have you not seen those who adopted disbelief in exchange of Allah’s favor and caused their people to disembark at a land of total destruction,
14:29

جَهَنَّمَ ۚ یَصْلَوْنَهَا ؕ وَبِئْسَ الْقَرَارُ

(which is) the Jahannam. They shall enter it; and it is an evil place to dwell.
14:30

وَجَعَلُوْا لِلّٰهِ اَنْدَادًا لِّیُضِلُّوْا عَنْ سَبِیْلِهٖ ؕ قُلْ تَمَتَّعُوْا فَاِنَّ مَصِیْرَكُمْ اِلَی النَّارِ

They have set up partners with Allah, so that they may mislead (the people) from His path. Say, “Enjoy (for a while). Then your ultimate journey is to the Fire.”
14:31

قُلْ لِّعِبَادِیَ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا یُقِیْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَیُنْفِقُوْا مِمَّا رَزَقْنٰهُمْ سِرًّا وَّعَلَانِیَةً مِّنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ یَّاْتِیَ یَوْمٌ لَّا بَیْعٌ فِیْهِ وَلَا خِلٰلٌ

Say to My believing servants that they should establish Salāh and spend, secretly and openly, out of what We have given to them before there comes a day in which there is neither a trade nor friendship.
14:32

اَللّٰهُ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ وَاَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَاَخْرَجَ بِهٖ مِنَ الثَّمَرٰتِ رِزْقًا لَّكُمْ ۚ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْفُلْكَ لِتَجْرِیَ فِی الْبَحْرِ بِاَمْرِهٖ ۚ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْاَنْهٰرَ

Allah is the One who created the heavens and the earth and sent down water from the sky, then brought forth with it sustenance for you from the produce, and subjugated for you the ships, so that they may sail in the sea with His command, and subjugated for you the rivers;
14:33

وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ دَآىِٕبَیْنِ ۚ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الَّیْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ

and He subjugated for you the sun and the moon, moving constantly, and subjugated for you the day and the night,
14:34

وَاٰتٰىكُمْ مِّنْ كُلِّ مَا سَاَلْتُمُوْهُ ؕ وَاِنْ تَعُدُّوْا نِعْمَتَ اللّٰهِ لَا تُحْصُوْهَا ؕ اِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ لَظَلُوْمٌ كَفَّارٌ

and He gave you whatever you asked for. If you (try to) count the bounties of Allah, you cannot count them all. Indeed, man is highly unjust, very ungrateful.
14:35

وَاِذْ قَالَ اِبْرٰهِیْمُ رَبِّ اجْعَلْ هٰذَا الْبَلَدَ اٰمِنًا وَّاجْنُبْنِیْ وَبَنِیَّ اَنْ نَّعْبُدَ الْاَصْنَامَ

(Recall) when Ibrāhīm said, “My Lord, make this city peaceful, and keep me and my children away from worshiping idols.
14:36

رَبِّ اِنَّهُنَّ اَضْلَلْنَ كَثِیْرًا مِّنَ النَّاسِ ۚ فَمَنْ تَبِعَنِیْ فَاِنَّهٗ مِنِّیْ ۚ وَمَنْ عَصَانِیْ فَاِنَّكَ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِیْمٌ

My Lord, they have misled many a people. So, the one who follows me does surely belong to me. As for the one who disobeys me, then You are Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.
14:37

رَبَّنَاۤ اِنِّیْۤ اَسْكَنْتُ مِنْ ذُرِّیَّتِیْ بِوَادٍ غَیْرِ ذِیْ زَرْعٍ عِنْدَ بَیْتِكَ الْمُحَرَّمِ ۙ رَبَّنَا لِیُقِیْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ فَاجْعَلْ اَفْىِٕدَةً مِّنَ النَّاسِ تَهْوِیْۤ اِلَیْهِمْ وَارْزُقْهُمْ مِّنَ الثَّمَرٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَشْكُرُوْنَ

Our Lord, I have settled some of my children in a valley of no vegetation, close to Your sanctified House, so that, Our Lord, they may establish Salāh. So, make hearts of people yearn towards them, and provide them with fruits, so that they may be grateful.
14:38

رَبَّنَاۤ اِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ مَا نُخْفِیْ وَمَا نُعْلِنُ ؕ وَمَا یَخْفٰی عَلَی اللّٰهِ مِنْ شَیْءٍ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَلَا فِی السَّمَآءِ

Our Lord, surely You know what we conceal and what we reveal.-Hidden from Allah is nothing whatsoever, neither in the earth nor in the heavens.
14:39

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِیْ وَهَبَ لِیْ عَلَی الْكِبَرِ اِسْمٰعِیْلَ وَاِسْحٰقَ ؕ اِنَّ رَبِّیْ لَسَمِیْعُ الدُّعَآءِ

Praise be to Allah who, despite my old age, blessed me with Ismā‘īl (Ishmael) and IsHāq (Isaac). Surely, my Lord is the One who listens to the prayer.
14:40

رَبِّ اجْعَلْنِیْ مُقِیْمَ الصَّلٰوةِ وَمِنْ ذُرِّیَّتِیْ ۖۗ رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلْ دُعَآءِ

My Lord, make me steadfast in Salāh, and my offspring as well. And, Our Lord, grant my prayer.
14:41

رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لِیْ وَلِوَالِدَیَّ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ یَوْمَ یَقُوْمُ الْحِسَابُ

Our Lord, forgive me and my parents and all believers on the day when reckoning shall take place.”
14:42

وَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ اللّٰهَ غَافِلًا عَمَّا یَعْمَلُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ ؕ۬ اِنَّمَا یُؤَخِّرُهُمْ لِیَوْمٍ تَشْخَصُ فِیْهِ الْاَبْصَارُ

Never think that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers are doing. He is but giving them respite up to a day when the eyes shall remain upraised (in terror).
14:43

مُهْطِعِیْنَ مُقْنِعِیْ رُءُوْسِهِمْ لَا یَرْتَدُّ اِلَیْهِمْ طَرْفُهُمْ ۚ وَاَفْـِٕدَتُهُمْ هَوَآءٌ

They shall be rushing with their heads raised upward; their eyes shall not return towards them and their hearts shall be hollow.
14:44

وَاَنْذِرِ النَّاسَ یَوْمَ یَاْتِیْهِمُ الْعَذَابُ فَیَقُوْلُ الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا رَبَّنَاۤ اَخِّرْنَاۤ اِلٰۤی اَجَلٍ قَرِیْبٍ ۙ نُّجِبْ دَعْوَتَكَ وَنَتَّبِعِ الرُّسُلَ ؕ اَوَلَمْ تَكُوْنُوْۤا اَقْسَمْتُمْ مِّنْ قَبْلُ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ زَوَالٍ

Warn the people of a day when punishment will come upon them, and the wrongdoers will say, “Our Lord, give us respite for a short term, and we will respond to Your call and will follow the messengers.” (Allah will say), “Is it not that you had sworn oaths earlier that you would not have to leave (the world)?
14:45

وَّسَكَنْتُمْ فِیْ مَسٰكِنِ الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْۤا اَنْفُسَهُمْ وَتَبَیَّنَ لَكُمْ كَیْفَ فَعَلْنَا بِهِمْ وَضَرَبْنَا لَكُمُ الْاَمْثَالَ

And you dwelt in the dwellings of those who wronged themselves, and it became clear to you how We dealt with them, and We put forth for you the examples.”
14:46

وَقَدْ مَكَرُوْا مَكْرَهُمْ وَعِنْدَ اللّٰهِ مَكْرُهُمْ ؕ وَاِنْ كَانَ مَكْرُهُمْ لِتَزُوْلَ مِنْهُ الْجِبَالُ

And they worked out their plot and whatever they plot is before Allah, even though their plot is such as would move the mountains.
14:47

فَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ اللّٰهَ مُخْلِفَ وَعْدِهٖ رُسُلَهٗ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَزِیْزٌ ذُو انْتِقَامٍ

So, never think that Allah will do against His promise to His messengers. Surely, Allah is Mighty, the Lord of Retribution
14:48

یَوْمَ تُبَدَّلُ الْاَرْضُ غَیْرَ الْاَرْضِ وَالسَّمٰوٰتُ وَبَرَزُوْا لِلّٰهِ الْوَاحِدِ الْقَهَّارِ

the day on which this earth will be turned into some other earth, and the skies as well, and they all shall appear before Allah, the One, the All-Dominant.
14:49

وَتَرَی الْمُجْرِمِیْنَ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ مُّقَرَّنِیْنَ فِی الْاَصْفَادِ

On that day you will see the culprits tied up together in chains,
14:50

سَرَابِیْلُهُمْ مِّنْ قَطِرَانٍ وَّتَغْشٰی وُجُوْهَهُمُ النَّارُ

their shirts will be of rosin, and their faces will be covered with Fire
14:51

لِیَجْزِیَ اللّٰهُ كُلَّ نَفْسٍ مَّا كَسَبَتْ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ سَرِیْعُ الْحِسَابِ

so that Allah repays everyone in full whatever he earned. Indeed, Allah is swift at reckoning.
14:52

هٰذَا بَلٰغٌ لِّلنَّاسِ وَلِیُنْذَرُوْا بِهٖ وَلِیَعْلَمُوْۤا اَنَّمَا هُوَ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌ وَّلِیَذَّكَّرَ اُولُوا الْاَلْبَابِ

This is a message for mankind, so that they (take lesson and) be warned, and so that they may know that He is One God, and so that the people of understanding may observe the advice.
