190 Ayahs

Translation: Mufti Taqi Usmani  ·  Arabic: Indo-Pak script

21. Al-Anbya

21:1

اِقْتَرَبَ لِلنَّاسِ حِسَابُهُمْ وَهُمْ فِیْ غَفْلَةٍ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ

The reckoning of the people has drawn near to them, while they are in negligence, turning away (from its signs).
21:2

مَا یَاْتِیْهِمْ مِّنْ ذِكْرٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهِمْ مُّحْدَثٍ اِلَّا اسْتَمَعُوْهُ وَهُمْ یَلْعَبُوْنَ

No fresh message of advice comes to them from their Lord, but they listen to it as if they were playing,
21:3

لَاهِیَةً قُلُوْبُهُمْ ؕ وَاَسَرُّوا النَّجْوَی ۖۗ الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا ۖۗ هَلْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ ۚ اَفَتَاْتُوْنَ السِّحْرَ وَاَنْتُمْ تُبْصِرُوْنَ

their hearts paying no heed. And the wrongdoers whisper in secret, “This one is nothing but a mortal like you. Would you then go along with sorcery while you can see (the reality)?”
21:4

قٰلَ رَبِّیْ یَعْلَمُ الْقَوْلَ فِی السَّمَآءِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؗ وَهُوَ السَّمِیْعُ الْعَلِیْمُ

He (the prophet) said, “My Lord knows all that is spoken in the heavens and the earth, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.”
21:5

بَلْ قَالُوْۤا اَضْغَاثُ اَحْلَامٍ بَلِ افْتَرٰىهُ بَلْ هُوَ شَاعِرٌ ۖۚ فَلْیَاْتِنَا بِاٰیَةٍ كَمَاۤ اُرْسِلَ الْاَوَّلُوْنَ

Further they said, “(The Qur’ān is) a mixture of jumble dreams. Rather, he (the prophet) has fabricated it. Rather, he is a poet. So, let him bring a sign to us, as the earlier ones were sent with.”
21:6

مَاۤ اٰمَنَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ مِّنْ قَرْیَةٍ اَهْلَكْنٰهَا ۚ اَفَهُمْ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ

Not a single town from those whom We destroyed came to believe before them. So, will they believe?
21:7

وَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ اِلَّا رِجَالًا نُّوْحِیْۤ اِلَیْهِمْ فَسْـَٔلُوْۤا اَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ

And We did not send before you messengers except men whom We inspired with revelation. So, ask the people (having the knowledge) of the Message, if you do not know.
21:8

وَمَا جَعَلْنٰهُمْ جَسَدًا لَّا یَاْكُلُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ وَمَا كَانُوْا خٰلِدِیْنَ

We did not make them such bodies as ate no food, nor were they immortal.
21:9

ثُمَّ صَدَقْنٰهُمُ الْوَعْدَ فَاَنْجَیْنٰهُمْ وَمَنْ نَّشَآءُ وَاَهْلَكْنَا الْمُسْرِفِیْنَ

Then We caused the promise to come true for them, so We saved them and those whom We willed, and destroyed the transgressors.
21:10

لَقَدْ اَنْزَلْنَاۤ اِلَیْكُمْ كِتٰبًا فِیْهِ ذِكْرُكُمْ ؕ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ

Surely, We have sent down to you (O people of Arabia) a book having a good counsel for you. So, do you not understand?
21:11

وَكَمْ قَصَمْنَا مِنْ قَرْیَةٍ كَانَتْ ظَالِمَةً وَّاَنْشَاْنَا بَعْدَهَا قَوْمًا اٰخَرِیْنَ

How many a town, that were unjust, have We crushed and raised up after them another people!
21:12

فَلَمَّاۤ اَحَسُّوْا بَاْسَنَاۤ اِذَا هُمْ مِّنْهَا یَرْكُضُوْنَ

So, as soon as they sensed Our punishment (approaching them), they started fleeing from it.
21:13

لَا تَرْكُضُوْا وَارْجِعُوْۤا اِلٰی مَاۤ اُتْرِفْتُمْ فِیْهِ وَمَسٰكِنِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْـَٔلُوْنَ

(It was said to them,) “Do not flee, and go back to the luxuries you were made to enjoy, and to your dwellings. May be you are asked questions.”
21:14

قَالُوْا یٰوَیْلَنَاۤ اِنَّا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِیْنَ

They said, “Alas for us! We were wrongdoers indeed.”
21:15

فَمَا زَالَتْ تِّلْكَ دَعْوٰىهُمْ حَتّٰی جَعَلْنٰهُمْ حَصِیْدًا خٰمِدِیْنَ

Then, this continued to be their cry till We turned them into stubble, totally extinguished.
21:16

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَآءَ وَالْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَیْنَهُمَا لٰعِبِیْنَ

We did not create the heavens and the earth and what lies between them for play.
21:17

لَوْ اَرَدْنَاۤ اَنْ نَّتَّخِذَ لَهْوًا لَّاتَّخَذْنٰهُ مِنْ لَّدُنَّاۤ ۖۗ اِنْ كُنَّا فٰعِلِیْنَ

Had We intended to have a pastime, We would have had it from Our own, if We were ever to do so.
21:18

بَلْ نَقْذِفُ بِالْحَقِّ عَلَی الْبَاطِلِ فَیَدْمَغُهٗ فَاِذَا هُوَ زَاهِقٌ ؕ وَلَكُمُ الْوَیْلُ مِمَّا تَصِفُوْنَ

Instead, We launch the truth against falsehood, which gets it smashed, and in no time it is gone. Alas to you for what you describe!
21:19

وَلَهٗ مَنْ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهٗ لَا یَسْتَكْبِرُوْنَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهٖ وَلَا یَسْتَحْسِرُوْنَ

To Him belong all those in the heavens and the earth. And those who are near to Him are not arrogant against His worship, nor are they sluggish.
21:20

یُسَبِّحُوْنَ الَّیْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لَا یَفْتُرُوْنَ

They proclaim His purity night and day, never slackening.
21:21

اَمِ اتَّخَذُوْۤا اٰلِهَةً مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ هُمْ یُنْشِرُوْنَ

Or have they adopted gods from the earth, who raise the dead?
21:22

لَوْ كَانَ فِیْهِمَاۤ اٰلِهَةٌ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ لَفَسَدَتَا ۚ فَسُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ عَمَّا یَصِفُوْنَ

Had there been gods beside Allah, in the heavens and the earth, both of them would have fallen in disorder. So pure is Allah, the Lord of the Throne, from what they describe.
21:23

لَا یُسْـَٔلُ عَمَّا یَفْعَلُ وَهُمْ یُسْـَٔلُوْنَ

He is not questioned of what He does, and they are questioned.
21:24

اَمِ اتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖۤ اٰلِهَةً ؕ قُلْ هَاتُوْا بُرْهَانَكُمْ ۚ هٰذَا ذِكْرُ مَنْ مَّعِیَ وَذِكْرُ مَنْ قَبْلِیْ ؕ بَلْ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ ۙ الْحَقَّ فَهُمْ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ

Is it that they have adopted gods besides Him? Say, “Bring your proof.” Here is the (book carrying) advice for those with me, and the (books carrying) advice for those before me. Yet most of them do not know the truth, and therefore they are averse.
21:25

وَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ اِلَّا نُوْحِیْۤ اِلَیْهِ اَنَّهٗ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّاۤ اَنَا فَاعْبُدُوْنِ

We did not send before you any messenger but We revealed to him that there is no god but I, so worship Me.”
21:26

وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَلَدًا سُبْحٰنَهٗ ؕ بَلْ عِبَادٌ مُّكْرَمُوْنَ

They said, “The RaHmān (the All-Merciful, Allah) has taken children for Himself.” Pure is He (from having children). They are but (His) honored servants.
21:27

لَا یَسْبِقُوْنَهٗ بِالْقَوْلِ وَهُمْ بِاَمْرِهٖ یَعْمَلُوْنَ

They do not precede Him in speech, and only under His command they act.
21:28

یَعْلَمُ مَا بَیْنَ اَیْدِیْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا یَشْفَعُوْنَ ۙ اِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضٰی وَهُمْ مِّنْ خَشْیَتِهٖ مُشْفِقُوْنَ

He knows what is in front of them and what is behind them, and they make recommendation for none but for whom He likes, and in awe of Him they are fearful.
21:29

وَمَنْ یَّقُلْ مِنْهُمْ اِنِّیْۤ اِلٰهٌ مِّنْ دُوْنِهٖ فَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِیْهِ جَهَنَّمَ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِی الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

Should any one of them say, “I am god besides Him”, We will recompense him with Jahannam (Hell). This is how We recompense the transgressors.
21:30

اَوَلَمْ یَرَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْۤا اَنَّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ كَانَتَا رَتْقًا فَفَتَقْنٰهُمَا ؕ وَجَعَلْنَا مِنَ الْمَآءِ كُلَّ شَیْءٍ حَیٍّ ؕ اَفَلَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ

Did the disbelievers not observe that the heavens and the earth were closed, then We opened them? And We created from water every living thing. Would they still not believe?
21:31

وَجَعَلْنَا فِی الْاَرْضِ رَوَاسِیَ اَنْ تَمِیْدَ بِهِمْ ۪ وَجَعَلْنَا فِیْهَا فِجَاجًا سُبُلًا لَّعَلَّهُمْ یَهْتَدُوْنَ

And We created mountains on the earth, lest it should shake with them, and We have made therein paths and ways, so that they are guided.
21:32

وَجَعَلْنَا السَّمَآءَ سَقْفًا مَّحْفُوْظًا ۖۚ وَّهُمْ عَنْ اٰیٰتِهَا مُعْرِضُوْنَ

We made the sky a protected roof; and they are averse to its signs.
21:33

وَهُوَ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَ الَّیْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ ؕ كُلٌّ فِیْ فَلَكٍ یَّسْبَحُوْنَ

He is the One who has created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each floating in an orbit.
21:34

وَمَا جَعَلْنَا لِبَشَرٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ الْخُلْدَ ؕ اَفَاۡىِٕنْ مِّتَّ فَهُمُ الْخٰلِدُوْنَ

We did not assign immortality to any human (even) before you. So, if you die, will they live for ever?
21:35

كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَآىِٕقَةُ الْمَوْتِ ؕ وَنَبْلُوْكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَیْرِ فِتْنَةً ؕ وَاِلَیْنَا تُرْجَعُوْنَ

Every one has to taste death, and We test you through bad and good (situations) with a trial, and to Us you are to be returned.
21:36

وَاِذَا رَاٰكَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْۤا اِنْ یَّتَّخِذُوْنَكَ اِلَّا هُزُوًا ؕ اَهٰذَا الَّذِیْ یَذْكُرُ اٰلِهَتَكُمْ ۚ وَهُمْ بِذِكْرِ الرَّحْمٰنِ هُمْ كٰفِرُوْنَ

When disbelievers see you, they do nothing but take you in jest (saying to one another,) “Is this the one who talks of your gods?” - while they themselves reject even talking of the RaHmān (All-Merciful).
21:37

خُلِقَ الْاِنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍ ؕ سَاُورِیْكُمْ اٰیٰتِیْ فَلَا تَسْتَعْجِلُوْنِ

Man is made of haste. I shall show you My signs, so do not seek haste from Me.
21:38

وَیَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰی هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ

They say, “When will this promise be (fulfilled), if you are true?”
21:39

لَوْ یَعْلَمُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا حِیْنَ لَا یَكُفُّوْنَ عَنْ وُّجُوْهِهِمُ النَّارَ وَلَا عَنْ ظُهُوْرِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ یُنْصَرُوْنَ

Only if the disbelievers were to know the time when they will not (be able to) keep off the fire from their faces or from their backs, nor will they be helped.
21:40

بَلْ تَاْتِیْهِمْ بَغْتَةً فَتَبْهَتُهُمْ فَلَا یَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ رَدَّهَا وَلَا هُمْ یُنْظَرُوْنَ

Rather, it will come upon them suddenly and will baffle them. So they will not be able to turn it back, nor will they be given respite.
21:41

وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِالَّذِیْنَ سَخِرُوْا مِنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ یَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ

In fact, messengers have been mocked at prior to you. So those who laughed at them were besieged by what they used to ridicule.
21:42

قُلْ مَنْ یَّكْلَؤُكُمْ بِالَّیْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ مِنَ الرَّحْمٰنِ ؕ بَلْ هُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِمْ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ

Say, “Who will guard you, during night and day, against the RaHmān (All-Merciful, Allah)?” Rather, to the remembrance of their Lord they are averse.
21:43

اَمْ لَهُمْ اٰلِهَةٌ تَمْنَعُهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِنَا ؕ لَا یَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ نَصْرَ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ مِّنَّا یُصْحَبُوْنَ

Or do they have gods who protect them besides Us? They are not able to help even themselves, nor will they have anyone to side with them against Us.
21:44

بَلْ مَتَّعْنَا هٰۤؤُلَآءِ وَاٰبَآءَهُمْ حَتّٰی طَالَ عَلَیْهِمُ الْعُمُرُ ؕ اَفَلَا یَرَوْنَ اَنَّا نَاْتِی الْاَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ اَطْرَافِهَا ؕ اَفَهُمُ الْغٰلِبُوْنَ

But We have given benefits to these and their fathers until life was prolonged for them. So do they not see that We are coming to the land narrowing it down from all its sides? Then, are they the ones to prevail?
21:45

قُلْ اِنَّمَاۤ اُنْذِرُكُمْ بِالْوَحْیِ ۖؗ وَلَا یَسْمَعُ الصُّمُّ الدُّعَآءَ اِذَا مَا یُنْذَرُوْنَ

Say, “I warn you only by revelation, but the deaf do not listen to the call when they are warned.”
21:46

وَلَىِٕنْ مَّسَّتْهُمْ نَفْحَةٌ مِّنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّكَ لَیَقُوْلُنَّ یٰوَیْلَنَاۤ اِنَّا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِیْنَ

If a whiff of your Lord’s torment were to touch them, they would certainly say, “Alas to us! We were wrongdoers indeed.”
21:47

وَنَضَعُ الْمَوَازِیْنَ الْقِسْطَ لِیَوْمِ الْقِیٰمَةِ فَلَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَیْـًٔا ؕ وَاِنْ كَانَ مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنْ خَرْدَلٍ اَتَیْنَا بِهَا ؕ وَكَفٰی بِنَا حٰسِبِیْنَ

We shall place scales to do justice on the Day of Judgment. So no one shall be wronged in the least. Even if it (a deed) is to the measure of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth, and We are enough to take account.
21:48

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسٰی وَهٰرُوْنَ الْفُرْقَانَ وَضِیَآءً وَّذِكْرًا لِّلْمُتَّقِیْنَ

And We gave Mūsā and Hārūn the Criterion, and a light and an advice for the God-fearing,
21:49

الَّذِیْنَ یَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَیْبِ وَهُمْ مِّنَ السَّاعَةِ مُشْفِقُوْنَ

- those who have awe of their Lord without having seen Him, and are fearful of the Hour (of Judgment).
21:50

وَهٰذَا ذِكْرٌ مُّبٰرَكٌ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ ؕ اَفَاَنْتُمْ لَهٗ مُنْكِرُوْنَ

And this is a blessed advice We have sent down. Are you still rejecting it?
21:51

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَاۤ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ رُشْدَهٗ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَكُنَّا بِهٖ عٰلِمِیْنَ

Even earlier We had given Ibrāhīm his right course, and We knew him well
21:52

اِذْ قَالَ لِاَبِیْهِ وَقَوْمِهٖ مَا هٰذِهِ التَّمَاثِیْلُ الَّتِیْۤ اَنْتُمْ لَهَا عٰكِفُوْنَ

when he said to his father and his people, “What are these statues you are devoted to?”
21:53

قَالُوْا وَجَدْنَاۤ اٰبَآءَنَا لَهَا عٰبِدِیْنَ

They said, “We found our fathers worshipping them,”
21:54

قَالَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُمْ اَنْتُمْ وَاٰبَآؤُكُمْ فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِیْنٍ

He said, “Surely you and your fathers have been in open error.”
21:55

قَالُوْۤا اَجِئْتَنَا بِالْحَقِّ اَمْ اَنْتَ مِنَ اللّٰعِبِیْنَ

They said, “Did you come to us with truth or are you one of the triflers?”
21:56

قَالَ بَلْ رَّبُّكُمْ رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ الَّذِیْ فَطَرَهُنَّ ۖؗ وَاَنَا عَلٰی ذٰلِكُمْ مِّنَ الشّٰهِدِیْنَ

He said, “No, your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, who has created them, and I am one of those who bear witness to it.
21:57

وَتَاللّٰهِ لَاَكِیْدَنَّ اَصْنَامَكُمْ بَعْدَ اَنْ تُوَلُّوْا مُدْبِرِیْنَ

And I swear by Allah that I will devise something against your idols after you have gone away turning your backs.”
21:58

فَجَعَلَهُمْ جُذٰذًا اِلَّا كَبِیْرًا لَّهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ اِلَیْهِ یَرْجِعُوْنَ

Then, he turned all of them into pieces, except the big one of them, so that they may come back to it.
21:59

قَالُوْا مَنْ فَعَلَ هٰذَا بِاٰلِهَتِنَاۤ اِنَّهٗ لَمِنَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

They said, “Who has done this to our gods? He is one of the wrongdoers indeed.”
21:60

قَالُوْا سَمِعْنَا فَتًی یَّذْكُرُهُمْ یُقَالُ لَهٗۤ اِبْرٰهِیْمُ

Some of them said, “We have heard a youth talking about them. He is called Ibrāhīm.”
21:61

قَالُوْا فَاْتُوْا بِهٖ عَلٰۤی اَعْیُنِ النَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَشْهَدُوْنَ

They said, “Then, bring him before the eyes of the people, so that they may see”.
21:62

قَالُوْۤا ءَاَنْتَ فَعَلْتَ هٰذَا بِاٰلِهَتِنَا یٰۤاِبْرٰهِیْمُ

They said, “Is it you O Ibrāhīm who has done this to our gods?”
21:63

قَالَ بَلْ فَعَلَهٗ ۖۗ كَبِیْرُهُمْ هٰذَا فَسْـَٔلُوْهُمْ اِنْ كَانُوْا یَنْطِقُوْنَ

He said, “Rather, this is done by this chief of theirs. So, ask them if they can speak.”
21:64

فَرَجَعُوْۤا اِلٰۤی اَنْفُسِهِمْ فَقَالُوْۤا اِنَّكُمْ اَنْتُمُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ

So they turned to one another and said, “In fact, you yourselves are the wrongdoers.”
21:65

ثُمَّ نُكِسُوْا عَلٰی رُءُوْسِهِمْ ۚ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا هٰۤؤُلَآءِ یَنْطِقُوْنَ

Then, hanging their heads they reversed their position (and replied to Ibrāhīm,) “You already knew that they do not speak.”
21:66

قَالَ اَفَتَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا یَنْفَعُكُمْ شَیْـًٔا وَّلَا یَضُرُّكُمْ

He said, “Do you then worship, beside Allah, what does neither benefit you in the least nor harm you?
21:67

اُفٍّ لَّكُمْ وَلِمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ ؕ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ

Fie upon you and upon what you worship other than Allah. Do you then not understand?”
21:68

قَالُوْا حَرِّقُوْهُ وَانْصُرُوْۤا اٰلِهَتَكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ فٰعِلِیْنَ

They said, “(O people) burn him and help your gods, if you are to take action.”
21:69

قُلْنَا یٰنَارُ كُوْنِیْ بَرْدًا وَّسَلٰمًا عَلٰۤی اِبْرٰهِیْمَ

We said, “O fire, be cold and safe for Ibrāhīm.”
21:70

وَاَرَادُوْا بِهٖ كَیْدًا فَجَعَلْنٰهُمُ الْاَخْسَرِیْنَ

And they intended to harm him, but We made them the worst losers.
21:71

وَنَجَّیْنٰهُ وَلُوْطًا اِلَی الْاَرْضِ الَّتِیْ بٰرَكْنَا فِیْهَا لِلْعٰلَمِیْنَ

And We rescued him and LūT towards the land we blessed for all the worlds.
21:72

وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗۤ اِسْحٰقَ ؕ وَیَعْقُوْبَ نَافِلَةً ؕ وَكُلًّا جَعَلْنَا صٰلِحِیْنَ

And We blessed him with IsHāq and Ya‘qūb as gift, and each one of them We made righteous.
21:73

وَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَىِٕمَّةً یَّهْدُوْنَ بِاَمْرِنَا وَاَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلَیْهِمْ فِعْلَ الْخَیْرٰتِ وَاِقَامَ الصَّلٰوةِ وَاِیْتَآءَ الزَّكٰوةِ ۚ وَكَانُوْا لَنَا عٰبِدِیْنَ

And We made them the Imams who guided (people) under Our command, and We inspired them to do good deeds and to establish Salāh and pay Zakāh, and Us alone they worshipped.
21:74

وَلُوْطًا اٰتَیْنٰهُ حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًا وَّنَجَّیْنٰهُ مِنَ الْقَرْیَةِ الَّتِیْ كَانَتْ تَّعْمَلُ الْخَبٰٓىِٕثَ ؕ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فٰسِقِیْنَ

As for LūT, We gave him wisdom and knowledge, and We delivered him from the town that used to do dirty deeds. Indeed, they were the people of evil, the sinners.
21:75

وَاَدْخَلْنٰهُ فِیْ رَحْمَتِنَا ؕ اِنَّهٗ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِیْنَ

And We admitted him to Our mercy. Indeed, He was of the righteous.
21:76

وَنُوْحًا اِذْ نَادٰی مِنْ قَبْلُ فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ فَنَجَّیْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗ مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِیْمِ

And (remember) NūH, when he called (for help) earlier, so We responded to him and saved him and his family from the terrible agony,
21:77

وَنَصَرْنٰهُ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِیْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا ؕ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فَاَغْرَقْنٰهُمْ اَجْمَعِیْنَ

and helped him against the people who gave the lie to Our verses. Indeed, they were the people of evil, therefore, We drowned them all.
21:78

وَدَاوٗدَ وَسُلَیْمٰنَ اِذْ یَحْكُمٰنِ فِی الْحَرْثِ اِذْ نَفَشَتْ فِیْهِ غَنَمُ الْقَوْمِ ۚ وَكُنَّا لِحُكْمِهِمْ شٰهِدِیْنَ

And (remember) Dawūd (David) and Sulaimān (Solomon), when they were adjudicating about the tillage in which the goats of other people wandered at night (and trampled it), and We were witness to their judgment.
21:79

فَفَهَّمْنٰهَا سُلَیْمٰنَ ۚ وَكُلًّا اٰتَیْنَا حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًا ؗ وَّسَخَّرْنَا مَعَ دَاوٗدَ الْجِبَالَ یُسَبِّحْنَ وَالطَّیْرَ ؕ وَكُنَّا فٰعِلِیْنَ

So, We enabled Sulaimān to understand it. And to each one of them We gave wisdom and knowledge. And with Dawūd We subjugated the mountains that pronounced tasbīH (Allah’s purity), and the birds as well. And We were the One who did (it).
21:80

وَعَلَّمْنٰهُ صَنْعَةَ لَبُوْسٍ لَّكُمْ لِتُحْصِنَكُمْ مِّنْ بَاْسِكُمْ ۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ شٰكِرُوْنَ

We taught him the skill of making armor as dress for you to protect you from what may harm you (in combat). So are you grateful?
21:81

وَلِسُلَیْمٰنَ الرِّیْحَ عَاصِفَةً تَجْرِیْ بِاَمْرِهٖۤ اِلَی الْاَرْضِ الَّتِیْ بٰرَكْنَا فِیْهَا ؕ وَكُنَّا بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عٰلِمِیْنَ

And for Sulaimān, (We subjugated) the violent wind that blew under his command to the land in which We placed Our blessings. And We were the One who knew everything.
21:82

وَمِنَ الشَّیٰطِیْنِ مَنْ یَّغُوْصُوْنَ لَهٗ وَیَعْمَلُوْنَ عَمَلًا دُوْنَ ذٰلِكَ ۚ وَكُنَّا لَهُمْ حٰفِظِیْنَ

And from the devils, (We subjugated for him) those who dived in water for him and did jobs other than that. And We were the One who kept watch over them.
21:83

وَاَیُّوْبَ اِذْ نَادٰی رَبَّهٗۤ اَنِّیْ مَسَّنِیَ الضُّرُّ وَاَنْتَ اَرْحَمُ الرّٰحِمِیْنَ

And (remember) Ayyūb (Job), when he called his Lord saying, “Here I am, afflicted by pain and You are the most merciful of all the merciful.”
21:84

فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ فَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهٖ مِنْ ضُرٍّ وَّاٰتَیْنٰهُ اَهْلَهٗ وَمِثْلَهُمْ مَّعَهُمْ رَحْمَةً مِّنْ عِنْدِنَا وَذِكْرٰی لِلْعٰبِدِیْنَ

So, We answered his prayer and removed whatever pain he had, and gave him (back) his family and the like thereof along with them, as a mercy from Our own Self and as a lesson for the worshippers.
21:85

وَاِسْمٰعِیْلَ وَاِدْرِیْسَ وَذَا الْكِفْلِ ؕ كُلٌّ مِّنَ الصّٰبِرِیْنَ

And (remember) Ismā‘īl and Idrīs and Dhul-Kifl. Each one of them was of those who observed patience.
21:86

وَاَدْخَلْنٰهُمْ فِیْ رَحْمَتِنَا ؕ اِنَّهُمْ مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِیْنَ

And We admitted them to Our mercy. Surely, they were of the righteous.
21:87

وَذَا النُّوْنِ اِذْ ذَّهَبَ مُغَاضِبًا فَظَنَّ اَنْ لَّنْ نَّقْدِرَ عَلَیْهِ فَنَادٰی فِی الظُّلُمٰتِ اَنْ لَّاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّاۤ اَنْتَ سُبْحٰنَكَ ۖۗ اِنِّیْ كُنْتُ مِنَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

And (remember) Dhunnūn (the man of the fish, namely Yūnus X), when he walked away in anger and thought that We would never put him to trouble. Then, he called (Us) in depths of darkness saying, “There is no god but You. Pure are You. Indeed I was among the wrongdoers”.
21:88

فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ ۙ وَنَجَّیْنٰهُ مِنَ الْغَمِّ ؕ وَكَذٰلِكَ نُـجِی الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

So We responded to him and rescued him from the distress. And this is how We rescue the believers.
21:89

وَزَكَرِیَّاۤ اِذْ نَادٰی رَبَّهٗ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِیْ فَرْدًا وَّاَنْتَ خَیْرُ الْوٰرِثِیْنَ

And (remember) Zakariyyā when he called his Lord, “My Lord, do not leave me alone and You are the best of inheritors.”
21:90

فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ ؗ وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗ یَحْیٰی وَاَصْلَحْنَا لَهٗ زَوْجَهٗ ؕ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا یُسٰرِعُوْنَ فِی الْخَیْرٰتِ وَیَدْعُوْنَنَا رَغَبًا وَّرَهَبًا ؕ وَكَانُوْا لَنَا خٰشِعِیْنَ

So, We responded to him and gave him YaHyā and made his wife good for him. They used to race towards the good deeds and call Us with hope and fear; and they were humble to Us.
21:91

وَالَّتِیْۤ اَحْصَنَتْ فَرْجَهَا فَنَفَخْنَا فِیْهَا مِنْ رُّوْحِنَا وَجَعَلْنٰهَا وَابْنَهَاۤ اٰیَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِیْنَ

And (remember) her who protected her private part (that is, Maryam). So, We blew in her (a life) through Our Spirit, and made her and her son (‘Īsā X) a sign for all the worlds.
21:92

اِنَّ هٰذِهٖۤ اُمَّتُكُمْ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةً ۖؗ وَّاَنَا رَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوْنِ

Surely, this is the fraternity of your Faith, a single Faith, and I am your Lord; so worship Me.
21:93

وَتَقَطَّعُوْۤا اَمْرَهُمْ بَیْنَهُمْ ؕ كُلٌّ اِلَیْنَا رٰجِعُوْنَ

But they have separated their ways from one another. All of them have to return to Us.
21:94

فَمَنْ یَّعْمَلْ مِنَ الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَا كُفْرَانَ لِسَعْیِهٖ ۚ وَاِنَّا لَهٗ كٰتِبُوْنَ

So, whoever does righteous deeds, while he is a believer, his effort will not be rejected, and We are to put it on record.
21:95

وَحَرٰمٌ عَلٰی قَرْیَةٍ اَهْلَكْنٰهَاۤ اَنَّهُمْ لَا یَرْجِعُوْنَ

It is banned for (the people of) a town that We destroyed that they come back
21:96

حَتّٰۤی اِذَا فُتِحَتْ یَاْجُوْجُ وَمَاْجُوْجُ وَهُمْ مِّنْ كُلِّ حَدَبٍ یَّنْسِلُوْنَ

until when the Ya’jūj and Ma’jūj (Gog and Magog) are released, while they run down from every height,
21:97

وَاقْتَرَبَ الْوَعْدُ الْحَقُّ فَاِذَا هِیَ شَاخِصَةٌ اَبْصَارُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا ؕ یٰوَیْلَنَا قَدْ كُنَّا فِیْ غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هٰذَا بَلْ كُنَّا ظٰلِمِیْنَ

and the True Promise draws near, then it will so happen that the eyes of the disbelievers shall remain upraised (in terror, and they will say,) “Alas to us! We were in negligence about this; rather we were transgressors.”
21:98

اِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ حَصَبُ جَهَنَّمَ ؕ اَنْتُمْ لَهَا وٰرِدُوْنَ

Surely, you and whatever you worship other than Allah are the fuel of Jahannam.. There you will have to arrive.
21:99

لَوْ كَانَ هٰۤؤُلَآءِ اٰلِهَةً مَّا وَرَدُوْهَا ؕ وَكُلٌّ فِیْهَا خٰلِدُوْنَ

Had they been gods, they would not have arrived at it, and all of them will remain there forever.
21:100

لَهُمْ فِیْهَا زَفِیْرٌ وَّهُمْ فِیْهَا لَا یَسْمَعُوْنَ

For them, there will be screams in it and they will not hear.
21:101

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ سَبَقَتْ لَهُمْ مِّنَّا الْحُسْنٰۤی ۙ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ عَنْهَا مُبْعَدُوْنَ

As for those for whom the good (news) from Us has come earlier, they will be kept far away from it.
21:102

لَا یَسْمَعُوْنَ حَسِیْسَهَا ۚ وَهُمْ فِیْ مَا اشْتَهَتْ اَنْفُسُهُمْ خٰلِدُوْنَ

They will not hear the slightest of its sound, and they will remain forever in what their souls desire.
21:103

لَا یَحْزُنُهُمُ الْفَزَعُ الْاَكْبَرُ وَتَتَلَقّٰىهُمُ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ ؕ هٰذَا یَوْمُكُمُ الَّذِیْ كُنْتُمْ تُوْعَدُوْنَ

They shall not be grieved by the Biggest Panic, and the angels shall receive them (saying), “This is your day that you had been promised”
21:104

یَوْمَ نَطْوِی السَّمَآءَ كَطَیِّ السِّجِلِّ لِلْكُتُبِ ؕ كَمَا بَدَاْنَاۤ اَوَّلَ خَلْقٍ نُّعِیْدُهٗ ؕ وَعْدًا عَلَیْنَا ؕ اِنَّا كُنَّا فٰعِلِیْنَ

- the Day when We roll up the sky like a scroll rolls up the writings. Just as We originated the first creation, so We shall bring it back again - a promise (undertaken to be binding) on Us. We are sure to do it.
21:105

وَلَقَدْ كَتَبْنَا فِی الزَّبُوْرِ مِنْ بَعْدِ الذِّكْرِ اَنَّ الْاَرْضَ یَرِثُهَا عِبَادِیَ الصّٰلِحُوْنَ

And We have written in Zabūr (Psalms) after the advice that the land will be inherited by My righteous slaves.
21:106

اِنَّ فِیْ هٰذَا لَبَلٰغًا لِّقَوْمٍ عٰبِدِیْنَ

Surely, in this (Qur’ān) there is a message conveyed to a people who worship (Allah).
21:107

وَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنٰكَ اِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِیْنَ

And We have not sent you but as mercy for all the worlds.
21:108

قُلْ اِنَّمَا یُوْحٰۤی اِلَیَّ اَنَّمَاۤ اِلٰهُكُمْ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌ ۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّسْلِمُوْنَ

Say, “What is revealed to me is simply that your God is One God. So do you submit?”
21:109

فَاِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ اٰذَنْتُكُمْ عَلٰی سَوَآءٍ ؕ وَاِنْ اَدْرِیْۤ اَقَرِیْبٌ اَمْ بَعِیْدٌ مَّا تُوْعَدُوْنَ

But, if they turn away, then say (to them), “I have warned you all alike, and I do not know whether what you have been warned of is near or far.
21:110

اِنَّهٗ یَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ وَیَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْتُمُوْنَ

Surely, He knows what is spoken openly and He knows what you conceal.
21:111

وَاِنْ اَدْرِیْ لَعَلَّهٗ فِتْنَةٌ لَّكُمْ وَمَتَاعٌ اِلٰی حِیْنٍ

And I do not know; perhaps it is a trial for you and an enjoyment for a while.”
21:112

قٰلَ رَبِّ احْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ ؕ وَرَبُّنَا الرَّحْمٰنُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلٰی مَا تَصِفُوْنَ

He (Our Messenger) said, “My Lord, judge with truth. And Our Lord is the RaHmān (All-Merciful), the One whose help is sought against what you describe.

22. Al-Hajj

22:1

یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوْا رَبَّكُمْ ۚ اِنَّ زَلْزَلَةَ السَّاعَةِ شَیْءٌ عَظِیْمٌ

O mankind, fear your Lord. Indeed the quake of the (destined) Hour is something terrible.
22:2

یَوْمَ تَرَوْنَهَا تَذْهَلُ كُلُّ مُرْضِعَةٍ عَمَّاۤ اَرْضَعَتْ وَتَضَعُ كُلُّ ذَاتِ حَمْلٍ حَمْلَهَا وَتَرَی النَّاسَ سُكٰرٰی وَمَا هُمْ بِسُكٰرٰی وَلٰكِنَّ عَذَابَ اللّٰهِ شَدِیْدٌ

The day you will see it, every suckling female will forget that which she suckles, and every female having pregnancy shall abort her fetus, and you will see people as if they are drunk, while they are not drunk, but Allah’s torment is (so) severe.
22:3

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ یُّجَادِلُ فِی اللّٰهِ بِغَیْرِ عِلْمٍ وَّیَتَّبِعُ كُلَّ شَیْطٰنٍ مَّرِیْدٍ

Among the people there is one who debates about Allah without knowledge, and follows every rebellious Satan,
22:4

كُتِبَ عَلَیْهِ اَنَّهٗ مَنْ تَوَلَّاهُ فَاَنَّهٗ یُضِلُّهٗ وَیَهْدِیْهِ اِلٰی عَذَابِ السَّعِیْرِ

about whom it is destined that if someone takes him for friend, he will misguide him and lead him to the torment of the Fire.
22:5

یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّاسُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ فِیْ رَیْبٍ مِّنَ الْبَعْثِ فَاِنَّا خَلَقْنٰكُمْ مِّنْ تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ نُّطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ مُّضْغَةٍ مُّخَلَّقَةٍ وَّغَیْرِ مُخَلَّقَةٍ لِّنُبَیِّنَ لَكُمْ ؕ وَنُقِرُّ فِی الْاَرْحَامِ مَا نَشَآءُ اِلٰۤی اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّی ثُمَّ نُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلًا ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُوْۤا اَشُدَّكُمْ ۚ وَمِنْكُمْ مَّنْ یُّتَوَفّٰی وَمِنْكُمْ مَّنْ یُّرَدُّ اِلٰۤی اَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ لِكَیْلَا یَعْلَمَ مِنْ بَعْدِ عِلْمٍ شَیْـًٔا ؕ وَتَرَی الْاَرْضَ هَامِدَةً فَاِذَاۤ اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَیْهَا الْمَآءَ اهْتَزَّتْ وَرَبَتْ وَاَنْۢبَتَتْ مِنْ كُلِّ زَوْجٍ بَهِیْجٍ

O mankind, if you are in doubt about Resurrection, then (recall that) We created you from dust, then from a drop of semen, then from a clot, then from a piece of flesh, either shaped or unshaped, so that We manifest (Our power) to you.We retain in the wombs whatever We will to a specified term. Then We bring you out as babies, then (We nourish you) so that you reach your maturity. And among you there is one who dies, and among you there is one who is carried to the worst part of the age, so that he knows nothing even after having knowledge.And you see the land dry. Then once We send down water on it, it stirs and swells and puts forth every pleasant pair (of vegetation).
22:6

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْحَقُّ وَاَنَّهٗ یُحْیِ الْمَوْتٰی وَاَنَّهٗ عَلٰی كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ

That is because Allah is the truth, and that He gives life to the dead, and that He is powerful to do everything,
22:7

وَّاَنَّ السَّاعَةَ اٰتِیَةٌ لَّا رَیْبَ فِیْهَا ۙ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ یَبْعَثُ مَنْ فِی الْقُبُوْرِ

and that the Hour (of Doom) has to come, in which there is no doubt, and that Allah will raise again all those in the graves.
22:8

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ یُّجَادِلُ فِی اللّٰهِ بِغَیْرِ عِلْمٍ وَّلَا هُدًی وَّلَا كِتٰبٍ مُّنِیْرٍ

Among men there is one who debates about Allah with no knowledge, no guidance and no enlightening book,
22:9

ثَانِیَ عِطْفِهٖ لِیُضِلَّ عَنْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ ؕ لَهٗ فِی الدُّنْیَا خِزْیٌ وَّنُذِیْقُهٗ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ عَذَابَ الْحَرِیْقِ

turning his side away to lead (people) astray from the way of Allah. For him there is disgrace in this world, and We will have him taste the punishment of Fire on the Day of Judgment
22:10

ذٰلِكَ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ یَدٰكَ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ لَیْسَ بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلْعَبِیْدِ

(and will say to him) “All this is due to what your hands sent ahead, and that Allah is not unjust to His servants.”
22:11

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ یَّعْبُدُ اللّٰهَ عَلٰی حَرْفٍ ۚ فَاِنْ اَصَابَهٗ خَیْرُ طْمَاَنَّ بِهٖ ۚ وَاِنْ اَصَابَتْهُ فِتْنَةُ نْقَلَبَ عَلٰی وَجْهِهٖ ۚ۫ خَسِرَ الدُّنْیَا وَالْاٰخِرَةَ ؕ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الْخُسْرَانُ الْمُبِیْنُ

And among men there is one who worships Allah (standing) on the verge: so if some good thing happens to him, he is satisfied with it, and if a trial befalls him, he turns his face back. He loses both this world and the Hereafter. That is the manifest loss.
22:12

یَدْعُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا یَضُرُّهٗ وَمَا لَا یَنْفَعُهٗ ؕ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلٰلُ الْبَعِیْدُ

He prays to someone, instead of Allah, who can neither harm him nor benefit him. That is the error that takes him too far from the right path.
22:13

یَدْعُوْا لَمَنْ ضَرُّهٗۤ اَقْرَبُ مِنْ نَّفْعِهٖ ؕ لَبِئْسَ الْمَوْلٰی وَلَبِئْسَ الْعَشِیْرُ

He, rather, prays to someone whose harm is more likely than his benefit. Wretched is such a patron and wretched is such a companion.
22:14

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُدْخِلُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَفْعَلُ مَا یُرِیْدُ

Surely, Allah will admit those who believe and do good deeds into gardens beneath which rivers flow. Surely Allah does what He intends.
22:15

مَنْ كَانَ یَظُنُّ اَنْ لَّنْ یَّنْصُرَهُ اللّٰهُ فِی الدُّنْیَا وَالْاٰخِرَةِ فَلْیَمْدُدْ بِسَبَبٍ اِلَی السَّمَآءِ ثُمَّ لْیَقْطَعْ فَلْیَنْظُرْ هَلْ یُذْهِبَنَّ كَیْدُهٗ مَا یَغِیْظُ

If someone thinks that Allah will never help him (the prophet) in this world and in the Hereafter, he should stretch a rope to the sky, then cut (Allah’s communication) off (from the prophet) and see whether his effort can really remove what irritates (him).
22:16

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ اٰیٰتٍ بَیِّنٰتٍ ۙ وَّاَنَّ اللّٰهَ یَهْدِیْ مَنْ یُّرِیْدُ

And this is how We have sent it (the Qur’ān) down as clear signs, and the fact is that Allah leads whom He wills to the right path.
22:17

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَالَّذِیْنَ هَادُوْا وَالصّٰبِـِٕیْنَ وَالنَّصٰرٰی وَالْمَجُوْسَ وَالَّذِیْنَ اَشْرَكُوْۤا ۖۗ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَفْصِلُ بَیْنَهُمْ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰی كُلِّ شَیْءٍ شَهِیْدٌ

As for those who believe and the Jews and the Sabians and the Christians and the Magians and those who ascribe partners to Allah, Allah will judge between them on the Day of Judgment. Surely Allah is witness to every thing.
22:18

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ یَسْجُدُ لَهٗ مَنْ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَنْ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَالشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ وَالنُّجُوْمُ وَالْجِبَالُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَآبُّ وَكَثِیْرٌ مِّنَ النَّاسِ ؕ وَكَثِیْرٌ حَقَّ عَلَیْهِ الْعَذَابُ ؕ وَمَنْ یُّهِنِ اللّٰهُ فَمَا لَهٗ مِنْ مُّكْرِمٍ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَفْعَلُ مَا یَشَآءُ

Have you not seen that to Allah prostrate all those in the skies and all those on the earth, and the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the animals and many from mankind? And there are many on whom punishment has become due. And the one whom Allah puts to disgrace, there is none to give him respect. Surely Allah does what He wills.
22:19

هٰذٰنِ خَصْمٰنِ اخْتَصَمُوْا فِیْ رَبِّهِمْ ؗ فَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا قُطِّعَتْ لَهُمْ ثِیَابٌ مِّنْ نَّارٍ ؕ یُصَبُّ مِنْ فَوْقِ رُءُوْسِهِمُ الْحَمِیْمُ

These are two opponents who have disputed about their Lord. As for those who disbelieve, garments from fire shall be tailored for them, and boiling water shall be poured from over their heads
22:20

یُصْهَرُ بِهٖ مَا فِیْ بُطُوْنِهِمْ وَالْجُلُوْدُ

whereby everything in their bellies, as well as the skins, will be melted.
22:21

وَلَهُمْ مَّقَامِعُ مِنْ حَدِیْدٍ

And for them there are hooked rods of iron.
22:22

كُلَّمَاۤ اَرَادُوْۤا اَنْ یَّخْرُجُوْا مِنْهَا مِنْ غَمٍّ اُعِیْدُوْا فِیْهَا ۗ وَذُوْقُوْا عَذَابَ الْحَرِیْقِ

Whenever, in their anguish, they will intend to come out of it (the fire), they will be turned back to it, and (it will be said to them,) “Taste the punishment of burning”.
22:23

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُدْخِلُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ یُحَلَّوْنَ فِیْهَا مِنْ اَسَاوِرَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَّلُؤْلُؤًا ؕ وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِیْهَا حَرِیْرٌ

Surely Allah will admit those who believe and do good deeds to gardens beneath which rivers flow. They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and with pearls, and their dress therein will be (of) silk.
22:24

وَهُدُوْۤا اِلَی الطَّیِّبِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ ۖۚ وَهُدُوْۤا اِلٰی صِرَاطِ الْحَمِیْدِ

Guided they were to the good word (of faith) and guided they were to the path of (Allah,) the Praised One.
22:25

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَیَصُدُّوْنَ عَنْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ وَالْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ الَّذِیْ جَعَلْنٰهُ لِلنَّاسِ سَوَآءَ لْعَاكِفُ فِیْهِ وَالْبَادِ ؕ وَمَنْ یُّرِدْ فِیْهِ بِاِلْحَادٍ بِظُلْمٍ نُّذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابٍ اَلِیْمٍ

Surely (We will punish) those who disbelieve and prevent (people) from the way of Allah and from Al-Masjid-ul-Harām (the Sacred Mosque), which We have made for all men, where residents and visitors are all equal. And whoever intends therein to commit deviation with injustice, We will make him taste a painful punishment.
22:26

وَاِذْ بَوَّاْنَا لِاِبْرٰهِیْمَ مَكَانَ الْبَیْتِ اَنْ لَّا تُشْرِكْ بِیْ شَیْـًٔا وَّطَهِّرْ بَیْتِیَ لِلطَّآىِٕفِیْنَ وَالْقَآىِٕمِیْنَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُوْدِ

And (remember) when We pointed out for Ibrāhīm the place of the House (of Allah) saying, “Do not associate anything with Me as My partner, and purify My House for those who make Tawāf (circumambulation around it), and those who perform Qiyām (standing up in worship) and those who perform Rukū‘ (bowing down) and Sujūd (prostration),
22:27

وَاَذِّنْ فِی النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ یَاْتُوْكَ رِجَالًا وَّعَلٰی كُلِّ ضَامِرٍ یَّاْتِیْنَ مِنْ كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِیْقٍ

and announce among people about (the obligation of) Hajj, so that they should come to you on foot, and on every camel turned lean, traveling through every distant hilly pathway,
22:28

لِّیَشْهَدُوْا مَنَافِعَ لَهُمْ وَیَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللّٰهِ فِیْۤ اَیَّامٍ مَّعْلُوْمٰتٍ عَلٰی مَا رَزَقَهُمْ مِّنْ بَهِیْمَةِ الْاَنْعَامِ ۚ فَكُلُوْا مِنْهَا وَاَطْعِمُوا الْبَآىِٕسَ الْفَقِیْرَ

so that they witness benefits for them, and recite Allah’s name in specified days, over the provision He gave them from the cattle. “So, eat thereof and feed the distressed, the poor.”
22:29

ثُمَّ لْیَقْضُوْا تَفَثَهُمْ وَلْیُوْفُوْا نُذُوْرَهُمْ وَلْیَطَّوَّفُوْا بِالْبَیْتِ الْعَتِیْقِ

Then, they must remove their dirt, and fulfill their vows, and make Tawāf of the Ancient House.”
22:30

ذٰلِكَ ۗ وَمَنْ یُّعَظِّمْ حُرُمٰتِ اللّٰهِ فَهُوَ خَیْرٌ لَّهٗ عِنْدَ رَبِّهٖ ؕ وَاُحِلَّتْ لَكُمُ الْاَنْعَامُ اِلَّا مَا یُتْلٰی عَلَیْكُمْ فَاجْتَنِبُوا الرِّجْسَ مِنَ الْاَوْثَانِ وَاجْتَنِبُوْا قَوْلَ الزُّوْرِ

Having said that, whoever observes reverence of the things sanctified by Allah, it is good for him with his Lord. And permitted to you are the cattle, except those mentioned to you through recitation (of the verses). So refrain from the filth of the idols and refrain from a word of falsehood,
22:31

حُنَفَآءَ لِلّٰهِ غَیْرَ مُشْرِكِیْنَ بِهٖ ؕ وَمَنْ یُّشْرِكْ بِاللّٰهِ فَكَاَنَّمَا خَرَّ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ فَتَخْطَفُهُ الطَّیْرُ اَوْ تَهْوِیْ بِهِ الرِّیْحُ فِیْ مَكَانٍ سَحِیْقٍ

standing upright for (the obedience of) Allah, not ascribing any partner to Him. Whoever ascribes a partner to Allah, it is as if he falls down from the sky, and either the birds snatch him, or the wind drives him away to a far off place.
22:32

ذٰلِكَ ۗ وَمَنْ یُّعَظِّمْ شَعَآىِٕرَ اللّٰهِ فَاِنَّهَا مِنْ تَقْوَی الْقُلُوْبِ

Having said that, if one observes the sanctity of the symbols of Allah, then such things emanate from the piety of the hearts.
22:33

لَكُمْ فِیْهَا مَنَافِعُ اِلٰۤی اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّی ثُمَّ مَحِلُّهَاۤ اِلَی الْبَیْتِ الْعَتِیْقِ

And for you there are benefits in them (the cattle) up to a specified time. Then their place of sacrifice is by the Ancient House.
22:34

وَلِكُلِّ اُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنْسَكًا لِّیَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللّٰهِ عَلٰی مَا رَزَقَهُمْ مِّنْ بَهِیْمَةِ الْاَنْعَامِ ؕ فَاِلٰهُكُمْ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌ فَلَهٗۤ اَسْلِمُوْا ؕ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُخْبِتِیْنَ

For every Ummah (religious community) We prescribed the act of sacrifice, so that they recite Allah’s name over the provision He gave them from the cattle. So, your God is One God. Therefore, to Him alone you must submit. And give good news to those who turn to Him with humbleness -
22:35

الَّذِیْنَ اِذَا ذُكِرَ اللّٰهُ وَجِلَتْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ وَالصّٰبِرِیْنَ عَلٰی مَاۤ اَصَابَهُمْ وَالْمُقِیْمِی الصَّلٰوةِ ۙ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنٰهُمْ یُنْفِقُوْنَ

those whose hearts are filled with awe when Allah is remembered, and who observe patience against whatever befalls them, and who are steadfast in Salāh, and who spend (in the way of Allah) out of what We have given to them.
22:36

وَالْبُدْنَ جَعَلْنٰهَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ شَعَآىِٕرِ اللّٰهِ لَكُمْ فِیْهَا خَیْرٌ ۖۗ فَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللّٰهِ عَلَیْهَا صَوَآفَّ ۚ فَاِذَا وَجَبَتْ جُنُوْبُهَا فَكُلُوْا مِنْهَا وَاَطْعِمُوا الْقَانِعَ وَالْمُعْتَرَّ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ سَخَّرْنٰهَا لَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ

The big animals of sacrifice (like camels and cows) are made by Us among the symbols of Allah for you, in which there is much good for your benefit. So recite the name of Allah over them as they are lined up (for sacrifice). Then, once their flanks fall down (after slaughter), eat of them and feed the one who is content and the one who wishes to receive. Thus We have made them (the animals) subjugated to you, so that you may be grateful.
22:37

لَنْ یَّنَالَ اللّٰهَ لُحُوْمُهَا وَلَا دِمَآؤُهَا وَلٰكِنْ یَّنَالُهُ التَّقْوٰی مِنْكُمْ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ سَخَّرَهَا لَكُمْ لِتُكَبِّرُوا اللّٰهَ عَلٰی مَا هَدٰىكُمْ ؕ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ

It is neither their flesh nor their blood that reaches Allah, but what does reach Him is the taqwā (the sense of obedience) on your part. Thus He has made them (the animals) subjugated to you, so that you proclaim Allah’s glory for the guidance He gave you. And give good news to those who are good in their deeds.
22:38

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُدٰفِعُ عَنِ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُحِبُّ كُلَّ خَوَّانٍ كَفُوْرٍ

Surely, Allah defends those who believe. Allah does not love any treacherous, ungrateful.
22:39

اُذِنَ لِلَّذِیْنَ یُقٰتَلُوْنَ بِاَنَّهُمْ ظُلِمُوْا ؕ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰی نَصْرِهِمْ لَقَدِیْرُ

Permission (to fight) is given to those against whom fighting is launched, because they have been wronged, and Allah is powerful to give them victory.
22:40

لَّذِیْنَ اُخْرِجُوْا مِنْ دِیَارِهِمْ بِغَیْرِ حَقٍّ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ یَّقُوْلُوْا رَبُّنَا اللّٰهُ ؕ وَلَوْلَا دَفْعُ اللّٰهِ النَّاسَ بَعْضَهُمْ بِبَعْضٍ لَّهُدِّمَتْ صَوَامِعُ وَبِیَعٌ وَّصَلَوٰتٌ وَّمَسٰجِدُ یُذْكَرُ فِیْهَا اسْمُ اللّٰهِ كَثِیْرًا ؕ وَلَیَنْصُرَنَّ اللّٰهُ مَنْ یَّنْصُرُهٗ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَقَوِیٌّ عَزِیْزٌ

(They are) the ones who were expelled from their homes without any just reason, except that they say “Our Lord is Allah.” Had Allah not been repelling some people by means of some others, the monasteries, the churches, the synagogues and the mosques where Allah’s name is abundantly recited would have been demolished. Allah will definitely help those who help Him (by defending the religion prescribed by Him.) Surely Allah is Powerful, Mighty.
22:41

اَلَّذِیْنَ اِنْ مَّكَّنّٰهُمْ فِی الْاَرْضِ اَقَامُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاٰتَوُا الزَّكٰوةَ وَاَمَرُوْا بِالْمَعْرُوْفِ وَنَهَوْا عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ ؕ وَلِلّٰهِ عَاقِبَةُ الْاُمُوْرِ

(The ones who help Allah are) those who, when We give them power in the land, establish Salāh, pay Zakāh, bid what is Fair and forbid what is Unfair. And with Allah lies the fate of all matters.
22:42

وَاِنْ یُّكَذِّبُوْكَ فَقَدْ كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوْحٍ وَّعَادٌ وَّثَمُوْدُ

And if they reject you, so did reject the people of NūH (Noah) and ‘Ād and Thamūd,
22:43

وَقَوْمُ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ وَقَوْمُ لُوْطٍ

and the people of Ibrāhīm and the people of LūT (Lot),
22:44

وَّاَصْحٰبُ مَدْیَنَ ۚ وَكُذِّبَ مُوْسٰی فَاَمْلَیْتُ لِلْكٰفِرِیْنَ ثُمَّ اَخَذْتُهُمْ ۚ فَكَیْفَ كَانَ نَكِیْرِ

and the people of Madyan as well. Mūsā was (also) rejected. So, I gave some respite to the disbelievers, then seized them. So how was My censure?
22:45

فَكَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ قَرْیَةٍ اَهْلَكْنٰهَا وَهِیَ ظَالِمَةٌ فَهِیَ خَاوِیَةٌ عَلٰی عُرُوْشِهَا وَبِئْرٍ مُّعَطَّلَةٍ وَّقَصْرٍ مَّشِیْدٍ

How many towns have We destroyed, as they were wrongdoers! So, they are fallen down on their roofs, and (how many a) deserted well and (how many a) well-built castle!
22:46

اَفَلَمْ یَسِیْرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ فَتَكُوْنَ لَهُمْ قُلُوْبٌ یَّعْقِلُوْنَ بِهَاۤ اَوْ اٰذَانٌ یَّسْمَعُوْنَ بِهَا ۚ فَاِنَّهَا لَا تَعْمَی الْاَبْصَارُ وَلٰكِنْ تَعْمَی الْقُلُوْبُ الَّتِیْ فِی الصُّدُوْرِ

Have they not, then, traveled on earth so that they should have had hearts to understand with, or ears to listen with? The fact is that it is not the eyes that turn blind, but what turns blind is the hearts contained in the chests.
22:47

وَیَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَكَ بِالْعَذَابِ وَلَنْ یُّخْلِفَ اللّٰهُ وَعْدَهٗ ؕ وَاِنَّ یَوْمًا عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ كَاَلْفِ سَنَةٍ مِّمَّا تَعُدُّوْنَ

They ask you to bring the punishment sooner, while Allah will never go back on His promise. In fact, one day with your Lord is like one thousand years according to your calculation.
22:48

وَكَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ قَرْیَةٍ اَمْلَیْتُ لَهَا وَهِیَ ظَالِمَةٌ ثُمَّ اَخَذْتُهَا ۚ وَاِلَیَّ الْمَصِیْرُ

And how many towns were there to whom I allowed respite, while they were wrongdoers, then I seized them. And to Me is the final return.
22:49

قُلْ یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّاسُ اِنَّمَاۤ اَنَا لَكُمْ نَذِیْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ

Say, “O people, I am no more than a plain warner for you.
22:50

فَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَهُمْ مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَّرِزْقٌ كَرِیْمٌ

So those who come to believe and do good deeds, for them there is forgiveness and dignified provision.
22:51

وَالَّذِیْنَ سَعَوْا فِیْۤ اٰیٰتِنَا مُعٰجِزِیْنَ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ اَصْحٰبُ الْجَحِیْمِ

As for those who strive against Our signs, trying to defeat (the prophet or the believers), they are the people of the Fire.”
22:52

وَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ وَّلَا نَبِیٍّ اِلَّاۤ اِذَا تَمَنّٰۤی اَلْقَی الشَّیْطٰنُ فِیْۤ اُمْنِیَّتِهٖ ۚ فَیَنْسَخُ اللّٰهُ مَا یُلْقِی الشَّیْطٰنُ ثُمَّ یُحْكِمُ اللّٰهُ اٰیٰتِهٖ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ عَلِیْمٌ حَكِیْمٌ

We did not send any messenger before you nor a prophet, but (he faced a situation that) when he recited (the revelation), the Satan cast (doubts in the hearts of his opponents) about what he recited. So, Allah nullifies what the Satan casts, then Allah makes His verses firm, and Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise
22:53

لِّیَجْعَلَ مَا یُلْقِی الشَّیْطٰنُ فِتْنَةً لِّلَّذِیْنَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ وَّالْقَاسِیَةِ قُلُوْبُهُمْ ؕ وَاِنَّ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ لَفِیْ شِقَاقٍ بَعِیْدٍ

(All this is allowed to be done) so that He may make what Satan casts a trial for those in whose hearts there is a disease, and whose hearts are hard;-and surely the wrongdoers are in the utmost antagonism-
22:54

وَّلِیَعْلَمَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ اَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ فَیُؤْمِنُوْا بِهٖ فَتُخْبِتَ لَهٗ قُلُوْبُهُمْ ؕ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَهَادِ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اِلٰی صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ

and so that those who have been given knowledge may know that it (i.e. the revelation recited by the prophet) is the truth from your Lord, and they may believe in it and their hearts may become humble towards it. Allah is the Guide of the believers to the straight path.
22:55

وَلَا یَزَالُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا فِیْ مِرْیَةٍ مِّنْهُ حَتّٰی تَاْتِیَهُمُ السَّاعَةُ بَغْتَةً اَوْ یَاْتِیَهُمْ عَذَابُ یَوْمٍ عَقِیْمٍ

Those who disbelieve will remain in doubt about it (the Qur’ān) forever, until the Hour (of Judgment) comes upon them suddenly, or there comes to them the punishment of a barren day.
22:56

اَلْمُلْكُ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ لِّلّٰهِ ؕ یَحْكُمُ بَیْنَهُمْ ؕ فَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ فِیْ جَنّٰتِ النَّعِیْمِ

The kingdom, on that day, is for Allah. He will judge between them. So, those who believed and did good deeds shall be in gardens of bliss.
22:57

وَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَكَذَّبُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا فَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِیْنٌ

As for those who disbelieved and rejected Our signs, they are the ones for whom there is a humiliating punishment.
22:58

وَالَّذِیْنَ هَاجَرُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ قُتِلُوْۤا اَوْ مَاتُوْا لَیَرْزُقَنَّهُمُ اللّٰهُ رِزْقًا حَسَنًا ؕ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَهُوَ خَیْرُ الرّٰزِقِیْنَ

Those who left their homeland in the way of Allah, then were slain or died, Allah will certainly give them a good provision, and surely, Allah is the best provider.
22:59

لَیُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ مُّدْخَلًا یَّرْضَوْنَهٗ ؕ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَعَلِیْمٌ حَلِیْمٌ

He will definitely admit them to an entrance they will be pleased with, and Allah is surely All-Knowing, Forbearing.
22:60

ذٰلِكَ ۚ وَمَنْ عَاقَبَ بِمِثْلِ مَا عُوْقِبَ بِهٖ ثُمَّ بُغِیَ عَلَیْهِ لَیَنْصُرَنَّهُ اللّٰهُ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَعَفُوٌّ غَفُوْرٌ

Having said this, whoever afflicts (someone) with a punishment equal to what he was afflicted with (by the latter), and still he (the former) is (again) subjected to aggression (by the latter), Allah will certainly help him. Indeed, Allah is Most-Pardoning, Most-Forgiving.
22:61

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ یُوْلِجُ الَّیْلَ فِی النَّهَارِ وَیُوْلِجُ النَّهَارَ فِی الَّیْلِ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ سَمِیْعٌ بَصِیْرٌ

That is because Allah makes night enter into the day and makes day enter into the night and that Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
22:62

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْحَقُّ وَاَنَّ مَا یَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ هُوَ الْبَاطِلُ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْعَلِیُّ الْكَبِیْرُ

That is because Allah is the truth and that whatever they invoke beside Him is false and that Allah is the High, the Great.
22:63

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ اَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً ؗ فَتُصْبِحُ الْاَرْضُ مُخْضَرَّةً ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَطِیْفٌ خَبِیْرٌ

Did you not see that Allah has sent down water from the sky, whereby the land becomes green? Surely, Allah is All-Kind, All-Aware.
22:64

لَهٗ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِی الْاَرْضِ ؕ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَهُوَ الْغَنِیُّ الْحَمِیْدُ

To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth, and surely Allah is the All-Independent, Ever-Praised.
22:65

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ سَخَّرَ لَكُمْ مَّا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَالْفُلْكَ تَجْرِیْ فِی الْبَحْرِ بِاَمْرِهٖ ؕ وَیُمْسِكُ السَّمَآءَ اَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَی الْاَرْضِ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِهٖ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوْفٌ رَّحِیْمٌ

Did you not see that Allah has subjugated to you everything on the earth, and the ships that sail at sea with His command? And He holds the sky so as it cannot fall on the earth except with His permission. Surely Allah is Very-Kind to the people, Very-Merciful.
22:66

وَهُوَ الَّذِیْۤ اَحْیَاكُمْ ؗ ثُمَّ یُمِیْتُكُمْ ثُمَّ یُحْیِیْكُمْ ؕ اِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ لَكَفُوْرٌ

He is the One who gave life to you, then He brings death to you, then He will give you life (again). Surely, man is very ungrateful.
22:67

لِكُلِّ اُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنْسَكًا هُمْ نَاسِكُوْهُ فَلَا یُنَازِعُنَّكَ فِی الْاَمْرِ وَادْعُ اِلٰی رَبِّكَ ؕ اِنَّكَ لَعَلٰی هُدًی مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ

For every Ummah (religious community) We have appointed a way of worship they are to observe. Therefore, they should never quarrel with you in the matter. And do call (them) to your Lord. Surely, you are on straight Guidance.
22:68

وَاِنْ جٰدَلُوْكَ فَقُلِ اللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ

And if they dispute with you, say (to them), “Allah is the best aware of what you do.”
22:69

اَللّٰهُ یَحْكُمُ بَیْنَكُمْ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ فِیْمَا كُنْتُمْ فِیْهِ تَخْتَلِفُوْنَ

Allah will judge between you, on the Day of Judgment, about what you used to dispute.
22:70

اَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ یَعْلَمُ مَا فِی السَّمَآءِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ فِیْ كِتٰبٍ ؕ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ یَسِیْرٌ

Do you not know that Allah knows all that is in the sky and the earth? Surely, that is contained in a Book. Indeed it is so easy for Allah.
22:71

وَیَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَمْ یُنَزِّلْ بِهٖ سُلْطٰنًا وَّمَا لَیْسَ لَهُمْ بِهٖ عِلْمٌ ؕ وَمَا لِلظّٰلِمِیْنَ مِنْ نَّصِیْرٍ

They worship, besides Allah, the objects for which He did never send down an authority (or proof) and about which they have no knowledge. And for the wrongdoers there is no helper.
22:72

وَاِذَا تُتْلٰی عَلَیْهِمْ اٰیٰتُنَا بَیِّنٰتٍ تَعْرِفُ فِیْ وُجُوْهِ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوا الْمُنْكَرَ ؕ یَكَادُوْنَ یَسْطُوْنَ بِالَّذِیْنَ یَتْلُوْنَ عَلَیْهِمْ اٰیٰتِنَا ؕ قُلْ اَفَاُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِشَرٍّ مِّنْ ذٰلِكُمْ ؕ اَلنَّارُ ؕ وَعَدَهَا اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا ؕ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِیْرُ

When Our verses are recited to them in all their clarity, you (can) recognize disgust on the faces of the disbelievers. They seem to attack those who recite to them Our verses. Say, “Shall I, then, tell you about something more disgusting than that? The Fire! Allah has promised it to those who disbelieve. And it is an evil end.”
22:73

یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّاسُ ضُرِبَ مَثَلٌ فَاسْتَمِعُوْا لَهٗ ؕ اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ تَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ لَنْ یَّخْلُقُوْا ذُبَابًا وَّلَوِ اجْتَمَعُوْا لَهٗ ؕ وَاِنْ یَّسْلُبْهُمُ الذُّبَابُ شَیْـًٔا لَّا یَسْتَنْقِذُوْهُ مِنْهُ ؕ ضَعُفَ الطَّالِبُ وَالْمَطْلُوْبُ

O people, here is a parable set forth to you, so listen to it carefully: All those whom you invoke besides Allah can never create (even) a fly, even though they all join hands together for that. And if a fly snatches something away from them, they cannot release it from its possession. (Equally) feeble are the invoker and the invoked.
22:74

مَا قَدَرُوا اللّٰهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهٖ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَقَوِیٌّ عَزِیْزٌ

They did not recognize Allah in His true esteem. Indeed Allah is Powerful, Mighty.
22:75

اَللّٰهُ یَصْطَفِیْ مِنَ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةِ رُسُلًا وَّمِنَ النَّاسِ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ سَمِیْعٌ بَصِیْرٌ

Allah chooses messengers from angels and from men. Surely, Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
22:76

یَعْلَمُ مَا بَیْنَ اَیْدِیْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ؕ وَاِلَی اللّٰهِ تُرْجَعُ الْاُمُوْرُ

He knows what is in front of them and what is behind them, and to Allah all matters are to be returned.
22:77

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا ارْكَعُوْا وَاسْجُدُوْا وَاعْبُدُوْا رَبَّكُمْ وَافْعَلُوا الْخَیْرَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُوْنَ

O you who believe, bow down in Rukū‘ and bow down in Sajdah, and worship your Lord and do good deeds, so that you achieve success.
22:78

وَجَاهِدُوْا فِی اللّٰهِ حَقَّ جِهَادِهٖ ؕ هُوَ اجْتَبٰىكُمْ وَمَا جَعَلَ عَلَیْكُمْ فِی الدِّیْنِ مِنْ حَرَجٍ ؕ مِلَّةَ اَبِیْكُمْ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ ؕ هُوَ سَمّٰىكُمُ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ ۙ۬ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَفِیْ هٰذَا لِیَكُوْنَ الرَّسُوْلُ شَهِیْدًا عَلَیْكُمْ وَتَكُوْنُوْا شُهَدَآءَ عَلَی النَّاسِ ۖۚ فَاَقِیْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاٰتُوا الزَّكٰوةَ وَاعْتَصِمُوْا بِاللّٰهِ ؕ هُوَ مَوْلٰىكُمْ ۚ فَنِعْمَ الْمَوْلٰی وَنِعْمَ النَّصِیْرُ

Struggle for (seeking the pleasure of) Allah, a struggle that is owed to Him. He has chosen you and did not impose any hardship on you in the religion, the faith of your father Ibrāhīm. He (Allah) named you as Muslims earlier and also in this (Qur’ān), so that the Messenger becomes a witness to you, and you become witnesses to (other) people. So establish Salāh, pay Zakāh and hold fast to Allah. He is your patron. So, how excellent He is as a patron, and how excellent as a supporter!
