The Qur'an, 73. al-Muzammil

73. al-Muzammil: The Mantled One

1 O thou wrapped up in thy raiment!
2 Keep vigil the night long, save a little -
3 A half thereof, or abate a little thereof
4 Or add (a little) thereto - and chant the Qur'an in measure,
5 For we shall charge thee with a word of weight.
6 Lo! the vigil of the night is (a time) when impression is more keen and speech more certain.
7 Lo! thou hast by day a chain of business.
8 So remember the name of thy Lord and devote thyself with a complete devotion -
9 Lord of the East and the West; there is no God save Him; so choose thou Him alone for thy defender -
10 And bear with patience what they utter, and part from them with a fair leave- taking.
11 Leave Me to deal with the deniers, lords of ease and comfort (in this life); and do thou respite them awhile.
12 Lo! with Us are heavy fetters and a raging fire,
13 And food which choketh (the partaker), and a painful doom
14 On the day when the earth and the hills rock, and the hills become a heap of running sand.
15 Lo! We have sent unto you a messenger as witness against you, even as We sent unto Pharaoh a messenger.
16 But Pharaoh rebelled against the messenger, whereupon We seized him with no gentle grip.
17 Then how, if ye disbelieve, will ye protect yourselves upon the day which will turn children grey,
18 The very heaven being then rent asunder. His promise is to be fulfilled.
19 Lo! This is a Reminder. Let him who will, then, choose a way unto his Lord.
20 Lo! thy Lord knoweth how thou keepest vigil sometimes nearly two-thirds of the night, or (sometimes) half or a third thereof, as do a party of those with thee. Allah measureth the night and the day. He knoweth that ye count it not, and turneth unto you in mercy. Recite, then, of the Qur'an that which is easy for you. He knoweth that there are sick folk among you, while others travel in the land in search of Allah's bounty, and others (still) are fighting for the cause of Allah. So recite of it that which is easy (for you), and establish worship and pay the poor-due, and (so) lend unto Allah a goodly loan. Whatsoever good ye send before you for your souls, ye will find it with Allah, better and greater in the recompense. And seek forgiveness of Allah. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

The Qur'an, 72. al-Jinn

The Qur'an, 72. al-Jinn

72. al-Jinn: The Jinn

1 Say (O Muhammad): It is revealed unto me that a company of the Jinn gave ear, and they said: Lo! we have heard a marvellous Qur'an,
2 Which guideth unto righteousness, so we believe in it and we ascribe no partner unto our Lord.
3 And (we believe) that He - exalted be the glory of our Lord! - hath taken neither wife nor son,
4 And that the foolish one among us used to speak concerning Allah an atrocious lie.
5 And lo! we had supposed that humankind and jinn would not speak a lie concerning Allah -
6 And indeed (O Muhammad) individuals of humankind used to invoke the protection of individuals of the jinn, so that they increased them in revolt against Allah);
7 And indeed they supposed, even as ye suppose, that Allah would not raise anyone (from the dead) -
8 And (the Jinn who had listened to the Qur'an said): We had sought the heaven but had found it filled with strong warders and meteors.
9 And we used to sit on places (high) therein to listen. But he who listeneth now findeth a flame in wait for him;
10 And we know not whether harm is boded unto all who are in the earth, or whether their Lord intendeth guidance for them.
11 And among us there are righteous folk and among us there are far from that. We are sects having different rules.
12 And we know that we cannot escape from Allah in the earth, nor can we escape by flight.
13 And when we heard the guidance, we believed therein, and whoso believeth in his Lord, he feareth neither loss nor oppression.
14 And there are among us some who have surrendered (to Allah) and there are among us some who are unjust. And whoso hath surrendered to Allah, such have taken the right path purposefully.
15 And as for those who are unjust, they are firewood for hell.
16 If they (the idolaters) tread the right path, We shall give them to drink of water in abundance
17 That We may test them thereby, and whoso turneth away from the remembrance of his Lord; He will thrust him into ever-growing torment.
18 And the places of worship are only for Allah, so pray not unto anyone along with Allah.
19 And when the slave of Allah stood up in prayer to Him, they crowded on him, almost stifling.
20 Say (unto them, O Muhammad): I pray unto Allah only, and ascribe unto Him no partner.
21 Say: Lo! I control not hurt nor benefit for you.
22 Say: Lo! none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find any refuge beside Him
23 (Mine is) but conveyance (of the Truth) from Allah, and His messages; and whoso disobeyeth Allah and His messenger, lo! his is fire of hell, wherein such dwell for ever.
24 Till (the day) when they shall behold that which they are promised (they may doubt); but then they will know (for certain) who is weaker in allies and less in multitude.
25 Say (O Muhammad, unto the disbelievers): I know not whether that which ye are promised is nigh, or if my Lord hath set a distant term for it.
26 (He is) the Knower of the Unseen, and He revealeth unto none His secret,
27 Save unto every messenger whom He hath chosen, and then He maketh a guard to go before him and a guard behind him
28 That He may know that they have indeed conveyed the messages of their Lord. He surroundeth all their doings, and He keepeth count of all things.

The Qur'an, 71. Nuh

71. Nuh: Noah

1 Lo! We sent Noah unto his people (saying): Warn thy people ere the painful doom come unto them.
2 He said: O my people! Lo! I am a plain warner unto you
3 (Bidding you): Serve Allah and keep your duty unto Him and obey me,
4 That He may forgive you somewhat of your sins and respite you to an appointed term. Lo! the term of Allah, when it cometh, cannot be delayed, if ye but knew.
5 He said: My Lord! Lo! I have called unto my people night and day
6 But all my calling doth but add to their repugnance;
7 And lo! whenever I call unto them that Thou mayst pardon them they thrust their fingers in their ears and cover themselves with their garments and persist (in their refusal) and magnify themselves in pride.
8 And lo! I have called unto them aloud,
9 And lo! I have made public proclamation unto them, and I have appealed to them in private.
10 And I have said: Seek pardon of your Lord. Lo! He was ever Forgiving.
11 He will let loose the sky for you in plenteous rain,
12 And will help you with wealth and sons, and will assign unto you Gardens and will assign unto you rivers.
13 What aileth you that ye hope not toward Allah for dignity
14 When He created you by (divers) stages ?
15 See ye not how Allah hath created seven heavens in harmony,
16 And hath made the moon a light therein, and made the sun a lamp ?
17 And Allah hath caused you to grow as a growth from the earth,
18 And afterward He maketh you return thereto, and He will bring you forth again, a (new) forthbringing.
19 And Allah hath made the earth a wide expanse for you
20 That ye may thread the valley-ways thereof.
21 Noah said: My Lord! Lo! they have disobeyed me and followed one whose wealth and children increase him in naught save ruin;
22 And they have plotted a mighty plot,
23 And they have said: Forsake not your gods. Forsake not Wadd, nor Suwa', nor Yaghuth and Ya'uq and Nasr.
24 And they have led many astray, and Thou increasest the wrong-doers in naught save error.
25 Because of their sins they were drowned, then made to enter a Fire. And they found they had no helpers in place of Allah.
26 And Noah said: My Lord! Leave not one of the disbelievers in the land.
27 If Thou shouldst leave them, they will mislead Thy slaves and will beget none save lewd ingrates.
28 My Lord! Forgive me and my parents and him who entereth my house believing, and believing men and believing women, and increase not the wrong-doers in aught save ruin.

The Qur'an, 70. al-Ma`arij

70. al-Ma`arij: The Ladders

1 A questioner questioned concerning the doom about to fall
2 Upon the disbelievers, which none can repel,
3 From Allah, Lord of the Ascending Stairways
4 (Whereby) the angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him in a Day whereof the span is fifty thousand years.
5 But be patient (O Muhammad) with a patience fair to see.
6 Lo! they behold it afar off
7 While we behold it nigh:
8 The day when the sky will become as molten copper,
9 And the hills become as flakes of wool,
10 And no familiar friend will ask a question of his friend
11 Though they will be given sight of them. The guilty man will long to be able to ransom himself from the punishment of that day at the price of his children
12 And his spouse and his brother
13 And his kin that harboured him
14 And all that are in the earth, if then it might deliver him.
15 But nay! for lo! it is the fire of hell
16 Eager to roast;
17 It calleth him who turned and fled (from truth),
18 And hoarded (wealth) and withheld it.
19 Lo! man was created anxious,
20 Fretful when evil befalleth him
21 And, when good befalleth him, grudging;
22 Save worshippers.
23 Who are constant at their worship
24 And in whose wealth there is a right acknowledged
25 For the beggar and the destitute;
26 And those who believe in the Day of Judgment,
27 And those who are fearful of their Lord's doom -
28 Lo! the doom of their Lord is that before which none can feel secure -
29 And those who preserve their chastity
30 Save with their wives and those whom their right hands possess, for thus they are not blameworthy;
31 But whoso seeketh more than that, those are they who are transgressors;
32 And those who keep their pledges and their covenant,
33 And those who stand by their testimony
34 And those who are attentive at their worship.
35 These will dwell in Gardens, honoured.
36 What aileth those who disbelieve, that they keep staring toward thee (O Muhammad), open-eyed,
37 On the right and on the left, in groups ?
38 Doth every man among them hope to enter the Garden of Delight ?
39 Nay, verily. Lo! We created them from what they know.
40 But nay! I swear by the Lord of the rising-places and the setting-places of the planets that We verily are Able
41 To replace them by (others) better than them. And we are not to be outrun.
42 So let them chat and play until they meet their Day which they are promised,
43 The day when they come forth from the graves in haste, as racing to a goal,
44 With eyes aghast, abasement stupefying them: Such is the Day which they are promised.

The Qur'an, 69. al-Haqqah

69. al-Haqqah: The Inevitable

1 The Reality!
2 What is the Reality ?
3 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the reality is!
4 (The tribes of) Thamud and A'ad disbelieved in the judgment to come.
5 As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the lightning.
6 And as for A'ad, they were destroyed by a fierce roaring wind,
7 Which He imposed on them for seven long nights and eight long days so that thou mightest have seen men lying overthrown, as they were hollow trunks of palm- trees.
8 Canst thou (O Muhammad) see any remnant of them ?
9 And Pharaoh and those before him, and the communities that were destroyed, brought error,
10 And they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, therefor did He grip them with a tightening grip.
11 Lo! when the waters rose, We carried you upon the ship
12 That We might make it a memorial for you, and that remembering ears (that heard the story) might remember.
13 And when the trumpet shall sound one blast
14 And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash,
15 Then, on that day will the Event befall.
16 And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will be frail.
17 And the angels will be on the sides thereof, and eight will uphold the Throne of thy Lord that day, above them.
18 On that day ye will be exposed; not a secret of you will be hidden.
19 Then, as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book!
20 Surely I knew that I should have to meet my reckoning.
21 Then he will be in blissful state
22 In a high garden
23 Whereof the clusters are in easy reach.
24 (And it will be said unto those therein): Eat and drink at ease for that which ye sent on before you in past days.
25 But as for him who is given his record in his left hand, he will say: Oh, would that I had not been given my book
26 And knew not what my reckoning!
27 Oh, would that it had been death!
28 My wealth hath not availed me,
29 My power hath gone from me.
30 (It will be said): Take him and fetter him
31 And then expose him to hell-fire
32 And then insert him in a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits.
33 Lo! He used not to believe in Allah the Tremendous,
34 And urged not on the feeding of the wretched.
35 Therefor hath he no lover here this day,
36 Nor any food save filth
37 Which none but sinners eat.
38 But nay! I swear by all that ye see
39 And all that ye see not
40 That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger.
41 It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe!
42 Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember!
43 It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
44 And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us,
45 We assuredly had taken him by the right hand
46 And then severed his life-artery,
47 And not one of you could have held Us off from him.
48 And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil).
49 And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it).
50 And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers.
51 And lo! it is absolute truth.
52 So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord.

The Qur'an, 68. al-Qalam

68. al-Qalam: The Pen

1 Nun. By the pen and that which they write (therewith),
2 Thou art not, for thy Lord's favour unto thee, a madman.
3 And lo! thine verily will be a reward unfailing.
4 And lo! thou art of a tremendous nature.
5 And thou wilt see and they will see
6 Which of you is the demented.
7 Lo! thy Lord is Best Aware of him who strayeth from His way, and He is Best Aware of those who walk aright.
8 Therefor obey not thou the rejecters
9 Who would have had thee compromise, that they may compromise.
10 Neither obey thou each feeble oath-monger,
11 Detracter, spreader abroad of slanders,
12 Hinderer of the good, transgressor, malefactor
13 Greedy therewithal, intrusive.
14 It is because he is possessed of wealth and children
15 That, when Our revelations are recited unto him, he saith: Mere fables of the men of old.
16 We shall brand him on the nose.
17 Lo! We have tried them as We tried the owners of the garden when they vowed that they would pluck its fruit next morning,
18 And made no exception (for the Will of Allah);
19 Then a visitation from thy Lord came upon it while they slept
20 And in the morning it was as if plucked.
21 And they cried out one unto another in the morning,
22 Saying: Run unto your field if ye would pluck (the fruit).
23 So they went off, saying one unto another in low tones:
24 No needy man shall enter it to-day against you.
25 They went betimes, strong in (this) purpose.
26 But when they saw it, they said: Lo! we are in error!
27 Nay, but we are desolate!
28 The best among them said: Said I not unto you: Why glorify ye not (Allah) ?
29 They said: Glorified be our Lord! Lo! we have been wrong-doers.
30 Then some of them drew near unto others, self-reproaching.
31 They said: Alas for us! In truth we were outrageous.
32 It may be that our Lord will give us better than this in place thereof. Lo! we beseech our Lord.
33 Such was the punishment. And verily the punishment of the Hereafter is greater if they did but know.
34 Lo! for those who keep from evil are gardens of bliss with their Lord.
35 Shall We then treat those who have surrendered as We treat the guilty ?
36 What aileth you ? How foolishly ye judge!
37 Or have ye a scripture wherein ye learn
38 That ye shall indeed have all that ye choose ?
39 Or have ye a covenant on oath from Us that reacheth to the Day of Judgment, that yours shall be all that ye ordain ?
40 Ask them (O Muhammad) which of them will vouch for that!
41 Or have they other gods ? Then let them bring their other gods if they are truthful
42 On the day when it befalleth in earnest, and they are ordered to prostrate themselves but are not able,
43 With eyes downcast, abasement stupefying them. And they had been summoned to prostrate themselves while they were yet unhurt.
44 Leave Me (to deal) with those who give the lie to this pronouncement. We shall lead them on by steps from whence they know not.
45 Yet I bear with them, for lo! My scheme is firm.
46 Or dost thou (Muhammad) ask a fee from them so that they are heavily taxed ?
47 Or is the Unseen theirs that they can write (thereof) ?
48 But wait thou for thy Lord's decree, and be not like him of the fish, who cried out in despair.
49 Had it not been that favour from his Lord had reached him he surely had been cast into the wilderness while he was reprobate.
50 But his Lord chose him and placed him among the righteous.
51 And lo! those who disbelieve would fain disconcert thee with their eyes when they hear the Reminder, and they say: Lo! he is indeed mad;
52 When it is naught else than a Reminder to creation.

The Qur'an, 67. al-Mulk

67. al-Mulk: The Kingdom

1 Blessed is He in Whose hand is the Sovereignty, and, He is Able to do all things.
2 Who hath created life and death that He may try you which of you is best in conduct; and He is the Mighty, the Forgiving,
3 Who hath created seven heavens in harmony. Thou (Muhammad) canst see no fault in the Beneficent One's creation; then look again: Canst thou see any rifts ?
4 Then look again and yet again, thy sight will return unto thee weakened and made dim.
5 And verily We have beautified the world's heaven with lamps, and We have made them missiles for the devils, and for them We have prepared the doom of flame.
6 And for those who disbelieve in their Lord there is the doom of hell, a hapless journey's end!
7 When they are flung therein they hear its roaring as it boileth up,
8 As it would burst with rage. Whenever a (fresh) host is flung therein the wardens thereof ask them: Came there unto you no warner ?
9 They say: Yea, verily, a warner came unto us; but we denied and said: Allah hath naught revealed; ye are in naught but a great error.
10 And they say: Had we been wont to listen or have sense, we had not been among the dwellers in the flames.
11 So they acknowledge their sins; but far removed (from mercy) are the dwellers in the flames.
12 Lo! those who fear their Lord in secret, theirs will be forgiveness and a great reward.
13 And keep your opinion secret or proclaim it, lo! He is Knower of all that is in the breasts (of men).
14 Should He not know what He created ? And He is the Subtile, the Aware.
15 He it is Who hath made the earth subservient unto you, so Walk in the paths thereof and eat of His providence. And unto Him will be the resurrection (of the dead).
16 Have ye taken security from Him Who is in the heaven that He will not cause the earth to swallow you when lo! it is convulsed ?
17 Or have ye taken security from Him Who is in the heaven that He will not let loose on you a hurricane ? But ye shall know the manner of My warning.
18 And verily those before them denied, then (see) the manner of My wrath (with them)!
19 Have they not seen the birds above them spreading out their wings and closing them ? Naught upholdeth them save the Beneficent. Lo! He is Seer of all things.
20 Or who is he that will be an army unto you to help you instead of the Beneficent ? The disbelievers are in naught but illusion.
21 Or who is he that will provide for you if He should withhold His providence ? Nay, but they are set in pride and frowardness.
22 Is he who goeth groping on his face more rightly guided, or he who walketh upright on a straight road ?
23 Say (unto them, O Muhammad): He it is who gave you being, and hath assigned unto you ears and eyes and hearts. Small thanks give ye!
24 Say: He it is Who multiplieth you in the earth, and unto Whom ye will be gathered.
25 And they say: When (will) this promise (be fulfilled), if ye are truthful ?
26 Say: The knowledge is with Allah only, and I am but a plain warner;
27 But when they see it nigh, the faces of those who disbelieve will be awry, and it will be said (unto them): This is that for which ye used to call.
28 Say (O Muhammad): Have ye thought: Whether Allah causeth me (Muhammad) and those with me to perish or hath mercy on us, still, who will protect the disbelievers from a painful doom ?
29 Say: He is the Beneficent. In Him we believe and in Him we put our trust. And ye will soon know who it is that is in error manifest.
30 Say: Have ye thought: If (all) your water were to disappear into the earth, who then could bring you gushing water ?

The Qur'an, 66. at-Tahrim

66. at-Tahrim: The Prohibition

1 O Prophet! Why bannest thou that which Allah hath made lawful for thee, seeking to please thy wives ? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
2 Allah hath made lawful for you (Muslims) absolution from your oaths (of such a kind), and Allah is your Protector. He is the Knower, the Wise.
3 When the Prophet confided a fact unto one of his wives and when she afterward divulged it and Allah apprised him thereof, he made known (to her) part thereof and passed over part. And when he told it her she said: Who hath told thee ? He said: The Knower, the Aware hath told me.
4 If ye twain turn unto Allah repentant, (ye have cause to do so) for your hearts desired (the ban); and if ye aid one another against him (Muhammad) then lo! Allah, even He, is his Protecting Friend, and Gabriel and the righteous among the believers; and furthermore the angels are his helpers.
5 It may happen that his Lord, if he divorce you, will give him in your stead wives better than you, submissive (to Allah), believing, pious, penitent, devout, inclined to fasting, widows and maids.
6 O ye who believe! Ward off from yourselves and your families a Fire whereof the fuel is men and stones, over which are set angels strong, severe, who resist not Allah in that which He commandeth them, but do that which they are commanded.
7 (Then it will be said): O ye who disbelieve! Make no excuses for yourselves this day. Ye are only being paid for what ye used to do.
8 O ye who believe! Turn unto Allah in sincere repentance! It may be that your Lord will remit from you your evil deeds and bring you into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, on the day when Allah will not abase the Prophet and those who believe with him. Their light will run before them and on their right hands; they will say: Our Lord! Perfect our light for us, and forgive us! Lo! Thou art Able to do all things.
9 O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and be stern with them. Hell will be their home, a hapless journey's end.
10 Allah citeth an example for those who disbelieve: the wife of Noah and the wife of Lot, who were under two of Our righteous slaves yet betrayed them so that they (the husbands) availed them naught against Allah and it was said (unto them): Enter the Fire along with those who enter.
11 And Allah citeth an example for those who believe: the wife of Pharaoh when she said: My Lord! Build for me a home with thee in the Garden, and deliver me from Pharaoh and his work, and deliver me from evil-doing folk;
12 And Mary, daughter of 'Imran, whose body was chaste, therefor We breathed therein something of Our Spirit. And she put faith in the words of her Lord and His scriptures, and was of the obedient.

The Qur'an, 65. at-Talaq

65. at-Talaq: The Divorce

1 O Prophet! When ye (men) put away women, put them away for their (legal) period and reckon the period, and keep your duty to Allah, your Lord. Expel them not from their houses nor let them go forth unless they commit open immorality. Such are the limits (imposed by) Allah; and whoso transgresseth Allah's limits, he verily wrongeth his soul. Thou knowest not: it may be that Allah will afterward bring some new thing to pass.
2 Then, when they have reached their term, take them back in kindness or part from them in kindness, and call to witness two just men among you, and keep your testimony upright for Allah. Whoso believeth in Allah and the Last Day is exhorted to act thus. And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, Allah will appoint a way out for him,
3 And will provide for him from (a quarter) whence he hath no expectation. And whosoever putteth his trust in Allah, He will suffice him. Lo! Allah bringeth His command to pass. Allah hath set a measure for all things.
4 And for such of your women as despair of menstruation, if ye doubt, their period (of waiting) shall be three months, along with those who have it not. And for those with child, their period shall be till they bring forth their burden. And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, He maketh his course easy for him.
5 That is the commandment of Allah which He revealeth unto you. And whoso keepeth his duty to Allah, He will remit from him his evil deeds and magnify reward for him.
6 Lodge them where ye dwell, according to your wealth, and harass them not so as to straiten life for them. And if they are with child, then spend for them till they bring forth their burden. Then, if they give suck for you, give them their due payment and consult together in kindness; but if ye make difficulties for one another, then let some other woman give suck for him (the father of the child).
7 Let him who hath abundance spend of his abundance, and he whose provision is measured, let him spend of that which Allah hath given him. Allah asketh naught of any soul save that which He hath given it. Allah will vouchsafe, after hardship, ease.
8 And how many a community revolted against the ordinance of its Lord and His messengers, and We called it to a stern account and punished it with dire punishment,
9 So that it tasted the ill-effects of its conduct, and the consequence of its conduct was loss.
10 Allah hath prepared for them stern punishment; so keep your duty to Allah, O men of understanding! O ye who believe! Now Allah hath sent down unto you a reminder,
11 A messenger reciting unto you the revelations of Allah made plain, that He may bring forth those who believe and do good works from darkness unto light. And whosoever believeth in Allah and doeth right, He will bring him into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, therein to abide for ever. Allah hath made good provision for him.
12 Allah it is who hath created seven heavens, and of the earth the like thereof. The commandment cometh down among them slowly, that ye may know that Allah is Able to do all things, and that Allah surroundeth all things in knowledge.

The Qur'an, 64. at-Taghabun

64. at-Taghabun: The Cheating

1 All that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth glorifieth Allah; unto Him belongeth Sovereignty and unto Him belongeth praise, and He is Able to do all things.
2 He it is Who created you, but one of you is a disbeliever and one of you is a believer, and Allah is Seer of what ye do.
3 He created the heavens and the earth with truth, and He shaped you and made good your shapes, and unto Him is the journeying.
4 He knoweth all that is in the heavens and the earth, and He knoweth what ye conceal and what ye publish. And Allah is Aware of what is in the breasts (of men).
5 Hath not the story reached you of those who disbelieved of old and so did taste the ill-effects of their conduct, and theirs will be a painful doom.
6 That was because their messengers (from Allah) kept coming unto them with clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty), but they said: Shall mere mortals guide us ? So they disbelieved and turned away, and Allah was independent (of them). Allah is Absolute, Owner of Praise.
7 Those who disbelieve assert that they will not be raised again. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Yea, verily, by my Lord! ye will be raised again and then ye will be informed of what ye did; and that is easy for Allah.
8 So believe in Allah and His messenger and the light which We have revealed. And Allah is Informed of what ye do.
9 The day when He shall gather you unto the Day of Assembling, that will be a day of mutual disillusion. And whoso believeth in Allah and doeth right, He will remit from him his evil deeds and will bring him unto Gardens underneath which rivers flow, therein to abide for ever. That is the supreme triumph.
10 But those who disbelieve and deny Our revelations, such are owners of the Fire; they will abide therein - a hapless journey's end!
11 No calamity befalleth save by Allah's leave. And whosoever believeth in Allah, He guideth his heart. And Allah is Knower of all things.
12 Obey Allah and obey His messenger; but if ye turn away, then the duty of Our messenger is only to convey (the message) plainly.
13 Allah! There is no God save Him. In Allah, therefore, let believers put their trust.
14 O ye who believe! Lo! among your wives and your children there are enemies for you, therefor beware of them. And if ye efface and overlook and forgive, then lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
15 Your wealth and your children are only a temptation, whereas Allah! with Him is an immense reward.
16 So keep your duty to Allah as best ye can, and listen, and obey, and spend; that is better for your souls. And whoso is saved from his own greed, such are the successful.
17 If ye lend unto Allah a goodly loan, He will double it for you and will forgive you, for Allah is Responsive, Clement,
18 Knower of the Invisible and the Visible, the Mighty, the Wise.
