قُل لا أَملِكُ لِنَفسي ضَرًّا وَلا نَفعًا إِلّا ما شاءَ اللَّهُ ۗ لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلٌ ۚ إِذا جاءَ أَجَلُهُم فَلا يَستَأخِرونَ ساعَةً ۖ وَلا يَستَقدِمونَ
Reply, “I have no control over any harm or benefit to myself, except as God wills. For every nation, there is a predetermined time. When their time arrives, they can neither delay it by an hour nor advance it.”
قُل أَرَأَيتُم إِن أَتاكُم عَذابُهُ بَياتًا أَو نَهارًا ماذا يَستَعجِلُ مِنهُ المُجرِمونَ
Say, “Have you considered: whether His punishment comes to you by night or by day, how much of it will the criminals seek to hasten?”
أَثُمَّ إِذا ما وَقَعَ آمَنتُم بِهِ ۚ آلآنَ وَقَد كُنتُم بِهِ تَستَعجِلونَ
“Will you only believe when it happens? Now? Even though you were impatient for it?”
ثُمَّ قيلَ لِلَّذينَ ظَلَموا ذوقوا عَذابَ الخُلدِ هَل تُجزَونَ إِلّا بِما كُنتُم تَكسِبونَ
Then, those who acted unjustly will be told, “Taste the everlasting torment. Are you being compensated except for what you used to earn?”
وَيَستَنبِئونَكَ أَحَقٌّ هُوَ ۖ قُل إي وَرَبّي إِنَّهُ لَحَقٌّ ۖ وَما أَنتُم بِمُعجِزينَ
They question you, “Is this the truth?” Respond, “Yes, by my Lord, it’s the truth, and you can’t escape from it.”
وَلَو أَنَّ لِكُلِّ نَفسٍ ظَلَمَت ما فِي الأَرضِ لَافتَدَت بِهِ ۗ وَأَسَرُّوا النَّدامَةَ لَمّا رَأَوُا العَذابَ ۖ وَقُضِيَ بَينَهُم بِالقِسطِ ۚ وَهُم لا يُظلَمونَ
If every wrongdoer possessed all that exists on earth, he would seek to ransom himself by it. Yet, when they witness the punishment, they will conceal their regret. They will be judged justly, and they won’t be wronged.
أَلا إِنَّ لِلَّهِ ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۗ أَلا إِنَّ وَعدَ اللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَلـٰكِنَّ أَكثَرَهُم لا يَعلَمونَ
Unquestionably! All that’s in the heavens and on earth belongs to God. Indeed, the promise of God is always true, yet most of them don’t have the knowledge.
هُوَ يُحيي وَيُميتُ وَإِلَيهِ تُرجَعونَ
It is He who gives life and causes death, and to Him you will be returned.
يا أَيُّهَا النّاسُ قَد جاءَتكُم مَوعِظَةٌ مِن رَبِّكُم وَشِفاءٌ لِما فِي الصُّدورِ وَهُدًى وَرَحمَةٌ لِلمُؤمِنينَ
O mankind, there has come to you advice from your Lord and healing for what’s in the hearts, and guidance and mercy for the believers.
قُل بِفَضلِ اللَّهِ وَبِرَحمَتِهِ فَبِذٰلِكَ فَليَفرَحوا هُوَ خَيرٌ مِمّا يَجمَعونَ
Say, “In the grace and mercy of God, let them rejoice. It is better than what they hoard.”
قُل أَرَأَيتُم ما أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ لَكُم مِن رِزقٍ فَجَعَلتُم مِنهُ حَرامًا وَحَلالًا قُل آللَّهُ أَذِنَ لَكُم ۖ أَم عَلَى اللَّهِ تَفتَرونَ
Say, “Did you consider what God sent down to you of provision, and yet you’ve made some of it lawful and some of it unlawful?” Ask, “Does God give you permission, or are you inventing lies about God?”
