النحل
Verse 22

إِلـٰهُكُم إِلـٰهٌ واحِدٌ ۚ فَالَّذينَ لا يُؤمِنونَ بِالآخِرَةِ قُلوبُهُم مُنكِرَةٌ وَهُم مُستَكبِرونَ

Your God is one God. As for those who don’t believe in the Hereafter—their hearts are denying, and they are arrogant.

Verse 23

لا جَرَمَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَعلَمُ ما يُسِرّونَ وَما يُعلِنونَ ۚ إِنَّهُ لا يُحِبُّ المُستَكبِرينَ

God knows what they conceal and what they reveal. He doesn’t love the arrogant.

Verse 24

وَإِذا قيلَ لَهُم ماذا أَنزَلَ رَبُّكُم ۙ قالوا أَساطيرُ الأَوَّلينَ

When asked, “What did your Lord reveal?” They respond, “Myths of the ancients.”

Verse 25

لِيَحمِلوا أَوزارَهُم كامِلَةً يَومَ القِيامَةِ ۙ وَمِن أَوزارِ الَّذينَ يُضِلّونَهُم بِغَيرِ عِلمٍ ۗ أَلا ساءَ ما يَزِرونَ

On Resurrection Day, they will bear their burdens in full, along with some of the burdens of those they misled without knowledge. Alas, evil is what they bear!

Verse 26

قَد مَكَرَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم فَأَتَى اللَّهُ بُنيانَهُم مِنَ القَواعِدِ فَخَرَّ عَلَيهِمُ السَّقفُ مِن فَوقِهِم وَأَتاهُمُ العَذابُ مِن حَيثُ لا يَشعُرونَ

Those before them also plotted, but God undermined their foundations, and the roof collapsed upon them from above. The punishment came upon them from where they didn’t perceive.

ثُمَّ يَومَ القِيامَةِ يُخزيهِم وَيَقولُ أَينَ شُرَكائِيَ الَّذينَ كُنتُم تُشاقّونَ فيهِم ۚ قالَ الَّذينَ أوتُوا العِلمَ إِنَّ الخِزيَ اليَومَ وَالسّوءَ عَلَى الكافِرينَ

Then, on the Day of Resurrection, He will humiliate them and question, “Where are My ‘partners’ concerning whom you used to dispute?” Those knowledgeable will say, “Today, disgrace and misery are upon the unbelievers.”

Verse 28

الَّذينَ تَتَوَفّاهُمُ المَلائِكَةُ ظالِمي أَنفُسِهِم ۖ فَأَلقَوُا السَّلَمَ ما كُنّا نَعمَلُ مِن سوءٍ ۚ بَلىٰ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَليمٌ بِما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ

Those whose souls the angels take while they wronged themselves, will offer their submission: “We were not doing any wrong!”. Yet, God has full knowledge of what you used to do.

Verse 29

فَادخُلوا أَبوابَ جَهَنَّمَ خالِدينَ فيها ۖ فَلَبِئسَ مَثوَى المُتَكَبِّرينَ

So, enter the gates of Hell, to reside therein eternally. Horrible is the residence for the arrogant!

Verse 30

وَقيلَ لِلَّذينَ اتَّقَوا ماذا أَنزَلَ رَبُّكُم ۚ قالوا خَيرًا ۗ لِلَّذينَ أَحسَنوا في هـٰذِهِ الدُّنيا حَسَنَةٌ ۚ وَلَدارُ الآخِرَةِ خَيرٌ ۚ وَلَنِعمَ دارُ المُتَّقينَ

The righteous will be asked, “What did your Lord reveal?” They will reply, “The best.” For those who do good in this life, there is goodness, and the home of the Hereafter is even better. How wonderful is the residence of the righteous!

Verse 31

جَنّاتُ عَدنٍ يَدخُلونَها تَجري مِن تَحتِهَا الأَنهارُ ۖ لَهُم فيها ما يَشاءونَ ۚ كَذٰلِكَ يَجزِي اللَّهُ المُتَّقينَ

They will enter the Gardens of Eternity, beneath which rivers flow. Therein, they will have all that they wish for. Thus does God reward the righteous.

Verse 32

الَّذينَ تَتَوَفّاهُمُ المَلائِكَةُ طَيِّبينَ ۙ يَقولونَ سَلامٌ عَلَيكُمُ ادخُلُوا الجَنَّةَ بِما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ

When the angels receive the souls of the good-natured, they will say, “Peace be upon you. Enter Paradise due to your deeds.”
