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.

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.”

هَل يَنظُرونَ إِلّا أَن تَأتِيَهُمُ المَلائِكَةُ أَو يَأتِيَ أَمرُ رَبِّكَ ۚ كَذٰلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم ۚ وَما ظَلَمَهُمُ اللَّهُ وَلـٰكِن كانوا أَنفُسَهُم يَظلِمونَ

Are they waiting for the angels to come to them, or for your Lord’s command to arrive? This is what those before them did. God didn’t wrong them, but they wronged themselves.

فَأَصابَهُم سَيِّئَاتُ ما عَمِلوا وَحاقَ بِهِم ما كانوا بِهِ يَستَهزِئونَ

The consequences of their deeds overtook them, and the very things they used to ridicule engulfed them.

وَقالَ الَّذينَ أَشرَكوا لَو شاءَ اللَّهُ ما عَبَدنا مِن دونِهِ مِن شَيءٍ نَحنُ وَلا آباؤُنا وَلا حَرَّمنا مِن دونِهِ مِن شَيءٍ ۚ كَذٰلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم ۚ فَهَل عَلَى الرُّسُلِ إِلَّا البَلاغُ المُبينُ

Those who associate others argue, “If God had willed, we wouldn’t have worshiped anything other than Him, neither us nor our ancestors, nor would we have prohibited anything without His sanction.” Those before them did the same. Are the messengers’ duty anything other than the clear conveyance of the message?

إِن تَحرِص عَلىٰ هُداهُم فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يَهدي مَن يُضِلُّ ۖ وَما لَهُم مِن ناصِرينَ

Despite your concern for their guidance, God doesn’t guide those He allows to go astray, and they will have no helpers.

وَأَقسَموا بِاللَّهِ جَهدَ أَيمانِهِم ۙ لا يَبعَثُ اللَّهُ مَن يَموتُ ۚ بَلىٰ وَعدًا عَلَيهِ حَقًّا وَلـٰكِنَّ أَكثَرَ النّاسِ لا يَعلَمونَ

They swear their strongest oaths by God that God won’t resurrect the dead. Yet, it’s absolutely a true promise from Him, though most people don’t know.

لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمُ الَّذي يَختَلِفونَ فيهِ وَلِيَعلَمَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا أَنَّهُم كانوا كاذِبينَ

This serves to clarify the matters they dispute and make those who disbelieve realize that they were liars.

إِنَّما قَولُنا لِشَيءٍ إِذا أَرَدناهُ أَن نَقولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكونُ

When We decree something, We only say to it, “Be,” and it is.

وَالَّذينَ هاجَروا فِي اللَّهِ مِن بَعدِ ما ظُلِموا لَنُبَوِّئَنَّهُم فِي الدُّنيا حَسَنَةً ۖ وَلَأَجرُ الآخِرَةِ أَكبَرُ ۚ لَو كانوا يَعلَمونَ

Those who emigrate for the sake of God after being oppressed, We will establish them in this world in a favorable place. But the reward of the Hereafter is even greater, if only they knew.
