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.

وَما أَرسَلنا مِن قَبلِكَ إِلّا رِجالًا نوحي إِلَيهِم ۚ فَاسأَلوا أَهلَ الذِّكرِ إِن كُنتُم لا تَعلَمونَ

We sent no messengers before you except men whom We inspired. If you don’t know, ask those who possess knowledge.

بِالبَيِّناتِ وَالزُّبُرِ ۗ وَأَنزَلنا إِلَيكَ الذِّكرَ لِتُبَيِّنَ لِلنّاسِ ما نُزِّلَ إِلَيهِم وَلَعَلَّهُم يَتَفَكَّرونَ

To you, We sent down the Message, providing clear instructions and sacred scriptures, so that you may clarify to people what was revealed to them, and that they may reflect.

أَفَأَمِنَ الَّذينَ مَكَرُوا السَّيِّئَاتِ أَن يَخسِفَ اللَّهُ بِهِمُ الأَرضَ أَو يَأتِيَهُمُ العَذابُ مِن حَيثُ لا يَشعُرونَ

Can those who devise evil plans really feel secure that God won’t cause the earth to swallow them, or that the punishment won’t come upon them whence they perceive not?

أَو يَأخُذَهُم في تَقَلُّبِهِم فَما هُم بِمُعجِزينَ

Or that He won’t catch them amidst their everyday activities, from which they can’t escape?

أَو يَأخُذَهُم عَلىٰ تَخَوُّفٍ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكُم لَرَءوفٌ رَحيمٌ

Or that He won’t take them in a state of fear? Your Lord is Kind and Merciful.
