وَلا تَمشِ فِي الأَرضِ مَرَحًا ۖ إِنَّكَ لَن تَخرِقَ الأَرضَ وَلَن تَبلُغَ الجِبالَ طولًا
Don’t walk arrogantly on earth, for you can’t pierce the ground, nor can you reach the mountains in height.
كُلُّ ذٰلِكَ كانَ سَيِّئُهُ عِندَ رَبِّكَ مَكروهًا
All of this—the evil of it—is hated by your Lord.
ذٰلِكَ مِمّا أَوحىٰ إِلَيكَ رَبُّكَ مِنَ الحِكمَةِ ۗ وَلا تَجعَل مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلـٰهًا آخَرَ فَتُلقىٰ في جَهَنَّمَ مَلومًا مَدحورًا
This is some of the wisdom your Lord revealed to you. Don’t set up another deity with God, lest you be thrown into Hell, blamed and banished.
أَفَأَصفاكُم رَبُّكُم بِالبَنينَ وَاتَّخَذَ مِنَ المَلائِكَةِ إِناثًا ۚ إِنَّكُم لَتَقولونَ قَولًا عَظيمًا
Did your Lord favor you with sons while taking for Himself daughters from among the angels? Indeed, you’ve made a grave statement.
وَلَقَد صَرَّفنا في هـٰذَا القُرآنِ لِيَذَّكَّروا وَما يَزيدُهُم إِلّا نُفورًا
We’ve explained variously in this Quran so that they may remember, but it only increases their rebellion.
قُل لَو كانَ مَعَهُ آلِهَةٌ كَما يَقولونَ إِذًا لَابتَغَوا إِلىٰ ذِي العَرشِ سَبيلًا
Say, “If there were other gods along with Him, as they claim, they would’ve sought a way to the Lord of the Throne.”
سُبحانَهُ وَتَعالىٰ عَمّا يَقولونَ عُلُوًّا كَبيرًا
Far exalted is He above what they say, in His grandeur and supremacy.
تُسَبِّحُ لَهُ السَّماواتُ السَّبعُ وَالأَرضُ وَمَن فيهِنَّ ۚ وَإِن مِن شَيءٍ إِلّا يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمدِهِ وَلـٰكِن لا تَفقَهونَ تَسبيحَهُم ۗ إِنَّهُ كانَ حَليمًا غَفورًا
The seven heavens, the earth, and everything within them praise His glory. There is not a thing that does not glorify Him with praise, but you do not understand their glorification. He is Ever-Forbearing, Most Forgiving.
وَإِذا قَرَأتَ القُرآنَ جَعَلنا بَينَكَ وَبَينَ الَّذينَ لا يُؤمِنونَ بِالآخِرَةِ حِجابًا مَستورًا
When you read the Quran, We place an invisible barrier between you and those who don’t believe in the Hereafter.
وَجَعَلنا عَلىٰ قُلوبِهِم أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفقَهوهُ وَفي آذانِهِم وَقرًا ۚ وَإِذا ذَكَرتَ رَبَّكَ فِي القُرآنِ وَحدَهُ وَلَّوا عَلىٰ أَدبارِهِم نُفورًا
We placed covers on their hearts, preventing them from understanding it, and deafness in their ears. When you mention your Lord’s singularity in the Quran, they recoil in repulsion.
نَحنُ أَعلَمُ بِما يَستَمِعونَ بِهِ إِذ يَستَمِعونَ إِلَيكَ وَإِذ هُم نَجوىٰ إِذ يَقولُ الظّالِمونَ إِن تَتَّبِعونَ إِلّا رَجُلًا مَسحورًا
We know what they listen to, when they listen to you, when they conspire, when the wrongdoers say, “You are merely following a man under a spell.”
