Al-Isra 17:51

Al-Isra - The Night Journey

الإسراء

أَو خَلقًا مِمّا يَكبُرُ في صُدورِكُم ۚ فَسَيَقولونَ مَن يُعيدُنا ۖ قُلِ الَّذي فَطَرَكُم أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ ۚ فَسَيُنغِضونَ إِلَيكَ رُءوسَهُم وَيَقولونَ مَتىٰ هُوَ ۖ قُل عَسىٰ أَن يَكونَ قَريبًا

Or any creation you deem more even formidable.” Then they will question, “Who will restore us?” Respond, “The One who created you in the first place.” Then they’ll shake their heads at you and ask, “When will this happen?” Say, “It could be quite soon.”

Verse 52

يَومَ يَدعوكُم فَتَستَجيبونَ بِحَمدِهِ وَتَظُنّونَ إِن لَبِثتُم إِلّا قَليلًا

On the Day He calls you, you will respond praising Him, realizing that you lingered only briefly.

Verse 53

وَقُل لِعِبادي يَقولُوا الَّتي هِيَ أَحسَنُ ۚ إِنَّ الشَّيطانَ يَنزَغُ بَينَهُم ۚ إِنَّ الشَّيطانَ كانَ لِلإِنسانِ عَدُوًّا مُبينًا

Tell My servants to speak in a most kindly manner, for Satan sows discord among them. Satan is a clear enemy of man.

Verse 54

رَبُّكُم أَعلَمُ بِكُم ۖ إِن يَشَأ يَرحَمكُم أَو إِن يَشَأ يُعَذِّبكُم ۚ وَما أَرسَلناكَ عَلَيهِم وَكيلًا

Your Lord knows you best. If He wills, He will have mercy on you. And if He wills, He will punish you. We didn’t send you as their overseer.

Verse 55

وَرَبُّكَ أَعلَمُ بِمَن فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۗ وَلَقَد فَضَّلنا بَعضَ النَّبِيّينَ عَلىٰ بَعضٍ ۖ وَآتَينا داوودَ زَبورًا

Your Lord knows everyone in the heavens and on earth. We’ve favored some prophets over others. To David, We gave the Psalms.

Verse 56

قُلِ ادعُوا الَّذينَ زَعَمتُم مِن دونِهِ فَلا يَملِكونَ كَشفَ الضُّرِّ عَنكُم وَلا تَحويلًا

Say, “Invoke those you presume besides Him; they lack the power to alleviate your suffering or change your condition.”
