Al-Isra - The Night Journey

الإسراء
Verse 64

وَاستَفزِز مَنِ استَطَعتَ مِنهُم بِصَوتِكَ وَأَجلِب عَلَيهِم بِخَيلِكَ وَرَجِلِكَ وَشارِكهُم فِي الأَموالِ وَالأَولادِ وَعِدهُم ۚ وَما يَعِدُهُمُ الشَّيطانُ إِلّا غُرورًا

“And entice whomever you can from among them with your voice. Muster against them your cavalry and your infantry, share the promises of wealth and children, and make promises to them.” However, Satan promises them nothing except deceit.

Verse 65

إِنَّ عِبادي لَيسَ لَكَ عَلَيهِم سُلطانٌ ۚ وَكَفىٰ بِرَبِّكَ وَكيلًا

“As for My devotees, you have no power over them. Your Lord is sufficient as a Protector.”

Verse 66

رَبُّكُمُ الَّذي يُزجي لَكُمُ الفُلكَ فِي البَحرِ لِتَبتَغوا مِن فَضلِهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ كانَ بِكُم رَحيمًا

It is your Lord who causes the ship to move for you through the sea, so you may seek His bounty. Indeed, He is Most Merciful to you.

Verse 67

وَإِذا مَسَّكُمُ الضُّرُّ فِي البَحرِ ضَلَّ مَن تَدعونَ إِلّا إِيّاهُ ۖ فَلَمّا نَجّاكُم إِلَى البَرِّ أَعرَضتُم ۚ وَكانَ الإِنسانُ كَفورًا

When danger befalls you at sea, all those you call upon vanish, except for Him. Yet, when He brings you safely to land, you turn away. Man is ever ungrateful.

Verse 68

أَفَأَمِنتُم أَن يَخسِفَ بِكُم جانِبَ البَرِّ أَو يُرسِلَ عَلَيكُم حاصِبًا ثُمَّ لا تَجِدوا لَكُم وَكيلًا

Are you confident that He won’t collapse a tract of land beneath you, or unleash a hailstorm upon you? Then, you would find no protector.

أَم أَمِنتُم أَن يُعيدَكُم فيهِ تارَةً أُخرىٰ فَيُرسِلَ عَلَيكُم قاصِفًا مِنَ الرّيحِ فَيُغرِقَكُم بِما كَفَرتُم ۙ ثُمَّ لا تَجِدوا لَكُم عَلَينا بِهِ تَبيعًا

Or are you confident that He won’t return you to it again, unleash a hurricane against you, and drown you due to your ingratitude? Then, you would find no avenger against Us.

Verse 70

وَلَقَد كَرَّمنا بَني آدَمَ وَحَمَلناهُم فِي البَرِّ وَالبَحرِ وَرَزَقناهُم مِنَ الطَّيِّباتِ وَفَضَّلناهُم عَلىٰ كَثيرٍ مِمَّن خَلَقنا تَفضيلًا

We honored the Children of Adam, transported them on land and sea, provided them with good things, and gave them preference over many of those We created.

Verse 71

يَومَ نَدعو كُلَّ أُناسٍ بِإِمامِهِم ۖ فَمَن أوتِيَ كِتابَهُ بِيَمينِهِ فَأُولـٰئِكَ يَقرَءونَ كِتابَهُم وَلا يُظلَمونَ فَتيلًا

On the Day when We summon every people with their leader, whoever is given his record in his right hand will read his record, and not a thread will be wronged.

Verse 72

وَمَن كانَ في هـٰذِهِ أَعمىٰ فَهُوَ فِي الآخِرَةِ أَعمىٰ وَأَضَلُّ سَبيلًا

But whoever is blind in this life, will be blind in the Hereafter, and further astray from the path.

Verse 73

وَإِن كادوا لَيَفتِنونَكَ عَنِ الَّذي أَوحَينا إِلَيكَ لِتَفتَرِيَ عَلَينا غَيرَهُ ۖ وَإِذًا لَاتَّخَذوكَ خَليلًا

They were about to entice you away from what We have revealed to you, in the hope that you would invent something else about Us; and then they would’ve taken you as a friend.

Verse 74

وَلَولا أَن ثَبَّتناكَ لَقَد كِدتَ تَركَنُ إِلَيهِم شَيئًا قَليلًا

Had We not fortified you, you might have leaned towards them a little.
