وَأَنَّ السّاعَةَ آتِيَةٌ لا رَيبَ فيها وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَبعَثُ مَن فِي القُبورِ
The Hour is to come—there is no doubt about it—God will resurrect those who are in the graves.
وَمِنَ النّاسِ مَن يُجادِلُ فِي اللَّهِ بِغَيرِ عِلمٍ وَلا هُدًى وَلا كِتابٍ مُنيرٍ
Some people argue about God without knowledge, guidance, or an enlightening Scripture.
ثانِيَ عِطفِهِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبيلِ اللَّهِ ۖ لَهُ فِي الدُّنيا خِزيٌ ۖ وَنُذيقُهُ يَومَ القِيامَةِ عَذابَ الحَريقِ
They bend it to mislead others from God’s path. For them is humiliation in this world, and on Resurrection Day, We will make them taste the punishment of the Burning Fire.
ذٰلِكَ بِما قَدَّمَت يَداكَ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ لَيسَ بِظَلّامٍ لِلعَبيدِ
This is what your hands sent ahead, and God is never unjust to the servants.
وَمِنَ النّاسِ مَن يَعبُدُ اللَّهَ عَلىٰ حَرفٍ ۖ فَإِن أَصابَهُ خَيرٌ اطمَأَنَّ بِهِ ۖ وَإِن أَصابَتهُ فِتنَةٌ انقَلَبَ عَلىٰ وَجهِهِ خَسِرَ الدُّنيا وَالآخِرَةَ ۚ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الخُسرانُ المُبينُ
Among people, there is one who worships God on edge. If good touches him, he is content, but if a trial strikes him, he reverts, losing both this world and the Hereafter. This is the clear loss.
يَدعو مِن دونِ اللَّهِ ما لا يَضُرُّهُ وَما لا يَنفَعُهُ ۚ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلالُ البَعيدُ
He prays to, instead of God, what neither harms nor benefits him. That is straying far.
يَدعو لَمَن ضَرُّهُ أَقرَبُ مِن نَفعِهِ ۚ لَبِئسَ المَولىٰ وَلَبِئسَ العَشيرُ
He invokes one whose harm is closer than his benefit—what an evil patron and what an evil companion!
إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُدخِلُ الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ جَنّاتٍ تَجري مِن تَحتِهَا الأَنهارُ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَفعَلُ ما يُريدُ
God will admit those who believe and act righteously into Gardens through which rivers flow. God does whatever He wills.
مَن كانَ يَظُنُّ أَن لَن يَنصُرَهُ اللَّهُ فِي الدُّنيا وَالآخِرَةِ فَليَمدُد بِسَبَبٍ إِلَى السَّماءِ ثُمَّ ليَقطَع فَليَنظُر هَل يُذهِبَنَّ كَيدُهُ ما يَغيظُ
Whoever thinks that God won’t help him in this life and the Hereafter, let him extend to the sky, cut, and see if his strategy eliminates what enrages him.
وَكَذٰلِكَ أَنزَلناهُ آياتٍ بَيِّناتٍ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَهدي مَن يُريدُ
And thus, We sent it down as clear signs, and surely, God guides whom He wills.
إِنَّ الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَالَّذينَ هادوا وَالصّابِئينَ وَالنَّصارىٰ وَالمَجوسَ وَالَّذينَ أَشرَكوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَفصِلُ بَينَهُم يَومَ القِيامَةِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَيءٍ شَهيدٌ
Those who believe, the Jews, the Sabeans, the Christians, the Zoroastrians, and those who associate—God will judge between them on Resurrection Day. God is a Witness over all things.
