وَما كُنتَ تَتلو مِن قَبلِهِ مِن كِتابٍ وَلا تَخُطُّهُ بِيَمينِكَ ۖ إِذًا لَارتابَ المُبطِلونَ
You didn’t recite any scripture before this or write one with your right hand. If you had, the fabricators of falsehood would have doubted.
بَل هُوَ آياتٌ بَيِّناتٌ في صُدورِ الَّذينَ أوتُوا العِلمَ ۚ وَما يَجحَدُ بِآياتِنا إِلَّا الظّالِمونَ
Rather, these are clear signs in the hearts of those endowed with knowledge. None reject Our verses except the unjust.
وَقالوا لَولا أُنزِلَ عَلَيهِ آياتٌ مِن رَبِّهِ ۖ قُل إِنَّمَا الآياتُ عِندَ اللَّهِ وَإِنَّما أَنا نَذيرٌ مُبينٌ
They question, “Why are no miracles sent down to him from his Lord?” Respond, “The miracles are solely with God, and I am simply a plain warner.”
أَوَلَم يَكفِهِم أَنّا أَنزَلنا عَلَيكَ الكِتابَ يُتلىٰ عَلَيهِم ۚ إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَرَحمَةً وَذِكرىٰ لِقَومٍ يُؤمِنونَ
Isn’t it sufficient for them that We revealed to you the Scripture, which is conveyed to them? In this are mercy and reminders for people who believe.
قُل كَفىٰ بِاللَّهِ بَيني وَبَينَكُم شَهيدًا ۖ يَعلَمُ ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۗ وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا بِالباطِلِ وَكَفَروا بِاللَّهِ أُولـٰئِكَ هُمُ الخاسِرونَ
Say, “God is sufficient as a witness between me and you. He knows everything in the heavens and on earth. Those who believe in falsehood and reject God—they are the ones who will be the losers.”
وَيَستَعجِلونَكَ بِالعَذابِ ۚ وَلَولا أَجَلٌ مُسَمًّى لَجاءَهُمُ العَذابُ وَلَيَأتِيَنَّهُم بَغتَةً وَهُم لا يَشعُرونَ
They urge you to hasten the punishment. If not for a set term, the punishment would’ve already come upon them. Yet, it will come upon them suddenly while they are unaware.
يَستَعجِلونَكَ بِالعَذابِ وَإِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمُحيطَةٌ بِالكافِرينَ
They urge you to hasten the punishment. Hell will undoubtedly envelop the unbelievers.
يَومَ يَغشاهُمُ العَذابُ مِن فَوقِهِم وَمِن تَحتِ أَرجُلِهِم وَيَقولُ ذوقوا ما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ
On the Day when the punishment will envelop them from above them and from below their feet, He will say, “Taste what you used to do!”
يا عِبادِيَ الَّذينَ آمَنوا إِنَّ أَرضي واسِعَةٌ فَإِيّايَ فَاعبُدونِ
O My servants who have believed, My earth is vast, so worship only Me.
كُلُّ نَفسٍ ذائِقَةُ المَوتِ ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَينا تُرجَعونَ
Every soul will taste death. Then, you will be returned to Us.
وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَنُبَوِّئَنَّهُم مِنَ الجَنَّةِ غُرَفًا تَجري مِن تَحتِهَا الأَنهارُ خالِدينَ فيها ۚ نِعمَ أَجرُ العامِلينَ
Those who believe and lead righteous lives, We will settle them in Paradise, in dwellings beneath which rivers flow, where they will stay forever. What an excellent reward for the workers.
