وَلَقَد فَتَنَّا الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم ۖ فَلَيَعلَمَنَّ اللَّهُ الَّذينَ صَدَقوا وَلَيَعلَمَنَّ الكاذِبينَ
We tested those before them. And God will certainly know those who are true from those who are false.
أَم حَسِبَ الَّذينَ يَعمَلونَ السَّيِّئَاتِ أَن يَسبِقونا ۚ ساءَ ما يَحكُمونَ
Do those who commit evil think they can outmaneuver Us? How delusional they are!
مَن كانَ يَرجو لِقاءَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ أَجَلَ اللَّهِ لَآتٍ ۚ وَهُوَ السَّميعُ العَليمُ
Whoever hopes to meet God, the appointed time of God is surely coming. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.
وَمَن جاهَدَ فَإِنَّما يُجاهِدُ لِنَفسِهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنِ العالَمينَ
Whoever strives, strives for his own soul. God is free of all needs from all creation.
وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَنُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنهُم سَيِّئَاتِهِم وَلَنَجزِيَنَّهُم أَحسَنَ الَّذي كانوا يَعمَلونَ
As for those who believe and lead righteous lives, We will erase their sins and reward them according to the best of their actions.
وَوَصَّينَا الإِنسانَ بِوالِدَيهِ حُسنًا ۖ وَإِن جاهَداكَ لِتُشرِكَ بي ما لَيسَ لَكَ بِهِ عِلمٌ فَلا تُطِعهُما ۚ إِلَيَّ مَرجِعُكُم فَأُنَبِّئُكُم بِما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ
We’ve instructed man to honor his parents. However, if they pressure you to associate something with Me, about which you have no knowledge, don’t obey them. To Me is your return, and I will inform you of everything you did.
وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَنُدخِلَنَّهُم فِي الصّالِحينَ
Those who believe and do righteous deeds will be among the righteous.
وَمِنَ النّاسِ مَن يَقولُ آمَنّا بِاللَّهِ فَإِذا أوذِيَ فِي اللَّهِ جَعَلَ فِتنَةَ النّاسِ كَعَذابِ اللَّهِ وَلَئِن جاءَ نَصرٌ مِن رَبِّكَ لَيَقولُنَّ إِنّا كُنّا مَعَكُم ۚ أَوَلَيسَ اللَّهُ بِأَعلَمَ بِما في صُدورِ العالَمينَ
Some people profess, “We believe in God.” But when they suffer for God’s sake, they equate human persecution with God’s punishment. Yet, when help comes to them from your Lord, they say, “We were always with you.” Doesn’t God know what resides in the hearts of all beings?
وَلَيَعلَمَنَّ اللَّهُ الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَلَيَعلَمَنَّ المُنافِقينَ
God will certainly ascertain those who believe, and He will surely expose the hypocrites.
وَقالَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا لِلَّذينَ آمَنُوا اتَّبِعوا سَبيلَنا وَلنَحمِل خَطاياكُم وَما هُم بِحامِلينَ مِن خَطاياهُم مِن شَيءٍ ۖ إِنَّهُم لَكاذِبونَ
Those who disbelieve say to the believers, “Follow our path, and we will carry your sins.” Yet they can’t carry any of their sins. They are liars.
وَلَيَحمِلُنَّ أَثقالَهُم وَأَثقالًا مَعَ أَثقالِهِم ۖ وَلَيُسأَلُنَّ يَومَ القِيامَةِ عَمّا كانوا يَفتَرونَ
They will carry their own burdens, and other burdens along with their own. And on Resurrection Day, they will be questioned about their false assertions.
