وَلا تُصَعِّر خَدَّكَ لِلنّاسِ وَلا تَمشِ فِي الأَرضِ مَرَحًا ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ مُختالٍ فَخورٍ
And don’t turn your cheek in scorn towards people, and don’t strut around exultantly on earth. God doesn’t like any arrogant boaster.
وَاقصِد في مَشيِكَ وَاغضُض مِن صَوتِكَ ۚ إِنَّ أَنكَرَ الأَصواتِ لَصَوتُ الحَميرِ
And walk modestly and lower your voice; the most unpleasant of sounds is the braying of donkeys.”
أَلَم تَرَوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ سَخَّرَ لَكُم ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَما فِي الأَرضِ وَأَسبَغَ عَلَيكُم نِعَمَهُ ظاهِرَةً وَباطِنَةً ۗ وَمِنَ النّاسِ مَن يُجادِلُ فِي اللَّهِ بِغَيرِ عِلمٍ وَلا هُدًى وَلا كِتابٍ مُنيرٍ
Don’t you see that God subjected everything in the heavens and on earth to you, and He showered upon you His visible and hidden blessings? Yet some argue about God without knowledge, guidance, and an enlightening scripture.
وَإِذا قيلَ لَهُمُ اتَّبِعوا ما أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ قالوا بَل نَتَّبِعُ ما وَجَدنا عَلَيهِ آباءَنا ۚ أَوَلَو كانَ الشَّيطانُ يَدعوهُم إِلىٰ عَذابِ السَّعيرِ
When they’re advised, “Follow what God revealed,” they respond, “No, we follow what we found our ancestors doing.” Even if Satan is leading them towards the torment of the Inferno?
وَمَن يُسلِم وَجهَهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحسِنٌ فَقَدِ استَمسَكَ بِالعُروَةِ الوُثقىٰ ۗ وَإِلَى اللَّهِ عاقِبَةُ الأُمورِ
Whoever submits completely to God and leads a righteous life has grasped the most secure handhold. The ultimate outcome of all matters is to God.
وَمَن كَفَرَ فَلا يَحزُنكَ كُفرُهُ ۚ إِلَينا مَرجِعُهُم فَنُنَبِّئُهُم بِما عَمِلوا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَليمٌ بِذاتِ الصُّدورِ
As for those who disbelieve, don’t let their disbelief sadden you. They will return to Us, and We will inform them of their deeds. God is fully aware of the contents of the hearts.
نُمَتِّعُهُم قَليلًا ثُمَّ نَضطَرُّهُم إِلىٰ عَذابٍ غَليظٍ
We give them little enjoyment, but ultimately, We will drive them to a harsh punishment.
وَلَئِن سَأَلتَهُم مَن خَلَقَ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضَ لَيَقولُنَّ اللَّهُ ۚ قُلِ الحَمدُ لِلَّهِ ۚ بَل أَكثَرُهُم لا يَعلَمونَ
If you ask them, “Who created the heavens and the earth?” They would answer, “God.” Say, “Praise be to God.” But most of them don’t understand.
لِلَّهِ ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الغَنِيُّ الحَميدُ
To God belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. God is the Rich, the Praiseworthy.
وَلَو أَنَّما فِي الأَرضِ مِن شَجَرَةٍ أَقلامٌ وَالبَحرُ يَمُدُّهُ مِن بَعدِهِ سَبعَةُ أَبحُرٍ ما نَفِدَت كَلِماتُ اللَّهِ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزيزٌ حَكيمٌ
Even if all the trees on earth were made into pens, and the ocean, supplemented by seven additional oceans, were turned into ink, God’s words wouldn’t be depleted. God is Exalted in Might and Wisdom.
ما خَلقُكُم وَلا بَعثُكُم إِلّا كَنَفسٍ واحِدَةٍ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَميعٌ بَصيرٌ
Your creation and resurrection are akin to that of a single soul. God is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
