لقمان
Verse 20

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.

Verse 21

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?

Verse 22

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.

Verse 23

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.

Verse 24

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.

Verse 26

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.

Verse 27

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.

Verse 28

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.

Verse 29

أَلَم تَرَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يولِجُ اللَّيلَ فِي النَّهارِ وَيولِجُ النَّهارَ فِي اللَّيلِ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمسَ وَالقَمَرَ كُلٌّ يَجري إِلىٰ أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ بِما تَعمَلونَ خَبيرٌ

Don’t you see how God merges night into day and day into night? How He subjected the sun and the moon, each running for a specified period, and that God is fully aware of your deeds?

Verse 30

ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الحَقُّ وَأَنَّ ما يَدعونَ مِن دونِهِ الباطِلُ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ العَلِيُّ الكَبيرُ

This is because God is the Absolute Truth, and anything that they invoke beside Him is false. God is the Exalted, the Great.
