غافر
Verse 48

قالَ الَّذينَ استَكبَروا إِنّا كُلٌّ فيها إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَد حَكَمَ بَينَ العِبادِ

The arrogant will reply, “We are all in it —God has already judged among the beings.”

Verse 49

وَقالَ الَّذينَ فِي النّارِ لِخَزَنَةِ جَهَنَّمَ ادعوا رَبَّكُم يُخَفِّف عَنّا يَومًا مِنَ العَذابِ

Those in the Fire will beg the keepers of Hell, “Implore your Lord to lessen our suffering for just one day.”

Verse 50

قالوا أَوَلَم تَكُ تَأتيكُم رُسُلُكُم بِالبَيِّناتِ ۖ قالوا بَلىٰ ۚ قالوا فَادعوا ۗ وَما دُعاءُ الكافِرينَ إِلّا في ضَلالٍ

They will respond, “Didn’t your messengers come to you with clear signs?” They will reply, “Yes.” They will say, “Then pray, but the prayers of the unbelievers are only in vain.”

Verse 51

إِنّا لَنَنصُرُ رُسُلَنا وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا فِي الحَياةِ الدُّنيا وَيَومَ يَقومُ الأَشهادُ

We will surely aid Our messengers and those who believe, in the worldly life and on the Day when the witnesses arise.

Verse 52

يَومَ لا يَنفَعُ الظّالِمينَ مَعذِرَتُهُم ۖ وَلَهُمُ اللَّعنَةُ وَلَهُم سوءُ الدّارِ

The Day when their excuses won’t benefit the wrongdoers. For them is a curse, and they will have the worst dwelling.

وَلَقَد آتَينا موسَى الهُدىٰ وَأَورَثنا بَني إِسرائيلَ الكِتابَ

We gave Moses the guidance, and We made the Children of Israel inherit the Scripture.

Verse 54

هُدًى وَذِكرىٰ لِأُولِي الأَلبابِ

A guide and a reminder for people of understanding.

Verse 55

فَاصبِر إِنَّ وَعدَ اللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَاستَغفِر لِذَنبِكَ وَسَبِّح بِحَمدِ رَبِّكَ بِالعَشِيِّ وَالإِبكارِ

So be patient, the promise of God is truth. So ask forgiveness for your sin, and glorify your Lord with praise, morning and evening.

Verse 56

إِنَّ الَّذينَ يُجادِلونَ في آياتِ اللَّهِ بِغَيرِ سُلطانٍ أَتاهُم ۙ إِن في صُدورِهِم إِلّا كِبرٌ ما هُم بِبالِغيهِ ۚ فَاستَعِذ بِاللَّهِ ۖ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّميعُ البَصيرُ

Those who dispute God’s revelations without any authority given to them, nothing resides in their breasts but vainglory which they will never achieve. So, seek refuge in God. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.

Verse 57

لَخَلقُ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ أَكبَرُ مِن خَلقِ النّاسِ وَلـٰكِنَّ أَكثَرَ النّاسِ لا يَعلَمونَ

The creation of the heavens and the earth is greater than the creation of humankind, but most people don’t know.

Verse 58

وَما يَستَوِي الأَعمىٰ وَالبَصيرُ وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ وَلَا المُسيءُ ۚ قَليلًا ما تَتَذَكَّرونَ

Not equal are the blind and the seeing, nor are those who believe and perform good deeds and the wrongdoers. How little you reflect.
