وَوَهَبنا لَهُ إِسحاقَ وَيَعقوبَ ۚ كُلًّا هَدَينا ۚ وَنوحًا هَدَينا مِن قَبلُ ۖ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِ داوودَ وَسُلَيمانَ وَأَيّوبَ وَيوسُفَ وَموسىٰ وَهارونَ ۚ وَكَذٰلِكَ نَجزِي المُحسِنينَ

We granted him Isaac and Jacob; each one We guided. We also guided Noah before. And from his offspring, David, Solomon, Job, Joseph, Moses, and Aaron. We thus reward the good-doers.

وَزَكَرِيّا وَيَحيىٰ وَعيسىٰ وَإِلياسَ ۖ كُلٌّ مِنَ الصّالِحينَ

Also, Zechariah, John, Jesus, and Elias—all of the virtuous.

وَإِسماعيلَ وَاليَسَعَ وَيونُسَ وَلوطًا ۚ وَكُلًّا فَضَّلنا عَلَى العالَمينَ

And Ishmael, Elisha, Jonah, and Lot—and each, we preferred over the worlds.

وَمِن آبائِهِم وَذُرِّيّاتِهِم وَإِخوانِهِم ۖ وَاجتَبَيناهُم وَهَدَيناهُم إِلىٰ صِراطٍ مُستَقيمٍ

And among their ancestors, descendants, and brothers—We chose them, and We guided them to a straight path.

ذٰلِكَ هُدَى اللَّهِ يَهدي بِهِ مَن يَشاءُ مِن عِبادِهِ ۚ وَلَو أَشرَكوا لَحَبِطَ عَنهُم ما كانوا يَعمَلونَ

This is God’s guidance; with it, He guides whomever He wills among His servants. If they were to associate others with Him, then all their deeds would be nullified.

أُولـٰئِكَ الَّذينَ هَدَى اللَّهُ ۖ فَبِهُداهُمُ اقتَدِه ۗ قُل لا أَسأَلُكُم عَلَيهِ أَجرًا ۖ إِن هُوَ إِلّا ذِكرىٰ لِلعالَمينَ

These are the ones whom God has guided, so emulate their guidance. Say, “I ask for no compensation for it. This is but a reminder to all mankind.”

وَما قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدرِهِ إِذ قالوا ما أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلىٰ بَشَرٍ مِن شَيءٍ ۗ قُل مَن أَنزَلَ الكِتابَ الَّذي جاءَ بِهِ موسىٰ نورًا وَهُدًى لِلنّاسِ ۖ تَجعَلونَهُ قَراطيسَ تُبدونَها وَتُخفونَ كَثيرًا ۖ وَعُلِّمتُم ما لَم تَعلَموا أَنتُم وَلا آباؤُكُم ۖ قُلِ اللَّهُ ۖ ثُمَّ ذَرهُم في خَوضِهِم يَلعَبونَ

They don’t appraise God with true appraisal when they say, “God didn’t reveal anything to any human.” Say, “Then, who revealed the Scripture which Moses brought, a light and guidance for humanity? You treat it as mere sheets of paper, showing some and concealing much. You were taught things that neither you nor your ancestors knew before.” Say, “God.” Then, leave them playing in their vain discussions.

وَهـٰذا كِتابٌ أَنزَلناهُ مُبارَكٌ مُصَدِّقُ الَّذي بَينَ يَدَيهِ وَلِتُنذِرَ أُمَّ القُرىٰ وَمَن حَولَها ۚ وَالَّذينَ يُؤمِنونَ بِالآخِرَةِ يُؤمِنونَ بِهِ ۖ وَهُم عَلىٰ صَلاتِهِم يُحافِظونَ

We revealed this blessed Scripture, confirming what preceded it, that you may warn the Mother of Cities and those around it. Those who believe in the Hereafter believe in it, and are constant in their prayers.

وَمَن أَظلَمُ مِمَّنِ افتَرىٰ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا أَو قالَ أوحِيَ إِلَيَّ وَلَم يوحَ إِلَيهِ شَيءٌ وَمَن قالَ سَأُنزِلُ مِثلَ ما أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ ۗ وَلَو تَرىٰ إِذِ الظّالِمونَ في غَمَراتِ المَوتِ وَالمَلائِكَةُ باسِطو أَيديهِم أَخرِجوا أَنفُسَكُمُ ۖ اليَومَ تُجزَونَ عَذابَ الهونِ بِما كُنتُم تَقولونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ غَيرَ الحَقِّ وَكُنتُم عَن آياتِهِ تَستَكبِرونَ

Who is more unjust than one who fabricates lies against God or says, “A revelation was given to me,” when nothing was revealed to him, or who says, “I can reveal the like of what God has revealed?” If only you could see the wrongdoers in the throes of death, with the angels extending their hands, saying, “Yield up your souls! Today, are you being repaid with a punishment of humiliation for the lies you spoke against God, and for your being scornful to His signs.”

وَلَقَد جِئتُمونا فُرادىٰ كَما خَلَقناكُم أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَتَرَكتُم ما خَوَّلناكُم وَراءَ ظُهورِكُم ۖ وَما نَرىٰ مَعَكُم شُفَعاءَكُمُ الَّذينَ زَعَمتُم أَنَّهُم فيكُم شُرَكاءُ ۚ لَقَد تَقَطَّعَ بَينَكُم وَضَلَّ عَنكُم ما كُنتُم تَزعُمونَ

“You’ve come to Us alone, as We created you the first time, leaving behind everything We had bestowed upon you. We don’t see your supposed intercessors with you. The links between you and them have been severed, and all you presumed has let you down.”
