آیه: 67

هُوَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٖ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطۡفَةٖ ثُمَّ مِنۡ عَلَقَةٖ ثُمَّ يُخۡرِجُكُمۡ طِفۡلٗا ثُمَّ لِتَبۡلُغُوٓاْ أَشُدَّكُمۡ ثُمَّ لِتَكُونُواْ شُيُوخٗاۚ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُتَوَفَّىٰ مِن قَبۡلُۖ وَلِتَبۡلُغُوٓاْ أَجَلٗا مُّسَمّٗى وَلَعَلَّكُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ

67. It is He Who created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from a clot, then He brings you forth as a child, so that you may attain your maturity, then you may become old - and of you there are some who are caused to die before - so that you may reach an appointed term, and so that you may understand15.

15. The Oneness of God and His Power, and your Resurrection and thus become true believers.

آیه: 68

هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يُحۡيِۦ وَيُمِيتُۖ فَإِذَا قَضَىٰٓ أَمۡرٗا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ

68. It is He Who gives life and causes death. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it: ‘Be,’ and it is.

آیه: 69

أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُجَٰدِلُونَ فِيٓ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ أَنَّىٰ يُصۡرَفُونَ

69. Have you not seen those who dispute about the Signs of Allāh: How are they turned away "from the Truth'?

آیه: 70

ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِٱلۡكِتَٰبِ وَبِمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَا بِهِۦ رُسُلَنَاۖ فَسَوۡفَ يَعۡلَمُونَ

70. Those who deny the Book 'this Qur’an' and the message with which We have sent Our messengers16, they shall soon come to know 'the result of their denial';

16. I.e., to worship none but Allāh Alone sincerely, and to reject all false deities and to confess resurrection after the death and Paradise and Hell are existing.

آیه: 71

إِذِ ٱلۡأَغۡلَٰلُ فِيٓ أَعۡنَٰقِهِمۡ وَٱلسَّلَٰسِلُ يُسۡحَبُونَ

71. When the fetters and the chains will be on their necks, they will be dragged -

آیه: 72

فِي ٱلۡحَمِيمِ ثُمَّ فِي ٱلنَّارِ يُسۡجَرُونَ

72. Through boiling water, then in the Hellfire they will be burned.

آیه: 73

ثُمَّ قِيلَ لَهُمۡ أَيۡنَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تُشۡرِكُونَ

73. Then it will be said to them: "Where are the idols which you worshiped -

آیه: 74

مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِۖ قَالُواْ ضَلُّواْ عَنَّا بَل لَّمۡ نَكُن نَّدۡعُواْ مِن قَبۡلُ شَيۡـٔٗاۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُضِلُّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

74. Besides Allāh?" They will say: "They have abandoned us, rather, we had worshipped nothing." Thus does Allāh leave astray the deniers.

آیه: 75

ذَٰلِكُم بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَفۡرَحُونَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ بِغَيۡرِ ٱلۡحَقِّ وَبِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَمۡرَحُونَ

75. This is because you had been exulting on the earth unjustly, and that you used to behave insolently.

آیه: 76

ٱدۡخُلُوٓاْ أَبۡوَٰبَ جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَاۖ فَبِئۡسَ مَثۡوَى ٱلۡمُتَكَبِّرِينَ

76. Enter the gates of Gehinnom to abide therein. Evil is the Home of the arrogant.

آیه: 77

فَٱصۡبِرۡ إِنَّ وَعۡدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقّٞۚ فَإِمَّا نُرِيَنَّكَ بَعۡضَ ٱلَّذِي نَعِدُهُمۡ أَوۡ نَتَوَفَّيَنَّكَ فَإِلَيۡنَا يُرۡجَعُونَ

77. So be patient, the Promise of Allāh is always true. Should We make you see part of what We threaten them with, or should We cause you to die, to Us they will 'all' be returned 'for Judgment'.
