حمٓ

1. Ha Meem¹.

1. The Qur’an is made up of such letters from the Arabic alphabet. The Arabs at the time of revelation were the unrivalled masters of the Arabic language and yet when challenged were totally unable to bring anything like the Qur’an. Despite this fact, the inimitable nature of the Qur’an and its divine source, God knows best the meaning of these disjointed Arabic letters.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 2

وَٱلۡكِتَٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِينِ

2. By the clear Book²:

2. The clear Book is the Qur’an whose verses are clear with regards to its language and rulings, and all its meanings. A Book whose Truth is evident and which clears up that which is indefinite and inexact.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 3

إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَٰهُ قُرۡءَٰنًا عَرَبِيّٗا لَّعَلَّكُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ

3. We have made it an Arabic Qur’an (i.e., recitation) that you may understand.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 4

وَإِنَّهُۥ فِيٓ أُمِّ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ لَدَيۡنَا لَعَلِيٌّ حَكِيمٌ

4. It (the Qur’an) is in the Master Book³ with Us, Most Exalted, full of Wisdom.

3. i.e., the Preserved Tablet

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 5

أَفَنَضۡرِبُ عَنكُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَ صَفۡحًا أَن كُنتُمۡ قَوۡمٗا مُّسۡرِفِينَ

5. Shall We then turn away the Reminder (this Qur’an) from you altogether just because you are a transgressing people?

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 6

وَكَمۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مِن نَّبِيّٖ فِي ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

6. How many a Prophet did We sent among the former people?

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 7

وَمَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن نَّبِيٍّ إِلَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ

7. There did not come to them a Prophet but they mocked at him.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 8

فَأَهۡلَكۡنَآ أَشَدَّ مِنۡهُم بَطۡشٗا وَمَضَىٰ مَثَلُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

8. We destroyed those who were stronger than these (pagans) in power, and the example of the predecessors have already been related,

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 9

وَلَئِن سَأَلۡتَهُم مَّنۡ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ خَلَقَهُنَّ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ

9. (Muhammad), if you ask them: Who created the heavens and the earth? They will certainly say: (Allah), the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing One, has created them;

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 10

ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ مَهۡدٗا وَجَعَلَ لَكُمۡ فِيهَا سُبُلٗا لَّعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ

10. It is He (Allah) Who has made for you the earth as a cradle, and made for you therein pathways that you may find your way;

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 11

وَٱلَّذِي نَزَّلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءَۢ بِقَدَرٖ فَأَنشَرۡنَا بِهِۦ بَلۡدَةٗ مَّيۡتٗاۚ كَذَٰلِكَ تُخۡرَجُونَ

11. It is He (Allah) Who sends down water (rain) from the sky according to a measure, then We revive thereby a dead land. Thus will you be brought forth (from the graves);

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 12

وَٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلۡأَزۡوَٰجَ كُلَّهَا وَجَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡفُلۡكِ وَٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمِ مَا تَرۡكَبُونَ

12. It is He (Allah) Who created pairs of all things, and made for you ships and cattle on which you ride,

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 13

لِتَسۡتَوُۥاْ عَلَىٰ ظُهُورِهِۦ ثُمَّ تَذۡكُرُواْ نِعۡمَةَ رَبِّكُمۡ إِذَا ٱسۡتَوَيۡتُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ وَتَقُولُواْ سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَٰذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُۥ مُقۡرِنِينَ

13. That you may settle yourselves on their backs, then remember the Favor of (Allah) your Lord when you have settled on them, and say: "Glory be to Allah Who has subjected this to us, and we could not have subdued it (ourselves);

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 14

وَإِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا لَمُنقَلِبُونَ

14. And to (Allah) our Lord we must return."

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 15

وَجَعَلُواْ لَهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِهِۦ جُزۡءًاۚ إِنَّ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ لَكَفُورٞ مُّبِينٌ

15. Yet they (the pagans) assign to Him a part of His creation⁴. Man is clearly ungrateful (denier).

4. By claiming that the angels are the daughters of Allah.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 16

أَمِ ٱتَّخَذَ مِمَّا يَخۡلُقُ بَنَاتٖ وَأَصۡفَىٰكُم بِٱلۡبَنِينَ

16. Has He (Allah) taken daughters for Himself of what He Himself creates, and chosen for you to have sons?

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 17

وَإِذَا بُشِّرَ أَحَدُهُم بِمَا ضَرَبَ لِلرَّحۡمَٰنِ مَثَلٗا ظَلَّ وَجۡهُهُۥ مُسۡوَدّٗا وَهُوَ كَظِيمٌ

17. When one of them (the pagans) is given the good news of (baby a girl) the like of which he attributes to (Allah) the Most Compassionate, his face (that pagan) becomes dark, and he is full of rage.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 18

أَوَمَن يُنَشَّؤُاْ فِي ٱلۡحِلۡيَةِ وَهُوَ فِي ٱلۡخِصَامِ غَيۡرُ مُبِينٖ

18. (Do they then attribute to Allah) that which is brought up in adornment, while in dispute cannot make themselves clear.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 19

وَجَعَلُواْ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ عِبَٰدُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ إِنَٰثًاۚ أَشَهِدُواْ خَلۡقَهُمۡۚ سَتُكۡتَبُ شَهَٰدَتُهُمۡ وَيُسۡـَٔلُونَ

19. (Yet) they claim that the angels - who are servants of (Allah) the Most Compassionate - to be female (divinities). Did they witness their creation? Their statement will be written down, and they will be questioned.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 20

وَقَالُواْ لَوۡ شَآءَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ مَا عَبَدۡنَٰهُمۗ مَّا لَهُم بِذَٰلِكَ مِنۡ عِلۡمٍۖ إِنۡ هُمۡ إِلَّا يَخۡرُصُونَ

20. They say: "If (Allah) the Most Compassionate had willed, we would never have worshiped them (i.e., idols)." They have no knowledge of that; they do nothing but guess.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 21

أَمۡ ءَاتَيۡنَٰهُمۡ كِتَٰبٗا مِّن قَبۡلِهِۦ فَهُم بِهِۦ مُسۡتَمۡسِكُونَ

21. Or have We given them a Scripture before it (this Qur’an) so that they hold fast to it?

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 22

بَلۡ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا وَجَدۡنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا عَلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٖ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم مُّهۡتَدُونَ

22. Rather, they say: "We found our fathers on a faith (of worshiping idols), and we are guided by their footsteps (and ways)."

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 23

وَكَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مِن قَبۡلِكَ فِي قَرۡيَةٖ مِّن نَّذِيرٍ إِلَّا قَالَ مُتۡرَفُوهَآ إِنَّا وَجَدۡنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا عَلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٖ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم مُّقۡتَدُونَ

23. Thus We did not send before you any warner in a town, but those affluent people in it said: "We found our fathers on a way, and we are followers of their footsteps."

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 24

۞ قَٰلَ أَوَلَوۡ جِئۡتُكُم بِأَهۡدَىٰ مِمَّا وَجَدتُّمۡ عَلَيۡهِ ءَابَآءَكُمۡۖ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا بِمَآ أُرۡسِلۡتُم بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ

24. (The warner) said: "Even if I bring to you a better guide than that (religion) on which you found your fathers?" They said: "We are deniers in that with which you are sent."

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 25

فَٱنتَقَمۡنَا مِنۡهُمۡۖ فَٱنظُرۡ كَيۡفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

25. So We took retribution from them, then see how was the end of the deniers.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 26

وَإِذۡ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمُ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوۡمِهِۦٓ إِنَّنِي بَرَآءٞ مِّمَّا تَعۡبُدُونَ

26. When Abraham said to his father and his people: "I strongly renounce what you worship,

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 27

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِي فَطَرَنِي فَإِنَّهُۥ سَيَهۡدِينِ

27. Except Him⁵ Who created me, He will certainly guide me.

5. I.e. I worship none but Allâh Alone.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 28

وَجَعَلَهَا كَلِمَةَۢ بَاقِيَةٗ فِي عَقِبِهِۦ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَرۡجِعُونَ

28. And he made it⁶ a word remaining among his descendants that they may return to it⁷.

6. I.e., that you shall not take any other gods besides Allah.
7. When they slip and then repent to Allah or receive admonition.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 29

بَلۡ مَتَّعۡتُ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَءَابَآءَهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ جَآءَهُمُ ٱلۡحَقُّ وَرَسُولٞ مُّبِينٞ

29. But I let these (pagans) and their fathers to enjoy until there came to them the Truth and a clear messenger⁸.

8. i.e., the Prophet Muhammad

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 30

وَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمُ ٱلۡحَقُّ قَالُواْ هَٰذَا سِحۡرٞ وَإِنَّا بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ

30. But when there came to them the Truth they said: "This is magic, and we are, regarding it, deniers."

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 31

وَقَالُواْ لَوۡلَا نُزِّلَ هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٖ مِّنَ ٱلۡقَرۡيَتَيۡنِ عَظِيمٍ

31. And they said: "Why is not the Qur’an sent down to a man of importance from one of the two towns⁹?

9. Of Makkah and Ta’if in Arabia.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 32

أَهُمۡ يَقۡسِمُونَ رَحۡمَتَ رَبِّكَۚ نَحۡنُ قَسَمۡنَا بَيۡنَهُم مَّعِيشَتَهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَاۚ وَرَفَعۡنَا بَعۡضَهُمۡ فَوۡقَ بَعۡضٖ دَرَجَٰتٖ لِّيَتَّخِذَ بَعۡضُهُم بَعۡضٗا سُخۡرِيّٗاۗ وَرَحۡمَتُ رَبِّكَ خَيۡرٞ مِّمَّا يَجۡمَعُونَ

32. Do they distribute the Mercy of (Allah) your Lord? It is We Who have distributed among them their livelihood in the life of this world, and We have raised some of them above others in degrees, that they may serve one another. The Mercy of (Allah) your Lord is better than what they amass.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 33

وَلَوۡلَآ أَن يَكُونَ ٱلنَّاسُ أُمَّةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ لَّجَعَلۡنَا لِمَن يَكۡفُرُ بِٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ لِبُيُوتِهِمۡ سُقُفٗا مِّن فِضَّةٖ وَمَعَارِجَ عَلَيۡهَا يَظۡهَرُونَ

33. Were it not that all people would become one community¹⁰, We would have made for those who deny (Allah) the Most  Compassionate, for their houses, ceilings out of silver and elevators by which they ascend up.

10. I.e., all deniers desiring only the life of this world.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 34

وَلِبُيُوتِهِمۡ أَبۡوَٰبٗا وَسُرُرًا عَلَيۡهَا يَتَّكِـُٔونَ

34. And for their houses doors and couches (of silver) on which they recline,

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 35

وَزُخۡرُفٗاۚ وَإِن كُلُّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمَّا مَتَٰعُ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَاۚ وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةُ عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ

35. And (other) ornaments of gold. All these are only a (temporary) enjoyment of this worldly life. But the Hereafter with (Allah) your Lord is only for the pious¹¹.  

11. Who keep to the Commandments of Allah and abstain from what He has prohibited.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 36

وَمَن يَعۡشُ عَن ذِكۡرِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ نُقَيِّضۡ لَهُۥ شَيۡطَٰنٗا فَهُوَ لَهُۥ قَرِينٞ

36. Whoever turns away blindly from the remembrance of (Allah) the Most Compassionate, We appoint for him a devil, so he becomes his associate (increasing him in sin).

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 37

وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَيَصُدُّونَهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَيَحۡسَبُونَ أَنَّهُم مُّهۡتَدُونَ

37. They will prevent them from the right Path (of Islam), while they think that they are rightly guided (so they do not repent);

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 38

حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَنَا قَالَ يَٰلَيۡتَ بَيۡنِي وَبَيۡنَكَ بُعۡدَ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقَيۡنِ فَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡقَرِينُ

38. Until when he comes to Us, he (the denier will) say (to his appointed devil): "Would that between me and you there were the distance of the East and the West. What a wretched companion you were."

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 39

وَلَن يَنفَعَكُمُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ إِذ ظَّلَمۡتُمۡ أَنَّكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡعَذَابِ مُشۡتَرِكُونَ

39. It will not benefit you this Day as you worked iniquity¹², that you are sharers in the Torment.

12. By associating partners with Allah in worship or committing other deadly sins.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 40

أَفَأَنتَ تُسۡمِعُ ٱلصُّمَّ أَوۡ تَهۡدِي ٱلۡعُمۡيَ وَمَن كَانَ فِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٖ

40. Can you make the deaf hear or guide the blind and him who is in manifest error?

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 41

فَإِمَّا نَذۡهَبَنَّ بِكَ فَإِنَّا مِنۡهُم مُّنتَقِمُونَ

41. Even if We take you away (in death), stil We shall take retribution on them;

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 42

أَوۡ نُرِيَنَّكَ ٱلَّذِي وَعَدۡنَٰهُمۡ فَإِنَّا عَلَيۡهِم مُّقۡتَدِرُونَ

42. Or show you that (torment) which We have threatened them. We are certainly dominant over them all.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 43

فَٱسۡتَمۡسِكۡ بِٱلَّذِيٓ أُوحِيَ إِلَيۡكَۖ إِنَّكَ عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٖ مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ

43. So hold fast (Muhammad) to that which has been revealed to you (this Qur’an). You are certainly on a right Path.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 44

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَذِكۡرٞ لَّكَ وَلِقَوۡمِكَۖ وَسَوۡفَ تُسۡـَٔلُونَ

44. It (the Qur’an) is a Reminder to you and your people, and you will all be questioned.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 45

وَسۡـَٔلۡ مَنۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مِن قَبۡلِكَ مِن رُّسُلِنَآ أَجَعَلۡنَا مِن دُونِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ءَالِهَةٗ يُعۡبَدُونَ

45. Ask those of Our messengers whom We sent before you: "Did We ever appoint gods to be worshiped besides (Allah) the Most Compassionate?"

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 46

وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مُوسَىٰ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ إِلَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَمَلَإِيْهِۦ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَسُولُ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

46. We sent Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his council, and he said: "I am the messenger of (Allah) the Sovereign Lord of all that exists (of mankind, jinn, angels, etc)."

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 47

فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُم بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ إِذَا هُم مِّنۡهَا يَضۡحَكُونَ

47. But when he (Moses) came to them with Our signs, at once they laughed at them.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 48

وَمَا نُرِيهِم مِّنۡ ءَايَةٍ إِلَّا هِيَ أَكۡبَرُ مِنۡ أُخۡتِهَاۖ وَأَخَذۡنَٰهُم بِٱلۡعَذَابِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَرۡجِعُونَ

48. We did not show them a Sign but it was greater than its fellow. We seized them with torment that they may repent.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 49

وَقَالُواْ يَٰٓأَيُّهَ ٱلسَّاحِرُ ٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ بِمَا عَهِدَ عِندَكَ إِنَّنَا لَمُهۡتَدُونَ

49. They said (to Moses): "O sorcerer¹³, invoke your Lord for us, as Allah has made the covenant with you. (If He removes this torment from us) we will certainly accept guidance."

13. i.e., man of vast learning

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 50

فَلَمَّا كَشَفۡنَا عَنۡهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابَ إِذَا هُمۡ يَنكُثُونَ

50. But when We removed from them the torment, at once they broke the pledge.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 51

وَنَادَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنُ فِي قَوۡمِهِۦ قَالَ يَٰقَوۡمِ أَلَيۡسَ لِي مُلۡكُ مِصۡرَ وَهَٰذِهِ ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِيٓۚ أَفَلَا تُبۡصِرُونَ

51. And Pharaoh proclaimed among his people: "O my people, is not the kingdom of Egypt mine? And these streams flow beneath me, do you not then see (my grandeur)?

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 52

أَمۡ أَنَا۠ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِي هُوَ مَهِينٞ وَلَا يَكَادُ يُبِينُ

52. Am I not better than this lowly man (Moses) who can hardly express himself?

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 53

فَلَوۡلَآ أُلۡقِيَ عَلَيۡهِ أَسۡوِرَةٞ مِّن ذَهَبٍ أَوۡ جَآءَ مَعَهُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ مُقۡتَرِنِينَ

53. Why then have not bracelets of gold been placed upon him, or why have there not come with him angels as companions?"

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 54

فَٱسۡتَخَفَّ قَوۡمَهُۥ فَأَطَاعُوهُۚ إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ قَوۡمٗا فَٰسِقِينَ

54. So he (Pharaoh) bluffed his people, and they obeyed him. They were a rebellious people (against Allah).

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 55

فَلَمَّآ ءَاسَفُونَا ٱنتَقَمۡنَا مِنۡهُمۡ فَأَغۡرَقۡنَٰهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ

55. When they angered Us, We took (Divine) Retribution on them, so We drowned them all together,

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 56

فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُمۡ سَلَفٗا وَمَثَلٗا لِّلۡأٓخِرِينَ

56. Thus We made them a precedent and an example for the later generations.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 57

۞ وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَ مَثَلًا إِذَا قَوۡمُكَ مِنۡهُ يَصِدُّونَ

57. When the son of Mary (Jesus Christ) was quoted as an example¹⁴, your people laughed out (at the example)¹⁵.

14. Of being worshiped along with Allah.
15. Arguing that Jesus will be in Hell as well! The Prophet replied that the verse was talking exclusively about idols, adding that Jesus himself did not ask to be worshiped. 

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 58

وَقَالُوٓاْ ءَأَٰلِهَتُنَا خَيۡرٌ أَمۡ هُوَۚ مَا ضَرَبُوهُ لَكَ إِلَّا جَدَلَۢاۚ بَلۡ هُمۡ قَوۡمٌ خَصِمُونَ

58. They (the idolaters) said: "Are our gods better, or he (Jesus)?" They did not quote it (the comparison) except for (mere) dispute, rather they are a quarrelsome people.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 59

إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا عَبۡدٌ أَنۡعَمۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ وَجَعَلۡنَٰهُ مَثَلٗا لِّبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ

59. Jesus was no more than a humble being (servant and messenger of Allah) on whom We bestowed Favor (Prophethood). We made him an example for the children of Israel.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 60

وَلَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلۡنَا مِنكُم مَّلَٰٓئِكَةٗ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ يَخۡلُفُونَ

60. If We so willed, We could have made (instead) of you angels to be successors on the earth.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 61

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَعِلۡمٞ لِّلسَّاعَةِ فَلَا تَمۡتَرُنَّ بِهَا وَٱتَّبِعُونِۚ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٞ مُّسۡتَقِيمٞ

61. Jesus is a known sign¹⁶ of (the approaching of) the Hour (of Doom), so have no doubt about it, and follow me (in Islamic Monotheism) - this is the right Path.

16. I.e., in his second coming to the earth. Muhammad, God's Messenger (ﷺ) said: There is no prophet between me and him, that is, Jesus. He will descent (to the earth). When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium height, reddish and fair, wearing two light yellow garments, looking as if drops were falling down from his head though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the cause of Islam. He will break the cross declaring the end of that wrong doctrine, kill the swine indicating prohibition of consuming pork, and abolish the tax. Allah will end all religions except Islam. Jesus will kill the Antichrist and will live on the earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims will pray funeral prayer over him.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 62

وَلَا يَصُدَّنَّكُمُ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمۡ عَدُوّٞ مُّبِينٞ

62. Let not Satan prevent you (from the right Path of Islam), for he is an open enemy to you.

ߟߝߊߙߌ ߘߏ߫: 63
