وَمَا جَعَلۡنَآ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلنَّارِ إِلَّا مَلَٰٓئِكَةٗۖ وَمَا جَعَلۡنَا عِدَّتَهُمۡ إِلَّا فِتۡنَةٗ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لِيَسۡتَيۡقِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَيَزۡدَادَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِيمَٰنٗا وَلَا يَرۡتَابَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ وَلِيَقُولَ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٞ وَٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ مَاذَآ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَٰذَا مَثَلٗاۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُضِلُّ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَهۡدِي مَن يَشَآءُۚ وَمَا يَعۡلَمُ جُنُودَ رَبِّكَ إِلَّا هُوَۚ وَمَا هِيَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرَىٰ لِلۡبَشَرِ

31. We have appointed only angels to be the wardens of the Fire, and We have specified their number only as a trial for the pagans and that those (Jews and Nazarenes) who have been given the Scripture may be certain and the believers may increase in Faith, and those who have been given the Scripture and the believers may not be in doubt, and so that those in whose hearts is a sickness (of hypocrisy) and the pagans may say: "What does Allah mean by this example?" Thus does Allah (justly) leave astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. No one knows the hosts of (Allah) your Lord except Him. This is only a Reminder to mankind.

إِنَّهَا لَإِحۡدَى ٱلۡكُبَرِ

Umurongo: 36

نَذِيرٗا لِّلۡبَشَرِ

إِلَّآ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡيَمِينِ

39. Except the people of the right hand,

Umurongo: 40

فِي جَنَّٰتٖ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ

40. (Who will be) in gardens - they will ask each other,

Umurongo: 41

عَنِ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ

41. About the wicked:

Umurongo: 42

مَا سَلَكَكُمۡ فِي سَقَرَ

42. What has brought you into Hell?

Umurongo: 43

قَالُواْ لَمۡ نَكُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُصَلِّينَ

43. They will say: We were not of those who prayed;

Umurongo: 44

وَلَمۡ نَكُ نُطۡعِمُ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينَ

44. Nor did we feed the poor,

Umurongo: 45

وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ ٱلۡخَآئِضِينَ

45. We used to indulge in falsehood with those who indulged in it.

Umurongo: 46

وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ

46. And we used to deny the Day of (Judgment and) Recompense,

Umurongo: 47

حَتَّىٰٓ أَتَىٰنَا ٱلۡيَقِينُ

47. Until there came to us the certainty (of death).

Umurongo: 48

فَمَا تَنفَعُهُمۡ شَفَٰعَةُ ٱلشَّٰفِعِينَ

48. So the intercession of intercessors will not benefit them.

Umurongo: 49

فَمَا لَهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلتَّذۡكِرَةِ مُعۡرِضِينَ

49. What is the matter with them, that they turn away from the Reminder (this Qur’an).

Umurongo: 50

كَأَنَّهُمۡ حُمُرٞ مُّسۡتَنفِرَةٞ

50. Like frightened (wild) donkeys.

Umurongo: 51

فَرَّتۡ مِن قَسۡوَرَةِۭ

51. Fleeing from a lion³?

3. If you refuse good advice, you are asking for trouble; follow it and you are safe. The teachings of the Qur’an and Sunnah are a fountain of life. Be good and trusted, as those who can't be trusted are on the road to ruin. Bad people are destroyed by their rejection of faith. But whoever obeys Allah (God) and His messenger Muhammad will have security, and will be safe, with no reason to be afraid. If you obey the majority of those who live on earth, they will lead you away from God's path. They only follow idle fancies, indulging in conjecture.

Umurongo: 52

بَلۡ يُرِيدُ كُلُّ ٱمۡرِيٕٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ أَن يُؤۡتَىٰ صُحُفٗا مُّنَشَّرَةٗ

52. Rather, every one of them wants that he may be given (Divine) scrolls spread out.

Umurongo: 53

كَلَّاۖ بَل لَّا يَخَافُونَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةَ

53. No, But they do not fear the Hereafter.

Umurongo: 54

كَلَّآ إِنَّهُۥ تَذۡكِرَةٞ

54. No, it (this Qur’an) is indeed a Reminder.

Umurongo: 55

فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ

55. So whoever wills may take heed.

Umurongo: 56

وَمَا يَذۡكُرُونَ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُۚ هُوَ أَهۡلُ ٱلتَّقۡوَىٰ وَأَهۡلُ ٱلۡمَغۡفِرَةِ

56. But they will not take heed unless Allah so wills. He is (the One) worthy to be feared, and worthy to forgive.
