2.Was it a wonder to the mankind that We revealed to a man (Muhammad) from among themselves, saying: "Warn the people (who are heedless), and give good news to those who believe that theirs is a sincere footing with their Lord (Allāh3)." 'But' the disbelievers said: "This 'man' is certainly an obvious sorcerer.4"
3. A sincere footing is a sending forth of good deeds. Here it means that for the believers is felicity as has been earlier decreed by God and written in the Preserved Tablet for their sending forth of good deeds and believing in Muhammad (ﷺ) who guided them to the path that leads to Paradise. Safely treasuring up for themselves a fine foundation and noble position for the future, so that they may get a firm hold on the real life - life of the Hereafter.
4. They could only rationalize the bewildering effect of the Message of Islam by saying that it bewitches people.
3. Indeed, your Lord is Allāh, Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days then rose over the Throne, disposing the affairs (of all that exists). There is no intercessor except after His permission. That is Allāh, your Lord, so worship Him alone. Will you not then take heed?
4. To Him will be your (final) return altogether, Allah’s Promise, truly 'binding'. Surely He begins the creation, then He brings it back again (to life, after their death), so that He may justly reward those who believe and do good deeds. But those who deny 'the Truth', for them is a drink of scalding hot water and a painful torment, for their 'persistent' disbelieving.
5. It is He (Allāh) Who made the sun radiant and the moon a 'reflected' light, and has determined for it phases so that you may know the number of years and the reckoning 'of time'. Allāh did not create that except for Truth (and genuine purpose). He details the signs clear for a people who have knowledge.
6. The alternation of the night and day, and all that Allāh has created in the heavens and the earth, there are signs for a people who 'fear Allāh and' shun evil.
7. Indeed, those who do not hope in Our meeting and are content with this worldly life and content with it, and those who pay no attention to Our revelations:
9. Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds, their Lord 'Allāh' will guide them by their faith; there shall flow under them rivers, in gardens of bliss.
10. Their call in it will be: "Glory 'and Honor' be to You, O Allāh," and their greeting therein, "Peace"; and the concluding of their prayer: "All praise be to Allāh, the Lord of all beings."
11. If Allāh were to hasten to mankind ill (they invoke)5 as they would seek hastening of good, their term would have been already decreed to them, but We 'give respite and' leave those who hope not for Our Meeting in their transgression, blindly wandering on.
12. And when adversity touches man, he invokes us, whether lying on his side, sitting or standing; but when We relieve him of his hardship, he moves on as though he had never invoked Us to an adversity that touched him. Thus it is made fair seeming to the extravagant what they used (to) do.
13. We have indeed destroyed generations before you when they 'persistently' commited iniquites and their messengers had come to them with clear proofs, but they were not to believe. Thus do We recompense the guilty people.
15. When Our clear Verses are recited to them, those who do not expect Our Meeting say (to the Prophet): "Bring a Qur’an other than this or change it." Say: "It is not for me to change it of myself; I only follow that which is revealed to me. I fear, if I were to disobey (Allāh) my Lord, the torment of a grievous Day."
16. Say (Muhammad), "If Allah had so willed I would not have recited it to you, nor would He have made it known to you. I have stayed a lifetime among you before it6. Do you not then understand?
6. I.e., forty years before receiving any revelation.
18. They worship besides Allāh what can neither harm them nor benefit them, and they say: "These are our intercessors with Allāh." Say: "Do you (presume to) inform Allāh of what He knows not in the heavens and the earth?" Glory be to Him, and exalted be He above all that which they associate 'with Him as partners in worship'.
19. Mankind were but a single nation7,
then they differed. Had it not been a Word that went forth before from (Allāh) your Lord, the matter would have been immediately settled between them about what 'therein' they differed.
20. And they say:"Why has no (other) miraculous sign been sent down to him from his Lord8?" Say: "Surely the Unseen belongs only to Allah". So wait, I am with you among those who wait."
21. When We let mankind taste mercy after adversity has touched him, they have a plot against Our revelations. Say: "Allāh is the Most Swift in planning." Indeed, Our 'angelic' messengers record all that you plot.
22. It is He (Allāh) Who enables you to travel on land and sea; until when you are in the ships and they sail on with them in a pleasant breeze and they rejoice in it, 'suddenly' a violent wind comes, and the waves come to them from all sides, and they become certain that they are encompassed; they pray to Allāh, being sincere to Him in devotion 'saying': "If You deliver us from this, we will certainly be of the grateful ones."
23. But when He has delivered them, at once they rebel on the earth unjustly. O people, Your rebellion is against your own selves; a brief enjoyment of this worldly life, then to Us is your return, so We shall inform you of what you used to do.
24. The example of 'this' worldly life is only like rain We send down from the sky, so it mixed thereby the plants of the earth of which men and cattle eat; until, when the earth has taken on its adornment and is beautified, and its people think that they have all the powers of disposal over it, Our command reaches it by night or by day and We make it like a clean-mown harvest, as if it had not flourished yesterday. Thus do We explain the signs in detail for the people who reflect.
26. For those who do good is the excellent (reward) and more9. Darkness shall not cover their faces nor humiliation. These are the people of Paradise, they will abide therein forever.
9. The best reward that's the Paradise, and more is seeing the Honorable Face of Allāh. In that joy-filled moment when we see Allāh and know Him as He knows each of us, the Muslims. He will infuse us with the faith, hope, and love we need to stand firm, until we gaze at our Loving and Living God - Allāh. He is exalted, forever exalted, the King is the incomparable Highest in all His Attributes and we will praise Him. Allāh is our Lord and forever His truth shall reign. Heaven and earth rejoice in His great Name - Allāh -.
27. As for those who commit evil deeds, the reward of an evil deed is the like of it. Humiliation will cover them - they will have none to protect them from Allāh - as if their faces had been covered with patches of the darkest night. These are the occupants of the Hellfire. They will abide therein forever.
28. And the Day when We gather them all together, then We will say to those who associate others (with Allah in worship, stay in) your place, you and your associate-gods (idols)." Then We will separate between them, and their associate-gods (idols) will say: "It was not us that you worshipped!
30. There, every soul will be put to trial for what it did previously. They will be brought back to Allāh, their True Patron, and what they invented (of false gods) will desert them.
31. Ask (them): "Who provides for you from heaven and earth? Or Who controls hearing and sight and who brings the living out of the dead, and the dead out of the living, and who rules and regulates 'all that exists'? They will say: "Allāh." Say, then: "Will you not then guard yourselves against evil?"
34. Ask (them): "Is there any of your associate-gods (idols) begins creation, (cause it to die), and then bring it back (to life again)?" Say: "Allāh begins creation and brings it back." How are you then turned away?
35. Ask 'them': "there any of your associate-gods (idols) who guide you to the Truth? Say: "Allāh guides to the truth." Is He then Who guides to the Truth more worthy to be followed, or he who guides not unless he is guided? What is wrong with you? How do you judge (so unjustly)?
36. Most of them follow not but mere assumptions. Indeed, assumptions avails nothing against the Truth at all. Allāh is certainly All-Knowing of all that they do.
37. And it was not (possible) for this Qur'an to be produced by other than Allah , but rather it is a confirmation of what was before it (of Divine Scriptures) and provides a fully detailed explanation of (all the verdicts of) the Book; there is no doubt about it, (it is) from (Allāh) the Lord of all beings.
38. Or do they say: "He (Muhammad) has invented it (this Qur’an)?" Say: "Then bring one Chapter like it, and call upon whomever you can other than Allāh 'for help', if what you say is true."
39. Rather, they have denied that of which they did not encompass the knowledge and whose interpretation has not yet come to them. Thus did those before them deny (the Truth). See then how was the end of the unjust.
45. And the Day when He will gather them (after Resurrection) it will seem to them as though they had not stayed (in this world) but an hour of the day, getting 'mutually' acquainted between them. Lost indeed will be those who denied the Meeting with Allāh, for they were not 'rightly' guided.
46.And whether We show you 'Muhammad' some of what We threaten them with, or cause you to die11 (before that), to Us is their return. Then Allāh is a Witness to 'all' that they do.
11. They will not be able to escape Our Punishment.
47. For every nation there is a Messenger. When their Messenger comes, the matter will be judged between them fairly, and they will not be dealt with unjustly.12
12. By sending the Prophet Muhammad, Truth stands out clear from error: Those who believe him are saved but those who deny him are doomed.
49. Say (O Muhammad): "I do not possess for myself any harm or any benefit, except what Allāh wills." Every nation has a term. When their term comes, they cannot delay it for a moment, nor can they advance it.
54. If every soul that has done injustice15, had all that is in the earth, it would offer it for ransom, and they will declare (their) remorse (and repentance) when they see the torment, and the matter will be judged between them fairly, and they will not be dealt with unjustly.
15. By worshiping others besides Allāh and dying as such without repenting.
55. Oh, surely to Allāh belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. Oh, surely Allah’s Promise is true, but most of them do not know16.
16. Allāh Almighty rules Supreme and none can stop Him from bringing His punishment on the unbelievers into reality; but most people are oblivious to this and therefore doubt it.
57. O people, there has come to you an admonition from 'Allāh' your Lord and a healing for what is in the chests and a guidance and a mercy for the believers.
58. Say: "In the Bounty of Allāh (i.e., the Islamic Faith) and in His mercy (the Qur’an) - in that let them rejoice17; it is better than all (the worldly pleasures and wealth) that they amass18."
17. The source of true and lasting joy is from Allāh and by following His last and final messenger, prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him. It enables us to shine Allah’s light as we strive to bring joy to others, a joy that offers hope and strength to face trials.
18. Believers always need to remember Allah’s great bounty by which He guided them to Islam and gave them the gift of the Qur’an to which any worldly gain is not even remotely comparable. When the righteous prosper the city rejoices. When those who truly live by Islamic faith begin to influence a community, then this signals good news because it means Allah’s justice is taking hold. Greed diminishes. The poor find support. The oppressed are protected. Whenever Islam flourishes, then there’s joy and blessing in the city.
59. Say (O Muhammad, to those pagans): "Have you considered what Allāh has sent down for you of provision, so you make (a part) of it unlawful and (a part) lawful." Say: "Has Allāh permitted you to do so, or do you invent lies about Allāh?"
60. What will be the supposition of those who invent lies about Allāh on the Day of Resurrection? Indeed, Allāh is Bountiful towards the people, but most of them do not give thanks.
61.In whatever matter you (Prophet) may be engaged in, or whichever portion of the Qur’an you may be reciting, and whatever you (people) are doing of work, but We are Witnesses over you when you enter to it. Not ˹even˺ an atom’s weight on earth or in heaven escapes from your Lord, nor any thing less than that nor greater, but it is all in a clear Record.
62. Oh, surely, the allies of Allāh shall have no fear, nor shall they grieve19;
19. In the horrors of the Day of Resurrection that await them, nor shall they grieve over the worldly fortunes they have missed. So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and Allah knows that you need them. But seek first His Kingdom by keeping to His Commandments and avoiding evil, and all these things will be given to you as well through your efforts.
66. Oh, surely, to Allāh belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And they do not follow these who invoke other than Allāh, what so-called partners; they follow only conjecture, and they only guess.
67. It is He (Allāh) Who has made for you the night that you may rest therein, and the day bright. Indeed, there are Signs in this for a people who listen.
68. They say: "Allāh has taken for Himself a son." Glory be to Him! He is the Rich (free of all needs): To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. You have no authority for this (claim). Do you say against Allāh what you do not know?
70. (It is only) a brief enjoyment in this world, then to Us will be their 'final' return; then We shall make them taste the severe torment, for their 'persistent' disbelieving 'in the Truth'.
71. Recite to them (O Muhammad) the story of Noah, when he said to his people: "O my people, if my station and my reminding 'you' of the revelations of Allāh is hard on you - then I have relied upon Allah . So resolve together your decision and (call upon) your associate-gods. Then let not your decision be dark and dubious to you.Then carry it out upon me and do not give me respite.
72. If you then turn away, I have never asked for any reward from you. My reward is only with Allāh, and I am commanded to be of the Muslims (who submit to the Will of God).
73. But they rejected him, so We delivered him and those with him in the Ship, and We made them successors and drowned those who rejected Our revelations. Then see how was the end of those who were warned (but heeded not).
74. Then We sent after him messengers to their people, and they came to them with clear proofs, but they were not to believe in what they had rejected before. Thus We seal upon the hearts of the transgressors.
78. They said: "Have you come to us to turn us away from what we found our fathers upon, and (that) greatness in the land should be for you two (Moses and Aaron)? But we are not believers in you."
81. So when they cast down, Moses said to them: "What you have brought it 'is' mere magic. Allāh will certainly nullify it. Indeed, Allāh does not set aright the work of the corrupters."
83. But none believed in Moses except the offspring (i.e., youths) from his people, for fear of Pharaoh and their own chiefs, lest he should persecute them. Indeed, Pharaoh was high in the land, and he was indeed of the transgressors.
87. We inspired to Moses and his brother 'saying': "Designate 'certain' houses for your people in Egypt, and make your houses 'open and' place of worship, and keep up the prayer. Give good news to the believers."
88. Moses said: "Our Lord, You have given to Pharaoh and his council splendor and riches in this worldly life. Our Lord, they have gone far away from Your 'right' path (and persisted in their stubbornness and denial): Our Lord, destroy their wealth and harden their hearts, so that they will not believe until they see the painful torment.
89. 'Allāh' said: "The prayer of you both (i.e., Moses and Aaron) has indeed been accepted, so continue on the right course, and do not follow the path of those who have no knowledge.",
90. We made the children of Israel pass over the sea, then Pharaoh and his soldiers followed them in rebellion and transgression; until when drowning overtook him, 'Pharaoh' said: "I believe that there is no god 'worthy of worship' except Him 'Allāh' in Whom the children of Israel believe, and I am one of the Muslims."
93. And indeed We lodged the children of Israel in a goodly abode21, and We provided them with good things22; and they differed not until the knowledge had come to them23. Your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection about 'all' that in which they used to differ.
21. Levant and Egypt.
22. We shaded you with clouds and sent down to you manna and quails.
23. After the Torah came to them.
94. So if you are in doubt about 'these stories' that We have revealed to you24, then you may ask those who read the 'past' Scripture before you; certainly the Truth has come to you from your Lord, so be not of the doubters.
24. And that your name Muhammad is written in the Bible.
98. Why then was there not any town which should believed and thereupon benefited by its belief except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the torment of disgrace in this worldly life, and gave them enjoyment for a while.
102. Do they then wait for 'anything' but the like of the days of those who passed on before them? Say: "Wait then, I am too with you of those who wait."
104. Say 'Muhammad': "O people, if you are in doubt as to my religion, then (know that) I do not worship those whom you worship besides Allāh, but I worship Allāh 'alone' Who causes you to die, and I am commanded to be of the believers.
107. If Allāh touches you with harm, then there is none to remove it except Him19; and if He intends good for you, then there is none to repel His grace. He brings it to whom He wills of His servants - for He is the All-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
19. A group of people came to Muhammad, the Messenger of God (may peace and blessings be upon him). He accepted the pledge of allegiance of nine and did not accept it from one. They said: O Messenger of God, you accepted the pledge of nine but not of this one. He said: "He is wearing an amulet." So, he put his hand in and cut it, and thus, accepted his pledge and the Prophet said: "Whoever hangs an amulet has committed polytheism." Thus Making amulets, crosses, buying them, wearing them or weaving them into garments or putting them on walls or cars, and so on also come under the heading of prohibited idolatrous actions.
108. Say (Muhammad): "O people, indeed there has come to you the Truth from your Lord. So whoever is guided, he is guided only for the good of his own soul; and whoever goes astray, he goes astray only against it; and I am not a trustee over you.
