2. The Qur’an is made up of such letters from the Arabic alphabet. The Arabs at the time of revelation were the unmatched masters of the Arabic language and yet when challenged were totally unable to bring anything like the Qur’an. Although these disjointed Arabic letters are referring to the inimitable nature of the Qur’an and its divine source, God knows best its meaning.
5. They say: "Our hearts are covered against what you call us to, there is a deafness in our ears, and a barrier between us and you, so do what you want; and so shall we do."
6. Say 'Muhammad': "I am only a human being like you. It is revealed to me that your god is only one God 'Allāh', so be upright to Him and seek forgiveness from Him. Woe to the polytheists:
10. He placed therein (i.e., the earth) firm mountains raising above it, and He blessed it, and measured therein its provisions in four days exactly for all those who ask.
11. Then (He) turned to the heaven when it was (yet) smoke, so He said to it and to the earth: "Come (into being), willingly or unwillingly. They said: "We come willingly."
12. So He completed them seven heavens in two Days, and inspired in each heaven its affair. We adorned the lower heaven with brilliant stars for beauty and as a protection. This is the Decree of 'Allāh' the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing.
13. But if they turn away (from you and your Message), tell them: "I have warned you of a thunderbolt like the thunderbolt (that fell upon the people) of ‘Aad and Thamud.
14. When their messengers came to them from before them and from behind them, saying, "worship none but Allāh", they said: "Had 'Allāh' our Lord willed, He would certainly have sent down angels. So we totally deny of that with which you are sent.
15. As for (the people of) ‘Aad, they were arrogant in the land without right, and they said: "Who is mightier in strength than us?" Did they not see that Allāh Who created them is mightier than them in strength, and they used to reject Our revelations.
16. So We sent upon them a furious wind in days of evil omen (for them), to make them taste the disgracing torment in this worldly life; but certainly the torment of the Hereafter will be more disgracing, and they will never be helped.
17. As for Thamud, We showed them the right way, but they preferred blindness over guidance, so the thunderbolt of disgracing torment seized them for what they used to commit (of sins) .
21. They will ask to their skin: "Why have you testified against us?" They will say: "Allāh caused us to speak, who made everything speak. He created you at first, and to Him you are returned."
22. You could not cover yourselves from your hearing, sight and skin lest they testify against you, but you thought that Allāh did not know most of what you were doing.
25. We have appointed for them companions³ so they have made fair-seeming to them what is before them and what is behind them (of their sins), and the Word (the Decree of Allāh) proved true against them - among the nations of the jinn and men that have passed on before them - that they are certainly losers.
27. We shall certainly make those who deny (the Truth) taste a severe torment, and requite them according to the worst of what they used to do (of evil).
28. Such is the requital of the enemies of God - the Hellfire; for them therein will be the eternal Home - a (fit) recompense for their rejecting Our revelations.
29. The disbelievers will say: "Our Lord, show us those who led us astray from among the jinn and men that we may put them under our feet, so that they will be among the lowest 'in Hell'."
30. As for those who say: "Our Lord is only Allāh, then remain steadfast (to their belief of Islam), the angels descend upon them (at the time of their death), saying: "Fear not, nor grieve, rather, rejoice in the good news of Paradise which you have been promised."
31. We are your supporters in this world’s life and in the Hereafter, and for you therein (in Paradise) is all that your inner-selves desire, and for you therein is all that you may ask for:
33. Who is better in speech than he who invites (people) to (the Way of) Allāh while he himself does (what is) right (and just), and says: "I am a Muslim."
34. Virtue and evil are not equal. Repel (evil) with deed that is better⁴, and thereupon the one whom between you and him is enmity (will become) as though he is a close friend⁵.
4. Allāh commands the believers to be patient at the time of anger, and to pardon and forgive and pray to those who mistreat them. See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
5. Prayer opens ourselves, our feelings, and our relationships with others to Allāh, calling Him to bring His perspective into it all. The act of submitting our will and feelings to Him in prayer changes our hearts, slowly but surely. No wonder Allah's call to love our enemies is bound up tightly with a call to prayer: “Pray for those who mistreat you.”
37. Among (Allah’s) Signs are the night, day, sun, and the moon. Do not prostrate to the sun nor to the moon, but prostrate to Allāh Who created them - if you truly worship Him 'alone'.
38. But if the pagans are too proud (to do so), then those (angels) with (Allāh) your Lord glorify Him during the night and the day, and never are they tired.
39. Among Allah’s signs is that you see the earth still, but when We send down on it water, it stirs (to life) and swells. He Who revives it will surely revive the dead. He has full Power over all things.
40. Those who deviate from the right Way concerning Our verses are not hidden from Us. Is he then who is cast into the Hellfire better, or he who comes safe on the Day of Judgment? Do what you want. He is Ever-Seeing of what you do.
43. Nothing is said to you (Muhammad) except what was already said to the messengers (of Allāh) before you⁸. Your Lord 'Allāh' is certainly All-Forgiving, but stern in His punishment.
8. When people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Allāh (God). Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. If you are not familiar with the history of the prophets, you will not do well when you suffer any kind of slander or persecution in Allah’s Cause.
44. Had We revealed this Qur’an in a non-Arabic language, they would certainly have said: "Why are not its Verses well expounded (in our language)? A foreign (language) and (the prophet) an Arab? Say: "It is a guide and a healing⁹ for the believers. As for those who do not believe, there is a deafness in their ears and it is obscure to them. these are called from a far-off place¹⁰.
9. The Qur’an includes both curing and healing. Curing wounds, fevers, and diseases. But to become part of the Qur’an, part of the community of God’s people, part of the mosque's people. That is healing. Healing is hard work. It means being open to Islam. It means being open to Allāh (God). It means, first and foremost, acknowledging that you need Allāh. Healing means learning to live with what can’t be cured. Sometimes, healing means accepting that things can’t be fixed, and accepting that you are a beloved servant of God even still. Healing also means reaching out to other people. Even the people you don’t want to. It means building community and love and acceptance even with people you don’t like or understand. It means being willing to be honest, even if that means facing the parts of yourself and others that aren’t so nice. But there can be healing even in the midst of pain, and grief, and illness. There can be love and renewal even in the midst of brokenness. There can be hope in the midst of loss. There can be community even when the world tries to isolate us. And when we reach out, when we comfort people who are sick, and bring food to those who grieve, and are willing to be honest and compassionate with ourselves and others, and be there for people even when there’s no quick fix or easy answer; when we do that, we are part of God’s healing. We are God’s 'hands' in the world.
10. So they neither hear the call nor understand it.
45. We gave Moses the Scripture, but it was differed about. Had not a Word already gone forth from 'Allāh' your Lord, Judgment would certainly have been given between them. They are certainly in a disqueting doubt about it (the Qur’an).
46. Whoever does good, it is for his own benefit, and whoever does evil, it is against it. Your Lord 'Allāh' is not in the least unjust to His slaves (of mankind and jinn).
47. To Allāh (alone, learned men) refer the knowledge of the Hour (of Doom). No fruit comes forth from their husks, nor does any female conceives or delivers except with His knowledge. On the Day when He will call them, where are (those whom you considered) My associates in worship? They will say: "We declare to You, none of us are a witness (now of that falsehood)."
48. Whatever they used to invoke before (of idols, etc) will forsake them, and they will know for certain that there is no escape for them (from Allah’s torment).
50. Yet when We let him taste Mercy from Us after some adversity that has touched him, he would certainly say: "This is for me (due to my merit). I do not think that the Hour 'of Doom' will ever come. Even if I am returned to 'Allāh' my Lord, I will have from Him the most beautiful reward. We shall certainly inform the deniers (of the Truth) of what they did, and We will surely make them taste a difficult torment.
52. Say: "Have you considered if it (this Qur’an) is from Allāh (God); then you deny it, who is more astray than he who is in extreme dissension, far away 'from Truth'?"
53. We will show them Our signs in the Universe and in their own selves, until it becomes clear to them that this (Qur’an) is the very Truth. Is it not enough that your Lord 'Allāh' is a Witness over all things?
