In the name
of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
1. Ha-Mim.
2. The
revelation of the Book is from Allah the Exalted in Power, Full of Wisdom.
3. Verily in
the heavens and the earth, are Signs for those who believe.
4. And in the
creation of yourselves and the fact that animals are scattered (through the
earth), are Signs for those of assured Faith.
5. And in the
alternation of Night and Day, and the fact that Allah sends down Sustenance
from the sky, and revives therewith the earth after its death, and in the
change of the winds,- are Signs for those that are wise.
6. Such are the
Signs of Allah, which We rehearse to thee in Truth; then in what exposition
will they believe after (rejecting) Allah and His Signs?
7. Woe to each
sinful dealer in Falsehoods:
8. He hears the
Signs of Allah rehearsed to him, yet is obstinate and lofty, as if he had not
heard them: then announce to him a Penalty Grievous!
9. And when he
learns something of Our Signs, he takes them in jest: for such there will be a
humiliating Penalty.
10. In front of
them is Hell: and of no profit to them is anything they may have earned, nor
any protectors they may have taken to themselves besides Allah. for them is a
tremendous Penalty.
11. This is (true)
Guidance and for those who reject the Signs of their Lord, is a grievous
Penalty of abomination.
12. It is Allah
Who has subjected the sea to you, that ships may sail through it by His
command, that ye may seek of his Bounty, and that ye may be grateful.
13. And He has
subjected to you, as from Him, all that is in the heavens and on earth: Behold,
in that are Signs indeed for those who reflect.
14. Tell those
who believe, to forgive those who do not look forward to the Days of Allah. It
is for Him to recompense (for good or ill) each People according to what they
have earned.
15. If any one
does a righteous deed, it ensures to the benefit of his own soul; if he does
evil, it works against (his own soul). In the end will ye (all) be brought back
to your Lord.
16. We did
aforetime grant to the Children of Israel the Book the Power of Command, and
Prophethood; We gave them, for Sustenance, things good and pure; and We
favoured them above the nations.
17. And We
granted them Clear Signs in affairs (of Religion): it was only after knowledge
had been granted to them that they fell into schisms, through insolent envy
among themselves. Verily thy Lord will judge between them on the Day of
Judgment as to those matters in which they set up differences.
18. Then We put
thee on the (right) Way of Religion: so follow thou that (Way), and follow not
the desires of those who know not.
19. They will be
of no use to thee in the sight of Allah. it is only Wrong-doers (that stand as)
protectors, one to another: but Allah is the Protector of the Righteous.
20. These are
clear evidences to men and a Guidance and Mercy to those of assured Faith.
21. What! Do
those who seek after evil ways think that We shall hold them equal with those
who believe and do righteous deeds,- that equal will be their life and their
death? Ill is the judgment that they make.
22. Allah
created the heavens and the earth for just ends, and in order that each soul
may find the recompense of what it has earned, and none of them be wronged.
23. Then seest
thou such a one as takes as his god his own vain desire? Allah has, knowing
(him as such), left him astray, and sealed his hearing and his heart (and
understanding), and put a cover on his sight. Who, then, will guide him after
Allah (has withdrawn Guidance)? Will ye not then receive admonition?
24. And they
say: "What is there but our life in this world? We shall die and we live,
and nothing but time can destroy us." But of that they have no knowledge:
they merely conjecture:
25. And when Our
Clear Signs are rehearsed to them their argument is nothing but this: They say,
"Bring (back) our forefathers, if what ye say is true!"
26. Say:
"It is Allah Who gives you life, then gives you death; then He will gather
you together for the Day of Judgment about which there is no doubt": But
most men do not understand.
27. To Allah
belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and the Day that the Hour of
Judgment is established,- that Day will the dealers in Falsehood perish!
28. And thou
wilt see every sect bowing the knee: Every sect will be called to its Record:
"This Day shall ye be recompensed for all that ye did!
29. "This
Our Record speaks about you with truth: For We were wont to put on Record all
that ye did."
30. Then, as to
those who believed and did righteous deeds, their Lord will admit them to His
Mercy that will be the achievement for all to see.
31. But as to
those who rejected Allah, (to them will be said): "Were not Our Signs
rehearsed to you? But ye were arrogant, and were a people given to sin!
32. "And
when it was said that the promise of Allah was true, and that the Hour- there
was no doubt about its (coming), ye used to say, 'We know not what is the hour:
we only think it is an idea, and we have no firm assurance.'"
33. Then will
appear to them the evil (fruits) of what they did, and they will be completely
encircled by that which they used to mock at!
34. It will also
be said: "This Day We will forget you as ye forgot the meeting of this Day
of yours! and your abode is the Fire, and no helpers have ye!
35. "This,
because ye used to take the Signs of Allah in jest, and the life of the world
deceived you:" (From) that Day, therefore, they shall not be taken out
thence, nor shall they be received into Grace.
36. Then Praise
be to Allah, Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earth,- Lord and Cherisher of
all the Worlds!
37. To Him be
glory throughout the heavens and the earth: and He is Exalted in Power, Full of
Wisdom!
