I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Who is more unjust than one who lies about Allah and denies the truth when it has come to him? Is there not in Hell a dwelling for the disbelievers?
But he who has brought the truth and believed in it – those are the righteous. They will have whatever they wish for with their Lord. That is the reward of the doers of good.
So that Allah may remove from them the worst of what they did and reward them according to the best of what they used to do. Is Allah not sufficient for His servant? And they frighten you with those whom they call upon besides Him. And whoever Allah leaves astray, there is no guide for him. And whoever Allah guides, there is no misleader for him. Is Allah not Exalted in Might, Owner of Retribution?
And if you ask them, "Who created the heavens and the earth?" they will surely say, "Allah." Say, "Then have you considered what you invoke besides Allah? If Allah intended harm for me, could they remove His harm? Or if He intended mercy for me, could they withhold His mercy?" Say, "Sufficient for me is Allah; upon Him rely those who rely."
Say, "O my people, do [as you wish]. Indeed, I am doing. And you are going to know. To whom will come a punishment that will disgrace him, and there will alight upon him a lasting punishment."
Indeed, We have revealed to you the Book for the people in truth. So whoever is guided is only guided for [the benefit of] his soul. And whoever errs is only erring against it. And you are not a manager over them.
Allah takes the souls at the time of their death, and those that have not yet died during their sleep. He retains those for whom He has decreed death and sends [the others] back until their appointed term. Indeed, in that are signs for a people who reflect.
Or have they taken other intercessors besides Allah? Say, "Even if they do not possess [power of] anything, nor do they reason?" Say, "To Allah belongs [all] intercession. To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. Then to Him you will be returned."
And when Allah is mentioned alone, the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter shrink with aversion, but when those [names] other than Him are mentioned, behold, they rejoice.
Say, "O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You will judge between Your servants concerning that over which they used to differ."
And if those who wronged had all that is in the earth and the like of it with it, they would ransom themselves with it from the evil of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection. And there will appear to them from Allah what they had not expected. And the evil consequences of what they earned will appear to them, and they will be enveloped by what they used to mock.
And when man is touched by distress, he calls upon Us; then when We bestow upon him a favor from Us, he says, "This has been given to me only because of [my] knowledge." Rather, it is a trial, but most of them do not know.
The people before them have already said this, and it did not avail them what they used to earn. So the evil consequences of what they earned struck them. And those who have wronged of these [people] – the evil consequences of what they earned will strike them. And they will not cause failure [to Allah].
Have they not considered that Allah extends provision for whom He wills and restricts it? Indeed, in that are signs for a people who believe.
Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."
And turn to your Lord in repentance and submit to Him before the punishment comes upon you; then you will not be helped. And follow the best of what was revealed to you from your Lord before the punishment comes to you suddenly while you do not perceive.
Lest a soul say, "Oh, regret for what I have neglected in my duty to Allah, although I was among the mockers." Or say, "If only Allah had guided me, I would have been among the righteous." Or say, when they see the punishment, "If only I could return [to the world] that I might do righteousness." [Allah will say], "Yes! My verses came to you, but you denied them and were arrogant, and you were among the disbelievers."
And on the Day of Resurrection, you will see those who lied about Allah with their faces blackened. Is there not in Hell a dwelling for the arrogant?
And Allah will save those who feared Him from [all] evil. No harm will touch them, nor will they grieve. Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is, over all things, Disposer of affairs.
To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth. And those who disbelieve in the signs of Allah – it is they who are the losers.
Say, "O ignorant ones, do you command me to worship other than Allah?" And it has been revealed to you, and to those before you, "If you should associate [anything] with Allah, your work would surely become worthless, and you would certainly be among the losers."
Rather, worship Allah and be among the grateful.
And they did not appraise Allah with the right appraisal, while the earth entirely will be [in] His grip on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand. Exalted is He and High above what they associate with Him.
And the Horn will be blown, and there will fall unconscious all who are in the heavens and all who are on the earth, except those whom Allah wills. Then it will be blown again, and at once they will be standing, observing.
And the earth will shine with the light of its Lord, and the Book will be placed, and the prophets and witnesses will be brought, and it will be judged between them in truth, and they will not be wronged.
And every soul will be fully compensated for what it did, and He is most knowing of what they do.
And those who disbelieved will be driven to Hell in throngs, until, when they reach it, its gates will be opened, and its keepers will say to them, "Did there not come to you messengers from among yourselves, reciting to you the verses of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours?" They will say, "Yes, but the decree of punishment has been fulfilled against the disbelievers."
It will be said, "Enter the gates of Hell to abide eternally therein." And how wretched is the residence of the arrogant.
And those who feared their Lord will be driven to Paradise in throngs, until, when they reach it, its gates will be opened, and its keepers will say to them, "Peace be upon you; you have become good [people]. Enter it, to abide eternally." And they will say, "Praise to Allah, who has fulfilled His promise to us and made us inheritors of the land [where we may] settle in Paradise wherever we wish." And excellent is the reward of the doers [of good].
And you will see the angels surrounding the Throne, proclaiming the praise of their Lord. And it will be judged between them in truth, and it will be said, "Praise to Allah, Lord of the worlds."
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Amen.
[This is] a revelation from Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
[He is] the Forgiver of sin, acceptor of repentance, severe in punishment, owner of abundance. There is no deity except Him; to Him is the destination.
None argue about the signs of Allah except those who disbelieve, so let them not deceive you [in their] movement through the cities.
The people of Noah denied before them, and the factions after them. And every nation intended [to seize] their messenger and argued with falsehood to do away with the truth. So I seized them, and how [terrible] was My punishment.
And thus, the word of your Lord has been fulfilled against those who disbelieved, that they are companions of the Fire.
Those who carry the Throne and those in its vicinity glorify the praise of their Lord and believe in Him and ask forgiveness for those who have believed, saying, "Our Lord, You have encompassed all things in mercy and knowledge, so forgive those who have repented and followed Your way and protect them from the punishment of the Blaze.
Our Lord, and admit them to gardens of perpetual residence which You have promised them and whoever acted righteously among their fathers, their spouses, and their offspring. Indeed, it is You who is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
And protect them from [the consequences of] evil deeds, and whoever You protect from [the consequences of] evil deeds that Day – You will have certainly had mercy upon him." And that is the great attainment.
Indeed, those who disbelieve will be called out to: "The hatred of Allah [towards you] is greater than your hatred of yourselves [when] you were called to faith and then disbelieved."
They will say, "Our Lord, You have caused us to die two deaths and given us two lives, and [now] we confess our sins. Is there any way out?"
That is because when Allah was called upon alone, you disbelieved; but if others were associated with Him, you believed. So the judgment is with Allah, the Most High, the Most Great.
It is He who shows you His signs and sends down for you from the sky provision. And none will remember except those who turn back [to Him].
So call upon Allah, making the religion sincere to Him, although the disbelievers dislike it.
[He is] the Exalter of degrees, Owner of the Throne. He casts the Spirit of His command upon whom He wills of His servants to warn of the Day of meeting.
The Day they will come forth; nothing concerning them will be hidden from Allah. To whom belongs [all] sovereignty this Day? To Allah, the One, the Conqueror.
This Day, every soul will be recompensed for what it earned. No injustice [this Day]. Indeed, Allah is swift in account.
And warn them of the Approaching Day when hearts are in the throats, stifled. For the wrongdoers there is no devoted friend and no intercessor who will be obeyed.
He knows the deceit of the eyes and what the breasts conceal. And Allah judges with truth, and those they invoke besides Him do not judge anything. Indeed, Allah is the Hearing, the Seeing.
Have they not traveled through the land and observed how was the end of those before them? They were greater than them in strength and in impression on the land, so Allah seized them for their sins. And they had no defender from Allah.
That was because their messengers used to come to them with clear proofs, but they disbelieved. So Allah seized them; indeed, He is Powerful and severe in punishment.
And We had certainly sent Moses with Our signs and a clear authority. To Pharaoh and Haman and Qarun, but they said, "[He is] a sorcerer and a liar."
And when the truth came to them from Us, they said, "Kill the sons of those who believed with him and let their women live." But the plotting of the disbelievers is not except in error.
And Pharaoh said, "Let me kill Moses and let him call upon his Lord. Indeed, I fear that he will change your religion or that he will cause corruption in the land."
And Moses said, "Indeed, I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord from every arrogant one who does not believe in the Day of Reckoning."
And a believing man from the family of Pharaoh, who concealed his faith, said, "Will you kill a man for saying 'My Lord is Allah' while he has brought you clear proofs from your Lord? And if he is a liar, then upon him is [the burden of] his lie; but if he is truthful, there will befall you some of what he promises you." Indeed, Allah does not guide whoever is a transgressor and a liar.
"O my people, yours is the dominion today, [you are] dominant in the land, but who will save us from the punishment of Allah if it comes to us?" Pharaoh said, "I do not show you except what I see, and I do not guide you except to the way of sound judgment."
And the one who believed said, "O my people, indeed I fear for you the like of the day [of the tribes] – like the custom of the people of Noah and 'Ad and Thamud and those after them. And Allah does not intend injustice to [His] servants.
And O my people, indeed I fear for you the Day of calling out – the Day you will turn fleeing, and you will not have from Allah any protector. And whoever Allah leaves astray – there is no guide for him.
And Joseph had already come to you with clear proofs, but you remained in doubt about what he brought you, until, when he perished, you said, 'Allah will never send a messenger after him.' Thus Allah leaves astray whoever is a transgressor and doubter.
Those who argue about the signs of Allah without [any] authority having come to them – [their] hatred is greatly detested by Allah and by those who have believed. Thus Allah seals over every heart of a contemptuous, arrogant one.
And Pharaoh said, "O Haman, build me a tower that I may reach the ways – the ways of the heavens, and I will look upon the god of Moses. And indeed, I consider him a liar."
And thus was made attractive to Pharaoh the evil of his deed, and he was averted from the way [of truth]. And the plotting of Pharaoh was not except in ruin.
"O my people, follow me; I will guide you to the way of sound judgment. O my people, this worldly life is only [temporary] enjoyment, and indeed, the Hereafter is the home of [permanent] dwelling. Whoever does an evil deed will not be recompensed except by the likes of it; and whoever does a righteous deed, whether male or female, while a believer – those will enter Paradise, receiving provision therein without account.
And O my people, what is [the matter] with me that I call you to salvation, while you call me to the Fire? You call me to disbelieve in Allah and associate with Him that about which I have no knowledge, and I am calling you to the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving.
No doubt that what you invite me to has no [basis for] invitation in this world or in the Hereafter, and that our return is to Allah, and that the transgressors are the companions of the Fire.
And you will remember what I tell you. And I entrust my affair to Allah. Indeed, Allah is Seeing of [His] servants."
So Allah protected him from the evil of their plotting, and the people of Pharaoh were enveloped by the worst of punishment.
The Fire, they are presented to it morning and evening. And the Day the Hour appears [it will be said], "Make the people of Pharaoh enter the most severe punishment."
And [remember] when they will argue in the Fire, and the weak will say to those who had been arrogant, "Indeed, we were followers of yours, so can you avail us [in any way] from the Fire?"
Those who had been arrogant will say, "Indeed, we are all in it. Allah has certainly judged between the servants."
And those in the Fire will say to the keepers of Hell, "Call upon your Lord to lighten the punishment for us for one day."
They will say, "Did your messengers not come to you with clear proofs?" They will say, "Yes." They will say, "Then call [upon Him]." And the supplication of the disbelievers is not except in error.
Indeed, We will certainly support Our messengers and those who believe during the life of this world and on the Day when the witnesses will stand.
The Day their excuses will not benefit the wrongdoers, and they will have the curse, and they will have the evil of the home [in the Hereafter].
And We had certainly given Moses the guidance, and We inherited the Book upon the Children of Israel.
As guidance and a reminder for those of understanding. So be patient, [O Muhammad], indeed the promise of Allah is truth. And seek forgiveness for your sin and exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord in the evening and the morning.
Indeed, those who argue about the signs of Allah without [any] authority having come to them – there is not in their breasts except [arrogant] pride, [and] they will not attain it. So seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Seeing.
The creation of the heavens and the earth is greater than the creation of mankind, but most of the people do not know.
And the blind and the seeing are not the same, nor are those who believe and do righteous deeds and the evildoer. Little do you remember.
Indeed, the Hour is coming; there is no doubt about it. But most of the people do not believe.
And your Lord says, "Call upon Me; I will respond to you." Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible.
It is Allah who made for you the night that you may rest therein and the day giving sight. Indeed, Allah is the possessor of bounty over the people, but most of the people are not grateful.
That is Allah, your Lord, Creator of all things; there is no deity except Him. So how are you deluded?
Thus are those who were, against Allah's signs, disbelievers, deluded.
It is Allah who made for you the earth a stable resting place and the sky a ceiling and formed you and perfected your forms and provided for you of the good things. That is Allah, your Lord; then blessed is Allah, Lord of the worlds.
He is the Ever-Living; there is no deity except Him, so call upon Him, [being] sincere to Him in religion. [All] praise is to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
Say, "Indeed, I have been forbidden to worship those you call upon besides Allah, [but] when the clear proofs came to me from my Lord, and I have been commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds."
It is He who created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from a clinging clot; then He brings you out as a child; then [He develops you] that you may reach your maturity, then [allows you] to become old, and among you is he who is taken in death before, and [all this] that you may reach an appointed term, and perhaps you will use reason.
It is He who gives life and causes death. And when He decides an affair, He merely says to it, "Be," and it is.
Have you not considered those who argue about the signs of Allah? How are they averted?
Those who deny the Book and what We sent Our messengers with [in the past]. And they are going to know,
When the shackles are around their necks and the chains; they will be dragged
Into the scalding water; then they will be burned in the Fire.
Then it will be said to them, "Where are those you used to associate with Allah
As partners, [the worship of] whom you were defending?" They will say, "They have vanished from us. Rather, we did not used to call on anything before." Thus does Allah leave the disbelievers in error.
That is [because] you were rejoicing in the earth, other than the truth, and [because] you were insolent.
Enter the gates of Hell to abide eternally therein." And how wretched is the residence of the arrogant.
So be patient; indeed, the promise of Allah is truth. And whether We show you some of what We have promised them or take you in death, then to Us they will be returned.
And We had certainly sent messengers before you. Among them are those We have told you about, and among them are those We have not told you about. And it was not for any messenger to bring a sign except by permission of Allah. But when the command of Allah comes, it will be judged in truth, and the installers of falsehood will lose.
It is Allah who made for you the livestock that you may ride some of them and eat of them.
And for you therein is [other] benefit, and that you may reach by means of them any need within your breasts, and upon them and upon ships you are carried.
And He shows you His signs. Then which of the signs of Allah do you deny?
Have they not traveled through the land and observed how was the end of those before them? They were greater than them in strength and in impression on the land, so what good did their earnings do them?
And when their messengers came to them with clear proofs, they rejoiced in what they had of knowledge, but they were enveloped by what they used to mock.
So when they saw Our punishment, they said, "We believe in Allah alone, and we reject what we used to associate with Him as partners."
But their faith was not to avail them when they saw Our punishment. [This is] the established way of Allah which has passed among His servants. And the disbelievers have lost at that time.
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Ha, Mim.
[This is] a revelation from the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
A Book whose verses have been detailed, an Arabic Quran for people who know.
[As] a bearer of good tidings and a warner. But most of them turn away, so they do not hear.
And they say, "Our hearts are within coverings from what you invite us to, and in our ears is deafness. And between us and you is a partition, so work; indeed, we are working."
Say, "I am only a human being like yourselves, to whom it has been revealed that your god is only one God; so take a straight course to Him and seek His forgiveness." And woe to the polytheists.
Who do not give zakah, and they, in the Hereafter, are disbelievers.
Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds – for them is a reward without end.
Say, "Do you disbelieve in He who created the earth in two days and attribute to Him rivals, while He is the Lord of all worlds?"
And He placed on the earth firmly set mountains over its surface, and He blessed it and determined therein its [food] provisions, in four days, equal for [all] seekers.
Then He directed Himself to the heaven while it was smoke and said to it and to the earth, "Come [both of you] willingly or unwillingly." They said, "We have come willingly."
And He completed them as seven heavens in two days and inspired in each heaven its command. And We adorned the nearest heaven with lamps and as protection. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.
But if they turn away, then say, "I have warned you of a thunderbolt like the thunderbolt [that struck] 'Ad and Thamud."
When the messengers came to them from before them and from behind them, [saying], "Do not worship except Allah." They said, "If our Lord had willed, He would have sent down angels, so indeed we, in that with which you were sent, are disbelievers."
As for 'Ad, they were arrogant in the land without right and said, "Who is mightier than us in strength?" Did they not consider that Allah, who created them, is mightier than them in strength? But they were rejecting Our signs.
So We sent upon them a furious wind during days of misfortune to make them taste the punishment of disgrace in this worldly life. And the punishment of the Hereafter is more disgracing, and they will not be aided.
And as for Thamud, We guided them, but they preferred blindness over guidance, so the bolt of humiliating punishment seized them because of what they used to earn.
And We saved those who believed and used to fear Allah.
And the Day [when] the enemies of Allah will be gathered to the Fire, they will be driven [in throngs].
Until, when they reach it, their hearing and their eyes and their skins will bear witness against them concerning what they were doing.
And they will say to their skins, "Why do you bear witness against us?" And they will say, "We were made to speak by Allah, who has enabled all things to speak; and He created you the first time, and to Him you are returned."
And you were not concealing [your deeds] lest your hearing testify against you or your eyes or your skins. But you assumed that Allah does not know much of what you do.
And that assumption of yours which you assumed about your Lord has brought you to destruction, and you have become among the losers.
So if they are patient, then the Fire is a dwelling for them; and if they ask to appease, they will not be appeiniable.
And We appointed for them companions who made attractive to them what was before them and what was behind them, and the decree [of punishment] was justified upon them among nations of jinn and men that had passed before them. Indeed, they were [all] losers.
And those who disbelieved say, "Do not listen to this Quran and make noise therein that perhaps you will overcome."
Indeed, those who disbelieve will have a severe punishment, and We will surely recompense them with the worst of what they used to do.
That is the recompense of the enemies of Allah – the Fire. For them therein is the Home of Eternity, as recompense for what they were rejecting of Our signs.
And those who disbelieved will say, "Our Lord, show us those who led us astray of the jinn and men – we will put them under our feet that they may be among the lowest."
Indeed, those who have said, "Our Lord is Allah," and then remained steadfast, the angels will descend upon them, [saying], "Do not fear and do not grieve; but rejoice in the Paradise which you were promised.
We are your allies in the worldly life and in the Hereafter; and you will have therein whatever your souls desire, and you will have therein whatever you request [or wish for].
[As] provision from [Allah], the Forgiving, the Merciful."
And who is better in speech than one who calls to Allah and does righteousness and says, "Indeed, I am of the Muslims."
And not equal are the good deed and the bad. Repel [evil] by that [deed] which is better; and thereupon the one whom between you and him is enmity [will become] as though he was a devoted friend.
But none is granted it except those who are patient, and none is granted it except one having a great portion [of good].
And if an evil distraction from Satan should strike you, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
And of His signs are the night and day and the sun and moon. Do not prostrate to the sun or to the moon, but prostrate to Allah, who created them, if you worship Him.
There is no god but Allah, truly, truly. There is no god but Allah, in faith and confirmation. There is no god but Allah, in servitude and slavery. I prostrated to You, my Lord, in servitude and slavery, not as an arrogant one, nor as one refusing. Rather, I am a humble, weak, fearful, seeking refuge servant. Glory be to my Lord, the Most High, and praise be to Him. Allah is the Greatest.
And if they are arrogant, then those who are with your Lord glorify Him by night and by day, and they do not tire.
And of His signs is that you see the earth humbled, but when We send down upon it rain, it vibrates and grows. Indeed, He who revived it is the Reviver of the dead. Indeed, He is over all things competent.
Indeed, those who distort Our signs are not hidden from Us. So is one who is cast into the Fire better or one who comes safely on the Day of Resurrection? Do whatever you will; indeed, He is a seer of what you do.
Indeed, those who disbelieve in the message when it has come to them – and indeed, it is an unassailable Book.
Falsehood shall not come to it from before it or from behind it; [it is] a revelation from [He who is] Wise and Praiseworthy.
Nothing is said to you except what was already said to the messengers before you. Indeed, your Lord is possessor of forgiveness and possessor of painful punishment.
And if We had made it a non-Arabic Quran, they would have said, "Why are its verses not detailed? Is it [so] non-Arabic and [its messenger] Arab?" Say, "It is for those who believe guidance and healing. And those who do not believe in their ears is deafness, and it is against them [i.e., the Quran] blindness. Those are the ones being called from a distant place."
And We had certainly given Moses the Scripture, and it was differed upon. And if not for a word that preceded from your Lord, it would have been decided between them. And indeed, they are in a disquieting doubt concerning it.
Whoever does righteousness – it is for his soul; and whoever does evil – it is against it. And your Lord is not unjust to [His] servants.
Allah the Most High has spoken the truth.
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. >> Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. >> Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Muhammad is >> Muhammad, may Allah bless him.
