      This is a portion of the entire surah.  View more context, or the entire surah.

Sahih International
And  [for]  every  person  We  have  imposed  his  fate  upon  his  neck,  and  We  will  produce for  him  on  the  Day  of  Resurrection  a  record  which  he  will  encounter  spread  open.
Sahih International
[It  will  be  said],  "Read  your  record.  Sufficient  is  yourself  against  you  this  Day  as accountant."
Sahih International
Whoever  is  guided  is  only  guided  for  [the  benefit  of]  his  soul.  And  whoever  errs  only errs  against  it.  And  no  bearer  of  burdens  will  bear  the  burden  of  another.  And  never would  We  punish  until  We  sent  a  messenger.
Sahih International
And  when  We  intend  to  destroy  a  city,  We  command  its  affluent  but  they  defiantly disobey  therein;  so  the  word  comes  into  effect  upon  it,  and  We  destroy  it  with [complete]  destruction.
Sahih International
And  how  many  have  We  destroyed  from  the  generations  after  Noah.  And  sufficient  is your  Lord,  concerning  the  sins  of  His  servants,  as  Acquainted  and  Seeing.
Sahih International
Whoever  should  desire  the  immediate  -   We  hasten  for  him  from  it  what  We  will  to whom  We  intend.  Then  We  have  made  for  him  Hell,  which  he  will  [enter  to]  burn, censured  and  banished.
Sahih International
But  whoever  desires  the  Hereafter  and  exerts  the  effort  due  to  it  while  he  is  a  believer  - it  is  those  whose  effort  is  ever  appreciated  [by Allah ].
Sahih International
To  each  [category]  We  extend  -   to  these  and  to  those  -   from  the  gift  of  your  Lord.  And never  has  the  gift  of  your  Lord  been  restricted.
Sahih International
Look  how  We  have  favored  [in  provision]  some  of  them  over  others.  But  the  Hereafter  is greater  in  degrees  [of  difference]  and  greater  in  distinction.
Sahih International
Do  not  make  [as  equal]  with Allah another  deity  and  [thereby]  become  censured  and forsaken.
Sahih International
And  your  Lord  has  decreed  that  you  not  worship  except  Him,  and  to  parents,  good treatment.  Whether  one  or  both  of  them  reach  old  age  [while]  with  you,  say  not  to them  [so  much  as],  "uff,"  and  do  not  repel  them  but  speak  to  them  a  noble  word.
Sahih International
And  lower  to  them  the  wing  of  humility  out  of  mercy  and  say,  "My  Lord,  have  mercy upon  them  as  they  brought  me  up  [when  I  was]  small."
Sahih International
Your  Lord  is  most  knowing  of  what  is  within  yourselves.  If  you  should  be  righteous  [in intention]  -   then  indeed  He  is  ever,  to  the  often  returning  [to  Him],  Forgiving.
Sahih International
And  give  the  relative  his  right,  and  [also]  the  poor  and  the  traveler,  and  do  not  spend wastefully.
Sahih International
Indeed,  the  wasteful  are  brothers  of  the  devils,  and  ever  has  Satan  been  to  his  Lord ungrateful.
Sahih International
And  if  you  [must]  turn  away  from  the  needy  awaiting  mercy  from  your  Lord  which  you expect,  then  speak  to  them  a  gentle  word.
Sahih International
And  do  not  make  your  hand  [as]  chained  to  your  neck  or  extend  it  completely  and [thereby]  become  blamed  and  insolvent.
Sahih International
Indeed,  your  Lord  extends  provision  for  whom  He  wills  and  restricts  [it].  Indeed  He  is ever,  concerning  His  servants,  Acquainted  and  Seeing.
Sahih International
And  do  not  kill  your  children  for  fear  of  poverty.  We  provide  for  them  and  for  you. Indeed,  their  killing  is  ever  a  great  sin.
Sahih International
And  do  not  approach  unlawful  sexual  intercourse.  Indeed,  it  is  ever  an  immorality  and is  evil  as  a  way.
Sahih International
And  do  not  kill  the  soul  which Allah has  forbidden,  except  by  right.  And  whoever  is killed  unjustly  -   We  have  given  his  heir  authority,  but  let  him  not  exceed  limits  in  [the matter  of]  taking  life.  Indeed,  he  has  been  supported  [by  the  law].
Sahih International
And  do  not  approach  the  property  of  an  orphan,  except  in  the  way  that  is  best,  until he  reaches  maturity.  And  fulfill  [every]  commitment.  Indeed,  the  commitment  is  ever [that  about  which  one  will  be]  questioned.
Sahih International
And  give  full  measure  when  you  measure,  and  weigh  with  an  even  balance.  That  is  the best  [way]  and  best  in  result.
Sahih International
And  do  not  pursue  that  of  which  you  have  no  knowledge.  Indeed,  the  hearing,  the sight  and  the  heart  -   about  all  those  [one]  will  be  questioned.
Sahih International
And  do  not  walk  upon  the  earth  exultantly.  Indeed,  you  will  never  tear  the  earth [apart],  and  you  will  never  reach  the  mountains  in  height.
Sahih International
That  is  from  what  your  Lord  has  revealed  to  you,  [O  Muhammad],  of  wisdom.  And,  [O mankind],  do  not  make  [as  equal]  with Allah another  deity,  lest  you  be  thrown  into Hell,  blamed  and  banished.
Sahih International
Then,  has  your  Lord  chosen  you  for  [having]  sons  and  taken  from  among  the  angels daughters?  Indeed,  you  say  a  grave  saying.
Sahih International
And  We  have  certainly  diversified  [the  contents]  in  this  Qur'an  that  mankind  may  be reminded,  but  it  does  not  increase  the  disbelievers  except  in  aversion.
Sahih International
Say,  [O  Muhammad],  "If  there  had  been  with  Him  [other]  gods,  as  they  say,  then  they [each]  would  have  sought  to  the  Owner  of  the  Throne  a  way."
Sahih International
The  seven  heavens  and  the  earth  and  whatever  is  in  them  exalt  Him.  And  there  is  not a  thing  except  that  it  exalts  [ Allah ]  by  His  praise,  but  you  do  not  understand  their  [way of]  exalting.  Indeed,  He  is  ever  Forbearing  and  Forgiving.
Sahih International
And  when  you  recite  the  Qur'an,  We  put  between  you  and  those  who  do  not  believe  in the  Hereafter  a  concealed  partition.
Sahih International
And  We  have  placed  over  their  hearts  coverings,  lest  they  understand  it,  and  in  their ears  deafness.  And  when  you  mention  your  Lord  alone  in  the  Qur'an,  they  turn  back in  aversion.
Sahih International
We  are  most  knowing  of  how  they  listen  to  it  when  they  listen  to  you  and  [of]  when they  are  in  private  conversation,  when  the  wrongdoers  say,  "You  follow  not  but  a  man affected  by  magic."
Sahih International
Look  how  they  strike  for  you  comparisons;  but  they  have  strayed,  so  they  cannot  [find] a  way.
Sahih International
And  they  say,  "When  we  are  bones  and  crumbled  particles,  will  we  [truly]  be resurrected  as  a  new  creation?"
Sahih International
Or  [any]  creation  of  that  which  is  great  within  your  breasts."  And  they  will  say,  "Who will  restore  us?"  Say,  "He  who  brought  you  forth  the  first  time."  Then  they  will  nod their  heads  toward  you  and  say,  "When  is  that?"  Say,  "Perhaps  it  will  be  soon  -
Sahih International
On  the  Day  He  will  call  you  and  you  will  respond  with  praise  of  Him  and  think  that you  had  not  remained  [in  the  world]  except  for  a  little."
Sahih International
And  tell  My  servants  to  say  that  which  is  best.  Indeed,  Satan  induces  [dissension] among  them.  Indeed  Satan  is  ever,  to  mankind,  a  clear  enemy.
Sahih International
Your  Lord  is  most  knowing  of  you.  If  He  wills,  He  will  have  mercy  upon  you;  or  if  He wills,  He  will  punish  you.  And  We  have  not  sent  you,  [O  Muhammad],  over  them  as  a manager.
Sahih International
And  your  Lord  is  most  knowing  of  whoever  is  in  the  heavens  and  the  earth.  And  We have  made  some  of  the  prophets  exceed  others  [in  various  ways],  and  to  David  We  gave the  book  [of  Psalms].
Sahih International
Say,  "Invoke  those  you  have  claimed  [as  gods]  besides  Him,  for  they  do  not  possess  the [ability  for]  removal  of  adversity  from  you  or  [for  its]  transfer  [to  someone  else]."
Sahih International
Those  whom  they  invoke  seek  means  of  access  to  their  Lord,  [striving  as  to]  which  of them  would  be  nearest,  and  they  hope  for  His  mercy  and  fear  His  punishment.  Indeed, the  punishment  of  your  Lord  is  ever  feared.
Sahih International
And  there  is  no  city  but  that  We  will  destroy  it  before  the  Day  of  Resurrection  or punish  it  with  a  severe  punishment.  That  has  ever  been  in  the  Register  inscribed.
Sahih International
And  nothing  has  prevented  Us  from  sending  signs  except  that  the  former  peoples denied  them.  And  We  gave  Thamud  the  she-camel  as  a  visible  sign,  but  they  wronged her.  And  We  send  not  the  signs  except  as  a  warning.
Sahih International
And  [remember,  O  Muhammad],  when  We  told  you,  "Indeed,  your  Lord  has encompassed  the  people."  And  We  did  not  make  the  sight  which  We  showed  you except  as  a  trial  for  the  people,  as  was  the  accursed  tree  [mentioned]  in  the  Qur'an. And  We  threaten  them,  but  it  increases  them  not  except  in  great  transgression.
Sahih International
And  [mention]  when  We  said  to  the  angles,  "Prostrate  to  Adam,"  and  they  prostrated, except  for  Iblees.  He  said,  "Should  I  prostrate  to  one  You  created  from  clay?"
Sahih International
[Iblees]  said,  "Do  You  see  this  one  whom  You  have  honored  above  me?  If  You  delay  me until  the  Day  of  Resurrection,  I  will  surely  destroy  his  descendants,  except  for  a  few."
Sahih International
[ Allah ]  said,  "Go,  for  whoever  of  them  follows  you,  indeed  Hell  will  be  the  recompense of  you  -   an  ample  recompense.
Sahih International
And  incite  [to  senselessness]  whoever  you  can  among  them  with  your  voice  and assault  them  with  your  horses  and  foot  soldiers  and  become  a  partner  in  their  wealth and  their  children  and  promise  them."  But  Satan  does  not  promise  them  except delusion.
Sahih International
Indeed,  over  My  [believing]  servants  there  is  for  you  no  authority.  And  sufficient  is your  Lord  as  Disposer  of  affairs.
Sahih International
It  is  your  Lord  who  drives  the  ship  for  you  through  the  sea  that  you  may  seek  of  His bounty.  Indeed,  He  is  ever,  to  you,  Merciful.
Sahih International
And  when  adversity  touches  you  at  sea,  lost  are  [all]  those  you  invoke  except  for  Him. But  when  He  delivers  you  to  the  land,  you  turn  away  [from  Him].  And  ever  is  man ungrateful.
Sahih International
Then  do  you  feel  secure  that  [instead]  He  will  not  cause  a  part  of  the  land  to  swallow you  or  send  against  you  a  storm  of  stones?  Then  you  would  not  find  for  yourselves  an advocate.
Sahih International
Or  do  you  feel  secure  that  He  will  not  send  you  back  into  the  sea  another  time  and send  upon  you  a  hurricane  of  wind  and  drown  you  for  what  you  denied?  Then  you would  not  find  for  yourselves  against  Us  an  avenger.
Sahih International
And  We  have  certainly  honored  the  children  of  Adam  and  carried  them  on  the  land and  sea  and  provided  for  them  of  the  good  things  and  preferred  them  over  much  of what  We  have  created,  with  [definite]  preference.
Sahih International
[Mention,  O  Muhammad],  the  Day  We  will  call  forth  every  people  with  their  record  [of deeds].  Then  whoever  is  given  his  record  in  his  right  hand  -   those  will  read  their records,  and  injustice  will  not  be  done  to  them,  [even]  as  much  as  a  thread  [inside  the date  seed].
Sahih International
And  whoever  is  blind  in  this  [life]  will  be  blind  in  the  Hereafter  and  more  astray  in  way.
Sahih International
And  indeed,  they  were  about  to  tempt  you  away  from  that  which  We  revealed  to  you  in order  to  [make]  you  invent  about  Us  something  else;  and  then  they  would  have  taken you  as  a  friend.
Sahih International
And  if  We  had  not  strengthened  you,  you  would  have  almost  inclined  to  them  a  little.
Sahih International
Then  [if  you  had],  We  would  have  made  you  taste  double  [punishment  in]  life  and double  [after]  death.  Then  you  would  not  find  for  yourself  against  Us  a  helper.
Sahih International
And  indeed,  they  were  about  to  drive  you  from  the  land  to  evict  you  therefrom.  And then  [when  they  do],  they  will  not  remain  [there]  after  you,  except  for  a  little.
Sahih International
[That  is  Our]  established  way  for  those  We  had  sent  before  you  of  Our  messengers; and  you  will  not  find  in  Our  way  any  alteration.
Sahih International
Establish  prayer  at  the  decline  of  the  sun  [from  its  meridian]  until  the  darkness  of  the night  and  [also]  the  Qur'an  of  dawn.  Indeed,  the  recitation  of  dawn  is  ever  witnessed.
Sahih International
And  from  [part  of]  the  night,  pray  with  it  as  additional  [worship]  for  you;  it  is  expected that  your  Lord  will  resurrect  you  to  a  praised  station.
Sahih International
And  say,  "My  Lord,  cause  me  to  enter  a  sound  entrance  and  to  exit  a  sound  exit  and grant  me  from  Yourself  a  supporting  authority."
Sahih International
And  say,  "Truth  has  come,  and  falsehood  has  departed.  Indeed  is  falsehood,  [by nature],  ever  bound  to  depart."
Sahih International
And  We  send  down  of  the  Qur'an  that  which  is  healing  and  mercy  for  the  believers, but  it  does  not  increase  the  wrongdoers  except  in  loss.
Sahih International
And  when  We  bestow  favor  upon  the  disbeliever,  he  turns  away  and  distances  himself; and  when  evil  touches  him,  he  is  ever  despairing.
Sahih International
Say,  "Each  works  according  to  his  manner,  but  your  Lord  is  most  knowing  of  who  is best  guided  in  way."
Sahih International
And  they  ask  you,  [O  Muhammad],  about  the  soul.  Say,  "The  soul  is  of  the  affair  of  my Lord.  And  mankind  have  not  been  given  of  knowledge  except  a  little."
Sahih International
And  if  We  willed,  We  could  surely  do  away  with  that  which  We  revealed  to  you.  Then you  would  not  find  for  yourself  concerning  it  an  advocate  against  Us.
Sahih International
Except  [We  have  left  it  with  you]  as  a  mercy  from  your  Lord.  Indeed,  His  favor  upon you  has  ever  been  great.
Sahih International
Say,  "If  mankind  and  the  jinn  gathered  in  order  to  produce  the  like  of  this  Qur'an,  they could  not  produce  the  like  of  it,  even  if  they  were  to  each  other  assistants."
Sahih International
And  We  have  certainly  diversified  for  the  people  in  this  Qur'an  from  every  [kind]  of example,  but  most  of  the  people  refused  [anything]  except  disbelief.
Sahih International
And  they  say,  "We  will  not  believe  you  until  you  break  open  for  us  from  the  ground  a spring.
Sahih International
Or  [until]  you  have  a  garden  of  palm  tress  and  grapes  and  make  rivers  gush  forth within  them  in  force  [and  abundance]
Sahih International
Or  you  make  the  heaven  fall  upon  us  in  fragments  as  you  have  claimed  or  you  bring Allah and  the  angels  before  [us]
Sahih International
Or  you  have  a  house  of  gold  or  you  ascend  into  the  sky.  And  [even  then],  we  will  not believe  in  your  ascension  until  you  bring  down  to  us  a  book  we  may  read."  Say, "Exalted  is  my  Lord!  Was  I  ever  but  a  human  messenger?"
Sahih International
And  what  prevented  the  people  from  believing  when  guidance  came  to  them  except that  they  said,  "Has Allah sent  a  human  messenger?"
Sahih International
Say,  "If  there  were  upon  the  earth  angels  walking  securely,  We  would  have  sent  down to  them  from  the  heaven  an  angel  [as  a]  messenger."
Sahih International
Say,  "Sufficient  is Allah as  Witness  between  me  and  you.  Indeed  he  is  ever,  concerning His  servants,  Acquainted  and  Seeing."
Sahih International
And  whoever Allah guides  -   he  is  the  [rightly]  guided;  and  whoever  He  sends  astray  - you  will  never  find  for  them  protectors  besides  Him,  and  We  will  gather  them  on  the Day  of  Resurrection  [fallen]  on  their  faces  -   blind,  dumb  and  deaf.  Their  refuge  is  Hell; every  time  it  subsides  We  increase  them  in  blazing  fire.
Sahih International
That  is  their  recompense  because  they  disbelieved  in  Our  verses  and  said,  "When  we are  bones  and  crumbled  particles,  will  we  [truly]  be  resurrected  [in]  a  new  creation?"
Sahih International
Do  they  not  see  that Allah ,  who  created  the  heavens  and  earth,  is  [the  one]  Able  to create  the  likes  of  them?  And  He  has  appointed  for  them  a  term,  about  which  there  is no  doubt.  But  the  wrongdoers  refuse  [anything]  except  disbelief.
Sahih International
Say  [to  them],  "If  you  possessed  the  depositories  of  the  mercy  of  my  Lord,  then  you would  withhold  out  of  fear  of  spending."  And  ever  has  man  been  stingy.
Sahih International
And  We  had  certainly  given  Moses  nine  evident  signs,  so  ask  the  Children  of  Israel [about]  when  he  came  to  them  and  Pharaoh  said  to  him,  "Indeed  I  think,  O  Moses, that  you  are  affected  by  magic."
Sahih International
[Moses]  said,  "You  have  already  known  that  none  has  sent  down  these  [signs]  except the  Lord  of  the  heavens  and  the  earth  as  evidence,  and  indeed  I  think,  O  Pharaoh,  that you  are  destroyed."
Sahih International
So  he  intended  to  drive  them  from  the  land,  but  We  drowned  him  and  those  with  him all  together.
Sahih International
And  We  said  after  Pharaoh  to  the  Children  of  Israel,  "Dwell  in  the  land,  and  when there  comes  the  promise  of  the  Hereafter,  We  will  bring  you  forth  in  [one]  gathering."
Sahih International
And  with  the  truth  We  have  sent  the  Qur'an  down,  and  with  the  truth  it  has descended.  And  We  have  not  sent  you,  [O  Muhammad],  except  as  a  bringer  of  good tidings  and  a  warner.
Sahih International
And  [it  is]  a  Qur'an  which  We  have  separated  [by  intervals]  that  you  might  recite  it  to the  people  over  a  prolonged  period.  And  We  have  sent  it  down  progressively.
Sahih International
Say,  "Believe  in  it  or  do  not  believe.  Indeed,  those  who  were  given  knowledge  before  it  - when  it  is  recited  to  them,  they  fall  upon  their  faces  in  prostration,
Sahih International
And  they  say,  "Exalted  is  our  Lord!  Indeed,  the  promise  of  our  Lord  has  been  fulfilled."
