21:1
Sahih International
[The time of] their account has approached for the people, while they are in heedlessness turning away.
21:2
Sahih International
No mention comes to them anew from their Lord except that they listen to it while they are at play
21:3
Sahih International
With their hearts distracted. And those who do wrong conceal their private conversation, [saying], "Is this [Prophet] except a human being like you? So would you approach magic while you are aware [of it]?"
21:4
Sahih International
The Prophet said, "My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing."
21:5
Sahih International
But they say, "[The revelation is but] a mixture of false dreams; rather, he has invented it; rather, he is a poet. So let him bring us a sign just as the previous [messengers] were sent [with miracles]."
21:6
Sahih International
Not a [single] city which We destroyed believed before them, so will they believe?
21:7
Sahih International
And We sent not before you, [O Muhammad], except men to whom We revealed [the message], so ask the people of the message if you do not know.
21:8
Sahih International
And We did not make the prophets forms not eating food, nor were they immortal [on earth].
21:9
Sahih International
Then We fulfilled for them the promise, and We saved them and whom We willed and destroyed the transgressors.
21:10
Sahih International
We have certainly sent down to you a Book in which is your mention. Then will you not reason?
21:11
Sahih International
And how many a city which was unjust have We shattered and produced after it another people.
21:12
Sahih International
And when its inhabitants perceived Our punishment, at once they fled from it.
21:13
Sahih International
[Some angels said], "Do not flee but return to where you were given luxury and to your homes - perhaps you will be questioned."
21:14
Sahih International
They said, "O woe to us! Indeed, we were wrongdoers."
21:15
Sahih International
And that declaration of theirs did not cease until We made them [as] a harvest [mowed down], extinguished [like a fire].
21:16
Sahih International
And We did not create the heaven and earth and that between them in play.
21:17
Sahih International
Had We intended to take a diversion, We could have taken it from [what is] with Us - if [indeed] We were to do so.
21:18
Sahih International
Rather, We dash the truth upon falsehood, and it destroys it, and thereupon it departs. And for you is destruction from that which you describe.
21:19
Sahih International
To Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those near Him are not prevented by arrogance from His worship, nor do they tire.
21:20
Sahih International
They exalt [Him] night and day [and] do not slacken.
21:21
Sahih International
Or have men taken for themselves gods from the earth who resurrect [the dead]?
21:22
Sahih International
Had there been within the heavens and earth gods besides Allah , they both would have been ruined. So exalted is Allah , Lord of the Throne, above what they describe.
21:23
Sahih International
He is not questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned.
21:24
Sahih International
Or have they taken gods besides Him? Say, [O Muhammad], "Produce your proof. This [Qur'an] is the message for those with me and the message of those before me." But most of them do not know the truth, so they are turning away.
21:25
Sahih International
And We sent not before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, "There is no deity except Me, so worship Me."
21:26
Sahih International
And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken a son." Exalted is He! Rather, they are [but] honored servants.
21:27
Sahih International
They cannot precede Him in word, and they act by His command.
21:28
Sahih International
He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they cannot intercede except on behalf of one whom He approves. And they, from fear of Him, are apprehensive.
21:29
Sahih International
And whoever of them should say, "Indeed, I am a god besides Him"- that one We would recompense with Hell. Thus do We recompense the wrongdoers.
21:30
Sahih International
Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?
21:31
Sahih International
And We placed within the earth firmly set mountains, lest it should shift with them, and We made therein [mountain] passes [as] roads that they might be guided.
21:32
Sahih International
And We made the sky a protected ceiling, but they, from its signs, are turning away.
21:33
Sahih International
And it is He who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon; all [heavenly bodies] in an orbit are swimming.
21:34
Sahih International
And We did not grant to any man before you eternity [on earth]; so if you die - would they be eternal?
21:35
Sahih International
Every soul will taste death. And We test you with evil and with good as trial; and to Us you will be returned.
21:36
Sahih International
And when those who disbelieve see you, [O Muhammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one who insults your gods?" And they are, at the mention of the Most Merciful, disbelievers.
21:37
Sahih International
Man was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not impatiently urge Me.
21:38
Sahih International
And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful?"
21:39
Sahih International
If those who disbelieved but knew the time when they will not avert the Fire from their faces or from their backs and they will not be aided...
21:40
Sahih International
Rather, it will come to them unexpectedly and bewilder them, and they will not be able to repel it, nor will they be reprieved.
21:41
Sahih International
And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by what they used to ridicule.
21:42
Sahih International
Say, "Who can protect you at night or by day from the Most Merciful?" But they are, from the remembrance of their Lord, turning away.
21:43
Sahih International
Or do they have gods to defend them other than Us? They are unable [even] to help themselves, nor can they be protected from Us.
21:44
Sahih International
But, [on the contrary], We have provided good things for these [disbelievers] and their fathers until life was prolonged for them. Then do they not see that We set upon the land, reducing it from its borders? So it is they who will overcome?
21:45
Sahih International
Say, "I only warn you by revelation." But the deaf do not hear the call when they are warned.
21:46
Sahih International
And if [as much as] a whiff of the punishment of your Lord should touch them, they would surely say, "O woe to us! Indeed, we have been wrongdoers."
21:47
Sahih International
And We place the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so no soul will be treated unjustly at all. And if there is [even] the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth. And sufficient are We as accountant.
21:48
Sahih International
And We had already given Moses and Aaron the criterion and a light and a reminder for the righteous
21:49
Sahih International
Who fear their Lord unseen, while they are of the Hour apprehensive.
21:50
Sahih International
And this [Qur'an] is a blessed message which We have sent down. Then are you with it unacquainted?
21:51
Sahih International
And We had certainly given Abraham his sound judgement before, and We were of him well-Knowing
21:52
Sahih International
When he said to his father and his people, "What are these statues to which you are devoted?"
21:53
Sahih International
They said, "We found our fathers worshippers of them."
21:54
Sahih International
He said, "You were certainly, you and your fathers, in manifest error."
21:55
Sahih International
They said, "Have you come to us with truth, or are you of those who jest?"
21:56
Sahih International
He said, "[No], rather, your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth who created them, and I, to that, am of those who testify.
21:57
Sahih International
And [I swear] by Allah , I will surely plan against your idols after you have turned and gone away."
21:58
Sahih International
So he made them into fragments, except a large one among them, that they might return to it [and question].
21:59
Sahih International
They said, "Who has done this to our gods? Indeed, he is of the wrongdoers."
21:60
Sahih International
They said, "We heard a young man mention them who is called Abraham."
21:61
Sahih International
They said, "Then bring him before the eyes of the people that they may testify."
21:62
Sahih International
They said, "Have you done this to our gods, O Abraham?"
21:63
Sahih International
He said, "Rather, this - the largest of them - did it, so ask them, if they should [be able to] speak."
21:64
Sahih International
So they returned to [blaming] themselves and said [to each other], "Indeed, you are the wrongdoers."
21:65
Sahih International
Then they reversed themselves, [saying], "You have already known that these do not speak!"
21:66
Sahih International
He said, "Then do you worship instead of Allah that which does not benefit you at all or harm you?
21:67
Sahih International
Uff to you and to what you worship instead of Allah . Then will you not use reason?"
21:68
Sahih International
They said, "Burn him and support your gods - if you are to act."
21:69
Sahih International
Allah said, "O fire, be coolness and safety upon Abraham."
21:70
Sahih International
And they intended for him harm, but We made them the greatest losers.
21:71
Sahih International
And We delivered him and Lot to the land which We had blessed for the worlds.
21:72
Sahih International
And We gave him Isaac and Jacob in addition, and all [of them] We made righteous.
21:73
Sahih International
And We made them leaders guiding by Our command. And We inspired to them the doing of good deeds, establishment of prayer, and giving of zakah; and they were worshippers of Us.
21:74
Sahih International

21:78
Sahih International
And [mention] David and Solomon, when they judged concerning the field - when the sheep of a people overran it [at night], and We were witness to their judgement.
21:79
Sahih International
And We gave understanding of the case to Solomon, and to each [of them] We gave judgement and knowledge. And We subjected the mountains to exalt [Us], along with David and [also] the birds. And We were doing [that].
