Sahih International
For  they  had  denied  the  truth  when  it  came  to  them,  but  there  is  going  to  reach    them the  news  of  what  they  used  to  ridicule.
Sahih International
Have  they  not  seen  how  many  generations  We  destroyed  before  them  which  We  had established  upon  the  earth  as  We  have  not  established  you?  And  We  sent  [rain  from] the  sky  upon  them  in  showers  and  made  rivers  flow  beneath  them;  then  We  destroyed them  for  their  sins  and  brought  forth  after  them  a  generation  of  others.
Sahih International
And  even  if  We  had  sent  down  to  you,  [O  Muhammad],  a  written  scripture  on  a  page and  they  touched  it  with  their  hands,  the  disbelievers  would  say,  "This  is  not  but obvious  magic."
Sahih International
And  they  say,  "Why  was  there  not  sent  down  to  him  an  angel?"  But  if  We  had  sent down  an  angel,  the  matter  would  have  been  decided;  then  they  would  not  be  reprieved.
Sahih International
And  if  We  had  made  him  an  angel,  We  would  have  made  him  [appear  as]  a  man,  and We  would  have  covered  them  with  that  in  which  they  cover  themselves.
Sahih International
And  already  were  messengers  ridiculed  before  you,  but  those  who  mocked  them  were enveloped  by  that  which  they  used  to  ridicule.
Sahih International
Say,  "Travel  through  the  land;  then  observe  how  was  the  end  of  the  deniers."
Sahih International
Say,  "To  whom  belongs  whatever  is  in  the  heavens  and  earth?"  Say,  "To Allah ."  He  has decreed  upon  Himself  mercy.  He  will  surely  assemble  you  for  the  Day  of  Resurrection, about  which  there  is  no  doubt.  Those  who  will  lose  themselves  [that  Day]  do  not believe.
Sahih International
And  to  Him  belongs  that  which  reposes  by  night  and  by  day,  and  He  is  the  Hearing, the  Knowing.
Sahih International
Say,  "Is  it  other  than Allah I  should  take  as  a  protector,  Creator  of  the  heavens  and  the earth,  while  it  is  He  who  feeds  and  is  not  fed?"  Say,  [O  Muhammad],  "Indeed,  I  have been  commanded  to  be  the  first  [among  you]  who  submit  [to Allah ]  and  [was commanded],  'Do  not  ever  be  of  the  polytheists.'  "
Sahih International
Say,  "Indeed  I  fear,  if  I  should  disobey  my  Lord,  the  punishment  of  a  tremendous  Day."
Sahih International
He  from  whom  it  is  averted  that  Day  -   [ Allah ]  has  granted  him  mercy.  And  that  is  the clear  attainment.
Sahih International
And  if Allah should  touch  you  with  adversity,  there  is  no  remover  of  it  except  Him.  And if  He  touches  you  with  good  -   then  He  is  over  all  things  competent.
Sahih International
And  He  is  the  subjugator  over  His  servants.  And  He  is  the  Wise,  the  Acquainted  [with all].
Sahih International
Say,  "What  thing  is  greatest  in  testimony?"  Say,  " Allah is  witness  between  me  and  you. And  this  Qur'an  was  revealed  to  me  that  I  may  warn  you  thereby  and  whomever  it reaches.  Do  you  [truly]  testify  that  with Allah there  are  other  deities?"  Say,  "I  will  not testify  [with  you]."  Say,  "Indeed,  He  is  but  one  God,  and  indeed,  I  am  free  of  what  you associate  [with  Him]."
Sahih International
Those  to  whom  We  have  given  the  Scripture  recognize  it  as  they  recognize  their  [own] sons.  Those  who  will  lose  themselves  [in  the  Hereafter]  do  not  believe.
Sahih International
And  who  is  more  unjust  than  one  who  invents  about Allah a  lie  or  denies  His  verses? Indeed,  the  wrongdoers  will  not  succeed.
Sahih International
And  [mention,  O  Muhammad],  the  Day  We  will  gather  them  all  together;  then  We  will say  to  those  who  associated  others  with Allah ,  "Where  are  your  'partners'  that  you used  to  claim  [with  Him]?"
Sahih International
Then  there  will  be  no  [excuse  upon]  examination  except  they  will  say,  "By Allah ,  our Lord,  we  were  not  those  who  associated."
Sahih International
See  how  they  will  lie  about  themselves.  And  lost  from  them  will  be  what  they  used  to invent.
Sahih International
And  among  them  are  those  who  listen  to  you,  but  We  have  placed  over  their  hearts coverings,  lest  they  understand  it,  and  in  their  ears  deafness.  And  if  they  should  see every  sign,  they  will  not  believe  in  it.  Even  when  they  come  to  you  arguing  with  you, those  who  disbelieve  say,  "This  is  not  but  legends  of  the  former  peoples."
Sahih International
And  they  prevent  [others]  from  him  and  are  [themselves]  remote  from  him.  And  they  do not  destroy  except  themselves,  but  they  perceive  [it]  not.
Sahih International
If  you  could  but  see  when  they  are  made  to  stand  before  the  Fire  and  will  say,  "Oh, would  that  we  could  be  returned  [to  life  on  earth]  and  not  deny  the  signs  of  our  Lord and  be  among  the  believers."
Sahih International
But  what  they  concealed  before  has  [now]  appeared  to  them.  And  even  if  they  were returned,  they  would  return  to  that  which  they  were  forbidden;  and  indeed,  they  are liars.
Sahih International
And  they  say,  "There  is  none  but  our  worldly  life,  and  we  will  not  be  resurrected."
Sahih International
If  you  could  but  see  when  they  will  be  made  to  stand  before  their  Lord.  He  will  say,  "Is this  not  the  truth?"  They  will  say,  "Yes,  by  our  Lord."  He  will  [then]  say,  "So  taste  the punishment  because  you  used  to  disbelieve."
Sahih International
Those  will  have  lost  who  deny  the  meeting  with Allah ,  until  when  the  Hour  [of resurrection]  comes  upon  them  unexpectedly,  they  will  say,  "Oh,  [how  great  is]  our regret  over  what  we  neglected  concerning  it,"  while  they  bear  their  burdens  on  their backs.  Unquestionably,  evil  is  that  which  they  bear.
Sahih International
And  the  worldly  life  is  not  but  amusement  and  diversion;  but  the  home  of  the Hereafter  is  best  for  those  who  fear Allah ,  so  will  you  not  reason?
Sahih International
We  know  that  you,  [O  Muhammad],  are  saddened  by  what  they  say.  And  indeed,  they do  not  call  you  untruthful,  but  it  is  the  verses  of Allah that  the  wrongdoers  reject.
Sahih International
And  certainly  were  messengers  denied  before  you,  but  they  were  patient  over  [the effects  of]  denial,  and  they  were  harmed  until  Our  victory  came  to  them.  And  none  can alter  the  words  of Allah .  And  there  has  certainly  come  to  you  some  information  about the  [previous]  messengers.
Sahih International
And  if  their  evasion  is  difficult  for  you,  then  if  you  are  able  to  seek  a  tunnel  into  the earth  or  a  stairway  into  the  sky  to  bring  them  a  sign,  [then  do  so].  But  if Allah had willed,  He  would  have  united  them  upon  guidance.  So  never  be  of  the  ignorant.
Sahih International
Only  those  who  hear  will  respond.  But  the  dead  - Allah will  resurrect  them;  then  to Him  they  will  be  returned.
Sahih International
And  they  say,  "Why  has  a  sign  not  been  sent  down  to  him  from  his  Lord?"  Say, "Indeed, Allah is  Able  to  send  down  a  sign,  but  most  of  them  do  not  know."
Sahih International
And  there  is  no  creature  on  [or  within]  the  earth  or  bird  that  flies  with  its  wings  except [that  they  are]  communities  like  you.  We  have  not  neglected  in  the  Register  a  thing. Then  unto  their  Lord  they  will  be  gathered.
Sahih International
But  those  who  deny  Our  verses  are  deaf  and  dumb  within  darknesses.  Whomever Allah wills  -   He  leaves  astray;  and  whomever  He  wills  -   He  puts  him  on  a  straight path.
Sahih International
Say,  "Have  you  considered:  if  there  came  to  you  the  punishment  of Allah or  there  came to  you  the  Hour  -   is  it  other  than Allah you  would  invoke,  if  you  should  be  truthful?"
Sahih International
No,  it  is  Him  [alone]  you  would  invoke,  and  He  would  remove  that  for  which  you invoked  Him  if  He  willed,  and  you  would  forget  what  you  associate  [with  Him].
Sahih International
And  We  have  already  sent  [messengers]  to  nations  before  you,  [O  Muhammad];  then We  seized  them  with  poverty  and  hardship  that  perhaps  they  might  humble themselves  [to  Us].
Sahih International
Then  why,  when  Our  punishment  came  to  them,  did  they  not  humble  themselves?  But their  hearts  became  hardened,  and  Satan  made  attractive  to  them  that  which  they were  doing.
Sahih International
So  when  they  forgot  that  by  which  they  had  been  reminded,  We  opened  to  them  the doors  of  every  [good]  thing  until,  when  they  rejoiced  in  that  which  they  were  given,  We seized  them  suddenly,  and  they  were  [then]  in  despair.
Sahih International
So  the  people  that  committed  wrong  were  eliminated.  And  praise  to Allah ,  Lord  of  the worlds.
Sahih International
Say,  "Have  you  considered:  if Allah should  take  away  your  hearing  and  your  sight  and set  a  seal  upon  your  hearts,  which  deity  other  than Allah could  bring  them  [back]  to you?"  Look  how  we  diversify  the  verses;  then  they  [still]  turn  away.
Sahih International
Say,  "Have  you  considered:  if  the  punishment  of Allah should  come  to  you unexpectedly  or  manifestly,  will  any  be  destroyed  but  the  wrongdoing  people?"
Sahih International
And  We  send  not  the  messengers  except  as  bringers  of  good  tidings  and  warners.  So whoever  believes  and  reforms  -   there  will  be  no  fear  concerning  them,  nor  will  they grieve.
Sahih International
But  those  who  deny  Our  verses  -   the  punishment  will  touch  them  for  their  defiant disobedience.
Sahih International
Say,  [O  Muhammad],  "I  do  not  tell  you  that  I  have  the  depositories  [containing  the provision]  of Allah or  that  I  know  the  unseen,  nor  do  I  tell  you  that  I  am  an  angel.  I only  follow  what  is  revealed  to  me."  Say,  "Is  the  blind  equivalent  to  the  seeing?  Then will  you  not  give  thought?"
Sahih International
And  warn  by  the  Qur'an  those  who  fear  that  they  will  be  gathered  before  their  Lord  - for  them  besides  Him  will  be  no  protector  and  no  intercessor  -  that  they  might  become righteous.
Sahih International
And  do  not  send  away  those  who  call  upon  their  Lord  morning  and  afternoon,  seeking His  countenance.  Not  upon  you  is  anything  of  their  account  and  not  upon  them  is anything  of  your  account.  So  were  you  to  send  them  away,  you  would  [then]  be  of  the wrongdoers.
Sahih International
And  thus  We  have  tried  some  of  them  through  others  that  the  disbelievers  might  say, "Is  it  these  whom Allah has  favored  among  us?"  Is  not Allah most  knowing  of  those who  are  grateful?
Sahih International
And  when  those  come  to  you  who  believe  in  Our  verses,  say,  "Peace  be  upon  you.  Your Lord  has  decreed  upon  Himself  mercy:  that  any  of  you  who  does  wrong  out  of ignorance  and  then  repents  after  that  and  corrects  himself  -  indeed,  He  is  Forgiving and  Merciful."
Sahih International
And  thus  do  We  detail  the  verses,  and  [thus]  the  way  of  the  criminals  will  become evident.
Sahih International
Say,  "Indeed,  I  have  been  forbidden  to  worship  those  you  invoke  besides Allah ."  Say,  "I will  not  follow  your  desires,  for  I  would  then  have  gone  astray,  and  I  would  not  be  of the  [rightly]  guided."
Sahih International
Say,  "Indeed,  I  am  on  clear  evidence  from  my  Lord,  and  you  have  denied  it.  I  do  not have  that  for  which  you  are  impatient.  The  decision  is  only  for Allah .  He  relates  the truth,  and  He  is  the  best  of  deciders."
Sahih International
Say,  "If  I  had  that  for  which  you  are  impatient,  the  matter  would  have  been  decided between  me  and  you,  but Allah is  most  knowing  of  the  wrongdoers."
Sahih International
And  with  Him  are  the  keys  of  the  unseen;  none  knows  them  except  Him.  And  He knows  what  is  on  the  land  and  in  the  sea.  Not  a  leaf  falls  but  that  He  knows  it.  And  no grain  is  there  within  the  darknesses  of  the  earth  and  no  moist  or  dry  [thing]  but  that  it is  [written]  in  a  clear  record.
Sahih International
And  it  is  He  who  takes  your  souls  by  night  and  knows  what  you  have  committed  by day.  Then  He  revives  you  therein  that  a  specified  term  may  be  fulfilled.  Then  to  Him will  be  your  return;  then  He  will  inform  you  about  what  you  used  to  do.
Sahih International
And  He  is  the  subjugator  over  His  servants,  and  He  sends  over  you  guardian-angels until,  when  death  comes  to  one  of  you,  Our  messengers  take  him,  and  they  do  not  fail [in  their  duties].
Sahih International
Then  they  His  servants  are  returned  to Allah ,  their  true  Lord.  Unquestionably,  His  is the  judgement,  and  He  is  the  swiftest  of  accountants.
Sahih International
Say,  "Who  rescues  you  from  the  darknesses  of  the  land  and  sea  [when]  you  call  upon Him  imploring  [aloud]  and  privately,  'If  He  should  save  us  from  this  [crisis],  we  will surely  be  among  the  thankful.'  "
Sahih International
Say,  "It  is Allah who  saves  you  from  it  and  from  every  distress;  then  you  [still] associate  others  with  Him."
Sahih International
Say,  "He  is  the  [one]  Able  to  send  upon  you  affliction  from  above  you  or  from  beneath your  feet  or  to  confuse  you  [so  you  become]  sects  and  make  you  taste  the  violence  of one  another."  Look  how  We  diversify  the  signs  that  they  might  understand.
Sahih International
But  your  people  have  denied  it  while  it  is  the  truth.  Say,  "I  am  not  over  you  a manager."
Sahih International
And  when  you  see  those  who  engage  in  [offensive]  discourse  concerning  Our  verses, then  turn  away  from  them  until  they  enter  into  another  conversion.  And  if  Satan should  cause  you  to  forget,  then  do  not  remain  after  the  reminder  with  the  wrongdoing people.
Sahih International
And  those  who  fear Allah are  not  held  accountable  for  the  disbelievers  at  all,  but  [only for]  a  reminder  -  that  perhaps  they  will  fear  Him.
Sahih International
And  leave  those  who  take  their  religion  as  amusement  and  diversion  and  whom  the worldly  life  has  deluded.  But  remind  with  the  Qur'an,  lest  a  soul  be  given  up  to destruction  for  what  it  earned;  it  will  have  other  than Allah no  protector  and  no intercessor.  And  if  it  should  offer  every  compensation,  it  would  not  be  taken  from  it. Those  are  the  ones  who  are  given  to  destruction  for  what  they  have  earned.  For  them will  be  a  drink  of  scalding  water  and  a  painful  punishment  because  they  used  to disbelieve.
Sahih International
Say,  "Shall  we  invoke  instead  of Allah that  which  neither  benefits  us  nor  harms  us  and be  turned  back  on  our  heels  after Allah has  guided  us?  [We  would  then  be]  like  one whom  the  devils  enticed  [to  wander]  upon  the  earth  confused,  [while]  he  has companions  inviting  him  to  guidance,  [calling],  'Come  to  us.'  "  Say,  "Indeed,  the guidance  of Allah is  the  [only]  guidance;  and  we  have  been  commanded  to  submit  to the  Lord  of  the  worlds.
Sahih International
And  to  establish  prayer  and  fear  Him."  And  it  is  He  to  whom  you  will  be  gathered.
Sahih International
And  it  is  He  who  created  the  heavens  and  earth  in  truth.  And  the  day  He  says,  "Be," and  it  is,  His  word  is  the  truth.  And  His  is  the  dominion  [on]  the  Day  the  Horn  is blown.  [He  is]  Knower  of  the  unseen  and  the  witnessed;  and  He  is  the  Wise,  the Acquainted.
Sahih International
And  [mention,  O  Muhammad],  when  Abraham  said  to  his  father Azar,  "Do  you  take idols  as  deities?  Indeed,  I  see  you  and  your  people  to  be  in  manifest  error."
Sahih International
And  thus  did  We  show  Abraham  the  realm  of  the  heavens  and  the  earth  that  he  would be  among  the  certain  [in  faith]
Sahih International
So  when  the  night  covered  him  [with  darkness],  he  saw  a  star.  He  said,  "This  is  my lord."  But  when  it  set,  he  said,  "I  like  not  those  that  disappear."
Sahih International
And  when  he  saw  the  moon  rising,  he  said,  "This  is  my  lord."  But  when  it  set,  he  said, "Unless  my  Lord  guides  me,  I  will  surely  be  among  the  people  gone  astray."
Sahih International
And  when  he  saw  the  sun  rising,  he  said,  "This  is  my  lord;  this  is  greater."  But  when  it set,  he  said,  "O  my  people,  indeed  I  am  free  from  what  you  associate  with Allah .
Sahih International
Indeed,  I  have  turned  my  face  toward  He  who  created  the  heavens  and  the  earth, inclining  toward  truth,  and  I  am  not  of  those  who  associate  others  with Allah ."
Sahih International
And  his  people  argued  with  him.  He  said,  "Do  you  argue  with  me  concerning Allah while  He  has  guided  me?  And  I  fear  not  what  you  associate  with  Him  [and  will  not  be harmed]  unless  my  Lord  should  will  something.  My  Lord  encompasses  all  things  in knowledge;  then  will  you  not  remember?
Sahih International
And  how  should  I  fear  what  you  associate  while  you  do  not  fear  that  you  have associated  with Allah that  for  which  He  has  not  sent  down  to  you  any  authority?  So which  of  the  two  parties  has  more  right  to  security,  if  you  should  know?
Sahih International
They  who  believe  and  do  not  mix  their  belief  with  injustice  -  those  will  have  security, and  they  are  [rightly]  guided.
Sahih International
And  that  was  Our  [conclusive]  argument  which  We  gave  Abraham  against  his  people. We  raise  by  degrees  whom  We  will.  Indeed,  your  Lord  is  Wise  and  Knowing.
Sahih International
And  We  gave  to  Abraham,  Isaac  and  Jacob  -  all  [of  them]  We  guided.  And  Noah,  We guided  before;  and  among  his  descendants,  David  and  Solomon  and  Job  and  Joseph and  Moses  and  Aaron.  Thus  do  We  reward  the  doers  of  good.
Sahih International
And  Zechariah  and  John  and  Jesus  and  Elias  -   and  all  were  of  the  righteous.
Sahih International
And  Ishmael  and  Elisha  and  Jonah  and  Lot  -  and  all  [of  them]  We  preferred  over  the worlds.
Sahih International
And  [some]  among  their  fathers  and  their  descendants  and  their  brothers  -  and  We chose  them  and  We  guided  them  to  a  straight  path.
Sahih International
That  is  the  guidance  of Allah by  which  He  guides  whomever  He  wills  of  His  servants. But  if  they  had  associated  others  with Allah ,  then  worthless  for  them  would  be whatever  they  were  doing.
