Alif Lam Mim

A.Yusuf Ali 2:1

2

This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah;

A.Yusuf Ali 2:2

3

Who believe in the Unseen, are steadfast in prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them;

A.Yusuf Ali 2:3

4

And who believe in the Revelation sent to thee, and sent before thy time, and (in their hearts) have the assurance of the Hereafter.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:4

5

They are on (true guidance), from their Lord, and it is these who will prosper.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:5

6

As to those who reject Faith, it is the same to them whether thou warn them or do not warn them; they will not believe.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:6

7

Allah hath set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing, and on their eyes is a veil; great is the penalty they (incur).

A.Yusuf Ali 2:7

8

Of the people there are some who say: "We believe in Allah and the Last day;" but they do not (really) believe.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:8

9

Fain would they deceive Allah and those who believe, but they only deceive themselves, and realize (it) not!

A.Yusuf Ali 2:9

10

In their hearts is a disease; and Allah has increased their disease: and grievous is the penalty they (incur), because they are false (to themselves).

A.Yusuf Ali 2:10

11

When it is said to them: "Make not mischief on the earth," they say: "Why, we only want to make peace!"

A.Yusuf Ali 2:11

12

Of a surety, they are the ones who make mischief, but they realize (it) not.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:12

13

When it is said to them: "Believe as the others believe:" they say: "Shall we believe as the fools believe?" - nay, of a surety they are the fools, but they do not know.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:13

14

When they meet those who believe, they say: "We believe;" but when they are alone with their evil ones, they say: "We are really with you we (were) only jesting."

A.Yusuf Ali 2:14

15

Allah will throw back their mockery on them, and give them rope in their trespasses; so they will wander like blind ones (to and fro).

A.Yusuf Ali 2:15

16

These are they who have bartered Guidance for error: but their traffic is profitless, and they have lost true direction.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:16

17

Their similitude is that of a man who kindled a fire; when it lighted all around him, Allah took away their light and left them in utter darkness. So they could not see.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:17

18

Deaf, dumb, and blind, they will not return (to the path).

A.Yusuf Ali 2:18

19

Or (another similitude) is that of a rain-laden cloud from the sky: in it are zones of darkness, and thunder and lightning: they press their fingers in their ears to keep out the stunning thunderclap, the while they are in terror of death. But Allah is ever round the rejecters of Faith!

A.Yusuf Ali 2:19

20

The lightning all but snatches away their sight; every time the light (helps) them, they walk therein, and when the darkness grows on them, they stand still, and if Allah willed, He could take away their faculty of hearing and seeing; for Allah hath power over all things.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:20

21

O ye people! adore your Guardian Lord, Who created you and those who came before you, that ye may become righteous,

A.Yusuf Ali 2:21

22

Who has made the earth your couch and the heavens your canopy; and sent down rain from the heavens; and brought forth therewith fruits for your sustenance; then set not up rivals unto Allah when ye know (the truth).

A.Yusuf Ali 2:22

23

And if ye are in doubt as to what We have revealed from time to time to Our servant, then produce a like thereunto; and call your witnesses or helpers (if there are any) besides Allah, if your (doubts) are true.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:23

24

But if ye cannot - and of a surety ye cannot - then fear the Fire whose fuel is Men and Stones - which is prepared for those who reject Faith.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:24

25

But give glad tidings to those who believe and work righteousness, that their portion is Gardens, beneath which rivers flow. Every time they are fed with fruits therefrom, they say: "Why, this is what we were fed with before," for they are given things in similitude; and they have therein Companions pure (and holy); and they abide therein (forever).

A.Yusuf Ali 2:25

26

Allah disdains not to use the similitude of things, lowest as well as highest. Those who believe know that it is truth from their Lord; but those who reject Faith say: "What means Allah by this similitude?" By it He causes many to stray, and many He leads into the right path; but He causes not to stray, except those who forsake (the path) -

A.Yusuf Ali 2:26

27

Those who break Allah's Covenant after it is ratified, and who sunder what Allah has ordered to be joined, and do mischief on earth: these cause loss (only) to themselves.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:27

28

How can ye reject the faith in Allah? - Seeing that ye were without life, and He gave you life; then will He cause you to die, and will again bring you to life; and again to Him will ye return.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:28

29

It is He Who hath created for you all things that are on earth; then He turned to the heaven and made them into seven firmaments. And of all things He hath perfect knowledge.

A.Yusuf Ali 2:29

30

Behold, Thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth." They said: "Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?- whilst we do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy (name)?" He said: "I know what ye know not."

A.Yusuf Ali 2:30
