Alif. Lam. Mim.

A.Maududi 29:1

2

Do people think that they will be let go merely by saying: “We believe,” and that they will not be tested,

A.Maududi 29:2

3

for We indeed tested those who went before them? Allah will most certainly ascertain those who spoke the truth and those who lied.

A.Maududi 29:3

4

Do the evil-doers suppose that they will get the better of Us? How evil is their judgement!

A.Maududi 29:4

5

Let him who looks forward to meeting Allah know that Allah's appointed term will surely come to pass. He is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

A.Maududi 29:5

6

Whosoever strives (in the cause of Allah) does so to his own good. Surely Allah stands in no need of anyone in the whole Universe.

A.Maududi 29:6

7

Those who believe and do good deeds, We shall cleanse them of their evil deeds and reward them according to the best of their deeds.

A.Maududi 29:7

8

We have enjoined upon man kindness to his parents, but if they exert pressure on you to associate with Me in My Divinity any that you do not know (to be My associate), do not obey them. To Me is your return, and I shall let you know all that you have done.

A.Maududi 29:8

9

As for those who believed and acted righteously, We shall certainly admit them among the righteous.

A.Maududi 29:9

10

Among people there are some who say: “We believe in Allah.” But when such a person is made to endure suffering in Allah's cause, he reckons the persecution he suffers at the hands of people as though it is a chastisement from Allah. But if victory comes from your Lord, the same person will say “We were with you.” Does Allah not know whatever is in the hearts of the people of the world?

A.Maududi 29:10

11

Allah will surely ascertain who are the believers and who are the hypocrites.

A.Maududi 29:11

12

The unbelievers say to the believers: “Follow our way and we will carry the burden of your sins.” (They say so even though) they are not going to carry any part of their sins. Surely they are lying.

A.Maududi 29:12

13

They will certainly carry their own burdens and other burdens besides their own. They will assuredly be called to account on the Day of Resurrection concerning the fabrications which they contrived.

A.Maududi 29:13

14

We did indeed send Noah to his people and he lived among them a thousand years save fifty. Eventually the Flood overtook them while they were engaged in wrongdoing.

A.Maududi 29:14

15

Then We rescued Noah together with the people in the Ark and made it (that is, the Ark) a lesson for all people.

A.Maududi 29:15

16

We sent Abraham and he said to his people: “Serve Allah and fear Him. This is better for you if you only knew.

A.Maududi 29:16

17

Those that you worship instead of Allah are merely idols, and you are simply inventing lies (about them). Indeed those whom you worship beside Allah have no power to provide you with any sustenance. So seek your sustenance from Allah and serve only Him and give thanks to Him alone. It is to Him that you will be sent back.

A.Maududi 29:17

18

And if you give the lie (to the Messenger), then many nations before you also gave the lie (to their Messengers). The Messenger is charged with no other duty than to deliver the Message in clear terms.”

A.Maududi 29:18

19

Have they never observed how Allah creates for the first time and then repeats it? Indeed (to repeat the creation of a thing) is even easier for Allah (than creating it for the first time).

A.Maududi 29:19

20

Say: “Go about the earth and see how He created for the first time, and then Allah will recreate life.” Surely, Allah has power over everything.

A.Maududi 29:20

21

He chastises whom He will and forgives whom He will. To Him all of you will be sent back.

A.Maududi 29:21

22

You cannot overpower Allah, neither on the earth nor in the heaven. None can protect you from Allah nor come to your aid against Him.

A.Maududi 29:22

23

Those who disbelieved in Allah's signs and in meeting Him, it is they who have despaired of My Mercy; it is they for whom a painful chastisement lies ahead.

A.Maududi 29:23

24

The people (of Abraham) had no other answer than to say: “Kill him or burn him.” But Allah delivered him from the fire. There are many Signs in this for those who believe.

A.Maududi 29:24

25

He said: “You have taken up idols instead of Allah as a bond of love among yourselves in the present life, but on the Day of Resurrection you will disown and curse one another. Your refuge shall be the Fire, and none will come to your aid.”

A.Maududi 29:25

26

Then did Lot believe him, and Abraham said: “I am emigrating unto my Lord. He is All-Powerful, All-Wise,”

A.Maududi 29:26

27

and We bestowed upon him (offspring like) Isaac and Jacob, and bestowed prophethood and the Book on his descendants and granted him his reward in this world; he will certainly be among the righteous in the Hereafter.

A.Maududi 29:27

28

We sent Lot and he said to his people: “You commit the abomination that none in the world ever committed before you.

A.Maududi 29:28

29

What! Do you go to men (to satisfy your lust), engage in highway robbery, and commit evil deeds in your gatherings?” Then they had no answer to offer other than to say: “Bring Allah's chastisement upon us if you are truthful.”

A.Maududi 29:29

30

Lot said: “My Lord, aid me against these mischievous people.”

A.Maududi 29:30
