1
Praise be to God who created the heavens and the earth, and Who made darkness and light. Yet those who have been unappreciative of their Lord continue to deviate.
2
He is the One who created you from clay, then decreed a fixed time period for you; a time defined by Him. Yet you are still skeptical.
3
He is God in the heavens and the earth. He knows your secrets and what you reveal; and He knows what you earn. They do not Witness the Signs
4
Whenever a sign came to them from their Lord, they turned away from it.
5
They have denied the truth when it came to them. The news will ultimately come to them of what they were mocking.
6
Did they not see how many generations We have destroyed before them? We granted them dominance over the land more than what We granted you, We sent the clouds to them abundantly, and We made rivers flow beneath them; then We destroyed them for their sins, and established after them a new generation.
7
If We had sent down to you a book already written on paper, and they touched it with their own hands, then those who have rejected would say, This is but clear magic!
8
They said, If only an angel were sent down to him? But if We had sent down an angel, then the matter would be over, and they would not be reprieved.
9
If We had chosen an angel, We would have made him appear as a man, and We would have confused them in what they already are confused.
10
Messengers before you were ridiculed; but those who mocked them suffered the consequences of what they ridiculed.
11
Say, Roam the earth, then see what the punishment of the ingrates was!
12
Say, To whom is all that is in heavens and earth? Say, To God. He has decreed mercy on Himself, that He will gather you to the day of Resurrection in which there is no doubt. Those who have lost themselves, they do not acknowledge.
13
For Him is what resides in the night and in the day; and He is the Hearer, the Knower.
14
Say, Shall I take other than God as an ally; the creator of heavens and earth; while He feeds and is not fed! Say, I have been commanded to be the first who peacefully surrenders. Do not be of those who set up partners.
15
Say, I fear if I disobey my Lord, the retribution of a great day!
16
Whoever He spares from it, then He had treated him with mercy; and that is the obvious success.
17
If God were to touch you with harm, then none can remove it except Him; and if He were to touch you with good, then He is capable of all things.
18
He is the Supreme over His servants; and He is the Wise, the Ever-aware.
19
Say, Which is the greatest testimony? Say, God is witness between me and you, and He has inspired to me this Quran that I may warn you with it and whomever it reaches. Do you bear witness that along with God are other gods? Say, I do not bear witness! Say, He is only One god, and I am innocent of your setting up partners!
20
Those to whom We have given the book know it as they know their children. Those who lost themselves, they do not acknowledge.
21
Who is more wicked than one who invents lies about God, or denies His signs! The wicked will never succeed.
22
The day We gather them all, then We say to those who set up partners: Where are your partners whom you used to claim?
23
Then, their only trial was to say, By God, our Lord, we did not set up partners!
24
See how they lied to themselves; and what they invented deserted them.
25
Among them are those who listen to you; and We have made covers over their hearts to prevent them from understanding it, and deafness in their ears; and if they see every sign they will not acknowledge; even when they come to you they argue, those who reject say, This is nothing but the tales from the past!
26
They are deterring others from it, and keeping away themselves; but they will only destroy themselves, yet they do not notice.
27
If you could see when they are standing over the fire, they say, If only we were sent back, we would not deny the signs of our Lord, and we would be those who acknowledge!
28
No, it is merely what they have been concealing that has now become evident to them; and if they were sent back they would return to what they were deterred from doing, they are but liars!
29
They had also said, There is only this worldly life, and we will not be resurrected!
30
If you could see them when they are standing at their Lord? He said, Is this not the truth? They said, Yes, by our Lord. He said, Then taste the retribution for what you have rejected.
