1
Mankind's Reckoning has drawn very close to them, yet they heedlessly turn away.
2
No fresh reminder comes to them from their Lord without their listening to it as if it was a game.
3
Their hearts are distracted. Those who do wrong confer together secretly, saying, 'Is this man anything but a human being like yourselves? Do you succumb to magic with your eyes wide open?'
4
Say: 'My Lord knows what is said in heaven and earth. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.'
5
Furthermore they say, 'A muddled jumble of dreams!' and, 'He has invented it!' and, 'He is a poet!' and, 'Let him bring us a Sign like those sent to previous peoples.'
6
None of the cities which We destroyed before them had iman. So will they?
7
We have only ever sent before you men who were given Revelation. Ask the People of the Reminder if you do not know.
8
We did not give them bodies which did not eat food, nor were they immortal.
9
But We kept Our promise to them and rescued them and those We willed, and destroyed the profligate.
10
We have sent down to you a Book containing your Reminder. So will you not use your intellect?
11
How many cities which did wrong have We utterly destroyed, raising up other people after them!
12
When they perceived Our violent force they ran away from it.
13
'Do not run away! Return to the life of luxury you enjoyed and to the places where you lived, so that you can be interrogated!'
14
They said, 'Alas for us! We were indeed wrongdoers!'
15
That cry of theirs went on until We made them stubble, silent, stamped out.
16
We did not create heaven and earth and everything in between them as a game.
17
If We had desired to have some amusement, We would have derived it from Our Presence, but We did not do that.
18
Rather We hurl the truth against falsehood and it cuts right through it and it vanishes clean away! Woe without end for you for what you portray!
19
Everyone in the heavens and the earth belongs to Him. Those in His presence do not consider themselves too great to worship Him and do not grow tired of it.
20
They glorify Him by night and day, without ever flagging.
21
Or have they taken gods out of the earth who can bring the dead to life?
22
If there had been any gods besides Allah in heaven or earth, they would both be ruined. Glory be to Allah, Lord of the Throne, beyond what they describe!
23
He will not be questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned.
24
Or have they taken other gods besides Him? Say: 'Produce your proof! This is the message of those with me and the message of those before me.' But most of them do not know the truth, so they turn away.
25
We sent no Messenger before you without revealing to him: 'There is no god but Me, so worship Me.'
26
They say, 'The All-Merciful has a son.' Glory be to Him! No, they are honoured slaves!
27
They do not precede Him in speech and they act on His command.
28
He knows what is in front of them and what is behind them. They only intercede on behalf of those with whom He is pleased, and even they are apprehensive out of fear of Him.
29
Were any of them to say, 'I am a god apart from Him,' We would repay him with Hell. That is how We repay wrongdoers.
30
Do those who are kafir not see that the heavens and the earth were sewn together and then We unstitched them and that We made from water every living thing? So will they not have iman?
