Alif. Lam. Ra. (This is) a Scripture which We have revealed unto thee (Muhammad) that thereby thou mayst bring forth mankind from darkness unto light, by the permission of their Lord, unto the path of the Mighty, the Owner of Praise.

M.M.Pickthall 14:1

2

Allah, unto Whom belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. And woe unto the disbelievers from an awful doom.

M.M.Pickthall 14:2

3

Those who love the life of the world more than the Hereafter, and debar (men) from the Way of Allah and would have it crooked: such are far astray.

M.M.Pickthall 14:3

4

And We never sent a messenger save with the language of his folk, that he might make (the message) clear for them. Then Allah sendeth whom He will astray, and guideth whom He will. He is the Mighty, the Wise.

M.M.Pickthall 14:4

5

We verily sent Moses with Our revelations, saying: Bring thy people forth from darkness unto light. And remind them of the days of Allah. Lo! therein are revelations for each steadfast, thankful (heart).

M.M.Pickthall 14:5

6

And (remind them) how Moses said unto his people: Remember Allah's favour unto you when He delivered you from Pharaoh's folk who were afflicting you with dreadful torment, and were slaying your sons and sparing your women; that was a tremendous trial from your Lord.

M.M.Pickthall 14:6

7

And when your Lord proclaimed: If ye give thanks, I will give you more; but if ye are thankless, lo! My punishment is dire.

M.M.Pickthall 14:7

8

And Moses said: Though ye and all who are in the earth prove thankless, lo! Allah verily is Absolute, Owner of Praise.

M.M.Pickthall 14:8

9

Hath not the history of those before you reached you: the folk of Noah, and (the tribes of) 'Aad and Thamud, and those after them? None save Allah knoweth them. Their messengers came unto them with clear proofs, but they thrust their hands into their mouths, and said: Lo! we disbelieve in that wherewith ye have been sent, and lo! we are in grave doubt concerning that to which ye call us.

M.M.Pickthall 14:9

10

Their messengers said: Can there be doubt concerning Allah, the Creator of the heavens and the earth? He calleth you that He may forgive you your sins and reprieve you unto an appointed term. They said: Ye are but mortals like us, who would fain turn us away from what our fathers used to worship. Then bring some clear warrant.

M.M.Pickthall 14:10

11

Their messengers said unto them: We are but mortals like you, but Allah giveth grace unto whom He will of His slaves. It is not ours to bring you a warrant unless by the permission of Allah. In Allah let believers put their trust!

M.M.Pickthall 14:11

12

How should we not put our trust in Allah when He hath shown us our ways? We surely will endure what hurt ye do us. In Allah let the trusting put their trust!

M.M.Pickthall 14:12

13

And those who disbelieved said unto their messengers: Verily we will drive you out from our land, unless ye return to our religion. Then their Lord inspired them, (saying): Verily We shall destroy the wrong-doers,

M.M.Pickthall 14:13

14

And verily We shall make you to dwell in the land after them. This is for him who feareth My Majesty and feareth My threats.

M.M.Pickthall 14:14

15

And they sought help (from their Lord) and every froward potentate was brought to naught;

M.M.Pickthall 14:15

16

Hell is before him, and he is made to drink a festering water.

M.M.Pickthall 14:16

17

Which he sippeth but can hardly swallow, and death cometh unto him from every side while yet he cannot die, and before him is a harsh doom.

M.M.Pickthall 14:17

18

A similitude of those who disbelieve in their Lord: Their works are as ashes which the wind bloweth hard upon a stormy day. They have no control of aught that they have earned. That is the extreme failure.

M.M.Pickthall 14:18

19

Hast thou not seen that Allah hath created the heavens and the earth with truth? If He will, He can remove you and bring (in) some new creation.

M.M.Pickthall 14:19

20

And that is no great matter for Allah.

M.M.Pickthall 14:20

21

They all come forth unto their Lord. Then those who were despised say unto those who were scornful: We were unto you a following, can ye then avert from us aught of Allah's doom? They say: Had Allah guided us, we should have guided you. Whether we rage or patiently endure is (now) all one for us: we have no place of refuge.

M.M.Pickthall 14:21

22

And Satan saith, when the matter hath been decided: Lo! Allah promised you a promise of truth; and I promised you, then failed you. And I had no power over you save that I called unto you and ye obeyed me. So blame me not, but blame yourselves. I cannot help you, nor can ye help me. Lo! I disbelieved in that which ye before ascribed to me. Lo! for wrong-doers is a painful doom.

M.M.Pickthall 14:22

23

And those who believed and did good works are made to enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow, therein abiding by permission of their Lord, their greeting therein: Peace!

M.M.Pickthall 14:23

24

Seest thou not how Allah coineth a similitude: A goodly saying, as a goodly tree, its root set firm, its branches reaching into heaven,

M.M.Pickthall 14:24

25

Giving its fruit at every season by permission of its Lord? Allah coineth the similitudes for mankind in order that they may reflect.

M.M.Pickthall 14:25

26

And the similitude of a bad saying is as a bad tree, uprooted from upon the earth, possessing no stability.

M.M.Pickthall 14:26

27

Allah confirmeth those who believe by a firm saying in the life of the world and in the Hereafter, and Allah sendeth wrong-doers astray. And Allah doth what He will.

M.M.Pickthall 14:27

28

Hast thou not seen those who gave the grace of Allah in exchange for thanklessness and led their people down to the Abode of Loss,

M.M.Pickthall 14:28

29

(Even to) hell? They are exposed thereto. A hapless end!

M.M.Pickthall 14:29

30

And they set up rivals to Allah that they may mislead (men) from His way. Say: Enjoy life (while ye may) for lo! your journey's end will be the Fire.

M.M.Pickthall 14:30
