A. L. M. R. These (letters) are proofs of this scripture. What is revealed to you from your Lord is the truth, but most people do not believe.

R.Khalifa 13:1

2

GOD is the One who raised the heavens without pillars that you can see, then assumed all authority. He committed the sun and the moon, each running (in its orbit) for a predetermined period. He controls all things, and explains the revelations, that you may attain certainty about meeting your Lord.

R.Khalifa 13:2

3

He is the One who constructed the earth and placed on it mountains and rivers. And from the different kinds of fruits, He made them into pairs ?males and females. The night overtakes the day. These are solid proofs for people who think.

R.Khalifa 13:3

4

On earth, there are adjacent lots that produce orchards of grapes, crops, palm trees?dioecious and non-dioecious. Although they are irrigated with the same water, we prefer some of them over others in eating. These are solid proofs for people who understand.

R.Khalifa 13:4

5

If you ever wonder, the real wonder is their saying: After we turn into dust, do we get recreated anew? These are the ones who have disbelieved in their Lord. These are the ones who have incurred shackles around their necks. These are the ones who have incurred Hell, wherein they abide forever.

R.Khalifa 13:5

6

They challenge you to bring doom upon them, rather than turning righteous! Sufficient precedents have been set for them in the past. Indeed, your Lord is full of forgiveness towards the people, in spite of their transgressions, and your Lord is also strict in enforcing retribution.

R.Khalifa 13:6

7

Those who disbelieved say, If only a miracle could come down to him from his Lord (we will then believe). You are simply a warner?every community receives a guiding teacher.

R.Khalifa 13:7

8

GOD knows what every female bears, and what every womb releases, or gains. Everything He does is perfectly measured.

R.Khalifa 13:8

9

The Knower of all secrets and declarations; the Supreme, the Most High.

R.Khalifa 13:9

10

It is the same whether you conceal your thoughts, or declare them, or hide in the darkness of the night, or act in the daylight.

R.Khalifa 13:10

11

Shifts (of angels) take turns, staying with each one of you?they are in front of you and behind you. They stay with you, and guard you in accordance with GOD's commands. Thus, GOD does not change the condition of any people unless they themselves make the decision to change. If GOD wills any hardship for any people, no force can stop it. For they have none beside Him as Lord and Master.

R.Khalifa 13:11

12

He is the One who shows you the lightning as a source of fear, as well as hope, and He initiates the loaded clouds.

R.Khalifa 13:12

13

The thunder praises His glory, and so do the angels, out of reverence for Him. He sends the lightning bolts, which strike in accordance with His will. Yet, they argue about GOD, though His power is awesome.

R.Khalifa 13:13

14

Imploring Him is the only legitimate supplication, while the idols they implore beside Him, cannot ever respond. Thus, they are like those who stretch their hands to the water, but nothing reaches their mouths. The supplications of the disbelievers are in vain.

R.Khalifa 13:14

15

To GOD prostrates everyone in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly, and so do their shadows in the mornings and the evenings.

R.Khalifa 13:15

16

Say, Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth? Say, GOD. Say, Why then do you set up besides Him masters who do not possess any power to benefit or harm even themselves? Say, Is the blind the same as the seer? Is darkness the same as the light? Have they found idols besides GOD who created creations similar to His creations, to the point of not distinguishing the two creations? Say, GOD is the Creator of all things, and He is the One, the Supreme.

R.Khalifa 13:16

17

He sends down water from the sky, causing the valleys to overflow, then the rapids produce abundant foam. Similarly, when they use fire to refine metals for their jewelry or equipment, foam is produced. GOD thus cites analogies for the truth and falsehood. As for the foam, it goes to waste, while that which benefits the people stays close to the ground. GOD thus cites the analogies.

R.Khalifa 13:17

18

Those who respond to their Lord deserve the good rewards. As for those who failed to respond to Him, if they possessed everything on earth?even twice as much?they would readily give it up as ransom. They have incurred the worst reckoning, and their final abode is Hell; what a miserable destiny.

R.Khalifa 13:18

19

Is one who recognizes that your Lord's revelations to you are the truth equal to one who is blind? Only those who possess intelligence will take heed.

R.Khalifa 13:19

20

They are the ones who fulfill their pledge to GOD, and do not violate the covenant.

R.Khalifa 13:20

21

They join what GOD has commanded to be joined, reverence their Lord, and fear the dreadful reckoning.

R.Khalifa 13:21

22

They steadfastly persevere in seeking their Lord, observe the Contact Prayers (Salat), spend from our provisions to them secretly and publicly, and counter evil with good. These have deserved the best abode.

R.Khalifa 13:22

23

They enter the gardens of Eden, together with the righteous among their parents, their spouses, and their children. The angels will enter to them from every door.

R.Khalifa 13:23

24

Peace be upon you, because you steadfastly persevered. What a joyous destiny.

R.Khalifa 13:24

25

As for those who violate GOD's covenant after pledging to keep it, and sever what GOD has commanded to be joined, and commit evil, they have incurred condemnation; they have incurred the worst destiny.

R.Khalifa 13:25

26

GOD is the One who increases the provision for whomever He wills, or withholds it. They have become preoccupied with this life, and this life, compared to the Hereafter, is nil.

R.Khalifa 13:26

27

Those who disbelieve would say, If only a miracle could come down to him from his Lord (we would believe). Say, GOD sends astray whomever He wills, and guides to Him only those who obey.

R.Khalifa 13:27

28

They are the ones whose hearts rejoice in remembering GOD. Absolutely, by remembering GOD, the hearts rejoice.

R.Khalifa 13:28

29

Those who believe and lead a righteous life have deserved happiness and a joyous destiny.

R.Khalifa 13:29

30

We have sent you (O Rashad) to this community, just as we did for other communities in the past. You shall recite to them what we reveal to you, for they have disbelieved in the Most Gracious. Say, He is my Lord. There is no god except He. I put my trust in Him alone; to Him is my ultimate destiny.

R.Khalifa 13:30
