1
God's help will certainly support (the believers), so pagans do not (seek) to hasten it. God is too Glorious and Exalted to be considered equal to idols.
2
He sends the angels with the Spirit to carry His orders to whichever of His servants He wants so that they would warn people that He is the only God and that people must have fear of Him.
3
He has created the heavens and the earth for a genuine purpose. He is too Exalted to be considered equal to anything else.
4
He created the human being from a drop of fluid but the human being openly disputes His Word.
5
He created cattle which provide you with clothes, food, and other benefits.
6
How beautiful you find them when you bring them home and when you drive them out to graze.
7
They carry your heavy loads to lands which you would not have been able to reach without great difficulty. Your Lord is certainly Compassionate and All-Merciful.
8
He created horses, mules, and donkeys for you to ride and as a means of beauty. He has also created things that you do not know.
9
Some paths lead away from God but one must follow the path that leads to God. Had God wanted, He could have guided (all to the right path).
10
It is God who sends down water from the sky for you to drink and produces plants as pasture for your cattle.
11
(With this water) He causes corn, olives, palm-trees, vines, and all kinds of fruits to grow. In this there is evidence (of the existence of God) for the people of understanding.
12
God has made the day and the night, the sun and the moon, and all the stars subservient to you by His command. In this there is evidence of the truth for people of understanding.
13
All that He has created for you on the earth are of different colors. In this there is evidence of the Truth for the people who take heed.
14
It is God who put the oceans at your disposal so that you could find therein fresh fish for food and ornaments with which to deck yourselves with. You will find ships that sail for you so that you may travel in search of the bounties of God and give Him thanks.
15
God has fixed the mountains on earth lest you should be hurled away when it quakes. Therein He has also made rivers and roads so that you will find your way.
16
The stars and other signs also help people to find their way.
17
Is the One who can create equal to the one who cannot create anything? Why, then, will you not consider?
18
Even if you wanted to count up all of God's blessings, you would not be able to. God is All-forgiving and All-merciful.
19
God knows all that you conceal or reveal.
20
Whatever (idols) they worship besides God can create nothing for they are themselves created.
21
They are not living but are dead. They can not know when they will be raised.
22
Your Lord is only One. The hearts of those who do not believe in the life hereafter dislike (the truth). They are puffed up with pride.
23
God certainly knows whatever you conceal or reveal. He does not love the proud ones.
24
When they are asked, "What has your Lord revealed to you?" they say, "Only ancient legends".
25
Besides their own burdens, on the Day of Judgment ,they will have to carry on the burdens of those whom they have misled without knowledge. How evil that burden will be!
26
Those who went before them had also devised evil plans. God demolished their houses, destroying their very foundations. Their ceilings toppled on their heads and torment struck them from a direction which they had never expected.
27
God will humiliate them on the Day of Judgment and ask them, "Where are the idols which you had considered equal to Me and which were the cause of hostility and animosity among you?" The people who were given knowledge will say, "It is the unbelievers who face disgrace and trouble on this day."
28
The unjust, who will be seized by the angels, will submit themselves, obey, and say, "We were not evil-doers." But God certainly knows what they had been doing.
29
They will be commanded to enter hell to live therein forever. How terrible will be the place of the proud ones!
30
The pious ones will be asked, "What did your Lord reveal to you?" They will reply, "He revealed only good." The share of the righteous ones is virtue in this world and greater virtue in the life to come. How blessed will be the dwelling of the pious ones!
