1
Blessed is He who has revealed the criteria (for discerning truth from falsehood) to His servant so that He could warn mankind.
2
To Him belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. He has not begotten any sons, nor does He have any partner in His kingdom. He has created all things with precisely accurate planning.
3
Yet they have chosen for themselves other deities besides Him, who do not create anything but rather are themselves created, who have no power over their own benefits, or trouble, and who have no control over life, death, and resurrection.
4
The unbelievers say, "This (Quran) is no more than a slanderous statement which h,e (Muhammad), with the help of some other people, has falsely invented." Certainly, this statement is unjust and sinful.
5
They have also said, "It ,(the Quran), is only ancient legends, which were written down while they were dictated to him in the mornings and the evenings".
6
(Muhammad), tell them, "The One who knows all the secrets of the heavens and the earth has revealed it; He is All-forgiving and All-merciful."
7
They say, "Why does this Messenger eat food, and walk in the streets? Why has not an angel been sent to him so that they could preach the message together?
8
Why has a treasure not been laid out for him or a garden from which he could eat been given to him." The unjust ones say, "You are merely following a bewitched person".
9
Look at their various views about you! They have gone astray and are not able to find the right path.
10
Blessed is He who could give you palaces and gardens wherein streams would flow, far better than what they want you to have.
11
They deny the Hour of Doom so We have prepared for them a burning fire.
12
Even if they were to see (this fire) from a distant place, they would only listen to its raging and roaring.
13
When they are thrown, bound, into a narrow place therein, then only will they wish for their death.
14
They will be told, "Do not pray to die only once but pray to die many times."
15
(Muhammad), ask them, "Is what you want better or the eternal garden promised to the pious ones as their reward and dwelling?
16
Therein they will eternally have whatever they want. This is a binding promise from your Lord."
17
On the day when the unbelievers and whatever they had been worshipping besides God will be resurrected, He will ask the idols, "Did you mislead My servants or did they themselves go astray from the right path?"
18
They will reply, "Lord, You alone deserve all glory! We were not supposed to choose any guardian other than you. Since you have been benevolent to these people and their fathers, they forgot Your guidance and, thus, became subject to perdition."
19
God will say (to the idolaters), "Your idols have rejected your faith. You cannot avoid their rejection nor can you find any help. Anyone of you who commits injustice will be made to suffer a great torment."
20
All the Messengerss whom We sent before, certainly, ate food and walked through the streets. We have made some of you (people) a trial for the others. Would you then exercise patience? Your Lord is All-aware.
21
Those who have no desire to meet Us have said, "Would that the angels had been sent to us or that we could see our Lord." They are really filled with pride and have committed the greatest and worst kind of rebellion and hostility.
22
On the day when the criminals see the angels, there will, certainly, be no rejoicing for them. Rather, they will plead to the angels, "Please keep away from us (do not drive us into hell)."
23
We shall call their deeds into Our presence and scatter them into the air as dust (turn them devoid of all virtue).
24
The dwellers of Paradise on that day will have the best residence and resting place.
25
On that day the sky will be crystal blue, clear of clouds. The angels will descend in groups
26
and the Absolute kingdom will belong to the Beneficent God.
27
It will be a hard day for the unbelievers. It will be a day when the unjust will bite their fingers, (regretfully) saying, "Would that we had followed the path of the Messengers.
28
Woe to us! Would that we had not been friends with so and so.
29
He led me away from the true guidance after it had come to us. Satan is a traitor to people."
30
The Messengers will say, "Lord, my people had abandoned this Quran."
