Glory be to (Allah), Who took His Servant (the Prophet Muhammad) for a Journey during the night from the Sacred Mosque (in Makkah) to the Farthest Mosque (in Jerusalem) whose Vicinities We blessed, so that We may show him some of Our Signs (verses): For He is the All Hearer (As-Sami'), the All Seer (Al-Baseer, One Who hears all and sees all).

S.V.Ahamed 17:1

2

And We gave Musa (Moses) the Scripture (Torah), and made it a Guidance to the Children of Israel, (saying to them:): "Do not take (anyone) other than Me to be the Disposer of (your) affairs."

S.V.Ahamed 17:2

3

O (you) descendents who have come from those whom We carried (in the Ark) with Nuh (Noah)! Surely he was a true servant, most grateful.

S.V.Ahamed 17:3

4

And We had decreed (and gave (clear) warning to) the Children of Israel in the Scripture (Torah), that you would make mischief twice on the earth and become very unjust and turn very arrogant (and that they would be punished twice)!

S.V.Ahamed 17:4

5

So when the first of the warnings came true, We sent against you (Children of Israel) Our servants (the Babylonians, who were) used to ruthless warfare: They entered the deepest parts of your homes; And it was a warning (totally) fulfilled.

S.V.Ahamed 17:5

6

Then We gave you a return (to freedom) against them: And We increased your resources and sons, and made you more numerous for man-power.

S.V.Ahamed 17:6

7

(And We said:) "If you do well, you do well for yourselves; If you do evil, (you do it) against yourselves." So, when the second warnings came true, (We let your enemies) disfigure your faces, and enter your mosque (in Jerusalem) like they had entered it before, and bring destruction to all that fell into their power.

S.V.Ahamed 17:7

8

It may be that your Lord may (still) show mercy to you; But if you go back (to your sins), We shall go back (to Our punishments): And We have made Hell a prison for disbelievers.

S.V.Ahamed 17:8

9

Surely, this Quran guides to what is just and right and gives the good news to the believers who work deeds of righteousness, that they shall have a great reward (of Paradise);

S.V.Ahamed 17:9

10

And to those who do not believe in the Hereafter, (it warns) that for them We have prepared a painful penalty (of Hell).

S.V.Ahamed 17:10

11

And man calls to (Allah) in (his) evil as he calls to (Allah) for the good, and man is used to hasty (actions).

S.V.Ahamed 17:11

12

And, We have fixed the night and the day as two Signs: The Sign of the night We have hidden away, whereas the Sign of the day, We have made to give you light; So that you may seek the Bounty from your Lord, and that you may know the number (of days) and count of the years: And all things We have fully explained (in detail).

S.V.Ahamed 17:12

13

And We have tied every man's fate onto his own neck: We shall bring out on the Day of Judgment for him a (register like) document, which He will see laid open (for him).

S.V.Ahamed 17:13

14

(It will be said to him:) "Read your (own record) book: Your soul is enough this day to make out an account against you."

S.V.Ahamed 17:14

15

Whoever takes the guidance, takes it for his own good: And Whoever goes astray does so to his loss: No bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another: And We will not come down with Our Anger until We had sent a messenger (to warn).

S.V.Ahamed 17:15

16

When We decide to destroy a town (a population) We (first) send a firm order to those from them who are given the good things of this life and still exceed (their) limits; So that the word (of warning) is proved true against them: After this We destroy it to total destruction.

S.V.Ahamed 17:16

17

And how many generations have We destroyed after Nuh (Noah)? And your Lord is sufficient as totally Informed (Khabeer) and All Seer (Baseer) of the sins of His servants.

S.V.Ahamed 17:17

18

If any (of you) wish for the passing things (of this life), We give him readily Those things as We will, to those persons as We will: In the end, We have (also) made Hell for him: He will burn in there, disgraced and rejected.

S.V.Ahamed 17:18

19

Whosoever wishes for the (reward in) Hereafter, and works hard for it with all his due effort, and keeps (his) Faith He is the one whose effort is acceptable (by Allah).

S.V.Ahamed 17:19

20

From the (many) gifts of your Lord, We give freely to all These (people) as well as those (people): The gifts of your Lord are not limited (to any).

S.V.Ahamed 17:20

21

See how We have given more to some than to others; But surely the Hereafter is higher in value and position and greater in excellence.

S.V.Ahamed 17:21

22

Do not take with Allah another god for worship; Or you (O man!) will sit in disgrace and neglect.

S.V.Ahamed 17:22

23

And your Lord has commanded that you worship none but Him. And that you be kind to your parents. Whether one or both of them reach old age in your life, do not say a word of (hate and) disrespect to them, and do not brush them aside, instead, talk to them with (respect and) honor.

S.V.Ahamed 17:23

24

And, (out of kindness), lower to them the arm of submission by being humble through mercy, and say: "My Lord! Grant to them Your Mercy as they brought me up (dearly) during my childhood."

S.V.Ahamed 17:24

Your Lord knows best what is in your hearts and souls: If you do deeds of righteousness, then surely He is Most Forgiving to those who turn to Him again and again (in true repentance).

S.V.Ahamed 17:25

26

And give the relatives their due rights, and (also) to those in want, and to the wayfarer: But do not waste (your wealth) like a spendthrift (or a wasteful person).

S.V.Ahamed 17:26

27

Surely wasters are brothers of the Satans'; And the Evil one (the prime Satan) is ungrateful to his Lord.

S.V.Ahamed 17:27

28

And even if you have to turn away from them (the deserving) to find from the Mercy from your Lord, which you expect, then speak a word of comfort and kindness to them.

S.V.Ahamed 17:28

29

And do not make your hand tied to your neck, (like a miser), nor push it out to its longest reach, so that you become worthy of blame and being penniless.

S.V.Ahamed 17:29

30

Surely, your Lord gives plenty for livelihood to whom He pleases, but He gives in a right amount (to all). Verily, He knows and regards all His servants.
