The command of Allah has come, but you [Qur'an 8:32] do not hasten it. Glory be to Him and High is He above what they associate.
He sends down the angels with the inspiration of His command upon whoever He wills of His slaves to harbor there that: "There is no deity except Me; so fear Me".
He created the heavens and the earth in the truth. High is He above what they associate.
He created man from a sperm-drop; then still he becomes an open antagonist.
And the livestock, He has created them for you [mankind]; in them are warmth and benefits, and from them you eat.
And for you in the livestock is beauty when you rest them and when you take them out [for work].
And [the livestock] carry your loads to a land you could not reach there except with difficulty to yourselves. Indeed, your Lord is Most-Kind, Most- Merciful.
And [He created] the horses and the mules and the donkeys for you to ride them and [many other life] adornment. And He creates what you [mankind] do not know.
And against Allah aimed the way [of the antagonist, Qur'an 16:4] and crooked ones are of that way. And if He willed, He could have guided you [mankind] all.
It is He who sends down rain from the sky; from it is drink and from it is vegetation in this you are pasturing.
He causes to grow for you thereby the crops, and the olives, and the palm trees, and the grapevines, and every kind of the fruits. Indeed in that is surely a sign for a people who think.
And He has subjected for you the night and the day and the sun and the moon, and the stars are subjected by His command. Indeed in that are surely signs for a people who reason.
And [He has subjected] for you whatever He has created in the earth of varying colours. Indeed, in that is surely a sign for people who remember.
And it is He who subjected the sea for you to eat therefrom tender meat and to extract therefrom ornaments that you wear and to show the ships plowing through, and that you may seek from His bounty; and hopefully you will be grateful.
And He has cast in the earth firm mountains, lest the earth shakes with you, and rivers and roads so that you may guide yourselves,
And [by] landmarks and by the stars people guide themselves.
Then is the one who creates like the one who does not create? Will you not then be remembering?
And if you should count the favours of Allah, you could not enumerate them. Indeed, Allah is All-Forgiving, Most-Merciful.
And Allah knows what you [mankind] conceal and what you declare.
And those [taghut, Qur'an 16:36] they call other than Allah do not create a thing, and they are created,
[They are] dead, lifeless and they do not perceive when they will be raised.
Your god is one God. So those who do not believe in the Hereafter - their hearts are in refusal, and they are arrogant.
Assuredly, Allah knows what they conceal and what they declare. Indeed, He does not love the arrogant.
And when it is said to them, "What has your Lord sent down?" They say, "Legends of the ancients,"
That they may bear their own burdens in full on the Day of Resurrection and [some] of the burdens of those whom they misled them without a knowledge. Verily, evil is what they bear.
Those before them had already plotted, but Allah came at their building from the foundations, so the roof fell upon them from above them, and the torment came to them from where they did not perceive.
Then on the Day of Resurrection He will disgrace them and say, "Where are My `partners' those who you were disputing concerning them?" Those who were given knowledge would say, "Indeed disgrace, this Day, and evil are upon the infidels."
Those whom the angels would recall their self oppression [on the Day of Judgment] then they cast out the surrender [Qur'an 20:27]: "We were working no evil." [The angels will say], "No but is there [in the rewind]! Indeed Allah knows about what you were working on.
So enter the gates of Hell to abide therein for ever, and surely wretched is the adobe of the arrogant."
And it will be said to those who feared Allah, "What did your Lord send down?" They will say, "Good." For those who do good in this world is good; and the home of the Hereafter is better. And Surely excellent is the adobe of the righteous -
Gardens of perpetuity, they will enter them, flowing from beneath them are the rivers. Therein would be for them whatever they wish. Thus does Allah reward those who fear [Allah] -
Those who the angels would recall them [on the Day of Judgment] "Good [Qur'an 16:30]". They [the angels] will say, "Peace be upon you! Enter Paradise about what you were working on."
Are they awaiting except that the angels should come to them or the command of your Lord [O Muhammad] should come? Thus did those before them. And Allah did not oppress them, but they were oppressing themselves.
So the evil consequences of what they did struck them and coiled in them that [penalty] which they were about it ridiculing.
And those who associate others with Allah say, "If Allah had willed, we would have worshiped other than Him nothing, neither us nor our parents and we would have prohibited other than it [taghut - Qur'an 16:36] nothing." Thus did those do before them [e.g., Qur'an 16:36]. So is there upon the messengers except the clear notification?
And We certainly sent in every nation a messenger, [notifying], "Worship Allah and avoid taghut." And from them [were some] who Allah has guided, and from them [were some others] upon who the straying was [duly] authorized. So proceed through the earth and observe how was the end of the beliers.
If you should strive upon guiding them, [O Muhammad], for indeed, Allah does not guide those whoever He strays. And for them there are no supporters.
And they swear by Allah their strongest oaths, "Not will Allah raise whoever dies." No but is there [on Allah]. A promise upon Him being true, but most of the people do not know.
[He will do that] to manifest to them that wherein they are differing [Qur'an 16:38] and let those who have disbelieved know that they were liars.
Our saying to a thing when We intend it is not but that We say for it, "Be," and it is.
And those who emigrated in [the cause of] Allah after whatever [persecution] they were being persecuted - Most certainly We will give them a good adobe in this world; but surely the reward of the Hereafter is greater, if only they were knowing.
[They are] those who persevere patiently and upon their Lord they rely.
And We sent not before you except men to whom We revealed. So ask the people of the Reminder [the Qur'an] if you [people] were not knowing.
[We sent such messengers] with the proofs and the Zaboors [books]. And We sent down to you [O Muhammad] the Reminder [Qur'an] that you [O Muhammad] may make clear to mankind what was sent down to them and that they might give thought.
Then, do those who have planned evil deeds feel secure that Allah will slide the land with them down or that the punishment [baked brimstones- filling the lowland] will befall upon them from where they do not perceive?
Or that He may seize them in their fleeing to and fro so they are not in exits.
Or that He may take them upon fear? For sure, your Lord is Most-Kind, Most-Merciful.
Have they not observed towards whatever Allah has created - anything whose shadows incline to the right and to the left, prostrating to Allah, while they are humble.
And whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth of moving creatures prostrates to Allah [alone] and [also] the angels, and they are not arrogant.
They [angels] are fearing their Lord from above them [i.e., the moving creatures on earth], and they do what they are commanded.
And Allah has said, "Do not take for yourselves two Gods. He is the one and only God. So Me alone, then you [mankind] should fear Me."
And to Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and to Him belongs the religion constantly. Then is it others than Allah that you fear?
And whatever you have of favour - it is from Allah. Then when hardship touches you, to Him you cry for aid.
Then when He relieves the hardship from you, actually, a party of you associates others with their Lord
So as to disbelieve in what We have given them. So enjoy [your disbelief], but soon you will be knowing [Qur'an 16:56].
And they assign to what [those associates] - they know nothing - a share of whatever [hardship and relief -Qur'an 16:52-54] We have provided them. By Allah, you will surely be questioned on what you were inventing.
And they assign to Allah daughters - exalted is He - and for themselves they are not desiring.
And when one of them is given the good news about the female [birth], his face turns dark, and he suppresses grief.
He hides from the people any ill whatever he has been informed about [the good news]. Should he hold that humiliation up, or bury that in the dust? Verily, evil is what they decide [bury female alive].
For those who do not believe in the Hereafter is the evil example; and for Allah is the highest example. And He is Exalted in Might, the Wise.
And if Allah were to consider the people about their oppression [in this world], He would not ignore upon the earth any moving creature, but He delays them to a stated term [Qur'an 7:33]. And when their term comes, they will not remain behind an hour, nor will they advance [it].
And they attribute to Allah what they hate, and their tongues assert the lie that they will have the best [in return]. No doubt that for them is the Fire, and that they will be overly [ignored therein].
By Allah, certainly We did send [punishments] to nations before you [O Muhammad] then the Satan sugarcoated those deeds [punishments] for them. So he is the infidels' ally today, and [so] for them is a painful punishment [only in Hell].
And We did not send down upon you the Book, [O Muhammad], except that you may manifest to them this [sugar coating is why to ignore them] that the infidels were differing, in addition to being a guidance and mercy for a people who believe.
And Allah had sent down water from the heaven [outerspace] then in that He gives the earth life after its lifelessness. Indeed in that is indeed a sign for a people who listen.
And indeed, for you in livestock exists a lesson. We give you drink from what is in their bellies - between excretion and blood - pure refreshing milk for the ones who drink.
And from the fruits of the palm trees and grapevines you take from there intoxicant as well as a good provision. Indeed in that is surely a sign for a people who reason.
And your Lord inspired to the bee, "However you should take homes from the mountains, and from the trees and from what they [people] construct.
Then eat from all the fruits and follow the ways of your Lord smoothly." There emerges from their bellies a drink, varying in its colour, therein is healing for the mankind. Indeed in that is indeed a sign for a people who reflect.
And Allah has created you all, and then recall you [from your past] and [in the recalling process] from you becomes the one who is returned to the [senior infant stage, Qur'an 22:5] the most incapable stage of life so that he may know nothing after having known much. Indeed, Allah is All-Knowing, Most Capable.
And Allah has favoured some of you over some [others] in the livelihood. So those who were favoured would not give by their livelihood upon whatever their right hands possess so they would be equal therein. Then is it the favour of Allah they reject?
And Allah has made for you of your own kind spouses and has made for you sons and grandchildren from your spouses and has provided you of the good things. Then in falsehood do they believe and in the favour of Allah they disbelieve?
And they worship other than Allah a thing that which does not own provision for them from the heavens and the earth and [in fact], they are unable.
So do not impose equals to Allah. Indeed, Allah knows and you do not know.
Allah presents an example: an owned slave who cannot be upon a thing [independent] and he to whom We have provided from Us good provision, so he spends from it secretly and publicly. Can they be equal? Praise to Allah. No but is there! Most of them do not know.
And Allah presents an example of two men, one of them dumb who cannot be upon a thing [straight], so he is a burden upon his guardian. Whichever way he directs him, he does not come with a good. Is he equal to one who commands in justice, while he is on a straight path?
And to Allah belongs the unseen [aspects] of the heavens and the earth. And the command for the Hour is not but as a glance of the eye or it is nearer. Indeed, Allah is upon every thing competent.
And Allah has exited you from the wombs of your mothers not knowing any thing [i.e., automatically]; and He made for you the hearing and the eyes and the hearts, perhaps you may give thanks.
Do they not see the birds controlled in the atmosphere of the sky? Not except Allah holds them up. Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe.
And Allah has made for you from your homes serenity and made for you from the hides of the animals light adobes that you find light [to carry on] your traveling day and your encampment day; and from their wool, fur and hair is furnishing and enjoyment for a time.
And Allah has made for you [mankind], from what He has created, shadows and has made for you from the mountains, shelters and has made for you garments to preserve you [in and from] the heat and garments to protect you from your fighting. Thus does He complete His favor upon you that perhaps you might submit [to Him].
So if they turn away, [O Muhammad] - then only upon you is the obvious notification.
They recognize the favour of Allah; then they deny it. And most of them are the infidels.
And [mention] the Day when We will resurrect a witness from every nation. Then [apologies, excuses] will not be permitted to those who had disbelieved, nor will they be asked to appease [Allah].
And when those who oppressed see the punishment, it will not be lightened for them, nor will they be given respite.
And when those who associated [others with Allah] would see their "associates," they would say, "Our Lord, these are our associates whom we were invoking other than You." Then their associates will throw at them the statement, "Indeed, you are indeed liars."
And they would offer to Allah that Day, the submission, and lost from them is what they were inventing.
Those who disbelieved and averted [others] from the way of Allah - We will increase them in punishment over [their] punishment about what they were increasing mischief, unbelief [in effect].
And [mention] the Day when We will resurrect in every nation a witness upon them from themselves. And We would bring in you, [O Muhammad], as a witness against these. And We have sent down upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book as clarification for every thing and as guidance and mercy and good tidings for the Muslims.
Indeed, Allah commands [Muslims] regarding the justice and the good conduct and generosity to welcoming relatives. And He prohibits any obscenity and bad conduct and transgression. He admonishes you that perhaps you may be remembering.
And fulfill regarding Allah's covenant once you covenant, [O Muslims], and do not break oaths after their assurance and surely you have made Allah, upon you, a guarantor. Indeed, Allah knows what you do.
And do not be like she who unravels her yarn, disintegrating it into pieces after she has spun it strongly. You take your oaths as deceit between your [sincerity and hypocrisy] to be one nation, more numerous than another nation. Allah only test you in this [numerical inferiority]. And He will most certainly make clear to you on the Day of Resurrection what you were in this [numerical inferiority] differing [to get along].
And if Allah had willed, He could have made you [mankind] one nation [united in religion], but He causes to stray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. But you [Muslims] will surely be questioned on what you were working [i.e., method on calling people].
And do not take your oaths as [means of] deceit between your [sincerity and hypocrisy], lest a foot [a believer] slip after it was firmly planted as well as you yourselves taste the evil with what you hindered [people] from the way of Allah, and for you would be [in such case] a great punishment.
And do not exchange Allah's covenant for a small price [number supremacy- Qur'an 16:92]. Indeed, what is with Allah is best for you, if only you were knowing.
Anything [superiority] you have is temporary, while what Allah has is ever lasting. And We will surely give those who were patient in anything they were working on their reward in the supreme.
Whoever does righteousness, whether male or female, while he is a believer - We will surely give his life a good life, and We will surely give them their reward for whatever they were working on in the best.
So when you [O Muhammad] recite the Qur'an, [first] seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed.
Indeed, there is for him no authority upon those who have believed and rely upon their Lord.
His authority is only upon those who take him as an ally and those who through him associate others with Allah.
And if We changed a verse in position of a verse and Allah is most knowing about what He sends down [a same one/their demand, Qur'an 10:15], they would say, "You [O Muhammad] are only a fabricator." No but is there [Qur'an 10:15]! Most of them do not know [Qur'an 34:38].
Say [O Muhammad], "The Pure Spirit has brought it down from your Lord in the truth to make firm those who believe and as guidance and good tidings to the Muslims [Qur'an 14:27]."
And We certainly know that they say, "Only a human being teaches the Prophet." The tongue by which they atheist hereto is foreign, but this [Qu'ran] is [in] an obvious Arabic tongue.
Indeed, those who do not believe in the verses of Allah - Allah will not guide them, and for them is a painful punishment.
Only those who do not believe in the verses of Allah are inventing the lie [Qur'an 16:103], and it is they who are the liars.
Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his belief except whoever is forced [to renounce faith] while his heart remaining assured about the faith. But whoever expounds about the disbelief, his breast, upon them is wrath of Allah, and for them is a great punishment;
That is because they preferred the worldly life upon the Hereafter and that Allah does not guide the disbelieving people.
Those are who Allah has sealed off upon their hearts and their hearing and their vision and it is they who are the heedless.
No doubt, it is they who in the Hereafter, would be the losers.
Then, indeed your Lord [O Muhammad], to those who emigrated after what they were tested [for their faith] by, then strove and were patient - indeed, your Lord, after that, is indeed Forgiving, Merciful.
On a Day when every soul will come arguing on its own, and every soul will be fully paid for what it did, and they will not be wronged.
And Allah presents an example: a city which was safe and secure, its provision coming to it in abundance from every place. Then it denied about the favours of Allah [His messengers] so Allah made it taste garment of the hunger [famine] and the fear [epidemic] about what they were fabricating [misinterpretations- Qur'an 16:63].
And certainly there already came to them a Messenger from themselves, but they belied him; so punishment overtook them while they were oppressors.
Then eat of what Allah has provided for you, lawful and good. And be grateful for the blessings of Allah, if you are truly worshiping Him alone.
He has forbidden upon you only dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and about that whatever has been dedicated to other than Allah. But whoever is forced without being disobedient or a transgressor, for sure, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
And do not say about whatever of the lie prescribes your tongues, "This is lawful and this is unlawful," so as to invent the lie against Allah. Indeed, those who invent the lie against Allah will not succeed.
[In such invention is] a brief enjoyment, and they will have a painful punishment.
And We have prohibited against those who are Jews that which We related upon you before [O Muhammad, in Qur'an 6:146]. And We did not oppress them but they were oppressing themselves.
Then, indeed your Lord, to those who have done the wrong [inventing lie] in ignorance and then repent after that and correct themselves - indeed, your Lord, thereafter, would be Forgiving, Merciful.
Indeed, Abraham was a nation in himself, devoutly obedient to Allah, a Monotheist, and he was not of the polytheists.
[He was] grateful for His favours. Allah chose him and guided him to a straight path.
And We gave him good in this world, and indeed, in the Hereafter he will be indeed of the righteous ones.
Then We revealed to you, [O Muhammad], that you should follow the creed of Abraham, Monotheist; and he was not of the polytheists.
The sabbath was only appointed against those who differed concerning Abraham. And indeed, your Lord will establish between them on the Day of Resurrection this [data] wherein they were differing.
Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue them about the way of your Lord which is the best way. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing about who has strayed from His way, and He is most knowing about the guided ones.
And if you retaliate [O believers], retaliate like of that with which you were harmed [proportionately]. But if you are patient - surely it is better for those who are patient.
And be patient, [O Muhammad], and your patience is not but with Allah. And do not grieve upon them and do not be in stress for whatever they scheme.
Indeed, Allah is with those who fear Him and those who are good-doers.
