Rub El Hizb 70

It is He who created you all from one soul, and from it made its mate so that he might find comfort in her: when one [of them] lies with his wife and she conceives a light burden, going about freely, then grows heavy, they both pray to God, their Lord, ‘If You give us a good child we shall certainly be grateful,’

Translation 1260

and yet when He gives them a good child they ascribe some of what He has granted them to others

Translation 1260

God is far above the partners they set up alongside Him! How can they set up with Him these partners that create nothing and are themselves created

Translation 1260

that cannot help them at all, or even help themselves

Translation 1260

If you [believers] call such people to guidance, they do not fol-low you: it makes no difference whether you call them or remain silent

Translation 1260

Those you [idolaters] call upon instead of God are created beings like you. Call upon them, then, and let them respond to you if what you say is true

Translation 1260

Do they have feet to walk, hands to strike, eyes to see, or ears to hear? Say [Prophet], ‘Call on your “partners”! Scheme against me! Do not spare me

Translation 1260

My protector is God: He has revealed the Scripture, and it is He who protects the righteous

Translation 1260

but those you call on instead of Him cannot help you or even help themselves.’

Translation 1260

If you [believers] call such people to guidance, they do not hear. You [Prophet] may observe them looking at you, but they can-not see

Translation 1260

Be tolerant and command what is right: pay no attention to foolish people

Translation 1260

If Satan should prompt you to do something, seek refuge with God- He is all hearing, all knowing

Translation 1260

those who are aware of God think of Him when Satan prompts them to do something and immediately they can see [straight]

Translation 1260

the followers of devils are led relentlessly into error by them and cannot stop

Translation 1260

When you do not bring them a fresh revelation, they say, ‘But can you not just ask for one?’ Say, ‘I merely repeat what is revealed to me from my Lord: this revelation brings you insights from your Lord, and guidance and mercy for those who believe

Translation 1260

so pay attention and listen quietly when the Quran is recited, so that you may be given mercy.’

Translation 1260

[Prophet], remember your Lord inwardly, in all humility and awe, without raising your voice, in the mornings and in the evenings- do not be one of the heedless

Translation 1260

[even] those who live in the presence of your Lord are not too proud to worship Him: they glorify Him and bow down before Him

Translation 1260
