and [all] faces will be humbled before the Living, Ever Watchful One. Those burdened with evil deeds will despair
Translation 1260
but whoever has done righteous deeds and believed need have no fear of injustice or deprivation.’
Translation 1260
We have sent the Quran down in the Arabic tongue and given all kinds of warnings in it, so that they may beware or take heed
Translation 1260
exalted be God, the one who is truly in control. [Prophet], do not rush to recite before the revelation is fully complete but say, ‘Lord, increase me in knowledge!’
Translation 1260
We also commanded Adam before you, but he forgot and We found him lacking in constancy
Translation 1260
When We said to the angels, ‘Bow down before Adam,’ they did. But Iblis refused
Translation 1260
so We said, ‘Adam, this is your enemy, yours and your wife’s: do not let him drive you out of the garden and make you miserable
Translation 1260
In the garden you will never go hungry, feel naked
Translation 1260
be thirsty, or suffer the heat of the sun.’
Translation 1260

Translation 1260
and they both ate from it. They became conscious of their nakedness and began to cover themselves with leaves from the garden. Adam disobeyed his Lord and was led astray
Translation 1260
later his Lord brought him close, accepted his repentance, and guided him
Translation 1260
God said, ‘Get out of the garden as each other’s enemy.’ Whoever follows My guidance, when it comes to you [people], will not go astray nor fall into misery
Translation 1260
but whoever turns away from it will have a life of great hardship. We shall bring him blind to the Assembly on the Day of Resurrection
Translation 1260
and he will say, ‘Lord, why did You bring me here blind? I was sighted before!’
Translation 1260
God will say, ‘This is how it is: You ignored Our revelations when they came to you, so today you will be ignored.’
Translation 1260
This is how We reward those who go too far, and who do not believe in their Lord’s revelations. The greatest and most enduring punishment is in the Hereafter
Translation 1260
Do they not draw a lesson from the many generations We destroyed before them, through whose dwelling places they now walk? There truly are signs in this for anyone with understanding
Translation 1260
If it were not for a preordained Word from your Lord [Prophet], they would already have been destroyed. Their time has been set
Translation 1260
so [Prophet] be patient with what they say- celebrate the praise of your Lord, before the rising and setting of the sun, celebrate His praise during the night, and at the beginning and end of the day, so that you may find contentment
Translation 1260
and do not gaze longingly at what We have given some of them to enjoy, the finery of this present life: We test them through this, but the provision of your Lord is better and more lasting
Translation 1260
Order your people to pray, and pray steadfastly yourself. We are not asking you to give Us provision;We provide for you, and the rewards of the Hereafter belong to the devout
Translation 1260
The disbelievers say, ‘Why does he not bring us a sign from his Lord?’ Have they not been given clear proof confirming what was in the earlier scriptures
Translation 1260
If We had destroyed them through punishment before this Messenger came, they would have said, ‘Lord, if only You had sent us a messenger, we could have followed Your revelations before we suffered humiliation and disgrace!’
Translation 1260
[Prophet], say, ‘We are all waiting, so you carry on waiting: you will come to learn who has followed the even path, and been rightly guided.’
