Those who went before them also schemed, but God attacked the very foundations of what they built. The roof fell down on them: punishment came on them from unimagined directions
Translation 1260
Those who went before them also schemed, but God attacked the very foundations of what they built. The roof fell down on them: punishment came on them from unimagined directions
Translation 1260
In the end, on the Day of Resurrection, He will shame them, saying, ‘Where are these “partners” of Mine on whose account you opposed [Me]?’ Those given knowledge will say, ‘Shame and misery on the disbelievers today!’
Translation 1260
Those whose lives the angels take while they are wronging themselves will show submission: ‘We were doing no evil.’ ‘Yes you were: God knows fully everything that you have done
Translation 1260
so enter the gates of Hell. There you will remain- the home of the arrogant is evil indeed.’
Translation 1260
But when the righteous are asked, ‘What has your Lord sent down?’ they will say, ‘All that is good.’ There is a reward in this present world for those who do good, but their home in the Hereafter is far better: the home of the righteous is excellent
Translation 1260
They will enter perpetual Gardens graced with flowing streams. There they will have everything they wish. This is the way God rewards the righteous
Translation 1260
those whose lives the angels take in a state of goodness. They will say to them, ‘Peace be upon you. Enter the Garden as a reward for what you have done.’
Translation 1260
Are the disbelievers waiting for the angels to come to them, or your Lord’s Judgement? Those who went before them did the same. God did not wrong them; they wronged themselves
Translation 1260
So the evil they had done hit them and they were surrounded by the very thing they had mocked
Translation 1260
Those who worshipped others alongside God say, ‘If God had willed, we would not have worshipped anything but Him, nor would our fathers. We would not have declared anything forbidden without His sanction.’ Those before them said the same. Are the messengers obliged to do anything other than deliver [their message] clearly
Translation 1260
We sent a messenger to every community, saying, ‘Worship God and shun false gods.’ Among them were some God guided; misguidance took hold of others. So travel through the earth and see what was the fate of those who denied the truth
Translation 1260
Though you [Prophet] may be eager to guide them, God does not guide those who misguide [others], nor will they have anyone to help them
Translation 1260
They have sworn by God with their strongest oaths that He will not raise the dead to life. But He will- it is His binding promise, though most people do not realize it
Translation 1260
in order to make clear for them what they have differed about and so that the disbelievers may realize that what they said was false
Translation 1260
When We will something to happen, all that We say is, ‘Be,’ and it is
Translation 1260
As for those who emi-grated in God’s cause after being wronged, We shall give them a good home in this world, but the reward of the Hereafter will be far greater, if they only knew it
Translation 1260
They are the ones who are steadfast and put their trust in their Lord
Translation 1260
[Prophet], all the messengers We sent before you were simply men to whom We had given the Revelation: you [people] can ask those who have knowledge if you do not know
Translation 1260
We sent them with clear signs and scriptures. We have sent down the message to you too [Prophet], so that you can explain to people what was sent for them, so that they may reflect
Translation 1260
Are those who plan evil so sure that God will not make the earth swallow them up, that punishment will not come on them from some unimagined direction
Translation 1260
that it will not catch them suddenly in the midst of their comings and goings- for they cannot frustrate God
Translation 1260
or that it will not catch up with them gradually? Indeed your Lord is kind and merciful
Translation 1260
Do the [disbelievers] not observe the things that God has created, casting their shadows right and left, submitting themselves to God obediently
Translation 1260
It is to God that everything in the heavens and earth submits, every beast that moves, even the angels- they are free from arrogance
Translation 1260
they fear their Lord above them, and they do as they are commanded
Translation 1260
