Everything in the heavens and earth glorifies God––He is the Almighty, the Wise
Translation 1260

Translation 1260
He is the First and the Last; the Outer and the Inner; He has knowledge of all things
Translation 1260

control of the heavens and earth belongs to Him. Everything is brought back to God

Believe in God and His Messenger, and give out of what He has made pass down to you: those of you who believe and give will have a great reward
Translation 1260
Why should you not believe in God when the Mes-senger calls you to believe in your Lord, and He has already made a pledge with you, if you have faith
Translation 1260
It is He who has sent down clear revelations to His Servant, so that He may bring you from the depths of darkness into light; God is truly kind and merciful to you
Translation 1260
Why should you not give for God’s cause when God alone will inherit what is in the heavens and earth? Those who gave and fought before the triumph are not like others: they are greater in rank than those who gave and fought afterwards. But God has promised a good reward to all of them: God is fully aware of all that you do
Translation 1260
Who will make God a good loan? He will double it for him and reward him generously
Translation 1260
On the Day when you [Prophet] see the believers, both men and women, with their light streaming out ahead of them and to their right, [they will be told], ‘The good news for you today is that there are Gardens graced with flowing streams where you will stay: that is truly the supreme triumph!’
Translation 1260
On the same Day, the hypocrites, both men and women, will say to the believers, ‘Wait for us! Let us have some of your light!’ They will be told, ‘Go back and look for a light.’ A wall with a door will be erected between them: inside it lies mercy, outside lies torment
Translation 1260
The hypocrites will call out to the believers, ‘Were we not with you?’ They will reply, ‘Yes. But you allowed yourselves to be tempted, you were hesitant, doubtful, deceived by false hopes until God’s command came- the Deceiver tricked you about God

Remember that God revives the earth after it dies; We have made Our revelation clear to you so that you may use your reason

Charitable men and women who make a good loan to God will have it doubled and have a generous reward
Translation 1260
Those who believe in God and His messengers are the truthful ones who will bear witness before their Lord: they will have their reward and their light. But those who disbelieve and deny Our revelations are the inhabitants of Hell
Translation 1260
Bear in mind that the present life is just a game, a diversion, an attraction, a cause of boasting among you, of rivalry in wealth and children. It is like plants that spring up after the rain: their growth at first delights the sowers, but then you see them wither away, turn yellow, and become stubble. There is terrible punishment in the next life as well as forgiveness and approval from God; the life of this world is only an illusory pleasure
Translation 1260
So race for your Lord’s forgiveness and a Garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for those who believe in God and His messengers: that is God’s bounty, which He bestows on whoever He pleases. God’s bounty is infinite
Translation 1260
No misfortune can happen, either in the earth or in yourselves, that was not set down in writing before We brought it into being- that is easy for God
Translation 1260
so you need not grieve for what you miss or gloat over what you gain
Translation 1260
God does not love the conceited, the boastful, those who are miserly, and who tell other people to be miserly. If anyone turns away, remember that God is self-sufficient and worthy of praise
Translation 1260
We sent Our messengers with clear signs, the Scripture and the Balance, so that people could uphold justice: We also sent iron, with its mighty strength and many uses for mankind, so that God could mark out those who would help Him and His messengers though they cannot see Him. Truly God is powerful, almighty
