Ha Mim
Translation 1260
A revelation from the Lord of Mercy, the Giver of Mercy
Translation 1260
a Scripture whose verses are made distinct as a Quran in Arabic for people who understand
Translation 1260
giving good news and warning. Yet most of them turn away and so do not hear
Translation 1260
They say, ‘Our hearts are encased against [the faith] you call us to; our ears are heavy; there is a barrier between us and you. So you do whatever you want, and so shall we.’
Translation 1260
Say [Prophet], ‘I am only a mortal like you, [but] it has been revealed to me that your God is One. Take the straight path to Him and seek His forgiveness. Woe to the idolaters
Translation 1260
who do not pay the prescribed alms and refuse to believe in the world to come
Translation 1260
Those who believe and do good deeds will have a reward that never fails.’
Translation 1260
Say, ‘How can you disregard the One who created the earth in two Days? How can you set up other gods as His equals? He is the Lord of all the worlds!’
Translation 1260
He placed solid mountains on it, blessed it, measured out its varied provisions for all who seek them––all in four Days
Translation 1260
Then He turned to the sky, which was smoke––He said to it and the earth, ‘Come into being, willingly or not,’ and they said, ‘We come willingly’––
Translation 1260
and in two Days He formed seven heavens, and assigned an order to each. We have made the nearest one beautifully illuminated and secure. Such is the design of the Almighty, the All Knowing
Translation 1260
If they turn away, say, ‘I have warned you about a blast like the one which struck 'Ad and Thamud
Translation 1260
when their messengers came to them, from all angles, saying, “Serve no one but God,” they said, “If our Lord had wished, He would have sent down angels. We do not believe in the message with which you have been sent.”
Translation 1260
The people of 'Ad behaved arrogantly throughout the land without any right, saying, “Who could be stronger than us?” Did they not realize that God, who created them, was stronger than them?’ They continued to reject Our message
Translation 1260
so We let a roaring wind loose on them for a few disastrous days to make them taste the punishment of shame in this world; more shameful still will be the punishment of the life to come, and they will not be helped
Translation 1260
As for Thamud, We gave them guidance but they preferred blindness, so they were struck by a blast of humiliating punishment for their misdeeds
Translation 1260
We saved those who believed and were mindful of God
Translation 1260
On the Day when God’s enemies are gathered up for the Fire and driven onward
Translation 1260
their ears, eyes, and skins will, when they reach it, testify against them for their misdeeds
Translation 1260
They will say to their skins, ‘Why did you testify against us?’ and their skins will reply, ‘God, who gave speech to everything, has given us speech- it was He who created you the first time and to Him you have been returned
Translation 1260
yet you did not try to hide yourselves from your ears, eyes, and skin to prevent them from testifying against you. You thought that God did not know about much of what you were doing
Translation 1260
so it was the thoughts you entertained about your Lord that led to your ruin, and you became losers.’
Translation 1260
The Fire will still be their home, even if they resign themselves to patience, and if they pray to be allowed to make amends, they will not be given permission to do so
Translation 1260
We have appointed, for the disbelievers, companions who make their past and present seem fair and right to them, but the sentence has already been passed on them, along with generations of jinn and men before them: they were losers
