The prophet who invited the Israelites, Christians and polytheists to the religion of Prophet Abraham: Prophet Muhammad. The Qur'an, the book confirming and confirming the Torah and the Gospel before it.
The truth we were not told: The whole video consists of only verses of the Qur'an, with the verse name and number written on each line. It does not contain any opinions, explanations or comments. Arranged in order of historical experience.
2. This is the Book in which there is no doubt, a guide for the righteous.
The Cow
3. Those who believe in the unseen, and perform the prayers, and give from what We have provided for them.
The Cow
4. And those who believe in what was revealed to you, and in what was revealed before you, and are certain of the Hereafter.
The Cow
5. These are upon guidance from their Lord. These are the successful.
The Cow
6. As for those who disbelieve—it is the same for them, whether you have warned them, or have not warned them—they do not believe.
The Cow
7. God has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing, and over their vision is a veil. They will have a severe torment.
The Cow
8. Among the people are those who say, “We believe in God and in the Last Day,” but they are not believers.
The Cow
9. They seek to deceive God and those who believe, but they deceive none but themselves, though they are not aware.
The Cow
10. In their hearts is sickness, and God has increased their sickness. They will have a painful punishment because of their denial.
The Cow
11. And when it is said to them, “Do not make trouble on earth,” they say, “We are only reformers.”
The Cow
12. In fact, they are the troublemakers, but they are not aware.
The Cow
13. And when it is said to them, “Believe as the people have believed,” they say, “Shall we believe as the fools have believed?” In fact, it is they who are the fools, but they do not know.
The Cow
14. And when they come across those who believe, they say, “We believe”; but when they are alone with their devils, they say, “We are with you; we were only ridiculing.”
The Cow
15. It is God who ridicules them, and leaves them bewildered in their transgression.
The Cow
16. Those are they who have bartered error for guidance; but their trade does not profit them, and they are not guided.
The Cow
17. Their likeness is that of a person who kindled a fire; when it illuminated all around him, God took away their light, and left them in darkness, unable to see.
The Cow
18. Deaf, dumb, blind. They will not return.
The Cow
19. Or like a cloudburst from the sky, in which is darkness, and thunder, and lightning. They press their fingers into their ears from the thunderbolts, in fear of death. But God surrounds the disbelievers.
The Cow
20. The lightning almost snatches their sight away. Whenever it illuminates for them, they walk in it; but when it grows dark over them, they stand still. Had God willed, He could have taken away their hearing and their sight. God is capable of everything.
The Cow
21. O people! Worship your Lord who created you and those before you, that you may attain piety.
The Cow
22. He who made the earth a habitat for you, and the sky a structure, and sends water down from the sky, and brings out fruits thereby, as a sustenance for you. Therefore, do not assign rivals to God while you know.
The Cow
23. And if you are in doubt about what We have revealed to Our servant, then produce a chapter like these, and call your witnesses apart from God, if you are truthful.
The Cow
24. But if you do not—and you will not—then beware the Fire whose fuel is people and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.
The Cow
25. And give good news to those who believe and do righteous deeds; that they will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with fruit therefrom as sustenance, they will say, “This is what we were provided with before,” and they will be given the like of it. And they will have pure spouses therein, and they will abide therein forever.
The Cow
26. God does not shy away from making an example of a gnat, or something above it. As for those who believe, they know that it is the Truth from their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, “What did God intend by this example?” He leads astray many thereby, and He guides many thereby; but He misleads thereby only the evildoers.
The Cow
27. Those who violate God’s covenant after its confirmation, and sever what God has commanded to be joined, and commit evil on earth. These are the losers.
The Cow
28. How can you deny God, when you were dead and He gave you life, then He will put you to death, then He will bring you to life, then to Him you will be returned?
The Cow
29. It is He who created for you everything on earth, then turned to the heaven, and made them seven heavens. And He is aware of all things.
The Cow
30. When your Lord said to the angels, “I am placing a successor on earth.” They said, “Will You place in it someone who will cause corruption in it and shed blood, while we declare Your praises and sanctify You?” He said, “I know what you do not know.”
The Cow
31. And He taught Adam the names, all of them; then he presented them to the angels, and said, “Tell Me the names of these, if you are sincere.”
The Cow
32. They said, “Glory be to You! We have no knowledge except what You have taught us. It is you who are the Knowledgeable, the Wise.”
The Cow
33. He said, “O Adam, tell them their names.” And when he told them their names, He said, “Did I not tell you that I know the secrets of the heavens and the earth, and that I know what you reveal and what you conceal?”
The Cow
34. And We said to the angels, “Bow down to Adam.” They bowed down, except for Satan. He refused, was arrogant, and was one of the disbelievers.
The Cow
35. We said, “O Adam, inhabit the Garden, you and your spouse, and eat from it freely as you please, but do not approach this tree, lest you become wrongdoers.”
The Cow
36. But Satan caused them to slip from it, and caused them to depart the state they were in. We said, “Go down, some of you enemies of one another. And you will have residence on earth, and enjoyment for a while.”
The Cow
37. Then Adam received words from his Lord, so He relented towards him. He is the Relenting, the Merciful.
The Cow
38. We said, “Go down from it, all of you. Yet whenever guidance comes to you from Me, then whoever follows My guidance—they have nothing to fear, nor shall they grieve.
The Cow
39. But as for those who disbelieve and reject Our signs—these are the inmates of the Fire—wherein they will remain forever.”
The Cow
The Cow
164. In the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of night and day; in the ships that sail the oceans for the benefit of mankind; in the water that God sends down from the sky, and revives the earth with it after it had died, and scatters in it all kinds of creatures; in the changing of the winds, and the clouds disposed between the sky and the earth; are signs for people who understand.
The Cow
165. Yet among the people are those who take other than God as equals to Him. They love them as the love of God. But those who believe have greater love for God. If only the wrongdoers would realize, when they see the torment; that all power is God’s, and that God is severe in punishment.
The Cow
166. Those who were followed will then disown those who followed them, and they will see the retribution, and ties between them will be severed.
The Cow
167. Those who followed will say, “If only we can have another chance, we will disown them, as they disowned us.” Thus God will show them their deeds, as regrets to them, and they will not come out of the Fire.
The Cow
168. O people! Eat of what is lawful and good on earth, and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. He is to you an open enemy.
The Cow
169. He commands you to do evil and vice, and to say about God what you do not know.
The Cow
The Cow
255. God! There is no god except He, the Living, the Everlasting. Neither slumber overtakes Him, nor sleep. To Him belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His permission? He knows what is before them, and what is behind them; and they cannot grasp any of His knowledge, except as He wills. His Throne extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation does not burden Him. He is the Most High, the Great.
The Cow
256. There shall be no compulsion in religion; the right way has become distinct from the wrong way. Whoever renounces evil and believes in God has grasped the most trustworthy handle; which does not break. God is Hearing and Knowing.
The Cow
257. God is the Lord of those who believe; He brings them out of darkness and into light. As for those who disbelieve, their lords are the evil ones; they bring them out of light and into darkness—these are the inmates of the Fire, in which they will abide forever.
The Cow
The Cow
284. To God belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. Whether you reveal what is within your selves, or conceal it, God will call you to account for it. He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills. God is Able to do all things.
The Cow
285. The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, as did the believers. They all have believed in God, and His angels, and His scriptures, and His messengers: “We make no distinction between any of His messengers.” And they say, “We hear and we obey. Your forgiveness, our Lord. To you is the destiny.”
The Cow
286. God does not burden any soul beyond its capacity. To its credit is what it earns, and against it is what it commits. “Our Lord, do not condemn us if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord, do not burden us as You have burdened those before us. Our Lord, do not burden us with more than we have strength to bear; and pardon us, and forgive us, and have mercy on us. You are our Lord and Master, so help us against the disbelieving people.”
The Family of Amran
The Family of Amran
1. Alif, Lam, Meem.
The Family of Amran
2. God, there is no god but He, the Living, the Eternal.
The Family of Amran
3. He sent down to you the Book with the Truth, confirming what came before it; and He sent down the Torah and the Gospel.
The Family of Amran
4. Aforetime, as guidance for mankind; and He sent down the Criterion. Those who have rejected God’s signs will have a severe punishment. God is Mighty, Able to take revenge.
The Family of Amran
5. Nothing is hidden from God, on earth or in the heaven.
The Family of Amran
6. It is He who forms you in the wombs as He wills. There is no god except He, the Almighty, the Wise.
The Family of Amran
7. It is He who revealed to you the Book. Some of its verses are definitive; they are the foundation of the Book, and others are unspecific. As for those in whose hearts is deviation, they follow the unspecific part, seeking dissent, and seeking to derive an interpretation. But none knows its interpretation except God and those firmly rooted in knowledge say, “We believe in it; all is from our Lord.” But none recollects except those with understanding.
The Family of Amran
8. “Our Lord, do not cause our hearts to swerve after You have guided us, and bestow on us mercy from Your presence; You are the Giver.”
The Family of Amran
9. “Our Lord, You will gather the people for a Day in which there is no doubt.” God will never break His promise.
The Family of Amran
10. As for those who disbelieve, neither their wealth nor their children will avail them anything against God. These will be fuel for the Fire.
The Family of Amran
11. Like the behavior of Pharaoh’s people and those before them. They rejected Our signs, so God seized them for their sins. God is Strict in retribution.
The Family of Amran
12. Say to those who disbelieve, “You will be defeated, and rounded up into Hell—an awful resting-place.”
The Family of Amran
The Family of Amran
133. And race towards forgiveness from your Lord, and a Garden as wide as the heavens and the earth, prepared for the righteous.
The Family of Amran
134. Those who give in prosperity and adversity, and those who restrain anger, and those who forgive people. God loves the doers of good.
The Family of Amran
135. And those who, when they commit an indecency or wrong themselves, remember God and ask forgiveness for their sins—and who forgives sins except God? And they do not persist in their wrongdoing while they know.
The Women
1. O people! Fear your Lord, who created you from a single soul, and created from it its mate, and propagated from them many men and women. And revere God whom you ask about, and the parents. Surely, God is Watchful over you.
The Women
The Women
97. While the angels are removing the souls of those who have wronged themselves, they will say, “What was the matter with you?” They will say, “We were oppressed in the land.” They will say, “Was God’s earth not vast enough for you to emigrate in it?” These—their refuge is Hell. What a wretched retreat!
The Women
The Women
116. God will not forgive that partners be associated with Him; but will forgive anything less than that, to whomever He wills. Anyone who ascribes partners to God has strayed into far error.
The Women
117. They invoke in His stead only females. In fact, they invoke none but a rebellious devil.
The Women
118. God has cursed him. And he said, “I will take to myself my due share of Your servants.”
The Women
119. “And I will mislead them, and I will entice them, and I will prompt them to slit the ears of cattle, and I will prompt them to alter the creation of God.” Whoever takes Satan as a lord, instead of God, has surely suffered a profound loss.
The Women
120. He promises them, and he raises their expectations, but Satan promises them nothing but delusions.
The Women
121. These—their place is Hell, and they will find no escape from it.
The Women
122. But as for those who believe and do righteous deeds, We will admit them into gardens beneath which rivers flow, where they will abide forever. The promise of God is true—and who is more truthful in speech than God?
The Women
123. It is not in accordance with your wishes, nor in accordance with the wishes of the People of the Scripture. Whoever works evil will pay for it, and will not find for himself, besides God, any protector or savior.
The Women
124. But whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, and is a believer—those will enter Paradise, and will not be wronged a whit.
The Women
125. And who is better in religion than he who submits himself wholly to God, and is a doer of good, and follows the faith of Abraham the Monotheist? God has chosen Abraham for a friend.
The Women
126. To God belongs what is in the heavens and what is on earth, and God encompasses everything.
The Cattle
1. Praise be to God, Who created the heavens and the earth, and made the darkness and the light. Yet those who disbelieve ascribe equals to their Lord.
The Cattle
2. It is He Who created you from clay, then decided a term—a term determined by Him. Yet you doubt.
The Cattle
3. He is God in the heavens and the earth. He knows what you keep secret and what you make public; and He knows what you earn.
The Cattle
4. Not one of their Lord’s signs comes to them, but they turn away from it.
The Cattle
5. They denied the truth when it has come to them; but soon will reach them the news of what they used to ridicule.
The Cattle
6. Have they not considered how many generations We destroyed before them? We had established them on earth more firmly than We established you, and We sent the clouds pouring down abundant rain on them, and We made rivers flow beneath them. But We destroyed them for their sins, and established other civilizations after them.
The Cattle
7. Had We sent down upon you a book on paper, and they had touched it with their hands, those who disbelieve would have said, “This is nothing but plain magic.”
The Cattle
8. And they say, “Why was an angel not sent down to him.” Had We sent down an angel, the matter would have been settled, and they would not have been reprieved.
The Cattle
9. Had We made him an angel, We would have made him a man, and confused them when they are already confused.
The Elevated Places
2. A Scripture was revealed to you, so let there be no anxiety in your heart because of it. You are to warn with it—and a reminder for the believers.
The Elevated Places
3. Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord, and do not follow other masters beside Him. Little you recollect.
The Elevated Places
4. How many a town have We destroyed? Our might came upon them by night, or while they were napping.
The Elevated Places
5. When Our might came upon them, their only cry was, “We were indeed wrongdoers.”
The Elevated Places
6. We will question those to whom messengers were sent, and We will question the messengers.
The Elevated Places
7. We will narrate to them with knowledge, for We were never absent.
The Elevated Places
8. The scales on that Day will be just. Those whose weights are heavy—it is they who are the successful.
The Elevated Places
9. But as for those whose weights are light—it is they who have lost their souls, because they used to mistreat Our revelations.
The Elevated Places
10. We have established you firmly on earth, and made for you in it livelihood—but rarely do you give thanks.
The Elevated Places
11. We created you, then We shaped you, then We said to the angels, “Bow down before Adam;” so they bowed down, except for Satan; he was not of those who bowed down.
The Elevated Places
12. He said, “What prevented you from bowing down when I have commanded you?” He said, “I am better than he; You created me from fire, and You created him from mud.”
The Elevated Places
13. He said, “Get down from it! It is not for you to act arrogantly in it. Get out! You are one of the lowly!”
The Elevated Places
14. He said, “Give me respite, until the Day they are resurrected.”
The Elevated Places
15. He said, “You are of those given respite.”
The Elevated Places
16. He said, “Because you have lured me, I will waylay them on Your straight path.
The Elevated Places
17. Then I will come at them from before them, and from behind them, and from their right, and from their left; and you will not find most of them appreciative.”
The Elevated Places
18. He said, “Get out of it, despised and vanquished. Whoever among them follows you—I will fill up Hell with you all.
The Elevated Places
19. And you, Adam, inhabit the Garden, you and your wife, and eat whatever you wish; but do not approach this tree, lest you become sinners.”
The Elevated Places
20. But Satan whispered to them, to reveal to them their nakedness, which was invisible to them. He said, “Your Lord has only forbidden you this tree, lest you become angels, or become immortals.”
The Elevated Places
21. And he swore to them, “I am a sincere advisor to you.”
The Elevated Places
22. So he lured them with deceit. And when they tasted the tree, their nakedness became evident to them, and they began covering themselves with the leaves of the Garden. And their Lord called out to them, “Did I not forbid you from this tree, and say to you that Satan is a sworn enemy to you?”
The Elevated Places
23. They said, “Our Lord, we have done wrong to ourselves. Unless You forgive us, and have mercy on us, we will be among the losers.”
The Elevated Places
24. He said, “Fall, some of you enemies to one another. On earth you will have residence and livelihood for a while.”
The Elevated Places
25. He said, “In it you will live, and in it you will die, and from it you will be brought out.”
The Elevated Places
26. O children of Adam! We have provided you with clothing to cover your bodies, and for luxury. But the clothing of piety—that is best. These are some of God’s revelations, so that they may take heed.
The Elevated Places
27. O Children of Adam! Do not let Satan seduce you, as he drove your parents out of the Garden, stripping them of their garments, to show them their nakedness. He sees you, him and his clan, from where you cannot see them. We have made the devils friends of those who do not believe.
The Elevated Places
28. And when they commit an indecency, they say, “We found our parents doing this, and God has commanded us to do it.” Say, “God does not command indecencies. Are you attributing to God what you do not know?”
The Elevated Places
29. Say, “My Lord commands justice, and to stand devoted at every place of worship. So call upon Him, and dedicate your faith to Him alone. Just as He originated you, so you will return.”
The Elevated Places
30. Some He has guided, and some have deserved misguidance. They have adopted the devils for patrons rather than God, and they assume that they are guided.
The Elevated Places
31. O Children of Adam! Dress properly at every place of worship, and eat and drink, but do not be excessive. He does not love the excessive.
The Elevated Places
32. Say, “Who forbade God’s finery which He has produced for His servants, and the delights of livelihood?” Say, “They are for those who believe, in this present world, but exclusively theirs on the Day of Resurrection.” We thus detail the revelations for people who know.
The Elevated Places
33. Say, “My Lord has forbidden immoralities—both open and secret—and sin, and unjustified aggression, and that you associate with God anything for which He revealed no sanction, and that you say about God what you do not know.”
The Elevated Places
34. For every nation is an appointed time. When their time has come, they cannot delay it by one hour, nor can they advance it.
The Elevated Places
35. O Children of Adam! When messengers from among you come to you, relating to you My revelations—whoever practices piety and reforms—upon them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
The Elevated Places
36. But as for those who reject Our revelations, and are too proud to accept them—these are the inmates of the Fire, where they will remain forever.
The Elevated Places
37. Who does greater wrong than he who invents lies about God, or denies His revelations? These—their share of the decree will reach them. Until, when Our envoys come to them, to take their souls away, they will say, “Where are they whom you used to pray to besides God?” They will say, “They have abandoned us,” and they will testify against themselves that they were faithless.
The Elevated Places
38. He will say, “Join the crowds of jinn and humans who have gone into the Fire before you.” Every time a crowd enters, it will curse its sister-crowd. Until, when they are all in it, the last of them will say to the first of them, “Our Lord, these are the ones who misled us, so inflict on them a double punishment in the Fire.” He will say, “Each will have a double, but you do not know.”
The Elevated Places
39. The first of them will say to the last of them, “You have no advantage over us, so taste the torment for what you used to earn.”
The Elevated Places
40. Those who reject Our revelations and are too arrogant to uphold them—the doors of Heaven will not be opened for them, nor will they enter Paradise, until the camel passes through the eye of the needle. Thus We repay the guilty.
The Elevated Places
41. For them is a couch of hell, and above them are sheets of fire. Thus We repay the wrongdoers.
The Elevated Places
42. As for those who believe and do righteous works—We never burden any soul beyond its capacity—these are the inhabitants of the Garden; abiding therein eternally.
The Elevated Places
43. We will remove whatever rancor is in their hearts. Rivers will flow beneath them. And they will say, “Praise be to God, who has guided us to this. Had God not guided us, we would never be guided. The messengers of our Lord did come with the truth.” And it will be proclaimed to them, “This is the Garden you are made to inherit, on account of what you used to do.”
The Elevated Places
44. And the inhabitants of the Garden will call out to the inmates of the Fire, “We found what our Lord promised us to be true; did you find what your Lord promised you to be true?” They will say, “Yes.” Thereupon a caller will announce in their midst, “The curse of God is upon the wrongdoers.”
The Elevated Places
45. “Those who hinder from the path of God, and seek to distort it, and who deny the Hereafter.”
The Elevated Places
46. And between them is a partition, and on the Elevations are men who recognize everyone by their features. They will call to the inhabitants of the Garden, “Peace be upon you.” They have not entered it, but they are hoping.
The Elevated Places
47. And when their eyes are directed towards the inmates of the Fire, they will say, “Our Lord, do not place us among the wrongdoing people.”
The Elevated Places
48. And the dwellers of the Elevations will call to men they recognize by their features, saying, “Your hoardings did not avail you, nor did your arrogance.”
The Elevated Places
49. “Are these the ones you swore God will not touch with mercy?” “Enter the Garden; you have nothing to fear, and you will not grieve.”
The Elevated Places
50. The inmates of the Fire will call on the inhabitants of the Garden, “Pour some water over us, or some of what God has provided for you.” They will say, “God has forbidden them for the disbelievers.”
The Elevated Places
51. Those who took their religion lightly, and in jest, and whom the worldly life deceived. Today We will ignore them, as they ignored the meeting on this Day of theirs, and they used to deny Our revelations.
The Elevated Places
52. We have given them a Scripture, which We detailed with knowledge—guidance and mercy for people who believe.
The Elevated Places
53. Are they waiting for anything but its fulfillment? The Day its fulfillment comes true, those who disregarded it before will say, “The messengers of our Lord did come with the truth. Have we any intercessors to intercede for us? Or, could we be sent back, to behave differently from the way we behaved before?” They ruined their souls, and what they used to invent has failed them.
The Elevated Places
54. Your Lord is God; He who created the heavens and the earth in six days, then established Himself on the Throne. The night overtakes the day, as it pursues it persistently; and the sun, and the moon, and the stars are subservient by His command. His is the creation, and His is the command. Blessed is God, Lord of all beings.
The Elevated Places
55. Call upon your Lord humbly and privately. He does not love the aggressors.
The Elevated Places
56. And do not corrupt on earth after its reformation, and pray to Him with fear and hope. God’s mercy is close to the doers of good.
The Elevated Places
57. It is He who sends the wind ahead of His mercy. Then, when they have gathered up heavy clouds, We drive them to a dead land, where We make water come down, and with it We bring out all kinds of fruits. Thus We bring out the dead—perhaps you will reflect.
The Elevated Places
58. As for the good land, it yields its produce by the leave of its Lord. But as for the bad, it produces nothing but hardship and misery. Thus We explain the revelations in various ways for people who are thankful.
The Elevated Places
The Elevated Places
180. To God belong the Most Beautiful Names, so call Him by them, and disregard those who blaspheme His names. They will be repaid for what they used to do.
The Elevated Places
The Elevated Places
189. It is He who created you from a single person, and made from it its mate, that he may find comfort with her. Then, when he has covered her, she conceives a light load, and she carries it around. But when she has grown heavy, they pray to God their Lord, “if You give us a good child, we will be among the thankful.”
The Elevated Places
190. But when He has given them a good child, they attribute partners to Him in what He has given them. God is exalted above what they associate.
The Elevated Places
191. Do they idolize those who create nothing, and are themselves created?
The Elevated Places
192. And can neither help them, nor help their own selves?
The Elevated Places
193. And if you invite them to guidance, they will not follow you. It is the same for you, whether you invite them, or remain silent.
The Elevated Places
194. Those you call upon besides God are servants like you. So call upon them, and let them answer you, if you are truthful.
The Elevated Places
195. Do they have feet with which they walk? Or do they have hands with which they strike? Or do they have eyes with which they see? Or do they have ears with which they hear? Say, “Call upon your partners, then plot against me, and do not wait.”
The Elevated Places
196. “My Master is God, He Who sent down the Book, and He takes care of the righteous.”
The Elevated Places
197. Those you call upon besides Him cannot help you, nor can they help themselves.
The Elevated Places
198. And if you call them to guidance, they will not hear. And you see them looking at you, yet they do not see.
The Elevated Places
199. Be tolerant, and command decency, and avoid the ignorant.
The Elevated Places
200. And when a suggestion from Satan assails you, take refuge with God. He is Hearing and Knowing.
The Elevated Places
201. Those who are righteous—when an impulse from Satan strikes them, they remind themselves, and immediately see clearly.
The Elevated Places
202. But their brethren lead them relentlessly into error, and they never stop short.
The Elevated Places
203. If you do not produce a miracle for them, they say, “Why don’t you improvise one.” Say, “I only follow what is inspired to me from my Lord.” These are insights from your Lord, and guidance, and mercy, for a people who believe.
The Elevated Places
204. When the Quran is recited, listen to it, and pay attention, so that you may experience mercy.
The Elevated Places
205. And remember your Lord within yourself, humbly and fearfully, and quietly, in the morning and the evening, and do not be of the neglectful.
The Elevated Places
206. Those who are in the presence of your Lord are not too proud to worship Him. They recite His praises, and to Him they bow down.
Jonah
1. Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the Verses of the Wise Book.
Jonah
2. Is it a wonder to the people that We inspired a man from among them: “Warn mankind, and give good news to those who believe that they are on a sound footing with their Lord”? The disbelievers said, “This is a manifest sorcerer.”
Jonah
3. Your Lord is God, who created the heavens and the earth in six days, then settled over the Throne, governing all things. There is no intercessor except after His permission. Such is God, your Lord—so serve Him. Will you not reflect?
Jonah
4. To Him is your return, altogether. The promise of God is true. He originates creation, and then He repeats it, to reward those who believe and do good deeds with equity. As for those who disbelieve, for them is a drink of boiling water, and agonizing torment, on account of their disbelief.
Jonah
5. It is He who made the sun radiant, and the moon a light, and determined phases for it—that you may know the number of years and the calculation. God did not create all this except with truth. He details the revelations for a people who know.
Jonah
6. In the alternation of night and day, and in what God created in the heavens and the earth, are signs for people who are aware.
Jonah
7. Those who do not hope to meet Us, and are content with the worldly life, and are at ease in it, and those who pay no heed to Our signs.
Jonah
8. These—their dwelling is the Fire—on account of what they used to do.
Jonah
9. As for those who believe and do good deeds, their Lord guides them in their faith. Rivers will flow beneath them in the Gardens of Bliss.
Jonah
10. Their call therein is, “Glory be to You, our God.” And their greeting therein is, “Peace.” And the last of their call is, “Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds.”
Jonah
11. If God were to accelerate the ill for the people, as they wish to accelerate the good, their term would have been fulfilled. But We leave those who do not expect Our encounter to blunder in their excesses.
Jonah
12. Whenever adversity touches the human being, he prays to Us—reclining on his side, or sitting, or standing. But when We have relieved his adversity from him, he goes away, as though he had never called on Us for trouble that had afflicted him. Thus the deeds of the transgressors appear good to them.
Jonah
13. We destroyed generations before you when they did wrong. Their messengers came to them with clear signs, but they would not believe. Thus We requite the sinful people.
Jonah
14. Then We made you successors on earth after them, to see how you would behave.
Jonah
15. And when Our clear revelations are recited to them, those who do not hope to meet Us say, “Bring a Quran other than this, or change it.” Say, “It is not for me to change it of my own accord. I only follow what is revealed to me. I fear, if I disobeyed my Lord, the torment of a terrible Day.”
Jonah
16. Say, “Had God willed, I would not have recited it to you, and He would not have made it known to you. I have lived among you for a lifetime before it. Do you not understand?”
Jonah
17. Who does greater wrong than someone who fabricates lies about God, or denies His revelations? The guilty will never prosper.
Jonah
18. And they worship, besides God, what neither harms them nor benefits them. And they say, “These are our intercessors with God.” Say, “Are you informing God about what He does not know in the heavens or on earth?” Glorified be He, High above the associations they make.
Jonah
19. Mankind was a single community; then they differed. Were it not for a prior decree from your Lord, the matters over which they had disputed would have been settled.
Jonah
20. And they say, “If only a miracle was sent down to him from his Lord.” Say, “The realm of the unseen belongs to God; so wait, I am waiting with you.”
Jonah
21. When We make the people taste mercy after some adversity has touched them, they begin to scheme against Our revelations. Say, “God is swifter in scheming.” Our envoys are writing down what you scheme.
Jonah
22. It is He who transports you across land and sea. Until, when you are on ships, sailing in a favorable wind, and rejoicing in it, a raging wind arrives. The waves surge over them from every side, and they realize that they are besieged. Thereupon they pray to God, professing sincere devotion to Him: “If You save us from this, we will be among the appreciative.”
Jonah
23. But then, when He has saved them, they commit violations on earth, and oppose justice. O people! Your violations are against your own souls. It is the enjoyment of the present life. Then to Us is your return, and We will inform you of what you used to do.
Jonah
24. The likeness of the present life is this: water that We send down from the sky is absorbed by the plants of the earth, from which the people and the animals eat. Until, when the earth puts on its fine appearance, and is beautified, and its inhabitants think that they have mastered it, Our command descends upon it by night or by day, and We turn it into stubble, as if it had not flourished the day before. We thus clarify the revelations for people who reflect.
Jonah
25. God invites to the Home of Peace, and guides whomever He wills to a straight path.
Jonah
26. For those who have done good is goodness, and more. Neither gloom nor shame will come over their faces. These are the inhabitants of Paradise, abiding therein forever.
Jonah
27. As for those who have earned evil deeds: a reward of similar evil, and shame will cover them. They will have no defense against God—as if their faces are covered with dark patches of night. These are the inmates of the Fire, abiding therein forever.
Jonah
28. On the Day when We will gather them altogether, then say to those who ascribed partners, “To your place, you and your partners.” Then We will separate between them, and their partners will say, “It was not us you were worshiping.”
Jonah
29. “God is sufficient witness between us and you. We were unaware of your worshiping us.”
Jonah
30. There, every soul will experience what it had done previously; and they will be returned to God, their True Master; and what they used to invent will fail them.
Jonah
31. Say, “Who provides for you from the heaven and the earth? And who controls the hearing and the sight? And who produces the living from the dead, and produces the dead from the living? And who governs the Order?” They will say, “God.” Say, “Will you not be careful?”
Jonah
32. Such is God, your Lord—the True. What is there, beyond the truth, except falsehood? How are you turned away?
Jonah
33. Thus your Lord’s Word proved true against those who disobeyed, for they do not believe.
Jonah
34. Say, “Can any of your partners initiate creation, and then repeat it?” Say, “God initiates creation, and then repeats it. How are you so deluded?”
Jonah
35. Say, “Can any of your partners guide to the truth?” Say, “God guides to the truth. Is He who guides to the truth more worthy of being followed, or he who does not guide, unless he himself is guided? What is the matter with you? How do you judge?”
Jonah
36. Most of them follow nothing but assumptions; and assumptions avail nothing against the truth. God is fully aware of what they do.
Jonah
Jonah
55. Assuredly, to God belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. Assuredly, the promise of God is true. But most of them do not know.
Jonah
56. He gives life and causes death, and to Him you will be returned.
Hud
123. To God belongs the future of the heavens and the earth, and to Him all authority goes back. So worship Him, and rely on Him. Your Lord is never unaware of what you do.
The Thunder
1. Alif, Lam, Meem, Ra. These are the signs of the Scripture. What is revealed to you from your Lord is the truth, but most people do not believe.
The Thunder
2. God is He who raised the heavens without pillars that you can see, and then settled on the Throne. And He regulated the sun and the moon, each running for a specified period. He manages all affairs, and He explains the signs, that you may be certain of the meeting with your Lord.
The Thunder
3. And it is He who spread the earth, and placed in it mountains and rivers. And He placed in it two kinds of every fruit. He causes the night to overlap the day. In that are signs for people who reflect.
The Thunder
4. On earth are adjacent terrains, and gardens of vines, and crops, and date-palms, from the same root or from distinct roots, irrigated with the same water. We make some taste better than others. In that are proofs for people who reason.
The Thunder
5. Should you wonder—the real wonder is their saying: “When we have become dust, will we be in a new creation?” Those are they who defied their Lord. Those are they who will have yokes around their necks. Those are the inhabitants of the Fire, where they will remain forever.
The Thunder
6. And they urge you to hasten evil before good, though examples have passed away before them. Your Lord is full of forgiveness towards the people for their wrongdoings, yet your Lord is severe in retribution.
The Thunder
7. Those who disbelieve say, “Why was a miracle not sent down to him from his Lord?” You are only a warner, and to every community is a guide.
The Thunder
8. God knows what every female bears, and every increase and decrease of the wombs. With Him, everything is by measure.
The Thunder
9. The Knower of the Invisible and the Visible; the Grand, the Supreme.
The Thunder
10. It is the same; whether one of you conceals his speech, or declares it; whether he goes into hiding by night, or goes out by day.
The Thunder
11. He has a succession; before him and behind him, protecting him by God’s command. God does not change the condition of a people until they change what is within themselves. And if God wills any hardship for a people, there is no turning it back; and apart from Him they have no protector.
The Thunder
12. It is He who shows you the lightening, causing fear and hope. And He produces the heavy clouds.
The Thunder
13. The thunder praises His glory, and so do the angels, in awe of Him. And He sends the thunderbolts, striking with them whomever He wills. Yet they argue about God, while He is Tremendous in might.
The Thunder
17. He sends down water from the sky, and riverbeds flow according to their capacity. The current carries swelling froth. And from what they heat in fire of ornaments or utensils comes a similar froth. Thus God exemplifies truth and falsehood. As for the froth, it is swept away, but what benefits the people remains in the ground. Thus God presents the analogies.
Abraham
32. God is He Who created the heavens and the earth, and sends down water from the sky, and with it produces fruits for your sustenance. And He committed the ships to your service, sailing through the sea by His command, and He committed the rivers to your service.
Abraham
33. And He committed the sun and the moon to your service, both continuously pursuing their courses, and He committed the night and the day to your service.
Abraham
34. And He has given you something of all what you asked. And if you were to count God’s blessings, you would not be able to enumerate them. The human being is unfair and ungrateful.
Abraham
Abraham
48. On the Day when the earth is changed into another earth, and the heavens, and they will emerge before God, the One, the Irresistible.
Abraham
49. On that Day, you will see the sinners bound together in chains.
Abraham
50. Their garments made of tar, and the Fire covering their faces.
Abraham
51. That God may repay each soul according to what it has earned. God is Quick in reckoning.
The Rock
14. Even if We opened for them a gateway into the sky, and they began to ascend through it.
The Rock
15. They would still say, “Our eyes are hallucinating; in fact, we are people bewitched.”
The Rock
16. We placed constellations in the sky, and made them beautiful to the beholders.
The Rock
17. And We guarded them from every outcast devil.
The Rock
18. Except one who steals a hearing, and is followed by a visible projectile.
The Rock
19. We spread the earth, and placed stabilizers in it, and in it We grew all things in proper measure.
The Rock
20. And in it We created livelihoods for you, and for those for whom you are not the providers.
The Rock
21. There is not a thing but with Us are its stores, and We send it down only in precise measure.
The Rock
22. We send the fertilizing winds; and send down water from the sky, and give it to you to drink, and you are not the ones who store it.
The Rock
23. It is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritors.
The Rock
24. And We know those of you who go forward, and We know those who lag behind.
The Rock
25. It is your Lord who will gather them together. He is the Wise, the Knowing.
The Rock
26. We created the human being from clay, from molded mud.
The Rock
27. And the jinn We created before, from piercing fire.
The Rock
28. Your Lord said to the angels, “I am creating a human being from clay, from molded mud.”
The Rock
29. “When I have formed him, and breathed into him of My spirit, fall down prostrating before him.”
The Rock
30. So the angels prostrated themselves, all together.
The Rock
31. Except for Satan. He refused to be among those who prostrated themselves.
The Rock
32. He said, “O Satan, what kept you from being among those who prostrated themselves?”
The Rock
33. He said, “I am not about to prostrate myself before a human being, whom You created from clay, from molded mud.”
The Rock
34. He said, “Then get out of here, for you are an outcast”.
The Rock
35. “And the curse will be upon you until the Day of Judgment.”
The Rock
36. He said, “My Lord, reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected.”
The Rock
37. He said, “You are of those reprieved.”
The Rock
38. “Until the Day of the time appointed.”
The Rock
39. He said, “My Lord, since You have lured me away, I will glamorize for them on earth, and I will lure them all away.”
The Rock
40. “Except for Your sincere servants among them.”
The Rock
41. He said, “This is a right way with Me.”
The Rock
42. “Over My servants you have no authority, except for the sinners who follow you.”
The Rock
43. And Hell is the meeting-place for them all.
The Rock
44. “It has seven doors; for each door is an assigned class.”
The Rock
45. But the righteous will be in gardens with springs.
The Rock
46. “Enter it in peace and security.”
The Rock
47. And We will remove all ill-feelings from their hearts—brothers and sisters, on couches facing one another.
The Rock
48. No fatigue will ever touch them therein, nor will they be asked to leave it.
The Rock
49. Inform My servants that I am the Forgiver, the Merciful.
The Rock
50. And that My punishment is the painful punishment.
The Bee
2. He sends down the angels with the Spirit by His command, upon whom He wills of His servants: “Give warning that there is no god but Me, and fear Me.”
The Bee
3. He created the heavens and the earth with justice. He is exalted above the associations they attribute.
The Bee
4. He created the human being from a drop of fluid, yet he becomes an open adversary.
The Bee
5. And the livestock—He created them for you. In them are warmth and benefits for you, and of them you eat.
The Bee
6. And there is beauty in them for you, when you bring them home, and when you drive them to pasture.
The Bee
7. And they carry your loads to territory you could not have reached without great hardship. Your Lord is Clement and Merciful.
The Bee
8. And the horses, and the mules, and the donkeys—for you to ride, and for luxury. And He creates what you do not know.
The Bee
9. It is for God to point out the paths, but some of them are flawed. Had He willed, He could have guided you all.
The Bee
10. It is He Who sends down for you from the sky water. From it is drink, and with it grows vegetation for grazing.
The Bee
11. And He produces for you grains with it, and olives, and date-palms, and grapes, and all kinds of fruits. Surely in that is a sign for people who think.
The Bee
12. And He regulated for you the night and the day; and the sun, and the moon, and the stars are disposed by His command. Surely in that are signs for people who ponder.
The Bee
13. And whatsoever He created for you on earth is of diverse colors. Surely in that is a sign for people who are mindful.
The Bee
14. And it is He who made the sea to serve you, that you may eat from it tender meat, and extract from it ornaments that you wear. And you see the ships plowing through it, as you seek His bounties, so that you may give thanks.
The Bee
15. And he cast mountains on the earth, lest it shifts with you; and rivers, and roads, so that you may be guided.
The Bee
16. And landmarks. And by the stars they guide themselves.
The Bee
17. Is He who creates like him who does not create? Will you not take a lesson?
The Bee
18. And if you tried to enumerate the favors of God, you will not be able to count them. God is Forgiving and Merciful.
The Bee
19. And God knows what you hide and what you disclose.
The Bee
20. Those they invoke besides God create nothing, but are themselves created.
The Bee
21. They are dead, not alive; and they do not know when they will be resurrected.
The Bee
22. Your God is one God. As for those who do not believe in the Hereafter, their hearts are in denial, and they are arrogant.
The Cave
50. We said to the angels, “Bow down to Adam.” So they bowed down, except for Satan. He was of the jinn, and he defied the command of his Lord. Will you take him and his offspring as lords instead of Me, when they are an enemy to you? Evil is the exchange for the wrongdoers.
The Cave
51. I did not call them to witness the creation of the heavens and the earth, nor their own creation; and I do not take the misleaders for assistants.
The Cave
52. On the Day when He will say, “Call on My partners whom you have claimed.” They will call on them, but they will not answer them. And We will place between them a barrier.
The Cave
53. And the sinners will see the Fire, and will realize that they will tumble into it. They will find no deliverance from it.
The Cave
54. We have elaborated in this Quran for the people every kind of example, but the human being is a most argumentative being.
Ta Ha
115. And We covenanted with Adam before, but he forgot, and We found in him no resolve.
Ta Ha
116. And when We said to the angels, “Bow down to Adam.” They bowed down, except for Satan; he refused.
Ta Ha
117. We said, “O Adam, this is an enemy to you and to your wife. So do not let him make you leave the Garden, for then you will suffer.
Ta Ha
118. In it you will never go hungry, nor be naked.
Ta Ha
119. Nor will you be thirsty in it, nor will you swelter.”
Ta Ha
120. But Satan whispered to him. He said, “O Adam, shall I show you the Tree of Immortality, and a kingdom that never decays?”
Ta Ha
121. And so they ate from it; whereupon their bodies became visible to them, and they started covering themselves with the leaves of the Garden. Thus Adam disobeyed his Lord, and fell.
Ta Ha
122. But then his Lord recalled him, and pardoned him, and guided him.
Ta Ha
123. He said, “Go down from it, altogether; some of you enemies of some others. But whenever guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance, will not go astray, nor suffer.
Ta Ha
124. But whoever turns away from My Reminder, for him is a confined life. And We will raise him on the Day of Resurrection blind.”
Ta Ha
125. He will say, “My Lord, why did You raise me blind, though I was seeing?”
Ta Ha
126. He will say, “Just as Our revelations came to you, and you forgot them, today you will be forgotten.”
Ta Ha
127. Thus We recompense him who transgresses and does not believe in the revelations of his Lord. The punishment of the Hereafter is more severe, and more lasting.
Ta Ha
128. Is it not instructive to them, how many generations before them We destroyed, in whose settlements they walk? Surely in that are signs for people of understanding.
Ta Ha
129. Were it not for a word that issued from your Lord, the inevitable would have happened, but there is an appointed term.
Ta Ha
130. So bear patiently what they say, and celebrate the praises of your Lord before the rising of the sun, and before its setting. And during the hours of the night glorify Him, and at the borders of the day, that you may be satisfied.
Ta Ha
131. And do not extend your glance towards what We have given some classes of them to enjoy—the splendor of the life of this world—that We may test them thereby. Your Lord’s provision is better, and more lasting.
Ta Ha
132. And exhort your people to pray, and patiently adhere to it. We ask of you no sustenance, but it is We who sustain you. The good ending is that for righteousness.
Ta Ha
133. And they say, “Why does he not bring us a miracle from his Lord?” Were they not given enough miracles in the former scriptures?
Ta Ha
134. Had We destroyed them with a punishment before him, they would have said, “Our Lord, if only You had sent us a messenger, we would have followed Your revelations before we were humiliated and disgraced.”
Ta Ha
135. Say, “Everybody is waiting, so wait. You will know who the people of the straight path are, and who is rightly-guided.
The Believers
12. We created man from an extract of clay.
The Believers
13. Then We made him a seed, in a secure repository.
The Believers
14. Then We developed the seed into a clot. Then We developed the clot into a lump. Then We developed the lump into bones. Then We clothed the bones with flesh. Then We produced it into another creature. Most Blessed is God, the Best of Creators.
The Believers
15. Then, after that, you will die.
The Believers
16. Then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will be resurrected.
The Believers
17. We created above you seven pathways, and We are never heedless of the creation.
The Believers
18. And We sent down water from the sky in proper quantity, and settled it in the ground, and We are Able to take it away.
The Believers
19. With it We produce for you gardens of palms and vines, yielding abundant fruit for you to eat.
The Believers
20. And a tree springing out of Mount Sinai, producing oil, and seasoning for those who eat.
The Believers
21. And there is a lesson for you in livestock: We give you to drink from what is in their bellies, and you have many benefits in them, and from them you eat.
The Believers
22. And on them, and on the ships, you are transported.
The Light
35. God is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The allegory of His light is that of a pillar on which is a lamp. The lamp is within a glass. The glass is like a brilliant planet, fueled by a blessed tree, an olive tree, neither eastern nor western. Its oil would almost illuminate, even if no fire has touched it. Light upon Light. God guides to His light whomever He wills. God thus cites the parables for the people. God is cognizant of everything.
The Light
36. In houses which God has permitted to be raised, and His name is celebrated therein. He is glorified therein, morning and evening.
The Light
37. By men who neither trading nor commerce distracts them from God’s remembrance, and from performing the prayers, and from giving alms. They fear a Day when hearts and sights are overturned.
The Light
38. God will reward them according to the best of what they did, and He will increase them from His bounty. God provides for whomever He wills without reckoning.
The Light
39. As for those who disbelieve, their works are like a mirage in a desert. The thirsty assumes it is to be water. Until, when he has reached it, he finds it to be nothing, but there he finds God, Who settles his account in full. God is swift in reckoning.
The Light
40. Or like utter darkness in a vast ocean, covered by waves, above which are waves, above which is fog. Darkness upon darkness. If he brings out his hand, he will hardly see it. He to whom God has not granted a light has no light.
The Light
41. Do you not realize that God is glorified by whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and even by the birds in formation? Each knows its prayer and its manner of praise. God knows well what they do.
The Light
42. To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and to God is the ultimate return.
The Light
43. Have you not seen how God propels the clouds, then brings them together, then piles them into a heap, and you see rain drops emerging from its midst? How He brings down loads of hail from the sky, striking with it whomever He wills, and diverting it from whomever He wills? The flash of its lightning almost snatches the sight away.
The Light
44. God alternates the night and the day. In that is a lesson for those who have insight.
The Light
45. God created every living creature from water. Some of them crawl on their bellies, and some walk on two feet, and others walk on four. God creates whatever He wills. God is Capable of everything.
The Light
46. We sent down enlightening revelations, and God guides whomever He wills to a straight path.
The Discrimination
45. Do you not see how your Lord extends the shadow? Had He willed, He could have made it still. And We made the sun a pointer to it.
The Discrimination
46. Then We withdraw it towards Us gradually.
The Discrimination
47. And it is He who made the night a covering for you, and sleep for rest; and He made the day a revival.
The Discrimination
48. And it is He who sends the winds, bringing advance news of His mercy; and We send down from the sky pure water.
The Discrimination
49. To revive dead lands thereby, and to provide drink for the multitude of animals and humans We created.
The Discrimination
50. We have circulated it among them, that they may reflect, but most people persist in thanklessness.
The Romans
19. He brings the living out of the dead, and He brings the dead out of the living, and He revives the land after it had died. Likewise you will be resurrected.
The Romans
20. And of His signs is that He created you from dust; and behold, you become humans spreading out.
The Romans
21. And of His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, so that you may find tranquility in them; and He planted love and compassion between you. In this are signs for people who reflect.
The Romans
22. And of His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the diversity of your languages and colors. In this are signs for those who know.
The Romans
23. And of His signs are your sleep by night and day, and your pursuit of His bounty. In this are signs for people who listen.
The Romans
24. And of His signs is that He shows you the lightning, causing fear and hope. And He brings down water from the sky, and with it He revives the earth after it was dead. In this are signs for people who understand.
The Romans
25. And of His signs is that the heaven and the earth stand at His disposal. And then, when He calls you out of the earth, you will emerge at once.
The Romans
26. To Him belongs everyone in the heavens and the earth. All are submissive to Him.
The Romans
27. It is He who initiates creation, and then repeats it, something easy for Him. His is the highest attribute, in the heavens and the earth. He is the Almighty, the Wise.
The Romans
28. He illustrates an example for you, from your own selves: do you make your servants full partners in the wealth We have given you? Do you revere them as you revere one another? We thus explain the revelations for a people who understand.
The Romans
29. Yet the wrongdoers follow their desires without knowledge. But who can guide whom God leaves astray? They will have no helpers.
The Adoration
4. God is He who created the heavens and the earth and everything between them in six days, and then established Himself on the Throne. Apart from Him, you have no master and no intercessor. Will you not reflect?
The Adoration
5. He regulates all affairs, from the heavens, to the earth. Then it ascends to Him on a Day the length of which is a thousand years by your count.
The Adoration
6. That is the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible, the Powerful, the Merciful.
The Adoration
7. He who perfected everything He created, and originated the creation of man from clay.
The Adoration
8. Then made his reproduction from an extract of an insignificant fluid.
The Adoration
9. Then He proportioned him, and breathed into him of His Spirit. Then He gave you the hearing, and the eyesight, and the brains—but rarely do you give thanks.
The Originator
1. Praise be to God, Originator of the heavens and the earth, Maker of the angels messengers with wings—double, triple, and quadruple. He adds to creation as He wills. God is Able to do all things.
The Originator
The Originator
5. O people! The promise of God is true; so let not the lowly life seduce you, and let not the Tempter tempt you away from God.
The Originator
6. Satan is an enemy to you, so treat him as an enemy. He only invites his gang to be among the inmates of the Inferno.
The Originator
7. Those who disbelieve will suffer a harsh punishment, but those who believe and do righteous deeds will have forgiveness and a great reward.
The Originator
8. What of him whose evil deed was made attractive to him, and so he regards it as good? God leads astray whomever He wills, and He guides whomever He wills. Therefore, do not waste yourself sorrowing over them. God knows exactly what they do.
The Originator
9. God is He who sends the winds, which agitate clouds, which We drive to a dead land, and thereby revive the ground after it had died. Likewise is the Resurrection.
The Originator
10. Whoever desires honor—all honor belongs to God. To Him ascends speech that is pure, and He elevates righteous conduct. As for those who plot evil, a terrible punishment awaits them, and the planning of these will fail.
The Originator
11. God created you from dust, then from a small drop; then He made you pairs. No female conceives, or delivers, except with His knowledge. No living thing advances in years, or its life is shortened, except it be in a Record. That is surely easy for God.
The Originator
12. The two seas are not the same. One is fresh, sweet, good to drink, while the other is salty and bitter. Yet from each you eat tender meat, and extract jewelry which you wear. And you see the ships plowing through them, so that you may seek of His bounty, so that you may give thanks.
The Originator
13. He merges the night into the day, and He merges the day into the night; and He regulates the sun and the moon, each running for a stated term. Such is God, your Lord; His is the sovereignty. As for those you call upon besides Him, they do not possess a speck.
The Originator
