Surah Name	Prophet name	Verses number and verse
The Elevated Places	Noah	59. We sent Noah to his people. He said, “O my people! Worship God; you have no god other than Him. I fear for you the punishment of a tremendous Day.”
The Elevated Places	Noah	60. The dignitaries among his people said, “We see that you are in obvious error.”
The Elevated Places	Noah	61. He said, “O my people, I am not in error, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds.”
The Elevated Places	Noah	62. “I deliver to you the messages of my Lord, and I advise you, and I know from God what you do not know.”
The Elevated Places	Noah	63. “Do you wonder that a reminder has come to you from your Lord, through a man from among you, to warn you, and to lead you to righteousness, so that you may attain mercy?”
The Elevated Places	Noah	64. But they called him a liar. So We saved him and those with him in the Ark, and We drowned those who rejected Our revelations. They were blind people.
The Elevated Places	Aad	65. And to Aad, their brother Hud. He said, “O my people! Worship God; you have no god other than Him. Will you not take heed?”
The Elevated Places	Aad	66. The elite of his people who disbelieved said, “We see foolishness in you, and we think that you are a liar.”
The Elevated Places	Aad	67. He said, “O my people! There is no foolishness in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds.
The Elevated Places	Aad	68. “I convey to you the messages of my Lord, and I am a trustworthy adviser to you.”
The Elevated Places	Aad	69. “Are you surprised that a reminder has come to you from your Lord, through a man from among you, to warn you? Remember how He made you successors after the people of Noah, and increased you greatly in stature. And remember God’s blessings, so that you may prosper.”
The Elevated Places	Aad	70. They said, “Did you come to us to make us worship God alone, and abandon what our ancestors used to worship? Then bring us what you threaten us with, if you are truthful.”
The Elevated Places	Thamood	71. He said, “Condemnation and wrath have befallen you from your Lord. Are you arguing with me over names, which you and your ancestors invented, for which God sent down no authority? Just wait; I am waiting with you.”
The Elevated Places	Thamood	72. So We saved him and those with him, by mercy from Us, and We cut off the roots of those who rejected Our revelations and were not believers.
The Elevated Places	Thamood	73. And to Thamood, their brother Saleh. He said, “O my people! Worship God; you have no god other than Him. Clarification has come to you from your Lord. This she-camel of God is a sign for you. So leave her to graze on God’s earth, and do her no harm, lest a painful penalty seizes you.”
The Elevated Places	Thamood	74. “And remember how He made you successors after Aad, and settled you in the land. You make for yourselves mansions on its plains, and carve out dwellings in the mountains. So remember God’s benefits, and do not roam the earth corruptingly.”
The Elevated Places	Thamood	75. The elite of his people, who were arrogant, said to the common people who had believed, “Do you know that Saleh is sent from his Lord?” They said, “We are believers in what he was sent with.”
The Elevated Places	Thamood	76. Those who were arrogant said, “We reject what you believe in.”
The Elevated Places	Thamood	77. So they hamstrung the she-camel, and defied the command of their Lord, and said, “O Saleh, bring upon us what you threaten us with, if you are one of the messengers.”
The Elevated Places	Thamood	78. Whereupon the quake overtook them, and they became lifeless bodies in their homes.
The Elevated Places	Thamood	79. Then he turned away from them, and said, “O my people, I have delivered to you the message of my Lord, and I have advised you, but you do not like those who give advice.”
The Elevated Places	Lot	80. And Lot, when he said to his people, “Do you commit lewdness no people anywhere have ever committed before you?”
The Elevated Places	Lot	81. “You lust after men rather than women. You are an excessive people.”
The Elevated Places	Lot	82. And his people's only answer was to say, “Expel them from your town; they are purist people.”
The Elevated Places	Lot	83. But We saved him and his family, except for his wife; she was of those who lagged behind.
The Elevated Places	Lot	84. And We rained down on them a rain; note the consequences for the sinners.
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	85. And to Median, their brother Shuaib. He said, “O my people, worship God; you have no god other than Him. A clear proof has come to you from your Lord. Give full measure and weight, and do not cheat people out of their rights, and do not corrupt the land once it has been set right. This is better for you, if you are believers.”
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	86. “And do not lurk on every path, making threats and turning away from the path of God those who believe in Him, seeking to distort it. And remember how you were few, and how He made you numerous. So note the consequences for the corrupters.”
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	87. “Since some of you believed in what I was sent with, and some did not believe, be patient until God judges between us; for He is the Best of Judges.”
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	88. The arrogant elite among his people said, “O Shuaib, We will evict you from our town, along with those who believe with you, unless you return to our religion.” He said, “Even if we are unwilling?”
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	89. “We would be fabricating falsehood against God, if we were to return to your religion, after God has saved us from it. It is not for us to return to it, unless God, our Lord, wills. Our Lord embraces all things in knowledge. In God we place our trust. Our Lord, decide between us and our people in truth, for You are the Best of Deciders.”
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	90. The elite of his people who disbelieved said, “If you follow Shuaib, you will be losers.”
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	91. Thereupon, the quake struck them; and they became lifeless bodies in their homes.
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	92. Those who rejected Shuaib—as if they never prospered therein. Those who rejected Shuaib—it was they who were the losers.
The Elevated Places	Median-Shuaib	93. So he turned away from them, and said, “O my people, I have delivered to you the messages of my Lord, and I have advised you, so why should I grieve over a disbelieving people?”
The Elevated Places		94. We did not send any prophet to any town but We afflicted its people with misery and adversity, so that they may humble themselves.
The Elevated Places		95. Then We substituted prosperity in place of hardship. Until they increased in number, and said, “Adversity and prosperity has touched our ancestors.” Then We seized them suddenly, while they were unaware.
The Elevated Places		96. Had the people of the towns believed and turned righteous, We would have opened for them the blessings of the heaven and the earth; but they rejected the truth, so We seized them by what they were doing.
The Elevated Places		97. Do the people of the towns feel secure that Our might will not come upon them by night, while they sleep?
The Elevated Places		98. Do the people of the towns feel secure that Our might will not come upon them by day, while they play?
The Elevated Places		99. Do they feel safe from God’s plan? None feel safe from God’s plan except the losing people.
The Elevated Places		100. Is it not guidance for those who inherit the land after its inhabitants, that if We willed, We could strike them for their sins? And seal up their hearts, so that they would not hear?
The Elevated Places		101. These towns—We narrate to you some of their tales. Their messengers came to them with the clear signs, but they would not believe in what they had rejected previously. Thus God seals the hearts of the disbelievers.
The Elevated Places		102. We found most of them untrue to their covenants; We found most of them corrupt.

Jonah	Noah	71. And relate to them the story of Noah, when he said to his people, “O my people, if my presence among you and my reminding you of God’s signs is too much for you, then in God I have put my trust. So come to a decision, you and your partners, and do not let the matter perplex you; then carry out your decision on me, and do not hold back.”
Jonah	Noah	72. “But if you turn away, I have not asked you for any wage. My wage falls only on God, and I was commanded to be of those who submit.”
Jonah	Noah	73. But they denounced him, so We saved him and those with him in the Ark, and We made them successors, and We drowned those who rejected Our signs. So consider the fate of those who were warned.
Jonah	Noah	74. Then, after him, We sent messengers to their people. They came to them with the clear proofs, but they would not believe in anything they had already rejected. Thus We set a seal on the hearts of the hostile.
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	75. Then, after them, We sent Moses and Aaron with Our proofs to Pharaoh and his dignitaries. But they acted arrogantly. They were sinful people.
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	76. And when the truth came to them from Us, they said, “This is clearly sorcery.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	77. Moses said, “Is this what you say of the truth when it has come to you? Is this sorcery? Sorcerers do not succeed.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	78. They said, “Did you come to us to divert us from what we found our ancestors following, and so that you become prominent in the land? We will never believe in you.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	79. Pharaoh said, “Bring me every experienced sorcerer.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	80. And when the sorcerers came, Moses said to them, “Throw whatever you have to throw.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	81. And when they threw, Moses said, “What you produced is sorcery, and God will make it fail. God does not foster the efforts of the corrupt.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	82. “And God upholds the truth with His words, even though the sinners detest it.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	83. But none believed in Moses except some children of his people, for fear that Pharaoh and his chiefs would persecute them. Pharaoh was high and mighty in the land. He was a tyrant.
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	84. Moses said, “O my people, if you have believed in God, then put your trust in Him, if you have submitted.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	85. They said, “In God we have put our trust. Our Lord, do not make us victims of the oppressive people.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	86. “And deliver us, by Your mercy, from the disbelieving people.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	87. And We inspired Moses and his brother, “Settle your people in Egypt, and make your homes places of worship, and perform the prayer, and give good news to the believers.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	88. Moses said, “Our Lord, you have given Pharaoh and his chiefs splendor and wealth in the worldly life. Our Lord, for them to lead away from Your path. Our Lord, obliterate their wealth, and harden their hearts, they will not believe until they see the painful torment.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	89. He said, “Your prayer has been answered, so go straight, and do not follow the path of those who do not know.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	90. And We delivered the Children of Israel across the sea. Pharaoh and his troops pursued them, defiantly and aggressively. Until, when he was about to drown, he said, “I believe that there is no god except the One the Children of Israel believe in, and I am of those who submit.”
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	91. Now? When you have rebelled before, and been of the mischief-makers?
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	92. Today We will preserve your body, so that you become a sign for those after you. But most people are heedless of Our signs.
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	93. And We settled the Children of Israel in a position of honor, and provided them with good things. They did not differ until knowledge came to them. Your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection regarding their differences.
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	94. If you are in doubt about what We revealed to you, ask those who read the Scripture before you. The truth has come to you from your Lord, so do not be of those who doubt.
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	95. And do not be of those who deny God’s revelations, lest you become one of the losers.
Jonah	Moses-Aaron	96. Those against whom your Lord’s Word is justified will not believe.97. Even if every sign comes to them—until they see the painful punishment.
Jonah	Jonah	98. If only there was one town that believed and benefited by its belief. Except for the people of Jonah. When they believed, We removed from them the suffering of disgrace in the worldly life, and We gave them comfort for a while.
Jonah	Jonah	99. Had your Lord willed, everyone on earth would have believed. Will you compel people to become believers?
Jonah	Jonah	100. No soul can believe except by God’s leave; and He lays disgrace upon those who refuse to understand.
Jonah	Jonah	101. Say, “Look at what is in the heavens and the earth.” But signs and warnings are of no avail for people who do not believe.
Jonah	Jonah	102. Do they expect anything but the likes of the days of those who passed away before them? Say, “Then wait, I will be waiting with you.”
Jonah	Jonah	103. Then We save Our messengers and those who believe. It is binding on Us to save the believers.
Jonah	Jonah	104. Say, “O people, if you are in doubt about my religion—I do not serve those you serve apart from God. But I serve God, the one who will terminate your lives. And I was commanded to be of the believers.”
Jonah	Jonah	105. And dedicate yourself to the true religion—a monotheist—and never be of the polytheists.
Jonah	Jonah	106. And do not call, apart from God, on what neither benefits you nor harms you. If you do, you are then one of the wrongdoers.
Jonah	Jonah	107. If God afflicts you with harm, none can remove it except He. And if He wants good for you, none can repel His grace. He makes it reach whomever He wills of His servants. He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.
Jonah	Jonah	108. Say, “O people, the truth has come to you from your Lord. Whoever accepts guidance is guided for his own soul; and whoever strays only strays to its detriment. I am not a guardian over you.”
Jonah	Jonah	109. And follow what is revealed to you, and be patient until God issues His judgment, for He is the Best of judges.

Hud	Noah	25. We sent Noah to his people, “I am to you a clear warner.”26. “That you shall worship none but God. I fear for you the agony of a painful Day.”
Hud	Noah	27. The notables who disbelieved among his people said, “We see in you nothing but a man like us, and we see that only the worst among us have followed you, those of immature judgment. And we see that you have no advantage over us. In fact, we think you are liars.”
Hud	Noah	28. He said, “O my people, Have you considered? If I stand on clear evidence from my Lord, and He has given me a mercy from Himself, but you were blind to it, can we compel you to accept it, even though you dislike it?”
Hud	Noah	29. “O my people! I ask of you no money for it. My reward lies only with God. And I am not about to dismiss those who believed; they will surely meet their Lord. And I see that you are ignorant people.”
Hud	Noah	30. “O my people! Who will support me against God, if I dismiss them? Will you not give a thought?”
Hud	Noah	31. “I do not say to you that I possess the treasures of God, nor do I know the future, nor do I say that I am an angel. Nor do I say of those who are despicable in your eyes that God will never give them any good. God is Aware of what lies in their souls. If I did, I would be one of the wrongdoers.”
Hud	Noah	32. They said, “O Noah, you have argued with us, and argued a great deal. Now bring upon us what you threaten us with, if you are truthful.”
Hud	Noah	33. He said, “It is God who will bring it upon you, if He wills, and you will not be able to escape.”
Hud	Noah	34. “My advice will not benefit you, much as I may want to advise you, if God desires to confound you. He is your Lord, and to Him you will be returned.”
Hud	Noah	35. Or do they say, “He made it up?” Say, “If I made it up, upon me falls my crime, and I am innocent of the crimes you commit.”
Hud	Noah	36. And it was revealed to Noah: “None of your people will believe, except those who have already believed, so do not grieve over what they do.”
Hud	Noah	37. “And build the Ark, under Our eyes, and with Our inspiration, and do not address Me regarding those who did wrong; they are to be drowned.”
Hud	Noah	38. As he was building the ark, whenever some of his people passed by him, they ridiculed him. He said, “If you ridicule us, we will ridicule you, just as you ridicule.”
Hud	Noah	39. “You will surely know upon whom will come a torment that will abase him, and upon whom will fall a lasting torment.”
Hud	Noah	40. Until, when Our command came, and the volcano erupted, We said, “Board into it a pair of every kind, and your family—except those against whom the sentence has already been passed—and those who have believed.” But those who believed with him were only a few.
Hud	Noah	41. He said, “Embark in it. In the name of God shall be its sailing and its anchorage. My Lord is indeed Forgiving and Merciful.”
Hud	Noah	42. And so it sailed with them amidst waves like hills. And Noah called to his son, who had kept away, “O my son! Embark with us, and do not be with the disbelievers.”
Hud	Noah	43. He said, “I will take refuge on a mountain—it will protect me from the water.” He said, “There is no protection from God’s decree today, except for him on whom He has mercy.” And the waves surged between them, and he was among the drowned.
Hud	Noah	44. And it was said, “O earth, swallow your waters,” and “O heaven, clear up.” And the waters receded, and the event was concluded, and it settled on Judi, and it was proclaimed: “Away with the wicked people.”
Hud	Noah	45. And Noah called to his Lord. He said, “O My Lord, my son is of my family, and Your promise is true, and You are the Wisest of the wise.”
Hud	Noah	46. He said, “O Noah, he is not of your family. It is an unrighteous deed. So do not ask Me about something you know nothing about. I admonish you, lest you be one of the ignorant.”
Hud	Noah	47. He said, “O My Lord, I seek refuge with You, from asking You about what I have no knowledge of. Unless You forgive me, and have mercy on me, I will be one of the losers.”
Hud	Noah	48. It was said, “O Noah, disembark with peace from Us; and with blessings upon you, and upon communities from those with you. And other communities We will grant prosperity, and then a painful torment from Us will befall them.”
Hud	Noah	49. These are some stories from the past that we reveal to you. Neither you, nor your people knew them before this. So be patient. The future belongs to the pious.
Hud	Aad	50. And to Aad, their brother Hud. He said, “O my people, worship God, you have no other god besides Him. You do nothing but invent lies.”
Hud	Aad	51. “O my people, I ask you no wage for it; my wage lies with Him who originated me. Do you not understand?”
Hud	Aad	52. “O my people, ask forgiveness from your Lord, and repent to Him. He will release the sky pouring down upon you, and will add strength to your strength. And do not turn away and be wicked.”
Hud	Aad	53. They said, “O Hud, you did not bring us any evidence, and we are not about to abandon our gods at your word, and we are not believers in you.”
Hud	Aad	54. “We only say that some of our gods have possessed you with evil.” He said, “I call God to witness, and you to witness, that I am innocent of what you associate.
Hud	Aad	55. Besides Him. So scheme against me, all of you, and do not hesitate.
Hud	Aad	56. I have placed my trust in God, my Lord and your Lord. There is not a creature but He holds it by the forelock. My Lord is on a straight path.
Hud	Aad	57. If you turn away, I have conveyed to you what I was sent to you with; and my Lord will replace you with another people, and you will not cause Him any harm. My Lord is Guardian over all things.”
Hud	Aad	58. And when Our decree came, We saved Hud and those who believed with him, by a mercy from Us, and We delivered them from a harsh punishment.
Hud	Aad	59. That was Aad; they denied the signs of their Lord, and defied His messengers, and followed the lead of every stubborn tyrant.
Hud	Aad	60. And they were pursued by a curse in this world, and on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, Aad blasphemed against their Lord—so away with Aad, the people of Hud.
Hud	Thamood	61. And to Thamood, their brother Saleh. He said, “O my people, worship God, you have no god other than Him. He initiated you from the earth, and settled you in it. So seek His forgiveness, and repent to Him. My Lord is Near and Responsive.”
Hud	Thamood	62. They said, “O Saleh, we had hopes in you before this. Are you trying to prevent us from worshiping what our parents worship? We are in serious doubt regarding what you are calling us to.”
Hud	Thamood	63. He said, “O my people, have you considered? If I stand upon clear evidence from my Lord, and He has given me mercy from Him, who would protect me from God, if I disobeyed Him? You add nothing for me except loss.”
Hud	Thamood	64. “O my people, this is the she-camel of God, a sign for you. Let her graze on God’s land, and do not harm her, lest an imminent punishment overtakes you.”
Hud	Thamood	65. But they hamstrung her, and so He said, “Enjoy yourselves in your homes for three days. This is a prophecy that is infallible.”
Hud	Thamood	66. Then, when Our command came, We saved Saleh and those who believed with him, by a mercy from Us, from the disgrace of that day. Your Lord is the Strong, the Mighty.
Hud	Thamood	67. And the Scream struck those who transgressed, and they became motionless bodies in their homes.
Hud	Thamood	68. As if they had never prospered therein. Indeed, Thamood rejected their Lord, so away with Thamood.
Hud	Lot	69. Our messengers came to Abraham with good news. They said, “Peace.” He said, “Peace.” Soon after, he came with a roasted calf.
Hud	Lot	70. But when he saw their hands not reaching towards it, he became suspicious of them, and conceived a fear of them. They said, “Do not fear, we were sent to the people of Lot.”
Hud	Lot	71. His wife was standing by, so she laughed. And We gave her good news of Isaac; and after Isaac, Jacob.
Hud	Lot	72. She said, “Alas for me. Shall I give birth, when I am an old woman, and this, my husband, is an old man? This is truly a strange thing.”
Hud	Lot	73. They said, “Do you marvel at the decree of God? The mercy and blessings of God are upon you, O people of the house. He is Praiseworthy and Glorious.”
Hud	Lot	74. When Abraham's fear subsided, and the good news had reached him, he started pleading with Us concerning the people of Lot.
Hud	Lot	75. Abraham was gentle, kind, penitent.
Hud	Lot	76. “O Abraham, refrain from this. The command of your Lord has come; they have incurred an irreversible punishment.”
Hud	Lot	77. And when Our envoys came to Lot, he was anxious for them, and concerned for them. He said, “This is a dreadful day.”
Hud	Lot	78. And his people came rushing towards him—they were in the habit of committing sins. He said, “O my people, these are my daughters; they are purer for you. So fear God, and do not embarrass me before my guests. Is there not one reasonable man among you?”
Hud	Lot	79. They said, “You know well that we have no right to your daughters, and you know well what we want.”
Hud	Lot	80. He said, “If only I had the strength to stop you, or could rely on some strong support.”
Hud	Lot	81. They said, “O Lot, we are the envoys of your Lord; they will not reach you. So set out with your family during the cover of the night, and let none of you look back, except for your wife. She will be struck by what will strike them. Their appointed time is the morning. Is not the morning near?”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	82. And when Our command came about, We turned it upside down, and We rained down on it stones of baked clay.
Hud	Median-Shuaib	83. Marked from your Lord, and never far from the wrongdoers.
Hud	Median-Shuaib	84. And to Median, their brother Shuaib. He said, “O my people, worship God; you have no god other than Him. And do not short measure or short weight. I see you in good circumstances, but I fear for you the agony of an encompassing Day.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	85. “O my people! Give full measure and full weight, in all fairness, and do not cheat the people out of their rights, and do not spread corruption in the land.
Hud	Median-Shuaib	86. What is left by God is best for you, if you are believers. And I am not a guardian over you.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	87. They said, “O Shuaib, does your prayer command you that we abandon what our ancestors worshiped, or doing with our wealth what we want? You are the one who is intelligent and wise.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	88. He said, “O my people, have you considered? What if I have clear evidence from my Lord, and He has given me good livelihood from Himself? I have no desire to do what I forbid you from doing. I desire nothing but reform, as far as I can. My success lies only with God. In Him I trust, and to Him I turn.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	89. “O my people, let not your hostility towards me cause you to suffer what was suffered by the people of Noah, or the people of Hud, or the people of Saleh. The people of Lot are not far away from you.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	90. “And ask your Lord for forgiveness, and repent to Him. My Lord is Merciful and Loving.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	91. They said, “O Shuaib, we do not understand much of what you say, and we see that you are weak among us. Were it not for your tribe, we would have stoned you. You are of no value to us.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	92. He said, “O my people, is my tribe more important to you than God? And you have turned your backs on Him? My Lord comprehends everything you do.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	93. “O my people, do as you may, and so will I. You will know to whom will come a punishment that will shame him, and who is a liar. So look out; I am on the lookout with you.”
Hud	Median-Shuaib	94. And when Our command came, We saved Shuaib and those who believed with him, by mercy from Us, and the Blast struck the wrongdoers, and they became motionless bodies in their homes.
Hud	Median-Shuaib	95. As though they never flourished therein. Away with Median, as was done away with Thamood.
Hud	Moses	96. And We sent Moses with Our signs and a clear mandate.
Hud	Moses	97. To Pharaoh and his nobles, but they followed the command of Pharaoh, and the command of Pharaoh was not wise.
Hud	Moses	98. He will precede his people on the Day of Resurrection, and will lead them into the Fire. Miserable is the place he placed them in.
Hud	Moses	99. They were followed by a curse in this, and on the Day of Resurrection. Miserable is the path they followed.
Hud	Moses	100. These are of the reports of the towns—We relate them to you. Some are still standing, and some have withered away.
Hud	Moses	101. We did not wrong them, but they wronged themselves. Their gods, whom they invoked besides God, availed them nothing when the command of your Lord arrived. In fact, they added only to their ruin.
Hud	Moses	102. Such is the grip of your Lord when He seizes the towns in the midst of their sins. His grip is most painful, most severe.
Hud	Moses	103. In that is a sign for whoever fears the punishment of the Hereafter. That is a Day for which humanity will be gathered together—that is a Day to be witnessed.
Hud	Moses	104. We only postpone it until a predetermined time.
Hud	Moses	105. On the Day when it arrives, no soul will speak without His permission. Some will be miserable, and some will be happy.
Hud	Moses	106. As for those who are miserable, they will be in the Fire. They will have therein sighing and wailing.
Hud	Moses	107. Remaining therein for as long as the heavens and the earth endure, except as your Lord wills. Your Lord is Doer of whatever He wills.
Hud	Moses	108. And as for those who are happy, they will be in Paradise, remaining therein for as long as the heavens and the earth endure, except as your Lord wills—a reward without end.
Hud	Moses	109. So be not in doubt regarding what these people worship. They worship only as their ancestors worshiped before. We will pay them their due in full, without any reduction.
Hud	Moses	110. We gave Moses the Scripture, but it was disputed. Were it not for a prior word from your Lord, it would have been settled between them. They are in serious doubt concerning it.
Hud	Moses	111. Your Lord will repay each one of them in full for their deeds. He is Aware of everything they do.
Hud	Moses	112. So be upright, as you are commanded, along with those who repented with you, and do not transgress. He is Seeing of everything you do.
Hud	Moses	113. And do not incline towards those who do wrong, or the Fire may touch you; and you will have no protectors besides God, and you will not be saved.



Abraham		5. We sent Moses with Our signs: “Bring your people out of darkness into light, and remind them of the Days of God.” In that are signs for every patient and thankful person.”
Abraham		6. Moses said to his people, “Remember God’s blessings upon you, as He delivered you from the people of Pharaoh, who inflicted on you terrible suffering, slaughtering your sons while sparing your daughters. In that was a serious trial from your Lord.”
Abraham		7. And when your Lord proclaimed: “If you give thanks, I will grant you increase; but if you are ungrateful, My punishment is severe.”
Abraham		8. And Moses said, “Even if you are ungrateful, together with everyone on earth—God is in no need, Worthy of Praise.”
Abraham		9. Has not the story reached you, of those before you, the people of Noah, and Aad, and Thamood—and those after them? None knows them except God. Their messengers came to them with the clear proofs, but they tried to silence them, and said, “We reject what you are sent with, and we are in serious doubt regarding what you are calling us to.”
Abraham		10. Their messengers said, “Is there any doubt about God, Maker of the heavens and the earth? He calls you to forgive you your sins, and to defer you until a stated term.” They said, “You are only humans like us; you want to turn us away from what our ancestors worshiped; so bring us a clear proof.”
Abraham		11. Their messengers said to them, “We are only humans like you, but God favors whomever He wills from among His servants. We cannot possibly show you any proof, except by leave of God. In God let the faithful put their trust.”
Abraham		12. “And why should we not trust in God, when He has guided us in our ways? We will persevere in the face of your persecution. And upon God the reliant should rely.”
Abraham		13. Those who disbelieved said to their messengers, “We will expel you from our land, unless you return to our religion.” And their Lord inspired them: “We will destroy the wrongdoers.”
Abraham		14. “And We will settle you in the land after them. That is for him who fears My Majesty, and fears My threats.”
Abraham		15. And they prayed for victory, and every stubborn tyrant came to disappointment.
Abraham		16. Beyond him lies Hell, and he will be given to drink putrid water.
Abraham		17. He will guzzle it, but he will not swallow it. Death will come at him from every direction, but he will not die. And beyond this is relentless suffering.
Abraham		18. The likeness of those who disbelieve in their Lord: their works are like ashes, in a fierce wind, on a stormy day. They have no control over anything they have earned. That is the utmost misguidance.
Abraham		19. Do you not see that God created the heavens and the earth with truth? If He wills, He can do away with you, and bring a new creation.
Abraham		20. And that is not difficult for God.
Abraham		21. They will emerge before God, altogether. The weak will say to those who were proud, “We were your followers, can you protect us at all against God’s punishment?” They will say, “Had God guided us, we would have guided you. It is the same for us; whether we mourn, or are patient; there is no asylum for us.”
Abraham		22. And Satan will say, when the issue is settled, “God has promised you the promise of truth, and I promised you, but I failed you. I had no authority over you, except that I called you, and you answered me. So do not blame me, but blame yourselves. I cannot come to your aid, nor can you come to my aid. I reject your associating with me in the past. The wrongdoers will have a torment most painful.”
Abraham		23. But those who believed and did good deeds will be admitted into gardens beneath which rivers flow, to remain therein forever, by leave of their Lord. Their greeting therein will be: “Peace.”
Abraham		24. Do you not see how God presents a parable? A good word is like a good tree—its root is firm, and its branches are in the sky.
Abraham		25. It yields its fruits every season by the will of its Lord. God presents the parables to the people, so that they may reflect.
Abraham		26. And the parable of a bad word is that of a bad tree—it is uprooted from the ground; it has no stability.
Abraham		27. God gives firmness to those who believe, with the firm word, in this life, and in the Hereafter. And God leads the wicked astray. God does whatever He wills.
Abraham		28. Have you not seen those who exchanged the blessing of God with blasphemy, and landed their people into the house of perdition?
Abraham		29. Hell—they will roast in it. What a miserable settlement.
Abraham		30. And they set up rivals to God, in order to lead away from His path. Say, “Enjoy yourselves; your destination is the Fire.”
Abraham		31. Tell My servants who have believed to perform the prayers, and to give from what We have given them, secretly and publicly, before a Day comes in which there is neither trading nor friendship.


The Rock	Abraham	51. And inform them of the guests of Abraham.
The Rock	Abraham	52. When they entered upon him, and said, “Peace.” He said, “We are wary of you.”
The Rock	Abraham	53. They said, “Do not fear; we bring you good news of a boy endowed with knowledge.”
The Rock	Abraham	54. He said, “Do you bring me good news, when old age has overtaken me? What good news do you bring?”
The Rock	Abraham	55. They said, “We bring you good news in truth, so do not despair.”
The Rock	Abraham	56. He said, “And who despairs of his Lord’s mercy but the lost?”
The Rock	Abraham	57. He said, “So what is your business, O envoys?”
The Rock	Abraham	58. They said, “We were sent to a sinful people.”
The Rock	Abraham	59. “Except for the family of Lot; we will save them all.”
The Rock	Abraham	60. “Except for his wife.” We have determined that she will be of those who lag behind.
The Rock	Lot	61. And when the envoys came to the family of Lot.
The Rock	Lot	62. He said, “You are a people unknown to me.”
The Rock	Lot	63. They said, “We bring you what they have doubts about.”
The Rock	Lot	64. “We bring you the truth, and we are truthful.”
The Rock	Lot	65. “Travel with your family at the dead of the night, and follow up behind them, and let none of you look back, and proceed as commanded.”
The Rock	Lot	66. And We informed him of Our decree: the last remnant of these will be uprooted by early morning.
The Rock	Lot	67. And the people of the town came joyfully.
The Rock	Lot	68. He said, “These are my guests, so do not embarrass me.”
The Rock	Lot	69. “And fear God, and do not disgrace me.”
The Rock	Lot	70. They said, “Did we not forbid you from strangers?”
The Rock	Lot	71. He said, “These are my daughters, if you must.”
The Rock	Lot	72. By your life, they were blundering in their drunkenness.
The Rock	Lot	73. So the Blast struck them at sunrise.
The Rock	Lot	74. And We turned it upside down, and rained down upon them stones of baked clay.
The Rock	Lot	75. Surely in that are lessons for those who read signs.
The Rock	Lot	76. And it is on an existing road.
The Rock	people of the Woods	77. Surely in that is a sign for the believers.
The Rock	people of the Woods	78. The people of the Woods were also wrongdoers.
The Rock	people of the Woods	79. So We took revenge upon them. Both are clearly documented.
The Rock	people of the Rock	80. The people of the Rock also rejected the messengers.
The Rock	people of the Rock	81. We gave them Our revelations, but they turned away from them.
The Rock	people of the Rock	82. They used to carve homes in the mountains, feeling secure.
The Rock	people of the Rock	83. But the Blast struck them in the morning.
The Rock	people of the Rock	84. All they had acquired was of no avail to them.

The Night Journy	Noah	17. How many generations have We destroyed after Noah? Your Lord is sufficient as Knower and Beholder of the sins of his servants.
The Night Journy	Noah	18. Whoever desires the fleeting life, We expedite for him what We decide to give him, to whomever We desire. Then We consign him to Hell, where he will roast, condemned and defeated.
The Night Journy	Noah	19. But whoever desires the Hereafter, and pursues it as it should be pursued, while he is a believer; these—their effort will be appreciated.
The Night Journy	Noah	20. To all—these and those—We extend from the gifts of your Lord. The gifts of your Lord are not restricted.

The Prophets		25. We never sent a messenger before you without inspiring him that: “There is no god but I, so worship Me.”
The Prophets		26. And they say, “The Most Merciful has taken to himself a son.” Be He glorified; they are but honored servants.
The Prophets		27. They never speak before He has spoken, and they only act on His command.
The Prophets		28. He knows what is before them, and what is behind them; and they do not intercede except for him whom He approves; and they tremble in awe of Him.
The Prophets		29. And whoever of them says, “I am a god besides Him,” We will reward him with Hell. Thus We reward the wrongdoers.
The Prophets		30. Do the disbelievers not see that the heavens and the earth were one mass, and We tore them apart? And We made from water every living thing. Will they not believe?
The Prophets		31. And We placed on earth stabilizers, lest it sways with them, and We placed therein signposts and passages, that they may be guided.
The Prophets		32. And We made the sky a protected ceiling; yet they turn away from its wonders.
The Prophets		33. It is He who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; each floating in an orbit.
The Prophets		34. We did not grant immortality to any human being before you. Should you die, are they then the immortal?
The Prophets		35. Every soul will taste death. We burden you with adversity and prosperity—a test. And to Us you will be returned.
The Prophets		36. When those who disbelieve see you, they treat you only with ridicule: “Is this the one who mentions your gods?” And they reject the mention of the Merciful.
The Prophets		37. The human being was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not seek to rush Me.
The Prophets		38. And they say, “When will this promise come true, if you are truthful?”
The Prophets		39. If those who disbelieve only knew, when they cannot keep the fire off their faces and off their backs, and they will not be helped.
The Prophets		40. In fact, it will come upon them suddenly, and bewilder them. They will not be able to repel it, and they will not be reprieved.
The Prophets		41. Messengers before you were also ridiculed, but those who jeered were surrounded by what they had ridiculed.
The Prophets		42. Say, “Who guards you against the Merciful by night and by day?” But they turn away from the mention of their Lord.
The Prophets		43. Or do they have gods who can defend them against Us? They cannot help themselves, nor will they be protected from Us.
The Prophets		44. We have given these enjoyments, and their ancestors, until time grew long upon them. Do they not see how We gradually reduce the land from its extremities? Are they then the victors?
The Prophets		45. Say, “I am warning you through inspiration.” But the deaf cannot hear the call when they are being warned.
The Prophets		46. And when a breath of your Lord’s punishment touches them, they say, “Woe to us, we were truly wicked.”
The Prophets		47. We will set up the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so that no soul will suffer the least injustice. And even if it be the weight of a mustard-seed, We will bring it up. Sufficient are We as Reckoners.
The Prophets	Moses-Aaron	48. We gave Moses and Aaron the Criterion, and illumination, and a reminder for the righteous.
The Prophets		49. Those who fear their Lord in private, and are apprehensive of the Hour.
The Prophets	Abraham	50. This too is a blessed message that We revealed. Are you going to deny it?
The Prophets	Abraham	51. We gave Abraham his integrity formerly, and We knew him well.
The Prophets	Abraham	52. When he said to his father and his people, “What are these statues to which you are devoted?”
The Prophets	Abraham	53. They said, “We found our parents worshiping them.”
The Prophets	Abraham	54. He said, “You and your parents are in evident error.”
The Prophets	Abraham	55. They said, “Are you telling us the truth, or are you just playing?”
The Prophets	Abraham	56. He said, “Your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the One who created them, and I bear witness to that.
The Prophets	Abraham	57. “By God, I will have a plan for your statues after you have gone away.”
The Prophets	Abraham	58. So he reduced them into pieces, except for their biggest, that they may return to it.
The Prophets	Abraham	59. They said, “Who did this to our gods? He is certainly one of the wrongdoers.”
The Prophets	Abraham	60. They said, “We heard a youth mentioning them. He is called Abraham.”
The Prophets	Abraham	61. They said, “Bring him before the eyes of the people, so that they may witness.”
The Prophets	Abraham	62. They said, “Are you the one who did this to our gods, O Abraham?”
The Prophets	Abraham	63. He said, “But it was this biggest of them that did it. Ask them, if they can speak.”
The Prophets	Abraham	64. Then they turned to one another, and said, “You yourselves are the wrongdoers.”
The Prophets	Abraham	65. But they reverted to their old ideas: “You certainly know that these do not speak.”
The Prophets	Abraham	66. He said, “Do you worship, instead of God, what can neither benefit you in anything, nor harm you?
The Prophets	Abraham	67. Fie on you, and on what you worship instead of God. Do you not understand?”
The Prophets	Abraham	68. They said, “Burn him and support your gods, if you are going to act.”
The Prophets	Abraham	69. We said, “O fire, be coolness and safety upon Abraham.”
The Prophets	Abraham	70. They planned to harm him, but We made them the worst losers.
The Prophets	Lot	71. And We delivered him, and Lot, to the land that We blessed for all people.
The Prophets	Lot	72. And We granted him Isaac and Jacob as a gift; and each We made righteous.
The Prophets	Noah	73. And We made them leaders, guiding by Our command; and We inspired them to do good works, and to observe the prayer, and to give out charity. They were devoted servants to Us.
The Prophets	Noah	74. And Lot—We gave him judgment and knowledge, and We delivered him from the town that practiced the abominations. They were wicked and perverted people.
The Prophets	Noah	75. And We admitted him into Our mercy; for He was one of the righteous.
The Prophets	Noah	76. And Noah, when he called before. So We answered him, and delivered him and his family from the great disaster.
The Prophets	Noah	77. And We supported him against the people who rejected Our signs. They were an evil people, so We drowned them all.
The Prophets	David - Solomon	78. And David and Solomon, when they gave judgment in the case of the field, when some people’s sheep wandered therein by night; and We were witnesses to their judgment.
The Prophets	David - Solomon	79. And so We made Solomon understand it, and to each We gave wisdom and knowledge. And We subjected the mountains along with David to sing Our praises, and the birds as well—surely We did.
The Prophets	David - Solomon	80. And We taught him the making of shields for you, to protect you from your violence. Are you, then, appreciative?
The Prophets	David - Solomon	81. And to Solomon the stormy wind, blowing at His command towards the land that We have blessed. We are aware of everything.
The Prophets	David - Solomon	82. And of the devils were some that dived for him, and performed other, lesser tasks. But We kept them restrained.
The Prophets	Job	83. And Job, when he cried out to his Lord: “Great harm has afflicted me, and you are the Most Merciful of the merciful.”
The Prophets	Job	84. So We answered him, lifted his suffering, and restored his family to him, and their like with them—a mercy from Us, and a reminder for the worshipers.
The Prophets	Ishmael-Enonch-Ezekiel	85. And Ishmael, and Enoch, and Ezekiel; each was one of the steadfast.
The Prophets	Ishmael-Enonch-Ezekiel	86. And We admitted them into Our mercy. They were among the righteous.
The Prophets	Jonah	87. And Jonah, when he stormed out in fury, thinking We had no power over him. But then He cried out in the darkness, “There is no god but You! Glory to You! I was one of the wrongdoers!”
The Prophets	Jonah	88. So We answered him, and saved him from the affliction. Thus We save the faithful.
The Prophets	Zechariah	89. And Zechariah, when he called out to his Lord, “My Lord, do not leave me alone, even though you are the Best of heirs.”
The Prophets	John	90. So We answered him, and gave him John. And We cured his wife for him. They used to vie in doing righteous deeds, and used to call on Us in love and awe, and they used to humble themselves to Us.
The Prophets	John	91. And she who guarded her virginity. We breathed into her of Our spirit, and made her and her son a sign to the world.
The Prophets	Zechariah	92. This community of yours is one community, and I am your Lord, so worship Me.
The Prophets	Zechariah	93. But they splintered themselves into factions. They will all return to Us.
The Prophets	Zechariah	94. Whoever does righteous deeds, and is a believer, his effort will not be denied. We are writing it down for him.
The Prophets	Zechariah	95. There is a ban on the town that We had destroyed—that they will not return.
The Prophets	Zechariah	96. Until, when Gog and Magog are let loose, and they swarm down from every mound.
The Prophets	Zechariah	97. The promise of truth has drawn near. The eyes of those who disbelieved will stare in horror: “Woe to us. We were oblivious to this. In fact, we were wrongdoers.”
The Prophets	Zechariah	98. You and what you worship besides God are fuel for Hell. You will descend into it.
The Prophets	Zechariah	99. Had these been gods, they would not have descended into it. All will abide in it.
The Prophets	Zechariah	100. In it they will wail. In it they will not hear.
The Prophets	Zechariah	101. As for those who deserved goodness from Us—these will be kept away from it.
The Prophets	Zechariah	102. They will not hear its hissing, and they will forever abide in what their hearts desire.
The Prophets	Zechariah	103. The Supreme Fear will not worry them, and the angels will receive them: “This is your Day which you were promised.”
The Prophets	Zechariah	104. On the Day when We fold the heaven, like the folding of a book. Just as We began the first creation, We will repeat it—a promise binding on Us. We will act.
The Prophets	Zechariah	105. We have written in the Psalms, after the Reminder, that the earth will be inherited by My righteous servants.
The Prophets	Zechariah	106. Indeed, in this is a message for people who worship.
The Prophets	Zechariah	107. We did not send you except as mercy to mankind.
The Prophets	Zechariah	108. Say, “It is revealed to me that your God is One God. Are you going to submit?”
The Prophets	Zechariah	109. But if they turn away, say, “I have informed you sufficiently. Although I do not know whether what you are promised is near or far.”
The Prophets	Zechariah	110. He knows what is said openly, and He knows what you conceal.
The Prophets	Zechariah	111. “And I do not know whether it is perhaps a trial for you, and an enjoyment for a while.”
The Prophets	Zechariah	112. He said, “My Lord, judge with justice.” And, “Our Lord is the Gracious, Whose help is sought against what you allege.”

The Pilgrimage	Noah	42. If they deny you—before them the people of Noah, and Aad, and Thamood also denied.
The Pilgrimage	Abraham	43. And the people of Abraham, and the people of Lot.
The Pilgrimage	Median	44. And the inhabitants of Median. And Moses was denied. Then I reprieved those who disbelieved, but then I seized them. So how was My rejection?

The Believers	Noah	23. We sent Noah to his people. He said, “O my people, worship God, you have no deity other than Him. Will you not take heed?”
The Believers	Noah	24. But the notables of his people, who disbelieved, said, “This is nothing but a human like you, who wants to gain superiority over you. Had God willed, He would have sent down angels. We never heard of this from our forefathers of old.
The Believers	Noah	25. He is nothing but a man possessed. Just ignore him for a while.”
The Believers	Noah	26. He said, “My Lord, help me, for they have rejected me.”
The Believers	Noah	27. So We inspired him: “Build the Ark under Our observation and by Our inspiration. And when Our decree comes to pass, and the oven boils over, load into it two pairs of every kind, together with your family, except those of them against whom the word has already been pronounced. And do not speak to me concerning those who did wrong; for they are to be drowned.”
The Believers	Noah	28. Then, when you and those with you are settled in the Ark, say, “Praise be to God, who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.”
The Believers	Noah	29. And say, “My Lord, land me with a blessed landing, as you are the best of transporters.”
The Believers	Noah	30. Surely in that are signs. We are always testing.
The Believers	Noah	31. Then, after them, We established another generation.
The Believers		32. And We sent among them a messenger from themselves: “Serve God. You have no god other than Him. Will you not be cautious?”
The Believers		33. But the dignitaries of his people, those who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter, and We had indulged them in the present life, said, “This is nothing but a human like you; he eats what you eat, and he drinks what you drink.
The Believers		34. If you obey a human being like yourselves, then you will be losers.
The Believers		35. Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones, you will be brought out?
The Believers		36. Farfetched, farfetched is what you are promised.
The Believers		37. There is nothing but our life in this world. We die, and we live, and we are not resurrected.
The Believers		38. He is nothing but a man, making up lies about God. We have no faith in him.”
The Believers		39. He said, “My Lord, help me, for they have rejected me.”
The Believers		40. He said, “Soon they will be filled with regret.”
The Believers		41. Then the Blast struck them, justifiably, and We turned them into scum. So away with the wicked people.
The Believers		42. Then, after them, We raised other generations.
The Believers		43. No nation can advance its time, nor can they postpone it.
The Believers		44. Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time a messenger came to his community, they called him a liar. So We made them follow one another, and made them history. So away with a people who do not believe.
The Believers	Moses-Aaron	45. Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron, with Our signs and a clear authority.
The Believers		46. To Pharaoh and his nobles, but they turned arrogant. They were oppressive people.
The Believers		47. They said, “Are we to believe in two mortals like us, and their people are our slaves?”
The Believers		48. So they called them liars, and thus were among those destroyed.
The Believers		49. And We gave Moses the Scripture, that they may be guided.
The Believers		50. And We made Mary’s son and his mother a sign, and We sheltered them on high ground with security and flowing springs.
The Believers		51. O messengers, eat of the good things, and act with integrity. I am aware of what you do.
The Believers		52. This nation of yours is one nation, and I am your Lord, so fear Me.

The Discrimination		35. We gave Moses the Scripture, and appointed his brother Aaron as his assistant.
The Discrimination		36. We said, “Go to the people who rejected Our signs,” and We destroyed them completely.
The Discrimination		37. And the people of Noah: when they rejected the messengers, We drowned them, and made them a lesson for mankind. We have prepared for the wrongdoers a painful retribution.
The Discrimination		38. And Aad, and Thamood, and the inhabitants of Arras, and many generations in between.
The Discrimination		39. To each We presented the parables; and each We devastated utterly.
The Discrimination		40. And they came upon the city that was drenched by the terrible rain. Did they not see it? But they do not expect resurrection.

Counsel		10. Your Lord called to Moses, “Go to the tyrannical people.
Counsel		11. The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear?”
Counsel		12. He said, “My Lord, I fear they will reject me.
Counsel		13. And I become stressed, and my tongue is not fluent, so send Aaron too.
Counsel		14. And they have a charge against me, so I fear they will kill me.”
Counsel		15. He said, “No. Go, both of you, with Our proofs. We will be with you, listening.
Counsel		16. Go to Pharaoh, and say, ‘We are the Messengers of the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		17. Let the Children of Israel go with us.'“
Counsel		18. He said, “Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you stayed among us for many of your years?
Counsel		19. And you committed that deed you committed, and you were ungrateful.”
Counsel		20. He said, “I did it then, when I was of those astray.
Counsel		21. And I fled from you when I feared you; but my Lord gave me wisdom, and made me one of the messengers.
Counsel		22. Is that the favor you taunt me with, although you have enslaved the Children of Israel?”
Counsel		23. Pharaoh said, “And what is the Lord of the Worlds?”
Counsel		24. He said, “The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them, if you are aware.”
Counsel		25. He said to those around him, “Do you not hear?”
Counsel		26. He said, “Your Lord and the Lord of your ancestors of old.”
Counsel		27. He said, “This messenger of yours, who is sent to you, is crazy.”
Counsel		28. He said, “Lord of the East and the West, and everything between them, if you understand.”
Counsel		29. He said, “If you accept any god other than me, I will make you a prisoner.”
Counsel		30. He said, “What if I bring you something convincing?”
Counsel		31. He said, “Bring it, if you are being truthful.”
Counsel		32. So he cast his staff; and it was a serpent, plain to see.
Counsel		33. And he pulled his hand; and it was white, for all to see.
Counsel		34. He said to the dignitaries around him, “This is a skilled magician.
Counsel		35. He intends to drive you out of your land with his magic, so what do you recommend?”
Counsel		36. They said, “Delay him and his brother, and send recruiters to the cities.
Counsel		37. To bring you every experienced magician.”
Counsel		38. So the magicians were gathered for the appointment on a specified day.
Counsel		39. And it was said to the people, “Are you all gathered?
Counsel		40. That we may follow the magicians, if they are the winners.”
Counsel		41. When the magicians arrived, they said to Pharaoh, “Is there a reward for us, if we are the winners?”
Counsel		42. He said, “Yes, and you will be among those favored.”
Counsel		43. Moses said to them, “Present what you intend to present.”
Counsel		44. So they threw their ropes and their sticks, and said, “By the majesty of Pharaoh, we will be the winners.”
Counsel		45. Then Moses threw his staff, and behold, it began swallowing their trickery.
Counsel		46. And the magicians fell down prostrating.
Counsel		47. They said, “We have believed in the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		48. The Lord of Moses and Aaron.”
Counsel		49. He said, “Did you believe in Him before I have given you permission? He must be your chief, who taught you magic. You will soon know. I will cut off your hands and feet on opposite sides, and I will crucify you all.”
Counsel		50. They said, “No problem. To our Lord we will return.
Counsel		51. We are eager for our Lord to forgive us our sins, since we are the first of the believers.”
Counsel		52. And We inspired Moses: “Travel with My servants by night. You will be followed.”
Counsel		53. Pharaoh sent heralds to the cities.
Counsel		54. “These are a small gang.
Counsel		55. And they are enraging us.
Counsel		56. But we are a vigilant multitude.”
Counsel		57. So We drove them out of gardens and springs.
Counsel		58. And treasures and noble dwellings.
Counsel		59. So it was. And We made the Children of Israel inherit them.
Counsel		60. And they pursued them at sunrise.
Counsel		61. When the two groups sighted each other, the followers of Moses said, “We are being overtaken.”
Counsel		62. He said, “No; my Lord is with me, He will guide me.”
Counsel		63. We inspired Moses: “Strike the sea with your staff.” Whereupon it parted, and each part was like a huge hill.
Counsel		64. And there We brought the others near.
Counsel		65. And We saved Moses and those with him, all together.
Counsel		66. Then We drowned the others.
Counsel		67. In that there is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
Counsel		68. Surely, your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
Counsel		69. And relate to them the story of Abraham.
Counsel		70. When he said to his father and his people, “What do you worship?”
Counsel		71. They said, “We worship idols, and we remain devoted to them.”
Counsel		72. He said, “Do they hear you when you pray?
Counsel		73. Or do they benefit you, or harm you?”
Counsel		74. They said, “But we found our ancestors doing so.”
Counsel		75. He said, “Have you considered what you worship.
Counsel		76. You and your ancient ancestors?
Counsel		77. They are enemies to me, but not so the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		78. He who created me, and guides me.
Counsel		79. He who feeds me, and waters me.
Counsel		80. And when I get sick, He heals me.
Counsel		81. He who makes me die, and then revives me.
Counsel		82. He who, I hope, will forgive my sins on the Day of the Reckoning.”
Counsel		83. “My Lord! Grant me wisdom, and include me with the righteous.
Counsel		84. And give me a reputation of truth among the others.
Counsel		85. And make me of the inheritors of the Garden of Bliss.
Counsel		86. And forgive my father—he was one of the misguided.
Counsel		87. And do not disgrace me on the Day they are resurrected.
Counsel		88. The Day when neither wealth nor children will help.
Counsel		89. Except for him who comes to God with a sound heart.”
Counsel		90. And Paradise will be brought near for the righteous.
Counsel		91. And the Blaze will be displayed to the deviators.
Counsel		92. And it will be said to them, “Where are those you used to worship?”
Counsel		93. Besides God? Can they help you, or help themselves?”
Counsel		94. Then they will be toppled into it, together with the seducers.
Counsel		95. And the soldiers of Satan, all of them.
Counsel		96. They will say, as they feud in it.
Counsel		97. “By God, We were in evident error.
Counsel		98. For equating you with the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		99. No one misled us except the sinners.
Counsel		100. Now we have no intercessors.
Counsel		101. And no sincere friend.
Counsel		102. If only we could have another chance, we would be among the faithful.”
Counsel		103. Surely in this is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
Counsel		104. Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
Counsel		105. The people of Noah disbelieved the messengers.
Counsel		106. Their brother Noah said to them, “Do you not fear?
Counsel		107. I am to you a faithful messenger.
Counsel		108. So fear God, and obey me.
Counsel		109. I ask of you no payment for this. My payment is only from the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		110. So fear God, and obey me.”
Counsel		111. They said, “Shall we believe in you, when it is the lowliest who follow you?”
Counsel		112. He said, “What do I know about what they do?
Counsel		113. Their account rests only with my Lord, if you have sense.
Counsel		114. And I am not about to drive away the believers.
Counsel		115. I am only a clear warner.”
Counsel		116. They said, “If you do not refrain, O Noah, you will be stoned.”
Counsel		117. He said, “My Lord, my people have denied me.
Counsel		118. So judge between me and them decisively, and deliver me and the believers who are with me.
Counsel		119. So We delivered him and those with him in the laden Ark.
Counsel		120. Then We drowned the rest.
Counsel		121. In that is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
Counsel		122. Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
Counsel		123. Aad disbelieved the messengers.
Counsel		124. When their brother Hud said to them, “Do you not fear?
Counsel		125. I am to you a faithful messenger.
Counsel		126. So fear God, and obey me.
Counsel		127. I ask of you no payment for this. My payment is only from the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		128. Do you build a monument on every height for vanity's sake?
Counsel		129. And you set up fortresses, hoping to live forever?
Counsel		130. And when you strike, you strike mercilessly?
Counsel		131. So fear God, and obey me.
Counsel		132. And reverence Him, who supplied you with everything you know.
Counsel		133. He supplied you with livestock and children.
Counsel		134. And gardens and springs.
Counsel		135. I fear for you the punishment of an awesome Day.”
Counsel		136. They said, “It is the same for us, whether you lecture us, or do not lecture.
Counsel		137. This is nothing but morals of the ancients.
Counsel		138. And we will not be punished.”
Counsel		139. So they denied him, and We destroyed them. Surely in this is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
Counsel		140. Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
Counsel		141. Thamood disbelieved the messengers.
Counsel		142. When their brother Saleh said to them, “Do you not fear?
Counsel		143. I am to you a faithful messenger.
Counsel		144. So fear God, and obey me.
Counsel		145. I ask of you no payment for it. My payment is only from the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		146. Will you be left secure in what is here?
Counsel		147. In gardens and springs?
Counsel		148. And fields, and palm-trees whose fruits are delicious?
Counsel		149. And you skillfully carve houses in the mountains?
Counsel		150. So fear God, and obey me.
Counsel		151. And do not obey the command of the extravagant.
Counsel		152. Who spread turmoil on earth, and do not reform.”
Counsel		153. They said, “You are surely one of the bewitched.
Counsel		154. You are nothing but a man like us. So bring us a sign, if you are truthful.
Counsel		155. He said, “This is a she-camel; she has her turn of drinking, and you have your turn of drinking—on a specified day.
Counsel		156. And do not touch her with harm, lest the punishment of a great day seizes you.”
Counsel		157. But they slaughtered her, and became full of remorse.
Counsel		158. So the punishment overtook them. Surely in this is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
Counsel		159. Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
Counsel		160. The people of Lot disbelieved the messengers.
Counsel		161. When their brother Lot said to them, “Do you not fear?
Counsel		162. I am to you a faithful messenger.
Counsel		163. So fear God, and obey me.
Counsel		164. I ask of you no payment for it. My payment is only from the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		165. Do you approach the males of the world?
Counsel		166. And forsake the wives your Lord created for you? Indeed, you are intrusive people.”
Counsel		167. They said, “Unless you refrain, O Lot, you will be expelled.”
Counsel		168. He said, “I certainly deplore your conduct.”
Counsel		169. “My Lord, save me and my family from what they do.”
Counsel		170. So We saved him and his family, altogether.
Counsel		171. Except for an old woman among those who tarried.
Counsel		172. Then We destroyed the others.
Counsel		173. And We rained down on them a rain. Dreadful is the rain of those forewarned.
Counsel		174. Surely in this is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
Counsel		175. Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
Counsel		176. The People of the Woods disbelieved the messengers.
Counsel		177. When Shuaib said to them, “Do you not fear?
Counsel		178. I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
Counsel		179. So fear God, and obey me.
Counsel		180. I ask of you no payment for it. My payment is only from the Lord of the Worlds.
Counsel		181. Give full measure, and do not cheat.
Counsel		182. And weigh with accurate scales.
Counsel		183. And do not defraud people of their belongings, and do not work corruption in the land.
Counsel		184. And fear Him who created you and the masses of old.”
Counsel		185. They said, “You are one of those bewitched.
Counsel		186. And you are nothing but a man like us; and we think that you are a liar.
Counsel		187. So bring down on us pieces from the sky, if you are truthful.”
Counsel		188. He said, “My Lord is Well Aware of what you do.”
Counsel		189. But they denied him. So the punishment of the day of gloom gripped them. It was the punishment of a great day.
Counsel		190. Surely in this is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
Counsel		191. Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
Counsel		192. It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.

The Ant		7. When Moses said to his family, “I have glimpsed a fire. I will bring you some news from it; or bring you a firebrand, that you may warm yourselves.”
The Ant		8. Then, when he reached it, he was called: “Blessed is He who is within the fire, and He who is around it, and glorified be God, Lord of the Worlds.
The Ant		9. O Moses, it is I, God, the Almighty, the Wise.
The Ant		10. Throw down your staff.” But when he saw it quivering, as though it were a demon, he turned around not looking back. “O Moses, do not fear; the messengers do not fear in My presence.
The Ant		11. But whoever has done wrong, and then substituted goodness in place of evil. I am Forgiving and Merciful.
The Ant		12. Put your hand inside your pocket, and it will come out white, without blemish—among nine miracles to Pharaoh and his people, for they are immoral people.”
The Ant		13. Yet when Our enlightening signs came to them, they said, “This is obvious witchcraft.”
The Ant		14. And they rejected them, although their souls were certain of them, out of wickedness and pride. So see how the outcome was for the mischief-makers.
The Ant		15. And We gave David and Solomon knowledge. They said, “Praise God, who has favored us over many of His believing servants.”
The Ant		16. And Solomon succeeded David. He said, “O people, we were taught the language of birds, and we were given from everything. This is indeed a real blessing.”
The Ant		17. To the service of Solomon were mobilized his troops of sprites, and men, and birds—all held in strict order.
The Ant		18. Until, when they came upon the Valley of Ants, an ant said, “O ants! Go into your nests, lest Solomon and his troops crush you without noticing.”
The Ant		19. He smiled and laughed at her words, and said, “My Lord, direct me to be thankful for the blessings you have bestowed upon me and upon my parents, and to do good works that please You. And admit me, by Your grace, into the company of Your virtuous servants.”
The Ant		20. Then he inspected the birds, and said, “Why do I not see the hoopoe? Or is he among the absentees?
The Ant		21. I will punish him most severely, or slay him, unless he gives me a valid excuse.”
The Ant		22. But he did not stay for long. He said, “I have learnt something you did not know. I have come to you from Sheba, with reliable information.
The Ant		23. I found a woman ruling over them, and she was given of everything, and she has a magnificent throne.
The Ant		24. I found her and her people worshiping the sun, instead of God. Satan made their conduct appear good to them, and diverted them from the path, so they are not guided.
The Ant		25. If only they would worship God, who brings to light the mysteries of the heavens and the earth, and knows what you conceal and what you reveal.
The Ant		26. God—There is no god but He, the Lord of the Sublime Throne.”
The Ant		27. He said, “We will see, whether you have spoken the truth, or whether you are a liar.
The Ant		28. Go with this letter of mine, and deliver it to them; then withdraw from them, and see how they respond.”
The Ant		29. She said, “O Counselors, a gracious letter was delivered to me.
The Ant		30. It is from Solomon, and it is, ‘In the Name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
The Ant		31. Do not defy me, and come to me submissively.’”
The Ant		32. She said, “O counselors, advise me in this matter of mine. I never make a decision unless you are present.”
The Ant		33. They said, “We are a people of might and great courage, but the decision is yours, so consider what you wish to command.”
The Ant		34. She said, “When kings enter a city, they devastate it, and subjugate its dignified people. Thus they always do.
The Ant		35. I am sending them a gift, and will see what the envoys bring back.”
The Ant		36. When he came to Solomon, he said, “Are you supplying me with money? What God has given me is better than what He has given you. It is you who delight in your gift.
The Ant		37. Go back to them. We will come upon them with troops they cannot resist; and we will expel them from there, disgraced and humiliated.”
The Ant		38. He said, “O notables, which one of you will bring me her throne before they come to me in submission?”
The Ant		39. An imp of the sprites said, “I will bring it to you before you rise from your seat. I am strong and reliable enough to do it.”
The Ant		40. He who had knowledge from the Book said, “I will bring it to you before your glance returns to you.” And when he saw it settled before him, he said, “This is from the grace of my Lord, to test me, whether I am grateful or ungrateful. He who is grateful, his gratitude is to his own credit; but he who is ungrateful—my Lord is Independent and Generous.”
The Ant		41. He said, “Disguise her throne for her, and we shall see whether she will be guided, or remains one of the misguided.”
The Ant		42. When she arrived, it was said, “Is your throne like this?” She said, “As if this is it.” “We were given knowledge before her, and we were submissive.”
The Ant		43. But she was prevented by what she worshiped besides God; she belonged to a disbelieving people.
The Ant		44. It was said to her, “Go inside the palace.” And when she saw it, she thought it was a deep pond, and she bared her legs. He said, “It is a palace paved with glass.” She said, “My Lord, I have done wrong to myself, and I have submitted with Solomon, to God, Lord of the Worlds.”
The Ant		45. And We sent to Thamood their brother Saleh: “Worship God.” But they became two disputing factions.
The Ant		46. He said, “O my people, why are you quick to do evil rather than good? If only you would seek God’s forgiveness, so that you may be shown mercy.”
The Ant		47. They said, “We consider you an ill omen, and those with you.” He said, “Your omen is with God. In fact, you are a people being tested.”
The Ant		48. In the city was a gang of nine who made mischief in the land and did no good.
The Ant		49. They said, “Swear by God to one another that we will attack him and his family by night, and then tell his guardian, 'We did not witness the murder of his family, and we are being truthful.'“
The Ant		50. They planned a plan, and We planned a plan, but they did not notice.
The Ant		51. So note the outcome of their planning; We destroyed them and their people, altogether.
The Ant		52. Here are their homes, in ruins, on account of their iniquities. Surely in this is a sign for people who know.
The Ant		53. And We saved those who believed and were pious.
The Ant		54. And Lot, when he said to his people, “Do you commit lewdness with open eyes?
The Ant		55. Do you lust after men instead of women? You are truly ignorant people.”
The Ant		56. But the only response of his people was to say, “Expel the family of Lot from your town. They are purist people.”
The Ant		57. So We saved him and his family, except for his wife, whom We destined to be among the laggards.
The Ant		58. And We rained upon them a rain. Miserable was the rain of those forewarned.

The Narrative		2. These are the Verses of the Clear Book.
The Narrative		3. We narrate to you from the history of Moses and Pharaoh—in truth—for people who believe.
The Narrative		4. Pharaoh exalted himself in the land, and divided its people into factions. He persecuted a group of them, slaughtering their sons, while sparing their daughters. He was truly a corrupter.
The Narrative		5. But We desired to favor those who were oppressed in the land, and to make them leaders, and to make them the inheritors.
The Narrative		6. And to establish them in the land; and to show Pharaoh, Hamaan, and their troops, the very thing they feared.
The Narrative		7. We inspired the mother of Moses: “Nurse him; then, when you fear for him, cast him into the river, and do not fear, nor grieve; We will return him to you, and make him one of the messengers.”
The Narrative		8. Pharaoh’s household picked him up, to be an opponent and a sorrow for them. Pharaoh, Hamaan, and their troops were sinners.
The Narrative		9. Pharaoh’s wife said, “An eye's delight for me and for you. Do not kill him; perhaps he will be useful to us, or we may adopt him as a son.” But they did not foresee.
The Narrative		10. The heart of Moses’ mother became vacant. She was about to disclose him, had We not steadied her heart, that she may remain a believer.
The Narrative		11. She said to his sister, “Trail him.” So she watched him from afar, and they were unaware.
The Narrative		12. We forbade him breastfeeding at first. So she said, “Shall I tell you about a family that can raise him for you, and will look after him?”
The Narrative		13. Thus We returned him to his mother, that she may be comforted, and not grieve, and know that God’s promise is true. But most of them do not know.
The Narrative		14. And when he reached his maturity, and became established, We gave him wisdom and knowledge. Thus do We reward the virtuous.
The Narrative		15. Once he entered the city, unnoticed by its people. He found in it two men fighting—one of his own sect, and one from his enemies. The one of his sect solicited his assistance against the one from his enemies; so Moses punched him, and put an end to him. He said, “This is of Satan's doing; he is an enemy that openly misleads.”
The Narrative		16. He said, “My Lord, I have wronged myself, so forgive me.” So He forgave him. He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.
The Narrative		17. He said, “My Lord, in as much as you have favored me, I will never be a supporter of the criminals.”
The Narrative		18. The next morning, he went about in the city, fearful and vigilant, when the man who had sought his assistance the day before was shouting out to him. Moses said to him, “You are clearly a troublemaker.”
The Narrative		19. As he was about to strike the one who was their enemy, he said, “O Moses, do you intend to kill me, as you killed someone yesterday? You only want to be a bully in the land, and do not want to be a peacemaker.”
The Narrative		20. And a man came from the farthest part of the city running. He said, “O Moses, the authorities are considering killing you, so leave; I am giving you good advice.”
The Narrative		21. So he left, fearful and vigilant. He said, “My Lord, deliver me from the wrongdoing people.”
The Narrative		22. As he headed towards Median, he said, “Perhaps my Lord will guide me to the right way.”
The Narrative		23. And when he arrived at the waters of Median, he found there a crowd of people drawing water, and he noticed two women waiting on the side. He said, “What is the matter with you?” They said, “We cannot draw water until the shepherds depart, and our father is a very old man.”
The Narrative		24. So he drew water for them, and then withdrew to the shade, and said, “My Lord, I am in dire need of whatever good you might send down to me.”
The Narrative		25. Then, one of the two women approached him, walking bashfully. She said, “My father is calling you, to reward you for drawing water for us.” And when he came to him, and told him the story, he said, “Do not fear, you have escaped from the wrongdoing people.”
The Narrative		26. One of the two women said, “Father, hire him; the best employee for you is the strong and trustworthy.”
The Narrative		27. He said, “I want to marry you to one of these two daughters of mine, provided you work for me for eight years. But if you complete ten, that is up to you. I do not intend to impose any hardship on you. You will find me, God willing, one of the righteous.”
The Narrative		28. He said, “Let this be an agreement between you and me. Whichever of the two terms I fulfill, there shall be no reprisal against me; and God is witness over what we say.”
The Narrative		29. When Moses had completed the term, and departed with his family, he noticed a fire by the side of the Mount. He said to his family, “Stay here, I have glimpsed a fire. Perhaps I can bring you some information from there, or an ember from the fire, that you may warm yourselves.”
The Narrative		30. When he reached it, he was called from the right side of the valley, at the Blessed Spot, from the bush: “O Moses, it is I, God, the Lord of the Worlds.
The Narrative		31. Throw down your staff.” And when he saw it wiggling, as if it were possessed, he turned his back to flee, and did not look back. “O Moses, come forward, and do not fear, you are perfectly safe.
The Narrative		32. Put your hand inside your pocket, and it will come out white, without blemish. And press your arm to your side, against fear. These are two proofs from your Lord, to Pharaoh and his dignitaries. They are truly sinful people.”
The Narrative		33. He said, “My Lord, I have killed one of them, and I fear they will kill me.
The Narrative		34. And my brother Aaron, he is more eloquent than me, so send him with me, to help me, and to confirm my words, for I fear they will reject me.”
The Narrative		35. He said, “We will strengthen your arm with your brother, and We will give you authority, so they will not touch you. By virtue of Our signs, you and those who follow you will be the triumphant.”
The Narrative		36. But when Moses came to them with Our signs, clear and manifest, they said, “This is nothing but fabricated magic, and We never heard of this from our ancestors of old.”
The Narrative		37. Moses said, “My Lord is well aware of him who brings guidance from Him, and him who will have the sequel of the abode. The wrongdoers will not succeed.”
The Narrative		38. Pharaoh said, “O nobles, I know of no god for you other than me. So fire-up the bricks for me O Hamaan, and build me a tower, that I may ascend to the God of Moses, though I think he is a liar.”
The Narrative		39. He and his troops acted arrogantly in the land, with no justification. They thought they would not be returned to Us.
The Narrative		40. So We seized him, and his troops, and We threw them into the sea. Observe, therefore, what was the end of the oppressors.
The Narrative		41. And We made them leaders calling to the Fire. And on Resurrection Day, they will not be saved.
The Narrative		42. And We pursued them in this world with a curse. And on Resurrection Day, they will be among the despised.
The Narrative		43. We gave Moses the Scripture after We had annihilated the previous generations; as an illumination for mankind, and guidance, and mercy, so that they may remember.
The Narrative		44. You were not on the Western Side when We decreed the command to Moses, nor were you among the witnesses.
The Narrative		45. But We established many generations, and time took its toll on them. Nor were you among the people of Median, reciting Our revelations to them. But We kept sending messengers.
The Narrative		46. Nor were you by the side of the Mount when We proclaimed. Rather, it was a mercy from your Lord, that you may warn people who received no warner before you, so that they may take heed.
The Narrative		47. Otherwise, if a calamity befell them as a result of what their hands have perpetrated, they would say, “Our Lord, if only You had sent us a messenger, we would have followed Your revelations, and been among the believers.”
The Narrative		48. But when the truth came to them from Us, they said, “If only he was given the like of what was given to Moses.” Did they not disbelieve in what was given to Moses in the past? They said, “Two works of magic backing one another.” And they said, “We are disbelieving in both.”
The Narrative		49. Say, “Then bring a scripture from God, more conductive to guidance than both, and I will follow it, if you are truthful.”
The Narrative		50. But if they fail to respond to you, know that they follow their fancies. And who is more lost than him who follows his fancy without guidance from God? God does not guide the unjust people.
The Narrative		51. We have delivered the Word to them, that they may remember.
The Narrative		52. Those to whom We gave the Scripture before it believe in it.
The Narrative		53. When it is recited to them, they say, “We have believed in it; it is the truth from our Lord; we were Muslims prior to it.”
The Narrative		54. These will be given their reward twice, because they persevered; and they counter evil with good; and from Our provisions to them, they give.
The Narrative		55. And when they hear vain talk, they avoid it, and say, “We have our deeds, and you have your deeds; peace be upon you; we do not desire the ignorant.”
The Narrative		56. You cannot guide whom you love, but God guides whom He wills, and He knows best those who are guided.
The Narrative		57. And they say, “If we follow the guidance with you, we will be snatched from our land.” Did We not establish for them a Safe Sanctuary, to which are brought all kinds of fruits, as provision from Ourselves? But most of them do not know.
The Narrative		58. And how many a city did We destroy for turning unappreciative of its livelihood? Here are their homes, uninhabited after them, except for a few. And We became the Inheritors.
The Narrative		59. Your Lord never destroys cities without first sending a messenger in their midst, reciting to them Our revelations. And We never destroy the cities, unless their people are wrongdoers.
The Narrative		60. Whatever thing you are given is but the material of this world, and its glitter. But what is with God is better, and longer lasting. Do you not comprehend?
The Narrative		61. Can someone to whom We have made a fine promise—which he will attain—be equal to someone to whom We have given enjoyments in this world, but who will be, on Resurrection Day, among the arraigned?
The Narrative		62. On the Day when He will call to them, and say, “Where are My associates whom you used to claim?”
The Narrative		63. Those against whom the sentence is justified will say, “Our Lord, these are they whom we misled. We misled them, as we were misled. We beg Your forgiveness; it was not us they used to worship.”
The Narrative		64. And it will be said, “Call on your partners.” And they will call on them, but they will not respond to them. And they will see the suffering. If only they were guided.
The Narrative		65. On the Day when He will call to them, and say, “What did you answer the Messengers?”
The Narrative		66. They will be blinded by the facts on that Day, and they will not question each other.
The Narrative		67. But he who repents, and believes, and does righteous deeds, may well be among the winners.
The Narrative		68. Your Lord creates whatever He wills, and He chooses. The choice is not theirs. Glory be to God, and exalted be He above the associations they make.
The Narrative		69. And your Lord knows what their hearts conceal, and what they reveal.
The Narrative		70. And He is God. There is no god but He. To Him belongs all praise in this life, and in the next. And His is the decision, and to Him you will be returned.
The Narrative		71. Say, “Have you considered? Had God made the night perpetual over you until the Day of Resurrection, which god other than God will bring you illumination? Do you not hear?”
The Narrative		72. Say, “Have you considered? Had God made the day perpetual over you until the Day of Resurrection, which god other than God will bring you night to rest in? Do you not see?”
The Narrative		73. It is out of His mercy that He made for you the night and the day, that you may rest in it, and seek some of His bounty; and that you may give thanks.
The Narrative		74. On the Day when He will call to them, and say, “Where are My associates whom you used to claim?”
The Narrative		75. And We will draw out from every community a witness, and say, “Produce your evidence.” Then they will realize that the truth is God’s, and those they used to invent have forsaken them.
The Narrative		76. Quaroon belonged to the clan of Moses, but he oppressed them. We had given him treasures, the keys of which would weigh down a group of strong men. His people said to him, “Do not exult; God does not love the exultant.
The Narrative		77. But seek, with what God has given you, the Home of the Hereafter, and do not neglect your share of this world. And be charitable, as God has been charitable to you. And do not seek corruption in the land. God does not like the seekers of corruption.”
The Narrative		78. He said, “I was given all this on account of knowledge I possess.” Did he not know that God destroyed many generations before him, who were stronger than he, and possessed greater riches? But the guilty will not be asked about their sins.
The Narrative		79. And he went out before his people in his splendor. Those who desired the worldly life said, “If only we possessed the likes of what Quaroon was given. He is indeed very fortunate.”
The Narrative		80. But those who were given knowledge said, “Woe to you! The reward of God is better for those who believe and do righteous deeds.” Yet none attains it except the steadfast.
The Narrative		81. So We caused the earth to cave in on him and his mansion. He had no company to save him from God, and he could not defend himself.
The Narrative		82. Those who had wished they were in his position the day before were saying, “Indeed, it is God who spreads the bounty to whomever He wills of His servants, and restricts it. Had God not been gracious to us, He would have caved in on us. No wonder the ungrateful never prosper.”
The Narrative		83. That Home of the Hereafter—We assign it for those who seek no superiority on earth, nor corruption. And the outcome is for the cautious.
The Narrative		84. Whoever brings a virtue will receive better than it. But whoever brings evil—the evildoers will be rewarded only according to what they used to do.
The Narrative		85. He Who ordained the Quran for you will return you Home. Say, “My Lord knows best who comes with guidance, and who is in manifest error.”
The Narrative		86. You did not expect the Scripture to be transmitted to you, except as mercy from your Lord. Therefore, do not be a supporter of the disbelievers.
The Narrative		87. And do not let them divert you from God’s revelations after they have been revealed to you. And pray to your Lord, and never be of the polytheists.
The Narrative		88. And do not invoke with God any other god. There is no god but He. All things perish, except His presence. His is the judgment, and to Him you will be returned.

The Spider		14. We sent Noah to his people, and He stayed among them for a thousand years minus fifty years. Then the Deluge swept them; for they were wrongdoers.
The Spider		15. But We saved him, together with the company of the Ark, and We made it a sign for all peoples.
The Spider		16. And Abraham, when he said to his people, “Worship God, and fear Him. That is better for you, if you only knew.
The Spider		17. You worship idols besides God, and you fabricate falsehoods. Those you worship, instead of God, cannot provide you with livelihood. So seek your livelihood from God, and worship Him, and thank Him. To Him you will be returned.”
The Spider		18. If you disbelieve, communities before you have also disbelieved. The Messenger is only responsible for clear transmission.
The Spider		19. Have they not seen how God originates the creation, and then reproduces it? This is easy for God.
The Spider		20. Say, “Roam the earth, and observe how He originated the creation.” Then God will bring about the next existence. God has power over all things.”
The Spider		21. He punishes whom He wills, and He grants mercy to whom He wills, and to Him you will be restored.
The Spider		22. You cannot escape, on earth or in the heaven; and you have no protector and no savior besides God.
The Spider		23. Those who disbelieved in God’s signs and His encounter—these have despaired of My mercy. For them is a painful torment.
The Spider		24. But the only response from his people was their saying, “Kill him, or burn him.” But God saved him from the fire. Surely in that are signs for people who believe.
The Spider		25. And he said, “You have chosen idols instead of God, out of affection for one another in the worldly life. But then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will disown one another, and curse one another. Your destiny is Hell, and you will have no saviors.”
The Spider		26. Then Lot believed in him, and said, “I am emigrating to my Lord. He is the Noble, the Wise.”
The Spider		27. And We granted him Isaac and Jacob, and conferred on his descendants the Prophethood and the Book, and gave him his reward in this life; and in the Hereafter he will be among the upright.
The Spider		28. And Lot, when he said to his people, “You are committing an obscenity not perpetrated before you by anyone in the whole world.
The Spider		29. You approach men, and cut off the way, and commit lewdness in your gatherings.” But the only response from his people was to say, “Bring upon us God’s punishment, if you are truthful.”
The Spider		30. He said, “My Lord, help me against the people of corruption.”
The Spider		31. And when Our envoys brought Abraham the good news, they said, “We are going to destroy the people of this town; its people are wrongdoers.”
The Spider		32. He said, “Yet Lot is in it.” They said, “We are well aware of who is in it. We will save him, and his family, except for his wife, who will remain behind.”
The Spider		33. Then, when Our envoys came to Lot, they were mistreated, and he was troubled and distressed on their account. They said, “Do not fear, nor grieve. We will save you and your family, except for your wife, who will remain behind.”
The Spider		34. “We will bring down upon the people of this town a scourge from heaven, because of their wickedness.”
The Spider		35. And We left behind a clear trace of it, for people who understand.
The Spider		36. And to Median, their brother Shuaib. He said, “O my people, worship God and anticipate the Last Day, and do not spread corruption in the land.”
The Spider		37. But they rejected him, so the tremor overtook them, and they were left motionless in their homes.
The Spider		38. And Aad and Thamood. It has become clear to you from their dwellings. Satan embellished for them their deeds, barring them from the path, even though they could see.
The Spider		39. And Quaroon, and Pharaoh, and Hamaan—Moses went to them with clear arguments, but they acted arrogantly in the land. And they could not get ahead.
The Spider		40. Each We seized by his sin. Against some We sent a sandstorm. Some were struck by the Blast. Some We caused the ground to cave in beneath them. And some We drowned. It was not God who wronged them, but it was they who wronged their own selves.

Luqman		12. We endowed Luqman with wisdom: “Give thanks to God.” Whoever is appreciative—is appreciative for the benefit of his own soul. And whoever is unappreciative—God is Sufficient and Praiseworthy.
Luqman		13. When Luqman said to his son, as he advised him, “O my son, do not associate anything with God, for idolatry is a terrible wrong.”
Luqman		14. We have entrusted the human being with the care of his parents. His mother carried him through hardship upon hardship, weaning him in two years. So give thanks to Me, and to your parents. To Me is the destination.
Luqman		15. But if they strive to have you associate with Me something of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them. But keep them company in this life, in kindness, and follow the path of him who turns to Me. Then to Me is your return; and I will inform you of what you used to do.
Luqman		16. “O my son, even if it were the weight of a mustard-seed, in a rock, or in the heavens, or on earth, God will bring it to light. God is Kind and Expert.
Luqman		17. O my son, observe the prayer, advocate righteousness, forbid evil, and be patient over what has befallen you. These are of the most honorable traits.
Luqman		18. And do not treat people with arrogance, nor walk proudly on earth. God does not love the arrogant showoffs.
Luqman		19. And moderate your stride, and lower your voice. The most repulsive of voices is the donkey’s voice.”


The Allies		7. Recall that We received a pledge from the prophets, and from you, and from Noah, and Abraham, and Moses, and Jesus son of Mary. We received from them a solemn pledge.
The Allies		8. That He may ask the sincere about their sincerity. He has prepared for the disbelievers a painful punishment.

The Saba'		15. In Sheba’s homeland there used to be a wonder: two gardens, on the right, and on the left. “Eat of your Lord’s provision, and give thanks to Him.” A good land, and a forgiving Lord.
The Saba'		16. But they turned away, so We unleashed against them the flood of the dam; and We substituted their two gardens with two gardens of bitter fruits, thorny shrubs, and meager harvest.
The Saba'		17. We thus penalized them for their ingratitude. Would We penalize any but the ungrateful?
The Saba'		18. Between them and the towns We had blessed, We placed prominent towns, and We made the travel between them easy. “Travel between them by night and day, in safety.”
The Saba'		19. But they said, “Our Lord, lengthen the distances of our journeys.” They wronged themselves; so We made them history, and We scattered them in every direction. In this are lessons for every steadfast and appreciative person.
The Saba'		20. Satan was correct in his assessment of them. They followed him, except for a group of believers.
The Saba'		21. He had no authority over them; except that We willed to distinguish him who believes in the Hereafter, from him who is doubtful about it. Your Lord is Guardian over all things.
The Saba'		22. Say, “Call upon those whom you claim besides God. They possess not an atom's weight in the heavens or the earth, and they possess no share of either, and He has no backers from among them.”
The Saba'		23. Intercession with Him is of no value, except for someone He has permitted. Until, when fear has subsided from their hearts, they will say, “What did your Lord say?” They will say, “The truth, and He is the High, the Great.”
The Saba'		24. Say, “Who provides for you from the heavens and the earth?” Say, “God. And Either you, or we, are rightly guided, or in evident error.”
The Saba'		25. Say, “You will not be asked about our misdeeds, nor will we be asked about what you do.”
The Saba'		26. Say, “Our Lord will bring us together; then He will judge between us equitably. He is the All-Knowing Judge.”
The Saba'		27. Say, “Show me those you have attached to Him as associates. No indeed! But He is God, the Powerful, the Wise.”
The Saba'		28. We sent you only universally to all people, a herald and warner, but most people do not know.
The Saba'		29. And they say, “When is this promise due, if you are truthful?”
The Saba'		30. Say, “You are promised a Day, which you cannot postpone by one hour, nor bring forward.”
The Saba'		31. Those who disbelieve say, “We will never believe in this Quran, nor in what came before it.” If you could only see the wrongdoers, captive before their Lord, throwing back allegations at one another. Those who were oppressed will say to those who were arrogant, “Were it not for you, we would have been believers.”
The Saba'		32. Those who were arrogant will say to those who were oppressed, “Was it us who turned you away from guidance when it came to you? No indeed, you yourselves were sinful.”
The Saba'		33. And those who were oppressed will say to those who were arrogant, “It was your scheming by night and day; as you instructed us to reject God, and to set up rivals to Him.” They will hide their remorse when they see the retribution. We will put yokes around the necks of those who disbelieved. Will they be repaid for anything other than what they used to do?
The Saba'		34. We sent no warner to any town, without its affluent saying, “We reject what you are sent with.”
The Saba'		35. And they say, “We have more wealth and more children, and we will not be punished.”
The Saba'		36. Say, “My Lord spreads out His bounty to whomever He wills, or restricts it; but most people do not know.”
The Saba'		37. It is neither your wealth nor your children that bring you closer to Us, but it is he who believes and does good deeds. These will have a double reward for what they did; and they will reside in the Chambers, in peace and security.
The Saba'		38. But those who work against Our revelations, seeking to undermine them—those will be summoned to the punishment.
The Saba'		39. Say, “My Lord extends the provision to whomever He wills of His servants, or withholds it. Anything you spend, He will replace it. He is the Best of providers.”
The Saba'		40. On the Day when He gathers them all together, then say to the angels, “Was it you these used to worship?”
The Saba'		41. They will say, “Be You glorified; You are our Master, not them. In fact, they used to worship the jinn, and most of them had faith in them.”
The Saba'		42. “Today, none of you has the power to profit or harm the other.” And We will say to those who did wrong, “Taste the agony of the Fire which you used to deny.”

Those Ranging in Ranks		75. And Noah called out to Us, and We are the Best of responders.
Those Ranging in Ranks		76. And We saved him and his family from the great calamity.
Those Ranging in Ranks		77. And We made his descendants the survivors.
Those Ranging in Ranks		78. And We left mention of him among those who succeeded.
Those Ranging in Ranks		79. Peace be upon Noah among all people.
Those Ranging in Ranks		80. We thus reward the righteous.
Those Ranging in Ranks		81. He was one of Our believing servants.
Those Ranging in Ranks		82. Then We drowned the others.
Those Ranging in Ranks		83. Of his kind was Abraham.
Those Ranging in Ranks		84. When he came to his Lord with a sound heart.
Those Ranging in Ranks		85. He said to his father and his people, “What are you worshiping?
Those Ranging in Ranks		86. Is it falsified gods, instead of God, that you want?
Those Ranging in Ranks		87. So what is your opinion about the Lord of the Worlds?”
Those Ranging in Ranks		88. Then he took a glance at the stars.
Those Ranging in Ranks		89. And said, “I am sick.”
Those Ranging in Ranks		90. But they turned their backs on him, and went away.
Those Ranging in Ranks		91. Then he turned to their gods, and said, “will you not eat?
Those Ranging in Ranks		92. What is it with you, that you do not speak?”
Those Ranging in Ranks		93. Then he turned on them, striking with his right hand.
Those Ranging in Ranks		94. And they came running towards him.
Those Ranging in Ranks		95. He said, “Do you worship what you carve?
Those Ranging in Ranks		96. When God created you, and what you manufacture?”
Those Ranging in Ranks		97. They said, “Build a pyre for him, and throw him into the furnace.”
Those Ranging in Ranks		98. They wished him ill, but We made them the losers.
Those Ranging in Ranks		99. He said, “I am going towards my Lord, and He will guide me.”
Those Ranging in Ranks		100. “My Lord, give me one of the righteous.”
Those Ranging in Ranks		101. So We gave him good news of a clement boy.
Those Ranging in Ranks		102. Then, when he was old enough to accompany him, he said, “O My son, I see in a dream that I am sacrificing you; see what you think.” He said, “O my Father, do as you are commanded; you will find me, God willing, one of the steadfast.”
Those Ranging in Ranks		103. Then, when they had submitted, and he put his forehead down.
Those Ranging in Ranks		104. We called out to him, “O Abraham!
Those Ranging in Ranks		105. You have fulfilled the vision.” Thus We reward the doers of good.
Those Ranging in Ranks		106. This was certainly an evident test.
Those Ranging in Ranks		107. And We redeemed him with a great sacrifice.
Those Ranging in Ranks		108. And We left with him for later generations.
Those Ranging in Ranks		109. Peace be upon Abraham.
Those Ranging in Ranks		110. Thus We reward the doers of good.
Those Ranging in Ranks		111. He was one of Our believing servants.
Those Ranging in Ranks		112. And We gave him good news of Isaac, a prophet, one of the righteous.
Those Ranging in Ranks		113. And We blessed him, and Isaac. But among their descendants are some who are righteous, and some who are clearly unjust to themselves.
Those Ranging in Ranks		114. And We blessed Moses and Aaron.
Those Ranging in Ranks		115. And We delivered them and their people from the terrible disaster.
Those Ranging in Ranks		116. And We supported them, and so they were the victors.
Those Ranging in Ranks		117. And We gave them the Clarifying Scripture.
Those Ranging in Ranks		118. And We guided them upon the straight path.
Those Ranging in Ranks		119. And We left with them for later generations.
Those Ranging in Ranks		120. Peace be upon Moses and Aaron.
Those Ranging in Ranks		121. Thus We reward the righteous.
Those Ranging in Ranks		122. They were of Our believing servants.
Those Ranging in Ranks		123. Also Elijah was one of the messengers.
Those Ranging in Ranks		124. He said to his people, “Do you not fear?
Those Ranging in Ranks		125. Do you call on Baal, and forsake the Best of creators?
Those Ranging in Ranks		126. God is your Lord, and the Lord of your ancestors.”
Those Ranging in Ranks		127. But they called him a liar, and thus they will be brought forward.
Those Ranging in Ranks		128. Except for God’s sincere servants.
Those Ranging in Ranks		129. And We left with him for later generations.
Those Ranging in Ranks		130. Peace be upon the House of Elijah.
Those Ranging in Ranks		131. Thus We reward the virtuous.
Those Ranging in Ranks		132. He was one of Our believing servants.
Those Ranging in Ranks		133. And Lot was one of the messengers.
Those Ranging in Ranks		134. We saved him and his family, all of them.
Those Ranging in Ranks		135. Except for an old woman who lagged behind.
Those Ranging in Ranks		136. Then We annihilated the others.
Those Ranging in Ranks		137. You pass by them in the morning.
Those Ranging in Ranks		138. And at night. Do you not understand?
Those Ranging in Ranks		139. And Jonah was one of the messengers.
Those Ranging in Ranks		140. When he fled to the laden boat.
Those Ranging in Ranks		141. He gambled and lost.
Those Ranging in Ranks		142. Then the fish swallowed him, and he was to blame.
Those Ranging in Ranks		143. Had he not been one of those who praised.
Those Ranging in Ranks		144. He would have stayed in its belly until the Day they are raised.
Those Ranging in Ranks		145. Then We threw him into the wilderness, and he was sick.
Those Ranging in Ranks		146. And We made a gourd tree grow over him.
Those Ranging in Ranks		147. Then We sent him to a hundred thousand, or more.
Those Ranging in Ranks		148. And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment for a while.

Sad		12. Before them the people of Noah denied the truth; as did Aad, and Pharaoh of the Stakes.
Sad		13. And Thamood, and the people of Lot, and the dwellers of the Woods—these were the confederates.
Sad		14. None of them but denied the messengers, so My retribution was deserved.
Sad		15. These can expect only a single scream, from which there is no recovery.
Sad		16. And they say, “Our Lord, hasten Your writ upon us, before the Day of Account.”
Sad		17. Be patient in the face of what they say, and mention Our servant David, the resourceful. He was obedient.
Sad		18. We committed the mountains to glorify with him, in the evening and at daybreak.
Sad		19. And the birds, gathered together. All obedient to him.
Sad		20. And We strengthened his kingdom, and gave him wisdom and decisive speech.
Sad		21. Has the story of the two disputants reached you? When they scaled the sanctuary?
Sad		22. When they entered upon David, and he was startled by them. They said, “Do not fear. Two disputants; one of us has wronged the other; so judge between us fairly, and do not be biased, and guide us to the straight way.”
Sad		23. “This brother of mine has ninety-nine ewes, and I have one ewe, and he said, ‘Entrust it to me,’ and he pressured me with words.”
Sad		24. He said, “He has done you wrong by asking your ewe in addition to his ewes. Many partners take advantage of one another, except those who believe and do good deeds, but these are so few.” David realized that We were testing him, so he sought forgiveness from his Lord, and fell down to his knees, and repented.
Sad		25. So We forgave him that. And for him is nearness to Us, and a good place of return.
Sad		26. “O David, We made you a ruler in the land, so judge between the people with justice, and do not follow desire, lest it diverts you from God’s path. Those who stray from God’s path will have a painful punishment, for having ignored the Day of Account.”
Sad		27. We did not create the heaven and the earth and everything between them in vain. That is the assumption of those who disbelieve—so woe to those who disbelieve because of the Fire.
Sad		28. Or are We to treat those who believe and do righteous deeds like those who make trouble on earth? Or are We to treat the pious like the shameless?
Sad		29. A blessed Book that We sent down to you, that they may ponder its Verses, and for those with intelligence to take heed.
Sad		30. And We granted David, Solomon, an excellent servant. He was penitent.
Sad		31. When the beautiful horses were paraded before him in the evening.
Sad		32. He said, “I have preferred the love of niceties to the remembrance of my Lord—until it disappeared behind the veil.
Sad		33. Bring them back to me.” And he began caressing their legs and necks.
Sad		34. We tested Solomon, and placed a body on his throne; then he repented.
Sad		35. He said, “My Lord, forgive me, and grant me a kingdom never to be attained by anyone after me. You are the Giver.”
Sad		36. So We placed the wind at his service, blowing gently by his command, wherever he directed.
Sad		37. And the demons—every builder and diver.
Sad		38. And others fettered in chains.
Sad		39. “This is Our gift; so give generously, or withhold; without account.”
Sad		40. For him is nearness to Us, and a beautiful resort.
Sad		41. And mention Our servant Job, when he called out to his Lord, “Satan has afflicted me with hardship and pain.”
Sad		42. “Stamp with your foot—here is cool water to wash with, and to drink.”
Sad		43. And We restored his family for him, and their like with them; as a mercy from Us, and a lesson for those who possess insight.
Sad		44. “Take with your hand a bundle, and strike with it, and do not break your oath.” We found him patient. What an excellent servant! He was obedient.
Sad		45. And mention Our servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—endowed with ability and vision.
Sad		46. We distinguished them with a distinct quality: the remembrance of the Home.
Sad		47. To Us they are among the chosen, the outstanding.
Sad		48. And mention Ishmael, Elisha, and Ezekiel; all are among the outstanding.
Sad		49. This is a reminder. The devout will have a good place of return.
Sad		50. The Gardens of Eden, with their doors wide-open for them.

The Believer		5. Before them the people of Noah rejected the truth, as did the confederates after them. Every community plotted against their messenger, to capture him. And they argued with falsehood, to defeat with it the truth. But I seized them. What a punishment it was!
The Believer		6. Thus the sentence of your Lord became realized against those who disbelieve, that they are to be inmates of the Fire.
The Believer		7. Those who carry the Throne, and those around it, glorify their Lord with praise, and believe in Him, and ask for forgiveness for those who believe: “Our Lord, You have encompassed everything in mercy and knowledge; so forgive those who repent and follow Your path, and protect them from the agony of the Blaze.
The Believer		8. And admit them, Our Lord, into the Gardens of Eternity, which You have promised them, and the righteous among their parents, and their spouses, and their offspring. You are indeed the Almighty, the Most Wise.
The Believer		9. And shield them from the evil deeds. Whomever You shield from the evil deeds, on that Day, You have had mercy on him. That is the supreme achievement.”
The Believer		10. Those who disbelieved will be addressed, “The loathing of God is greater than your loathing of yourselves—for you were invited to the faith, but you refused.”
The Believer		11. They will say, “Our Lord, you made us die twice, and twice you gave us life. Now we acknowledge our sins. Is there any way out?”
The Believer		12. That is because when God alone was called upon, you disbelieved; but when others were associated with Him, you believed. Judgment rests with God the Sublime, the Majestic.
The Believer		13. It is He who shows you His wonders, and sends down sustenance from the sky for you. But none pays heed except the repentant.
The Believer		14. So call upon God, with sincere devotion to Him, even though the disbelievers resent it.
The Believer		15. Exalted in rank, Owner of the Throne. He conveys the Spirit, by His command, upon whomever He wills of His servants, to warn of the Day of Encounter.
The Believer		16. The Day when they will emerge, nothing about them will be concealed from God. “To whom does the sovereignty belong today?” “To God, the One, the Irresistible.”
The Believer		17. On that Day, every soul will be recompensed for what it had earned. There will be no injustice on that Day. God is quick to settle accounts.
The Believer		18. And warn them of the Day of Imminence, when the hearts are at the throats, choking them. The evildoers will have no intimate friend, and no intercessor to be obeyed.
The Believer		19. He knows the deceptions of the eyes, and what the hearts conceal.
The Believer		20. God judges with justice, while those whom they invoke besides Him cannot judge with anything. It is God who is the Hearing, the Seeing.
The Believer		21. Have they not travelled through the earth, and seen the consequences for those before them? They were stronger than them, and they left more impact on earth. But God seized them for their sins, and they had no defender against God.
The Believer		22. That is because their messengers used to come to them with clear proofs, but they disbelieved, so God seized them. He is Strong, Severe in retribution.
The Believer		23. We sent Moses with Our signs, and a clear authority.
The Believer		24. To Pharaoh, Hamaan, and Quaroon. But they said, “A lying sorcerer.”
The Believer		25. Then, when he came to them with the truth from Us, they said, “Kill the sons of those who have believed with him, and spare their daughters.” But the scheming of the unbelievers can only go astray.
The Believer		26. Pharaoh said, “Leave me to kill Moses, and let him appeal to his Lord. I fear he may change your religion, or spread disorder in the land.”
The Believer		27. Moses said, “I have sought the protection of my Lord and your Lord, from every tyrant who does not believe in the Day of Account.”
The Believer		28. A believing man from Pharaoh's family, who had concealed his faith, said, “Are you going to kill a man for saying, `My Lord is God,’ and he has brought you clear proofs from your Lord? If he is a liar, his lying will rebound upon him; but if he is truthful, then some of what he promises you will befall you. God does not guide the extravagant imposter.
The Believer		29. O my people! Yours is the dominion today, supreme in the land; but who will help us against God’s might, should it fall upon us?” Pharaoh said, “I do not show you except what I see, and I do not guide you except to the path of prudence.”
The Believer		30. The one who had believed said, “O my people, I fear for you the like of the day of the confederates.
The Believer		31. Like the fate of the people of Noah, and Aad, and Thamood, and those after them. God wants no injustice for the servants.
The Believer		32. O my people, I fear for you the Day of Calling Out.
The Believer		33. The Day when you will turn and flee, having no defender against God. Whomever God misguides has no guide.”
The Believer		34. Joseph had come to you with clear revelations, but you continued to doubt what he came to you with. Until, when he perished, you said, “God will never send a messenger after him.” Thus God leads astray the outrageous skeptic.
The Believer		35. Those who argue against God’s revelations, without any proof having come to them—a heinous sin in the sight of God, and of those who believe. Thus God seals the heart of every proud bully.
The Believer		36. And Pharaoh said, “O Hamaan, build me a tower, that I may reach the pathways.
The Believer		37. The pathways of the heavens, so that I may glance at the God of Moses; though I think he is lying.” Thus Pharaoh’s evil deeds were made to appear good to him, and he was averted from the path. Pharaoh's guile was only in defeat.
The Believer		38. The one who had believed said, “O my people, follow me, and I will guide you to the path of rectitude.”
The Believer		39. “O my people, the life of this world is nothing but fleeting enjoyment, but the Hereafter is the Home of Permanence.
The Believer		40. Whoever commits a sin will be repaid only with its like. But whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, and is a believer—these will enter Paradise, where they will be provided for without account.
The Believer		41. O my people, how is it that I call you to salvation, and you call me to the Fire?
The Believer		42. You call me to reject God, and to associate with Him what I have no knowledge of, while I call you to the Mighty Forgiver.
The Believer		43. Without a doubt, what you call me to has no say in this world, or in the Hereafter; and our turning back is to God; and the transgressors are the inmates of the Fire.
The Believer		44. You will remember what I am telling you, so I commit my case to God. God is Observant of the servants.”
The Believer		45. So God protected him from the evils of their scheming, while a terrible torment besieged Pharaoh’s clan.
The Believer		46. The Fire. They will be exposed to it morning and evening. And on the Day the Hour takes place: “Admit the clan of Pharaoh to the most intense agony.”

Detailed		13. But if they turn away, say, “I have warned you of a thunderbolt, like the thunderbolt of Aad and Thamood.”
Detailed		14. Their messengers came to them, from before them and from behind them, saying, “Do not worship anyone but God.” They said, “Had our Lord willed, He would have sent down angels; Therefore, we reject what you are sent with.”
Detailed		15. As for Aad, they turned arrogant on earth, and opposed justice, and said, “Who is more powerful than us?” Have they not considered that God, who created them, is more powerful than they? And they went on denying Our revelations.
Detailed		16. So We unleashed upon them a screaming wind, for a few miserable days, to make them taste the punishment of shame in this life; but the punishment of the Hereafter is more shameful; and they will not be saved.
Detailed		17. And as for Thamood, We guided them, but they preferred blindness over guidance. So the thunderbolt of the humiliating punishment seized them, because of what they used to earn.
Detailed		18. And We saved those who believed and were righteous.

Counsel		13. He prescribed for you the same religion He enjoined upon Noah, and what We inspired to you, and what We enjoined upon Abraham, and Moses, and Jesus: “You shall uphold the religion, and be not divided therein.” As for the idolaters, what you call them to is outrageous to them. God chooses to Himself whom He wills, and He guides to Himself whoever repents.
Counsel		14. They became divided only after knowledge came to them, out of resentment among themselves. Were it not for a predetermined decision from your Lord, judgment would have been pronounced between them. Indeed, those who were made to inherit the Book after them are in grave doubt about it.
