|@ The miraculous news that the Persians will face defeat after victory 30:2-7
30:2 The Romans have been defeated (by the Persians)
# غُلِبَتِ الرُّومُ 2
30:3 in a land close by. But, in a few years after their defeat they shall become the victors.
# فِي أَدْنَى الأَرْضِ وَهُم مِّنْ بَعْدِ غَلَبِهِمْ سَيَغْلِبُونَ 3
30:4 To Allah belongs the Command before and after, and on that Day the believers will rejoice
# فِي بِضْعِ سِنِينَ لله الأَمْرُ مِن قَبْلُ وَمِنْ بَعْدُ وَيَوْمَئِذٍ يَفْرَحُ المُؤْمِنُونَ 4
30:5 in the victory of Allah. Allah gives victory to whosoever He will, and He is the Mighty, the Merciful.
# بِنَصْرِ اللَّهِ يَنصُرُ مَن يَشَاءُ وَهُوَ العَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ 5
30:6 The promise of Allah! Allah does not fail His promise, yet most people do not know.
# وَعْدَ اللَّهِ لاَ يُخْلِفُ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ 6
30:7 They know an outward part of this life, but of the Everlasting Life they are inattentive.
# يَعْلَمُونَ ظَاهِرًا مِّنَ الحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَهُمْ عَنِ الآخِرَةِ هُمْ غَافِلُونَ 7
|@ Allah does not wrong people, rather they wrong themselves 30:8-10
30:8 Have they never thought to themselves that Allah did not create the heavens and the earth and all that is between except with truth, and for a stated term? Yet most people disbelieve that they will ever meet their Lord.
# أَوَ لَمْ يَتَفَكَّرُوا فِي أَنفُسِهِم مَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِلاَّ بِالْحَقِّ وَأَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى وَإِنَّ كَثِيرًا مِّنَ النَّاسِ بِلِقَاءِ رَبِّهِمْ لَكَافِرُونَ 8
30:9 What, have they never journeyed in the land and seen what was the end of those before them? They were stronger in might than themselves, and they plowed the land and cultivated it more than they themselves have cultivated it. And to them, their Messengers came with clear signs, and Allah did not wrong them, but they wronged themselves.
# أَوَ لَمْ يَسِيرُوا فِي الأَرْضِ فَيَنظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ كَانُوا أَشَدَّ مِنْهُمْ قُوَّةً وَأَثَارُوا الأَرْضَ وَعَمَرُوهَا أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا عَمَرُوهَا وَجَاءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُم بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيَظْلِمَهُمْ وَلَكِن كَانُوا أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ 9
30:10 Evil was the end of the harm doers, because they belied the verses of Allah and mocked at them.
# ثُمَّ كَانَ عَاقِبَةَ الَّذِينَ أَسَاؤُوا السُّوأَى أَن كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَكَانُوا بِهَا يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ 10
|@ The restoration of creation 30:11
30:11 Allah originates creation, then brings it back again, then to Him you shall be returned.
# اللَّهُ يَبْدَأُ الخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُ ثُمَّ إِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ 11
|@ The Day of Judgement 30:12-16
30:12 On the Day when the Hour comes, the wrongdoers will be speechless.
# وَيَوْمَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ يُبْلِسُ المُجْرِمُونَ 12
30:13 They shall have none to intercede for them amongst their associates, and they shall disbelieve in their associates.
# وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُم مِّن شُرَكَائِهِمْ شُفَعَاءُ وَكَانُوا بِشُرَكَائِهِمْ كَافِرِينَ 13
30:14 On the Day when the Hour has come, they will be divided,
# وَيَوْمَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَتَفَرَّقُونَ 14
30:15 those who believe and did good deeds shall be well pleased in a garden,
# فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ فَهُمْ فِي رَوْضَةٍ يُحْبَرُونَ 15
30:16 but those who disbelieved and belied Our verses and the meeting of the Everlasting Life, shall be arraigned for punishment.
# وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا وَلِقَاءِ الآخِرَةِ فَأُوْلَئِكَ فِي العَذَابِ مُحْضَرُونَ 16
|@ Exalt Allah as often as you can 30:17-18
30:17 Therefore, exalt Allah when you enter the evening and in the morning.
# فَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ حِينَ تُمْسُونَ وَحِينَ تُصْبِحُونَ 17
30:18 His is the praise in the heavens and the earth, at the setting sun and at noon.
# وَلَهُ الحَمْدُ فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَعَشِيًّا وَحِينَ تُظْهِرُونَ 18
|@ The signs of Allah within ourselves 30:19-20
30:19 He brings out the living from the dead, and the dead from the living. He revives the earth after its death. Likewise you shall be brought forth.
# يُخْرِجُ الحَيَّ مِنَ المَيِّتِ وَيُخْرِجُ المَيِّتَ مِنَ الحَيِّ وَيُحْيِي الأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا وَكَذَلِكَ تُخْرَجُونَ 19
30:20 And of His signs is that He created you from dust and you became humans scattered throughout the earth.
# وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ إِذَا أَنتُم بَشَرٌ تَنتَشِرُونَ 20
|@ Relationship between husband and wives 30:21-23
30:21 And of (Allah) His signs is that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you might reside with them, and has put kindness and mercy between you. Surely, there are signs in this for those who think.
# وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا لِّتَسْكُنُوا إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ 21
30:22 And His signs are the creation of heavens and earth and the diversity of your tongues and colors. Surely, there are signs in this for all the worlds.
# وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ خَلْقُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَاخْتِلافُ أَلْسِنَتِكُمْ وَأَلْوَانِكُمْ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَاتٍ لِّلْعَالِمِينَ 22
30:23 And of His signs is that you sleep at night and day, and seek His bounty. Surely, there are signs in this for those who hear.
# وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ مَنَامُكُم بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَابْتِغَاؤُكُم مِّن فَضْلِهِ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَسْمَعُونَ 23
|@ The signs of Allah in nature 30:24-26
30:24 And of (Allah) His signs is that He shows you the lightning for fear and hope. He sends down water from the sky and with it He revives the earth after its death. Surely, in this there are signs for a nation that understand.
# وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ يُرِيكُمُ البَرْقَ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَيُنَزِّلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَيُحْيِي بِهِ الأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ 24
30:25 And of His signs is that the heaven and earth stand firm at His command. And when He calls you once out of the earth, you shall come forth.
# وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَن تَقُومَ السَّمَاءُ وَالأَرْضُ بِأَمْرِهِ ثُمَّ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ دَعْوَةً مِّنَ الأَرْضِ إِذَا أَنتُمْ تَخْرُجُونَ 25
30:26 To Him belongs whosoever is in the heavens and the earth. All are obedient to His Will.
# وَلَهُ مَن فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ كُلٌّ لَّهُ قَانِتُونَ 26
|@ The Highest Example of Allah and our own example 30:27-29
30:27 It is He who originates the creation, and then brings it back again, that is easier for Him. For Him is the Highest Example in the heavens and earth He is the Almighty, the Wise.
# وَهُوَ الَّذِي يَبْدَأُ الخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُ وَهُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَهُ المَثَلُ الأَعْلَى فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَهُوَ العَزِيزُ الحَكِيمُ 27
30:28 He sets for you an example, drawn from yourselves. Do you have from among those whom your right hand possesses associates in what We have given you, who share it equally with you? Do you fear them as you fear one another? So We made plain Our signs to a nation of understanding.
# ضَرَبَ لَكُم مَّثَلاً مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ هَل لَّكُم مِّن مَّا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُم مِّن شُرَكَاءَ فِي مَا رَزَقْنَاكُمْ فَأَنتُمْ فِيهِ سَوَاءٌ تَخَافُونَهُمْ كَخِيفَتِكُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ كَذَلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الآيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ 28
30:29 No, the wrongdoers follow their own desires without knowledge. And who can guide those whom Allah has led astray? There shall be none to help them.
# بَلِ اتَّبَعَ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا أَهْوَاءَهُم بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ فَمَن يَهْدِي مَنْ أَضَلَّ اللَّهُ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن نَّاصِرِينَ 29
|@ Islam is the valuable religion 30:30-32
30:30 Therefore set your face to the religion purely, the upright creation upon which He originated people. There is no changing of the creation of Allah. This is the valuable religion, although most people do not know –
# فَأَقِمْ وَجْهَكَ لِلدِّينِ حَنِيفًا فِطْرَةَ اللَّهِ الَتِي فَطَرَ النَّاسَ عَلَيْهَا لاَ تَبْدِيلَ لِخَلْقِ اللَّهِ ذَلِكَ الدِّينُ القَيِّمُ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ 30
30:31 turning to Him. And fear Him, establish the prayer and do not be of the idolaters,
# مُنِيبِينَ إِلَيْهِ وَاتَّقُوهُ وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلاةَ وَلاَ تَكُونُوا مِنَ المُشْرِكِينَ 31
30:32 those who have divided their religion, and become sects, each rejoicing in what they have.
# مِنَ الَّذِينَ فَرَّقُوا دِينَهُم وَكَانُوا شِيَعًا كُلُّّ حِزْبٍ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ فَرِحُونَ 32
|@ Ingratitude for the Mercy of Allah 30:33-37
30:33 When affliction befalls mankind they turn to Him calling their Lord in prayer, but when He lets them taste His Mercy, some of them assign associates to their Lord,
# وَإِذَا مَسَّ النَّاسَ ضُرٌّ دَعَوْا رَبَّهُم مُّنِيبِينَ إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ إِذَا أَذَاقَهُم مِّنْهُ رَحْمَةً إِذَا فَرِيقٌ مِّنْهُم بِرَبِّهِمْ يُشْرِكُونَ 33
30:34 disbelieving in what We have given them. Enjoy, but you shall soon know.
# لِيَكْفُرُوا بِمَا آتَيْنَاهُمْ فَتَمَتَّعُوا فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ 34
30:35 Or have We sent down to them an authority that speaks of that they associate with Him?
# أَمْ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ سُلْطَانًا فَهُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِمَا كَانُوا بِهِ يُشْرِكُونَ 35
30:36 When We give people a taste of mercy, they rejoice in it, but when evil befalls them through the forwarding of their own hands, they become despondent.
# وَإِذَا أَذَقْنَا النَّاسَ رَحْمَةً فَرِحُوا بِهَا وَإِن تُصِبْهُمْ سَيِّئَةٌ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ إِذَا هُمْ يَقْنَطُونَ 36
30:37 Do they not see that Allah outspreads and restricts His provision to whom He will? Surely, there are signs in this for those who believe.
# أَوَ لَمْ يَرَوْا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَن يَشَاءُ وَيَقْدِرُ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ 37
|@ The blessings of charity 30:38
30:38 And give to the kinsman his due, and to the needy, and to the destitute traveler. That is best for those who desire the Face of Allah; such will surely prosper.
# فَآتِ ذَا القُرْبَى حَقَّهُ وَالْمِسْكِينَ وَابْنَ السَّبِيلِ ذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ لِّلَّذِينَ يُريدُونَ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ وَأُوْلَئِكَ هُمُ المُفْلِحُونَ 38
|@ Usury and charity 30:39
30:39 That which you give in usury so that it increases in other people’s wealth, will not increase with Allah; but the charity you give desiring the Face of Allah, to those, they shall be recompensed many times over.
# وَمَا آتَيْتُم مِّن رِّبًا لِّيَرْبُوَ فِي أَمْوَالِ النَّاسِ فَلاَ يَرْبُو عِندَ اللَّهِ وَمَا آتَيْتُم مِّن زَكَاةٍ تُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ فَأُوْلَئِكَ هُمُ المُضْعِفُونَ 39
|@ No one except Allah can cause you to die and then revive you 30:40
30:40 It is Allah who has created you and given you your provision. He will cause you to die, and will then revive you. Can any of your associates do any of that? Exalted is He above what they associate.
# اللًّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ رَزَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيكُمْ هَلْ مِن شُرَكَائِكُم مَّن يَفْعَلُ مِن ذَلِكُم مِّن شَيْءٍ سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى عَمَّا يُشرِكُونَ 40
|@ Corruption 30:41
30:41 Corruption has appeared on land and sea with what the hands of the people earned. Therefore, they taste some of what they did in order that they return.
# ظَهَرَ الفَسَادُ فِي البَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ أَيْدِي النَّاسِ لِيُذِيقَهُم بَعْضَ الَّذِي عَمِلُوا لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ 41
|@ It isn’t “mother nature”, they are the signs and warnings of Allah for present and future generations 30:42-45
30:42 Say, ‘Journey in the land and see what was the end of those who were before you. Most of them were idolaters.’
# قُلْ سِيرُوا فِي الأَرْضِ فَانظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلُ كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّشْرِكِينَ 42
30:43 Therefore in purity set your face to the religion, before there comes from Allah a Day that cannot be turned back. On that Day mankind will be separated.
# فَأَقِمْ وَجْهَكَ لِلدِّينِ القَيِّمِ مِن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِيَ يَوْمٌ لاَّ مَرَدَّ لَهُ مِنَ اللَّهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَصَّدَّعُونَ 43
30:44 Those who disbelieve will be charged for their disbelief, while the righteous are making provision for themselves
# مَن كَفَرَ فَعَلَيْهِ كُفْرُهُ وَمَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَلأَنفُسِهِمْ يَمْهَدُونَ 44
30:45 so that He will recompense those who believe and do righteous deeds from His bounty. He does not love the unbelievers.
# لِيَجْزِيَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ مِن فَضْلِهِ إِنَّهُ لاَ يُحِبُّ الكَافِرِينَ 45
|@ The signs of Allah in the winds and clouds, and the earth 30:46-51
30:46 And of His signs is that He looses the winds as bearers of glad tidings, so that He lets you taste His Mercy and that the ships may sail at His command in order that you can seek His bounty and be thankful.
# وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَن يُرْسِلَ الرِّيَاحَ مُبَشِّرَاتٍ وَلِيُذِيقَكُم مِّن رَّحْمَتِهِ وَلِتَجْرِيَ الفُلْكُ بِأَمْرِهِ وَلِتَبْتَغُوا مِن فَضْلِهِ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ 46
30:47 Before you We sent other Messengers to their people; and they came with clear signs. We took revenge upon the sinners, and it was an incumbent duty upon Us to give victory to the believers.
# وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ رُسُلاً إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ فَجَاءُوهُم بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَانتَقَمْنَا مِنَ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا وَكَانَ حَقًّا عَلَيْنَا نَصْرُ المُؤْمِنِينَ 47
30:48 It is Allah who looses the winds that stir the clouds. He spreads them as He will in heaven and disperses them, so that you can see the rain falling from their midst. When He smites with it whom He will of His worshipers they rejoice,
# اللَّهُ الَّذِي يُرْسِلُ الرِّيَاحَ فَتُثِيرُ سَحَابًا فَيَبْسُطُهُ فِي السَّمَاءِ كَيْفَ يَشَاءُ وَيَجْعَلُهُ كِسَفًا فَتَرَى الوَدْقَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ خِلالِهِ فَإِذَا أَصَابَ بِهِ مَن يَشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ إِذَا هُمْ يَسْتَبْشِرُونَ 48
30:49 though before its coming they had despaired.
# وَإِن كَانُوا مِن قَبْلِ أَن يُنَزَّلَ عَلَيْهِم مِّن قَبْلِهِ لَمُبْلِسِينَ 49
30:50 Look then at the marks of the Mercy of Allah; how He revives the earth after its death. He is the Reviver of the dead. He has power over all things.
# فَانظُرْ إِلَى آثَارِ رَحْمةِ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ يُحْيِي الأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَمُحْيِي المَوْتَى وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيٍْ قَدِيرٌ 50
30:51 Yet if We sent a wind so they see it yellow, indeed after that they would still be unbelievers.
# وَلَئِنْ أَرْسَلْنَا رِيحًا فَرَأَوْهُ مُصْفَرًّا لَّظَلُّوا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ يَكْفُرُونَ 51
|@ Guidance and error 30:52-54
30:52 You cannot make the dead hear you, nor can you make the deaf hear the call when they retreat, turning about.
# فَإِنَّكَ لاَ تُسْمِعُ المَوْتَى وَلاَ تُسْمِعُ الصُّمَّ الدُّعَاءَ إِذَا وَلَّوْا مُدْبِرِينَ 52
30:53 You cannot guide the blind out of their error. Nor shall you make any to hear except those who believe in Our verses, and are submissive.
# وَمَا أَنْتَ بِهَادِ العُمْيِ عَن ضَلالَتِهِمْ إِن تُسْمِعُ إِلاَّ مَن يُؤْمِنُ بِآيَاتِنَا فَهُم مُّسْلِمُونَ 53
30:54 Allah creates you weak; after weakness He gives you strength and after strength weakness and gray hairs. He creates whatever He will. He is the Knower, the Capable.
# اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُم مِّن ضَعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ضَعْفٍ قُوَّةً ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ ضَعْفًا وَشَيْبَةً يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاءُ وَهُوَ العَلِيمُ القَدِيرُ 54
|@ The Day of Resurrection 30:55-57
30:55 Upon the Day when the Hour has come, the harm doers will swear that they had stayed no more than an hour. As such they are deceived.
# وَيَوْمَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ يُقْسِمُ المُجْرِمُونَ مَا لَبِثُوا غَيْرَ سَاعَةٍ كَذَلِكَ كَانُوا يُؤْفَكُونَ 55
30:56 But those to whom knowledge and belief have been given will say, ‘You have stayed in the Book of Allah (the Protected Tablets) till the Day of Resurrection. This is the Day of Resurrection, yet you did not know.’
# وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا العِلْمَ وَالإِيمَانَ لَقَدْ لَبِثْتُمْ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ البَعْثِ فَهَذَا يَوْمُ البَعْثِ وَلَكِنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ 56
30:57 On that Day, excuses shall not benefit the harm doers, nor shall they be asked to make amends.
# فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لاَّ يَنفَعُ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا مَعْذِرَتُهُمْ وَلاَ هُمْ يُسْتَعْتَبُونَ 57
|@ The promise of Allah is true 30:58-60
30:58 In this Koran We have set forth for mankind all manner of examples. Yet if you bring to them a sign the unbelievers will surely say, ‘You are but falsifiers.’
# وَلَقَدْ ضَرَبْنَا لِلنَّاسِ فِي هَذَا القُرْآنِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٍ وَلَئِن جِئْتَهُم بِآيَةٍ لَّيَقُولَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلاَّ مُبْطِلُونَ 58
30:59 As such Allah seals the hearts of those who do not know.
# كَذَلِكَ يَطْبَعُ اللَّهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِ الَّذِينَ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ 59
30:60 Therefore, have patience. The promise of Allah is true. Do not let those who are uncertain make you unsteady.

# وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن يَشْتَرِي لَهْوَ الحَدِيثِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّخِذَهَا هُزُواً أُوْلَئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ 6
31:7 When Our verses are recited to him, he turns his back in pride, as though he never heard them, and in his ears was heaviness. Give glad tidings to him of a painful punishment!
# وَإِذَا تُتْلَى عَلَيْهِ آيَاتُنَا وَلَّى مُسْتَكْبِراً كَأَن لَّمْ يَسْمَعْهَا كَأَنَّ فِي أُذُنَيْهِ وَقْراً فَبَشِّرْهُ بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ 7
|@ The people of Paradise 31:8-9
31:8 But for those who believe and do good works are Gardens of Bliss,
# إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتُ النَّعِيمِ 8
31:9 where they shall live for ever. The promise of Allah is the truth; He is the Almighty, the Wise.
# خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا وَعْدَ اللَّهِ حَقاًّ وَهُوَ العَزِيزُ الحَكِيمُ 9
|@ The Creator and His creation 31:10-11
31:10 He created the heavens without pillars that you see and cast on the earth firm mountains lest it should shake with you. Upon it He dispersed all manner of crawling thing, and He sent down water from the sky with which He caused to grow in it every generous kind.
# خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ بِغَيْرِ عَمَدٍ تَرَوْنَهَا وَأَلْقَى فِي الأَرْضِ رَوَاسِيَ أَن تَمِيدَ بِكُمْ وَبَثَّ فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَأَنْبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوْجٍ كَرِيمٍ 10
31:11 Such is the creation of Allah; now show me what, other than Him, created! No, the harm doers are in clear error.
# هَذَا خَلْقُ اللَّهِ فَأَرُونِي مَاذَا خَلَقَ الَّذِينَ مِن دُونِهِ بَلِ الظَّالِمُونَ فِي ضَلالٍ مُّبِينٍ 11
|@ The story of Lokman and the advice he gave his son 31:12-13
31:12 We gave wisdom to Lokman (saying), ‘Give thanks to Allah. He who gives thanks, thanks only for himself, but whosoever is ungrateful, surely, Allah is the Rich, the Praised.’
# وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا لُقْمَانَ الحِكْمَةَ أَنِ اشْكُرْ لِلَّهِ وَمَن يَشْكُرْ فَإِنَّمَا يَشْكُرُ لِنَفْسِهِ وَمَن كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ حَمِيدٌ 12
31:13 And when Lokman said to his son, in warning, ‘My son, associate none with Allah, to associate others with Allah is a tremendous wrong.’
# وَإِذْ قَالَ لُقْمَانُ لابْنِهِ وَهُوَ يَعِظُهُ يَا بُنَيَّ لاَ تُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّ الشِّرْكَ لَظُلْمٌ عَظِيمٌ 13
|@ Be kind and grateful to your mother but do not follow your parents in disbelief 31:14-15
31:14 And We enjoined the human concerning his parents, for his mother bore him in weakness upon weakness, and his weaning was in two years. Be thankful to Me and to your parents, to Me is the arrival.
# وَوَصَّيْنَا الإِنسَانَ بِوَالِدَيْهِ حَمَلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَهْناً عَلَى وَهْنٍ وَفِصَالُهُ فِي عَامَيْنِ أَنِ اشْكُرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيْكَ إِلَيَّ المَصِيرُ 14
31:15 But if they strive with you to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them. And accompany them in this life with kindness; and follow the Path of he who turned to Me. To Me you shall return and I will inform you of all that you have done.
# وَإِن جَاهَدَاكَ عَلَى أَن تُشْرِكَ بِي مَا لَيْسَ لَكَ بِهِ عِلْمٌ فَلاَ تُطِعْهُمَا وَصَاحِبْهُمَا فِي الدُّنْيَا مَعْرُوفاً وَاتَّبِعْ سَبِيلَ مَنْ أَنَابَ إِلَيَّ ثُمَّ إِلَيَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَأُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ 15
