English Translation:- ALIF LAM RA. These are the verses of the authoritative Book.

English Translation:- Are the people astonished that a man who is one of them was commanded by Us to warn them and to bring glad tidings to those who believe that they have a true precedence with their Lord? (Yet) the unbelievers say: "He is a clear sorcerer."

English Translation:- Your Lord is God who created the heavens and the earth in six spans, then assumed His power, dispensing all affairs. None can intercede with Him except by His leave. He is God, your Lord, so worship Him. Will you not be warned?

English Translation:- To Him will you all return: God's promise is true. It is He who originates creation, then will revert it, so that He may reward those who believe and do good things in all justice. But those who deny the truth will receive boiling water to drink and grievous punishment, for they disbelieved.

English Translation:- It is He who gave the sun its radiance, the moon its lustre, and appointed its stations so that you may compute years and numbers. God did not create them but with deliberation. He distinctly explains His signs for those who can understand.

English Translation:- In the alternation of night and day, and all that He has created in the heavens and the earth, are certainly signs for people who fear God.

English Translation:- As for those who do not hope to meet Us (after death), and are content with the life of this world, who are oblivious of Our signs,

English Translation:- Will have Hell as their abode for what they have earned.

English Translation:- But those who believe and act for a beneficial end will be guided by their Lord for their good faith. At their feet shall flow streams of running water in gardens of delight.

English Translation:- Their invocation will be: "All glory to you, O God," and "Peace" will be their salutation, and the end of their prayer (will be): "All praise be to God, the Lord of all the worlds."

English Translation:- If God were to hasten the evil, as men try to hasten the good, their term would come to end. So We leave those who do not expect to meet Us to wander perplexed in transgression.

English Translation:- When man is afflicted with adversity he calls to Us, whether lying on his side, or sitting or standing. But when We take away his troubles, he moves away, as though he had never called to Us in affliction. In the same way, attractive have been made their deeds to the prodigals.

English Translation:- How many generations did We lay low before you when they became wilfully unjust. Their apostles had brought clear proofs to them, yet they never believed. So We punished the sinful people.

English Translation:- Then We appointed you leaders in the land after them to see how you behaved.

English Translation:- When Our clear messages are recited to them, those who do not hope to meet Us, say: "Bring a different Qur'an, or make amendments to this one." Say: "It is not for me to change it of my will. I follow (only) what is revealed to me. If I disobey my Lord, I fear the punishment of an awful Day."

English Translation:- Say: "Had God pleased I would never have recited it to you, nor would He have given you comprehension of it. (Remember that I am one of you) and have lived a whole life with you before (its revelation). Even then you do not understand."

English Translation:- Who is more unjust than he who imputes lies to God or denies His revelations? The sinners will surely not be reprieved.

English Translation:- They worship those besides God who cannot do them harm or bring them gain, and say: "These are our intercessors with God." Say: "Do you want to inform God of things in the heavens and the earth He does not know?" Glorious is He, and too exalted for what they associate with Him!

English Translation:- Men were once a community of one faith; but they differed (and followed different ways). Had it not been for the word proclaimed by your Lord before, their differences would have been resolved.

English Translation:- They say: "How is it that no sign was sent by his Lord (to His Prophet)?" Tell them: "Unknown things are only known to God. So watch and wait (for the sign); I am waiting and expecting with you."

English Translation:- When We let them taste Our mercy after affliction, they contrive against Our signs. Say: "God is swifter at contriving," for Our angels record everything you plan.

English Translation:- It is He who enables you to travel over land and sea. When you sail in ships in a favourable breeze, you rejoice. But when a gale begins to blow and the waves dash against them from every side they realise that they have been caught in it, (and) they call on God in all faith: "If You save us from this we shall ever be grateful."

English Translation:- But when He rescues them, they commit excesses in the land unjustly again. Your rebellion, O people, shall recoil back on your own selves. The joys of the world (are only ephemeral): You have to come back to Us in the end. We shall then inform you what you were doing.

English Translation:- The life of the world is like the rain that waters the crops of the earth which are used as food by men and cattle. But when the earth is embellished and adorned with gold, and its tillers begin to feel that (the crops) are under control, Our command descends suddenly at night or in the day, and We mow them down as though there was nothing there yesterday. This is how We distinctly explain Our signs to those who think.

English Translation:- God invites you to mansions of peace, and guides whosoever He will to the path that is straight

English Translation:- For those who do good there is goodness and more, and no blot or disgrace will cover their faces. They are people of Paradise, where they will abide for ever.

English Translation:- But those who earn evil shall be punished to an equal degree as their evil, and they will be covered with shame, and will have none to protect them against God: Their faces shall be blackened as though with patches of the night. They are the people of Hell, where they will abide for ever,

English Translation:- The day We shall gather them all together We shall say to the idolaters: "Take your stand with the compeers you worshipped as the equals of God." We shall then create a rift between them, and the compeers will say: "You did not worship us;

English Translation:- For God is sufficient as witness between us and you we were not aware of your worship."

English Translation:- Then each will see what he had done in the past; and they will turn to God, their true Lord, and all the lies they had fabricated will be of no avail to them.

English Translation:- Ask them: "Who gives you food and sustenance from the skies and the earth? Or, who is the lord of ear and eye? And who brings forth the living from the dead, the dead from the living? And who directs all affairs?" They will say: "God." So tell them: "Why do you not fear Him?"

English Translation:- Such then is God, your true Lord; and when truth is gone what is left but error? So why do you turn away?

English Translation:- Thus the word of your Lord about those who disobey comes true, that they do not believe.

English Translation:- Ask them: "Is there among the partners (you ascribe to God) one who first originates then reverts it? Say: "It is God alone who first creates and then reverts it. So where do you stray?"

English Translation:- Ask: "Is there one among those you associate with God who can show the way to the truth?" Say: "It is God who shows the way to truth." Then who is more worthy of being followed -- He who guides to the truth, or he who cannot find the path until shown the way? What has happened to you that you judge in such a wise?

English Translation:- Many of them follow nothing but illusion; yet illusion cannot replace the reality. God verily knows what they do.

English Translation:- This Qur'an is not such (a writ) as could be composed by anyone but God. It confirms what has been revealed before, and is an exposition of (Heaven's) law. Without any doubt it's from the Lord of all the worlds.

English Translation:- Do they say (of the Prophet) that: "He has composed it?" Say to them: "Bring a Surah like this, and call anyone apart from God you can (to help you), if what you say is true."

English Translation:- In fact, they deny what is beyond the reach of their knowledge, whose explanation has not reached them yet. So had those who have gone before them denied; but look at the fate of the unjust

English Translation:- Some of them will believe in it, some will not. Your Lord knows the transgressors well.

English Translation:- If they (still) call you a liar, tell them: "For me my actions, for you yours. You are not answerable for my deeds, nor I for what you do."

English Translation:- Some of them listen to you: But can you make the deaf hear who do not understand a thing?

English Translation:- Some of them look toward you: But can you show the blind the way even when they cannot see?

English Translation:- Surely God does not wrong anyone; they wrong themselves.

English Translation:- The day He will gather them together it will appear to them that they had lived (in the world) but an hour of a day to make each other's acquaintance. Verily those who deny the meeting with God will be lost, and not find the way.

English Translation:- Whether We show you some of the promise (of punishment in wait) for them, or take you to Ourself, their returning is to Us in the end; and God is a witness to all they do.

English Translation:- For every people there is an apostle; and when their apostle is come the matter is decided between them equitably, and no one is wronged.

English Translation:- They say: "When is this promise going to come, if what you say is true?"

English Translation:- Say: "I have no power over my own gain or loss other than what God may please." Every people have a certain term. When their time is come they can neither delay it an hour nor advance it a moment forward.

English Translation:- Say: "Have you ever thought if His punishment befalls you at night or in the day, what would the sinners do to despatch it?

English Translation:- Will you believe it when it comes to pass? Indeed, you will believe it then. How impatient you were to hasten it!

English Translation:- Then will the sinners be told: "Now taste everlasting torment. Should you be rewarded for anything else but what you did?"

English Translation:- Yet they want to be informed if it is true. Say: "By my Lord, it is the truth. You cannot invalidate it."

English Translation:- Even if every soul that has sinned possessed whatever is on the earth, it would surely offer it to ransom itself, and feel repentant on seeing the punishment. Yet the sentence would be passed with justice, and not one will be wronged.

English Translation:- For all that is in the heavens and the earth belongs to God. Remember, the promise of God is true. But most of them do not know.

English Translation:- He is the giver of life and death, and to Him you will return.

English Translation:- O men, a warning has come to you from your Lord, a remedy for the (doubts) of the heart, and a guidance and grace for those who believe.

English Translation:- Say: "It is the blessing and mercy of God; so rejoice in it. It is better than all that you amass."

English Translation:- Say: "Have you thought of what God has sent you for food, of which you have labelled some as lawful and some forbidden?" And ask: "Has God commanded this, or you are imputing lies to God?"

English Translation:- What do those who invent lies of God think about the Day of Reckoning? (Will they escape the judgement?) In fact God is gracious to men; but most of them are not grateful.

English Translation:- There is no state you are in, whether reading from the Qur'an, or doing something else, but We are watching you as you are engaged in it. There is not the weight of an atom on the earth and in the heavens that is hidden from your Lord, nor is there anything smaller or greater than this but is recorded in the perspicuous Book.

English Translation:- Remember, there is neither fear nor regret for the friends of God.

English Translation:- Those who believe and obey God,

English Translation:- For them is good news in the life of the world and in the life to come. There is no changing the words of God. That will be the great triumph.

English Translation:- You should not be grieved by what they say. All glory is wholly for God: He is the one who hears and knows everything.

English Translation:- Remember, whosoever is in the heavens and the earth belongs to God. Those who call on others they associate with God, follow nothing but conjecture, and only guess.

English Translation:- It is He who made the night for you to rest, and made the day enlightening. Indeed there are signs in this for those who listen.

English Translation:- They say: "God has begotten a son." Immaculate is He and self-sufficient." Whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth belongs to Him. You have no proof for this (assertion): Why do you say things of God you do not know?

English Translation:- Say: "Those who fabricate lies about God will never succeed."

English Translation:- Let them profit by the world (while they may): In the end they will come back to Us. Then We shall make them taste severe punishment for having denied (the truth).

English Translation:- Recount to them the story of Noah when he said to his people: "O people, if you find my staying with you and warning through God's signs, unbearable to you, know that I have reposed my trust in God. So plan your move, and call your associates, and make certain of your plan; then do whatever you intend against me, allowing me no respite.

English Translation:- If you turn away from me (remember) I do not ask any recompense from you. My reward is with God; I have been commanded to be one of those who submit to Him."

English Translation:- Even then they denied him; so We saved him and those with him, in the ark, and established them in the land, and drowned those who denied Our signs. So think of the fate of those who were warned (and took no heed).

English Translation:- Afterwards We sent many messengers who brought clear proofs to their peoples. But they were not prepared to believe what they had once denied. That is how We seal the hearts of the iniquitous.

English Translation:- Then after them We sent Moses and Aaron with Our signs to the Pharaoh and his nobles; but they behaved arrogantly, for they were a people full of guilt.

English Translation:- Thus, when the truth had come to them from Us, they said: "Surely this is nothing but pure magic."

English Translation:- "You say this of the truth," said Moses, "after it has come to you. Is this magic? But sorcerers do not ever prosper."

English Translation:- "Have you come," said they, "to turn us back from what we found our ancestors doing, so that the two of you may attain supremacy in the land? We shall not believe in what you say.

English Translation:- "Bring the cleverest magicians to me," said the Pharaoh.

English Translation:- So when the magicians arrived, Moses said to them: "Cast whatever (spell) you have to cast."

English Translation:- When they had cast (their spell) Moses said: "What you have cast is only a charm which God will surely nullify. God does not verily render the deeds of evil-doers righteous.

English Translation:- God vindicates the truth by His commands, however the sinners may dislike it."

English Translation:- But none of them put faith in Moses except some youths among his people who were nonetheless afraid lest the Pharaoh and his nobles should persecute them; for the Pharaoh was mighty in the land, and guilty of excesses.

English Translation:- Moses said: "O my people, if you do believe in God place your trust in Him if you are obedient."

English Translation:- They answered: "We have placed our trust in God. O Lord, do not make us a target of oppression for these tyrannical people,

English Translation:- And deliver us by Your grace from a people who do not believe."

English Translation:- We commanded Moses and his brother: "Build homes for your people in Egypt, and make your houses places of worship, perform your acts of prayer and give happy tidings to those who believe."

English Translation:- And Moses said: "O Lord, have You bestowed on the Pharaoh and his nobles pomp and plenty in the life of this world that they might mislead people from Your path? Destroy their possessions, O Lord, and harden their hearts that they may not believe until they face the painful punishment."

English Translation:- Said (the Lord): "Your prayer is answered. Therefore persist and do not follow the path of those who are ignorant."

English Translation:- And We brought the people of Israel across the sea, but the Pharaoh and his army pursued them wickedly and maliciously till he was on the point of drowning, and he said: "I believe that there is no god but He in whom the people of Israel believe, and I submit to Him."

English Translation:- "Yes, now" (was the answer), "though before this you were disobedient and rebellious.

English Translation:- We shall preserve your body today that you may be a lesson for those who come after you; as many a man is heedless of Our signs."

English Translation:- We gave the people of Israel a settled abode, and bestowed good things on them to eat and use. So they did not differ until they came to have knowledge. Your Lord will assuredly settle their differences on the Day of Resurrection.

English Translation:- If you are in doubt of what We have sent down to you, then ask those who have been reading the Book (for a long time) before you. The truth has indeed come to you from your Lord, so do not be one of those who doubt,

English Translation:- And do not be one of those who deny the signs of God, or you will be among the losers.

English Translation:- Verily those against whom the word of your Lord is pronounced will never believe,

English Translation:- Even though all the signs came to them, not till they face the grievous punishment.

English Translation:- Why has there been no habitation that believed and profited by their faith, except the people of Jonah? When they came to believe, We removed from them the affliction of shame in the world, and made them prosperous for a time.

English Translation:- If your Lord had willed, all the people on the earth would have come to believe, one and all.

English Translation:- Are you going to compel the people to believe except by God's dispensation? He puts doubt in (the minds of) those who do not think.

English Translation:- Say: "Observe all there is in the heavens and the earth." But signs or warnings will be of no avail to those who do not believe.

English Translation:- Can they expect anything but what the people before them had known? Say: "Then wait. I am waiting with you."

English Translation:- Thus do We deliver our apostles and those who believe. As a matter of duty We save the believers.

English Translation:- Say: "O men, if you have doubt about my faith, then (know) I do not worship those you worship apart from God, but I worship God who makes you die; and I am commanded to be a believer,

English Translation:- And to set my face toward the way, as one upright, and not be one of those who associate others with God.

English Translation:- And not to invoke any other than God, who can neither help nor hurt me; for if I do, I would surely be unjust.

English Translation:- Should God bring you harm there is none but He who could deliver you from it, and if He wish you good there is none who could take away His blessings: He showers them on those of His creatures as He please, and He is forgiving and kind."

English Translation:- Say: "O men, the truth has come to you from your Lord, so he who follows the right path does so for himself, and he who goes astray errs against himself, and I am not a guardian over you.

English Translation:- Follow what is revealed to you, and persist until God pronounce His judgement; for He is the best of all judges."
