| Sura 15 Aya 1 to 99 | |||
| 1 | [ 15: 1 ] Alif Lam Ra. These are the verses of the Book and ( of ) a Quran that makes ( things ) clear. | ||
| 2 | [ 15: 2 ] Often will those who disbelieve wish that they had been Muslims. | ||
| 3 | [ 15: 3 ] Leave them that they may eat and enjoy themselves and ( that ) hope may beguile them, for they will soon know. | ||
| 4 | [ 15: 4 ] And never did We destroy a town but it had a term made known. | ||
| 5 | [ 15: 5 ] No people can hasten on their doom nor can they postpone ( it ). | ||
| 6 | [ 15: 6 ] And they say: O you to whom the Reminder has been revealed! you are most surely insane: | ||
| 7 | [ 15: 7 ] Why do you not bring to us the angels if you are of the truthful ones? | ||
| 8 | [ 15: 8 ] We do not send the angels but with truth, and then they would not be respited. | ||
| 9 | [ 15: 9 ] Surely We have revealed the Reminder and We will most surely be its guardian. | ||
| 10 | [ 15: 10 ] And certainly We sent ( messengers ) before you among the nations of yore. | ||
| 11 | [ 15: 11 ] And there never came a messenger to them but they mocked him. | ||
| 12 | [ 15: 12 ] Thus do We make it to enter into the hearts of the guilty; | ||
| 13 | [ 15: 13 ] They do not believe in it, and indeed the example of the former people has already passed. | ||
| 14 | [ 15: 14 ] And even if We open to them a gateway of heaven, so that they ascend into it all the while, | ||
| 15 | [ 15: 15 ] They would certainly say: Only our eyes have been covered over, rather we are an enchanted people. | ||
| 16 | [ 15: 16 ] And certainly We have made strongholds in the heaven and We have made it fair seeming to the beholders. | ||
| 17 | [ 15: 17 ] And We guard it against every accursed Shaitan, | ||
| 18 | [ 15: 18 ] But he who steals a hearing, so there follows him a visible flame. | ||
| 19 | [ 15: 19 ] And the earth-- We have spread it forth and made in it firm mountains and caused to grow in it of every suitable thing. | ||
| 20 | [ 15: 20 ] And We have made in it means of subsistence for you and for him for whom you are not the suppliers. | ||
| 21 | [ 15: 21 ] And there is not a thing but with Us are the treasures of it, and We do not send it down but in a known measure. | ||
| 22 | [ 15: 22 ] And We send the winds fertilizing, then send down water from the cloud so We give it to you to drink of, nor is it you who store it up. | ||
| 23 | [ 15: 23 ] And most surely We bring to life and cause to die and We are the heirs. | ||
| 24 | [ 15: 24 ] And certainly We know those of you who have gone before and We certainly know those who shall come later. | ||
| 25 | [ 15: 25 ] And surely your Lord will gather them together; surely He is Wise, Knowing. | ||
| 26 | [ 15: 26 ] And certainly We created man of clay that gives forth sound, of black mud fashioned in shape. | ||
| 27 | [ 15: 27 ] And the jinn We created before, of intensely hot fire. | ||
| 28 | [ 15: 28 ] And when your Lord said to the angels: Surely I am going to create a mortal of the essence of black mud fashioned in shape. | ||
| 29 | [ 15: 29 ] So when I have made him complete and breathed into him of My spirit, fall down making obeisance to him. | ||
| 30 | [ 15: 30 ] So the angels made obeisance, all of them together, | ||
| 31 | [ 15: 31 ] But Iblis ( did it not ); he refused to be with those who made obeisance. | ||
| 32 | [ 15: 32 ] He said: O Iblis! what excuse have you that you are not with those who make obeisance? | ||
| 33 | [ 15: 33 ] He said: I am not such that I should make obeisance to a mortal whom Thou hast created of the essence of black mud fashioned in shape. | ||
| 34 | [ 15: 34 ] He said: Then get out of it, for surely you are driven away: | ||
| 35 | [ 15: 35 ] And surely on you is curse until the day of judgment. | ||
| 36 | [ 15: 36 ] He said: My Lord! then respite me till the time when they are raised. | ||
| 37 | [ 15: 37 ] He said: So surely you are of the respited ones | ||
| 38 | [ 15: 38 ] Till the period of the time made known. | ||
| 39 | [ 15: 39 ] He said: My Lord! because Thou hast made life evil to me, I will certainly make ( evil ) fair-seeming to them on earth, and I will certainly cause them all to deviate | ||
| 40 | [ 15: 40 ] Except Thy servants from among them, the devoted ones. | ||
| 41 | [ 15: 41 ] He said: This is a right way with Me: | ||
| 42 | [ 15: 42 ] Surely. as regards My servants, you have no authority, over them except those who follow you of the deviators. | ||
| 43 | [ 15: 43 ] And surely Hell is the promised place of them all: | ||
| 44 | [ 15: 44 ] It has seven gates; for every gate there shall be a separate party of them. | ||
| 45 | [ 15: 45 ] Surely those who guard ( against evil ) shall be in the midst of gardens and fountains: | ||
| 46 | [ 15: 46 ] Enter them in peace, secure. | ||
| 47 | [ 15: 47 ] And We will root out whatever of rancor is in their breasts-- ( they shall be ) as brethren, on raised couches, face to face. | ||
| 48 | [ 15: 48 ] Toil shall not afflict them in it, nor shall they be ever ejected from it. | ||
| 49 | [ 15: 49 ] Inform My servants that I am the Forgiving, the Merciful, | ||
| 50 | [ 15: 50 ] And that My punishment-- that is the painful punishment. | ||
| 51 | [ 15: 51 ] And inform them of the guests of Ibrahim: | ||
| 52 | [ 15: 52 ] When they entered upon him, they said, Peace. He said: Surely we are afraid of you. | ||
| 53 | [ 15: 53 ] They said: Be not afraid, surely we give you the good news of a boy, possessing knowledge. | ||
| 54 | [ 15: 54 ] He said: Do you give me good news ( of a son ) when old age has come upon me? -- Of what then do you give me good news! | ||
| 55 | [ 15: 55 ] They said: We give you good news with truth, therefore be not of the despairing. | ||
| 56 | [ 15: 56 ] He said: And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord but the erring ones? | ||
| 57 | [ 15: 57 ] He said: What is your business then, O messengers? | ||
| 58 | [ 15: 58 ] They said: Surely we are sent towards a guilty people, | ||
| 59 | [ 15: 59 ] Except Lut's followers: We will most surely deliver them all, | ||
| 60 | [ 15: 60 ] Except his wife; We ordained that she shall surely be of those who remain behind. | ||
| 61 | [ 15: 61 ] So when the messengers came to Lut's followers, | ||
| 62 | [ 15: 62 ] He said: Surely you are an unknown people. | ||
| 63 | [ 15: 63 ] They said: Nay, we have come to you with that about which they disputed. | ||
| 64 | [ 15: 64 ] And we have come to you with the truth, and we are most surely truthful. | ||
| 65 | [ 15: 65 ] Therefore go forth with your followers in a part of the night and yourself follow their rear, and let not any one of you turn round, and go forth whither you are commanded. | ||
| 66 | [ 15: 66 ] And We revealed to him this decree, that the roots of these shall be cut off in the morning. | ||
| 67 | [ 15: 67 ] And the people of the town came rejoicing. | ||
| 68 | [ 15: 68 ] He said: Surely these are my guests, therefore do not disgrace me, | ||
| 69 | [ 15: 69 ] And guard against ( the punishment of ) Allah and do not put me to shame. | ||
| 70 | [ 15: 70 ] They said: Have we not forbidden you from ( other ) people? | ||
| 71 | [ 15: 71 ] He said: These are my daughters, if you will do ( aught ). | ||
| 72 | [ 15: 72 ] By your life! they were blindly wandering on in their intoxication. | ||
| 73 | [ 15: 73 ] So the rumbling overtook them ( while ) entering upon the time of sunrise; | ||
| 74 | [ 15: 74 ] Thus did We turn it upside down, and rained down upon them stones of what had been decreed. | ||
| 75 | [ 15: 75 ] Surely in this are signs for those who examine. | ||
| 76 | [ 15: 76 ] And surely it is on a road that still abides. | ||
| 77 | [ 15: 77 ] Most surely there is a sign in this for the believers. | ||
| 78 | [ 15: 78 ] And the dwellers of the thicket also were most surely unjust. | ||
| 79 | [ 15: 79 ] So We inflicted retribution on them, and they are both, indeed, on an open road ( still ) pursued. | ||
| 80 | [ 15: 80 ] And the dwellers of the Rock certainly rejected the messengers; | ||
| 81 | [ 15: 81 ] And We gave them Our communications, but they turned aside from them; | ||
| 82 | [ 15: 82 ] And they hewed houses in the mountains in security. | ||
| 83 | [ 15: 83 ] So the rumbling overtook them in the morning; | ||
| 84 | [ 15: 84 ] And what they earned did not avail them. | ||
| 85 | [ 15: 85 ] And We did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them two but in truth; and the hour is most surely coming, so turn away with kindly forgiveness. | ||
| 86 | [ 15: 86 ] Surely your Lord is the Creator of all things, the Knowing. | ||
| 87 | [ 15: 87 ] And certainly We have given you seven of the oft-repeated ( verses ) and the grand Quran. | ||
| 88 | [ 15: 88 ] Do not strain your eyes after what We have given certain classes of them to enjoy, and do not grieve for them, and make yourself gentle to the believers. | ||
| 89 | [ 15: 89 ] And say: Surely I am the plain warner. | ||
| 90 | [ 15: 90 ] Like as We sent down on the dividers | ||
| 91 | [ 15: 91 ] Those who made the Quran into shreds. | ||
| 92 | [ 15: 92 ] So, by your Lord, We would most certainly question them all, | ||
| 93 | [ 15: 93 ] As to what they did. | ||
| 94 | [ 15: 94 ] Therefore declare openly what you are bidden and turn aside from the polytheists. | ||
| 95 | [ 15: 95 ] Surely We will suffice you against the scoffers | ||
| 96 | [ 15: 96 ] Those who set up another god with Allah; so they shall soon know. | ||
| 97 | [ 15: 97 ] And surely We know that your breast straitens at what they say; | ||
| 98 | [ 15: 98 ] Therefore celebrate the praise of your Lord, and be of those who make obeisance. | ||
| 99 | [ 15: 99 ] And serve your Lord until there comes to you that which is certain. | ||
