Ibrahim
-
In the name of God, the All-Benevolent, the Benevolent. Alif. Lam. Ra.i 1
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ الٓر -
A Scripture that We have sent down to you, so that you may bring the people out of the darknesses into the light, with the permission of their Guardian, to the path of the All-Mighty, the Praiseworthy.i 1
كِتَٰبٌ أَنزَلْنَٰهُ إِلَيْكَ لِتُخْرِجَ ٱلنَّاسَ مِنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطِ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْحَمِيدِ -
God, to whom belongs what is in the heavens and what is on the earth. 2
ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّذِى لَهُۥ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ -
And woe to those who deny, from a severe punishment —i 2
وَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلْكَٰفِرِينَ مِنْ عَذَابٍۢ شَدِيدٍ -
those who prefer the present life to the last life, who turn away from God's path and seek to make it crooked: those are the ones in deep error. 3
ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْتَحِبُّونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا عَلَى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَبْغُونَهَا عِوَجًا أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ فِى ضَلَٰلٍۭ بَعِيدٍۢ -
We have sent no envoy except in the language of his people, so that he might make [the message] clear to them; 4
وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِهِۦ لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ -
God then lets go astray whom He wills, and guides whom He wills: 4
فَيُضِلُّ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ -
He is the All-Mighty, the Wise. 4
وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ -
We have indeed sent Moussa with Our signs: "Bring your people out of the darknesses into the light, and remind them of the days of God."i 5
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مُوسَىٰ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ أَنْ أَخْرِجْ قَوْمَكَ مِنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ وَذَكِّرْهُم بِأَيَّىٰمِ ٱللَّهِ -
There are indeed in that signs for every very patient, very grateful one. 5
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍۢ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍۢ شَكُورٍۢ -
And [recall] when Moussa said to his people: "Remember God's blessing upon you, when He saved you from the people of Fir'awn, who inflicted upon you the worst punishment, slaughtering your sons and violating the honor of your women:i 6
وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوْمِهِ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَةَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ أَنجَىٰكُم مِّنْ ءَالِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوٓءَ ٱلْعَذَابِ وَيُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَآءَكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَآءَكُمْ -
and there was in that, from your Guardian, an immense trial." 6
وَفِى ذَٰلِكُم بَلَآءٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَظِيمٌۭ -
And [recall] when your Guardian made known: "If you are grateful, I shall surely increase you; but if you deny, My punishment is indeed severe."i 7
وَإِذْ تَأَذَّنَ رَبُّكُمْ لَئِن شَكَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ وَلَئِن كَفَرْتُمْ إِنَّ عَذَابِى لَشَدِيدٌۭ -
And Moussa said: "If you deny, you and all who are on the earth, God is self-sufficient, He is praiseworthy."i 8
وَقَالَ مُوسَىٰٓ إِن تَكْفُرُوٓا۟ أَنتُمْ وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًۭا فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَغَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌ -
Has there not reached you the account of those before you, the people of Nuh, of the Recidivists [Aad] and the Depleters [Thamud], and those who came after them,i 9
أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَؤُا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ قَوْمِ نُوحٍۢ وَعَادٍۢ وَثَمُودَ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ -
whom only God knows? 9
لَا يَعْلَمُهُمْ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ -
Their envoys came to them with clear proofs, but they put their hands to their mouths and said: "We deny that with which you have been sent, and we are indeed in a troubling doubt about what you call us to."i 9
جَآءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُم بِٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ فَرَدُّوٓا۟ أَيْدِيَهُمْ فِىٓ أَفْوَٰهِهِمْ وَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا كَفَرْنَا بِمَآ أُرْسِلْتُم بِهِۦ وَإِنَّا لَفِى شَكٍّۢ مِّمَّا تَدْعُونَنَآ إِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍۢ -
Their envoys said: "Is there doubt about God, the Creator of the heavens and the earth? He calls you so as to forgive you some of your wrongs and grant you a delay until an appointed term." 10
قَالَتْ رُسُلُهُمْ أَفِى ٱللَّهِ شَكٌّۭ فَاطِرِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ يَدْعُوكُمْ لِيَغْفِرَ لَكُم مِّن ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرَكُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍۢ مُّسَمًّۭى -
They said: "You are only human beings like us; you want to turn us away from what our ancestors obeyed. So bring us a manifest authority." 10
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلَّا بَشَرٌۭ مِّثْلُنَا تُرِيدُونَ أَن تَصُدُّونَا عَمَّا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ ءَابَآؤُنَا فَأْتُونَا بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ -
Their envoys said to them: "We are only human beings like you, but God bestows grace upon whom He wills among His obedient ones. 11
قَالَتْ لَهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ إِن نَّحْنُ إِلَّا بَشَرٌۭ مِّثْلُكُمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَمُنُّ عَلَىٰ مَن يَشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ -
It is not for us to bring you an authority, except with God's permission. 11
وَمَا كَانَ لَنَآ أَن نَّأْتِيَكُم بِسُلْطَٰنٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ -
So let the believers place their trust in God." 11
وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ -
And why should we not place our trust in God, when He has guided us on our paths? 12
وَمَا لَنَآ أَلَّا نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ وَقَدْ هَدَىٰنَا سُبُلَنَا -
We shall surely be patient in the face of the harm you do us; 12
وَلَنَصْبِرَنَّ عَلَىٰ مَآ ءَاذَيْتُمُونَا -
so let those who place their trust [in God] place their trust in God." 12
وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ ٱلْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ -
And those who deny said to their envoys: "We shall surely expel you from our land, or you will return to our doctrine!"i 13
وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لِرُسُلِهِمْ لَنُخْرِجَنَّكُم مِّنْ أَرْضِنَآ أَوْ لَتَعُودُنَّ فِى مِلَّتِنَا -
Their Guardian then revealed to them: "We shall surely destroy the wrongdoers, and We shall surely establish you on this land after them. 14
فَأَوْحَىٰٓ إِلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ لَنُهْلِكَنَّ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ وَلَنُسْكِنَنَّكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ -
That is for whoever fears My position, and fears My threat."i 14
ذَٰلِكَ لِمَنْ خَافَ مَقَامِى وَخَافَ وَعِيدِ -
And they [all] sought victory, 15
وَٱسْتَفْتَحُوا۟ -
and every stubborn tyrant was disappointed; behind him, Jahannam, and he will be given to drink there a purulent water, which he will gulp down without almost being able to swallow it; death will come to him from every side without his dying; and behind that, an implacable punishment.i 17
وَخَابَ كُلُّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِيدٍۢ مِّن وَرَآئِهِۦ جَهَنَّمُ وَيُسْقَىٰ مِن مَّآءٍۢ صَدِيدٍۢ يَتَجَرَّعُهُۥ وَلَا يَكَادُ يُسِيغُهُۥ وَيَأْتِيهِ ٱلْمَوْتُ مِن كُلِّ مَكَانٍۢ وَمَا هُوَ بِمَيِّتٍۢ وَمِن وَرَآئِهِۦ عَذَابٌ غَلِيظٌۭ -
The example of those who deny their Guardian:i 18
مَّثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِرَبِّهِمْ -
their deeds are like ashes that the wind whips violently, on a stormy day: they can hold on to nothing of what they earned.i 18
أَعْمَٰلُهُمْ كَرَمَادٍ ٱشْتَدَّتْ بِهِ ٱلرِّيحُ فِى يَوْمٍ عَاصِفٍۢ لَّا يَقْدِرُونَ مِمَّا كَسَبُوا۟ عَلَىٰ شَىْءٍۢ ورش قالون -
That is the deep error. 18
ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلضَّلَٰلُ ٱلْبَعِيدُ -
Have you not seen that God created the heavens and the earth with truth? 19
أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ بِٱلْحَقِّ -
If He willed, He would make you disappear and bring a new creation, 19
إِن يَشَأْ يُذْهِبْكُمْ وَيَأْتِ بِخَلْقٍۢ جَدِيدٍۢ -
and that is not at all difficult for God. 20
وَمَا ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ بِعَزِيزٍۢ -
And they will all appear before God, and the weak will say to those who were arrogant: "We were your followers; can you then be of any use to us, against God's punishment?" 21
وَبَرَزُوا۟ لِلَّهِ جَمِيعًۭا فَقَالَ ٱلضُّعَفَٰٓؤُا۟ لِلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَكْبَرُوٓا۟ إِنَّا كُنَّا لَكُمْ تَبَعًۭا فَهَلْ أَنتُم مُّغْنُونَ عَنَّا مِنْ عَذَابِ ٱللَّهِ مِن شَىْءٍۢ -
They will say: "Had God guided us, we would certainly have guided you. 21
قَالُوا۟ لَوْ هَدَىٰنَا ٱللَّهُ لَهَدَيْنَٰكُمْ -
It is the same for us, whether we are impatient or patient: we have no escape."i 21
سَوَآءٌ عَلَيْنَآ أَجَزِعْنَآ أَمْ صَبَرْنَا مَا لَنَا مِن مَّحِيصٍۢ -
And the Diverter will say, when the matter is decided: "God made you a true promise, and I made you a promise, but I betrayed you; I had no authority over you, except to call you, and you answered me. So do not blame me, but blame yourselves: I am no rescuer of yours, nor are you mine. I deny that you associated me with God before."i 22
وَقَالَ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ لَمَّا قُضِىَ ٱلْأَمْرُ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ وَعَدَكُمْ وَعْدَ ٱلْحَقِّ وَوَعَدتُّكُمْ فَأَخْلَفْتُكُمْ وَمَا كَانَ لِىَ عَلَيْكُم مِّن سُلْطَٰنٍ إِلَّآ أَن دَعَوْتُكُمْ فَٱسْتَجَبْتُمْ لِى فَلَا تَلُومُونِى وَلُومُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَكُم مَّآ أَنَا۠ بِمُصْرِخِكُمْ وَمَآ أَنتُم بِمُصْرِخِىَّ إِنِّى كَفَرْتُ بِمَآ أَشْرَكْتُمُونِ مِن قَبْلُ -
The wrongdoers will indeed have a painful punishment. 22
إِنَّ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ -
And those who believe and do righteous deeds will be admitted into gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will remain, with the permission of their Guardian. 23
وَأُدْخِلَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ جَنَّٰتٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ -
Their greeting, there, will be: "Peace!" 23
تَحِيَّتُهُمْ فِيهَا سَلَٰمٌ -
Have you not seen how God multiplies an example? A good word is like a good tree, whose root is firm and whose branches are in the sky, giving its fruit at every moment, with the permission of its Guardian.i 25
أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ ضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلًۭا كَلِمَةًۭ طَيِّبَةًۭ كَشَجَرَةٍۢ طَيِّبَةٍ أَصْلُهَا ثَابِتٌۭ وَفَرْعُهَا فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ تُؤْتِىٓ أُكُلَهَا كُلَّ حِينٍۭ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهَا -
And God multiplies the examples for the people, perhaps they will remember.i 25
وَيَضْرِبُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ -
And the example of a bad word is like a bad tree, uprooted from the surface of the earth, having no stability.i 26
وَمَثَلُ كَلِمَةٍ خَبِيثَةٍۢ كَشَجَرَةٍ خَبِيثَةٍ ٱجْتُثَّتْ مِن فَوْقِ ٱلْأَرْضِ مَا لَهَا مِن قَرَارٍۢ -
God makes firm those who believe by the firm word, in the present life and in the last life, 27
يُثَبِّتُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ بِٱلْقَوْلِ ٱلثَّابِتِ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَفِى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ -
and God lets the wrongdoers go astray, 27
وَيُضِلُّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ -
and God does what He wills. 27
وَيَفْعَلُ ٱللَّهُ مَا يَشَآءُ -
Have you not seen those who exchanged God's blessing for denial, and settled their people in the abode of ruin — Jahannam, wherein they will burn:i 29
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ بَدَّلُوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ كُفْرًۭا وَأَحَلُّوا۟ قَوْمَهُمْ دَارَ ٱلْبَوَارِ جَهَنَّمَ يَصْلَوْنَهَا -
what a detestable resting-place! 29
وَبِئْسَ ٱلْقَرَارُ -
And they assigned rivals to God, so as to mislead from His path:i 30
وَجَعَلُوا۟ لِلَّهِ أَندَادًۭا لِّيُضِلُّوا۟ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦ -
Say: "Enjoy yourselves, for your destination is the Fire." 30
قُلْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ فَإِنَّ مَصِيرَكُمْ إِلَى ٱلنَّارِ -
Tell My obedient ones who believe to maintain the Contact and to spend from what We have provided them, secretly and openly, before a day comes wherein there will be neither trade nor friendship.i 31
قُل لِّعِبَادِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يُقِيمُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَيُنفِقُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقْنَٰهُمْ سِرًّۭا وَعَلَانِيَةًۭ مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِىَ يَوْمٌۭ لَّا بَيْعٌۭ فِيهِ وَلَا خِلَٰلٌ -
God is the One who created the heavens and the earth, and who sent down from the sky a water, by which He brought forth fruits as provision for you, and He subjected for you the vessel, so that it might sail upon the sea by His command, 32
ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَأَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۭ فَأَخْرَجَ بِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ رِزْقًۭا لَّكُمْ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ ٱلْفُلْكَ لِتَجْرِىَ فِى ٱلْبَحْرِ بِأَمْرِهِۦ -
and He subjected for you the rivers. 32
وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَنْهَٰرَ -
And He subjected for you the sun and the moon, constant in their course,i 33
وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ ٱلشَّمْسَ وَٱلْقَمَرَ دَآئِبَيْنِ -
and He subjected for you the night and the day. 33
وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ -
And He gave you of everything you asked of Him; 34
وَءَاتَىٰكُم مِّن كُلِّ مَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُ -
and if you counted God's blessing, you could not enumerate it. 34
وَإِن تَعُدُّوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ لَا تُحْصُوهَآ -
The human being is indeed quite unjust, a great denier.i 34
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لَظَلُومٌۭ كَفَّارٌۭ -
And [recall] when Ibrahim said: "My Guardian, make this land a secure place, and keep me and my sons away from obeying idols.i 35
وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَٰهِيمُ رَبِّ ٱجْعَلْ هَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدَ ءَامِنًۭا وَٱجْنُبْنِى وَبَنِىَّ أَن نَّعْبُدَ ٱلْأَصْنَامَ -
My Guardian, they have led astray a great number of people. Whoever follows me is then of mine, and whoever disobeys me — You are then Most-Forgiving, full of benevolence. 36
رَبِّ إِنَّهُنَّ أَضْلَلْنَ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ فَمَن تَبِعَنِى فَإِنَّهُۥ مِنِّى وَمَنْ عَصَانِى فَإِنَّكَ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ -
Our Guardian, I have settled part of my progeny in a valley without cultivation, near Your Forbidden House,i 37
رَّبَّنَآ إِنِّىٓ أَسْكَنتُ مِن ذُرِّيَّتِى بِوَادٍ غَيْرِ ذِى زَرْعٍ عِندَ بَيْتِكَ ٱلْمُحَرَّمِ -
Our Guardian, so that they may maintain the Contact; so make consciences, among the people, incline toward them, and provide them with fruits, perhaps they will be grateful.i 37
رَبَّنَا لِيُقِيمُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ فَٱجْعَلْ أَفْـِٔدَةًۭ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ تَهْوِىٓ إِلَيْهِمْ وَٱرْزُقْهُم مِّنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَشْكُرُونَ -
Our Guardian, You indeed know what we keep hidden and what we disclose; 38
رَبَّنَآ إِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ مَا نُخْفِى وَمَا نُعْلِنُ -
and nothing escapes God, neither on earth nor in the sky. 38
وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ مِن شَىْءٍۢ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ -
Praise be to God, who has granted me, despite old age, Ismail and Ishaq!i 39
ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِى وَهَبَ لِى عَلَى ٱلْكِبَرِ إِسْمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسْحَٰقَ -
My Guardian indeed hears the call. 39
إِنَّ رَبِّى لَسَمِيعُ ٱلدُّعَآءِ -
My Guardian, make me one who maintains the Contact, and of my progeny too;i 40
رَبِّ ٱجْعَلْنِى مُقِيمَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِى -
our Guardian, and accept my call. 40
رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلْ دُعَآءِ -
Our Guardian, forgive me, and my two parents, and the believers, on the day the Reckoning stands up.i 41
رَبَّنَا ٱغْفِرْ لِى وَلِوَٰلِدَىَّ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلْحِسَابُ -
And do not ever think that God is heedless of what the wrongdoers do: 42
وَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَٰفِلًا عَمَّا يَعْمَلُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ -
He only defers them until a day when the gazes will be fixed, [people] rushing forward, heads raised, their gaze never returning to them, and their consciences will be void.i 43
إِنَّمَا يُؤَخِّرُهُمْ لِيَوْمٍۢ تَشْخَصُ فِيهِ ٱلْأَبْصَٰرُ مُهْطِعِينَ مُقْنِعِى رُءُوسِهِمْ لَا يَرْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِمْ طَرْفُهُمْ وَأَفْـِٔدَتُهُمْ هَوَآءٌۭ -
And warn the people of the day the punishment will come to them, and those who were unjust will say: "Our Guardian, grant us a delay until a near term: we will answer Your call and follow the messengers." 44
وَأَنذِرِ ٱلنَّاسَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ فَيَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ أَخِّرْنَآ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍۢ قَرِيبٍۢ نُّجِبْ دَعْوَتَكَ وَنَتَّبِعِ ٱلرُّسُلَ -
"Had you not sworn, before, that you would know no decline?i 44
أَوَلَمْ تَكُونُوٓا۟ أَقْسَمْتُم مِّن قَبْلُ مَا لَكُم مِّن زَوَالٍۢ السوسي -
And you dwelt in the abodes of those who were unjust to themselves, and it became clear to you how We dealt with them, and We multiplied the examples for you."i 45
وَسَكَنتُمْ فِى مَسَٰكِنِ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمْ كَيْفَ فَعَلْنَا بِهِمْ وَضَرَبْنَا لَكُمُ ٱلْأَمْثَالَ -
They indeed plotted their plot, 46
وَقَدْ مَكَرُوا۟ مَكْرَهُمْ -
but their plot is [known] with God, 46
وَعِندَ ٱللَّهِ مَكْرُهُمْ -
even if their plot were of a kind to make the mountains vanish. 46
وَإِن كَانَ مَكْرُهُمْ لِتَزُولَ مِنْهُ ٱلْجِبَالُ -
So do not ever think that God fails His promise to His messengers: 47
فَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مُخْلِفَ وَعْدِهِۦ رُسُلَهُۥٓ -
God is All-Mighty, Possessor of retribution. 47
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌۭ ذُو ٱنتِقَامٍۢ -
The Day the earth will be changed into another earth, and the heavens too, 48
يَوْمَ تُبَدَّلُ ٱلْأَرْضُ غَيْرَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتُ -
and they will appear before God, the One, the Subjugator. 48
وَبَرَزُوا۟ لِلَّهِ ٱلْوَٰحِدِ ٱلْقَهَّارِ -
And you will see the severed, that Day, bound together in chains, their garments of tar, and the fire covering their faces, so that God may reward every Self according to what it earned:i 51
