˹All˺ praise is ˹due˺ to Allah, who created the heavens and the earth and made the darkness and the light. Then those who disbelieve equate ˹others˺ with their Lord.

It is He who created you from clay and then decreed a term and a specified time ˹known˺ to Him; then ˹still˺ you are in dispute.

And He is Allah, ˹the only deity˺ in the heavens and the earth. He knows your secret and what you make public, and He knows that which you earn.

And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they turn away therefrom.

For they had denied the truth when it came to them, but there is going to reach them the news of what they used to ridicule.

Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them which We had established upon the earth as We have not established you? And We sent ˹rain from˺ the sky upon them in showers and made rivers flow beneath them; then We destroyed them for their sins and brought forth after them a generation of others.

ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَجَعَلَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ وَٱلنُّورَۖ ثُمَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِرَبِّهِمْ يَعْدِلُونَ

هُوَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَكُم مِّن طِينࣲ ثُمَّ قَضَىٰٓ أَجَلࣰاۖ وَأَجَلࣱ مُّسَمًّى عِندَهُۥۖ ثُمَّ أَنتُمْ تَمْتَرُونَ

وَهُوَ ٱللَّهُ فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَفِي ٱلْأَرْضِ يَعْلَمُ سِرَّكُمْ وَجَهْرَكُمْ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْسِبُونَ

وَمَا تَأْتِيهِم مِّنْ ءَايَةࣲ مِّنْ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ

فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِٱلْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَآءَهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِيهِمْ أَنۢبَٰٓؤُا۟ مَا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ

أَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن قَرْنࣲ مَّكَّنَّٰهُمْ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ مَا لَمْ نُمَكِّن لَّكُمْ وَأَرْسَلْنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ عَلَيْهِم مِّدْرَارࣰا وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرَ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهِمْ فَأَهْلَكْنَٰهُم بِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَأَنشَأْنَا مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْنًا ءَاخَرِينَ

And they say, "Why was there not sent down to him an angel?" But if We had sent down an angel, the matter would have been decided; then they would not be reprieved.

And if We had made him an angel, We would have made him ˹appear as˺ a man, and We would have covered them with that in which they cover themselves.

And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by that which they used to ridicule.

وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْلَآ أُنزِلَ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكࣱۖ وَلَوْ أَنزَلْنَا مَلَكࣰا لَّقُضِيَ ٱلْأَمْرُ ثُمَّ لَا يُنظَرُونَ

وَلَوْ جَعَلْنَٰهُ مَلَكࣰا لَّجَعَلْنَٰهُ رَجُلࣰا وَلَلَبَسْنَا عَلَيْهِم مَّا يَلْبِسُونَ

وَلَقَدِ ٱسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلࣲ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِٱلَّذِينَ سَخِرُوا۟ مِنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ

Say, "Travel through the land; then observe how was the end of the deniers."

Say, "To whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth?" Say, "To Allah." He has decreed upon Himself mercy. He will surely assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt. Those who will lose themselves ˹that Day˺ do not believe.

And to Him belongs that which reposes by night and by day, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

Say, "Is it other than Allah I should take as a protector, Creator of the heavens and the earth, while it is He who feeds and is not fed?" Say, ˹O Muhammad˺, "Indeed, I have been commanded to be the first ˹among you˺ who submit ˹to Allah˺ and ˹was commanded˺, 'Do not ever be of the polytheists.' "

Say, "Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."

He from whom it is averted that Day - ˹Allah˺ has granted him mercy. And that is the clear attainment.

And if Allah should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him. And if He touches you with good - then He is over all things competent.

And He is the subjugator over His servants. And He is the Wise, the Acquainted ˹with all˺.

قُلْ سِيرُوا۟ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ ٱنظُرُوا۟ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ

قُل لِّمَن مَّا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِۖ قُل لِّلَّهِۚ كَتَبَ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ ٱلرَّحْمَةَۚ لَيَجْمَعَنَّكُمْ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهِۚ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

۞ وَلَهُۥ مَا سَكَنَ فِي ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِۚ وَهُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

قُلْ أَغَيْرَ ٱللَّهِ أَتَّخِذُ وَلِيࣰّا فَاطِرِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَهُوَ يُطْعِمُ وَلَا يُطْعَمُۗ قُلْ إِنِّيٓ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ أَسْلَمَۖ وَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ

قُلْ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ إِنْ عَصَيْتُ رَبِّي عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمࣲ

مَّن يُصْرَفْ عَنْهُ يَوْمَئِذࣲ فَقَدْ رَحِمَهُۥۚ وَذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْمُبِينُ

وَإِن يَمْسَسْكَ ٱللَّهُ بِضُرࣲّ فَلَا كَاشِفَ لَهُۥٓ إِلَّا هُوَۖ وَإِن يَمْسَسْكَ بِخَيْرࣲ فَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءࣲ قَدِيرࣱ

وَهُوَ ٱلْقَاهِرُ فَوْقَ عِبَادِهِۦۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْخَبِيرُ

Say, "What thing is greatest in testimony?" Say, "Allah is witness between me and you. And this Qur'an was revealed to me that I may warn you thereby and whomever it reaches. Do you ˹truly˺ testify that with Allah there are other deities?" Say, "I will not testify ˹with you˺." Say, "Indeed, He is but one God, and indeed, I am free of what you associate ˹with Him˺."

Those to whom We have given the Scripture recognize it as they recognize their ˹own˺ sons. Those who will lose themselves ˹in the Hereafter˺ do not believe.

قُلْ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ أَكْبَرُ شَهَٰدَةࣰۖ قُلِ ٱللَّهُۖ شَهِيدُۢ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْۚ وَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لِأُنذِرَكُم بِهِۦ وَمَنۢ بَلَغَۚ أَئِنَّكُمْ لَتَشْهَدُونَ أَنَّ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ ءَالِهَةً أُخْرَىٰۚ قُل لَّآ أَشْهَدُۚ قُلْ إِنَّمَا هُوَ إِلَٰهࣱ وَٰحِدࣱ وَإِنَّنِي بَرِيٓءࣱ مِّمَّا تُشْرِكُونَ

ٱلَّذِينَ ءَاتَيْنَٰهُمُ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ يَعْرِفُونَهُۥ كَمَا يَعْرِفُونَ أَبْنَآءَهُمُۘ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

And who is more unjust than one who invents about Allah a lie or denies His verses? Indeed, the wrongdoers will not succeed.

And ˹mention, O Muhammad˺, the Day We will gather them all together; then We will say to those who associated others with Allah, "Where are your 'partners' that you used to claim ˹with Him˺?"

Then there will be no ˹excuse upon˺ examination except they will say, "By Allah, our Lord, we were not those who associated."

See how they will lie about themselves. And lost from them will be what they used to invent.

And among them are those who listen to you, but We have placed over their hearts coverings, lest they understand it, and in their ears deafness. And if they should see every sign, they will not believe in it. Even when they come to you arguing with you, those who disbelieve say, "This is not but legends of the former peoples."

And they prevent ˹others˺ from him and are ˹themselves˺ remote from him. And they do not destroy except themselves, but they perceive ˹it˺ not.

وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ ٱفْتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًا أَوْ كَذَّبَ بِـَٔايَٰتِهِۦٓۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُفْلِحُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ

وَيَوْمَ نَحْشُرُهُمْ جَمِيعࣰا ثُمَّ نَقُولُ لِلَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوٓا۟ أَيْنَ شُرَكَآؤُكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ كُنتُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ

ثُمَّ لَمْ تَكُن فِتْنَتُهُمْ إِلَّآ أَن قَالُوا۟ وَٱللَّهِ رَبِّنَا مَا كُنَّا مُشْرِكِينَ

ٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَذَبُوا۟ عَلَىٰٓ أَنفُسِهِمْۚ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَفْتَرُونَ

وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَۖ وَجَعَلْنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفْقَهُوهُ وَفِيٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَقْرࣰاۚ وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ كُلَّ ءَايَةࣲ لَّا يُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِهَاۖ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءُوكَ يُجَٰدِلُونَكَ يَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ

وَهُمْ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْهُ وَيَنْـَٔوْنَ عَنْهُۖ وَإِن يُهْلِكُونَ إِلَّآ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَمَا يَشْعُرُونَ

If you could but see when they are made to stand before the Fire and will say, "Oh, would that we could be returned ˹to life on earth˺ and not deny the signs of our Lord and be among the believers."

But what they concealed before has ˹now˺ appeared to them. And even if they were returned, they would return to that which they were forbidden; and indeed, they are liars.

And they say, "There is none but our worldly life, and we will not be resurrected."

If you could but see when they will be made to stand before their Lord. He will say, "Is this not the truth?" They will say, "Yes, by our Lord." He will ˹then˺ say, "So taste the punishment because you used to disbelieve."

وَلَوْ تَرَىٰٓ إِذْ وُقِفُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ فَقَالُوا۟ يَٰلَيْتَنَا نُرَدُّ وَلَا نُكَذِّبَ بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّنَا وَنَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

بَلْ بَدَا لَهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يُخْفُونَ مِن قَبْلُۖ وَلَوْ رُدُّوا۟ لَعَادُوا۟ لِمَا نُهُوا۟ عَنْهُ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ

وَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا ٱلدُّنْيَا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَبْعُوثِينَ

وَلَوْ تَرَىٰٓ إِذْ وُقِفُوا۟ عَلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْۚ قَالَ أَلَيْسَ هَٰذَا بِٱلْحَقِّۚ قَالُوا۟ بَلَىٰ وَرَبِّنَاۚ قَالَ فَذُوقُوا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْفُرُونَ
