From: Yunus 26
To: Hud 5
Verses: 89

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Those who did well will have the best reward and more besides. Neither darkness nor shame will cover their faces: these are the companions in Paradise, and there they will remain.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

As for those who did evil, each evil deed will be requited by its equal and humiliation will cover them- no one will protect them against God- as though their faces were covered with veils cut from the darkness of the night. These are the inmates of the Fire, and there they shall remain.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

On the Day We gather them all together, We shall say to those who associate partners with God, ‘Stay in your place, you and your partner-gods.’ Then We shall separate them, and their partner-gods will say, ‘It was not us you worshipped-

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

God is witness enough between us and you- we had no idea that you worshipped us.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Every soul will realize, then and there, what it did in the past. They will be returned to God, their rightful Lord, and their invented [gods] will desert them.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Say [Prophet], ‘Who provides for you from the sky and the earth? Who controls hearing and sight? Who brings forth the living from the dead and the dead from the living, and who governs everything?’ They are sure to say, ‘God.’ Then say, ‘So why do you not take heed of Him?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

That is God, your Lord, the Truth. Apart from the Truth, what is there except error? So how is it that you are dissuaded?’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

In this way, your Lord’s word about those who defy [the Truth] has been proved- they do not believe.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Ask them, ‘Can any of your partner-gods originate creation, then bring it back to life again in the end?’ Say, ‘It is God that originates creation, and then brings it back to life, so how can you be misled?’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Say, ‘Can any of your partner-gods show the way to the Truth?’ Say, ‘God shows the way to the Truth. Is someone who shows the way to the Truth more worthy to be followed, or someone who cannot find the way unless he himself is shown? What is the matter with you? How do you judge?’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Most of them follow nothing but assumptions, but assumptions can be of no value at all against the Truth: God is well aware of what they do.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Nor could this Quran have been devised by anyone other than God. It is a confirmation of what was revealed before it and an explanation of the Scripture- let there be no doubt about it- it is from the Lord of the Worlds.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Or do they say, ‘He has devised it’? Say, ‘Then produce a sura like it, and call on anyone you can beside God if you are telling the truth.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

But they are denying what they cannot comprehend- its prophecy has yet to be fulfilled for them. In the same way, those before them refused to believe- see what was the end of those evildoers!

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Some of them believe in it, and some do not: your Lord knows best those who cause corruption.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

If they do not believe you, [Prophet], say, ‘I act for myself, and you for yourselves. You are not responsible for my actions nor am I responsible for yours.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Some of them do listen to you: but can you make the deaf hear if they will not use their minds?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Some of them look at you: but can you guide the blind if they will not see?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

God does not wrong people at all- it is they who wrong themselves.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

On the Day He gathers them together, it will be as if they have stayed [in the world] no longer than a single hour, and they will recognize one another. Those who denied the meeting with God will be the losers, for they did not follow the right guidance.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
