بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

they will have well-matched [wives] with modest gaze.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

‘This is what you are promised for the Day of Reckoning:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Our provision for you will never end.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

But the evildoers will have the worst place to return to:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Hell to burn in, an evil place to stay-

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

all this will be theirs: let them taste it- a scalding, dark, foul fluid,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

and other such torments.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

[It will be said], ‘Here is another crowd of people rushing headlong to join you.’ [The response will be], ‘They are not welcome! They will burn in the Fire.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

They will say to them, ‘You are not welcome! It was you who brought this on us, an evil place to stay,’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

adding, ‘Our Lord, give double punishment to those who brought this upon us.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

They will say, ‘Why do we not see those we thought were bad

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

and took as a laughing-stock? Have our eyes missed them?’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

This is how it will really be: the inhabitants of the Fire will blame one another in this way.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

[Prophet] say, ‘I am only here to give warning. There is no god but God the One, the All Powerful,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Lord of the heavens and earth and everything between, the Almighty, the Most Forgiving.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Say, ‘This message is a mighty one,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

yet you ignore it.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

I have no knowledge of what those on high discuss:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

it is only revealed to me that I am here to give clear warning.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Your Lord said to the angels, ‘I will create a man from clay.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

When I have shaped him and breathed from My Spirit into him, bow down before him.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

The angels all bowed down together,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

but not Iblis, who was too proud. He became a rebel.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

God said, ‘Iblis, what prevents you from bowing down to the man I have made with My own hands? Are you too high and mighty?’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Iblis said, ‘I am better than him: You made me from fire, and him from clay.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

‘Get out of here! You are rejected:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

My rejection will follow you till the Day of Judgement!’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

but Iblis said, ‘My Lord, grant me respite until the Day when they are raised from the dead,’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

so He said, ‘You have respite

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

till the Appointed Day.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Iblis said, ‘I swear by Your might! I will tempt all

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

but Your true servants.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

God said, ‘This is the truth- I speak only the truth-

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

I will fill Hell with you and all those that follow you.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

[Prophet], say, ‘I ask no reward from you for this, nor do I claim to be what I am not:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

this is only a warning for all people.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

In time you will certainly come to know its truth.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

This Scripture is sent down from God the Mighty, the Wise.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

It is We who sent down the Scripture to you [Prophet] with the Truth, so worship God with your total devotion:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

true devotion is due to God alone. [As for] those who choose other protectors beside Him, saying, ‘We only worship them because they bring us nearer to God,’ God Himself will judge between them regarding their differences. God does not guide any ungrateful liar.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

God could have chosen any of His creation He willed for offspring, but He is far above this! He is the One, the Almighty.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

He created the heavens and earth for a true purpose; He wraps the night around the day and the day around the night; He has subjected the sun and moon to run their courses for an appointed time; He is truly the Mighty, the Forgiving.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

He created you all from a single being, from which He made its mate; He gave you four kinds of livestock in pairs; He creates you in your mothers’ wombs, in one stage after another, in threefold depths of darkness. Such is God, your Lord; He holds control, there is no god but Him. How can you turn away?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

If you are ungrateful, remember God has no need of you, yet He is not pleased by ingrati-tude in His servants; if you are grateful, He is pleased [to see] it in you. No soul will bear another’s burden. You will return to your Lord in the end and He will inform you of what you have done: He knows well what is in the depths of [your] hearts.
