My people, why do I call you to salvation when you call me to the Fire?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:42

You call me to disbelieve in God and to associate with Him things of which I have no knowledge; I call you to the Mighty, the Forgiving One.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:43

Those in the Fire will say to the keepers of Hell, ‘Ask your Lord to lessen our suffering for one day,’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:50

but they will say, ‘Did your messengers not come to you with clear evidence of the truth?’ They will say, ‘Yes they did,’ and the keeper will say, ‘You can plead, then, but the pleas of disbelievers will always be in vain.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:51

We support Our messengers and the believers, in the present life and on the Day when witnesses arise.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:52

On the Day when excuses will not profit the evildoers, their fate will be rejection and they will have the worst of homes.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

as a guide and a reminder to people of understanding.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

As for those who, with no authority to do so, dispute God’s messages, there is nothing in their hearts but a thirst for a greatness they will never attain. Seek refuge in God, for He is the All Hearing, the All Seeing.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

It is God who has given you the night in which to rest and the day in which to see. God is truly bountiful to people, but most people do not give thanks.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:62

Such is God your Lord, the Creator of all things: there is no god but Him. How can you be so deluded?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:63

This is how deluded those who deny God’s messages are.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:64

It is God who has given you the earth for a dwelling place and the heavens for a canopy. He shaped you, formed you well, and provided you with good things. Such is God your Lord, so glory be to Him, the Lord of the Worlds.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

40:65

He is the Living One and there is no god but Him, so call on Him, and dedicate your religion entirely to Him. Praise be to God, the Lord of the Worlds.
