بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

We took the Children of Israel across the sea. Pharaoh and his troops pursued them in arrogance and aggression. But as he was drowning he cried, ‘I believe there is no God except the one the Children of Israel believe in. I submit to Him.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

‘Now? When you had always been a rebel, and a troublemaker!

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Today We shall save only your corpse as a sign to all posterity. A great many people fail to heed Our signs.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

We settled the Children of Israel in a good place and provided good things as sustenance for them. It was only after knowledge had come to them that they began to differ among themselves. Your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection regarding their differences.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

So if you [Prophet] are in doubt about what We have revealed to you, ask those who have been reading the scriptures before you. The Truth has come to you from your Lord, so be in no doubt

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

and do not deny God’s signs– then you would become one of the losers.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Those against whom your Lord’s sentence is passed will not believe,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

even if every sign comes to them, until they see the agonizing torment.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

If only a single town had believed and benefited from its belief! Only Jonah’s people did so, and when they believed, We relieved them of the punishment of disgrace in the life of this world, and let them enjoy life for a time.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed. So can you [Prophet] compel people to believe?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

No soul can believe except by God’s will, and He brings disgrace on those who do not use their reason.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Say, ‘Look at what is in the heavens and on the earth.’ But what use are signs and warnings to people who will not believe?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

What are they waiting for but the punishment that came to those before them? Say, ‘Wait then, I am waiting too.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

In the end We shall save Our messengers and the believers. We take it upon Ourself to save the believers.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

[Prophet] say, ‘People, even if you are in doubt about my religion, I do not worship those you worship other than God, but I worship God who will cause you to die, and I am commanded to be a believer.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

[Prophet], set your face towards religion as a man of pure faith. Do not be one of those who join partners with God;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

do not pray to any other [god] that can neither benefit nor harm you: if you do, you will be one of the evildoers.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

If God inflicts harm on you, no one can remove it but Him, and if He intends good for you, no one can turn His bounty away; He grants His bounty to any of His servants He will. He is the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Say, ‘People, the Truth has come to you from your Lord. Whoever follows the right path follows it for his own good, and whoever strays does so to his own loss: I am not your guardian.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

[Prophet], follow what is being revealed to you, and be steadfast until God gives His judgement, for He is the Best of Judges.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Alif Lam Ra [This is] a Scripture whose verses are perfected, then set out clearly, from One who is all wise, all aware.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

[Say, Prophet], ‘Worship no one but God. I am sent to you from Him to warn and to give good news.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Ask your Lord for forgiveness, then turn back to Him. He will grant you wholesome enjoyment until an appointed time, and give His grace to everyone who has merit. But if you turn away, I fear you will have torment on a terrible Day:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

it is to God that you will all return, and He has power over everything.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

See how they [the disbelievers] wrap themselves up, to hide their feelings from Him. But even when they cover themselves with their clothes, He knows what they conceal and what they reveal: He knows well the innermost secrets of the heart.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
