CHAPTER 42: 

ASH SHURA - Consultation

Total Verses : 53 

As the verses 37 states that decision has to be taken only after consultation, this chapter is named 'Ash-Shura'.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful.

1. Ha, Meem².

2. Ayn,Seen,Qaf².

3. (O Muhammad), Allah, the Almighty, the Wise, thus reveals to you and to those who went before you.

4. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and all that is in the earth. He is the Most High, the Most Great.

5. (Owing to the sins of the people) the heavens⁵⁰⁷ will try to split from above them and the angels will exalt with praise of their God and seek forgiveness for those on earth. Remember, it is Allah who is the Forgiving, the Most Merciful.

6. And it is only Allah who is the protector of those who took protectors besides Him. (O Muhammad), you are not their guardian.

7. And (O Muhammad), in order that you should warn²⁸¹, the (people in the) Mother of cities (that is Makkah) and the people in its surrounding and to warn about the Day¹ of gathering, about which there is no doubt, We revealed the Quran in the Arabic⁴⁸⁹ language (which you knew ) to you²²⁷. A party will be in paradise and a party in hell.

8. And had Allah wanted He would have made them (into) one generation. But He admits whom He wants into His Mercy. There is neither protector nor helper for the unjust.

9. Have they taken protectors besides Allah? It is Allah who is the protector. He will give life to the dead. He has power over everything.

 10. And say, "The decision is only with Allah if you differ in any matter. It is He who is Allah, my God. I rely only on Him. I return only to Him".

11. (He is) the creator of heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth. He made to you from among yourselves pairs and (for the cattle) pairs among the cattle. He made you spread in it (earth). There is nothing like Him. He is the Hearing, the Seeing.

12. The keys of the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth belong only to Him. He gives wealth generously for whom He wants. Gives less also. He is the Knower of everything.

13. Whatever He enjoined on Nuh, He also made for you the religion. (O Muhammad), what We revealed to you and that which we enjoined on Ibrahim, Musa and Isa, is only, "Establish the religion. Do not be divided in it". That towards which you invite, is very burdensome for those who associate (others to God). Allah, selects whom He wants for Himself. For the repentant He shows the way towards Him.

14. And they were not divided, even after the knowledge came to them, except because of the jealousy arose between them. If the order from your God has not preceded for a fixed period of time, judgement would have been given between them. After them those who were made inheritors of the Book are in grave doubt about it.

15. (O Muhammad), call towards it. You remain firm as you have been ordered. Do not follow their desire. Say, "Believed the Book revealed by Allah. I have been ordered to act with justice between you. It is Allah who is our God and your God. Our deeds are for as your deeds are for you. There is no dispute between us and you. Allah will gather us together (in the hereafter). Our return is only to Him.

16. And those who argue in Allah's matter after he has been answered (on the basis of proper evidence), then their argument becomes vain with their God. There is also anger upon them. There is also a severe suffering.

17. It is Allah who revealed the Book which contains truth and balance. How do you know that the Time¹ may be near?

18. Those who do not believe it are in haste. Those who have believed fear about it. They understand it to be truth. Remember, those who argue about that Time¹ are in extreme error.

19. Allah acts softly with his slaves. He gives wealth to whom He wants. He is Powerful, Almighty.

20. We will increase the harvest to those who like the harvest of the hereafter. We will give it to them from it to those who like the harvest of this world. There is no share for him in the hereafter.

21. Do they have gods who make that which Allah has not permitted as religion? If not for the order about the judgement it would have been decided between them. Indeed, for the unjust there is severe suffering.

22. You will see the unjust fearing about what they have done. That will be-fall them. Those who believe and have done good deeds will be in the gardens of Paradise. They will have whatever they want for them with their God. This is the great bounty.

23. Only thus, Allah gives as a good news to His servants who believed and did good deeds. (O Muhammad), say, "I have not asked for (any reward) from you except the affection which occurs on the basis of kinship³⁷⁷". We will increase the good to those who do good. Indeed Allah is the Forgiving, the Appreciating⁶.

24. Do they say, "He has invented about Allah a lie?" (O Muhammad), if Allah wants He will put the seal in your mind. Allah destroys lie. He establishes truth with His orders¹⁵⁵. Indeed, He is the knowing of that which is in the minds.

25. And it is He who accepts repentance from His slaves and forgives the wrongs. He knows what you do.

26. And He recognises the prayer of those who believe and do good deeds. He increases His bounty to them. For the disbelievers (of only one God) there is severe suffering.

27. And if Allah gives the wealth generously to His servants then they transgress in the earth. Yet, He sends down whatever He wants limitedly. Indeed, He is Knowing His servants well and the Seeing.

28. And it is He who sends down rain after they lost their hope. He also spreads his Mercy. He is the Protector, the Praiseworthy.

29. And it is in His signs, He has created the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth and has spread the living things in both. He is powerful enough to gather them whenever He wants.

30. And whatever harm occurred to you it is because of what your hands have earned. He forgives (most of the things) much.

31. And you are not the successful on the earth. For you there is neither a helper nor a protector except Allah.

32. And it is in His sign that the ships, like mountains, sail in the sea.

33. If He wants He stops the wind. At once it stops on its upper surface (of the sea). Indeed, there are many signs for everyone who has attitude of patience and gratefulness.

34. Or He will destroy them (by drowing them) for what they did. He forgives (most of the things) much.

35. And those who argue vainly in Our verses, (then) will know that for them there is no refuge.

36,37,38,39. Whatever things is given to you there is only the facilities of this worldly life. What is with Allah is the best and the permanent, for those who believe and rely only their God, to those who avoid grave sins and the shameful things, for those who forgive while getting angry, for those who answer their God, establish prayer and consult between them in their matter and for those who spend (in good deeds) from what We have given and for those who seek help (in God) when they were caused injustice²⁶.

40. And the reward for the evil is only an evil like it. For those who forgive and settle peacefully their reward is with Allah. Indeed, He does not like the unjust.

41. And whoever gets the help after injustice has been done to him, there is no way against him.

42. There is every reason to find fault against those who do injustice to the people without any right and transgress on the earth. For them there is painful suffering.

43. And whoever adopts patience and forgives that is one of the steadfast things.

44. And there is no helper for him except Him to those whom Allah has left astray. You will see unjust when they see the suffering, saying, "Is there a way to escape?"

45. And you will see that they will be presented before that humbled with humiliation, looking stealthly . Those who have believed (then) will say, "The losers on the Day¹ of Qiyamah are those who have caused loss to themselves and their family". Remember, the unjust will be in permanent suffering.

46. And there are no protector to help them except Allah. There is no way for the one whom Allah has left astray.

47. You give answer to the call of your God before that Day¹ comes from Allah from which there is no escape. There is no refuge for you on that day. You have no right to give any denial.

48. (O Muhammad), if they turn away, (do not be concerned) We have not sent you on them as a protector. You have nothing except to convey. And indeed, if We make the man taste Our Mercy, he became happy due to it. Indeed, the man remains ungrateful if a harm occurs to them because of the harm done by them.

49. The rule of the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth belongs only to Allah. He creates whatever He wants. He gives female (children) to whom He wants. He gives male (children) to whom He wants.

50. Or He gives them both males and females. He makes whom He wants barren. He is the Knowing and the Almighty.

51. And Allah does not talk to any men (in the other ways) except by revelation or from behind a veil or by sending a messenger thereby informing whatever He wants with His permission. He is High and Wise³⁵⁰.

52. And thus, We informed you in Our order, the basis. (O Muhammad), you have not been aware of what is the Book and what is faith³⁴⁴ .But We made it a light which shows the right way to whom we wanted. Indeed, you call to the right way⁸¹.

53. You (call), in the way of Allah, to whom whatever in the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and whatever in the earth belongs. Remember, matters return only to Allah.

CHAPTER : 41

FUSSILAT – Explained clearly

– Total Verses 54

This is named 'Fussilat' because this word is mentioned in the third verse of this chapter.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful.

1. Ha, Meem².

2. (This is) revealed from the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful.

3. This is the Book whose verses were explained for the people of understanding. This Quran is in Arabic^227&489.

4. (This is) a giver of good news and warner. Most of them denied it. So, they will not hear.

5. And they say, "There are lids in our minds (to prevent) from that towards which you call us. There are also plugs in our ears. There is a veil between us and you. So, you act. Indeed, we also act".

6. (O Muhammed), say, "I am only a man like you. Message is revealed to me that your God is only one God. So be firm (in your belief) with Him. Seek forgiveness to Him. For those who associate others (to God) there is only woe". 

7. They do not give Zakath. They also disbelieve in the Hereafter¹.

8. Indeed, there is an unlimited reward for those who believe and do good deeds.

9. Say, "You indeed disbelieve the one who created the earth in two days?¹⁷⁹ In addition you imagine equals to Him. It is He who is the God of the worlds".

 10. And He made pegs on it.²⁴⁸ He blessed it. He determined its sustenance in it in four days¹⁷⁹. This is the proper answer for those who ask questions.

11. He turned towards the heaven⁵⁰⁷ , when it was a smoke³⁵³. He told it and the earth, "You have to obey whether you like it or not". They said⁹⁶, "We obeyed willingly".

12. And He made seven heavens⁵⁰⁷  in two days¹⁷⁹. He declared His order respectively in each heaven. We decorated the nearest heaven with lamps. We (made them) protected³⁰⁷. This is the arrangement of the Almighty, the Knowing.

13. If they turn away, then say, "I warn you about the thunder-bolt, like the thunder-bolt which occurred to the people of Aad and Tamud".

14. Messengers came to the people before them and after them in order to teach, "Do not worship (anything) except Allah". For that they said, "If our God had wanted (He) would have sent down the angels. So, indeed, we are disbelievers of that which you have been sent".

15. The people of Aad became arrogant without any reason. They asked, "Who is stronger than us". Do they not see that Allah who had created them is Mightier than them? They were denying our signs.

16. So, We sent on them a severe cyclonic wind in evil days³⁸¹ in order to make them taste the huliliating suffering in this world itself. The suffering of the hereafter will be more humiliating (than this). They will not be helped.

17. And We showed the right way to the people of Tamud. They liked only blind way rather than the right way. So, as they have earned, the humiliating punishment called thunder-bolt attacked them.

18. And We saved those who believed and feared (Us).

19. And the enemies of Allah will be sorted on the Day¹ they were gathered.

20. Finally, when they came, their ear, sights and skins will testify against them, of what they have been doing.

21. And they will ask their skins, "Why did you testify against us?" They will say, "It is only Allah, who has made everything speak, made us speak. It is He who created you for the first time. You have been brought only to Him".

22. And you did not hide lest your ears, sights and your skins will testify against you. You thought that Allah did not know most of what you have done.

23. And this is your thinking about your God. It has destroyed you. So, you have become among the losers.

24. The hell is their dwelling place if they are patient. If they consider (doing worship) a hardship then they will not be burdened (for that).

25. And We have appointed companions for them. They show, what is before them and what is after attractively. So along with the evil groups among the jinns and the men, who went before them, the order was confirmed against them also. Indeed, they have become the losers.

26. And the disbelievers (of only one God) say, "Do not listen to this Quran. In order to supercede, you do distrupting things (to confuse).

27. We will make those who disbelieve (Us) to taste severe suffering. We will give them as reward whatever evil they have been doing.

28. This is the hell, the reward for the enemies of Allah. They have permanent dwelling in it. This is the reward for denying Our verses.

29. And those who disbelieved will say, "Our God, show us those among the jinns and the men, who misled us. We will put them under our feet so that they will be humiliated".

30. Indeed, to those who said, "Allah is our God" and remained firm, angels will descend and will say, "Do not fear. Do not grieve. You be happy about the paradise which was promised to you".

31,32. Will also say²⁶, "We are your helper in this world and the hereafter. You will get whatever you desire as the gift of the Most Merciful, the Forgiving. You will also get whatever you ask".

33. And who tells a good word then the one who called (people) towards Allah, did good deeds and said indeed, I am a Muslim?

34. And good and bad are not equal. You prevent the (evil) only with good. Then, the one between whom and you there is enmity, will at once become a dearest friend.

35. This (attribute) will not be given to others except those who have adopted patience. This will not be given (to others) except the one who has great blessings.

36. And you seek refuge in Allah when any harm occurs to you from shaitan. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

37. And of His signs are the night, the day, the sun and the moon. Do not do 'Sajda' to the sun or to the moon. If it should be Him you worship then do Sajda to Allah, who created them³⁹⁶.

38. If they behave arrogantly then those who are with your God pray (to) Him night and day. They will not get tired.

39. And of his signs is that you see the earth dry. It (plants in it) grows luxuriantly when We send the (rain) water on it. Indeed, one who gives life also gives to the dead. Indeed, He has power over everything.

40,41. Indeed, those who twist Our verses and those who denied when they teaching come to them will not escape from Us. Is the one who is thrown into the hell better? Or the one who comes without fear on the Day¹ of judgement? (You) do whatever you like. Indeed, He is Seeing of what you do. This Book will supercede²⁶.

42. Wrong will not come either from before or from behind it. This is revealed from the Praiseworthy and Wise³⁵¹

43. (O Muhammad), only what is said to the messengers before you, is also said to you. Indeed, your God has at His command forgiveness and a painful suffering.

44. And if we had made this a Quran in a non-Arabic⁴⁸⁹ language, they would have said, "Should not its verses be explained in detail? Is (it) not non-Arabic and (he) an Arab?" You say, "This is a right way to those who have believed and a cure for disease". There is a plug in the ears of the disbelievers. This looks like blindness to them. They are called from a distant place²²⁷.

45. And We gave the Book to Musa. Difference of opinion arose in it. If the word from your God had not preceded then the judgement would have been given between them. They are in grave doubt about it.

46. Whoever does good deed, it is for himself. Whoever does bad it is only against himself. Your God is not the one to cause harm to the servants.

PART – 25

47.The knowledge about that Time1 will be turned only to Him. Appearance of the fruits from the branches and the pregnancy and delivery of a female do not occur without His knowledge. On the Day¹ He calls them, "Where are those who were considered My equal?" They will say, "We accept to you that there is no one among us to testify".

48. And those they have been praying, before this, will disappear from them. They will be certain that there is no refuge for them.

49. Man will not be tired of praying for good things (in this world). When harm occurs to him then he remains hopeless and desparate.

50. And when We make him taste Our Mercy after the grief occurred to him, he says, "This is mine. I do not think that Time¹ will come. If I am taken to my God, then only good will happen to me from Him". We will inform those disbelievers (of Us) about what they did. We will make them taste severe suffering.

51. And if We do Mercy to the man he turns towards himself, ignoring. When harm occurs to him (then), he has been a doer of lengthy prayer.

52. (O Muhammad), ask, "Reply, who is more astray than the one who is far astray if it has come from Allah and you have refused to accept it?"

53. We will show them Our signs in many parts and within themselves. Is it not sufficient that your God has been watching everything?

54. Remember, they are only in doubt about the meeting with their God.⁴⁸⁸ Remember, He is the Knowing of everything completely.

1. Ha, Meem².

2. This is a Book revealed from Allah, the Almighty, the Knowing.

4. Except the disbelievers (of only one God) (others) will not argue about Allah's verses. Let not their wandering (affluently) in the cities deceive you.

5. Before them the people of Nuh and after them many generations considered (it) a lie. Every generation thought of attacking its Messenger. They argued in order to destroy the truth with lies. So I seized them. How was My suffering?

6. And the order of your God, that the disbelievers (of only one God) are the people of hell, was confirmed.

7. The bearers of Arsh and those arround it exalt Him by praising their God. They believe Him. They seek forgiveness for the believers, "Our God, You have surrounded everything with your Mercy and Knowledge. So, forgive those you sought your forgiveness and followed your way".

8. They pray, Our God, admit in the permanent gardens of paradise which you have promised for them, their parents, their life-partners and the good among their progeny. Indeed, You are the Mighty, the Wise."

9. And (they also pray), "You save them from the evil. You have given your Mercy to those You have protected this day from the evil. This is the grand success".

 10. Indeed, It will be said to the disbelievers (of only one God) “Allah's hatred is greater than the hatred in your mind at the time of your denial, while you were invited to believe”

 11. They will ask³⁴⁷, "Our God, You made us die two times. (You) made us alive two times. We accept our wrongs. Is there any way of escape?"

12. This is because, "You denied when Allah alone was prayed and you believed when He was associated with others". The promise is only with the High and the Great.

13. It is He who shows His signs to you. He sends down the food for you from the sky.⁵⁰⁷ Except the one who mends, others do not learn a lesson.

14. Even if the disbelievers (of only one God) hate, you make your worship with pure mind and pray sincerely to Allah only.

15. He is the promoter of ranks. He is the owner of the 'Arsh'. He gives His inspiring orders to whom He wants, among His servants to warn about the Day¹ of meeting.

16. The day they came out, there will be nothing hidden about them from Allah. To whom does the rule belong this day? It is only for the Almighty.

17. This day, every one will be rewarded for what they have done²⁶⁵. There is no injustice today. Indeed, Allah is swift in taking accounts.

18. And warn them about the Day¹ which will come swifty that, their hearts will come to their throats which they will chew and swallow. There is neither a friend nor an approved intercessor for the unjust¹⁷.

19. He knows the treachery of the eyes (done by signs) and that which the minds hide.

20. And it is only Allah who gives justice. Whoever they call besides Him will not give justice. Allah is Hearer, the Seeing.

21. Should not they travel in the earth and observe how was the end of those before them? They were superior than these in strength and the prints they had left (behind) on the earth. Allah punished them for their sins. Nobody is there is to save them from Allah.

22. It is because they denied when their messengers brought clear signs. So, Allah punished them. He is Strong, Severe in punishment.

23,24. And We sent Musa with clear signs and clear authority to Firaun, Haman and Qarun. They said, "He is a great lying magician".

25. And when he brought the truth from Us to them, they said, "Kill the male children of those who believed him and leave their female (children) alive". The plot of those disbelieve (Us) will end only in error.

26. And Firaun said, "Leave it to me regarding the killing of Musa. Let him call His God. I fear that he may change your religion and cause corruption on the earth".

27. And Musa said, "Indeed, I seek the protection in My God, from every arrogant who did not believe in the Day¹ of Enquiry".

28. And from among the people of Firaun a believer who has been hiding his belief, said, "Are you going to kill a man who says, 'My God is only Allah'? He has brought from his God clear signs to you. If he is a liar then the lie will only be upon him. If he is true then in what he warns something may occur to you. Indeed, Allah will not show the right way to the liar who transgresses".

29. (He also said), "O my people, this day the rule is only with you. (You are) powerful in the earth. Who will save us from it, if the suffering of Allah came to us?"To that Firaun said," I show you what I consider(to be right).I do not show (anything)except the right way to you."

30,31.And(that) believing man said ,"O my people , I fear in your matter ,an end like that of other people, like the people of Nooh,the people of Aad and the people of Tamud .Allah does not want injustice for the servant²⁶.

32. And , O my people ,in your matter I fear the Day¹ of calling for enquiry.

33. On that day you will run showing your backs.There will not be any protector to save you from Allah.There is no guide to show him the right way to whom Allah has left astray.

34. And Yusuf brought clear signs to you before. You remained in doubt about what he had brought. After he died ,you said,"Allah will not send any messenger after him."Thus, Allah misguides the one who transgresses in doubting³⁴⁸.

35. They argue in Allah's verses without any proof having come to them.This will cause great anger with Allah and those who have believed.Thus, Allah seals every mind which is arrogant and oppressing.

36,37. And Firaun said," O Haman, you raise a high tower for me. Have to see the God of Musa by reaching the ways , the ways to heaven.⁵⁰⁷ Indeed consider him to be a liar." Thus , for Firaun his evil deeds were shown as attractive.He was prevented from the (right) way. His plot ended in disaster²⁶.

38. And the one who believed said, "O my people, follow me. I will show you the right way".

39. (He said), "O my people, the wordly life is only (temporary) enjoyment. The hereafter is the permanent world".

40. If anybody does a wrong, he will not be given a reward except the like of it. Either among the men or among the women those who having believed and did good deeds will enter into paradise. They will be given unlimitedly, there.

41. And O my people, is it my concern? I call you towards success. But, you call me towards hell.

42. You call me to disbelieve Allah and associate that about which I have no knowledge to Him. But, I call you towards the Almighty, the Forgiving.

43. Indeed, there is no doubt that towards which you call me has no eminence to be prayed either in this world or in the hereafter, indeed, our return is only to Allah and indeed only the transgressors are the people of hell.

44. And also said, "You will understand it, what I say, later. I entrust my affair only to Allah. Indeed, Allah is seeing of (His) servants".

45. So, Allah saved him from the evils of their plot. The evil suffering surrounded the people of Firaun.

46. They will be exposed to hell-fire in the morning and in the evening. (It will be said), "When that Time¹ comes, cause the people of Firaun to enter into severe suffering349.

47. And when they argue in the hell, the weak will ask the arrogant, "Indeed, we were only following you. Were you in a state to prevent Us from a small portion of hell?"

48. The arrogant will say, "Indeed, all of us are only in it. Indeed, Allah has given the judgement between the servants".

49. And those who lay in the hell will tell the keepers of hell, "Pray to ur God. He will lighten the suffering for only one day".

50. They will ask, "Did not your messenger bring clear signs to you?" To that they will say, "Yes". The keepers of hell will say, "Then you (yourselves) pray". The prayer of the disbelievers will end in vein.

51. Indeed, we will help our messengers and the believers in this world and the Day¹ on which the witnesses come.

52. On that Day¹, their excuses will not help the unjust. Curse is for them. They also have a bad dwelling place.

53. And We gave the right way to Musa. We made that Book, inheritance of the children of Israel.

54. That was a guidance and a lesson for the understanding.

55. (O Muhammad), observe patience. Allah's promise is true. Ask forgiveness for your sin. You exalt your God with your praise in the morning and in the evening.

56. Indeed, there is nothing except arrogance in the minds of those who argue in the verses of Allah when they have not received any evidence. They are not eligible for that. Seek protection from Allah. Indeed, He is the Hearing and the Seeing.

57. Creation of the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth is greater than the creation of man. Yet, most of the people do not know.

58. And the blind and the seeing are not equal. Those who have believed and did good deeds (were not equal) to those who have done bad. You learn a lesson only a little.

59. Indeed, the Time¹ has to come. There is no doubt in it. Yet, most of the people will not believe.

60. And your God says, "Call me, I will answer⁴⁹. Indeed, those who are arrogant from worshipping me will enter hell, humiliated".

61. It is Allah who created the night so that you will get peace and the Day for seeing. Allah is Merciful on the people; Yet most of the people are not grateful?

62. It is He who is Allah, your God. He is the ceator of everything. No one is worshipful except Him. How are you misdirected?

63. Thus, those who disbelieved Allah's verses were misdirected.

64. It is Allah who made for you the earth firm and the heaven⁵⁰⁷ as the roof²⁸⁸. He gave the form to you. He perfected your form. He gave you only pure things. It is He who is Allah, your God. Allah, the God of the worlds is Blessed.

65. It is He who is (ever) alive. There is no one worshipful except Him. You call only Him, submitting your prayer only to Him with pure mind. All praise be to Allah the God of the worlds.

66. (O Muhammad) say, indeed, "When clear signs came to me from my God, indeed, I have been prevented from worshipping those you call besides Allah. I have been ordered to obey the God of the worlds".

67. It is He who created you from the clay³⁶⁸ then from the sperm-drop and then from the (zycote) clot³⁶⁵. Then He brings you out as a child. Then you reach your maturity. Then you become old. There are also people among you who are seized before that. You reach a fixed period. (He tells it to you ) so that you will understand.

68. It is He who gives life and causes death. If He decides on a matter, He says only 'Be'. At once it (becomes) is.⁵⁰⁶

69. Do you not understand, how those who argue in the verses of Allah are misdirected?

70. They consider the Book and that with which We sent Our messengers a lie. They will come to know.

71,72. Then on their necks shackles and chains will be there. They will be thrown into the boiling water. Then they will be burnt in the fire²⁶.

73,74. Then it will be asked to them, where are those that you have associated besides Allah. They will say, "They have disappeared from us. No. we have not been praying anything before this". Thus, Allah leaves astray the disbelievers (of only one God).

75. It is because you became proud and arrogant without right on the earth.

76. You enter into the gates of hell. You will remain in it permanently. The dwelling place of the arrogant is very bad.

77. (O Muhammad), be patient. Allah's promise is true. So, when We show some of what We have warned them or if We cause you to die, they will be brought only to Us.

78. And We sent many messengers before you. We have also related you about some of them. We have not related you about some of them. It is not for any messenger to bring any miracle except with the permission of Allah. So, when the order of Allah comes, judgement will be given honestly. Then, the vain will incur loss.

79. It is Allah who made cattle for you so that you will ride. You (also) eat from them¹⁷¹

80. And you have (other) benefits also in them. You get your need in your mind (by riding) on them. You were carried on them and on the ships.

81. And He shows His sign to you. Which of the sign of Allah do you deny?

82. Should they not travel on the land and observe the end of their fore-fathers? They have been more in number, more stronger and have left more traces of identity than these. But, what they did had not saved them.

83. And they become proud due to the knowledge they had, when their messengers brought to them clear proofs. What they have been mocking at, surrounded them.

84. And when they saw Our suffering they said, "We believed only Allah. We disbelieved that which we associated (to Him)".

85. Their belief when they saw Our suffering did not benefit them. This is the way of Allah on His servant who had preceded. Then the disbelievers were lost.

CHAPTER : 39

Az Zumar – Groups

– Total Verses - 75

 This chapter is named 'Az-Zumar' because the verses 71 and 73 of this chapter, mention about the good who will be taken to the paradise in groups and the bad, who will be taken to the hell in groups.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful.

1. This is the Book revealed from Allah, the Almighty, the Wise.

2. (O Muhammad), indeed, We revealed this Book which contains truth. So (when) you worship, you submit your prayer with sincerity of mind only to Allah.

3. Remember, this religion of truth belongs only to Allah. Those who have taken others besides Him as their guardians say, "We do not worship them except that they will take us closer to Allah"²¹³. Allah will give judgement about what they have contradicted. Indeed, Allah will not show the right way to the liars who disbelieve (in Him).

4. Had He wanted to take a son He would have taken from what He had created. He is Pure¹⁰ (from all weakness). It is He who is Allah, the only one, the Governing.

5. He created the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth only with proper reason. He covers the night over the day. He rolls the day over the night. He keeps the sun and the moon under His control. Each will run for a fixed period²⁴¹. Remember, He is the Mighty, the Forgiving. 

6. He created you from only one³⁶⁸. Then He created his mates from him.⁵⁰⁴ He sent down eight pairs of cattle (eligible for slaughter) for you. He creates one creation after the other in the womb of your mothers, in three darknesses. He is Allah, your God. The power is only with Him. There is no one worshhipful exscept Him. Where are you misdirected?

7. (Even) if you disbelieve (the only one God) Allah is free from you of any need.⁴⁸⁵ He will not approve any denial from His servants. If you are grateful then He will approve from you. One cannot carry the burden of others²⁶⁵. Then, your return is only with your God. He will inform you what you have been doing. Indeed, He is Knowing of what is in your minds.

8. And when some harm occurs to the man, he calls his God submitting to Him. Then, when God gives his mercy, he denies that which he has prayed. He associates others to God, in order to mislead from the way of Allah. Say, "You enjoy for some period in your disbelief (of God). Indeed, you belong to the companion of hell."

9. Ask, "Is the one who worships during night, doing 'Sajda', stands fearing the hereafter and expecting the Mercy of his God (or the one who is not like that)? Are those who know equal to those who do not know?" Indeed, the knowledgeable get the teaching (learn a lesson).

 10. "O My believing servants, inform (what your God says), fear your God. There is only good in the world for those who have done good. Allah's earth is spacious. For the patient reward will be given without any account."

11,12. Say, "Indeed, I have been ordered to offer (my) worship with pure mind to Allah while worshipping and I have been also ordered to be the first among the muslims".

13. Say, "Indeed, if I disbelieve my God I fear the suffering of the great day1".

14,15. Say, "I will worship only Him offering my worship with pure mind to Allah. You worship whatever you want besides Him". And say²⁶, "The real losers are those who caused loss to themselves; their families on the Day¹ of Qiyamah. Remember, this is the clear loss".

16. There will be plates of fire above them. There will also be plates below. Allah threatens His servants with this. My servants, fear Me.

17. For those who turn to Allah, avoiding evil powers, this is good news for them. Give good news to My servants.

18. They will hear the word and follow whichever is good. Allah showed the right way only to them. They are the wise.

19. Is the one against whom the order of suffering is confirmed (will go to heaven)?Will you release the one who is in heaven?

20. But for those who feared their God there are palaces above palaces ,raised high.Beneath them rivers flow.This is Allah's promise.Allah will not break His promise.

21. Do you not know that Allah sends down water from the heaven⁵⁰⁷ and makes it flow as springs on the earth? Then He brings forth plants with variety of colours.Then, you see it withers and turns into yellow. Then He makes it into stalks.Indeeed,for the understanding there is a lesson in it.

22.To those whom Allah has expanded the mind for Islam,he is in the light received) from his God.Woe to those whose minds have hardened from remembering their God.They are only in clear error.

23.Allah only revealed the good news.They are often repeated and similar to each other.The skins of those who fear their God shiver. Then their skins and minds relax in order to remember Allah.This is Allah's right way.With this, He shows the right way to whom He wants.There is no one to show the (right)way to whom Allah has left astray.

24.Is he who will shield his face from the harmful suffering of the Day¹ of Qiyamah(enter the hell)?It will be said to the unjust,"Taste what you did."²⁶⁵

25. Those who went before them also considered as lies.So the suffering came to them without their being aware of it.

26. Allah made for them to taste humiliation in this worldly life. The suffering of the hereafter is very great. Will not they know?

27. And We have cited each example in this Quran for the people in order that they should learn a lesson.

28. We (revealed) the Quran which has no crookedness, in the Arabic⁴⁸⁹ language, for they should fear (Us.)²²⁷.

29. Allah cites an example of a (slave) man. He has owners, who were many partners, with difference of opinion. (God) also cites an example of another man. He is subjected to only one man. Are the two equal in comparison? All praise be to Allah. Yet, most of them do not understand.

30.(O Muhammad), indeed, you have to die. Indeed, they will also have to die.

31. Then indeed, you will dispute before your God on the Day¹ of Qiyamah.

PART 24

32. Who was unjust than the one who told lies and considered the truth, which had come to him,a lie? Is there no place of refuge for the disbelievers in hell?

33. And the one who has brought the truth and the one who makes it true are the (God) fearing.

34. Whatever they want will be there with their God. This is the reward for those who do good.

35. Allah will remove the wrongs they have caused from them. He will give them reward for the good they have been doing.

36. Is not Allah sufficient for His slaves? They threaten you about those who are other than Him. There is no guide to show the right way to one whom Allah has left astray.

37. And to whom Allah shows the right way there is no one to mislead him. Is not Allah Mighty and Punishing?

38. And if you ask them, "Who created the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth?" They will indeed say, "Allah". You ask, "Tell me about those you pray besides Allah." Say, "If Allah intended me a harm could they remove His harm? Or if He intended Mercy, could they prevent His Mercy? Allah is sufficient for me. Those who rely should rely only on Him."

39,40. Say²⁶, "O my people, you act in your way. I will also act. You will know, indeed, to whom humiliating suffering will occur? On whom the permanent suffering will descend?"

41. Indeed, We reveal to you this Book which contains truth for the people. The one who gets the right way, gets it(the right way) only for himself. The one who goes astray, gets astray only against himself.(O Muhammad), you are not their guardian⁸¹.

42. Allah seizes the souls at the time of their death, and those that do not die during their sleep. He keeps with Him those for which He has decreed death and leaves others for a fixed period. Indeed, there are many signs for the people who think.

43. Ask, "Have they imagined intercessors besides Allah? Even if they are not owners of anything and without understanding?"

44. Say¹⁷, "All recommendations belong to Allah". The power of the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth belong to Him only. Then you will be returned only to Him.

45. And when only Allah is mentioned, the minds of those who disbelieve in the hereafter shrink. When those others than Him are mentioned, at once, they become happy.

46. Say, "O Allah, O Creator of heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth, O Knower of the hidden and the seen, You give judgement between them, on the matter in which they differ".

47. And if the unjust possess everything in the earth, in addition, double the like of it, they will give as ransom (to escape) from the worst suffering, on the Day¹ of Qiyamah. There will appear for them from Allah that which they have not thought of.

48. There will appear the evil that they have done²⁶⁵. whatever they have been mocking will surround them.

49. And if any harm occurs to the man he calls Us. Then, when We gives him Our bounty, he says, "This is given to me for my knowledge". It is not so. That is a test.⁴⁸⁴ Yet, most of them do not know.

50. Those who went befopre them also said the same. Whatever they had earned did not benefit them.

51. And the wrongs done by them seized them. The wrongs done by them will seize²⁶⁵.the unjust among them. They will not be successful.

52. Do they not know that Allah gives wealth more and less to whom He wants? There are many signs in if for the believing people³⁴⁵. 

53. Inform (that Allah says), "O My servants, who have transgressed against themselves, do not lose hope in the Mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah will forgive all the sins. Indeed, He is the Forgiving, the Most Merciful⁴⁷¹".

54. And you turn towards submitting only to Allah before the suffering comes to you and you were not in a state of being helped by anybody.

55,56,57,58. And you follow the good that is given to you from your God²⁶, before the suffering comes to you suddenly, when you are not aware, before anybody should say, "I would have become among the (God) fearing if Allah had shown me the right way and before (you) should say, "When you see the suffering, "I would have been among the good if I had the return".

59. (It will be said), "But, My verses came to you. You considered it a lie. You became arrogant. You have been disbelieving (Me).

60. And you will see, on the Day¹ of Qiyamah, the faces of the inventors of lies as black. Is there no dwelling place for the arrogant in hell?

61. And Allah will make those who feared (Him) successful and will save them. No harm will occur to them. They will not also grieve.

62. Allah is the creator of everything. He is the Guardian of everything.

63. The keys of the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth belong only to Him. The losers are those who disbelieve Allah's verses.

64. Ask, "O ignorant, do you order me to worship the one other than Allah?"

65,66. And (O Muhammad), to you and those who went before, the message was revealed²⁶, "If you associate others to God, your good deeds will be destroyed, you will be the loser. But, worship only Allah. Be (one) among the grateful".

67. They have not honoured Allah with true honour. On the Day¹ of Qiyamah the entire earth will be in His fist⁴⁸⁸. Heavens⁵⁰⁷ will be rolled up in His right hand^{225 & 453}. He is Pure¹⁰ (from all weaknesses). He is High, from what they associate with Him.

68. And 'Sur' will be blown. Whoever is in the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth will become unconscious except those whom Allah wants. Then, (one more time) again the 'Sur' will be blown. At once, they will rise and see³⁴⁶.

69. And earth will shine with its God's light. The (Register) Book will be placed (before). The Messengers and the witnesses will be brought. Between them, honest judgement will be given. They will not be caused injustice.

70. And for each person will be given fully of what he has done. He is well knowing of what they do.

71. And the disbelievers (of only one God) will be driven to hell groups after groups. Finally, the gates of hell will be opened. Its keepers will ask, "Did not the messengers, who convey your God's verses to you, from among yourselves, come? Did they not warn you that you have to meet that day¹? For that, they will say 'Yes'. Yet; for the disbelievers the order of suffering is confirmed.

72. It will be said, "Enter into the gates of hell". They will remain there permanently. The dwelling place of the arrogant is very bad.

73. Those who feared God will be driven to heaven group after group. Finally, the gates of heaven will be opened and when they come there, the keepers will say to them, "Peace be upon you". You will be happy. You enter into it in the state of permanence".

74. And they will say, "All Praise be to Allah. He has fulfilled His promise to us. He made us inherit the earth so that we will stay in the Paradise as we liked. The reward of the workers is good".

75. And you will see the angels, moving around the Arsh, exalting with the praise of their God. Honest judgement will be given between them.It will be said, "All Praise be to Allah, the God of the worlds".

7. (Also said )"We have not heard in any other religion.This is nothing but a fabrication."

23. One (of them) said, "Indeed, he is only my brother. He has ninety nine sheep. For me there is only one sheep. He asks me to leave that also in his possession. He has superceded me in his argument."

CHAPTER : 35

FATIR – THE CREATOR

Total Verses :45

This chapter is named 'Fatir' because the word 'Fatir' is mentioned in the first verse of this chapter.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful.

1. All praise be to Allah, who created the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth. (He) will send the angels¹⁶¹; two- winged, three-winged and four winged, as messengers. He will increase in His creation whatever He wants. Indeed, Allah has power over all things.

2. Nobody is there to prevent the mercy opened (granted) by Allah for the people. Nobody is there to send afterwards what He had prevented. He is Almighty and Wise.

3. O people, remember the favour Allah has done to you. He gives food⁴⁶³ to you from the heaven⁵⁰⁷ and the earth. Is there any other creator except Allah? There is no one worshipful except Him. How are you misguided?

4.And O Muhammad, if they consider you a liar, before you, many messengers were considered liars. All the matters should be returned only to Him.

5.O mankind, indeed, Allah's promise is true. Let not this worldly life deceive you. Let not the deceiver (shaitan) deceive you in Allah's matter.

6.Indeed, shaitan is your enemy. You make him your enemy only. He calls his group in order to become the people of hell.

7.For the disbelievers there is a severe suffering. For those who believe and do good deeds there is forgiveness and a great reward.

8.Was he (the companion of paradise) to whom his bad deed was shown attractive and he considered it as good? Allah leaves astray whom He wants. He shows the right way to whom He wants. (O Muhammad), destroy not yourself by grieving for them⁸¹. Indeed, Allah is well-knowing of what they do.

9. And it is Allah who sends the wind. It disperses the cloud. We rain it on the dead place. Thereby, We give life to the dead land. This is the resurrection.

10. Whoever wants honour then to Allah belongs all honour. Pure speech ascends only to Him. Good deed will raise it. For those who plot in evil (ways) things, there is severe suferring. Their plot will be destroyed.

11. And Allah created you from clay³⁶⁸ and then with sperm. Then arranged you in pairs. A woman conceiving and giving birth (does not) happen without his knowledge. Giving life-span to one and limiting (decreasing) life-span to one is not but recorded in the Register¹⁵⁷. This is easy for Allah.

12. And two seas cannot be alike. This is sweet with low density and good for drinking. But that is salty and bitter. You eat fresh meat from each. You bring- forth ornaments that you wear (from it). You see the ships run ploughing through it in order to seek His bounty and give thanks to Allah.

13. He makes the night to enter into the day. Makes the day to enter into the night. He keeps the sun and the moon under His control. Each of them move for a fixed period of time²⁴¹. He is Allah, your God. The power is only for Him. Those you call except Him do not have even an atom of power.

14. If you call them they will not hear your call. Even if it is assumed that they have heard they will not answer you. On the Day¹ of Qiyamah, they will deny your association (of them) with God. Nobody can inform you like the Knowledgeable one.

15.O mankind, you are in need of Allah. Allah is free from need,⁴⁸⁵ Praise-worthy.

16. If He wants He can destroy you and bring a new creation.

17. And this is not difficult for Allah.

18. And one will not bear the burden of the other²⁶⁵. If the one who has heavy burden calls anybody , even if he(the one who is called) is a relative, nothing will be shifted on him from that.You warn only those who feared God,when they were alone,and have established prayer.The virtuous purifies himself only for his good. The return is only to Allah.

19,20,21. The blind and the seeing ,the darkness⁴²⁹and the light ,the shade and the heat will not be alike²⁶.

22. And the living will not be equal to the dead. Indeed, Allah makes whom He wants hear.You cannot make those who are in the graves hear.

23. You are nobody but a warner.

24. Indeed, We sent you with truth in order to give good news and to warn. Not even  to a single generation but a warner has not come.

25. And if they consider you a liar, those who went before them also considered (their messengers) liars. Their messengers brought to them clear signs, scripture and enlightening Book¹⁰⁵.

26. Then I seized those who disbelieved (Me). How was My retaliation?

27. Do not you know that it is Allah who sends down water from the heaven?⁵⁰⁷ We brought forth with, it fruits of different colours. There are roads in the mountains white, red and in different colours. There are also black colour roads .

28. And thus there are different colours among the people, moving creatures and cattle. Among the servants of Allah only the knowledgeable fear Him. Allah is Mighty and Forgiving.

29. Indeed, those who recite Allah's Book and establish prayer and spend ( in good deeds ) from what We have given them, secretly and openly, expect a business without loss.

30. Thhat He will give their rewards in full. He will give them still more from His Bounty. He is Forgiving and Appreciative⁶.

31. And (O Muhammad), that we have revealed to you from the Book is the Truth, that confirms that which went before it⁴. Indeed, Allah is well Knowing of His servants and Seeing.

32. Then, We made inheritors of the Book, those We have selected among our slaves. Among them are those who caused harm to themselves. There are also moderates amoung them. Amoung them, are those who with the permission of Allah, hasten towards good. This is a great bounty.

33. They will enter into the permanent gardens of the paradise. There they will be adorned with golden bracelets and pearls. There their garments will be silk.

34. And also will say, "All praise be to Allah who removed the grief from us. Indeed, our God is Forgiving and Appreciative." ⁶.

35. Also will say "He has settled us in the permanent world with His bounty. Neither diffculty nor grief will touch us here.

36. And there is hell-fire for thouse who disbelieve. It will not be decided that they should die. Its suffering will not lightened for them. Thus, We will give suffering to each of the disbelievers.

37. There they will cry," Our God, send us out. We will do good deeds unlike what we have been doing(before.)".(It will be said) "Have we not given you a life-span to an extent that you can learn a lession?. Have not a warner come to you? So taste it. There is no helper to the unjust."

38. Indeed, Allah is the Knowing of what is hidden in the heaven and on the earth. Indeed, He is the Knowing of what is in the minds.

39. It is He who made you the progeny⁴⁶ on the earth. Whoever disbelieves, his disbelief is only against himself. For the disbelievers their disbelief will not but increase the anger with their God. For the disbelievers their disbelief will not but increase the loss.

40. Ask,"Show me, what did your gods, you call besides Allah, create in the earth?. Or give answer, do they have any share in the heavens?⁵⁰⁷. Or they in clear understanding due to the Book We have given them?". No. Each of these unjust promise only delusion.

41.Indeed, it is only He who has held the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth from displacement (moving away). If both are displaced nobody except Him can hold it³²⁸. Indeed, He is the Fore-bearing and Forgiving.

42,43. And if a warner came to them they firmly promised on Allah that they would be guided in the right way than any other generation. When the warner came to them that did not increase in them nothing but hatred, boasting on the earth and bad plotting. The bad plotting surround only those who did it. Do they expect (any other thing) than the end of the fore-fathers? You will not see any change in Allah's practice. You will not find any change in Allah's practice.

44. Have they not travelled on the land and observed how was the end of those who went before? They were far more stronger than these. Nothing can win Allah in the heavens⁵⁰⁷ and the earth. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Omnipotent.

45. And if Allah had to seize the people for what they have done He would not have left any living thing on earth. But, He has given them time for a fixed period. When the time comes, then indeed, Allah will be seeing of His servants.
