59 "This is a crowd rushing headlong with you." There is no welcome for them. They will be scorched by the Fire.
60 They will say, "But it is you! There is no welcome for you! It is you who brought it upon us! What a miserable end!"
61 They will say, "Our Lord, whoever brought this upon us, give him double torment in the Fire."
62 And they will say, "What is it with us that we do not see men we used to count among the wicked?
63 Did we take them for mockery, or have our eyes swerved from them?
64 This is certainly true-the feuding of the people of the Fire.
65 Say, "I am only a warner, and there is no god except God-the One, the Conqueror.
66 The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them; the Mighty, the Forgiver."
67 Say, "It is a message of great importance.
68 From which you are turning away.
69 I have no knowledge of the Highest Assembly as they dispute.
70 It is only revealed to me that I am a clear warner."
71 Your Lord said to the angels, "I am creating a human being from clay.
72 When I have formed him, and breathed into him of My spirit, fall prostrate before him.
73 So the angels fell prostrate, all of them.
74 Except for Satan. He was too proud, and one of the faithless.
75 He said, "O Satan, what prevented you from prostrating before what I created with My Own hands? Are you too proud, or were you one of the exalted?"
76 He said, "I am better than he; You created me from fire, and You created him from clay."
77 He said, "Then get out of here! You are an outcast!
78 And My curse will be upon you until the Day of Judgment."
79 He said, "Lord, defer me until the Day they are resurrected."
80 He said, "You are one of those deferred.
81 Until the Day of the Time Appointed."
82 He said, "By Your majesty, I will seduce them all.
83 Except for your loyal servants among them."
84 He said, "The truth is, and I say the truth.
85 I will fill Hell with you, and with every one of them who follows you."
86 Say, "I ask of you no wage for this, and I am not a pretender.
87 It is but a reminder to mankind.
88 And you will know its message after a while."
In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
1 The revelation of the Book is from God, the Mighty and Wise.
2 We sent down to you the Book with the truth, so serve God, devoting your religion to Him.
3 Is not to God that sincere faith is due? As for those who take guardians besides Him, "We only worship them that they may bring us nearer to God." God will judge between them regarding their differences. God does not guide the lying blasphemer.
4 If God wanted to have a son, He could have selected from His creation at will. Glory be to Him. He is God, the One, the Prevailing.
5 He created the heavens and the earth with reason. He wraps the night around the day, and He wraps the day around the night. And He regulates the sun and the moon, each running along a specific course. He is indeed the Almighty, the Forgiver.
6 He created you from one person, then made from it its mate, and brought down livestock for you-eight kinds in pairs. He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, in successive formations, in a triple darkness. Such is God, your Lord. His is the kingdom. There is no god but He. So what made you deviate?
7 If you disbelieve, God is Independent of you, yet He does not approve ingratitude on the part of His servants. And if you are thankful, He will approve that in you. No bearer of burden can bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return; and He will inform you of what you used to do. He is aware of what the hearts contain.
8 When some adversity touches the human being, he prays to his Lord, repenting to Him. But then, when He confers on him a grace of His, he forgets what he was praying for before, and he attributes rivals to God, in order to lead astray from His way. Say, "Enjoy your disbelief for a little while; you will be among the inmates of the Fire."
9 Is he who worships devoutly during the watches of the night, prostrating himself and standing up, mindful of the Hereafter, and placing his hope in the mercy of his Lord? Say, "Are those who know and those who do not know equal?" Only those possessed of reason will remember.
10 Say, "O My devotees who have believed, keep your duty to your Lord. For those who do good in this world, is goodness. And God's earth is vast. The steadfast will be paid their wages in full, without reckoning."
11 Say, "I was commanded to serve God, devoting my religion exclusively to Him.
12 And I was commanded to be the first of those who submit."
13 Say, "I fear, if I disobeyed my Lord, the punishment of a horrendous Day."
14 Say, "It is God I worship, sincere in my faith in Him."
15 "But you can worship whatever you wish besides Him." Say, "The losers are those who lose their souls and their people on the Day of Resurrection." That is indeed the obvious loss.
16 They will have layers of Fire above them, and layers beneath them. That is how God strikes fear into His servants-"O My servants! Beware of Me!"
17 As for those who avoid the worship of idols, and devote themselves to God-theirs is the good news. So give good news to My servants.
18 Those who listen to the Word, and follow the best of it. These are they whom God has guided. These are they who possess intellect.
19 What about someone who has deserved the sentence of punishment? Is it you who can save those in the Fire?
20 But those who fear their Lord will have mansions upon mansions, built high, with streams flowing beneath them. The promise of God; and God never breaks a promise.
21 Have you not considered how God sends down water from the sky, then He makes it flow into underground wells, then He produces with it plants of various colors, then they wither and you see them yellowing, then He turns them into debris? Surely in this is a reminder for those with understanding.
22 What about someone whose heart God has opened to Islam, so that he follows a light from His Lord? Woe to those whose hearts are hardened against the mention of God. Those are in manifest error.
23 God has sent down the best of narrations: a Scripture consistent and paired. The skins of those who reverence their Lord shiver from it, then their skins and their hearts soften up to the remembrance of God. Such is God's guidance; He guides with it whomever He wills. But whomever God leaves astray, for him there is no guide.
24 What about someone who covers his face against the terrible misery of the Day of Resurrection? To the evildoers it will be said, "Taste what you used to earn."
25 Those before them also denied the truth, so the penalty came upon them from where they did not perceive.
26 God made them taste disgrace in the present life, but the punishment of the Hereafter is worse, if they only knew.
27 We have cited in this Quran for mankind every ideal, that they may take heed.
