13 - Ar-Ra'd

مَثَلُ الْجَنَّۃِ الَّتِيْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ۝۰ۭ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِہَا الْاَنْہٰرُ۝۰ۭ اُكُلُہَا دَاۗىِٕمٌ وَّظِلُّہَا۝۰ۭ تِلْكَ عُقْبَى الَّذِيْنَ اتَّقَوْا۝۰ۤۖ وَّعُقْبَى الْكٰفِرِيْنَ النَّارُ۝۳۵
Mathalu aljannati allatee wuAAida almuttaqoona tajree min tahtiha alanharu okuluha daimun wathilluha tilka AAuqba allatheena ittaqaw waAAuqba alkafireena alnnaru

English

Ahmed Ali

The likeness of Paradise promised the pious and devout is (of a garden) with streams of rippling water, everlasting fruits and shade. This is the recompense of those who keep away from evil; but the recompense of those who deny the truth is Hell.

35

وَالَّذِيْنَ اٰتَيْنٰہُمُ الْكِتٰبَ يَفْرَحُوْنَ بِمَاۗ اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكَ وَمِنَ الْاَحْزَابِ مَنْ يُّنْكِرُ بَعْضَہٗ۝۰ۭ قُلْ اِنَّمَاۗ اُمِرْتُ اَنْ اَعْبُدَ اللہَ وَلَاۗ اُشْرِكَ بِہٖ۝۰ۭ اِلَيْہِ اَدْعُوْا وَاِلَيْہِ مَاٰبِ۝۳۶
Waallatheena ataynahumu alkitaba yafrahoona bima onzila ilayka wamina alahzabi man yunkiru baAAdahu qul innama omirtu an aAAbuda Allaha wala oshrika bihi ilayhi adAAoo wailayhi maabi

English

Ahmed Ali

Those to whom We have given the Scriptures rejoice in what We have sent down to you; but some of their factions reject some of it. Tell them: "I am commanded to worship only God, and not to associate compeers with Him. To Him I call you, and to Him is the destination."

36

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَنْزَلْنٰہُ حُكْمًا عَرَبِيًّا۝۰ۭ وَلَىِٕنِ اتَّبَعْتَ اَہْوَاۗءَہُمْ بَعْدَ مَا جَاۗءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ۝۰ۙ مَا لَكَ مِنَ اللہِ مِنْ وَّلِيٍّ وَّلَا وَاقٍ۝۳۷ۧ
Wakathalika anzalnahu hukman AAarabiyyan walaini ittabaAAta ahwaahum baAAda ma jaaka mina alAAilmi ma laka mina Allahi min waliyyin wala waqin

English

Ahmed Ali

That is how We have sent down this (Qur'an) as a code of clear judgement. But if you follow their caprices, now that you have been given knowledge, you will have no friend or protector against God.

37

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلًا مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ وَجَعَلْنَا لَہُمْ اَزْوَاجًا وَّذُرِّيَّۃً۝۰ۭ وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُوْلٍ اَنْ يَّاْتِيَ بِاٰيَۃٍ اِلَّا بِـاِذْنِ اؘ۝۰ۭ لِكُلِّ اَجَلٍ كِتَابٌ۝۳۸
Walaqad arsalna rusulan min qablika wajaAAalna lahum azwajan wathurriyyatan wama kana lirasoolin an yatiya biayatin illa biithni Allahi likulli ajalin kitabun

English

Ahmed Ali

We sent many apostles before you, and bestowed on them wives and children, but it was not for any apostle to come up with a miracle unless by the leave of God. For every age there is a law.

38

يَمْحُوا اللہُ مَا يَشَاۗءُ وَيُثْبِتُ۝۰ۚۖ وَعِنْدَہٗۗ اُمُّ الْكِتٰبِ۝۳۹
Yamhoo Allahu ma yashao wayuthbitu waAAindahu ommu alkitabi

English

Ahmed Ali

God abrogates or confirms whatsoever He will, for He has with Him the Book of Books.

39

وَاِنْ مَّا نُرِيَنَّكَ بَعْضَ الَّذِيْ نَعِدُہُمْ اَوْ نَتَوَفَّيَنَّكَ فَاِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ الْبَلٰغُ وَعَلَيْنَا الْحِسَابُ۝۴۰
Wain ma nuriyannaka baAAda allathee naAAiduhum aw natawaffayannaka fainnama AAalayka albalaghu waAAalayna alhisabu

English

Ahmed Ali

Whether We allow you to see (the punishment) We have promised them, or end your life before (its execution), it is certainly for you to convey the message; the reckoning is for Us to do.

40

اَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا اَنَّا نَاْتِي الْاَرْضَ نَنْقُصُہَا مِنْ اَطْرَافِہَا۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ يَحْكُمُ لَا مُعَقِّبَ لِحُكْمِہٖ۝۰ۭ وَہُوَسَرِيْعُ الْحِسَابِ۝۴۱
Awalam yaraw anna natee alarda nanqusuha min atrafiha waAllahu yahkumu la muAAaqqiba lihukmihi wahuwa sareeAAu alhisabi

English

Ahmed Ali

Do they not see Us advancing from all sides into their land and reducing its frontiers? It is for God to judge; and there is none to reverse His judgement. He is swift at reckoning.

41

وَقَدْ مَكَرَ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِہِمْ فَلِلّٰہِ الْمَكْرُ جَمِيْعًا۝۰ۭ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْسِبُ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ۝۰ۭ وَسَيَعْلَمُ الْكُفّٰرُ لِمَنْ عُقْبَى الدَّارِ۝۴۲
Waqad makara allatheena min qablihim falillahi almakru jameeAAan yaAAlamu ma taksibu kullu nafsin wasayaAAlamu alkuffaru liman AAuqba alddari

English

Ahmed Ali

Surely those who had gone before them had also plotted; but God's is all the planning, for He has knowledge of what each does. The unbelievers will soon learn for whom is the guerdon of Paradise.

42

وَيَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَسْتَ مُرْسَلًا۝۰ۭ قُلْ كَفٰى بِاللہِ شَہِيْدًۢا بَيْنِيْ وَبَيْنَكُمْ۝۰ۙ وَمَنْ عِنْدَہٗ عِلْمُ الْكِتٰبِ۝۴۳ۧ
Wayaqoolu allatheena kafaroo lasta mursalan qul kafa biAllahi shaheedan baynee wabaynakum waman AAindahu AAilmu alkitabi

English

Ahmed Ali

Yet those who are disbelievers say: "You are not the apostle sent (by God)." Tell them: "God is sufficient as witness between me and you, and he who has knowledge of the Book."

الۗرٰ۝۰ۣ كِتٰبٌ اَنْزَلْنٰہُ اِلَيْكَ لِتُخْرِجَ النَّاسَ مِنَ الظُّلُمٰتِ اِلَي النُّوْرِ۝۰ۥۙ بِـاِذْنِ رَبِّھِمْ اِلٰي صِرَاطِ الْعَزِيْزِ الْحَمِيْدِ۝۱ۙ
Aliflamra kitabun anzalnahu ilayka litukhrija alnnasa mina alththulumati ila alnnoori biithni rabbihim ila sirati alAAazeezi alhameedi

English

Ahmed Ali

ALIF LAM RA. A Book We have sent down to you that you may lead men out of darkness into light, by their Lord's command, to the path of the mighty, the worthy of praise.
