On that Day you shall see that every nursing mother will forget her nursing-babe and every pregnant female will miscarry, and you will see people as if they are intoxicated, though they will not be drunk: such will be the horror of Allah’s chastisement.[22.2]

O mankind! If you doubt that there is life after death remember that We first created you from dust, then from a sperm, then from a leech- like mass, then from a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, so that We may manifest to you Our power. We cause to remain in the womb whom We wish for an appointed term, and then We bring you forth as infants; then We nourish you so that you may reach your age of full strength. There are some of you who die young and some who live on to their abject old age when all that they once knew they know no more. You sometimes see the land dry and barren; but no sooner do We pour down rain upon it then it begins to stir and swell, putting forth every kind of beautiful growth in pairs.[22.5]
Wa 'Anna As-Sā`ata 'Ātiyatun Lā Rayba Fīhā Wa 'Anna Al-Laha Yab`athu Man Fī Al-Qubūri
and this is a proof that the Hour of Doom is sure to come - there is no doubt about it; and that Allah will raise up those who are in the graves.[22.7]
twisting things around in order to lead others astray from the Path of Allah - for such persons there is disgrace in this life, and on the Day of Judgment we shall make them taste the punishment of burning fire,[22.9]
Wa Mina An-Nāsi Man Ya`budu Al-Laha `Alá Ĥarfin Fa'in 'AşābahuKhayrun Aţma'anna Bihi Wa 'In 'Aşābat/hu Fitnatun Anqalaba `Alá WajhihiKhasira Ad-Dunyā Wa Al-'Ākhirata Dhālika Huwa Al-Khusrānu Al-Mubīnu
There are some people who worship Allah standing on the verge of faith (half faith and half disbelief). When such a person is blessed with good fortune he is content; but if he encounters a trial he turns back headlong; thus losing both this world and the Hereafter, which is a clear-cut loss.[22.11]
Yad`ū Min Dūni Al-Lahi Mā Lā Yađurruhu Wa Mā Lā Yanfa`uhu Dhālika Huwa Ađ-Đalālu Al-Ba`īdu
Then instead of Allah, he starts calling those deities who can neither harm nor help him; now that is going too far off in deviation from the Right Way.[22.12]
If anyone thinks that Allah will not help His Rasool in this world and in the Hereafter, let him stretch out a rope to the sky if he can and cut a hole to peep through and see for himself whether his device can avert that which irritates him.[22.15]
'Inna Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū Wa Al-Ladhīna Hādū Wa Aş-Şābi'īna Wa An-Naşārá Wa Al-Majūsa Wa Al-Ladhīna 'Ashrakū 'Inna Al-Laha Yafşilu Baynahum Yawma Al-Qiyāmati 'Inna Al-Laha `Alá Kulli Shay'inShahīdun
Surely as for those who are true believers (the Muslims), the Jews, the Sabians, the Christians, the Magians and the ones who commit shirk (polytheists) - Allah will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection; for Allah is a witness over everything.[22.17]
'Alam Tará 'Anna Al-Laha Yasjudu Lahu Man Fī As-Samāwāti Wa Man Fī Al-'Arđi Wa Ash-Shamsu Wa Al-Qamaru Wa An-Nujūmu Wa Al-Jibālu Wa Ash-Shajaru Wa Ad-Dawābbu Wa Kathīrun Mina An-Nāsi Wa Kathīrun Ĥaqqa `Alayhi Al-`Adhābu Wa Man Yuhini Al-Lahu Famā Lahu Min Mukrimin 'Inna Al-Laha Yaf`alu Mā Yashā'u
Do you not see how all who dwell in the heavens and the earth bow down in worship to Allah, including the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the animals, and a large number of people, even a large number of those deserving the punishment. He who is humbled by Allah has none who can raise him to honor; surely Allah does what He pleases.[22.18]
These are the two adversaries (the believers and disbelievers) who dispute with each other about their Rabb: as for the disbelievers, garments of Fire will be cut out for them, boiling water will be poured over their heads,[22.19]
and there will be maces of iron to lash them.[22.21]
وَلَهُمْ مَقَامِعُ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ

Whenever, in their anguish, they try to escape therefrom, they will be forced back therein, and will be told: “Taste the punishment of conflagration!”[22.22]
'Inna Al-Laha Yudkhilu Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū Wa `Amilū Aş-Şāliĥāti Jannātin Tajrī Min Taĥtihā Al-'Anhāru Yuĥallawna Fīhā Min 'Asāwira MinDhahabin Wa Lu'ulu'uāan Wa Libāsuhum Fīhā Ĥarīrun
As for those who have faith and do good deeds, Allah will certainly admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow. They shall be decked with pearls and bracelets of gold, and their garments will be of silk.[22.23]
Wa Hudū 'Ilá Aţ-Ţayyibi Mina Al-Qawli Wa Hudū 'Ilá Şirāţi Al-Ĥamīdi
This is because during their life on earth, they were guided to accept the pure words of Allah and they were shown the Way of the All-Praiseworthy.[22.24]
'Inna Al-Ladhīna Kafarū Wa Yaşuddūna `An Sabīli Al-Lahi Wa Al-Masjidi Al-Ĥarāmi Al-Ladhī Ja`alnāhu Lilnnāsi Sawā'an Al-`Ākifu Fīhi Wa Al-Bādi Wa Man Yurid Fīhi Bi'ilĥādin Bižulmin Nudhiqhu Min `Adhābin 'Alīmin
As for those who are unbelievers and debar others from the Way of Allah and from the Masjid-al-Harمm, to which We have assigned all mankind with equal rights whether they are natives or foreigners, and whoever intends to deviate from righteousness to wrongdoing in its vicinity, We will make him taste a painful punishment.[22.25]
Wa 'Idh Bawwa'nā Li'ibrāhīma Makāna Al-Bayti 'An Lā Tushrik Bī Shay'āan Wa Ţahhir Baytiya Lilţţā'ifīna Wa Al-Qā'imīna Wa Ar-Rukka`i As-Sujūdi
Remember! We identified the site of the Sacred House to Ibrمhïm (Abraham), saying, “Worship none besides Me, sanctify My House for those worshippers who make Tawمf (walking counterclockwise around it as a part of the Hajj rituals), and stand in prayer, bow, and prostrate themselves,[22.26]
so that they may witness the benefits which are made available here for them, and pronounce the name of Allah over the cattle which We have provided as food for them, on the appointed days, then eat meat themselves and feed the indigent and needy.[22.28]
Thumma Liyaqđū Tafathahum Wa Līūfū Nudhūrahum Wa Līaţţawwafū Bil-Bayti Al-`Atīqi
Then they should accomplish their needful acts of shaving or cutting their hair and taking a bath, fulfill their vows and go for Tawمf-e-Ziyمrah to the Ancient House.[22.29]
Dhālika Wa Man Yu`ažžim Ĥurumāti Al-Lahi Fahuwa Khayrun Lahu `Inda Rabbihi Wa 'Uĥillat Lakumu Al-'An`ām 'Illā Mā Yutlá `Alaykum Fājtanibū Ar-Rijsa Mina Al-'Awthāni Wa Ajtanibū Qawla Az-Zūri
This was the object for which the Ka’bah was built, and whoever honors the sacred rites of Allah, it is good for him in the sight of his Rabb. The meat of cattle is lawful to you, except what has already been mentioned to you; therefore, shun the abomination of idols and shun all false statements.[22.30]
Dedicate yourselves to Allah and do not commit shirk with Him: for anyone who commits shirk, it is as though he had fallen from the sky; then his body is either snatched away by birds or carried away by the wind to some far-off place,[22.31]
You may benefit (by using their milk) from the cattle dedicated for sacrifice, until the time of their slaughter, then their place of sacrifice is near the Ancient House.[22.33]
For every nation We prescribed a way of sacrifice so that they may pronounce the name of Allah over the cattle which He has given them for food, but the object is one and the same: to remember that your God is one God; so submit yourselves to Him as a Muslim, and O Prophet, give good news to the humble,[22.34]
Al-Ladhīna 'Idhā Dhukira Al-Lahu Wajilat Qulūbuhum Wa Aş-Şābirīna `Alá Mā 'Aşābahum Wa Al-Muqīmī Aş-Şalāati Wa Mimmā Razaqnāhum Yunfiqūna
whose hearts tremble at the mention of Allah; who endure adversity with patience, who establish Salah and spend in charity out of what we have given them.[22.35]
Wa Al-Budna Ja`alnāhā Lakum MinSha`ā'iri Al-Lahi Lakum Fīhā Khayrun Fādhkurū Asma Al-Lahi `Alayhā Şawāffa Fa'idhā Wajabat Junūbuhā Fakulū Minhā Wa 'Aţ`imū Al-Qāni`a Wa Al-Mu`tarra Kadhālika Sakhkharnāhā Lakum La`allakum Tashkurūna
We have included the sacrificial camels among the Symbols of Allah, for there is much good for you in them. Therefore, pronounce the name of Allah over them while standing, and when they fall down on their sides after slaughter, when their movement completely stops, then eat of their meat, feed the contented (poor who do not ask) and the beggars (poor who ask). Thus We have subjected these animals to you so that you may be grateful.[22.36]
Lan Yanāla Al-Laha Luĥūmuhā Wa Lā Dimā'uuhā Wa Lakin Yanāluhu At-Taqwá Minkum Kadhālika Sakhkharahā Lakum Litukabbirū Al-Laha `Alá Mā Hadākum Wa Bashshiri Al-Muĥsinīna
It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah; it is your piety that reaches Him. Thus, He has subjected these animals to you so that you may glorify Allah for giving you guidance, and O Prophet, give good news to those who do good to others.[22.37]
Permission to fight back is hereby granted to the believers against whom war is waged and because they are oppressed (before this revelation, Muslims were not allowed to fight even for self defense); certainly Allah has power to grant them victory[22.39]
Al-Ladhīna 'Ukhrijū Min Diyārihim Bighayri Ĥaqqin 'Illā 'An Yaqūlū Rabbunā Al-Lahu Wa Lawlā Daf`u Al-Lahi An-Nāsa Ba`đahum Biba`đin Lahuddimat Şawāmi`u Wa Biya`un Wa Şalawātun Wa Masājidu Yudhkaru Fīhā Asmu Al-Lahi Kathīrāan Wa Layanşuranna Al-Lahu Man Yanşuruhu 'Inna Al-Laha Laqawīyun `Azīzun
- those who have been unjustly expelled from their homes only because they said, “Our Lord is Allah." Had not Allah repelled some people by the might of others, the monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques in which Allah’s praise is daily celebrated, would have been utterly demolished. Allah will certainly help those who help His cause; most surely Allah is Mighty, Powerful.[22.40]
Al-Ladhīna 'In Makkannāhum Fī Al-'Arđi 'Aqāmū Aş-Şalāata Wa 'Ātaw Az-Zakāata Wa 'Amarū Bil-Ma`rūfi Wa Nahaw `Ani Al-Munkari Wa Lillahi `Āqibatu Al-'Umūri
These are the people who, if We establish them in the land, will establish Salah and pay Zakah, enjoin justice and forbid evil; the final decision of all affairs is in the hands of Allah.[22.41]
Wa 'Aşĥābu Madyana Wa Kudhdhiba Mūsá Fa'amlaytu Lilkāfirīna Thumma 'Akhadhtuhum Fakayfa Kāna Nakīri
as well as the residents of Madyan had denied their Prophets, likewise Musa (Moses) was also denied. Initially, I gave respite to all those unbelievers and then I seized them: see how terrible was My disapproval![22.44]
Faka'ayyin Min Qaryatin 'Ahlaknāhā Wa Hiya Žālimatun Fahiya Khāwiyatun `Alá `Urūshihā Wa Bi'rin Mu`aţţalatin Wa Qaşrin Mashīdin
How many townships, teaming with wrong doings, have We utterly destroyed! Today they lie with their roofs fallen in, their wells abandoned, and their lofty castles deserted.[22.45]
Have they not traveled through the land? Have they no hearts to learn wisdom, or ears to hear the Truth? Certainly it is not their eyes which are blind, but it is the hearts in their breasts which are blind.[22.46]
Wa Yasta`jilūnaka Bil-`Adhābi Wa Lan Yukhlifa Al-Lahu Wa`dahu Wa 'Inna Yawmāan `Inda Rabbika Ka'alfi Sanatin Mimmā Ta`uddūna
These people ask you to hasten the threatened punishment. Well, Allah will never go back on His promise. In fact a day of your Rabb (time period in which Allah's decision is executed) is equal to a thousand years of your calculation.[22.47]
Wa Ka'ayyin Min Qaryatin 'Amlaytu Lahā Wa Hiya ŽālimatunThumma 'Akhadhtuhā Wa 'Ilayya Al-Maşīru
There have been many townships teeming with wrong doings, to whom at first I gave respite and at the end I smote them. Towards Me is the destination of all.[22.48]
Never have We sent a Rasool or a prophet before you, O Muhammad, with whose wishes Shaitمn did not tamper; but Allah abrogates the interjections of Shaitمn and confirms His own revelations, for Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.[22.52]
Liyaj`ala Mā Yulqī Ash-Shayţānu Fitnatan Lilladhīna Fī Qulūbihim Marađun Wa Al-Qāsiyati Qulūbuhum Wa 'Inna Až-Žālimīna Lafī Shiqāqin Ba`īdin
He makes Shaitمn’s interjections a temptation for those whose hearts suffer from the disease of hypocrisy and whose hearts are hardened - that’s why the wrongdoers are in such an extreme dissension[22.53]
- so that those who are endowed with knowledge may realize that this (Qur’an) is the Truth from your Rabb and thus believe in it and humble their hearts towards Him, and surely Allah will guide the believers to the Straight Way.[22.54]
As for the unbelievers, they will never cease to doubt the revelation, until the Hour of Doom overtakes them suddenly or there comes on them the punishment of the Day of Disaster.[22.55]
On that Day the Kingdom will be that of Allah’s; He will judge between them; so those who have embraced the true faith and done good deeds shall enter the gardens of delight;[22.56]
Wa Al-Ladhīna Hājarū Fī Sabīli Al-LahiThumma Qutilū 'Aw Mātū Layarzuqannahumu Al-LahuRizqāan Ĥasanāan Wa 'Inna Al-Laha Lahuwa Khayru Ar-Rāziqīna
As for those who migrated for the sake of Allah and afterwards were killed or died, Allah will make a generous provision for them; certainly Allah is the One Who is the best Provider.[22.58]
Dhālika Wa Man `Āqaba Bimithli Mā `Ūqiba BihiThumma Bughiya `Alayhi Layanşurannahu Al-Lahu 'Inna Al-Laha La`afūwun Ghafūrun
Thus shall it be! He that retaliates equal to the infliction he received and then is wronged again, will most certainly be helped by Allah; surely Allah is the One Who is All-Forbearing, Most Forgiving.[22.60]
Dhālika Bi'anna Al-Laha Huwa Al-Ĥaqqu Wa 'Anna Mā Yad`ūna Min Dūnihi Huwa Al-Bāţilu Wa 'Anna Al-Laha Huwa Al-`Alīyu Al-Kabīru
That is because Allah is the One Who is Real; and all those deities besides Him, whom they invoke, are false; indeed it is Allah Who is the Supreme, the Great.[22.62]
Do you not see that Allah has subdued to you all that is in the earth and the ships that sail through the sea by His command? He is withholding the sky in a way that it cannot fall down on the earth without His permission; surely Allah is very kind and merciful to mankind.[22.65]
To every nation We have prescribed the rites of worship which they observe, therefore, let them not dispute with you concerning this matter - keep calling them to the Way of your Rabb; for most surely you are rightly guided.[22.67]
Do you not know that Allah is aware of all that is in heaven and the earth? Certainly all of this is recorded in a Book and it is very easy for Allah to do so.[22.70]
Wa Ya`budūna Min Dūni Al-Lahi Mā Lam Yunazzil Bihi Sulţānāan Wa Mā Laysa Lahum Bihi `Ilmun Wa Mā Lilžžālimīna Min Naşīrin
Yet they worship besides Allah those deities for which He has revealed no sanction, nor they themselves have any knowledge about them; certainly the wrongdoers shall have no helper.[22.71]
When Our revelations are recited to them with all their clarity, you can notice a denial on the faces of the unbelievers. They can barely restrain themselves from assaulting those who recite Our revelations. Say to them: “Should I tell you something which is far worse than that? It is the fire of hell, which Allah has promised to those who reject the truth; what an evil abode it will be!”[22.72]
O mankind! Here is an example for your understanding, so listen to it carefully. Those deities whom you call besides Allah, cannot create a single fly, even if they all combined their forces, rather, if a fly snatches away anything from them they cannot even get it back; how feebleminded are the suppliants and how powerless are those whom they supplicate![22.73]
Wa Jāhidū Fī Al-Lahi Ĥaqqa Jihādihi Huwa Ajtabākum Wa Mā Ja`ala `Alaykum Fī Ad-Dīni Min Ĥarajin Millata 'Abīkum 'Ibrāhīma Huwa Sammākumu Al-Muslimyna Min Qablu Wa Fī Hādhā Liyakūna Ar-Rasūlu Shahīdāan `Alaykum Wa Takūnū Shuhadā'a `Alá An-Nāsi Fa'aqīmū Aş-Şalāata Wa 'Ātū Az-Zakāata Wa A`taşimū Bil-Lahi Huwa Mawlākum Fani`ma Al-Mawlá Wa Ni`ma An-Naşīru
Strive in the Way of Allah as you ought to strive with sincerity and discipline; He has chosen you and has not laid upon you any hardship in the observance of your faith - the faith of your father Ibrمhïm (Abraham). He named you Muslims before in prior scriptures and in this (The Qur’an), so that His Rasool may testify against you and you yourselves may testify against the rest of mankind. Therefore, establish Salah, pay Zakah and hold fast to Allah, Who is your Protector - so what an excellent Protector and what a splendid Supporter![22.78]
