Takādu As-Samāwātu Yatafaţţarna Min Fawqihinna ۚ Wa Al-Malā'ikatu Yusabbiĥūna Biĥamdi Rabbihim Wa Yastaghfirūna Liman Fī Al-'Arđi ۗ 'Alā 'Inna Allāha Huwa Al-Ghafūru Ar-Raĥīmu
Nearly the heavens might rent asunder from above them (by His Majesty), and the angels glorify the praises of their Lord, and ask for forgiveness for those on the earth, verily, Allāh is the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful. (Ash-Shura 42:5)
Wa Al-Ladhīna Attakhadhū Min Dūnihi~ 'Awliyā'a Allāhu Ĥafīžun `Alayhim Wa Mā 'Anta `Alayhim Biwakīlin
And as for those who take as Auliyā' (guardians, supporters, helpers, protectors, etc.) others besides Him [i.e. they take false deities other than Allāh (as) protectors, and they worship them] Allāh is Hafīz (Protector) over them (i.e. takes care of their deeds and will recompense them), and you (O Muhammad SAW) are not a Wakīl (guardian or a disposer of their affairs) over them (to protect their deeds, etc.). (Ash-Shura 42:6)
Wa Kadhalika 'Awĥaynā 'Ilayka Qur'ānāan `Arabīyāan Litundhira 'Umma Al-Qurá Wa Man Ĥawlahā Wa Tundhira Yawma Al-Jam`i Lā Rayba Fīhi ۚ Farīqun Fī Al-Jannati Wa Farīqun Fī As-Sa`īri
And thus We have inspired unto you (O Muhammad SAW) a Qur'ān (in Arabic) that you may warn the Mother of the Towns (Makkah) and all around it. And warn of the Day of Assembling, of which there is no doubt, when a party will be in Paradise (those who believed in Allāh and followed what Allāh's Messenger SAW brought them) and a party in the blazing Fire (Hell) (those who disbelieved in Allāh and followed not what Allāh's Messenger SAW brought them) (Ash-Shura 42:7)
Wa Law Shā'a Allāhu Laja`alahum 'Ummatan Wāĥidatan Wa Lakin Yudkhilu Man Yashā'u Fī Raĥmatihi ۚ Wa Až-Žālimūna Mā Lahum Min Wa Līyin Wa Lā Naşīrin
And if Allāh had willed, He could have made them one nation, but He admits whom He wills to His Mercy. And the Zālimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) will have neither a Walī (protector) nor a helper. (Ash-Shura 42:8)
'AmAttakhadhū Min Dūnihi~ 'Awliyā'a ۖ Fa-Allāhu Huwa Al-Walīyu Wa Huwa Yuĥyī Al-Mawtá Wa Huwa `Alá Kulli Shay'inQadīrun
Or have they taken (for worship) Auliyā' (guardians, supporters, helpers, protectors, etc.) besides Him? But Allāh, He Alone is the Walī (Protector, etc.). And it is He Who gives life to the dead, and He is Able to do all things. (Ash-Shura 42:9)
Wa Mā Akhtalaftum Fīhi MinShay'in Faĥukmuhu~ 'Ilá Allāhi ۚ Dhalikumu Allāhu Rabbī `Alayhi Tawakkaltu Wa 'Ilayhi 'Unību
And in whatsoever you differ, the decision thereof is with Allāh (He is the ruling Judge). (And say O Muhammad SAW to these polytheists:) Such is Allāh, my Lord in Whom I put my trust, and to Him I turn in all of my affairs and in repentance. (Ash-Shura 42:10)
Fāţiru As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'Arđi ۚ Ja`ala Lakum Min 'Anfusikum 'Azwājāan Wa Mina Al-'An`ām 'Azwājāan ۖ Yadhra'uukum Fīhi ۚ Laysa Kamithlihi Shay'un ۖ Wa Huwa As-Samī`u Al-Başīru
The Creator of the heavens and the earth. He has made for you mates from yourselves, and for the cattle (also) mates. By this means He creates you (in the wombs). There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer. (Ash-Shura 42:11)
Lahu Maqālīdu As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'Arđi ۖ Yabsuţu Ar-Rizqa Liman Yashā'u Wa Yaqdiru ۚ 'Innahu Bikulli Shay'in `Alīmun
To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth, He enlarges provision for whom He wills, and straitens (it for whom He wills). Verily! He is the All-Knower of everything. (Ash-Shura 42:12)
Shara`a Lakum Mina Ad-Dīni Mā Waşşá Bihi Nūĥāan Wa Al-Ladhī 'Awĥaynā 'Ilayka Wa Mā Waşşaynā Bihi~ 'Ibrāhīma Wa Mūsá Wa `Īsá ۖ 'An 'Aqīmū Ad-Dīna Wa Lā Tatafarraqū Fīhi ۚ Kabura `Alá Al-Mushrikīna Mā Tad`ūhum 'Ilayhi ۚ Allāhu Yajtabī 'Ilayhi Man Yashā'u Wa Yahdī 'Ilayhi Man Yunību
He (Allāh) has ordained for you the same religion (Islām) which He ordained for Nûh (Noah), and that which We have inspired in you (O Muhammad SAW), and that which We ordained for Ibrahīm (Abraham), Mûsa (Moses) and 'Iesa (Jesus) saying you should establish religion (i.e. to do what it orders you to do practically), and make no divisions in it (religion) (i.e. various sects in religion). Intolerable for the Mushrikûn , is that to which you (O Muhammad SAW) call them. Allāh chooses for Himself whom He wills, and guides unto Himself who turns to Him in repentance and in obedience. (Ash-Shura 42:13)
Wa Mā Tafarraqū 'Illā Min Ba`di Mā Jā'ahumu Al-`Ilmu Baghyāan Baynahum ۚ Wa Lawlā Kalimatun Sabaqat MinRabbika 'Ilá 'Ajalin Musamman Laquđiya Baynahum ۚ Wa 'Inna Al-Ladhīna 'Ūrithū Al-Kitāba Min Ba`dihim Lafī Shakkin Minhu Murībin
And they divided not till after knowledge had come to them, through selfish transgression between themselves. And had it not been for a Word that went forth before from your Lord for an appointed term, the matter would have been settled between them. And verily, those who were made to inherit the Scripture [i.e. the Taurāh (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] after them (i.e. Jews and Christians) are in grave doubt concerning it (i.e. Allāh's true religion Islām or the Qur'ān). (Ash-Shura 42:14)
Falidhalika Fād`u ۖ Wa Astaqim Kamā 'Umirta ۖ Wa Lā Tattabi` 'Ahwā'ahum ۖ Wa Qul 'Āmantu Bimā 'Anzala Allāhu Min Kitābin ۖ Wa 'Umirtu Li'`dila Baynakumu ۖ Allāhu Rabbunā Wa Rabbukum ۖ Lanā 'A`mālunā Wa Lakum 'A`mālukum ۖ Lā Ĥujjata Baynanā Wa Baynakumu ۖ Allāhu Yajma`u Baynanā ۖ Wa 'Ilayhi Al-Maşīru
So unto this (religion of Islām, alone and this Qur'ān) then invite (people) (O Muhammad SAW), and Istaqim [(i.e. stand firm and straight on Islāmic Monotheism by performing all that is ordained by Allāh (good deeds, etc.), and by abstaining from all that is forbidden by Allāh (sins and evil deeds, etc.)], as you are commanded, and follow not their desires but say: "I believe in whatsoever Allāh has sent down of the Book [all the holy Books, this Qur'ān and the Books of the old from the Taurāt (Torah), or the Injeel (Gospel) or the Pages of Ibrāhim (Abraham)] and I am commanded to do justice among you, Allāh is our Lord and your Lord. For us our deeds and for you your deeds. There is no dispute between us and you. Allāh will assemble us (all), and to Him is the final return. (Ash-Shura 42:15)
Wa Al-Ladhīna Yuĥājjūna Fī Al-Lahi Min Ba`di Mā Astujība Lahu Ĥujjatuhum Dāĥiđatun `Inda Rabbihim Wa `AlayhimGhađabun Wa Lahum `AdhābunShadīdun
And those who dispute concerning Allāh (His Religion of Islāmic Monotheism, with which Muhammad SAW has been sent), after it has been accepted (by the people), of no use is their dispute before their Lord, and on them is wrath, and for them will be a severe torment . (Ash-Shura 42:16)
Al-Lahu Al-Ladhī 'Anzala Al-Kitāba Bil-Ĥaqqi Wa Al-Mīzāna ۗ Wa Mā Yudrīka La`alla As-Sā`ata Qarībun
It is Allāh Who has sent down the Book (the Qur'ān) in truth, and the Balance (i.e. to act justly). And what can make you know that perhaps the Hour is close at hand? (Ash-Shura 42:17)
Those who believe not therein seek to hasten it, while those who believe are fearful of it, and know that it is the very truth. Verily, those who dispute concerning the Hour are certainly in error far away. (Ash-Shura 42:18)
Man Kāna Yurīdu Ĥartha Al-'Ākhirati Nazid Lahu Fī Ĥarthihi ۖ Wa Man Kāna Yurīdu Ĥartha Ad-Dunyā Nu'utihi Minhā Wa Mā Lahu Fī Al-'Ākhirati Min Naşībin
Whosoever desires (with his deeds) the reward of the Hereafter, We give him increase in his reward, and whosoever desires the reward of this world (with his deeds), We give him thereof (what is written for him), and he has no portion in the Hereafter. (Ash-Shura 42:20)
'Am LahumShurakā'u Shara`ū Lahum Mina Ad-Dīni Mā Lam Ya'dhan Bihi Allāhu ۚ Wa Lawlā Kalimatu Al-Faşli Laquđiya Baynahum ۗ Wa 'Inna Až-Žālimīna Lahum `Adhābun 'Alīmun
Or have they partners with Allāh (false gods), who have instituted for them a religion which Allāh has not allowed. And had it not been for a decisive Word (gone forth already), the matter would have been judged between them. And verily, for the Zālimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers), there is a painful torment. (Ash-Shura 42:21)
Tará Až-Žālimīna Mushfiqīna Mimmā Kasabū Wa Huwa Wāqi`un Bihim ۗ Wa Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū Wa `Amilū Aş-Şāliĥāti Fī Rawđāti Al-Jannāti ۖ Lahum Mā Yashā'ūna `Inda Rabbihim ۚ Dhālika Huwa Al-Fađlu Al-Kabīru
You will see (on the Day of Resurrection), the Zālimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) fearful of that which they have earned, and it (Allāh's Torment) will surely befall them, while those who believe (in the Oneness of Allāh Islāmic Monotheism) and do righteous deeds (will be) in the flowering meadows of the Gardens (Paradise), having what they wish from their Lord. That is the supreme Grace, (Paradise). (Ash-Shura 42:22)
That is (the Paradise) whereof Allāh gives glad tidings to His slaves who believe (in the Oneness of Allāh Islāmic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds. Say (O Muhammad SAW): "No reward do I ask of you for this except to be kind to me for my kinship with you."[] And whoever earns a good righteous deed, We shall give him an increase of good in respect thereof. Verily, Allāh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Ready to appreciate (the deeds of those who are obedient to Him). (Ash-Shura 42:23)
Or say they: "He has invented a lie against Allāh?" If Allāh willed, He could have sealed your heart (so that you forget all that you know of the Qur'an). And Allāh wipes out falsehood, and establishes the truth (Islām) by His Word (this Qur'an). Verily, He knows well what (the secrets) are in the breasts (of mankind). (Ash-Shura 42:24)
Wa Yastajību Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū Wa `Amilū Aş-Şāliĥāti Wa Yazīduhum Min Fađlihi ۚ Wa Al-Kāfirūna Lahum `AdhābunShadīdun
And He answers (the invocation of) those who believe (in the Oneness of Allāh Islāmic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, and gives them increase of His Bounty. And as for the disbelievers, theirs will be a severe torment. (Ash-Shura 42:26)
Wa Law Basaţa Allāhu Ar-Rizqa Li`ibādihi Labaghaw Fī Al-'Arđi Wa Lakin Yunazzilu Biqadarin Mā Yashā'u ۚ 'Innahu Bi`ibādihi Khabīrun Başīrun
And if Allāh were to enlarge the provision for His slaves, they would surely rebel in the earth, but He sends down by measure as He wills. Verily! He is in respect of His slaves, the Well-Aware, the All-Seer (of things that benefit them). (Ash-Shura 42:27)
Wa Huwa Al-Ladhī Yunazzilu Al-Ghaytha Min Ba`di Mā Qanaţū Wa YanshuruRaĥmatahu ۚ Wa Huwa Al-Walīyu Al-Ĥamīdu
And He it is Who sends down the rain after they have despaired, and spreads abroad His Mercy. And He is the Walī (Helper, Supporter, Protector, etc.), Worthy of all Praise. (Ash-Shura 42:28)
Wa Min 'Āyātihi Khalqu As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'Arđi Wa Mā Baththa Fīhimā Min Dābbatin ۚ Wa Huwa `Alá Jam`ihim 'Idhā Yashā'u Qadīrun
And among His Ayāt (proofs, evidences, lessons, signs, etc.) is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and whatever moving (living) creatures He has dispersed in them both. And He is All-Potent over their assembling (i.e. resurrecting them on the Day of Resurrection after their death, and dispersion of their bodies) whenever He will. (Ash-Shura 42:29)
Wa Mā 'Aşābakum Min Muşībatin Fabimā Kasabat 'Aydīkum Wa Ya`fū `An Kathīrin
And whatever of misfortune befalls you, it is because of what your hands have earned. And He pardons much. (See the Qur'ān Verse 35:45). (Ash-Shura 42:30)
Wa Mā 'Antum Bimu`jizīna Fī Al-'Arđi ۖ Wa Mā Lakum Min Dūni Allāhi Min Wa Līyin Wa Lā Naşīrin
And you cannot escape from Allāh (i.e. His Punishment) in the earth, and besides Allāh you have neither any Walī (guardian or a protector) nor any helper. (Ash-Shura 42:31)
If He wills, He causes the wind to cease, then they would become motionless on the back (of the sea). Verily, in this are signs for everyone patient and grateful. (Ash-Shura 42:33)
Wa Ya`lama Al-Ladhīna Yujādilūna Fī 'Āyātinā Mā Lahum Min Maĥīşin
And those who dispute (polytheists, etc. with Our Messenger Muhammad SAW) as regards Our Ayāt (proofs, signs, verses, etc. of Islāmic Monotheism) may know that there is no place of refuge for them (from Allāh's punishment). (Ash-Shura 42:35)
Famā 'Ūtītum MinShay'in Famatā`u Al-Ĥayāati Ad-Dunyā ۖ Wa Mā `Inda Allāhi Khayrun Wa 'Abqá Lilladhīna 'Āmanū Wa `Alá Rabbihim Yatawakkalūna
So whatever you have been given is but a passing enjoyment for this worldly life, but that which is with Allāh (Paradise) is better and more lasting for those who believe (in the Oneness of Allāh Islāmic Monotheism) and put their trust in their Lord (concerning all of their affairs). (Ash-Shura 42:36)
Wa Al-Ladhīna Astajābū Lirabbihim Wa 'Aqāmū Aş-Şalāata Wa 'AmruhumShūrá Baynahum Wa Mimmā Razaqnāhum Yunfiqūna
And those who answer the Call of their Lord [i.e. to believe that He is the only One Lord (Allāh), and to worship none but Him Alone], and perform As-Salāt (Iqāmat-as-Salāt), and who (conduct) their affairs by mutual consultation, and who spend of what We have bestowed on them; (Ash-Shura 42:38)
Wa Jazā'u Sayyi'atin Sayyi'atun Mithluhā ۖ Faman `Afā Wa 'Aşlaĥa Fa'ajruhu `Alá Allāhi ۚ 'Innahu Lā Yuĥibbu Až-Žālimīna
The recompense for an evil is an evil like thereof, but whoever forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from Allāh. Verily, He likes not the Zālimûn (oppressors, polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.). (Ash-Shura 42:40)
Wa Man Yuđlili Allāhu Famā Lahu Min Wa Līyin Min Ba`dihi ۗ Wa Tará Až-Žālimīna Lammā Ra'aw Al-`Adhāba Yaqūlūna Hal 'Ilá Maraddin Min Sabīlin
And whomsoever Allāh sends astray, for him there is no Walī (protector) after Him. And you will see the Zālimûn (polytheists, wrong-doers, oppressors, etc.) when they behold the torment, they will say: "Is there any way of return (to the world)?" (Ash-Shura 42:44)
Wa Tarāhum Yu`rađūna `Alayhā Khāshi`īna Mina Adh-Dhulli Yanžurūna MinŢarfin Khafīyin ۗ Wa Qāla Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū 'Inna Al-Khāsirīna Al-Ladhīna Khasirū 'Anfusahum Wa 'Ahlīhim Yawma Al-Qiyāmati ۗ 'Alā 'Inna Až-Žālimīna Fī `Adhābin Muqīmin
And you will see them brought forward to it (Hell) made humble by disgrace , (and) looking with stealthy glance. And those who believe will say: "Verily, the losers are they who lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Verily, the Zālimûn [i.e. Al-Kāfirûn (disbelievers in Allāh, in His Oneness and in His Messenger SAW , polytheists, wrong-doers, etc.)] will be in a lasting torment. (Ash-Shura 42:45)
Astajībū Lirabbikum MinQabli 'An Ya'tiya Yawmun Lā Maradda Lahu Mina Allāhi ۚ Mā Lakum Min Malja'iin Yawma'idhin Wa Mā Lakum Min Nakīrin
Answer the Call of your Lord (i.e. accept the Islāmic Monotheism, O mankind, and jinns) before there comes from Allāh a Day which cannot be averted. You will have no refuge on that Day nor there will be for you any denying (of your crimes as they are all recorded in the Book of your deeds). (Ash-Shura 42:47)
But if they turn away (O Muhammad SAW from the Islāmic Monotheism, which you have brought to them). We have not sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as a Hafīz (protector) over them (i.e. to take care of their deeds and to recompense them). Your duty is to convey (the Message). And verily, when We cause man to taste of Mercy from Us, he rejoices thereat, but when some ill befalls them because of the deeds which their hands have sent forth, then verily, man (becomes) ingrate! (Ash-Shura 42:48)
Lillāh Mulku As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'Arđi ۚ Yakhluqu Mā Yashā'u ۚ Yahabu Liman Yashā'u 'Ināthāan Wa Yahabu Liman Yashā'u Adh-Dhukūra
To Allāh belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. He creates what He wills. He bestows female (offspring) upon whom He wills, and bestows male (offspring) upon whom He wills. (Ash-Shura 42:49)
'Aw YuzawwijuhumDhukrānāan Wa 'Ināthāan ۖ Wa Yaj`alu Man Yashā'u `Aqīmāan ۚ 'Innahu `AlīmunQadīrun
Or He bestows both males and females, and He renders barren whom He wills. Verily, He is the All-Knower and is Able to do all things. (Ash-Shura 42:50)
It is not given to any human being that Allāh should speak to him unless (it be) by Inspiration, or from behind a veil, or (that) He sends a Messenger to reveal what He wills by His Leave. Verily, He is Most High, Most Wise[] . (Ash-Shura 42:51)
Wa Kadhalika 'Awĥaynā 'Ilayka Rūĥāan Min 'Amrinā ۚ Mā Kunta Tadrī Mā Al-Kitābu Wa Lā Al-'Īmānu Wa Lakin Ja`alnāhu Nūrāan Nahdī Bihi Man Nashā'u Min `Ibādinā ۚ Wa 'Innaka Latahdī 'Ilá Şirāţin Mustaqīmin
And thus We have sent to you (O Muhammad SAW) Ruhan (an Inspiration, and a Mercy) of Our Command. You knew not what is the Book, nor what is Faith? But We have made it (this Qur'ān) a light wherewith We guide whosoever of Our slaves We will. And verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) are indeed guiding (mankind) to the Straight Path (i.e. Allāh's religion of Islāmic Monotheism). (Ash-Shura 42:52)
The Path of Allāh, to Whom belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. Verily, all the matters at the end go to Allāh (for decision). (Ash-Shura 42:53)
