If it had been Our will, We would have sent a warner to every town,

so do not give in to the disbelievers: strive hard against them with this Quran.

It is He who released the two bodies of flowing water, one sweet and fresh and the other salty and bitter, and put an insurmountable barrier between them.

It is He who creates human beings from fluid, then makes them kin by blood and marriage: your Lord is all powerful!

Yet instead of God they worship things that can neither benefit nor harm them: the disbeliever has always turned his back on his Lord.

We sent you only to give good news and warning.

Say, ‘I am not asking for any reward for it, but anyone who wishes should take a path to his Lord.’

Put your trust in the Living [God] who never dies, and celebrate His praise. He knows the sins of His servants well enough:

it is He who created the heavens and earth and what is between them in six Days, and then established Himself on the throne- He is the Lord of Mercy; He is the Best Informed.

Yet when they are told, ‘Bow down before the Lord of Mercy,’ they say, ‘What is the Lord of Mercy? Should we bow down before anything you command?’ and they turn even further away.

وَلَوْ شِئْنَا لَبَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ قَرْيَةࣲ نَّذِيرࣰا

فَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ وَجَٰهِدْهُم بِهِۦ جِهَادࣰا كَبِيرࣰا

۞ وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي مَرَجَ ٱلْبَحْرَيْنِ هَٰذَا عَذْبࣱ فُرَاتࣱ وَهَٰذَا مِلْحٌ أُجَاجࣱ وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَهُمَا بَرْزَخࣰا وَحِجْرࣰا مَّحْجُورࣰا

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ ٱلْمَآءِ بَشَرࣰا فَجَعَلَهُۥ نَسَبࣰا وَصِهْرࣰاۗ وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ قَدِيرࣰا

وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُهُمْ وَلَا يَضُرُّهُمْۗ وَكَانَ ٱلْكَافِرُ عَلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ ظَهِيرࣰا

وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَٰكَ إِلَّا مُبَشِّرࣰا وَنَذِيرࣰا

قُلْ مَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ إِلَّا مَن شَآءَ أَن يَتَّخِذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِيلࣰا

وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱلْحَيِّ ٱلَّذِي لَا يَمُوتُ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِهِۦۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِهِۦ بِذُنُوبِ عِبَادِهِۦ خَبِيرًا

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامࣲ ثُمَّ ٱسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِۖ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ فَسْـَٔلْ بِهِۦ خَبِيرࣰا

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ قَالُوا۟ وَمَا ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ أَنَسْجُدُ لِمَا تَأْمُرُنَا وَزَادَهُمْ نُفُورࣰا۩

Exalted is He who put constellations in the heavens, a radiant light, and an illuminating moon-

it is He who made the night and day follow each other- so anyone who wishes may be mindful or show gratitude.

The servants of the Lord of Mercy are those who walk humbly on the earth, and who, when the foolish address them, reply, ‘Peace’;

those who spend the night bowed down or standing, worshipping their Lord,

who plead, ‘Our Lord, turn away from us the suffering of Hell, for it is a dreadful torment to suffer!

It is an evil home, a foul resting place!’

They are those who are neither wasteful nor niggardly when they spend, but keep to a just balance;

those who never invoke any other deity beside God, nor take a life, which God has made sacred, except in the pursuit of justice, nor commit adultery. (Whoever does these things will face the penalties:

their torment will be doubled on the Day of Resurrection, and they will remain in torment, disgraced,

except those who repent, believe, and do good deeds: God will change the evil deeds of such people into good ones. He is most forgiving, most merciful.

People who repent and do good deeds truly return to God.)

[The servants of the Lord of Mercy are] those who do not give false testimony, and who, when they see some frivolity, pass by with dignity;

who, when reminded of their Lord’s signs, do not turn a deaf ear and a blind eye to them;

those who pray, ‘Our Lord, give us joy in our spouses and offspring. Make us good examples to those who are aware of You’.

These servants will be rewarded with the highest place in Paradise for their steadfastness. There they will be met with greetings and peace.

There they will stay- a happy home and resting place!

[Prophet, tell the disbelievers], ‘What are you to my Lord without your supplication? But since you have written offthe truth as lies, the inevitable will happen.’

تَبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ بُرُوجࣰا وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا سِرَٰجࣰا وَقَمَرࣰا مُّنِيرࣰا

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ خِلْفَةࣰ لِّمَنْ أَرَادَ أَن يَذَّكَّرَ أَوْ أَرَادَ شُكُورࣰا

وَٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا ٱصْرِفْ عَنَّا عَذَابَ جَهَنَّمَۖ إِنَّ عَذَابَهَا كَانَ غَرَامًا

إِنَّهَا سَآءَتْ مُسْتَقَرࣰّا وَمُقَامࣰا

وَٱلَّذِينَ إِذَآ أَنفَقُوا۟ لَمْ يُسْرِفُوا۟ وَلَمْ يَقْتُرُوا۟ وَكَانَ بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ قَوَامࣰا

وَٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ ٱلنَّفْسَ ٱلَّتِي حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَۚ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثَامࣰا

يُضَٰعَفْ لَهُ ٱلْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ وَيَخْلُدْ فِيهِۦ مُهَانًا

إِلَّا مَن تَابَ وَءَامَنَ وَعَمِلَ عَمَلࣰا صَٰلِحࣰا فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ يُبَدِّلُ ٱللَّهُ سَيِّـَٔاتِهِمْ حَسَنَٰتࣲۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورࣰا رَّحِيمࣰا

وَمَن تَابَ وَعَمِلَ صَٰلِحࣰا فَإِنَّهُۥ يَتُوبُ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ مَتَابࣰا

وَٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَشْهَدُونَ ٱلزُّورَ وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِٱللَّغْوِ مَرُّوا۟ كِرَامࣰا

وَٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ذُكِّرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ لَمْ يَخِرُّوا۟ عَلَيْهَا صُمࣰّا وَعُمْيَانࣰا

وَٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَٰجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّٰتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنࣲ وَٱجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ يُجْزَوْنَ ٱلْغُرْفَةَ بِمَا صَبَرُوا۟ وَيُلَقَّوْنَ فِيهَا تَحِيَّةࣰ وَسَلَٰمًا

خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَاۚ حَسُنَتْ مُسْتَقَرࣰّا وَمُقَامࣰا

قُلْ مَا يَعْبَؤُا۟ بِكُمْ رَبِّي لَوْلَا دُعَآؤُكُمْۖ فَقَدْ كَذَّبْتُمْ فَسَوْفَ يَكُونُ لِزَامَۢا
