In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
- We will without doubt help Our apostles and those who believe (both) in this world's life and on the Day when the Witnesses will stand forth
- The Day when no profit will it be to Wrongdoers to present their excuses but they will (only) have the Curse and the Home of Misery.
- We did aforetime give Moses the (Book of) Guidance and We gave the Book in inheritance to the Children of Israel
- A Guide and a Message to men of understanding.
- Patiently then persevere: for the Promise of Allah is true: and ask forgiveness for thy fault and celebrate the Praises of thy Lord in the evening and in the morning.
- Those who dispute about the Signs of Allah without any authority bestowed on them there is nothing in their breasts but (the quest of) greatness which they shall never attain to: seek refuge then in Allah: it is He Who hears and sees (all things).
- Assuredly the creation of the heavens and the earth is a greater (matter) than the creation of men: Yet most men understand not.
- Not equal are the blind and those who (clearly) see: nor are (equal) those who believe and work deeds of righteousness and those who do evil. Little do ye learn by admonition!
- The Hour will certainly come: therein is no doubt: yet most men believe not.
- And your Lord says: "Call on Me; I will answer your (Prayer): But those who are too arrogant to serve Me will surely find themselves in Hell in humiliation!"
- It is Allah Who has made the Night for you that ye may rest therein and the Day as that which helps (you) to see. Verily Allah is Full of Grace and Bounty to men: yet most men give no thanks.
- Such is Allah your Lord the Creator of all things there is no god but He: then how ye are deluded away from the Truth!
- Thus are deluded those who are wont to reject the Signs of Allah.
- It is Allah Who has made for you the earth as a resting place and the sky as a canopy and has given you shapes and made your shapes beautiful and has provided for you Sustenance of things pure and good such is Allah your Lord. So Glory to Allah the Lord of the Worlds!
- He is the living (One): There is no god but He: Call upon Him giving Him sincere devotion. Praise be to Allah Lord of the Worlds!
- Say: "I have been forbidden to invoke those whom ye invoke besides Allah seeing that the Clear Signs have come to me from my Lord: and I have been commanded to bow (in Islam) to the Lord of the Worlds."
- It is He Who has created you from dust then from a sperm-drop then from a leech-like clot; then does He get you out (into the light) as a child: then lets you (grow and) reach your age of full strength; then lets you become old though of you there are some who die before; and lets you reach a Term appointed: in order that ye may learn wisdom.
- It is He Who gives Life and Death; and when He decides upon an affair He says to it "Be" and it is.
- Seest thou not those that dispute concerning the signs of Allah? How are they turned away (from Reality)?
- Those who reject the Book and the (revelations) with which We sent Our apostles: But soon shall they know
- When the yokes (shall be) round their necks and the chains; they shall be dragged along
- In the boiling fetid fluid then in the Fire shall they be burned;
- Then shall it be said to them: "Where are the (deities) to which ye gave part-worship
- "In derogation of Allah?" They will reply: "They have left us in the lurch: nay we invoked not of old anything (that had real existence)." Thus does Allah leave the Unbelievers to stray.
- "That was because ye were wont to rejoice on the earth in things other than the Truth and that ye were wont to be insolent.
