In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
- And Pharaoh proclaimed among his people saying: "O my people! does not the dominion of Egypt belong to me (witness) these streams flowing underneath my (palace)? What! see ye not then?
- "Am I not better than this (Moses) who is a contemptible wretch and can scarcely express himself clearly?
- "Then why are not gold bracelets bestowed on him or (why) come (not) with him angels accompanying him in procession?"
- Thus did he make fools of his people and they obeyed him: Truly were they a people rebellious (against Allah).
- When at length they provoked Us We exacted retribution from them and We drowned them all
- And We made them (a people) of the Past and an Example to later ages.
- When (Jesus) the son of Mary is held up as an example behold thy people raise a clamor thereat (in ridicule)!
- And they say " Are Our gods best or He?" This they set forth to thee only by way of disputation: yea they are a contentious people.
- He was no more than a servant: We granted Our favor to him and We made him an example to the Children of Israel.
- And if it were Our Will We could make angels from amongst you succeeding each other on the earth.
- And (Jesus) shall be a Sign (for the coming of) the Hour (of Judgment): therefore have no doubt about the (Hour) but follow ye Me: this is a Straight Way.
- Let not the Evil One hinder you: for he is to you an enemy avowed.
- When Jesus came with Clear Signs he said: "Now have I come to you with Wisdom and in order to make clear to you some of the (points) on which ye dispute: therefore fear Allah and obey me.
- "For Allah; He is my Lord and your Lord: so worship ye Him: this is a Straight Way."
- But sects from among themselves fell into disagreement: then woe to the wrongdoers from the Penalty of a Grievous Day!
- Do they only wait for the Hour that it should come on them all of a sudden while they perceive not?
- Friends on that Day will be foes one to another except the Righteous.
- My devotees! no fear shall be on you that Day nor shall ye grieve
- (Being) those who have believed in Our Signs and bowed (their wills to Ours) in Islam.
- Enter ye the Garden ye and your wives in (beauty and) rejoicing.
- To them will be passed round dishes and goblets of gold: there will be there all that the souls could desire all that the eyes could delight in: and ye shall abide therein (for aye).
- Such will be the Garden of which ye are made heirs for your (good) deeds (in life).
- Ye shall have therein abundance of fruit from which ye shall have satisfaction.
- The Sinners will be in the Punishment of Hell to dwell therein (for aye):
- Nowise will the (punishment) be lightened for them and in despair will they be there overwhelmed.
