3

Thus reveals to thee, and to those before thee, God, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

4

To Him belongs what is in the heavens and what is in the earth; and He is the Exalted, the Great.

5

The heavens are nigh rent from above themselves, and the angels give glory with the praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those upon the earth. In truth, God, He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.

6

And those who take allies besides Him: God is custodian over them; and thou art not a guardian over them.

7

And thus We have revealed to thee an Arabic recitation, that thou warn the mother of cities and whoso is around her, and thou warn of the Day of Gathering whereof there is no doubt: a faction will be in the Garden, and a faction in the Inferno.

8

And had God willed, He would have made them one community; but He makes whom He wills enter into His mercy; and the wrongdoers have neither ally nor helper.

9

If they have taken allies besides Him: then God, He is the Ally, and He gives life to the dead, and He is over all things powerful.

10

And that wherein you differ in anything, the judgment thereof is to God: “That is God, my Lord; in whom I place my trust, and to whom I turn.”

11

The Originator of the Heavens and the Earth has made for you of yourselves pairs, and of the cattle pairs; He creates you thereby — there is nothing like Him — and He is the Hearer, the Seeing.

12

To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth. He expands provision for whom He wills, and He straitens; He knows all things.

13

He ordained for you of doctrine what He enjoined upon Noah, and that We have revealed to thee, and what We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses and Jesus: “Uphold the doctrine, and be not divided therein.” Difficult for the idolaters is that to which thou invitest them. God chooses for Himself whom He wills, and guides to Himself him who turns in repentance.

14

And they became divided only after knowledge came to them, through sectarian zealotry between them. And were it not for a word that preceded from thy Lord to a stated term, it would have been concluded between them. And those who were caused to inherit the Writ after them are in sceptical doubt concerning it.

15

So to that then call thou. And keep thou to the path as thou art commanded, and follow thou not their vain desires, but say thou: “I believe in what God sent down of Writ, and I have been commanded to be just among you. God is our Lord and your Lord. We have our works, and you have your works; there is no argument between us and you; God will bring us together, and to Him is the journey’s end.”

16

And those who dispute concerning God after that answer has been made to him: their argument has no weight with their Lord; and upon them is wrath, and they have a severe punishment.

17

God it is who has sent down the Writ with the truth and the balance. And what can make thee know that the Hour might be nigh!

18

Those who believe not in it seek to hasten it; but those who heed warning are in dread of it and know that it is the truth. Nay, those who are in doubt concerning the Hour are in extreme error.

19

God is subtle with His servants; He provides for whom He wills. And He is the Strong, the Exalted in Might.

20

Whoso desires the harvest of the Hereafter, We increase him in his harvest. And whoso desires the harvest of the World, We give him thereof — and he has no portion in the Hereafter.

21

If they have partners which ordained for them of doctrine that for which God has not given leave[...]. And had it not been for the word of decision, it would have been concluded between them; and the wrongdoers have a painful punishment.

22

Thou wilt see the wrongdoers fearful of what they have earned; and it will befall them. And those who heed warning and do righteous deeds will be in the lush meadows of the Gardens; they will have what they wish with their Lord. That is the great favour,

23

That of which God gives glad tidings to His servants who heed warning and do righteous deeds. Say thou: “I ask of you for it no reward save love among kin.” And whoso commits a good deed, We will increase him in good therein; God is forgiving and appreciative.

24

If they say: “He has invented a lie about God,” — but if God wills, He will seal thy heart; and God eliminates vanity and establishes truth by His words; He knows what is in the breasts.

25

And He it is that accepts repentance from His servants and pardons evil deeds; and He knows what you do.

26

And He responds to those who heed warning and do righteous deeds, and increases them of His bounty. And the false claimers of guidance, they have a severe punishment.

27

And had God expanded the provision for His servants, they would have oppressed in the earth; but He sends down in measure what He wills; He is of His servants aware and seeing.

28

And He it is that sends down the rain after they have despaired, and unfurls His mercy; and He is the Ally, the Praiseworthy.

29

And among His proofs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and what He has spread therein of creatures; and He has power to gather them when He wills.

30

And what befalls you of calamity: it is for what your hands have earned — but He pardons much —

31

And you cannot escape in the earth; and you have, besides God, neither ally nor helper.

32

And among His proofs are the ships in the sea like banners;

33

If He wills, He calms the wind, and they remain motionless on its back — in that are proofs for everyone patient and grateful —

34

Or He wrecks them for what they have earned — but He pardons much —

35

And that those who dispute concerning Our proofs might know they have no place of refuge.

36

And what you have been given of anything is the enjoyment of the life of this world; but what is with God is better and more enduring for those who heed warning and in their Lord place their trust,

37

And those who avoid the enormities of sin and sexual immoralities, and when wroth they forgive,

38

And those who respond to their Lord, and uphold the duty, and their affair is by consultation between them, and of what We have provided them they spend.

39

And those who, when sectarian zealotry befalls them, help themselves:

40

(And the reward of evil is evil the like thereof; but whoso pardons and makes right, his reward is upon God; He loves not the wrongdoers.

41

And whoso helps himself after being wronged, those: there is no path against them.

42

There is but a path against those who wrong men and oppress in the earth without cause: those have a painful punishment.)

43

And whoso is patient and forgives: that is among the resolution of affairs.

44

And whom God sends astray, there is for him no ally after Him. And thou wilt see the wrongdoers, when they see the punishment, saying: “Is there any path of return?”

45

And thou wilt see them being exposed to it, humble from weakness, looking on with a furtive glance; and those who heed warning will say: “The losers are those who lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection”; in truth, the wrongdoers are in lasting punishment.

46

And they have no allies to help them besides God; and whom God sends astray, for him there is no path.

47

Respond to your Lord before there comes a day there is no repelling from God; you will have no refuge that day, nor will there be for you any denial.

48

And if they turn away — We sent thee not as a custodian over them; upon thee is only the notification. And when We let man taste mercy from Us, he exults thereat; but if evil befalls them because of what their hands sent ahead, then is man ungrateful.

49

To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; He creates what He wills; He gives to whom He wills females, and He gives to whom He wills males,

50

Or He couples them, males and females; and He makes whom He wills barren. He is knowing and powerful.

51

And it is not for a mortal that God should speak to him save by revelation or from behind a partition, or that He send a messenger and that he reveal, by His leave, what He wills; He is exalted and wise.

52

And thus We have revealed to thee a Spirit of Our command. Thou knewest not what the Writ was, or faith, but We made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our servants. And thou — thou guidest to a straight path:

53

The path of God, to whom belongs what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. In truth, to God do all matters come.
