Sura 36: YA-SEEN (YA-SEEN) - Juz' 22, 23 - Translation Pickthall

اتَّبِعُوا مَنْ لَا يَسْأَلُكُمْ أَجْرًا وَهُمْ مُهْتَدُونَ ﴿۲۱﴾
Follow those who ask of you no fee, and who are rightly guided. (21)
وَمَا لِيَ لَا أَعْبُدُ الَّذِي فَطَرَنِي وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ ﴿۲۲﴾
For what cause should I not serve Him Who hath created me, and unto Whom ye will be brought back? (22)
أَأَتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ آلِهَةً إِنْ يُرِدْنِ الرَّحْمَنُ بِضُرٍّ لَا تُغْنِ عَنِّي شَفَاعَتُهُمْ شَيْئًا وَلَا يُنْقِذُونِ ﴿۲۳﴾
Shall I take (other) gods in place of Him when, if the Beneficent should wish me any harm, their intercession will avail me naught, nor can they save? (23)
إِنِّي إِذًا لَفِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ ﴿۲۴﴾
Then truly I should be in error manifest. (24)
إِنِّي آمَنْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ فَاسْمَعُونِ ﴿۲۵﴾
Lo! I have believed in your Lord, so hear me! (25)
قِيلَ ادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ يَا لَيْتَ قَوْمِي يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿۲۶﴾
It was said (unto him): Enter paradise. He said: Would that my people knew (26)
بِمَا غَفَرَ لِي رَبِّي وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ الْمُكْرَمِينَ ﴿۲۷﴾
With what (munificence) my Lord hath pardoned me and made me of the honoured ones! (27)
وَمَا أَنْزَلْنَا عَلَى قَوْمِهِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ جُنْدٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَمَا كُنَّا مُنْزِلِينَ ﴿۲۸﴾
We sent not down against his people after him a host from heaven, nor do We ever send. (28)
إِنْ كَانَتْ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ خَامِدُونَ ﴿۲۹﴾
It was but one Shout, and lo! they were extinct. (29)
يَا حَسْرَةً عَلَى الْعِبَادِ مَا يَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ ﴿۳۰﴾
Ah, the anguish for the bondmen! Never came there unto them a messenger but they did mock him! (30)
