Sura 37: AS-SAAFFAT (THOSE WHO SET THE RANKS) - Juz' 23 - Translation Shakir

فَإِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ ﴿۱۶۱﴾
So surely you and what you worship, (161)
مَا أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفَاتِنِينَ ﴿۱۶۲﴾
Not against Him can you cause (any) to fall into trial, (162)
إِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ الْجَحِيمِ ﴿۱۶۳﴾
Save him who will go to hell (163)
وَمَا مِنَّا إِلَّا لَهُ مَقَامٌ مَعْلُومٌ ﴿۱۶۴﴾
And there is none of us but has an assigned place, (164)
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الصَّافُّونَ ﴿۱۶۵﴾
And most surely we are they who draw themselves out in ranks, (165)
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْمُسَبِّحُونَ ﴿۱۶۶﴾
And we are most surely they who declare the glory (of Allah) (166)
وَإِنْ كَانُوا لَيَقُولُونَ ﴿۱۶۷﴾
And surely they used to say: (167)
لَوْ أَنَّ عِنْدَنَا ذِكْرًا مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿۱۶۸﴾
Had we a reminder from those of yore, (168)
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ ﴿۱۶۹﴾
We would certainly have been the servants of Allah-- the purified ones (169)
فَكَفَرُوا بِهِ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿۱۷۰﴾
But (now) they disbelieve in it, so they will come to know (170)
