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

إِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ الْجَحِيمِ ﴿۱۶۳﴾
except for he who shall roast in Hell. (163)
وَمَا مِنَّا إِلَّا لَهُ مَقَامٌ مَعْلُومٌ ﴿۱۶۴﴾
(Gabriel said to the Prophet): 'Each of us has a known place. (164)
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الصَّافُّونَ ﴿۱۶۵﴾
We are surely those who are arranged in ranks. (165)
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْمُسَبِّحُونَ ﴿۱۶۶﴾
And we are they who exalt (Allah). ' (166)
وَإِنْ كَانُوا لَيَقُولُونَ ﴿۱۶۷﴾
What, would they then say: (167)
لَوْ أَنَّ عِنْدَنَا ذِكْرًا مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿۱۶۸﴾
'If only we had a reminder from the ancients, (168)
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ ﴿۱۶۹﴾
we would have been sincere worshipers of Allah. ' (169)
فَكَفَرُوا بِهِ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿۱۷۰﴾
But they disbelieve in it (the Koran), but soon they shall know! (170)
وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا الْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿۱۷۱﴾
Our Word had already preceded Our worshipers, the Messengers, (171)
إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ الْمَنْصُورُونَ ﴿۱۷۲﴾
that they shall receive Our help (172)
