Sura 68: AL-QALAM (THE PEN) - Juz' 29 - Translation Pickthall

قَالُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا إِنَّا كُنَّا طَاغِينَ ﴿۳۱﴾
They said: Alas for us! In truth we were outrageous. (31)
عَسَى رَبُّنَا أَنْ يُبْدِلَنَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا رَاغِبُونَ ﴿۳۲﴾
It may be that our Lord will give us better than this in place thereof. Lo! we beseech our Lord. (32)
كَذَلِكَ الْعَذَابُ وَلَعَذَابُ الْآخِرَةِ أَكْبَرُ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿۳۳﴾
Such was the punishment. And verily the punishment of the Hereafter is greater if they did but know. (33)
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ ﴿۳۴﴾
Lo! for those who keep from evil are gardens of bliss with their Lord. (34)
أَفَنَجْعَلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ كَالْمُجْرِمِينَ ﴿۳۵﴾
Shall We then treat those who have surrendered as We treat the guilty? (35)
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ ﴿۳۶﴾
What aileth you? How foolishly ye judge! (36)
أَمْ لَكُمْ كِتَابٌ فِيهِ تَدْرُسُونَ ﴿۳۷﴾
Or have ye a scripture wherein ye learn (37)
إِنَّ لَكُمْ فِيهِ لَمَا تَخَيَّرُونَ ﴿۳۸﴾
That ye shall indeed have all that ye choose? (38)
أَمْ لَكُمْ أَيْمَانٌ عَلَيْنَا بَالِغَةٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّ لَكُمْ لَمَا تَحْكُمُونَ ﴿۳۹﴾
Or have ye a covenant on oath from Us that reacheth to the Day of Judgment, that yours shall be all that ye ordain? (39)
سَلْهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ بِذَلِكَ زَعِيمٌ ﴿۴۰﴾
Ask them (O Muhammad) which of them will vouch for that! (40)
