Sura 21: AL-ANBIYA (THE PROPHETS) - Juz' 17 - Translation Qarib

يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضَى وَهُمْ مِنْ خَشْيَتِهِ مُشْفِقُونَ ﴿۲۸﴾
He knows what is before them and what is behind them. They intercede for none except for him whom He is well pleased, and they tremble in awe of Him. (28)
وَمَنْ يَقُلْ مِنْهُمْ إِنِّي إِلَهٌ مِنْ دُونِهِ فَذَلِكَ نَجْزِيهِ جَهَنَّمَ كَذَلِكَ نَجْزِي الظَّالِمِينَ ﴿۲۹﴾
If any one of them says: 'I am a god other than Him, ' We will recompense him with Gehenna (Hell). As such We recompense the harmdoers. (29)
أَوَلَمْ يَرَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ كَانَتَا رَتْقًا فَفَتَقْنَاهُمَا وَجَعَلْنَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَيٍّ أَفَلَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿۳۰﴾
Have the unbelievers not seen that the heavens and the earth were sewn up as one (solid) mass, then We unstitched them, and that We made every living thing of water? Will they not believe! (30)
وَجَعَلْنَا فِي الْأَرْضِ رَوَاسِيَ أَنْ تَمِيدَ بِهِمْ وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا فِجَاجًا سُبُلًا لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ ﴿۳۱﴾
We set firm mountains upon the earth lest it should shake with them, and We placed therein ravines to be paths so that they might be guided. (31)
وَجَعَلْنَا السَّمَاءَ سَقْفًا مَحْفُوظًا وَهُمْ عَنْ آيَاتِهَا مُعْرِضُونَ ﴿۳۲﴾
We established the heaven as a well protected roof, yet they still turn away from its signs. (32)
وَهُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ كُلٌّ فِي فَلَكٍ يَسْبَحُونَ ﴿۳۳﴾
It is He who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; each floating in an orbit. (33)
وَمَا جَعَلْنَا لِبَشَرٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ الْخُلْدَ أَفَإِنْ مِتَّ فَهُمُ الْخَالِدُونَ ﴿۳۴﴾
We have never assigned immortality to a human before you, therefore, if you yourself die, will they live for ever? (34)
كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ وَنَبْلُوكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً وَإِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُونَ ﴿۳۵﴾
Every soul shall taste death. We will try you with a trial of evil and good. Then, to Us you shall be returned. (35)
وَإِذَا رَآكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلَّا هُزُوًا أَهَذَا الَّذِي يَذْكُرُ آلِهَتَكُمْ وَهُمْ بِذِكْرِ الرَّحْمَنِ هُمْ كَافِرُونَ ﴿۳۶﴾
When the unbelievers see you, they take you only for mockery, saying: 'Is this he who talks about your gods? ' While they are unbelievers in the Remembrance of the Merciful. (36)
خُلِقَ الْإِنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍ سَأُرِيكُمْ آيَاتِي فَلَا تَسْتَعْجِلُونِ ﴿۳۷﴾
The human was created of haste. Indeed, I will show you My signs; so do not ask Me to hasten them. (37)
