15:1
Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the signs of the Book and a manifest Qur’an
15:2
Much will the faithless wish that they had been muslims
15:3
Leave them to eat and enjoy and to be diverted by longings. Soon they will know
15:4
We did not destroy any town but that it had a known term
15:5
No nation can advance its time nor can it defer it
15:6
They said, ‘O you, to whom the Reminder has been sent down, you are indeed crazy
15:7
Why do you not bring us the angels should you be truthful?!’
15:8
We do not send down the angels except with due reason, and then they will not be granted any respite
15:9
Indeed We have sent down the Reminder, and indeed We will preserve it
15:10
Certainly We sent [apostles] before you to former communities
15:11
and there did not come to them any apostle but that they used to deride him
15:12
That is how We let it pass through the hearts of the guilty
15:13
they do not believe in it, and the precedent of the ancients has already passed
15:14
Were We to open for them a gate of the sky, so that they could go on ascending through it
15:15
they would surely say, ‘Indeed a spell has been cast on our eyes; rather we are a bewitched lot.’
15:16
Certainly We have appointed houses in the sky and adorned them for the onlookers
15:17
and We have guarded them from every outcast Satan
15:18
except someone who may eavesdrop, whereat there pursues him a manifest flame
15:19
And We spread out the earth, and cast in it firm mountains, and We grew in it every kind of balanced thing
15:20
and made in it [various] means of livelihood for you and for those whom you do not provide for
15:21
There is not a thing but that its sources are with Us, and We do not send it down except in a known measure
15:22
And We send the fertilizing winds and send down water from the sky providing it for you to drink and you are not maintainers of its resources
15:23
Indeed it is We who give life and bring death and We are the inheritors
15:24
Certainly We know the predecessors among you and certainly We know the successors
15:25
and indeed it is your Lord who will resurrect them. Indeed He is all-wise, all-knowing
15:26
Certainly We created man out of a dry clay [drawn] from an aging mud
15:27
and We created the jinn earlier out of a piercing fire
15:28
When your Lord said to the angels, ‘Indeed I am going to create a human out of a dry clay [drawn] from an aging mud
15:29
So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My spirit, then fall down in prostration before him.’
15:30
Thereat the angels prostrated, all of them together
15:31
but not Iblis: he refused to be among those who prostrated
15:32
He said, ‘O Iblis! What kept you from being among those who have prostrated?’
15:33
Said he, ‘I will not prostrate before a human whom You have created out of a dry clay [drawn] from an aging mud.’
15:34
He said, ‘Begone hence, for you are indeed an outcast
15:35
and indeed the curse shall lie on you until the Day of Retribution.’
15:36
He said, ‘My Lord! Respite me till the day they will be resurrected.’
15:37
Said He, ‘You are indeed among the reprieve
15:38
until the day of the known time.’
15:39
He said, ‘My Lord! As You have consigned me to perversity, I will surely glamorize [evil] for them on the earth, and I will surely pervert them, al
15:40
except Your exclusive servants among them.’
15:41
He said, ‘This is the path [leading] straight to Me
15:42
Indeed as for My servants you do not have any authority over them, except the perverse who follow you
15:43
and indeed hell is the tryst of them all
15:44
It has seven gates, and to each gate belongs a separate portion of them.’
15:45
Indeed the Godwary will be amid gardens and springs
15:46
‘‘Enter it in peace and safety!’&rsquo
15:47
We will remove whatever rancour there is in their breasts; [intimate like] brothers, [they will be reclining] on couches, facing one another
15:48
Therein neither weariness shall touch them, nor will they [ever] be expelled from it
15:49
Inform my servants that I am indeed the All-forgiving, the All-merciful
15:50
and that My punishment is a painful punishment
15:51
And inform them about the guests of Abraham
15:52
when they entered into his presence and said, ‘Peace!’ He said, ‘We are indeed afraid of you.’
15:53
They said, ‘Do not be afraid. Indeed we give you the good news of a wise son.’
15:54
He said, ‘Do you give me good news though old age has befallen me? What is the good news that you bring me?’
15:55
They said, ‘We bring you good news in truth; so do not be among the despondent.’
15:56
He said, ‘Who despairs of his Lord’s mercy except those who are astray?!’
15:57
He said, ‘O messengers, what is now your errand?’
15:58
They said, ‘We have been sent toward a guilty people
15:59
[who shall perish] except the family of Lot. We will indeed deliver all of them
15:60
except his wife, [who], We have ordained, will indeed be among those who remain behind.’
15:61
So when the messengers came to Lot’s family
15:62
he said, ‘You are indeed strangers [to me].&rsquo
15:63
They said, ‘Rather we bring you what they used to doubt
15:64
We bring you the truth, and indeed we speak truly
15:65
Take your family in a watch of the night; and follow in their rear, and none of you should turn round, and proceed as you are bidden.’
15:66
We apprised him of the matter that these will be rooted out by dawn
15:67
The people of the city came, rejoicing
15:68
He said, ‘These are indeed my guests. Do not bring dishonour on me
15:69
Be wary of Allah and do not humiliate me.’
15:70
They said, ‘Did we not forbid you from [defending] strangers?’
15:71
He said, ‘These are my daughters, [marry them] if you should do anything.’
15:72
By your life, they were bewildered in their drunkenness
15:73
So the Cry seized them at sunrise
15:74
and We made its topmost part its nethermost, and rained on them stones of shale
15:75
There are indeed signs in that for the percipient
15:76
Indeed it is on a standing road
15:77
and there is indeed a sign in that for the faithful
15:78
Indeed the inhabitants of Aykah were wrongdoers
15:79
So We took vengeance on them, and indeed the two of them are on an open highway
15:80
Certainly the inhabitants of Ḥijr denied the apostles
15:81
We had given them Our signs but they disregarded them
15:82
They used to hew out dwellings from mountains feeling secure
15:83
So the Cry seized them at dawn
15:84
and what they used to earn did not avail them
15:85
We did not create the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them except with reason, and indeed the Hour is bound to come. So forbear with a graceful forbearance
15:86
Indeed your Lord is the All-creator, the All-knowing
15:87
Certainly We have given you [the surah of] the seven oft-repeated verses and the great Qur’an
15:88
Do not extend your glance toward what We have provided to certain groups of them, and do not grieve for them, and lower your wing to the faithful
15:89
and say, ‘I am indeed a manifest warner.’
15:90
Even as We sent down on the dividers
15:91
who reduced the Qur’an into pieces
15:92
by your Lord, We will question them al
15:93
concerning what they used to do
15:94
So proclaim what you have been commanded, and turn away from the polytheists
15:95
Indeed We will suffice you against the derider
15:96
—those who set up besides Allah another god. Soon they will know
15:97
Certainly We know that you become upset because of what they say
15:98
So celebrate the praise of your Lord and be among those who prostrate
15:99
and worship your Lord until certainty comes to you
