29:1  A.L.M
29:2  Did the people think that they will be left to Say: "We believe" without being put to the tes
29:3  While We had tested those before them, so that God would know those who are truthful and so that He would know the liars
29:4  Or did those who sinned think that they would be ahead of Us Miserable indeed is their judgment
29:5  Whosoever looks forward to meeting God, then God's meeting will come. And He is the Hearer, the Knowledgeable
29:6  And whosoever strives then he is only striving for himself; for God is in no need of the worlds
29:7  And those who believed and did good works, We will cancel their sins and We will reward them in the best for what they did
29:8  And We instructed the human to be good to his parents. But if they strive to make you set up partners with Me, then do not obey them. To Me are all your destinies, and I will inform you of what you used to do
29:9  And those who believed and did good works, We will admit them with the righteous
29:10  And from among the people are those who Say: "We believe in God," but if he is harmed in the sake of God, he equates the persecution inflicted by the people with God's punishment! And if a victory comes from your Lord, he says: "We were with you!" Is God not fully aware of what is inside the chests of the world
29:11  God is fully aware of those who believed, and He is fully aware of the hypocrites
29:12  And those who rejected said to those who believed: "Follow our path and we will carry your sins." But they cannot carry anything from their sins, they are liars
29:13  They will carry their own burdens as well as burdens with their burdens, and they will be asked on the Day of Resurrection regarding what they fabricated
29:14  And We had sent Noah to his people, so he stayed with them one thousand years less fifty calendar years. Then the flood took them while they were wicked
29:15  So We saved him and the people on the ship, and We made it a sign for the worlds
29:16  And Abraham when he said to his people: "Serve God and be aware of Him, that is better for you if you knew."
29:17  "You are worshipping nothing but idols besides Him, and you are creating fabrications. Those that you worship besides God do not possess for you any provisions, so seek with God the provision and serve Him and be thankful to Him; to Him you will return."
29:18  "And if you disbelieve, then nations before you have also disbelieved." The messenger is only required to deliver clearly
29:19  Did they not observe how God initiates the creation then He returns it All that for God is easy to do
29:20  Say: "Roam the Earth and observe how the creation was initiated. Thus God will establish the final creation. God is capable of all things."
29:21  "God will punish whom He wills and He will have mercy on whom He wills, and to Him you will return."
29:22  "And you will not be able to escape this fact, on Earth or in the heavens, nor do you have besides God any ally or victor."
29:23  And those who rejected God's revelations and in meeting Him, they have forsaken My mercy, and they will have a painful retribution
29:24  But the only response from his people was their saying: "Kill him, or burn him." But God saved him from the fire. In this are signs for a people who believe
29:25  And he said: "You have taken idols besides God in order to preserve some friendship among you in this worldly life. But then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will disown one another, and curse one another. Your destiny is Hell, and you will have no victors."
29:26  Thus, Lot believed with him and said: "I am emigrating to my Lord. He is the Noble, the Wise."
29:27  And We granted him Isaac and Jacob, and We made within his progeny the prophethood and the Scripture. And We gave him his reward in this world, and in the Hereafter he is among the righteous
29:28  And Lot, when he said to his people: "You commit a lewdness that no others in the world have done before!"
29:29  "You sexually approach men, and you cut off the lineage, and you bring all vice to your society." But the only response from his people was to Say: "Bring us God's retribution, if you are being truthful!"
29:30  He said: "My Lord, grant me victory over the wicked people."
29:31  And when Our messengers came to Abraham with good news, they then said: "We are to destroy the people of such a town, for its people have been wicked."
29:32  He said: "But Lot is in it!" They said: "We are fully aware of who is in it. We will save him and his family, except his wife; she is of those doomed."
29:33  Thus when Our messengers came to Lot, they were mistreated, and he was embarrassed towards them. And they said: "Do not fear, and do not be saddened. We will save you and your family, except for your wife; she is of those doomed."
29:34  "We will send down upon the people of this town an affliction from the sky, as a consequence of their wickedness."
29:35  And We left remains of it as a clear sign for a people who understand
29:36  And to Median was their brother Shu'ayb. He said: "O my people, serve God and seek the Last Day, and do not roam the Earth corrupting."
29:37  But they denied him, thus the Earthquake took them; they were then left dead in their homes
29:38  And 'Aad and Thamud. Much was made apparent to you from their dwellings. The devil had adorned their works in their eyes, thus he diverted them from the path, even though they could see
29:39  And Qaaroon, and Pharaoh, and Haamaan; Moses went to them with clear proofs. But they became arrogant in the land, and they were not the first
29:40  We took each by his sins. Some of them We sent upon him violent winds, some of them were taken by the scream, some of them We caused the Earth to swallow, and some of them We drowned. God is not the One who wronged them; it is they who wronged themselves
29:41  The example of those who take allies besides God is like the spider how it makes a home; and the weakest home is the home of the spider, if they only knew
29:42  God knows that what they are calling on besides Him is nothing. He is the Noble, the Wise
29:43  Such are the examples We cite for the people, but none comprehend except the knowledgeable
29:44  God created the heavens and the Earth, with truth. In that is a sign for the faithful
29:45  Recite what is inspired to thou of the Scripture, and hold the contact-method; for the contact-method prohibits evil and vice, and the remembrance of God is the greatest. God knows everything you do
29:46  And do not argue with the people of the Scripture except in the best manner; except for those who are wicked amongst them; and Say: "We believe in what was revealed to us and in what was revealed to you, and our god and your god is the same; to Him we surrender."
29:47  And similarly, We have sent down to you the Book. Thus, those whom We have given the Scripture will believe in it. Also, some of your people will believe in it. The only ones who mock Our revelations are the rejecters
29:48  You were not reciting any scripture before this, nor were you writing one down by your hand. In that case, the doubters would have had reason
29:49  In fact, it is a clear revelation in the chests of those who have been given knowledge. And it is only the wicked who doubt Our revelations
29:50  And they said: "If only signs would come down to him from his Lord!" Say: "All signs are with God, and I am but a clear warner."
29:51  Is it not enough for them that We have sent down to you the Scripture, being recited to them In that is a mercy and a reminder for people who believe
29:52  Say: "God is enough as a witness between me and you. He knows what is in the heavens and the Earth. As for those who believe in falsehood and reject God, they are the losers."
29:53  And they hasten you for the retribution! If it were not for a predetermined appointment, the retribution would have come to them. It will come to them suddenly, when they do not expect
29:54  They hasten you for the retribution; while Hell surrounds the rejecters
29:55  The Day will come when the retribution overwhelms them, from above them and from beneath their feet; and He will Say: "Taste the results of what you used to do!"
29:56  "O My servants who believed, My Earth is spacious, so serve only Me."
29:57  Every soul will taste death, then to Us you will be returned
29:58  And those who believe and do good work, We will settle them in mansions in Paradise, with rivers flowing beneath. Eternally they abide therein. Excellent is the reward for the workers
29:59  They are the ones who were patient, and put their trust in their Lord
29:60  Many a creature does not carry its provision; God provides for it, as well as for you. He is the Hearer, the Knowledgeable
29:61  And if you ask them: "Who created the heavens and the Earth, and put the sun and the moon in motion" They will Say: "God." Why then did they deviat
29:62  God expands the provision for whomever He chooses from among His servants, and withholds it. God is fully aware of all things
29:63  And if you ask them: "Who sends down water from the sky, thus reviving the land after its death" They will Say: "God," Say: "Praise be to God." But most of them do not understand
29:64  This worldly life is no more than fun and distraction, while the abode of the Hereafter is the reality, if they only knew
29:65  When they ride on a ship, they call on God, devoting the system to Him. But as soon as He saves them to the shore, they set up partners
29:66  Let them reject what We have given them, and let them enjoy; for they will come to know
29:67  Have they not seen that We have established a safe territory, while all around them the people are in constant danger Would they still believe in falsehood, and reject God's blessing
29:68  Who is more evil than one who fabricates lies and attributes them to God, or denies the truth when it comes to him Is there not a place in Hell for the rejecter
29:69  As for those who strive in Our cause, We will guide them to Our paths. For God is with the pious
