English - Chapter 67 - Al-Mulk

Blessed be He in Whose hands is the Kingdom of the universe and has power over all things

The One Who created death and life, so that He may put you to test, to find out which of you is best in deeds: He is the All-Mighty, the All-Forgiving

The One Who created the seven heavens, one above another, you will not see any flaw in the creation of the Compassionate. Look once again, do you see any flaw

Then look still another time, yet again your sight will come back bewildered, and feel exhausted

We have decorated the heaven of this world with lamps and We made them as missiles for pelting the Satans and thus prepared for them the scourge of flames

As for those who disbelieve their Lord, there will be the punishment of hell, which is an evil abode

When they will be plunged into its fire, they shall hear its roaring and boiling

as though bursting with rage. Every time a group is plunged therein, its guards will ask: "Did not a Warner come to you

They will answer: "Yes indeed, a Warner did come to us, but we rejected him and said, Allah has revealed nothing - you are merely in gross error

They will further say: "Had we only listened or used our intelligence, we would have not been among the inmates of the blazing fire

Thus shall they confess their sin; so away from the mercy of Allah will be the dwellers of hell

As for those who fear their Lord, although they have not seen Him, shall have forgiveness and a great reward

Would He, Who has created them, not know? He is the Knower of finest mysteries, and aware of everything

It is He Who has made the earth subservient to you, to walk through its tracts and eat of His provided sustenance. To Him is the return at resurrection

Do you feel secure that He Who is in heaven, will not cause the earth to cave in beneath you and start shaking suddenly

Or do you feel secure that He Who is in heaven will not send against you a violent tornado, then you shall know how was My warning

Those who have gone before them likewise disbelieved, then see how terrible was the way I rejected them

Do they not observe the birds above them spreading their wings and folding them? None could hold them except the Compassionate (Allah), surely it is He Who watches over all things

What force is there that can help you besides the Compassionate? In fact, the unbelievers are suffering from delusion

Or who is there that can provide you if He withholds His provision? Yet, they persist in rebellion and aversion from the truth

Just think, who is rightly guided: he who walks with his face bent down, or he who walks properly on an even path

Say: "It is He Who has brought you into being, gave you the faculties of hearing, seeing, feeling and understanding: yet you are seldom thankful

Say: "It is He Who has multiplied you in the earth, and before Him you shall all be assembled

They ask: "When will this promise be fulfilled, if what you say is true

Tell them: "Allah Alone has the knowledge of that; my mission is only to warn you plainly

But, when they shall see it close at hand, the faces of the disbelievers will turn black with gloom, and it will be said to them: "This is which you were calling for

Further say: "Have you ever considered that even if Allah destroys me as well as those with me or bestows His mercy on us; who will save the disbelievers from a painful punishment

Say: "He is the Compassionate: in Him we have believed, and in Him we have put our trust. Soon you will find out, which one of us is in the manifest error

Say: "Have you ever considered that if all the water you have, sink down in the ground, who is it, that will bring you the clear-flowing water
