English - Chapter 45 - Al-Jathiyah

Haa Miim

The sending down of the book is from God, the Mighty, the Wise

In the skies and the earth there are certainly signs for the believers

and in your own creation (too), and (in) that which He has spread from among the living beings there are signs for a people who are certain

and (in) the alternation of the night and the day and (in) the provision which God sends down from the sky then gives life through it to the earth after its death, and (in) the changing of winds, there are signs for a people who understand

These are the communications of God which We recite to you with truth, then in which statement after (that of) God and His signs, will they believe

Sorrowful is the state of every sinful liar

who hears the signs of God when they are recited to him, then persists proudly as if he did not hear them, so convey to him the news of a painful punishment

And when he comes to know of any of Our signs, he takes it as mockery, for them there will be a disgraceful punishment

Beyond them is hell, and nothing of that which they earned will be of any use to them, nor that which they had taken as guardians besides God (will be of any use), and for them there is a great punishment

This is the guidance. And those who do not believe in the signs of their Lord, for them there is a painful punishment of weakening uneasiness

It is God Who subjected to your service the sea, that the ships may sail in it by His command and that you may seek of His grace and that you may be grateful

and subjected to your service that which is in the skies and that which is in the earth, all from Him . Certainly there are signs in that for a people who reflect

Say to those who believe (that) they should forgive those who do not expect the days of God, that He may reward people according to that which they used to earn

One who does righteous work, then it is for (the benefit of) his own soul and one who does evil then (the harm of it) is on him alone, then towards your Lord will you be returned

And We gave the book to the children of Israel and (also) wisdom and prophet hood, and We provided them with the good things and We made them excel (others in) the worlds

and We gave them clear explanations of the (religious) affair, and they did not disagree except after the knowledge which had come to them, (because of) envy among themselves. Your Lord will certainly judge between them on the day of resurrection, concerning that about which they used to disagree

Then We made you to follow a procedure in the (religious) affair, so follow it and do not follow the desires of those who have no knowledge

they will certainly not make you independent of any from God. And those who are unjust are friends of each other, while God is the Guardian of those who guard (against evil)

These are (items of) insight for mankind and mercy guidance and for a people who are certain

Or do those who keep themselves busy in evil works, think that We will make them like those who believe and do righteous works, (so that) their life and their death (become) equal? That which they judge is evil

Then have you seen him who takes his desire for his god while God has left him to stray on (the basis of his) knowledge, and has set a seal on his hearing and his heart and has placed a covering on his sight? So who can guide him after God? Will you not then be mindful

And they say, “There is nothing but our life of this world, we die and we live and nothing destroys us but time,” and they have no knowledge of that, they do nothing but guess

And when Our clear signs are recited to them, their argument is nothing but that they say, “Bring (back) our fathers, if you are the truthful ones.”

Say, “God gives you life then He causes you to die, then He will gather you towards the day of resurrection, about which there is no doubt, but the majority of human beings does not know.”

And God’s is the kingdom of the skies and the earth. And the day the hour of doom will be established, on that day, those who followed falsehood will be at a loss

And you will see every community kneeling, every community will be called towards its record, this day you are rewarded for that which you used to do

This is Our record which speaks about you with truth. We certainly got recorded that which you used to do

Then as for those who believed and did righteous works, their Lord will make them enter into His mercy, that is a dear achievement

And as for those who did not believe, (it will be said), “Then were not Our signs recited to you? But you considered yourselves great and you were a criminal people.”

And when it was said, “The promise of God is certainly true and the hour of doom, there is no doubt about it, ”you said, “We do not know what the hour of doom is, we think that it is nothing but a guess and we are not of those who are certain (about it).”

And the evil which they did will be made manifest to them and that which they used to mock at, will engulf them

And it will be said, “This day We will forget you as you forgot the meeting of this day of yours, and your settling place is the fire, and there are no helpers for you

That is because you took the signs of God for mockery and the life of the world deceived you, so this day they will not be brought out from it, nor will they be able to seek goodwill.”

So praise is due only for God, Lord of the skies and Lord of the earth, Lord of the worlds

And to Him belongs greatness in the skies and the earth and He is the Mighty, the Wise
