English - Chapter 96 - Al-Alaq

(Muhammad), read in the name of your Lord who created (all things)

He created man from a clot of blood

Recite! Your Lord is the most Honorable One

who, by the pen, taught the human being

He taught the human being what he did not know

Despite this, the human being still tends to rebel

because he thinks that he is independent

However, (all things) will return to your Lord

Have you seen the one who prohibits

a servant of Ours from prayer

What will happen if the praying person is rightly guided

or if he commands others to maintain piety

What will happen if the prohibiting rejects the Truth and turns away from it

Does he not realize that God sees him

Let him know that if he does not desist, We shall certainly drag him by his forelocks

his lying sinful forelock

Let him call on his associates for help

and We too will call the stern and angry keepers of hell

(Muhammad), never yield to him! Prostrate yourself and try to come closer to God
