Al-Hijr

English Translation:

Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur'an

English Translation:

Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims

English Translation:

Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know

English Translation:

And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree

English Translation:

No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter

English Translation:

And they say, "O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad

English Translation:

Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful

English Translation:

We do not send down the angels except with truth; and the disbelievers would not then be reprieved

English Translation:

Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian

English Translation:

And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muhammad], among the sects of the former peoples

English Translation:

And no messenger would come to them except that they ridiculed him

English Translation:

Thus do We insert denial into the hearts of the criminals

English Translation:

They will not believe in it, while there has already occurred the precedent of the former peoples

English Translation:

And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend

English Translation:

They would say, "Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic

English Translation:

And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers

English Translation:

And We have protected it from every devil expelled [from the mercy of Allah]

English Translation:

Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame

English Translation:

And the earth - We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well-balanced thing

English Translation:

And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers

English Translation:

And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure

English Translation:

And We have sent the fertilizing winds and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers

English Translation:

And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor

English Translation:

And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come]

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord will gather them; indeed, He is Wise and Knowing

English Translation:

And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud

English Translation:

And the jinn We created before from scorching fire

English Translation:

And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud

English Translation:

And when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration

English Translation:

So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely

English Translation:

Except Iblees, he refused to be with those who prostrated

English Translation:

[Allah] said, O Iblees, what is [the matter] with you that you are not with those who prostrate

English Translation:

He said, "Never would I prostrate to a human whom You created out of clay from an altered black mud

English Translation:

[Allah] said, "Then get out of it, for indeed, you are expelled

English Translation:

And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Recompense

English Translation:

He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected

English Translation:

[Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved

English Translation:

Until the Day of the time well-known

English Translation:

[Iblees] said, "My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all

English Translation:

Except, among them, Your chosen servants

English Translation:

[Allah] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight

English Translation:

Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators

English Translation:

And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all

English Translation:

It has seven gates; for every gate is of them a portion designated

English Translation:

Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs

English Translation:

[Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]

English Translation:

And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other

English Translation:

No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed

English Translation:

[O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful

English Translation:

And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment

English Translation:

And inform them about the guests of Abraham

English Translation:

When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful of you

English Translation:

[The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy

English Translation:

He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform

English Translation:

They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing

English Translation:

He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray

English Translation:

[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers

English Translation:

They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals

English Translation:

Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all

English Translation:

Except his wife." Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind

English Translation:

And when the messengers came to the family of Lot

English Translation:

He said, "Indeed, you are people unknown

English Translation:

They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing

English Translation:

And we have come to you with truth, and indeed, we are truthful

English Translation:

So set out with your family during a portion of the night and follow behind them and let not anyone among you look back and continue on to where you are commanded

English Translation:

And We conveyed to him [the decree] of that matter: that those [sinners] would be eliminated by early morning

English Translation:

And the people of the city came rejoicing

English Translation:

[Lot] said, "Indeed, these are my guests, so do not shame me

English Translation:

And fear Allah and do not disgrace me

English Translation:

They said, "Have we not forbidden you from [protecting] people

English Translation:

[Lot] said, "These are my daughters - if you would be doers [of lawful marriage]

English Translation:

By your life, [O Muhammad], indeed they were, in their intoxication, wandering blindly

English Translation:

So the shriek seized them at sunrise

English Translation:

And We made the highest part [of the city] its lowest and rained upon them stones of hard clay

English Translation:

Indeed in that are signs for those who discern

English Translation:

And indeed, those cities are [situated] on an established road

English Translation:

Indeed in that is a sign for the believers

English Translation:

And the companions of the thicket were [also] wrongdoers

English Translation:

So We took retribution from them, and indeed, both [cities] are on a clear highway

English Translation:

And certainly did the companions of Thamud deny the messengers

English Translation:

And We gave them Our signs, but from them they were turning away

English Translation:

And they used to carve from the mountains, houses, feeling secure

English Translation:

But the shriek seized them at early morning

English Translation:

So nothing availed them [from] what they used to earn

English Translation:

And We have not created the heavens and earth and that between them except in truth. And indeed, the Hour is coming; so forgive with gracious forgiveness

English Translation:

Indeed, your Lord - He is the Knowing Creator

English Translation:

And We have certainly given you, [O Muhammad], seven of the often repeated [verses] and the great Qur'an

English Translation:

Do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [certain] categories of the disbelievers, and do not grieve over them. And lower your wing to the believers

English Translation:

And say, "Indeed, I am the clear warner

English Translation:

Just as We had revealed [scriptures] to the separators

English Translation:

Who have made the Qur'an into portions

English Translation:

So by your Lord, We will surely question them all

English Translation:

About what they used to do

English Translation:

Then declare what you are commanded and turn away from the polytheists

English Translation:

Indeed, We are sufficient for you against the mockers

English Translation:

Who make [equal] with Allah another deity. But they are going to know

English Translation:

And We already know that your breast is constrained by what they say

English Translation:

So exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord and be of those who prostrate [to Him]

English Translation:

And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (death)
