[001.001] In the Name of Allâh of Allâh,, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. [001.002] All the praises and thanks be to Allâh, the Lord (Ar-Rabb) of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinns and all that exists). [001.003] The Most Beneficent (Ar-Rahman), the Most Merciful (Ar-Raheem). [001.004] The Only Owner (Al-Malik) (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) [001.005] You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything). [001.006] Guide us to the Straight Way [001.007] The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians).
[002.255] Allâh! Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), AlHayyul-Qayyum (the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists). Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And they will never encompass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursî extends Kursî extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. (This ( This Verse 2:255 is called Ayat-ul-Kursî) Ayat-ul- Kursî) [101:001] Al-Qâri'ah (the striking Hour, i.e. the Day of Resurrection). [101:002] What is the striking (Hour)? [101:003] And what will make you know what the striking (Hour) is? [101:004] It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about. [101:005] And the mountains will be like carded wool. [101:006] Then as for him whose Balance (of good deeds) will be heavy, [101:007] He will live a pleasant life (in Paradise). [101:008] But as for him whose Balance (of good deeds) will be light, [101:009] He will have his home in Hâwiyah (pit, i.e. Hell). [101:010] And what will make you know what it is? [101:011] (It is) a fiercely blazing Fire! [105:001] Have you (O Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam]) not seen how your Lord dealt with the Owners of the Elephant? [The Elephant Army which came from Yemen under the command of Abrahah Al-Ashram intending to destroy the Ka'bah at Makkah]. [105:002] Did He not make their plot go astray? [105:003] And He sent against them birds, in flocks, [105:004] Striking them with stones of Sijjîl (baked clay). [105:005] And He made them like (an empty field of) stalks (of which the corn) has been eaten up (by cattle). [078:001] What are they asking one another about?
[078:002] About the great news (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism, the Qur'ân which Prophet Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam] brought and the Day of Resurrection), [078:003] About which they are in disagreement. [078:004] Nay, they will come to know! [078:005] Nay, again, they will come to know! [078:006] Have We not made the earth as a bed, [078:007] And the mountains as pegs? [078:008] And We have created you in pairs (male and female, tall and short, good and bad). [078:009] And We have made your sleep as a thing for rest. [078:010] And We have made the night as a covering (through its darkness), [078:011] And We have made the day for livelihood. [078:012] And We have built above you seven strong (heavens), [078:013] And We have made (therein) a shining lamp (sun). [078:014] And We have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water. [078:015] That We may produce therewith corn and vegetation, [078:016] And gardens of thick growth. [078:017] Verily, the Day of Decision is a fixed time, [078:018] The Day when the Trumpet will be blown, and you shall come forth in crowds (groups after groups). (Tafsir At-Tabari) [078:019] And the heaven shall be opened, and it will become as gates, [078:020] And the mountains shall be moved away from their places and they will be as if they were a mirage. [078:021] Truly, Hell is a place of ambush – [078:022] A dwelling place for the Tâghûn (those who transgress the boundary limits set by Allâh, like polytheists, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh, hypocrites, sinners, criminals),
[078:023] They will abide therein for ages. [078:024] Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink. [078:025] Except boiling water, and dirty wound discharges – [078:026] An exact recompense (according to their evil crimes). [078:027] For verily, they used not to look for a reckoning. [078:028] But they denied Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, and that which Our Prophet brought) completely. [078:029] And all things We have recorded in a Book. [078:030] So taste you (the results of your evil actions). No increase shall We give you, except in torment. [078:031] Verily, for the Muttaqûn, there will be a success (Paradise); [078:032] Gardens and vineyards, [078:033] And young full-breasted (mature) maidens of equal age, [078:034] And a full cup (of wine). [078:035] No Laghw (dirty, false, evil talk) shall they hear therein, nor lying; [078:036] A reward from your Lord, an ample calculated gift (according to the best of their good deeds), [078:037] (From) the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and whatsoever is in between them, – the Most Gracious, with Whom they cannot dare to speak (on the Day of Resurrection except by His Leave). [078:038] The Day that Ar-Rûh [Jibrâîl (Gabriel) or another angel] and the angels will stand forth in rows, they will not speak except him whom the Most Gracious (Allâh) allows, and he will speak what is right. [078:039] That is (without doubt) the True Day. So, whosoever wills, let him seek a place with (or a way to) his Lord (by obeying Him in this worldly life)! [078:040] Verily, We have warned you of near torment, – the Day when man will see that (the deeds) which his hands have sent forth, and the disbeliever will say: "I wish I would have been dust!"
