26:2
Those are the signs of the clear Book;
26:3
Perhaps you would kill yourself that they will not be believers.
26:4
If We will We send down upon them from the heaven a sign, so their necks remain bowed before it.
26:5
And there comes not to them any new reminder from the Merciful that they do not turn away from.
26:6
So verily, they have denied. Then there shall come to them news of that at which they mocked.
26:7
Have they not looked to the earth, how many we caused to grow therein of every noble kind?
26:8
Indeed, in that surely is a sign; but most of them are not believers.
26:9
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:10
And when your Lord called Moses, 'Go to the unjust people,
26:11
To the people of Pharaoh, will they not fear?'
26:12
He said, 'My Lord! Indeed, I fear that they will call me liar;
26:13
And my breast is straitened, and my tongue is not fluent; so send for Aaron,
26:14
And they have a crime against me, so I fear that they may kill me.'
26:15
He said, 'Not so, but go, both of you, with Our signs, Indeed, We are with you listening.
26:16
So go both of you to Pharaoh and say, "Indeed, we bear a message of the Lord of the worlds,
26:17
Send with us the children of Israel."'
26:18
He said, 'Did we not bring you up among us as a child? And you tarried among us for years of your life;
26:19
And you did your deed which you did, and you are of the ungrateful.'
26:20
He said, 'I did it, behold, and I was of those who err.
26:21
So I fled from you when I feared you, but my Lord granted me judgment, and made me one of the messengers;
26:22
And that is a favour which you reproach me with, that you have enslaved the children of Israel.'
26:23
Pharaoh said, 'And what is the Lord of the worlds?'
26:24
He said, 'The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between both of them, if you were sure.'
26:25
He said to those around him, 'Do you not hear?'
26:26
He said, 'Your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers.'
26:27
He said, 'Indeed, your messenger who is sent to you is surely mad.'
26:28
He said, 'Lord of the east and the west, and what is between both of them, if you are intelligent.'
26:29
He said, 'If you take a god besides me I will surely make you one of the imprisoned.'
26:30
He said, 'If I come to you with something clear?'
26:31
He said, 'Then bring it, if you are of the truthful.'
26:32
So he threw down his rod, and behold, it was a clear serpent.
26:33
And he drew out his hand, and behold, it was white to the beholders.
26:34
He said to the chiefs around him, 'Indeed, this is surely a knowing magician
26:35
He desires to drive you out from your land by his magic, so what do you advise?'
26:36
They said, 'Put him off and his brother, and send into the cities gatherers.
26:37
They will bring to you every knowing magician.'
26:38
So the magicians were assembled at an appointed place on a known day,
26:39
And it was said to the people, 'Are you assembled?'
26:40
Perhaps we may follow the magicians if they gain the upperhand.
26:41
So when the magicians came they said to Pharaoh, 'Shall we, indeed, have a reward if we gain the upper hand?'
26:42
He said, 'Yes; and, indeed, you shall then be of those who are brought near.'
26:43
Moses said to them, 'Throw down what you have to throw down.'
26:44
So they threw down their ropes and their rods and said, 'By Pharaoh's might, indeed, surely it is we who shall gain the upper hand.'
26:45
Then Moses threw down his rod, and behold, it swallowed what they falsified.
26:46
Then the magicians were thrown down prostrating.
26:47
They said, 'We believe in the Lord of the worlds,
26:48
The Lord of Moses and Aaron.'
26:49
He said, 'You believe in him before I give you permission. Indeed, he is your chief who has taught you magic, So surely soon you shall know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet from opposite sides, and I will surely crucify you all together.'
26:50
They said, 'No harm; indeed, we to our Lord return.
26:51
Indeed, we hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, that we are the first of the believers.'
26:52
And We inspired Moses, 'Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be followed.'
26:53
Then Pharaoh sent into the cities gatherers,
26:54
'Indeed these are surely a small company,
26:55
And indeed, they are surely enraging us;
26:56
And indeed, we are surely altogether cautious.'
26:57
So We expelled them from gardens and springs,
26:58
And treasures and a noble station;
26:59
Thus. And We made the children of Israel to inherit them.
26:60
So they followed them at sunrise.
26:61
Then when the two hosts saw each other, the companions of Moses said, 'Indeed, we are surely overtaken.'
26:62
He said, 'Not so; indeed, with me is my Lord, soon He will guide me.'
26:63
Then We inspired Moses, 'Strike with your rod the sea.' And it parted, and each part was like the great mountain.
26:64
And We brought near there, the others.
26:65
And we saved Moses and those with him all together;
26:66
Then We drowned the others.
26:67
Indeed, in that surely is a sign but most of them are not believers.
26:68
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:69
And recite to them the story of Abraham;
26:70
When he said to his father and his people, 'What do you serve?'
26:71
They said, 'We serve idols, so we will remain devoted to them.'
26:72
He said, 'Can they hear you when you call,
26:73
Or profit you or harm?'
26:74
They said, 'No; but we found our fathers doing thus.'
26:75
He said, 'Have you considered what you have been serving,
26:76
You and your fathers before you?
26:77
Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds,
26:78
The one who created me and He guides me.
26:79
And the one who, He gives me food and gives me drink.
26:80
And when I am sick then He heals me;
26:81
And the one who will cause me to die, then He will give me life;
26:82
And the one who I hope will forgive me my sins on the Day of Judgment.
26:83
My Lord! Grant me wisdom and join me with the righteous;
26:84
And grant me a tongue of truth among later generations;
26:85
And make me among the inheritors of the Garden of pleasure;
26:86
And forgive my father, indeed, he was of those who err;
26:87
And do not disgrace me on the day they are raised up,
26:88
The day wealth shall not profit, nor sons,
26:89
Except he who comes to God with a sound heart.'
26:90
And the Garden shall be brought near to the pious;
26:91
And the Hellfire is made manifest to those who err,
26:92
And it shall be said to them, 'Where is what you used to worship
26:93
Besides God? Can they help you or help themselves?'
26:94
Then they shall fall headlong into it, they and the erring,
26:95
And the hosts of Iblis all together.
26:96
They shall say, while they quarrel therein,
26:97
'By God, we were surely in clear error,
26:98
When we made you equal to the Lord of the worlds.
26:99
It was no one but the sinners that led us astray;
26:100
So now we have no intercessors,
26:102
And if that there is a return for us, then we would be of the believers.'
26:103
Indeed, in that surely is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
26:104
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:105
The people of Noah said the messengers were liars,
26:106
When their brother Noah said to them, 'Will you not fear?
26:107
Indeed, I am a faithful messenger to you;
26:108
Then fear God and obey me.
26:109
I do not ask you for it any payment; my payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
26:110
So fear God and obey me.'
26:111
They said, 'Shall we believe in you, when the reprobates follow you?'
26:112
He said, 'And what do I know of what they used to do?
26:113
Indeed, their account is only upon my Lord, if you perceive.
26:114
And I am not one to drive away the believers,
26:115
I am not except a clear warner.
26:116
They said, 'Verily, if you do not desist, O Noah! You shall surely be of those who are stoned.'
26:117
He said, 'My Lord! Indeed my people call me liar;
26:118
So judge between me and between them, a judging, and save me and those of the believers who are with me.'
26:119
So we saved him and those with him in the laden ship,
26:120
Then we drowned thereafter the remaining;
26:121
Indeed, in that surely is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
26:122
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:123
'Ad called the messengers liars;
26:124
When their brother Hud said to them, 'Will you not fear?
26:125
Indeed, I am to you a faithful messenger;
26:126
So fear God and obey me.
26:127
I do not ask you for it any payment; my payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
26:128
Do you build on every height a landmark in sport,
26:129
And take to works that perhaps you may be immortal?
26:130
And when you assault you assault like tyrants;
26:131
So fear God and obey me.
26:132
And fear the one who has aided you with what you know,
26:133
He has aided you with cattle and children,
26:134
And gardens and springs.
26:135
Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a great day.'
26:136
They said, 'Equal on us whether you admonish or are not of those who admonish;
26:137
This is not except the custom of the former people,
26:138
And we shall not be punished.
26:139
So they called him liar, then We destroyed them. Indeed, in that surely is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
26:140
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:141
Thamud called the messengers liars;
26:142
When their brother Salih said to them, 'Will you not fear?
26:143
Indeed, I am to you a faithful messenger;
26:144
So fear God and obey me.
26:145
I do not ask you for it any payment; my payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
26:146
Shall you be left secure in what is here,
26:148
And corn-fields and palms with slender spathes?
26:149
And you carve out of the mountains houses skilfully.
26:150
So fear God and obey me;
26:151
And do not obey the command of the extravagant,
26:152
Who do evil in the earth and do not act aright.'
26:153
They said, 'You are only of those who are bewitched;
26:154
You are not except a mortal like us; so bring us a sign, if you are of the truthful.'
26:155
He said, 'This is a she-camel; to her a draught and to you a draught, on a known day,
26:156
And do not touch her with harm, or there will seize you the punishment of a great day.'
26:157
Then they hamstrung her, then they became repentant;
26:158
So the punishment seized them. Indeed, in that surely is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
26:159
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:160
The people of Lot called the messengers liars;
26:161
When their brother Lot said to them, 'Will you not fear?
26:162
Indeed, I am to you a faithful messenger;
26:163
Then fear God and obey me.
26:164
I do not ask you for it any payment; my payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
26:165
Do you approach the males among the worlds
26:166
And you leave what your Lord has created for you of your wives? Nay, you are a people transgressing.'
26:167
They said, 'Surely, if you do not desist, O Lot! Surely, you will definitely be of those who are driven out.'
26:168
He said, 'Indeed, I am of those who hate your deed;
26:169
My Lord! Save me and my people from what they do.'
26:170
So We saved him and his people all together,
26:171
Except an old woman among those who lingered.
26:172
Then We destroyed the others;
26:173
And We rained down upon them a rain; and evil was the rain of those who were warned.
26:174
Indeed, in that surely is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
26:175
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:176
The fellows of the Grove called the messengers liars;
26:177
When Shuayb said to them, 'Will you not fear?
26:178
Indeed, I am to you a faithful messenger,
26:179
So fear God and obey me.
26:180
I do not ask you for it any payment; my payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
26:181
Give full measure, and do not be of those who cause loss;
26:182
And weigh with a fair balance,
26:183
And do not cheat men of their goods; and do not evil in the earth, working corruption;
26:184
And fear the one who created you and the former nations.'
26:185
They said, 'You are only of those that are bewitched;
26:186
And you are not except a mortal like us; and indeed we think you are surely of the liars;
26:187
So make a portion of the heaven to fall down upon us, if you are of the truthful.'
26:188
He said, 'My Lord knows best of what you do.'
26:189
But they called him liar, so the punishment of the day of shadow seized them; indeed, it was the punishment of a great day.
26:190
Indeed, in that surely is a sign but most of them are not believers.
26:191
And indeed, your Lord, surely, He is the Mighty, the Compassionate.
26:192
And indeed, it surely is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds;
26:193
The faithful spirit has brought it down
26:194
Upon your heart, that you should be of the warners;
26:195
In clear Arabic language,
26:196
And indeed, it surely is in the scriptures of the former people.
26:197
Is it not a sign to them, that those of the children of Israel who have knowledge recognise it?
26:198
And if We had sent it down to any foreigner,
26:199
And he had read it to them, they would not have believed in it.
26:200
Thus We have caused it to enter into the hearts of the sinners,
26:201
They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment.
26:202
And it shall come to them suddenly while they do not perceive.
26:203
Then they will say, 'Shall we be respited?'
26:204
Do they wish to hasten on the punishment?
26:205
Then have you considered if We let them enjoy themselves for years,
26:206
Then there comes to them what they are threatened,
26:207
That will not avail them which they had to enjoy.
26:208
And We do not destroy any city without its having warners
26:209
As a reminder, and We are not unjust.
26:210
And the devils did not bring it down;
26:211
And it is not appropriate for them; and they are not able.
26:212
Indeed, they are surely banished from the hearing.
26:213
So do not call upon another god with God, or you will be of the punished;
26:214
And warn your kinsfolk, the nearer relatives.
26:215
And lower your wing to those of the believers who follow you;
26:216
Then if they disobey you, say, ' Indeed, I am clear of what you do,'
26:217
And rely on the Mighty, the Compassionate,
26:218
The one who sees you when you stand up,
26:219
And your movement among those who prostrate.
26:220
Indeed He, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
26:221
Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend?
26:222
They descend upon every sinful liar,
26:223
They pass on what is heard; and most of them are liars.
26:224
And the poets, the erring follow them.
26:225
Do you not see that they go heedlessly in every valley?
26:226
And that they say what they do not do?
26:227
Except those who believe, and do good works, and remember God much, and defend themselves after they are wronged; and those who do wrong will soon know what overturning they will be overturned.
