| | Ahmed Raza Khan (Barelvi) rendition of Surah Those Who Set The Ranks, Drawn up in Ranks, The Rangers(as-Saffat) --- |
---|
37:1 | | By those Who range them selves in ranks properly. |
37:2 | | Then by those who drive by chiding. |
37:3 | | Then by those groups that recites Quran. |
37:4 | | Undoubtedly, your God is necessarily One. |
37:5 | | The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is in between them and the Lord of the casts. |
37:6 | | And undoubtedly, We adorned the lower heaven with the adornment of the stars. |
37:7 | | And a safeguard from every contumacious devil (Satan). |
37:8 | | They can not give ear towards heavenly world and they are pelted from every side. |
37:9 | | To drive them away and for them is the perpetual torment. |
37:10 | | But he who carries away by swooping once or twice then are at once followed by a bright burning flame. |
37:11 | | Therefore ask them, is their creation stronger or Our other creations heavens and angels etc? Undoubtedly We have made them of sticking clay. |
37:12 | | But you do wonder and they ridicule it. |
37:13 | | And when they are made to understand, they understand not. |
37:14 | | And when they see any sign, they ridicule it. |
37:15 | | And they say, 'this is not but an open magic'. |
37:16 | | What! when we become dust and bones after death, shall we necessarily be raised? |
37:17 | | And our former fore-fathers too? |
37:18 | | Say you, 'yes, and you shall be disgraced ones'. |
37:19 | | Then it will be only a single horrible shout, henceforth they will begin to see. |
37:20 | | And they will say, 'woe, alas to us it will be said to them' 'This is the Day of Requital.' |
37:21 | | This is the Day of judgement, which you used to belie. |
37:22 | | Drive and bring together the oppressors and their companions, and what they used to worship. |
37:23 | | Beside Allah, and drive them to the path of the Fire. |
37:24 | | And stop them, they are to be questioned. |
37:25 | | What happened to you, why you do not help each other? |
37:26 | | Nay, today they have surrendered themselves. |
37:27 | | And of them, one faced the other mutually questioning. |
37:28 | | They said, 'you used to approach us for misleading from right side. |
37:29 | | They will reply, 'you yourselves were not believing. |
37:30 | | And We had no control over you, but rather you were a people contumacious. |
37:31 | | Therefore, the sentence of our Lord has been proved against us that we are necessarily to taste. |
37:32 | | And we misled you for we ourselves had gone astray. |
37:33 | | Therefore that day they are all sharers in the torment. |
37:34 | | Thus, We do with the culprits. |
37:35 | | Undoubtedly, when it was said to them, 'None is to be worshipped beside Allah', they then swelled with pride. |
37:36 | | And they used to say, shall we indeed leave our gods, because of the saying of a mad poet? |
37:37 | | No indeed, rather he has brought the truth and he has confirmed the Messengers. |
37:38 | | Undoubtedly, you are to taste a painful agony. |
37:39 | | And you shall not be recompensed but of your own doings. |
37:40 | | But those who are the chosen bond men of Allah. |
37:41 | | For them is that provision which is in Our knowledge. |
37:42 | | Fruits, and they shall be honored. |
37:43 | | In the Gardens of comfort. |
37:44 | | They will be on thrones face to face. |
37:45 | | There will be a round of a flowing drink cup before their eyes. |
37:46 | | White coloured, delicious to those who drink. |
37:47 | | Wherein neither there is intoxication and nor their heads will become giddy wherewith. |
37:48 | | And they have those, who will not look towards any one else other than their husbands, having large eyes. |
37:49 | | As they are eggs preserved. |
37:50 | | Then of them one faced the other questioning. |
37:51 | | A speaker from among them said, 'I had a mate of mine.' |
37:52 | | 'Who used to say, do you take it to be true'? |
37:53 | | What! when we are rotten and will become dust and bones, shall we then be requited? |
37:54 | | He will say, 'will you peep and see?' |
37:55 | | Then he peeped and saw him in the midst of Flaming fire. |
37:56 | | He said, By God, it was near that, you would cause me to perish.' |
37:57 | | And had it not been for the favour of my Lord, I would surely have been seized and presented'. |
37:58 | | Is it not then we are to die? |
37:59 | | But our first death and that we are not to be punished. |
37:60 | | No doubt, this is the supreme triumph. |
37:61 | | Therefore, let the workers work the like of this. |
37:62 | | Is this entertainment better or the tree of Zaqqum? (Bearing bitter, un-tasty and sour fruits). |
37:63 | | Undoubtedly, We have made it a test for the unjust. |
37:64 | | Verily, it is a tree, which grows in the bottom of Hell. |
37:65 | | Its spikes are like the heads of monsters. |
37:66 | | And verily they shall eat of it, And fill their bellies with it. |
37:67 | | Then undoubtedly, for them there is in addition to it a mixture of boiling water. |
37:68 | | Then their return is necessary towards a Flaming Fire. |
37:69 | | Undoubtedly, they found their fathers erring. |
37:70 | | So they are rushing in their footsteps. |
37:71 | | And undoubtedly, most of the ancient went astray before them. |
37:72 | | And undoubtedly, We sent warners in them. |
37:73 | | Then look as to how was the end of those who were warned. |
37:74 | | Save the chosen devotees of Allah. |
37:75 | | And undoubtedly, Nuh called to Us, and what excellent respondent are, We. |
37:76 | | And We delivered him and his family from the great distress. |
37:77 | | And We made his offspring the only survivors. |
37:78 | | And We left for him a good name among later generations. |
37:79 | | Peace be upon Nuh among the people of the world. |
37:80 | | Undoubtedly, thus We recompense the righteous. |
37:81 | | Undoubtedly, he is among Our most dignified fully believing devotees. |
37:82 | | Then We drowned the others. |
37:83 | | And undoubtedly, Ibrahim belongs to his same group. |
37:84 | | When he came to his Lord with a pure heart. |
37:85 | | When he said to his father and his people, 'what do you worship'? |
37:86 | | Do you desire false gods beside Allah? |
37:87 | | What do you think about the Lord of the worlds? |
37:88 | | Then he cast a glance at the stars. |
37:89 | | Then he said, 'I am about to be sick'. |
37:90 | | Then they turned back from him. |
37:91 | | Then he walked towards their gods secretly and said, 'do you not eat'? |
37:92 | | What happened to you that you speak not? |
37:93 | | Then avoiding sight of the people, he began to strike them with his right hand. |
37:94 | | Then the infidels rushed to wards him. |
37:95 | | He said, 'do you worship What your hand carved out.' |
37:96 | | And Allah has created you and what you make. |
37:97 | | They said, 'build for him a building, then cast him in the flaming fire. |
37:98 | | Then they intended to design a plan against him, but We brought them low. |
37:99 | | And he said, 'I am to go to my Lord' now He shall guide me. |
37:100 | | 'My Lord, bestow me a righteous son.' |
37:101 | | Then We gave him a glad tiding of a prudent son. |
37:102 | | Then when he became able to work with him, he said, 'O my son, I have dreamt that I am slaughtering you, now look you, what is your opinion'. He said, 'O my father, do as you are commanded, Allah willing, you will find me patient.' |
37:103 | | Then when they both submitted to My command and the father laid down his son on forehead. |
37:104 | | We called to him, O Ibrahim, |
37:105 | | Undoubtedly, you have fulfilled the vision; thus, We recompense the righteous. |
37:106 | | No doubt, it was a bright test. |
37:107 | | And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice. |
37:108 | | And We left a good name for him in later generations. |
37:109 | | Peace be upon Ibrahim. |
37:110 | | And thus We recompense the righteous. |
37:111 | | Undoubtedly, He is among Our most dignified fully believing devotees. |
37:112 | | And We gave him the glad tidings of Ishaque, a Prophet the Communicator of unseen, one of the deserving men of our proximity. |
37:113 | | And We blessed him and Ishaque. And among their progeny some are good doers, and are some who clearly wrong themselves. |
37:114 | | And undoubtedly, We bestowed favours on Musa and Haroon. |
37:115 | | And We delivered them and their people from the great distress. |
37:116 | | And We helped them, so they became dominant. |
37:117 | | And We bestowed to both a luminous Book. |
37:118 | | And We showed them straight path. |
37:119 | | And left their good names in later generations. |

37:122 | | Undoubtedly, they are among Our most dignified Fully believing devotees. |
37:123 | | And undoubtedly, Elyas is among Messengers. |
37:124 | | When he said to his people 'do you not fear'? |
37:125 | | Do you worship Baal and leave the Best Creator? |
37:126 | | Allah, Who is your Lord and the Lord of your forefather`? |
37:127 | | Then-he belied him, so necessity, they will come accosted. |
37:128 | | But the chosen devotees of Allah. |
37:129 | | And We left his good name in later generation. |
37:130 | | Peace be upon Elyas. |
37:131 | | Undoubtedly, thus We recompense the righteous. |
37:132 | | Verily, he is among Our most dignified fully believing devotees. |
37:133 | | And verily Lut is among Our Messengers. |
37:134 | | When We delivered him and his all family members. |
37:135 | | But an old woman who was among those who remained behind. |
37:136 | | Then We destroyed the others. |
37:137 | | And undoubtedly, you pass by them in the morning |
37:138 | | And at night. Do you then have no wisdom? |
37:139 | | And verily, Yunus is among Messengers. |
37:140 | | When he went away towards a laden boat. |
37:141 | | And cast lots and was of the pushed ones. |
37:142 | | Then the fish swallowed him and he was blaming himself. |
37:143 | | And had he not been of those who glorify Allah. |
37:144 | | He would have necessarily remained in its belly until the day when the people shall be raised. |
37:145 | | Then We cast him on a bare place and he was sick. |
37:146 | | And We caused to grow over him a tree of gourd. |
37:147 | | And We sent him towards a hundred thousand rather more. |
37:148 | | And they believed, then We allowed them to enjoy for a time. |
37:149 | | Now ask them 'are the daughters for your Lord and for them sons?' |
