Shakir rendition of Surah The Troops, Throngs, The Companies(az-Zumar)
---
39:1 The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Mighty, the Wise
39:2 Surely We have revealed to you the Book with the truth, therefore serve Allah, being sincere to Him in obedience
39:3 Now, surely, sincere obedience is due to Allah (alone) and (as for) those who take guardians besides Him, (saying), We do not serve them save that they may make us nearer to Allah, surely Allah will judge between them in that in which they differ; surely Allah does not guide him aright who is a liar, ungrateful
39:4 If Allah desire to take a son to Himself, He will surely choose those He pleases from what He has created. Glory be to Him: He is Allah, the One, the Subduer (of all)
39:5 He has created the heavens and the earth with the truth; He makes the night cover the day and makes the day overtake the night, and He has made the sun and the moon subservient; each one runs on to an assigned term; now surely He is the Mighty, the great Forgiver
39:6 He has created you from a single being, then made its mate of the same (kind), and He has made for you eight of the cattle in pairs. He creates you in the wombs of your mothers-- a creation after a creation-- in triple darkness; that is Allah your Lord, His is the kingdom; there is no god but He; whence are you then turned away
39:7 If you are ungrateful, then surely Allah is Self-sufficient above all need of you; and He does not like ungratefulness in His servants; and if you are grateful, He likes it in you; and no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another; then to your Lord is your return, then will He inform you of what you did; surely He is Cognizant of what is in the breasts
39:8 And when distress afflicts a man he calls upon his Lord turning to Him frequently; then when He makes him possess a favor from Him, he forgets that for which he called upon Him before, and sets up rivals to Allah that he may cause (men) to stray off from His path. Say: Enjoy yourself in your ungratefulness a little, surely you are of the inmates of the fire
39:9 What! he who is obedient during hours of the night, prostrating himself and standing, takes care of the hereafter and hopes for the mercy of his Lord! Say: Are those who know and those who do not know alike? Only the men of understanding are mindful
39:10 Say: O my servants who believe! be careful of (your duty to) your Lord; for those who do good in this world is good, and Allah's earth is spacious; only the patient will be paid back their reward in full without measure
39:11 Say: I am commanded that I should serve Allah, being sincere to Him in obedience
39:12 And I am commanded that I shall be the first of those who submit
39:13 Say: I fear, if I disobey my Lord, the chastisement of a grievous day
39:14 Say: Allah (it is Whom) I serve, being sincere to Him in my obedience
39:15 Serve then what you like besides Him. Say: The losers surely are those who shall have lost themselves and their families on the day of resurrection; now surely that is the clear loss
39:16 They shall have coverings of fire above them and coverings beneath them; with that Allah makes His servants to fear, so be careful of (your duty to) Me, O My servants
39:17 And (as for) those who keep off from the worship of the idols and turn to Allah, they shall have good news, therefore give good news to My servants
39:18 Those who listen to the word, then follow the best of it; those are they whom Allah has guided, and those it is who are the men of understanding
39:19 What! as for him then against whom the sentence of chastisement is due: What! can you save him who is in the fire
39:20 But (as for) those who are careful of (their duty to) their Lord, they shall have high places, above them higher places, built (for them), beneath which flow rivers; (this is) the promise of Allah: Allah will not fail in (His) promise
39:21 Do you not see that Allah sends down water from the cloud, then makes it go along in the earth in springs, then brings forth therewith herbage of various colors, then it withers so that you see it becoming yellow, then He makes it a thing crushed and broken into pieces? Most surely there is a reminder in this for the men of understanding
39:22 What! is he whose heart Allah has opened for Islam so that he is in a light from his Lord (like the hard-hearted)? Nay, woe to those whose hearts are hard against the remembrance of Allah; those are in clear error
39:23 Allah has revealed the best announcement, a book conformable in its various parts, repeating, whereat do shudder the skins of those who fear their Lord, then their skins and their hearts become pliant to the remembrance of Allah; this is Allah's guidance, He guides with it whom He pleases; and (as for) him whom Allah makes err, there is no guide for him
39:24 Is he then who has to guard himself with his own person against the evil chastisement on the resurrection day? And it will be said to the unjust: Taste what you earned
39:25 Those before them rejected (prophets), therefore there came to them the chastisement from whence they perceived not
39:26 So Allah made them taste the disgrace in this world's life, and certainly the punishment of the hereafter is greater; did they but know
39:27 And certainly We have set forth to men in this Quran similitudes of every sort that they may mind
39:28 An Arabic Quran without any crookedness, that they may guard (against evil)
39:29 Allah sets forth an example: There is a slave in whom are (several) partners differing with one another, and there is another slave wholly owned by one man. Are the two alike in condition? (All) praise is due to Allah. Nay! most of them do not know
39:30 Surely you shall die and they (too) shall surely die
39:31 Then surely on the day of resurrection you will contend one with another before. your Lord
39:32 Who is then more unjust than he who utters a lie against Allah and (he who) gives the lie to the truth when it comes to him; is there not in hell an abode for the unbelievers
39:33 And he who brings the truth and (he who) accepts it as the truth-- these are they that guard (against evil)
39:34 They shall have with their Lord what they please; that is the reward of the doers of good
39:35 So that Allah will do away with the worst of what they did and give them their reward for the best of what they do
39:36 Is not Allah sufficient for His servant? And they seek to frighten you with those besides Him; and whomsoever Allah makes err, there is no guide for him
39:37 And whom Allah guides, there is none that can lead him astray; is not Allah Mighty, the Lord of retribution
39:38 And should you ask them, Who created the heavens and the earth? They would most certainly say: Allah. Say: Have you then considered that what you call upon besides Allah, would they, if Allah desire to afflict me with harm, be the removers of His harm, or (would they), if Allah desire to show me mercy, be the withholders of His mercy? Say: Allah is sufficient for me; on Him do the reliant rely
39:39 Say: O my people! work in your place, surely I am a worker, so you will come to know
39:40 Who it is to whom there shall come a punishment which will disgrace him and to whom will be due a lasting punishment
39:41 Surely We have revealed to you the Book with the truth for the sake of men; so whoever follows the right way, it is for his own soul and whoever errs, he errs only to its detriment; and you are not a custodian over them
39:42 Allah takes the souls at the time of their death, and those that die not during their sleep; then He withholds those on whom He has passed the decree of death and sends the others back till an appointed term; most surely there are signs in this for a people who reflect
39:43 Or have they taken intercessors besides Allah? Say: what! even though they did not ever have control over anything, nor do they understand
39:44 Say: Allah's is the intercession altogether; His is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, then to Him you shall be brought back
39:45 And when Allah alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who do not believe in the hereafter shrink, and when those besides Him are mentioned, lo! they are joyful
39:46 Say: O Allah! Originator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen! Thou (only) judgest between Thy servants as to that wherein they differ
39:47 And had those who are unjust all that is in the earth and the like of it with it, they would certainly offer it as ransom (to be saved) from the evil of the punishment on the day of resurrection; and what they never thought of shall become plain to them from Allah
39:48 And the evil (consequences) of what they wrought shall become plain to them, and the very thing they mocked at shall beset them
39:49 So when harm afflicts a man he calls upon Us; then, when We give him a favor from Us, he says: I have been given it only by means of knowledge. Nay, it is a trial, but most of them do not know
39:50 Those before them did say it indeed, but what they earned availed them not
39:51 So there befell them the evil (consequences) of what they earned; and (as for) those who are unjust from among these, there shall befall them the evil (consequences) of what they earn, and they shall not escape
39:52 Do they not know that Allah makes ample the means of subsistence to whom He pleases, and He straitens; most surely there are signs in this for a people who believe
39:53 Say: O my servants! who have acted extravagantly against their own souls, do not despair of the mercy of Allah; surely Allah forgives the faults altogether; surely He is the Forgiving the Merciful
39:54 And return to your Lord time after time and submit to Him before there comes to you the punishment, then you shall not be helped
39:55 And follow the best that has been revealed to you from your Lord before there comes to you the punishment all of a sudden while you do not even perceive
39:56 Lest a soul should say: O woe to me! for what I fell short of my duty to Allah, and most surely I was of those who laughed to scorn
39:57 Or it should say: Had Allah guided me, I would certainly have been of those who guard (against evil)
39:58 Or it should say when it sees the punishment: Were there only a returning for me, I should be of the doers of good
39:59 Aye! My communications came to you, but you rejected them, and you were proud and you were one of the unbelievers
39:60 And on the day of resurrection you shall see those who lied against Allah; their faces shall be blackened. Is there not in hell an abode for the proud
39:61 And Allah shall deliver those who guard (against evil) with their achievement; evil shall not touch them, nor shall they grieve
39:62 Allah is the Creator of every thing and He has charge over every thing
39:63 His are the treasures of the heavens and the earth; and (as for) those who disbelieve in the communications of Allah, these it is that are the losers
39:64 Say: What! Do you then bid me serve others than Allah, O ignorant men
39:65 And certainly, it has been revealed to you and to those before you: Surely if you associate (with Allah), your work would certainly come to naught and you would certainly be of the losers
39:66 Nay! but serve Allah alone and be of the thankful
39:67 And they have not honored Allah with the honor that is due to Him; and the whole earth shall be in His grip on the day of resurrection and the heavens rolled up in His right hand; glory be to Him, and may He be exalted above what they associate (with Him)
39:68 And the trumpet shall be blown, so all those that are in the heavens and all those that are in the earth shall swoon, except such as Allah please; then it shall be blown again, then lo! they shall stand up awaiting
39:69 And the earth shall beam with the light of its Lord, and the Book shall be laid down, and the prophets and the witnesses shall be brought up, and judgment shall be given between them with justice, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly
39:70 And every soul shall be paid back fully what it has done, and He knows best what they do
39:71 And those who disbelieve shall be driven to hell in companies; until, when they come to it, its doors shall be opened, and the keepers of it shall say to them: Did not there come to you messengers from among you reciting to you the communications of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this day of yours? They shall say: Yea! But the sentence of punishment was due against the unbelievers
39:72 It shall be said: Enter the gates of hell to abide therein; so evil is the abode of the proud
39:73 And those who are careful of (their duty to) their Lord shall be conveyed to the garden in companies; until when they come to it, and its doors shall be opened, and the keepers of it shall say to them: Peace be on you, you shall be happy; therefore enter it to abide
39:74 And they shall say: (All) praise is due to Allah, Who has made good to us His promise, and He has made us inherit the land; we may abide in the garden where we please; so goodly is the reward of the workers
39:75 And you shall see the angels going round about the throne glorifying the praise of their Lord; and judgment shall be given between them with justice, and it shall be said: All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds
