| | Farook Malik rendition of Surah The Sovereignty, Control, The Kingdom(al-Mulk)
--- |
|---|
| 67:1 | | Blessed be He in Whose hands is the Kingdom of the universe and has power over all things |
| 67:2 | | The One Who created death and life, so that He may put you to test, to find out which of you is best in deeds: He is the All-Mighty, the All-Forgiving |
| 67:3 | | The One Who created the seven heavens, one above another, you will not see any flaw in the creation of the Compassionate. Look once again, do you see any flaw |
| 67:4 | | Then look still another time, yet again your sight will come back bewildered, and feel exhausted |
| 67:5 | | We have decorated the heaven of this world with lamps and We made them as missiles for pelting the Satans and thus prepared for them the scourge of flames |
| 67:6 | | As for those who disbelieve their Lord, there will be the punishment of hell, which is an evil abode |
| 67:7 | | When they will be plunged into its fire, they shall hear its roaring and boilin |
| 67:8 | | as though bursting with rage. Every time a group is plunged therein, its guards will ask: "Did not a Warner come to you?" |
| 67:9 | | They will answer: "Yes indeed, a Warner did come to us, but we rejected him and said, Allah has revealed nothing - you are merely in gross error." |
| 67:10 | | They will further say: "Had we only listened or used our intelligence, we would have not been among the inmates of the blazing fire." |
| 67:11 | | Thus shall they confess their sin; so away from the mercy of Allah will be the dwellers of hell |
| 67:12 | | As for those who fear their Lord, although they have not seen Him, shall have forgiveness and a great reward |
| 67:13 | | Whether you speak in secret or aloud, surely He is aware of all that is in the breasts |
| 67:14 | | Would He, Who has created them, not know? He is the Knower of finest mysteries, and aware of everything |
| 67:15 | | It is He Who has made the earth subservient to you, to walk through its tracts and eat of His provided sustenance. To Him is the return at resurrection |
| 67:16 | | Do you feel secure that He Who is in heaven, will not cause the earth to cave in beneath you and start shaking suddenly |
| 67:17 | | Or do you feel secure that He Who is in heaven will not send against you a violent tornado, then you shall know how was My warning |
| 67:18 | | Those who have gone before them likewise disbelieved, then see how terrible was the way I rejected them |
| 67:19 | | Do they not observe the birds above them spreading their wings and folding them? None could hold them except the Compassionate (Allah), surely it is He Who watches over all things |
| 67:20 | | What force is there that can help you besides the Compassionate? In fact, the unbelievers are suffering from delusion |
| 67:21 | | Or who is there that can provide you if He withholds His provision? Yet, they persist in rebellion and aversion from the truth |
| 67:22 | | Just think, who is rightly guided: he who walks with his face bent down, or he who walks properly on an even path |
| 67:23 | | Say: "It is He Who has brought you into being, gave you the faculties of hearing, seeing, feeling and understanding: yet you are seldom thankful." |
| 67:24 | | Say: "It is He Who has multiplied you in the earth, and before Him you shall all be assembled." |
| 67:25 | | They ask: "When will this promise be fulfilled, if what you say is true?" |
| 67:26 | | Tell them: "Allah Alone has the knowledge of that; my mission is only to warn you plainly." |
| 67:27 | | But, when they shall see it close at hand, the faces of the disbelievers will turn black with gloom, and it will be said to them: "This is which you were calling for." |
| 67:28 | | Further say: "Have you ever considered that even if Allah destroys me as well as those with me or bestows His mercy on us; who will save the disbelievers from a painful punishment?" |
| 67:29 | | Say: "He is the Compassionate: in Him we have believed, and in Him we have put our trust. Soon you will find out, which one of us is in the manifest error." |
| 67:30 | | Say: "Have you ever considered that if all the water you have, sink down in the ground, who is it, that will bring you the clear-flowing water?" |
