| | Abdul Majid Daryabadi rendition of Surah The Sovereignty, Control, The Kingdom(al-Mulk) --- |
---|
67:1 | | Blest be He in whose hand is the dominion, and He is over everything Potent |
67:2 | | Who hath created death and life that He might prove you, as to which of you is excellent in work. And He is the Mighty, the Forgiver |
67:3 | | Who hath created seven heavens in storeys. Thou shalt not behold in the Compassionates creation any over-sight; then repeat thy look, beholdest thou any crack |
67:4 | | Then repeat thy look twice over, and thy look will return Unto thee dim and It will have become wearied out |
67:5 | | And assuredly We have bedecked the nearest heaven with lamps, and We have made them missiles for satans: and for them We have gotten ready the torment of the Blaze |
67:6 | | And for those who disbelieve in their Lord will be the torment of Hell; and a hapless destination |
67:7 | | When they will be cast thereinto, they will hear thereof a braying even as it balleth up |
67:8 | | Well-nigh it bursteth with rage. So oft as a company is cast thereinto, the keepers thereof will ask them: came there not Unto you a warner |
67:9 | | They will say: yea! surely there came a warner Unto us, but we belied, and said: God hath not sent down aught, are naught but in a great error |
67:10 | | And they will say: had we been wont to hearken or to reflect, we had not been among the fellows of the Blaze |
67:11 | | So they shall confess their sin. Far away they-be, the fellows of the Blaze |
67:12 | | Verily those who dread their Lord unseen, theirs shall be forgiveness and a great hire |
67:13 | | And whather ye keep your discourse secret or publish it, verily He is the Knower of that which is in the breasts |
67:14 | | Shall not He Who hath created know? And He is the Subtile, the Aware |
67:15 | | He it is Who hath made the earth Unto you subservient, so go forth in the regions thereof, and eat of His provision. And Unto Him is the Resurrection |
67:16 | | Are ye secure that He who is in the heaven will not sink the earth with you and then it should quake |
67:17 | | Or are ye secure that He Who is in the heaven will not send against you a whirlwind? Anon ye shall know what wise hath been My warning |
67:18 | | And assuredly those before them belied; then what wise hath been My wrath |
67:19 | | Behold they not the birds above them, outstretching their wings and they also withdraw them? Naught holdeth them except the Compassionate. Verily He is of everything Beholder |
67:20 | | Who.is he that can be an army Unto you and succour you, beside the Compassionate! The infidelsjb are but in delusion |
67:21 | | Who is he that can provide for you, should He withhold His provision? Aye! they persists in perverseness and aversion |
67:22 | | Is he, then, who goeth about grovelling upon his face better directed, or he who walketh evenly on a straight path |
67:23 | | Say thou: He it is who hath brought you forth and hath endowed you with hearing and sights and hearts. Little thanks it is ye give |
67:24 | | Say thou: He it is Who hath spread you over the earth, and Unto Him ye shall be gathered |
67:25 | | And they say: when will this promise be fulfilled, if ye say sooth |
67:26 | | Say thou: the knowledge is only with Allah, and but a warner manifest |
67:27 | | But when they will behold it proximating sad will be the countenances of those who disbelieve, and it will be said: this is that which ye have been calling for |
67:28 | | Say thou: bethink ye if Allah destroy me and those with me; or have mercy on us, who will protect the infidels from a torment afflictive |
67:29 | | Say thou: He is the Compassionate; in Him we have believed, and in Him we have put our trust. -And anon ye will know who it is that is in error manifest |
67:30 | | Say thou: bethink ye, were your water to be sunk away, who then could bring you water welling-up |
