|---|
| 72:1 | | Proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), “I have received the divine revelation that some jinns attentively listened to my recitation, so they said, ‘We have heard a unique Qur’an.&rsquo |
| 72:2 | | ‘That guides to the path of goodness, we have therefore accepted faith in it; and we shall never ascribe anyone as a partner to our Lord.&rsquo |
| 72:3 | | ‘And that our Lord’s Majesty is Supreme - He has neither chosen a wife nor a child.&rsquo |
| 72:4 | | ‘And that the fool among us used to utter false exaggerations against Allah.&rsquo |
| 72:5 | | ‘Whereas we thought that men and jinns would never fabricate a lie against Allah!&rsquo |
| 72:6 | | ‘And indeed some men among humans used to take the protection of some men among jinns, so it further increased their haughtiness.&rsquo |
| 72:7 | | ‘And that they assumed, like you humans assume, that Allah would not send any Noble Messenger.&rsquo |
| 72:8 | | ‘And we reached the sky, so we found it strongly guarded and filled with comets.&rsquo |
| 72:9 | | ‘And that we sometimes used to sit in some places in the sky, to listen; so whoever now listens finds a fiery comet waiting for him.&rsquo |
| 72:10 | | ‘And we do not know whether harm is intended for those on the earth, or whether their Lord intends goodness for them.&rsquo |
| 72:11 | | ‘And among us some are virtuous and some are the other type; we are split into several branches.&rsquo |
| 72:12 | | ‘And we are certain that we cannot defeat Allah in the earth, nor can we run out of His grasp.&rsquo |
| 72:13 | | ‘And that when we heard the guidance, we accepted faith in it; so whoever accepts faith in his Lord, has no fear - neither of any loss nor of any injustice.&rsquo |
| 72:14 | | ‘And that some among us are Muslims and some are the unjust; and whoever has accepted Islam – it is they who have thought rightly.&rsquo |
| 72:15 | | ‘And as for the unjust - they are the fuel of hell.’ &rdquo |
| 72:16 | | And proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), “I have received the divine revelation that ‘Had they remained upright on the straight path, We would have given them abundant water.&rsquo |
| 72:17 | | ‘In order to test them with it; and whoever turns away from the remembrance of his Lord – He will put him in a punishment that keeps on increasing.&rsquo |
| 72:18 | | ‘And that the mosques are for Allah only – therefore do not worship anyone along with Allah.&rsquo |
| 72:19 | | ‘And that when Allah’s bondman stood up to worship Him, the jinns had almost crowded upon him.’ &rdquo |
| 72:20 | | Say (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), “I worship only Allah, and I do not ascribe any partner to Him.&rdquo |
| 72:21 | | Proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), “I am not the master of any harm or benefit for you.&rdquo |
| 72:22 | | Say, “No one will ever save me from Allah, and other than Him, I will not find any refuge.&rdquo |
| 72:23 | | “I only convey the commands from Allah, and His messages; and whoever disobeys the commands of Allah and His Noble Messenger – then indeed for him is the fire of hell, in which they will remain for ever and ever.&rdquo |
| 72:24 | | Till the time when they will see what they are promised - so they will now come to know whose aide is weak, and who is lesser in number |
| 72:25 | | Say (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), “I do not know whether what you are promised is close or if my Lord will postpone it for a while.&rdquo |
| 72:26 | | The All Knowing of all the hidden does not give anyone the control over His secrets |
| 72:27 | | Except to His chosen Noble Messengers – so He appoints guards in front and behind him. (Allah gave the knowledge of the hidden to the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him. |
| 72:28 | | In order to see that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord – and His knowledge encompasses all whatever they have, and He has kept all things accounted for |
