44:3
which We sent down on a blessed night We have been warning about!
44:4
In it every wise matter is set forth
44:5
as a command from Our presence; We have been sending
44:6
mercy from your Lord. He is the Alert, Aware,
44:7
Lord of Heaven and Earth and anything in between them, if you will be convinced.
44:8
There is no deity except Him; He gives life and brings death, your Lord and the Lord of your earliest ancestors.
44:9
Instead they play around with doubt.
44:10
Watch out for the day when the sky will bring obvious smoke
44:11
to envelop mankind; this will mean painful torment:
44:12
"Our Lord, remove the torment from us; we are believers!"
44:13
Yet they had the Reminder, and an obvious messenger had already come to them.
44:14
Then they turned away from him and said: "He has been taught it; [he´s] so crazy!"
44:15
Were We to lift the torment for a while, you would still revert [to it]!
44:16
Some day We will kidnap everyone in the greatest operation; We shall be Avenged!
44:17
We tested Pharaoh´s folk before them, and a noble messenger came to them:
44:18
"Hand over God´s servants to me. I am a trustworthy messenger for you.
44:19
Do not act so haughtily concerning God: I bring you clear authority.
44:20
I have sought refuge with my Lord and your Lord, lest you cast me out.
44:21
If you do not believe in me, then keep away from me."
44:22
So he appealed to his Lord: "These are criminal folk!"
44:23
"Travel with My servants at night for you will be followed.
44:24
Leave the sea parted; they are an army who will be drowned."
44:25
How man gardens and fountains have they left behind!
44:26
And crops and a splendid position
44:27
and a life of ease they were delighted with.
44:28
Even so We let other folk inherit it from them.
44:29
Neither Heaven nor Earth wept over them, nor were they allowed to wait.
44:30
So We saved the Children of Israel from shameful torment,
44:31
from Pharaoh, who was haughty, so dissipated.
44:32
We chose them knowingly ahead of [anyone in] the Universe;
44:33
and gave them signs which contained an obvious test.
44:34
Yet the latter kept on saying:
44:35
"There is only this first death of ours; we will not be raised again.
44:36
Bring on our forefathers if you have been truthful."
44:37
Are they any better than the people of Tubba and the ones before them whom We wiped out? They were such criminals!
44:38
We did not create Heaven and Earth and anything in between them just by playing around.
44:39
We have created them both only [to reveal] the Truth, even though most of them do not realize it.
44:40
The Day for Sorting things out will mean an appointment for everyone,
44:41
a day when no patron will be able to help a favorite out in any way nor will they be supported
44:42
except for someone whom God has shown mercy to. He is the Powerful, the Merciful.
44:44
will be food for the sinner;
44:45
like molten copper, it will seethe inside (their) bellies
44:46
like a bathhouse boiler:
44:47
"Take him and drag him into the midst of Hades!
44:48
Then pour some torment of scalding water over his head:
44:49
´Taste it; you were such a powerful noble!"´
44:50
This is what you (all) were puzzling over!"´
44:51
The heedful will be in a safe position
44:52
among gardens and springs.
44:53
They will wear satin and brocade as they sit facing one another, just like that;
44:54
and We will wed them to dark-eyed damsels
44:55
They will call confidently for every kind of fruit in it.
44:56
They will not taste death there except for the very first death [they had]. He will shield them from the torment of Hades
44:57
as a boon from your Lord; that will be the supreme Achievement!
44:58
We have made it easy for your tongue [to recite] in order that they may bear this in mind.
44:59
So watch out: they too are watching!
