1Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth is exalting Allāh.1569 To Him belongs dominion, and to Him belongs [all] praise, and He is over all things competent.
2It is He who created you, and among you is the disbeliever, and among you is the believer. And Allāh, of what you do, is Seeing.
3He created the heavens and earth in truth and formed you and perfected your forms; and to Him is the [final] destination.
4He knows what is within the heavens and earth and knows what you conceal and what you declare. And Allāh is Knowing of that within the breasts.
5Has there not come to you the news of those who disbelieved before? So they tasted the bad consequence of their affair, and they will have a painful punishment.
6That is because their messengers used to come to them with clear evidences, but they said, "Shall human beings guide us?" and disbelieved and turned away. And Allāh dispensed [with them]; and Allāh is Free of need and Praiseworthy.
7Those who disbelieve have claimed that they will never be resurrected. Say, "Yes, by my Lord, you will surely be resurrected; then you will surely be informed of what you did. And that, for Allāh, is easy."
8So believe in Allāh and His Messenger and the light [i.e., the Qur'ān] which We have sent down. And Allāh is Acquainted with what you do.
9The Day He will assemble you for the Day of Assembly – that is the Day of Deprivation.1570 And whoever believes in Allāh and does righteousness – He will remove from him his misdeeds and admit him to gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever. That is the great attainment.
10But the ones who disbelieved and denied Our verses – those are the companions of the Fire, abiding eternally therein; and wretched is the destination.
11No disaster strikes except by permission of Allāh. And whoever believes in Allāh – He will guide his heart. And Allāh is Knowing of all things.
12And obey Allāh and obey the Messenger; but if you turn away – then upon Our Messenger is only [the duty of] clear notification.
13Allāh – there is no deity except Him. And upon Allāh let the believers rely.
14O you who have believed, indeed, among your spouses and your children are enemies to you, so beware of them. But if you pardon and overlook and forgive – then indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
15Your wealth and your children are but a trial, and Allāh has with Him a great reward.
16So fear Allāh as much as you are able and listen and obey and spend [in the way of Allāh]; it is better for your selves. And whoever is protected from the stinginess of his soul – it is those who will be the successful.
17If you loan Allāh a goodly loan, He will multiply it for you and forgive you. And Allāh is Most Appreciative and Forbearing,
18Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
