21:25

21:25-73
*And We sent not before thee any messenger save We revealed to him that: “There is no god save I; so serve Me.”*
And they say: “The Almighty has taken a son.” Glory be to Him! But honoured servants
Precede Him not in word, but they act by His command.
*He knows what is before them, and what following them, and they intercede not save for him with whom He is pleased; and they are from fear of Him in dread.*
And whoso among them says: “I am a god besides Him!” - then that: We reward him with Gehenna; thus reward We the wrongdoers.
Have not those who ignore warning considered that the heavens and the earth were stitched together, then We ripped them apart and made of water every living thing? Will they then not believe!
*And We made in the earth firm mountains lest it sway with them; and We made therein mountain passes as ways, that they might be guided;*
And We made the sky a roof protected; but they, from its proofs, are turning away.
And He it is that created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each in a circuit swimming.
*And We appointed not eternity for a mortal before thee; if then thou wilt die, then are they eternal?*
Every soul will taste death; and We will try you with evil and good as a means of denial; and to Us will you be returned.
And when those who ignore warning see thee, they take thee only in mockery: “Is this he who mentions your gods!” And they - of the remembrance of the Almighty - they are deniers.
*Man was created of haste. I will show you My proofs, so ask Me not to make haste.*
And they say: “When is this promise, if you be truthful?”
*If those who ignore warning but knew the time when they will not restrain the Fire from their faces, nor from their backs, nor will they be helped!*
*But it will come upon them unexpectedly, and render them speechless, and they will be unable to repel it, nor will they be granted respite.*
*And messengers were mocked before thee; then there surrounded those who derided them that whereat they mocked.*
Say thou: “Who can protect you by night and day from the Almighty?” But they, from the remembrance of their Lord, are turning away.
If they have gods to defend them besides Us: they are unable to help themselves, nor are they protected from Us.
But We gave these and their fathers enjoyment until life became long for them. Have they then not considered that We come to the earth, diminishing it from its extremities? Is it then they who will be the victors?
Say thou: “I but warn you by revelation.” But the deaf hear not the call when they are warned.
And if there touch them a hint of the punishment of thy Lord, they will say: “Woe is us! We were wrongdoers.”
And We will set up the balances of equity for the Day of Resurrection, so no soul will be wronged in anything; and though it be the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it. And sufficient are We as account-takers.
And We gave Moses and Aaron the Division, and an illumination, and a remembrance for those of prudent fear:
Those who fear their Lord unseen, and are of the Hour in dread.*
And this is a blessed remembrance We sent down. Will you then not recognise it?
*And We gave Abraham his sound judgment before; and We knew him*
When he said to his father and his people: “What are these statues to which you are devoted?”
They said: “We found our fathers serving them.”
He said: “You and your fathers have been in manifest error.”
They said: “Hast thou come to us with the truth, or art thou of those who play?”
He said: “But your Lord is the Lord of the Heavens and the Earth who created them, and I am of those who bear witness to that.
“And, by God, I will plan against your idols, after you have turned and gone!”
And he made them into pieces save a great one they had, that they might return to it.
They said: “Who has done this to our gods, he is surely of the wrongdoers!”
They said: “We heard a youth make mention of them; he is called Abraham.”
They said: “Then bring him before the eyes of the people, that they might bear witness.”
They said: “Didst thou this to our gods, O Abraham?”
He said: “But this their great one did it; so ask them, if they speak.”
And they returned to themselves and said: “It is you who are the wrongdoers.”
Then they went back on themselves: “Thou knewest that these speak not.”
He said: “Then serve you, besides God, what can neither benefit you at all nor harm you?
“Fie upon you and all that you serve besides God! Will you then not use reason!”
They said: “Burn him, and support your gods, if you are doers!”
We said: “O fire: be thou coolness and safety upon Abraham.”
And they desired a plan for him, but We made them the greatest losers,
And We delivered him and Lot to the land We had blessed for all mankind.
And We gave him Isaac, and Jacob in addition; and each We made righteous,
And We made them leaders, guiding by Our command, and revealed to them the doing of good deeds (ran out of letters)
