كَذٰلِكَ يُوۡحِىۡۤ اِلَيۡكَ وَاِلَى الَّذِيۡنَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِكَ اللّٰهُ الۡعَزِيۡزُ الۡحَكِيۡمُ‏ ٣

42:3

Thus does Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise, reveal to you, [O Muhammad], and to those before you.

لَهٗ مَا فِىۡ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِىۡ الۡاَرۡضِ ؕ وَهُوَ الۡعَلِىُّ الۡعَظِيۡمُ‏ ٤

42:4

To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth, and He is the Most High, the Most Great.

تَكَادُ السَّمٰوٰتُ يَتَفَطَّرۡنَ مِنۡ فَوۡقِهِنَّ وَالۡمَلٰٓئِكَةُ يُسَبِّحُوۡنَ بِحَمۡدِ رَبِّهِمۡ وَيَسۡتَغۡفِرُوۡنَ لِمَنۡ فِىۡ الۡاَرۡضِ ؕ اَلَاۤ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الۡغَفُوۡرُ الرَّحِيۡمُ‏ ٥

42:5

The heavens almost break from above them, as the angels exalt [Allah] with praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those on earth. Unquestionably, it is Allah who is the Forgiving, the Merciful.

وَالَّذِيۡنَ اتَّخَذُوۡا مِنۡ دُوۡنِهٖۤ اَوۡلِيَآءَ اللّٰهُ حَفِيۡظٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ۖ وَمَاۤ اَنۡتَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ بِوَكِيۡلٍ‏ ٦

42:6

And those who take protectors besides Him - Allah is [monitoring] over them, and you, [O Muhammad], are not over them a manager.

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَوۡحَيۡنَاۤ اِلَيۡكَ قُرۡاٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا لِّتُنۡذِرَ اُمَّ الۡقُرٰى وَمَنۡ حَوۡلَهَا وَتُنۡذِرَ يَوۡمَ الۡجَمۡعِ لَا رَيۡبَ فِيۡهِ ؕ فَرِيۡقٌ فِىۡ الۡجَنَّةِ وَفَرِيۡقٌ فِىۡ السَّعِيۡرِ‏ ٧

42:7

And thus have We inspired to you an Arabic Qur'an that you may warn the Mother of Cities [Makkah] and those around it and warn of the Day of Assembly, about which there is no doubt. A party will be in Paradise and a party in the Blaze.

وَلَوۡ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ لَجَعَلَهُمۡ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةً وَّلٰكِنۡ يُدۡخِلُ مَنۡ يَّشَآءُ فِىۡ رَحۡمَتِهٖ ؕ وَالظّٰلِمُوۡنَ مَا لَهُمۡ مِّنۡ وَّلِىٍّ وَّلَا نَصِيۡرٍ‏ ٨

42:8

And if Allah had willed, He could have made them [of] one religion, but He admits whom He wills into His mercy. And the wrongdoers will have no protector and no helper.

اَمِ اتَّخَذُوۡا مِنۡ دُوۡنِهٖۤ اَوۡلِيَآءَ ۚ فَاللّٰهُ هُوَ الۡوَلِىُّ وَهُوَ يُحۡىِ الۡمَوۡتٰى وَهُوَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ قَدِيۡرٌ ؕ‏ ٩

42:9

Or have they taken protectors besides Him? But Allah - He is the Protector, and He gives life to the dead, and He is over all things competent.

وَمَا اخۡتَلَفۡتُمۡ فِيۡهِ مِنۡ شَىۡءٍ فَحُكۡمُهٗۤ اِلَى اللّٰهِ ؕ ذٰلِكُمُ اللّٰهُ رَبِّىۡ عَلَيۡهِ تَوَكَّلۡتُ وَاِلَيۡهِ اُنِيۡبُ‏ ١٠

42:10

And in anything over which you disagree - its ruling is [to be referred] to Allah. [Say], "That is Allah, my Lord; upon Him I have relied, and to Him I turn in repentance."

فَاطِرُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ ؕ جَعَلَ لَكُمۡ مِّنۡ اَنۡفُسِكُمۡ اَزۡوَاجًا وَّمِنَ الۡاَنۡعَامِ اَزۡوَاجًا ۚ يَذۡرَؤُكُمۡ فِيۡهِ ؕ لَيۡسَ كَمِثۡلِهٖ شَىۡءٌ ۚ وَهُوَ السَّمِيۡعُ الۡبَصِيۡرُ‏ ١١

42:11

[He is] Creator of the heavens and the earth. He has made for you mates from among yourselves, and mates from the cattle; He multiplies you thereby. There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the Hearing, the Seeing.

لَهٗ مَقَالِيۡدُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ ۚ يَبۡسُطُ الرِّزۡقَ لِمَنۡ يَّشَآءُ وَيَقۡدِرُ ؕ اِنَّهٗ بِكُلِّ شَىۡءٍ عَلِيۡمٌ‏ ١٢

42:12

To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth. He extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it]. Indeed, He is, of all things, Knowing.

شَرَعَ لَكُمۡ مِّنَ الدِّيۡنِ مَا وَصّٰى بِهٖ نُوۡحًا وَّالَّذِىۡۤ اَوۡحَيۡنَاۤ اِلَيۡكَ وَمَا وَصَّيۡنَا بِهٖۤ اِبۡرٰهِيۡمَ وَمُوۡسٰى وَعِيۡسٰىۤ اَنۡ اَقِيۡمُوا الدِّيۡنَ وَلَا تَتَفَرَّقُوۡا فِيۡهِ ؕ كَبُرَ عَلَى الۡمُشۡرِكِيۡنَ مَا تَدۡعُوۡهُمۡ اِلَيۡهِ ؕ اَللّٰهُ يَجۡتَبِىۡۤ اِلَيۡهِ مَنۡ يَّشَآءُ وَيَهۡدِىۡۤ اِلَيۡهِ مَنۡ يُّنِيۡبُ‏ ١٣

42:13

He has ordained for you of religion what He enjoined upon Noah and that which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses and Jesus - to establish the religion and not be divided therein. Difficult for those who associate others with Allah is that to which you invite them. Allah chooses for Himself whom He wills and guides to Himself whoever turns back [to Him].

وَمَا تَفَرَّقُوۡۤا اِلَّا مِنۡۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ الۡعِلۡمُ بَغۡيًا ۢ بَيۡنَهُمۡ ؕ وَلَوۡلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتۡ مِنۡ رَّبِّكَ اِلٰىۤ اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى لَّقُضِىَ بَيۡنَهُمۡ ؕ وَاِنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ اُوۡرِثُوۡا الۡكِتٰبَ مِنۡۢ بَعۡدِهِمۡ لَفِىۡ شَكٍّ مِّنۡهُ مُرِيۡبٍ‏ ١٤

42:14

And they did not become divided until after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And if not for a word that preceded from your Lord [deferring punishment] until a specified time, it would have been concluded between them. And indeed, those who were granted inheritance of the Scripture after them are in disquieting doubt concerning it.

فَلِذٰلِكَ فَادۡعُ ۚ وَاسۡتَقِمۡ كَمَاۤ اُمِرۡتَ ۚ وَلَا تَتَّبِعۡ اَهۡوَآءَهُمۡ ۚ وَقُلۡ اٰمَنۡتُ بِمَاۤ اَنۡزَلَ اللّٰهُ مِنۡ كِتٰبٍ ۚ وَاُمِرۡتُ لِاَعۡدِلَ بَيۡنَكُمُ ؕ اَللّٰهُ رَبُّنَا وَرَبُّكُمۡ ؕ لَنَاۤ اَعۡمَالُنَا وَلَكُمۡ اَعۡمَالُكُمۡ ۚ لَا حُجَّةَ بَيۡنَنَا وَبَيۡنَكُمُ ؕ اَللّٰهُ يَجۡمَعُ بَيۡنَنَا ۚ وَاِلَيۡهِ الۡمَصِيۡرُ‏ ١٥

42:15

So to that [religion of Allah] invite, and remain on a straight course as you were commanded, and do not follow their inclinations but say, "I have believed in what Allah has revealed of [the] Book, and I have been commanded to do justice among you. Allah is our Lord and your Lord. For us are our deeds, and for you are your deeds. There is no [need for] argument between us and you. Allah will bring us together, and to Him is the final destination."

وَالَّذِيۡنَ يُحَآجُّوۡنَ فِىۡ اللّٰهِ مِنۡۢ بَعۡدِ مَا اسۡتُجِيۡبَ لَهٗ حُجَّتُهُمۡ دَاحِضَةٌ عِنۡدَ رَبِّهِمۡ وَعَلَيۡهِمۡ غَضَبٌ وَّلَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ شَدِيۡدٌ‏ ١٦

42:16

And those who argue concerning Allah after He has been responded to - their argument is refuted with their Lord, and upon them is [His] wrath, and for them is a severe punishment.

اللّٰهُ الَّذِىۡۤ اَنۡزَلَ الۡكِتٰبَ بِالۡحَقِّ وَالۡمِيۡزَانَ ؕ وَمَا يُدۡرِيۡكَ لَعَلَّ السَّاعَةَ قَرِيۡبٌ‏ ١٧

42:17

It is Allah who has sent down the Book in truth and the balance. And what will make you perceive that [perhaps] the Hour is near?

يَسۡتَعۡجِلُ بِهَا الَّذِيۡنَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ بِهَا ۚ وَالَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا مُشۡفِقُوۡنَ مِنۡهَا وَيَعۡلَمُوۡنَ اَنَّهَا الۡحَقُّ ؕ اَلَاۤ اِنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ يُمَارُوۡنَ فِىۡ السَّاعَةِ لَفِىۡ ضَلٰلٍ ۢ بَعِيۡدٍ‏ ١٨

42:18

Those who do not believe in it seek to hasten it, but those who believe are fearful of it and know that it is the truth. Unquestionably, those who dispute concerning the Hour are in extreme error.

اللّٰهُ لَطِيۡفٌۢ بِعِبَادِهٖ يَرۡزُقُ مَنۡ يَّشَآءُ ۚ وَهُوَ الۡقَوِىُّ الۡعَزِيۡزُ‏ ١٩

42:19

Allah is subtle with His servants; He gives provision to whom He wills. And He is the Powerful, the Exalted in Might.

مَنۡ كَانَ يُرِيۡدُ حَرۡثَ الۡاٰخِرَةِ نَزِدۡ لَهٗ فِىۡ حَرۡثِهٖ ۚ وَمَنۡ كَانَ يُرِيۡدُ حَرۡثَ الدُّنۡيَا نُؤۡتِهٖ مِنۡهَا وَمَا لَهٗ فِىۡ الۡاٰخِرَةِ مِنۡ نَّصِيۡبٍ‏ ٢٠

42:20

Whoever desires the harvest of the Hereafter - We increase for him in his harvest. And whoever desires the harvest of this world - We give him thereof, but there is not for him in the Hereafter any share.

اَمۡ لَهُمۡ شُرَكٰٓؤُا شَرَعُوۡا لَهُمۡ مِّنَ الدِّيۡنِ مَا لَمۡ يَاۡذَنۡۢ بِهِ اللّٰهُ ؕ وَلَوۡلَا كَلِمَةُ الۡفَصۡلِ لَقُضِىَ بَيۡنَهُمۡ ؕ وَاِنَّ الظّٰلِمِيۡنَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ اَلِيۡمٌ‏ ٢١

42:21

Or have they other deities who have ordained for them a religion which Allah has not permitted? But had it not been for the decisive word [i.e., decree from Allah], it would have been judged between them. And indeed, the wrongdoers will have a painful punishment.

تَرَى الظّٰلِمِيۡنَ مُشۡفِقِيۡنَ مِمَّا كَسَبُوۡا وَهُوَ وَاقِعٌۢ بِهِمۡ ؕ وَالَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَعَمِلُوۡا الصّٰلِحٰتِ فِىۡ رَوۡضٰتِ الۡجَنّٰتِ ۚ لَهُمۡ مَّا يَشَآءُوۡنَ عِنۡدَ رَبِّهِمۡ ؕ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الۡفَضۡلُ الۡكَبِيۡرُ‏ ٢٢

42:22

You will see the wrongdoers fearful of what they have earned, and it will [surely] befall them. But those who have believed and done righteous deeds will be in the luxurious gardens of Paradise, having whatever they wish in the presence of their Lord. That is the great bounty.

ذٰلِكَ الَّذِىۡ يُبَشِّرُ اللّٰهُ عِبَادَهُ الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَعَمِلُوۡا الصّٰلِحٰتِ ؕ قُل لَّاۤ اَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ اَجۡرًا اِلَّا الۡمَوَدَّةَ فِىۡ الۡقُرۡبٰى ؕ وَمَنۡ يَقۡتَرِفۡ حَسَنَةً نَّزِدۡ لَهٗ فِيۡهَا حُسۡنًا ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ غَفُوۡرٌ شَكُوۡرٌ‏ ٢٣

42:23

That is what Allah gives good tidings of to His servants who believe and do righteous deeds. Say, [O Muhammad], "I do not ask you for the reward for this [Qur'an] except affection for [my] kindred." And whoever earns a good deed - We will increase for him good therein. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Appreciative.

اَمۡ يَقُوۡلُوۡنَ افۡتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا ۚ فَاِنۡ يَّشَاِ اللّٰهُ يَخۡتِمۡ عَلٰى قَلۡبِكَ ؕ وَيَمۡحُ اللّٰهُ الۡبَاطِلَ وَيُحِقُّ الۡحَقَّ بِكَلِمٰتِهٖ ؕ اِنَّهٗ عَلِيۡمٌ ۢ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُوۡرِ‏ ٢٤

42:24

Or do they say, "He has invented about Allah a lie"? But if Allah had willed, He could have sealed over your heart. And Allah abolishes falsehood and confirms the truth by His words. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.

وَهُوَ الَّذِىۡ يَقۡبَلُ التَّوۡبَةَ عَنۡ عِبَادِهٖ وَيَعۡفُوۡ عَنِ السَّيِّاٰتِ وَيَعۡلَمُ مَا تَفۡعَلُوۡنَ‏ ٢٥

42:25

And it is He who accepts repentance from His servants and pardons sins, and He knows what you do.

وَيَسۡتَجِيۡبُ الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَيَزِيۡدُهُمۡ مِّنۡ فَضۡلِهٖ ؕ وَالۡكٰفِرُوۡنَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ شَدِيۡدٌ‏ ٢٦

42:26

And He answers [the supplication of] those who have believed and done righteous deeds and increases [reward] for them from His bounty. But the disbelievers will have a severe punishment.

وَلَوۡ بَسَطَ اللّٰهُ الرِّزۡقَ لِعِبَادِهٖ لَبَغَوۡا فِىۡ الۡاَرۡضِ وَلٰكِنۡ يُنَزِّلُ بِقَدَرٍ مَّا يَشَآءُ ؕ اِنَّهٗ بِعِبَادِهٖ خَبِيۡرٌ ۢ بَصِيۡرٌ‏ ٢٧

42:27

And if Allah had extended [unlimited] provision for His servants, they would have committed tyranny throughout the earth. But He sends down [provision] in due measure as He wills. Indeed, He is, of His servants, Acquainted and Seeing.

وَهُوَ الَّذِىۡ يُنَزِّلُ الۡغَيۡثَ مِنۡۢ بَعۡدِ مَا قَنَطُوۡا وَيَنۡشُرُ رَحۡمَتَهٗ ؕ وَهُوَ الۡوَلِىُّ الۡحَمِيۡدُ‏ ٢٨

42:28

And it is He who sends down the rain after they have despaired and spreads His mercy. And He is the Protector, the Praiseworthy.

وَمِنۡ اٰيٰتِهٖ خَلۡقُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ وَمَا بَثَّ فِيۡهِمَا مِنۡ دَآبَّةٍ ؕ وَهُوَ عَلٰى جَمۡعِهِمۡ اِذَا يَشَآءُ قَدِيۡرٌ‏ ٢٩

42:29

And of His signs is the creation of the heavens and earth and what He has dispersed throughout them of creatures. And He, for gathering them when He wills, is competent.

وَمَاۤ اَصَابَكُمۡ مِّنۡ مُّصِيۡبَةٍ فَبِمَا كَسَبَتۡ اَيۡدِيۡكُمۡ وَيَعۡفُوۡ عَنۡ كَثِيۡرٍ‏ ٣٠

42:30

And whatever disaster strikes you is for what your own hands have earned, and He pardons much.

وَمَاۤ اَنۡتُمۡ بِمُعۡجِزِيۡنَ فِىۡ الۡاَرۡضِ ۚ وَمَا لَكُمۡ مِّنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِ مِنۡ وَّلِىٍّ وَّلَا نَصِيۡرٍ‏ ٣١

42:31

And you are not to cause failure [to Allah] upon the earth, and you have not besides Allah any protector or helper.

وَمِنۡ اٰيٰتِهِ الۡجَوَارِ فِىۡ الۡبَحۡرِ كَالۡاَعۡلَامِ ؕ‏ ٣٢

42:32

And of His signs are the ships in the sea like mountains.

اِنۡ يَّشَاۡ يُسۡكِنِ الرِّيۡحَ فَيَظۡلَلۡنَ رَوَاكِدَ عَلٰى ظَهۡرِهٖ ؕ اِنَّ فِىۡ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍ شَكُوۡرٍ ۙ‏ ٣٣

42:33

If He wills, He quiets the wind, and they remain motionless on its surface. Indeed in that are signs for everyone patient and grateful.

اَوۡ يُوۡبِقۡهُنَّ بِمَا كَسَبُوۡا وَيَعۡفُ عَنۡ كَثِيۡرٍ ۙ‏ ٣٤

42:34

Or He wrecks them for what they earned, and He pardons much.

وَيَعۡلَمَ الَّذِيۡنَ يُجَادِلُوۡنَ فِىۡۤ اٰيٰتِنَا ؕ مَا لَهُمۡ مِّنۡ مَّحِيۡصٍ‏ ٣٥

42:35

And those who dispute concerning Our signs may know that for them there is no place of escape.

فَمَاۤ اُوۡتِيۡتُمۡ مِّنۡ شَىۡءٍ فَمَتَاعُ الۡحَيٰوةِ الدُّنۡيَا ۚ وَمَا عِنۡدَ اللّٰهِ خَيۡرٌ وَّاَبۡقٰى لِلَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَعَلٰى رَبِّهِمۡ يَتَوَكَّلُوۡنَ ۚ‏ ٣٦

42:36

So whatever thing you have been given - it is but [for] the enjoyment of worldly life. But what is with Allah is better and more lasting for those who have believed and upon their Lord rely.

وَالَّذِيۡنَ يَجۡتَنِبُوۡنَ كَبٰٓئِرَ الۡاِثۡمِ وَالۡفَوَاحِشَ وَاِذَا مَا غَضِبُوۡا هُمۡ يَغۡفِرُوۡنَ ۚ‏ ٣٧

42:37

And those who avoid the major sins and immoralities, and when they rage, they forgive;

وَالَّذِيۡنَ اسۡتَجَابُوۡا لِرَبِّهِمۡ وَاَقَامُوۡا الصَّلٰوةَ ۖ وَاَمۡرُهُمۡ شُوۡرٰى بَيۡنَهُمۡ ۖ وَمِمَّا رَزَقۡنٰهُمۡ يُنۡفِقُوۡنَ ۚ‏ ٣٨

42:38

And those who have responded to their Lord and established prayer and whose affair is [determined by] consultation among themselves, and from what We have provided them, they spend.

وَالَّذِيۡنَ اِذَاۤ اَصَابَهُمُ الۡبَغۡىُ هُمۡ يَنۡتَصِرُوۡنَ‏ ٣٩

42:39

And those who, when tyranny strikes them, they defend themselves,

وَجَزٰٓؤُا سَيِّئَةٍ سَيِّئَةٌ مِّثۡلُهَا ۚ فَمَنۡ عَفَا وَاَصۡلَحَ فَاَجۡرُهٗ عَلَى اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّهٗ لَا يُحِبُّ الظّٰلِمِيۡنَ‏ ٤٠

42:40

And the recompense of an evil deed is an evil deed equal thereto. But whoever pardons and makes reconciliation - his reward is [due] from Allah. Indeed, He does not like wrongdoers.

وَلَمَنِ انۡتَصَرَ بَعۡدَ ظُلۡمِهٖ فَاُولٰٓئِكَ مَا عَلَيۡهِمۡ مِّنۡ سَبِيۡلٍ ؕ‏ ٤١

42:41

And whoever defends himself after having been wronged - those [persons] are not to be blamed

اِنَّمَا السَّبِيۡلُ عَلَى الَّذِيۡنَ يَظۡلِمُوۡنَ النَّاسَ وَيَبۡغُوۡنَ فِىۡ الۡاَرۡضِ بِغَيۡرِ الۡحَقِّ ؕ اُولٰٓئِكَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ اَلِيۡمٌ‏ ٤٢

42:42

The blame is only upon those who wrong the people and tyrannize upon the earth without right. Those will have a painful punishment.

وَلَمَنۡ صَبَرَ وَغَفَرَ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ لَمِنۡ عَزۡمِ الۡاُمُوۡرِ‏ ٤٣

42:43

And whoever is patient and forgives - indeed, that is of the matters [requiring] determination.

وَمَنۡ يُّضۡلِلِ اللّٰهُ فَمَا لَهٗ مِنۡ وَّلِىٍّ مِّنۡۢ بَعۡدِهٖ ؕ وَتَرَى الظّٰلِمِيۡنَ لَمَّا رَاَوۡا الۡعَذَابَ يَقُوۡلُوۡنَ هَلۡ اِلٰى مَرَدٍّ مِّنۡ سَبِيۡلٍ ۙ‏ ٤٤

42:44

And he whom Allah leaves astray - for him there is no protector after Him. And you will see the wrongdoers, when they see the punishment, saying, "Is there any way to return [to the worldly life]?"

وَتَرٰٮهُمۡ يُعۡرَضُوۡنَ عَلَيۡهَا خٰشِعِيۡنَ مِنَ الذُّلِّ يَنۡظُرُوۡنَ مِنۡ طَرۡفٍ خَفِىٍّ ؕ وَقَالَ الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا اِنَّ الۡخٰسِرِيۡنَ الَّذِيۡنَ خَسِرُوۡۤا اَنۡفُسَهُمۡ وَاَهۡلِيۡهِمۡ يَوۡمَ الۡقِيٰمَةِ ؕ اَلَاۤ اِنَّ الظّٰلِمِيۡنَ فِىۡ عَذَابٍ مُّقِيۡمٍ‏ ٤٥

42:45

And you will see them being exposed to it, humbled from humiliation, looking from [behind] a covert glance. And those who believed will say, "Indeed, the losers are the ones who lost themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, the wrongdoers are in lasting punishment."

وَمَا كَانَ لَهُمۡ مِّنۡ اَوۡلِيَآءَ يَنۡصُرُوۡنَهُمۡ مِّنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِ ؕ وَمَنۡ يُّضۡلِلِ اللّٰهُ فَمَا لَهٗ مِنۡ سَبِيۡلٍ‏ ٤٦

42:46

And there will be for them no allies to aid them other than Allah. And he whom Allah leaves astray - there is for him no way [of return].

اِسۡتَجِيۡبُوۡا لِرَبِّكُمۡ مِّنۡ قَبۡلِ اَنۡ يَّاۡتِىَ يَوۡمٌ لَّا مَرَدَّ لَهٗ مِنَ اللّٰهِ ؕ مَا لَكُمۡ مِّنۡ مَّلۡجَاٍ يَوۡمَئِذٍ وَّمَا لَكُمۡ مِّنۡ نَّكِيۡرٍ‏ ٤٧

42:47

Respond to your Lord before there comes from Allah a Day for which there will be no repelling. You will have no refuge that day, nor will you have cause to deny [your sins].

فَاِنۡ اَعۡرَضُوۡا فَمَاۤ اَرۡسَلۡنٰكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَفِيۡظًا ؕ اِنۡ عَلَيۡكَ اِلَّا الۡبَلٰغُ ؕ وَاِنَّاۤ اِذَاۤ اَذَقۡنَا الۡاِنۡسَانَ مِنَّا رَحۡمَةً فَرِحَ بِهَا ۚ وَاِنۡ تُصِبۡهُمۡ سَيِّئَةٌۢ بِمَا قَدَّمَتۡ اَيۡدِيۡهِمۡ فَاِنَّ الۡاِنۡسَانَ كَفُوۡرٌ‏ ٤٨

42:48

But if they turn away - then We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], over them as a guardian; upon you is only [the duty of] notification. And indeed, when We let man taste mercy from us, he rejoices in it; but if evil afflicts them for what their hands have put forth, then indeed, is man ungrateful.

لِلّٰهِ مُلۡكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ ؕ يَخۡلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ ؕ يَهَبُ لِمَنۡ يَّشَآءُ اِنَاثًا وَّيَهَبُ لِمَنۡ يَّشَآءُ الذُّكُوۡرَ ۙ‏ ٤٩

42:49

To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. He creates what He wills. He gives to whom He wills female [children], and He gives to whom He wills males.

اَوۡ يُزَوِّجُهُمۡ ذُكۡرَانًا وَّاِنَاثًا ۚ وَيَجۡعَلُ مَنۡ يَّشَآءُ عَقِيۡمًا ؕ اِنَّهٗ عَلِيۡمٌ قَدِيۡرٌ‏ ٥٠

42:50

Or He makes them [both] males and females, and He renders whom He wills barren. Indeed, He is Knowing and Competent.

وَمَا كَانَ لِبَشَرٍ اَنۡ يُّكَلِّمَهُ اللّٰهُ اِلَّا وَحۡيًا اَوۡ مِنۡ وَّرَآئِ حِجَابٍ اَوۡ يُرۡسِلَ رَسُوۡلًا فَيُوۡحِىَ بِاِذۡنِهٖ مَا يَشَآءُ ؕ اِنَّهٗ عَلِىٌّ حَكِيۡمٌ‏ ٥١

42:51

And it is not for any human being that Allah should speak to him except by [direct] inspiration or from behind a partition or that He sends a messenger to reveal by His permission whatever He wills. Indeed, He is Most High, All-Wise.

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَوۡحَيۡنَاۤ اِلَيۡكَ رُوۡحًا مِّنۡ اَمۡرِنَا ؕ مَا كُنۡتَ تَدۡرِىۡ مَا الۡكِتٰبُ وَلَا الۡاِيۡمَانُ وَلٰكِنۡ جَعَلۡنٰهُ نُوۡرًا نَّهۡدِىۡ بِهٖ مَنۡ نَّشَآءُ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ؕ وَاِنَّكَ لَتَهۡدِىۡۤ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسۡتَقِيۡمٍ ۙ‏ ٥٢

42:52

And thus We have sent to you an inspiration of Our command. You did not know what the Scripture was or [what] the faith [was]. But We have made it a light by which We guide whom We will of Our servants. And indeed, [O Muhammad], you guide to a straight path -

صِرَاطِ اللّٰهِ الَّذِىۡ لَهٗ مَا فِىۡ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِىۡ الۡاَرۡضِ ؕ اَلَاۤ اِلَى اللّٰهِ تَصِيۡرُ الۡاُمُوۡرُ‏ ٥٣

42:53

The path of Allah, to whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Unquestionably, to Allah do [all] matters evolve.
