6. And there is no

moving creature on

earth but upon Allah is

knows its dwelling

place and its place of

storage. All is in a clear

Record.

7. And He is the One

Who created the

heavens and the earth

in six epochs, and His

throne was on the water

that He might test

which of you is best in

deed. But if you say,

“Indeed, you will be

resurrected after death,”

those who disbelieve

will surely say, “This is

nothing but a clear

magic.”

8. And if We delay

punishment for a

determined time, they

will surely say, “What

On the Day it comes to

them, it will not be

averted from them, and

they will be surrounded

by what they used to

mock at.

9. And if We give man a

taste of Mercy from Us

and then withdraw it

from him, indeed,

he is despairing and

ungrateful.

10. But if We give

him a taste of favor

after hardship has

touched him, he will

surely say, “The evils

have departed from

me.” Indeed, he is

exultant and boastful.

becausethey say,“Why notis sent downfor hima treasureorhas come

“Then bringtenSurahslike itfabricated,and callwhoever

you canbesides Allahifyou aretruthful.”13Then if not

they respondto youthen knowthatit was sent downwith the knowledge of Allah,

and that(there is) nogodexceptHim.Then, wouldyou(be) Muslims?

forgiveness and a great

reward.

12. Then would you

possibly give up a part

of what is revealed to

you, and your breast is

straitened by it because

they say, “Why a

treasure is not sent

down for him or an

Angel come with him?”

But you are only a

warner. And Allahis a Guardian over

everything.

13. Or they say, “He has

fabricated it.” Say,

“Then bring ten Surahs

like it that have been

fabricated and call

whoever you can (for

assistance) besides

Allah if you are

truthful.”

14. And if they do not

respond to you, then

know that it was

revealed with the

knowledge of Allah,

and that there is no god

except Him. Then,

would you be

Muslims?

15. Whoever desires

the life of this world

and its adornments, We

will fully repay them

for their deeds therein,

and they in that will not

be lessened.

16. They are those for

whom there is nothing

in the Hereafter except

the Fire. And has gone

in vain what they did

therein, and worthless

is what they used to do.

17. Is he who is on a

clear proof from his

Lord, and a witness

from Him recites it,

and before it

(was) a Book(of) Musa(as) a guideand (as) mercy?Thosebelievein it.

But whoeverdisbelievesin itamongthe sects,then the Fire

(is) the truthfromyour Lord,butmost(of) the people(do) not

Allaha lie?Thosewill be presentedbeforetheir Lord,and will say

the witnesses,“These (are)those wholiedagainsttheir Lord.”No doubt!

(The) curse of Allah(is) onthe wrongdoers.18Those whohinderfrom

Surah 11: Hud (v. 18-22) Part - 12

was the Book of Musa

as a guide and (a

source of ) mercy?

They believe in it. But

whoever disbelieves

in it from the sects,

then the Fire will be

his promised meeting-

place. So do not be in

doubt about it.

Indeed, it is a truth

from your Lord, but

most of the people do

not believe.

18. And who is more

unjust than the one

who invents a lie

against Allah? Those

will be presented

before their Lord, and

the witnesses will say,

“These are the ones

who lied against their

Lord. ” No doubt! The

curse of Allah is on

the wrongdoers.

19. Those who hinder

(men) from the way of

Allah and seek

crookedness in it,

while they are

disbelievers in the

Hereafter.

20. They will not be

able to escape in the

earth nor do they have

besides Allah any

prot ectors. And the

punishment will be

doubled for them.

They were not able to

hear, nor did they

see.

21. Those are the

ones who have lost

their souls, and lost

from them is what

they used to invent.

22. Without a doubt,

in the Hereafter, they

will be the greatest

losers.

306

23. Indeed, those who

believe and do good

deeds and humble

themselves before their

Lord, those are the

companions of

Paradise, they will

abide in it forever.

24. The example of the

two parties is like the

blind and the deaf and

the seer and the hearer.

Are they equal in

comparison? Then, will

you not take heed?

25. And verily, We sent

Nuh to his people

(saying), “Indeed, I am

a clear warner to you.

26. That do not

worship except Allah.

Indeed, I fear for you

the punishment of a

painful Day.”

27. So the chiefs of

those who disbelieved

from his people said,

“We do not see you but

as a man like us, and

we do not see you

followed except by

those who are the

lowest of us, immature

in opinion. And we do

not see any merit in

you over us; nay, we

think you are liars.”

28. He said, “O my

people! Do you see if I

was on the clear proof

from my Lord while He

has given me mercy

from Himself but it has

been obscured from

you, should we compel

you to accept it while

you are averse to it?

29. And O my people! I

do not ask of you for it

any wealth. My reward

is from none

Indeed,those whobelieveand dogood deedsand humble themselvesbefore

their Lord,those(are the) companions(of) Paradise,theyin it

(will) abide forever.23(The) example(of) the two parties(is) like the blind

and the deaf,and the seerand the hearer.Arethey equal(in) comparison?

Then, will notyou take heed?24And verilyWe sentNuhtohis people,

“Indeed, I amto youa warnerclear.25That(do) notworshipexcept

Allah.Indeed, I[I] fearfor you(the) punishment(of) a Daypainful.”26

So saidthe chiefs(of) those whodisbelievedfromhis people,“Notwe see you

buta manlike us,and notwe see youfollowed [you]exceptthose who

[they](are) the lowest of usimmature in opinion.And notwe seein youover us

anymerit;nay,we think you(are) liars.”27He said,“O my people!

Do you seeifI wason(the) clear prooffrommy Lord,while He has given me

mercyfromHimselfbut (it) has been obscuredfrom you,

should We compel you (to accept) itwhile you (are)averse to it?28

And O my people!notI ask (of) youfor itany wealth.Not(is) my reward

Surah 11: Hud (v. 23-29) Part - 12

307

exceptfromAllah.And notI amgoing to drive awaythose whobelieved.

Indeed, they(will) be meetingtheir Lord,but Isee you(are) a people

ignorant.29And O my people!Whowould help meagainstAllah

ifI drove them away?Then, will notyou take heed?30And notI say

to you(that) with me(are the) treasures(of) Allah,and notI knowthe unseen,

and notI saythat I aman Angel,and notI sayfor those whomlook down upon

your eyes,neverwill Allah give themany good.Allahknows bestwhat(is) in

their souls.Indeed, Ithen(will be) surely ofthe wrongdoers.”31They said,

“O Nuh!Indeed,you disputed with usand you (have been) frequent(in) dispute with us.

So bring uswhatyou threaten us (with),ifyou areofthe truthful.”

32He said,“Onlywill bring it (on) youAllah,ifHe wills,and not

you (are)one who (can) escape (it).33And (will) notbenefit youmy advice

(even) ifI wishto[I] advise[to] you,ifwillto

let you go astray.He (is)your Lord,and to Himyou will be returned.”34Or

(do) they say,“He has invented it?”Say,“ IfI have invented it,then on me

Surah 11: Hud (v. 30-35) Part - 12

but Allah. And I am not

going to drive away

those who have

believed. Indeed, they

will meet their Lord,

but I see you are an

ignorant people.

30. And O my people!

Who would help me

against Allah if I drove

them away? Then, will

you not take heed?

31. And I do not say to

you that with me are

the treasures of Allah

or that I know the

unseen, nor I say that I

am an Angel, nor do I

say of those upon

whom your eyes look

down that Allah will

never give them any

good. Allah knows best

what is in their souls.

Indeed, I would then

be of the wrongdoers.”

32. They said, “O Nuh!

Indeed, you disputed

with us and have been

frequent in dispute with

us. So bring us what

you threaten us with, if

you are truthful.”

33. He said, “Only Allah

will bring it on you if

He wills, and you

cannot escape it.

34. And my advice

will not benefit you,

although I wish to

advise you, if Allah

wills to let you go

astray. He is your Lord

and to Him you will be

returned.”

35. Or do they say,

“ He has invented it?”

Say, “If I have invented

it, then on me

308

it was Allah’s

(is) my crime,but I aminnocentof whatcrimes you commit.”35

And it was revealedtoNuh,“Thatwill neverbelievefromyour people

except(those) whohave alreadybelieved.So (do) not(be) distressedby what

they have beendoing.36And constructthe shipunder Our Eyes,

and Our inspirationand (do) notaddress Meconcerningthose whowronged;

indeed, they (are)the ones (to be) drowned.”37And he was constructing

the ship,and every timepassedby him(the) chiefsofhis people,

they ridiculed[of] him.He said,“ Ifyou ridiculeus,then wecan ridicule

youasyou ridicule.38And soonyou will know(on) whom

will comea punishment(that) will disgrace him,and will descendon hima punishment

We said,“Loadin itofevery kinda pairtwo,and your familyexcept

Surah 11: Hud (v. 36-41) Part - 12

309

is (the consequence of)

my crime, but I am

innocent of what crimes

you commit.”

And it was revealed

to Nuh that, “None of

your people will believe

except those who have

already believed. So do

not be distressed by what

they have been doing.

And construct the ship

under observation

and inspiration and

do not address

concerning those who

have wronged; indeed,

they are to be drowned.”

And he was

constructing the ship,

and every time the chiefs

of his people passed by

him, they ridiculed him.

He said, “If you ridicule

us, then we will ridicule

you (just) as you

ridicule.

And soon you

will know on whom a

punishment will come

that will disgrace him

and on whom will

descend a lasting

punishment.”

Till when

command came and the

oven (earth’s lowlands)

overflowed, said,

“Load on it (ship) of

every kind, a pair, and

your family, except

those against whom the

word has preceded, and

(include) whoever has

believed.” But only a

few believed with him.

And he (Nuh)

said, “Embark in it, in

the name of Allah is

the waveslike mountains,and Nuh called out(to) his son,and he was[in]apart,

“O my son!Embarkwith usand (do) notbewiththe disbelievers.”42

He said,“I will betake myselftoa mountain,(that) will save mefromthe water.”

He said,“(There is) noprotectortodayfromthe Command of Allahexcept,

And it restedonthe Judi.And it was said,“Awaywith the peoplethe wrongdoers.”

44And Nuh called(to) his Lordand said,“O my Lord!Indeed,my son(is) of

my family,and indeed,Your promise(is) true,and You(are) the Most Just

(of) the judges.”45He said,“O Nuh!Indeed, he(is) notofyour family;

Surah 11: Hud (v. 42-47) Part - 12

Merciful.”

42. And it sailed with

them on the waves like

mountains, and Nuh

called out to his son who

was apart (from them),

“O my son! Embark with

us and do not be with the

disbelievers.”

43. He (the son) said, “I

will betake myself to

some mountain that will

save me from the water.”

He (Nuh) said, “There is

no protector today from

mand, except

on whom He has mercy.”

And the waves came

between them, so he was

among the drowned.

44. And it was said, “O

earth! Swallow your

water, and O sky!

Withhold.” And the water

subsided, and the

Command was fulfilled.

And it (the ship) rested

on (Mount) Judi.

And it was said, “Away

with the wrongdoing

people.”

45. And Nuh called to his

Lord and said, “O my

Lord! Indeed, my son is

of my family, and indeed,

Your promise is true,

and You are the Most

Just of the judges.”

46. He said, “O Nuh!

Indeed, he is not of your

family; indeed, his deed

is not righteous, so do

not ask Me about what

you have no knowledge.

Indeed, I admonish you

lest you be among the

ignorant.”

It was said, “O Nuh!

This is of the news of

So be patient, indeed, the

And to Aad ( sent)

57And whencameOur command,We savedHudand those who

54. We say nothing, but

that, some of our gods

have seized you with

I call Allah to witness,

and you bear witness

that I am innocent of

what you associate,

55. Other than Him. So

plot against me all

together, then do not

give me respite.

56. Indeed, I put my

trust in Allah my Lord

no moving creature but

that He has grasp of its

57. So if you turn

Him at all. Indeed, my

58. And when Our

command came, We

saved Hud and those

who believed with him,

by a Mercy from Us

and We saved them

from a severe

punishment.

59. And that was Aad,

who rejected the Signs

of their Lord and

disobeyed His

followed the command

But they hamstrungher. So he said, “Enjoyyourselves in yourhomes for three days.That is a promise not tobe belied.”

So whencommand came,saved Salih and thosewho believed with him,by a Mercy from , and(saved them) from thedisgrace of that Day.Indeed, your Lord, isAll-Strong,All-Mighty.

And the thunderousblast seized those whowronged, then theybecame fallen prone(dead) in their homes.

As if they hadnot prospered therein.No doubt, Thamuddisbelieved in theirLord, so away withThamud.

74. When the fright

had left Ibrahim and

the glad tidings had

to argue with Us

concerning the people

of Lut.

75. Indeed, Ibrahim

was certainly

forbearing, imploring

76. O Ibrahim! Turn

away from this

(argument). Indeed, the

Command of your Lord

has come and indeed,

there will come for

them a punishment

which cannot be

repelled.

77. And when Our

messengers came to

Lut, he was distressed

for them, and felt

straitened for them and

said, “This is a

distressful day.”

78. And his people

came rushing to him,

sent Musa with

Signs and a clear

authority,

To Firaun and his

chiefs, but they followed

the command of Firaun,

and the command of

Firaun was not right.

He (Firaun) will

precede his people on the

Day of Resurrection and

will lead them into the

Fire.And wretched is the

place to which they are

led.

And they were

followed by a curse in

this (life) and on the

Day of Resurrection.

Wretched is the gift

which will be given.

That is from the news

of the cities, which

relate to you; of them,

some are standing and

some have been mown.

And did not

wrong them, but they

wronged themselves. So

their gods whom they

invoked other than Allah

did not avail them at all

when the command of

your Lord came. And

they did not increase

them in other than ruin.

And thus is the

seizure of your Lord

when seizes the

cities while they are

committing wrong.

Indeed, seizure is

painful and severe.

Indeed, in that is a

Sign for those who fear

the punishment of the

Hereafter. That is a Day

on which mankind will

be gathered,

the mankind,and that(is) a Daywitnessed.103And notWe delay it

Indeed,your Lord(is) All-Accomplisherof whatHe intends.107And as for

those whowere gladthen (they will be) inParadise,(will be) abidingtherein

their sharewithoutbeing diminished.109And verilyWe gaveMusa

fromyour Lord,surely would have been judgedbetween them.And indeed, they

and that is a Day that

will be witnessed.

104. And We do not

delay it except for a

limited term.

105. The Day (when) it

comes no soul will

speak except by His

leave. Some among

them will be the

wretched and some

glad.

106. As for those who

were wretched, they

will be in the Fire. For

them therein is sighing

and wailing.

107. They will abide

therein as long as the

heavens and the earth

remain, except what

your Lord wills.

Indeed, your Lord is

All-Accomplisher of

what He intends.

108. And as for those

who were glad, they

will be in Paradise,

they will abide therein

as long as the heavens

and the earth remain,

except what your Lord

wills - a bestowal

uninterrupted.

109. So do not be in

doubt, as to what these

(polytheists) worship.

They worship not

except as their

forefathers worshipped

before. And indeed,

We will pay them their

share undiminished.

110. And verily We gave

Musa the Book, but

differences arose

therein. And had it not

been for a Word that

had preceded from your

Lord, it would have

been judged between

them. And indeed, they

320

are in suspicious doubt

concerning it.

111 . And indeed, to

each of them your Lord

will pay in full their

deeds. Indeed, He is

All-Aware of what they

do.

112. So stand firm as

you are commanded

and those who turn in

repentance with you,

and do not transgress.

Indeed, He is All-Seer

of what you do.

113. And do not

incline to those who do

wrong, lest you be

touched by the Fire,

and you do not have

besides Allah any

protectors; then you

will not be helped.

114. And establish the

prayer at the two ends

of the day and at the

approach of the night.

Indeed, the good deeds

remove the evil deeds.

That is a reminder for

those who remember.

115. And be patient, for

indeed, Allah does not

let go waste the reward

of the good-doers.

116. So why were

there not among the

generations before

those possessing a

remnant (of good

sense) forbidding

corruption on the earth

except a few of those

We saved among them?

But those who did

wrong pursued what

luxury they were given

therein, and they were

criminals.

surely (are) indoubtconcerning itsuspicious.110And indeed,

would not have

destroyed the cities
