On the Day hypocrites, men and women, say to believers, Wait for us to take your light, they are told, Go back and seek your own light. A wall with a gate is set between them, inside is mercy, outside is torment

Hypocrites call to believers, Were we not with you? They reply, Yes, but you ruined yourselves, wavered, doubted, and were deceived by false hopes until God’s decree came. The deceiver misled you about God

Today, no ransom is accepted from you or disbelievers. Your abode is the Fire, your fitting refuge, a wretched destination

۞ اَلَمْ يَأْنِ لِلَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْٓا اَنْ تَخْشَعَ قُلُوْبُهُمْ لِذِكْرِ اللّٰهِ وَمَا نَزَلَ مِنَ الْحَقِّۙ وَلَا يَكُوْنُوْا كَالَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ مِنْ قَبْلُ فَطَالَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْاَمَدُ فَقَسَتْ قُلُوْبُهُمْۗ وَكَثِيْرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فٰسِقُوْنَ

Is it not time for believers to humble their hearts to God’s remembrance and the revealed truth, unlike those given scripture before, whose hearts hardened over time, many becoming rebellious?

اِعْلَمُوْٓا اَنَّ اللّٰهَ يُحْيِ الْاَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَاۗ قَدْ بَيَّنَّا لَكُمُ الْاٰيٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُوْنَ

i‘lamū annallāha yuḥyil-arḍa ba‘da mautihā, qad bayyannā lakumul-āyāti la‘allakum ta‘qilūn(a).

Know that God revives the earth after its death. We have made Our signs clear to you, so you may understand

اِنَّ الْمُصَّدِّقِيْنَ وَالْمُصَّدِّقٰتِ وَاَقْرَضُوا اللّٰهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا يُّضٰعَفُ لَهُمْ وَلَهُمْ اَجْرٌ كَرِيْمٌ

Those who believe in God and His messengers are the truthful and witnesses before their Lord. They will have their reward and light. But disbelievers who deny Our signs are dwellers of the Fire

Know that worldly life is but play, amusement, adornment, boasting among you, and rivalry in wealth and children, like rain whose plants amaze farmers, then wither, turn yellow, and crumble. In the Hereafter is severe punishment, God’s forgiveness, and His pleasure. Worldly life is only fleeting enjoyment

سَابِقُوْٓا اِلٰى مَغْفِرَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا كَعَرْضِ السَّمَاۤءِ وَالْاَرْضِۙ اُعِدَّتْ لِلَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَرُسُلِهٖۗ ذٰلِكَ فَضْلُ اللّٰهِ يُؤْتِيْهِ مَنْ يَّشَاۤءُ ۗوَاللّٰهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِيْمِ

Race toward forgiveness from your Lord and a paradise as vast as the heavens and earth, prepared for those who believe in God and His messengers. That is God’s grace, given to whom He wills. God possesses immense grace

mā aṣāba mim muṣībatin fil-arḍi wa lā fī anfusikum illā fī kitābim min qabli an nabra'ahā, inna żālika ‘alallāhi yasīr(un).

No calamity strikes the earth or yourselves but is recorded in a Book before We bring it forth. That is easy for God

لِّكَيْلَا تَأْسَوْا عَلٰى مَا فَاتَكُمْ وَلَا تَفْرَحُوْا بِمَآ اٰتٰىكُمْ ۗوَاللّٰهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ مُخْتَالٍ فَخُوْرٍۙ

those who are stingy and urge others to stinginess. Whoever turns away, God is the Self-Sufficient, Praiseworthy

لَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا بِالْبَيِّنٰتِ وَاَنْزَلْنَا مَعَهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ وَالْمِيْزَانَ لِيَقُوْمَ النَّاسُ بِالْقِسْطِۚ وَاَنْزَلْنَا الْحَدِيْدَ فِيْهِ بَأْسٌ شَدِيْدٌ وَّمَنَافِعُ لِلنَّاسِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ اللّٰهُ مَنْ يَّنْصُرُهٗ وَرُسُلَهٗ بِالْغَيْبِۗ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ قَوِيٌّ عَزِيْزٌ ࣖ

We sent Our messengers with clear proofs, revealed scriptures and the balance for justice among people, and created iron, with great strength and benefits for humanity, so God knows who aids His cause and His messengers unseen. God is Strong, Mighty

We sent Noah and Abraham, granting prophethood and scripture to their descendants. Some were guided, but many were rebellious

ثُمَّ قَفَّيْنَا عَلٰٓى اٰثَارِهِمْ بِرُسُلِنَا وَقَفَّيْنَا بِعِيْسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ وَاٰتَيْنٰهُ الْاِنْجِيْلَ ەۙ وَجَعَلْنَا فِيْ قُلُوْبِ الَّذِيْنَ اتَّبَعُوْهُ رَأْفَةً وَّرَحْمَةً ۗوَرَهْبَانِيَّةَ ِۨابْتَدَعُوْهَا مَا كَتَبْنٰهَا عَلَيْهِمْ اِلَّا ابْتِغَاۤءَ رِضْوَانِ اللّٰهِ فَمَا رَعَوْهَا حَقَّ رِعَايَتِهَا ۚفَاٰتَيْنَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مِنْهُمْ اَجْرَهُمْ ۚ وَكَثِيْرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فٰسِقُوْنَ

We sent messengers after them, including Jesus, son of Mary, to whom We gave the Gospel. We placed compassion and mercy in the hearts of his followers. They invented monasticism, which We did not prescribe, seeking God’s pleasure, but did not observe it rightly. We rewarded the believers among them, but many were rebellious

يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَاٰمِنُوْا بِرَسُوْلِهٖ يُؤْتِكُمْ كِفْلَيْنِ مِنْ رَّحْمَتِهٖ وَيَجْعَلْ لَّكُمْ نُوْرًا تَمْشُوْنَ بِهٖ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْۗ وَاللّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌۙ

O believers, fear God and believe in His Messenger. He will grant you double mercy, provide a light to walk by, and forgive you. God is Forgiving, Merciful

So the People of the Book know they have no claim to God’s grace unless they believe in Muhammad. Grace is in God’s hand, given to whom He wills. God possesses immense grace
