| ||
| [YA]: The Day that He will call on them, He will say: "Where are my 'partners'? whom ye imagined (to be such)?" [RK]:The day will come when He asks them, "Where are the idols you had fabricated to rank with Me?" | ||||
| 1252 | [28:75] Line:3327 |
| ||
| [YA]: And from each people shall We draw a witness, and We shall say: "Produce your Proof": then shall they know that the Truth is in Allah (alone), and the (lies) which they invented will leave them in lurch. [RK]:We will select from every community a witness, then say, "Present your proof." They will realize then that all truth belongs with GOD, while the idols they had fabricated will abandon them. | ||||
| 1253 | [28:76] Line:3328 |
| ||
| [YA]: Qarun was doubtless, of the people of Moses; but he acted insolently towards them: such were the treasures We had bestowed on him that their very keys would have been a burden to a body of strong men, behold, his people said to him: "Exult not, for Allah loveth not those who exult (in riches). [RK]:Qaaroon (the slave driver) was one of Moses' people who betrayed them and oppressed them. We gave him so many treasures that the keys thereof were almost too heavy for the strongest hand. His people said to him, "Do not be so arrogant; GOD does not love those who are arrogant. | ||||
| 1254 | [28:78] Line:3330 |
| ||
| [YA]: He said: "This has been given to me because of a certain knowledge which I have." Did he not know that Allah had destroyed, before him, (whole) generations,- which were superior to him in strength and greater in the amount (of riches) they had collected? but the wicked are not called (immediately) to account for their sins. [RK]:He said, "I attained all this because of my own cleverness." Did he not realize that GOD had annihilated before him generations that were much stronger than he, and greater in number? The (annihilated) transgressors were not asked about their crimes. | ||||
| 1255 | [28:79] Line:3331 |
| ||
| [YA]: So he went forth among his people in the (pride of his wordly) glitter. Said those whose aim is the Life of this World: "Oh! that we had the like of what Qarun has got! for he is truly a lord of mighty good fortune!" [RK]:One day, he came out to his people in full splendor. Those who preferred this worldly life said, "Oh, we wish that we possessed what Qaaroon has attained. Indeed, he is very fortunate." | ||||
| 1256 | [28:80] Line:3332 |
| ||
| [YA]: But those who had been granted (true) knowledge said: "Alas for you! The reward of Allah (in the Hereafter) is best for those who believe and work righteousness: but this none shall attain, save those who steadfastly persevere (in good)." [RK]:As for those who were blessed with knowledge, they said, "Woe to you, GOD's recompense is far better for those who believe and lead a righteous life." None attains this except the steadfast. | ||||
| 1257 | [28:82] Line:3334 |
| ||
| [YA]: And those who had envied his position the day before began to say on the morrow: "Ah! it is indeed Allah Who enlarges the provision or restricts it, to any of His servants He pleases! had it not been that Allah was gracious to us, He could have caused the earth to swallow us up! Ah! those who reject Allah will assuredly never prosper." [RK]:Those who were envious of him the day before said, "Now we realize that GOD is the One who provides for whomever He chooses from among His servants, and withholds. If it were not for GOD's grace towards us, He could have caused the earth to swallow us too. We now realize that the disbelievers never succeed." | ||||
| 1258 | [28:85] Line:3337 |
| ||
| [YA]: Verily He Who ordained the Qur'an for thee, will bring thee back to the Place of Return. Say: "My Lord knows best who it is that brings true guidance, and who is in manifest error." [RK]:Surely, the One who decreed the Quran for you will summon you to a predetermined appointment. Say, "My Lord is fully aware of those who uphold the guidance, and those who have gone astray." | ||||
| 1259 | [29:2] Line:3342 |
| ||
| [YA]: Do men think that they will be left alone on saying, "We believe", and that they will not be tested? [RK]:Do the people think that they will be left to say, "We believe," without being put to the test? | ||||
| 1260 | [29:10] Line:3350 |
| ||
| [YA]: Then there are among men such as say, "We believe in Allah"; but when they suffer affliction in (the cause of) Allah, they treat men's oppression as if it were the Wrath of Allah! And if help comes (to thee) from thy Lord, they are sure to say, "We have (always) been with you!" Does not Allah know best all that is in the hearts of all creation? [RK]:Among the people there are those who say, "We believe in GOD," but as soon as they suffer any hardship because of GOD, they equate the people's persecution with GOD's retribution. But if blessings from your Lord come your way, they say, "We were with you." Is GOD not fully aware of the people's innermost thoughts? | ||||
| 1261 | [29:10] Line:3350 |

And if help comes (to thee) from thy Lord, they are sure to say, "We have (always) been with you!" Does not Allah know best all that is in the hearts of all creation? [RK]:Among the people there are those who say, "We believe in GOD," but as soon as they suffer any hardship because of GOD, they equate the people's persecution with GOD's retribution. But if blessings from your Lord come your way, they say, "We were with you." Is GOD not fully aware of the people's innermost thoughts? | ||||
| 1262 | [29:12] Line:3352 |
| ||
| [YA]: And the Unbelievers say to those who believe: "Follow our path, and we will bear (the consequences) of your faults." Never in the least will they bear their faults: in fact they are liars! [RK]:Those who disbelieved said to those who believed, "If you follow our way, we will be responsible for your sins." Not true; they cannot bear any of their sins. They are liars. | ||||
| 1263 | [29:16] Line:3356 |
| ||
| [YA]: And (We also saved) Abraham: behold, he said to his people, "Serve Allah and fear Him: that will be best for you- If ye understand! [RK]:Abraham said to his people, "You shall worship GOD, and reverence Him. This is better for you, if you only knew. | ||||
| 1264 | [29:20] Line:3360 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "Travel through the earth and see how Allah did originate creation; so will Allah produce a later creation: for Allah has power over all things. [RK]:Say, "Roam the earth and find out the origin of life." For GOD will thus initiate the creation in the Hereafter. GOD is Omnipotent. | ||||
| 1265 | [29:24] Line:3364 |
| ||
| [YA]: So naught was the answer of (Abraham's) people except that they said: "Slay him or burn him." But Allah did save him from the Fire. Verily in this are Signs for people who believe. [RK]:The only response from his people was their saying, "Kill him, or burn him." But GOD saved him from the fire. This should provide lessons for people who believe. | ||||
| 1266 | [29:25] Line:3365 |
| ||
| [YA]: And he said: "For you, ye have taken (for worship) idols besides Allah, out of mutual love and regard between yourselves in this life; but on the Day of Judgment ye shall disown each other and curse each other: and your abode will be the Fire, and ye shall have none to help." [RK]:He said, "You worship beside GOD powerless idols due to peer pressure, just to preserve some friendship among you in this worldly life. But then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will disown one another, and curse one another. Your destiny is Hell, wherein you cannot help one another." | ||||
| 1267 | [29:26] Line:3366 |
| ||
| [YA]: But Lut had faith in Him: He said: "I will leave home for the sake of my Lord: for He is Exalted in Might, and Wise." [RK]:Lot believed with him and said, "I am emigrating to my Lord. He is the Almighty, the Most Wise." | ||||
| 1268 | [29:28] Line:3368 |
| ||
| [YA]: And (remember) Lut: behold, he said to his people: "Ye do commit lewdness, such as no people in Creation (ever) committed before you. [RK]:Lot said to his people, "You commit such an abomination, no one in the world has ever done it before you. | ||||
| 1269 | [29:29] Line:3369 |
| ||
| [YA]: "Do ye indeed approach men, and cut off the highway?- and practise wickedness (even) in your councils?" But his people gave no answer but this: they said: "Bring us the Wrath of Allah if thou tellest the truth." [RK]:"You practice sex with the men, you commit highway robbery, and you allow all kinds of vice in your society." The only response from his people was to say, "Bring to us GOD's retribution, if you are truthful." | ||||
| 1270 | [29:30] Line:3370 |
| ||
| [YA]: He said: "O my Lord! help Thou me against people who do mischief!" [RK]:He said, "My Lord, grant me victory over these wicked people." | ||||
| 1271 | [29:31] Line:3371 |
| ||
| [YA]: When Our Messengers came to Abraham with the good news, they said: "We are indeed going to destroy the people of this township: for truly they are (addicted to) crime." [RK]:When our messengers went to Abraham with good news (about Isaac's birth), they also said, "We are on our way to annihilate the people of that town (Sodom), for its people have been wicked." | ||||
| 1272 | [29:32] Line:3372 |
| ||
| [YA]: He said: "But there is Lut there." They said: "Well do we know who is there : we will certainly save him and his following,- except his wife: she is of those who lag behind!" [RK]:He said, "But Lot is living there." They said, "We are fully aware of everyone who lives in it. We will of course save him and his family, except his wife; she is doomed." | ||||
| 1273 | [29:32] Line:3372 |
| ||
| [YA]: He said: "But there is Lut there." They said: "Well do we know who is there : we will certainly save him and his following,- except his wife: she is of those who lag behind!" [RK]:He said, "But Lot is living there." They said, "We are fully aware of everyone who lives in it. We will of course save him and his family, except his wife; she is doomed." | ||||
| 1274 | [29:33] Line:3373 |
| ||
| [YA]: And when Our Messengers came to Lut, he was grieved on their account, and felt himself powerless (to protect) them: but they said: "Fear thou not, nor grieve: we are (here) to save thee and thy following, except thy wife: she is of those who lag behind. [RK]:When our messengers arrived at Lot's place, they were mistreated, and he was embarrassed by their presence. But they said, "Have no fear, and do not worry. We will save you and your family, except your wife; she is doomed. | ||||
| 1275 | [29:36] Line:3376 |
| ||
| [YA]: To the Madyan (people) (We sent) their brother Shu'aib. Then he said: "O my people! serve Allah, and fear the Last Day: nor commit evil on the earth, with intent to do mischief." [RK]:To Midyan we sent their brother Shu`aib. He said, "O my people, you shall worship GOD and seek the Last Day, and do not roam the earth corruptingly." | ||||
| 1276 | [29:46] Line:3386 |
| ||
| [YA]: And dispute ye not with the People of the Book, except with means better (than mere disputation), unless it be with those of them who inflict wrong (and injury): but say, "We believe in the revelation which has come down to us and in that which came down to you; Our Allah and your Allah is one; and it is to Him we bow (in Islam)." [RK]:Do not argue with the people of the scripture (Jews, Christians, and Muslims) except in the nicest possible manner - unless they transgress - and say, "We believe in what was revealed to us and in what was revealed to you, and our god and your god is one and the same; to Him we are submitters." | ||||
| 1277 | [29:50] Line:3390 |
| ||
| [YA]: Ye they say: "Why are not Signs sent down to him from his Lord?" Say: "The signs are indeed with Allah: and I am indeed a clear Warner." [RK]:They said, "If only miracles could come down to him from his Lord!" Say, "All miracles come only from GOD; I am no more than a manifest warner." | ||||
| 1278 | [29:50] Line:3390 |
| ||
| [YA]: Ye they say: "Why are not Signs sent down to him from his Lord?" Say: "The signs are indeed with Allah: and I am indeed a clear Warner." [RK]:They said, "If only miracles could come down to him from his Lord!" Say, "All miracles come only from GOD; I am no more than a manifest warner." | ||||
| 1279 | [29:52] Line:3392 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "Enough is Allah for a witness between me and you: He knows what is in the heavens and on earth. And it is those who believe in vanities and reject Allah, that will perish (in the end). [RK]:Say, "GOD suffices as a witness between me and you. He knows everything in the heavens and the earth. Surely, those who believe in falsehood and disbelieve in GOD are the real losers." | ||||
| 1280 | [29:55] Line:3395 |
| ||
| [YA]: On the Day that the Punishment shall cover them from above them and from below them, and (a Voice) shall say: "Taste ye (the fruits) of your deeds!" [RK]:The day will come when the retribution overwhelms them, from above them and from beneath their feet; He will say, "Taste the consequences of your works." | ||||
| 1281 | [29:61] Line:3401 |
| ||
| [YA]: If indeed thou ask them who has created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law), they will certainly reply, "Allah". How are they then deluded away (from the truth)? [RK]:If you ask them, "Who created the heavens and the earth, and put the sun and the moon in your service," they will say, "GOD." Why then did they deviate? | ||||
| 1282 | [29:63] Line:3403 |
| ||
| [YA]: And if indeed thou ask them who it is that sends down rain from the sky, and gives life therewith to the earth after its death, they will certainly reply, "Allah!" Say, "Praise be to Allah!" But most of them understand not. [RK]:If you ask them, "Who sends down from the sky water, to revive dead land," they will say, "GOD." Say, "Praise GOD." Most of them do not understand. | ||||
| 1283 | [29:63] Line:3403 |

| 1284 | [30:42] Line:3451 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "Travel through the earth and see what was the end of those before (you): Most of them worshipped others besides Allah." [RK]:Say, "Roam the earth and note the consequences for those before you." Most of them were idol worshipers. | ||||
| 1285 | [30:56] Line:3465 |
| ||
| [YA]: But those endued with knowledge and faith will say: "Indeed ye did tarry, within Allah's Decree, to the Day of Resurrection, and this is the Day of Resurrection: but ye - ye were not aware!" [RK]:Those who are blessed with knowledge and faith will say, "You have lasted, according to GOD's decree, until the Day of Resurrection. Now, this is the Day of Resurrection, but you failed to recognize it." | ||||
| 1286 | [30:58] Line:3467 |
| ||
| [YA]: verily We have propounded for men, in this Qur'an every kind of Parable: But if thou bring to them any Sign, the Unbelievers are sure to say, "Ye do nothing but talk vanities." [RK]:Thus, we have cited for the people in this Quran all kinds of examples. Yet, no matter what kind of proof you present to the disbelievers, they say, "You are falsifiers." | ||||
| 1287 | [31:13] Line:3482 |
| ||
| [YA]: Behold, Luqman said to his son by way of instruction: "O my son! join not in worship (others) with Allah: for false worship is indeed the highest wrong-doing." [RK]:Recall that Luqmaan said to his son, as he enlightened him, "O my son, do not set up any idols beside GOD; idolatry is a gross injustice." | ||||
| 1288 | [31:21] Line:3490 |
| ||
| [YA]: When they are told to follow the (Revelation) that Allah has sent down, they say: "Nay, we shall follow the ways that we found our fathers (following). "What! even if it is Satan beckoning them to the Penalty of the (Blazing) Fire? [RK]:When they are told, "Follow these revelations of GOD," they say, "No, we follow only what we found our parents doing." What if the devil is leading them to the agony of Hell? | ||||
| 1289 | [31:21] Line:3490 |

| 1290 | [31:25] Line:3494 |
| ||
| [YA]: If thou ask them, who it is that created the heavens and the earth. They will certainly say, "Allah". Say: "Praise be to Allah!" But most of them understand not. [RK]:If you ask them, "Who created the heavens and the earth," they will say, "GOD." Say, "Praise be to GOD." Yet, most of them do not know. | ||||
| 1291 | [31:25] Line:3494 |

| 1292 | [32:3] Line:3506 |
| ||
| [YA]: Or do they say, "He has forged it"? Nay, it is the Truth from thy Lord, that thou mayest admonish a people to whom no warner has come before thee: in order that they may receive guidance. [RK]:They said, "He fabricated it." Indeed, this is the truth from your Lord, to warn people who never received a warner before you, that they may be guided. | ||||
| 1293 | [32:10] Line:3513 |
| ||
| [YA]: And they say: "What! when we lie, hidden and lost, in the earth, shall we indeed be in a Creation renewed? Nay, they deny the Meeting with their Lord. [RK]:They wonder, "After we vanish into the earth, do we get created anew?" Thus, as regards meeting their Lord, they are disbelievers. | ||||
| 1294 | [32:11] Line:3514 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "The Angel of Death, put in charge of you, will (duly) take your souls: then shall ye be brought back to your Lord." [RK]:Say, "You will be put to death by the angel in whose charge you are placed, then to your Lord you will be returned." | ||||
| 1295 | [32:13] Line:3516 |
| ||
| [YA]: If We had so willed, We could certainly have brought every soul its true guidance: but the Word from Me will come true, "I will fill Hell with Jinns and men all together." [RK]:Had we willed, we could have given every soul its guidance, but it is already predetermined that I will fill Hell with jinns and humans, all together. | ||||
| 1296 | [32:20] Line:3523 |
| ||
| [YA]: As to those who are rebellious and wicked, their abode will be the Fire: every time they wish to get away therefrom, they will be forced thereinto, and it will be said to them: "Taste ye the Penalty of the Fire, the which ye were wont to reject as false." [RK]:As for the wicked, their destiny is Hell. Every time they try to leave it, they will be forced back. They will be told, "Taste the agony of Hell which you used to disbelieve in." | ||||
| 1297 | [32:28] Line:3531 |
| ||
| [YA]: They say: "When will this decision be, if ye are telling the truth?" [RK]:They challenge: "Where is that victory, if you are truthful?" | ||||
| 1298 | [32:29] Line:3532 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "On the Day of Decision, no profit will it be to Unbelievers if they (then) believe! nor will they be granted a respite." [RK]:Say, "The day such a victory comes, believing will not benefit those who did not believe before that, nor will they be given another chance." | ||||
| 1299 | [33:4] Line:3537 |
| ||
| [YA]: Allah has not made for any man two hearts in his (one) body: nor has He made your wives whom ye divorce by Zihar your mothers: nor has He made your adopted sons your sons. Such is (only) your (manner of) speech by your mouths. But Allah tells (you) the Truth, and He shows the (right) Way. [RK]:GOD did not give any man two hearts in his chest. Nor did He turn your wives whom you estrange (according to your custom) into your mothers. Nor did He turn your adopted children into genetic offspring. All these are mere utterances that you have invented. GOD speaks the truth, and He guides in the (right) path. | ||||
