| ||
| [YA]: "Does he promise that when ye die and become dust and bones, ye shall be brought forth (again)? [RK]:"Does he promise you that, after you die and turn into dust and bones, you will come out again? | ||||
| 103 | [23:72] Line:2745 |
| ||
| [YA]: Or is it that thou askest them for some recompense? But the recompense of thy Lord is best: He is the Best of those who give sustenance. [RK]:Are you asking them for a wage? Your Lord's wage is far better. He is the best Provider. | ||||

| ||
| [YA]: Or (the Unbelievers' state) is like the depths of darkness in a vast deep ocean, overwhelmed with billow topped by billow, topped by (dark) clouds: depths of darkness, one above another: if a man stretches out his hands, he can hardly see it! for any to whom Allah giveth not light, there is no light! [RK]:Another allegory is that of being in total darkness in the midst of a violent ocean, with waves upon waves, in addition to thick fog. Darkness upon darkness - if he looked at his own hand, he could barely see it. Whomever GOD deprives of light, will have no light. | ||||

And He sends down from the sky mountain masses (of clouds) wherein is hail: He strikes therewith whom He pleases and He turns it away from whom He pleases, the vivid flash of His lightning well-nigh blinds the sight. [RK]:Do you not realize that GOD drives the clouds, then gathers them together, then piles them on each other, then you see the rain coming out of them?

| ||
| [YA]: "His plan is to get you out of your land by his sorcery; then what is it ye counsel?" [RK]:"He wants to take you out of your land, with his magic. What do you suggest?" | ||||

[RK]:(To the hoopoe, he said,) "Go back to them (and let them know that) we will come to them with forces they cannot imagine. We will evict them, humiliated and debased." | ||||
| 115 | [27:56] Line:3215 |
| ||
| [YA]: But his people gave no other answer but this: they said, "Drive out the followers of Lut from your city: these are indeed men who want to be clean and pure!" [RK]:The only response from his people was their saying, "Banish Lot's family from your town; they are people who wish to be pure." | ||||

| 117 | [27:82] Line:3241 |
| ||
| [YA]: And when the Word is fulfilled against them (the unjust), we shall produce from the earth a beast to (face) them: He will speak to them, for that mankind did not believe with assurance in Our Signs. [RK]:At the right time, we will produce for them a creature, made of earthly materials, declaring that the people are not certain about our revelations. | ||||

| [YA]: And there came a man, running, from the furthest end of the City. He said: "O Moses! the Chiefs are taking counsel together about thee, to slay thee: so get thee away, for I do give thee sincere advice." [RK]:A man came running from the other side of the city, saying, "O Moses, the people are plotting to kill you. You better leave immediately. I am giving you good advice." | ||||
| 119 | [28:21] Line:3273 |
| ||
| [YA]: He therefore got away therefrom, looking about, in a state of fear. He prayed "O my Lord! save me from people given to wrong-doing." [RK]:He fled the city, afraid and watchful. He said, "My Lord, save me from the oppressive people." | ||||

Those are the two credentials from thy Lord to Pharaoh and his Chiefs: for truly they are a people rebellious and wicked."

| [YA]: It is Allah Who sends the Winds, and they raise the Clouds: then does He spread them in the sky as He wills, and break them into fragments, until thou seest rain-drops issue from the midst thereof: then when He has made them reach such of his servants as He wills behold, they do rejoice!- [RK]:GOD is the One who sends the winds, to stir up clouds, to be spread throughout the sky in accordance with His will. He then piles the clouds up, then you see the rain coming down therefrom. When it falls on whomever He chooses from among His servants, they rejoice. | ||||
| 127 | [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."

| ||
| [YA]: Nor are the two bodies of flowing water alike,- the one palatable, sweet, and pleasant to drink, and the other, salt and bitter. Yet from each (kind of water) do ye eat flesh fresh and tender, and ye extract ornaments to wear; and thou seest the ships therein that plough the waves, that ye may seek (thus) of the Bounty of Allah that ye may be grateful. [RK]:The two seas are not the same; one is fresh and delicious, while the other is salty and undrinkable. From each of them you eat tender meat, and extract jewelry to wear. And you see the ships sailing through them, seeking His provisions, that you may be appreciative. | ||||
| 132 | [35:27] Line:3687 |

So taste ye (the fruits of your deeds): for the wrong-doers there is no helper." [RK]:They will scream therein, "Our Lord, if you get us out of here, we will work righteousness, instead of the works we used to do." Did we not give you a life-long chance, with continuous reminders for those who would take heed? Did you not receive the warner? Therefore, taste (the consequences). The transgressors will have no one to help them. | ||||
| 134 | [36:33] Line:3738 |
| ||
| [YA]: A Sign for them is the earth that is dead: We do give it life, and produce grain therefrom, of which ye do eat. [RK]:One sign for them is the dead land: we revive it and produce from it grains for their food. | ||||

| [YA]: To Him is referred the Knowledge of the Hour (of Judgment: He knows all): No date-fruit comes out of its sheath, nor does a female conceive (within her womb) nor bring forth the Day that (Allah) will propound to them the (question), "Where are the partners (ye attributed to Me?" They will say, "We do assure thee not one of us can bear witness!" [RK]:With Him is the knowledge about the Hour (end of the world). No fruits emerge from their sheaths, nor does any female conceive or give birth, without His knowledge. The day will come when He asks them: "Where are those idols that you set up beside Me?" They will say, "We proclaim to You that none of us bears witness to that." | ||||
| 141 | [43:11] Line:4336 |

| 143 | [46:17] Line:4527 |
| ||
| [YA]: But (there is one) who says to his parents, "Fie on you! Do ye hold out the promise to me that I shall be raised up, even though generations have passed before me (without rising again)?" And they two seek Allah's aid, (and rebuke the son): "Woe to thee! Have faith! for the promise of Allah is true." But he says, "This is nothing but tales of the ancients!" [RK]:Then there is the one who says to his parents, "Woe to you; are you telling me that (after death) I will come back to life? How come those who died before us never come back?" The parents would cry for GOD's help and say, "Woe to you; please believe! GOD's promise is the truth." He would say, "Tales from the past!" | ||||
| 144 | [47:13] Line:4558 |

| ||
| [YA]: And among them are men who listen to thee, but in the end, when they go out from thee, they say to those who have received Knowledge, "What is it he said just then?" Such are men whose hearts Allah has sealed, and who follow their own lusts. [RK]:Some of them listen to you, then as soon as they leave they ask those who were enlightened, "What did he just say?" GOD thus seals their hearts and, consequently, they follow only their opinions. | ||||
| 146 | [47:29] Line:4574 |
| ||
| [YA]: Or do those in whose hearts is a disease, think that Allah will not bring to light all their rancour? [RK]:Did those who harbor doubts in their hearts think that GOD will not bring out their evil thoughts? | ||||
| 147 | [47:37] Line:4582 |
| ||
| [YA]: If He were to ask you for all of them, and press you, ye would covetously withhold, and He would bring out all your ill-feeling. [RK]:If He asked you for money, to the extent of creating a hardship for you, you might have become stingy, and your hidden evil might be exposed. | ||||
| 148 | [48:29] Line:4612 |
| ||
| [YA]: Muhammad is the messenger of Allah; and those who are with him are strong against Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other. Thou wilt see them bow and prostrate themselves (in prayer), seeking Grace from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure. On their faces are their marks, (being) the traces of their prostration. This is their similitude in the Taurat; and their similitude in the Gospel is: like a seed which sends forth its blade, then makes it strong; it then becomes thick, and it stands on its own stem, (filling) the sowers with wonder and delight. As a result, it fills the Unbelievers with rage at them. Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds forgiveness, and a great Reward. [RK]:Muhammad - the messenger of GOD - and those with him are harsh and stern against the disbelievers, but kind and compassionate amongst themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating, as they seek GOD's blessings and approval. Their marks are on their faces, because of prostrating. This is the same example as in the Torah. Their example in the Gospel is like plants that grow taller and stronger, and please the farmers. He thus enrages the disbelievers. GOD promises those among them who believe, and lead a righteous life, forgiveness and a great recompense. | ||||
| 149 | [49:5] Line:4617 |
| ||
| [YA]: If only they had patience until thou couldst come out to them, it would be best for them: but Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. [RK]:Had they been patient until you came out to them, it would have been better for them. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful. | ||||
| 150 | [50:11] Line:4641 |
| ||
| [YA]: As sustenance for (Allah's) Servants;- and We give (new) life therewith to land that is dead: Thus will be the Resurrection. [RK]:Provisions for the people. And we revive with it dead lands; you are similarly resurrected. | ||||
