101 | [10:16] Line:1380 |
| ||
[YA]: Say: "If Allah had so willed, I should not have rehearsed it to you, nor would He have made it known to you. A whole life-time before this have I tarried amongst you: will ye not then understand?" [RK]:Say, "Had GOD willed, I would not have recited it to you, nor would you have known anything about it. I have lived among you a whole life before this (and you have known me as a sane, truthful person). Do you not understand?" | ||||
102 | [10:19] Line:1383 |
| ||
[YA]: Mankind was but one nation, but differed (later). Had it not been for a word that went forth before from thy Lord, their differences would have been settled between them. [RK]:The people used to be one congregation, then they disputed. If it were not for a predetermined word from your Lord, they would have been judged immediately regarding their disputes. | ||||
103 | [10:42] Line:1406 |
| ||
[YA]: Among them are some who (pretend to) listen to thee: But canst thou make the deaf to hear,- even though they are without understanding? [RK]:Some of them listen to you, but can you make the deaf hear, even though they cannot understand? | ||||
104 | [10:43] Line:1407 |
| ||
[YA]: And among them are some who look at thee: but canst thou guide the blind,- even though they will not see? [RK]:Some of them look at you, but can you guide the blind, even though they do not see? | ||||
105 | [10:54] Line:1418 |
| ||
[YA]: Every soul that hath sinned, if it possessed all that is on earth, would fain give it in ransom: They would declare (their) repentance when they see the penalty: but the judgment between them will be with justice, and no wrong will be done unto them. [RK]:If any wicked soul possessed everything on earth, it would readily offer it as ransom. They will be ridden with remorse when they see the retribution. They will be judged equitably, without the least injustice. | ||||
106 | [10:82] Line:1446 |
| ||
[YA]: "And Allah by His words doth prove and establish His truth, however much the sinners may hate it!" [RK]:GOD establishes the truth with His words, despite the criminals. | ||||
107 | [10:97] Line:1461 |
| ||
[YA]: Even if every Sign was brought unto them,- until they see (for themselves) the penalty grievous. [RK]:No matter what kind of proof you show them, (they cannot believe), until they see the painful retribution. | ||||
108 | [10:98] Line:1462 |
| ||
[YA]: Why was there not a single township (among those We warned), which believed,- so its faith should have profited it,- except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the penalty of ignominy in the life of the present, and permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while. [RK]:Any community that believes will surely be rewarded for believing. For example, the people of Jonah: when they believed, we relieved the humiliating retribution they had been suffering in this world, and we made them prosperous. | ||||
109 | [10:99] Line:1463 |
| ||
[YA]: If it had been thy Lord's will, they would all have believed,- all who are on earth! wilt thou then compel mankind, against their will, to believe! [RK]:Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed. Do you want to force the people to become believers? | ||||
110 | [11:12] Line:1485 |
| ||
[YA]: Perchance thou mayest (feel the inclination) to give up a part of what is revealed unto thee, and thy heart feeleth straitened lest they say, "Why is not a treasure sent down unto him, or why does not an angel come down with him?" But thou art there only to warn! It is Allah that arrangeth all affairs! [RK]:You may wish to disregard some of that which is revealed to you, and you may be annoyed by it. Also, they may say, "How come no treasure comes down to him, or an angel?" You are only a warner; GOD controls all things. | ||||
111 | [11:80] Line:1553 |
| ||
[YA]: He said: "Would that I had power to suppress you or that I could betake myself to some powerful support." [RK]:He said, "I wish I were strong enough, or had a powerful ally!" | ||||
112 | [11:91] Line:1564 |
| ||
[YA]: They said: "O Shu'aib! much of what thou sayest we do not understand! In fact among us we see that thou hast no strength! Were it not for thy family, we should certainly have stoned thee! for thou hast among us no great position!" [RK]:They said, "O Shu`aib, we do not comprehend many of the things you are telling us, and we see that you are powerless among us. If it were not for your tribe, we would have stoned you. You have no value for us." | ||||
113 | [11:110] Line:1583 |
| ||
[YA]: We certainly gave the Book to Moses, but differences arose therein: had it not been that a word had gone forth before from thy Lord, the matter would have been decided between them, but they are in suspicious doubt concerning it. [RK]:We have given Moses the scripture, but it was disputed, and if it were not for a predetermined word decreed by your Lord, they would have been judged immediately. They are full of doubt about this, suspicious. | ||||
114 | [11:116] Line:1589 |
| ||
[YA]: Why were there not, among the generations before you, persons possessed of balanced good sense, prohibiting (men) from mischief in the earth - except a few among them whom We saved (from harm)? But the wrong-doers pursued the enjoyment of the good things of life which were given them, and persisted in sin. [RK]:If only some of those among the previous generations possessed enough intelligence to forbid evil! Only a few of them deserved to be saved by us. As for the transgressors, they were preoccupied with their material luxuries; they were guilty. | ||||
115 | [11:118] Line:1591 |
| ||
[YA]: If thy Lord had so willed, He could have made mankind one people: but they will not cease to dispute. [RK]:Had your Lord willed, all the people would have been one congregation (of believers). But they will always dispute (the truth). | ||||
116 | [12:17] Line:1613 |
| ||
[YA]: They said: "O our father! We went racing with one another, and left Joseph with our things; and the wolf devoured him.... But thou wilt never believe us even though we tell the truth." [RK]:They said, "Our father, we went racing with each other, leaving Joseph with our equipment, and the wolf devoured him. You will never believe us, even if we were telling the truth." | ||||
117 | [12:24] Line:1620 |
| ||
[YA]: And (with passion) did she desire him, and he would have desired her, but that he saw the evidence of his Lord: thus (did We order) that We might turn away from him (all) evil and shameful deeds: for he was one of Our servants, sincere and purified. [RK]:She almost succumbed to him, and he almost succumbed to her, if it were not that he saw a proof from his Lord. We thus diverted evil and sin away from him, for he was one of our devoted servants. | ||||
118 | [12:94] Line:1690 |
| ||
[YA]: When the caravan left (Egypt), their father said: "I do indeed scent the presence of Joseph: Nay, think me not a dotard." [RK]:Even before the caravan arrived, their father said, "I can sense the smell of Joseph. Will someone enlighten me?" | ||||
119 | [12:103] Line:1699 |
| ||
[YA]: Yet no faith will the greater part of mankind have, however ardently thou dost desire it. [RK]:Most people, no matter what you do, will not believe. | ||||
120 | [13:7] Line:1714 |
| ||
[YA]: And the Unbelievers say: "Why is not a sign sent down to him from his Lord?" But thou art truly a warner, and to every people a guide. [RK]:Those who disbelieved say, "If only a miracle could come down to him from his Lord (we will then believe)." You are simply a warner - every community receives a guiding teacher. | ||||
121 | [13:18] Line:1725 |
| ||
[YA]: For those who respond to their Lord, are (all) good things. But those who respond not to Him,- Even if they had all that is in the heavens and on earth, and as much more, (in vain) would they offer it for ransom. For them will the reckoning be terrible: their abode will be Hell,- what a bed of misery! [RK]:Those who respond to their Lord deserve the good rewards. As for those who failed to respond to Him, if they possessed everything on earth - even twice as much - they would readily give it up as ransom. They have incurred the worst reckoning, and their final abode is Hell; what a miserable destiny. | ||||
122 | [13:31] Line:1738 |
| ||
[YA]: If there were a Qur'an with which mountains were moved, or the earth were cloven asunder, or the dead were made to speak, (this would be the one!) But, truly, the command is with Allah in all things! Do not the Believers know, that, had Allah (so) willed, He could have guided all mankind (to the right)? But the Unbelievers,- never will disaster cease to seize them for their (ill) deeds, or to settle close to their homes, until the promise of Allah come to pass, for, verily, Allah will not fail in His promise. [RK]:Even if a Quran caused mountains to move, or the earth to tear asunder, or the dead to speak (they will not believe). GOD controls all things. Is it not time for the believers to give up and realize that if GOD willed, He could have guided all the people? The disbelievers will continue to suffer disasters, as a consequence of their own works, or have disasters strike close to them, until GOD's promise is fulfilled. GOD will never change the predetermined destiny. | ||||
123 | [13:31] Line:1738 |
| ||
[YA]: If there were a Qur'an with which mountains were moved, or the earth were cloven asunder, or the dead were made to speak, (this would be the one!) But, truly, the command is with Allah in all things! Do not the Believers know, that, had Allah (so) willed, He could have guided all mankind (to the right)? But the Unbelievers,- never will disaster cease to seize them for their (ill) deeds, or to settle close to their homes, until the promise of Allah come to pass, for, verily, Allah will not fail in His promise. [RK]:Even if a Quran caused mountains to move, or the earth to tear asunder, or the dead to speak (they will not believe). GOD controls all things. Is it not time for the believers to give up and realize that if GOD willed, He could have guided all the people? The disbelievers will continue to suffer disasters, as a consequence of their own works, or have disasters strike close to them, until GOD's promise is fulfilled. GOD will never change the predetermined destiny. | ||||
124 | [14:21] Line:1771 |
| ||
[YA]: They will all be marshalled before Allah together: then will the weak say to those who were arrogant, "For us, we but followed you; can ye then avail us to all against the wrath of Allah?" They will reply, "If we had received the Guidance of Allah, we should have given it to you: to us it makes no difference (now) whether we rage, or bear (these torments) with patience: for ourselves there is no way of escape." [RK]:When they all stand before GOD, the followers will say to the leaders, "We used to follow you. Can you spare us even a little bit of GOD's retribution?" They will say, "Had GOD guided us, we would have guided you. Now it is too late, whether we grieve or resort to patience, there is no exit for us." | ||||
125 | [15:2] Line:1804 |
| ||
[YA]: Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they had bowed (to Allah's will) in Islam. [RK]:Certainly, those who disbelieved will wish they were submitters. | ||||
126 | [15:7] Line:1809 |
| ||
[YA]: "Why bringest thou not angels to us if it be that thou hast the Truth?" [RK]:"Why do you not bring down the angels, if you are truthful?" | ||||
127 | [15:14] Line:1816 |
| ||
[YA]: Even if We opened out to them a gate from heaven, and they were to continue (all day) ascending therein, [RK]:Even if we opened for them a gate into the sky, through which they climb; | ||||
128 | [16:9] Line:1910 |
| ||
[YA]: And unto Allah leads straight the Way, but there are ways that turn aside: if Allah had willed, He could have guided all of you. [RK]:GOD points out the paths, including the wrong ones. If He willed, He could have guided all of you. | ||||
129 | [16:35] Line:1936 |
| ||
[YA]: The worshippers of false gods say: "If Allah had so willed, we should not have worshipped aught but Him - neither we nor our fathers,- nor should we have prescribed prohibitions other than His." So did those who went before them. But what is the mission of messengers but to preach the Clear Message? [RK]:The idol worshipers say, "Had GOD willed, we would not worship any idols besides Him, nor would our parents. Nor would we prohibit anything besides His prohibitions." Those before them have done the same. Can the messengers do anything but deliver the complete message? | ||||
130 | [16:41] Line:1942 |
| ||
[YA]: To those who leave their homes in the cause of Allah, after suffering oppression,- We will assuredly give a goodly home in this world; but truly the reward of the Hereafter will be greater. If they only realised (this)! [RK]:Those who emigrated for the sake of GOD, because they were persecuted, we will surely make it up to them generously in this life, and the recompense of the Hereafter is even greater, if they only knew. | ||||
131 | [16:61] Line:1962 |
| ||
[YA]: If Allah were to punish men for their wrong-doing, He would not leave, on the (earth), a single living creature: but He gives them respite for a stated Term: When their Term expires, they would not be able to delay (the punishment) for a single hour, just as they would not be able to anticipate it (for a single hour). [RK]:If GOD punished the people for their transgressions, He would have annihilated every creature on earth. But He respites them for a specific, predetermined time. Once their interim ends, they cannot delay it by one hour, nor advance it. | ||||
132 | [16:93] Line:1994 |
| ||
[YA]: If Allah so willed, He could make you all one people: But He leaves straying whom He pleases, and He guides whom He pleases: but ye shall certainly be called to account for all your actions. [RK]:Had GOD willed, He could have made you one congregation. But He sends astray whoever chooses to go astray, and He guides whoever wishes to be guided. You will surely be asked about everything you have done. | ||||
133 | [17:42] Line:2071 |
| ||
[YA]: Say: If there had been (other) gods with Him, as they say,- behold, they would certainly have sought out a way to the Lord of the Throne! [RK]:Say, "If there were any other gods beside Him, as they claim, they would have tried to overthrow the Possessor of the throne." | ||||
134 | [17:74] Line:2103 |
| ||
[YA]: And had We not given thee strength, thou wouldst nearly have inclined to them a little. [RK]:If it were not that we strengthened you, you almost leaned towards them just a little bit. | ||||
135 | [17:88] Line:2117 |
| ||
[YA]: Say: "If the whole of mankind and Jinns were to gather together to produce the like of this Qur'an, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they backed up each other with help and support. [RK]:Say, "If all the humans and all the jinns banded together in order to produce a Quran like this, they could never produce anything like it, no matter how much assistance they lent one another." | ||||
136 | [17:95] Line:2124 |
| ||
[YA]: Say, "If there were settled, on earth, angels walking about in peace and quiet, We should certainly have sent them down from the heavens an angel for a messenger." [RK]:Say, "If the earth were inhabited by angels, we would have sent down to them from the sky an angel messenger." | ||||
137 | [17:100] Line:2129 |
| ||
[YA]: Say: "If ye had control of the Treasures of the Mercy of my Lord, behold, ye would keep them back, for fear of spending them: for man is (every) niggardly!" [RK]:Proclaim, "If you possessed my Lord's treasures of mercy, you would have withheld them, fearing that you might exhaust them. The human being is stingy." | ||||
138 | [18:18] Line:2158 |
| ||
[YA]: Thou wouldst have deemed them awake, whilst they were asleep, and We turned them on their right and on their left sides: their dog stretching forth his two fore-legs on the threshold: if thou hadst come up on to them, thou wouldst have certainly turned back from them in flight, and wouldst certainly have been filled with terror of them. [RK]:You would think that they were awake, when they were in fact asleep. We turned them to the right side and the left side, while their dog stretched his arms in their midst. Had you looked at them, you would have fled from them, stricken with terror. | ||||
139 | [18:58] Line:2198 |
| ||
[YA]: But your Lord is Most forgiving, full of Mercy. If He were to call them (at once) to account for what they have earned, then surely He would have hastened their punishment: but they have their appointed time, beyond which they will find no refuge. [RK]:Yet, your Lord is the Forgiver, full of mercy. If He called them to account for their deeds, He would annihilate them right there and then. Instead, He gives them a respite until a specific, predetermined time; then they can never escape. | ||||
140 | [18:77] Line:2217 |
| ||
[YA]: Then they proceeded: until, when they came to the inhabitants of a town, they asked them for food, but they refused them hospitality. They found there a wall on the point of falling down, but he set it up straight. (Moses) said: "If thou hadst wished, surely thou couldst have exacted some recompense for it!" [RK]:So they went. When they reached a certain community, they asked the people for food, but they refused to host them. Soon, they found a wall about to collapse, and he fixed it. He said, "You could have demanded a wage for that!" | ||||
141 | [18:109] Line:2249 |
| ||
[YA]: Say: "If the ocean were ink (wherewith to write out) the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted than would the words of my Lord, even if we added another ocean like it, for its aid." [RK]:Say, "If the ocean were ink for the words of my Lord, the ocean would run out, before the words of my Lord run out, even if we double the ink supply." | ||||
142 | [18:109] Line:2249 |
| ||
[YA]: Say: "If the ocean were ink (wherewith to write out) the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted than would the words of my Lord, even if we added another ocean like it, for its aid." [RK]:Say, "If the ocean were ink for the words of my Lord, the ocean would run out, before the words of my Lord run out, even if we double the ink supply." | ||||
143 | [20:129] Line:2477 |
| ||
[YA]: Had it not been for a Word that went forth before from thy Lord, (their punishment) must necessarily have come; but there is a Term appointed (for respite). [RK]:If it were not for your Lord's predetermined plan, they would have been judged immediately. | ||||
144 | [20:133] Line:2481 |
| ||
[YA]: They say: "Why does he not bring us a sign from his Lord?" Has not a Clear Sign come to them of all that was in the former Books of revelation? [RK]:They said, "If he could only show us a miracle from his Lord!" Did they not receive sufficient miracles with the previous messages? | ||||
145 | [20:134] Line:2482 |
| ||
[YA]: And if We had inflicted on them a penalty before this, they would have said: "Our Lord! If only Thou hadst sent us a messenger, we should certainly have followed Thy Signs before we were humbled and put to shame." [RK]:Had we annihilated them before this, they would have said, "Our Lord, had You sent a messenger to us, we would have followed Your revelations, and would have avoided this shame and humiliation." | ||||
146 | [20:134] Line:2482 |
| ||
[YA]: And if We had inflicted on them a penalty before this, they would have said: "Our Lord! If only Thou hadst sent us a messenger, we should certainly have followed Thy Signs before we were humbled and put to shame." [RK]:Had we annihilated them before this, they would have said, "Our Lord, had You sent a messenger to us, we would have followed Your revelations, and would have avoided this shame and humiliation." | ||||
147 | [21:17] Line:2500 |
| ||
[YA]: If it had been Our wish to take (just) a pastime, We should surely have taken it from the things nearest to Us, if We would do (such a thing)! [RK]:If we needed amusement, we could have initiated it without any of this, if that is what we wanted to do. | ||||
148 | [21:22] Line:2505 |
| ||
[YA]: If there were, in the heavens and the earth, other gods besides Allah, there would have been confusion in both! but glory to Allah, the Lord of the Throne: (High is He) above what they attribute to Him! [RK]:If there were in them (the heavens and the earth) other gods beside GOD, there would have been chaos. Glory be to GOD; the Lord with absolute authority. He is high above their claims. | ||||
149 | [21:39] Line:2522 |
| ||
[YA]: If only the Unbelievers knew (the time) when they will not be able to ward off the fire from their faces, nor yet from their backs, and (when) no help can reach them! [RK]:If only those who disbelieve could envision themselves when they try to ward off the fire - off their faces and their backs! No one will help them then. | ||||
150 | [21:99] Line:2582 |
| ||
[YA]: If these had been gods, they would not have got there! but each one will abide therein. [RK]:If those were gods, they would not have ended up in Hell. All its inhabitants abide in it forever. | ||||
