- Say (O Muhammad): It is revealed unto me that a company of the
Jinn gave ear, and they said: Lo! we have heard a marvellous Qur'an,
- Which guideth unto righteousness, so we believe in it and we
ascribe no partner unto our Lord.
- And (we believe) that He - exalted be the glory of our Lord! -
hath taken neither wife nor son,
- And that the foolish one among us used to speak concerning
Allah an atrocious lie.
- And lo! we had supposed that humankind and jinn would not
speak a lie concerning Allah -
- And indeed (O Muhammad) individuals of humankind used to
invoke the protection of individuals of the jinn, so that they
increased them in revolt against Allah);
- And indeed they supposed, even as ye suppose, that Allah would
not raise anyone (from the dead) -
- And (the Jinn who had listened to the Qur'an said): We had
sought the heaven but had found it filled with strong warders and
meteors.
- And we used to sit on places (high) therein to listen. But he
who listeneth now findeth a flame in wait for him;
- And we know not whether harm is boded unto all who are in the
earth, or whether their Lord intendeth guidance for them.
- And among us there are righteous folk and among us there are
far from that. We are sects having different rules.
- And we know that we cannot escape from Allah in the earth, nor
can we escape by flight.
- And when we heard the guidance, we believed therein, and whoso
believeth in his Lord, he feareth neither loss nor oppression.
- And there are among us some who have surrendered (to Allah)
and there are among us some who are unjust. And whoso hath surrendered
to Allah, such have taken the right path purposefully.
- And as for those who are unjust, they are firewood for hell.
- If they (the idolaters) tread the right path, We shall give
them to drink of water in abundance
- That We may test them thereby, and whoso turneth away from the
remembrance of his Lord; He will thrust him into ever-growing torment.
- And the places of worship are only for Allah, so pray not unto
anyone along with Allah.
- And when the slave of Allah stood up in prayer to Him, they
crowded on him, almost stifling.
- Say (unto them, O Muhammad): I pray unto Allah only, and
ascribe unto Him no partner.
- Say: Lo! I control not hurt nor benefit for you.
- Say: Lo! none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find any
refuge beside Him
- (Mine is) but conveyance (of the Truth) from Allah, and His
messages; and whoso disobeyeth Allah and His messenger, lo! his is
fire of hell, wherein such dwell for ever.
- Till (the day) when they shall behold that which they are
promised (they may doubt); but then they will know (for certain) who
is weaker in allies and less in multitude.
- Say (O Muhammad, unto the disbelievers): I know not whether
that which ye are promised is nigh, or if my Lord hath set a distant
term for it.
- (He is) the Knower of the Unseen, and He revealeth unto none
His secret,
- Save unto every messenger whom He hath chosen, and then He
maketh a guard to go before him and a guard behind him
- That He may know that they have indeed conveyed the messages
of their Lord. He surroundeth all their doings, and He keepeth count
of all things.
