[[1,"Alif-Lãm-Ra. These are the verses of the Book; the clear Quran."],[2,"˹The day will come when˺ the disbelievers will certainly wish they had submitted ˹to Allah˺."],[3,"˹So˺ let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by ˹false˺ hope, for they will soon know."],[4,"We have never destroyed a society without a destined term."],[5,"No people can advance their doom, nor can they delay it."],[6,"They say, “O you to whom the Reminder is revealed! You must be insane!"],[7,"Why do you not bring us the angels, if what you say is true?”"],[8,"We do not send the angels down except for a just cause, and then ˹the end of˺ the disbelievers will not be delayed."],[9,"It is certainly We Who have revealed the Reminder, and it is certainly We Who will preserve it."],[10,"Indeed, We sent messengers before you ˹O Prophet˺ among the groups of early peoples,"],[11,"but no messenger ever came to them without being mocked."],[12,"This is how We allow disbelief ˹to steep˺ into the hearts of the wicked."],[13,"They would not believe in this ˹Quran˺ despite the ˹many˺ examples of those ˹destroyed˺ before."],[14,"And even if We opened for them a gate to heaven, through which they continued to ascend,"],[15,"still they would say, “Our eyes have truly been dazzled! In fact, we must have been bewitched.”"],[16,"Indeed, We have placed constellations in the sky, and adorned it for all to see."],[17,"And We protected it from every accursed devil,"],[18,"except the one eavesdropping, who is then pursued by a visible flare."],[19,"As for the earth, We spread it out and placed upon it firm mountains, and caused everything to grow there in perfect balance."],[20,"And We made in it means of sustenance for you and others, who you do not provide for."],[21,"There is not any means ˹of sustenance˺ whose reserves We do not hold, only bringing it forth in precise measure."],[22,"We send fertilizing winds, and bring down rain from the sky for you to drink. It is not you who hold its reserves."],[23,"Surely it is We Who give life and cause death. And We are the ˹Eternal˺ Successor."],[24,"We certainly know those who have gone before you and those who will come after ˹you˺."],[25,"Surely your Lord ˹alone˺ will gather them together ˹for judgment˺. He is truly All-Wise, All-Knowing."],[26,"Indeed, We created man from sounding clay moulded from black mud."],[27,"As for the jinn, We created them earlier from smokeless fire."],[28,"˹Remember, O  Prophet˺ when your Lord said to the angels, “I am going to create a human being from sounding clay moulded from black mud."],[29,"So when I have fashioned him and had a spirit of My Own ˹creation˺ breathed into him, fall down in prostration to him.”"],[30,"So the angels prostrated all together—"],[31,"but not Iblîs, who refused to prostrate with the others."],[32,"Allah asked, “O Iblîs! What is the matter with you that you did not join others in prostration?”"],[33,"He replied, “It is not for me to prostrate to a human You created from sounding clay moulded from black mud.”"],[34,"Allah commanded, “Then get out of Paradise, for you are truly cursed."],[35,"And surely upon you is condemnation until the Day of Judgment.”"],[36,"Satan appealed, “My Lord! Then delay my end until the Day of their resurrection.”"],[37,"Allah said, “You will be delayed"],[38,"until the appointed Day.”"],[39,"Satan responded, “My Lord! For allowing me to stray I will surely tempt them on earth and mislead them all together,"],[40,"except Your chosen servants among them.”"],[41,"Allah said, “This is the Way, binding on Me:"],[42,"you will certainly have no authority over My servants, except the deviant who follow you,"],[43,"and surely Hell is their destined place, all together."],[44,"It has seven gates, to each a group of them is designated.”"],[45,"Indeed, the righteous will be amid Gardens and springs."],[46,"˹It will be said to them,˺ “Enter in peace and security.”"],[47,"We will remove whatever bitterness they had in their hearts. In a friendly manner, they will be on thrones, facing one another."],[48,"No fatigue will touch them there, nor will they ever be asked to leave."],[49,"Inform My servants ˹O Prophet˺ that I am truly the All-Forgiving, Most Merciful,"],[50,"and that My torment is indeed the most painful."],[51,"And inform them ˹O Prophet˺ about Abraham’s guests"],[52,"who entered upon him and greeted ˹him with˺, “Peace!” He ˹later˺ said, “Surely we are afraid of you.”"],[53,"They reassured ˹him˺, “Do not be afraid! Surely we give you good news of a knowledgeable son.”"],[54,"He wondered, “Do you give me good news despite my old age? What unlikely news!”"],[55,"They responded, “We give you good news in all truth, so do not be one of those who despair.”"],[56,"He exclaimed, “Who would despair of the mercy of their Lord except the misguided?”"],[57,"He ˹then˺ added, “What is your mission, O  messenger-angels?”"],[58,"They replied, “We have actually been sent to a wicked people."],[59,"As for the family of Lot, we will certainly deliver them all,"],[60,"except his wife. We have determined that she will be one of the doomed.”"],[61,"So when the messengers came to the family of Lot,"],[62,"he said, “You are surely an unfamiliar people!”"],[63,"They responded, “We have come to you with that ˹torment˺ which they have doubted."],[64,"We come to you with the truth, and we are certainly truthful."],[65,"So travel with your family in the dark of night, and follow ˹closely˺ behind them. Do not let any of you look back, and go where you are commanded.”"],[66,"We revealed to him this decree: “Those ˹sinners˺ will be uprooted in the morning.”"],[67,"And there came the men of the city, rejoicing."],[68,"Lot pleaded, “Indeed, these are my guests, so do not embarrass me."],[69,"Fear Allah and do not humiliate me.”"],[70,"They responded, “Have we not forbidden you from protecting anyone?”"],[71,"He said, “O my people! Here are my daughters ˹so marry them˺ if you wish to do so.”"],[72,"By your life ˹O Prophet˺, they certainly wandered blindly, intoxicated ˹by lust˺."],[73,"So the ˹mighty˺ blast overtook them at sunrise."],[74,"And We turned the cities ˹of Sodom and Gomorrah˺ upside down and rained upon them stones of baked clay."],[75,"Surely in this are signs for those who contemplate."],[76,"Their ruins still lie along a known route."],[77,"Surely in this is a sign for those who believe."],[78,"And the residents of the Forest were truly wrongdoers,"],[79,"so We inflicted punishment upon them. The ruins of both nations still lie on a well-known road."],[80,"Indeed, the residents of the Stone Valley also denied the messengers."],[81,"We gave them Our signs, but they turned away from them."],[82,"They carved their homes in the mountains, feeling secure."],[83,"But the ˹mighty˺ blast overtook them in the morning,"],[84,"and all they achieved was of no help to them."],[85,"We have not created the heavens and the earth and everything in between except for a purpose. And the Hour is certain to come, so forgive graciously."],[86,"Surely your Lord is the Master Creator, All-Knowing."],[87,"We have certainly granted you the seven often-repeated verses and the great Quran."],[88,"Do not let your eyes crave the ˹fleeting˺ pleasures We have provided for some of the disbelievers, nor grieve for them. And be gracious to the believers."],[89,"And say, “I am truly sent with a clear warning”—"],[90,"˹a warning˺ similar to what We sent to those who divided ˹the Scriptures˺,"],[91,"who ˹now˺ accept parts of the Quran, rejecting others."],[92,"So by your Lord! We will certainly question them all"],[93,"about what they used to do."],[94,"So proclaim what you have been commanded, and turn away from the polytheists."],[95,"Surely We will be sufficient for you against the mockers,"],[96,"who set up ˹other˺ gods with Allah. They will soon come to know."],[97,"We certainly know that your heart is truly distressed by what they say."],[98,"So glorify the praises of your Lord and be one of those who ˹always˺ pray,"],[99,"and worship your Lord until the inevitable comes your way."]]
