There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him. To Him ˹alone˺ is the final return."],[4,"None disputes the signs of Allah except the disbelievers, so do not be deceived by their prosperity throughout the land."],[5,"Before them, the people of Noah denied ˹the truth˺, as did ˹other˺ enemy forces afterwards. Every community plotted against its prophet to seize him, and argued in falsehood, ˹hoping˺ to discredit the truth with it. So I seized them. And how ˹horrible˺ was My punishment!"],[6,"And so your Lord’s decree has been proven true against the disbelievers—that they will be the inmates of the Fire."],[7,"Those ˹angels˺ who carry the Throne and those around it glorify the praises of their Lord, have faith in Him, and seek forgiveness for the believers, ˹praying:˺ “Our Lord! You encompass everything in ˹Your˺ mercy and knowledge. So forgive those who repent and follow Your Way, and protect them from the torment of the Hellfire."],[8,"Our Lord! Admit them into the Gardens of Eternity which You have promised them, along with the righteous among their parents, spouses, and descendants. You ˹alone˺ are truly the Almighty, All-Wise."],[9,"And protect them from ˹the consequences of their˺ evil deeds. For whoever You protect from the evil of their deeds on that Day will have been shown Your mercy. That is ˹truly˺ the ultimate triumph.”"],[10,"Indeed, it will be announced to the disbelievers, “Allah’s contempt for you—as you disbelieved when invited to belief—was far worse than your contempt for one another ˹Today˺.”"],[11,"They will plead, “Our Lord! You made us lifeless twice, and gave us life twice.Now we confess our sins. So is there any way out?”"],[12,"˹They will be told,˺ “˹No!˺ This is because when Allah alone was invoked, you ˹staunchly˺ disbelieved. But when others were associated with Him ˹in worship˺, you ˹readily˺ believed. So ˹Today˺ judgment belongs to Allah ˹alone˺—the Most High, All-Great.”"],[13,"He is the One Who shows you His signs and sends down ˹rain as˺ a provision for you from the sky. ˹But˺ none will be mindful except those who turn ˹to Him˺."],[14,"So call upon Allah with sincere devotion, even to the dismay of the disbelievers."],[15,"˹He is˺ Highly Exalted in rank, Lord of the Throne. He sends down the revelation by His command to whoever He wills of His servants to warn ˹all˺ of the Day of Meeting—"],[16,"the Day all will appear ˹before Allah˺. Nothing about them will be hidden from Him. ˹He will ask,˺ “Who does all authority belong to this Day? To Allah—the One, the Supreme!"],[17,"Today every soul will be rewarded for what it has done. No injustice Today! Surely Allah is swift in reckoning.”"],[18,"Warn them ˹O Prophet˺ of the approaching Day when the hearts will jump into the throats, suppressing distress.
