Sura Ii. Baqara, Or The Heifer. Section 20 * "The Holy Quran", tr. by Yusuf Ali, [1934 ], Sra Ii.: Baqara, Or The Heifer.Section 20 164. Inna fee khalqi aLssamawati waAl-ardi waIkhtilafi allayli waALnnahari waAlfulki allatee tajree fee albahri bima yanfaAAu aLnnasa wama anzala Allahu mina aLssama-i min ma-in faahya bihi al-arda baAAda mawtiha wabaththa feeha min kulli dabbatin watasreefi aLrriyahi waALssahabi almusakhkhari bayna aLssama-i waAl-ardi laayatin liqawmin yaAAqiloonA 164. Behold! In the creation Of the heavens and the earth; In the alternation Of the Night and the Day; In the sailing of the ships Through the Ocean For the profit of mankind; In the rain which God Sends down from the skies, And the life which He gives therewith To an earth that is dead; In the beasts of all kinds That He scatters Through the earth; In the change of the winds, And the clouds which they Trail like their slaves Between the sky and the earth;-- (Here ) indeed are Signs For a people that are wise. 165. Wamina aLnnasi man yattakhithu min dooni Allahi andadan yuhibboonahum kahubbi Allahi waAllatheena amanoo ashaddu hubban lillahi walaw yara allatheena "th"alamoo ith yarawna alAAathaba anna alquwwata lillahi jameeAAan waanna Allaha shadeedu alAAathabI 165. Yet there are men Who take (for worship) Others besides God, As equal (with God ): They love them As they should love God. But those of Faith are Overflowing in their love For God. If only The unrighteous could see, Behold, they would see The Penalty: that to God Belongs all power, and God Will strongly enforce The Penalty. 166. Ith tabarraa allatheena ittubiAAoo mina allatheena ittabaAAoo waraawoo alAAathaba wataqattaAAat bihimu al-asbabU 166. 167. Waqala allatheena ittabaAAoo law anna lana karratan fanatabarraa minhum kama tabarraoo minna kathalika yureehimu Allahu aAAmalahum hasaratin AAalayhim wama hum bikharijeena mina aLnnarI 167. And those who followed Would say: "If only We had one more chance, We would clear ourselves Of them, as they have Cleared themselves of us." Thus will God show them (The fruits of ) their deeds As (nothing but ) regrets. Nor will there be a way For them out of the Fire.
