*
"The Holy Quran", tr. by Yusuf Ali, [1934],

Sra Xi.: Hd (the Prophet Hd).

Section 2

9.
Wala-in athaqna al-insana minna rahmatan thumma nazaAAnaha minhu innahu layaoosun kafoorUn

9.
If We give man a taste

Of Mercy from Ourselves,

And then withdraw it from him,

Behold! he is in despair

And (falls into) blasphemy.

10.
Wala-in athaqnahu naAAmaa baAAda darraa massat-hu layaqoolanna thahaba aLssayyi-atu AAannee innahu lafarihun fakhoorUn

10.
But if We give hint a taste

Of (Our) favours after

Adversity hath touched him,

He is sure to say,

"All evil has departed from me:


Behold! he falls into exultation

And pride.

11.
Illa allatheena sabaroo waAAamiloo aLssalihati ola-ika lahum maghfiratun waajrun kabeerUn

11.
Not so do those who show

Patience and constancy, and work

Righteousness; for them

Is forgiveness (of sins)

And a great reward.

12.
FalaAAallaka tarikun baAAda ma yooha ilayka wada-iqun bihi sadruka an yaqooloo lawla onzila AAalayhi kanzun aw jaa maAAahu malakun innama anta natheerun waAllahu AAala kulli shay-in wakeelUn

12.
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 God that arrangeth

All affairs!

13.
Am yaqooloona iftarahu qul fa/too biAAashri suwarin mithlihi muftarayatin waOdAAoo mani istataAAtum min dooni Allahi in kuntum sadiqeenA

13.
Or they may say, "He forged it."

Say, "Bring ye then ten Sras

Forged, like unto it, and call

(To your aid) whomsoever

Ye can, other than God!--

If ye speak the truth!

14.
Fa-illam yastajeeboo lakum faIAAlamoo annama onzila biAAilmi Allahi waan la ilaha illa huwa fahal antum muslimoonA

14.
\"If then they (your false gods)

Answer not your (call),

Know ye that this Revelation

Is sent down (replete) with the knowledge

Of God, and that there is

No god but He! Will ye

Even then submit (to Islam)?"

15. Man kana yureedu alhayata aLddunya wazeenataha nuwaffi ilayhim aAAmalahum feeha wahum feeha la yubkhasoonA

15.
Those who desire

The life of the Present

And its glitter,--to them

We shall pay (the price

Of
) their deeds therein,--

Without diminution.

16.
Ola-ika allatheena laysa lahum fee al-akhirati illa aLnnaru wahabita ma sanaAAoo feeha wabatilun ma kanoo yaAAmaloonA

16.
They are those for whom

There is nothing in the Hereafter

But the Fire: vain

Are the designs they frame therein,

And of no effect

Are the deeds that they do!

17.
Afaman kana AAala bayyinatin min rabbihi wayatloohu shahidun minhu wamin qablihi kitabu moosa imaman warahmatan ola-ika yu/minoona bihi waman yakfur bihi mina al-ahzabi faALnnaru mawAAiduhu fala taku fee miryatin minhu innahu alhaqqu min rabbika walakinna akthara aLnnasi la yu/minoonA

17.
Can they be (like) those

Who accept a Clear (Sign)

From their Lord, and whom

A witness from Himself

Doth teach, as did the Book

Of Moses before it,--a guide

And a mercy? They believe

Therein; but those of the Sects

That reject it,--the Fire

Will be their promised

Meeting-place. Be not then

In doubt thereon: for it is

The Truth from thy Lord:


Yet many among men

Do not believe!

18.
Waman a"th"lamu mimmani iftara AAala Allahi kathiban ola-ika yuAAradoona AAala rabbihim wayaqoolu al-ashhadu haola-i allatheena kathaboo AAala rabbihim ala laAAnatu Allahi AAala aL"thth"alimeenA

18.
Who doth more wrong

Than those who invent a lie

Against God? They will be

Turned back to the presence

Of their Lord, and the witnesses

Will say, "These are the ones

Who lied against their Lord!

Behold! the Curse of God

Is on those who do wrong!--

19.
Allatheena yasuddoona AAan sabeeli Allahi wayabghoonaha AAiwajan wahum biAl-akhirati hum kafiroonA

19.
\"Those who would hinder (men)

From the path of God

And would seek in it

Something crooked: these were

They who denied the Hereafter!"

20. Ola-ika lam yakoonoo muAAjizeena fee al-ardi wama kana lahum min dooni Allahi min awliyaa yudaAAafu lahumu alAAathabu ma kanoo yastateeAAoona aLssamAAa wama kanoo yubsiroonA

20.
They will in no wise

Frustrate (His design) on earth,

Nor have they protectors

Besides God! Their penalty

Will be doubled! They lost

The power to hear,

And they did not see!

21.
Ola-ika allatheena khasiroo anfusahum wadalla AAanhum ma kanoo yaftaroonA

21.
They are the ones who

Have lost their own souls:

And the (fancies) they invented

Have left them in the lurch!

22.
La jarama annahum fee al-akhirati humu al-akhsaroonA

22.
Without a doubt, these

Are the very ones who

Will lose most in the Hereafter!

23.
Inna allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo aLsalihati waakhbatoo ila rabbihim ola-ika as-habu aljannati hum feeha khalidoonA

23.
But those who believe

And work righteousness,

And humble themselves

Before their Lord,--

They will be Companions

Of the Garden, to dwell

Therein for aye!

24.
Mathalu alfareeqayni kaAl-aAAma waAl-asammi waAlbaseeri waALssameeAAi hal yastawiyani mathalan afala tathakkaroonA

24.
These two kinds (of men)

May be compared to

The blind and deaf,

And those who can see

And hear well. Are they

Equal when compared?

Will ye not then take heed?
