Section 5
28. Alam tara ila allatheena baddaloo niAAmata Allahi kufran waahalloo qawmahum dara albawarI
28.
Into blasphemy and caused
Their people to descend
To the House of Perdition?--
29. Jahannama yaslawnaha wabi/sa alqararU
29. Into Hell? They will burn
Therein,--an evil place
To stay in!
30. WajaAAaloo lillahi andadan liyudilloo AAan sabeelihi qul tamattaAAoo fa-inna maseerakum ila aLnnarI
30. And they set up (idols)
As equal to God, to mislead
(Men) from the Path! Say:
"Enjoy (your brief power)!
But verily ye are making
Straightway for Hell!"
31. Qul liAAibadiya allatheena amanoo yuqeemoo aLssalata wayunfiqoo mimma razaqnahum sirran waAAalaniyatan min qabli an ya/tiya yawmun la bayAAun feehi wala khilalUn
31. Speak to my servants
Who have believed,
That they may establish
Regular prayers, and spend
(In charity) out of the Sustenance
We have given them,
Secretly and openly, before
The coming of a Day
In which there will be
Neither mutual bargaining
Nor befriending.
32. Allahu allathee khalaqa aLssamawati waAl-arda waanzala mina aLssama-i maan faakhraja bihi mina aLththamarati rizqan lakum wasakhkhara lakumu alfulka litajriya fee albahri bi-amrihi wasakhkhara lakumu al-anharA
32. It is God Who hath created
The heavens and the earth
And sendeth down rain
From the skies, and with it
Bringeth out fruits wherewith
To feed you; it is He
Who hath made the ships subject
To you, that they may sail
Through the sea by His Command;
And the rivers (also)
Hath He made subject to you.
33. Wasakhkhara lakumu aLshshamsa waAlqamara da-ibayni wasakhkhara lakumu allayla waALnnaharA
33. And He hath made subject
To you the sun and the moon,
Both diligently pursuing
Their courses; and the Night
And the Day hath He (also)
Made subject to you.
34. Waatakum min kulli ma saaltumoohu wa-in taAAuddoo niAAmata Allahi la tuhsooha inna al-insana la"th"aloomun kaffarUn
34. And He giveth you
Of all that ye ask for.
But if ye count the favours
Of God, never will ye
Be able to number them.
Verily, man is given up
To injustice and ingratitude.
