Sura Xxxi. Luqman. Section 3 * "The Holy Quran", tr. by Yusuf Ali, [1934 ], Sra Xxxi.: Luqmn (the Wise ).Section 3 20. Alam taraw anna Allaha sakhkhara lakum ma fee aLssamawati wama fee al-ardi waasbagha AAalaykum niAAamahu "th"ahiratan wabatinatan wamina aLnnasi man yujadilu fee Allahi bighayri AAilmin wala hudan wala kitabin muneerIn 20. Do ye not see That God has subjected To your (use ) all things In the heavens and on earth, And has made His bounties Flow to you in exceeding Measure, (both ) seen and unseen? Yet there are among men Those who dispute about God, Without knowledge and without Guidance, and without a Book To enlighten them! 21. Wa-itha qeela lahumu ittabiAAoo ma anzala Allahu qaloo bal nattabiAAu ma wajadna AAalayhi abaana awa law kana aLshshaytanu yadAAoohum ila AAathabi aLssaAAeerI 21. When they are told to follow The (Revelation ) that God Has sent down, they say: "Nay, we shall follow The ways that we found Our fathers (following )." What! even if it is Satan beckoning them To the Penalty Of the (Blazing ) Fire? 22. Waman yuslim wajhahu ila Allahi wahuwa muhsinun faqadi istamsaka biAlAAurwati alwuthqa wa-ila Allahi AAaqibatu al-omoorI 22. Whoever submits His whole self to God, And is a doer of good, Has grasped indeed The most trustworthy hand-hold And with God rests the End And Decision of (all ) affairs. 23. Waman kafara fala yahzunka kufruhu ilayna marjiAAuhum fanunabbi-ohum bima AAamiloo inna Allaha AAaleemun bithati aLssudoorI 23. But if any reject Faith, Let not his rejection Grieve thee: to Us Is their Return, and We Shall tell them the truth Of their deeds: for God Knows well all that is In (men's ) hearts. 24. NumattiAAuhum qaleelan thumma nadtarruhum ila AAathabin ghalee"th"In 24. We grant them their pleasure For a little while In the end shall We Drive them to A chastisement unrelenting. 25. Wala-in saaltahum man khalaqa aLssamawati waAl-arda layaqoolunna Allahu quli alhamdu lillahi bal aktharuhum la yaAAlamoonA 25. If thou ask them, Who it is that created The heavens and the earth. They will certainly say, "God". Say: "Praise be to God!" But most of them Understand not. 26. Lillahi ma fee aLssamawati waAl-ardi inna Allaha huwa alghaniyyu alhameedU 26. To God belong all things In heaven and earth: verily God is He (that is) Free of all wants, Worthy of all praise. 27. Walaw annama fee al-ardi min shajaratin aqlamun waAlbahru yamudduhu min baAAdihi sabAAatu abhurin ma nafidat kalimatu Allahi inna Allaha AAazeezun hakeemUn 27. And if all the trees On earth were pens And the Ocean (were ink ), With seven Oceans behind it To add to its (supply ), Yet would not the Words Of God be exhausted (In the writing ): for God Is Exalted in power, Full of Wisdom. 28. Ma khalqukum wala baAAthukum illa kanafsin wahidatin inna Allaha sameeAAun baseerUn 28. And your creation Or your resurrection Is in no wise but As an individual soul: For God is He Who Hears and sees (all things ). 29. Alam tara anna Allaha yooliju allayla fee aLnnahari wayooliju aLnnahara fee allayli wasakhkhara aLshshamsa waAlqamara kullun yajree ila ajalin musamman waanna Allaha bima taAAmaloona khabeerUn 29. Seest thou not that God merges Night into Day And He merges Day into Night; That He has subjected the sun, And the moon (to His Law ), Each running its course For a term appointed; and That God is well acquainted With all that ye do? 30. Thalika bi-anna Allaha huwa alhaqqu waanna ma yadAAoona min doonihi albatilu waanna Allaha huwa alAAaliyyu alkabeerU 30. That is because God is The (only ) Reality, and because Whatever else they invoke Besides Him is Falsehood; And because God,--He is The Most High, Most Great.
