Basic HTML Version

To Allah belong all (who dwell) on earth and in heaven. Those who
invoke associates besides Allah follow nothing but idle fancies and
preach nothing but falsehoods.
He it is who has made the night for your rest and (given) the day light.
Surely in this there are signs for people who listen.
They Say: 'Allah has begotten a son.' Allah forbid! Self-sufficient is
He. His is all that the heavens and the earth contain. Surely for this you
have no sanction.Would you say ofAllahwhat you do not know?
Say: 'Those that invent falsehoods about Allah shall not prosper.
(They may take their) ease in this life, but to Us they shall (in the end)
return, andWe will sternly punish them for their unbelief.'
And recount to them the tale of Nuh. He said to his people: 'O my
people, if it is hard on you that I should dwell in your midst and preach
to you Allah's revelations-for in Him I have put my trust-decide your
course of action and gather your associates (besides Allah). Let not
your action be dubious. Execute your judgement against me, and give
me no respite. Then if you turn away from me, I demand of you no
recompense.Allah will reward me. I am commanded to be one of those
who surrender themselves toHim.'
But they disbelieved him. Therefore We saved Nuh and those who
were with him in the Ark, and made them successors, and drowned
those who denied Our revelations. Consider the fate of those who were
givenwarning.
After himWe sent apostles to their descendants. They showed them
clear signs, but they would not believe in what they had disbelieved.
