Page 273 - The Quran

Basic HTML Version

'You know full well,' he replied, 'that none but the Lord of the
heavens and the earth has sent down these as examples. Indeed, O
pharaoh, I believe you are doomed.'
Pharaoh sought to scare them out of the land: but We drowned him,
together with all who were wilh him. And We said thereafter to the
Children of Israel: 'Dwell in this land. When the promise of the
Hereafter comes to be fulfilled,We shall assemble you all together.'
We have sent down (the Quran) in truth, and in truth it has come
down. We have sent you forth only to proclaim good news and to give
warning.
(It is) a Quran which We have divided into sections so that you may
recite it to the people with deliberation.We have imparted it by gradual
revelation.
Say: 'It is up to you to believe or not to believe in it. Those to whom
knowledge was given before its revelation prostrate themselves upon
their faces when it is recited to them and say: “Glorious is our Lord.
His promise has been fulfilled.” They fall down upon their faces,
weeping; and as they listen, their humility increases.'
Say: 'Call onAllah or onAl-Rahman. By whatever name you call (is
well). His are theMost Beautiful Names.'
Pray neither with a loud voice nor with a low one, but seek between
these extremes a middle course. Say: 'Praise be toAllah who has never
begotten a son; who has no partner in His Sovereignty; who needs
none to defendHim fromhumiliation.' ProclaimHis greatness.
