they wronged themselves. Evil was the end of the evil-doers, because
they had denied the revelations ofAllah and scoffed at them.
Allah brings His creatures into being and then He reproduces them.
ToHimHe will recall you all.
On the day when the Hour of Doom strikes, the wrongdoers will be
speechless with despair. None of their partners will intercede for them;
indeed, they shall deny their partners.
On the day when the Hour of Doom strikes, mankind will be
separated one from the other. Those who have believed and done good
works shall rejoice in a fair garden; but those who have disbelieved and
denied Our revelations and the meeting of the life to come, shall be
delivered up for punishment.
Therefore, glorifyAllah when you enter the evening and when you
rise in the morning. Praise be to Him in the heavens and the earth, in the
afternoon and at noon.
He brings forth the living from the dead, and the dead from the
living, and revives the earth after its death. Likewise you shall be
brought forth.
And of His signs is that He created you from dust and behold: you
became men and multiplied throughout the earth. And of His signs is
that He gave you wives from among yourselves, that you might live in
tranquillity with them, and put love and kindness in your hearts. Surely
there are Signs in this for thinkingmen.
And of His signs are the creation of heaven and earth and the diversity
of your tongues and colours. Surely there are signs in this for all mankind.
