Quran chapter: Chapter 15: Al-Hijr Valley (Al-Hijr)‎

A.L.R.* These (letters) are proofs of this scripture; a profound Quran.

الر تِلكَ ءايٰتُ الكِتٰبِ وَقُرءانٍ مُبينٍ

Alif-Laaam-Raa; tilka Aayaatul Kitaabi wa Qur-aa-nim Mubeen

*15:1 & *15:9 The divine source and the perfect preservation of the Quran are proven by the Quran’s mathematical code (Appendix 1). God’s Messenger of the Covenant was destined to unveil this great miracle. The word “Dhikr” denotes the Quran’s code in several verses (15:6, 21:2, 26:5, 38:1, 38:8, 74:31). The value of “Rashad Khalifa” (1230)+15+9=1254, 19×66.

Certainly, those who disbelieved will wish they were submitters.

رُبَما يَوَدُّ الَّذينَ كَفَروا لَو كانوا مُسلِمينَ

rubamaa yawaddul lazeena kafaroo law kaanoo muslimeen

Let them eat, enjoy, and remain blinded by wishful thinking; they will find out.

ذَرهُم يَأكُلوا وَيَتَمَتَّعوا وَيُلهِهِمُ الأَمَلُ فَسَوفَ يَعلَمونَ

zarhum yaakuloo wa yatamatta’oo wa yulhihimul amalu fasawfa ya’lamoon

We never annihilated any community, except in accordance with a specific, predetermined time.

وَما أَهلَكنا مِن قَريَةٍ إِلّا وَلَها كِتابٌ مَعلومٌ

wa maaa ahlaknaa min qaryatin illaa wa lahaa kitaabum ma’loom

The end of any community can never be advanced, nor delayed.

ما تَسبِقُ مِن أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَها وَما يَستَـٔخِرونَ

maa tasbiqu min ummatin ajalahaa wa maa yastaakhiroon

They said, “O you who received this reminder, you are crazy.

وَقالوا يٰأَيُّهَا الَّذى نُزِّلَ عَلَيهِ الذِّكرُ إِنَّكَ لَمَجنونٌ

wa qaaloo yaaa aiyuhal lazee nuzzila ‘alaihiz Zikru innaka lamajnoon

“Why do you not bring down the angels, if you are truthful?”

لَو ما تَأتينا بِالمَلٰئِكَةِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقينَ

law maa taateenaa bil malaaa’ikati in kunta minas saadiqeen

We do not send down the angels except for specific functions. Otherwise, no one will be respited.

ما نُنَزِّلُ المَلٰئِكَةَ إِلّا بِالحَقِّ وَما كانوا إِذًا مُنظَرينَ

maa nunazzilul malaaa’i kata illaa bilhaqqi wa maa kaanooo izam munzareen

(God’s Messenger of the Covenant*)

Absolutely, we have revealed the reminder, and, absolutely, we will preserve it.

إِنّا نَحنُ نَزَّلنَا الذِّكرَ وَإِنّا لَهُ لَحٰفِظونَ

innaa Nahnu nazalnaz Zikra wa Innaa lahoo lahaa fizoon

*15:1 & *15:9 The divine source and the perfect preservation of the Quran are proven by the Quran’s mathematical code (Appendix 1). God’s Messenger of the Covenant was destined to unveil this great miracle. The word “Dhikr” denotes the Quran’s code in several verses (15:6, 21:2, 26:5, 38:1, 38:8, 74:31). The value of “Rashad Khalifa” (1230)+15+9=1254, 19×66.

We have sent (messengers) before you to the communities in the past.

وَلَقَد أَرسَلنا مِن قَبلِكَ فى شِيَعِ الأَوَّلينَ

wa laqad arsalnaa min qablika fee shiya’il awwaleen
