Say, “Roam the earth and note the consequences for the rejectors.”
قُل سيروا فِى الأَرضِ ثُمَّ انظُروا كَيفَ كانَ عٰقِبَةُ المُكَذِّبينَ
qul seeroo fil ardi summan zuroo kaifa kaana ‘aaqibatul mukazzibeen
Say, “Roam the earth and note the consequences for the rejectors.”
قُل سيروا فِى الأَرضِ ثُمَّ انظُروا كَيفَ كانَ عٰقِبَةُ المُكَذِّبينَ
qul seeroo fil ardi summan zuroo kaifa kaana ‘aaqibatul mukazzibeen
Say, “To whom belongs everything in the heavens and the earth?” Say, “To God.” He has decreed that mercy is His attribute. He will surely summon you all on the Day of Resurrection, which is inevitable. The ones who lose their souls are those who disbelieve.
قُل لِمَن ما فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضِ قُل لِلَّهِ كَتَبَ عَلىٰ نَفسِهِ الرَّحمَةَ لَيَجمَعَنَّكُم إِلىٰ يَومِ القِيٰمَةِ لا رَيبَ فيهِ الَّذينَ خَسِروا أَنفُسَهُم فَهُم لا يُؤمِنونَ
qul limam maa fis samaawaati wal ardi qul lillaah; kataba ‘alaa nafsihir rahmah; la yajma ‘annakum ilaa Yawmil Qiyaamati laa raiba feeh; allazeena khasirooo anfusahum fahum laa yu’minoon
To Him belongs everything that dwells in the night and the day. He is the Hearer, the Knower.
وَلَهُ ما سَكَنَ فِى الَّيلِ وَالنَّهارِ وَهُوَ السَّميعُ العَليمُ
wa lahoo maa sakana fillaili wannahaar; wa Huwas Samee’ul Aleem
Say, “Shall I accept other than God as a Lord and Master, when He is the Initiator of the heavens and the earth, and He feeds but is not fed?” Say, “I am commanded to be the most devoted submitter, and, `Do not be an idol worshiper.’ “
قُل أَغَيرَ اللَّهِ أَتَّخِذُ وَلِيًّا فاطِرِ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضِ وَهُوَ يُطعِمُ وَلا يُطعَمُ قُل إِنّى أُمِرتُ أَن أَكونَ أَوَّلَ مَن أَسلَمَ وَلا تَكونَنَّ مِنَ المُشرِكينَ
qul aghairal laahi attakhizu waliyyan faatiris samaawaati wal ardi wa Huwa yut’imu wa laa yut’am; qul inneee umirtu an akoona awwala man aslama wa laa takoonanna minal mushrikeen
Say, “I fear, if I disobeyed my Lord, the retribution of an awesome day.
قُل إِنّى أَخافُ إِن عَصَيتُ رَبّى عَذابَ يَومٍ عَظيمٍ
qul inneee akhaafu in ‘asaitu Rabbee ‘azaaba Yawmin ‘Azeem
“Whoever is spared (the retribution), on that day, has attained His mercy. And this is the greatest triumph.”
مَن يُصرَف عَنهُ يَومَئِذٍ فَقَد رَحِمَهُ وَذٰلِكَ الفَوزُ المُبينُ
mai yusraf ‘anhu Yawma’izin faqad rahimah; wa zaalikal fawzul mubeen
(Only God Controls Happiness)
If God touches you with adversity, none can relieve it except He. And if He touches you with a blessing, He is Omnipotent.
وَإِن يَمسَسكَ اللَّهُ بِضُرٍّ فَلا كاشِفَ لَهُ إِلّا هُوَ وَإِن يَمسَسكَ بِخَيرٍ فَهُوَ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَىءٍ قَديرٌ
wa iny-yamsaskal laahu bidurrin falaaa kaashifa lahoo illaa Huwa wa iny-yamsaska bikhairin fa Huwa ‘alaa kulli shai’in Qadeer
He is Supreme over His creatures. He is the Most Wise, the Cognizant.
وَهُوَ القاهِرُ فَوقَ عِبادِهِ وَهُوَ الحَكيمُ الخَبيرُ
wa Huwal qaahiru fawqa ‘ibaadih; wa Huwal Hakeemul Khabeer
(Quran, the Whole Quran, and Nothing But the Quran)
Say, “Whose testimony is the greatest?” Say, “God’s. He is the witness between me and you that this Quran has been inspired to me, to preach it to you and whomever it reaches. Indeed, you bear witness that there are other gods* beside God.” Say, “I do not testify as you do; there is only one god, and I disown your idolatry.”
قُل أَىُّ شَىءٍ أَكبَرُ شَهٰدَةً قُلِ اللَّهُ شَهيدٌ بَينى وَبَينَكُم وَأوحِىَ إِلَىَّ هٰذَا القُرءانُ لِأُنذِرَكُم بِهِ وَمَن بَلَغَ أَئِنَّكُم لَتَشهَدونَ أَنَّ مَعَ اللَّهِ ءالِهَةً أُخرىٰ قُل لا أَشهَدُ قُل إِنَّما هُوَ إِلٰهٌ وٰحِدٌ وَإِنَّنى بَرىءٌ مِمّا تُشرِكونَ
qul ayyu shai’in akbaru shahaadatan qulil laahu shaheedum bainee wa bainakum; wa oohiya ilaiya haazal Qur’aanu li unzirakum bihee wa mam balagh; a’innakum latashhadoona anna ma’al laahi aalihatan ukhraa; qul laaa ashhad; qul innamaa Huwa Ilaahunw Waahidunw wa innanee baree’um mimmaa tushrikoon
*6:19 This verse proclaims the Quran as the only source of religious guidance. Those who uphold additional sources, such as Hadith & Sunna (lies attributed to the Prophet), are defined as idolaters.
Those to whom we have given the scripture recognize this as they recognize their own children. The ones who lose their souls are those who do not believe.
الَّذينَ ءاتَينٰهُمُ الكِتٰبَ يَعرِفونَهُ كَما يَعرِفونَ أَبناءَهُمُ الَّذينَ خَسِروا أَنفُسَهُم فَهُم لا يُؤمِنونَ
allazeena aatainaa humul Kitaaba ya’rifoonahoo kamaa ya’rifoona abnaaa’ahum; allazeena khasirooo anfusahum fahum laa yu’minoon
