021.001

Sahih Int'l: [The time of] their account has approached for the people, while they are in heedlessness turning away.

021.002

Sahih Int'l: No mention comes to them anew from their Lord except that they listen to it while they are at play

021.003

Sahih Int'l: With their hearts distracted. And those who do wrong conceal their private conversation, [saying], “Is this [Prophet] except a human being like you? So would you approach magic while you are aware [of it]?”

021.004

Sahih Int'l: The Prophet said, “My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.”

021.005

Sahih Int'l: But they say, “[The revelation is but] a mixture of false dreams; rather, he has invented it; rather, he is a poet. So let him bring us a sign just as the previous [messengers] were sent [with miracles].”

021.006

Sahih Int'l: Not a [single] city which We destroyed believed before them, so will they believe?

021.007

Sahih Int'l: And We sent not before you, [O Muhammad], except men to whom We revealed [the message], so ask the people of the message if you do not know.

021.008

Sahih Int'l: And We did not make the prophets forms not eating food, nor were they immortal [on earth].

021.009

Sahih Int'l: Then We fulfilled for them the promise, and We saved them and whom We willed and destroyed the transgressors.

021.010

Sahih Int'l: We have certainly sent down to you a Book in which is your mention. Then will you not reason?

021.011

Sahih Int'l: And how many a city which was unjust have We shattered and produced after it another people.

021.012

Sahih Int'l: And when its inhabitants perceived Our punishment, at once they fled from it.

021.013

Sahih Int'l: [Some angels said], “Do not flee but return to where you were given luxury and to your homes — perhaps you will be questioned.”

021.014

Sahih Int'l: They said, “O woe to us! Indeed, we were wrongdoers.”

021.015

Sahih Int'l: And that declaration of theirs did not cease until We made them [as] a harvest [mowed down], extinguished [like a fire].

021.016

Sahih Int'l: And We did not create the heaven and earth and that between them in play.

021.017

Sahih Int'l: Had We intended to take a diversion, We could have taken it from [what is] with Us — if [indeed] We were to do so.

021.018

Sahih Int'l: Rather, We dash the truth upon falsehood, and it destroys it, and thereupon it departs. And for you is destruction from that which you describe.

021.019

Sahih Int'l: To Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those near Him are not prevented by arrogance from His worship, nor do they tire.

021.020

Sahih Int'l: They exalt [Him] night and day [and] do not slacken.

021.021

Sahih Int'l: Or have men taken for themselves gods from the earth who resurrect [the dead]?

021.022

Sahih Int'l: Had there been within the heavens and earth gods besides Allah, they both would have been ruined. So exalted is Allah, Lord of the Throne, above what they describe.

021.023

Sahih Int'l: He is not questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned.

021.024

Sahih Int'l: Or have they taken gods besides Him? Say, [O Muhammad], “Produce your proof. This [Qur’an] is the message for those with me and the message of those before me.” But most of them do not know the truth, so they are turning away.

021.025

Sahih Int'l: And We sent not before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, “There is no deity except Me, so worship Me.”

021.026

Sahih Int'l: And they say, “The Most Merciful has taken a son.” Exalted is He! Rather, they are [but] honored servants.

021.027

Sahih Int'l: They cannot precede Him in word, and they act by His command.

021.028

Sahih Int'l: He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they cannot intercede except on behalf of one whom He approves. And they, from fear of Him, are apprehensive.

021.029

Sahih Int'l: And whoever of them should say, “Indeed, I am a god besides Him”— that one We would recompense with Hell. Thus do We recompense the wrongdoers.

021.030

Sahih Int'l: Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?

021.031

Sahih Int'l: And We placed within the earth firmly set mountains, lest it should shift with them, and We made therein [mountain] passes [as] roads that they might be guided.

021.032

Sahih Int'l: And We made the sky a protected ceiling, but they, from its signs, are turning away.

021.033

Sahih Int'l: And it is He who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon; all [heavenly bodies] in an orbit are swimming.

021.034

Sahih Int'l: And We did not grant to any man before you eternity [on earth]; so if you die — would they be eternal?

021.035

Sahih Int'l: Every soul will taste death. And We test you with evil and with good as trial; and to Us you will be returned.

021.036

Sahih Int'l: And when those who disbelieve see you, [O Muhammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], “Is this the one who insults your gods?” And they are, at the mention of the Most Merciful, disbelievers.

021.037

Sahih Int'l: Man was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not impatiently urge Me.

021.038

Sahih Int'l: And they say, “When is this promise, if you should be truthful?”

021.039

Sahih Int'l: If those who disbelieved but knew the time when they will not avert the Fire from their faces or from their backs and they will not be aided...

021.040

Sahih Int'l: Rather, it will come to them unexpectedly and bewilder them, and they will not be able to repel it, nor will they be reprieved.

021.041

Sahih Int'l: And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by what they used to ridicule.

021.042

Sahih Int'l: Say, “Who can protect you at night or by day from the Most Merciful?” But they are, from the remembrance of their Lord, turning away.

021.043

Sahih Int'l: Or do they have gods to defend them other than Us? They are unable [even] to help themselves, nor can they be protected from Us.

021.044

Sahih Int'l: But, [on the contrary], We have provided good things for these [disbelievers] and their fathers until life was prolonged for them. Then do they not see that We set upon the land, reducing it from its borders? So it is they who will overcome?

021.045

Sahih Int'l: Say, “I only warn you by revelation.” But the deaf do not hear the call when they are warned.

021.046

Sahih Int'l: And if [as much as] a whiff of the punishment of your Lord should touch them, they would surely say, “O woe to us! Indeed, we have been wrongdoers.”

021.047

Sahih Int'l: And We place the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so no soul will be treated unjustly at all. And if there is [even] the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth. And sufficient are We as accountant.

021.048

Sahih Int'l: And We had already given Moses and Aaron the criterion and a light and a reminder for the righteous

021.049

Sahih Int'l: Who fear their Lord unseen, while they are of the Hour apprehensive.

021.050

Sahih Int'l: And this [Qur’an] is a blessed message which We have sent down. Then are you with it unacquainted?

021.051

Sahih Int'l: And We had certainly given Abraham his sound judgment before, and We were of him well-Knowing

021.052

Sahih Int'l: When he said to his father and his people, “What are these statues to which you are devoted?”

021.053

Sahih Int'l: They said, “We found our fathers worshippers of them.”

021.054

Sahih Int'l: He said, “You were certainly, you and your fathers, in manifest error.”

021.055

Sahih Int'l: They said, “Have you come to us with truth, or are you of those who jest?”

021.056

Sahih Int'l: He said, “[No], rather, your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth who created them, and I, to that, am of those who testify.

021.057

Sahih Int'l: And [I swear] by Allah, I will surely plan against your idols after you have turned and gone away.”

021.058

Sahih Int'l: So he made them into fragments, except a large one among them, that they might return to it [and question].

021.059

Sahih Int'l: They said, “Who has done this to our gods? Indeed, he is of the wrongdoers.”

021.060

Sahih Int'l: . They said, “We heard a young man mention them who is called Abraham.”

021.061

Sahih Int'l: They said, “Then bring him before the eyes of the people that they may testify.”

021.062

Sahih Int'l: They said, “Have you done this to our gods, O Abraham?”

021.063

Sahih Int'l: He said, “Rather, this — the largest of them — did it, so ask them, if they should [be able to] speak.”

021.064

Sahih Int'l: So they returned to [blaming] themselves and said [to each other], “Indeed, you are the wrongdoers.”

021.065

Sahih Int'l: Then they reversed themselves, [saying], “You have already known that these do not speak!”

021.066

Sahih Int'l: He said, “Then do you worship instead of Allah that which does not benefit you at all or harm you?

021.067

Sahih Int'l: Uff to you and to what you worship instead of Allah. Then will you not use reason?”

021.068

Sahih Int'l: They said, “Burn him and support your gods — if you are to act.”

021.069

Sahih Int'l: Allah said, “O fire, be coolness and safety upon Abraham.”

021.070

Sahih Int'l: And they intended for him harm, but We made them the greatest losers.

021.071

Sahih Int'l: And We delivered him and Lot to the land which We had blessed for the worlds.

021.072

Sahih Int'l: And We gave him Isaac and Jacob in addition, and all [of them] We made righteous.

021.073

Sahih Int'l: And We made them leaders guiding by Our command. And We inspired to them the doing of good deeds, establishment of prayer, and giving of zakah; and they were worshippers of Us.

021.074

Sahih Int'l: And to Lot We gave judgment and knowledge, and We saved him from the city that was committing wicked deeds. Indeed, they were a people of evil, defiantly disobedient.

021.075

Sahih Int'l: And We admitted him into Our mercy. Indeed, he was of the righteous.

021.076

Sahih Int'l: And [mention] Noah, when he called [to Allah] before [that time], so We responded to him and saved him and his family from the great flood.

021.077

Sahih Int'l: And We saved him from the people who denied Our signs. Indeed, they were a people of evil, so We drowned them, all together.

021.078

Sahih Int'l: And [mention] David and Solomon, when they judged concerning the field —when the sheep of a people overran it [at night], and We were witness to their judgment.

021.079

Sahih Int'l: And We gave understanding of the case to Solomon, and to each [of them] We gave judgment and knowledge. And We subjected the mountains to exalt [Us], along with David and [also] the birds. And We were doing [that].

021.080

Sahih Int'l: And We taught him the fashioning of coats of armor to protect you from your [enemy in] battle. So will you then be grateful?

021.081

Sahih Int'l: And to Solomon [We subjected] the wind, blowing forcefully, proceeding by his command toward the land which We had blessed. And We are ever, of all things, Knowing.

021.082

Sahih Int'l: And of the devils were those who dived for him and did work other than that. And We were of them a guardian.

021.083

Sahih Int'l: And [mention] Job, when he called to his Lord, “Indeed, adversity has touched me, and you are the Most Merciful of the merciful.”

021.084

Sahih Int'l: So We responded to him and removed what afflicted him of adversity. And We gave him [back] his family and the like thereof with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for the worshippers [of Allah].

021.085

Sahih Int'l: And [mention] Ishmael and Idrees and Dhul-Kifl; all were of the patient.

021.086

Sahih Int'l: And We admitted them into Our mercy. Indeed, they were of the righteous.

021.087

Sahih Int'l: And [mention] the man of the fish, when he went off in anger and thought that We would not decree [anything] upon him. And he called out within the darknesses, “There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers.”

021.088

Sahih Int'l: So We responded to him and saved him from the distress. And thus do We save the believers.

021.089

Sahih Int'l: And [mention] Zechariah, when he called to his Lord, “My Lord, do not leave me alone [with no heir], while you are the best of inheritors.”

021.090

Sahih Int'l: So We responded to him, and We gave to him John, and amended for him his wife. Indeed, they used to hasten to good deeds and supplicate Us in hope and fear, and they were to Us humbly submissive.

021.091

Sahih Int'l: And [mention] the one who guarded her chastity, so We blew into her [garment] through Our angel [Gabriel], and We made her and her son a sign for the worlds.

021.092

Sahih Int'l: Indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so worship Me.

021.093

Sahih Int'l: And [yet] they divided their affair among themselves, [but] all to Us will return.

021.094

Sahih Int'l: So whoever does righteous deeds while he is a believer — no denial will there be for his effort, and indeed We, of it, are recorders.

021.095

Sahih Int'l: And there is prohibition upon [the people of] a city which We have destroyed that they will [ever] return

021.096

Sahih Int'l: Until when [the dam of] Gog and Magog has been opened and they, from every elevation, descend

021.097

Sahih Int'l: And [when] the true promise has approached; then suddenly the eyes of those who disbelieved will be staring [in horror, while they say], “O woe to us; we had been unmindful of this; rather, we were wrongdoers.”

021.098

Sahih Int'l: Indeed, you [disbelievers] and what you worship other than Allah are the firewood of Hell. You will be coming to [enter] it.

021.099

Sahih Int'l: Had these [false deities] been [actual] gods, they would not have come to it, but all are eternal therein.

021.100

Sahih Int'l: For them therein is heavy sighing, and they therein will not hear.

021.101

Sahih Int'l: Indeed, those for whom the best [reward] has preceded from Us — they are from it far removed.

021.102

Sahih Int'l: They will not hear its sound, while they are, in that which their souls desire, abiding eternally.

021.103

Sahih Int'l: They will not be grieved by the greatest terror, and the angels will meet them, [saying], “This is your Day which you have been promised” —

021.104

Sahih Int'l: The Day when We will fold the heaven like the folding of a [written] sheet for the records. As We began the first creation, We will repeat it. [That is] a promise binding upon Us. Indeed, We will do it.

021.105

Sahih Int'l: And We have already written in the book [of Psalms] after the [previous] mention that the land [of Paradise] is inherited by My righteous servants.

021.106

Sahih Int'l: Indeed, in this [Qur’an] is notification for a worshipping people.

021.107

Sahih Int'l: And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.

021.108

Sahih Int'l: Say, “It is only revealed to me that your god is but one God; so will you be Muslims [in submission to Him]?”

021.109

Sahih Int'l: But if they turn away, then say, “I have announced to [all of] you equally. And I know not whether near or far is that which you are promised.

021.110

Sahih Int'l: Indeed, He knows what is declared of speech, and He knows what you conceal.

021.111

Sahih Int'l: And I know not; perhaps it is a trial for you and enjoyment for a time.”

021.112

Sahih Int'l: [The Prophet] has said, “My Lord, judge [between us] in truth. And our Lord is the Most Merciful, the one whose help is sought against that which you describe.”
