Surah Al-Ḥijr - SOLTLANE - 10 minutes read


Surah Al-Ḥijr In The Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur’an. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:1 ) Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:2 ) Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:3 ) And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:4 ) No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:5 ) And they say,”O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:6 ) Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful?” ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:7 ) We do not send down the angels except with truth; and the disbelievers would not then be reprieved. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:8 ) Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur’an and indeed, We will be its guardian. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:9 ) And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muhammad], among the sects of the former peoples. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:10 ) And no messenger would come to them except that they ridiculed him. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:11 ) Thus do We insert denial into the hearts of the criminals. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:12 ) They will not believe in it, while there has already occurred the precedent of the former peoples. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:13 ) And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend, ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:14 ) They would say, “Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic.” ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:15 ) And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:16 ) And We have protected it from every devil expelled [from the mercy of Allah ] ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:17 ) Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:18 ) And the earth – We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well-balanced thing. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:19 ) And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers. ( Quran Surah Al-Ḥijr 15:20 ) And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure. ( Quran 15:21 ) And We have sent the fertilizing winds and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers. ( Quran 15:22 ) And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor. ( Quran 15:23 ) And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come]. ( Quran 15:24 ) And indeed, your Lord will gather them; indeed, He is Wise and Knowing. ( Quran 15:25 ) And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud. ( Quran 15:26 ) And the jinn We created before from scorching fire. ( Quran 15:27 ) And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, “I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud. ( Quran 15:28 ) And when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration.” ( Quran 15:29 ) So the angels prostrated – all of them entirely, ( Quran 15:30 ) Except Iblees, he refused to be with those who prostrated. ( Quran 15:31 ) [ Allah ] said, O Iblees, what is [the matter] with you that you are not with those who prostrate?” ( Quran 15:32 ) He said, “Never would I prostrate to a human whom You created out of clay from an altered black mud.” ( Quran 15:33 ) [ Allah ] said, “Then get out of it, for indeed, you are expelled. ( Quran 15:34 ) And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Recompense.” ( Quran 15:35 ) He said,”My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected.” ( Quran 15:36 ) [ Allah ] said, “So indeed, you are of those reprieved ( Quran 15:37 ) Until the Day of the time well-known.” ( Quran 15:38 ) [Iblees] said, “My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all ( Quran 15:39 ) Except, among them, Your chosen servants.” ( Quran 15:40 ) [ Allah ] said, “This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight. ( Quran 15:41 ) Indeed, My servants – no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators. ( Quran 15:42 ) And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all. ( Quran 15:43 ) It has seven gates; for every gate is of them a portion designated.” ( Quran 15:44 ) Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs. ( Quran 15:45 ) [Having been told], “Enter it in peace, safe [and secure].” ( Quran 15:46 ) And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other. ( Quran 15:47 ) No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed. ( Quran 15:48 ) [O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful. ( Quran 15:49 ) And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment. ( Quran 15:50 ) And inform them about the guests of Abraham, ( Quran 15:51 ) When they entered upon him and said, “Peace.” [Abraham] said, “Indeed, we are fearful of you.” ( Quran 15:52 ) [The angels] said, “Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy.” ( Quran 15:53 ) He said, “Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform?” ( Quran 15:54 ) They said, “We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing.” ( Quran 15:55 ) He said, “And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray?” ( Quran 15:56 ) [Abraham] said, “Then what is your business [here], O messengers?” ( Quran 15:57 ) They said, “Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals, ( Quran 15:58 ) Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all ( Quran 15:59 ) Except his wife.” Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind. ( Quran 15:60 ) And when the messengers came to the family of Lot, ( Quran 15:61 ) He said, “Indeed, you are people unknown.” ( Quran 15:62 ) They said, “But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing, ( Quran 15:63 ) And we have come to you with truth, and indeed, we are truthful. ( Quran 15:64 ) So set out with your family during a portion of the night and follow behind them and let not anyone among you look back and continue on to where you are commanded.” ( Quran 15:65 ) And We conveyed to him [the decree] of that matter: that those [sinners] would be eliminated by early morning. ( Quran 15:66 ) And the people of the city came rejoicing. ( Quran 15:67 ) [Lot] said, “Indeed, these are my guests, so do not shame me. ( Quran 15:68 ) And fear Allah and do not disgrace me.” ( Quran 15:69 ) They said, “Have we not forbidden you from [protecting] people?” ( Quran 15:70 ) [Lot] said, “These are my daughters – if you would be doers [of lawful marriage].” ( Quran 15:71 ) By your life, [O Muhammad], indeed they were, in their intoxication, wandering blindly. ( Quran 15:72 ) So the shriek seized them at sunrise. ( Quran 15:73 ) And We made the highest part [of the city] its lowest and rained upon them stones of hard clay. ( Quran 15:74 ) Indeed in that are signs for those who discern. ( Quran 15:75 ) And indeed, those cities are [situated] on an established road. ( Quran 15:76 ) Indeed in that is a sign for the believers. ( Quran 15:77 ) And the companions of the thicket were [also] wrongdoers. ( Quran 15:78 ) So We took retribution from them, and indeed, both [cities] are on a clear highway. ( Quran 15:79 ) And certainly did the companions of Thamud deny the messengers. ( Quran 15:80 ) And We gave them Our signs, but from them they were turning away. ( Quran 15:81 ) And they used to carve from the mountains, houses, feeling secure. ( Quran 15:82 ) But the shriek seized them at early morning. ( Quran 15:83 ) So nothing availed them [from] what they used to earn. ( Quran 15:84 ) And We have not created the heavens and earth and that between them except in truth. And indeed, the Hour is coming; so forgive with gracious forgiveness. ( Quran 15:85 ) Indeed, your Lord – He is the Knowing Creator. ( Quran 15:86 ) And We have certainly given you, [O Muhammad], seven of the often repeated [verses] and the great Qur’an. ( Quran 15:87 ) Do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [certain] categories of the disbelievers, and do not grieve over them. And lower your wing to the believers ( Quran 15:88 ) And say, “Indeed, I am the clear warner” – ( Quran 15:89 ) Just as We had revealed [scriptures] to the separators ( Quran 15:90 ) Who have made the Qur’an into portions. ( Quran 15:91 ) So by your Lord, We will surely question them all ( Quran 15:92 ) About what they used to do. ( Quran 15:93 ) Then declare what you are commanded and turn away from the polytheists. ( Quran 15:94 ) Indeed, We are sufficient for you against the mockers ( Quran 15:95 ) Who make [equal] with Allah another deity. But they are going to know. ( Quran 15:96 ) And We already know that your breast is constrained by what they say. ( Quran 15:97 ) So exalt [ Allah ] with praise of your Lord and be of those who prostrate [to Him]. ( Quran 15:98 ) And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (death). ( Quran 15:99 ) SHARE THIS:
