Surah Qaf In the name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate Qaf: By the Glorious Qur’an (Thou art Allah’s Messenger). ( Quran Surah Qaf 50:1 ) But they wonder that there has come to them a Warner from among themselves. So the Unbelievers say: “This is a wonderful thing! ( Quran Surah Qaf 50:2 ) “What! When we die and become dust, (shall we live again?) That is a (sort of) return far (from our understanding).” ( Quran Surah Qaf 50:3 ) We already know how much of them the earth takes away: With Us is a record guarding (the full account). ( Quran 50:4 ) But they deny the Truth when it comes to them: so they are in a confused state. ( Quran 50:5 ) Do they not look at the sky above them?- How We have made it and adorned it, and there are no flaws in it? ( Quran 50:6 ) And the earth- We have spread it out, and set thereon mountains standing firm, and produced therein every kind of beautiful growth (in pairs)- ( Quran 50:7 ) To be observed and commemorated by every devotee turning (to Allah). ( Quran 50:8 ) And We send down from the sky rain charted with blessing, and We produce therewith gardens and Grain for harvests; ( Quran 50:9 ) And tall (and stately) palm-trees, with shoots of fruit-stalks, piled one over another;- ( Quran 50:10 ) As sustenance for (Allah’s) Servants;- and We give (new) life therewith to land that is dead: Thus will be the Resurrection. ( Quran 50:11 ) Before them was denied (the Hereafter) by the People of Noah, the Companions of the Rass, the Thamud, ( Quran 50:12 ) The ‘Ad, Pharaoh, the brethren of Lut, ( Quran 50:13 ) The Companions of the Wood, and the People of Tubba’; each one (of them) rejected the messengers, and My warning was duly fulfilled (in them). ( Quran 50:14 ) Were We then weary with the first Creation, that they should be in confused doubt about a new Creation? ( Quran 50:15 ) It was We Who created man, and We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him than (his) jugular vein. ( Quran 50:16 ) Behold, two (guardian angels) appointed to learn (his doings) learn (and noted them), one sitting on the right and one on the left. ( Quran 50:17 ) Not a word does he utter but there is a sentinel by him, ready (to note it). ( Quran 50:18 ) And the stupor of death will bring Truth (before his eyes): “This was the thing which thou wast trying to escape!” ( Quran 50:19 ) And the Trumpet shall be blown: that will be the Day whereof Warning (had been given). ( Quran 50:20 ) And there will come forth every soul: with each will be an (angel) to drive, and an (angel) to bear witness. ( Quran 50:21 ) (It will be said:) “Thou wast heedless of this; now have We removed thy veil, and sharp is thy sight this Day!” ( Quran 50:22 ) And his Companion will say: “Here is (his Record) ready with me!” ( Quran 50:23 ) (The sentence will be:) “Throw, throw into Hell every contumacious Rejecter (of Allah)!- ( Quran 50:24 ) “Who forbade what was good, transgressed all bounds, cast doubts and suspicions; ( Quran 50:25 ) “Who set up another god beside Allah: Throw him into a severe penalty.” ( Quran 50:26 ) His Companion will say: “Our Lord! I did not make him transgress, but he was (himself) far astray.” ( Quran 50:27 ) He will say: “Dispute not with each other in My Presence: I had already in advance sent you Warning. ( Quran 50:28 ) “The Word changes not before Me, and I do not the least injustice to My Servants.” ( Quran 50:29 ) One Day We will ask Hell, “Art thou filled to the full?” It will say, “Are there any more (to come)?” ( Quran 50:30 ) And the Garden will be brought nigh to the Righteous,- no more a thing distant. ( Quran 50:31 ) (A voice will say:) “This is what was promised for you,- for every one who turned (to Allah) in sincere repentance, who kept (His Law), ( Quran 50:32 ) “Who feared (Allah) Most Gracious Unseen, and brought a heart turned in devotion (to Him): ( Quran 50:33 ) “Enter ye therein in Peace and Security; this is a Day of Eternal Life!” ( Quran 50:34 ) There will be for them therein all that they wish,- and more besides in Our Presence. ( Quran 50:35 ) But how many generations before them did We destroy (for their sins),- stronger in power than they? Then did they wander through the land: was there any place of escape (for them)? ( Quran 50:36 ) Verily in this is a Message for any that has a heart and understanding or who gives ear and earnestly witnesses (the truth). ( Quran 50:37 ) We created the heavens and the earth and all between them in Six Days, nor did any sense of weariness touch Us. ( Quran 50:38 ) Bear, then, with patience, all that they say, and celebrate the praises of thy Lord, before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting. ( Quran 50:39 ) And during part of the night, (also,) celebrate His praises, and (so likewise) after the postures of adoration. ( Quran 50:40 ) And listen for the Day when the Caller will call out from a place quiet near,- ( Quran 50:41 ) The Day when they will hear a (mighty) Blast in (very) truth: that will be the Day of Resurrection. ( Quran 50:42 ) Verily it is We Who give Life and Death; and to Us is the Final Goal- ( Quran 50:43 ) The Day when the Earth will be rent asunder, from (men) hurrying out: that will be a gathering together,- quite easy for Us. ( Quran 50:44 ) We know best what they say; and thou art not one to overawe them by force. So admonish with the Qur’an such as fear My Warning! ( Quran 50:45 ) SHARE THIS: Like
