-
Nun. By the Pen and the (Record) which (men) write,-
-
Thou art not, by the Grace of thy Lord, mad or possessed.
-
Nay, verily for thee is a Reward unfailing:
-
And thou (standest) on an exalted standard of character.
-
Soon wilt thou see, and they will see,
-
Which of you is afflicted with madness.
-
Verily it is thy Lord that knoweth best, which (among men) hath strayed from His Path: and He knoweth best those who receive (true) Guidance.
-
So hearken not to those who deny (the Truth).
-
Their desire is that thou shouldst be pliant: so would they be pliant.
-
Heed not the type of despicable men,- ready with oaths,
-
A slanderer, going about with calumnies,
-
(Habitually) hindering (all) good, transgressing beyond bounds, deep in sin,
-
Violent (and cruel),- with all that, base-born,-
-
Because he possesses wealth and (numerous) sons.
-
When to him are rehearsed Our Signs, "Tales of the ancients", he cries!
-
Soon shall We brand (the beast) on the snout!
-
Verily We have tried them as We tried the People of the Garden, when they resolved to gather the fruits of the (garden) in the morning.
-
But made no reservation, ("If it be Allah´s Will").
-
Then there came on the (garden) a visitation from thy Lord, (which swept away) all around, while they were asleep.
-
So the (garden) became, by the morning, like a dark and desolate spot, (whose fruit had been gathered).
-
As the morning broke, they called out, one to another,-
-
"Go ye to your tilth (betimes) in the morning, if ye would gather the fruits."
-
So they departed, conversing in secret low tones, (saying)-
-
"Let not a single indigent person break in upon you into the (garden) this day."
-
And they opened the morning, strong in an (unjust) resolve.
-
But when they saw the (garden), they said: "We have surely lost our way:
-
"Indeed we are shut out (of the fruits of our labour)!"
-
Said one of them, more just (than the rest): "Did I not say to you, ´Why not glorify (Allah)?´"
-
They said: "Glory to our Lord! Verily we have been doing wrong!"
-
Then they turned, one against another, in reproach.
-
They said: "Alas for us! We have indeed transgressed!
-
"It may be that our Lord will give us in exchange a better (garden) than this: for we do turn to Him (in repentance)!"
-
Such is the Punishment (in this life); but greater is the Punishment in the Hereafter,- if only they knew!
-
Verily, for the Righteous, are Gardens of Delight, in the Presence of their Lord.
-
Shall We then treat the People of Faith like the People of Sin?
-
What is the matter with you? How judge ye?
-
Or have ye a book through which ye learn-
-
That ye shall have, through it whatever ye choose?
-
Or have ye Covenants with Us to oath, reaching to the Day of Judgment, (providing) that ye shall have whatever ye shall demand?
-
Ask thou of them, which of them will stand surety for that!
-
Or have they some "Partners" (in Allahhead)? Then let them produce their "partners", if they are truthful!
-
The Day that the shin shall be laid bare, and they shall be summoned to bow in adoration, but they shall not be able,-
-
Their eyes will be cast down,- ignominy will cover them; seeing that they had been summoned aforetime to bow in adoration, while they were whole, (and had refused).
-
Then leave Me alone with such as reject this Message: by degrees shall We punish them from directions they perceive not.
-
A (long) respite will I grant them: truly powerful is My Plan.
-
Or is it that thou dost ask them for a reward, so that they are burdened with a load of debt?-
-
Or that the Unseen is in their hands, so that they can write it down?
-
So wait with patience for the Command of thy Lord, and be not like the Companion of the Fish,- when he cried out in agony.
-
Had not Grace from his Lord reached him, he would indeed have been cast off on the naked shore, in disgrace.
-
Thus did his Lord choose him and make him of the Company of the Righteous.
-
And the Unbelievers would almost trip thee up with their eyes when they hear the Message; and they say: "Surely he is possessed!"
-
But it is nothing less than a Message to all the worlds.
