Suroh Al A'raf Verses 189 - 2016
- He it is Who did create you from a single soul, and therefrom did make his mate that he might take rest in her. And when he covered her she bore a light burden, and she passed (unnoticed) with it, but when it became heavy they cried unto Allah, their Lord, saying: If thou givest unto us aright we shall be of the thankful.
- But when He gave unto them aright, they ascribed unto Him partners in respect of that which He had given them. High is He Exalted above all that they associate (with Him).
- Attribute they as partners to Allah those who created naught, but are themselves created,
- And cannot give them help, nor can they help themselves?
- And if ye call them to the Guidance, they follow you not. Whether ye call them or are silent is all one for you.
- Lo! those on whom ye call beside Allah are slaves like unto you. Call on them now, and let them answer you, if ye are truthful!
- Have they feet wherewith they walk, or have they hands wherewith they hold, or have they eyes wherewith they see, or have they ears wherewith they hear? Say: Call upon your (so-called) partners (of Allah), and then contrive against me, spare me not!
- Lo! my Protecting Friend is Allah Who revealeth the Scripture. He befriendeth the righteous.
- They on whom ye call beside Him have no power to help you, nor can they help you, nor can they help themselves.
- And if ye (Muslims) call them to the guidance they hear not; and thou (Muhammad) seest them looking toward thee, but they see not.
- Keep to forgiveness (O Muhammad), and enjoin kindness, and turn away from the ignorant.
- And if a slander from the devil wound thee, then seek refuge in Allah. Lo! He is Hearer, Knower.
- Lo! those who ward off (evil), when a glamour from the devil troubleth them, they do but remember (Allah’s Guidance) and behold them seers!
- Their brethren plunge them further into error and cease not.
- And when thou bringest not a verse for them they say: Why hast thou not chosen it? Say: I follow only that which is inspired in me from my Lord. This (Qur’an) is insight from your Lord, and a guidance and a mercy for a people that believe.
- And when the Qur’an is recited, give ear to it and pay heed, that ye may obtain mercy.
- And do thou (O Muhammad) remember thy Lord within thyself humbly and with awe, below thy breath, at morn and evening. And be not thou of the neglectful.
- Lo! those who are with thy Lord are not too proud to do Him service, but they praise Him and prostrate before Him.
