SURAH
AS-SAJDA
Allah in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful.
1. Alif Lam Mim.
2. The sending down of the Book undoubtedly is from the
Lord of the worlds.
3. What they say, 'that it has been fabricated by him? Nay,
it is the truth from your Lord that you may warn such people
to whom no warner came before you that haply they may get the
way.
4. Allah is, He Who has made heavens and earth and whatever
is in between them in six days, then He seated Himself on the
throne. You heave neither supporter nor intercessor leaving
Him. Do you not then reflect?
5. He plans the affairs from the heaven to the earth, then
it will return to Him in a day whose measure is a thousand years
in your counting.
6. He it is, the knower of every hidden and apparent Honourable,
Merciful.
7. He, Who whatever He made, made best, and He began the
creation of man from the clay.
8. Then He made his progeny from an extract of valueless
water.
9. Then He set him right and breathed into him of His spirit
and gave to you ear, and eyes and heart. What a little gratitude
you acknowledge?
10. And they said' 'what! When we shall be merged in the
earth, shall we be made a new? Nay! They even deny the presence
before their Lord.
11. Say you, 'the angel of death who has been appointed
over you causes you to die, then you shall be returned to your
Lord'.
12. And if you could see when the culprits will be hanging
their heads before their Lord, saying, `O our Lord! now we have
seen and have heard, send us back again that we may do good,
we are convinced now'.
13. And had We wished, We would have given to every soul
its guidance, but My word has been already established that
I shall necessarily fill the Hell with Jinn and men altogether.
14. Now taste you, for you forgot the meeting of this your
day, We have left you, now taste the lasting torment the recompense
of your doing.
15. Those only believe in Our signs, who when they are reminded
of them, fall down prostrate and praising their Lord speak His
Hollowness and they are not proud. [^] (SAJDA) 9.
16. Their sides keep away from beds and they call upon their
Lord in fear and hope and spend in charity out of what We have
provided them.
17. And no soul knows what joy of eyes has been kept hidden
for them, the recompense of their doings.
18. Will then he who is a believer be like him who is disobedient,
they are not equal?
19. As to those who have believed and have done good deeds
for them are gardens for abiding, an entertainment for their
doings.
20. And as for those who are disobedient, their destination
is the Fire. Whenever they will wish to come out from there,
they will be returned back into the same and it will be said
to them, Taste the torment of this Fire which you used to belie'.
21. And surely, We will make them taste some of the nearer
torments before the great torment, so that one who sees it may
hope that just now they will turn back repenting.
22. And who is more unjust than he who has been admonished
by the signs of his Lord and then turned away his face from
them? Undoubtedly We are to take revenge from the culprits.
23. And undoubtedly, We bestowed Book to Musa, you therefore
doubt not about meeting him and We made it a guidance for the
children of Israel.
24. And We appointed from amongst them some leaders that
they guide by Our command, while they themselves endured patiently
and they were convinced of Our signs.
25. Undoubtedly, your Lord shall decide between them on
the Day of Judgement concerning that in which they used to differ.
26. And have they not been guided by this that We have already
destroyed many generations before them in whose dwellings, they
are today walking about? Undoubtedly in it are signs. Do then
they hear not?
27. And do they not see that We send water toward dry land,
and produce thereby crops of which their cattle and they themselves
eat? Do then they see not?
28. And they say, 'when shall be this decision if you are
truthful'?
29. Say you, 'on the Day of Judgement the believing of infidels
shall not avail them and nor will they get time.
30. Therefore turn away your face from them and wait, undoubtedly;
they are also to wait.
