18. Saying: "Restore
to me the slaves of Allah (i.e. the Children of Israel).
Verily! I am to you a Messenger worthy of all trust,
19. "And exalt
not (yourselves) against Allah. Truly, I have come to you
with a manifest authority.
20. "And truly,
I seek refuge in my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me (or
call me a sorcerer or kill me).
21. "But if
you believe me not, then keep away from me and leave me alone."
22. (But they were
aggressive), so he [Musa (Moses)] called upon his Lord (saying):
"These are indeed the people who are Mujrimun (disbelievers,
polytheists, sinners, criminals, etc.)."
23. (Allah
said): "Depart you with My slaves by night. Surely, you will
be pursued.
24. "And leave
the sea as it is (quiet and divided). Verily, They are a host
to be drowned."
25. How many of gardens
and springs do they [Fir'aun's (Pharaoh) people] left.
26. And green crops
(fields etc.) and goodly places,
27. And comforts
of life wherein they used to take delight!
28. Thus (it was)!
And We made other people inherit them (i.e. We made the Children
of Israel to inherit the kingdom of Egypt).
29. And the heavens
and the earth wept not for them , nor were
they given a respite.
30. And indeed We
saved the Children of Israel from the humiliating torment,
31. From Fir'aun
(Pharaoh); Verily! He was arrogant and was of the Musrifun
(those who transgress beyond bound in spending and other things
and commit great sins).
32. And We chose
them (the Children of Israel) above the 'Alamin (mankind,
and jinns) [during the time of Musa (Moses)] with knowledge,
33. And granted them
signs in which there was a plain trial.
34. Verily, these
(Quraish) people are saying:
35. "There is
nothing but our first death, and we shall not be resurrected.
36. "Then bring
back our fore-fathers, if you speak the truth!"
37. Are they better
or the people of Tubba' and those before them? We destroyed them
because they were indeed Mujrimun (disbelievers,
polytheists, sinners, criminals, etc.).
38. And We created
not the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, for
mere play,
39. We created them
not except with truth (i.e. to examine and test those who are
obedient and those who are disobedient and then reward the obedient
ones and punish the disobedient ones), but most of them know not.
40. Verily, the Day
of Judgement (when Allah will judge between the creatures)
is the time appointed for all of them,
41. The Day when
Maulan (a near relative) cannot avail Maulan (a
near relative) in aught, and no help can they receive,
42. Except him on
whom Allah has Mercy. Verily, He is the All-Mighty, the
Most Merciful.
43. Verily, the tree
of Zaqqum,
44. Will be the food
of the sinners,
45. Like boiling
oil, it will boil in the bellies,
46. Like the boiling
of scalding water.
47. (It will be said)
"Seize him and drag him into the midst of blazing Fire,
48. "Then pour
over his head the torment of boiling water,
49. "Taste you
(this)! Verily, you were (pretending to be) the mighty, the generous!
50. "Verily!
This is that whereof you used to doubt!"
51. Verily! The Muttaqun
(pious - see V.2:2), will be in place of Security (Paradise).
52. Among Gardens
and Springs;
53. Dressed in fine
silk and (also) in thick silk, facing each other,
54. So (it will be),
and We shall marry them to Houris (female
fair ones) with wide, lovely eyes.
55. They will call
therein for every kind of fruit in peace and security;
56. They will never
taste death therein except the first death (of this world), and
He will save them from the torment of the blazing Fire,
57. As a Bounty from
your Lord! That will be the supreme success!
58. Certainly, We
have made this (Qur'an) easy in your tongue, in order that
they may remember.
59. Wait then (O
Muhammad );
Verily, they (too) are waiting.
