Wahuwa alqahiru fawqa AAibadihi wayursilu AAalaykum hafathatan hatta itha jaa ahadakumu almawtu tawaffat-hu rusuluna wahum la yufarritoona\n61. He is the Irresistible, (watching)\n From above over His worshippers,\n And He sets guardians\n Over you. At length,\n When death approaches\n One of you, Our angels\n Take his soul, and they\n Never fail in their duty.\n62. Thumma ruddoo ila Allahi mawlahumu alhaqqi ala lahu alhukmu wahuwa asraAAu alhasibeena\n62. Then are men returned\n Unto God, their Protector,\n The (only) Reality:\n Is not His the Command?\n And He is the Swiftest\n In taking account.\n63. Qul man yunajjeekum min thulumati albarri waalbahri tadAAoonahu tadarruAAan wakhufyatan la-in anjana min hathihi lanakoonanna mina alshshakireena\n63. Say: \"Who is it\n That delivereth you\n From the dark recesses\n Of land and sea,\n When ye call upon Him\n In humility\nAnd silent terror:\n If He only delivers us\n From these (dangers),\n (We vow) we shall truly\n Show our gratitude?\"\n64. Quli Allahu yunajjeekum minha wamin kulli karbin thumma antum tushrikoona\n64. Say: \"It is God\n That delivereth you\n From these and all (other)\n Distresses: and yet\n Ye worship false gods!\"\n65. Qul huwa alqadiru AAala an yabAAatha AAalaykum AAathaban min fawqikum aw min tahti arjulikum aw yalbisakum shiyaAAan wayutheeqa baAAdakum ba/sa baAAdin onthur kayfa nusarrifu al-ayati laAAallahum yafqahoona\n65. Say: \"He hath power\n To send calamities\n On you, from above\n And below, or to cover\n You with confusion\n In party strife,\n Giving you a taste\n Of mutual vengeance\u2014\n Each from the other.\"\n See how We explain\n The Signs by various (symbols);\n That they may understand.\n66. Wakaththaba bihi qawmuka wahuwa alhaqqu qul lastu AAalaykum biwakeelin\n66. But thy people reject\n This, though it is\n The Truth. Say: \"Not mine\n Is the responsibility\n For arranging your affairs;\n67. Likulli naba-in mustaqarrun wasawfa taAAlamoona\n67. For every Message\n Is a limit of time,\n And soon shall ye\n Know it.\"\n68. Wa-itha raayta allatheena yakhoodoona fee ayatina faaAArid AAanhum hatta yakhoodoo fee hadeethin ghayrihi wa-imma yunsiyannaka alshshaytanu fala taqAAud baAAda alththikra maAAa alqawmi alththalimeena\n68. When thou seest men\n Engaged in vain discourse\n About Our Signs, turn\n Away from them unless\n They turn to a different\n Theme. If Satan ever\n Makes thee forget, then\n After recollection, sit not\n Thou in the company\n Of those who do wrong.\n69. Wama AAala allatheena yattaqoona min hisabihim min shay-in walakin thikra laAAallahum yattaqoona\n69. On their account\n No responsibility\n Falls on the righteous,\n But (their duty)\n Is to remind them,\n That they may (learn\n To) fear God.\n70. Wathari allatheena ittakhathoo deenahum laAAiban walahwan wagharrat-humu alhayatu alddunya wathakkir bihi an tubsala nafsun bima kasabat laysa laha min dooni Allahi waliyyun wala shafeeAAun wa-in taAAdil kulla AAadlin la yu/khath minha ola-ika allatheena obsiloo bima kasaboo lahum sharabun min hameemin waAAathabun aleemun bima kanoo yakfuroona\n70. Leave alone those\n Who take their religion\n To be mere play\n And amusement,\n And are deceived\n By the life of this world.\n But proclaim (to them)\n This (truth): that every soul\n Delivers itself to ruin\n By its own acts:\n It will find for itself\n No protector or intercessor\n Except God: if it offered\n Every ransom, (or\n Reparation), none\n Will be accepted: such is\n (The end of) those who\n Deliver themselves to ruin\n By their own acts:\n They will have for drink\n (Only) boiling water,\nAnd for punishment,\n One most grievous:\n For they persisted\n In rejecting God.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra VI.: An\u2019\u0101m, or Cattle.: Section 8 (61-70)","type":"page"}
