Waallatheena kaththaboo bi-ayatina sanastadrijuhum min haythu la yaAAlamoona\n182. Those who reject Our Signs,\n We shall gradually visit\n With punishment, in ways\n They perceive not;\n183. Waomlee lahum inna kaydee mateenun\n183. Respite will I grant\n Unto them: for My scheme\n Is strong (and unfailing).\n184. Awa lam yatafakkaroo ma bisahibihim min jinnatin in huwa illa natheerun mubeenun\n184. Do they not reflect?\n Their Companion is not seized\nWith madness: he is but\n A perspicuous warner.\n185. Awalam yanthuroo fee malakooti alssamawati waal-ardi wama khalaqa Allahu min shay-in waan AAasa an yakoona qadi iqtaraba ajaluhum fabi-ayyi hadeethin baAAdahu yu/minoona\n185. Do they see nothing\n In the government of the heavens\n And the earth and all\n That God hath created?\n (Do they not see) that\n It may well be that\n Their term is nigh\n Drawing to an end?\n In what Message after this\n Will they then believe?\n186. Man yudlili Allahu fala hadiya lahu wayatharuhum fee tughyanihim yaAAmahoona\n186. To such as God rejects\n From His guidance, there can be\n No guide: He will\n Leave them in their trespasses,\n Wandering in distraction.\n187. Yas-aloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha qul innama AAilmuha AAinda rabbee la yujalleeha liwaqtiha illa huwa thaqulat fee alssamawati waal-ardi la ta/teekum illa baghtatan yas-aloonaka kaannaka hafiyyun AAanha qul innama AAilmuha AAinda Allahi walakinna akthara alnnasi la yaAAlamoona\n187. Whey ask thee about\n The (final) Hour\u2014when\n Will be its appointed time?\n Say: \"The knowledge thereof\n Is with my Lord (alone):\n None but He can reveal\n As to when it will occur.\n Heavy were its burden through\n The heavens and the earth.\n Only, all of a sudden\n Will it come to you.\"\n They ask thee as if thou\nWert eager in search thereof:\n Say: \"The knowledge thereof\n Is with God (alone),\n But most men know not.\"\n188. Qul la amliku linafsee nafAAan wala darran illa ma shaa Allahu walaw kuntu aAAlamu alghayba laistakthartu mina alkhayri wama massaniya alssoo-o in ana illa natheerun wabasheerun liqawmin yu/minoona\n188. Say: \"I have no power\n Over any good or harm\n To myself except as God\n Willeth. If I had knowledge\n Of the unseen, I should have\n Multiplied all good, and no evil\n Should have touched me:\n I am but a warner,\n And a bringer of glad tidings\n To those who have faith.\"","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra VII.: A\u2019r\u0101f, or the Heights: Section 23 (182-188)","type":"page"}
