Wa-itha athaqna alnnasa rahmatan min baAAdi darraa massat-hum itha lahum makrun fee ayatina quli Allahu asraAAu makran inna rusulana yaktuboona ma tamkuroona\n21. When We make mankind\n Taste of some mercy after\n Adversity hath touched them,\n Behold! they take to plotting\n Against Our Signs! Say:\n \"Swifter to plan is God!\"\n Verily, Our messengers record\n All the plots that ye make!\n22. Huwa allathee yusayyirukum fee albarri waalbahri hatta itha kuntum fee alfulki wajarayna bihim bireehin tayyibatin wafarihoo biha jaat-ha reehun AAasifun wajaahumu almawju min kulli makanin wathannoo annahum oheeta bihim daAAawoo Allaha mukhliseena lahu alddeena la-in anjaytana min hathihi lanakoonanna mina alshshakireena\n22. He it is who enableth you\n To traverse through land\n And sea; so that ye even board\n Ships;\u2014they sail with them\n With a favourable wind,\n And they rejoice thereat;\n Then comes a stormy wind\n And the waves come to them\n From all sides, and they think\n They are being overwhelmed:\n They cry unto God, sincerely\n Offering (their) duty unto Him,\n Saying, \"If Thou dost deliver us\n From this, we shall truly\nShow our gratitude!\"\n23. Falamma anjahum itha hum yabghoona fee al-ardi bighayri alhaqqi ya ayyuha alnnasu innama baghyukum AAala anfusikum mataAAa alhayati alddunya thumma ilayna marjiAAukum fanunabbi-okum bima kuntum taAAmaloona\n23. But when he delivereth them,\n Behold! they transgress\n Insolently through the earth\n In defiance of right!\n O mankind! your insolence\n Is against your own souls,\u2014\n An enjoyment of the life\n Of the Present: in the end,\n To Us is your return,\n And We shall show you\n The truth of all that ye did.\n24. Innama mathalu alhayati alddunya kama-in anzalnahu mina alssama-i faikhtalata bihi nabatu al-ardi mimma ya/kulu alnnasu waal-anAAamu hatta itha akhathati al-ardu zukhrufaha waizzayyanat wathanna ahluha annahum qadiroona AAalayha ataha amruna laylan aw naharan fajaAAalnaha haseedan kaan lam taghna bial-amsi kathalika nufassilu al-ayati liqawmin yatafakkaroona\n24. The likeness of the life\n Of the Present is\n As the rain which We\n Send down from the skies:\n By its mingling arises\n The produce of the earth\u2014\n Which provides food\n For men and animals:\n (It grows) till the earth\n Is clad with its golden\n Ornaments and is decked out\n (In beauty): the people to whom\n It belongs think they have\n All powers of disposal over it:\n There reaches it Our command\n By night or by day,\n And We make it\n Like a harvest clean-mown,\n As if it had not flourished\nOnly the day before!\n Thus do We explain\n The Signs in detail\n For those who reflect.\n25. WaAllahu yadAAoo ila dari alssalami wayahdee man yashao ila siratin mustaqeemin\n25. But God doth call\n To the Home of Peace:\n He doth guide whom He pleaseth\n To a Way that is straight.\n26. Lillatheena ahsanoo alhusna waziyadatun wala yarhaqu wujoohahum qatarun wala thillatun ola-ika as-habu aljannati hum feeha khalidoona\n26. To those who do right\n Is a goodly (reward)\u2014\n Yea, more (than in measure)!\n No darkness nor shame\n Shall cover their faces!\n They are Companions of the Garden;\n They will abide therein\n (For aye)!\n27. Waallatheena kasaboo alssayyi-ati jazao sayyi-atin bimithliha watarhaquhum thillatun ma lahum mina Allahi min AAasimin kaannama oghshiyat wujoohuhum qitaAAan mina allayli muthliman ola-ika as-habu alnnari hum feeha khalidoona\n27. But those who have earned\n Evil will have a reward\n Of like evil: ignominy\n Will cover their (faces):\n No defender will they have\n From (the wrath of) God:\n Their faces will be covered,\n As it were, with pieces\n From the depth of the darkness\n Of Night: they are Companions\nOf the Fire: they will\n Abide therein (for aye)!\n28. Wayawma nahshuruhum jameeAAan thumma naqoolu lillatheena ashrakoo makanakum antum washurakaokum fazayyalna baynahum waqala shurakaohum ma kuntum iyyana taAAbudoona\n28. One Day shall We gather them\n All together. Then shall We say\n To those who joined gods (with Us):\n \"To your place! ye and those\n Ye joined as \"partners\".\"\n We shall separate them,\n And their \"partners\" shall say:\n \"It was not us\n That ye worshipped!\n29. Fakafa biAllahi shaheedan baynana wabaynakum in kunna AAan AAibadatikum laghafileena\n29. \"Enough is God for a witness\n Between us and you: we\n Certainly knew nothing\n Of your worship of us!\"\n30. Hunalika tabloo kullu nafsin ma aslafat waruddoo ila Allahi mawlahumu alhaqqi wadalla AAanhum ma kanoo yaftaroona\n30. There will every soul prove\n (The fruits of) the deeds\n It sent before : they will\n Be brought back to God\n Their rightful Lord,\n And their invented falsehoods\n Will leave them in the lurch.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra X.: Y\u016bnus, or Jonah.: Section 3 (21-30)","type":"page"}
