Qul a-innakum latakfuroona biallathee khalaqa al-arda fee yawmayni watajAAaloona lahu andadan thalika rabbu alAAalameena\n9. Say: Is it that ye\n Deny Him Who created\n The earth in two Days?\n And do ye join equals\n With Him? He is\n The Lord of (all)\n The Worlds.\n10. WajaAAala feeha rawasiya min fawqiha wabaraka feeha waqaddara feeha aqwataha fee arbaAAati ayyamin sawaan lilssa-ileena\n10. He set on the (earth),\n Mountains standing firm,\n High above it,\n And bestowed blessings on\n The earth, and measured therein\n All things to give them\n Nourishment in due proportion,\n In four Days, in accordance\n With (the needs of)\n Those who seek (sustenance).\n11. Thumma istawa ila alssama-i wahiya dukhanun faqala laha walil-ardi i/tiya tawAAan aw karhan qalata atayna ta-iAAeena\n11. Moreover He comprehended\n In His design the sky,\n And it had been (as) smoke:\n He said to it\n And to the earth:\n \"Come ye together,\n Willingly or unwillingly.\"\n They said: \"We do come\n (Together), in willing obedience.\"\n12. Faqadahunna sabAAa samawatin fee yawmayni waawha fee kulli sama-in amraha wazayyanna alssamaa alddunya bimasabeeha wahifthan thalika taqdeeru alAAazeezi alAAaleemi\n12. So he completed them\n As seven firmaments\nIn two Days, and He\n Assigned to each heaven\n Its duty and command.\n And We adorned\n The lower heaven\n With lights, and (provided it)\n With guard. Such\n Is the Decree of (Him)\n The Exalted in Might,\n Full of knowledge.\n13. Fa-in aAAradoo fuqul anthartukum saAAiqatan mithla saAAiqati AAadin wathamooda\n13. But if they turn away,\n Say thou: \"I have warned\n You of a stunning Punishment\n (As of thunder and lightning)\n Like that which (overtook)\n The \u2018\u0100d and the Tham\u016bd!\"\n14. Ith jaat-humu alrrusulu min bayni aydeehim wamin khalfihim alla taAAbudoo illa Allaha qaloo law shaa rabbuna laanzala mala-ikatan fa-inna bima orsiltum bihi kafiroona\n14. Behold, the apostles came\n To them, from before them\n And behind them, (preaching):\n \"Serve none but God.\"\n They said, \"If our Lord\n Had so pleased, He would\nCertainly have sent down angels\n (To preach): now we reject\n Your mission (altogether).\"\n15. Faamma AAadun faistakbaroo fee al-ardi bighayri alhaqqi waqaloo man ashaddu minna quwwatan awa lam yaraw anna Allaha allathee khalaqahum huwa ashaddu minhum quwwatan wakanoo bi-ayatina yajhadoona\n15. Now the \u2018\u0100d behaved\n Arrogantly through the land,\n Against (all) truth and reason,\n And said: \"Who is superior\n To us in strength?\" What!\n Did they not see that\n God, Who created them,\n Was superior to them\n In strength? But they\n Continued to reject Our Signs!\n16. Faarsalna AAalayhim reehan sarsaran fee ayyamin nahisatin linutheeqahum AAathaba alkhizyi fee alhayati alddunya walaAAathabu al-akhirati akhza wahum la yunsaroona\n16. So We sent against them\n A furious Wind through days\n Of disaster, that We might\n Give them a taste\n Of a Penalty of humiliation\n In this Life; but the Penalty\n Of a Hereafter will be\n More humiliating still:\n And they will find\n No help.\n17. Waamma thamoodu fahadaynahum faistahabboo alAAama AAala alhuda faakhathat-hum saAAiqatu alAAathabi alhooni bima kanoo yaksiboona\n17. As to the Tham\u016bd,\n We gave them guidance,\n But they preferred blindness\n (Of heart) to Guidance:\n So the stunning Punishment\n Of humiliation seized them,\n Because of what they had earned.\n18. Wanajjayna allatheena amanoo wakanoo yattaqoona\n18. But We delivered those\n Who believed and practised righteousness.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XLI.: \u1e24\u0101-m\u012bm (Abbreviated Letters), or \u1e24\u0101-M\u012bm Sajda, or Fu\u1e63\u1e63ilat: Section 2 (9-18)","type":"page"}
