Q\u0101f.\nBy the Glorious Qur-\u0101n\n (Thou art God's Apostle).\n2. Bal AAajiboo an jaahum munthirun minhum faqala alkafiroona hatha shay-on AAajeebun\n2. But they wonder that\n There has come to them\n A Warner from among\n Themselves.\n So the Unbelievers say:\n \"This is a wonderful thing!\n3. A-itha mitna wakunna turaban thalika rajAAun baAAeedun\n3. \"What! When we die\n And become dust, (shall we\n Live again?) That is\n A (sort of) Return\n Far (from our understanding).\"\n4. Qad AAalimna ma tanqusu al-ardu minhum waAAindana kitabun hafeethun\n4. We already know\n How much of them\n The earth takes away:\n With Us is a Record\n Guarding (the full account).\n5. Bal kaththaboo bialhaqqi lamma jaahum fahum fee amrin mareejin\n5. But they deny the truth\n When it comes to them:\n So they are in\n A confused state.\n6. Afalam yanthuroo ila alssama-i fawqahum kayfa banaynaha wazayyannaha wama laha min furoojin\n6. Do they not look\n At the sky above them?\u2014\n How We have made it\n And adorned it,\n And there are no\n Flaws in it?\n7. Waal-arda madadnaha waalqayna feeha rawasiya waanbatna feeha min kulli zawjin baheejin\n7. And the earth\u2014\n We have spread it out,\n And set thereon mountains\n Standing firm, and produced\n Therein every kind of\n Beautiful growth (in pairs)\u2014\n8.

And tall (and stately)\n Palm-trees, with shoots\n Of fruit-stalks, piled\n One over another;\u2014\n11. Rizqan lilAAibadi waahyayna bihi baldatan maytan kathalika alkhurooju\n11.\n12.

The Companions of the Wood,\n And the People of Tubba\u2018;\n Each one (of them) rejected\n The apostles, and My warning\n Was duly fulfilled (in them).\n15. AfaAAayeena bialkhalqi al-awwali bal hum fee labsin min khalqin jadeedin\n15. Were We then weary\n With the first Creation,\n That they should be\n In confused doubt\n About a new Creation?","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra L.: Q\u0101f.: Section 1 (1-15)","type":"page"}
