O thou wrapped up\n (In a mantle)!\n2. Arise and deliver thy warning!\n3. And thy Lord\n Do thou magnify!\n4. And thy garments\n Keep free from stain!\n5. And all abomination shun!\n6. Nor expect, in giving,\n Any increase (for thyself)!\n7. But, for thy Lord's (Cause),\n Be patient and constant!\n8. Fa-itha nuqira fee alnnaqoori\n8. Finally, when the trumpet\n Is sounded,\n9. Fathalika yawma-ithin yawmun AAaseerun\n9. That will be\u2014that Day\u2014\n A Day of Distress,\u2014\n10. AAala alkafireena ghayru yaseerin\n10. Far from easy\n For those without Faith.\n11. Tharnee waman khalaqtu waheedan\n11. Leave Me alone, (to deal)\n With the (creature) whom\n I created (bare and) alone!\u2014\n12. WajaAAaltu lahu malan mamdoodan\n12. To whom I granted\n Resources in abundance,\n13. And sons to be\n By his side!\u2014\n14. To whom I made\n (Life) smooth and comfortable!\n15. Yet is he greedy\u2014\n That I should add\n (Yet more);\u2014\n16. Kalla innahu kana li-ayatina AAaneedan\n16. By no means!\n For to Our Signs\n He has been refractory!\n17. Soon will I visit him\n With a mount of calamities!\n18. For he thought\n And he plotted;\u2014\n19. And woe to him!\n How he plotted!\u2014\n20. Thumma qutila kayfa qaddara\n20. Yea, woe to him:\n How he plotted!\u2014\n21. Then he looked round;\n22. Then he frowned\n And he scowled;\n23. Then he turned back\n And was haughty;\n24. Faqala in hatha illa sihrun yu/tharu\n24. Then said he:\n \"This is nothing but magic,\n Derived from of old;\n25. In hatha illa qawlu albashari\n25. \"This is nothing but\n The word of a mortal!\"\n26. Soon will I\n Cast him into Hell-Fire!\n27. And what will explain\n To thee what Hell-Fire is?\n28. Naught doth it permit\n To endure, and naught\n Doth it leave alone!\u2014\n29. Darkening and changing\n The colour of man!\n30. AAalayha tisAAata AAashara\n30. Over it are Nineteen.\n31. Wama jaAAalna as-haba alnnari illa mala-ikatan wama jaAAalna AAiddatahum illa fitnatan lillatheena kafaroo liyastayqina allatheena ootoo alkitaba wayazdada allatheena amanoo eemanan wala yartaba allatheena ootoo alkitaba waalmu/minoona waliyaqoola allatheena fee quloobihim maradun waalkafiroona matha arada Allahu bihatha mathalan kathalika yudillu Allahu man yashao wayahdee man yashao wama yaAAlamu junooda rabbika illa huwa wama hiya illa thikra lilbashari\n31. And We have set none\n But angels as guardians\n Of the Fire; and We\n Have fixed their number\nOnly as a trial\n For Unbelievers,\u2014in order\n That the People of the Book\n May arrive at certainty,\n And the Believers may increase\n In Faith,\u2014and that no doubts\n May be left for the People\n Of the Book and the Believers,\n And that those in whose hearts\n Is a disease and the Unbelievers\n May say, \"What symbol\n Doth God intend by this?\n Thus doth God leave to stray\n Whom He pleaseth, and guide\n Whom He pleaseth: and none\n Can know the forces\n Of thy Lord, except He.\n And this is no other than\n A warning to mankind.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra LXXIV.: Muddath&l...","type":"page"}
