Surah 16. An-Nahl
125. Invite (mankind, O Muhammad
.to the Way of your Lord (i.e (صلى الله عليه وسلم
Islâm) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine
Revelation and the Qur'an) and fair
preaching, and argue with them in a way that
is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who
has gone astray from His Path, and He is the
Best Aware of those who are guided.
126. And if you punish (your enemy, O
you believers in the Oneness of Allâh), then
punish them with the like of that with which
you were afflicted. But if you endure
patiently, verily, it is better for As-Sâbirûn
(the patient).[1]
127. And
endure you patiently (O
Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), your patience is
not but from Allâh. And grieve not over them
(polytheists and pagans), and be not
distressed because of what they plot.
128. Truly, Allâh is with those who fear
Him (keep their duty unto Him),12 and those
who are Muhsinun (good-doers. See the
footnote of V.9:120).
ادْعُ إِلَى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ
الْحَسَنَةِ وَحَدِ لْهُمْ بِالَّتِى هِىَ أَحْسَنٌ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ
هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهٌِّ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ
بِالْمُهْتَدِينَ
وَإِنْ عَاقَبْتُمْ فَعَاقِبُواْبِمِثْلِ مَاعُوقِبْتُمبِهٌِ
وَلَيِن صَبَرْتُمْ لَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لِلِضَّبِينَ
وَأَصْبِرْ وَمَا صَبْرُكَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ
وَلَاتَكُ فِي ضَيْقٍ مِّمَّا يَمْكُرُونَ

إِنَّاللَّهَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْ وَالَّذِينَ هُم
تُحْسِنُونَ
[1] (V.16:126)
a) The Statement of Allah: "Only those who are patient shall receive their rewards in full,
without reckoning" (V.39:10)
Narrated Abu Musa رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "None is more patient than
Allâh against the harmful saying He hears from the people, they ascribe a son (or offspring)
to Him, yet He gives them health and (supplies them with) provision." (Sahih Al-Bukhari,
Vol. 8, Hadith No. 121)
b) Narrated 'Abdullah رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم divided and distributed
something as he used to do with some of his distributions. A man from the Ansar said, "By
Allâh! in this division the pleasure of Allah has not been intended." I said, "I will definitely
tell this to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم." So I went to him while he was sitting with his
companions and told him of it secretly. That was hard upon the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and
the colour of his face changed, and he became so angry that I wished I had not told him.
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم then said, "Musa (Moses) was harmed with more than this, yet
he remained patient." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadith No. 122)
[2]
(V.16:128) Narrated Abu Hurairah رضى الله عنه :Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "The
deeds of anyone of you will not save you [from the (Hell) Fire]." They said, "Even you (will
not be saved by your deeds), O Allah's Messenger?" He said, "No, even I (will not be
saved) unless and until Allâh bestows His Mercy on me and protects me with His Grace.
Therefore, do good deeds properly, sincerely and moderately, and worship Allâh in the
forenoon and in the afternoon and during a part of the night, and always adopt a middle,
moderate, regular course whereby you will reach your target (Paradise)." (Sahih
Al-Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadith No. 470)

Surah 17. Al-Isrâ'
Sûrat Al-Isrâ'
(The Journey by Night) XVII
In the Name of Allâh
the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
1. Glorified (and Exalted) be He (Allâh)
[above all that (evil) they associate with Him]
صلى الله Who took His slave (Muhammad
, .) for a journey by night from
Al-Masjid-al-Harâm
(at Makkah)
to
Al-Masjid-al-Aqsâ
(in Jerusalem), the
neighbourhood whereof We have blessed, in
order that We might show him (Muhammad
,of Our Ayat (proofs, evidences (صلى الله عليه وسلم
lessons, signs, etc.). Verily, He is the
All-Hearer, the All-Seer 21.
2. And We gave Mûsâ (Moses) the
Scripture and made it a guidance for the
Children of Israel (saying): "Take none other
than Me as (your) Wakil (Protector, Lord or
Disposer of your affairs).
3. "O offspring of those whom We carried
(in the ship) with Nûh (Noah)! Verily, he was
a grateful slave."
4. And We decreed for the Children of
Israel in the Scripture: indeed you would do
mischief in the land twice and you will
become tyrants and extremely arrogant!
5. So, when the promise came for the first
of the two, We sent against you slaves of
Ours given to terrible warfare. They entered
the very innermost parts of your homes. And
it was a promise (completely) fulfilled.

صلى اللّه that he heard Allah's Messenger رضى الله عنهما V.17:1) Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah)
, le saying, "When the people of Quraish did not believe me [i.e. in the story of my Isrå'
- (Night Journey)], I stood up in Al-Hijr and Allâh displayed Jerusalem in front of me, and I
began describing it to them while I was looking at it." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol.5, Hadith
No.226).

Sûrah 17. Al-Isrâ'
ثُمَّرَدَدْنَا لَكُمُ الْكَرَّةَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَأَمْدَدْنَكُمْ
بِأَمْوَلٍ وَبَنِنَ وَجَعَلْنَكُمْ أَكْثَرَ نَفِيًا
إِنْ أَحْسَنْتُمْ أَحْسَنتُمْ لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ وَإِنْ أَسَأْتُ فَلَهَاَ
فَإِذَا جَآءَ وَعْدُ اُلْآَخِرَةِ لِيَسُئُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ
وَلِيَدْ خُلُواْالْمَسْجِدَ كَمَا دَخَلُوهُ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ
وَلِيُنَبِرُواْ مَا عَلَوْاْ تَتْبِيرًا
عَسَى رَبُّكُمْأَنْ يَرْحَمَكُمْ وَإِنْ عُدْتُمْ عُدْنًا وَحَعَلْنَا جَهَمَ
لِلْگفِینَ حَصِیرًاچا
إِنَّ هَذَا الْقُرْءَانَ يَهْدِى لِلِّى هِىَ أَقْوَمُ وَيُبَشِّرُ
اٌلْمُؤْمِنِينَ الَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ الصَّلِحَتِ
أَنََّهُمْ أَجْرًا كَبِيرًا
وَأَنَّ الَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآَخِرَةِ أَعْتَدْ نَالَهُمْ
عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا
١٠
وَيَدْعُ آلْإِنسَنُ بِالشَّرِّدُ عَ هُبِالْخَيْرِ وَكَانَ
اُلْإِنسَنُ عَجُولًا
وَجَعَلْنَا الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ ءَايَنَيْنِّ فَمَحَوْنَآءَايَةَ الَتَلِ
وَجَعَلْنَآءَايَةَ النَّهَارِ مُبْصِرَةً لِتَبْتَغُواْ فَضْلًا
مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَلِتَعْلَمُواْ عَدَدَ السَِّنِينَ وَالْحِسَاب
وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ فَصَلْتَهُتَفْصِيلًا
6. Then We gave you a return of victory over
them. And We helped you with wealth and
children and made you more numerous in
man-power.
7. (And We said): "If you do good, you do
good for your ownselves, and if you do evil
(you do it) against yourselves." Then, when
the second promise came to pass, (We
permitted your enemies) to disgrace your
faces and to enter the mosque (of Jerusalem)
as they had entered it before, and to destroy
with utter destruction all that fell in their
hands.
8. [And We said in the Taurât (Torah)]:
"It may be that your Lord may show mercy
unto you, but if you return (to sins), We shall
return (to Our Punishment). And We have
made Hell a prison for the disbelievers.
9. Verily, this Qur'ân guides to that which
is most just and right and gives glad tidings to
the believers (in the Oneness of Allâh and His
Messenger, Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), who
work deeds of righteousness, that they shall
have a great reward (Paradise).
10. And that those who believe not in the
Hereafter, for them We have prepared a
painful torment (Hell).
11. And man invokes (Allâh) for evil as
he invokes (Allâh) for good and man is ever
hasty [i.e., if he is angry with somebody, he
invokes (saying): "O Allâh! Curse him" and
that one should not do, but one should be
patient].
12. And We have appointed the night and
the day as two Ayât (signs etc.). Then, We
have obliterated the sign of the night (with
darkness) while We have made the sign of the
day illuminating, that you may seek bounty
from your Lord, and that you may know the
number of the years and the reckoning. And
We have explained everything (in detail) with
full explanation.

وَكُلَّ إِنسَنِ أَلْزَمْنَهُ طَِّرَهُ فِ عُنُقِهِ، وَنُخْرِجُ لَهُ.
يَوْمَ الْقِيَمَةِ كِتَبًا يَلْقَتُهُ مَنْشُورًا لـ
اقْرَأْ كِتَبَكَ كَفَى بِنَفْسِكَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَيْكَ حَسِيبًا
مَّنِ آَهْتَدَى فَإِنَّمَا يَهْتَدِى لِنَفْسِهِ، وَمَن ضَلَّ فَإِنَّمَا

وَإِذَا أَرَدْنَا أَنْ تُهْلِكَ فَرْيَةً أَمَرْنَا مُتْرَفِبهَا فَفَسَقُواْفِهَا
فَحَقَّ عَلَيْهَا الْقَوْلُ فَدَ مَّرْنَهَا تَدْمِيرًا
وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا مِنَ الْقُرُونِ مِنْ بَعْدِ نُوْجٌ وَكَفَى بِرِكَ
بِذُنُوبِ عِبَادِهِ، خَبيرًا بَصِيرًا !
مَّن كَانَ يُرِيدُ الْعَاجِلَةَ عَجَّلْنَا لَهُ فِيهَا مَانَشَآءُ لِمَن
تُرِيدُ ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَا لَهُجَهَتَّمَ يَصْلَنِهَا مَذْمُومًا
مَدْحُورًا
وَمَنْ أَرَادَ الْآَخِرَةَ وَسَعَى لَهَا سَعْيَهَا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ
13. And We have fastened every man's
deeds[1]
to his neck, and on the Day of
Resurrection, We shall bring out for him a
book which he will find wide open.
14. (It will be said to him): "Read your
book. You yourself are sufficient as a
reckoner against you this Day."
15. Whoever goes right, then he goes right
only for the benefit of his ownself. And
whoever goes astray, then he goes astray to
his own loss. No one laden with burdens can
bear another's burden. And We never punish
until We have sent a Messenger (to give
warning).
16. And when We decide to destroy a
town (population), We (first) send a definite
order (to obey Allâh and be righteous) to
those among them [or We (first) increase in
number those of its population] who lead a
life of luxury. Then, they transgress therein,
and thus the word (of torment) is justified
against it (them). Then We destroy it with
complete destruction.
17. And how many generations have We
destroyed after Nûh (Noah)! And Sufficient is
your
Lord
as an All-Knower
and
All-Beholder of the sins of His slaves.
18. Whoever desires the quick-passing
(transitory enjoyment of this world), We
readily grant him what We will for whom We
like. Then, afterwards, We have appointed for
him Hell; he will burn therein disgraced and
rejected (- far away from Allâh's Mercy).
19. And whoever desires the Hereafter
and strives for it, with the necessary effort
due for it (i.e. does righteous deeds of Allâh's
[1] (V. 17:13) Narrated Ibn Mas'ud رضى الله عنه :A man asked the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم "What
deeds are the best?" The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said; (1)To perform the (daily compulsory)
Salât (prayers) at their (early) stated fixed times; (2) To be good and dutiful to one's own
parents (3) and to participate in Jihad in Allâh's Cause." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol.9, Hadith
No.625).

We bestow from the Bounties of your Lord.
And the Bounties of your Lord can never be
forbidden.
21. See how We prefer one above another

be greater in degrees and greater in
preferment.
22. Set not up with Allâh any other ilâh
(god), (O man)! (This verse is addressed to
Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم ,but its
implication is general to all mankind), or you
will sit down reproved, forsaken (in the
Hell-fire).
23. And your Lord has decreed that you
worship none but Him. And that you be
dutiful to your parents. If one of them or both
of them attain old age in your life, say not to
them a word of disrespect, nor shout at them
but address them in terms of honour.
24. And lower unto them the wing of
submission and humility through mercy, and
say: "My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy
as they did bring me up when I was young."
25. Your Lord knows best what is in your
inner-selves. If you are righteous, then, verily,
He is Ever Most Forgiving to those who turn
unto Him again and again in obedience, and
in repentance.
26. And give to the kinsman his due and
to the Miskîn" (poor) and to the wayfarer.

Surah 17. Al-Isrâ'
But spend not wastefully (your wealth) in the
manner of a spendthrift. 1(Tafsir At-Tabarî)
27. Verily, the spendthrifts are brothers of
the Shayâtîn (devils), and the Shaitân
(Devil-Satan) is ever ungrateful to his Lord.
صلى الله عليه And if you (O Muhammad .28
,) turn away from them (kindred, poor,
wayfarer whom We have ordered you to give
their rights, but if you have no money at the
time they ask you for it) and you are awaiting
a mercy from your Lord for which you hope,
then, speak unto them a soft, kind word (i.e.
Allâh will give me and I shall give you).
29. And let not your hand be tied (like a
miser) to your neck, nor stretch it forth to its
utmost reach (like a spendthrift), so that you
become blameworthy and in severe poverty.
30. Truly, your Lord enlarges the
provision for whom He wills and straitens
(for whom He wills). Verily, He is Ever
All-Knower, All-Seer of His slaves.
31. And kill not your children for fear of
poverty. We shall provide for them as well as
for you. Surely, the killing of them is a great
sin.
32. And come not near to unlawful sex.
Verily, it is a Fâhishah (i.e. anything that
transgresses its limits: a great sin), and an
evil way (that leads one to Hell unless Allâh
forgives him).
33. And do not kill anyone whose killing
Allâh has forbidden, except for a just cause.
And whoever is
killed wrongfully
(Mazlûman intentionally with hostility and
oppression and not by mistake), We have
given his heir the authority [to demand Qisâs,

forgive, or to take Diyah (blood-money)]. But
let him not exceed limits in the matter of
taking life (i.e he should not kill except the
killer). Verily, he is helped (by the Islâmic
law). [1]
34. And come not near to the orphan's
property except to improve it, until he attains
the age of full strength. And fulfil (every)
covenant. Verily, the covenant, will be
questioned about.
35. And give full measure when you
measure, and weigh with a balance that is
straight. That is good (advantageous) and
better in the end.
36. And follow not (O man i.e., say not, or
do not or witness not) that of which you have
no knowledge. 12] Verily! The hearing, and the
sight, and the heart, of each of those one will
be questioned (by Allâh).
37. And walk not on the earth with conceit
and arrogance. Verily, you can neither rend
nor penetrate the earth, nor can you attain a
stature like the mountains in height.
38. All the bad aspects of these (the above
mentioned things) are hateful to your Lord.
39. This is (part) of Al-Hikmah (wisdom,
good manners and high character) which your
صلى اللّه Lord has revealed to you (O Muhammad
, we). And set not up with Allâh any other ilâh
(god) lest you should be thrown into Hell,
blameworthy and rejected, (from Allâh's
Mercy).
40. Has then your Lord (O pagans of
Makkah!) preferred for you sons, and taken
for Himself

daughters? Verily you indeed utter an awful
saying.
41. And surely, We have explained [Our
Promises, Warnings and (set forth many)
examples] in this Qur'an that they (the
disbelievers) may take heed, but it increases
them in naught save aversion.
42. Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم to
these polytheists, pagans): "If there had been
other âlihah (gods) along with Him as they
assert, then they would certainly have sought
out a way to the Lord of the Throne (seeking
His Pleasures and to be near to Him).
43. Glorified and Exalted be He! High
above (the great falsehood) that they say! (i.e.
forged statements that there are other gods
along with Allâh, but He is Allâh, the One,
the Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures
need. He begets not, nor was He begotten,
and there is none comparable or coequal unto
Him).
44. The seven heavens and the earth and
all that is therein, glorify Him and there is not
a thing but glorifies His Praise. But you
understand not their glorification. Truly, He
is Ever Forbearing, Oft-Forgiving.
صلى الله عليه And when you (Muhammad .45
,) recite the Qur'an, We put between you
and those who believe not in the Hereafter, an
invisible veil[1] (or screen their hearts, so they
hear or understand it not).

(V.17:45) It is said in the Book of Tafsir (Imam Qurtubî) as regards this Verse (17:45):
Narrated Sa'id bin Jubair رضى الله عنه "When the Surah No. 111 (Tabbat Yada) was revealed,
رضى اللّه while Abu Bakr صلى الله عليه وسلم the wife of Abu Lahab came looking for the Prophet
I wish if you get":صلى الله عليه وسلم was sitting beside him. Abu Bakr said to the Prophet ,عنه
صلى الله عليه وسلم aside (or go away) as she is coming to us, she may harm you." The Prophet
said: "There will be a screen set between me and her." So she did not see him. She said to
Abu Bakr: "Your companion is saying poetry against me," Abu Bakr said: "By Allâh, he does
not say poetry." She said: "Do you believe that?" Then she left. Abu Bakr said, "O Allah's
Messenger! She did not see you." The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: "An angel was
screening me from her." [This Hadith is quoted in Musnad Abu Ya'la.]
It is said that if the above Verse (17:45) is recited by a real believer (of Islamic Monotheism) he
will be screened from a disbeliever. (Allah knows better). (Tafsir Al-Qurtubî, Vol.10, Page 269).

54. Your Lord knows you best; if He
wills, He will have mercy on you, or if He
wills, He will punish you. And We have not
sent you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) as a
guardian over them.
55. And your Lord knows best all who are
in the heavens and the earth. And indeed, We
have preferred some of the Prophets above
others, and to Dâwûd (David) We gave the
Zabûr (Psalms).
:(صلى الله عليه وسلم Say (O Muhammad .56
"Call upon those - besides Him - whom
you pretend [to be gods like angels, ‘Îsâ
(Jesus), 'Uzair (Ezra), and others.]. They
have neither the power to remove the
adversity from you nor even to shift it from
you to another person."
57. Those whom they call upon [like 'Îsâ
(Jesus) - son of Maryam (Mary), 'Uzair
(Ezra), angel] desire (for themselves) means
of access to their Lord (Allâh), as to which of
them should be the nearest; and they [‘Îsâ
(Jesus), 'Uzair (Ezra), angels and others]
hope for His Mercy and fear His Torment.
Verily, the Torment of your Lord is
(something) to be afraid of!
58. And there is not a town (population)
but We shall destroy it before the Day of
Resurrection, or punish it with a severe
torment. That is written in the Book (of Our
Decrees)[1]
59. And nothing stops Us from sending
the Ayât (proofs, evidences, signs) but that
the people of old denied them. And We sent
the she-camel to Thamud as a clear sign, but
they did her wrong. And We sent not the
signs except to warn, and to make them afraid
(of destruction).
[1] (V.17:58) It is said by 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud de alta,: "If the people of a town indulge in
illegal sexual intercourse and practise Ribâ (usury of all kinds), Allâh permits its
destruction." (Tafsîr Al- Qurtubî).

60. And (remember) when We told you:
"Verily! Your Lord has encompassed
mankind (i.e. they are in His Grip)." And We
made not the vision which we showed you (O
Muhammad as an actual eye-witness and not
as a dream on the night of Al-Isrâ"11) but a
trial for mankind, and (likewise) the accursed
tree (Zaqqûm, mentioned) in the Qur'ân. We
warn and make them afraid but it only
increases them in naught save great disbelief,
oppression and disobedience to Allâh.
61. And (remember) when We said to the
angels: "Prostrate yourselves unto Adam."
They prostrated themselves except Iblis
(Satan). He said: "Shall I prostrate myself to
one whom You created from clay?"
62. [Iblis (Satan)] said: "See this one
whom You have honoured above me, if You
give me respite (keep me alive) to the Day of
Resurrection, I will surely seize and mislead
his offspring (by sending them astray) all but
a few!"
63. (Allâh) said: "Go, and whosoever of
them follows you, surely Hell will be the
recompense of you (all) - an ample
recompense.
64. "And befool them gradually those
whom you can among them with your voice
(i.e. songs, music, and any other call for
Allâh's disobedience), make assaults on them
with your cavalry and your infantry, share
with them wealth and children (by tempting
them to earn money by illegal ways - usury,
or by comitting illegal sexual intercourse),
and make promises to them." But Satan
promises them nothing but deceit.

believers of Islamic Monotheism) - you
have no authority over
them. And
All-Sufficient is your Lord as a Guardian."

Merciful towards you.

sea, those that you call upon vanish from you
except Him (Allâh Alone). But when He
brings you safe to land, you turn away (from
Him). And man is ever ungrateful[1].
68. Do you then feel secure that He will
not cause a side of the land to swallow you

violent sand-storm? Then, you shall find no
Wakîl (guardian - one to guard you from the

send you back a second time to sea and send
against you a hurricane of wind and drown
you because of your disbelief? Then you will
not find any avenger therein against Us.
70. And indeed We have honoured the
Children of Adam, and We have carried them

At-Tayyibât (lawful good things), and have

conquered. He rode over the (Red) Sea to cross over to Ethiopia, but (as they proceeded),
a heavy stormy wind overtook their boat, and huge waves came to them from all sides, and
they thought that they are encircled therein. The people of the boat said to one another:
"None can save you except Allah (the Only True God of the heavens and earth). So invoke
(call upon) Him (Allâh) (by making your Faith pure for Him Alone and none else) to deliver
you safe (from drowning)." 'Ikrimah said to himself. 'By Allah if none can benefit in the sea
except Allâh (Alone) then no doubt none can benefit over the land except Allâh (Alone). O
Allâh! I promise You that if You delivered me safe from this, I will go and put my hands in
the hands of (Prophet) Muhammad and surely I will find him full of pity, kindness and
mercy.' So they were delivered safe (by Allah), and returned to their sea-shore and came
, صلى الله عليه وسلم out of the sea. 'lkrimah then proceeded to Allah's Messenger, Muhammad
(narrated his story), embraced Islâm (just as he promised Allâh), and became a perfect
Muslim." (Tafsir Ibn Kathir).

of mankind of the day and the night)' (V.17:78)". (Sahih Al-Bukhari , Vol.1, Hadith No. 621).

A). Narrated Ibn 'Umar Luis al gò): "On the Day of Resurrection the people will fall on their
knees and every nation will follow their Prophet and they will say, "O so-and-so! Intercede
(for us with Allah)', till (the right of) of intercession will be given to the Prophet (Muhammad
and that will be the day when Allah will raise him to Maqam Mahmud (a ( صلى الله عليه وسلم
station of praise and glory i.e the hounour of intercession on the Day of Resurrection )".
(Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 6, Hadith No. 242)
B). Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah رضى الله عنهما:Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said,
"Whoever, after listening to the Adhan (call for the prayer) says, 'O Allah, the Lord of this
complete call and of this prayer, which is going to be established! Give Muhammad
Al-Wasîlah and Al-Fadilah* and raise him to Magam Mahmud, which You have promised
him,' will be granted my intercession for him on the Day of Resurrection." (Sahih
Al-Bukhari, Vol.6, Hadith No. 243).
*Al-Wasîlah is the highest position in Paradise which is granted to the Prophet que a lo
, particularly; Al-Fadilah* is the extra degree of honour which is bestowed on him above
all creation.

i.e. Satan or polytheism) has vanished. Surely
Bâtil is ever bound to vanish."
82. And We send down of the Qur'an that
which is a healing and a mercy to those who
believe (in Islâmic Monotheism and act on it),
and it increases the Zâlimun (polytheists and
wrong-doers) nothing but loss.
83. And when We bestow Our Grace on
man (the disbeliever), he turns away and
becomes arrogant (far away from the Right
Path). And when evil touches him, he is in
great despair.
84. Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم to
mankind): "Each one does according to
Shakilatihi (i.e. his way or his religion or his
intentions.), and your Lord knows best of him
whose path (religion) is right."
85. And they ask you (O Muhammad J.
;(concerning the Ruh (the Spirit (اللّه عليه وسلم
Say: "The Ruh (the Spirit) is one of the
things, the knowledge of which is only with
my Lord. And of knowledge, you (mankind)
have been given only a little."
86. And if We willed, We could surely
take away that which We have revealed to
you (i.e. this Qur'an). Then you would find
no protector for you against Us in that
respect.
87. Except as a Mercy from your Lord.
Verily His Grace unto you (O Muhammad
.is ever great (صلى الله عليه وسلم
88. Say: "If the mankind and the jinn were
together to produce the like of this Qur'an,
they could not produce the like thereof, even
if they helped one another."
89. And indeed We have fully explained
to mankind, in this Qur'an, every kind of
similitude, but most of mankind refuse (the
truth and accept nothing) but disbelief.
90. And they say: "We shall not believe in
you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), until you
cause a spring to gush forth from the earth for
us;

silver and pure gold), or you ascend up into

Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم):"Glorified (and

Am I anything but a man, sent as a

94. And nothing prevented men from
believing when the guidance came to them,
except that they said: "Has Allâh sent a man

We should certainly have sent down for them

(V.17:97) Narrated Anas bin Malik de JI gò): A man said, "O Allah's Prophet! Will Allâh
صلى الله عليه وسلم gather a disbeliever (prone) on his face on the Day of Resurrection?" He
said, "Will not the One Who made him walk on his feet in this world, be able to make him
walk on his face on the Day of Resurrection?" (Qatadah, a subnarrator, said: "Yes, by the
Power of Our Lord!") (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 6, Hadith No. 283).

98. That is their recompense, because they
denied Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses,
lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and said:
"When we are bones and fragments, shall we
really be raised up as a new creation?"
99. See they not that Allâh, Who created
the heavens and the earth, is Able to create
the like of them. And He has decreed for
them an appointed term, whereof there is no
doubt. But the Zâlimun (polytheists and
wrong-doers) refuse (the truth - the Message
of Islamic Monotheism, and accept nothing)
but disbelief.
100. Say (to the disbelievers): "If you
possessed the treasure of the Mercy of my
Lord (wealth, money, provision.), then you
would surely hold back (from spending) for
fear of (being exhausted), and man is ever
miserly!"
101. And indeed We gave Mûsâ
(Moses) nine clear signs. Ask then the
Children of Israel, when he came to them,
then Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said to him: "O Mûsâ
(Moses)! I think you are indeed bewitched."
102. [Mûsâ (Moses)] said: "Verily, you
know that these signs have been sent down by
none but the Lord of the heavens and the
earth (as clear evidences i.e. proofs of Allâh's
Oneness and His Omnipotence.). And I think
you are, indeed, O Fir'aun (Pharaoh) doomed
to destruction (away from all good)!"
103. So he resolved to turn them out of
the land (of Egypt). But We drowned him and
all who were with him.
104. And We said to the Children of Israel
after him: "Dwell in the land, then, when the
final and the last promise comes near [i.e. the
Day of Resurrection or the descent of Christ
عليهما السلام (isa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary]
on the earth], We shall bring you altogether
as mixed crowd (gathered out of various
nations).(Tafsir Al-Qurtubî,).
105. And with truth We have sent it down
(i.e. the Qur'ân), and with truth it has
descended. And We have sent you (O

Sûrah 17. Al-Isrâ'
Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) as nothing but a
bearer of glad tidings (of Paradise for those
who follow your Message of Islamic
Monotheism), and a warner (of Hell-fire for
those who refuse to follow your Message of
Islamic Monotheism)[1].
106. And (it is) a Qur'ân which We have
divided (into parts), in order that you might
recite it to men at intervals. And We have
revealed it by stages (in 23 years).
107. Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم to
them): "Believe in it (the Qur'an) or do not
believe (in it). Verily those who were given
knowledge before it (the Jews and the
Christians like 'Abdullah bin Salâm and
Salmân Al-Farisî), when it is recited to them,
fall down on their faces in humble
prostration."
108. And they say: "Glory be to our Lord!
Truly, the Promise of our Lord must be
fulfilled."
109. And they fall down on their faces
weeping and it increases their humility.
:(صلى الله عليه وسلم Say (O Muhammad .110
"Invoke Allâh or invoke the Most Gracious
(Allâh), by whatever name you invoke Him
(it is the same), for to Him belong the Best
Names. And offer your Salât (prayer) neither
aloud nor in a low voice, but follow a way
between.
111. And say: "All the praises and thanks
be to Allâh, Who has not begotten a son (or
offspring), and Who has no partner in (His)
Dominion, nor He is low to have a Walî
(helper, protector or supporter). And magnify
Him with all magnificence, [Allahu-Akbar

Sûrat Al-Kahf (The Cave) XVIII
In the Name of Allâh
the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
1. All the praises and thanks be to Allâh,
Who has sent down to His slave (Muhammad
the Book (the Qur'an), and has (صلى الله عليه وسلم
not placed therein any crookedness.
2. (He has made it) straight to give
warning (to the disbelievers) of a severe
punishment from Him, and to give glad
tidings to the believers (in the Oneness of
Allâh - Islamic Monotheism), who do
righteous deeds, that they shall have a fair
reward (i.e. Paradise).
3. They shall abide therein for ever.
4. And to warn those (Jews, Christians,
and pagans) who say, "Allâh has begotten a
son (or offspring or children)."
5. No knowledge have they of such a
thing, nor had their fathers. Mighty is the
word that comes out of their mouths [i.e. He
begot sons and daughters]. They utter nothing
but a lie 11.
6. Perhaps, you, would kill yourself (O
Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) in grief, over their
footsteps (for their turning away from you),
because they believe not in this narration (the
Qur'ân).
7. Verily! We have made that which is on
earth as an adornment for it, in order that We
may test them (mankind) as to which of them
are best in deeds. [i.e.those who do good deeds
in the most perfect manner, that means to do
them (deeds) totally for Allâh's sake and in
accordance to the legal ways of the Prophet

8. And verily We shall make all that is on
it (the earth) a bare dry soil (without any
vegetation or trees.).
9. Do you think that the people of the
Cave and the Inscription (the news or the
names of the people of the Cave) were a
wonder among Our Signs?
10. (Remember) when the young men fled
for refuge (from their disbelieving folk) to the
Cave. They said: "Our Lord! Bestow on us
mercy from Yourself, and facilitate for us our
affair in the right way!"
11. Therefore, We covered up their (sense
of) hearing (causing them to go in deep sleep)
in the Cave for a number of years.
12. Then We raised them up (from their
sleep), that We might test which of the two
parties was best at calculating the time period
that they had tarried.
13. We narrate unto you (O Muhammad
their story with truth: Truly they (صلى الله عليه وسلم
were young men who believed in their Lord
(Allâh), and We increased them in guidance.
14. And We made their hearts firm and
strong (with the light of Faith in Allâh and
bestowed upon them patience to bear the
separation of their kith and kin and
dwellings.) when they stood up and said:
"Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the
earth, never shall we call upon any ilâh (god)
other than Him; if we did, we should indeed
have uttered an enormity in disbelief.
15. "These our people have taken for
worship âlihah (gods) other than Him
(Allâh). Why do they not bring for them a
clear authority? And who does more wrong
than he who invents a lie against Allâh.
16. (The young men said to one another):
"And when you withdraw from them, and that
