38. Saad سُورَةُ صٓ
Saheeh InternationalSad. By the Qur'an containing reminder
Saheeh InternationalBut those who disbelieve are in pride and dissension
Saheeh InternationalHow many a generation have We destroyed before them, and they [then] called out; but it was not a time for escape
Saheeh InternationalAnd they wonder that there has come to them a warner from among themselves. And the disbelievers say, "This is a magician and a liar
Saheeh InternationalHas he made the gods [only] one God? Indeed, this is a curious thing
Saheeh InternationalAnd the eminent among them went forth, [saying], "Continue, and be patient over [the defense of] your gods. Indeed, this is a thing intended
Saheeh InternationalWe have not heard of this in the latest religion. This is not but a fabrication
Saheeh InternationalHas the message been revealed to him out of [all of] us?" Rather, they are in doubt about My message. Rather, they have not yet tasted My punishment
Saheeh InternationalOr do they have the depositories of the mercy of your Lord, the Exalted in Might, the Bestower
Saheeh InternationalOr is theirs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and what is between them? Then let them ascend through [any] ways of access
Saheeh International[They are but] soldiers [who will be] defeated there among the companies [of disbelievers]
Saheeh InternationalThe people of Noah denied before them, and [the tribe of] 'Aad and Pharaoh, the owner of stakes
Saheeh InternationalAnd [the tribe of] Thamud and the people of Lot and the companions of the thicket. Those are the companies
Saheeh InternationalEach of them denied the messengers, so My penalty was justified
Saheeh InternationalAnd these [disbelievers] await not but one blast [of the Horn]; for it there will be no delay
Saheeh InternationalAnd they say, "Our Lord, hasten for us our share [of the punishment] before the Day of Account
Saheeh InternationalBe patient over what they say and remember Our servant, David, the possessor of strength; indeed, he was one who repeatedly turned back [to Allah]
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, We subjected the mountains [to praise] with him, exalting [Allah] in the [late] afternoon and [after] sunrise
Saheeh InternationalAnd the birds were assembled, all with him repeating [praises]
Saheeh InternationalAnd We strengthened his kingdom and gave him wisdom and discernment in speech
Saheeh InternationalAnd has there come to you the news of the adversaries, when they climbed over the wall of [his] prayer chamber
Saheeh InternationalWhen they entered upon David and he was alarmed by them? They said, "Fear not. [We are] two adversaries, one of whom has wronged the other, so judge between us with truth and do not exceed [it] and guide us to the sound path
Saheeh InternationalIndeed this, my brother, has ninety-nine ewes, and I have one ewe; so he said, 'Entrust her to me,' and he overpowered me in speech
Saheeh International[David] said, "He has certainly wronged you in demanding your ewe [in addition] to his ewes. And indeed, many associates oppress one another, except for those who believe and do righteous deeds - and few are they." And David became certain that We had tried him, and he asked forgiveness of his Lord and fell down bowing [in prostration] and turned in repentance [to Allah]
Saheeh InternationalSo We forgave him that; and indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return
Saheeh International[We said], "O David, indeed We have made you a successor upon the earth, so judge between the people in truth and do not follow [your own] desire, as it will lead you astray from the way of Allah." Indeed, those who go astray from the way of Allah will have a severe punishment for having forgotten the Day of Account
Saheeh InternationalAnd We did not create the heaven and the earth and that between them aimlessly. That is the assumption of those who disbelieve, so woe to those who disbelieve from the Fire
Saheeh InternationalOr should we treat those who believe and do righteous deeds like corrupters in the land? Or should We treat those who fear Allah like the wicked
Saheeh International[This is] a blessed Book which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], that they might reflect upon its verses and that those of understanding would be reminded
Saheeh InternationalAnd to David We gave Solomon. An excellent servant, indeed he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allah]
Saheeh International[Mention] when there were exhibited before him in the afternoon the poised [standing] racehorses
Saheeh InternationalAnd he said, "Indeed, I gave preference to the love of good [things] over the remembrance of my Lord until the sun disappeared into the curtain [of darkness]
Saheeh International[He said], "Return them to me," and set about striking [their] legs and necks
Saheeh InternationalAnd We certainly tried Solomon and placed on his throne a body; then he returned
Saheeh InternationalHe said, "My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as will not belong to anyone after me. Indeed, You are the Bestower
Saheeh InternationalSo We subjected to him the wind blowing by his command, gently, wherever he directed
Saheeh InternationalAnd [also] the devils [of jinn] - every builder and diver
Saheeh InternationalAnd others bound together in shackles
Saheeh International[We said], "This is Our gift, so grant or withhold without account
Saheeh InternationalAnd indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return
Saheeh InternationalAnd remember Our servant Job, when he called to his Lord, "Indeed, Satan has touched me with hardship and torment
Saheeh International[So he was told], "Strike [the ground] with your foot; this is a [spring for] a cool bath and drink
Saheeh InternationalAnd We granted him his family and a like [number] with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for those of understanding
Saheeh International[We said], "And take in your hand a bunch [of grass] and strike with it and do not break your oath." Indeed, We found him patient, an excellent servant. Indeed, he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allah]
Saheeh InternationalAnd remember Our servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - those of strength and [religious] vision
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, We chose them for an exclusive quality: remembrance of the home [of the Hereafter]
Saheeh InternationalAnd indeed they are, to Us, among the chosen and outstanding
Saheeh InternationalAnd remember Ishmael, Elisha and Dhul-Kifl, and all are among the outstanding
Saheeh InternationalThis is a reminder. And indeed, for the righteous is a good place of return
Saheeh InternationalGardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will be opened to them
Saheeh InternationalReclining within them, they will call therein for abundant fruit and drink
Saheeh InternationalAnd with them will be women limiting [their] glances and of equal age
Saheeh InternationalThis is what you, [the righteous], are promised for the Day of Account
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, this is Our provision; for it there is no depletion
Saheeh InternationalThis [is so]. But indeed, for the transgressors is an evil place of return
Saheeh InternationalHell, which they will [enter to] burn, and wretched is the resting place
Saheeh InternationalThis - so let them taste it - is scalding water and [foul] purulence
Saheeh InternationalAnd other [punishments] of its type [in various] kinds
Saheeh International[Its inhabitants will say], "This is a company bursting in with you. No welcome for them. Indeed, they will burn in the Fire
Saheeh InternationalThey will say, "Nor you! No welcome for you. You, [our leaders], brought this upon us, and wretched is the settlement
Saheeh InternationalThey will say, "Our Lord, whoever brought this upon us - increase for him double punishment in the Fire
Saheeh InternationalAnd they will say, "Why do we not see men whom we used to count among the worst
Saheeh InternationalIs it [because] we took them in ridicule, or has [our] vision turned away from them
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, that is truth - the quarreling of the people of the Fire
Saheeh InternationalSay, [O Muhammad], "I am only a warner, and there is not any deity except Allah, the One, the Prevailing
Saheeh InternationalLord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver
Saheeh InternationalSay, "It is great news
Saheeh InternationalI had no knowledge of the exalted assembly [of angels] when they were disputing [the creation of Adam]
Saheeh InternationalIt has not been revealed to me except that I am a clear warner
Saheeh International[So mention] when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I am going to create a human being from clay
Saheeh InternationalSo when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration
Saheeh InternationalSo the angels prostrated - all of them entirely
Saheeh InternationalExcept Iblees; he was arrogant and became among the disbelievers
Saheeh International[Allah] said, "O Iblees, what prevented you from prostrating to that which I created with My hands? Were you arrogant [then], or were you [already] among the haughty
Saheeh InternationalHe said, "I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay
Saheeh International[Allah] said, "Then get out of Paradise, for indeed, you are expelled
Saheeh InternationalAnd indeed, upon you is My curse until the Day of Recompense
Saheeh InternationalHe said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected
Saheeh International[Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved
Saheeh InternationalUntil the Day of the time well-known
Saheeh International[Iblees] said, "By your might, I will surely mislead them all
Saheeh InternationalExcept, among them, Your chosen servants
Saheeh International[Allah] said, "The truth [is My oath], and the truth I say
Saheeh International[That] I will surely fill Hell with you and those of them that follow you all together
Saheeh InternationalSay, [O Muhammad], "I do not ask you for the Qur'an any payment, and I am not of the pretentious
Saheeh InternationalIt is but a reminder to the worlds
Saheeh InternationalAnd you will surely know [the truth of] its information after a time
