Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un

The Quran
Surah Yunus
Jonah (PBUH)

20. They say, ‘Why has no miraculous sign been sent down to him from his Lord?’ Say [Prophet], ‘Only God knows the unseen, so wait- I too am waiting.’

21. No sooner do We let people taste some mercy after some hardship has afflicted them, than they begin to scheme against Our revelations. Say, ‘God schemes even faster.’ Our messengers record all your scheming.

22. It is He who enables you to travel on land and sea until, when you are sailing on ships and rejoicing in the favouring wind, a storm arrives: waves come at those on board from all sides and they feel there is no escape. Then they pray to God, professing sincere devotion to Him, ‘If You save us from this we shall
be truly thankful.’

23. Yet no sooner does He save them than, back on land, they behave outrageously against all that is right. People! Your outrageous behaviour only works against yourselves. Take your little enjoyment in this present life; in the end you will return to Us and We shall confront you with everything you have done.

24. The life of this world is like this: rain that We send down from the sky is absorbed by the plants of the earth, from which humans and animals eat. But when the earth has taken on its finest appearance, and adorns itself, and its people think they have power over it, then the fate We commanded comes to it, by night or by day, and We reduce it to stubble, as if it had not flourished just the day before. This is the way We explain the revelations for those who reflect.

25. But God invites [everyone] to the Home of Peace, and guides whoever He will to a straight path.

26. Those who did well will have the best reward and more besides. Neither darkness nor shame will cover their faces: these are the companions in Paradise,
and there they will remain.

27. As for those who did evil, each evil deed will be requited by its equal and humiliation will cover them- no one will protect them against God- as though their faces were covered with veils cut from the darkness of the night. These are the inmates of the Fire, and there they shall remain.

28. On the Day We gather them all together, We shall say to those who associate partners with God, ‘Stay in your place, you and your partner-gods.’ Then We shall separate them, and their partner-gods will say, ‘It was not us you worshipped-

29. God is witness enough between us and you- we had no idea that you worshipped us.’

30. Every soul will realize, then and there, what it did in the past. They will be returned to God, their rightful Lord, and their invented [gods] will desert them.

31. Say [Prophet], ‘Who provides for you from the sky and the earth? Who controls hearing and sight? Who brings forth the living from the dead and the dead from the living, and who governs everything?’ They are sure to say, ‘God.’ Then say, ‘So why do you not take heed of Him?

32. That is God, your Lord, the Truth. Apart from the Truth, what is there except error? So how is it that you are dissuaded?’

33. In this way, your Lord’s word about those who defy [the Truth] has been proved- they do not believe.

34. Ask them, ‘Can any of your partner-gods originate creation, then bring it back to life again in the end?’ Say, ‘It is God that originates creation, and then brings it back to life, so how can you be misled?’

35. Say, ‘Can any of your partner-gods show the way to the Truth?’ Say, ‘God shows the way to the Truth. Is someone who shows the way to the Truth more worthy to be followed, or someone who cannot find the way unless he himself is shown? What is the matter with you? How do you judge?’

36. Most of them follow nothing but assumptions, but assumptions can be of no value at all against the Truth: God is well aware of what they do.

37. Nor could this Quran have been devised by anyone other than God. It is a confirmation of what was revealed before it and an explanation of the Scripture- let there be no doubt about it- it is from the Lord of the Worlds.

38. Or do they say, ‘He has devised it’? Say, ‘Then produce a surah like it, and call on anyone you can beside God if you are telling
the truth.’

39. But they are denying what they cannot comprehend- its prophecy has yet to be fulfilled for them. In the same way, those before them refused to believe- see what was the end of those evildoers!

The Quran
Surah Yunus
Jonah (PBUH)

40. Some of them believe in it, and some do not: your Lord knows best those who cause corruption.

41. If they do not believe you, [Prophet], say, ‘I act for myself, and you for yourselves. You are not responsible for my actions nor am I responsible for yours.’

42. Some of them do listen to you: but can you make the deaf hear if they will not use their minds?

43. Some of them look at you: but can you guide the blind if they will not see?

44. God does not wrong people at all- it is they who wrong themselves.

45. On the Day He gathers them together, it will be as if they have stayed [in the world] no longer than a single hour, and they will recognize one another. Those who denied the meeting with God will be the losers, for they did not follow the right guidance.

46. Whether We let you [Prophet] see some of the punishment We have threatened them with, or cause you to die [first], they will return to Us: God is witness to what they do.

47. Every community is sent a messenger, and when their messenger comes, they will be judged justly; they will not be wronged.

48. They ask, ‘When will this promise be fulfilled, if what you say is true?’

49. Say [Prophet], ‘I cannot control any harm or benefit that comes to me, except as God wills. There is an appointed term for every community, and when it is reached they can neither delay nor hasten it, even for a moment.’

50. Say, ‘Think: if His punishment were to come to you, during the night or day, what part of it would the guilty wish to hasten?

51. Will you believe in it, when it actually happens?’ It will be said, ‘Now [you believe], when [before] you sought to hasten it?’

52. It will be said to the evildoers, ‘Taste lasting punishment. Why should you be rewarded for anything but what you did?’

53. They ask you [Prophet], ‘Is it true?’ Say, ‘Yes, by my Lord, it is true, and you cannot escape it.’

54. Every soul that has done evil, if it possessed all that is on the earth, would gladly offer it as ransom. When they see the punishment, they will repent in secret, but they will be judged with justice and will not be wronged.

55. It is to God that everything in the heavens and the earth truly belongs: God’s promise is true, but most people do not realize it.

56. It is He who gives life and takes it, and you will all be returned to Him.

57. People, a teaching from your Lord has come to you, a healing for what is in [your] hearts, and guidance and mercy for the believers.

58. Say [Prophet], ‘In God’s grace and mercy let them rejoice: these are better than all they accumulate.’

59. Say, ‘Think about the provision God has sent down for you, some of which you have made unlawful and some lawful.’ Say, ‘Has God given you permission [to do this], or are you inventing lies about God?’

60. What will those people who invent lies about Him think on the Day of Resurrection? God is bountiful towards people, but most of them do not give thanks.

61. In whatever matter you [Prophet] may be engaged and whatever part of the Quran you are reciting, whatever work you [people] are doing, We witness you when you are engaged in it. Not even the weight of a speck of dust in the earth or sky escapes your Lord, nor anything lesser or greater: it is all written in
a clear record.

62. But for those who are on God’s side there is no fear, nor shall they grieve.

63. For those who believe and are conscious of God,

64. for them there is good news in this life and in the Hereafter- there is no changing the promises of God- that is truly the supreme triumph.

65. Do not let their words grieve you [Prophet]. Power belongs entirely to God; He hears all and knows all;

66. indeed, all who are in the heavens and on the earth belong to Him. Those who call upon others beside God are not really following partner-gods; they are only following assumptions and telling lies.

67. It is He who made the night so that you can rest in it and the daylight so that you can see- there truly are signs in this for those who hear.

68. They say, ‘God has children!’ May He be exalted! He is the Self-Sufficient One; everything in the heavens and the earth belongs to Him. You have no authority to say this. How dare you say things about God without any knowledge?

69. Say [Prophet], ‘Those who invent lies about God will not prosper.’

70. They may have a little enjoyment in this world, but then they will return to Us. Then We shall make them taste severe punishment for persisting in blasphemy.

The Quran
Surah Al-Kahf
The Cave
Verse 47-49

One day We shall make the mountains move, and you will see the earth as an open plain. We shall gather all people together, leaving no one. They will be lined up before your Lord: ‘Now you have come to Us as We first created you, although you claimed We had not made any such appointment for you.’ The record of their deeds will be laid open and you will see the guilty, dismayed at what they contain, saying, ‘Woe to us! What a record this is! It does not leave any deed, small or large, unaccounted for!’ They will find everything they ever did laid in front of them: your Lord will not be unjust to anyone.

The Quran
Surah Al-Ankabut

The Spider

56. My believing servants! My earth is vast, so worship Me and Me alone.

57. Every soul will taste death, then it is to Us that you will be returned.

58. We shall lodge those who believed and did good deeds in lofty dwellings, in the Garden graced with flowing streams, there to remain. How excellent is the reward of those who labour,

59. those who are steadfast, those who put their trust in their Lord!

60. How many are the creatures who do not store their sustenance! God sustains them and you: He alone is the All Hearing, the All Knowing.

61. If you ask the disbelievers who created the heavens and earth and who harnessed the sun and moon, they are sure to say, ‘God.’ Then why do they turn away from Him?

62. It is God who gives abundantly to whichever of His servants He will, and sparingly to whichever He will: He has full knowledge of everything.

63. If you ask them, ‘Who sends water down from the sky and gives life with it to the earth after it has died?’ they are sure to say, ‘God.’ Say, ‘Praise belongs to God!’ Truly, most of them do not use their reason.

64. The life of this world is merely an amusement and a diversion; the true life is in the Hereafter, if only they knew.

65. Whenever they go on board a ship they call on God, and dedicate their faith to Him alone, but once He has delivered them safely back to land, see how they ascribe partners to Him!

66. Let them show their ingratitude for what We have given them; let them take their enjoyment- soon they will know.

67. Can they not see that We have made [them] a secure sanctuary though all around them people are snatched away? Then how can they believe in what is false and deny God’s blessing?

68. Who could be more wicked than the person who invents lies about God, or denies the truth when it comes to him? Is Hell not the home for the disbelievers?

69. But We shall be sure to guide to Our ways those who strive hard for Our cause: God is with those who do good.
