I am with him when he makes mention
of Me. If he makes mention of Me
to himself, I make mention of him
to Myself; and if he makes
mention of Me in an assembly,
I make mention of him in an assembly
better than it. And if he draws near
to Me an arm's length,
I draw near to him a cubit,

a cubit, I draw near to him
a fathom. And if he comes to
Me walking, I go to him at speed.

pay the prescribed alms, and
believe firmly in the life to come.
4. As for those who do not believe
in the life to come, We have made
their deeds seem alluring to them,

What about the one whose heart
God has opened in devotion to Him,
so that he walks in light from his Lord?
Alas for those whose hearts harden at the
mention of God! They have clearly lost
their way. God has sent down the most
beautiful of all teachings: a Scripture
that is consistent and draws comparisons;
that causes the skins of those in awe
of their Lord to shiver. Then their skins

God: such is God’s guidance. He guides

except that you become angels
or become of the immortal.”
21. And he swore [by Allah] to them,
“Indeed, I am to you from among
the sincere advisors.”

through deception.
And when they tasted
from the tree,
their private parts
became apparent to them,

together over themselves
from the leaves of Paradise.

“Did I not forbid you from that tree

all of them - fell
down in prostration.
31. but not Iblis (Satan),
who refused to prostrate
with the others.
32. Allah asked, “O Iblis!
What is the matter with you
that you did not join
others in prostration?”
33. He replied,
“It is not for me to
prostrate to a human
You created from
sounding clay
moulded from
black mud.”
34. Allah commanded,
“Then get out of Paradise,
for you are truly cursed.
35. And surely upon you
is condemnation until
the Day of Judgment.”
36. Satan appealed, “My Lord!
Then delay my end until
the Day of their
resurrection.”
37. Allah said,
“You will be delayed
38. until the appointed Day.”
39. Satan responded, “My Lord!
Because You have put me in error
I will surely tempt them on earth
and mislead them all together,
40. except Your
chosen servants
among them.”
41. Allah said,
“Devotion is the Path,
that leads straight to Me:
42. you will certainly
have no authority over
My servants, except the
deviant who follow you,

is the promised place
