1 Surahs6 Versesركوع 476
57:20
ٱعۡلَمُوٓاۡ
Know
أَنَّمَا
that
ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ
the life
ٱلدُّنۡيَا
(of) the world
لَعِبٌ
(is) play
وَلَهۡوٌ
and amusement
وَزِينَةٌ
and adornment
وَتَفَاخُرُۢ
and boasting
بَيۡنَكُمۡ
among you
وَتَكَاثُرٌ
and competition in increase
فِى
of
ٱلۡأَمۡوٰلِ
the wealth
وَٱلۡأَوۡلَـٰدِ‌ۖ
and the children
كَمَثَلِ
like (the) example
غَيۡثٍ
(of) a rain
أَعۡجَبَ
pleases
ٱلۡكُفَّارَ
the tillers
نَبَاتُهُۥ
its growth
ثُمَّ
then
يَهِيجُ
it dries
فَتَرَٮٰهُ
and you see it
مُصۡفَرًّا
turning yellow
ثُمَّ
then
يَكُونُ
becomes
حُطَـٰمًا‌ۖ
debris
وَفِى
And in
ٱلۡأَخِرَةِ
the Hereafter
عَذَابٌ
(is) a punishment
شَدِيدٌ
severe
وَمَغۡفِرَةٌ
and forgiveness
مِّنَ
from
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَرِضۡوٰنٌ‌ۚ
and Pleasure
وَمَا
But not
ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ
(is) the life
ٱلدُّنۡيَآ
(of) the world
إِلَّا
except
مَتَـٰعُ
(the) enjoyment
ٱلۡغُرُورِ
(of) delusion
٢٠
Know that the life of this world is but amusement and diversion and adornment and boasting to one another and competition in increase of wealth and children - like the example of a rain whose [resulting] plant growth pleases the tillers; then it dries and you see it turned yellow; then it becomes [scattered] debris. And in the Hereafter is severe punishment and forgiveness from Allāh and approval. And what is the worldly life except the enjoyment of delusion.
57:21
سَابِقُوٓاۡ
Race
إِلَىٰ
to
مَغۡفِرَةٍ
(the) forgiveness
مِّن
from
رَّبِّكُمۡ
your Lord
وَجَنَّةٍ
and a Garden
عَرۡضُهَا
its width
كَعَرۡضِ
(is) like (the) width
ٱلسَّمَآءِ
(of) the heaven
وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ
and the earth
أُعِدَّتۡ
prepared
لِلَّذِينَ
for those who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe
بِٱللَّهِ
in Allah
وَرُسُلِهِۦ‌ۚ
and His Messengers
ذٰلِكَ
That
فَضۡلُ
(is the) Bounty
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
يُؤۡتِيهِ
He gives
مَن
(to) whom
يَشَآءُ‌ۚ
He wills
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
ذُو
(is) the Possessor of Bounty
ٱلۡفَضۡلِ
(is) the Possessor of Bounty
ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
the Great
٢١
Race [i.e., compete] toward forgiveness from your Lord and a Garden whose width is like the width of the heavens and earth, prepared for those who believed in Allāh and His messengers. That is the bounty of Allāh which He gives to whom He wills, and Allāh is the possessor of great bounty.
57:22
مَآ
Not
أَصَابَ
strikes
مِن
any
مُّصِيبَةٍ
disaster
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
the earth
وَلَا
and not
فِىٓ
in
أَنفُسِكُمۡ
yourselves
إِلَّا
but
فِى
in
كِتَـٰبٍ
a Register
مِّن
before
قَبۡلِ
before
أَن
that
نَّبۡرَأَهَآ‌ۚ
We bring it into existence
إِنَّ
Indeed
ذٰلِكَ
that
عَلَى
for
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
يَسِيرٌ
(is) easy
٢٢
No disaster strikes upon the earth or among yourselves except that it is in a register1 before We bring it into being - indeed that, for Allāh, is easy -
57:23
لِّكَيۡلَا
So that you may not
تَأۡسَوۡاۡ
grieve
عَلَىٰ
over
مَا
what
فَاتَكُمۡ
has escaped you
وَلَا
and (do) not
تَفۡرَحُواۡ
exult
بِمَآ
at what
ءَاتَـٰكُمۡ‌ۗ
He has given you
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
لَا
(does) not
يُحِبُّ
love
كُلَّ
every
مُخۡتَالٍ
self-deluded
فَخُورٍ
boaster
٢٣
In order that you not despair over what has eluded you and not exult [in pride] over what He has given you. And Allāh does not like everyone self-deluded and boastful -
57:24
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who
يَبۡخَلُونَ
are stingy
وَيَأۡمُرُونَ
and enjoin
ٱلنَّاسَ
(on) the people
بِٱلۡبُخۡلِ‌ۗ
stinginess
وَمَن
And whoever
يَتَوَلَّ
turns away
فَإِنَّ
then indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
هُوَ
He
ٱلۡغَنِىُّ
(is) Free of need
ٱلۡحَمِيدُ
the Praiseworthy
٢٤
[Those] who are stingy and enjoin upon people stinginess. And whoever turns away1 - then indeed, Allāh is the Free of need, the Praiseworthy.
57:25
لَقَدۡ
Certainly
أَرۡسَلۡنَا
We sent
رُسُلَنَا
Our Messengers
بِٱلۡبَيِّنَـٰتِ
with clear proofs
وَأَنزَلۡنَا
and We sent down
مَعَهُمُ
with them
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Scripture
وَٱلۡمِيزَانَ
and the Balance
لِيَقُومَ
that may establish
ٱلنَّاسُ
the people
بِٱلۡقِسۡطِ‌ۖ
justice
وَأَنزَلۡنَا
And We sent down
ٱلۡحَدِيدَ
[the] iron
فِيهِ
wherein
بَأۡسٌ
(is) power
شَدِيدٌ
mighty
وَمَنَـٰفِعُ
and benefits
لِلنَّاسِ
for the people
وَلِيَعۡلَمَ
and so that Allah may make evident
ٱللَّهُ
and so that Allah may make evident
مَن
(he) who
يَنصُرُهُۥ
helps Him
وَرُسُلَهُۥ
and His Messengers
بِٱلۡغَيۡبِ‌ۚ
unseen
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
قَوِىٌّ
(is) All-Strong
عَزِيزٌ
All-Mighty
٢٥
We have already sent Our messengers with clear evidences and sent down with them the Scripture and the balance that the people may maintain [their affairs] in justice. And We sent down iron, wherein is great military might and benefits for the people, and so that Allāh may make evident those who support Him and His messengers unseen. Indeed, Allāh is Powerful and Exalted in Might.
