Ruku 259

1 Surahs6 Versesركوع 259
18:54
وَلَقَدۡ
And certainly
صَرَّفۡنَا
We have explained
فِى
in
هَـٰذَا
this
ٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ
the Quran
لِلنَّاسِ
for mankind
مِن
of
كُلِّ
every
مَثَلٍ‌ۚ
example
وَكَانَ
But is
ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ
the man
أَكۡثَرَ
(in) most
شَىۡءٍ
things
جَدَلاً
quarrelsome
٥٤
And We have certainly diversified in this Qur’ān for the people from every [kind of] example; but man has ever been, most of anything, [prone to] dispute.
18:55
وَمَا
And nothing
مَنَعَ
prevents
ٱلنَّاسَ
men
أَن
that
يُؤۡمِنُوٓاۡ
they believe
إِذۡ
when
جَآءَهُمُ
has come to them
ٱلۡهُدَىٰ
the guidance
وَيَسۡتَغۡفِرُواۡ
and they ask forgiveness
رَبَّهُمۡ
(of) their Lord
إِلَّآ
except
أَن
that
تَأۡتِيَهُمۡ
comes to them
سُنَّةُ
(the) way
ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
(of) the former (people)
أَوۡ
or
يَأۡتِيَهُمُ
comes to them
ٱلۡعَذَابُ
the punishment
قُبُلاً
before (them)
٥٥
And nothing has prevented the people from believing when guidance came to them and from asking forgiveness of their Lord except that there [must] befall them the [accustomed] precedent of the former peoples1 or that the punishment should come [directly] before them.
18:56
وَمَا
And not
نُرۡسِلُ
We send
ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
the Messengers
إِلَّا
except
مُبَشِّرِينَ
(as) bearers of glad tidings
وَمُنذِرِينَ‌ۚ
and (as) warners
وَيُجَـٰدِلُ
And dispute
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieve
بِٱلۡبَـٰطِلِ
with falsehood
لِيُدۡحِضُواۡ
to refute
بِهِ
thereby
ٱلۡحَقَّ‌ۖ
the truth
وَٱتَّخَذُوٓاۡ
And they take
ءَايَـٰتِى
My Verses
وَمَآ
and what
أُنذِرُواۡ
they are warned
هُزُوًا
(in) ridicule
٥٦
And We send not the messengers except as bringers of good tidings and warners. And those who disbelieve dispute by [using] falsehood to [attempt to] invalidate thereby the truth and have taken My verses, and that of which they are warned, in ridicule.
18:57
وَمَنۡ
And who
أَظۡلَمُ
(is) more wrong
مِمَّن
than (he) who
ذُكِّرَ
is reminded
بِـَٔـايَـٰتِ
of the Verses
رَبِّهِۦ
(of) his Lord
فَأَعۡرَضَ
but turns away
عَنۡهَا
from them
وَنَسِىَ
and forgets
مَا
what
قَدَّمَتۡ
have sent forth
يَدَاهُ‌ۚ
his hands
إِنَّا
Indeed, We
جَعَلۡنَا
[We] have placed
عَلَىٰ
over
قُلُوبِهِمۡ
their hearts
أَكِنَّةً
coverings
أَن
lest
يَفۡقَهُوهُ
they understand it
وَفِىٓ
and in
ءَاذَانِهِمۡ
their ears
وَقۡرًا‌ۖ
(is) deafness
وَإِن
And if
تَدۡعُهُمۡ
you call them
إِلَى
to
ٱلۡهُدَىٰ
the guidance
فَلَن
then never
يَهۡتَدُوٓاۡ
they will be guided
إِذًا
then
أَبَدًا
ever
٥٧
And who is more unjust than one who is reminded of the verses of his Lord but turns away from them and forgets what his hands have put forth? Indeed, We have placed over their hearts coverings, lest they understand it, and in their ears deafness. And if you invite them to guidance - they will never be guided, then - ever.
18:58
وَرَبُّكَ
And your Lord
ٱلۡغَفُورُ
(is) the Most Forgiving
ذُو
Owner
ٱلرَّحۡمَةِ‌ۖ
(of) the Mercy
لَوۡ
If
يُؤَاخِذُهُم
He were to seize them
بِمَا
for what
كَسَبُواۡ
they have earned
لَعَجَّلَ
surely, He (would) have hastened
لَهُمُ
for them
ٱلۡعَذَابَ‌ۚ
the punishment
بَل
But
لَّهُم
for them
مَّوۡعِدٌ
(is) an appointment
لَّن
never
يَجِدُواۡ
they will find
مِن
other than it
دُونِهِۦ
other than it
مَوۡئِلاً
an escape
٥٨
And your Lord is the Forgiving, the possessor of mercy. If He were to impose blame upon them for what they earned, He would have hastened for them the punishment. Rather, for them is an appointment from which they will never find an escape.
18:59
وَتِلۡكَ
And these
ٱلۡقُرَىٰٓ
[the] towns
أَهۡلَكۡنَـٰهُمۡ
We destroyed them
لَمَّا
when
ظَلَمُواۡ
they wronged
وَجَعَلۡنَا
and We made
لِمَهۡلِكِهِم
for their destruction
مَّوۡعِدًا
an appointed time
٥٩
And those cities - We destroyed them when they wronged, and We made for their destruction an appointed time.
