[43:1] HaMeem

[43:2] And the proven scripture.

[43:3] We have indeed made it an Arabic Quran that you may use your intelligence.

[43:4] And indeed it is in an original master tablet at Our site, exalted, full of wisdom.

[43:5] Shall We then ignore the reminder completely and the fact that you are a transgressing people?

[43:6] And We sent many prophets to the early generations.

[43:7] And there was not a single prophet that they did not ridicule.

[43:8] Consequently, We annihilated those who were more powerful than them and their example became history.

[43:9] If you ask them who created the vacua and matter, they would definitely say, The Almighty, The All Knowing created them.

[43:10] He is the One who made the land habitable for you and made therein roads that you may find your way.

[43:11] And He is the One who sends water from the sky in exact measure; consequently, We revive the dead land. You will thus be resurrected.

[43:12] And He is the One who created everything in pairs and made for you ships and livestock that you ride.

[43:13] In order that you may sit comfortably on their backs, and that you may remember your Lord's blessing for making it comfortable for you and say, constant glory to the One who subdued these for us, otherwise we could have never achieved this.

[43:14] And We will indeed return to our Lord.

[43:15] They also considered some of His servants to be a part of Him. Indeed the human being is manifestly unappreciative.

[43:16] Has He taken daughters from what He creates, while granting you sons?

[43:17] When one of them is given the news of the same as what he sees fit for The All Gracious, a dark shadow covers his face and he becomes full of rage.

[43:18] Who wants a pretty thing? He continues to suffer the puzzling contradiction.

[43:19] And they also considered angels who are servants of The All Gracious to be females. Did they witness their creation? Their testimony will be recorded, and they will be held accountable.

[43:20] And they said, if The All Gracious had not willed, we would have not worshipped them. They have no knowledge of this, they only conjecture.

[43:21] Have We given them a scripture before this to which they are referring?

[43:22] In fact they said, we indeed found our parents following certain traditions, and we just follow their footsteps.

[43:23] And every time We sent a warner before you to any community, their leaders said, we found our parents following certain traditions and we surely follow their footsteps.

[43:24] He said, what if I brought you better guidance than what you found your parents following? They said, we surely disbelieve in your message.

[43:25] We therefore requited them, and observe the consequence for the rejecters.

[43:26] And as Abraham said to his father and his people; I indeed disown what you worship,

[43:27] Only the One Who initiated me, and He will definitely guide me.

[43:28] And he left it as a lasting reminder to his progeny that they may return.

[43:29] Surely, I have provided for them and their parents, until the truth and a clarifying messenger came to them.

[43:30] And when the truth came to them, they said, this is magic, and we are indeed disbelievers therein.

[43:31] They also said, why was not this Quran revealed to a great man from either of the two communities?

[43:32] Are they the ones who distribute your Lord's mercy? We distribute their livelihood in this worldly life and raise some of them above others in rank, so that some may rule others. And the mercy of your Lord is far better than whatever they hoard.

[43:33] And if it were not that all people might become of a single community, We would have provided for everyone who has no faith in The All Gracious, silver roofs with lifts to climb to the top.

[43:34] And gates to their homes, and luxurious furnishings on which they could relax,-

[43:35] -and also vanities. But all these are only the materials of this worldly life, and the Hereafter is reserved for the righteous at your Lord.

[43:36] As for the one who turns away from commemorating The All Gracious, We appoint a demon to be his constant companion.

[43:37] Such companions will surely repel them from the path, and they think that they are guided.

[43:38] When he comes to Us, he says, O I wished I was as far away from you as the distance between the two locations of the sunrise. What an evil companion.

[43:39] Today nothing will benefit you, because you have transgressed. You shall indeed share the suffering.

[43:40] Can you therefore make the deaf hear, or guide the blind and the one who is in manifest straying?

[43:41] Even if We remove you from their midst, We will surely punish them.

[43:42] Or We may show you what We have promised them. For indeed We are All Powerful.

[43:43] Therefore, you shall hold fast to the One who has inspired you. You are indeed on a straight path.

[43:44] And indeed it is a message for you and for your people, and soon they will be held responsible.

[43:45] And seek your answer through messengers We sent before you; did We appoint any god to be worshiped besides The All Gracious?

[43:46] And We surely sent Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his elders, he then said, I am indeed a messenger of the Lord of the multiverse.

[43:47] But when he came to them with Our signs, they laughed at them.

[43:48] And We did not show them any sign that was not greater than its counterpart, and We inflicted them with adversity that they may return.

[43:49] And they said, O you magician, call upon your Lord on our behalf according to His covenant with you; we will surely become guided.

[43:50] But once We removed the adversity from them, they broke their promise.

[43:51] And Pharaoh lectured his people, saying, O my people, do I not possess the kingship of Egypt and do these rivers not flow beneath me? Do you not then see?

[43:52] Am I not better than this one who is lowly and can hardly be understood?

[43:53] Then why does he not have a bracelet of gold or why are the angels not accompanying him?

[43:54] He therefore duped his people, consequently they obeyed him. They were indeed wicked people.

[43:55] Therefore, once they opposed Us, We punished them by drowning them all.

[43:56] We therefore made them history and an example for subsequent generations.

[43:57] And when the son of Mary was cited as an example, your people turned away.

[43:58] And they said, are our gods better or he? They only cited him to argue with you. Indeed they are hostile people.

[43:59] He was no more than a servant whom We blessed and made him an example for the Children of Israel.

[43:60] And had We willed, We could have made you angels inheriting the land.

[43:61] And indeed He has the knowledge of the Hour; therefore you shall harbor no doubt about it, and follow this straight path.

[43:62] And do not let Satan divert you, indeed he is your most manifest enemy.

[43:63] And when Jesus came with proofs, he said, I have indeed come to you with wisdom, and I will certainly clarify for you some of your disputes; therefore, fear God and obey.

[43:64] Indeed, God is my Lord and your Lord; therefore, worship Him. This is the straight path.

[43:65] But groups from amongst them disputed; therefore, woe to the transgressors for awaiting them is the suffering of a painful day.

[43:66] Are they waiting for the Hour? It will come to them suddenly, when they least expect it.

[43:67] Friends on that day will become enemies of one another, except the god-fearing ones.

[43:68] O My servants; have no fear on that Day, nor shall you grieve.

[43:69] Those who believe in Our signs and are at peace.

[43:70] Enter Paradise, you and your spouses and rejoice.

[43:71] They will be served with golden trays and cups, and in there they will have everything the soul desires and pleases the eye. And you will abide therein eternally.

[43:72] And this is Paradise that you inherit, because of what you did.

[43:73] For you, there will be plenty of fruits which you can eat.

[43:74] Indeed, the guilty will be in the agony of Gehenna forever.

[43:75] It will never be reduced for them and they will be completely hopeless.

[43:76] And We were never unjust toward them; on the contrary they were unjust to themselves.

[43:77] And they call; O Malik, have your Lord finish us off. He says; you are staying.

[43:78] Indeed, We have presented the truth to you; however, most of you hate the truth.

[43:79] Are they determining a certain affair? In reality, We are the determiner.

[43:80] Do they think that We do not hear their secrets and their whispers? Yes, indeed, and Our messengers are with them, recording.

[43:81] Say, if The All Gracious had a son, I would have been the first worshiper.

[43:82] Glory to the Lord of the vacua and matter, the Lord of the throne, far above their descriptions.

[43:83] So let them blunder and play until they meet the day which has been promised to them.

[43:84] And He is the One who is god in the vacuum and god in matter, and He is The All Wise, The All Knowledgeable.

[43:85] And blessed is the One to whom belongs the kingship of the vacua and matter, and everything between them. With Him is the knowledge of the Hour and to Him you will be returned.

[43:86] And those whom they call upon besides Him have no power of intercession, except those who bear witness to the truth, and they know.

[43:87] If you ask them, who created them, they will surely say, God. How can they then deviate?

[43:88] And He will be told, O Lord, indeed these are people who are not faithful.

[43:89] Therefore, disregard them and say, "Peace". They will soon find out.
