Transcript
00:00In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
00:06Ha Meem
00:10The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise
00:18We have not created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them except in truth and an appointed term. And those who disbelieve turn away from that which they are warned
00:41Say, have you seen that which you invoke besides Allah? Show me what they have created of the earth, or do they have a partner in the heavens?
01:04Bring me a book before this or traces of knowledge, if you are truthful
01:25And who is more astray than one who invokes besides Allah, one who does not respond to him until the Day of Resurrection, and they are unaware of their invocation
01:48And when the people are gathered, they will be enemies to them, and they will be disbelievers in their worship
02:03And when Our clear signs are recited to them, those who disbelieve say of the truth when it comes to them, this is clear magic
02:24Or do they say, he has invented it? Say, if I invented it, then you do not possess for me from Allah anything. He is most knowing of what you pour into it. Sufficient for Him is a witness between me and you, and He is the Forgiving, the Merciful
02:51Say, I am not an invention of the messengers, and I do not know what to do with me or with you
03:08I do not follow except what is revealed to me, and I am not but a clear warner
03:38And those who disbelieve say to those who believe, if it were good, they would not have preceded us to it
04:07And when they are not guided by it, they will say, this is an old lie
04:37Indeed, those who say, Our Lord is Allah, then He has made him right, so there is no fear for them, nor do they grieve
05:06Those are the companions of Paradise, abiding therein as a reward for what they used to do
05:25And We have enjoined upon man, concerning his parents, good conduct. His mother bore him with hatred, and she gave birth to him with hatred. And his pregnancy and his childbirth were thirty months
05:48Until when he reached his maturity and reached forty years, he said, My Lord, allow me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents
06:09And that I should do good that You may please me and do good to me in my offspring. Indeed, I have been tested by You, and indeed, I am of the Muslims
06:39And those who disbelieve say to those who disbelieve, Our Lord is Allah, then He has made him right, so there is no fear for them, nor do they grieve
07:09And those who disbelieve say to those who disbelieve, Our Lord is Allah, then He has made him right, so there is no fear for them, nor do they grieve
07:33Those are the ones upon whom the word has come into effect in nations before them of jinn and men. Indeed, they have been losers
07:59And for each are degrees from that which they have done, and that He may give them in full their deeds, and they will not be wronged
08:16And the Day when those who disbelieve will be presented before the Fire, saying, You have taken your good things in your worldly life and enjoyed it
08:38So this Day you will be requited for the punishment of humiliation because you were arrogant in the land without right and because you were disobedient
09:02And remember the brother of Aad when he warned his people about the graves, and the warning passed before him and behind him that you will not worship except Allah
09:27Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a great Day
09:35They said, Have you come to us to divert us from our gods? Then bring us what you promise us, if you are of the truthful
09:52He said, Knowledge is only with Allah, and I convey to you what I have been sent with, but I see you as a people who are ignorant
10:14So when they saw him, a thunderbolt, facing their valleys, they said, This is a thunderbolt that will rain on us. Rather, it is what you asked to hasten, a wind in which is a painful punishment
10:39Destroying everything by the command of its Lord. So they became not to be seen except their dwellings. Thus do We recompense the criminal people
11:01And We have established them in that in which We have established you, and We have made for them hearing and sight and hearts, but their hearing and sight and hearts have not availed them of anything
11:30when they used to reject the signs of Allah, and that which they used to ridicule encompassed them
11:45And We have destroyed what is around you of the cities, and We have spread out the signs that they may return
12:00So why did those who took from it besides Allah not help them as close relatives of their gods? Rather, they have strayed from them, and that is their falsehood, and they are not inventors
12:19And when We sent to you a group of jinn, they were listening to the Qur'an. So when they brought it, they said, Be quiet. So when it was decided, they turned to their people as warners
12:47They said, O our people, indeed we have heard a book sent down after Moses, confirming what was before it, guiding to the truth
13:16and to a straight path
13:21O our people, respond to the caller of Allah and believe in him. He will forgive you of your sins and save you from a painful punishment
13:45And whoever does not respond to the caller of Allah, he is not in a state of failure in the land, and he has no protectors other than Him. Those are in clear error
14:12Do they not see that Allah, who created the heavens and the earth and did not fail in His creation, is able to give life to the dead? Yes, indeed, He is able to do all things
14:42And the Day those who disbelieve will be presented before the Fire, they will say, Is this not the truth? They will say, Yes, by our Lord. He will say, Then taste the punishment because you used to disbelieve
15:02So be patient, as those of determination are patient with the messengers, and do not ask to be hastened for them. It is as if they, on the Day they see what they are promised, will not remain but an hour of a day
15:23In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
