Read Surah Al-Anaam

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

بَلْ اِیَّاهُ تَدْعُوْنَ فَیَكْشِفُ مَا تَدْعُوْنَ اِلَیْهِ اِنْ شَآءَ وَ تَنْسَوْنَ مَا تُشْرِكُوْنَ۠۝۴۱

No: You will call to Him alone; and He will, if He please, remove (the distress) for which you had called Him; and forget those you associate as compeers (with Him)

وَ لَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَاۤ اِلٰۤی اُمَمٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَاَخَذْنٰهُمْ بِالْبَاْسَآءِ وَ الضَّرَّآءِ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَتَضَرَّعُوْنَ۝۴۲

We have indeed sent (apostles) to many a people before you, and inflicted upon them hardships and afflictions so that they might submit.

فَلَوْ لَاۤ اِذْ جَآءَهُمْ بَاْسُنَا تَضَرَّعُوْا وَ لٰكِنْ قَسَتْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ وَ زَیَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّیْطٰنُ مَا كَانُوْا یَعْمَلُوْنَ۝۴۳

Then why did they not submit when Our punishment came upon them? But their hearts were hardened, and Satan made things they were doing look attractive to them.

فَلَمَّا نَسُوْا مَا ذُكِّرُوْا بِهٖ فَتَحْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ اَبْوَابَ كُلِّ شَیْءٍ ؕ حَتّٰۤی اِذَا فَرِحُوْا بِمَاۤ اُوْتُوْۤا اَخَذْنٰهُمْ بَغْتَةً فَاِذَا هُمْ مُّبْلِسُوْنَ۝۴۴

When they had become oblivious of what they were warned, We opened wide the gates of everything to them; yet as they rejoiced at what they were given, We caught them unawares, and they were filled with despair.

فَقُطِعَ دَابِرُ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا ؕ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ۝۴۵

Thus were the wicked people rooted out of existence to the last. All praise be to God, the Lord of all the worlds.

قُلْ اَرَءَیْتُمْ اِنْ اَخَذَ اللّٰهُ سَمْعَكُمْ وَ اَبْصَارَكُمْ وَ خَتَمَ عَلٰی قُلُوْبِكُمْ مَّنْ اِلٰهٌ غَیْرُ اللّٰهِ یَاْتِیْكُمْ بِهٖ ؕ اُنْظُرْ كَیْفَ نُصَرِّفُ الْاٰیٰتِ ثُمَّ هُمْ یَصْدِفُوْنَ۝۴۶

Say: "Imagine if God takes away your hearing and sight, and sets a seal on your hearts, what deity other than God will restore them to you?" See how We inflect Our signs: Even then they turn aside.

قُلْ اَرَءَیْتَكُمْ اِنْ اَتٰىكُمْ عَذَابُ اللّٰهِ بَغْتَةً اَوْ جَهْرَةً هَلْ یُهْلَكُ اِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ۝۴۷

Say: "Imagine if the punishment of God were to come unawares, or openly, who will perish but the evil-doers?"

وَ مَا نُرْسِلُ الْمُرْسَلِیْنَ اِلَّا مُبَشِّرِیْنَ وَ مُنْذِرِیْنَ ۚ فَمَنْ اٰمَنَ وَ اَصْلَحَ فَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَیْهِمْ وَ لَا هُمْ یَحْزَنُوْنَ۝۴۸

We do not send apostles but to give good tidings and to warn. Then those who believe or reform will have neither fear nor regret.

وَ الَّذِیْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا یَمَسُّهُمُ الْعَذَابُ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَفْسُقُوْنَ۝۴۹

But those who deny Our messages will be seized by nemesis for being disobedient.

قُلْ لَّاۤ اَقُوْلُ لَكُمْ عِنْدِیْ خَزَآىِٕنُ اللّٰهِ وَ لَاۤ اَعْلَمُ الْغَیْبَ وَ لَاۤ اَقُوْلُ لَكُمْ اِنِّیْ مَلَكٌ ۚ اِنْ اَتَّبِعُ اِلَّا مَا یُوْحٰۤی اِلَیَّ ؕ قُلْ هَلْ یَسْتَوِی الْاَعْمٰی وَ الْبَصِیْرُ ؕ اَفَلَا تَتَفَكَّرُوْنَ۠۝۵۰

Tell them: "I do not say that I possess the treasures of God, or have knowledge of the Unknown, or that I am an angel. I only follow what is sent down to me." And say: "How can a blind man and a man who can see, be alike? Will you not reflect?"
