Read Surah Al-Furqan

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

بَلْ كَذَّبُوْا بِالسَّاعَةِ ۫ وَ اَعْتَدْنَا لِمَنْ كَذَّبَ بِالسَّاعَةِ سَعِیْرًاۚ۝۱۱

Yet they reject the Hour as untrue. We have prepared a Fire for those who deny the Resurrection.

اِذَا رَاَتْهُمْ مِّنْ مَّكَانٍۭ بَعِیْدٍ سَمِعُوْا لَهَا تَغَیُّظًا وَّ زَفِیْرًا۝۱۲

When (Hell) appears to them from a distance they will hear it raging and roaring.

وَ اِذَاۤ اُلْقُوْا مِنْهَا مَكَانًا ضَیِّقًا مُّقَرَّنِیْنَ دَعَوْا هُنَالِكَ ثُبُوْرًاؕ۝۱۳

And when they are cast within a narrow space of it chained together, they would plead for death.

لَا تَدْعُوا الْیَوْمَ ثُبُوْرًا وَّاحِدًا وَّ ادْعُوْا ثُبُوْرًا كَثِیْرًا۝۱۴

"Do not ask for one death but many deaths on this day."

قُلْ اَذٰلِكَ خَیْرٌ اَمْ جَنَّةُ الْخُلْدِ الَّتِیْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ ؕ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَزَآءً وَّ مَصِیْرًا۝۱۵

Ask them: "Is this better or a garden for everlasting abode which has been promised the pious and devout? It would be their guerdon and their destination.

لَهُمْ فِیْهَا مَا یَشَآءُوْنَ خٰلِدِیْنَ ؕ كَانَ عَلٰی رَبِّكَ وَعْدًا مَّسْـُٔوْلًا۝۱۶

There will they have whatever they wish, and there abide for ever." This is a promise incumbent on your Lord which will certainly be fulfilled.

وَ یَوْمَ یَحْشُرُهُمْ وَ مَا یَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ فَیَقُوْلُ ءَاَنْتُمْ اَضْلَلْتُمْ عِبَادِیْ هٰۤؤُلَآءِ اَمْ هُمْ ضَلُّوا السَّبِیْلَؕ۝۱۷

The day He will gather them together along with those they worshipped other than God, He will ask them: "Did you lure these creatures of Mine away, or did they themselves go astray?"

قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَكَ مَا كَانَ یَنْۢبَغِیْ لَنَاۤ اَنْ نَّتَّخِذَ مِنْ دُوْنِكَ مِنْ اَوْلِیَآءَ وَ لٰكِنْ مَّتَّعْتَهُمْ وَ اٰبَآءَهُمْ حَتّٰی نَسُوا الذِّكْرَ ۚ وَ كَانُوْا قَوْمًۢا بُوْرًا۝۱۸

They will answer: "Glory to You. It was not worthy of us to seek any protector other than You. But You allowed them and their fathers a life of ease until they turned oblivious of the Reminder. They were a people impenitent.

فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوْكُمْ بِمَا تَقُوْلُوْنَ ۙ فَمَا تَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ صَرْفًا وَّ لَا نَصْرًا ۚ وَ مَنْ یَّظْلِمْ مِّنْكُمْ نُذِقْهُ عَذَابًا كَبِیْرًا۝۱۹

(The idolaters will be told): "Your gods have refuted your assertion. You can neither avert (your doom) nor receive any help. We shall make the wicked among you taste of severe punishment."

وَ مَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِیْنَ اِلَّاۤ اِنَّهُمْ لَیَاْكُلُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ وَ یَمْشُوْنَ فِی الْاَسْوَاقِ ؕ وَ جَعَلْنَا بَعْضَكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِتْنَةً ؕ اَتَصْبِرُوْنَ ۚ وَ كَانَ رَبُّكَ بَصِیْرًا۠۝۲۰

We never sent before you apostles who did not eat food and walk the market places. We make some of you the means of trying the others. So will you persevere? Your Lord is always watching.
