Read Surah Hud

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

الٓرٰ ۫ كِتٰبٌ اُحْكِمَتْ اٰیٰتُهٗ ثُمَّ فُصِّلَتْ مِنْ لَّدُنْ حَكِیْمٍ خَبِیْرٍۙ۝۱

ALIF LAM RA. This is a Book whose verses are indeclinable and distinct, which comes from One who is most wise and all-knowing,

اَلَّا تَعْبُدُوْۤا اِلَّا اللّٰهَ ؕ اِنَّنِیْ لَكُمْ مِّنْهُ نَذِیْرٌ وَّ بَشِیْرٌۙ۝۲

(Proclaiming) that you should worship none but God. Verily I bring to you from Him a message of warning and rejoicing,

وَّ اَنِ اسْتَغْفِرُوْا رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوْبُوْۤا اِلَیْهِ یُمَتِّعْكُمْ مَّتَاعًا حَسَنًا اِلٰۤی اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّی وَّ یُؤْتِ كُلَّ ذِیْ فَضْلٍ فَضْلَهٗ ؕ وَ اِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَاِنِّیْۤ اَخَافُ عَلَیْكُمْ عَذَابَ یَوْمٍ كَبِیْرٍ۝۳

And that you should seek His forgiveness and turn towards Him. He will bestow the best things of life on you for a time ordained, and favour those with blessings who are worthy of grace. But if you turn away, I fear the punishment of a terrible Day for you.

اِلَی اللّٰهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ ۚ وَ هُوَ عَلٰی كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ۝۴

To God have you to go back, and He has power over everything.

اَلَاۤ اِنَّهُمْ یَثْنُوْنَ صُدُوْرَهُمْ لِیَسْتَخْفُوْا مِنْهُ ؕ اَلَا حِیْنَ یَسْتَغْشُوْنَ ثِیَابَهُمْ ۙ یَعْلَمُ مَا یُسِرُّوْنَ وَ مَا یُعْلِنُوْنَ ۚ اِنَّهٗ عَلِیْمٌۢ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُوْرِ۝۵

Look, how they double up their breasts in order to hide from Him. But when they cover themselves up with their garments, He knows what they hide and what they expose. Indeed, He knows the secrets of the hearts.

وَ مَا مِنْ دَآبَّةٍ فِی الْاَرْضِ اِلَّا عَلَی اللّٰهِ رِزْقُهَا وَ یَعْلَمُ مُسْتَقَرَّهَا وَ مُسْتَوْدَعَهَا ؕ كُلٌّ فِیْ كِتٰبٍ مُّبِیْنٍ۝۶

There is not a creature that moves on the earth whose nourishment is not provided by God, whose place of sojourning and depositing is not known to Him. All things conform to a manifest law.

وَ هُوَ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضَ فِیْ سِتَّةِ اَیَّامٍ وَّ كَانَ عَرْشُهٗ عَلَی الْمَآءِ لِیَبْلُوَكُمْ اَیُّكُمْ اَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا ؕ وَ لَىِٕنْ قُلْتَ اِنَّكُمْ مَّبْعُوْثُوْنَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ الْمَوْتِ لَیَقُوْلَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْۤا اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ۝۷

It is He who created the heavens and the earth In six spans, and has control over the waters (of life) so that he may bring out the best that everyone of you could do. Yet if you said to them: "You shall certainly be raised from the dead," the unbelievers will say: "This will be nothing but sorcery."

وَ لَىِٕنْ اَخَّرْنَا عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابَ اِلٰۤی اُمَّةٍ مَّعْدُوْدَةٍ لَّیَقُوْلُنَّ مَا یَحْبِسُهٗ ؕ اَلَا یَوْمَ یَاْتِیْهِمْ لَیْسَ مَصْرُوْفًا عَنْهُمْ وَ حَاقَ بِهِمْ مَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ یَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ۠۝۸

If We defer their punishment for a certain time, they will say: "What is keeping it back?" And yet, the day it comes, they will not be able to avert it; and what they used to laugh at will encompass them.

وَ لَىِٕنْ اَذَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنَّا رَحْمَةً ثُمَّ نَزَعْنٰهَا مِنْهُ ۚ اِنَّهٗ لَیَـُٔوْسٌ كَفُوْرٌ۝۹

If We allow man to enjoy Our favours, and then take them away from him, he becomes despondent and ungrateful.

وَ لَىِٕنْ اَذَقْنٰهُ نَعْمَآءَ بَعْدَ ضَرَّآءَ مَسَّتْهُ لَیَقُوْلَنَّ ذَهَبَ السَّیِّاٰتُ عَنِّیْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ لَفَرِحٌ فَخُوْرٌۙ۝۱۰

If We let him taste Our favours after adversity, he says: "Misfortune has left me," and begins to brag and exult,
