Read Surah Muhammad

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ مَوْلَی الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَ اَنَّ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ لَا مَوْلٰی لَهُمْ۠۝۱۱

This is so for God is the friend of those who believe while the unbelievers have no friend.

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُدْخِلُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَ عَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ ؕ وَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا یَتَمَتَّعُوْنَ وَ یَاْكُلُوْنَ كَمَا تَاْكُلُ الْاَنْعَامُ وَ النَّارُ مَثْوًی لَّهُمْ۝۱۲

Verily God will admit those who believe and do the right into gardens with streams of water running by. But the unbelievers revel and carouse and subsist like beasts, and Hell will be their residence.

وَ كَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ قَرْیَةٍ هِیَ اَشَدُّ قُوَّةً مِّنْ قَرْیَتِكَ الَّتِیْۤ اَخْرَجَتْكَ ۚ اَهْلَكْنٰهُمْ فَلَا نَاصِرَ لَهُمْ۝۱۳

How many were the habitations, mightier than your city which has turned you out, which We destroyed; and they did not have a helper.

اَفَمَنْ كَانَ عَلٰی بَیِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ كَمَنْ زُیِّنَ لَهٗ سُوْٓءُ عَمَلِهٖ وَ اتَّبَعُوْۤا اَهْوَآءَهُمْ۝۱۴

Can one who stands on a clear proof from his Lord, be like one enamoured of his evil deeds and follows his inane desires?

مَثَلُ الْجَنَّةِ الَّتِیْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ ؕ فِیْهَاۤ اَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ مَّآءٍ غَیْرِ اٰسِنٍ ۚ وَ اَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ لَّبَنٍ لَّمْ یَتَغَیَّرْ طَعْمُهٗ ۚ وَ اَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ خَمْرٍ لَّذَّةٍ لِّلشّٰرِبِیْنَ ۚ۬ وَ اَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ عَسَلٍ مُّصَفًّی ؕ وَ لَهُمْ فِیْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرٰتِ وَ مَغْفِرَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهِمْ ؕ كَمَنْ هُوَ خَالِدٌ فِی النَّارِ وَ سُقُوْا مَآءً حَمِیْمًا فَقَطَّعَ اَمْعَآءَهُمْ۝۱۵

The semblance of Paradise promised the pious and devout (is that of a garden) with streams of water that will not go rank, and rivers of milk whose taste will not undergo a change, and rivers of wine delectable to drinkers, and streams of purified honey, and fruits of every kind in them, and forgiveness of their Lord. Are these like those who will live for ever in the Fire and be given boiling water to drink which will cut their intestines to shreds?

وَ مِنْهُمْ مَّنْ یَّسْتَمِعُ اِلَیْكَ ۚ حَتّٰۤی اِذَا خَرَجُوْا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ قَالُوْا لِلَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ مَا ذَا قَالَ اٰنِفًا ۫ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ الَّذِیْنَ طَبَعَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰی قُلُوْبِهِمْ وَ اتَّبَعُوْۤا اَهْوَآءَهُمْ۝۱۶

There are some who listen to you; but as soon as they go from you they say to those who were given knowledge: "What is this he is saying now?" They are those whose hearts have been sealed by God, and they follow their own lusts.

وَ الَّذِیْنَ اهْتَدَوْا زَادَهُمْ هُدًی وَّ اٰتٰىهُمْ تَقْوٰىهُمْ۝۱۷

But those who are rightly guided will be given greater guidance by Him, and they will have their intrinsic piety.

فَهَلْ یَنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَّا السَّاعَةَ اَنْ تَاْتِیَهُمْ بَغْتَةً ۚ فَقَدْ جَآءَ اَشْرَاطُهَا ۚ فَاَنّٰی لَهُمْ اِذَا جَآءَتْهُمْ ذِكْرٰىهُمْ۝۱۸

Do they wait for any thing but the Hour (of change), that it may come upon them suddenly? Its signs have already appeared. How then will they be warned when it has come upon them?

فَاعْلَمْ اَنَّهٗ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْۢبِكَ وَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنٰتِ ؕ وَ اللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ مُتَقَلَّبَكُمْ وَ مَثْوٰىكُمْ۠۝۱۹

Know then, therefore, there is no god but He, and ask forgiveness for your sins and those of believing men and women. God knows your wanderings and your destination.

وَ یَقُوْلُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَوْ لَا نُزِّلَتْ سُوْرَةٌ ۚ فَاِذَاۤ اُنْزِلَتْ سُوْرَةٌ مُّحْكَمَةٌ وَّ ذُكِرَ فِیْهَا الْقِتَالُ ۙ رَاَیْتَ الَّذِیْنَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ یَّنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَیْكَ نَظَرَ الْمَغْشِیِّ عَلَیْهِ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ ؕ فَاَوْلٰی لَهُمْۚ۝۲۰

Those who believe say: "How is it no Surah was revealed?" But when a categorical Surah is revealed that mentions war, you should see those who are sceptical staring at you like a man in the swoon of death. Alas the woe for them!
