Salam aleikum. This is the Quran, a new translation by M A. S Abdul
Halim me learn
this begins just number 12.
There is not a creature that moves on Earth, whose provision is not
his concern.
He knows where it lives and its final resting place. It is all
there in a clear record.
It is He Who created the heavens and the earth and 60s and his
throne was on water, so as to test which of you does best.
Yet Prophet, if you say to them, you will be resurrected after
death. The disbelievers are short answer. This is clearly nothing
but sorcery.
If we defer their punishment for a determined time, they are sure to
say what is holding it back. But on the day it comes upon them
nothing will divert it from them. What they marked will be all
around them.
How desperate and ungrateful man becomes when we let let him taste
our mercy and then withhold it.
And if we let him taste mercy after some harm has touched him,
he is shorter say, misfortune has gone away from me. He becomes he
becomes exalted and boastful. Not so those who are steadfast to do
good deeds, they will have forgiveness and a great reward.
So profit, are you going to abandon some part of what is
revealed to you, and let your heart be oppressed by it? Because
they say, Why is no treasure sent down to him?
Why has no angel come with him?
You are only there to warn. It is God who is in charge of
everything.
If they say he has invented it himself, say, then produce 10
invented Soros like it and call in whoever you can beside God if you
are truthful.
If they do not answer you, then you will all know that it is sent
down containing knowledge from God, and that there is no god but
him.
Then will you submit to Him, if any desire only the life of this
world, with all its finery, we shall repay them in full in this
life for their deeds, they will be given no less.
But such people will have nothing in the hereafter. But the fire.
Their work here will be fruitless, and their deeds futile.
Can they be compared to those who have clear proof from their Lord,
recited by a witness from him and before it, the book of Moses as a
guide and mercy.
These people believe in it. Whereas those groups that deny its
truth are promised the fire.
So have no doubt about it, Prophet. It is the truth from your
Lord. Though most people do not believe so.
Who could do more wrong than someone who invents lies about
God.
Such people will be brought before their Lord, and the witnesses will
say
these are the ones that lied about their Lord. God's rejection is the
do of those who do such wrong, who hinder others from God's path,
trying to make it crooked, and deny the life to come. They will
not escape on Earth and there will be no one other than God to
protect them. Their punishment will be doubled. They could not
hear and they did not see.
It is they who will have lost their souls and what they invented
will have deserted them. There is no doubt they will be the ones to
lose the most in the life to come. But those who believed it good
deeds, and humbled themselves before their Lord will be
companions and Paradise. And there they will stay.
These two groups are like the blind and the deaf as compared
with those who can see and hear well, can they be alike? How can
you not take heed?
We sent Noah to his people to say
I have come to you to give a clear warning. Worship no one but God.
I fear you will have torment on a painful day. But the prominent
disbelievers among his people said we can see that you are nothing
but a mortal like ourselves.
And it is clear to see that only the lowest among us follow you.
We cannot see how you are any better than we are. In fact, we
think you are a liar. He said
My people think,
if I did have a clear sign from my Lord, and he had given me grace of
his own, though it was hidden for you, could we force you to accept
it against your will? My people, I asked no reward for it from you.
My reward comes only from God.
I will not drive away the faithful. They are short to meet
their Lord, I can see you are foolish.
My people who could help me against God, if I drove the
faithful away, will you not take heed? I am not telling you that I
hold God's treasures, or have any knowledge of what is hidden, or
that I am an angel.
Nor do I say that God will not grant any good for those who are
despised in your eyes.
God Himself knows best, what is in their souls. If I did this, I
would be one of the wrongdoers. They said, Noah, you have argued
with us for too long. Bring down on us the punishment you threaten
us with if you were telling the truth. He said
it is God who will bring it down if he wishes and you will not be
able to escape. My advice will be no use to you If god wishes to
leave you to your delusions, He is your Lord and to Him you will be
returned.
If these disbelievers say, he has made this up, say Mohamed, if I
have made this up, I am responsible for my own crime. But
I am innocent of the crimes you come in.
It was revealed to know none of your people will believe other
than those who have already done so. So do not be distressed by
what they do.
Build the art under our watchful eyes and with our inspiration. Do
not plead with me. For those who have done evil, they will be
drowned.
So he began to build the ark. And whenever leaders of his people
passed by, they laughed at him. He said, You may scorn us now but we
will come to scorn you, you will find out who will receive a
humiliating punishment and on whom a lasting suffering will descend.
When what we commanded came and water gushed up out of the earth.
We said place on board this arc, a pair of each species and your own
family except to those against whom the sentence has already been
passed.
And those who have believed, though only a few believed with
him. He said, For the ark, in the name of God, it shall sail and
anchor. My God is Most Forgiving and Merciful.
It sailed with them on waves like mountains, and Noah called out to
his son who stayed away, come aboard with us, my son, do not
stay with the disbelievers.
But he replied,
I will seek refuge on a mountain to save me from the water. Noah
said, today there is no refuge from what God has commanded.
Except for those on whom He has mercy. The waves cut them off from
each other and he was among the drowned.
Then it was said,
Earth swallow up your water and sky hold back. And the water
subsided. The command was fulfilled.
The Ark settled on Mount Judy, and it was said, Gone are those evil
doing people now are called out to his Lord saying, My Lord, my son
was one of my family and your promise is true. And you are the
most just of all judges.
God said
no, he was not one of your family. What he did was not right. Do not
ask me for things you know nothing about. I am warning you not to be
foolish. He said, My Lord, I take refuge with you from asking for
things I know nothing about. If you do not forgive me and have
mercy on me, I shall be one of the losers. And it was said Noah,
descend in peace from us with blessings on you and some of the
communities that will spring from those who are with you. There will
be others we will we will allow to enjoy life for a time.
But then a painful promet punishment from us will afflict
them.
These accounts are part of what was beyond your knowledge one
month. We reveal them to you. Neither you nor your people knew
them before now. So be patient. The future belongs to those who
are aware of God to the art
We sent their brotherhood. He said, My people worship God.
You have no god other than Him. You are only making up lies. I
asked no reward from you, my people, my reward comes only from
Him Who created me. Why do you not use your reason?
My people, ask forgiveness from your Lord and return to Him. He
will send down for you rain in abundance from the sky and give
you extra strength. Do not turn away and be lost in your sins.
They replied, who you have not brought us any clear evidence, we
will not forsake our gods on the strength of your word alone. Nor
will we believe in you.
All we can say is that one of our gods may have afflict inflicted
some harm on you.
He said, I call God to witness and you two are my witnesses, that I
disowned those you set up as partners with God. So plot against
me, all of you, and give me no respite. I put my trust in God, my
lord, and your Lord, there is no moving creature, which he does not
control. My Lord's way is straight.
But if you turn away, then I have conveyed the message with which I
was sent to you. And my Lord will bring another people in your
place. You cannot do him any harm. It is my lord who protects
everything.
And so when our judgment came to pass by our grace, we saved who'd
and his fellow believers, we saved them from a severe punishment.
These were the odd, they rejected their Lord signs, disobeyed his
messengers, and follow the command of every obstinate tyrant. They
were rejected in this life, and so they shall be on the Day of
Judgment. Yes, the odd denied their Lord. So away with the odd
the people of Hood,
to the farmer, we sent their brother Sunday. He said, My people
worship God, you have no god other than him. It was he who brought
you into being from the earth, and made you inhabited. So ask
forgiveness from him and turn back to him. My Lord is near and ready
to answer.
They said, Sally, we used to have such great hope in you.
Will you forbid us to worship what our fathers worshipped?
We are in grave doubt about what you are asking us to do.
He said, My people just think, if I did have clear proof from my
Lord, and if he had given me mercy of his own, who could protect me
from God, if I disobeyed Him,
you would only make my last grader.
My people, this camel belongs to God assigned for you. So leave it
the pastor on God's earth and do not harm it. Or you will soon be
punished.
But they hamstrung it. So he said, enjoy life for another three days.
This warning will not prove false.
And so when our command was fulfilled by our mercy, we save
solid and his fellow believers from the disgrace of that day.
Prophet. It is your Lord who is the strong, the mighty one.
The blast struck the evil doers and they lay dead in their homes
as though they had never lived and flourish there. Yes, the thumb who
denied their Lord, so away with the thumb
to Abraham, our messengers brought good news. They said, peace, He
answered, peace, and without delay, he brought in a roasted
calf.
When he saw that their hands did not reach towards the meal. He
found this strange and became afraid of them.
But they said, Do not be afraid. We have been sent against the
people of loot.
His wife was standing nearby and laughed. We gave her good news of
Isaac and after him of Jacob. She said, Alas for me. How am I to
bear a child when I am an old woman? And my husband here is an
old man. That would be a strange thing. They said, are you
astonished at what God ordains the grace of God and His blessings be
upon you people of this house.
For He is worthy of all plant praise and glory.
Then when the fear left Abraham, and the good news came to him, he
pleaded with us for lots people. For Abraham was forbearing, tender
hearted and devout. Abraham, cease your pleading, what your Lord has
ordained has come about punishment is coming to them, which cannot be
turned back.
And when Our messengers came along,
he was anxious for them, feeling powerless to protect them, and
said, This is a truly terrible day. His people came rushing
towards him, they used to commit foul deeds. He said, My People,
here are my daughters. They are cleaner for you. So have some fear
of God and do not disgrace me with my guests. Is there not a single
right minded man among you? They said, You know very well, that we
have no claim whatsoever to your daughters, you know very well,
what we want. He said,
If only I had the strength to stop you, or could rely on strong
support.
They, the messengers said, Look, we are your Lord's messengers,
they will not reach you. Leave with your household in the dead of
night and let none of you turn back. Only your wife will suffer
the fate that befalls the others.
their appointed time is the morning is the morning not near.
And so when what we had ordained came about, we turn their town
upside down and rain down stones have baked clay on it, layer upon
layer marked from your Lord. It is not far from the evildoers
and 2 million. We sent their Brother Chu a. He said, My people
worship God. You have no god other than Him. Do not give short
measure nor short wait.
I see you are prospering. But I fear you will have torment on a
overwhelming day. My people in fairness, give full measure and
wait. Do not withhold from people things that are rightly theirs,
and do not spread corruption in the land.
What lasts with God is best for you if you are believers, I am not
your keeper. They said should i Does your prayer tell you that we
should abandon what our forefathers worshipped and refrain
from doing whatever we please with our own property? Indeed, you are
a tolerant and sensible man. He answered.
My people, can you not see what if I am acting on clear evidence from
my Lord? He himself has given me good provision. I do not want to
do what I am forbidding you to do? I only want to put things right as
far as I can. I cannot succeed without God's help.
I trust in Him and always turn to him.
My people do not loot let your opposition to me bring upon you a
similar fate to the peoples of Noah, or Houde or Solly. The
people of loot are not far away from you. Ask forgiveness from
your Lord and turn to him in repentance. My Lord is merciful
and most loving.
They said shockwave we do not understand much of what you say.
And we find you very weak in our myths.
But for your tribe, we would have stoned you for you have no great
status among us. He said, My People, does my tribe have more
power over us and God?
How can you ignore him?
My Lord is fully aware of everything you do.
My people do whatever is within your power, and I will do
likewise. Soon you will know who will receive a disgraceful
punishment and who is a liar. Watch out and so ally
when what we had ordained came about in our mercy we saved Shu
Ayub and his fellow believers. But a mighty blast struck the
wrongdoers by morning they lay dead in their homes, as if they
had never lived and flourished there. Yes, away with the people
of median, just like the thumb.
We also sent Moses with our signs and clear authority to Pharaoh and
his supporters, but they followed Pharaohs orders and Pharaohs
orders were not rightly guided he will
be at the forefront of his people on the Day of Resurrection,
leading them down towards the fire. What a foul drinking place
to be led to. They were pursued by God's rejection in this life, and
will be on the day of resurrection to what a foul gift to be given.
We relate to you Mohammed, such accounts of earlier towns, some of
them are still standing, some of them have been mown down. We did
not wrong them, they wrong themselves. Their gods which they
called on beside God, were no use to them. When what your Lord had
ordained came about, they only increased their ruin,
such as the punishment of your Lord, for towns in the midst of
their sins, his punishment is terrible and severe.
There truly is a sign in this for anyone who fears the punishment of
the Hereafter.
That is a day in which all people will be gathered together a day
for all to see.
We are delaying it only for a specified period. And when that
day comes, no soul will speak except by His permission, and some
of them will be wretched and some happy.
The wretched ones will be in the fire, sighing and groaning there
to remain for as long as the heavens and earth endure, unless
your Lord wills otherwise. Your Lord carries out whatever He
wills.
As for those who have been blessed, they will be in paradise,
there to remain as long as the heavens and earth endure, unless
your Lord wills otherwise, an unceasing gift.
So Prophet, have no doubt about what these people worship. It is
merely what their fathers worshipped before them. And we
shall certainly give them their share in full without any
reduction.
We gave Moses the Scripture before you,
but differences arose about it. And if it had not been for a prior
word from your Lord, a decision would already have been made
between them. Though they are in grave doubt about it.
Your Lord will give everyone full due for whatever they have done.
He is aware of everything they do.
So keep to the right course as you have been commanded. Together with
those who have turned to God with you. Do not overstep the limits
for He sees everything you do. Do not rely on those who do evil, or
the fire may touch you and then you will have no one to protect
you from God, nor will you be helped
Prophet, keep up the prayer at both ends of the day and during
parts of the night. For good things drive that away. This is a
reminder for those who are aware.
Be steadfast, God does not let the rewards of those who do good go to
waste. If only there had been among the generations before your
time, people with a remnant of good sense to forbid corruption on
the earth. We saved only a few of them, while the unjust pursued the
enjoyment of plenty and persisted in sin. Your Lord would not
destroy any town without cause if it's people were acting
righteously.
If your Lord had pleased, he would have made all people a single
community. But they continue to have their differences except
those on whom Your Lord has mercy. For He created them to be this
way, and the word of your Lord is final. I shall definitely fill a
* with both jinn and men.
So Mohammed,
which tell you the stories of the prophets, to make your heart firm,
and in these accounts, truth has come to you, as well as lessons
and reminders for the believers saith it say to those who do not
believe, do whatever you can. We too, are doing what we can and
wait. We too are waiting.
All that is hidden in the heavens and earth belongs to God. And all
authority goes back to him. So Prophet, worship him and put your
trust in him. Your Lord is never unaware of what all of you are
doing.
This is the end of Surah number 11.
Surah number 12. Joseph,
in the name of God, the Lord have mercy, the Giver of Mercy.
Alif Lam, rah.
These are the verses of the scripture that makes things clear.
We have
sent it down as an Arabic Quran, so that you people may understand.
We tell you Prophet, the best of stories and revealing this Quran
to you. Before this, you were one of those who knew nothing about
them. Joseph said to his father, Father, I dreamed of 11 stars, and
the sun and the moon. I saw them all bow down before me. And he
replied, My son, tell your brothers nothing of the stream, or
they may plot to harm you. Satan is man sworn enemy.
This is about how your Lord will choose you, teach you to interpret
dreams and perfect his blessing on you. And the house of Jacob, just
as he perfected it earlier, on your forefathers, Abraham and is
hawk. Your Lord is all knowing, and wise.
There are lessons in the story of Joseph and his brothers for all
who seek them.
The brothers said to each other, although we are many, Joseph and
his brother are dear to our father than we are. Our father is clearly
in the wrong.
One of them said, Kill Joseph would banish him to another land,
and your father's attention will be free to turn to you.
After that, you can be righteous. Another of them said, do not kill
Joseph. But if you must throw him into the hidden depths of a well,
where some caravan may pick him up,
they said to their father, why do you not trust us with Joseph? We
wish him well. Send him with us tomorrow and he will enjoy himself
and play. We will take good care of him. He replied.
The thought of you taking him away with you worries me. I am afraid a
wolf may eat him when you are not paying attention.
They said, If a wolf were to eat him when there are so many of us,
we would truly be losers.
Then they took him away with him, resolved upon throwing him into
the hidden depths of well. We inspired him saying,
you will tell them of all this at a time when they do not realize
who you are.
And a night for they returned to their father weeping.
They said we went off erasing one another, leaving Joseph behind
with our things and a wolf aid him.
You will not believe us, though we are telling the truth.
And they showed him his shirt, deceptively stained with blood. He
cried. No. Your souls have prompted you to do wrong.
But it is best to be patient. From God alone, I seek help to bear
what you are saying.
Some travelers came by
they sent someone to draw water and let down his bucket.
Good news, he exclaimed. Here is a boy.
They hit him like a piece of merchandise. God was well aware of
what they did, and then sold him for a small price for a few pieces
of silver. So Little did they value him
the Egyptian who bought him set to his wife, look after him well, he
may be useful to us, or we may adopt him as a son. In this way,
we settled Joseph in that land, and later taught him how to
interpret dreams. God always prevails in his purpose. Though
most people do not realize it.
When he reached maturity, we gave him judgment and knowledge. This
is how we reward those who do good.
The woman in whose house he was living tried to seduce him.
She bolted the doors and said, Come to me. And he replied, God
forbid my master has been good to me. wrongdoers never prosper.
She made for him and he would have succumbed to her if he had not
seen evidence of his Lord.
We did this in order to keep evil and indecency away from him.
For he was truly one of our chosen servants.
They raised for the door.
She tore his shirt from behind and at the door they met her husband.
She said
what other than prison or painful punishment should be the reward of
someone who tried to dishonor your wife. But he said she tried to
seduce me. A member of her household suggested
if his shirt is torn at the front than it is she who is telling the
truth and He who is lying.
But if it is torn at the back
Then she is lying and he is telling the truth.
When the husband saw that the shirt was torn at the back, he
said,
this is another instance of women's treachery. Your treachery
is truly great. Joseph, overlook this, that you wife asked
forgiveness for your sin you have done wrong.
Some women of the city said the governor's wife is trying to
seduce her slave. Love for him consumes her heart.
It is clear to us that she has gone astray.
When she heard their malicious talk, she prepared a banquet and
sent for them, giving each of them knife. She said to Joseph, come
out and show yourself to them.
And when the women saw him, they were stunned by his beauty and cut
their hands exclaiming, great God, he cannot be mortal. He must be a
precious angel. She said,
this is the one you blamed me for. I tried to seduce him and he
wanted to remain chaste.
But if he does not do what I come in now, he will be put in prison
in degradative. Joseph said, My Lord, I would prefer prison to
what these women are calling me to do.
If you do not protect me from their treachery, I shall yield to
them and do wrong.
And his LORD answered his prayer and protected him from their
treachery. He is the All Hearing the All Knowing.
In the end, they thought it best after seeing all the signs of his
innocence, that they should imprison him for a while. Two
young men went into prison alongside him. One of them said, I
dream that I was pressing grapes. The other said, I dream that I was
carrying bread on my head, and that the birds were eating it.
They said, tell us what this means, we can see that you are a
knowledgeable man.
He said, I can tell you what this means, if for any meal, provided
for you arrives. This is part of what My Lord has taught me.
I reject the face of those who disbelieve in God and deny the
life to come.
And I follow the faith of my forefathers, Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob.
We would never worship anything beside God. This is part of God's
grace to us and to all mankind. But most people are ungrateful.
fellow prisoners would many diverse Gods be better than God,
the One, the all powerful. All those you worship instead of
hammer me your names, you and your forefathers invented,
names for which God has sent down no sanction.
authority belongs to God alone, and he orders you to worship none
but Him.
This is the true faith. Though most people do not realize it.
fellow prisoners, one of you will serve as master with wine, the
other will be crucified and the birds will peck in his head.
That is the end of the matter on which you asked my opinion.
Joseph said to the one he knew would be saved, mentioned me to
your master.
But Satan made him forget to do this. And so Joseph stayed in
prison for a number of years.
The king said, I dreamed about seven fat cows being eaten by
seven lean ones, seven green ears of corn and seven others withered
councilors if you can interpret dreams tell me the meaning of my
dream. They said
these are confusing dreams and we are not skilled at dream
interpretation.
But the prisoner who had been freed at last remember Joseph and
said, I shall tell you what this means give me leave to go.
truthful, Joseph. Tell us the meaning of seven fat cows being
eaten by seven lean months, seven green ears of corn and seven
others were withered. Then I can return to the people to inform
them. Joseph said
you will so for seven consecutive years as usual. store all that you
reap left in the ear apart from the little you eat.
After that
will come seven years of hardship which will consume all but a
little of what you stored up for them. After that will come a year
when the people will have abundant rain and we'll press grapes. The
king said Bring him to me.
But when the messenger came to fetch Joseph, he said go back to
your master
and ask him about what happened to those women who cut their hands.
My lord knows all about their treachery
The king asked the woman what happened when you tried to seduce
Joseph?
They said God forbid we know nothing bad of him. And the
governor's wife said Now the truth is out. It was I who tried to
seduce him he is an honest man
Joseph said
this was for my master to know that I did not betray him behind
his back. God does not guide the mischief of the treacherous
