Sura - 26 The Poets
[26:0] In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful [26:1] T. S. M. (Ta, Seen, Mim) [26:2] These (letters) constitute proofs of this clarifying scripture. [26:3] You may blame yourself that they are not believers. [26:4] If we will, we can send from the sky a sign that forces their necks to bow. The Quran's Mathematical Code [26:5] Whenever a reminder from the Most Gracious comes to them, that is new, they turn away in aversion. [26:6] Since they disbelieved, they have incurred the consequences of their heedlessness. [26:7] Have they not seen the earth, and how many kinds of beautiful plants we have grown thereon? [26:8] This should be a sufficient proof for them, but most of them are not believers. [26:9] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Moses [26:10] Recall that your Lord called Moses: "Go to the transgressing people. [26:11] "Pharaoh's people; perhaps they reform." [26:12] He said, "My Lord, I fear lest they disbelieve me. [26:13] "I may lose my temper. My tongue gets tied; send for my brother Aaron. [26:14] "Also, they consider me a fugitive; I fear lest they kill me." [26:15] He said, "No, (they will not). Go with My proofs. We will be with you, listening. [26:16] "Go to Pharaoh and say, `We are messengers from the Lord of the universe.' [26:17] " `Let the Children of Israel go.' " [26:18] He said, "Did we not raise you from infancy, and you spent many years with us? [26:19] "Then you committed the crime that you committed, and you were ungrateful." *26:1 See Appendix 1 for the significance of these previously mysterious letters. [26:20] He said, "Indeed, I did it when I was astray. [26:21] "Then I fled, when I feared you, and my Lord endowed me with wisdom and made me one of the messengers. [26:22] "You are boasting that you did me a favor, while enslaving the Children of Israel!" [26:23] Pharaoh said, "What is the Lord of the universe?" [26:24] He said, "The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them. You should be certain about this." [26:25] He said to those around him, "Did you hear this?" [26:26] He said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your ancestors." [26:27] He said, "Your messenger who is sent to you is crazy." [26:28] He said, "The Lord of the east and the west, and everything between them, if you understand." [26:29] He said, "If you accept any god, other than me, I will throw you in the prison." [26:30] He said, "What if I show you something profound?" [26:31] He said, "Then produce it, if you are truthful." [26:32] He then threw his staff, whereupon it became a profound snake. [26:33] And he took out his hand, and it was white to the beholders. [26:34] He said to the elders around him, "This is an experienced magician. [26:35] "He wants to take you out of your land, with his magic. What do you suggest?" [26:36] They said, "Respite him and his brother, and send summoners to every town. [26:37] "Let them summon every experienced magician." [26:38] The magicians were gathered at the appointed time, on the appointed day. [26:39] The people were told: "Come one and all; let us gather together here. [26:40] "Maybe we will follow the magicians, if they are the winners." [26:41] When the magicians came, they said to Pharaoh, "Do we get paid, if we are the winners?" [26:42] He said, "Yes indeed; you will even be close to me." [26:43] Moses said to them "Throw what you are going to throw." [26:44] They threw their ropes and sticks, and said, "By Pharaoh's majesty, we will be the victors." [26:45] Moses threw his staff, whereupon it swallowed what they fabricated. The Experts See the Truth [26:46] The magicians fell prostrate. [26:47] They said, "We believe in the Lord of the universe. [26:48] "The Lord of Moses and Aaron." [26:49] He said, "Did you believe with him before I give you permission? He must be your teacher, who taught you magic. You will surely find out. I will sever your hands and feet on alternate sides. I will crucify you all." [26:50] They said, "This will not change our decision; to our Lord we will return. [26:51] "We hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, especially that we are the first believers." [26:52] We inspired Moses: "Travel with My servants; you will be pursued." [26:53] Pharaoh sent to the cities callers. [26:54] (Proclaiming,) "This is a small gang. [26:55] "They are now opposing us. [26:56] "Let us all beware of them." The Inevitable Retribution [26:57] Consequently, we deprived them of gardens and springs. [26:58] And treasures and an honorable position. [26:59] Then we made it an inheritance for the Children of Israel. [26:60] They pursued them towards the east. [26:61] When both parties saw each other, Moses' people said, "We will be caught." [26:62] He said, "No way. My Lord is with me; He will guide me." [26:63] We then inspired Moses: "Strike the sea with your staff," whereupon it parted. Each part was like a great hill. [26:64] We then delivered them all. [26:65] We thus saved Moses and all those who were with him. [26:66] And we drowned the others. [26:67] This should be a sufficient proof, but most people are not believers. [26:68] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Abraham [26:69] Narrate to them Abraham's history. [26:70] He said to his father and his people, "What is this you are worshipping?" [26:71] They said, "We worship statues; we are totally devoted to them." [26:72] He said, "Can they hear you when you implore? [26:73] "Can they benefit you, or harm you?" [26:74] They said, "No; but we found our parents doing this." [26:75] He said, "Do you see these idols that you worship. [26:76] "You and your ancestors. [26:77] "I am against them, for I am devoted only to the Lord of the universe. [26:78] "The One who created me, and guided me. [26:79] "The One who feeds me and waters me. [26:80] "And when I get sick, He heals me. [26:81] "The One who puts me to death, then brings me back to life. [26:82] "The One who hopefully will forgive my sins on the Day of Judgment. [26:83] "My Lord, grant me wisdom, and include me with the righteous. [26:84] "Let the example I set for the future generations be a good one. [26:85] "Make me one of the inheritors of the blissful Paradise. [26:86] "And forgive my father, for he has gone astray. [26:87] "And do not forsake me on the Day of Resurrection." [26:88] That is the day when neither money, nor children, can help. [26:89] Only those who come to GOD with their whole heart (will be saved). [26:90] Paradise will be presented to the righteous. [26:91] Hell will be set up for the strayers. They Will Disown Their Idols [26:92] They will be asked, "Where are the idols you had worshipped [26:93] "beside GOD? Can they help you now? Can they help themselves?" [26:94] They will be thrown therein, together with the strayers. [26:95] And all of Satan's soldiers. [26:96] They will say as they feud therein, [26:97] "By GOD, we were far astray. [26:98] "How could we set you up to rank with the Lord of the universe? [26:99] "Those who misled us were wicked. [26:100] "Now we have no intercessors. Noah [26:101] "Nor a single close friend. [26:102] "If only we could get another chance, we would then believe." [26:103] This should be a good lesson. But most people are not believers. [26:104] Your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. [26:105] The people of Noah disbelieved the messengers. [26:106] Their brother Noah said to them, "Would you not be righteous? [26:107] "I am an honest messenger to you. [26:108] "You shall reverence GOD and obey me. [26:109] "I do not ask you for any wage. My wage comes from the Lord of the universe. [26:110] "You shall reverence GOD and obey me." [26:111] They said, "How can we believe with you, when the worst among us have followed you?" [26:112] He said, "How do I know what they did? [26:113] "Their judgment rests only with my Lord, if you could perceive. [26:114] "I will never dismiss the believers. [26:115] "I am no more than a clarifying warner." [26:116] They said, "Unless you refrain, O Noah, you will be stoned." [26:117] He said, "My Lord, my people have disbelieved me. [26:118] "Grant me victory against them, and deliver me and my company of believers." [26:119] We delivered him and those who accompanied him in the loaded ark. [26:120] Then we drowned the others. [26:121] This should be a lesson, but most people are not believers. [26:122] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Hud [26:123] `Aad disbelieved the messengers. [26:124] Their brother Hood said to them, "Would you not be righteous?

[26:3] You may blame yourself that they are not believers. [26:4] If we will, we can send from the sky a sign that forces their necks to bow. The Quran's Mathematical Code [26:5] Whenever a reminder from the Most Gracious comes to them, that is new, they turn away in aversion.

[26:8] This should be a sufficient proof for them, but most of them are not believers. [26:9] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Moses [26:10] Recall that your Lord called Moses: "Go to the transgressing people. [26:11] "Pharaoh's people; perhaps they reform." [26:12] He said, "My Lord, I fear lest they disbelieve me. [26:13] "I may lose my temper. My tongue gets tied; send for my brother Aaron. [26:14] "Also, they consider me a fugitive; I fear lest they kill me." [26:15] He said, "No, (they will not).

" [26:18] He said, "Did we not raise you from infancy, and you spent many years with us? [26:19] "Then you committed the crime that you committed, and you were ungrateful." *26:1 See Appendix 1 for the significance of these previously mysterious letters. [26:20] He said, "Indeed, I did it when I was astray. [26:21] "Then I fled, when I feared you, and my Lord endowed me with wisdom and made me one of the messengers. [26:22] "You are boasting that you did me a favor, while enslaving the Children of Israel!" [26:23] Pharaoh said, "What is the Lord of the universe?" [26:24] He said, "The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them. You should be certain about this." [26:25] He said to those around him, "Did you hear this?" [26:26] He said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your ancestors." [26:27] He said, "Your messenger who is sent to you is crazy." [26:28] He said, "The Lord of the east and the west, and everything between them, if you understand." [26:29] He said, "If you accept any god, other than me, I will throw you in the prison." [26:30] He said, "What if I show you something profound?" [26:31] He said, "Then produce it, if you are truthful." [26:32] He then threw his staff, whereupon it became a profound snake. [26:33] And he took out his hand, and it was white to the beholders. [26:34] He said to the elders around him, "This is an experienced magician. [26:35] "He wants to take you out of your land, with his magic. What do you suggest?" [26:36] They said, "Respite him and his brother, and send summoners to every town.

[26:39] The people were told: "Come one and all; let us gather together here. [26:40] "Maybe we will follow the magicians, if they are the winners." [26:41] When the magicians came, they said to Pharaoh, "Do we get paid, if we are the winners?" [26:42] He said, "Yes indeed; you will even be close to me." [26:43] Moses said to them "Throw what you are going to throw." [26:44] They threw their ropes and sticks, and said, "By Pharaoh's majesty, we will be the victors." [26:45] Moses threw his staff, whereupon it swallowed what they fabricated. The Experts See the Truth [26:46] The magicians fell prostrate. [26:47] They said, "We believe in the Lord of the universe. [26:48] "The Lord of Moses and Aaron." [26:49] He said, "Did you believe with him before I give you permission? He must be your teacher, who taught you magic. You will surely find out.

[26:62] He said, "No way. My Lord is with me; He will guide me." [26:63] We then inspired Moses: "Strike the sea with your staff," whereupon it parted. Each part was like a great hill.

[26:72] He said, "Can they hear you when you implore? [26:73] "Can they benefit you, or harm you?" [26:74] They said, "No; but we found our parents doing this." [26:75] He said, "Do you see these idols that you worship. [26:76] "You and your ancestors. [26:77] "I am against them, for I am devoted only to the Lord of the universe.

[26:116] They said, "Unless you refrain, O Noah, you will be stoned." [26:117] He said, "My Lord, my people have disbelieved me. [26:118] "Grant me victory against them, and deliver me and my company of believers." [26:119] We delivered him and those who accompanied him in the loaded ark. [26:120] Then we drowned the others. [26:121] This should be a lesson, but most people are not believers. [26:122] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Hud [26:123] `Aad disbelieved the messengers. [26:124] Their brother Hood said to them, "Would you not be righteous?
[26:6] Since they disbelieved, they have incurred the consequences of their heedlessness. [26:7] Have they not seen the earth, and how many kinds of beautiful plants we have grown thereon? [26:8] This should be a sufficient proof for them, but most of them are not believers. [26:9] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Moses [26:10] Recall that your Lord called Moses: "Go to the transgressing people. [26:11] "Pharaoh's people; perhaps they reform." [26:12] He said, "My Lord, I fear lest they disbelieve me. [26:13] "I may lose my temper. My tongue gets tied; send for my brother Aaron. [26:14] "Also, they consider me a fugitive; I fear lest they kill me." [26:15] He said, "No, (they will not). Go with My proofs. We will be with you, listening. [26:16] "Go to Pharaoh and say, `We are messengers from the Lord of the universe.' [26:17] " `Let the Children of Israel go.' " [26:18] He said, "Did we not raise you from infancy, and you spent many years with us? [26:19] "Then you committed the crime that you committed, and you were ungrateful." *26:1 See Appendix 1 for the significance of these previously mysterious letters. [26:20] He said, "Indeed, I did it when I was astray. [26:21] "Then I fled, when I feared you, and my Lord endowed me with wisdom and made me one of the messengers. [26:22] "You are boasting that you did me a favor, while enslaving the Children of Israel!" [26:23] Pharaoh said, "What is the Lord of the universe?" [26:24] He said, "The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them. You should be certain about this." [26:25] He said to those around him, "Did you hear this?" [26:26] He said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your ancestors." [26:27] He said, "Your messenger who is sent to you is crazy." [26:28] He said, "The Lord of the east and the west, and everything between them, if you understand." [26:29] He said, "If you accept any god, other than me, I will throw you in the prison." [26:30] He said, "What if I show you something profound?" [26:31] He said, "Then produce it, if you are truthful." [26:32] He then threw his staff, whereupon it became a profound snake. [26:33] And he took out his hand, and it was white to the beholders. [26:34] He said to the elders around him, "This is an experienced magician. [26:35] "He wants to take you out of your land, with his magic. What do you suggest?" [26:36] They said, "Respite him and his brother, and send summoners to every town. [26:37] "Let them summon every experienced magician." [26:38] The magicians were gathered at the appointed time, on the appointed day. [26:39] The people were told: "Come one and all; let us gather together here. [26:40] "Maybe we will follow the magicians, if they are the winners." [26:41] When the magicians came, they said to Pharaoh, "Do we get paid, if we are the winners?" [26:42] He said, "Yes indeed; you will even be close to me." [26:43] Moses said to them "Throw what you are going to throw." [26:44] They threw their ropes and sticks, and said, "By Pharaoh's majesty, we will be the victors." [26:45] Moses threw his staff, whereupon it swallowed what they fabricated. The Experts See the Truth [26:46] The magicians fell prostrate. [26:47] They said, "We believe in the Lord of the universe. [26:48] "The Lord of Moses and Aaron." [26:49] He said, "Did you believe with him before I give you permission? He must be your teacher, who taught you magic. You will surely find out. I will sever your hands and feet on alternate sides. I will crucify you all." [26:50] They said, "This will not change our decision; to our Lord we will return. [26:51] "We hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, especially that we are the first believers." [26:52] We inspired Moses: "Travel with My servants; you will be pursued." [26:53] Pharaoh sent to the cities callers. [26:54] (Proclaiming,) "This is a small gang. [26:55] "They are now opposing us. [26:56] "Let us all beware of them." The Inevitable Retribution [26:57] Consequently, we deprived them of gardens and springs. [26:58] And treasures and an honorable position. [26:59] Then we made it an inheritance for the Children of Israel. [26:60] They pursued them towards the east. [26:61] When both parties saw each other, Moses' people said, "We will be caught." [26:62] He said, "No way. My Lord is with me; He will guide me." [26:63] We then inspired Moses: "Strike the sea with your staff," whereupon it parted. Each part was like a great hill. [26:64] We then delivered them all. [26:65] We thus saved Moses and all those who were with him. [26:66] And we drowned the others. [26:67] This should be a sufficient proof, but most people are not believers. [26:68] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Abraham [26:69] Narrate to them Abraham's history. [26:70] He said to his father and his people, "What is this you are worshipping?" [26:71] They said, "We worship statues; we are totally devoted to them." [26:72] He said, "Can they hear you when you implore? [26:73] "Can they benefit you, or harm you?" [26:74] They said, "No; but we found our parents doing this." [26:75] He said, "Do you see these idols that you worship. [26:76] "You and your ancestors. [26:77] "I am against them, for I am devoted only to the Lord of the universe. [26:78] "The One who created me, and guided me. [26:79] "The One who feeds me and waters me. [26:80] "And when I get sick, He heals me. [26:81] "The One who puts me to death, then brings me back to life. [26:82] "The One who hopefully will forgive my sins on the Day of Judgment. [26:83] "My Lord, grant me wisdom, and include me with the righteous. [26:84] "Let the example I set for the future generations be a good one. [26:85] "Make me one of the inheritors of the blissful Paradise. [26:86] "And forgive my father, for he has gone astray. [26:87] "And do not forsake me on the Day of Resurrection." [26:88] That is the day when neither money, nor children, can help. [26:89] Only those who come to GOD with their whole heart (will be saved). [26:90] Paradise will be presented to the righteous. [26:91] Hell will be set up for the strayers. They Will Disown Their Idols [26:92] They will be asked, "Where are the idols you had worshipped [26:93] "beside GOD? Can they help you now? Can they help themselves?" [26:94] They will be thrown therein, together with the strayers. [26:95] And all of Satan's soldiers. [26:96] They will say as they feud therein, [26:97] "By GOD, we were far astray. [26:98] "How could we set you up to rank with the Lord of the universe? [26:99] "Those who misled us were wicked. [26:100] "Now we have no intercessors. Noah [26:101] "Nor a single close friend. [26:102] "If only we could get another chance, we would then believe." [26:103] This should be a good lesson.

[26:9] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Moses [26:10] Recall that your Lord called Moses: "Go to the transgressing people. [26:11] "Pharaoh's people; perhaps they reform." [26:12] He said, "My Lord, I fear lest they disbelieve me. [26:13] "I may lose my temper. My tongue gets tied; send for my brother Aaron. [26:14] "Also, they consider me a fugitive; I fear lest they kill me." [26:15] He said, "No, (they will not). Go with My proofs. We will be with you, listening. [26:16] "Go to Pharaoh and say, `We are messengers from the Lord of the universe.' [26:17] " `Let the Children of Israel go.' " [26:18] He said, "Did we not raise you from infancy, and you spent many years with us? [26:19] "Then you committed the crime that you committed, and you were ungrateful." *26:1 See Appendix 1 for the significance of these previously mysterious letters. [26:20] He said, "Indeed, I did it when I was astray. [26:21] "Then I fled, when I feared you, and my Lord endowed me with wisdom and made me one of the messengers. [26:22] "You are boasting that you did me a favor, while enslaving the Children of Israel!" [26:23] Pharaoh said, "What is the Lord of the universe?" [26:24] He said, "The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them. You should be certain about this." [26:25] He said to those around him, "Did you hear this?" [26:26] He said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your ancestors." [26:27] He said, "Your messenger who is sent to you is crazy." [26:28] He said, "The Lord of the east and the west, and everything between them, if you understand." [26:29] He said, "If you accept any god, other than me, I will throw you in the prison." [26:30] He said, "What if I show you something profound?" [26:31] He said, "Then produce it, if you are truthful." [26:32] He then threw his staff, whereupon it became a profound snake. [26:33] And he took out his hand, and it was white to the beholders. [26:34] He said to the elders around him, "This is an experienced magician. [26:35] "He wants to take you out of your land, with his magic. What do you suggest?" [26:36] They said, "Respite him and his brother, and send summoners to every town. [26:37] "Let them summon every experienced magician." [26:38] The magicians were gathered at the appointed time, on the appointed day. [26:39] The people were told: "Come one and all; let us gather together here. [26:40] "Maybe we will follow the magicians, if they are the winners." [26:41] When the magicians came, they said to Pharaoh, "Do we get paid, if we are the winners?" [26:42] He said, "Yes indeed; you will even be close to me." [26:43] Moses said to them "Throw what you are going to throw." [26:44] They threw their ropes and sticks, and said, "By Pharaoh's majesty, we will be the victors." [26:45] Moses threw his staff, whereupon it swallowed what they fabricated. The Experts See the Truth [26:46] The magicians fell prostrate. [26:47] They said, "We believe in the Lord of the universe. [26:48] "The Lord of Moses and Aaron." [26:49] He said, "Did you believe with him before I give you permission? He must be your teacher, who taught you magic. You will surely find out. I will sever your hands and feet on alternate sides. I will crucify you all." [26:50] They said, "This will not change our decision; to our Lord we will return. [26:51] "We hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, especially that we are the first believers." [26:52] We inspired Moses: "Travel with My servants; you will be pursued."

[26:62] He said, "No way. My Lord is with me; He will guide me." [26:63] We then inspired Moses: "Strike the sea with your staff," whereupon it parted. Each part was like a great hill.

[26:72] He said, "Can they hear you when you implore? [26:73] "Can they benefit you, or harm you?" [26:74] They said, "No; but we found our parents doing this." [26:75] He said, "Do you see these idols that you worship. [26:76] "You and your ancestors. [26:77] "I am against them, for I am devoted only to the Lord of the universe.

[26:28] He said, "The Lord of the east and the west, and everything between them, if you understand." [26:29] He said, "If you accept any god, other than me, I will throw you in the prison." [26:30] He said, "What if I show you something profound?" [26:31] He said, "Then produce it, if you are truthful." [26:32] He then threw his staff, whereupon it became a profound snake. [26:33] And he took out his hand, and it was white to the beholders. [26:34] He said to the elders around him, "This is an experienced magician. [26:35] "He wants to take you out of your land, with his magic. What do you suggest?" [26:36] They said, "Respite him and his brother, and send summoners to every town. [26:37] "Let them summon every experienced magician." [26:38] The magicians were gathered at the appointed time, on the appointed day. [26:39] The people were told: "Come one and all; let us gather together here. [26:40] "Maybe we will follow the magicians, if they are the winners." [26:41] When the magicians came, they said to Pharaoh, "Do we get paid, if we are the winners?" [26:42] He said, "Yes indeed; you will even be close to me." [26:43] Moses said to them "Throw what you are going to throw." [26:44] They threw their ropes and sticks, and said, "By Pharaoh's majesty, we will be the victors." [26:45] Moses threw his staff, whereupon it swallowed what they fabricated. The Experts See the Truth [26:46] The magicians fell prostrate. [26:47] They said, "We believe in the Lord of the universe. [26:48] "The Lord of Moses and Aaron." [26:49] He said, "Did you believe with him before I give you permission? He must be your teacher, who taught you magic. You will surely find out. I will sever your hands and feet on alternate sides. I will crucify you all." [26:50] They said, "This will not change our decision; to our Lord we will return. [26:51] "We hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, especially that we are the first believers." [26:52] We inspired Moses: "Travel with My servants; you will be pursued." [26:53] Pharaoh sent to the cities callers. [26:54] (Proclaiming,) "This is a small gang. [26:55] "They are now opposing us. [26:56] "Let us all beware of them." The Inevitable Retribution [26:57] Consequently, we deprived them of gardens and springs. [26:58] And treasures and an honorable position. [26:59] Then we made it an inheritance for the Children of Israel. [26:60] They pursued them towards the east. [26:61] When both parties saw each other, Moses' people said, "We will be caught." [26:62] He said, "No way. My Lord is with me; He will guide me." [26:63] We then inspired Moses: "Strike the sea with your staff," whereupon it parted. Each part was like a great hill. [26:64] We then delivered them all. [26:65] We thus saved Moses and all those who were with him. [26:66] And we drowned the others. [26:67] This should be a sufficient proof, but most people are not believers. [26:68] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Abraham [26:69] Narrate to them Abraham's history. [26:70] He said to his father and his people, "What is this you are worshipping?" [26:71] They said, "We worship statues; we are totally devoted to them." [26:72] He said, "Can they hear you when you implore? [26:73] "Can they benefit you, or harm you?" [26:74] They said, "No; but we found our parents doing this." [26:75] He said, "Do you see these idols that you worship. [26:76] "You and your ancestors. [26:77] "I am against them, for I am devoted only to the Lord of the universe. [26:78] "The One who created me, and guided me. [26:79] "The One who feeds me and waters me. [26:80] "And when I get sick, He heals me. [26:81] "The One who puts me to death, then brings me back to life. [26:82] "The One who hopefully will forgive my sins on the Day of Judgment. [26:83] "My Lord, grant me wisdom, and include me with the righteous. [26:84] "Let the example I set for the future generations be a good one. [26:85] "Make me one of the inheritors of the blissful Paradise. [26:86] "And forgive my father, for he has gone astray. [26:87] "And do not forsake me on the Day of Resurrection." [26:88] That is the day when neither money, nor children, can help. [26:89] Only those who come to GOD with their whole heart (will be saved). [26:90] Paradise will be presented to the righteous. [26:91] Hell will be set up for the strayers. They Will Disown Their Idols [26:92] They will be asked, "Where are the idols you had worshipped [26:93] "beside GOD? Can they help you now? Can they help themselves?" [26:94] They will be thrown therein, together with the strayers. [26:95] And all of Satan's soldiers. [26:96] They will say as they feud therein, [26:97] "By GOD, we were far astray. [26:98] "How could we set you up to rank with the Lord of the universe? [26:99] "Those who misled us were wicked. [26:100] "Now we have no intercessors. Noah [26:101] "Nor a single close friend. [26:102] "If only we could get another chance, we would then believe." [26:103] This should be a good lesson. But most people are not believers. [26:104] Your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. [26:105] The people of Noah disbelieved the messengers. [26:106] Their brother Noah said to them, "Would you not be righteous? [26:107] "I am an honest messenger to you. [26:108] "You shall reverence GOD and obey me. [26:109] "I do not ask you for any wage. My wage comes from the Lord of the universe. [26:110] "You shall reverence GOD and obey me." [26:111] They said, "How can we believe with you, when the worst among us have followed you?" [26:112] He said, "How do I know what they did? [26:113] "Their judgment rests only with my Lord, if you could perceive. [26:114] "I will never dismiss the believers. [26:115] "I am no more than a clarifying warner." [26:116] They said, "Unless you refrain, O Noah, you will be stoned." [26:117] He said, "My Lord, my people have disbelieved me. [26:118] "Grant me victory against them, and deliver me and my company of believers." [26:119] We delivered him and those who accompanied him in the loaded ark. [26:120] Then we drowned the others. [26:121] This should be a lesson, but most people are not believers. [26:122] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Hud [26:123] `Aad disbelieved the messengers. [26:124] Their brother Hood said to them, "Would you not be righteous?
[26:13] "I may lose my temper. My tongue gets tied; send for my brother Aaron. [26:14] "Also, they consider me a fugitive; I fear lest they kill me." [26:15] He said, "No, (they will not).

" [26:18] He said, "Did we not raise you from infancy, and you spent many years with us? [26:19] "Then you committed the crime that you committed, and you were ungrateful." *26:1 See Appendix 1 for the significance of these previously mysterious letters. [26:20] He said, "Indeed, I did it when I was astray. [26:21] "Then I fled, when I feared you, and my Lord endowed me with wisdom and made me one of the messengers. [26:22] "You are boasting that you did me a favor, while enslaving the Children of Israel!" [26:23] Pharaoh said, "What is the Lord of the universe?"

[26:109] "I do not ask you for any wage. My wage comes from the Lord of the universe. [26:110] "You shall reverence GOD and obey me." [26:111] They said, "How can we believe with you, when the worst among us have followed you?" [26:112] He said, "How do I know what they did?

[26:116] They said, "Unless you refrain, O Noah, you will be stoned." [26:117] He said, "My Lord, my people have disbelieved me. [26:118] "Grant me victory against them, and deliver me and my company of believers." [26:119] We delivered him and those who accompanied him in the loaded ark. [26:120] Then we drowned the others.

[26:34] He said to the elders around him, "This is an experienced magician. [26:35] "He wants to take you out of your land, with his magic. What do you suggest?" [26:36] They said, "Respite him and his brother, and send summoners to every town. [26:37] "Let them summon every experienced magician."

[26:44] They threw their ropes and sticks, and said, "By Pharaoh's majesty, we will be the victors." [26:45] Moses threw his staff, whereupon it swallowed what they fabricated. The Experts See the Truth [26:46] The magicians fell prostrate. [26:47] They said, "We believe in the Lord of the universe. [26:48] "The Lord of Moses and Aaron."

[26:62] He said, "No way. My Lord is with me; He will guide me." [26:63] We then inspired Moses: "Strike the sea with your staff," whereupon it parted. Each part was like a great hill.

[26:42] He said, "Yes indeed; you will even be close to me." [26:43] Moses said to them "Throw what you are going to throw." [26:44] They threw their ropes and sticks, and said, "By Pharaoh's majesty, we will be the victors." [26:45] Moses threw his staff, whereupon it swallowed what they fabricated. The Experts See the Truth [26:46] The magicians fell prostrate. [26:47] They said, "We believe in the Lord of the universe. [26:48] "The Lord of Moses and Aaron." [26:49] He said, "Did you believe with him before I give you permission? He must be your teacher, who taught you magic. You will surely find out. I will sever your hands and feet on alternate sides. I will crucify you all." [26:50] They said, "This will not change our decision; to our Lord we will return. [26:51] "We hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, especially that we are the first believers." [26:52] We inspired Moses: "Travel with My servants; you will be pursued." [26:53] Pharaoh sent to the cities callers. [26:54] (Proclaiming,) "This is a small gang. [26:55] "They are now opposing us. [26:56] "Let us all beware of them." The Inevitable Retribution [26:57] Consequently, we deprived them of gardens and springs. [26:58] And treasures and an honorable position. [26:59] Then we made it an inheritance for the Children of Israel. [26:60] They pursued them towards the east. [26:61] When both parties saw each other, Moses' people said, "We will be caught." [26:62] He said, "No way. My Lord is with me; He will guide me." [26:63] We then inspired Moses: "Strike the sea with your staff," whereupon it parted. Each part was like a great hill. [26:64] We then delivered them all. [26:65] We thus saved Moses and all those who were with him. [26:66] And we drowned the others. [26:67] This should be a sufficient proof, but most people are not believers. [26:68] Most assuredly, your Lord is the Almighty, Most Merciful. Abraham [26:69] Narrate to them Abraham's history. [26:70] He said to his father and his people, "What is this you are worshipping?" [26:71] They said, "We worship statues; we are totally devoted to them." [26:72] He said, "Can they hear you when you implore? [26:73] "Can they benefit you, or harm you?" [26:74] They said, "No; but we found our parents doing this." [26:75] He said, "Do you see these idols that you worship. [26:76] "You and your ancestors. [26:77] "I am against them, for I am devoted only to the Lord of the universe. [26:78] "The One who created me, and guided me. [26:79] "The One who feeds me and waters me. [26:80] "And when I get sick, He heals me.

[26:83] "My Lord, grant me wisdom, and include me with the righteous. [26:84] "Let the example I set for the future generations be a good one. [26:85] "Make me one of the inheritors of the blissful Paradise. [26:86] "And forgive my father, for he has gone astray. [26:87] "And do not forsake me on the Day of Resurrection." [26:88] That is the day when neither money, nor children, can help. [26:89] Only those who come to GOD with their whole heart (will be saved). [26:90] Paradise will be presented to the righteous. [26:91] Hell will be set up for the strayers. They Will Disown Their Idols [26:92] They will be asked, "Where are the idols you had worshipped [26:93] "beside GOD? Can they help you now? Can they help themselves?" [26:94] They will be thrown therein, together with the strayers. [26:95] And all of Satan's soldiers. [26:96] They will say as they feud therein, [26:97] "By GOD, we were far astray. [26:98] "How could we set you up to rank with the Lord of the universe? [26:99] "Those who misled us were wicked.

[26:109] "I do not ask you for any wage. My wage comes from the Lord of the universe. [26:110] "You shall reverence GOD and obey me." [26:111] They said, "How can we believe with you, when the worst among us have followed you?" [26:112] He said, "How do I know what they did? [26:113] "Their judgment rests only with my Lord, if you could perceive. [26:114] "I will never dismiss the believers. [26:115] "I am no more than a clarifying warner." [26:116] They said, "Unless you refrain, O Noah, you will be stoned." [26:117] He said, "My Lord, my people have disbelieved me. [26:118] "Grant me victory against them, and deliver me and my company of believers." [26:119] We delivered him and those who accompanied him in the loaded ark. [26:120] Then we drowned the others.
