English Translation

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE COMPASSIONATE, THE MERCIFUL.

 It is the Merciful who has taught the Quran. He created man and taught him articulate speech. The sun and the moon pursue their ordered course. The plants and the trees bow down in adoration. He raised the heaven on high and set the balance of all things, that you might not transgress that balance. Give just weight and full measure. He laid the earth for His creatures, with all its fruits and blossom-bearing palm, chaff-covered grain and scented herbs. Which of your Lord’s blessing would you deny? He created man from potter’s clay, and jinn from smokeless fire. Which of your Lord’s blessings would you deny? The Lord of the two easts is He, and the Lord of the two wests.

But this you shall not do except with our own authority. Which of your Lord’s blessing would you deny? Flames of fire shall be lashed at you, and molten brass. There shall be none to help you. Which of your Lord’s blessing would you deny? When the sky splits asunder, and reddens like a rose or stained leather, on that day neither man nor jinnee will be asked about his sins.
