YUSUFALI:
Man says: "What! When I am dead, shall I then be raised up
alive?"
PICKTHAL:
And man saith: When I am dead, shall I forsooth be brought
forth alive?
SHAKIR:
And says man: What! when I am dead shall I truly be brought
forth alive?
019.067
YUSUFALI:
But does not man call to mind that We created him before out
of nothing?
PICKTHAL:
Doth not man remember that We created him before, when he was
naught?
SHAKIR:
Does not man remember that We created him before, when he was
nothing?
019.068
YUSUFALI:
So, by thy Lord, without doubt, We shall gather them together,
and (also) the Evil Ones (with them); then shall We bring them forth on
their knees round about Hell;
PICKTHAL:
And, by thy Lord, verily We shall assemble them and the
devils, then We shall bring them, crouching, around hell.
SHAKIR:
So by your Lord! We will most certainly gather them together
and the Shaitans, then shall We certainly cause them to be
present round hell on their knees.
019.069
YUSUFALI:
Then shall We certainly drag out from every sect all those who
were worst in obstinate rebellion against (Allah) Most Gracious.
PICKTHAL:
Then We shall pluck out from every sect whichever of them was
most stubborn in rebellion to the Beneficent.
SHAKIR:
Then We will most certainly draw forth from every sect of
them him who is most exorbitantly rebellious against the
Beneficent Allah.
019.070
YUSUFALI:
And certainly We know best those who are most worthy of being
burned therein.
PICKTHAL:
And surely We are Best Aware of those most worthy to be burned
therein.
SHAKIR:
Again We do certainly know best those who deserve most to be
burned therein.
019.071
YUSUFALI:
Not one of you but will pass over it: this is, with thy Lord,
a Decree which must be accomplished.
PICKTHAL:
There is not one of you but shall approach it. That is a fixed
ordinance of thy Lord.
SHAKIR:
And there is not one of you but shall come to it; this is an
unavoidable decree of your Lord.
019.072
YUSUFALI:
But We shall save those who guarded against evil, and We shall
leave the wrong-doers therein, (humbled) to their knees.
PICKTHAL:
Then We shall rescue those who kept from evil, and leave the
evil-doers crouching there.
SHAKIR:
And We will deliver those who guarded (against evil), and We
will leave the unjust therein on their knees.
019.073
YUSUFALI:
When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, the Unbelievers
say to those who believe, "Which of the two sides is best in point of
position? Which makes the best show in council?"
PICKTHAL:
And when Our clear revelations are recited unto them, those
who disbelieve say unto those who believe: Which of the two parties (yours
or ours) is better in position, and more imposing as an army?
SHAKIR:
And when Our clear communications are recited to them, those
who disbelieve say to those who believe: Which of the two parties
is best in abiding and best in assembly?
019.074
YUSUFALI:
But how many (countless) generations before them have we
destroyed, who were even better in equipment and in glitter to the eye?
PICKTHAL:
How many a generation have We destroyed before them, who were
more imposing in respect of gear and outward seeming!
SHAKIR:
And how many of the generations have We destroyed before them
who were better in respect of goods and outward appearance!
019.075
YUSUFALI:
Say: "If any men go astray, (Allah) Most Gracious extends (the
rope) to them, until, when they see the warning of Allah (being fulfilled) -
either in punishment or in (the approach of) the Hour,- they will at length
realise who is worst in position, and (who) weakest in forces!
PICKTHAL:
Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will verily
prolong his span of life until, when they behold that which they were
promised, whether it be punishment (in the world), or the Hour (of doom),
they will know who is worse in position and who is weaker as an army.
SHAKIR:
Say: As for him who remains in error, the Beneficent Allah will
surely prolong his length of days, until they see what they were
threatened with, either the punishment or the hour; then they
shall know who is in more evil plight and weaker in forces
019.076
YUSUFALI:
"And Allah doth advance in guidance those who seek guidance: and
the things that endure, Good Deeds, are best in the sight of thy Lord, as
rewards, and best in respect of (their) eventual return."
PICKTHAL:
Allah increaseth in right guidance those who walk aright, and
the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and
better for resort.
SHAKIR:
And Allah increases in guidance those who go aright; and
ever-abiding good works are with your Lord best in recompense and
best in yielding fruit.
019.077
YUSUFALI:
Hast thou then seen the (sort of) man who rejects Our Signs,
yet says: "I shall certainly be given wealth and children?"
PICKTHAL:
Hast thou seen him who disbelieveth in Our revelations and
saith: Assuredly I shall be given wealth and children?
SHAKIR:
Have you, then, seen him who disbelieves in Our
communications and says: I shall certainly be given wealth and
children?
019.078
YUSUFALI:
Has he penetrated to the Unseen, or has he taken a contract
with (Allah) Most Gracious?
PICKTHAL:
Hath he perused the Unseen, or hath he made a pact with the
Beneficent?
SHAKIR:
Has he gained knowledge of the unseen, or made a covenant
with the Beneficent Allah?
019.079
YUSUFALI:
Nay! We shall record what he says, and We shall add and add to
his punishment.
PICKTHAL:
Nay, but We shall record that which he saith and prolong for
him a span of torment.
SHAKIR:
By no means! We write down what he says, and We will lengthen
to him the length of the chastisement
019.080
YUSUFALI:
To Us shall return all that he talks of and he shall appear
before Us bare and alone.
PICKTHAL:
And We shall inherit from him that whereof he spake, and he
will come unto Us, alone (without his wealth and children).
SHAKIR:
And We will inherit of him what he says, and he shall come to
Us alone.
019.081
YUSUFALI:
And they have taken (for worship) gods other than Allah, to give
them power and glory!
PICKTHAL:
And they have chosen (other) gods beside Allah that they may
be a power for them.
SHAKIR:
And they have taken gods besides Allah, that they should be
to them a source of strength;
019.082
YUSUFALI:
Instead, they shall reject their worship, and become
adversaries against them.
PICKTHAL:
Nay, but they will deny their worship of them, and become
opponents unto them.
SHAKIR:
By no means! They shall soon deny their worshipping them, and
they shall be adversaries to them.
019.083
YUSUFALI:
Seest thou not that We have set the Evil Ones on against the
unbelievers, to incite them with fury?
PICKTHAL:
Seest thou not that We have set the devils on the disbelievers
to confound them with confusion?
SHAKIR:
Do you not see that We have sent the Shaitans against the
unbelievers, inciting them by incitement?
019.084
YUSUFALI:
So make no haste against them, for We but count out to them a
(limited) number (of days).
PICKTHAL:
So make no haste against them (O Muhammad). We do but number
unto them a sum (of days).
SHAKIR:
Therefore be not in haste against them, We only number out to
them a number (of days).
019.085
YUSUFALI:
The day We shall gather the righteous to (Allah) Most Gracious,
like a band presented before a king for honours,
PICKTHAL:
On the day when We shall gather the righteous unto the
Beneficent, a goodly company.
SHAKIR:
The day on which We will gather those who guard (against
evil) to the Beneficent Allah to receive honors
019.086
YUSUFALI:
And We shall drive the sinners to Hell, like thirsty cattle
driven down to water,-
PICKTHAL:
And drive the guilty unto hell, a weary herd,
SHAKIR:
And We will drive the guilty to hell thirsty
019.087
YUSUFALI:
None shall have the power of intercession, but such a one as
has received permission (or promise) from (Allah) Most Gracious.
PICKTHAL:
They will have no power of intercession, save him who hath
made a covenant with his Lord.
SHAKIR:
They shall not control intercession, save he who has made a
covenant with the Beneficent Allah.
019.088
YUSUFALI:
They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!"
PICKTHAL:
And they say: The Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a son.
SHAKIR:
And they say: The Beneficent Allah has taken (to Himself) a
son.
019.089
YUSUFALI:
Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!
PICKTHAL:
Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing
SHAKIR:
Certainly you have made an abominable assertion
019.090
YUSUFALI:
At it the skies are ready to burst, the earth to split
asunder, and the mountains to fall down in utter ruin,
PICKTHAL:
Whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split
asunder and the mountains fall in ruins,
SHAKIR:
The heavens may almost be rent thereat, and the earth cleave
asunder, and the mountains fall down in pieces,
019.091
YUSUFALI:
That they should invoke a son for (Allah) Most Gracious.
PICKTHAL:
That ye ascribe unto the Beneficent a son,
SHAKIR:
That they ascribe a son to the Beneficent Allah.
019.092
YUSUFALI:
For it is not consonant with the majesty of (Allah) Most
Gracious that He should beget a son.
PICKTHAL:
When it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that
He should choose a son.
SHAKIR:
And it is not worthy of the Beneficent Allah that He should
take (to Himself) a son.
019.093
YUSUFALI:
Not one of the beings in the heavens and the earth but must
come to (Allah) Most Gracious as a servant.
PICKTHAL:
There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the
Beneficent as a slave.
SHAKIR:
There is no one in the heavens and the earth but will come to
the Beneficent Allah as a servant.
019.094
YUSUFALI:
He does take an account of them (all), and hath numbered them
(all) exactly.
PICKTHAL:
Verily He knoweth them and numbereth them with (right)
numbering.
SHAKIR:
Certainly He has a comprehensive knowledge of them and He has
numbered them a (comprehensive) numbering.
019.095
YUSUFALI:
And everyone of them will come to Him singly on the Day of
Judgment.
PICKTHAL:
And each one of them will come unto Him on the Day of
Resurrection, alone.
SHAKIR:
And every one of them will come to Him on the day of
resurrection alone.
019.096
YUSUFALI:
On those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, will
(Allah) Most Gracious bestow love.
PICKTHAL:
Lo! those who believe and do good works, the Beneficent will
appoint for them love.
SHAKIR:
Surely (as for) those who believe and do good deeds for t
them will Allah bring about love.
019.097
YUSUFALI:
So have We made the (Qur'an) easy in thine own tongue, that
with it thou mayest give Glad Tidings to the righteous, and warnings to
people given to contention.
PICKTHAL:
And We make (this Scripture) easy in thy tongue, (O Muhammad)
only that thou mayst bear good tidings therewith unto those who ward off
(evil), and warn therewith the froward folk.
SHAKIR:
So We have only made it easy in your tongue that you may give
good news thereby to those who guard (against evil) and warn
thereby a vehemently contentious people.
019.098
YUSUFALI:
But how many (countless) generations before them have We
destroyed? Canst thou find a single one of them (now) or hear (so much as)
a whisper of them?
PICKTHAL:
And how many a generation before them have We destroyed! Canst
thou (Muhammad) see a single man of them, or hear from them the slightest
sound?
SHAKIR:
And how many a generation have We destroyed before them! Do
you see any one of them or hear a sound of them?
