[15.1] AlifLaamRa. Those are the verses of the Book, the Clear Koran.

[15.2] It could be that those who disbelieve will wish that they were Muslims.

[15.3] Let them eat and enjoy; and let their hopes deceive them, soon they shall know.

[15.4] We never destroyed a village whose term had not already been decreed.

[15.5] No nation can outstrip its term, nor do they put it back.

[15.6] They say: 'You to whom the Remembrance is sent down, you are indeed mad.

[15.7] Why do you not bring down the angels, if what you say is true.'

[15.8] We do not send angels except with the truth. Then they shall have no respite.

[15.9] It is We who sent down the Koran, and We watch over it.

[15.10] We have sent forth before you Messengers among the factions of the ancients.

[15.11] But no Messenger came to them except he was mocked.

[15.12] So We make it enter the hearts of the sinners.

[15.13] They do not believe in it even though the practice of the ancients has already gone.

[15.14] If We opened a gate in the heaven and they kept ascending through it,

[15.15] still they would say: 'Our eyes were dazzled; truly, we must have been a bewitched people.'

[15.16] We have set constellations in the heavens and made them pleasing to the beholders,

[15.17] and guarded them from every stoned satan.

[15.18] Except for he who steals the listening and is then pursued by a visible flame.

[15.19] We have spread out the earth and set upon it firm mountains. Everything We have caused to grow therein is justly weighed;

[15.20] and there appointed for you is a livelihood, and for those you do not provide.

[15.21] And there is not a thing but with Us are its treasuries, and We do not send it down except in a known measure.

[15.22] We send the winds fertilizing, and We send down out of heaven water, from which you drink and you are not its treasurers.

[15.23] And surely, it is We who give life and make to die. We are the Inheritor.

[15.24] We know those of you who press forward, and We know the laggards,

[15.25] and it is your Lord who will gather them. He is Wise, Knowing.

[15.26] We created mankind from clay, molded from mud,

[15.27] and before him We created the jinn from smokeless fire.

[15.28] When your Lord said to the angels: 'See, I am creating a mortal from clay of molded mud.

[15.29] When I have shaped him and ran My created soul in him fall down prostrating towards him'.

[15.30] All the angels prostrated themselves,

[15.31] except iblis (father of the jinn) who refused to be one of those who prostrated themselves.

[15.32] He said: 'iblis, what is the matter with you, that you do you not prostrate yourself?'

[15.33] He replied: 'I will not prostrate to a mortal You have created of clay, from molded mud.'

[15.34] (Allah) said: 'Begone, you are accursed!

[15.35] A curse shall be on you till the Day of Recompense.'

[15.36] He said: 'My Lord, reprieve me till the Day they are raised.'

[15.37] He answered: 'You are among those reprieved

[15.38] till the appointed time.

[15.39] (satan) said: 'My Lord, for Your perverting me, I shall make (matters) in the earth seem most fair to them and I shall pervert all,

[15.40] except the devoted amongst Your worshippers.

[15.41] He (Allah) said: 'This is for Me the Right Path

[15.42] over My worshipers you have no authority, except the perverse that follow you.

[15.43] Gehenna (Hell) will be the promise for all of them.

[15.44] It has seven gates, and through each gate a portion of them belong.

[15.45] But the cautious shall live amongst gardens and fountains:

[15.46] 'In peace and security, enter them!'

[15.47] We shall remove all rancor from their hearts, and as brethren they shall recline on couches face to face.

[15.48] There, no fatigue shall smite them, nor shall they ever be driven from it.'

[15.49] Tell My worshipers that I am the Forgiving, the Most Merciful,

[15.50] and that My punishment is the painful chastisement.

[15.51] Tell them of Abraham's guests.

[15.52] They entered to him and said: 'Peace,' but he replied: 'We are afraid of you.'

[15.53] 'Do not be afraid,' they answered. 'We come to give you glad tidings of a knowledgeable child.’

[15.54] He said: 'What is this, do you bring me glad tidings even though I am old?' Of what do you give me glad tidings?'

[15.55] They replied: 'In truth we have given you glad tidings, do not be one of those who despair.'

[15.56] He replied: 'And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord, except those that are astray?

[15.57] He asked: 'Messengers, what is your errand?'

[15.58] They replied: 'We are sent to sinful nation.

[15.59] Except Lot's family, of whom we shall save all,

[15.60] but his wife. We decreed that she should be amongst those who remain behind.

[15.61] And when the envoys came to the family of Lot,

[15.62] he said to them: 'I do not know you.'

[15.63] 'No,' they replied: 'We bring you (news) of that concerning which they were doubting.

[15.64] We bring you the truth, and indeed we are truthful.

[15.65] Depart with your family in a part of the night and walk behind them and let none of you turn round. Go to a place where you are commanded.'

[15.66] And We made known to him this decree that the wrongdoers were to be utterly cut off in the morning.

[15.67] The people of the city came to him rejoicing.

[15.68] He said: 'These are my guests; do not shame me.

[15.69] Fear Allah and do not disgrace me.'

[15.70] They replied: 'Have we not forbidden you (the people of) the worlds?'

[15.71] He said: 'Here are my daughters; take them (in marriage), if you would be doing.'

[15.72] By your life, they wandered blindly in their dazzlement.

[15.73] At sunrise a dreadful Shout seized them.

[15.74] We laid it (the city) up-side down and rained stones of baked clay upon them.

[15.75] Surely, in that there are signs for those who contemplate.

[15.76] Indeed, it is on a way which still exists.

[15.77] Surely, in that there is a sign for those who believe.

[15.78] The dwellers of the Thicket were harmdoers.

[15.79] On them, too, We took vengeance, and they are both on a clear roadway.

[15.80] And the dwellers of Al Hijr also belied the Messengers.

[15.81] We brought them signs, but they turned away.

[15.82] They hewed their dwellings out of the mountains in safety.

[15.83] But the Shout seized them in the morning,

[15.84] and that which they had earned did not help them.

[15.85] We did not create the heavens and the earth, and what is between them except in truth. The Hour is sure to come, therefore, forgive them with a gracious pardon.

[15.86] Your Lord is the Creator, the Knower.

[15.87] We have given you the seven dual (verses, Al Fatihah) and the Mighty Holy Reading (Koran).

[15.88] Do not stretch your eyes to that We have given pairs of them to enjoy, nor sorrow for them, and lower your wing to the believers.

[15.89] And say: 'I am the plain warner.'

[15.90] So We sent it down to the partitioners,

[15.91] who have broken the Koran into parts,

[15.92] so by your Lord, We will question them all

[15.93] about what they did.

[15.94] Proclaim then, what you are commanded and turn away from the unbelievers.

[15.95] We suffice you against those who mock,

[15.96] and those who set up other gods with Allah, indeed, they will soon know.

[15.97] Indeed, We know your chest is straitened by that they say.

[15.98] Exalt with the praise of your Lord and be one of those who prostrate.

[15.99] Worship your Lord till the certainty (death) comes to you.
