72. Al-Jinn - Jinn
1 | Proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I have received the divine revelation that some jinns attentively listened to my recitation, so they said, ‘We have heard a unique Qur’an.’ |
2 | ‘That guides to the path of goodness, we have therefore accepted faith in it; and we shall never ascribe anyone as a partner to our Lord.’ |
3 | ‘And that our Lord’s Majesty is Supreme – He has neither chosen a wife nor a child.’ |
4 | ‘And that the fool among us used to utter false exaggerations against Allah.’ |
5 | ‘Whereas we thought that men and jinns would never fabricate a lie against Allah!’ |
6 | ‘And indeed some men among humans used to take the protection of some men among jinns, so it further increased their haughtiness.’ |
7 | ‘And that they assumed, like you humans assume, that Allah would not send any Noble Messenger.’ |
8 | ‘And we reached the sky, so we found it strongly guarded and filled with comets.’ |
9 | ‘And that we sometimes used to sit in some places in the sky, to listen; so whoever now listens finds a fiery comet waiting for him.’ |
10 | ‘And we do not know whether harm is intended for those on the earth, or whether their Lord intends goodness for them.’ |
11 | ‘And among us some are virtuous and some are the other type; we are split into several branches.’ |
12 | ‘And we are certain that we cannot defeat Allah in the earth, nor can we run out of His grasp.’ |
13 | ‘And that when we heard the guidance, we accepted faith in it; so whoever accepts faith in his Lord, has no fear – neither of any loss nor of any injustice.’ |
14 | ‘And that some among us are Muslims and some are the unjust; and whoever has accepted Islam – it is they who have thought rightly.’ |
15 | ‘And as for the unjust – they are the fuel of hell.’” |
16 | And proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I have received the divine revelation that ‘Had they remained upright on the straight path, We would have given them abundant water.’ |
17 | ‘In order to test them with it; and whoever turns away from the remembrance of his Lord – He will put him in a punishment that keeps on increasing.’ |
18 | ‘And that the mosques are for Allah only – therefore do not worship anyone along with Allah.’ |
19 | ‘And that when Allah’s bondman stood up to worship Him, the jinns had almost crowded upon him.’” |
20 | Say (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I worship only Allah, and I do not ascribe any partner to Him.” |
21 | Proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I am not the master of any harm or benefit for you.” |
22 | Say, “No one will ever save me from Allah, and other than Him, I will not find any refuge.” |
23 | “I only convey the commands from Allah, and His messages; and whoever disobeys the commands of Allah and His Noble Messenger – then indeed for him is the fire of hell, in which they will remain for ever and ever.” |
24 | Till the time when they will see what they are promised – so they will now come to know whose aide is weak, and who is lesser in number. |
25 | Say (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I do not know whether what you are promised is close or if my Lord will postpone it for a while.” |
26 | The All Knowing of all the hidden does not give anyone the control over His secrets. |
27 | Except to His chosen Noble Messengers – so He appoints guards in front and behind him. (Allah gave the knowledge of the hidden to the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him.) |
28 | In order to see that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord – and His knowledge encompasses all whatever they have, and He has kept all things accounted for. |
