51. THE SPREADERS
1. By the
spreaders spreading.
2. And those
carrying loads.
3. And those
moving gently.
4. And those
distributing as commanded.
5. What you are
promised is true.
6. Judgment will
take place.
7. By the sky that
is woven.
8. You differ in
what you say.
9. Averted from it
is he who is averted.
10. Perish the
imposters.
11. Those who are
dazed in ignorance.
12. They ask,
“When is the Day of Judgment?”
13. The Day they
are presented to the Fire.
14. “Taste your
ordeal. This is what you used to challenge.”
15. But the pious
are amidst gardens and springs.
16. Receiving what
their Lord has given them. They were virtuous before that.
17. They used to
sleep a little at night.
18. And at dawn,
they would pray for pardon.
19. And in their
wealth, there was a share for the beggar and the deprived.
20. And on earth
are signs for the convinced.
21. And within
yourselves. Do you not see?
22. And in the
heaven is your livelihood, and what you are promised.
23. By the Lord of
the heaven and the earth, it is as true as the fact that you speak.
24. Has the story
of Abraham’s honorable guests reached you?
25. When they entered upon him, they said, “Peace.” He said, “Peace, strangers.”
26. Then he
slipped away to his family, and brought a fatted calf.
27. He set it
before them. He said, “Will you not eat?”
28. And he
harbored fear of them. They said, “Do not fear,” and they announced to him the
good news of a knowledgeable boy.
29. His wife came
forward crying. She clasped her face, and said, “A barren old woman?”
30. They said,
“Thus spoke your Lord. He is the Wise, the Knowing.”
31. He said, “What
is your business, O envoys?”
32. They said, “We
are sent to a people guilty of sin.”
33. “To unleash
upon them rocks of clay.”
34. “Marked by
your Lord for the excessive.”
35. We evacuated
all the believers who were in it.
36. But found in
it only one household of Muslims.
37. And We left a
sign therein for those who fear the painful punishment.
38. And in Moses.
We sent him to Pharaoh with a clear authority.
39. But he turned
away with his warlords, and said, “A sorcerer or a madman.”
40. So We seized
him and his troops, and threw them into the sea, and He was to blame.
41. And in Aad. We
unleashed against them the devastating wind.
42. It spared
nothing it came upon, but rendered it like decayed ruins.
43. And in
Thamood. They were told, “Enjoy yourselves for a while.”
44. But they
defied the command of their Lord, so the lightning struck them as they looked
on.
45. They could not
rise up, nor could they find help.
46. And before
that, the people of Noah. They were immoral people.
47. We constructed
the universe with power, and We are expanding it.
48. And the earth—We
spread it out— How well We prepared it!
49. We created all things in pairs, so that you may reflect and ponder.
50. “So flee
towards God. I am to you from Him a clear warner.”
51. “And do not
set up any other god with God. I am to you from Him a clear warner.”
52. Likewise, no
messenger came to those before them, but they said, “A sorcerer or a madman.”
53. Did they
recommend it to one another? In fact, they are rebellious people.
54. So turn away
from them; you are not to blame.
55. And remind,
for the reminder benefits the believers.
56. I did not
create the jinn and the humans except to worship Me.
57. I need no
livelihood from them, nor do I need them to feed Me.
58. God is the
Provider, the One with Power, the Strong.
59. Those who do
wrong will have their turn, like the turn of their counterparts, so let them
not rush Me.
60. So woe to those who disbelieve because of that Day of theirs which they are promised.
