53 And whatever good you have, it is from Allāh; then, when evil afflicts you, to Him do you cry for aid. |
54 Then when He removes the evil from you, lo! some of you associate others with their Lord, |
55 So as to deny what We have given them. Then enjoy yourselves, for soon will you know. |
56 And they set apart for what they know not, a portion of what We have given them. By Allāh! you shall certainly be questioned about that which you forged. |
57 And they ascribe daughters to Allāh. Glory be to Him! And for themselves is what they desire! |
58 And when the birth of a daughter is announced to one of them, his face becomes black and he is full of wrath. |
59 He hides himself from the people because of the evil of what is announced to him. Shall he keep it with disgrace or bury it (alive) in the dust? Now surely evil is what they judge! |
60 For those who believe not in the Hereafter are evil attributes and Allāh’s are the sublime attributes. And He is the Mighty, the Wise. |
61 And if Allāh were to destroy men for their iniquity, He would not leave therein a single creature, but He respites them till an appointed time. So when their doom comes, they are not able to delay (it) an hour, nor can they advance (it). |
62 And they ascribe to Allāh what they (themselves) hate, and their tongues relate the lie that for them is good. Assuredly for them is the Fire, and they will be (therein) abandoned. |
63 By Allāh! We certainly sent (messengers) to nations before thee, but the devil made their deeds fairseeming to them. So he is their patron today, and for them is a painful chastisement. |
64 And We have not revealed to thee the Book except that thou mayest make clear to them that wherein they differ, and (as) a guidance and a mercy for a people who believe. |
65 And Allāh sends down water from above, and therewith gives life to the earth after its death. Surely there is a sign in this for a people who listen. |
