3 How many a generation have We destroyed before them! And they cried out when there was no longer time for escape.

3 How many a generation We destroyed before them, and they cried out when it was no longer the time for escape!

3 How many a generation have We destroyed before them, and they [then] called out; but it was not a time for escape.

4 And they (Arab pagans) wonder that a warner (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) has come to them from among themselves. And the disbelievers say: "This (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) is a sorcerer, a liar.

4 And they marvel that a warner from among themselves hath come unto them, and the disbelievers say: This is a wizard, a charlatan.

4 And they wonder that there has come to them a warner from among themselves. And the disbelievers say, "This is a magician and a liar.

5 "Has he made the alihah (gods) (all) into One Ilah (God - Allah). Verily, this is a curious thing!"

5 Maketh he the gods One God ? Lo! that is an astounding thing.

5 Has he made the gods [only] one God? Indeed, this is a curious thing."

6 And the leaders among them went about (saying): "Go on, and remain constant to your alihah (gods)! Verily, this is a thing designed (against you)!

6 The chiefs among them go about, exhorting: Go and be staunch to your gods! Lo! this is a thing designed.

6 And the eminent among them went forth, [saying], "Continue, and be patient over [the defense of] your gods. Indeed, this is a thing intended.

7 "We have not heard (the like) of this in the religion of these later days (i.e. Christianity). This is nothing but an invention! [Tafsir Al-Qurtubi]

7 We have not heard of this in later religion. This is naught but an invention.

7 We have not heard of this in the latest religion. This is not but a fabrication.

8 "Has the Reminder been sent down to him (alone) from among us?" Nay, but they are in doubt about My Reminder (this Qur'an)! Nay, but they have not tasted (My) Torment!

8 Hath the reminder been unto him (alone) among us ? Nay, but they are in doubt concerning My reminder; nay but they have not yet tasted My doom.

8 Has the message been revealed to him out of [all of] us?" Rather, they are in doubt about My message. Rather, they have not yet tasted My punishment.

9 Or have they the treasures of the Mercy of your Lord, the All-Mighty, the Real Bestower?

9 Or are theirs the treasures of the mercy of thy Lord, the Mighty, the Bestower ?

9 Or do they have the depositories of the mercy of your Lord, the Exalted in Might, the Bestower?

10 Or is it that the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them is theirs? If so, let them ascend up with means (to the heavens)!

10 Or is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them theirs ? Then let them ascend by ropes!

10 Or is theirs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and what is between them? Then let them ascend through [any] ways of access.

11 (As they denied Allah's Message) they will be a defeated host like the Confederates of the old times (who were defeated).

11 A defeated host are (all) the factions that are there.

11 [They are but] soldiers [who will be] defeated there among the companies [of disbelievers].

12 Before them (were many who) belied (Messengers) - the people of Nuh (Noah); and 'Ad; and Fir'aun (Pharaoh) the man of stakes (with which he used to punish the people),

12 The folk of Noah before them denied (their messenger) and (so did the tribe of) A'ad, and Pharaoh firmly planted,

12 The people of Noah denied before them, and [the tribe of] 'Aad and Pharaoh, the owner of stakes,

13 And Thamud, and the people of Lut (Lot), and the Dwellers of the Wood: such were the Confederates.

13 And (the tribe of) Thamud, and the folk of Lot, and the dwellers in the wood: these were the factions.

13 And [the tribe of] Thamud and the people of Lot and the companions of the thicket. Those are the companies.

14 Not one of them but belied the Messengers; therefore My Torment was justified,

14 Not one of them but did deny the messengers, therefor My doom was justified,

14 Each of them denied the messengers, so My penalty was justified.

15 And these only wait for a single Saihah [shout (i.e. the blowing of the Trumpet by the angel Israfil -)] there will be no pause or ending thereto [till everything will perish except Allah (the only God full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour)].

15 These wait for but one Shout, there will be no second thereto.

15 And these [disbelievers] await not but one blast [of the Horn]; for it there will be no delay.

16 They say: "Our Lord! Hasten to us Qittana (i.e. our Record of good and bad deeds so that we may see it) before the Day of Reckoning!"

16 They say: Our Lord! Hasten on for us our fate before the Day of Reckoning.

16 And they say, "Our Lord, hasten for us our share [of the punishment] before the Day of Account"

17 Be patient (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) of what they say, and remember Our slave Dawud (David), endued with power. Verily, he was ever oft-returning in all matters and in repentance (toward Allah).

17 Bear with what they say, and remember Our bondman David, lord of might, Lo! he was ever turning in repentance (toward Allah).

17 Be patient over what they say and remember Our servant, David, the possessor of strength; indeed, he was one who repeatedly turned back [to Allah].

18 Verily, We made the mountains to glorify Our Praises with him [Dawud (David)] in the 'Ashi (i.e. after the mid-day till sunset) and Ishraq (i.e. after the sunrise till mid-day).

18 Lo! We subdued the hills to hymn the praises (of their Lord) with him at nightfall and sunrise,

18 Indeed, We subjected the mountains [to praise] with him, exalting [Allah] in the [late] afternoon and [after] sunrise.

19 And (so did) the birds assembled: all obedient to him [Dawud (David)] [i.e. they came and glorified Allah's Praises along with him]. (Tafsir Al-Qurtubi ).

19 And the birds assembled; all were turning unto Him.

19 And the birds were assembled, all with him repeating [praises].

20 We made his kingdom strong and gave him Al-Hikmah (Prophethood) and sound judgement in speech and decision.

20 We made his kingdom strong and gave him wisdom and decisive speech.

20 And We strengthened his kingdom and gave him wisdom and discernment in speech.

21 And has the news of the litigants reached you? When they climbed over the wall into (his) Mihrab (a praying place or a private room);

21 And hath the story of the litigants come unto thee ? How they climbed the wall into the royal chamber;

21 And has there come to you the news of the adversaries, when they climbed over the wall of [his] prayer chamber -

22 When they entered in upon Dawud (David), he was terrified of them. They said: "Fear not! (We are) two litigants, one of whom has wronged the other, therefore judge between us with truth, and treat us not with injustice, and guide us to the Right Way.

22 How they burst in upon David, and he was afraid of them. They said: Be not afraid! (We are) two litigants, one of whom hath wronged the other, therefor judge aright between us; be not unjust; and show us the fair way.

22 When they entered upon David and he was alarmed by them? They said, "Fear not. [We are] two adversaries, one of whom has wronged the other, so judge between us with truth and do not exceed [it] and guide us to the sound path.

23 Verily, this my brother (in religion) has ninety-nine ewes, while I have (only) one ewe, and he says: "Hand it over to me, and he overpowered me in speech."

23 Lo! this my brother hath ninety and nine ewes while I had one ewe; and he said: Entrust it to me, and he conquered me in speech.

23 Indeed this, my brother, has ninety - nine ewes, and I have one ewe; so he said, 'Entrust her to me,' and he overpowered me in speech."

24 [Dawud (David)] said (immediately without listening to the opponent): "He has wronged you in demanding your ewe in addition to his ewes. And, verily, many partners oppress one another, except those who believe and do righteous good deeds, and they are few." And Dawud (David) guessed that We have tried him and he sought Forgiveness of his Lord, and he fell down prostrate and turned (to Allah) in repentance.

24 (David) said: He hath wronged thee in demanding thine ewe in addition to his ewes, and lo! many partners oppress one another, save such as believe and do good works, and they are few. And David guessed that We had tried him, and he sought forgiveness of his Lord, and he bowed himself and fell down prostrate and repented.

24 [David] said, "He has certainly wronged you in demanding your ewe [in addition] to his ewes. And indeed, many associates oppress one another, except for those who believe and do righteous deeds - and few are they." And David became certain that We had tried him, and he asked forgiveness of his Lord and fell down bowing [in prostration] and turned in repentance [to Allah].

25 So We forgave him that, and verily, for him is a near access to Us, and a good place of (final) return (Paradise).

25 So We forgave him that; and lo! he had access to Our presence and a happy journey's end.

25 So We forgave him that; and indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return.

26 O Dawud (David)! Verily! We have placed you as a successor on the earth; so judge you between men in truth (and justice) and follow not your desire - for it will mislead you from the Path of Allah. Verily, those who wander astray from the Path of Allah (shall) have a severe torment, because they forgot the Day of Reckoning.

26 (And it was said unto him): O David! Lo! We have set thee as a viceroy in the earth; therefor judge aright between mankind, and follow not desire that it beguile thee from the way of Allah. Lo! those who wander from the way of Allah have an awful doom, forasmuch as they forgot the Day of Reckoning.

26 [We said], "O David, indeed We have made you a successor upon the earth, so judge between the people in truth and do not follow [your own] desire, as it will lead you astray from the way of Allah." Indeed, those who go astray from the way of Allah will have a severe punishment for having forgotten the Day of Account.

27 And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them without purpose! That is the consideration of those who disbelieve! Then woe to those who disbelieve (in Islamic Monotheism) from the Fire!

27 And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them in vain. That is the opinion of those who disbelieve. And woe unto those who disbelieve, from the Fire!

27 And We did not create the heaven and the earth and that between them aimlessly. That is the assumption of those who disbelieve, so woe to those who disbelieve from the Fire.

28 Shall We treat those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds as Mufsidun (those who associate partners in worship with Allah and commit crimes) on earth? Or shall We treat the Muttaqun (the pious - See V.2:2) as the Fujjar (criminals, disbelievers, the wicked)?

28 Shall We treat those who believe and do good works as those who spread corruption in the earth; or shall We treat the pious as the wicked ?

28 Or should we treat those who believe and do righteous deeds like corrupters in the land? Or should We treat those who fear Allah like the wicked?

29 (This is) a Book (the Qur'an) which We have sent down to you, full of blessings, that they may ponder over its Verses, and that men of understanding may remember.

29 (This is) a Scripture that We have revealed unto thee, full of blessing, that they may ponder its revelations, and that men of understanding may reflect.

30 And to Dawud (David) We gave Sulaiman (Solomon). How excellent a slave! Verily, he was ever oft-returning in repentance (to Us)!

30 And We bestowed on David, Solomon. How excellent a slave! Lo! he was ever turning in repentance (toward Allah).

30 And to David We gave Solomon. An excellent servant, indeed he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allah].

31 When there were displayed before him, in the afternoon, well trained horses of the highest breed [for Jihad (holy fighting in Allah's Cause)].

31 When there were shown to him at eventide lightfooted coursers

31 [Mention] when there were exhibited before him in the afternoon the poised [standing] racehorses.

32 He said: "I did love the good (these horses) instead of remembering my Lord (in my 'Asr prayer)" till the time was over, and (the sun) had hidden in the veil (of night).

32 And he said: Lo! I have preferred the good things (of the world) to the remembrance of my Lord; till they were taken out of sight behind the curtain.

32 And he said, "Indeed, I gave preference to the love of good [things] over the remembrance of my Lord until the sun disappeared into the curtain [of darkness]."

33 Then he said "Bring them (horses) back to me." Then he began to pass his hand over their legs and their necks (till the end of the display).

33 (Then he said): Bring them back to me, and fell to slashing (with his sword their) legs and necks.

33 [He said], "Return them to me," and set about striking [their] legs and necks.

34 And indeed, We did try Sulaiman (Solomon) and We placed on his throne Jasad (a devil, so he lost his kingdom for a while) and he did return (to Allah with obedience and in repentance, and to his throne and kingdom by the Grace of Allah).

34 And verily We tried Solomon, and set upon his throne a (mere) body. Then did he repent.

34 And We certainly tried Solomon and placed on his throne a body; then he returned.

35 He said: "My Lord! Forgive me, and bestow upon me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me: Verily, You are the Bestower."

35 He said: My Lord! Forgive me and bestow on me sovereignty such as shall not belong to any after me. Lo! Thou art the Bestower.

35 He said, "My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as will not belong to anyone after me. Indeed, You are the Bestower."

36 So, We subjected to him the wind; it blew gently by his order whithersoever he willed,

36 So We made the wind subservient unto him, setting fair by his command whithersoever he intended.

36 So We subjected to him the wind blowing by his command, gently, wherever he directed,

37 And also the Shayatin (devils) from the jinn (including) every kind of builder and diver,

37 And the unruly, every builder and diver (made We subservient),

37 And [also] the devils [of jinn] - every builder and diver

38 And also others bound in fetters.

38 And others linked together in chains,

38 And others bound together in shackles.

39 [Allah said to Sulaiman (Solomon)]: "This is Our gift: so spend you or withhold, no account will be asked (of you)."

39 (Saying): This is Our gift, so bestow thou, or withhold, without reckoning.

39 [We said], "This is Our gift, so grant or withhold without account."

40 And verily, for him is a near access to Us, and a good (final) return (Paradise).

40 And lo! he hath favour with Us, and a happy journey's end.

40 And indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return.

41 And remember Our slave Ayyub (Job), when he invoked his Lord (saying): "Verily Shaitan (Satan) has touched me with distress (by ruining my health) and torment (by ruining my wealth)!

41 And make mention (O Muhammad) of Our bondman Job, when he cried unto his Lord (saying): Lo! the devil doth afflict me with distress and torment.

41 And remember Our servant Job, when he called to his Lord, "Indeed, Satan has touched me with hardship and torment."

42 (Allah said to him): "Strike the ground with your foot: This is (a spring of) water to wash in, cool and a (refreshing) drink."

42 (And it was said unto him): Strike the ground with thy foot. This (spring) is a cool bath and a refreshing drink.

42 [So he was told], "Strike [the ground] with your foot; this is a [spring for] a cool bath and drink."

43 And We gave him (back) his family, and along with them the like thereof, as a Mercy from Us, and a Reminder for those who understand.

43 And We bestowed on him (again) his household and therewith the like thereof, a mercy from Us, and a memorial for men of understanding.

43 And We granted him his family and a like [number] with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for those of understanding.

44 "And take in your hand a bundle of thin grass and strike therewith (your wife), and break not your oath. Truly! We found him patient. How excellent a slave! Verily he was ever oft-returning in repentance (to Us)!

44 And (it was said unto him): Take in thine hand a branch and smite therewith, and break not thine oath. Lo! We found him steadfast, how excellent a slave! Lo! he was ever turning in repentance (to his Lord).

44 [We said], "And take in your hand a bunch [of grass] and strike with it and do not break your oath." Indeed, We found him patient, an excellent servant. Indeed, he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allah].

45 And remember Our slaves, Ibrahim (Abraham), Ishaq (Isaac), and Ya'qub (Jacob), (all) owners of strength (in worshipping Us) and (also) of religious understanding.

45 And make mention of Our bondmen, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, men of parts and vision.

45 And remember Our servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - those of strength and [religious] vision.

46 Verily, We did choose them by granting them (a good thing, - i.e.) the remembrance of the Home [in the Hereafter and they used to make the people remember it, and also they used to invite the people to obey Allah and to do good deeds for the Hereafter].

46 Lo! We purified them with a pure thought, remembrance of the Home (of the Hereafter).

46 Indeed, We chose them for an exclusive quality: remembrance of the home [of the Hereafter].

47 And they are with Us, verily, of the chosen and the best!

47 Lo! in Our sight they are verily of the elect, the excellent.

47 And indeed they are, to Us, among the chosen and outstanding.

48 And remember Isma'il (Ishmael), Alyasa' (Elisha), and Dhul-Kifl (Isaiah), all are among the best.

48 And make mention of Ishmael and Elisha and Dhu'l - Kifl. All are of the chosen.

48 And remember Ishmael, Elisha and Dhul - Kifl, and all are among the outstanding.

49 This is a Reminder. And verily, for the Muttaqun (the pious - See V.2:2) is a good final return (Paradise),

49 This is a reminder. And lo! for those who ward off (evil) is a happy journey's end,

49 This is a reminder. And indeed, for the righteous is a good place of return

50 'Adn (Eden) Paradise (everlasting Gardens), whose doors will be opened for them.

50 Gardens of Eden, whereof the gates are opened for them,

50 Gardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will be opened to them.

51 Therein they will recline; therein they will call for fruits in abundance and drinks;

51 Wherein, reclining, they call for plenteous fruit and cool drink (that is) therein.

51 Reclining within them, they will call therein for abundant fruit and drink.

52 And beside them will be Qasirat-at-Tarf [chaste females (wives) restraining their glances (desiring none except their husbands)], (and) of equal ages.

52 And with them are those of modest gaze, companions.

52 And with them will be women limiting [their] glances and of equal age.

53 This it is what you (Al-Muttaqun - the pious - see V.2:2) are promised for the Day of Reckoning!

53 This it is that ye are promised for the Day of Reckoning.

53 This is what you, [the righteous], are promised for the Day of Account.

54 (It will be said to them)! Verily, this is Our Provision which will never finish.

54 Lo! this in truth is Our provision, which will never waste away.

54 Indeed, this is Our provision; for it there is no depletion.

55 This is so! And for the Taghun (transgressors, the disobedient to Allah and His Messenger - disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, criminals) will be an evil final return (Fire).

55 This (is for the righteous). And lo! for the transgressors there with be an evil journey's end,

55 This [is so]. But indeed, for the transgressors is an evil place of return -

56 Hell! Where they will burn, and worst (indeed) is that place to rest!

56 Hell, where they will burn, an evil resting - place.

56 Hell, which they will [enter to] burn, and wretched is the resting place.

57 This is so! Then let them taste it - a boiling fluid and dirty wound discharges.

57 Here is a boiling and an ice - cold draught, so let them taste it,

57 This - so let them taste it - is scalding water and [foul] purulence.

58 And other (torments) of similar kind - all together!

58 And other (torment) of the kind in pairs (the two extremes)!

58 And other [punishments] of its type [in various] kinds.

59 This is a troop entering with you (in Hell), no welcome for them! Verily, they shall burn in the Fire!

59 Here is an army rushing blindly with you. (Those who are already in the Fire say): No word of welcome for them. Lo! they will roast at the Fire.

59 [Its inhabitants will say], "This is a company bursting in with you. No welcome for them. Indeed, they will burn in the Fire."

60 (The followers of the misleaders will say): "Nay, you (too)! No welcome for you! It is you (misleaders) who brought this upon us (because you misled us in the world), so evil is this place to stay in!"

60 They say: Nay, but you (misleaders), for you there is no word of welcome. Ye prepared this for us (by your misleading). Now hapless is the plight.

60 They will say, "Nor you! No welcome for you. You, [our leaders], brought this upon us, and wretched is the settlement."

61 They will say: "Our Lord! Whoever brought this upon us, add to him a double torment in the Fire!"

61 They say: Our Lord! Whoever did prepare this for us, oh, give him double portion of the Fire!

61 They will say, "Our Lord, whoever brought this upon us - increase for him double punishment in the Fire."

62 And they will say: "What is the matter with us that we see not men whom we used to count among the bad ones?"

62 And they say: What aileth us that we behold not men whom we were wont to count among the wicked ?

62 And they will say, "Why do we not see men whom we used to count among the worst?

63 Did we take them as an object of mockery, or have (our) eyes failed to perceive them?"

63 Did we take them (wrongly) for a laughing - stock, or have our eyes missed them ?

63 Is it [because] we took them in ridicule, or has [our] vision turned away from them?"

64 Verily, that is the very truth - the mutual dispute of the people of the Fire!

64 Lo! that is very truth: the wrangling of the dwellers in the Fire.

64 Indeed, that is truth - the quarreling of the people of the Fire.

65 Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "I am only a warner and there is no Ilah (God) except Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah) the One, the Irresistible,

65 Say (unto them, O Muhammad): I am only a warner, and there is no God save Allah, the One, the Absolute,

65 Say, [O Muhammad], "I am only a warner, and there is not any deity except Allah, the One, the Prevailing.

66 "The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, the All-Mighty, the Oft-Forgiving."

66 Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, the Mighty, the Pardoning.

66 Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver."

67 Say: "That (this Qur'an) is a great news,

67 Say: It is tremendous tidings

67 Say, "It is great news

68 "From which you turn away!

68 Whence ye turn away!

68 From which you turn away.

69 "I had no knowledge of the chiefs (angels) on high when they were disputing and discussing (about the creation of Adam).

69 I had no knowledge of the Highest Chiefs when they disputed;

69 I had no knowledge of the exalted assembly [of angels] when they were disputing [the creation of Adam].

70 "Only this has been revealed to me, that I am a plain warner."

70 It is revealed unto me only that I may be a plain warner.

70 It has not been revealed to me except that I am a clear warner."

71 (Remember) when your Lord said to the angels: "Truly I am going to create man from clay".

71 When thy Lord said unto the angels: Lo! I am about to create a mortal out of mire,

71 [So mention] when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I am going to create a human being from clay.

72 So when I have fashioned him and breathed into him (his) soul created by Me, then you fall down prostrate to him."

72 And when I have fashioned him and breathed into him of My Spirit, then fall down before him prostrate,

72 So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration."

73 So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them:

73 The angels fell down prostrate, every one,

73 So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely.

74 Except Iblis (Satan): he was proud and was one of the disbelievers.

74 Saving Iblis; he was scornful and became one of the disbelievers.

74 Except Iblees; he was arrogant and became among the disbelievers.

75 (Allah) said: "O Iblis (Satan)! What prevents you from prostrating yourself to one whom I have created with Both My Hands . Are you too proud (to fall prostrate to Adam) or are you one of the high exalted?"

75 He said: O Iblis! What hindereth thee from falling prostrate before that which I have created with both My hands ? Art thou too proud or art thou of the high exalted ?

75 [Allah] said, "O Iblees, what prevented you from prostrating to that which I created with My hands? Were you arrogant [then], or were you [already] among the haughty?"

76 [Iblis (Satan)] said: "I am better than he. You created me from fire, and You created him from clay."

76 He said: I am better than him. Thou createdst me of fire, whilst him Thou didst create of clay.

76 He said, "I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay."

77 (Allah) said: "Then get out from here; for verily you are outcast.

77 He said: Go forth from hence, for lo! thou art outcast,

77 [Allah] said, "Then get out of Paradise, for indeed, you are expelled.

78 "And verily My Curse is on you till the Day of Recompense."

78 And lo! My curse is on thee till the Day of Judgment.

78 And indeed, upon you is My curse until the Day of Recompense."

79 [Iblis (Satan)] said: "My Lord! Give me then respite till the Day the (dead) are resurrected."

79 He said: My Lord! Reprieve me till the day when they are raised.

79 He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."

80 (Allah) said: "Verily! You are of those allowed respite."

80 He said: Lo! thou art of those reprieved

80 [Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved

81 "Till the Day of the time appointed."

81 Until the day of the time appointed.

81 Until the Day of the time well - known."

82 [Iblis (Satan)] said: "By Your Might, then I will surely mislead them all,

82 He said: Then, by Thy might, I surely will beguile them every one,

82 [Iblees] said, "By your might, I will surely mislead them all

83 "Except Your chosen slaves amongst them (i.e. faithful, obedient, true believers of Islamic Monotheism)."

83 Save Thy single - minded slaves among them.

83 Except, among them, Your chosen servants."

84 (Allah) said: "The Truth is - and the Truth I say -

84 He said: The Truth is, and the Truth I speak,

84 [Allah] said, "The truth [is My oath], and the truth I say -

85 That I will fill Hell with you [Iblis (Satan)] and those of them (mankind) that follow you, together."

85 That I shall fill hell with thee and with such of them as follow thee, together.

85 [That] I will surely fill Hell with you and those of them that follow you all together."

86 Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "No wage do I ask of you for this (the Qur'an), nor am I one of the Mutakallifun (those who pretend and fabricate things which do not exist).

86 Say (O Muhammad, unto mankind): I ask of you no fee for this, and I am no simulating.

86 Say, [O Muhammad], "I do not ask you for the Qur'an any payment, and I am not of the pretentious

87 "It (this Qur'an) is only a Reminder for all the 'Alamin (mankind and jinn).

87 Lo! it is naught else than a reminder for all peoples

87 It is but a reminder to the worlds.
