Yusuf Ali
By the Book that makes things clear;-
Yusuf Ali
We sent it down during a Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).
Yusuf Ali
In the (Night) is made distinct every affair of wisdom,
Yusuf Ali
By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations),
Yusuf Ali
As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (all things);
Yusuf Ali
The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all between them, if ye (but) have an assured faith.
Yusuf Ali
There is no god but He: It is He Who gives life and gives death,- The Lord and Cherisher to you and your earliest ancestors.
Yusuf Ali
Yet they play about in doubt.
Yusuf Ali
Then watch thou for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke (or mist) plainly visible,
Yusuf Ali
Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.
Yusuf Ali
(They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"
Yusuf Ali
How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them,-
Yusuf Ali
Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"
Yusuf Ali
We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).
Yusuf Ali
One day We shall seize you with a mighty onslaught: We will indeed (then) exact Retribution!
Yusuf Ali
We did, before them, try the people of Pharaoh: there came to them a messenger most honourable,
Yusuf Ali
Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;
Yusuf Ali
"And be not arrogant as against Allah: for I come to you with authority manifest.
Yusuf Ali
"For me, I have sought safety with my Lord and your Lord, against your injuring me.
