In The Name Of Allah The Entirely Merciful The Especially Merciful
72:1 Say, [O Muhammad], "It has been revealed to me that a group of the jinn listened and said, 'Indeed, we have heard an amazing Qur'an.
72:2 It guides to the right course, and we have believed in it. And we will never associate with our Lord anyone.
72:3 And [it teaches] that exalted is the nobleness of our Lord; He has not taken a wife or a son
72:4 And that our foolish one has been saying about Allah an excessive transgression.
72:5 And we had thought that mankind and the jinn would never speak about Allah a lie.
72:6 And there were men from mankind who sought refuge in men from the jinn, so they [only] increased them in burden.
72:7 And they had thought, as you thought, that Allah would never send anyone [as a messenger].
72:8 And we have sought [to reach] the heaven but found it filled with powerful guards and burning flames.
72:9 And we used to sit therein in positions for hearing, but whoever listens now will find a burning flame lying in wait for him.
72:10 And we do not know [therefore] whether evil is intended for those on earth or whether their Lord intends for them a right course.
72:11 And among us are the righteous, and among us are [others] not so; we were [of] divided ways.
72:12 And we have become certain that we will never cause failure to Allah upon earth, nor can we escape Him by flight.
72:13 And when we heard the guidance, we believed in it. And whoever believes in his Lord will not fear deprivation or burden.
72:14 And among us are Muslims [in submission to Allah ], and among us are the unjust. And whoever has become Muslim - those have sought out the right course.
72:15 But as for the unjust, they will be, for Hell, firewood.'
72:16 And [ Allah revealed] that if they had remained straight on the way, We would have given them abundant provision
72:17 So We might test them therein. And whoever turns away from the remembrance of his Lord He will put into arduous punishment.
72:18 And [He revealed] that the masjids are for Allah , so do not invoke with Allah anyone.
72:19 And that when the Servant of Allah stood up supplicating Him, they almost became about him a compacted mass."
72:20 Say, [O Muhammad], "I only invoke my Lord and do not associate with Him anyone."
72:21 Say, "Indeed, I do not possess for you [the power of] harm or right direction."
72:22 Say, "Indeed, there will never protect me from Allah anyone [if I should disobey], nor will I find in other than Him a refuge.
72:23 But [I have for you] only notification from Allah , and His messages." And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger - then indeed, for him is the fire of Hell; they will abide therein forever.
72:24 [The disbelievers continue] until, when they see that which they are promised, then they will know who is weaker in helpers and less in number.
72:25 Say, "I do not know if what you are promised is near or if my Lord will grant for it a [long] period."
72:26 [He is] Knower of the unseen, and He does not disclose His [knowledge of the] unseen to anyone
72:27 Except whom He has approved of messengers, and indeed, He sends before each messenger and behind him observers
72:28 That he may know that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord; and He has encompassed whatever is with them and has enumerated all things in number.
