Read: In the name of thy Lord Who createth, |
| 096.002 |
Createth man from a clot. |
| 096.003 |
Read: And thy Lord is the Most Bounteous, |
| 096.004 |
Who teacheth by the pen, |
| 096.005 |
Teacheth man that which he knew not. |
| 096.006 |
Nay, but verily man is rebellious |
| 096.007 |
That he thinketh himself independent! |
| 096.008 |
Lo! unto thy Lord is the return. |
| 096.009 |
Hast thou seen him who dissuadeth |
| 096.010 |
A slave when he prayeth ? |
| 096.011 |
Hast thou seen if he relieth on the guidance (of Allah) |
| 096.012 |
Or enjoineth piety ? |
| 096.013 |
Hast thou seen if he denieth (Allah's guidance) and is froward ? |
| 096.014 |
Is he then unaware that Allah seeth ? |
| 096.015 |
Nay, but if he cease not We will seize him by the forelock - |
| 096.016 |
The lying, sinful forelock - |
| 096.017 |
Then let him call upon his henchmen! |
| 096.018 |
We will call the guards of hell. |
| 096.019 |
Nay, Obey not thou him. But prostrate thyself, and draw near (unto Allah). |
