أَفَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى كَفَرَ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا وَقَالَ لَأُوتَيَنَّ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا﴿٧٧﴾

Hast thou seen him who disbelieveth in Our revelations and saith: Assuredly I shall be given wealth and children?

أَطَّلَعَ ٱلْغَيْبَ أَمِ ٱتَّخَذَ عِندَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ عَهْدًا﴿٧٨﴾

Hath he perused the Unseen, or hath he made a pact with the Beneficent?

كَلَّا ۚ سَنَكْتُبُ مَا يَقُولُ وَنَمُدُّ لَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلْعَذَابِ مَدًّا﴿٧٩﴾

Nay, but We shall record that which he saith and prolong for him a span of torment.

وَنَرِثُهُۥ مَا يَقُولُ وَيَأْتِينَا فَرْدًا﴿٨٠﴾

And We shall inherit from him that whereof he spake, and he will come unto Us, alone (without his wealth and children).

وَٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ءَالِهَةً لِّيَكُونُوا۟ لَهُمْ عِزًّا﴿٨١﴾

And they have chosen (other) gods beside Allah that they may be a power for them.

كَلَّا ۚ سَيَكْفُرُونَ بِعِبَادَتِهِمْ وَيَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضِدًّا﴿٨٢﴾

Nay, but they will deny their worship of them, and become opponents unto them.

أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينَ عَلَى ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ تَؤُزُّهُمْ أَزًّا﴿٨٣﴾

Seest thou not that We have set the devils on the disbelievers to confound them with confusion?

فَلَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ إِنَّمَا نَعُدُّ لَهُمْ عَدًّا﴿٨٤﴾

So make no haste against them (O Muhammad). We do but number unto them a sum (of days).

يَوْمَ نَحْشُرُ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ إِلَى ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ وَفْدًا﴿٨٥﴾

On the day when We shall gather the righteous unto the Beneficent, a goodly company.

وَنَسُوقُ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ وِرْدًا﴿٨٦﴾

And drive the guilty unto hell, a weary herd,

لَّا يَمْلِكُونَ ٱلشَّفَـٰعَةَ إِلَّا مَنِ ٱتَّخَذَ عِندَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ عَهْدًا﴿٨٧﴾

They will have no power of intercession, save him who hath made a covenant with his Lord.

وَقَالُوا۟ ٱتَّخَذَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ وَلَدًا﴿٨٨﴾

And they say: The Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a son.

لَّقَدْ جِئْتُمْ شَيْـًٔا إِدًّا﴿٨٩﴾

Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing

تَكَادُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتُ يَتَفَطَّرْنَ مِنْهُ وَتَنشَقُّ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَتَخِرُّ ٱلْجِبَالُ هَدًّا﴿٩٠﴾

Whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split asunder and the mountains fall in ruins,

أَن دَعَوْا۟ لِلرَّحْمَـٰنِ وَلَدًا﴿٩١﴾

That ye ascribe unto the Beneficent a son,

وَمَا يَنۢبَغِى لِلرَّحْمَـٰنِ أَن يَتَّخِذَ وَلَدًا﴿٩٢﴾

When it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that He should choose a son.

إِن كُلُّ مَن فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَّآ ءَاتِى ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ عَبْدًا﴿٩٣﴾

There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the Beneficent as a slave.

لَّقَدْ أَحْصَىٰهُمْ وَعَدَّهُمْ عَدًّا﴿٩٤﴾

Verily He knoweth them and numbereth them with (right) numbering.

وَكُلُّهُمْ ءَاتِيهِ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ فَرْدًا﴿٩٥﴾

And each one of them will come unto Him on the Day of Resurrection, alone.
