The
Angels

By the Name

God

the Fount-of-All-Mercy
the Ever-Merciful

grateful praise
belongs to God

Hu begins
the heavens and the earth

Hu made the Angels
messengers

with wings
two
three
or four

adding to creation
as Hu wills

surely God is
powerful over everything

whatever mercy
God opens up to humankind
none can hold it back

and whatever
Hu holds back
no one can get loose

Hu is
the All-Powerful
the Wise

humankind

remember
God's blessing upon you

is there any creator
apart from God
who provides for you
out of heaven and earth?

there is no God but Hu

how then do you
choose what is false?

if they call you a liar

Messengers before you
were called liars

and to God
everything returns

humankind

God's promise is true

so do not let
the present life
deceive you

and do not let
the Deceiver
deceive you
about God

Satan
is a sure enemy to you

so take it for an enemy
that calls people
to its party
only so they
may be with those
who live in the Blaze

those who are
ungrateful

have waiting for them
a terrible punishment

but those who believe
and do good deeds

shall have forgiveness
and a great reward

and what of those
whose evil deeds
have been made
to look fair to them

so they think
they are good?

God leads to
the wrong way
whoever Hu wills

and whoever Hu wills
Hu guides

so do not let yourself
waste away
in regret for them

God knows
the things they do

God is Hu
sets loose the winds
that stir up cloud

then We drive it
to a dead land

and there
bring the earth
back to life
after it was dead

just so
will be
the Rising

whoever wants
power and glory
all power and glory
belongs to God

to Hu good words go up

and the good deed
Hu lifts it up

but those who plan
evil deeds
theirs shall be
a terrible punishment

and their plans
will come to nothing

God created you
of dust

then a drop of liquid

then Hu made you pairs

no female
is pregnant
or gives birth
without Hu knowing

and no-one is given long life
who is given long life
but it is in a Book

surely that is easy
for God

the two seas
are not equal

this one is sweet
satisfying to taste
delicious to drink

the other one is salt
bitter on the tongue

yet from both of them
you eat fresh flesh

and bring out of them
beautiful things
for you to wear

and you can see the ships
cutting through them
searching for Hu's bounty

so hopefully
you will be
thankful

Hu makes the night
enter into the day
and makes the day
enter into the night

and Hu has made
the sun and the moon
run to a fixed time

that is God
your Liege

to Hu belongs
the Realm

and those you call upon
apart from Hu
have not so much as
the skin of a date stone

if you call upon them
they will not hear your prayer

and if they heard
they would not answer you

and on the Day of Rising
they will reject
your making partners of them

no-one can tell you
like the aware

humankind

you are the ones
that have need of God

Hu is
the Rich-beyond-Need
the Most-Praiseworthy

if Hu wills
Hu can finish with you
and bring about
a new creation

that is surely
no great matter
for God

no soul
weighed down
carries the load
of another

and if anyone
with a heavy load
calls for help in carrying it
nothing of it will be carried
even by close family

you only warn those
who fear their Liege
in the unseen

and make the Sala

and those who
clean themselves
only clean themselves
for their own good

to God is the homecoming

not equal are

the blind and those who see

the shadows and the light

cool shade and fierce heat

not equal are

the living and the dead

God makes to hear
whoever Hu wills

you cannot make
those in their graves
hear

you are nothing but a warner

surely We have sent you
with the truth

to bring good news
and a warning

there is not a people
that has not had
a warner pass away in it

if they call you a liar

those before them
also called it lies

their Messengers
came to them
with the Clear Signs

the Psalms
and the Book
giving light

then I seized
those that were
ungrateful

and how was
My horror

have you not seen
how God sends down
water out of heaven

and with it
We bring out
fruits
of different colours?

and in the mountains
are streaks of white
and red
and different colours

and black like pitch

and humankind
and wild beasts
and livestock
have many
different colours
like that

even so

only those of
Hu's servants
who have knowledge
fear God

God is
All-Powerful
Most-Forgiving

those who speak
the Book of God

and make the Sala

and spend from
what We have provided them
in secret and in the open

look for a trade
that will never
grow less

that Hu may pay them
their wages in full

and make them rich
from Hu's bounty

surely Hu is
Most-Forgiving
All-Thankful

and what We have
revealed to you
of the Book
is the truth

making clear
the truth of
what came before it

God is aware of
and sees
Hu's servants

then We handed down
the Book
to those of Our servants
We chose

but some of them
wrong themselves

some of them
sit on the fence

and some
race against each other
in doing good works

by the grace of God
that is the great bounty

Gardens of Eden
they shall enter

there they will be
beautifully dressed

with bracelets of gold

and pearls

and their clothes there
shall be of silk

and they will say

"Grateful praise
belongs to God

Hu has put away
all sorrows from us

surely our Liege is
Most-Forgiving
All-Thankful

and of Hu's bounty
has made us live

in the home of
everlasting life

where we are never
weak or tired"

as for those who are
ungrateful

theirs will be
the fires of Hell

where they will not
be brought to an end
so they can die

nor will its punishment
get any lighter for them

that is how We punish
those who are
ungrateful

in it they will shout

"Our Liege

let us out
and we will do
what is right

not like
what we did before"

"What

did We not give you
long life

enough to remember in
if you wanted to remember?

the warner came to you

now taste

those who do evil
will have no helper"

God knows
the unseen
in the heavens and the earth

Hu knows the thoughts
within the breast

it is Hu
made you as deputies
in the earth

so whoever was
ungrateful

their being ungrateful
will be charged
against them

their being ungrateful
only increases
those who are ungrateful
in hate
in the sight of their Liege

their being ungrateful
only increases
those who are ungrateful
in loss

say

"Have you thought about
the partner-gods
to whom you call
apart from God?

show me what
they have
created in the earth"

or do they have
a partnership
in the heavens?

or have We given them
a Book
so that they can follow
a Clear Sign from it?

no

those who do evil
promise each other
nothing but
what is not real

God holds
the heavens and the earth
keeping them
from vanishing away

if they vanished
no-one
would hold them
after Hu

Hu is
Gentle
Most-Forgiving

they have sworn by God
the most solemn of promises

that if a warner
came to them
they would be
more right guided
than any other people

but when a warner
came to them
it only made them
more against it

growing proud in the land
and plotting to do evil

but evil plotting
only surrounds
those who do it

do they expect anything
other than what happened
to people from before?

and you will never find
any change in
the wish of God

and you will never find
any altering of
the wish of God

have they not travelled
in the land
and seen
what was the end
of those before them?

they were greater than them
in strength

but God

there is nothing in
the heavens or the earth
that can stand in Hu's way

Hu is
All-Knowing
All-Capable

if God made
humankind
face justice
for what they have earned

Hu would not leave
on the face of the earth
one creature that crawls

but Hu is leaving them
until a decided time

but when their time is come
surely God sees
Hu's servants
