(17) Al-Israa: The Night Journey
or Bani Isra-il: Children of Israel

سورة الإسراء

           

وَقُلْ جَاء الْحَقُّ وَزَهَقَ الْبَاطِلُ إِنَّ الْبَاطِلَ كَانَ زَهُوقًا
81. And say: "Come has the right and erased is the false, assuredly the false is ever erased."

وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مَا هُوَ شِفَاء وَرَحْمَةٌ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَلاَ يَزِيدُ الظَّالِمِينَ إَلاَّ خَسَارًا
82. And We descend with the Qur'an what is a cure and mercy to the faithful, and it increases not the oppressors except (in) loss. 

وَإِذَا أَنْعَمْنَا عَلَى الإِنسَانِ أَعْرَضَ وَنَأَى بِجَانِبِهِ وَإِذَا مَسَّهُ الشَّرُّ كَانَ يَؤُوسًا
83. And if We grant (to) the human, he averts and withdraws to his side; and if touches him does evil, he is ever despairing.

قُلْ كُلٌّ يَعْمَلُ عَلَى شَاكِلَتِهِ فَرَبُّكُمْ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ هُوَ أَهْدَى سَبِيلاً
84. Say: "Each performs (according) to his stance, so your Lord is most knowledgeable of who is (on) the more guided way."

وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الرُّوحِ قُلِ الرُّوحُ مِنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّي وَمَا أُوتِيتُم مِّن الْعِلْمِ إِلاَّ قَلِيلاً
85. And they ask you about the spirit.  Say: "The spirit is from the order of my Lord and you have not been given from the knowledge, except little."

وَلَئِن شِئْنَا لَنَذْهَبَنَّ بِالَّذِي أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ ثُمَّ لاَ تَجِدُ لَكَ بِهِ عَلَيْنَا وَكِيلاً
86. And, if We will, We surely will take away what We inspired to you; then you find not for you in it, against Us, any guardian. 

إِلاَّ رَحْمَةً مِّن رَّبِّكَ إِنَّ فَضْلَهُ كَانَ عَلَيْكَ كَبِيرًا
87. Except as a mercy from your Lord, assuredly His favor is ever, on you, great.

قُل لَّئِنِ اجْتَمَعَتِ الإِنسُ وَالْجِنُّ عَلَى أَن يَأْتُواْ بِمِثْلِ هَـذَا الْقُرْآنِ لاَ يَأْتُونَ بِمِثْلِهِ وَلَوْ كَانَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ ظَهِيرًا
88. Say: "If gathered the humans and the Jinn so that they provide similar to this Qur'an, they provide not similar to it, even if each of them is to the other a backer." 

وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَا لِلنَّاسِ فِي هَـذَا الْقُرْآنِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٍ فَأَبَى أَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ إِلاَّ كُفُورًا
89. And We have truly directed to the humans in this Qur'an from every simile, but refused did most of the humans, (all) but repudiating.

وَقَالُواْ لَن نُّؤْمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّى تَفْجُرَ لَنَا مِنَ الأَرْضِ يَنبُوعًا
90. And they said, "We will not have faith for you until you burst for us from the earth a spring..."

أَوْ تَكُونَ لَكَ جَنَّةٌ مِّن نَّخِيلٍ وَعِنَبٍ فَتُفَجِّرَ الأَنْهَارَ خِلالَهَا تَفْجِيرًا
91."...or there is for you a garden of palms and grapes and you burst the rivers throughout it, bursting!"

أَوْ تُسْقِطَ السَّمَاء كَمَا زَعَمْتَ عَلَيْنَا كِسَفًا أَوْ تَأْتِيَ بِاللّهِ وَالْمَلآئِكَةِ قَبِيلاً
92. "Or you drop the sky, as you claimed, upon us (in) pieces; or you arrive with Allah and the angels (coming) forth."

أَوْ يَكُونَ لَكَ بَيْتٌ مِّن زُخْرُفٍ أَوْ تَرْقَى فِي السَّمَاء وَلَن نُّؤْمِنَ لِرُقِيِّكَ حَتَّى تُنَزِّلَ عَلَيْنَا كِتَابًا نَّقْرَؤُهُ قُلْ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّي هَلْ كُنتُ إَلاَّ بَشَرًا رَّسُولاً
93. "Or there is for you a house of ornate designs, or you uplift into the heavens.  And we will not have faith in your uplifting until you descend upon us a writ (that) we read."  Say: "Extolled is my Lord!  Have I been but a human messenger?"

وَمَا مَنَعَ النَّاسَ أَن يُؤْمِنُواْ إِذْ جَاءهُمُ الْهُدَى إِلاَّ أَن قَالُواْ أَبَعَثَ اللّهُ بَشَرًا رَّسُولاً
94. And nothing prevented humanity from being faithful when came to them did the guidance except that they said, "Has Allah dispatched a human messenger?"

قُل لَّوْ كَانَ فِي الأَرْضِ مَلآئِكَةٌ يَمْشُونَ مُطْمَئِنِّينَ لَنَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ السَّمَاء مَلَكًا رَّسُولاً
95. Say: "If there were on Earth angels walking serenely, We would have descended on them from the heavens an angel messenger."

قُلْ كَفَى بِاللّهِ شَهِيدًا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ بِعِبَادِهِ خَبِيرًا بَصِيرًا
96. Say: "Sufficient is Allah, a witness between me and you, assuredly He is ever of His slaves most-informed, most-sighted." 

وَمَن يَهْدِ اللّهُ فَهُوَ الْمُهْتَدِ وَمَن يُضْلِلْ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُمْ أَوْلِيَاء مِن دُونِهِ وَنَحْشُرُهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ عُمْيًا وَبُكْمًا وَصُمًّا مَّأْوَاهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ كُلَّمَا خَبَتْ زِدْنَاهُمْ سَعِيرًا
97. And whomever Allah guides then he is the guided and whomever He deviates, you will find not for them trustees outside of Him.  And We mass them, The Day of Rising, on their faces blind and dumb and deaf; their shelter is Hell, whenever it fades We increase them (in) blaze.

ذَلِكَ جَزَآؤُهُم بِأَنَّهُمْ كَفَرُواْ بِآيَاتِنَا وَقَالُواْ أَئِذَا كُنَّا عِظَامًا وَرُفَاتًا أَإِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ خَلْقًا جَدِيدًا
98. That is their recompense since they have repudiated in Our signs and said, "If we were bones and remains, assuredly are we to be dispatched as a new creation?"

أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْاْ أَنَّ اللّهَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ قَادِرٌ عَلَى أَن يَخْلُقَ مِثْلَهُمْ وَجَعَلَ لَهُمْ أَجَلاً لاَّ رَيْبَ فِيهِ فَأَبَى الظَّالِمُونَ إَلاَّ كُفُورًا
99. Have they not seen that Allah, the One who created the heavens and Earth, is able to create similar to them and He made for them a
postponement, no suspicion of it, but refused did the oppressors (all) but repudiating. 

قُل لَّوْ أَنتُمْ تَمْلِكُونَ خَزَآئِنَ رَحْمَةِ رَبِّي إِذًا لَّأَمْسَكْتُمْ خَشْيَةَ الإِنفَاقِ وَكَانَ الإنسَانُ قَتُورًا
100. Say: "If you owned the stores of the mercy of my Lord, then you would withhold for fear of spending, and the human is ever stingy."
