(in Compilation Order)
[Not sure if we can summarize this chapter of the Quran, which is considered to be one of its most powerful. It is recited 2-4 times by all Muslims during each of their 5 daily obligatory prayers. It is a small chapter of which almost the full translation is presented below.]
Praise be to God - Lord of the Worlds. The Most Merciful, Compassionate. Ruler of the Judgement Day. God we worship, and to God we seek help.
(O God) Guide us to the right path - path of those blessed with grace; not of those who have incurred God's wrath, nor those who have gone astray.
Quran is a clear book of guidance for those who fear God, believe in unseen, establish prayer, spend out of what is provided, believe revelations, and are certain of the Hereafter. These are the successful ones. Disbelievers shall disbelieve whether warned or not. Hypocrites, too, will be punished.
God has power over everything. Believe in the One God who created everything, and blessed you. Disbelievers are challenged to bring forth revelation and the partners associated to God. Believers shall have Paradise in Hereafter. Resurrection is easy for God.
Iblis/Satan is one of the disbelievers, who wants to misguide man. But God accepts repentance, for God is Most Merciful. Believers shall have nothing to fear or grieve. Be grateful for favors. Seek help through patience and prayer - which is hard except for the humble, who believe in the return to God. Even people of the Book who believe in God and the Last Day, and do good, shall have their rewards from God.
Don't knowingly tamper the way of God. God knows all secrets. Be kind to your kin. You cannot believe in part of the revelation. None deny God's clear signs except sinners.
Don't be involved in black magic. God will judge among those who accuse others' religion. Don't bar anyone from mosques. Muhammad (PBUH) is a bearer of good news, and a warner, who shall not be questioned about disbelievers.
Disbelief after belief shall lead to punishment. Be submitters to God like Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) and Ismail/Eshmael (PBUH). Follow their religion. The change in Qibla (from Jerusalem to Makkah) was as per God's guidance.
Compete with each other in doing good deeds. Those who die in the way of God are not dead. There shall be good for those who bear patience during trials - to God shall we return. Love God above all else.
Eat what is lawful and good, and stay away from evil, indecencies and from saying things you know not about God. No sin, if compelled by necessity, to eat prohibited foods. Practice equality in punishment - don't exceed limit. When wealth is left behind, bequeath it equitably to parents and near relatives. It is sinful to change will. Fasting is prescribed to fear God - fast in Ramadan to give thanks for being guided. God answers prayers. Spouses are garments for each other.
Don't devour others' property. Fight in the way of God, with those who fight you - don't transgress. Persecution is worse than slaughter. Perform Hajj and Umrah (forms of pilgrimage). Take provisions for the journey; best provision is the fear of God.
Seek forgiveness. God dislikes corruption and quarrels. Life of this world is beautified to disbelievers. God guides whom God wills. Wine and gambling are great sins. Don't marry polytheists. Menstruation is a hurtful impurity. God loves those who purify. Detailed guidelines given about divorce to protect both parties.
No soul shall be burdened beyond its capacity. No sin if you hint at marriage proposal or hide it in heart. Don't contract in secrecy. Guard your prayers. Charity is like loan to God that will be multiplied. There is no compulsion in religion. Kind words and forgiveness are better than charity followed by injury. Spend of what is good.
God gives wisdom to whom God wills. Don't take interest/usury. Trading is permitted. Interest is prohibited. Be kind to debtors. Detailed guidelines given about agreement with debtors. God does not burden any soul beyond its capacity.
There is only One God - the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsistent, the Sustainer of all beings. God sent down Quran confirming truth. God had also sent down the Torah and Gospel before, as guidance, and God sent down the Criterion (judging between right and wrong).
For disbelievers is severe torment. God is Almighty, All-Knowing. Pray for guidance and mercy. God will gather all on the undoubted Last Day - when no wealth or progeny (children/descendants) will avail the disbelievers, to save from Hell.
Ponder over the signs of God. Mankind finds this world alluring. But Paradise is much better - promised to believers who are steadfast, truthful, devoutly obedient, spend in the way of God, and implore forgiveness at dawn.
People of the Book who disbelieve in Quran, do so due to envy. Muhammad's (PBUH) duty was only to convey the message. On Last Day, every soul shall be paid in full for what it has earned. Don't take disbelievers as friends (or patrons) in preference over believers, except as a precaution to guard yourself. Beware of God alone. To God we shall return. If you love God, follow Muhammad (PBUH) - God will love you back and forgive. God chose the Prophets above all.
The wife of Imran prayed for a child, and vowed to devote it to God's service. Mariam/Mary (PBUH) was born; accepted by God. She was entrusted to Zakariyyah/Zacharia (PBUH) who prayed to God for a child for himself, when he saw Mariam/Mary (PBUH) blessed with sustenance. God gave him Yahya/John (PBUH) as son.
Mariam/Mary (PBUH) was given news of a son - Isa/Jesus (PBUH). She was shocked since she was chaste. But God creates easily. Isa/Jesus (PBUH) was a sign from God, with special powers, to confirm Torah and to make certain forbidden things lawful, and to lead to straight path.
He got disciples to help in the cause. Disbelievers plotted and God also plotted. God is the best of planners. God told Isa/Jesus (PBUH) that he will be raised to God, and purified of evil of disbelievers, and that God will place those who follow him above disbelievers till Day of resurrection.
Isa/Jesus (PBUH) is like Adam (PBUH) - created by God (without the involvement of a male). Disbelievers are challenged about Isa/Jesus (PBUH) and also about Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) who was neither a Jew nor a Christian; but a Muslim (translated as submitter to God), never one of the idolaters.
A party among the People of the Book long to make you go astray; but they go astray themselves. Among People of the Book, there are good people and bad. Some twist the Scriptures.
Prophets agreed to God to believe in other Prophets who follow them. To God submits all in the heavens and earth. No religion other than Islam (translated as submission to God) will be accepted by God.
Repentance will not be accepted from those who disbelieved after belief. To attain piety, spend from that which you love/cherish.
The first House of worship was indeed that in Makkah. Go there for pilgrimage if you have the means.
Die not but in the state of submission to God. Don't be divided. Be grateful. Believers will have protection from God. Do not devour interest income. Race to forgiveness. God loves those who spend in times of prosperity as well as adversity, restrain anger, and forgive others. Repent of sins committed. Travel and see the fate of those who disbelieved earlier.
Sufferings are trials from God. Even if you try to stay at home, death will come at appointed time. God gives and takes life.
Forgiveness and mercy from God are better than what we amass in this world. Put trust in God, pardon the disbelievers and pray for God's forgiveness for them. Prophets don't deceive. Muhammad (PBUH) is a favor for us, who came with God's revelations, purifies us and teaches us the Book and wisdom.
Those who die in the way of God are not dead - they have the bounties and blessings from God. Believers will get Paradise. They consider God as sufficient for them - an excellent Guardian.
Disbelievers don't harm God; they get Hell. Paradise must be the goal. Be conscious of God, and believe, and pray. Do not be deceived by the flourishing of disbelievers in this world. Persevere in patience, excel in patience, be ever-ready and fear God.
Fear God who created all of mankind from a single soul, and from it created a mate, and then multiplied it. Fear God through Whom we demand our rights from one another. Don’t sever ties of kinship. God is Ever-Watchful.
Don't oppress orphans. If you can't treat all wives equally, marry only one. Guidelines given on dowries. Treat the mentally deficient fairly and be kind to them. Guidelines given on inheritance rights of men and women.
Whoever obeys God and Muhammad (PBUH) will get Paradise; others get hell. Guidelines given on adultery. Upon God lies forgiveness of those who repent. Guidelines given on marriage and divorce.
God desires to guide you and grant mercy by narrating examples from the past. This is to reduce burden, since man was created weak.
Don't consume wealth wrongfully. Trade by mutual consent.
Don't kill each other. If you avoid major sins, God will remit your smaller sins, and grant Paradise. Ask God for bounty. Some might excel over others. Give dues as per contracts.
Men are maintainers of women. Virtuous women are obedient. Punish those who aren't, and forgive if they obey. Appoint arbiter if you fear breach.
Worship God alone - no associate. Show kindness to parents and near of kin, orphans, needy, neighbor, traveller, wayfarer and slaves. God doesn't love those who are proud and boastful. Stingy ones will be punished. God wrongs not as much as the weight of an atom. Good deeds are doubled. Don't pray when intoxicated, when unclean. Use dust to clean if water is unavailable. God is Forgiving.
Believe in teachings of this Book. Don't be like the ones who changed words of the previous Scriptures. Some of them call themselves pure. For God, they are easily replaceable. Obey God, Muhammad (PBUH) and those in authority. If there's any dispute, refer to God and Muhammad (PBUH). Hypocrites will be punished.
Surrender in complete submission. Why should you not fight in the way of God, for the helpless who pray to God for a protector/helper? This world is for a little while - Hereafter is better. So, don't shy away from fighting in the way of God. Wherever you are, death will overtake you.
Don't be ungrateful. Ponder over the Quran. If it wasn't from God, there would have been many inconsistencies.
Whoever mediates in a good cause will have its reward. Others will be punished. When greeted, return a better greeting.
God keeps count of everything. No doubt that there will be Day of Resurrection. Don't seek to guide hypocrites. Punish them.
Guidelines are given regarding punishment for murder. Those believers who strive are a rank above other believers. If oppressed, emigrate if you can, since the earth is spacious - you will find refuge and abundance.
When traveling, prayer can be curtailed. Prayer has been prescribed at fixed times. There is reward for those who enjoin charity, piety or making peace between people.
Follow the tradition and religion of Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) who submitted to God; who God chose as an intimate friend.
To God belongs everything. Be firm in justice, even if against relatives. Disbelief after belief will not be forgiven. God dislikes the open utterances of harsh words, unless a person has been wronged. God knows all good done - open or secret - and if one pardons another. Belief can't be done in parts - such are disbelievers.
Wrong was done to Musa/Moses (PBUH). But God bestowed him clear authority.
Isa/Jesus (PBUH) was not crucified, but appeared so to them. God raised him up to God. God is Mighty, Wise. Isa/Jesus (PBUH) will be a witness against the ones who believe in him (as God), on the Day of Resurrection. But those of People of the Book who believe in what has been sent to Muhammad (PBUH) and before, who are diligent in prayer and pay charity, believe in God and Last Day, will get mighty rewards. Isa/Jesus (PBUH) was only a messenger. Quran is a clear proof and guidance.
The believers are to fulfil their pacts/promises. Guidelines are given on prohibited food. Hunting is prohibited while on pilgrimage. God decrees whatsoever desired.
Help one another in righteousness and piety, not in sin and aggression. Fear God. God is severe in punishment. Islam (submission) is chosen as your religion. God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Lawful for marriage are believing women and those even from People of Book. Purify yourselves before prayer. Act justly and be among those who believe and do good, for them is forgiveness and mighty reward (Paradise). Others will get Hell. Bani Israel were cursed for rejecting - yet pardon them and bear with them. God loves those who are kind to others.
Quran is a clarification to People of the Book, whereby God guides and brings them forth from darkness to light. God doesn't have sons. To God belongs all powers and the kingdom of heavens and earth and everything in between. To God shall all return.
Grieve not for sinners. God accepts sacrifice only from those who fear God. Murderers are losers, except if done as retaliation for manslaughter or spreading mischief. Bury the dead. Killing one is like killing all mankind. Saving one is like saving all mankind.
Believers are to seek the means to draw near to God, and to strive in God's way so that they may prosper. Nothing would avail disbelievers from hell.
Guidelines are given on theft. Whoever repents after evildoing and makes amends, God will forgive. Had God willed, God could have made all as one community. It is not so, so that God may try us by what God has given us. So, compete in good works.
Take not People of Book as friends, or be seduced. You can be easily replaced by God. Your friends are only God, Muhammad (PBUH) and believers who keep up prayer, pay alms and prostrate to God. Such believers will be victorious.
Take not People of Book and hypocrites as protectors. Had they believed and feared God, they would have been admitted to Paradise. Surely, those who believe and do right from among People of Book shall not fear or grieve. Despite being sent many messengers, Bani Israel denied if something was against their inner selves.
Whoever associates partners or sons to God shall be punished. Isa/Jesus (PBUH) was no more than a Messenger. Jews and idolaters will be found to be vehemently hostile to believers. Christians will be found to be nearest to believers in affection. When they listen to revelation, they may have tears because of the truth they recognize.
Believers are not to forbid the good things that God has made lawful for them. Don't exceed the bounds. God does not love the transgressors. Eat of that which is lawful.
Guidelines are given on breaking oaths. Intoxicants, games of chance and divining arrows are wrong - from Shaitan's/Satan's handiwork. Avoid them to be successful. Shaitan/Satan uses them to turn you away from the remembrance of God and prayer.
God will try you with what you hunt. God knows who fears even in secret. Game of the sea (hunt) is lawful.
The Ka'bah is a secure asylum for mankind - and the fixing of a sacred month, and the sacrifice - these are for us to understand that God has knowledge of everything.
Not alike are the impure and the pure, even though abundance of the impure may impress you. Believers are not to ask about things which if revealed, would trouble them. God has kept it away, for God is Forgiving, Clement.
Disbelievers blindly follow what their forefathers followed. You are responsible for your own souls. Disbelievers rejected the blessings and signs of Isa/Jesus (PBUH). He was sent a table of food from God as requested by his disciples. Isa/Jesus (PBUH) will be questioned if he asked people to take him and his mother as gods. He will say no and that to God belongs all glory, and that he only told what was commanded to him. He will also ask God to punish or forgive the people based on God’s will.
Praise God, Who created everything. Don't be among the disbelievers who deny truth and ascribe partners to God. Ponder over God's creations. God destroyed previous generations who disbelieved. If God afflicts you, none can save you. If God blesses, none can deprive you of it. Never invent lies against God nor deny revelation. Life of this world is a sport and a diversion. Hereafter is better and everlasting. All creatures will be returned to God. God will lead whom God wills astray, and others will be set on straight path. Whoever believes and does right, they shall have no fear or grief.
Prophets are only warners and bearers of good news. God asks Muhammad (PBUH) to say that he cannot promise treasures, nor predict the unseen. God knows everything, and is Omnipotent. Withdraw from those who scoff revelations, and do not sit in their company. Quran is a blessed book. Worship God. Don't abuse others' gods, lest they abuse God in retaliation.
Eat permissible foods. Forsake sin. Disbelieving jinn and mankind will be answerable to God. Myths about cattle are fabrication that God dislikes. Those who killed their children are losers. Consume God's blessings and give your dues. God provides sustenance for all. God tasks not any soul beyond its capacity. Be just. Those who create divisions in religion will be punished. Good deeds are rewarded tenfold. Evil deeds are calculated only once. God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Quran is a reminder about the destruction of the disbelievers by God, and the blessings that we should be grateful for. Iblis/Satan challenged God, that if given time until Day of Resurrection for punishment (for disobeying God's instruction to prostrate before Adam PBUH), he would prove how ungrateful humans are. Stories of Iblis's (Satan's) games on Adam (PBUH), Nuh/Noah (PBUH), Hud (PBUH), Salih (PBUH), Lut/Lot (PBUH), Shuaib (PBUH), and Musa/Moses (PBUH) are explained. The coming of Muhammad (PBUH) was hinted to Musa/Moses (PBUH) - as a warner chosen for mankind. We are asked to remember God, morning and evening, and not to ascribe any partners to the One God.
Muhammad (PBUH) is asked to inform those who ask about the spoils of war, that it belongs to God and the Messenger. True believers are those who fear God, whose faith increases with revelations, who trust God, are steadfast in prayer and spend from what is provided. They will get Paradise.
Victory comes only from God, the Almighty. Disbelievers will be punished. Obey commands of God and the Messenger when he calls to that which will give you life. Possessions and children are tests. With God is the mighty reward. God is the best of plotters. Proper guardians of Holy Mosque are the believers. Those who bar them will get hell. If disbelievers stop persecution, their past will be forgiven.
Detailed guidelines given on splitting of war booty.
Remember God much so that you may succeed against enemy. Shaitaan/Satan makes their deeds seem fair to disbelievers. If they incline to peace, you also should, and trust God. If they try to deceive, God is sufficient for you. Those who migrated and those who gave shelter are friends. God will bless them with generous provisions.
Disbelievers are asked to repent. It will be better for them. Honor agreements made with them. God loves the righteous. Lead idolaters by example so that they may hear the word of God. God loves those who observe their duty. Don't trust idolaters. If they break their oaths, then fight their leaders. God will give you victory. Idolaters are not to tend to Mosques.
Those who believe and have struggled with their wealth and lives in the way of God are of much higher rank for God. They shall have Paradise.
Don't consider even family relations when it comes to idolaters - also not your possessions, commerce and dwellings/homes. Idolaters are forbidden from the Holy Mosque. If you fear poverty (from loss of trade hence) God will enrich you. Protect yourselves from attacks of People of Book also. Jews say Uzair/Ezra (PBUH) is son of God. Christians say Isa/Jesus (PBUH) is son of God. God it is Who sent guidance and the religion of Truth to Muhammad (PBUH) so that it may prevail over other religions.
Those who fraudulently consume wealth and prevent people from the way of God, will be punished. Follow the discipline of sacred rituals as prescribed by God. Postponing them is sign of unbelief. Life of Hereafter is far better and lasting than life of this world. If we don't go forth in the way of God, we will be punished. Believers will be blessed with tranquility and support, and disbelievers' intents will be demolished. Nothing befalls us save what God has prescribed. God is our Protector. In God let the believers put all their trust. Let not the possessions and children of disbelievers perplex you.
There will be some who say they are with you (in your way for God), but they are not true at heart. Guidelines are given on charity from bounty. Those who hurt Muhammad (PBUH) will have painful doom. Believers must swear by God and Messenger (PBUH) and not each other. God knows the hypocrites who mock God and Messenger (PBUH). The righteous shall not be blamed, without valid excuses (when going forth in the way of God).
Don't consider what you spend in the way of God as a loss. God is Forgiving, Merciful. Charity is a way of cleansing from sins. God accepts repentance. God is All-Knowing, Wise.
God knows those who try to divide believers; they will get hell. God has bought from believers their lives and possessions in return for Paradise - those who repent, serve, praise God, bow down, prostrate in worship, enjoin right, forbid wrong and keep the limits of God.
Don't pray for forgiveness of idolaters, even if near of kin. Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) disowned his father, after initially praying for him, when he knew he was an enemy of God.
God guides. To God belongs everything. God gives life and death. We have no other protector or helper. God is kind, compassionate and merciful to those who turn to God. Fear God and be with the Truthful. God doesn't waste the wage of the good. Every deed is recorded.
Believers shall not all go forth together (when at war). Some should stay back to teach faith to others. Messenger (PBUH) was very grievous for sins of his people. God is enough for him and us.
Disbelievers wonder why Quran was revealed to a man. Surely God is the sole Creator, All-Powerful, to Whom we shall all return. God creates to justly reward those who believe and punish the disbelievers. Ponder over God's creations. Fire will be the home for those who are well-pleased with life of this world and feel secure. At the time of misfortune, one turns to God, but turns away when the affliction is removed - ungrateful. Quran is not to be altered. No greater wrong than forging lie against God, and denying revelation.
Muhammad (PBUH) isn't responsible if we believe or not. Only God knows when the Last Day will come. Nothing escapes being recorded/witnessed by God. There are lessons in stories of Prophets Nuh/Noah (PBUH), Musa/Moses (PBUH) and Haroon/Aron (PBUH). All the people of Yunus/Jonah (PBUH) believed, and hence God withheld their punishment.
If God wills affliction upon you, none can remove it but God. If God wills good for you, none can avert God's bounty. God is Forgiving.
Quran contains perfect verses explained by God, Who is Wise and informed of all things. Don't worship any but the One God. Muhammad (PBUH) is just a Messenger. Repent and believe, for God can see through hearts, and to God shall we all return. Everything is recorded in a clear record. Man is ungrateful for kindness and relief. Be from those who are patient, and do good - forgiveness and a mighty reward will they have. Quran is from God, and can't be replicated by any. For those who desire the life of this world and its adornments, they will be repaid for their deeds. Don't forge lies against God.
Stay humble, believe and do good. Nuh/Noah (PBUH) was guided. He was accepted by the poor. The rich ignored him. He said his wage is from God alone. God asked him to build a ship. He was mocked. Even his son, who was among disbelievers, was extinguished. Hud (PBUH) was sent to the tribe of Aad, asking no reward for himself. Saleh (PBUH) was sent to the tribe of Thamud similarly. All these people had been believing in other gods.
Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) was visited by three people (angels in disguise) who were on the way to punish the people of Lut/Lot (PBUH). They gave him news of birth of Ishaaq/Isaac (PBUH) despite Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) and wife being old. Shuaib (PBUH) was sent to Madyan, asking to serve the One God, and to avoid corruption. Musa/Moses (PBUH) was sent to Pharaoh. Surely, these are signs for those who have sense. Nobody will be punished by God unjustly.
Quran is to indicate right and wrong. From the story of Yusuf/Joseph (PBUH), we can learn much. Don't relate good dreams to others as it could lead to jealousy and evil plotting. Others may not be able to value you correctly. God has plans; so always trust God. Don't get seduced to commit sins. Remain steadfast. Others might forget the favors you did for them. Forgive others for their misdeeds/attacks as it is Shaitan/Satan who creates strife.
Quran is a reminder. Don't be ignorant of it, and the other signs of God. Hereafter is better for believers. Learn from stories of Prophets, which are not fabricated ones; but a confirmation, guidance and mercy.
The Quran is a book of truth revealed from God. Yet, most people disbelieve. God it is who created and has power over everything. In God's creations are signs for people to ponder, to be certain of meeting with God. Resurrection is easy for God.
Disbelievers will be punished in hell-fire. Verily God forgives. Disbelievers seek more signs.
Muhammad (PBUH) is only a warner, and every nation has its guide. God knows everything. Apart from God, there is no protector if any misfortune is to come our way. True worship is to be for God alone. The believers shall get rewarded - those who follow what is told, stay away from what is forbidden, are steadfast in faith, seeking God's pleasure, establish prayer, spend of what is provided - secretly and openly - and overcome evil with good.
God increases or decreases provisions as God wills. In the remembrance of God do hearts find peace. God watches over every soul and its actions.
You can't believe in parts of the Scripture, and if you should disbelieve after knowledge has come, then you will have no protector against God.
Messengers have been sent earlier also, and they can't bring signs except by the leave of God. Disbelievers may plot, but God is the Master at plotting. God is sufficient as a witness that Muhammad (PBUH) is a Messenger.
Quran is to bring forth mankind from darkness to light. To God belongs everything. Terrible punishment awaits those who love this world over the Hereafter, and who mislead believers.
God always sent Messengers who spoke the language of their people, to give clarity. Though man is thankless, God is Self-Sufficient. Consider stories of people of the past, who rejected clear signs of their Prophets - nothing will remain of what they earned. God can easily replace humans with another creation.
Shaitan/Satan will disown disbelievers on Last Day and ask to blame themselves for their situation.
Believers will enter Paradise in peace. They are to establish worship and spend that which God gave - secretly and openly.
Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) sought forgiveness and mercy for all, from God. He was thankful to God.
God is All-Knowing. Remember the Last Day. No more time will be given that day. God will repay each soul that day. This is a clear message for people to pay attention.
God has revealed the Quran which is a clear reminder. God protects it. The disbelievers will regret at the appointed time (Day of Resurrection). They mocked Prophets despite examples of previous nations. The constellations, earth, mountains, wind, rain, living beings, and their livelihood and sustenance are signs to ponder. God gives death and is the ultimate inheritor.
Iblis/Satan was reprieved until Last Day to try and misguide man, after which he and the disbelievers will be punished in Hell. God is Forgiving and Merciful. Visitors to Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) and Lut/Lot (PBUH) and their news were signs. The Fatiha (The Opening Chapter of Quran) and Quran are as mercy. Muhammad (PBUH) was asked to keep warning idolaters, who will be answerable.
When distressed, praise God, prostrate, serve God till the inevitable death comes upon you.
God's decree (Judgement Day) will come to pass; so don't hasten it. God is above all that they associate. God has sent revelations and given many blessings to man. God created man from a sperm-drop - yet he is arrogant. In God's blessings are signs for those who have sense. If you try to count all your blessings, you will not be able to finish counting.
God knows what is hidden and revealed. Those who rejected will be punished in Hell. Believers will get Paradise - to stay forever.
Disbelievers say that if God had wished, they would not have disbelieved. God had sent Messengers to every people; nothing incumbent (necessary) upon them but to deliver message. God is All-Powerful - God says 'Be' and it is.
For those who emigrated after being oppressed, God will give good abode, and the Hereafter is better too. Don't be ungrateful.
Don't mess with revelations. Feeling disgraced if having a daughter is ill judgement. God has left all without punishment for an appointed term, which can't be moved. Spend in the way of God. Ponder. Be grateful. No recourse after death - no repentance then.
Those whom they used to associate with God can't help - instead, they will speak up against disbelievers. God commands justice, thoughtfulness, charity and forbids lewdness (vulgarity), wickedness and corruption. Don't promise only to deceive. What is with us will perish - that with God will endure.
When reading Quran, seek protection from Shaitan/Satan. Quran is not a work of any man. It was sent through the Holy Spirit. Seek guidance.
Disbelief after belief earns God's wrath. Every soul is responsible for its own deeds. Eat of the lawful and pure things, and be grateful. Dead animal, blood, swine, and that on which the name of any other than God is taken are prohibited. But, if compelled, God is Forgiving and Merciful. What are forbidden, were so for Jews too - they are unjust to themselves.
Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) was guided and blessed. God revealed to Muhammad (PBUH) to follow the faith of Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH). Invite to the path of God.
If you have to punish, let retaliation be proportionate. But more desirable is to be patient. Don't be grieved or distressed. God is with those who are God-fearing and benevolent.
As one of the signs from God, Muhammad (PBUH) was taken, on one night, from Masjid Al Haram (in Makkah) to Masjid Al Aqsa (in Jerusalem).
The Quran is a guidance. Those who disbelieve will be punished. Believers who do good will be rewarded. Deeds will be hung around our necks, and we will be asked to read from a book on the Day of Judgement - witness being our own selves. Those who accept guidance will be benefitted. The opposite will be in peril. No one bears the burden of another.
Messengers were sent to warn. Worship only the One God. Be good to parents and pray for them. God is forgiving if you are upright. Give money to relatives, needy and traveller. Spendthrift who squander wealth are devil's brothers. God gives abundantly or sparingly to whom God pleases. Don't kill children for fear of poverty. God provides. Don't fornicate (sex outside marriage). Don't kill any except by way of justice. Don't approach property of orphan. Fulfil agreements. In trade, give full measure and let scales be even. Don't occupy yourself with that of which you have no knowledge. Don't be arrogant.
When one reads Quran, there is an invisible veil between the reader and the disbelievers. The latter question resurrection. Be considerate in speech - Shaitan/Satan creates discord. God is All-Knowing. Some Prophets are above others. Dawood/David (PBUH) was given Zaboor (Psalms). Whoever the disbelievers call upon besides the One God cannot help them. God sent signs which they rejected. The vision showed to Muhammad (PBUH) was a trial for people, like the cursed tree.
Remember the creation of Adam (PBUH). Iblis/Satan didn't prostrate as instructed. None of God's true servants will follow Iblis/Satan. Be grateful. We need God's protection and blessings. Last Day will come. Keep up prayer and read Quran at dawn. Pray extra at night to seek a higher position. Quran is a healing and a mercy.
Spirit is something of which we have been given very little knowledge. Even if mankind and jinn-kind joined hands, they can't create a book like the Quran. Muhammad (PBUH) is just a human chosen. Provisions are given by God. Even if treasures were given, disbelievers wouldn't spend.
God gave Musa/Moses (PBUH) nine signs. Pharaoh was punished for disbelieving. Quran is sent down with Muhammad (PBUH) who is a bearer of good tidings and a warner. Believers glorify God, weep, and see increase in humility. Do not recite, during prayer, very loudly or too low. God has no son, nor any partner, nor a protector. Proclaim God's greatness as befits God's Majesty.
Praise God Who revealed the Quran to God's servant without any crookedness, to warn people about the severe punishment of disbelievers and to bring news of Paradise to believers. It is wrong to say God has chosen a son. All that is in the earth is a trial for those of better conduct. God can bring back the dead to life easily (like the men of the cave), after a number of years. There is no doubt about the Hour. No need to dispute or guess regarding stories of past referred to in Quran - God knows best - learn lessons.
When committing anything for future, use 'if God wills'. Remember God when you forget something, to seek guidance. Read Quran. No one can change it. No protector besides God. Stay close patiently with those who believe and pray morning and evening; don't turn away from them, seeking glamour of this world. Don't obey disbelievers, who will have Hell. Their priorities are confused.
You may have less in wealth and children on earth. But God will bless those who believe and do good works with Paradise in Hereafter. Think of the Last Day, when we will be accountable for our deeds.
Iblis is an enemy of man since the beginning. Ponder over signs and stories of former peoples. Messengers were sent as warners and bearers of good news. Those who ignore do great wrong. God is Forgiving and Merciful.
From the story of Musa/Moses (PBUH) and Khidr (PBUH), God teaches that man forgets easily, and that we can't bear (with patience) that which is beyond our knowledge. Dhulqarnain (PBUH) was blessed with power. He helped build a barrier to block Ya'jooj/Gog and Ma'jooj/Magog until Last Day.
Zakariyyah/Zacharia (PBUH) was blessed with a son Yahya/John (PBUH) at a very old age. This was easy for God.
Maryam/Mary (PBUH) was informed of pregnancy by Jibreel/Gabriel (PBUH) although she was never with a man; living in seclusion. She wanted to die of mental (shame) and physical pain due to pregnancy; but Jibreel/Gabriel (PBUH) informed of more blessings - stream and dates - and asked her not to speak on that day (of childbirth). When people mocked her after childbirth, the child - Isa/Jesus (PBUH) - himself spoke saying that he is a Prophet of God.
Isa/Jesus (PBUH) is not a son of God. When God decrees it 'Be', it becomes. Disbelievers, who forget Prophets whom God gave us as a mercy, neglect prayer and follow lusts, will be punished. Repent, believe, do good, and get Paradise.
Quran was revealed not to distress - but as a reminder from God; the Creator, Merciful, Knower of everything spoken or hidden.
The various events in the life of Musa/Moses (PBUH) are mentioned to learn lessons such as how difficult it is to convince people to believe, how they can easily be seduced to be evil again after belief, how God blesses and to be patient.
There is only one God. Disbelievers will be punished. Believers will get Paradise. Read Quran and ponder.
Adam (PBUH) forgot because of Iblis/Satan, who promised immortality and kingdom/wealth. So, he and his wife were sent to earth until a fixed term to test.
Many generations of disbelievers were destroyed. Pray and remember, so that you may find peace. Hereafter is better than this world; everlasting too.
Man turns away heedlessly from warnings of the Last Day. God is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. They accuse Muhammad (PBUH) of making up the revelations. God destroyed towns before, too, as punishment for disbelieving men who were sent Messengers. Others who know previous scriptures can confirm. God is Mighty, to Whom belongs everything. Don't be too proud to worship. Don’t ascribe partners to God. God has no son. God tests you with good and evil, as a trial. All of us will return to God.
Don't be in haste regarding Last Day. Nobody can change its time except God. Disbelievers will regret when it comes upon them suddenly. No soul shall be wronged on that Day. God protects, guides, blesses and has mercy on the Messengers. Disbelievers have broken up their religion into pieces. They will be punished in Hell. Believers will get Paradise. Muhammad (PBUH) was sent as a mercy to mankind. God is One. Surrender to God.
Fear God. The Last Day is a great catastrophe indeed. Disbelievers in God will mislead believers (as friends) and lead to hell. Resurrection is easy for God. God is the truth.
Those who are content when fortune comes and loses belief when it is not there, are losers in Hereafter. Those who believe and do good works will get Paradise.
Quran is a clear sign, and God guides whom God wills. God is All-Powerful.
Those who disbelieve and bar people from the Sacred Mosque (Haram) will be punished. It is indeed for all of mankind. Pilgrimage is proclaimed for mankind. Whoever reveres the sacred rites of God, it will be better for them before God.
Don't be idolaters or ascribe partners to God. To every nation God had prescribed a ritual of sacrifice. Your God is One God, therefore submit to God. When animals are sacrificed (during rituals) in the name of God, your piety reaches God - not the flesh and blood of the animal.
Glad news for those who do good. Permission is granted to those who are oppressed to fight back, especially those oppressed simply because of faith in God. God will help them who, if power is given to them, they would establish worship, pay alms, enjoin good and forbid evil.
God has punished towns in the past who objected to Prophets (PBUH). Travel and see the signs of such. All shall return to God. Muhammad (PBUH) is a plain warner, like the previous ones. Devil creates doubts in revelations. God reinforces revelations.
God will judge between all on the Last Day. God will help those who had to suffer in life due to faith. God is Merciful, man is ungrateful.
Don't dispute regarding rituals. Those whom disbelievers call upon besides God can't do anything. Weak are both the seeker and the sought. Prosperity will come to believers who prostrate, worship, do good, and strive for God. God is your Protector.
Successful believers are those who are humble in prayers, turn away from idle pursuits, pay zakat, restrain from illicit sexual desires, are true to their pledges and covenants, and strict with prayers. They will enter Paradise to stay forever. God created you, will make you die, and then resurrect. God gives provisions. God tests, even using own family (like in the case of Nuh/Noah PBUH).
Time and again people rejected Messengers and God punished them. God is All-Aware. There's only one religion. But man has broken it up, each happy with their version.
Don't think wealth and sons on earth are always signs of blessing. Those who believe in revelations, who don't ascribe partners to God, who give with fear of when they return to God, and do good, are the foremost. God doesn't burden any soul beyond its capacity. God has true record. Messengers asked for no compensation. Believe and be grateful. Seek protection from devil. No chance after death. Life on earth will then seem like a day. Seek forgiveness and mercy.
Guidelines are given on punishment of fornicators (adulterers) and their subsequent marriages. Guidelines given on accusation of chaste women, and own wives. Don't spread slander. Revelation that Aisha (May God be pleased with her) was innocent. To everyone will be what they earned of the sin. One must seek evidence before spreading information. Shaitan/Satan it is who spreads immorality and sin.
Give alms to those who are near of kin and needy and those who emigrated in the cause of God. God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Guidelines given on entering others' houses. Believing men and women are to lower their gaze and preserve chastity. Women are to display of their adornments only that which is apparent, to cover their bosoms with the head-coverings. Guidelines given on to whom they may reveal their adornments. To avoid attraction, they are not to stamp their feet (noisily). Believers should get those unmarried, married. If they are poor, God will enrich them. Those who can't marry, have to keep chaste till God gives them the means.
Guidelines are given on freeing slaves, bestowing them wealth, and saving them from prostitution.
Ponder over revelations and examples of those who passed away. God's radiance is in houses where God is exalted, remembered, glorified morning and evening by persons whom neither trading nor selling diverts from remembrance of God and from keeping up with prayer and paying alms. They fear Last Day so that God may reward them.
God bestows blessings without limits on whom God wills. Deeds of disbelievers are like a mirage in the desert. Every creature praises God in their own way, and God knows. Ponder over signs, and creations.
Disbelievers are evildoers. Believers will be winners. Disbelievers can't escape hell.
It is okay to eat together or apart. But salute one another with blessed greetings kindly. Believers must ask permission of the Messenger (PBUH) before leaving and gathering for common cause.
To God belongs everything, and to God shall all be returned. God knows everything.
God chose Muhammad (PBUH) as a warner, and revealed to him the Criterion of right and wrong. God has no son, no partner. Everything was created by God and everything has a measure. Disbelievers say Muhammad (PBUH) is lying and asks why he is just a human and also not wealthy.
Believers get Paradise. Deniers will be punished. All previous Prophets too were regular human beings. Disbelievers will regret on the Last Day.
Quran was revealed in stages to strengthen your heart. People of Musa/Moses (PBUH), people of Nuh/Noah (PBUH), tribe of Aad, Thamud, dwellers of Ar-Ras and others were punished for their denial. Ponder over signs and creations of God. Prophet never sought reward.
Be humble. Prostrate at night. Spend - not extravagantly though. Don't kill or commit adultery. God is Forgiving to those who repent sincerely.
To Muhammad (PBUH) it is said not to exhaust himself because of disbelievers. If God wanted, God could send more signs. Remember Musa/Moses (PBUH), when he was asked to go to Pharaoh, who asked for signs, and continued disbelief when signs were presented, and was hence extinguished.
Remember stories of the other Prophets who asked their people to believe in God and to obey them. Indeed the Quran is made simple; yet people deny until they regret during doom. No town was punished before sending them warners. Don't believe in any other gods. Muhammad (PBUH) was asked to warn his kinsfolk. God is All-Hearing, Knowing. Those who go astray follow poets.
Recite Quran, which is a guidance of right and wrong. It gives joyful tidings to believers who establish prayer, pay charity/alms and believe in Hereafter. The disbelievers believe their deeds are attractive. In fact, they will be punished. They disbelieve despite all the signs of God. Examples from lives of Prophets Musa/Moses (PBUH), Dawood/David (PBUH), Sulaiman/Solomon (PBUH), Salih (PBUH), and Lut/Lot (PBUH) are mentioned. Praise the only God and ascribe no partners to God. Reflect. Ponder. Believers will be rewarded.
Narration of the story of Musa/Moses (PBUH) and Pharaoh. The latter exalted himself, divided people and spread corruption. As a favor to those oppressed, God sent Musa/Moses (PBUH). Mention is made of the insightful stories of inspiration of his mother (by God), casting of him in to the river (when a baby), his retrieval by Pharaoh's wife, his return to mother for suckling (promise of God is true), wisdom and knowledge bestowed upon him as he grew, his fleeing after accidentally committing murder, his story at Madyan, trip back with his family, his conversation with God, miracles like staff and hand as proofs of his Prophethood, Pharaoh's dismissal of his signs, and of Pharaoh's arrogance and eventual doom.
Disbelievers will be punished; except those who repent and believe. God is All-Knowing. Be grateful for blessings. Qarun, who was arrogant, ungrateful and rebelled against Musa/Moses (PBUH), was punished. Rewards of Hereafter are more lasting. Stay steadfast, repel evil, spend in the way of God, and turn away from vain talk. Quran is a guidance. Those who disbelieve follow their own lusts. Don't ascribe partners to God, to Whom we shall all return.
Just because you say you are a believer, God will not save you from trials, which is to test who is sincere, and who pretend. The Last Day is coming. Whoever strives, strives for themselves, as God needs no help. Believers will get Paradise.
Show kindness to parents and obey them, unless they ask to believe something else other than the One God. Don't think it is a punishment if persecuted. Don't follow disbelievers. Bear patience. All provisions are from God.
Disbelievers will face severe punishment. Shaitan/Satan will make their deeds seem fair to them. Ponder over creations that are clear proofs. The likeness of those who disbelieve is like a spider that builds extremely weak house. Think of similes, signs and comprehend. Recite Quran and establish prayer - it will guard from indecency and evil. Remembrance of God is the best.
Don't argue with People of the Book (Jews and Christians) except in the best possible way. Muhammad (PBUH) had not read any of the previous scriptures, nor could he write. So, don't doubt his Prophethood. He was nothing but a plain warner. Quran is a reminder and mercy. We will be returned to God after death. Worldly life is but a past time and a game. Home of Hereafter is the true life. Don't invent lies against God. God is with those who do good.
God is in command. The prediction of Roman victory, mentioned in Quran, did happen (as a sign). God helps whom God pleases. God doesn't fail in promises. Don't be heedless of Hereafter and focus only on what is seen in this life. Travel, see signs and ponder.
Disbelievers will surely be punished. They will be in despair on the Last Hour. None can intercede for them. Believers will get Paradise. God is All Powerful. Resurrection is easy for God. There's no guidance for him whom God has sent astray.
So, be pure in faith. Don't alter God's creations. Believe in the One God. Establish worship. Don't split religion. Don't forget God, when blessed. Give to the near of kin, needy and traveler. Financing given for interest has no value. When given as charity it increases wealth manifold.
Life on earth will seem like an hour on Last Day. No excuses on that Day. Disbelievers will say miracles are lies. God has sealed their hearts. So, bear patience.
Quran is a wise book which is a guidance and mercy to the righteous - those who establish worship, pay poor-rate (Zakat/alms/charity), and firmly believe in the Hereafter. Disbelievers who mock at these will taste doom. Believers will get Paradise.
Ponder over the creations of God. Others who are ascribed as gods or partners to God haven't created anything.
Mention is made of Luqmaan, who was a pious person, who was given wisdom. He advised his son to be grateful for God’s blessings.
God is Self-Sufficient. Be kind to parents and obey them except if they coerce you to ascribe partners to God. God alone is the Creator of all things. Endure patiently, be virtuous, forbid evil. Don't be arrogant and proud. Be modest and keep voice low.
To God shall we all return. God can easily create and resurrect. Keep your duty to God. No one will avail each other on the Last Day.
The revelation is clearly from God - not an invention (made up by the Messenger). It is a guidance. God created heavens, earth and all in between, in six days. God is All-Powerful, Knowing, Mighty and Merciful. Be grateful. Resurrection is easy for God. God will forget you if you forget God. No chance after death. Blessed will be those who believe, prostrate, glorify God, are not arrogant, who forsake bed to call on God and spend from what God has given them. Believers and disbelievers are not equal. It is great wrong to turn away from signs. Why don't people of previous scriptures believe and agree? Time of Day of Judgement is only known to God.
Fear God, and don't obey disbelievers and hypocrites. God is All-Knowing. Trust God, who is sufficient for you as a guardian.
Adopted sons are to be known by their (original) father's names. If that's unknown, they are your brothers in faith and friends. No sin upon you if mistakes are made unintentionally. God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Muhammad's (PBUH) wives are like our mothers. Believing relatives are closer to you than other believers.
Even Prophets shall be questioned about their speech.
Disbelievers shall have doom. Be grateful for favors from God including protection from enemies, fear and rejection. Don't run away from responsibilities when fighting in the way of God.
Muhammad (PBUH) is a good example - he looks forward to God, the Last Day and remember God much. God guards believers. God is Mighty, All-Powerful.
Muhammad (PBUH) is asked to tell his wives that he will divorce them if they prefer life of this world and its adornments. Else, they can prepare for an immense reward. Double rewards and double punishments for Muhammad's (PBUH) wives. Guidelines are given for them - on speech, dressing and cleanliness.
Great reward is prepared by God for people who surrender (to the will of God), believe, obey, speak truth, are patient, charitable guard chastity and remember God. Whoever disobeys God & Messenger (PBUH) has gone astray.
It's okay to marry the divorced wife of an adopted son. Muhammad (PBUH) has privileges like other Prophets in the past. He is not the father of any man; but he is the Messenger, seal of Prophets (final), witness, bearer of good tidings and a warner. Guidelines are given to Muhammad (PBUH) on marriage.
Guidelines are given to the followers about visiting Muhammad's (PBUH) dwellings. Invoke blessings upon Muhammad (PBUH). Those who hurt God and Messenger (PBUH) are cursed.
Believing women are asked to draw their cloaks about them when they go out, so that they will be recognized and not harassed.
Knowledge of the Last Day is only with God. Don't spread rumors. Speak what is right.
Praise God, to Whom belongs everything in the heavens and earth. God knows everything. Not even an atom's weight or greater escapes God, but is clearly recorded. Those who believe and do good works will be rewarded. Disbelievers who mock will be punished.
God blessed Dawood/David (PBUH) and Sulaiman/Solomon (PBUH) with great powers as signs for mankind. Labor in thankfulness. Iblis/Satan has no authority over true believers, who believe in the Hereafter. No intercessor has any authority, nor will Messengers be accountable for others' sins, as they were only warners and bearers of good news.
Knowledge of the Last Day is with God alone. We can't postpone or hasten it. Privileged people - blessed in earth with wealth and children - think they won't be punished. But they are wrong. God gives to and reduces from whomsoever God wills. Those who do good and believe get rewards two-fold, and will dwell in secure mansions in Paradise. Angels will be asked whether they were worshipped - they'll say it were jinns. On Last Day, no one will benefit or hurt one another.
God is the originator of the heavens and the earth. God is All-Powerful. Remember God's favors. To God all shall return. Let not the life of this world delude you. Let not devil deceive you. Disbelievers will be punished. Believers will be forgiven and rewarded. God is All-Aware. All honor belongs to God. Consider the signs from creations. No use praying to other gods. We are needy. God is Self-Sufficient. He could easily replace us. Muhammad (PBUH) is a warner just like the Prophets sent for nations past.
Read Quran, establish prayer and spend. Travel to see consequences of disbelief. If God wanted to punish men according to misdeeds, nobody would have survived. But God has given time. When it comes, we will know God was observing.
The disbelievers disbelieve although the Quran is a book full of wisdom, released as a warning for those whose forefathers were not warned. Those who believe will be forgiven, and will get Paradise.
Reminder is given of a city extinguished after they were sent three Prophets. It is easy for God.
Consider signs such as dead earth, pairs of living beings, the day and night, sun and moon in orbit, the laden ship bearing offspring. Spend in the way of God. Believe in Last Day, Paradise and Hell. Quran isn't poetry. Don't associate partners to God. Ponder over the creations. You will return to God.
By the angels, the steadfast, and those who recite Quran, God is surely One. Stars are a protection against devil, so that they can't listen to the Higher Council. Ponder and take heed of God's creations. Disbelievers mock at Quran, Resurrection and Hereafter. They will be punished. No one will be of help on Last Day. Believers will be in Paradise, enjoying. In Hell, disbelievers eat from the tree of Zaqqum and drink boiling water.
Instances from lives of Prophets Nuh/Noah (PBUH), Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH), Ishaaq/Isaac (PBUH), Musa/Moses (PBUH), Harun/Aaron (PBUH), Ilyas/Elias (PBUH) Lut/Lot (PBUH) and Yunus/Jonah (PBUH) are mentioned.
Forging lies against God is wrong. God has no daughters and no relations with the jinns. God will help believers. Withdraw from disbelievers for a while. They will be punished. Praise be upon God, and peace be upon God's Messengers.
The disbelievers stay strong in rejection, seeking to hasten the promised punishment on them. Like Dawood/David (PBUH) - who was also a king/leader - repent and be just. The believers and disbelievers are not equal. Use Quran to ponder and reflect. Like Sulaiman/Solomon (PBUH), Ayyub/Job (PBUH), Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH), Ishaaq/Isaac (PBUH), Yaqub/Jacob (PBUH), Ismail/Ishmael (PBUH), Al-Yasa/Elisha (PBUH), and Dhul-Kifl (PBUH), [who were Prophets of God] seek forgiveness and stay steadfast.
For believers is Paradise. For disbelievers is Hell. They will blame their leaders - ultimately led by Iblis/Satan - who challenged God at the time of creation of Adam (PBUH) to lead humans astray, except God's sincere servants.
The source of Quran is God. Pure faith is for God alone. Do not disbelieve, lie or be ungrateful. God is Omnipotent, and has created everything. Ponder over God's creations. God is Independent if we are ungrateful; but is Pleased if we are thankful. Man is forgetful. Those engaged in devotion at night, prostrating, fearing the Hereafter, and hoping for mercy are not equal to disbelievers. They will be recompensed without limit. Those who repent and turn away from false deities will be rewarded.
Quran is to remember God, and to be guided. It has many similitudes so that we can reflect. Seek God’s mercy, and trust in God. Disbelievers would seek to ransom the dreadful doom on Last Day with all their possessions - but they'll be punished. Never think your blessings are through your own knowledge; that, too, is a trial. God increases and reduces provisions for whomsover God wills. Do not despair. God is Forgiving and Compassionate. Everything will be seized on the Day of Judgement. Every soul will be paid in full for what it did.
Quran is from God, the Almighty, the All-Knowing, the Forgiver, the Acceptor of repentance, the Severe in punishment, the Bountiful. There is no god but God. To God is our return.
Only disbelievers dispute regarding revelations. Look at the awful punishments that those who denied before faced. They shall dwell in Fire. The angels pray for forgiveness for those who repent and follow God's way. God shows you signs and sends sustenance/provisions. Therefore, pray to God, and make religion pure for God. Don't be distracted.
On the Day of Judgement, no intercessor can save disbelievers. Pharaoh, Haman and Qarun disbelieved revelations to Musa/Moses (PBUH). Have patience; the promise of God is true. Ask for forgiveness for sins and recite praise of God at nightfall and early hours. The creation of heavens and earth was greater than that of man. How little does man reflect? Punishment of Hell is severe.
Quran is a book of clear verses, from God, for a people who have knowledge - with glad tidings and warning. But many disbelieve. Muhammad (PBUH) is just a mortal to whom it was revealed that God is One, to take straight path, seek forgiveness, pay charity/alms (Zakat) and believe in the Hereafter. Those who follow get Paradise; others get Hell.
Ponder over God's creations. Learn from punishment of disbelievers like Aad and Thamud in the past. Disbelievers will be answerable. God is All-Knowing. Those who try to disrupt/interfere when Quran is recited will be punished in Hell - both from jinn and men.
Those with firm belief have no fear and grief; angels are their guardians in this world and next. Repel from evil. Don't prostrate to any of God's creations; but only to God. Those who distort revelations are known to God, and will be punished. Scripture given to Musa/Moses (PBUH) has been disputed. God is All-Knowing. Don't be ungrateful if ill touches. God is sufficient for you. Don't doubt about the meeting with God and Hereafter.
God informs Muhammad (PBUH) that he has been inspired just as the previous Prophets, that angels seek forgiveness for people, and that he isn't responsible for disbelievers' deeds.
Quran has been given as a guidance to warn about the Day of Gathering (Resurrection). God has created differences among people so that God may grant mercy only to the true believers. God has created the heavens and earth, and granted us many blessings as God pleases. God knows everything.
"Establish the religion and do not be divided in it," God told Nuh/Noah (PBUH), Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH), Musa/Moses (PBUH), and Isa/Jesus (PBUH). Same applies to Muhammad (PBUH). Disbelievers who associate others with God will be punished.
Quran is from God. The Hour (Last Day) may be near. God is Gracious, Mighty. Focus on the Hereafter. Muhammad (PBUH) doesn't seek wages, nor has he invented some lies. Paradise is for those who believe, who shun big sins, who forgive when enraged, who establish worship, who conduct affairs by mutual consultation, who spend in the way of God, and who defend themselves when oppressed. God is All-Powerful.
Quran was revealed in Arabic so that people may understand. It is in the Mother Book - which is with God - full of wisdom. Quran is a mercy, to guide.
Disbelievers mock, and continue to follow their forefathers. Consider the destruction of those in the past who were more formidable. Consider the power and creations of God. Don't associate anything/anybody with God. Don't think angels are females. God provides sustenance and raised some above others so that they may serve others - else mankind would have united in disbelief.
Believers will get Paradise; disbelievers get Hell. On the Day of Judgement, all are answerable individually. Don't plan against God. God shall plan against you. Nobody can intercede for you on the Day of Judgement. Leave disbelievers for a while. God will punish them.
God revealed Quran on a blessed night, as a clear book of warning. God decrees command on that night. God is the sole Creator - all-hearing, all-knowing, all-capable - Giver of life and death.
Disbelievers will regret on the Last Day and seek forgiveness. But they won't be forgiven then. They had defied the Messengers before. Some disbelievers were punished, leaving behind all their wealth and all that gave them delight. They hadn't believed in life after the first death.
Nobody will avail each other on the Last Day. Disbelievers will be taken to the Hell that they had denied. Believers will live in Paradise forever - the supreme triumph. Read the simple Quran for easy understanding.
God revealed Quran. There are signs for believers in heavens and earth. Woe unto those who hear revelations but don't accept due to pride - they'll get a painful punishment. Neither their earnings nor those that they used to believe in will avail them. Quran is a guidance.
Forgive (leave) the disbelievers, for God will judge and punish them. God set you a clear path of faith; so follow it. God is the Friend of those who ward off evil. Every soul will be recompensed for what it has earned. Disbelievers can only guess about what happens after death. They will be punished in Hell-Fire.
The Quran is revelation from God, the Almighty, the All-Wise, Who created heavens and earth with truth, for an appointed term. But disbelievers turn away, pray to those who don't hear; who will be their enemies on the Day of Judgement. They deny the truth saying it is magic or lies. God is sufficient as a witness between Muhammad (PBUH) and them. He is only a warner. The Book of Musa/Moses (PBUH) was also a guide and mercy; Quran confirms it in Arabic, to warn wrongdoers and bring good news to believers, for whom there shall be no fear or grief.
Kindness to parents is prescribed to believers. Those who are grateful for blessings and parents, do good works, pray for upright descendants, repent and submit to God, God accepts best of what they do, and overlook their faults - they will get Paradise.
Disbelievers, such as Aad and others, will be punished by God. Their punishments are also God's signs.
God directed some from the jinn to listen to Quran from Muhammad (PBUH) attentively, and they later went back to their kind to warn them. Bear patience with disbelievers, and don't seek to hasten doom for them. When they see Hell-fire, they will think they had stayed on earth only for an hour.
Those who disbelieve and turn people away from God, their good deeds will go astray. Those who believe, do goods works, and follow revelations to Muhammad (PBUH), God will forgive their sins and rectify their affairs.
When at war with disbelievers, attack them, hold on to their captives, and then either release or ransom them. God could have punished directly. Rather God tries some of us by means of others. If you help God, God will help you and make your foothold firm.
Travel in land and see plight of disbelievers of past. Believers will get Paradise. They are not the same as those who disbelieve. Hypocrites' hearts have been sealed, and they follow their own lusts. Last Day will come suddenly.
Woe to those believers who don't like to fight (in the way of God), with Muhammad (PBUH). They are tempted by Shaitan/Satan and are filled with false hopes. One cannot obey only in some matters (of faith) and leave the rest. God knows hypocrites. God will try us until those who strive hard (in God's way) and the steadfast are known.
Disbelievers don't hurt God. God will make their actions fruitless. Obey God, and obey Muhammad (PBUH). Don't call for peace in cowardice; you shall have upper hand. God is with you.
Life of this world is but a sport and diversion. Spend in the way of God; don't be stingy. God can easily replace you.
God has given you a clear victory so that God may forgive you of sins (past and future), may perfect favor upon you, may guide you on straight path, and may help you with mighty help. God it is Who sends serenity into the hearts of the believers. They will get Paradise - the supreme triumph. Hypocrites and idolaters will be punished.
Muhammad (PBUH) was sent by God as bearer of good tidings and a warner. Believe and praise God morning and evening. Don't cling on to your possessions and households, not fighting in the cause of God. Neither the spoils nor Paradise such will get. No blame on blind, lame or sick.
God granted victory to Muhammad (PBUH) and believers upon return to the Sacred Mosque (in Makkah). God it is Who sent the Messenger (PBUH) with guidance and true religion so that God may cause it to prevail over all religions.
The believers are hard to disbelievers and merciful among themselves. They prostrate seeking God's bounty and acceptance; on their foreheads are marks from prostration. God has promised them - who believe and do good - forgiveness and an immense reward.
Believers are to be respectful towards God and Muhammad (PBUH). Calling out to someone loudly while they are going to come out to you (from their home) is bad. Wait patiently - don't raise voice.
If a person of evil character brings information, verify it, lest you do harm to some people and later repent. Obey Messenger (PBUH).
Make peace between fighting believers - be just. Do not mock or defame one another. Avoid too much suspicion. Don't spy nor backbite.
Diversity among people - men, women, nations, tribes - made to identify one another. Noblest of you is the most God-fearing. Don't just believe; but submit. God will reward those who obey God and Messenger (PBUH). Surely, God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Strive with wealth and lives (efforts) for the cause of God. Don't boast faith. Belief is a favor of guidance to you, rather than your favor to God. God is All-Knowing, All-Seeing.
Despite God's clear creations - which should provide insight and reminder - people disbelieve. Resurrection of dead is comparable to quickening of dead land. God has punished disbelievers in the past. God was not wearied by the first creation. God knows everything about us.
Death will come. Last Day will come. Everyone will be answerable, and granted Hell or Paradise. More powerful generations have been destroyed in the past. God created everything. Therefore, praise God at prescribed times. To God is the return. Muhammad (PBUH) and Quran are only to warn.
The Day of Judgement will surely befall, and the disbelievers will be punished. The believers will be granted Paradise - those who used to sleep little at night, sought forgiveness at dawn, and shared wealth with those deprived. Ponder over the signs on earth and within selves. Learn from the stories of Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH), Lut/Lot (PBUH), Musa/Moses (PBUH), Hud (PBUH), Salih (PBUH, and Nuh/Noah (PBUH). Believe in the One God. Muhammad (PBUH) is asked to ignore the disbelievers. God created jinn and mankind only to worship God. God gives livelihood, and seeks nothing else but worship.
Doom as promised by God will come to pass. None can ward it off. Rejecters who indulge in vain talk will be roughly thrust in to Hell-fire. Believers will get gardens of Paradise. If children follow in faith, they will be together with their believing parents there.
Muhammad (PBUH) is neither soothsayer nor madman. Disbelievers are challenged to bring a book like the Quran. Let the other gods they believe in, produce a clear authority. Even if they (disbelievers) were shown heaven, they wouldn't believe. Let them wait until they die, when none of their plotting will help. So, wait patiently, and praise God day and night.
There is no doubt about Quran and the Mi'raaj [the miraculous night journey of Muhammad (PBUH)]. There are no intercessors between God and you. Turn away from disbelievers, and do good. God shall forgive your small mistakes and reward you in Hereafter.
Muhammad (PBUH) showed the moon split as requested. 'Continuous sorcery,' the disbelievers said. Warnings are of no avail to them. So, turn away. On the Last Day, they will have severe punishment.
People of Nuh/Noah (PBUH), Saleh (PBUH), and Lut/Lot (PBUH) were all punished for rejecting the warnings. Remember the previous generations destroyed. For believers is Paradise. Quran is made easy to understand and remember. Pay heed.
God, the All-Merciful, taught Quran. God created man and taught us to speak. God has created everything with a balance that shouldn't be transgressed by us. In trade, we have to give full weight with justice, and not decrease the scale.
Ponder over the creations of God. So, which of God's blessings will you deny? Everything will pass away, but God will be there forever. God is called upon by all in heavens and earth, and everyday God is engaged in some matter. No other hosts are to be worshipped - those who can't penetrate the confines created by God.
Disbelievers will be punished. On Last Day, neither jinn nor mankind will be asked about their sins. The guilty will be known by their marks and put to hell. For the believers is Paradise; with two levels - higher one for the most fearful of God.
Praise God, the Possessor of Majesty and Benevolence.
On the Day of Judgement, there shall be three types of people - those in (normal) Paradise, those in Hell and those in a special Paradise close to God; third being for the foremost. God created us in the first place. So it's easy for God to resurrect. Praise God for creations including those like cultivation, water, and fire that we use. The Quran is God's revelation. A man can't even make the soul return to a dying man.
Everything glorifies God. God has power over all things. God knows everything. To God belongs everything, and to God are all returned. Believe in God and the Messenger, and spend (from what you have been given) and get rewarded.
Revelations were sent as a mercy to remind. God inherits everything. Charity is like loan to God, and God will multiply it. Believers will get Paradise. Hypocrites, who fell to temptations, wavered, doubted, deluded by vain hopes, will be punished.
Be submissive to remembrance of God and for the truth revealed. Life of this world is but a sport and a diversion - stuff of illusion.
God doesn't love arrogant boasters, who are stingy and enjoin stinginess on others. Learn from clear proofs sent through Messengers, and ponder over creations. Religious vows taken by monks were not ordained by God. Be mindful of God. God will forgive. God possesses immense bounty.
God hears the words of the lady who pleads to Muhammad (PBUH) about her husband. God hears both sides. God is All-Hearing, All-Seeing. Guidelines are given about Zihar - when husband insults wife pronouncing that she is like a prohibited female for him.
God is All-Forgiving, All-Merciful. Those who disobey and disbelieve will be accountable before God, and will be punished. No secrets from God. Don't conspire of sin, wrongdoing and disobedience to Muhammad (PBUH). Consult together for the sake of virtue, piety and fear of God - to whom we shall all return.
Guidelines given about gatherings with Muhammad (PBUH). God is All-Aware. Give alms before the secret counsel with Muhammad (PBUH).
Those who take as friends those whom God is angry with, shall be punished; they are hypocrites. Their wealth and children will not avail them against God. Those who oppose God and Messenger (PBUH) will be among the lowest of the low. Those who don't befriend such people will be strengthened with a Spirit from God, and will get Paradise. They are from the party of God and the only successful ones.
All that is in the heavens and earth glorify God, the Almighty, All-Wise. God can create fear in disbelievers in a way we think impossible. Learn a lesson from their fate [Banu Nadir]. If it was not for the fear in this world, God would have punished them in the Hereafter.
God gives dominion to Muhammad (PBUH) over whom God wills. Guidelines are given on distribution of war booty. Those who are saved from greed of their souls are the ones who are successful.
Hypocrites will neither be helpful to believers nor disbelievers. They are those who don't understand; who don't have sense. They will get painful punishment. They are like Iblis/Satan who disowns after promoting to do evil.
Believers are to observe their duty to God. They will be successful - get Paradise. If the Quran was revealed to a mountain, it would have shattered due to fear of God. Glorify God, and don't ascribe partners to God. God it is Who is All-Powerful.
Don't befriend disbelievers. God is All-Knowing. They will harm you when they have the advantage, and they wait for you to disbelieve.
Ties of kinship and children will not avail on the Day of Resurrection. There's a good model for us in Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH). Even he can't save his father (who was an idolater) from punishment.
God loves those who deal justly.
Guidelines given on believing women who have come as fugitives from among disbelievers.
All that is in the heavens and earth glorify God - the Almighty, All-Wise. Don't say what you don't do. God hates this. God loves those who strives for God's cause.
Disbelievers rejected Musa/Moses (PBUH). Isa/Jesus (PBUH) was later sent confirming Torah and bringing good news of a future Messenger called Ahmad [same as Mohammad (PBUH)]. Yet, when he came, disbelievers rejected.
Nobody does greater wrong than invent a lie against God. God will not guide them.
Strive for the cause of God with your wealth and your lives. This is better for you, to get Paradise - the supreme triumph - and other blessings which you desire. Proclaim good news to the believers.
All that is in the heavens and earth glorify God - the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One, Almighty, All-Wise. God sent among unlettered people a Messenger of their own [Muhammad (PBUH)], with Revelations to purify them; to teach them the Book and the Wisdom. That is a bounty from God.
Those who failed to bear the Torah are like asses carrying books. Those who deny Revelations are wretched. God doesn't guide them. Jews are challenged to long for death if they are truthful; but they won’t.
On Friday, leave trading and hasten towards the remembrance of God. When prayer ends, then disperse, seek God's bounties, and remember God, so that you may be successful.
Hypocrites are very easily known to God. They make people turn away from religion. They believed and disbelieved, so their hearts are sealed. Be on guard against them since they will please you by looks and speech. They are an enemy. God will not forgive them; so no use asking for their forgiveness. Although treasures of heavens and earth belong to God, they ask not to spend on the believers.
Wealth and children must not distract us from God's remembrance. Spend from that which is given to you. All will be returned to God. God is Aware of what we do.
All that is in the heavens and earth glorify God. God created everything. To God belongs everything and to God shall all be returned. God is All-Knowing, including what is in your minds.
Learn from stories of people who were punished in the past, who were disbelievers, despite clear proofs sent with Prophets (PBUH). Believe in the Revelations. On the Day of Gathering, God will assign Paradise and Hell, based on your deeds. Paradise is the Supreme achievement.
No calamity befalls save with God's leave. Believers are guided. Obey God and Messenger (PBUH) who is only a plain warner. Let believers put their trust in God.
Among wives and children may be enemies for yourself, so beware. If you excuse - overlook their faults and pardon - know that God is also All-Forgiving, All-Merciful. They are only a trial.
With God is an immense reward. Whoever is saved from his own greed is successful. If you give loan to God (charity) with sincere intent, God will multiply it, and forgive your sins.
Guidelines are given to believers regarding divorce. For those who fear God, God gives relief. God is sufficient for them.
God brings about the decrees to pass. God has set a measure for all things. If one keeps his/her duty to God, by following rules, God will cleanse of evil-deeds, and magnify reward. Spend of that which God has given - big or small. God only asks for it to be in proportion to provisions given. After hardship, God will grant ease.
Those who revolt against God have been punished in the past. Disbelievers will be punished.
Muhammad (PBUH) recites the revelations of God, to bring forth those who believe and do good works, from darkness to light. Such will get Paradise.
God it is Who created everything. God releases commandments. God is capable of everything. God encompasses all things with God's Knowledge.
Warning given to Muhammad's (PBUH) wives against divulging his secrets. God and angels were his direct protectors/helpers. God can easily replace them with better wives.
Repent, and save self from fire of hell. Strive against disbelievers and hypocrites and be stern with them.
Despite being wives of Prophets, the wives of Nuh/Noah (PBUH) and Lut/Lot (PBUH), were punished for disbelief. But the wife of Pharoah, and Mariam/Mary (PBUH) were blessed.
In God's hand is the kingdom - God is Powerful over everything - God created life and death to test us - which of us is best in conduct. God is Almighty, All-Forgiving. God created the seven heavens with no imperfection. In lower heavens are lamps to strike the Satans/devils. For those who disbelieve is Hell-fire.
Messengers came with warnings. Those who believe in secret, will be forgiven and get reward. God knows our hearts. Deniers have been punished in the past.
God gives provisions. Believers and disbelievers are not equal. Knowledge of when is the Last Day is only with God. When it comes, disbelievers will be in horror. God is Merciful, and only God can support.
Believers are promised Paradise. Don't be influenced by disbelievers. They are challenged to bring their own scripture. Don’t oppress. Leave it to God to punish them. No rewards sought by Muhammad (PBUH). He was chosen by God. Quran is a reminder to man.
Do you know what is the reality? Disbelievers in the past were punished - like Aad, Thamud, Pharaoh, people of Nuh/Noah (PBUH) - so that it can be a reminder. When the trumpet will be sounded once - when the earth and mountains will be crushed - that Day will the Event befall (Last Day). That Day, will we be presented before God; no secrets can be hidden.
If one receives his record in right hand, he will get Paradise. But the opposite will get Hell.
Muhammad (PBUH) is not a poet. So, pay attention to God's revelations and ponder. If he had lied, God would have seized him, and no one could have stopped that. Glorify God.
Disbelievers ask for the inevitable doom, which will come from God - Lord of the Ascending stairways that angels and the Spirit use to ascend to God in a day - span of 50,000 days. Be patient. No ransom possible for the sinner on Last Day. Surely man has faint heart, except those constant in prayers, paying alms, believing in Last Day, preserving chastity, keeping their promises, firm in testimony and attentive to prayer. Such get Paradise. Others get Hell. Leave them in vain talk and amusements.
Nuh/Noah (PBUH) was a Prophet sent to warn his people, asking to serve God, keep duty to God and to obey him so that God may forgive them. Despite calling them for 950 years, many persisted in their rejection. He explained the signs in God's creations, but they continued their belief in other gods. Nuh/Noah (PBUH) asked God to leave none of the disbelievers on earth, and soon came their punishment.
A group of jinn listened to the Quran, and confirmed that they believed in it, and that they ascribe no partner, wife or son to God, and also that they thought no one would lie about God. They said they know they can't escape from God, and that whoever believes in God, he fears neither loss nor oppression. God will bless those on the right path and punish the idolaters who ascribe partners to God.
Muhammad (PBUH) is asked to say that he controls neither harm nor benefit, that his duty is to convey God's message. Last Day will come at a time known only to God. God speaks only to messengers chosen and watches over them. God keeps count of all things.
Spend a good part of the night reciting Quran - when the mind is clearest. God is your protector. Leave disbelievers to God. Be patient with them. They will be granted Hell, like Pharaoh [from the time of Musa/Moses (PBUH)].
No protection from the Last/Judgement Day. This (Quran) is a reminder. Establish prayer, give alms, do good. Be recompensed. God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Muhammad (PBUH) was asked to rise and warn; to magnify God, to stay purified, and to not be driven by worldly gains. Last Day will be tough for disbelievers. They will be punished by God. Everyone is answerable to God. Those who don't pray, don't give alms, engage in vain disputes and deny Judgement Day will get Hell. No intercessors/mediators for them. Fear God. God forgives.
Those who disbelieve in the Day of Judgement/Resurrection and lead an ignorant life, must know that this is easy for God, Who created them in the first place from just a drop of semen. No escape and respite on that Day. Believers' faces will be happy and radiant. Don't prioritize this world over the Hereafter. For God, it is easy to bring back dead to life.
Hasn't there been a time when man was a thing, not to even be mentioned? God created man from semen to test him. God makes him hear and see. God has shown the way, whether he now be grateful or not.
Indeed for disbelievers is hell, and believers shall get Paradise. Believers fulfil their vow, fear Last Day, give charity, seeking rewards from God.
It is God Who revealed Quran by degrees. So, submit patiently to God's commands, and don't obey disbelievers. Remember God, morning and evening. Worship and glorify God during a large part of night. God is All-Powerful, All-Knowing, All-Wise.
Surely the promised will befall on the Day of Judgement/Resurrection - when those who rejected (belief) will be punished like the former communities. This is easy for God who created man from a despised fluid and arranged a secure lodging (in womb) for a fixed term. All will be assembled on that Day, and sent to Hell or Paradise.
Is it about the Last Day that disbelievers disagree? There is no doubt about it. They will come to know. God has created the entire earth, heavens, and other signs. Surely, time of Day of Decision is fixed. Then, Hell shall be the resort for the insolent - the ones who denied the Day and revelations.
Everything is recorded in a Book. Those who fear God will get Paradise that Day. So, seek recourse to God. Disbelievers will regret.
The Last Day will come. Disbelievers question resurrection. Surely, they will be awakened.
Despite Musa/Moses (PBUH) showing great signs, Pharaoh denied, and he was punished. For God who created all of the heavens, resurrection is simple. Those who rejected, and preferred life of this world will get Hell. Believers will get Paradise. Timing of the Last Day is only known to God. That Day, life on earth will seem just as an evening or its morning. Muhammad (PBUH) is only a warner.
Don't ignore anyone who shows even a small interest in God. Those who don't need guidance/reminder will be punished, and it is not the fault [of Muhammad (PBUH)] if they are not purified. They are ungrateful even after God created them just a drop of semen, and gave provisions and food. On the Last Day, it will be every man for himself. On that Day, believers will rejoice.
The soul will be asked about its deeds on the Last Day, after resurrection. Muhammad (PBUH) isn't mad. This (Quran) is a reminder to man. You will not be rightly guided unless God wills. God is the Lord of all creations.
When the Last Day comes, every soul will be answerable. What deceived you about your God - the One who created you and blessed you? Don't deny the Doom. The pious will be in bliss, and the wicked will be in Hell. On that Day, no soul can support one another. God will have absolute command on that Day.
Woe to defrauders - who take in full, but give less, causing loss. Their deeds are being recorded for the Last Day. Deniers of the Last Day and revelations will be punished. Deeds of the righteous are also recorded. They shall dwell in bliss in Hereafter. Disbelievers mock at believers now. In Hereafter, it is the other way around.
On the Last Day, the heavens and earth will be split up/spread out, and will listen to the command of God. Man will meet God that Day. Whoever is given account in right hand will get Paradise. The others will be punished - for they lived sunk in pleasure, thinking never will there be a return after death.
Don't be ignorant about the Quran. God is All-Knowing. For those who believe and do good works, their rewards will never be cut off.
Those who persecute believers, and do not repent will be punished severely in Hell, while believers will be granted Paradise. Pharaoh and the people of Thamud - disbelievers in denial - were surrounded by God. Surely, this is Quran in a preserved Tablet.
Every soul has a guardian over it. Consider how man was created just from a gushing fluid. (Similarly) God is indeed able to return man to life after death. Every thought will be uncovered and there will be no helper. The Quran is a decisive word - no flippant jest (joke). Let the disbelievers plan against Muhammad (PBUH), and God will plan against them. Leave them.
Praise be to God, Who created, fashioned, decreed and guided. Recite Quran to not forget. Disbelievers will be punished. Believers who remember and pray will prosper. Hereafter is much better and more lasting. These have been in previous scriptures too; including the ones revealed to Ibrahim/Abraham (PBUH) and Musa/Moses (PBUH).
On the Day of Judgement, disbelievers will be punished and the believers will get Paradise. Ponder over signs of God. Muhammad (PBUH) is only a warner. To God is our return, and we shall be held to account.
Learn from God's signs. Consider those who were punished before - Aad, Irum, Thamood and Pharoah. They were defiant and corrupt, and not thankful to God. Disbelievers are not charitable. They devour inheritance and love riches. On the Last Day, they will regret, and God will punish them. Believers will be at peace, and will enter Paradise.
Man is powerless no matter how wealthy he is. God created and blessed man, and guided about good and evil. Attempt the steep ascent - to free slaves, to feed the hungry, orphans, relatives, needy and desperate, to urge others to persevere and to show compassion. Those who succeed at this will be rewarded, unlike the others who will be punished.
Consider the signs of God - the sun, moon, day, night, heaven, earth and soul. The one who purifies soul is successful. Those who corrupt it, will be ruined, like the people of Saleh (PBUH), who hurt God's sign - the she-camel.
We strive towards diverse goals. For those who are charitable, who believe and do good, God will grant ease. The others will have hardships. Wealth will not rescue one from Hell.
The Hereafter is much better than present life. Don't be depressed. Remember God's blessings. Be kind and charitable. Proclaim God's blessings.
Hardship is followed by ease. So, when free, worship and devote to God.
God created man in the best mould, and cast him down as lowest of low, except those who believe and do good works, who will get a never-ending reward.
Read. Don't be ignorant and arrogant. All of us will return to God. So, believe and prostrate.
Quran was revealed on the Night of Power - which is better than a thousand months. The angels descend that night. Therein there are peace and blessings till dawn. [Reference made to a night in the Islamic calendar month of Ramadan]
The disbelievers from among People of the Book and idolaters wanted clear proof - a Messenger from God coming with revelations. When he came, commanding to worship God alone, keeping faith purely for God, being upright, to keep up prayer and give alms, they objected. They shall be in Hell. Those who believe and do good works are the best of creatures. They will be in Paradise. God will be pleased with them.
The earth will shake violently on the Last Day. It will relate all it knows that day, as per God's command. Everyone will be answerable on that day. The good will be rewarded. The bad will be punished.
Man is ungrateful to God due to obsession with passion for wealth. When brought back forth on Last Day, God will have perfect knowledge about them.
Reminder is given about the Last Day, after which, believers will have a pleasant life, and disbelievers will be punished in a raging fire.
Don't get distracted with worldly gain. Then, you will be sent to Hell and asked about your indulgences.
Man is in loss; except those who believe, do good and spread true faith and patience.
Woe onto every scandal monger, fault-finder; who amasses wealth and keeps counting it, thinking that it will make them immortal. Surely, they will be punished in Hell - filled with towering columns of fire.
God can crush the strong with the weak, like the crushed master of the elephant, just using tiny birds. [Reference made to the victory during an attack against Makkah in the year that Muhammad (PBUH) was born.]
The Quraysh tribe is asked to worship God, for protecting them from hunger and giving security to them during their summer and winter journeys.
The one who denies Day of Judgement is one who has no feelings for orphans and destitute. Woe on to believers unmindful of prayer; those who only show, and refuse help to others.
You have been blessed. So, worship God and sacrifice. The disbelievers will be cut off.
Say to disbelievers - to you your faith, and to me, my faith.
When victory has come with the help of God, and you see people embracing God's faith in multitudes, celebrate, praise God and seek forgiveness. God is Merciful.
Abu Lahab - chief of the Hashim clan of Quraysh, and the paternal uncle of Muhammad PBUH (who opposed him vehemently and harmed believers) will be granted Hell. Nothing will help him. His wife, who used to help/agree with him, will also be punished.
Proclaim the oneness of God, Who was neither born nor gives birth. Nothing is comparable to God.
Seek protection from mischiefs of all that God has created, including the enviers.
Seek protection from all the evil caused by jinn and mankind.

The Quran is clearly revelation from the One God, Who created all. The word Quran means recitation. Read about its compilation here - Islamweb.net. ExploreQuran.org displays Quran chapters in both, the actual compilation order (in printed copies), as well as a revelation order which might provide a different approach for exploring the Holy Quran.
