1 Truth of Revelation

الۤمۤرۚ تِلۡكَ ءَایَـٰتُ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِۗ وَٱلَّذِیۤ أُنزِلَ إِلَیۡكَ مِن رَّبِّكَ ٱلۡحَقُّ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا یُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝١

Bakhtiari Nejad

A.L.M.R. (Alif. Lam. Mim. Ra.) These are the verses of the book. And what was sent down to you from your Lord is the truth, but most people do not believe.

alif-lam-meem-ra til'ka āyātu l-kitābi wa-alladhī unzila ilayka min rabbika l-ḥaqu walākinna akthara l-nāsi lā yu'minūn

ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِی رَفَعَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ بِغَیۡرِ عَمَدࣲ تَرَوۡنَهَاۖ ثُمَّ ٱسۡتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلۡعَرۡشِۖ وَسَخَّرَ ٱلشَّمۡسَ وَٱلۡقَمَرَۖ كُلࣱّ یَجۡرِی لِأَجَلࣲ مُّسَمࣰّىۚ یُدَبِّرُ ٱلۡأَمۡرَ یُفَصِّلُ ٱلۡءَایَـٰتِ لَعَلَّكُم بِلِقَاۤءِ رَبِّكُمۡ تُوقِنُونَ ۝٢

Bakhtiari Nejad

God is the One Who raised the skies without any pillars that you see, then He reigned over the dominion, and He controlled the sun and the moon, each running (its course) in a finite period. He directs the affairs; He explains the verses (signs) so that you may be certain of meeting your Lord.

Bakhtiari Nejad

And He is the One Who spread out the earth and put mountains and rivers in it, and He made two kinds of every fruit (male and female) in it, He covers the night over the day. Indeed, there are signs in that for people who think.

Bakhtiari Nejad

And on the earth, there are adjacent pieces and gardens of grapes and plantation and date palms from the same root and not from the same root watered with the same water, and We make some of them preferable to eat than the others. Indeed, there are signs in that for people who understand.

Bakhtiari Nejad

And if you are surprised, then their saying is astonishing: “Will we be created again when we turn into dust?” They are those who disbelieved in their Lord, and they will have shackles around their necks, and they will be inhabitants of the fire, remaining in it forever.

Bakhtiari Nejad

They ask you to rush with the bad before the good while similar examples (of punishment) have passed before them. And your Lord certainly has forgiveness for people about their wrongdoing, and indeed your Lord is severe in punishment.

wayastaʿjilūnaka bil-sayi-ati qabla l-ḥasanati waqad khalat min qablihimu l-mathulātu wa-inna rabbaka ladhū maghfiratin lilnnāsi ʿalā ẓul'mihim wa-inna rabbaka lashadīdu l-ʿiqāb

Bakhtiari Nejad

Those who disbelieve say: “Why a miracle (sign) was not sent down to him from his Lord?” You are only a warner. And for every group there is a guide.

ٱللَّهُ یَعۡلَمُ مَا تَحۡمِلُ كُلُّ أُنثَىٰ وَمَا تَغِیضُ ٱلۡأَرۡحَامُ وَمَا تَزۡدَادُۚ وَكُلُّ شَیۡءٍ عِندَهُۥ بِمِقۡدَارٍ ۝٨

Bakhtiari Nejad

God knows what every female carries (during pregnancy), and how much the wombs fall short or exceed (in length or in number), and everything with Him is in proper measures.

al-lahu yaʿlamu mā taḥmilu kullu unthā wamā taghīḍu l-arḥāmu wamā tazdādu wakullu shayin ʿindahu bimiq'dāri

عَـٰلِمُ ٱلۡغَیۡبِ وَٱلشَّهَـٰدَةِ ٱلۡكَبِیرُ ٱلۡمُتَعَالِ ۝٩

Bakhtiari Nejad

(God is) knower of the unseen and the visible, the greatest and the highest.

sawāon minkum man asarra l-qawla waman jahara bihi waman huwa mus'takhfin bi-al-layli wasāribun bil-nahār

سَوَاۤءࣱ مِّنكُم مَّنۡ أَسَرَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلَ وَمَن جَهَرَ بِهِۦ وَمَنۡ هُوَ مُسۡتَخۡفِۭ بِٱلَّیۡلِ وَسَارِبُۢ بِٱلنَّهَارِ ۝١٠

Bakhtiari Nejad

It is the same whether any of you hides the word or anyone says it loud, or whether anyone hides in the night or goes about in the day.

Sawaon minkum man asarra alqawla waman jahara bihi waman huwa mustakhfin biallayli wasaribun bialnnahari

لَهُۥ مُعَقِّبَـٰتࣱ مِّنۢ بَیۡنِ یَدَیۡهِ وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِۦ یَحۡفَظُونَهُۥ مِنۡ أَمۡرِ ٱللَّهِۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یُغَیِّرُ مَا بِقَوۡمٍ حَتَّىٰ یُغَیِّرُوا۟ مَا بِأَنفُسِهِمۡۗ وَإِذَاۤ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ بِقَوۡمࣲ سُوۤءࣰا فَلَا مَرَدَّ لَهُۥۚ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن دُونِهِۦ مِن وَالٍ ۝١١

Bakhtiari Nejad

For each (person) there are followers in front of him and behind him which observe him by God’s command. Indeed, God does not change condition of any people until they change what is in themselves. And when God wants something bad for a people, there is no turning it away and they have no protector besides Him.

Bakhtiari Nejad

He is the One Who shows you the lightning, a fear and a hope, and He produces the heavy clouds.

وَیُسَبِّحُ ٱلرَّعۡدُ بِحَمۡدِهِۦ وَٱلۡمَلَـٰۤىِٕكَةُ مِنۡ خِیفَتِهِۦ وَیُرۡسِلُ ٱلصَّوَ ٰعِقَ فَیُصِیبُ بِهَا مَن یَشَاۤءُ وَهُمۡ یُجَـٰدِلُونَ فِی ٱللَّهِ وَهُوَ شَدِیدُ ٱلۡمِحَالِ ۝١٣

Bakhtiari Nejad

And the thunder glorifies Him with His praise, and so do angels from His fear. And He sends lightning, and He strikes anyone He wants with it, and yet they argue about God, and He is severe in punishment.

Bakhtiari Nejad

The true calling belongs to Him, and those whom they call on other than Him do not answer them at all, except like someone who stretches his hands toward the water to reach his mouth, but it does not reach it. And the call of the disbelievers is only in error (and it is useless).

Bakhtiari Nejad

Everyone in the skies and on the earth shows humbleness to God, willingly or unwillingly, and so do their shadows in the mornings and the afternoons.

Bakhtiari Nejad

Say: “Who is the Lord of the skies and the earth?” Say: “God.” Say: “Did you take protectors besides God who have no power to benefit or to harm themselves?” Say: “Are the blind and the one who sees equal, or are the darkness and the light equal? Or did they make partners for God that created as He created, and it seemed like the creation to them?” Say: “God is the creator of everything, and He is the One, the supreme (and dominant).”

Bakhtiari Nejad

He sends down water (rain) from the sky and it flows in the river valleys (riverbeds) according to their measure, then the current carries the foam that is built up (on its surface). And a similar foam (builds up) from what they melt in the fire to make ornaments or utensils. That is how God gives example of (compares) truth and falsehood. As for the foam, it goes away uselessly, but what benefits people stays on the earth. This is how God gives the examples.

Bakhtiari Nejad

For those who answer their Lord is the good (reward), while those who do not answer Him, if they had all that is on the earth and the like of it with that, they would have offered it as compensation. They have the bad account, and their housing will be hell, a miserable resting place.

Bakhtiari Nejad

Is someone who knows what is sent down to you from your Lord is the truth like someone who is blind? Only people of understanding take notice.

Bakhtiari Nejad

As such We sent you to a group that other groups before it had passed away, so that you read to them what We revealed to you while they disbelieve in the beneficent. Say: “He is my Lord, there is no god except Him, I put my trust in Him, and my return is to Him.”

وَلَوۡ أَنَّ قُرۡءَانࣰا سُیِّرَتۡ بِهِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ أَوۡ قُطِّعَتۡ بِهِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ أَوۡ كُلِّمَ بِهِ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰۗ بَل لِّلَّهِ ٱلۡأَمۡرُ جَمِیعًاۗ أَفَلَمۡ یَا۟یۡءَسِ ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوۤا۟ أَن لَّوۡ یَشَاۤءُ ٱللَّهُ لَهَدَى ٱلنَّاسَ جَمِیعࣰاۗ وَلَا یَزَالُ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ تُصِیبُهُم بِمَا صَنَعُوا۟ قَارِعَةٌ أَوۡ تَحُلُّ قَرِیبࣰا مِّن دَارِهِمۡ حَتَّىٰ یَأۡتِیَ وَعۡدُ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یُخۡلِفُ ٱلۡمِیعَادَ ۝٣١

Bakhtiari Nejad

If there was a Quran that the mountains were moved by it, or the earth was torn into pieces by it or the dead were made to speak by it (they still would not believe in it). No, but all affairs (and commands) belong to God. Do those who believe not give up hope (and realize) that if God wants, He will guide all the people? And those who disbelieve, catastrophe will not stop to happen to them or to fall near their homes because of what they do, until God’s promise comes. Indeed, God does not break His promise.

5 Opposition will fail

وَلَقَدِ ٱسۡتُهۡزِئَ بِرُسُلࣲ مِّن قَبۡلِكَ فَأَمۡلَیۡتُ لِلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ ثُمَّ أَخَذۡتُهُمۡۖ فَكَیۡفَ كَانَ عِقَابِ ۝٣٢

Bakhtiari Nejad

And messengers before you were certainly ridiculed, but I gave those who disbelieved some time and then took them (in punishment). How was My punishment?

walaqadi us'tuh'zi-a birusulin min qablika fa-amlaytu lilladhīna kafarū thumma akhadhtuhum fakayfa kāna ʿiqāb

أَفَمَنۡ هُوَ قَاۤىِٕمٌ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ نَفۡسِۭ بِمَا كَسَبَتۡۗ وَجَعَلُوا۟ لِلَّهِ شُرَكَاۤءَ قُلۡ سَمُّوهُمۡۚ أَمۡ تُنَبِّءُونَهُۥ بِمَا لَا یَعۡلَمُ فِی ٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَم بِظَـٰهِرࣲ مِّنَ ٱلۡقَوۡلِۗ بَلۡ زُیِّنَ لِلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ مَكۡرُهُمۡ وَصُدُّوا۟ عَنِ ٱلسَّبِیلِۗ وَمَن یُضۡلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِنۡ هَادࣲ ۝٣٣

Bakhtiari Nejad

Does anyone (besides God) watch over what everyone does? And yet they make partners for God. Say: “Name them, or do you inform Him about something that He does not know on the earth, or is it (just) superficial words?” No, but for those who disbelieve their plot is beautified and they are kept back from the (right) way. And anyone who God misguides has no guide.

afaman huwa qāimun ʿalā kulli nafsin bimā kasabat wajaʿalū lillahi shurakāa qul sammūhum am tunabbiūnahu bimā lā yaʿlamu fī l-arḍi am biẓāhirin mina l-qawli bal zuyyina lilladhīna kafarū makruhum waṣuddū ʿani l-sabīli waman yuḍ'lili l-lahu famā lahu min hādi

لَّهُمۡ عَذَابࣱ فِی ٱلۡحَیَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡیَاۖ وَلَعَذَابُ ٱلۡءَاخِرَةِ أَشَقُّۖ وَمَا لَهُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ مِن وَاقࣲ ۝٣٤

Bakhtiari Nejad

They have punishment in this world’s life, and the punishment in the Hereafter is certainly harder, and they will have no protector against God.

lahum ʿadhābun fī l-ḥayati l-dun'yā walaʿadhābu l-ākhirati ashaqqu wamā lahum mina l-lahi min wāqi

۞ مَّثَلُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ ٱلَّتِی وُعِدَ ٱلۡمُتَّقُونَۖ تَجۡرِی مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَـٰرُۖ أُكُلُهَا دَاۤىِٕمࣱ وَظِلُّهَاۚ تِلۡكَ عُقۡبَى ٱلَّذِینَ ٱتَّقَوا۟ۚ وَّعُقۡبَى ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ ٱلنَّارُ ۝٣٥

Bakhtiari Nejad

Example of the garden which is promised to those who are cautious (of God) is rivers flowing through it, and its food and shade are forever. This is the end of those who are cautious (of God), and the end of the disbelievers is the fire.

وَٱلَّذِینَ ءَاتَیۡنَـٰهُمُ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ یَفۡرَحُونَ بِمَاۤ أُنزِلَ إِلَیۡكَۖ وَمِنَ ٱلۡأَحۡزَابِ مَن یُنكِرُ بَعۡضَهُۥۚ قُلۡ إِنَّمَاۤ أُمِرۡتُ أَنۡ أَعۡبُدَ ٱللَّهَ وَلَاۤ أُشۡرِكَ بِهِۦۤۚ إِلَیۡهِ أَدۡعُوا۟ وَإِلَیۡهِ مَءَابِ ۝٣٦

Bakhtiari Nejad

Those to whom We gave the book are happy with what has been sent down to you, and some among the parties disbelieve in part of it. Say: “I am only ordered to serve God and do not associate (any partner) with Him, I invite to Him and the return is to Him.”

wa-alladhīna ātaynāhumu l-kitāba yafraḥūna bimā unzila ilayka wamina l-aḥzābi man yunkiru baʿḍahu qul innamā umir'tu an aʿbuda l-laha walā ush'rika bihi ilayhi adʿū wa-ilayhi maāb

Bakhtiari Nejad

That is how We have sent it (Quran) down, a ruling (and a law) in Arabic. And if you follow their desires after what has come to you from the knowledge, then there is no supporter and no protector for you against God.

wakadhālika anzalnāhu ḥuk'man ʿarabiyyan wala-ini ittabaʿta ahwāahum baʿdamā jāaka mina l-ʿil'mi mā laka mina l-lahi min waliyyin walā wāqi

6 Steady Progress of Truth

وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا رُسُلࣰا مِّن قَبۡلِكَ وَجَعَلۡنَا لَهُمۡ أَزۡوَ ٰجࣰا وَذُرِّیَّةࣰۚ وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُولٍ أَن یَأۡتِیَ بِءَایَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِۗ لِكُلِّ أَجَلࣲ كِتَابࣱ ۝٣٨

Bakhtiari Nejad

We have certainly sent messengers before you and appointed wives and children for them. And it was not (possible) for a messenger to bring a sign (or a miracle) except with God’s permission. For every period there is a mandate (or a record).

walaqad arsalnā rusulan min qablika wajaʿalnā lahum azwājan wadhurriyyatan wamā kāna lirasūlin an yatiya biāyatin illā bi-idh'ni l-lahi likulli ajalin kitābu

یَمۡحُوا۟ ٱللَّهُ مَا یَشَاۤءُ وَیُثۡبِتُۖ وَعِندَهُۥۤ أُمُّ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ ۝٣٩

Bakhtiari Nejad

God erases and records what He wants, and the main book is with Him.

yamḥū l-lahu mā yashāu wayuth'bitu waʿindahu ummu l-kitāb

وَإِن مَّا نُرِیَنَّكَ بَعۡضَ ٱلَّذِی نَعِدُهُمۡ أَوۡ نَتَوَفَّیَنَّكَ فَإِنَّمَا عَلَیۡكَ ٱلۡبَلَـٰغُ وَعَلَیۡنَا ٱلۡحِسَابُ ۝٤٠

Bakhtiari Nejad

And whether We show you some of that (punishment) which We promise them or We make you die (before that), your only responsibility is delivering (the message), and reckoning is Our responsibility.

wa-in mā nuriyannaka baʿḍa alladhī naʿiduhum aw natawaffayannaka fa-innamā ʿalayka l-balāghu waʿalaynā l-ḥisāb

أَوَ لَمۡ یَرَوۡا۟ أَنَّا نَأۡتِی ٱلۡأَرۡضَ نَنقُصُهَا مِنۡ أَطۡرَافِهَاۚ وَٱللَّهُ یَحۡكُمُ لَا مُعَقِّبَ لِحُكۡمِهِۦۚ وَهُوَ سَرِیعُ ٱلۡحِسَابِ ۝٤١

Bakhtiari Nejad

Do they not see that We come to the land and We reduce it from its sides? And God orders and no one revises/delays His order, and He is quick in reckoning.

awalam yaraw annā natī l-arḍa nanquṣuhā min aṭrāfihā wal-lahu yaḥkumu lā muʿaqqiba liḥuk'mihi wahuwa sarīʿu l-ḥisāb

وَقَدۡ مَكَرَ ٱلَّذِینَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَلِلَّهِ ٱلۡمَكۡرُ جَمِیعࣰاۖ یَعۡلَمُ مَا تَكۡسِبُ كُلُّ نَفۡسࣲۗ وَسَیَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡكُفَّـٰرُ لِمَنۡ عُقۡبَى ٱلدَّارِ ۝٤٢

Bakhtiari Nejad

And those (disbelievers) before them did certainly plot, but all plots belongs to God. He knows what everyone does. And the disbelievers are going to know who gets the final home (in the Hereafter).

waqad makara alladhīna min qablihim falillahi l-makru jamīʿan yaʿlamu mā taksibu kullu nafsin wasayaʿlamu l-kufāru liman ʿuq'bā l-dār

وَیَقُولُ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَسۡتَ مُرۡسَلࣰاۚ قُلۡ كَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ شَهِیدَۢا بَیۡنِی وَبَیۡنَكُمۡ وَمَنۡ عِندَهُۥ عِلۡمُ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ ۝٤٣

Bakhtiari Nejad

And those who disbelieve say: “You are not a messenger.” Say: “God and anyone who has knowledge of the book are enough as witness between me and you.”

wayaqūlu alladhīna kafarū lasta mur'salan qul kafā bil-lahi shahīdan baynī wabaynakum waman ʿindahu ʿil'mu l-kitāb
