ilāhukum ilāhun wāḥidun fa-alladhīna lā yu'minūna bil-ākhirati qulūbuhum munkiratun wahum mus'takbirūn
16:23 ›
لَا جَرَمَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ یَعۡلَمُ مَا یُسِرُّونَ وَمَا یُعۡلِنُونَۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَا یُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُسۡتَكۡبِرِینَ ۝٢٣

Bakhtiari Nejad
So, they carry their full burdens on the Resurrection Day, as well as some burdens of those whom they misguided without knowledge. Surely, what they carry is bad.

16:26 ›
قَدۡ مَكَرَ ٱلَّذِینَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَأَتَى ٱللَّهُ بُنۡیَـٰنَهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡقَوَاعِدِ فَخَرَّ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلسَّقۡفُ مِن فَوۡقِهِمۡ وَأَتَىٰهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ مِنۡ حَیۡثُ لَا یَشۡعُرُونَ ۝٢٦

Bakhtiari Nejad
Then He humiliates them on the Resurrection Day and says: “Where are My (so called) partners, those you used to oppose (the believers) in them?” Those who were given knowledge say: “Indeed today the humiliation and the misery are upon the disbelievers.”
thumma yawma l-qiyāmati yukh'zīhim wayaqūlu ayna shurakāiya alladhīna kuntum tushāqqūna fīhim qāla alladhīna ūtū l-ʿil'ma inna l-khiz'ya l-yawma wal-sūa ʿalā l-kāfirīn

Those whom the angels take their lives while wronging themselves, then they offer submission (and say:) “We were not doing any bad (deed).” Yes, indeed God knows well what you were doing.

Bakhtiari Nejad
So, enter the gates of hell, remaining in there forever. Accommodation of the arrogant ones is certainly miserable.
fa-ud'khulū abwāba jahannama khālidīna fīhā falabi'sa mathwā l-mutakabirīn
16:30 ›
۞ وَقِیلَ لِلَّذِینَ ٱتَّقَوۡا۟ مَاذَاۤ أَنزَلَ رَبُّكُمۡۚ قَالُوا۟ خَیۡرࣰاۗ لِّلَّذِینَ أَحۡسَنُوا۟ فِی هَـٰذِهِ ٱلدُّنۡیَا حَسَنَةࣱۚ وَلَدَارُ ٱلۡءَاخِرَةِ خَیۡرࣱۚ وَلَنِعۡمَ دَارُ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ ۝٣٠
Bakhtiari Nejad
And those who were cautious (of God) are told: “What did your Lord send down?” They say: “Good.” For those who do good in this world there is a good (reward), and the home of the Hereafter is certainly better. And the home of those who are cautious (of God) is certainly excellent.

Bakhtiari Nejad
They enter in eternal gardens which rivers flow through them. They have whatever they want in it. That is how God rewards those who are cautious (of Him).

هَلۡ یَنظُرُونَ إِلَّاۤ أَن تَأۡتِیَهُمُ ٱلۡمَلَـٰۤىِٕكَةُ أَوۡ یَأۡتِیَ أَمۡرُ رَبِّكَۚ كَذَ ٰلِكَ فَعَلَ ٱلَّذِینَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡۚ وَمَا ظَلَمَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَلَـٰكِن كَانُوۤا۟ أَنفُسَهُمۡ یَظۡلِمُونَ ۝٣٣
Bakhtiari Nejad
Do they (the disbelievers) wait for anything except that the angels come to them or your Lord’s command comes (for their punishment)? That is how those before them acted. God did not wrong them, but they used to wrong themselves.
hal yanẓurūna illā an tatiyahumu l-malāikatu aw yatiya amru rabbika kadhālika faʿala alladhīna min qablihim wamā ẓalamahumu l-lahu walākin kānū anfusahum yaẓlimūn

Bakhtiari Nejad
So, the bad result of what they did happened to them, and they were surrounded by what they used to ridicule.

5 Prophets raised to explain
16:35 ›
وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِینَ أَشۡرَكُوا۟ لَوۡ شَاۤءَ ٱللَّهُ مَا عَبَدۡنَا مِن دُونِهِۦ مِن شَیۡءࣲ نَّحۡنُ وَلَاۤ ءَابَاۤؤُنَا وَلَا حَرَّمۡنَا مِن دُونِهِۦ مِن شَیۡءࣲۚ كَذَ ٰلِكَ فَعَلَ ٱلَّذِینَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡۚ فَهَلۡ عَلَى ٱلرُّسُلِ إِلَّا ٱلۡبَلَـٰغُ ٱلۡمُبِینُ ۝٣٥
Bakhtiari Nejad
And those who associated (partners with God) said: “If God wanted, we and our fathers would not have served anything other than Him, and we would not have forbidden anything other than His (prohibitions).” That is how those before them acted. Are the messengers responsible for anything other than clearly delivering (the message)?

Bakhtiari Nejad
We have certainly raised a messenger among every group of people (saying:) “Serve God and avoid the rebellious ones.” God guided some of them, and some of them deserved misguidance. So, travel throughout the earth and see what the end of those who denied was.
walaqad baʿathnā fī kulli ummatin rasūlan ani uʿ'budū l-laha wa-ij'tanibū l-ṭāghūta famin'hum man hadā l-lahu wamin'hum man ḥaqqat ʿalayhi l-ḍalālatu fasīrū fī l-arḍi fa-unẓurū kayfa kāna ʿāqibatu l-mukadhibīn

إِن تَحۡرِصۡ عَلَىٰ هُدَىٰهُمۡ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یَهۡدِی مَن یُضِلُّۖ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن نَّـٰصِرِینَ ۝٣٧
Bakhtiari Nejad
Although you are eager for their guidance, indeed God does not guide those whom He misguides, and there is no helper for them.

وَأَقۡسَمُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ جَهۡدَ أَیۡمَـٰنِهِمۡ لَا یَبۡعَثُ ٱللَّهُ مَن یَمُوتُۚ بَلَىٰ وَعۡدًا عَلَیۡهِ حَقࣰّا وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٣٨
Bakhtiari Nejad
They solemnly swear by God that God does not raise anyone who dies. Yes (He will), that is a true promise (binding) on Him, but most people do not know.
wa-aqsamū bil-lahi jahda aymānihim lā yabʿathu l-lahu man yamūtu balā waʿdan ʿalayhi ḥaqqan walākinna akthara l-nāsi lā yaʿlamūn
16:39 ›
لِیُبَیِّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلَّذِی یَخۡتَلِفُونَ فِیهِ وَلِیَعۡلَمَ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوۤا۟ أَنَّهُمۡ كَانُوا۟ كَـٰذِبِینَ ۝٣٩
Bakhtiari Nejad
So that He clarifies for them what they disagree about, and so that those who disbelieve know that indeed they were liars.

Bakhtiari Nejad
Indeed, Our word for anything when We want it, is that We say for it: “Be” and it will be.

And do not be like her who unraveled her yarn, breaking it, after making it strong (by spinning it), by taking your oaths as a means of deception among you so that one group be more numerous (and powerful) than another group.
