Chapter 17: Surah Al Isra - Verse 39 - 111 - Sheikh Maher Al-Maeqely



17:39 This is of what your Lord has revealed to you of wisdom, and do not associate any other god with Allah lest you should be thrown into hell, blamed, cast away.
17:40 What! has then your Lord preferred to give you sons, and (for Himself) taken daughters from among the angels? Most surely you utter a grievous saying.
17:41 And certainly We have repeated (warnings) in this Quran that they may be mindful, but it does not add save to their aversion.
17:42 Say: If there were with Him gods as they say, then certainly they would have been able to seek a way to the Lord of power.
17:43 Glory be to Him and exalted be He in high exaltation above what they say.
17:44 The seven heavens declare His glory and the earth (too), and those who are in them; and there is not a single thing but glorifies Him with His praise, but you do not understand their glorification; surely He is Forbearing, Forgiving.
17:45 And when you recite the Quran, We place between you and those who do not believe in the hereafter a hidden barrier;
17:46 And We have placed coverings on their hearts and a heaviness in their ears lest they understand it, and when you mention your Lord alone in the Quran they turn their backs in aversion.
17:47 We know best what they listen to when they listen to you, and when they take counsel secretly, when the unjust say: You follow only a man deprived of reason.
17:48 See what they liken you to! So they have gone astray and cannot find the way.
17:49 And they say: What! when we shall have become bones and decayed particles, shall we then certainly be raised up, being a new creation?
17:50 Say: Become stones or iron,
17:51 Or some other creature of those which are too hard (to receive life) in your minds! But they will say: Who will return us? Say: Who created you at first. Still they will shake their heads at you and say: When will it be? Say: Maybe it has drawn nigh.
17:52 On the day when He will call you forth, then shall you obey Him, giving Him praise, and you will think that you tarried but a little (while).
17:53 And say to My servants (that) they speak that which is best; surely the Shaitan sows dissensions among them; surely the Shaitan is an open enemy to man.
17:54 Your Lord knows you best; He will have mercy on you if He pleases, or He will chastise you if He pleases; and We have not sent you as being in charge of them.
17:55 And your Lord best knows those who are in the heavens and the earth; and certainly We have made some of the prophets to excel others, and to Dawood We gave a scripture.
17:56 Say: Call on those whom you assert besides Him, so they shall not control the removal of distress from you nor (its) transference.
17:57 Those whom they call upon, themselves seek the means of access to their Lord-- whoever of them is nearest-- and they hope for His mercy and fear His chastisement; surely the chastisement of your Lord is a thing to be cautious of.
17:58 And there is not a town but We will destroy it before the day of resurrection or chastise it with a severe chastisement; this is written in the Divine ordinance.
17:59 And nothing could have hindered Us that We should send signs except that the ancients rejected them; and We gave to Samood the she-camel-- a manifest sign-- but on her account they did injustice, and We do not send signs but to make (men) fear.
17:60 And when We said to you: Surely your Lord encompasses men; and We did not make the vision which We showed you but a trial for men and the cursed tree in the Quran as well; and We cause them to fear, but it only adds to their great inordinacy.
17:61 And when We said to the angels: Make obeisance to Adam; they made obeisance, but Iblis (did it not). He said: Shall I make obeisance to him whom Thou hast created of dust?
17:62 He said: Tell me, is this he whom Thou hast honored above me? If Thou shouldst respite me to the day of resurrection, I will most certainly cause his progeny to perish except a few.
17:63 He said: Be gone! for whoever of them will follow you, then surely hell is your recompense, a full recompense:
17:64 And beguile whomsoever of them you can with your voice, and collect against them your forces riding and on foot, and share with them in wealth and children, and hold out promises to them; and the Shaitan makes not promises to them but to deceive:
17:65 Surely (as for) My servants, you have no authority over them; and your Lord is sufficient as a Protector.
17:66 Your Lord is He Who speeds the ships for you in the sea that you may seek of His grace; surely He is ever Merciful to you.
17:67 And when distress afflicts you in the sea, away go those whom you call on except He; but when He brings you safe to the land, you turn aside; and man is ever ungrateful.
17:68 What! Do you then feel secure that He will not cause a tract of land to engulf you or send on you a tornado? Then you shall not find a protector for yourselves.
17:69 Or, do you feel secure that He will (not) take you back into it another time, then send on you a fierce gale and thus drown you on account of your ungratefulness? Then you shall not find any aider against Us in the matter.
17:70 And surely We have honored the children of Adam, and We carry them in the land and the sea, and We have given them of the good things, and We have made them to excel by an appropriate excellence over most of those whom We have created.
17:71 (Remember) the day when We will call every people with their Imam; then whoever is given his book in his right hand, these shall read their book; and they shall not be dealt with a whit unjustly.
17:72 And whoever is blind in this, he shall (also) be blind in the hereafter; and more erring from the way.
17:73 And surely they had purposed to turn you away from that which We have revealed to you, that you should forge against Us other than that, and then they would certainly have taken you for a friend.
17:74 And had it not been that We had already established you, you would certainly have been near to incline to them a little;
17:75 In that case We would certainly have made you to taste a double (punishment) in this life and a double (punishment) after death, then you would not have found any helper against Us.
17:76 And.surely they purposed to unsettle you from the land that they might expel you from it, and in that case they will not tarry behind you but a little.
17:77 (This is Our) course with regard to those of Our apostles whom We sent before you, and you shall not find a change in Our course.
17:78 Keep up prayer from the declining of the sun till the darkness of the night and the morning recitation; surely the morning recitation is witnessed.
17:79 And during a part of the night, pray Tahajjud beyond what is incumbent on you; maybe your Lord will raise you to a position of great glory.
17:80 And say: My Lord! make me to enter a goodly entering, and cause me to go forth a goodly going forth, and grant me from near Thee power to assist (me).
17:81 And say: The truth has come and the falsehood has vanished; surely falsehood is a vanishing (thing).
17:82 And We reveal of the Quran that which is a healing and a mercy to the believers, and it adds only to the perdition of the unjust.
17:83 And when We bestow favor on man, he turns aside and behaves proudly, and when evil afflicts him, he is despairing.
17:84 Say: Every one acts according to his manner; but your Lord best knows who is best guided in the path.
17:85 And they ask you about the soul. Say: The soul is one of the commands of my Lord, and you are not given aught of knowledge but a little.
17:86 And if We please, We should certainly take away that which We have revealed to you, then you would not find for it any protector against Us.
17:87 But on account of mercy from your Lord-- surely His grace to you is abundant.
17:88 Say: If men and jinn should combine together to bring the like of this Quran, they could not bring the like of it, though some of them were aiders of others.
17:89 And certainly We have explained for men in this Quran every kind of similitude, but most men do not consent to aught but denying.
17:90 And they say: We will by no means believe in you until you cause a fountain to gush forth from the earth for us.
17:91 Or you should have a garden of palms and grapes in the midst of which you should cause rivers to flow forth, gushing out.
17:92 Or you should cause the heaven to come down upon us in pieces as you think, or bring Allah and the angels face to face (with us).
17:93 Or you should have a house of gold, or you should ascend into heaven, and we will not believe in your ascending until you bring down to us a book which we may read. Say: Glory be to my Lord; am I aught but a mortal apostle?
17:94 And nothing prevented people from believing when the guidance came to them except that they said: What! has Allah raised up a mortal to be an apostle?
17:95 Say: Had there been in the earth angels walking about as settlers, We would certainly have sent down to them from the heaven an angel as an apostle.
17:96 Say: Allah suffices as a witness between me and you; surely He is Aware of His servants, Seeing.
17:97 And whomsoever Allah guides, he is the follower of the right way, and whomsoever He causes to err, you shall not find for him guardians besides Him; and We will gather them together on the day of resurrection on their faces, blind and dumb and deaf; their abode is hell; whenever it becomes allayed We will add to their burning.
17:98 This is their retribution because they disbelieved in Our communications and said What! when we shall have become bones and decayed particles, shall we then indeed be raised up into a new creation?
17:99 Do they not consider that Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth, is able to create their like, and He has appointed for them a doom about which there is no doubt? But the unjust do not consent to aught but denying.
17:100 Say: If you control the treasures of the mercy of my Lord, then you would withhold (them) from fear of spending, and man is niggardly.
17:101 And certainly We gave Musa nine clear signs; so ask the children of Israel. When he came to them, Firon said to him: Most surely I deem you, O Musa, to be a man deprived of reason.
17:102 He said: Truly you know that none but the Lord of the heavens and the earth has sent down these as clear proof and most surely I believe you, O Firon, to be given over to perdition.
17:103 So he desired to destroy them out of the earth, but We drowned him and those with him all together;
17:104 And We said to the Israelites after him: Dwell in the land: and when the promise of the next life shall come to pass, we will bring you both together in judgment.
17:105 And with truth have We revealed it, and with truth did it come; and We have not sent you but as the giver of good news and as a warner.
17:106 And it is a Quran which We have revealed in portions so that you may read it to the people by slow degrees, and We have revealed it, revealing in portions.
17:107 Say: Believe in it or believe not; surely those who are given the knowledge before it fall down on their faces, making obeisance when it is recited to them.
17:108 And they say: Glory be to our Lord! most surely the promise of our Lord was to be fulfilled.
17:109 And they fall down on their faces weeping, and it adds to their humility.
17:110 Say: Call upon Allah or call upon, the Beneficent God; whichever you call upon, He has the best names; and do not utter your prayer with a very raised voice nor be silent with regard to it, and seek a way between these.
17:111 And say: (All) praise is due to Allah, Who has not taken a son and Who has not a partner in the kingdom, and Who has not a helper to save Him from disgrace; and proclaim His greatness magnifying (Him).
