74 the one cloaked in Truth

(In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, Most Merciful)

O Prophet Muhammad, cloaked with the Truth
 
and blessed with Knowledge,

of God, the Sovereign Lord of all the worlds,

arise from where you are sleeping, and warn the people,

and your Sovereign Lord will glorify you,

and He will purify your transgressions.

And, avoid sin and transgression,

and do not confer God’s favor only to receive more of it.

But, your Lord is the Most Patient toward his people.

And, when the trumpet is blown,

on the most difficult Judgment Day,

it won’t be easy for the DisBelievers.

Leave him be for His Creator,

The one to whom We granted a lot of wealth,

and children with him,

and spread everything before him, making his life easy.

Then, he always desires that We give him more.

No!  He has always been stubborn in his DisBelief toward the Qur’an.

We will cover him with difficult torment.

Indeed, he thought and planned against the Qur’an,

and discredited the Prophet.

So, may he be ruined for what he planned.

Then, he considered the Truth again.

Then, he frowned in DisBelief;

and he turned away again, and was stubborn,

saying, “This is nothing but pure sorcery imitated from others.

This is nothing but words from a man.”

God will send him to Hellfire.

And, what do you know of Hellfire?

It leaves nothing behind, nor leaves anything unburned;

burning and blackening the skin of those who enter it.

Over it reside nineteen angels.

And, We did not make anything to preside over it but angels.

And, We did not keep that number of angels,

except as a trial for those who DisBelieve,

and with hopes that those who were given the Scripture would Believe,

and that those who Believe would increase their Faith,

and not Doubt the Truth.

Those in whose heart is a disease of hypocrisy,

like the DisBelievers, will say, “What did God intend by this as an example?”

Thus, Allah leads astray whom He Wills, and God Guides whom He Wills.

And, none know the warriors of God except Him.

And, mentioning the Fire is but a reminder to mankind.

No!  By the moon,

and by the night when it dissipates,

and by the morning when it becomes light,

indeed, the Fire is the worst affliction of all.

It serves as a warning to mankind,

to whoever wills among you to proceed to the Path of Righteousness,

or stay behind.

Every soul is responsible for what it earns in life.

The Righteous will carry the good deeds they did in life in their right hand.

They will be in Gardens of Paradise, asking each other

about the wrongdoers.

And, they will ask the DisBelievers, “What put you into Hellfire?”

They will reply, “We were not of those people who prayed to God,

nor did we feed the poor in charity.

We also engaged in vain speech and writing with others who engaged in it.

And, we denied the Day of Recompense,

until the day we died.”

So, there will not be any intercessors on their behalf who will benefit them.

So, what is the matter with them?

 Why do they still turn away in UnBelief?

Why do they not heed the warnings, and act like frightened donkeys

escaping a lion?

Rather, each of them deny that Muhammad would be given the

Word of God to be made public.

No!  They obviously do not fear the Hereafter!

No!  The Qur’an is indeed a reminder and warning to mankind,

then whoever wills to remember it will.

And, they will not remember anything except as God wills.

For God is The Most Worthy to be Feared,

 and is The Most Deserving for Granting Forgiveness. 

Amen
