11:6
۞ وَمَا
مِن
دَآبَّةٍۢ
فِى
ٱلْأَرْضِ
إِلَّا
عَلَى
ٱللَّهِ
رِزْقُهَا
وَيَعْلَمُ
مُسْتَقَرَّهَا
وَمُسْتَوْدَعَهَا ۚ
كُلٌّۭ
فِى
كِتَـٰبٍۢ
مُّبِينٍۢ
ﱓ
There is not a creature that moves on earth whose provision is not His concern. He knows where it lives and its [final] resting place: it is all [there] in a clear record.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:7
وَهُوَ
ٱلَّذِى
خَلَقَ
ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ
وَٱلْأَرْضَ
فِى
سِتَّةِ
أَيَّامٍۢ
وَكَانَ
عَرْشُهُۥ
عَلَى
ٱلْمَآءِ
لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ
أَيُّكُمْ
أَحْسَنُ
عَمَلًۭا ۗ
وَلَئِن
قُلْتَ
إِنَّكُم
مَّبْعُوثُونَ
مِنۢ
بَعْدِ
ٱلْمَوْتِ
لَيَقُولَنَّ
ٱلَّذِينَ
كَفَرُوٓا۟
إِنْ
هَـٰذَآ
إِلَّا
سِحْرٌۭ
مُّبِينٌۭ
ﱴ
It is He who created the heavens and the earth in six Days––His rule extends over the waters too––so as to test which of you does best. Yet [Prophet], if you say to them, ‘You will be resurrected after death,’ the disbelievers are sure to answer, ‘This is clearly nothing but sorcery.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:8
وَلَئِنْ
أَخَّرْنَا
عَنْهُمُ
ٱلْعَذَابَ
إِلَىٰٓ
أُمَّةٍۢ
مَّعْدُودَةٍۢ
لَّيَقُولُنَّ
مَا
يَحْبِسُهُۥٓ ۗ
أَلَا
يَوْمَ
يَأْتِيهِمْ
لَيْسَ
مَصْرُوفًا
عَنْهُمْ
وَحَاقَ
بِهِم
مَّا
كَانُوا۟
بِهِۦ
يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ
ﲌ
If We defer their punishment for a determined time, they are sure to say, ‘What is holding it back?’ But on the Day it comes upon them, nothing will divert it from them; what they mocked will be all around them.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:9
وَلَئِنْ
أَذَقْنَا
ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ
مِنَّا
رَحْمَةًۭ
ثُمَّ
نَزَعْنَـٰهَا
مِنْهُ
إِنَّهُۥ
لَيَـُٔوسٌۭ
كَفُورٌۭ
ﲘ
How desperate and ungrateful man becomes when We let him taste Our mercy and then withhold it!

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:10
وَلَئِنْ
أَذَقْنَـٰهُ
نَعْمَآءَ
بَعْدَ
ضَرَّآءَ
مَسَّتْهُ
لَيَقُولَنَّ
ذَهَبَ
ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتُ
عَنِّىٓ ۚ
إِنَّهُۥ
لَفَرِحٌۭ
فَخُورٌ
ﲧ
And if We let him taste mercy after some harm has touched him, he is sure to say, ‘Misfortune has gone away from me.’ He becomes exultant and boastful.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:11
إِلَّا
ٱلَّذِينَ
صَبَرُوا۟
وَعَمِلُوا۟
ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
لَهُم
مَّغْفِرَةٌۭ
وَأَجْرٌۭ
كَبِيرٌۭ
ﲲ
Not so those who are steadfast and do good deeds: they will have forgiveness and a great reward.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:12
فَلَعَلَّكَ
تَارِكٌۢ
بَعْضَ
مَا
يُوحَىٰٓ
إِلَيْكَ
وَضَآئِقٌۢ
بِهِۦ
صَدْرُكَ
أَن
يَقُولُوا۟
لَوْلَآ
أُنزِلَ
عَلَيْهِ
كَنزٌ
أَوْ
جَآءَ
مَعَهُۥ
مَلَكٌ ۚ
إِنَّمَآ
أَنتَ
نَذِيرٌۭ ۚ
وَٱللَّهُ
عَلَىٰ
كُلِّ
شَىْءٍۢ
وَكِيلٌ
ﳐ
So [Prophet] are you going to abandon some part of what is revealed to you, and let your heart be oppressed by it, because they say, ‘Why is no treasure sent down to him? Why has no angel come with him?’? You are only there to warn; it is God who is in charge of everything.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:13
أَمْ
يَقُولُونَ
افْتَرَاهُ ۖ
قُلْ
فَأْتُوا۟
بِعَشْرِ
سُوَرٍۢ
مِّثْلِهِۦ
مُفْتَرَيَـٰتٍۢ
وَٱدْعُوا۟
مَنِ
ٱسْتَطَعْتُم
مِّن
دُونِ
ٱللَّهِ
إِن
كُنتُمْ
صَـٰدِقِينَ
ﱔ
If they say, ‘He has invented it himself,’ say, ‘Then produce ten invented suras like it, and call in whoever you can beside God, if you are truthful.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:14
فَإِلَّمْ
يَسْتَجِيبُوا۟
لَكُمْ
فَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟
أَنَّمَآ
أُنزِلَ
بِعِلْمِ
ٱللَّهِ
وَأَن
لَّآ
إِلَـٰهَ
إِلَّا
هُوَ ۖ
فَهَلْ
أَنتُم
مُّسْلِمُونَ
ﱦ
If they do not answer you, then you will all know that it is sent down containing knowledge from God, and that there is no god but Him. Then will you submit to Him?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:15
مَن
كَانَ
يُرِيدُ
ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ
ٱلدُّنْيَا
وَزِينَتَهَا
نُوَفِّ
إِلَيْهِمْ
أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ
فِيهَا
وَهُمْ
فِيهَا
لَا
يُبْخَسُونَ
ﱵ
If any desire [only] the life of this world with all its finery, We shall repay them in full in this life for their deeds- they will be given no less-

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:16
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
لَيْسَ
لَهُمْ
فِى
ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ
إِلَّا
ٱلنَّارُ ۖ
وَحَبِطَ
مَا
صَنَعُوا۟
فِيهَا
وَبَـٰطِلٌۭ
مَّا
كَانُوا۟
يَعْمَلُونَ
ﲇ
but such people will have nothing in the Hereafter but the Fire: their work here will be fruitless and their deeds futile.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:17
أَفَمَن
كَانَ
عَلَىٰ
بَيِّنَةٍۢ
مِّن
رَّبِّهِۦ
وَيَتْلُوهُ
شَاهِدٌۭ
مِّنْهُ
وَمِن
قَبْلِهِۦ
كِتَـٰبُ
مُوسَىٰٓ
إِمَامًۭا
وَرَحْمَةً ۚ
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
يُؤْمِنُونَ
بِهِۦ ۚ
وَمَن
يَكْفُرْ
بِهِۦ
مِنَ
ٱلْأَحْزَابِ
فَٱلنَّارُ
مَوْعِدُهُۥ ۚ
فَلَا
تَكُ
فِى
مِرْيَةٍۢ
مِّنْهُ ۚ
إِنَّهُ
ٱلْحَقُّ
مِن
رَّبِّكَ
وَلَـٰكِنَّ
أَكْثَرَ
ٱلنَّاسِ
لَا
يُؤْمِنُونَ
ﲳ
Can they be compared to those who have clear proof from their Lord, recited by a witness from Him, and before it the Book of Moses, as a guide and mercy? These people believe in it, whereas those groups that deny its truth are promised the Fire. So have no doubt about it [Prophet]: it is the Truth from your Lord, though most people do not believe so.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:18
وَمَنْ
أَظْلَمُ
مِمَّنِ
ٱفْتَرَىٰ
عَلَى
ٱللَّهِ
كَذِبًا ۚ
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
يُعْرَضُونَ
عَلَىٰ
رَبِّهِمْ
وَيَقُولُ
ٱلْأَشْهَـٰدُ
هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ
ٱلَّذِينَ
كَذَبُوا۟
عَلَىٰ
رَبِّهِمْ ۚ
أَلَا
لَعْنَةُ
ٱللَّهِ
عَلَى
ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ
ﳍ
Who could do more wrong than someone who invents lies about God? Such people will be brought before their Lord, and the witnesses will say, ‘These are the ones that lied about their Lord.’ God’s rejection is the due of those who do such wrong,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:19
ٱلَّذِينَ
يَصُدُّونَ
عَن
سَبِيلِ
ٱللَّهِ
وَيَبْغُونَهَا
عِوَجًۭا
وَهُم
بِٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ
هُمْ
كَـٰفِرُونَ
ﳙ
who hinder others from God’s path, trying to make it crooked, and deny the life to come.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:20
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
لَمْ
يَكُونُوا۟
مُعْجِزِينَ
فِى
ٱلْأَرْضِ
وَمَا
كَانَ
لَهُم
مِّن
دُونِ
ٱللَّهِ
مِنْ
أَوْلِيَآءَ ۘ
يُضَـٰعَفُ
لَهُمُ
ٱلْعَذَابُ ۚ
مَا
كَانُوا۟
يَسْتَطِيعُونَ
ٱلسَّمْعَ
وَمَا
كَانُوا۟
يُبْصِرُونَ
ﱛ
They will not escape on earth, and there will be no one other than God to protect them. Their punishment will be doubled. They could not hear, and they did not see.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:21
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
خَسِرُوٓا۟
أَنفُسَهُمْ
وَضَلَّ
عَنْهُم
مَّا
كَانُوا۟
يَفْتَرُونَ
ﱥ
It is they who will have lost their souls, and what they invented will have deserted them.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:22
لَا
جَرَمَ
أَنَّهُمْ
فِى
ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ
هُمُ
ٱلْأَخْسَرُونَ
ﱭ
There is no doubt they will be the ones to lose most in the life to come.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:23
إِنَّ
ٱلَّذِينَ
ءَامَنُوا۟
وَعَمِلُوا۟
ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ
وَأَخْبَتُوٓا۟
إِلَىٰ
رَبِّهِمْ
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
أَصْحَـٰبُ
ٱلْجَنَّةِ ۖ
هُمْ
فِيهَا
خَـٰلِدُونَ
ﱽ
But those who believed, did good deeds, and humbled themselves before their Lord will be companions in Paradise and there they will stay.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

11:24
۞ مَثَلُ
ٱلْفَرِيقَيْنِ
كَٱلْأَعْمَىٰ
وَٱلْأَصَمِّ
وَٱلْبَصِيرِ
وَٱلسَّمِيعِ ۚ
هَلْ
يَسْتَوِيَانِ
مَثَلًا ۚ
أَفَلَا
تَذَكَّرُونَ
ﲌ
These two groups are like the blind and the deaf as compared with those who can see and hear well: can they be alike? How can you not take heed?

11:25
وَلَقَدْ
أَرْسَلْنَا
نُوحًا
إِلَىٰ
قَوْمِهِۦٓ
