Verse 1

Al-'Ankabut


(29:1) Alif. Lam. Mim.

(29:9) As for those who believed and acted righteously, We shall certainly
admit them among the righteous.

(29:10) Among people there are some who say:3 “We believe in
Allah.” But when such a person is made to endure suffering in Allah's cause,
he reckons the persecution he suffers at the hands of people as though it is
a chastisement from Allah.4 But if victory comes from your Lord,
the same person will say “We were with you.”5 Does Allah not know
whatever is in the hearts of the people of the world?

(29:11) Allah will surely ascertain who are the believers and who are the
hypocrites.6

(29:13) They will certainly carry their own burdens and other burdens besides
their own.9 They will assuredly be called to account on the Day
of Resurrection concerning the fabrications which they contrived.0

(29:15) Then We rescued Noah together with the people in the Ark4
and made it (that is, the Ark) a lesson for all people.5

(29:18) And if you give the lie (to the Messenger), then many nations before
you also gave the lie0 (to their Messengers). The Messenger is charged
with no other duty than to deliver the Message in clear terms.”

(29:19) Have1 they never observed how Allah creates for the first
time and then repeats it? Indeed (to repeat the creation of a thing) is even
easier for Allah2 (than creating it for the first time).

(29:35) And We have left a vestige of it in that city as a Clear Sign9
for a people who use their reason.0

(29:37) But they denounced him as a liar.3 So a mighty earthquake
overtook them, and by the morning they lay overturned in their houses.4

(29:39) And We destroyed Qarun (Korah) and Pharaoh and Haman. Moses came
to them with Clear Signs but they waxed arrogant in the land although they could
not have outstripped7 (Us).

(29:43) These are the parables that We set forth to make people understand.
But only those endowed with knowledge will comprehend them.

(29:53) They ask you to hasten in bringing chastisement3 upon
them. Had there not been an appointed term for it, the chastisement would have
already visited them; in fact it will come down upon them all of a sudden (at
its appointed time) while they will not be aware of it.

(29:54) They ask you to hasten the chastisement upon them although Hell encompasses
the unbelievers.

(29:55) (They will become aware of it) the Day when the chastisement will
overwhelm them from above and from under their feet, and He will say to them:
“Taste now the consequence of the deeds that you used to commit.”

(29:58) We shall house those who believed and acted righteously in the lofty
mansions of Paradise beneath which rivers flow. There they shall remain for
ever. How excellent a reward it is for those who acted (in obedience to Allah),6

(29:61) If you were to ask them:0 “Who created the heavens and
the earth and Who has kept the sun and the moon in subjection?” they will certainly
say: “Allah.” How come, then, they are being deluded from the Truth?

(29:65) When they embark in the ships they call upon Allah, consecrating
their faith to Him. But when He rescues them and brings them to land, they suddenly
begin to associate others with Allah in His Divinity

(29:66) that they may be ungrateful for the rescue that We granted them,
and that they may revel in the pleasures (of the present life).4
Soon they shall come to know.
