Surah Al-Furqān
Surah Al-Furqān
In The Name
of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Blessed is He Who
hath revealed unto His slave the Criterion (of right and wrong), that he may be
a warner to the peoples. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:1)
He unto Whom
belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, He hath chosen no son
nor hath He any partner in the Sovereignty. He hath created everything and hath
meted out for it a measure. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:2)
Yet they choose
beside Him other gods who create naught but are themselves created, and possess
not hurt nor profit for themselves, and possess not death nor life, nor power
to raise the dead. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:3)
Those who
disbelieve say: This is naught but a lie that he hath invented, and other folk
have helped him with it, so that they have produced a slander and a lie. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:4)
And they say:
Fables of the men of old which he hath had written down so that they are
dictated to him morn and evening. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:5)
Say (unto them, O
Muhammad): He who knoweth the secret of the heavens and the earth hath revealed
it. Lo! He ever is Forgiving, Merciful. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:6)
And they say:
What aileth this messenger (of Allah) that he eateth food and walketh in the
markets? Why is not an angel sent down unto him, to be a warner with him. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:7)
Or (why is not)
treasure thrown down unto him, or why hath he not a paradise from whence to eat?
And the evil-doers say: Ye are but following a man bewitched. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:8)
See how they coin
similitudes for thee, so that they are all astray and cannot find a road! (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:9)
Blessed is He
Who, if He will, will assign thee better than (all) that - Gardens underneath
which rivers flow - and will assign thee mansions. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:10)
Nay, but they
deny (the coming of) the Hour, and for those who deny (the coming of) the Hour
We have prepared a flame. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:11)
When it seeth
them from afar, they hear the crackling and the roar thereof. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:12)
And when they are
flung into a narrow place thereof, chained together, they pray for destruction
there. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:13)
Pray not that day
for one destruction, but pray for many destructions! (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:14)
Say: Is that
(doom) better or the Garden of Immortality which is promised unto those who
ward off (evil)? It will be their reward and journey's end. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:15)
Therein abiding,
they have all that they desire. It is for thy Lord a promise that must be
fulfilled. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:16)
And on the day
when He will assemble them and that which they worship instead of Allah and
will say: Was it ye who misled these my slaves or did they (themselves) wander
from the way? (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:17)
They will say: Be
Thou Glorified! it was not for us to choose any protecting friends beside thee;
but Thou didst give them and their fathers ease till they forgot the warning
and became lost folk. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:18)
Thus they will
give you the lie regarding what ye say, then ye can neither avert (the doom)
nor obtain help. And whoso among you doeth wrong, We shall make him taste great
torment. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:19)
We never sent
before thee any messengers but lo! they verily ate food and walked in the
markets. And We have appointed some of you a test for others: Will ye be
steadfast? And thy Lord is ever Seer. (Quran Surah Al-Furqān 25:20)
And those who
look not for a meeting with Us say: Why are angels not sent down unto us and
(Why) do we not see our Lord! Assuredly they think too highly of themselves and
are scornful with great pride. (Quran 25:21)
On the day when
they behold the angels, on that day there will be no good tidings for the
guilty; and they will cry: A forbidding ban! (Quran 25:22)
And We shall turn
unto the work they did and make it scattered motes. (Quran 25:23)
Those who have
earned the Garden on that day will be better in their home and happier in their
place of noonday rest; (Quran 25:24)
A day when the
heaven with the clouds will be rent asunder and the angels will be sent down, a
grand descent. (Quran 25:25)
The Sovereignty
on that day will be the True (Sovereignty) belonging to the Beneficent One, and
it will be a hard day for disbelievers. (Quran 25:26)
On the day when
the wrong-doer gnaweth his hands, he will say: Ah, would that I had chosen a
way together with the messenger (of Allah)! (Quran 25:27)
Alas for me! Ah,
would that I had never taken such an one for friend! (Quran 25:28)
He verily led me
astray from the Reminder after it had reached me. Satan was ever man's deserter
in the hour of need. (Quran 25:29)
And the messenger
saith: O my Lord! Lo! mine own folk make this Qur'an of no account. (Quran 25:30)
Even so have We
appointed unto every prophet an opponent from among the guilty; but Allah
sufficeth for a Guide and Helper. (Quran 25:31)
And those who
disbelieve say: Why is the Qur'an not revealed unto him all at once? (It is
revealed) thus that We may strengthen thy heart therewith; and We have arranged
it in right order. (Quran 25:32)
And they bring
thee no similitude but We bring thee the Truth (as against it), and better
(than their similitude) as argument. (Quran 25:33)
Those who will be
gathered on their faces unto hell: such are worse in plight and further from
the right road. (Quran 25:34)
We verily gave
Moses the Scripture and placed with him his brother Aaron as henchman. (Quran 25:35)

together unto the folk who have denied Our revelations. Then We destroyed them,
a complete destruction. (Quran 25:36)
And Noah's folk,
when they denied the messengers, We drowned them and made of them a portent for
mankind. We have prepared a painful doom for evil-doers. (Quran 25:37)
And (the tribes
of) A'ad and Thamud, and the dwellers in Ar-Rass, and many generations in
between. (Quran 25:38)
Each (of them) We
warned by examples, and each (of them) We brought to utter ruin. (Quran 25:39)
And indeed they
have passed by the township whereon was rained the fatal rain. Can it be that
they have not seen it? Nay, but they hope for no resurrection. (Quran 25:40)
And when they see
thee (O Muhammad) they treat thee only as a jest (saying): Is this he whom
Allah sendeth as a messenger? (Quran 25:41)
He would have led
us far away from our gods if we had not been staunch to them. They will know,
when they behold the doom, who is more astray as to the road. (Quran 25:42)
Hast thou seen
him who chooseth for his god his own lust? Wouldst thou then be guardian over
him? (Quran 25:43)
Or deemest thou
that most of them hear or understand? They are but as the cattle - nay, but
they are farther astray? (Quran 25:44)
Hast thou not
seen how thy Lord hath spread the shade - And if He willed He could have made
it still - then We have made the sun its pilot; (Quran 25:45)
Then We withdraw
it unto Us, a gradual withdrawal? (Quran 25:46)
And He it is Who
maketh night a covering for you, and sleep repose, and maketh day a
resurrection. (Quran 25:47)
And He it is Who
sendeth the winds, glad tidings heralding His mercy, and We send down purifying
water from the sky, (Quran 25:48)
That We may give
life thereby to a dead land, and We give many beasts and men that We have
created to drink thereof. (Quran 25:49)
And verily We
have repeated it among them that they may remember, but most of mankind
begrudge aught save ingratitude. (Quran 25:50)
If We willed, We
could raise up a warner in every village. (Quran 25:51)
So obey not the
disbelievers, but strive against them herewith with a great endeavour. (Quran 25:52)
And He it is Who
hath given independence to the two seas (though they meet); one palatable,
sweet, and the other saltish, bitter; and hath set a bar and a forbidding ban
between them. (Quran 25:53)
And He it is Who
hath created man from water, and hath appointed for him kindred by blood and
kindred by marriage; for thy Lord is ever Powerful. (Quran 25:54)
Yet they worship
instead of Allah that which can neither benefit them nor hurt them. The
disbeliever was ever a partisan against his Lord. (Quran 25:55)
And We have sent
thee (O Muhammad) only as a bearer of good tidings and a warner. (Quran 25:56)
Say: I ask of you
no reward for this, save that whoso will may choose a way unto his Lord. (Quran 25:57)
And trust thou in
the Living One Who dieth not, and hymn His praise. He sufficeth as the Knower
of His bondmen's sins, (Quran 25:58)
Who created the heavens
and the earth and all that is between them in six Days, then He mounted the
Throne. The Beneficent! Ask anyone informed concerning Him! (Quran 25:59)
And when it is
said unto them: Prostrate to the Beneficent! they say: And what is the
Beneficent? Are we to prostrate to whatever thou (Muhammad) biddest us? And it
increaseth aversion in them. (Quran 25:60)
Blessed be He Who
hath placed in the heaven mansions of the stars, and hath placed therein a
great lamp and a moon giving light! (Quran 25:61)
And He it is Who
hath appointed night and day in succession, for him who desireth to remember,
or desireth thankfulness. (Quran 25:62)
The (faithful)
slaves of the Beneficent are they who walk upon the earth modestly, and when
the foolish ones address them answer: Peace; (Quran 25:63)
And who spend the
night before their Lord, prostrate and standing, (Quran 25:64)
And who say: Our
Lord! Avert from us the doom of hell; lo! the doom thereof is anguish; (Quran 25:65)
Lo! it is
wretched as abode and station; (Quran 25:66)
And those who,
when they spend, are neither prodigal nor grudging; and there is ever a firm
station between the two; (Quran 25:67)
And those who cry
not unto any other god along with Allah, nor take the life which Allah hath
forbidden save in (course of) justice, nor commit adultery - and whoso doeth
this shall pay the penalty; (Quran 25:68)
The doom will be
doubled for him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein disdained
for ever; (Quran 25:69)

Lord! Vouchsafe us comfort of our wives and of our offspring, and make us
patterns for (all) those who ward off (evil). (Quran 25:74)
They will be

therein with welcome and the ward of peace, (Quran 25:75)
Abiding there for
ever. Happy is it as abode and station! (Quran 25:76)
Say (O Muhammad, unto the disbelievers): My Lord would not concern Himself with you but for your prayer. But now ye have denied (the Truth), therefor there will be judgment. (Quran 25:77)
