Qur'an by Sheikh Gabriel Keresztes No. 36

Today I learned about Qur'an:

And those ˹humans˺ thought, just like you ˹jinn˺, that Allah would not resurrect anyone ˹for judgment˺.

˹Earlier˺ we tried to reach heaven ˹for news˺, only to find it filled with stern guards and shooting stars.

We used to take up positions there for eavesdropping, but whoever dares eavesdrop now will find a flare lying in wait for them.

Now, we have no clue whether evil is intended for those on earth, or their Lord intends for them what is right.

Among us are those who are righteous and those who are less so. We have been of different factions.

And among us are those who have submitted ˹to Allah˺ and those who are deviant. So ˹as for˺ those who submitted, it is they who have attained Right Guidance.

And as for the deviant, they will be fuel for Hell.’”

Yet when the servant of Allah stood up calling upon Him ˹alone˺, the pagans almost swarmed over him.

Say, “It is not in my power to harm or benefit you.”

˹My duty is˺ only to convey ˹the truth˺ from Allah and ˹deliver˺ His messages.” And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger will certainly be in the Fire of Hell, to stay there for ever and ever.

to ensure that the messengers fully deliver the messages of their Lord—though He ˹already˺ knows all about them, and keeps account of everything.”

That is the end of this Surah.
