As-Sajdah

Alif, Lām, Mīm.

[This is] the revelation of the Book about which there is no doubt from the Lord of the worlds.

It is Allah who created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six days, then established Himself above the Throne.

He arranges [each] matter from the heaven to the earth; then it will ascend to Him in a Day, the extent of which is a thousand years.

He who perfected everything which He created and began the creation of man from clay.

Then He made his posterity out of the extract of a liquid disdained.

Then He proportioned him and breathed into him from His soul and made for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful.

And they say, 'When we are lost within the earth, will we indeed be [recreated] in a new creation?'

Say, 'The angel of death who is charged with you will take you, then to your Lord you will be returned.'

If you could but see when the criminals hang their heads before their Lord.

Only those believe in Our verses who, when they are reminded by them, fall down in prostration.

Their sides forsake their beds; they supplicate their Lord in fear and hope.

No soul knows what has been hidden for them of comfort for eyes as reward for what they used to do.

Then is one who was a believer like one who was defiantly disobedient? They are not equal.

As for those who believed and did righteous deeds, for them are the Gardens of Refuge as accommodation for what they used to do.

And We will surely let them taste the nearer punishment short of the greater punishment that perhaps they will return.

And We certainly gave Moses the Scripture, so do not be in doubt over his meeting.

And We made from among them leaders guiding by Our command when they were patient and were certain of Our signs.

Indeed, your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that over which they used to differ.

Have they not seen that We drive the water to barren land and bring forth thereby crops?
