In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Praise is due to Allah, who has created the heavens and the earth and made darkness and light. Yet the unbelievers make (others) equal with their Lord. (1)

It is He who has created you from clay. He has decreed a term for you and another one set with Him. Yet you are still in doubt. (2)

He is Allah in the heavens and earth. He has knowledge of all that you hide and all that you reveal. He knows what you earn. (3)

Yet every time a sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord, they turn away from it. (4)

They belied the truth when it came to them, but there shall come to them news of that they were mocking. (5)

Have they not seen how many generations We have destroyed before them whom We had established in the land in a way We never established you, sending down for them abundant water from the sky and made the rivers to flow underneath them? Yet because they sinned, We destroyed them and raised up other generations after them. (6)

Had We sent down to you a Book on parchment and they touched it with their own hands, those who disbelieved would say: 'This is nothing but plain magic. ' (7)

They ask: 'Why has no angel been sent down to him? ' If We had sent down an angel, their fate would have been determined and they would never have been respited. (8)

If We had made him an angel, We would have given him the resemblance of a man, and would have as such confused them with that in which they are already confused. (9)

Other Messengers have been mocked before you. But those who scoffed at them were encompassed by that they had mocked. ' (10)
