So there is not for him here this Day any devoted friend
Nor any food except from the discharge of wounds;
None will eat it except the sinners.
So I swear by what you see
And what you do not see
[That] indeed, it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is the word of a noble Messenger.
And it is not the word of a poet; little do you believe.
Nor the word of a soothsayer; little do you remember.
[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
And if he [i.e., Muḥammad] had made up about Us some [false] sayings,
We would have seized him by the right hand;
Then We would have cut from him the aorta.
And there is no one of you who could prevent [Us] from him.
And indeed, it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is a reminder for the righteous.
And indeed, We know that among you are deniers.
And indeed, it will be [a cause of] regret upon the disbelievers.
And indeed, it is the truth of certainty.
So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
A supplicant asked for a punishment bound to happen
To the disbelievers; of it there is no preventer.
[It is] from Allāh, owner of the ways of ascent.
The angels and the Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] will ascend to Him during a Day the extent of which is fifty thousand years.
So be patient with gracious patience.
Indeed, they see it [as] distant,
But We see it [as] near.
On the Day the sky will be like murky oil,
And the mountains will be like wool,
And no friend will ask [anything of] a friend,
