#72. Jinn *SURAH*
In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful
1. Say: It has been revealed to me that a company of Jinns
listened (to the Qur'an). They say `We have really heard a
wonderful Recital!
2. It gives guidance to the Right and we have believed therein:
We shall not join (in worship) any (gods) with our Lord
3. `And exalted is the Majesty of our Lord: He has taken neither
a wife nor a son
4. `There were some foolish ones among us who used to utter
extravagant lies against Allah;
5. `But we do think that no man or spirit should say aught that
is untrue against Allah
6. `True there were persons among mankind who took shelter with
persons among the Jinns but they increased them in folly
7. `And they (came to) think as ye thought that Allah would not
raise up anyone (to Judgment)
8. `And we pried into the secrets of heaven; but we found it
filled with stern guards and flaming fires
9. `We used indeed to sit there in (hidden) stations to (steal) a
hearing; but any who listens now will find a flaming fire
watching him in ambush
10. `And we understand not whether ill is intended to those on
earth or whether their Lord (really) intends to guide them to
right conduct
11. `There are among us some that are righteous and some the
contrary: we follow divergent paths
12. `But we think that we can by no means frustrate Allah
throughout the earth nor can we frustrate Him by flight
13. `And as for us since we have listened to the Guidance we have
accepted it and any who believes in his Lord has no fear either
of a short (account) or of any injustice
14. `Amongst us are some that submit their wills (to Allah) and
some that swerve from justice. Now those who submit their wills
they have sought out (the path) of right conduct
15. `But those who swerve they are (but) fuel for Hell Fire '
16. (And Allah's Message is): "If they (the pagans) had (only)
remained on the (right) Way We should certainly have bestowed on
them Rain in abundance
17. "That We might try them by that (means) but if any turns away
from the remembrance of his Lord He will cause him to undergo a
severe Penalty
18. "And the places of worship are for Allah (alone): so invoke
not anyone along with Allah"
19. "Yet when the Devotee of Allah stands forth to invoke Him
they just make round him a dense crowd."
20. Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord and I join not with
Him any (false god)."
21. Say: "It is not in my power to cause you harm or to bring you
to right conduct."
22. Say: "No one can deliver me from Allah (if I were to disobey
Him) nor should I find refuge except in Him
23. "Unless I proclaim what I receive from Allah and His
Messages: for any that disobey and His Apostle for them is Hell:
they shall dwell therein forever."
24. At length when they see (with their own eyes) that which they
are promised then will they know who it is that is weakest in
(his) helper and least important in point of numbers
25. Say: "I know not whether the (punishment) which ye are
promised is near or whether my Lord will appoint for it a distant
term.
26. "He (alone) knows the Unseen nor does He make any one
acquainted with His a Mysteries
27. "Except an apostle whom He has chosen: and then He makes a
band of watchers march before him and behind him
28. "That he may know that they have (truly) brought and
delivered the Messages of their Lord: and He surrounds (all the
mysteries) that are with them and takes account of every single
thing."
