(2) 2. I (Allah) swear by the Scripture (Qur’an) that makes manifest (the Truth).
(3) 3. Surely We sent it (this Qur’an) down on a blessed night. Surely We are ever warning.

(12) 12. (O Allah) our Lord! Remove from us the Suffering (due to drought and climate change); surely we are believers.
(13) 13. How will there be for them a reminder, and there had came to them a Messenger (the Prophet Muhammad) making (the Truth) manifest,
(14) 14. Yet they turned their backs on him and said: One taught (by others), a man possessed.
(15) 15. Surely We (Allah) shall remove the Suffering for a while, (but) you will surely return (to evil).
(16) 16. On the Day (The day of the battle of Badr) when We shall seize (them) with the greatest Seizing; surely We shall exact retribution.

(19) 19. And exalt not yourselves against Allah, surely I have come to you with a clear authority:
(20) 20. And surely I have sought refuge with (Allah) my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me to death (or revile me),
(21) 21. And if you do not believe in me, then leave me alone.
(22) 22. Then (finally) Moses called upon (Allah) his Lord (saying): These are a defiant unbelievers.

(25) 25. How many of gardens and springs have they left behind?
(26) 26. And fields of grain and noble places?
(27) 27. And goodly things wherein they rejoiced?
(28) 28. Thus (it was), and We gave them as an inheritance to another people.
(29) 29. So the heaven and the earth did not weep for them, nor were they given respite.
(30) 30. And certainly We (Allah) saved the children of Israel from the humiliating suffering,

(33) 33. And We gave them of the Signs wherein was a clear trial.
(34) 34. Most surely these (pagans) do say:
(35) 35. There is nothing but our first death and we shall not be resurrected.

(37) 37. Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them (for their sins), for surely they were defiant unbelievers.
(38) 38. And We (Allah) did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them for mere idle play (without meaning and purpose).

(46) 46. Like the boiling of hot water.
(47) 47. Seize him, then drag him down into the middle of Hell;
(48) 48. Then pour over his head of the Torment of the boiling water,
(49) 49. Taste it; you who considered yourself so mighty, so honorable!

(51) 51. Surely those who keep to the Commandments of Allah and guard against evil will be in a secure place,
(52) 52. In gardens and springs;
(53) 53. They will wear of fine and thick silk, (sitting) face-to-face;
(54) 54. Thus (will it be), and We shall wed them to beautiful ones with wide, lovely eyes.

(56) 56. They will not taste therein death except the first death, and He will save them from the Torment of the Hellfire,
(57) 57. A Bounty from (Allah) your Lord; this is the Great Achievement.
