Summary:
1. Ta. Sin. Mim. These are Verses of the Book that makes things clear. We recite to you from the account of Moses and Firon.
2. Firon exalted himself in the land and devide its people into parties, weakening one party from among them. He slaughtered their sons and let their women live. Surely he was one of the mischiefmakers.
3. We desired to bestow a favor upon those who were weak in the land, and to make them leaders and the heirs. And to grant them power in the land, and to make Firon and Haman and their hosts see what they feared.
4. We revealed to Moses’s mother: “Give him a suck, then cast him into the river and do not fear nor grieve. We wi!l bring him back to you and make him one of the messengers”.
5. And Firon’s family took Moses up and Firon’s wife said: “A refreshment of the eye to me and to you. Do not slay him. Maybe he will be useful to us or we may take him for a son and they did not perceive”.
6. We strengthened his mother's heart and she pesuaded Moses's sister to “Follow him up”. So she watched Moses from a distance.
7. We ordained that Moses refused suck at first, until his sister came up to the people and said: “Shall I point out to you the people that will nourish and bring him up for you and be sincerely attached to him?” So We gave him back to his mother. The promise of Allah is true, but most do not know.
8. When he attained his maturity and became full grown, We granted him wisdom and knowledge. Thus do We reward those who do good to others.
9. He entered the city where he found there two men fighting, one of his own religion, and the other, of his foes. The man of his own religion appealed to him against his foe, and Moses struck him with his fist and made an end of him. He said: “This is a work of Evil Satan for he misleads!”
10. He said: My Lord! surely I have done harm to myself, so do Thou protect me”. So He protected him; surely He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.
11. He was looking around the next day, in a state of fear, when the man who had, the day before, sought his help called aloud for his help again. Moses said to him: “You are most surely a quarrelsome fellow!” When he desired to seize him who was an enemy to them both, he said: “O Moses! do you intend to kill me as you killed a person yesterday? You desire nothing but that you should be a tyrant in the land, and you do not desire to be of those who act aright”.
12. And there came a man, running, from the furthest end of the City saying: “O Moses! the Chiefs are taking counsel together about thee, to slay thee. So get thee away, for I do give thee sincere advice”.
13. Moses therefore got away therefrom, looking about, in a state of fear. He prayed “O my Lord! save me from people given to wrong-doing”. Then, he turned his face towards Madyan. He said: “I do hope that my Lord will show me the smooth and straight Path”.
14. When he arrived at the watering place in Madyan, he found a group of men watering their flocks and besides them he found two women who were keeping back their flocks. He said: “What is the matter with you?” They said: “We cannot water our flocks until the shepherds take back their flocks. And our father is a very old man”.
15. So he watered their flocks for them, then he turned back to the shade and said: “O my Lord! truly am I in desperate need of any good that Thou dost send me!”
16. One of the damsels came back to him saying: “My father invites thee that he may reward thee for having watered our flocks for us”. So when he came to him and narrated the story, he said: “Fear not, you are secure from the unjust people”.
17. Said one of the damsels: “Dear father! engage him on wages. Truly the best of men for thee to employ is the man who is strong and trusty”. The father said: “I desire to marry one of these two daughters of mine to you on condition that you should serve me for eight years, but if you complete ten, it will be of your own free will, and I do not wish to be hard to you. If Allah please, you will find me one of the good”.
18. Moses said: “This shall be an agreement between me and you, whichever of the two terms I fulfill, there shall be no wrongdoing to me. And Allah is a witness of what we say”.
19. When Moses had fulfilled the term and he journeyed with his family, he perceived on this side of the mountain a fire. He said: “Wait, I have seen a fire, maybe I will bring to you from it some news or a brand of fire, so that you may warm yourselves”.
20. When he came to it, a voice was uttered from the right side of the valley, saying: “O Moses! surely I am Allah, the Lord of the worlds. Cast down you staff”. When Musa saw the staff in motion as if it were a serpent, he turned back retreating and did not return. “O Moses! come forward and fear not. Surely you are of those who are secure. Enter your hand into the opening of your bosom, it will come forth white without evil, and draw your hand to yourself to ward off fear. These two shall be two arguments from your Lord to Firon and his chiefs, surely they are a transgressing people”.
21. Moses said: “My Lord! surely I killed one of them, so I fear lest they should slay me. And my brother, Haroun, he is more eloquent of tongue than I. Therefore send him with me as an aider, verifying me. Surely I fear that they would reject me”.
22. Allah agreed saying: “We will strengthen your arm with your brother, and We will give you both an authority, so that they shall not reach you. Go with Our signs, you two and those who follow you shall be uppermost”.
23. So when Moses came to Firon with Our clear signs. They rejected and said: “This is nothing but forged enchantment and we never heard of it amongst our fathers of old”.
24. Moses said: “My Lord knows best who comes with guidance from Him, and whose shall be the good end of the abod. Surely the unjust shall not be successful”.
25. Then Firon said: “O chiefs! I do not know of any god for you besides myself. Kindle for me a fire, O Haman, to bake the mud and set up for me a lofty tower in order that I may survey the god of Moses. Most surely I think him to be one of the liars”. He was arrogant and insolent in the land, beyond reason. They thought that they would not have to return to Us!
26. So We seized him and his hosts, and We flung them into the sea. Now behold what was the end of those who did wrong!
27. And We made them leaders who call to the fire and on the day of resurrection they shall not be assisted. And We caused a curse to follow them in this world, and on the day of resurrection they shall be of those made to appear hideous.
28. And certainly We gave Moses the Book after We had destroyed the former generations, clear arguments for men and a guidance and a mercy, that they may be mindful.
29. You Muhammad, were not on the western side when We revealed to Musa the commandment, and therefore, you were not among the witnesses. And you were not on this side of the mountain when We called, but a mercy from your Lord that you may warn a people to whom no warner came before you, that they may be mindful.
30. And were it not that there should befall them a disaster for what their hands have sent before, then they should say: “Our Lord! why didst Thou not send to us a messenger so that we should have followed Thy communications and been of the believers!”
31. But now when the truth has come to them from Us, they say: “Why is he not given the like of what was given to Musa?” What! did they not disbelieve in what Musa was given before? They say: “Two magicians backing up each other. Surely we are unbelievers in all”.
32. Say: “Then bring some other book from Allah which is a better guide than both of them, that I may follow it, if you are truthful”.
33. But if they do not answer you, then know that they only follow their low desires. Who is more erring than he who follows his low desires without any guidance from Allah? Surely Allah does not guide the unjust people. And certainly We have made the word to reach them so that they may be mindful.
34. As to those whom We gave the Book before it, they are believers in it. And when it is recited to them they say: “We believe in it surely it is the truth from our Lord; surely we were submitters before this”.
35. These shall be granted their reward twice, because they are steadfast and they repel evil with good and spend out of what We have given them. And when they hear idle talk they turn aside from it and say: “We shall have our deeds and you shall have your deeds. Peace be on you, we do not desire the ignorant”.
36. Surely you cannot guide whom you love, but Allah guides whom He pleases, and He knows best the followers of the right way.
37. And they say: “If we follow the guidance with you, we shall be carried off from our country”. What! have We not settled them in a safe, sacred territory to which fruits of every kind shall be drawn? A sustenance from Us; but most of them do not know.
38. And how many a town have We destroyed which exulted in its means of subsistence, so these are their abodes. They have not been dwelt in after them except a little, and We are the inheritors. And your Lord never destroy the towns until He raised in their metropolis a messenger, reciting to them Our communications, and We never destroyed the towns except when their people were unjust.
39. And whatever things you have been given are only a provision of this world’s life and its adornment, and whatever is with Allah is better and more lasting. Do you not then understand?
40. Are these two alike? - one to whom We have made a goodly promise and who is going to reach its fulfilment, and one to whom We have given the good things of this life, but who on the Day of Judgment, is to be among those brought up for punishment?
41. That Day Allah will call to them and say: “Where are those whom you deemed to be My associates?” Those against whom the sentence has become confirmed will say: “Our Lord! these are they whom we caused to err. We caused them to err as we ourselves did err. To Thee we declare ourselves to be clear of them. They never served Us”.
42. It will be said to them: “Call upon your ‘partners’ for help”. They will call upon them, but the 'partners' will not listen to them and they will see the Penalty before them. How they will wish: “If only they had been open to guidance!”
43. That Day Allah will call to them, and say: “What was the answer you gave to the messengers?”
44. Then the pleas shall become obscure to them, so they shall not ask each other. But any that had repented, believed, and worked righteousness, will have hopes to be among those who achieve salvation.
45. Allah creates and chooses whom He pleases. To choose is not theirs. Glory be to Allah and exalted be He above what they associate with Him. The Lord knows all that their hearts conceal and all that they reveal. And He is Allah. There is no god but He. To Him be praise, at the first and at the last, For Him is the Command, and to Him shall you all be brought back.
46. Say: “Tell me, if Allah were to make the night to continue incessantly on you till the day of resurrection, who is the god besides Allah that could bring you light? Do you not then hear?” Or say: “Tell me, if Allah were to make the day to continue incessantly on you till the day of resurrection, who is the god besides Allah that could bring you the night in which you take rest? Do you not then see?”
47. It is out of His Mercy that He has made for you Night and Day, that you may rest therein, and that you may seek of his Grace, and in order that you may be grateful.
48. The Day that He will call on them, He will say: “Where are my ‘partners’ whom you imagined to be such?”
49. And from each people shall We draw a witness, and We shall say: “Produce your Proof”. Then shall they know that the Truth is in Allah alone and the lies which they invented will leave them in lurch.
50. Surely Qaroun was of the people of Moses, but he rebelled against them. We had given him of the treasures, so much so that his hoards of wealth would certainly weigh down a company of men of great strength. His people said to him: “Do not exult, Allah does not love the exultant. And seek by means of what Allah has given you the future abode. And do not neglect your portion of this world and do good to others as Allah has done good to you, and do not seek to make mischief in the land, surely Allah does not love the mischief-makers”.
51. He said: “This has been given to me because of a certain knowledge which I have”. Did he not know that Allah had destroyed, before him, whole generations, which were superior to him in strength and greater in the amount of riches they had collected? But the wicked are not called immediately to account for their sins.
52. So he went forth among his people in the pride of his wordly glitter. Said those whose aim is the Life of this World: “Oh! that we had the like of what Qarun has got! for he is truly a lord of mighty good fortune!” But those who had been granted true knowledge said: “Alas for you! The reward of Allah in the Hereafter is best for those who believe and work righteousness. But this none shall attain, save those who steadfastly persevere in good”.
53. Then We caused the earth to swallow up him and his house and he had not the least little party to help him against Allah nor could he defend himself.
54. And those who had envied his position the day before began to say on the morrow: “Ah! it is indeed Allah Who enlarges the provision or restricts it, to any of His servants He pleases! Had it not been that Allah was gracious to us, He could have caused the earth to swallow us up! Ah! those who reject Allah will assuredly never prosper”.
55. That Home of the Hereafter We shall give to those who intend not high-handedness or mischief on earth. And the end is best for the righteous. If any does good, the reward to him is better than his deed. But if any does evil, the doers of evil are only punished to the extent of their deeds.
56. Most surely He Who has made the Quran binding on you will bring you back to the destination. Say: “My Lord knows best him who has brought the guidance and him who is in manifest error”.
57. And you did not expect that the Book would be inspired to you, but it is a mercy from your Lord. Therefore be not a backer-up of the unbelievers. And let them not turn you aside from the Signs of Allah after they have been revealed to you, and call men to your Lord and be not of the polytheists.
58. And call not with Allah any other god. There is no god but He. Every thing is perishable but He. His is the judgment, and to Him you shall be brought back.
