Surah 46. Al-Ahqaf

In the name of ALLAH, the Benevolent, the Merciful

1. Ha. Mim.
2. The Revelation of The Book from ALLAH the Mighty, the Wise.
3. We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them save with truth, and for a term appointed. But those who deny turn away from that whereof they are warned.
4. Say: Have you thought on all that you invoke beside ALLAH? Show me what they have created of the earth. Or have they any portion the heavens? Bring me a Scripture before this, or some vestige of knowledge, if you are truthful.
5. And who is further astray than those who, instead of ALLAH, pray to such as hear not their prayer until the Day of Resurrection, and are unconscious of their prayer,
6. And when mankind are gathered will become enemies for them, and will become deniers of having been worshipped?
7. And when Our clear Signs are recited to them, those who deny say of the Truth when it reaches them: This is mere magic.
8. Or say they: He has invented it? Say: If I have invented it, still you have no power to support me against ALLAH. He is best aware of what you say among yourselves concerning it. He suffices for a witness between me and you. And He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.

9. Say: I am no invention of the messengers, and I don't know what He will do with me, nor with you. I follow not but what is sent down to me and I am not but a plain warning.

10. Think: If it is from ALLAH and you deny, and a witness of the Children of Israel has already testified to the like thereof and has believed, and you are too proud? Lo! ALLAH, Guides not wrong doing folk.
