Al-Furqan, Surah The Criterion (Qur'an: Surat-25-Al-Furqan)

Bismillaah ir rahmaan ir raheem

25/Al-Furqan-1: Blessed is (Allah) Who sent down the Discernment upon His servant that he may be a Warner for the Worlds.

25/Al-Furqan-2: He (Allah), Whose is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, and Who has not taken a son, and Who has no partner in the Sovereignty. And He created everything, then ordained their destiny.

25/Al-Furqan-3: And they have taken besides Him gods, who cannot create anything while they are themselves created, and they possess themselves neither harm nor benefit, nor do they possess power of death nor of life nor of bringing back to life.

25/Al-Furqan-4: And those who disbelieve said: “This (Quran) is nothing but a lie which he has forged, and other tribes have helped him at it too”. So indeed they have come in with falsehood and tyranny.

25/Al-Furqan-5: And they said: “This (Quran) is the legends of the ancients, he has got them written (before) which were read out to him morning and evening”.

25/Al-Furqan-6: Say: “It (Qur’ân) has been sent down by Him Who knows the Secret of the heavens and the earth; surely He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful (the One that manifests with His Mercy attribute)”.

25/Al-Furqan-7: And they said: “What sort of messenger is this that he eats food and goes about in the markets? Why has not an angel been sent down to him, so that he should have been a Warner with him”?

25/Al-Furqan-8: Or a treasure should have been thrown (sent) down to him (from the sky), or he is made to have a garden from which he should eat. And the wrong-doers said: “You only follow (depend on) none but a man bewitched”.

25/Al-Furqan-9: See what likenesses do they apply to you, so they have remained in misguidance, therefore they have no power to (reach) the Way (of Allah).

25/Al-Furqan-10: Blessed is He Who, if He wills, will give you what is better than this, Gardens beneath which the rivers flow, and build palaces for you.

25/Al-Furqan-11: Nay, they denied the Hour (Doomsday), and We have prepared a flaming (Hell) Fire for those who deny the Hour.

25/Al-Furqan-12: When (Hell) saw them from a distance, they heard its vehement raging and roaring.

25/Al-Furqan-13: And when they were cast into a narrow place thereof, tied together, they asked for destruction (to disappear).

25/Al-Furqan-14: Do not ask this Day for destruction once, but ask many times.

25/Al-Furqan-15: Say: “Is this better or Eternal Heaven which those who have piety are promised which is a reward and a final destination for them”?

25/Al-Furqan-16: For them is in it what they desire permanently. This is a promise binding upon your Lord that He took upon Him.

25/Al-Furqan-17: And on that Day He shall gather them together, and whatever they served besides Allah, then He will say: “Was it you who made these My servants fall into misguidance, or did they themselves remain on the Way of misguidance?

25/Al-Furqan-18: (The idols) said: “Glory be to You; it is not beseeming for us that we should take any friends besides You. But You did give them and their fathers goods that they forgot Dhikr and became a people deserving of perdition.

25/Al-Furqan-19: Therefore (what you worshipped aside from Allah) belied you in what you have said. So you cannot avert (the torment) nor obtain help. And whoever among you becomes unjust, We will make him taste a great torment.

25/Al-Furqan-20: And We have not sent before you any Messengers but they most surely ate food and went about in the markets. And We have made some of you a mischief (trial) for others to see ‘if you bear patiently’! And your Lord is All-Seeing.

25/Al-Furqan-21: And We have not sent before you any Messengers but they most surely ate food and went about in the markets. And We have made some of you a mischief (trial) for others to see ‘if you bear patiently’! And your Lord is All-Seeing.

25/Al-Furqan-22: On that Day they shall see the angels, no glad tidings shall there be for the culprits on the Day of Permission. And (the angels) shall say (to them): “(glad tidings) is a forbidden thing totally prohibited (to you)”.

25/Al-Furqan-23: And We have cut off what they have done of deeds (We nullified their deeds), so We rendered them (their deeds) as scattered floating dust.

25/Al-Furqan-24: The dwellers of Heaven shall on the Day of Permission be in a better abiding place and a fairest resting-place.

25/Al-Furqan-25: And on the Day when the sky was split with clouds, the angels were sent down in lines.

25/Al-Furqan-26: The Sovereignty on the Day of Permission is true for the Most-Beneficent, and it is a hard Day for the disbelievers.

25/Al-Furqan-27: And on that Day the wrong-doer bites his hands and says: “O! I wish I had taken a Way (that goes to Allah) with the Messenger”.

25/Al-Furqan-28: O woe to me! I wish I had not taken such an such for a friend!

25/Al-Furqan-29: He indeed led me astray from the Remembrance (Dhikr) after it (the Knowledge in the Qur’ân) had come to me; and Satan is the one who prevents human from help.

25/Al-Furqan-30: And the Messenger said: “My Lord! Surely my people deserted this Qur’ân (My people have departed from the Qur’ân).

25/Al-Furqan-31: And thus have We made for every prophet an enemy from the culprits and Sufficient is your Lord as the One Who delivers to Hidayet and as a Helper.

25/Al-Furqan-32: And those who disbelieve said: “Should not the Qur’ân have been sent down upon him all at once”? This is that We may fix it (the Qur’ân) to your comprehension. And We have explained (read) it arranging in parts.

25/Al-Furqan-33: And they have not brought to you an affair but what We delivered to you with the truth and the best commentary.

25/Al-Furqan-34: Those who shall be gathered on their faces to Hell, they are in a worse plight and straying farther away from the Way (who have remained in misguidance).

25/Al-Furqan-35: And certainly We gave Moses the Book (the Torah) and We appointed with him his brother Aaron as a helper (supporter).

25/Al-Furqan-36: Then We said: “Go to the people who belied Our Verses!” After that We destroyed them with utter destruction.

25/Al-Furqan-37: And the people of Noah (Nûh), when they belied the Messengers, We drowned them, and made them a Sign (example) for the mankind. And We have prepared a painful torment for the wrongdoers.

25/Al-Furqan-38: And Âd and Thamûd and the dwellers of Ar-Rass and many generations (who had lived) between them (We destroyed).

25/Al-Furqan-39: To each of them We gave similitudes, and each of them We caused to perish utterly.

25/Al-Furqan-40: And certainly they came to the town on which was rained an evil rain. Did they not then see it? Nay! They did not hope to be resurrected.

25/Al-Furqan-41: And when they see you, they do not take you for anything but a mockery, saying: “Is this he whom Allah has sent forth to be a Messenger”?

25/Al-Furqan-42: “He would have nearly misled us from our gods, if we had not adhered to him patiently”! And they will know, when they see the torment, who is strayed farther off from the Way.

25/Al-Furqan-43: Have you seen him who took his low desires for his god? Will you then be a surrogate to him?

25/Al-Furqan-44: Or do you think that most of them do hear and (therefore) comprehend? They are only like animals. Nay, they are even straying farther off from the Way (of Allah).

25/Al-Furqan-45: Have you not seen how your Lord extended the shade? And if He had willed, He would certainly have made it stationary. Then We have made the sun an indication (a guide) to it (shade).

25/Al-Furqan-46: Then We took it to ourselves, shrinking little by little.

25/Al-Furqan-47: And He it is Who made the night a covering for you, and the sleep a time to rest. And He (also) made the day a time to work.

25/Al-Furqan-48: And He it is Who sends the winds as heralds of glad tidings before His Mercy. And We have sent down pure water from the sky.

25/Al-Furqan-49: (That) We may give life thereby to a dead land and give it for drink, out of what We have created, to many animals and people.

25/Al-Furqan-50: And indeed We have distributed (explained in detail) it (rain, mercy, virtue and benediction) amongst them in order that they may deliberate. But most of mankind only resisted denying.

25/Al-Furqan-51: And if We had willed, We would certainly have sent a Warner to every town.

25/Al-Furqan-52: So do not obey the disbelievers, and fight with a mighty fight against them with it (the Qur’ân).

25/Al-Furqan-53: And it is He Who has let free the two seas; one delicious and sweet, and the other salty and bitter. Between the two He has made a barrier and inviolable obstruction (for them not to mix).

25/Al-Furqan-54: And He it is Who has created mankind from the water, then He has made for him kindred by blood and kindred by marriage. And your Lord is Omnipotent.

25/Al-Furqan-55: And they worship besides Allah that which neither profits them nor causes them harm. And the disbeliever backed Satan up against his Lord.

25/Al-Furqan-56: And We have sent you only as a bearer of glad tidings and a Warner.

25/Al-Furqan-57: Say: “I do not ask of you any wage for it (conveyance) except that whosoever wills may take a Way to his Lord.

25/Al-Furqan-58: And put your trust in the Ever-Living One Who does not die, and glorify with His Praise and Sufficient for Him Being All-Aware of the sins of His servants.

25/Al-Furqan-59: It is He Who created the heavens and the earth, and what is between them in Six Days. Then the Most Beneficent rose beyond existence. So ask the informed one (Gabriel) of this.

25/Al-Furqan-60: And when it was said to them: “Prostrate yourselves to the Most Beneficent”, they said: “What is the Most Beneficent? Shall we prostrate ourselves to what you command us”? And it (this command) increased them in aversion.

25/Al-Furqan-61: Blessed be He Who has made in the sky constellations and has set there the moon as an illuminating lamp.

25/Al-Furqan-62: And He it is Who has made the night and the day a succession for those who yearn to remember or be thankful.

25/Al-Furqan-63: And the servants of the Most Beneficent walk on the earth in humility and when the ignorant address them, they say: “Peace”!

25/Al-Furqan-64: And they who pass the night prostrating themselves and standing before their Lord.

25/Al-Furqan-65: And they say: “Our Lord! Keep the torment of Hell away from us, surely the torment of it is permanently destructive.

25/Al-Furqan-66: Surely it is an evil abode as and a residence.

25/Al-Furqan-67: And when they spend, they are neither extravagant nor parsimonious. And they keep between these two on a middle path.

25/Al-Furqan-68: And they do not worship another god with Allah; nor kill someone, which Allah has forbidden except for just cause and do not commit adultery. And he who does these meets a punishment of sin.

25/Al-Furqan-69: The torment shall be multiplied to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he shall abide therein forever in abasement.

25/Al-Furqan-70: Except him who repents (before the saint guide, the Murshid) and becomes a believer (whose Faith has increased as ‘Faith’ has been written into his soul’s heart) and does improving deeds (does the soul’s cleansing); so these are they of whom Allah changes the evil deeds into merits. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful (the One who sends His glorious lights of mercy).

25/Al-Furqan-71: And whoever repents (before his Murshid) and does improving deeds (does the soul’s cleansing), he surely reaches Allah as the one whose repentance has been accepted (his spirit reaches Allah while he is alive).

25/Al-Furqan-72: And they who do not bear false witness, and when they pass by idle chatter, they pass by nobly (with dignity).

25/Al-Furqan-73: And when they are reminded of the Verses of their Lord, they do not fall down at them deaf and blind.

25/Al-Furqan-74: And they say: “Our Lord! Bestow upon us spouses and our offspring the delight of our eyes, and make us Imams (religious leaders) to the owners of piety”.
