71|1|Inna arsalna noohan ila qawmihi an anthir qawmaka min qabli an yatiyahum AAathabun aleemun

71|1|We sent Noah to his people (saying), `Warn your people before a grievous punishment comes upon them.'

71|4|`(If you do so,) He will protect you from (the commitment of sins and also the punishment of) your sins. And (by prolonging your lives) He will grant you reprieve till an appointed term. Verily, the time (of the divine decree) appointed by Allâh cannot be held back once it falls due. If only you had been possessor of true knowledge (you would have known this).'

71|5|Qala rabbi innee daAAawtu qawmee laylan wanaharan

71|5|(Then seeing his people's persistent denial) he (-Noah) said (at long last), `My Lord! I have called my people (to You) day in and day out,

71|7|Wainnee kullama daAAawtuhum litaghfira lahum jaAAaloo asabiAAahum fee athanihim waistaghshaw thiyabahum waasarroo waistakbaroo istikbaran

71|7|`As often as I called them to You so that You might protect them (against the commitment of further sins and also against the evil consequences of their sins) they plugged their ears with their fingers, and drew their cloaks around them (and thus covered their hearts), and persisted (in their stubbornness and denial) and behaved in an extremely insolent manner.

71|8|`Then I invited them (to You) openly.

71|9|Thumma innee aAAlantu lahum waasrartu lahum israran

71|13|Ma lakum la tarjoona lillahi waqaran

71|13|(And so did Prophet Muhammad said,) `People! what is wrong with you that you have no (faith in the Majesty of Allâh and no) hopes for (being granted) honour and greatness from Allâh.

71|14|Waqad khalaqakum atwaran

71|21|Noah said, `My Lord! they (- my people) have disobeyed me. They follow (such leaders) whose wealth and children only add to their loss.'

71|22|Wamakaroo makran kubbaran

71|22|They have devised a mighty and heinous plan (against the Prophet),

71|23|Waqaloo la tatharunna alihatakum wala  tatharunna waddan wala suwaAAan wala yaghootha wayaAAooqa wanasran

71|23|And they say (one to another), `Never abandon your gods; neither abandon Wadd (their idol in the form of man), nor Suwâ` (- in that of a woman), nor (should you abandon) Yaghûth (- in that of a lion), and Ya`ûq (- in that of a horse) and Nasr (- in that of an eagle).

71|24|Waqad adalloo katheeran wala tazidi alththalimeena illa dalalan

71|24|(Thereupon the Prophet prayed, `(Lord!) and indeed they have led many people astray, and add to the disappointment of these wrongdoers.

72|1|Say, `It has been revealed to me that a party of the jinn (- the non-Arab Jews of Nasîbîn, called Jinn because of their being strong, sharp and effective in affairs) listened (to the Qur'ân), so they said (to their people on their return), "Surely, we have heard a wonderful Qur'ân,

72|2|Yahdee ila alrrushdi faamanna bihi walan nushrika birabbina ahadan

72|2|"It guides towards righteousness, so we declare our faith in it. We shall no longer worship any god besides our Lord.

72|6|Waannahu kana rijalun mina alinsi yaAAoothoona birijalin mina aljinni fazadoohum rahaqan

72|6|"The fact is that some humble and lowly men from among the common folk used to seek refuge with some (big and influential) men from among the jinns and (thus) they increased these (jinns) in arrogance (and conceit).

 72|7|Waannahum thannoo kama thanantum an lan yabAAatha Allahu ahadan

72|7|"These men (from the jinn) believed even as you believe that Allâh would raise no one (as Messenger).

72|8|"And we (- the non-Arab Jews, the jinn who had listened to the Qur'ân, as diviners and astrologers) had primarily sought to probe the secrets of space above but we found it teeming with strong guards and shooting stars (a phenomenon which generally occurs before the advent of a divine Reformer).

72|13|"No sooner did we hear the guidance (contained in the Qur'ân) than we believed in it. And he who believes in His Lord does not have to fear that his reward will be reduced or injustice will be (done to him).

72|14|"And some of us submit (to the will of God) while some of us are deviators (from the right course)".' (It has also been revealed to the Prophet that) those who submit (to God's commandments) are actually those who earnestly aim at the right way and find it out;

72|15|Waama alqasitoona fakanoo lijahannama hataban

72|15|And that the deviators from the right course are the fuel of Gehenna.

72|17|Linaftinahum feehi waman yuAArid AAan thikri rabbihi yaslukhu AAathaban saAAadan

72|17|With the result that (in that case) We will thereby purify them thoroughly and well. And he who turns away from the remembrance of his Lord, He will drive him into an overwhelmingly stern punishment.

72|18|Waanna almasajida lillahi fala tadAAoo maAAa Allahi ahadan

72|18|And that the mosques are meant for (the worship of) Allâh, so call on no one (therein) beside Allâh.

 72|19|Waannahu lamma qama AAabdu Allahi yadAAoohu kadoo yakoonoona AAalayhi libadan

72|19|And when (- Muhammad) Allâh's servant stands up calling to Him these (- disbelievers) crowd upon him, well nigh suffocating him (to stifle and smother his voice).

72|24|(They will continue to oppose the Prophet) until they see that (punishment) they are threatened with. And soon they will know who is weaker in respect of helpers and less in numbers.

73|7|Indeed, you have a long (chain of) engagements during the day.

73|20|Surely, your Lord knows that you remain standing (to say Night Prayers) for nearly two thirds of the night and (sometimes) half or one third of it; and so does a party of those (of your believing Companions) who are with you. And Allâh determines the night and the day (- sometime the nights are long and sometime they are short and sometime the day and the night are equal). He knows that you (- the Muslims in general) will not be able to keep up so long a vigil (to say Night Prayer). He has, therefore, turned to you with mercy. Recite then, as much of the Qur'ân (in your Night Prayer) as is easily possible. He knows that some of you may be taken ill and others may be moving about in the land seeking Allâh's bounty, and still others who may be fighting for the cause of Allâh, so (O Muslims!) recite as much of it (- the Qur'ân) as is easily possible (for you). You shall, however, observe Prayer (regularly five times a day in all events). And go on presenting Zakât and set apart a goodly portion (of your possessions to give for (the sake of) Allâh. And whatever good you send on before for yourselves, you will find it with Allâh as the best of things meriting the greatest reward. And seek protection of Allâh. Verily, Allâh is All-Protecting, Ever Merciful.

74|23|Then he turned back (in scorn) and waxed proud,

 74|24|Faqala in hatha illa sihrun yutharu

74|24|And said, `This (Qur'ân) is nothing but an age long magic handed down (by tradition).

74|31|None but angels have We appointed as wardens of the Hell-fire. We have fixed their number in order to purify (and purge) the sins of those who disbelieve. The result of this is that the people of the Scripture will be convinced, and those who believe will increase in faith (and act with righteousness). And those who have been given the Scriptures as well as the believers may (both) attain certainty (and will not be misguided). And the people with diseased hearts and the disbelievers will say, `What does Allâh mean by such an illustration?' Thus does Allâh forsake him who wishes (to go astray), and guides him who wishes (to be guided). And none knows (the number) of the hosts of your Lord but He. And this (Qur'ân) is nothing but a means for human beings to rise to eminence.
