23:1Successful are the believers.

23:2Those who are humble in their prayers.

23:6Except from their spouses, or their dependents—for then they are free from blame.

23:7But whoever seeks anything beyond that—these are the transgressors.

23:8Those who are faithful to their trusts and pledges.

23:10These are the inheritors.

23:17We created above you seven pathways, and We are never heedless of the creation.

23:18And We sent down water from the sky in proper quantity, and settled it in the ground, and We are Able to take it away.

23:22And on them, and on the ships, you are transported.

23:27So We inspired him: “Build the Ark under Our observation and by Our inspiration. And when Our decree comes to pass, and the oven boils over, load into it two pairs of every kind, together with your family, except those of them against whom the word has already been pronounced. And do not speak to me concerning those who did wrong; for they are to be drowned.”

23:28Then, when you and those with you are settled in the Ark, say, “Praise be to God, who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.”

23:29And say, “My Lord, land me with a blessed landing, as you are the best of transporters.”

23:30Surely in that are signs. We are always testing.

23:36Farfetched, farfetched is what you are promised.

23:37There is nothing but our life in this world. We die, and we live, and we are not resurrected.

23:47They said, “Are we to believe in two mortals like us, and their people are our slaves?”

23:51O messengers, eat of the good things, and act with integrity. I am aware of what you do.

23:57Those who, from awe of their Lord, are fearful.

23:63But their hearts are puzzled because of this; and they have deeds that do not conform to this, which they continue to perpetrate.

23:69Or is it that they did not recognize their messenger, so they are denying him?

23:72Or are you asking them for a payment? The revenue from your Lord is better, and He is the Best of providers.

23:73You are inviting them to a straight path.

23:74But those who do not believe in the Hereafter are swerving from the path.

23:83We were promised this before—we and our ancestors—these are nothing but legends of the ancients.”

23:89They will say, “To God.” Say, “Then are you bewitched?”

23:90In fact, We have given them the truth, and they are liars.

23:93Say, “My Lord, if You would show me what they are promised.

23:95We are surely Able to show you what We promise them.

23:96Repel evil by what is better. We are aware of what they describe.

23:100That I may do right in what I have neglected.” By no means! It is just a word that he utters. And behind them is a barrier, until the Day they are resurrected.

23:102Those whose scales are heavy—those are the successful.

23:103But those whose scales are light—those are they who have lost their souls; in Hell they will dwell forever.

23:109There was a group of My servants who would say, `Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us, and have mercy on us; You are the Best of the merciful.'

23:111Today, I have rewarded them for their endurance. They are the ones who are the triumphant.”

23:118And say, “My Lord, forgive and have mercy, for You are the Best of the merciful.”
