27:3Those who observe the prayers, and give charity regularly, and are certain of the Hereafter.

27:5It is they who will receive the grievous punishment—and in the Hereafter they will be the greatest losers.

27:7When Moses said to his family, “I have glimpsed a fire. I will bring you some news from it; or bring you a firebrand, that you may warm yourselves.”

27:8Then, when he reached it, he was called: “Blessed is He who is within the fire, and He who is around it, and glorified be God, Lord of the Worlds.

27:9O Moses, it is I, God, the Almighty, the Wise.

27:10Throw down your staff.” But when he saw it quivering, as though it were a demon, he turned around not looking back. “O Moses, do not fear; the messengers do not fear in My presence.

27:11But whoever has done wrong, and then substituted goodness in place of evil. I am Forgiving and Merciful.

27:12Put your hand inside your pocket, and it will come out white, without blemish—among nine miracles to Pharaoh and his people, for they are immoral people.”

27:13Yet when Our enlightening signs came to them, they said, “This is obvious witchcraft.”

27:17To the service of Solomon were mobilized his troops of sprites, and men, and birds—all held in strict order.

27:18Until, when they came upon the Valley of Ants, an ant said, “O ants! Go into your nests, lest Solomon and his troops crush you without noticing.”

27:19He smiled and laughed at her words, and said, “My Lord, direct me to be thankful for the blessings you have bestowed upon me and upon my parents, and to do good works that please You. And admit me, by Your grace, into the company of Your virtuous servants.”

27:22But he did not stay for long. He said, “I have learnt something you did not know. I have come to you from Sheba, with reliable information.

27:28Go with this letter of mine, and deliver it to them; then withdraw from them, and see how they respond.”

27:30It is from Solomon, and it is, ‘In the Name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.

27:34She said, “When kings enter a city, they devastate it, and subjugate its dignified people. Thus they always do.

27:36When he came to Solomon, he said, “Are you supplying me with money? What God has given me is better than what He has given you. It is you who delight in your gift.

27:37Go back to them. We will come upon them with troops they cannot resist; and we will expel them from there, disgraced and humiliated.”

27:39An imp of the sprites said, “I will bring it to you before you rise from your seat. I am strong and reliable enough to do it.”

27:40He who had knowledge from the Book said, “I will bring it to you before your glance returns to you.” And when he saw it settled before him, he said, “This is from the grace of my Lord, to test me, whether I am grateful or ungrateful. He who is grateful, his gratitude is to his own credit; but he who is ungrateful—my Lord is Independent and Generous.”

27:42When she arrived, it was said, “Is your throne like this?” She said, “As if this is it.” “We were given knowledge before her, and we were submissive.”

27:44It was said to her, “Go inside the palace.” And when she saw it, she thought it was a deep pond, and she bared her legs. He said, “It is a palace paved with glass.” She said, “My Lord, I have done wrong to myself, and I have submitted with Solomon, to God, Lord of the Worlds.”

27:47They said, “We consider you an ill omen, and those with you.” He said, “Your omen is with God. In fact, you are a people being tested.”

27:48In the city was a gang of nine who made mischief in the land and did no good.

27:49They said, “Swear by God to one another that we will attack him and his family by night, and then tell his guardian, 'We did not witness the murder of his family, and we are being truthful.'“

27:52Here are their homes, in ruins, on account of their iniquities. Surely in this is a sign for people who know.

27:54And Lot, when he said to his people, “Do you commit lewdness with open eyes?

27:60Or, who created the heavens and the earth, and rains down water from the sky for you? With it We produce gardens full of beauty, whose trees you could not have produced. Is there another god with God? But they are a people who equate.

27:61Or, who made the earth habitable, and made rivers flow through it, and set mountains on it, and placed a partition between the two seas? Is there another god with God? But most of them do not know.

27:62Or, who answers the one in need when he prays to Him, and relieves adversity, and makes you successors on earth? Is there another god with God? How hardly you pay attention.

27:63Or, who guides you through the darkness of land and sea, and who sends the winds as heralds of His mercy? Is there another god with God? Most exalted is God, above what they associate.

27:64Or, who originates the creation and then repeats it, and who gives you livelihood from the sky and the earth? Is there another god with God? Say, “Produce your evidence, if you are truthful.”

27:66In fact, their knowledge of the Hereafter is confused. In fact, they are in doubt about it. In fact, they are blind to it.

27:73Your Lord is gracious towards humanity, but most of them are not thankful.

27:75There is no mystery in the heaven and the earth, but it is in a Clear Book.

27:77And it is guidance and mercy for the believers.

27:83On the Day when We gather from every community a group of those who rejected Our revelations; and they will be restrained.

27:84Until, when they arrive, He will say, “Did you reject My revelations without comprehending them? Or what is it you were doing?”

27:86Do they not see that We made the night for them to rest therein, and the day for visibility? Surely in that are signs for people who believe.

27:87On the Day when the Trumpet is blown, everyone in the heavens and the earth will be horrified, except whomever God wills; and everyone will come before Him in humility.

27:89Whoever brings a virtue will receive better than it—and they will be safe from the horrors of that Day.

27:91“I was commanded to worship the Lord of this town, who has sanctified it, and to Whom everything belongs; and I was commanded to be of those who submit.
