30:6The promise of God—God never breaks His promise, but most people do not know.

30:8Do they not reflect within themselves? God did not create the heavens and the earth, and what is between them, except with reason, and for a specific duration. But most people, regarding meeting their Lord, are disbelievers.

30:13They will have no intercessors from among their idols, and they will disown their partners.

30:15As for those who believed and did good deeds—they will be delighted in meadows.

30:24And of His signs is that He shows you the lightning, causing fear and hope. And He brings down water from the sky, and with it He revives the earth after it was dead. In this are signs for people who understand.

30:28He illustrates an example for you, from your own selves: do you make your servants full partners in the wealth We have given you? Do you revere them as you revere one another? We thus explain the revelations for a people who understand.

30:29Yet the wrongdoers follow their desires without knowledge. But who can guide whom God leaves astray? They will have no helpers.

30:30So devote yourself to the religion of monotheism—the natural instinct God has instilled in mankind. There is no altering God’s creation. This is the true religion, but most people do not know.

30:31Turning towards Him—and be conscious of Him, and perform the prayer, and do not be of the idolaters.

30:35Have We sent down to them any authority, which speaks in support of their idols?

30:37Do they not see that God expands the provision for whomever He wills, or restricts it? Surely in this are signs for people who believe.

30:40God is He who created you, then provides for you, then makes you die, then brings you back to life. Can any of your idols do any of that? Glorified is He, and Exalted above what they associate.

30:41Corruption has appeared on land and sea, because of what people’s hands have earned, in order to make them taste some of what they have done, so that they might return.

30:42Say, “Roam the earth, and observe the fate of those who came before. Most of them were idolaters.”

30:45So that He may reward those who have believed and done the righteous deeds out of His bounty. Indeed, He does not love the ungrateful.

30:49Although they were before this—before it was sent down upon them—in despair.

30:56But those endowed with knowledge and faith will say, “You remained in God’s Book until the Day of Resurrection. This is the Day of Resurrection, but you did not know.”

30:59God thus seals the hearts of those who do not know.

30:60So be patient. The promise of God is true. And do not let those who lack certainty belittle you.
