(They are explained in detail)
The Forty-First Surah of the Qur'aan

1. HMm.

[These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'n, and none but Allh (Alone) knows their meanings.]

2. A revelation from Allh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

3. A Book whereof the Verses are explained in detail; A Qur'n in Arabic for people who know.

4. Giving glad tidings [of Paradise to the one who believes in the Oneness of Allh (i.e. Islmic Monotheism) and fears Allh much (abstains from all kinds of sins and evil deeds) and loves Allh much (performing all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)], and warning (of punishment in the Hell Fire to the one who disbelieves in the Oneness of Allh), but most of them turn away, so they listen not.

5. And they say: "Our hearts are under coverings (screened) from that to which you invite us, and in our ears is deafness, and between us and you is a screen, so work you (on your way); verily, we are working (on our way)."

6. Say (O Muhammad ): "I am only a human being like you. It is inspired in me that your Ilh (God) is One Ilh (God - Allh), therefore take Straight Path to Him (with true Faith Islmic Monotheism) and obedience to Him, and seek forgiveness of Him. And woe to Al-Mushrikn (the disbelievers in the Oneness of Allh, polytheists, idolaters, etc. - see V.2:105).

7. Those who give not the Zakt and they are disbelievers in the Hereafter.

8. Truly, those who believe (in the Oneness of Allh Islmic Monotheism, and in His Messenger Muhammad ) and do righteous good deeds, for them will be an endless reward that will never stop (i.e. Paradise).

9. Say (O Muhammad ): "Do you verily disbelieve in Him Who created the earth in two Days and you set up rivals (in worship) with Him? That is the Lord of the 'Alamn (mankind, jinns and all that exists).

10. He placed therein (i.e. the earth) firm mountains from above it, and He blessed it, and measured therein its sustenance (for its dwellers) in four Days equal (i.e. all these four 'days' were equal in the length of time), for all those who ask (about its creation).

11. Then He Istaw (rose over) towards the heaven when it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth: "Come both of you willingly or unwillingly." They both said: "We come, willingly."

12. Then He completed and finished from their creation (as) seven heavens in two Days and He made in each heaven its affair. And We adorned the nearest (lowest) heaven with lamps (stars) to be an adornment as well as to guard (from the devils by using them as missiles against the devils). Such is the Decree of Him the All-Mighty, the All-Knower.

13. But if they turn away, then say (O Muhammad ): "I have warned you of a S'iqah (a destructive awful cry, torment, hit, a thunderbolt) like the S'iqah which overtook 'Ad and Thamd (people)."

14. When the Messengers came to them, from before them and behind them (saying): "Worship none but Allh" They said: "If our Lord had so willed, He would surely have sent down the angels. So indeed! We disbelieve in that with which you have been sent."

15. As for 'Ad, they were arrogant in the land without right, and they said: "Who is mightier than us in strength?" See they not that Allh, Who created them was mightier in strength than them. And they used to deny Our Ayt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, revelations, etc.)!

16. So We sent upon them furious wind in days of evil omen (for them) that We might give them a taste of disgracing torment in this present worldly life, but surely the torment of the Hereafter will be more disgracing, and they will never be helped.

17. And as for Thamd, We showed and made clear to them the Path of Truth (Islmic Monotheism) through Our Messenger, (i.e. showed them the way of success), but they preferred blindness to guidance, so the S'iqah (a destructive awful cry, torment, hit, a thunderbolt) of disgracing torment seized them, because of what they used to
