So We listened to him: We removed the distress that was on him, and We restored his people to him, and doubled their number,- as a Grace from Ourselves, and a thing for commemoration, for all who serve Us.

(It will be said:) "Thou wast heedless of this; now have We removed thy veil, and sharp is thy sight this Day!"

"Nay,- On Him would ye call, and if it be His will, He would remove (the distress) which occasioned your call upon Him, and ye would forget (the false gods) which ye join with Him!"

(They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"

Yet, when He removes the distress from you, behold! some of you turn to other gods to join with their Lord-

But every time We removed the penalty from them according to a fixed term which they had to fulfil,- Behold! they broke their word!

When trouble toucheth a man, He crieth unto Us (in all postures)- lying down on his side, or sitting, or standing. But when We have solved his trouble, he passeth on his way as if he had never cried to Us for a trouble that touched him! thus do the deeds of transgressors seem fair in their eyes!

Why was there not a single township (among those We warned), which believed,- so its faith should have profited it,- except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the penalty of ignominy in the life of the present, and permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while.

But when We removed the Penalty from them, behold, they broke their word.

Every time the penalty fell on them, they said: "O Moses! on your behalf call on thy Lord in virtue of his promise to thee: If thou wilt remove the penalty from us, we shall truly believe in thee, and we shall send away the Children of Israel with thee."

Say: "Call on those - besides Him - whom ye fancy: they have neither the power to remove your troubles from you nor to change them."

"If Allah touch thee with affliction, none can remove it but He; if He touch thee with happiness, He hath power over all things.

If Allah do touch thee with hurt, there is none can remove it but He: if He do design some benefit for thee, there is none can keep back His favour: He causeth it to reach whomsoever of His servants He pleaseth. And He is the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).

If indeed thou ask them who it is that created the heavens and the earth, they would be sure to say, "Allah". Say: "See ye then? the things that ye invoke besides Allah,- can they, if Allah wills some Penalty for me, remove His Penalty?- Or if He wills some Grace for me, can they keep back his Grace?" Say: "Sufficient is Allah for me! In Him trust those who put their trust."

Say: "See ye then? the things that ye invoke besides Allah,- can they, if Allah wills some Penalty for me, remove His Penalty?- Or if He wills some Grace for me, can they keep back his Grace?" Say: "Sufficient is Allah for me! In Him trust those who put their trust."

No (soul) but Allah can lay it bare.

She was asked to enter the lofty Palace: but when she saw it, she thought it was a lake of water, and she (tucked up her skirts), uncovering her legs. He said: "This is but a palace paved smooth with slabs of glass." She said: "O my Lord! I have indeed wronged my soul: I do (now) submit (in Islam), with Solomon, to the Lord of the Worlds."

If We had mercy on them and removed the distress which is on them, they would obstinately persist in their transgression, wandering in distraction to and fro.

Or, Who listens to the (soul) distressed when it calls on Him, and Who relieves its suffering, and makes you (mankind) inheritors of the earth? (Can there be another) god besides Allah? Little it is that ye heed!

The Day that the shin shall be laid bare, and they shall be summoned to bow in adoration, but they shall not be able,-

我就答应他的请求，而解除他所患的痼疾，并以他的家属和同样的人赏赐他，这是由于从我发出的恩惠和对于崇拜我者的记念。

你确忽视此事，现在我已揭开你的蒙蔽，所以你今日的眼光是锐利的。

不然，你们只祈祷真主；如果他意欲，他就解除你们祈求他解除的灾难，你们将忘却你们所用来配他的（一切偶像）。”

我们的主啊！求你为我们解除这种刑罚，我们确是信道的。”

然后，当他解除你们的患难的时候，你们中有一部分人，立刻以物配他们的主，

当我替他们暂时消除灾难的时候，他们忽然背约了。

当人遭遇灾害的时候，便卧著、或坐著、或站著向我祈祷。等我解除他们的灾害后，他们就继续作恶，彷佛不曾祈求我解除他们的灾害一样。过分的人们是这样为他们的行为所迷惑的。

为何没有一个城市的居民信仰正道，因而获得信道的裨益呢？但优努斯的宗族，当他们信道的时候，我曾为他们解除了今世生活中凌辱的刑罚，并使他们暂时享受。

当我解除他们所遭的刑罚的时候，他们立刻爽约。

当他们遭遇天灾的时候，他们说：“穆萨啊！你的主与你有约在先，请你祈祷他，如果你能替我们消除天灾，那末，我们就一定信仰你，一定释放以色列的后裔，让他们同你去。”

你说：“你们舍真主而称为神明者，你们祈祷他们吧！他们不能替你们消灾，也不能替你们嫁祸。

如果真主使你遭受灾难，那末，除他外绝无能解除的。如果他使你享受福利，（那末，任何人不能干涉他），因为他对于万事是全能的。

如果真主降一点灾害于你，那末，除他之外，绝无能解除灾害的。如果他欲降福利于你，那末，任何人也不能阻拦他的恩惠。他把那恩惠降于他所意欲的仆人。他是至赦的，是至慈的。”

我必定要暂时解除这种刑罚，你们必定复返于悖逆。

如果你问他们：”谁创造了天地？”他们必定说：“真主。”你说：“你们告诉我吧，你们舍真主而祈祷的那些偶像，如果真主欲加害于我，他们能解除他的伤害吗？如果真主欲施恩于我，他们能扣留他的恩惠吗？”你说：“真主是使我满足的，信任者只信任真主。”

如果你问他们：”谁创造了天地？”他们必定说：“真主。”你说：“你们告诉我吧，你们舍真主而祈祷的那些偶像，如果真主欲加害于我，他们能解除他的伤害吗？如果真主欲施恩于我，他们能扣留他的恩惠吗？”你说：“真主是使我满足的，信任者只信任真主。”

除真主外，没有能揭示它的。

有人对她说：“你进那宫殿去吧！”当她看见那座宫殿的时候她以为宫殿里是一片汪洋，（就提起衣裳）露出她的两条小腿。他说：“这确是用玻璃造成的光滑的宫殿。”她说：“我的主啊！我确是自欺的，我（现在）跟着素莱曼归顺真主--全世界的主。”

假若我怜悯他们，而且解除他们所遭的苦难，他们必固执横蛮， 而徘徘徊于歧途之中。

还是那答应受难者的祈祷，而解除其灾害，且以你们为大地的代治者呢？除真主外，难道还有应受崇拜的吗？你们很少觉悟。

在那日，大难将临头，他们将被召去叩头，而他们不能叩头。
