the one in whom hope was placed
our forefathers worshipped?
for the Command of Allah -
surely, would have been decreed
(for the) meeting (with) Us,
they have become arrogant
And the angels will be on its sides, and eight will, that Day, bear the Throne of thy Lord above them.
They said: "Keep him and his brother in suspense (for a while); and send to the cities men to collect-
They said: "Keep him and his brother in suspense (for a while), and dispatch to the Cities heralds to collect-
They said: "O Salih! thou hast been of us! a centre of our hopes hitherto! dost thou (now) forbid us the worship of what our fathers worshipped? But we are really in suspicious (disquieting) doubt as to that to which thou invitest us."
There are (yet) others, held in suspense for the command of Allah, whether He will punish them, or turn in mercy to them: and Allah is All-Knowing, Wise.
"'What is the matter with you, that ye place not your hope for kindness and long-suffering in Allah,-
And thou hadst not expected that the Book would be sent to thee except as a Mercy from thy Lord: Therefore lend not thou support in any way to those who reject (Allah's Message).
And thou hadst not expected that the Book would be sent to thee except as a Mercy from thy Lord: Therefore lend not thou support in any way to those who reject (Allah's Message).
And even if thou hast to turn away from them in pursuit of the Mercy from thy Lord which thou dost expect, yet speak to them a word of easy kindness.
And even if thou hast to turn away from them in pursuit of the Mercy from thy Lord which thou dost expect, yet speak to them a word of easy kindness.
Thou mayest defer (the turn of) any of them that thou pleasest, and thou mayest receive any thou pleasest: and there is no blame on thee if thou invite one whose (turn) thou hadst set aside. This were nigher to the cooling of their eyes, the prevention of their grief, and their satisfaction - that of all of them - with that which thou hast to give them: and Allah knows (all) that is in your hearts: and Allah is All-Knowing, Most Forbearing.

To the Madyan (people) (We sent) their brother Shu'aib. Then he said: "O my people! serve Allah, and fear the Last Day: nor commit evil on the earth, with intent to do mischief."
And slacken not in following up the enemy: If ye are suffering hardships, they are suffering similar hardships; but ye have Hope from Allah, while they have none. And Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom.
Those whom they call upon do desire (for themselves) means of access to their Lord, - even those who are nearest: they hope for His Mercy and fear His Wrath: for the Wrath of thy Lord is something to take heed of.
Is one who worships devoutly during the hour of the night prostrating himself or standing (in adoration), who takes heed of the Hereafter, and who places his hope in the Mercy of his Lord - (like one who does not)? Say: "Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition.
Those who believed and those who suffered exile and fought (and strove and struggled) in the path of Allah,- they have the hope of the Mercy of Allah: And Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
And slacken not in following up the enemy: If ye are suffering hardships, they are suffering similar hardships; but ye have Hope from Allah, while they have none. And Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom.
Those who rest not their hope on their meeting with Us, but are pleased and satisfied with the life of the present, and those who heed not Our Signs,-
If Allah were to hasten for men the ill (they have earned) as they would fain hasten on the good,- then would their respite be settled at once. But We leave those who rest not their hope on their meeting with Us, in their trespasses, wandering in distraction to and fro.
But when Our Clear Signs are rehearsed unto them, those who rest not their hope on their meeting with Us, Say: "Bring us a reading other than this, or change this," Say: "It is not for me, of my own accord, to change it: I follow naught but what is revealed unto me: if I were to disobey my Lord, I should myself fear the penalty of a Great Day (to come)."
Such as fear not the meeting with Us (for Judgment) say: "Why are not the angels sent down to us, or (why) do we not see our Lord?" Indeed they have an arrogant conceit of themselves, and mighty is the insolence of their impiety!
And the (Unbelievers) must indeed have passed by the town on which was rained a shower of evil: did they not then see it (with their own eyes)? But they fear not the Resurrection.
Those who rehearse the Book of Allah, establish regular Prayer, and spend (in Charity) out of what We have provided for them, secretly and openly, hope for a commerce that will never fail:
Tell those who believe, to forgive those who do not look forward to the Days of Allah: It is for Him to recompense (for good or ill) each People according to what they have earned.
For that they used not to fear any account (for their deeds),
Say: "I am but a man like yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your Allah is one Allah: whoever expects to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness, and, in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as partner.
For those whose hopes are in the meeting with Allah (in the Hereafter, let them strive); for the term (appointed) by Allah is surely coming and He hears and knows (all things).
Ye have indeed in the Messenger of Allah a beautiful pattern (of conduct) for any one whose hope is in Allah and the Final Day, and who engages much in the Praise of Allah.
There was indeed in them an excellent example for you to follow,- for those whose hope is in Allah and in the Last Day. But if any turn away, truly Allah is Free of all Wants, Worthy of all Praise.

你们怎么不希望真主的尊重呢?

他们所称为神明者,自身求近主之阶。比他们更近于主者也求近主之阶,他们希望主的恩惠,畏惧主的刑罚。你的主的刑罚是应该防备的。
(景况更好的,是你呢?)还是在夜间专心事主,叩头立正,谨防后世,希望主恩的人呢?”你说:“有知识的与无知识的相等吗?惟有理智的人能觉悟。”
信道的人,离别故乡并且为主道而奋斗的人,这等人他们的确希望真主的慈恩。真主是至赦的,是至慈的。
你们对于追逐敌人。不要懈怠;如果你们感到痛苦,那末,他们确是象你们一样感到痛苦的;你们希望从真主那里获得他们所不能希望的报酬,真主是全知的,是至睿的。
不希望与我相会,只愿永享今世生活,而且安然享受的人,以及忽视我的种种迹象的人,
假若真主为世人速降灾害,犹如他们急于求福那样,他们的大限必已判定了。但我任随那些不希望与我相会的人徘徊于其残暴之中。
有人对他们宣读我的明显的迹象的时候,那些不希望会见我的人说:“请你另拿一部《古兰经》来,或者请你修改这部《古兰经》。”你说:“我不至于擅自修改它。我只能遵从我所受的启示。如果我违抗我的主,我的确畏惧重大日的刑罚。”
不希望与我相会者曾说:“怎么不使众天神降临我们,或者得见我们的主呢?”他们确已妄自尊大,确已大逆不道。
他们确已经历那遭恶雨的城市,难道他们没有看见它吗?不然, 他们不希望复活。
诵读真主的经典,且谨守拜功,并秘密地或公开地分舍我所赐予他们的财物者,他们希望这经营不破产,
你对信道者说,要赦宥不怕真主的气运的人们,以便真主因民众的善行而赐以报酬。
他们的确不怕清算,
你说:“我只是一个同你们一样的凡人,我奉的启示是:你们所应当崇拜的,只是一个主宰,故谁希望与他的主相会,就叫谁力行善功,叫谁不要以任何物与他的主受同样的崇拜。”
凡希望会见真主者,谁都应当知道真主的期限是必定降临的,真主确是全聪的,确是全知的。
希望真主和末日,并且多多记念真主者,你们有使者可以作你们的优良模范。
易卜拉欣和他的教徒,对於你们希望会见真主和末日者,确是好模范。背叛者,无损於真主,因为真主确是无求的,确是可颂的。
