And remember Abraham and Isma'il raised the foundations of the House (With this prayer): "Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us: For Thou art the All-Hearing, the All-knowing.

And those who followed would say: "If only We had one more chance, We would clear ourselves of them, as they have cleared themselves of us." Thus will Allah show them (The fruits of) their deeds as (nothing but) regrets. Nor will there be a way for them out of the Fire.

Say: "O people of the Book! Do ye disapprove of us for no other reason than that we believe in Allah, and the revelation that hath come to us and that which came before (us), and (perhaps) that most of you are rebellious and disobedient?"

We saved him and those who adhered to him. By Our mercy, and We cut off the roots of those who rejected Our signs and did not believe.

"But thou dost wreak thy vengeance on us simply because we believed in the Signs of our Lord when they reached us! Our Lord! pour out on us patience and constancy, and take our souls unto thee as Muslims (who bow to thy will)!

And Moses chose seventy of his people for Our place of meeting: when they were seized with violent quaking, he prayed: "O my Lord! if it had been Thy will Thou couldst have destroyed, long before, both them and me: wouldst Thou destroy us for the deeds of the foolish ones among us? this is no more than Thy trial: by it Thou causest whom Thou wilt to stray, and Thou leadest whom Thou wilt into the right path. Thou art our Protector: so forgive us and give us Thy mercy; for Thou art the best of those who forgive.

If We give man a taste of Mercy from Ourselves, and then withdraw it from him, behold! he is in despair and (falls into) blasphemy.

Forthwith he (starts) constructing the Ark: Every time that the chiefs of his people passed by him, they threw ridicule on him. He said: "If ye ridicule us now, we (in our turn) can look down on you with ridicule likewise!

The word came: "O Noah! Come down (from the Ark) with peace from Us, and blessing on thee and on some of the peoples (who will spring) from those with thee: but (there will be other) peoples to whom We shall grant their pleasures (for a time), but in the end will a grievous penalty reach them from Us."

The word came: "O Noah! Come down (from the Ark) with peace from Us, and blessing on thee and on some of the peoples (who will spring) from those with thee: but (there will be other) peoples to whom We shall grant their pleasures (for a time), but in the end will a grievous penalty reach them from Us."

So when Our decree issued, We saved Hud and those who believed with him, by (special) Grace from Ourselves: We saved them from a severe penalty.

When Our Decree issued, We saved Salih and those who believed with him, by (special) Grace from Ourselves - and from the Ignominy of that day. For thy Lord - He is the Strong One, and able to enforce His Will.

When Our decree issued, We saved Shu'aib and those who believed with him, by (special) mercy from Ourselves: But the (mighty) blast did seize the wrong-doers, and they lay prostrate in their homes by the morning,-

They said: "Truly Joseph and his brother are loved more by our father than we: But we are a goodly body! really our father is obviously wandering (in his mind)!

Now when they returned to their father, they said: "O our father! No more measure of grain shall we get (unless we take our brother): So send our brother with us, that we may get our measure; and we will indeed take every care of him."

Allah sets forth the Parable (of two men: one) a slave under the dominion of another; He has no power of any sort; and (the other) a man on whom We have bestowed goodly favours from Ourselves, and he spends thereof (freely), privately and publicly: are the two equal? (By no means;) praise be to Allah. But most of them understand not.

He said: "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us':It is a matter (so) decreed."

Or have they gods that can guard them from Us? They have no power to aid themselves, nor can they be defended from Us.

Those for whom the good (record) from Us has gone before, will be removed far therefrom.

(It will be said): "Groan not in supplication this day: for ye shall certainly not be helped by Us.

We bestowed Grace aforetime on David from ourselves: "O ye Mountains! Sing ye back the Praises of Allah with him! and ye birds (also)! And We made the iron soft for him;-

Now, when trouble touches man, he cries to Us: But when We bestow a favour upon him as from Ourselves, he says, "This has been given to me because of a certain knowledge (I have)!" Nay, but this is but a trial, but most of them understand not!

Now the 'Ad behaved arrogantly through the land, against (all) truth and reason, and said: "Who is superior to us in strength?" What! did they not see that Allah, Who created them, was superior to them in strength? But they continued to reject Our Signs!

To Him is referred the Knowledge of the Hour (of Judgment: He knows all): No date-fruit comes out of its sheath, nor does a female conceive (within her womb) nor bring forth the Day that (Allah) will propound to them the (question), "Where are the partners (ye attributed to Me?" They will say, "We do assure thee not one of us can bear witness!"

When we give him a taste of some Mercy from Ourselves, after some adversity has touched him, he is sure to say, "This is due to my (merit): I think not that the Hour (of Judgment) will (ever) be established; but if I am brought back to my Lord, I have (much) good (stored) in His sight!" But We will show the Unbelievers the truth of all that they did, and We shall give them the taste of a severe Penalty.

If then they run away, We have not sent thee as a guard over them. Thy duty is but to convey (the Message). And truly, when We give man a taste of a Mercy from Ourselves, he doth exult thereat, but when some ill happens to him, on account of the deeds which his hands have sent forth, truly then is man ungrateful!

当时，易卜拉欣和易司马仪树起天房的基础，他们俩祈祷说：“我们的主啊！求你接受我们的敬意，你确是全聪的，确是全知的。

随从的人，将说：“但愿我们得返麈世，那末，我们将与他们绝交，犹如他们与我们绝交一样。”真主将这样以他们的行为昭示他们，使他们感到悔恨，他们绝不能逃出火狱。

你说：“信奉天经的人啊!你们责备我们，只为我们确信真主，确信他降示我们的经典，和他以前降示的经典；只为你们大半是犯罪的人。”

我以我的慈恩拯救了他和他的同道，而灭绝了那些否认我的迹象，并且不信道的人。

你无非是责备我们信仰了我们的主所降示的迹象。我们的主啊！求你把坚忍倾注在我们心中，求你在我们顺服的情状下使我们死去。”

穆萨从他的宗族中拣选了七十个人来赴我的约会；当他们为地震所袭击的时候，他说：“我的主啊！假若你意欲，那末，以前你早已毁灭他们和我。难道你要为我们中的愚人的行为而毁灭我们吗？这只是你的考验，你借此使你意欲者误入歧途，使你意欲者走上正道。你是我们的保护者，故求你饶恕我们，慈悯我们。你是最善的饶恕者。

如果我使人尝试从我发出的慈恩，然后我把那慈恩夺取了，他必定失望而且孤恩。

他正在造船。他的宗族中的贵族们每逢从他面前走过，都嘲笑他，他说：“如果你们嘲笑我们，我们也必定要像你们嘲笑我们一样嘲笑你们。

有人说：“努哈啊！你下船吧！从我发出的平安和幸福，将要降临你和与你同船的人的部分后裔。他们的另一部分后裔，我将使他们享受，然后，他们将遭受从我发出的痛苦的惩罚。”

有人说：“努哈啊！你下船吧！从我发出的平安和幸福，将要降临你和与你同船的人的部分后裔。他们的另一部分后裔，我将使他们享受，然后，他们将遭受从我发出的痛苦的惩罚。”

当我的命令降临的时候，我因为从我发出的慈恩而使撒立哈和同他一起信道的人脱离当日的耻辱，你的主确是至强的，确是有权的。

当我的命令降临的时候，我因从我发出的慈恩而拯救了舒阿卜和同他在一起信道的人。呐喊声袭击了不义的人们，顷刻之间，他们都伏仆在自己的家里。

当时，他们说：“优素福和他弟弟，在我们的父亲看来，是比我们还可爱的，而我们是一个（强壮的）团体，我们的父亲确是在明显的迷误之中。”

他们回去见了他们的父亲，说：“我们的父亲啊！人家不准我们再籴粮了，请你派我们的弟弟和我们一同去，我们就能籴粮；我们一定把他保护好。”

真主打一个比喻：一个奴隶，不能自由处理任何事务，一个自由人，我赏赐他忧厚的给养，而他秘密地和公开地加以施舍；他们俩人是一样的吗？一切赞颂，全归真主！但他们大半不知道。

他说：“事实是像这样的，你的主说：这对于我是容易的。我要以他为世人的迹象，为从我发出的恩惠，这是已经判决的事情。”

除我之外，难道他们有许多神明保护他们吗？他们所崇拜的神明，不能自卫，他们对我（的刑罚）也不蒙庇护。

曾蒙我最优的待遇者，将远离火狱，

今天，你们不要大呼求救。你们必定不能获得我的援助。

我确已赏赐达五德从我发出的恩惠。群山啊！众鸟啊！你们应当和着他赞颂，我为他使铁柔软，

他们说：“我们确已为你们而遭厄运，如果你们不停止宣传，我们誓必辱骂你们，或以痛苦的刑罚加于你们。”

我曾以他的眷属，和象他们的，同齐赏赐他。那是由我降下的慈恩，也是由于教诲有理智的人们。

人遭患难时，就祈祷我；一旦我把我的恩惠赏赐他，他便说：“我获得这恩惠，只因我有特殊的知识罢了。”不然！那是一种试验，但他们大半不知道。

至于阿德人，他们不该在地方上妄自尊大，他们说：“谁比我们能力更强大呢？”难道他们不知道创造他们的真主比他们更强大吗？他们否认了我的许多迹象，

关于复活时的认识，只归于他；果实的脱萼，女性的怀孕和分娩，无一不在他的洞鉴中。在那日，他将问他们：”你们妄称为我人伙伴的，在哪里呢？”他们将说：“我们报告你，我们中绝没有一个人能作证这件事。”

他遭遇患难之后，如果我使他尝试从我降下的恩惠，他必定说：“这是我用工作换来的。我不信复活时会到来。如果我被召去见我的主，则我在他那里必受至善的报酬。”我必将不信道者的行为告诉他们，我必使他们尝试严重的刑罚。

如果他们退避，那末，我没有派你做他们的监护者，你只负通知的责任。我使人类尝试从我发出的恩惠的时候，他们因恩惠而快乐；他们因为曾经犯罪而遭难的时候，人类确是孤恩的。
