   Read the passage · Al-An'aam 1–18

   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَجَعَلَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ وَٱلنُّورَ ۖ ثُمَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِرَبِّهِمْ يَعْدِلُونَ١

   [All] praise is [due] to Allah, who created the heavens and the earth and made the darkness and the light. Then those who disbelieve equate [others] with their Lord.

   هُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُم مِّن طِينٍۢ ثُمَّ قَضَىٰٓ أَجَلًۭا ۖ وَأَجَلٌۭ مُّسَمًّى عِندَهُۥ ۖ ثُمَّ أَنتُمْ تَمْتَرُونَ٢

   It is He who created you from clay and then decreed a term and a specified time [known] to Him; then [still] you are in dispute.

   وَهُوَ ٱللَّهُ فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ يَعْلَمُ سِرَّكُمْ وَجَهْرَكُمْ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْسِبُونَ٣

   And He is Allah, [the only deity] in the heavens and the earth. He knows your secret and what you make public, and He knows that which you earn.

   وَمَا تَأْتِيهِم مِّنْ ءَايَةٍۢ مِّنْ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ٤

   And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they turn away therefrom.

   فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِٱلْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَآءَهُمْ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِيهِمْ أَنۢبَٰٓؤُا۟ مَا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ٥

   For they had denied the truth when it came to them, but there is going to reach them the news of what they used to ridicule.

   أَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن قَرْنٍۢ مَّكَّنَّٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مَا لَمْ نُمَكِّن لَّكُمْ وَأَرْسَلْنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ عَلَيْهِم مِّدْرَارًۭا وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرَ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهِمْ فَأَهْلَكْنَٰهُم بِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَأَنشَأْنَا مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْنًا ءَاخَرِينَ٦

   Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them which We had established upon the earth as We have not established you? And We sent [rain from] the sky upon them in showers and made rivers flow beneath them; then We destroyed them for their sins and brought forth after them a generation of others.

   وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكَ كِتَٰبًۭا فِى قِرْطَاسٍۢ فَلَمَسُوهُ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ لَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ٧

   And even if We had sent down to you, [O Muhammad], a written scripture on a page and they touched it with their hands, the disbelievers would say, "This is not but obvious magic."

   وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْلَآ أُنزِلَ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكٌۭ ۖ وَلَوْ أَنزَلْنَا مَلَكًۭا لَّقُضِىَ ٱلْأَمْرُ ثُمَّ لَا يُنظَرُونَ٨

   And they say, "Why was there not sent down to him an angel?" But if We had sent down an angel, the matter would have been decided; then they would not be reprieved.

   وَلَوْ جَعَلْنَٰهُ مَلَكًۭا لَّجَعَلْنَٰهُ رَجُلًۭا وَلَلَبَسْنَا عَلَيْهِم مَّا يَلْبِسُونَ٩

   And if We had made him an angel, We would have made him [appear as] a man, and We would have covered them with that in which they cover themselves.

   وَلَقَدِ ٱسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍۢ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِٱلَّذِينَ سَخِرُوا۟ مِنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ١٠

   And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by that which they used to ridicule.

   قُلْ سِيرُوا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ ٱنظُرُوا۟ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ١١

   Say, "Travel through the land; then observe how was the end of the deniers."

   قُل لِّمَن مَّا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ قُل لِّلَّهِ ۚ كَتَبَ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ ٱلرَّحْمَةَ ۚ لَيَجْمَعَنَّكُمْ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهِ ۚ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ١٢

   Say, "To whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth?" Say, "To Allah." He has decreed upon Himself mercy. He will surely assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt. Those who will lose themselves [that Day] do not believe.

   ۞ وَلَهُۥ مَا سَكَنَ فِى ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ١٣

   And to Him belongs that which reposes by night and by day, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

   قُلْ أَغَيْرَ ٱللَّهِ أَتَّخِذُ وَلِيًّۭا فَاطِرِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَهُوَ يُطْعِمُ وَلَا يُطْعَمُ ۗ قُلْ إِنِّىٓ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ ۖ وَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ١٤

   Say, "Is it other than Allah I should take as a protector, Creator of the heavens and the earth, while it is He who feeds and is not fed?" Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, I have been commanded to be the first [among you] who submit [to Allah] and [was commanded], 'Do not ever be of the polytheists.' "

   قُلْ إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ إِنْ عَصَيْتُ رَبِّى عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍۢ١٥

   Say, "Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."

   مَّن يُصْرَفْ عَنْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ فَقَدْ رَحِمَهُۥ ۚ وَذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْمُبِينُ١٦

   He from whom it is averted that Day - [Allah] has granted him mercy. And that is the clear attainment.

   وَإِن يَمْسَسْكَ ٱللَّهُ بِضُرٍّۢ فَلَا كَاشِفَ لَهُۥٓ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ وَإِن يَمْسَسْكَ بِخَيْرٍۢ فَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌۭ١٧

   And if Allah should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him. And if He touches you with good - then He is over all things competent.

   وَهُوَ ٱلْقَاهِرُ فَوْقَ عِبَادِهِۦ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْخَبِيرُ١٨

   And He is the subjugator over His servants. And He is the Wise, the Acquainted [with all].

   Read the passage · Al-Waaqia 1–40

   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ١

   When the Occurrence occurs,

   لَيْسَ لِوَقْعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ٢

   There is, at its occurrence, no denial.

   خَافِضَةٌۭ رَّافِعَةٌ٣

   It will bring down [some] and raise up [others].

   إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ رَجًّۭا٤

   When the earth is shaken with convulsion

   وَبُسَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ بَسًّۭا٥

   And the mountains are broken down, crumbling

   فَكَانَتْ هَبَآءًۭ مُّنۢبَثًّۭا٦

   And become dust dispersing.

   وَكُنتُمْ أَزْوَٰجًۭا ثَلَٰثَةًۭ٧

   And you become [of] three kinds:

   فَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ٨

   Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

   وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ٩

   And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

   وَٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ١٠

   And the forerunners, the forerunners -

   أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ١١

   Those are the ones brought near [to Allah]

   فِى جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ١٢

   In the Gardens of Pleasure,

   ثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ١٣

   A [large] company of the former peoples

   وَقَلِيلٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ١٤

   And a few of the later peoples,

   عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍۢ مَّوْضُونَةٍۢ١٥

   On thrones woven [with ornament],

   مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَيْهَا مُتَقَٰبِلِينَ١٦

   Reclining on them, facing each other.

   يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٰنٌۭ مُّخَلَّدُونَ١٧

   There will circulate among them young boys made eternal

   بِأَكْوَابٍۢ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍۢ مِّن مَّعِينٍۢ١٨

   With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring -

   لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ١٩

   No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated -

   وَفَٰكِهَةٍۢ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ٢٠

   And fruit of what they select

   وَلَحْمِ طَيْرٍۢ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ٢١

   And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire.

   وَحُورٌ عِينٌۭ٢٢

   And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes,

   كَأَمْثَٰلِ ٱللُّؤْلُؤِ ٱلْمَكْنُونِ٢٣

   The likenesses of pearls well-protected,

   جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ٢٤

   As reward for what they used to do.

   لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًۭا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا٢٥

   They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin -

   إِلَّا قِيلًۭا سَلَٰمًۭا سَلَٰمًۭا٢٦

   Only a saying: "Peace, peace."

   وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ٢٧

   The companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

   فِى سِدْرٍۢ مَّخْضُودٍۢ٢٨

   [They will be] among lote trees with thorns removed

   وَطَلْحٍۢ مَّنضُودٍۢ٢٩

   Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden,

   وَفُرُشٍۢ مَّرْفُوعَةٍ٣٤

   And [upon] beds raised high.

   إِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءًۭ٣٥

   Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation

   فَجَعَلْنَٰهُنَّ أَبْكَارًا٣٦

   And made them virgins,

   عُرُبًا أَتْرَابًۭا٣٧

   Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age,

   لِّأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ٣٨

   For the companions of the right [who are]

   ثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ٣٩

   A company of the former peoples

   وَثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ٤٠
