فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمُ الۡحَقُّ مِنۡ عِنۡدِنَا قَالُوۡا لَوۡلَا٘ اُوۡتِيَ مِثۡلَ مَا٘ اُوۡتِيَ مُوۡسٰيؕ اَوَلَمۡ يَكۡفُرُوۡا بِمَا٘ اُوۡتِيَ مُوۡسٰي مِنۡ قَبۡلُۚ قَالُوۡا سِحۡرٰنِ تَظَاهَرَاࣞ وَقَالُوۡ٘ا اِنَّا بِكُلٍّ كٰفِرُوۡنَ
But when the truth came to them from Us, they said, "Why was he not given like that which was given to Moses?" Did they not disbelieve in that which was given to Moses before? They said, "[They are but] two works of magic supporting each other, and indeed we are, in both, disbelievers
Verse 28:49
قُلۡ فَاۡتُوۡا بِكِتٰبٍ مِّنۡ عِنۡدِ اللّٰهِ هُوَ اَهۡدٰي مِنۡهُمَا٘ اَتَّبِعۡهُ اِنۡ كُنۡتُمۡ صٰدِقِيۡنَ
Say, "Then bring a scripture from Allah which is more guiding than either of them that I may follow it, if you should be truthful
Verse 28:50
فَاِنۡ لَّمۡ يَسۡتَجِيۡبُوۡا لَكَ فَاعۡلَمۡ اَنَّمَا يَتَّبِعُوۡنَ اَهۡوَآءَهُمۡؕ وَمَنۡ اَضَلُّ مِمَّنِ اتَّبَعَ هَوٰىهُ بِغَيۡرِ هُدًي مِّنَ اللّٰهِؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يَهۡدِي الۡقَوۡمَ الظّٰلِمِيۡنَࣖ
But if they do not respond to you - then know that they only follow their [own] desires. And who is more astray than one who follows his desire without guidance from Allah? Indeed, Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people
Verse 28:51
وَلَقَدۡ وَصَّلۡنَا لَهُمُ الۡقَوۡلَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَذَكَّرُوۡنَؕ
And We have [repeatedly] conveyed to them the Qur'an that they might be reminded
Verse 28:52
اَلَّذِيۡنَ اٰتَيۡنٰهُمُ الۡكِتٰبَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِهٖ هُمۡ بِهٖ يُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ
Those to whom We gave the Scripture before it - they are believers in it
Verse 28:53
وَاِذَا يُتۡلٰي عَلَيۡهِمۡ قَالُوۡ٘ا اٰمَنَّا بِهٖ٘ اِنَّهُ الۡحَقُّ مِنۡ رَّبِّنَا٘ اِنَّا كُنَّا مِنۡ قَبۡلِهٖ مُسۡلِمِيۡنَ
And when it is recited to them, they say, "We have believed in it; indeed, it is the truth from our Lord. Indeed we were, [even] before it, Muslims [submitting to Allah]
Verse 28:54
اُولٰٓئِكَ يُؤۡتَوۡنَ اَجۡرَهُمۡ مَّرَّتَيۡنِ بِمَا صَبَرُوۡا وَيَدۡرَءُوۡنَ بِالۡحَسَنَةِ السَّيِّئَةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقۡنٰهُمۡ يُنۡفِقُوۡنَ
Those will be given their reward twice for what they patiently endured and [because] they avert evil through good, and from what We have provided them they spend
Verse 28:55
وَاِذَا سَمِعُوا اللَّغۡوَ اَعۡرَضُوۡا عَنۡهُ وَقَالُوۡا لَنَا٘ اَعۡمَالُنَا وَلَكُمۡ اَعۡمَالُكُمۡؗ سَلٰمٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡؗ لَا نَبۡتَغِي الۡجٰهِلِيۡنَ
And when they hear ill speech, they turn away from it and say, "For us are our deeds, and for you are your deeds. Peace will be upon you; we seek not the ignorant
Verse 28:56
اِنَّكَ لَا تَهۡدِيۡ مَنۡ اَحۡبَبۡتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ يَهۡدِيۡ مَنۡ يَّشَآءُۚ وَهُوَ اَعۡلَمُ بِالۡمُهۡتَدِيۡنَ
Indeed, [O Muhammad], you do not guide whom you like, but Allah guides whom He wills. And He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided
Verse 28:57
وَقَالُوۡ٘ا اِنۡ نَّتَّبِعِ الۡهُدٰي مَعَكَ نُتَخَطَّفۡ مِنۡ اَرۡضِنَاؕ اَوَلَمۡ نُمَكِّنۡ لَّهُمۡ حَرَمًا اٰمِنًا يُّجۡبٰ٘ي اِلَيۡهِ ثَمَرٰتُ كُلِّ شَيۡءٍ رِّزۡقًا مِّنۡ لَّدُنَّا وَلٰكِنَّ اَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُوۡنَ
And they say, "If we were to follow the guidance with you, we would be swept from our land." Have we not established for them a safe sanctuary to which are brought the fruits of all things as provision from Us? But most of them do not know
Verse 28:58
وَكَمۡ اَهۡلَكۡنَا مِنۡ قَرۡيَةٍۭ بَطِرَتۡ مَعِيۡشَتَهَاۚ فَتِلۡكَ مَسٰكِنُهُمۡ لَمۡ تُسۡكَنۡ مِّنۭۡ بَعۡدِهِمۡ اِلَّا قَلِيۡلًاؕ وَكُنَّا نَحۡنُ الۡوٰرِثِيۡنَ
And how many a city have We destroyed that was insolent in its [way of] living, and those are their dwellings which have not been inhabited after them except briefly. And it is We who were the inheritors
Verse 28:59
وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ مُهۡلِكَ الۡقُرٰي حَتّٰي يَبۡعَثَ فِيۡ٘ اُمِّهَا رَسُوۡلًا يَّتۡلُوۡا عَلَيۡهِمۡ اٰيٰتِنَاۚ وَمَا كُنَّا مُهۡلِكِي الۡقُرٰ٘ي اِلَّا وَاَهۡلُهَا ظٰلِمُوۡنَ
And never would your Lord have destroyed the cities until He had sent to their mother a messenger reciting to them Our verses. And We would not destroy the cities except while their people were wrongdoers
Verse 28:60
وَمَا٘ اُوۡتِيۡتُمۡ مِّنۡ شَيۡءٍ فَمَتَاعُ الۡحَيٰوةِ الدُّنۡيَا وَزِيۡنَتُهَاۚ وَمَا عِنۡدَ اللّٰهِ خَيۡرٌ وَّاَبۡقٰيؕ اَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُوۡنَࣖ
And whatever thing you [people] have been given - it is [only for] the enjoyment of worldly life and its adornment. And what is with Allah is better and more lasting; so will you not use reason
Verse 28:61
اَفَمَنۡ وَّعَدۡنٰهُ وَعۡدًا حَسَنًا فَهُوَ لَاقِيۡهِ كَمَنۡ مَّتَّعۡنٰهُ مَتَاعَ الۡحَيٰوةِ الدُّنۡيَا ثُمَّ هُوَ يَوۡمَ الۡقِيٰمَةِ مِنَ الۡمُحۡضَرِيۡنَ
Then is he whom We have promised a good promise which he will obtain like he for whom We provided enjoyment of worldly life [but] then he is, on the Day of Resurrection, among those presented [for punishment in Hell]
Verse 28:62
وَيَوۡمَ يُنَادِيۡهِمۡ فَيَقُوۡلُ اَيۡنَ شُرَكَآءِيَ الَّذِيۡنَ كُنۡتُمۡ تَزۡعُمُوۡنَ
And [warn of] the Day He will call them and say, "Where are My 'partners' which you used to claim
Verse 28:63
قَالَ الَّذِيۡنَ حَقَّ عَلَيۡهِمُ الۡقَوۡلُ رَبَّنَا هٰ٘ؤُلَآءِ الَّذِيۡنَ اَغۡوَيۡنَاۚ اَغۡوَيۡنٰهُمۡ كَمَا غَوَيۡنَاۚ تَبَرَّاۡنَا٘ اِلَيۡكَؗ مَا كَانُوۡ٘ا اِيَّانَا يَعۡبُدُوۡنَ
Those upon whom the word will have come into effect will say, "Our Lord, these are the ones we led to error. We led them to error just as we were in error. We declare our disassociation [from them] to You. They did not used to worship us
Verse 28:64
وَقِيۡلَ ادۡعُوۡا شُرَكَآءَكُمۡ فَدَعَوۡهُمۡ فَلَمۡ يَسۡتَجِيۡبُوۡا لَهُمۡ وَرَاَوُا الۡعَذَابَۚ لَوۡ اَنَّهُمۡ كَانُوۡا يَهۡتَدُوۡنَ
And it will be said, "Invoke your 'partners' " and they will invoke them; but they will not respond to them, and they will see the punishment. If only they had followed guidance

فَعَمِيَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمُ الۡاَنۭۡ بَآءُ يَوۡمَئِذٍ فَهُمۡ لَا يَتَسَآءَلُوۡنَ
But the information will be unapparent to them that Day, so they will not [be able to] ask one another
Verse 28:67

But as for one who had repented, believed, and done righteousness, it is promised by Allah that he will be among the successful
Verse 28:68
وَرَبُّكَ يَخۡلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ وَيَخۡتَارُؕ مَا كَانَ لَهُمُ الۡخِيَرَةُؕ سُبۡحٰنَ اللّٰهِ وَتَعٰلٰي عَمَّا يُشۡرِكُوۡنَ

And We will extract from every nation a witness and say, "Produce your proof," and they will know that the truth belongs to Allah, and lost from them is that which they used to invent

اِنَّ قَارُوۡنَ كَانَ مِنۡ قَوۡمِ مُوۡسٰي فَبَغٰي عَلَيۡهِمۡࣕ وَاٰتَيۡنٰهُ مِنَ الۡكُنُوۡزِ مَا٘ اِنَّ مَفَاتِحَهٗ لَتَنُوۡٓاُ بِالۡعُصۡبَةِ اُولِي الۡقُوَّةِࣗ اِذۡ قَالَ لَهٗ قَوۡمُهٗ لَا تَفۡرَحۡ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الۡفَرِحِيۡنَ
Indeed, Qarun was from the people of Moses, but he tyrannized them. And We gave him of treasures whose keys would burden a band of strong men; thereupon his people said to him, "Do not exult. Indeed, Allah does not like the exultant
Verse 28:77
وَابۡتَغِ فِيۡمَا٘ اٰتٰىكَ اللّٰهُ الدَّارَ الۡاٰخِرَةَ وَلَا تَنۡسَ نَصِيۡبَكَ مِنَ الدُّنۡيَا وَاَحۡسِنۡ كَمَا٘ اَحۡسَنَ اللّٰهُ اِلَيۡكَ وَلَا تَبۡغِ الۡفَسَادَ فِي الۡاَرۡضِؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الۡمُفۡسِدِيۡنَ

قَالَ اِنَّمَا٘ اُوۡتِيۡتُهٗ عَلٰي عِلۡمٍ عِنۡدِيۡؕ اَوَلَمۡ يَعۡلَمۡ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ قَدۡ اَهۡلَكَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِهٖ مِنَ الۡقُرُوۡنِ مَنۡ هُوَ اَشَدُّ مِنۡهُ قُوَّةً وَّاَكۡثَرُ جَمۡعًاؕ وَلَا يُسۡـَٔلُ عَنۡ ذُنُوۡبِهِمُ الۡمُجۡرِمُوۡنَ
He said, "I was only given it because of knowledge I have." Did he not know that Allah had destroyed before him of generations those who were greater than him in power and greater in accumulation [of wealth]? But the criminals, about their sins, will not be asked

فَخَرَجَ عَلٰي قَوۡمِهٖ فِيۡ زِيۡنَتِهٖؕ قَالَ الَّذِيۡنَ يُرِيۡدُوۡنَ الۡحَيٰوةَ الدُّنۡيَا يٰلَيۡتَ لَنَا مِثۡلَ مَا٘ اُوۡتِيَ قَارُوۡنُۙ اِنَّهٗ لَذُوۡ حَظٍّ عَظِيۡمٍ

Verse 28:80
وَقَالَ الَّذِيۡنَ اُوۡتُوا الۡعِلۡمَ وَيۡلَكُمۡ ثَوَابُ اللّٰهِ خَيۡرٌ لِّمَنۡ اٰمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًاۚ وَلَا يُلَقّٰىهَا٘ اِلَّا الصّٰبِرُوۡنَ

And those who had wished for his position the previous day began to say, "Oh, how Allah extends provision to whom He wills of His servants and restricts it! If not that Allah had conferred favor on us, He would have caused it to swallow us. Oh, how the disbelievers do not succeed
Verse 28:83
تِلۡكَ الدَّارُ الۡاٰخِرَةُ نَجۡعَلُهَا لِلَّذِيۡنَ لَا يُرِيۡدُوۡنَ عُلُوًّا فِي الۡاَرۡضِ وَلَا فَسَادًاؕ وَالۡعَاقِبَةُ لِلۡمُتَّقِيۡنَ
That home of the Hereafter We assign to those who do not desire exaltedness upon the earth or corruption. And the [best] outcome is for the righteous
Verse 28:84
مَنۡ جَآءَ بِالۡحَسَنَةِ فَلَهٗ خَيۡرٌ مِّنۡهَاۚ وَمَنۡ جَآءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَلَا يُجۡزَي الَّذِيۡنَ عَمِلُوا السَّيِّاٰتِ اِلَّا مَا كَانُوۡا يَعۡمَلُوۡنَ

اِنَّ الَّذِيۡ فَرَضَ عَلَيۡكَ الۡقُرۡاٰنَ لَرَآدُّكَ اِلٰي مَعَادٍؕ قُلۡ رَّبِّيۡ٘ اَعۡلَمُ مَنۡ جَآءَ بِالۡهُدٰي وَمَنۡ هُوَ فِيۡ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيۡنٍ
Indeed, [O Muhammad], He who imposed upon you the Qur'an will take you back to a place of return. Say, "My Lord is most knowing of who brings guidance and who is in clear error
Verse 28:86
وَمَا كُنۡتَ تَرۡجُوۡ٘ا اَنۡ يُّلۡقٰ٘ي اِلَيۡكَ الۡكِتٰبُ اِلَّا رَحۡمَةً مِّنۡ رَّبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُوۡنَنَّ ظَهِيۡرًا لِّلۡكٰفِرِيۡنَؗ
And you were not expecting that the Book would be conveyed to you, but [it is] a mercy from your Lord. So do not be an assistant to the disbelievers
