Have you not seen that Allah has subjected for you whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth, and has lavished His favours upon you, both seen and unseen? ˹Still˺ there are some who dispute about Allah without knowledge, or guidance, or an enlightening scripture.

When it is said to them, “Follow what Allah has revealed,” they reply, “No! We ˹only˺ follow what we found our forefathers practicing.” ˹Would they still do so˺ even if Satan is inviting them to the torment of the Blaze?

31:22

Whoever fully submits themselves to Allah and is a good-doer, they have certainly grasped the firmest hand-hold. And with Allah rests the outcome of ˹all˺ affairs.

But whoever disbelieves, do not let their disbelief grieve you ˹O Prophet˺. To Us is their return, and We will inform them of all they did. Surely Allah knows best what is ˹hidden˺ in the heart.

31:24

We allow them enjoyment for a little while, then ˹in time˺ We will force them into a harsh torment.

31:25

ﲤAnd ifﲥyou ask themﲦWhoﲧcreatedﲨthe heavensﲩand the earthﲪThey will surely sayﲫﲬAllahﲭSayﲮAll praisesﲯﲰ(are) for AllahﲱButﲲmost of themﲳ(do) notﲴknowﲵ(25)

And if you ask them who created the heavens and the earth, they will definitely say, “Allah!” Say, “Praise be to Allah!” In fact, most of them do not know.

31:26

To Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth. Allah is truly the Self-Sufficient, Praiseworthy.

If all the trees on earth were pens and the ocean ˹were ink˺, refilled by seven other oceans, the Words of Allah would not be exhausted. Surely Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.

ﳙNotﳚ(is) your creationﳛand notﳜyour resurrectionﳝbutﳞas a soulﳟﳠsingleﳡIndeedﳢAllahﳣ(is) All-HearerﳤAll-Seerﳥ(28)

The creation and resurrection of you ˹all˺ is as simple ˹for Him˺ as that of a single soul. Surely Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
