Surah al-Kahf.
0:18
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
0:23
"And We will leave some of them that day to surge over others."
0:29
"And the Trumpet will be blown, and We will gather them all together."
0:34
And We will leave Our servants on the day when Our promise, which We promised them, comes to pass.
0:39
That We shall crush the mountains and scatter them from the earth completely.
0:44
Their jinn will mingle with their mankind.
0:46
And the Trumpet will be blown.
0:48
We will gather all of creation at that time for the station of reckoning, all together.
0:54
"And We will present Hell that day to the disbelievers, fully displayed."
1:02
We will bring forth Hell on the day the Trumpet is blown.
1:06
We will manifest it to those who disbelieve in Allah.
1:09
So that they may see it and witness it like the appearance of a mirage.
1:13
“Those whose eyes were hoodwinked from My reminder, and who could not bear to hear.” (18:101)
1:25
And We will present Hell that day to the disbelievers.
1:29
Those who did not look into the signs of Allah.
1:33
Nor did they contemplate His proofs.
1:35
And they could not bear to hear the reminder of Allah with which He reminded them.
1:40
So that they might take heed.
1:42
And distinguish guidance from misguidance, and disbelief from faith.
1:48
“Do the disbelievers reckon that they can choose My bondmen as protecting friends beside Me? Lo! We have prepared hell as a welcome for the disbelievers.” (18:102)
1:57
“Do the disbelievers reckon that they can choose My bondmen as protecting friends beside Me? Lo! We have prepared hell as a welcome for the disbelievers.” (18:102)
2:06
Did those who disbelieve in Allah think?
2:09
That they could take My servants as protectors instead of Allah?
2:14
No, rather they will be their enemies.
2:17
We have prepared Hell as a dwelling for those who disbelieve in Allah.
2:23
“Say: Shall We inform you who will be the greatest losers by their works?” (18:103)
2:28
“Those whose effort goeth astray in the life of the world, and yet they reckon that they do good work.” (18:104)
2:33
While they think that they are doing good work.
2:42
Say, O Muhammad, to those who argue with you in falsehood.
2:46
And debate with you regarding the issues, from the people of the two Scriptures, the Jews and the Christians.
2:52
Shall We inform you, O people?
2:54
Of those who exhausted themselves in deeds.
2:57
Seeking profit and favor thereby.
3:00
Yet they attained only ruin.
3:03
They are those whose deeds, which they performed in their worldly life, were not.
3:07
Based on guidance and uprightness.
3:10
Rather, they were based on deviation and misguidance.
3:12
And they think that by that action of theirs, they are obedient to Allah.
3:17
And that they are diligent in what He has urged His servants toward.
3:22
Those are the ones who disbelieved in the signs of their Lord and in meeting Him.
3:30
So their deeds have become worthless.
3:35
“Those are they who disbelieve in the revelations of their Lord and in the meeting with Him. Therefor their works are vain, and on the Day of Resurrection We assign no weight to them.” (18:105)
3:39
“That is their reward: hell, because they disbelieved, and made a jest of Our revelations and Our messengers.” (18:106)
3:47
And they took My signs and My messengers in mockery.
3:53
These are the ones whose characteristics We have described.
3:56
Those who disbelieved in the proofs and evidences of their Lord.
3:59
And denied meeting Him.
4:01
So their deeds were invalidated.
4:03
And there was no reward for them that would benefit their owners in the Hereafter.
4:08
So We will not assign any weight to them.
4:10
Because the scales are only weighed by righteous deeds.
4:15
And these people have no righteous deeds.
4:19
Their reward is Hell because of their disbelief in Allah.
4:23
And their taking the signs of His Book and the proofs of His messengers as a mockery.
4:28
And their ridiculing of His messengers.
4:31
Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds.
4:36
“Lo! those who believe and do good works, theirs are the Gardens of Paradise for welcome,” (18:107)
4:41
“Wherein they will abide, with no desire to be removed from thence.” (18:108)
4:47
Indeed, those who believed in Allah and His Messenger and acted in obedience to Him.
4:52
For them will be the gardens of Firdaws as dwellings and residences.
4:57
Abiding therein forever, never desiring any change from them.
5:03
“Say: Though the sea became ink for the Words of my Lord, verily the sea would be used up before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even though We brought the like thereof to help.” (18:109)
5:07
“Say: Though the sea became ink for the Words of my Lord, verily the sea would be used up before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even though We brought the like thereof to help.” (18:109)
5:15
Say, O Muhammad, if the sea were ink.
5:19
For the pen with which the words of my Lord are written.
5:23
“Say: Though the sea became ink for the Words of my Lord, verily the sea would be used up before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even though We brought the like thereof to help.” (18:109)
5:27
And if We added as much ink again to it, with which to write.
5:33
Say, "I am only a man like you, to whom it has been revealed."
5:42
It is revealed to me that your God is one God.
5:49
“Say: I am only a mortal like you. My Lord inspireth in me that your Allah is only One Allah. And whoever hopeth for the meeting with his Lord, let him do righteous work, and make none sharer of the worship due unto his Lord.” (18:110)
5:58
So let him perform righteous work.
6:01
“Say: I am only a mortal like you. My Lord inspireth in me that your Allah is only One Allah. And whoever hopeth for the meeting with his Lord, let him do righteous work, and make none sharer of the worship due unto his Lord.” (18:110)
6:07
Say to these polytheists, O Muhammad.
6:12
I am only a human being like you, from the children of Adam.
6:15
I have no knowledge except what Allah has taught me.
6:19
And indeed, Allah reveals to me.
6:21
That your object of worship, whom you must worship, is One.
6:26
So whoever fears the day of meeting Him.
6:29
Let him make his worship sincere to Him and single Him out in Lordship.
