[Hud 11:20] They will not be able to escape in the earth, nor do they have any protecting friends apart from Allah; they will have punishment upon punishment; they were unable to hear, nor used to see. (* Hear or see the truth.) [Hud 11:21] It is they who put their souls into ruin, and they lost all that they used to fabricate. [Hud 11:22] They will be, unnecessarily, the greatest losers in the Hereafter. [Hud 11:23] Indeed those who believed and performed good deeds and directed themselves towards their Lord - they are the people of Paradise; they will abide in it forever. [Hud 11:24] The example of the two groups is like one being blind and deaf, and the other seeing and hearing; are they equal in condition? So do you not ponder? Section 3 [Hud 11:25] And indeed We sent Nooh to his people that, "Indeed I am for you a clear Herald of Warning." [Hud 11:26] "That you must worship none except Allah; indeed I fear the punishment of the calamitous day upon you." [Hud 11:27] The chiefs of his people, who were disbelievers, said, "We see that you are just a mortal like us, and we do not see anyone following you except the most lowly among us, without insight; and we do not find any merit in you above us - in fact, we consider you liars." [Hud 11:28] He said, "O my people! What is your opinion
- if I am on a clear proof from my Lord and He has bestowed mercy upon
me from Him, so you remained blind towards it; shall we force it upon you
although you dislike it?" |
