(14) Surat Ibrahim سُورَة إبرَاهِيم أَلِف-لَام-رَا كِتَابٌ أَنزَلنَاهُ~ُ إِلَيكَ لِتُخرِجَ النَّاسَ مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّور بِإِذنِ رَبِّهِم إِلَى صِرَاطِ العَزِيزِ الحَمِيدِ Alif-Lam-Ra. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings]. (This is) a Book which We have revealed unto you (O Muhammad SAW) in order that you might lead mankind out of darkness (of disbelief and polytheism) into light (of belief in the Oneness of Allah and Islamic Monotheism) by their Lord's Leave to the Path of the All-Mighty, the Owner of all Praise.

Then Allah misleads whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

Verily! My Lord is indeed the All-Hearer of invocations.

Forgive me and my parents, and (all) the believers on the Day when the reckoning will be established." Rabbana Aghfir Li Wa Liwalidayya Wa Lilmu'uminina Yawma Yaqūmu Al-Ĥisabu وَلاَ تَحسَبَنَّ اللَّهَ غَافِلاً عَمَّا يَعمَلُ الظَّالِمُونَ إِنَّمَا يُؤَخِّرُهُم لِيَوم ٍ تَشخَصُ فِيهِ الأَبْصَارُ Consider not that Allah is unaware of that which the Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers, etc.) do, but He gives them respite up to a Day when the eyes will stare in horror. Wa La Taĥsabanna Allaha Ghafilaan `Amma Ya`malu Až-Žalimūna 'Innama Yu'uakhkhiruhum Liyawmin Tashkhaşu Fihi Al-'Abşaru مُهطِعِينَ مُقْنِعِي رُءُوسِهِم لاَ يَرتَدُّ إِلَيهِم طَرفُهُم وَأَفئِدَتُهُم هَوَاء ٌ (They will be) hastening forward with necks outstretched, their heads raised up (towards the sky), their gaze returning not towards them and their hearts empty (from thinking because of extreme fear). Muhţi`ina Muqni`i Ru'ūsihim La Yartaddu 'Ilayhim Ţarfuhum Wa 'Af'idatuhum Hawa'un وَأَنذِرِ النَّاسَ يَومَ يَأْتِيهِمُ العَذَابُ فَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا رَبَّنَا أَخِّرنَا إِلَى أَجَل ٍ قَرِيب ٍ نُجِبدَعوَتَكَ وَنَتَّبِعِ الرُّسُلَ أَوَلَم تَكُونُوا أَقْسَمتُممِنقَبْلُ مَا لَكُممِنزَوَال ٍ And warn (O Muhammad SAW) mankind of the Day when the torment will come unto them; then the wrong-doers will say: "Our Lord! Respite us for a little while, we will answer Your Call and follow the Messengers!" (It will be said): "Had you not sworn aforetime that you would not leave (the world for the Hereafter). Wa 'Andhiri An-Nasa Yawma Ya'tihimu Al-`Adhabu Fayaqūlu Al-Ladhina Žalamū Rabbana 'Akhkhirna 'Ilá 'Ajalin Qaribin Nujib Da`wataka Wa Nattabi`i Ar-Rusula 'Awalam Takūnū 'Aqsamtum Min Qablu Ma Lakum Min Zawalin وَسَكَنتُم فِي مَسَاكِنِ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا أَنفُسَهُم وَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُم كَيفَ فَعَلنَا بِهِم وَضَرَبْنَا لَكُمُ الأَمثَالَ "And you dwelt in the dwellings of men who wronged themselves, and it was clear to you how We had dealt with them. And We put forth (many) parables for you."

[It is said by some interpreters regarding this Verse that the Quraish pagans plotted against Prophet Muhammad SAW to kill him but they failed and were unable to carry out their plot which they plotted]. Wa Qad Makarū Makrahum Wa `Inda Allahi Makruhum Wa 'In Kana Makruhum Litazūla Minhu Al-Jibalu فَلاَ تَحسَبَنَّ اللَّهَ مُخلِفَ وَعدِه ِِ رُسُلَهُ~ُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيز ٌ ذُو انتِقَام ٍ So think not that Allah will fail to keep His Promise to His Messengers. Certainly, Allah is All-Mighty, - All-Able of Retribution. Fala Taĥsabanna Allaha Mukhlifa Wa`dihi Rusulahu 'Inna Allaha `Azizun Dhū Antiqamin يَومَ تُبَدَّلُ الأَرضُ غَيرَ الأَرضِ وَالسَّمَاوَاتُ وَبَرَزُوا لِلَّهِ الوَاحِدِ القَهَّارِ On the Day when the earth will be changed to another earth and so will be the heavens, and they (all creatures) will appear before Allah, the One, the Irresistible. Yawma Tubaddalu Al-'Arđu Ghayra Al-'Arđi Wa As-Samawatu Wa Barazū Lillahi Al-Waĥidi Al-Qahhari وَتَرَى المُجْرِمِينَ يَومَئِذ ٍ مُقَرَّنِينَ فِي الأَصفَادِ And you will see the Mujrimun (criminals, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism, polytheists, disobedient to Allah, etc.) that Day bound together in fetters; [Muqarranun in fetters; mean:- with their hands and feet tied to their necks with chains.] Wa Tará Al-Mujrimina Yawma'idhin Muqarranina Fi Al-'Aşfadi سَرَابِيلُهُممِنقَطِرَان ٍ وَتَغشَى وُجُوهَهُمُ النَّارُ Their garments will be of pitch, and fire will cover their faces. Sarabiluhum Min Qaţiranin Wa Taghshá Wujūhahumu An-Naru لِيَجْزِيَ اللَّهُ كُلَّ نَفس ٍ مَا كَسَبَت إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَرِيعُ الحِسَابِ That Allah may requite each person according to what he has earned. Truly, Allah is Swift at reckoning.
