M.Pickthall
124. But he who turneth away from remembrance of Me, his will be a narrow life, and
I shall bring him blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection.
Yusuf Ali
124. "But whosoever turns away from My Message verily for him is a life narrowed down
and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment."
M.Pickthall
125. He will say: My Lord! Wherefore hast Thou gathered me (hither) blind, when I was
wont to see?
Yusuf Ali
125. He will say: "O my Lord! why hast thou raised me up blind while I had sight
(before)?"
M.Pickthall
126. He will say: So (it must be). Our revelations came unto thee but thou didst forget
them. In like manner thou art forgotten this Day.
Yusuf Ali
126. (Allah) will say: "Thus didst thou when Our Signs came unto thee disregard them:
so wilt thou this day be disregarded."
M.Pickthall
127. Thus do We reward him who is prodigal and believeth not the revelations of his Lord;
and verily the doom of the Hereafter will be sterner and more lasting.
Yusuf Ali
127. And thus do We recompense him who transgresses beyond bounds and believes not in
the Signs of his Lord: and the Penalty of the Hereafter is far more grievous and more
enduring.
M.Pickthall
128. Is it not a guidance for them (to know) how many a generation We destroyed before
them, amid whose dwellings they walk? Lo! therein verily are signs for men of thought.
Yusuf Ali
128. It is not a warning to such men (to call to mind) how many generations before them
We destroyed in whose haunts they (now) move? Verily in this are Signs for men endued
with understanding.
M.Pickthall
129. And but for a decree that had already gone forth from thy Lord, and a term already
fixed, the judgment would (have) been inevitable (in this world).
Yusuf Ali
129. Had it not been for a Word that went forth before from thy Lord (their punishment)
must necessarily have come; but there is a term appointed (for respite).
M.Pickthall
130. Therefor (O Muhammad), bear with what they say, and celebrate the praises of thy
Lord ere the rising of the sun and ere the going down thereof. And glorify Him some
hours of the night and at the two ends of the day, that thou mayst find acceptance.
Yusuf Ali
130. Therefore be patient with what they say and celebrate (constantly) the praises
of thy Lord before the rising of the sun and before its setting; yea celebrate them
for part of the hours of the night and at the sides of the day: that thou mayest have
(spiritual) joy.
M.Pickthall
131. And strain not thine eyes toward that which We cause some wedded pairs among
them to enjoy, the flower of the life of the world, that We may try them thereby.
The provision of thy Lord is better and more lasting.
Yusuf Ali
131. Nor strain thine eyes in longing for the things We have given for enjoyment
to parties of them the splendor of the life of this world through which We test
them: but the provision of thy Lord is better and more enduring.
M.Pickthall
132. And enjoin upon thy people worship, and be constant therein. We ask not of
thee a provision: We provide for thee. And the sequel is for righteousness.
Yusuf Ali
132. Enjoin prayer on thy people and be constant therein. We ask thee not to
provide sustenance: We provide it for thee. But the (fruit of) the Hereafter is
for Righteousness.
M.Pickthall
133. And they say: If only he would bring us a miracle from his Lord! Hath there
not come unto them the proof of what is in the former Scriptures?
Yusuf Ali
133. They say: "Why does he not bring us a Sign from His Lord?" Has not a clear
Sign come to them of all that was in the former Books of revelation?
M.Pickthall
134. And if We had destroyed them with some punishment before it, they would
assuredly have said: Our Lord! If only Thou hadst sent unto us a messenger, so
that we might have followed Thy revelations before we were (thus) humbled and
disgraced!
Yusuf Ali
134. And if We had inflicted on them a Penalty before this they would have said:
"Our Lord! if only Thou hadst sent us an apostle we should certainly have followed
Thy Signs before we were humbled and put to shame."
M.Pickthall
135. Say: Each is awaiting; so await ye! Ye will come to know who are the owners
of the path of equity, and who is right.
Yusuf Ali
135. Say: "Each one (of us) is waiting: wait ye therefore and soon shall ye know
who it is that is on the straight and even way and who it is that has received
guidance."
