26. Surah Ash-Shu'ara – Verses 201–227

They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment.

— Saheeh International

And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not.

— Saheeh International

And they will say, "May we be reprieved?"

— Saheeh International

So for Our punishment are they impatient?

— Saheeh International

Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years

— Saheeh International

And then there came to them that which they were promised?

— Saheeh International

They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided.

— Saheeh International

And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners

— Saheeh International

As a reminder; and never have We been unjust.

— Saheeh International

And the devils have not brought it [i.e., the revelation] down.1

— Saheeh International

It is not allowable for them, nor would they be able.

— Saheeh International

Indeed they, from [its] hearing, are removed.1

— Saheeh International

So do not invoke1 with Allāh another deity and [thus] be among the punished.

— Saheeh International

And warn, [O Muḥammad], your closest kindred.

— Saheeh International

And lower your wing [i.e., show kindness] to those who follow you of the believers.

— Saheeh International

And if they disobey you, then say, "Indeed, I am disassociated from what you are doing."

— Saheeh International

And rely upon the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

— Saheeh International

Who sees you when you arise1

— Saheeh International

And your movement among those who prostrate.1

— Saheeh International

Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

— Saheeh International

Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend?

— Saheeh International

They descend upon every sinful liar.

— Saheeh International

They pass on what is heard,1 and most of them are liars.

— Saheeh International

And the poets - [only] the deviators follow them;

— Saheeh International

Do you not see that in every valley they roam1

— Saheeh International

And that they say what they do not do? -

— Saheeh International

Except those [poets] who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allāh often and defend [the Muslims]1 after they were wronged. And those who have wronged are going to know to what [kind of] return they will be returned.

— Saheeh International
