Glorious is the One who has revealed the Criterion to His servant, so that he may be a warner to the worlds,

the One to whom belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and who did neither have a son, nor is there any partner to him in the kingdom, and who has created everything and designed it in a perfect measure.

And they have coined gods, other than Him, who do not create any thing, rather they themselves are created, and they possess no power to cause harm or benefit even to themselves, nor do they have any power over death or life or resurrection.

And said those who disbelieve, “ This is nothing but a lie he (the messenger) has fabricated and some other people have helped him in it." Thus they came up with transgression and falsehood.

And they said, " (These are) the tales of the ancients he (the messenger) has caused to be written, and they are read out to him at morn and eve."

] Say, "It is sent down by the One who knows the secret in the heavens and the earth. Indeed He is Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.

And they said, "What sort of messenger is this who eats food and walks in the markets? Why is it that an angel has not been sent down to him who would have been a warner alongwith him,

or that a treasure is not thrown down to him, or that he has no garden to eat from it?" And the transgressors said, "You are following none but a bewitched man."

See how they coined similes for you, so they have gone astray and cannot find a way.

Glorious is the One who, if He so wills, would give you better than that - gardens beneath which rivers flow, and would give you palaces.
