وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ لِأَمَٰنَٰتِهِمۡ وَعَهۡدِهِمۡ رَٰعُونَ 8

8        And those who faithfully fulfil their trusts and promises.

وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ عَلَىٰ صَلَوَٰتِهِمۡ يُحَافِظُونَ 9

9        And those who strictly guard their (five obligatory) prayers (in congregation and at fixed times).

أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡوَٰرِثُونَ 10

10        Those are indeed the inheri-tors.

ٱلَّذِينَ يَرِثُونَ ٱلۡفِرۡدَوۡسَ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ 11

11        They shall inherit the Paradise. They shall reside there forever.

وَلَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ مِن سُلَٰلَةٖ مِّن طِينٖ 12

12        Indeed, We created man (Adam) out of an extract of clay. (i.e. Adam ( peace be upon him )  who was created from dust. Also mankind eats food products coming from the earth, and this food has nutrients to produce the sexual discharge).

ثُمَّ جَعَلۡنَٰهُ نُطۡفَةٗ فِي قَرَارٖ مَّكِينٖ 13

13        Then We made him (the Children of Adam ( peace be upon him ) ] as nutfah (mixed drops of male and female sexual discharge and placed it) in a safe place (i.e. womb of the woman).

ثُمَّ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلنُّطۡفَةَ عَلَقَةٗ فَخَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡعَلَقَةَ مُضۡغَةٗ فَخَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡمُضۡغَةَ عِظَٰمٗا فَكَسَوۡنَا ٱلۡعِظَٰمَ لَحۡمٗا ثُمَّ أَنشَأۡنَٰهُ خَلۡقًا ءَاخَرَۚ فَتَبَارَكَ ٱللَّهُ أَحۡسَنُ ٱلۡخَٰلِقِينَ 14

14        Then We made it into a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood), then We changed it into a lump of flesh, then We made the lump into bones, then We clothed the bones with flesh, and then We made it into another form and shape (i.e. a child with hearing, sight etc.). So blessed be Allah, the Best of creators! (Some modern embryologists have embraced Islam inspired by this Verse). (Also Surah At-Tin:4)

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُم بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ لَمَيِّتُونَ 15

15        Then after that, you will surely die.

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ تُبۡعَثُونَ 16

16        Then you will, surely, be resur-rected on the Day of Resurrection.

وَلَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمۡ سَبۡعَ طَرَآئِقَ وَمَا كُنَّا عَنِ ٱلۡخَلۡقِ غَٰفِلِينَ 17

17        And, indeed, We have created above you seven heavens (one over the other), and We are never unaware of Our creation.

وَأَنزَلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءَۢ بِقَدَرٖ فَأَسۡكَنَّٰهُ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰ ذَهَابِۢ بِهِۦ لَقَٰدِرُونَ 18

18        And We sent down from the sky the rain water in a (suitable) quantity, and We stored it in the earth (for a long period). We are Able to take away this water from you (by penetrating it deep into the earth so that you cannot reach it).

فَأَنشَأۡنَا لَكُم بِهِۦ جَنَّٰتٖ مِّن نَّخِيلٖ وَأَعۡنَٰبٖ لَّكُمۡ فِيهَا فَوَٰكِهُ كَثِيرَةٞ وَمِنۡهَا تَأۡكُلُونَ 19

19        Then We produced with it for you gardens of palm trees and grapes. There is plenty of fruit for you in them and some of that you eat.

وَشَجَرَةٗ تَخۡرُجُ مِن طُورِ سَيۡنَآءَ تَنۢبُتُ بِٱلدُّهۡنِ وَصِبۡغٖ لِّلۡأٓكِلِينَ 20

20        And olive tree which grows on Mount Sinai, which produces oil and is an enjoyable sauce for the eaters (during their meals).

وَإِنَّ لَكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمِ لَعِبۡرَةٗۖ نُّسۡقِيكُم مِّمَّا فِي بُطُونِهَا وَلَكُمۡ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ كَثِيرَةٞ وَمِنۡهَا تَأۡكُلُونَ 21

21        And, indeed, there is a lesson for you in the cattle. We give you to drink (milk) from their bellies. And there are many other benefits for you in them and some of them you eat too.

وَعَلَيۡهَا وَعَلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ تُحۡمَلُونَ 22

22        And on them, and on the ships you are carried.

وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا نُوحًا إِلَىٰ قَوۡمِهِۦ فَقَالَ يَٰقَوۡمِ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنۡ إِلَٰهٍ غَيۡرُهُۥٓۚ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ 23

23        And, indeed, We sent Nuh ( peace be upon him )  to his people, and he said: “O my people! Worship Allah! You have no other God but Him. Will you then not fear (Allah)?”

فَقَالَ ٱلۡمَلَؤُاْ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِن قَوۡمِهِۦ مَا هَٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُكُمۡ يُرِيدُ أَن يَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَلَوۡ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَأَنزَلَ مَلَٰٓئِكَةٗ مَّا سَمِعۡنَا بِهَٰذَا فِيٓ ءَابَآئِنَا ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ 24

24        But the leaders of his people who disbelieved said: “He is just a human being like you wishing to have superiority over you. If Allah willed, He would have sent down angels (to do this job). We never heard such a thing from our forefathers.

إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا رَجُلُۢ بِهِۦ جِنَّةٞ فَتَرَبَّصُواْ بِهِۦ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ 25

25        “He is only a man with mad-ness. So wait for a while (till his death).”

قَالَ رَبِّ ٱنصُرۡنِي بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ 26

26        Nuh ( peace be upon him )  said: “O my Creator! Help me since they deny me.”

فَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَيۡهِ أَنِ ٱصۡنَعِ ٱلۡفُلۡكَ بِأَعۡيُنِنَا وَوَحۡيِنَا فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَمۡرُنَا وَفَارَ ٱلتَّنُّورُ فَٱسۡلُكۡ فِيهَا مِن كُلّٖ زَوۡجَيۡنِ ٱثۡنَيۡنِ وَأَهۡلَكَ إِلَّا مَن سَبَقَ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ مِنۡهُمۡۖ وَلَا تُخَٰطِبۡنِي فِي ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓاْ إِنَّهُم مُّغۡرَقُونَ 27

27        So We revealed to him (saying): “Construct the boat under Our Eyes and under Our Guidance. So when Our Command comes, and water gushes out from the land, then take two of each kind (male and female) to ride in your boat and also your family except those against whom the Command (for drowning) has already been issued. And (at the time of torment) don’t talk to Me regarding the wrong-doers since all of them are going to be drowned.”
