31:1   Alif Lam Meem.

31:2   These (are) Verses (of) the Book the Wise,

31:3   A guidance and a mercy for the good-doers,

31:4   Those who establish the prayer and give zakah and they, in the Hereafter, [they] believe firmly.

31:5   Those (are) on guidance from their Lord, and those [they] (are) the successful.

31:6   And of the mankind (is he) who purchases, idle tales to mislead from (the) path (of) Allah without knowledge, and takes it (in) ridicule. Those for them (is) a punishment humiliating.

31:7   And when are recited to him Our Verses, he turns away arrogantly as if not he (had) heard them, as if in his ears (is) deafness. So give him tidings of a punishment painful.

31:8   Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them (are) Gardens (of) Delight,

31:9   (To) abide forever in it. (The) Promise (of) Allah (is) true. And He (is) the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

31:10   He created the heavens without pillars that you see and has cast in the earth firm mountains lest it (might) shake with you, and He dispersed in it from every creature. And We sent down from the sky water then We caused to grow therein of every kind noble.

31:11   This (is the) creation (of) Allah. So show Me what have created those from besides Him. Nay, the wrongdoers (are) in error clear.

31:12   And verily, We gave Luqman the wisdom that, "Be grateful to Allah." And whoever (is) grateful then only he is grateful for himself. And whoever (is) ungrateful, then indeed, Allah (is) Free of need, Praiseworthy.

31:13   And when said Luqman to his son while he (was) instructing him, "O my son! (Do) not associate partners with Allah. Indeed, associating partners (is) surely an injustice great."

31:14   And We have enjoined (upon) man for his parents - carried him his mother (in) weakness upon weakness, and his weaning (is) in two years that "Be grateful to Me and to your parents; towards Me (is) the destination.

31:15   But if they strive against you on that you associate partners with Me what not you have of it any knowledge, then (do) not obey both of them. But accompany them in the world (with) kindness, and follow (the) path (of him) who turns to Me. Then towards Me (is) your return, then I will inform you of what you used (to) do."

31:16   "O my son! Indeed it, if it be (the) weight (of) a grain of a mustard seed, and it be in a rock or in the heavens or in the earth will bring forth it Allah. Indeed, Allah (is) All-Subtle, All-Aware.

31:17   O my son! Establish the prayer and enjoin [with] the right and forbid from the wrong, and be patient over what befalls you. Indeed, that (is) of the matters (of) determination.

31:18   And (do) not turn your cheek from men and (do) not walk in the earth exultantly. Indeed, Allah (does) not like every self-conceited boaster.

31:19   And be moderate in your pace and lower [of] your voice. Indeed, (the) harshest (of all) sounds (is) surely (the) voice (of) the donkeys."

31:20   Do not you see that Allah has subjected to you whatever (is) in the heavens and whatever (is) in the earth and amply bestowed upon you His Bounties apparent and hidden? But of the people (is he) who disputes about Allah without knowledge, and not guidance and not a book enlightening.

31:21   And when it is said to them, "Follow what (has) revealed," Allah," they say, "Nay, we will follow what we found on it our forefathers." Even if was Shaitaan (to) call them to (the) punishment (of) the Blaze!

31:22   And whoever submits his face to Allah while he (is) a good-doer, then indeed, he has grasped the handhold the most trustworthy. And to Allah (is the) end (of) the matters.

31:23   And whoever disbelieves, let not grieve you his disbelief. To Us (is) their return, then We will inform them of what they did. Indeed, Allah (is) the All-Knower of what (is in) the breasts.

31:24   We grant them enjoyment (for) a little, then We will force them to a punishment severe.

31:25   And if you ask them, "Who created the heavens and the earth?" They will surely say, "Allah." Say, "All praises (are) for Allah." But most of them (do) not know.

31:26   To Allah (belongs) whatever (is) in the heavens and the earth. Indeed, Allah, He (is) Free of need, the Praiseworthy.

31:27   And if whatever (is) in the earth of (the) trees (were) pens and the sea, (to) add to it from after it seven seas, not would be exhausted (the) Words (of) Allah. Indeed, Allah (is) All-Mighty, All-Wise.

31:28   Not (is) your creation and not your resurrection but as a soul single. Indeed, Allah (is) All-Hearer, All-Seer.

31:29   Do not you see that Allah causes to enter the night into the day, and causes to enter the day into the night and has subjected the sun and the moon, each moving for a term appointed, and that Allah of what you do (is) All-Aware.

31:30   That (is) because Allah, He (is) the Truth, and that what they call from besides Him (is) [the] falsehood, and that Allah, He (is) the Most High, the Most Great.

31:31   Do not you see that the ships sail through the sea by (the) Grace (of) Allah that He may show you of His Signs? Indeed, in that surely (are) Signs for everyone (who is) patient, grateful.

31:32   And when covers them a wave like canopies, they call Allah, (being) sincere to Him (in) religion. But when He delivers them to the land then among them (some are) moderate. And not deny Our Signs except every traitor ungrateful.

31:33   O mankind! Fear your Lord and fear a Day not can avail a father [for] his son and not a son, he (can) avail [for] his father anything. Indeed, (the) Promise (of) Allah (is) True, so not let deceive you the life (of) the world and not let deceive you about Allah the deceiver.

31:34   Indeed, Allah, with Him (is the) knowledge (of) the Hour and He sends down the rain, and knows what (is) in the wombs. And not knows any soul what it will earn tomorrow, and not knows any soul in what land it will die. Indeed, Allah (is) All-Knower All-Aware.
