    وَفِي عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ الرِّيحَ الْعَقِيمَ

    And in 'Aad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind

  42. 51:42

    مَا تَذَرُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَالرَّمِيمِ

    It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins

  43. 51:43

    فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا مِنْ قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا مُنْتَصِرِينَ

    And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves

  46. 51:46

    وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِنْ قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمًا فَاسِقِينَ

    And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient

  47. 51:47

    وَالسَّمَاءَ بَنَيْنَاهَا بِأَيْدٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ

    And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander

  48. 51:48

    وَالْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَاهَا فَنِعْمَ الْمَاهِدُونَ

    And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer

  49. 51:49

    وَمِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ

    And of all things We created two mates; perhaps you will remember

    فَفِرُّوا إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّي لَكُمْ مِنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ

    So flee to Allah. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner

  51. 51:51

    وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ ۖ إِنِّي لَكُمْ مِنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ

    And do not make [as equal] with Allah another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner

  52. 51:52

    كَذَٰلِكَ مَا أَتَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ

    Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, "A magician or a madman

  53. 51:53

    أَتَوَاصَوْا بِهِ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ

    Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people

  54. 51:54

    فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَا أَنْتَ بِمَلُومٍ

    So leave them, [O Muhammad], for you are not to be blamed

  55. 51:55

    وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ الذِّكْرَىٰ تَنْفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

    And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers

  56. 51:56

    وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ

    And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me

  57. 51:57

    مَا أُرِيدُ مِنْهُمْ مِنْ رِزْقٍ وَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ يُطْعِمُونِ

    I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me

  58. 51:58

    إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِينُ

    Indeed, it is Allah who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength

  59. 51:59

    فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا ذَنُوبًا مِثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَابِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ

    And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their predecessors, so let them not impatiently urge Me

  60. 51:60

    فَوَيْلٌ لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ يَوْمِهِمُ الَّذِي يُوعَدُونَ

    And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised
