> 67. al-Mulk: The Kingdom
> 
> 1 Blessed is He in Whose hand is the Sovereignty, and, He is Able to do all things. 
> 
> 2 Who hath created life and death that He may try you which of you is best in conduct; and He is the Mighty, the Forgiving, 
> 
> 3 Who hath created seven heavens in harmony. Thou (Muhammad) canst see no fault in the Beneficent One's creation; then look again: Canst thou see any rifts ? 
> 
> 4 Then look again and yet again, thy sight will return unto thee weakened and made dim. 
> 
> 5 And verily We have beautified the world's heaven with lamps, and We have made them missiles for the devils, and for them We have prepared the doom of flame. 
> 
> 6 And for those who disbelieve in their Lord there is the doom of hell, a hapless journey's end! 
> 
> 7 When they are flung therein they hear its roaring as it boileth up, 
> 
> 8 As it would burst with rage. Whenever a (fresh) host is flung therein the wardens thereof ask them: Came there unto you no warner ? 
> 
> 9 They say: Yea, verily, a warner came unto us; but we denied and said: Allah hath naught revealed; ye are in naught but a great error. 
> 
> 10 And they say: Had we been wont to listen or have sense, we had not been among the dwellers in the flames. 
> 
> 11 So they acknowledge their sins; but far removed (from mercy) are the dwellers in the flames. 
> 
> 12 Lo! those who fear their Lord in secret, theirs will be forgiveness and a great reward. 
> 
> 13 And keep your opinion secret or proclaim it, lo! He is Knower of all that is in the breasts (of men). 
> 
> 14 Should He not know what He created ? And He is the Subtile, the Aware. 
> 
> 15 He it is Who hath made the earth subservient unto you, so Walk in the paths thereof and eat of His providence. And unto Him will be the resurrection (of the dead). 
> 
> 16 Have ye taken security from Him Who is in the heaven that He will not cause the earth to swallow you when lo! it is convulsed ? 
> 
> 17 Or have ye taken security from Him Who is in the heaven that He will not let loose on you a hurricane ? But ye shall know the manner of My warning. 
> 
> 18 And verily those before them denied, then (see) the manner of My wrath (with them)! 
> 
> 19 Have they not seen the birds above them spreading out their wings and closing them ? Naught upholdeth them save the Beneficent. Lo! He is Seer of all things. 
> 
> 20 Or who is he that will be an army unto you to help you instead of the Beneficent ? The disbelievers are in naught but illusion. 
> 
> 21 Or who is he that will provide for you if He should withhold His providence ? Nay, but they are set in pride and frowardness. 
> 
> 22 Is he who goeth groping on his face more rightly guided, or he who walketh upright on a straight road ? 
> 
> 23 Say (unto them, O Muhammad): He it is who gave you being, and hath assigned unto you ears and eyes and hearts. Small thanks give ye! 
> 
> 24 Say: He it is Who multiplieth you in the earth, and unto Whom ye will be gathered. 
> 
> 25 And they say: When (will) this promise (be fulfilled), if ye are truthful ? 
> 
> 26 Say: The knowledge is with Allah only, and I am but a plain warner; 
> 
> 27 But when they see it nigh, the faces of those who disbelieve will be awry, and it will be said (unto them): This is that for which ye used to call. 
> 
> 28 Say (O Muhammad): Have ye thought: Whether Allah causeth me (Muhammad) and those with me to perish or hath mercy on us, still, who will protect the disbelievers from a painful doom ? 
> 
> 29 Say: He is the Beneficent. In Him we believe and in Him we put our trust. And ye will soon know who it is that is in error manifest. 
> 
> 30 Say: Have ye thought: If (all) your water were to disappear into the earth, who then could bring you gushing water ?
