الجاثية

Ḥā, Meem.

The revelation of the Book is from Allāh, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

Indeed, within the heavens and earth are signs for the believers.

And in the creation of yourselves and what He disperses of moving creatures are signs for people who are certain [in faith].

And [in] the alternation of night and day and [in] what Allāh sends down from the sky of provision [i.e., rain] and gives life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and [in His] directing of the winds are signs for a people who reason.

These are the verses of Allāh which We recite to you in truth. Then in what statement after Allāh and His verses will they believe?

Woe to every sinful liar

Who hears the verses of Allāh recited to him, then persists arrogantly as if he had not heard them. So give him tidings of a painful punishment.

And when he knows anything of Our verses, he takes them in ridicule. Those will have a humiliating punishment.

Before them is Hell, and what they had earned will not avail them at all nor what they had taken besides Allāh as allies. And they will have a great punishment.
