Page 2 of 39 Then We said, "O Adam, you and your wife, both dwell in the Garden and eat both of you freely with pleasure and delight of things therein where from you will, but do not go near this tree; otherwise you shall become transgressors." After a time Satan tempted them with that tree to disobey Our Command and brought them out of the state they were in, and We decreed, "Now, go down all of you from here; you are enemies of one another and there is for you in the earth an abode and a provision for a time." At that time Adam learnt appropriate words from his Lord and repented, and his Lord accepted his repentance, for He is Oft-Returning with compassion and very Merciful. We said: "Get down all of you from this place (the Paradise), then whenever there comes to you Guidance from Me, and whoever follows My Guidance, there shall be no fear on them, nor shall they grieve. But those who refuse to accept it and defy Our Revelations, they shall be doomed to the Fire wherein they shall remain for ever. { 421-424} 22 - سورة طه ن م ف ع ب تا يا د ها ل ف لض ي و ١ ا ما ف م ك ن يت ا ي ي ن مى د ه ١ لا قا طب هاا ه نما ع يم ج م ك ض ع ب ض ع بل و د ع لا ق ب ر ۰۰۱۲۴ و ن م ض ر ع ا ن ع ير كذ نا ف ه ل ة ش يع ما ك ن ض و ه ر ش ح ن م و ية م يق لاى م ع ا ۰۰۲۳ ا لى ق ش يم ۰۰۱۲۶ و كل ذ ك م و ي لاى س ن ت ١ لا ق كل ذ ك ك ت ت اا ن ت ي اا ه ت يس ن ف ۰۰۱۲۵ مل ين ت ر ش حى م ع ا و د ق ت ن كا ر يص ب And (Allah) said: "Get down, both of you, (that is, man and Satan), and be out of it (the Paradise); each of you shall be an enemy to the other. Then if there comes to you guidance from Me, then whosoever follows My guidance shall neither go astray nor fall into distress and misery. But whosoever turns away from this Admonition from Me shall have a straitened life, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Resurrection, where-upon he will say: "O my Lord! Why have You raised me up blind while I had sight in the world? "Allah will say: "Like this Our Signs came to you and you ignored them. So shall you be ignored this Day".

But then the people of the town showed ingratitude towards Allah for His bounties, so Allah afflicted them with hunger and fear in punishment for their evil deeds. Most certainly a Messenger came to them from among them; but they rejected him, calling him a liar. Therefore chastisement seized them while they engaged in wrong-doing. { 53} 42 - سورة الكهف ۰۰۵۹ و ك لتى ر ق لا م ه ن ك ل ه اا م لا و م ل ظ وا ن ل ع ج مهكل ه مل دع و من And these towns - We destroyed them when they committed iniquities.

Each Prophet asked them: Will you do so even if we were to show you a way better than the way of your forefathers? They answered: We disbelieve in the religion with which you have been sent." Then We exacted retribution from them. So do consider the end of those who gave the lie (to the Prophets).

But when misfortune befell them from Us why did they not humble themselves? Their hearts had hardened and Satan had made their deeds seem fair to them. So, when they forgot what they had been reminded of, We opened the gates of all things so that while they rejoiced in what they had been granted We seized them suddenly and they were plunged into utter despair. Thus the last remnant of those wrongdoing people was cut off. All praise is for Allah, the Lord of the entire universe. { 42-45} 14 - سورة فصلت و ا م لا و ر ي ن ا ه للا يذ لا ١ ا م ا ف دا ع و ر ب ك ت سا فةيفض ر ا لار ي غب ق ح لا وا و لا ق ن م د ش اا نم ة و ق ا ن ل س ر ا ف مه ي ل ع ا ح ير ا ر ص ر ص يف ۰۰۱۵ و ا و نا ك ا نت ي اب ن و د ح ج ي ١ م ه ق ل خ و ه د ش ا م ه نم ة و ق و با ذ ع ل ة رخ ا لا ى ز خ ا و م ه ١ ما ي ا تا سح ن م ه ق يذ ن ل با ذ ع ي زخ لا يف ةو ي ح لا ا ي ن دلا وا م ا و م ث م ه ن ي د ه فاو ب ح ت سا فى م ع لاى ل عى د ه لا م ه ت ذ خ ا ف ة قع صبا ذ ع لا ۰۰۱۶ ا ل ن و ر ص ن ي ۰۰۱۸ وا ن ي ج ن ن يذ لاا و ن م ا وا و نا ك و ق ت ين ۰۰۱۷ ن و ه لاا مبا و نا ك و بس ك ين As for Ad, they waxed proud in the land without justification and said: Who is greater than we in strength? Did they not see that Allah, Who created them, is greater in strength than them? They continued to deny Our Signs, whereupon We sent upon them a fierce wind on inauspicious days that We might make them taste a disgracing torment in the life of this world. And surely the chastisement of the Hereafter is even more disgracing. There will be none to help them there.

Page 16 of 39 As for Thamud, We bestowed guidance upon them, but they preferred to remain blind rather than be guided. At last a humiliating scourge overtook them on account of their misdeeds. Yet We saved those who believed and were Godfearing. { 421-31} 44 - سورة هود و ا م ١ ى لا ن و ع رف و ه ى ا ل ما و ع ب تا ف ر م ا ن و ع رف ۰۰۹۶ و د ق لا ن ل س ر اى س و ما نت ي اب و ن ط ل س يب مد و س ئب د رو لا ١ م د ق ي ه م و ق م و ي ة م يق لا م ه د ر و ا ف را نلا ۰۰۹۷ ر م ا ن و ع رف د يش رب كل ذ نم ء ا ب ن ا ۰۰۹۹ س ئب د ف رلا د و ف ر م لا ١ و ا و عب ت ا يف هذ ه ة ن ع ل و م و ي ة م يق لا ۰۰۹۸ د و ر و م لا وا م م ه ن م ل ظ و نك لا و م ل ظ م ه س ف ن ا ا م ف ت ن غ ا ۰۰۰۰ ى ر ق لا ه ص ق ن ك ي ل عا ه نم م ى ا ق و د يص حو وا م م ه و دا ز ر ي غ ١ م ه ن ع م ه ت هل ا يت لا ن و ع د ي نمن و ده للا نم ء ي شا م ل ء ا ج ر م ا ك ب ر نا يف ۰۰۱۰۲ نا ه ذ خ ا م يل ا د يد ش ١ و كل ذ ك ذ خ ا ك ب ر ا ذا ذ خ اى ر ق لا و يه ة ملا ظ ۰۰۱۰۱ ب يب ت ت ه ل سا نلا و كل ذ م و ي ١ كل ذ م و ي ع و م ج م ١ كل ذ ة ي ا ل ن م ل فا خ با ذ ع ة رخ ا لا ۰۰۱۰۴ وا م ه ر خ ؤ نا لا ل ج ال و د ع من ۰۰۱۰۳ د و ه ش م And indeed We sent Moses with Our signs and with a clear authority to Pharaoh and his chiefs. But they obeyed the command of Pharaoh even though Pharaoh's command was not rightly-directed. He will go ahead of his people on the Day of Resurrection, and will lead them into the Fire. What a wretched destination to be led to! They were pursued by a curse in this world and so will they be on the Day of Resurrection. What an evil reward will they receive! That is an account of some towns which We narrate to you. Of them some are still standing and some have been mown down. We did Monotheism: Allah's Ways of Dealing With Nations (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 16

Page 17 of 39 not wrong them; it is rather they who wronged themselves. And when the command of your Lord came to pass, the gods besides Allah whom they had called upon, did not avail them in the least. They added nothing to them except ruin. Such is the seizing of your Lord that when He does seize the towns immersed in wrong-doing, His seizing is painful, terrible. Surely in that is a sign for him who fears the chastisement of the Hereafter. That will be a Day when all men shall be mustered together; that will be a Day when whatever happens will be witnessed by all. Nor shall We withhold it except till an appointed term. { 25-22} 12 - سورة غافر ا و نا ك ر ث ك ا م ه نم و ١ م ل ف اا و ر يس ييفض ر ا لاا و ر ظ ن ي ف ف ي ك نا ك ة بقا ع ن يذ لا نم مهل ب ق ا م ل ف م ه ت ء ا ج م ه ل س ر ۰۰۸۲ د ش ا ة و ق و ا را ث ا يف ض ر ا لا ا م ف ى ن غ ا م ه ن ع ا م ا و نا ك و بس ك ي ا م ل فا و ا را ن س ا ب ۰۰۸۳ ت ن ي ب لابا و حر فا مب م ه د نع ن مم لع لا و قا ح مهبا ما و نا ك هب و ءز ه ت س ية م ل ف ك ي م ه ع ف ن ي م ه نا م ياا م لا و ا ر ۰۰۸۴ ا و لا قا ن م اه للاب ه د ح و وا ن ر ف كا مبا ن ك هب ن يكر ش م ۰۰۸۵ و رس خ كلا ن ه و رف ك لان ١ ت ن سه للا يت لا د ق ت ل خ يف هدا بع ١ ا ن س ا ب Have they not travelled in the land and seen what was the end of those who had gone before them? They were more numerous and greater in strength and left behind more splendid traces in the land. Yet their attainments did not avail them. When their Messengers came to them with Clear Signs, they arrogantly exulted in whatever knowledge they had. They were then encompassed by what they had mocked. When they saw Our chastisement, they said: We have come to believe in Allah, the Only One, and we reject all what we had associated (with Allah Monotheism: Allah's Ways of Dealing With Nations (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 17

Page 18 of 39 in His Divinity)". But their believing after they had seen Our chastisement did not avail them. That has been Allah's Way concerning His servants. And the unbelievers courted utter loss, then and there. { 444-442} 41 - سورة النحل و ب ر ض ه للاا ل ث م ة ي ر ق ت نا ك ة نم ا ا ي ة ن ى ق زر ا ه يد غ ر ا ها د غ ر ن ما ك مف ك ف ن اب ت رم ع و د ق ل م ه ء ا ج ل و س ر م ه ن م ه و ب ذ ك ف ۰۰۱۱۲ ه للاا ه قا ذ ا ف ه للا سا بلع و ج لا وف و خ لاا مبا و نا ك ن و ع ن ص ي ۰۰۱۱۳ م ه ذ خ ا ف با ذ ع لا و م ه ن و مل ظ Allah sets forth the parable of (the people of) a town who were secure and well content and whose sustenance came in abundance from every quarter. But then the people of the town showed ingratitude towards Allah for His bounties, so Allah afflicted them with hunger and fear in punishment for their evil deeds. Most certainly a Messenger came to them from among them; but they rejected him, calling him a liar. Therefore chastisement seized them while they engaged in wrong-doing. { 53-52} 22 - سورة القصص وا ن ك ١ ك لت ف م ه نك س م م ل ن ك س ت ن م مهد ع با لاا ل يل ق ١ و م كا ن ك ل ه ا نم ة ي ر ق ت رط با ه ت ش يع م وا م ١ وا م نا ك ك ب ر كل ه مى ر ق لاى ت ح ث ع ب ي يفا ه م اا ل و س را و ل ت ي مه ي ل عا نت ي ا ۰۰۵۸ ن ح ن ن يثر و لا ۰۰۵۹ ا ن كيكل ه مى ر ق لاا لا وا ه ل ه ا ن و مل ظ And how many a town have We destroyed whose inhabitants exulted on account of their affluence.

Page 19 of 39 Your Lord would not destroy a town until He had sent to its centre a Messenger who would recite to them Our verses. Nor would We destroy any town unless its inhabitants were iniquitous. { 41-45} 41 - سورة اإلسراء و ا م ا ن ك ١ و ا ل رز ت ة رزا و ر ز و ى ر خ ا ١ و ن م ل ض ا م نا ف لض ي ا ه ي ل ع ١ ن م ى د ت ها ا م نا ف يد ت ه ي هس ف نل و ا ذا ا ن د ر ا ن ا كل ه ن ة ي ر قا ن ر م اا ه يف ر ت ما و ق س ف فا ه يف ق ح فا ه ي ل ع ل و ق لا ۰۰۱۵ ن يب ذ ع مى ت ح ث ع ب نا ل و س ر ۰۰۱۷ وى ف ك ك ب ربب و ن ذب هدا بعا ر يب خا ر يص ب ١ و م كا ن ك ل ه ا نمن و ر ق لا نمد ع ب ح و ن ۰۰۱۶ ا ه ن ر م د فا ر يم د ت He who follows the Right Way will do so to his own advantage; and he who strays will incur his own loss. No one will bear another's burden. And never do We punish any people until We send a Messenger (to make the Truth distinct from falsehood). When We decide to destroy a town We command the affluent among them, whereupon they commit sins in it, then the decree (of chastisement) becomes due against them and thereafter We destroy that town utterly. Many a generation has been destroyed by Our command since Noah's time. Your Lord is well aware and fully observant of the sins of His servants. { 422-31} 1 - سورة األعراف م ثا ن ل د ب نا ك مة ئ ي سلا ۰۰۹۴ و ا ما ن ل س ر ا يف ة ي ر ق ن م يب ن ا لا ا ن ذ خ اا ه ل ه اء ا س ا ب لاب وء ا ر ضلا م ه ل ع ل ن و ع ر ض ي و و ل ن ا ل ه ا ۰۰۹۵ ة ن س ح لاى ت حا و ف ع وا و لا ق د ق س ما ن ء ا ب ا ء ا ر ضلا و ء ا ر سلا م ه ن ذ خ ا ف ة ت غ ب و م ها ل ن و ر ع ش ي ى ر ق لا ا و ن م ا و ا و ق تا ا ن ح ت ف ل مه ي ل ع ت ك ر ب ن م ء ا م سلا و ض ر ا لا و نك ل ا و ب ذ ك م ه ن ذ خ ا ف ا مب ا و نا ك و ا نم ا ل ه ا ى ر ق لا ن ا م ه يت ا ي ۰۰۹۷ نم ا ف ا ل ه ا ى ر ق لا ن ا م ه يت ا ي ا ن س ا ب ا تا ي ب و م ه و م ى ا نن ۰۰۹۶ و بس ك ي و ا م لد ه ي ن يذ لل ۰۰۹۹ ا ل ف ن م ا ي ر ك مه للاا لا م و ق لا و رس خ لان ١ ا و نم ا ف ا ر ك مه للا ۰۰۹۸ ا ن س ا بى ح ض و م ه ن و ب ع ل ي Monotheism: Allah's Ways of Dealing With Nations (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 19

Then We changed adversity into ease until they throve and said: 'Our forefathers had also seen both adversity and prosperity.' So We suddenly seized them without their even perceiving it. Had the people of those towns believed and been God-fearing, We would certainly have opened up to them blessings from the heavens and the earth; but they rejected [their Prophets] and so We seized them for their deeds. So, do the people of the towns feel secure that Our punishment will not come to them at night while they are asleep? Or, do the people of the towns feel secure that Our punishment will not come to them by daylight while they are at play? Do they feel secure against the Plan of Allah None can feel secure against the Plan of Allah except the people who are the utter losers. Has it not, then, become plain to those who have inherited the earth in the wake of the former generations that, had We so willed, We could have afflicted them for their sins, (they, however, are heedless to basic facts and so) We seal their hearts so that they hear nothing. To those [earlier] communities - some of whose stories We relate to you - there had indeed come Messengers with clear proofs, but they would not believe what they had once rejected as false. Thus it is that Allah seals the hearts of those who deny the truth. We did not find most of them true to their covenants; indeed We found most of them transgressors.

And their companions from among the humans will say: 'Our Lord! We did indeed benefit from one another and now have reached the term which You had set for us.' Thereupon Allah will say: 'The Fire is now your abode, and therein you shall abide.' Only those whom Allah wills shall escape the Fire. Surely your Lord is All-Wise, All-Knowing. In this manner We will make the wrong-doers friends of each other (in the Hereafter) because they earned (evil together in the world). (Then Allah will also ask them): 'O assembly of jinn and men! Did there not come to you Messengers from among yourselves, relating to you My signs, and warning you of the encounter of this your Day (of Judgement)?' They will say: 'Yes, we bear witness Monotheism: Allah's Ways of Dealing With Nations (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 21

(They will be made to bear this witness to show that) it is not the way of your Lord to destroy cities unjustly while their people were unaware of the Truth.

Thus did We test them because of their disobedience. And recall when a party of them said: 'Why do you admonish a people whom Allah is about to destroy or punish severely?' They said: 'We admonish them in order to be able to offer an excuse before Your Lord, and in the hope that they will guard against disobedience.' Then, when they forgot what they had been exhorted, We saved those who forbade evil and afflicted the wrong-doers with a grievous chastisement because of their evildoing. Enjoin all that is Good, Forbid all that is evil and thus guard against the mischief that will not only bring punishment to the wrong-doers among you. { 25-21} 2 - سورة األنفال وا و م ل عا ن ا ه للا ل و ح ي ن ي ب ١ ا ه ي ا ي ن يذ لااو ن م اا و ب يج ت ساه لل ول و س رللا ذا م كا ع دا مل م ك يي ح ي و ١ وا و ق تا ة ن تفا ل ن ب يص ت ن يذ لاا و م ل ظ م ك نم ة ص ا خ ۰۰۲۴ ء ر م لا و هب ل ق و ه ن اه ي لا ن و ر ش ح ت ۰۰۲۵ ا و م ل عا ن ا ه للا د يد شبا قع لا Monotheism: Allah's Ways of Dealing With Nations (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 24

Consequently, by Allah's grace, they routed the unbelievers, and David killed Goliath; and Allah gave him kingship and wisdom and taught him whatever other things He willed. And if Allah had not been repelling one set of people by means of another, the earth would have been filled with chaos. But Allah is bountiful to the world (and so repels chaos in this way).

Moses came to them with Clear Signs but they waxed arrogant in the land although they could not have outstripped (Us). So We seized each for their sin.

Allah would not wrong them, but it is they who wronged themselves. { 12-13} 3 - سورة التوبة و ع ت م ت سا فة مهقا ل خب ١ ن يذ لا ك نم م كل ب قا و نا ك د ش ا م ك نم ة و ق و ر ث ك اا لا و م ا وا دا ل و ا ١ م ت ع ت م ت سا ف م كقا ل خبا م ك ع ت م ت سا ن يذ لا نم م كل ب ق مهقا ل خب و م ت ض خ يذ لا كا و ضا خ م ل ا مهت ا ي ا ب ن ن يذ لا ۰۰۶۹ و ك ى لو ا م ه و رس خ لا ١ ك ى لو ا ت طب ح م ه لا م ع ايفا ي ن دلا وة رخ ا لا م ه ت ت ا ١ و م و ق م يه ر با و ب ح ص ا ن ي د م و ت كف ت ؤ م لا ١ نم مهل ب ق م و ق ح و ن و دا ع و د و م ث ۰۰۷۰ ا م ف نا ك ه للا م ه مل ظ يل و نك لا و نا ك م ه س ف ن ا ن و مل ظ ي ١ م ه ل س رت ن ي ب لاب You are behaving just like those who went before you: they had more power than you, and possessed greater riches and had more children than you: they had enjoyed their portion of the good things of the worldly life and you, too, have enjoyed your portion of the good things like them: you are also engaged in idle discussions like the discussions they held. Consequently in the end everything they did, proved vain in this world and shall be vain in the Next World: surely they are the people who are the losers Has not the story reached them of those who had gone before them-the people of Noah, tribes of `Ad and Thamud, the people of Abraham and the inhabitants of Midian and of the overturned cities?

Whenever a man does good, He multiplies it two-fold, and bestows out of His grace a mighty reward. { 422} 4 - سورة آل عمران ۰۰۱۰۸ وا م ه للا د ير يا م ل ظ ن يم ل ع ل ل ١ ك لت ت ي اه للاا ه و ل ت ن ك ي ل ع ق ح لاب These are the messages of Allah which We recite to you in truth, and Allah desires no wrong to the people of the world.

And if such were there, they were only a few whom We had saved from those generations, or else the wrong-doers kept pursuing the ease and comfort which had been conferred upon them, thus losing themselves in sinfulness. And your Lord is not such as would wrongfully destroy human habitations while their inhabitants are righteous. { 425-421} 4 - سورة آل عمران و ك ى لو ا م ه ١ و ن ك ت ل م ك ن م ة م ا ن و ع د يى لار ي خ لا و ن و ر م ا يف و ر ع م لاب و ن و ه ن ين عر ك ن م لا و ك ى لو ا م ه ل ١ و ا ل ا و ن و ك ت ن يذ لا ك ا و ق ر ف ت و ا و ف ل ت خا نم د ع ب ا م م ه ء ا ج ت ن ي ب لا ۰۰۱۰۴ ن و حل ف م لا ۰۰۱۰۵ با ذ ع م يظ عد And from among you there must be a party who invite people to all that is good and enjoin the doing of all that is right and forbid the doing of all that is wrong.
