قَالَ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٌ عَلَيَّ مُسۡتَقِيمٌ 41

[Allah] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight

إِنَّ عِبَادِي لَيۡسَ لَكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ سُلۡطَٰنٌ إِلَّا مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلۡغَاوِينَ 42

Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators

وَإِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمَوۡعِدُهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ 43

And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all

لَهَا سَبۡعَةُ أَبۡوَٰبٖ لِّكُلِّ بَابٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ جُزۡءٞ مَّقۡسُومٌ 44

It has seven gates; for every gate is of them a portion designated

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّـٰتٖ وَعُيُونٍ 45

Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs

ٱدۡخُلُوهَا بِسَلَٰمٍ ءَامِنِينَ 46

[Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]

وَنَزَعۡنَا مَا فِي صُدُورِهِم مِّنۡ غِلٍّ إِخۡوَٰنًا عَلَىٰ سُرُرٖ مُّتَقَٰبِلِينَ 47

And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other

لَا يَمَسُّهُمۡ فِيهَا نَصَبٞ وَمَا هُم مِّنۡهَا بِمُخۡرَجِينَ 48

No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed

نَبِّئۡ عِبَادِيٓ أَنِّيٓ أَنَا ٱلۡغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ 49

[O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful

وَأَنَّ عَذَابِي هُوَ ٱلۡعَذَابُ ٱلۡأَلِيمُ 50

And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment

وَنَبِّئۡهُمۡ عَن ضَيۡفِ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ 51

And inform them about the guests of Abraham

إِذۡ دَخَلُواْ عَلَيۡهِ فَقَالُواْ سَلَٰمٗا قَالَ إِنَّا مِنكُمۡ وَجِلُونَ 52

When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful of you

قَالُواْ لَا تَوۡجَلۡ إِنَّا نُبَشِّرُكَ بِغُلَٰمٍ عَلِيمٖ 53

[The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy

قَالَ أَبَشَّرۡتُمُونِي عَلَىٰٓ أَن مَّسَّنِيَ ٱلۡكِبَرُ فَبِمَ تُبَشِّرُونَ 54

He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform

قَالُواْ بَشَّرۡنَٰكَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ فَلَا تَكُن مِّنَ ٱلۡقَٰنِطِينَ 55

They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing

قَالَ وَمَن يَقۡنَطُ مِن رَّحۡمَةِ رَبِّهِۦٓ إِلَّا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ 56

He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray

قَالَ فَمَا خَطۡبُكُمۡ أَيُّهَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ 57

[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers

قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّآ أُرۡسِلۡنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوۡمٖ مُّجۡرِمِينَ 58

They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals

إِلَّآ ءَالَ لُوطٍ إِنَّا لَمُنَجُّوهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ 59

Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all

إِلَّا ٱمۡرَأَتَهُۥ قَدَّرۡنَآ إِنَّهَا لَمِنَ ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ 60

Except his wife." Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind
