Ayahs 161–180 · Makki · 182 Ayahs · Surah 37

فَإِنَّكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡبُدُونَ 161

So indeed, you [disbelievers] and whatever you worship

مَآ أَنتُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ بِفَٰتِنِينَ 162

You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him

إِلَّا مَنۡ هُوَ صَالِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ 163

Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire

وَمَامِنَّآ إِلَّا لَهُۥ مَقَامٞ مَّعۡلُومٞ 164

[The angels say], "There is not among us any except that he has a known position

وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ 165

And indeed, we are those who line up [for prayer]

وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحُونَ 166

And indeed, we are those who exalt Allah

وَإِن كَانُواْ لَيَقُولُونَ 167

And indeed, the disbelievers used to say

لَوۡ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكۡرٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ 168

If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples

لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ 169

We would have been the chosen servants of Allah

فَكَفَرُواْ بِهِۦۖ فَسَوۡفَ يَعۡلَمُونَ 170

But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know

وَلَقَدۡ سَبَقَتۡ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ 171

And Our word has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers

إِنَّهُمۡ لَهُمُ ٱلۡمَنصُورُونَ 172

[That] indeed, they would be those given victory

وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبُونَ 173

And [that] indeed, Our soldiers will be those who overcome

فَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ 174

So, [O Muhammad], leave them for a time

وَأَبۡصِرۡهُمۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ 175

And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see

أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ 176

Then for Our punishment are they impatient

فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمۡ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ 177

But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned

وَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ 178

And leave them for a time

وَأَبۡصِرۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ 179

And see, for they are going to see

سُبۡحَٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلۡعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ 180

Exalted is your Lord, the Lord of might, above what they describe
