أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَفْتَرُونَ

Those are the ones who will have lost themselves, and lost from them is what they used to invent.

(Such) the leaders (are they who have lost their souls) and their families and servants in Paradise and the other believers have inherited all, (and that which they used to invent) that which they used to worship falsely beside Allah (hath failed them) are void and preoccupied with themselves.

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَأَخْبَتُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْجَنَّةِ ۖ هُمْ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ

Indeed, they who have believed and done righteous deeds and humbled themselves to their Lord - those are the companions of Paradise; they will abide eternally therein.

۞ مَثَلُ ٱلْفَرِيقَيْنِ كَٱلْأَعْمَىٰ وَٱلْأَصَمِّ وَٱلْبَصِيرِ وَٱلسَّمِيعِ ۚ هَلْ يَسْتَوِيَانِ مَثَلًا ۚ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ

The example of the two parties is like the blind and deaf, and the seeing and hearing. Are they equal in comparison? Then, will you not remember?

(The similitude of the two parties) the believer and the disbeliever (is as the blind and the deaf) He says: the disbeliever is like the blind person: he does not see the Truth or guidance, and he is also like the deaf person: he does not hear the Truth or guidance (and the seer and the hearer) Allah says: and the believer is like the seer, for he sees the Truth and guidance, just as he is like the hearer, for he hears the Truth and guidance. (Are they equal in similitude?) He says: are the believer and disbeliever equal in obedience and reward (Will ye not then be admonished?) will you not be admonished by the similes of the Qur'an such that you believe?

أَن لَّا تَعْبُدُوٓا۟ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ ۖ إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ أَلِيمٍۢ

That you not worship except Allah. Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a painful day."

27

فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلَأُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن قَوْمِهِۦ مَا نَرَىٰكَ إِلَّا بَشَرًۭا مِّثْلَنَا وَمَا نَرَىٰكَ ٱتَّبَعَكَ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ أَرَاذِلُنَا بَادِىَ ٱلرَّأْىِ وَمَا نَرَىٰ لَكُمْ عَلَيْنَا مِن فَضْلٍۭ بَلْ نَظُنُّكُمْ كَٰذِبِينَ

So the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "We do not see you but as a man like ourselves, and we do not see you followed except by those who are the lowest of us [and] at first suggestion. And we do not see in you over us any merit; rather, we think you are liars."

(The chieftains of his folk) of Noah's folk, (who disbelieved, said: We see thee) O Noah (but a mortal like us, and we see not that any follow you) believe in you (save the most abject among us) the lowly and weak among us, (without reflection) who have manifest weak judgement; it is said that this means: their bad judgement lead them to believe in you. (We behold in you no merit above us) in what you say: you eat and drink just as we do eat and drink (nay, we deem you liars) in what you say.

قَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ أَرَءَيْتُمْ إِن كُنتُ عَلَىٰ بَيِّنَةٍۢ مِّن رَّبِّى وَءَاتَىٰنِى رَحْمَةًۭ مِّنْ عِندِهِۦ فَعُمِّيَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنُلْزِمُكُمُوهَا وَأَنتُمْ لَهَا كَٰرِهُونَ

He said, "O my people have you considered: if I should be upon clear evidence from my Lord while He has given me mercy from Himself but it has been made unapparent to you, should we force it upon you while you are averse to it?

(He said) Noah said: (O my people! Bethink you, if I rely) if I am (on a clear proof from my Lord) on a clear exposition which has come down from my Lord (and there hath come unto me a mercy from His presence) He favoured me with prophethood and Islam, (and it hath been made obscure to you) and my prophethood and Islam have been made obscure to you, (can we compel you to accept it) can we inspire it or teach it to you (when ye are averse thereto) when you are deniers of it?

وَيَٰقَوْمِ لَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مَالًا ۖ إِنْ أَجْرِىَ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَمَآ أَنَا۠ بِطَارِدِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ ۚ إِنَّهُم مُّلَٰقُوا۟ رَبِّهِمْ وَلَٰكِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰكُمْ قَوْمًۭا تَجْهَلُونَ

And O my people, I ask not of you for it any wealth. My reward is not but from Allah. And I am not one to drive away those who have believed. Indeed, they will meet their Lord, but I see that you are a people behaving ignorantly.

(And O my people! I ask of you no wealth) price (therefore) in exchange for believing in Allah's divine Oneness. (My reward is the concern only of Allah, and I am not going to thrust away those who believe) because of what you say. (Lo! they have to meet their Lord) and report me to Him, (but I see you a folk that are ignorant) of the command of Allah.

وَيَٰقَوْمِ مَن يَنصُرُنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهِ إِن طَرَدتُّهُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ

And O my people, who would protect me from Allah if I drove them away? Then will you not be reminded?

(And, O my people! who would deliver me) who would save me (from Allah) from Allah's chastisement (if I thrust them away) due to what you say? (Will ye not then reflect) will you not be admonished by what I say and hence believe?
