we would have certainly been Allah’s chosen servants.”

Then (once the divine book came to them,) they disbelieved in it. So, very soon they will come to know.

And Our Word has already come to pass in favor of Our servants, the messengers

(that) they are the ones who will be supported,

and verily it is Our army (of chosen servants) that prevails.

So, withdraw your attention from them for some time.

But, watch them. They shall soon see (the reality).

Are they asking for Our punishment to come sooner?

So, when it will descend in their courtyard, then, evil will be the morning of those warned.

So, withdraw your attention from them for some time,

and watch. They shall soon see (the reality).

Pure is your Lord, the Lord of all might and honor, from what they describe

and Salām be on the messengers

and praised is Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.
