(This is) a book sent down to you. Therefore, your heart must not be straitened because of it. (It is revealed to you) so that you may warn through it, and it may be an advice for the believers.

(O humankind,) follow what has been sent down to you from your Lord, and do not follow any masters other than Him. Little you heed to advice!

How many a town We have destroyed! Our punishment came upon them at night or when they were having a nap at midday.

So, when Our punishment came upon them, they could say nothing but cry, “We were wrongdoers indeed.”

Then, having full knowledge, We shall tell them the whole story, as We were never far from them.

The Weighing (of deeds) on that day is definite. As for those whose scales are heavy, they will be the successful ones.

But those whose scales are light, they are the ones who have brought loss to themselves, because they did not do justice to Our verses.

We established you on earth, and created in it means of living for you. Little you appreciate.
