35. Sura Fatir

The Quranic Text & Ali’s Version:


الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ...

35:7 [Ali] For those who reject Allah, is a terrible Penalty:

C3879. To reject Allah is to reject all the good which He has implanted in our nature.

Are we going to be false to the true Pattern according to which He created us, and suffer the consequences?

Or are we going to be true to that Pattern and achieve the high and noble Destiny intended for us?

... وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَأَجْرٌ كَبِيرٌ ﴿٧﴾

but for those who believe and work righteous deeds, is Forgiveness, and a magnificent Reward.



Asad’s Version:



(35:7)[Asad] [seeing that] for those who are bent on denying the truth there is suffering severe in store, just as for those who have attained to faith and do righteous deeds there is forgiveness of sins, and a great reward.
