Cattle
In the name of Allah, the
Beneficent, the Merciful.
[6:1]
Praise be to Allah, Who
hath created the heavens and the earth, and hath appointed darkness and light.
Yet those who disbelieve ascribe rivals unto their Lord.
[6:2]
He it is Who hath
created you from clay, and hath decreed a term for you. A term is fixed with
Him. Yet still ye doubt!
[6:3]
He is Allah in the heavens and in the earth. He knoweth
both your secret and your utterance, and He knoweth what ye earn.
[6:4]
Never came there unto them a revelation of the
revelations of Allah but they did turn away from it.
[6:5]
And they denied the truth when it came unto
them. But there will come unto them the tidings of that which they used to
deride.
[6:6]
See they not how many a
generation We destroyed before them, whom We had established in the earth more
firmly than We have established you, and We shed on them abundant showers from
the sky, and made the rivers flow beneath them. Yet we destroyed them for their
sins, and created after them another generation.
[6:7]
Had we sent down unto thee (Muhammad) (actual)
writing upon parchment, so that they could feel it with their hands, those who
disbelieve would have said: This is naught else than mere magic.
[6:8]
They say: Why hath not an angel been sent down
unto him ? If We sent down an
angel, then the matter would be judged; no further time would be allowed them
(for reflection).
