Chapter 16, Page 267, Juz 14

1. The command of Allah is at hand, so do not hasten it. Glorified and Exalted is He above what they associate ˹with Him in worship˺! 2. He sends down the angels with revelation by His command to whoever He wills of His servants, ˹stating:˺ “Warn ˹humanity˺ that there is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Me, so be mindful of Me ˹alone˺.” 3. He created the heavens and the earth for a purpose. Exalted is He above what they associate with Him ˹in worship˺! 4. He created humans from a sperm-drop, then—behold!—they openly challenge ˹Him˺. 5. And He created the cattle for you as a source of warmth, food, and ˹many other˺ benefits. 6. They are also pleasing to you when you bring them home and when you take them out to graze. 7. And they carry your loads to ˹distant˺ lands which you could not otherwise reach without great hardship. Surely your Lord is Ever Gracious, Most Merciful. 8. ˹He also created˺ horses, mules, and donkeys for your transportation and adornment. And He creates what you do not know. 9. It is upon Allah ˹alone˺ to ˹clearly˺ show the Straight Way. Other ways are deviant. Had He willed, He would have easily imposed guidance upon all of you.
