Sura 26, Ukurasa 370, Juzuu 19

69. And rehearse to them (something of) Abraham's story. 70. Behold, he said to his father and his people: "What worship ye?" 71. They said: "We worship idols, and we remain constantly in attendance on them." 72. He said: "Do they listen to you when ye call (on them)?" 73. "Or do you good or harm?" 74. They said: "Nay, but we found our fathers doing thus (what we do)." 75. He said: "Do ye then see whom ye have been worshipping,- 76. "Ye and your fathers before you?- 77. "For they are enemies to me; not so the Lord and Cherisher of the Worlds; 78. "Who created me, and it is He Who guides me; 79. "Who gives me food and drink, 80. "And when I am ill, it is He Who cures me; 81. "Who will cause me to die, and then to life (again); 82. "And who, I hope, will forgive me my faults on the day of Judgment. 83. "O my Lord! bestow wisdom on me, and join me with the righteous; 84. "Grant me honourable mention on the tongue of truth among the latest (generations); 85. "Make me one of the inheritors of the Garden of Bliss; 86. "Forgive my father, for that he is among those astray; 87. "And let me not be in disgrace on the Day when (men) will be raised up;- 88. "The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons will avail, 89. "But only he (will prosper) that brings to Allah a sound heart; 90. "To the righteous, the Garden will be brought near, 91. "And to those straying in Evil, the Fire will be placed in full view; 92. "And it shall be said to them: 'Where are the (gods) ye worshipped- 93. "'Besides Allah? Can they help you or help themselves?' 94. "Then they will be thrown headlong into the (Fire),- they and those straying in Evil, 95. "And the whole hosts of Iblis together. 96. "They will say there in their mutual bickerings: 97. "'By Allah, we were truly in an error manifest, 98. "'When we held you as equals with the Lord of the Worlds; 99. "'And our seducers were only those who were steeped in guilt. 100. "'Now, then, we have none to intercede (for us), 101. "'Nor a single friend to feel (for us). 102. "'Now if we only had a chance of return we shall truly be of those who believe!'" 103. Verily in this is a Sign but most of them do not believe. 104. And verily thy Lord is He, the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.
