45:1Ḥā, Meem.1

45:2The revelation of the Book is from Allāh, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

45:3Indeed, within the heavens and earth are signs for the believers.

45:4And in the creation of yourselves and what He disperses of moving creatures are signs for people who are certain [in faith].

45:5And [in] the alternation of night and day and [in] what Allāh sends down from the sky of provision [i.e., rain] and gives life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and [in His] directing of the winds are signs for a people who reason.

45:6These are the verses of Allāh which We recite to you in truth. Then in what statement after Allāh and His verses will they believe?

45:7Woe to every sinful liar

45:8Who hears the verses of Allāh recited to him, then persists arrogantly as if he had not heard them. So give him tidings of a painful punishment.

45:9And when he knows anything of Our verses, he takes them in ridicule. Those will have a humiliating punishment.

45:10Before them1 is Hell, and what they had earned will not avail them at all nor what they had taken besides Allāh as allies. And they will have a great punishment.

45:11This [Qur’ān] is guidance. And those who have disbelieved in the verses of their Lord will have a painful punishment of foul nature.

45:12It is Allāh who subjected to you the sea so that ships may sail upon it by His command and that you may seek of His bounty; and perhaps you will be grateful.

45:13And He has subjected to you whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth - all from Him. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.
