Verse 54–58

إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكُمُ your Lord ٱللَّهُ (is) Allah ٱلَّذِى the One Who خَلَقَ created ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضَ and the earth فِى in سِتَّةِ six أَيَّامٍۢ epochs ثُمَّ then ٱسْتَوَىٰ He ascended عَلَى on ٱلْعَرْشِ the Throne يُغْشِى He covers ٱلَّيْلَ the night ٱلنَّهَارَ (with) the day يَطْلُبُهُۥ seeking it حَثِيثًۭا rapidly وَٱلشَّمْسَ and the sun وَٱلْقَمَرَ and the moon وَٱلنُّجُومَ and the stars مُسَخَّرَٰتٍۭ subjected بِأَمْرِهِۦٓ ۗ by His command أَلَا Unquestionably لَهُ for Him ٱلْخَلْقُ (is) the creation وَٱلْأَمْرُ ۗ and the command تَبَارَكَ blessed ٱللَّهُ (is) Allah رَبُّ Lord ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ (of) the worlds ٥٤

Indeed, your Lord is Allāh, who created the heavens and earth in six days and then established Himself above the Throne. He covers the night with the day, [another night] chasing it rapidly; and [He created] the sun, the moon, and the stars, subjected by His command. Unquestionably, His is the creation and the command; blessed is Allāh, Lord of the worlds.

ٱدْعُوا۟ Call upon رَبَّكُمْ your Lord تَضَرُّعًۭا humbly وَخُفْيَةً ۚ and privately إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, He لَا (does) not يُحِبُّ love ٱلْمُعْتَدِينَ the transgressors ٥٥

Call upon your Lord in humility and privately; indeed, He does not like transgressors.

وَلَا And (do) not تُفْسِدُوا۟ cause corruption فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth بَعْدَ after إِصْلَـٰحِهَا its reformation وَٱدْعُوهُ And call Him خَوْفًۭا (in) fear وَطَمَعًا ۚ and hope إِنَّ Indeed رَحْمَتَ (the) Mercy ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah قَرِيبٌۭ (is) near مِّنَ for ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ the good-doers ٥٦

And cause not corruption upon the earth after its reformation. And invoke Him in fear and aspiration. Indeed, the mercy of Allāh is near to the doers of good.

وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who يُرْسِلُ sends ٱلرِّيَـٰحَ the winds بُشْرًۢا (as) glad tidings بَيْنَ from يَدَىْ before رَحْمَتِهِۦ ۖ His Mercy حَتَّىٰٓ until إِذَآ when أَقَلَّتْ they have carried سَحَابًۭا clouds ثِقَالًۭا heavy سُقْنَـٰهُ We drive them لِبَلَدٍۢ to a land مَّيِّتٍۢ dead فَأَنزَلْنَا then We send down بِهِ from it ٱلْمَآءَ the water فَأَخْرَجْنَا then We bring forth بِهِۦ from it مِن (of) كُلِّ all (kinds) ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ ۚ (of) fruits كَذَٰلِكَ Thus نُخْرِجُ We will bring forth ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ the dead لَعَلَّكُمْ so that you may تَذَكَّرُونَ take heed ٥٧

And it is He who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy [i.e., rainfall] until, when they have carried heavy rainclouds, We drive them to a dead land and We send down rain therein and bring forth thereby [some] of all the fruits. Thus will We bring forth the dead; perhaps you may be reminded.

وَٱلْبَلَدُ And the land ٱلطَّيِّبُ [the] pure يَخْرُجُ comes forth نَبَاتُهُۥ its vegetation بِإِذْنِ by (the) permission رَبِّهِۦ ۖ (of) its Lord وَٱلَّذِى but which خَبُثَ is bad لَا (does) not يَخْرُجُ come forth إِلَّا except نَكِدًۭا ۚ (with) difficulty كَذَٰلِكَ Thus نُصَرِّفُ We explain ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Signs لِقَوْمٍۢ for a people يَشْكُرُونَ who are grateful ٥٨

And the good land - its vegetation emerges by permission of its Lord; but that which is bad - nothing emerges except sparsely, with difficulty. Thus do We diversify the signs for a people who are grateful.
