ٱللَّهُ Allah وَلِىُّ (is the) Protecting Guardian ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who ءَامَنُوا۟ believe[d] يُخْرِجُهُم He brings them out مِّنَ from ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ [the] darkness إِلَى towards ٱلنُّورِ ۖ [the] light وَٱلَّذِينَ And those who كَفَرُوٓا۟ disbelieve(d) أَوْلِيَآؤُهُمُ their guardians ٱلطَّـٰغُوتُ (are) the evil ones يُخْرِجُونَهُم they bring them out مِّنَ from ٱلنُّورِ the light إِلَى towards ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ ۗ [the] darkness أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those أَصْحَـٰبُ (are the) companions ٱلنَّارِ ۖ (of) the Fire هُمْ they فِيهَا in it خَـٰلِدُونَ will abide forever ٢٥٧

Allāh is the Ally of those who believe. He brings them out from darknesses into the light. And those who disbelieve - their allies are ṭāghūt. They take them out of the light into darknesses. Those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.

أَلَمْ Did not تَرَ you see إِلَى [towards] ٱلَّذِى the one who حَآجَّ argued إِبْرَٰهِـۧمَ (with) Ibrahim فِى concerning رَبِّهِۦٓ his Lord أَنْ because ءَاتَىٰهُ gave him ٱللَّهُ Allah ٱلْمُلْكَ the kingdom إِذْ When قَالَ Said إِبْرَٰهِـۧمُ Ibrahim رَبِّىَ My Lord ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who يُحْىِۦ grants life وَيُمِيتُ and causes death قَالَ He said أَنَا۠ I أُحْىِۦ give life وَأُمِيتُ ۖ and cause death قَالَ Said إِبْرَٰهِـۧمُ Ibrahim فَإِنَّ [Then] indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah يَأْتِى brings up بِٱلشَّمْسِ the sun مِنَ from ٱلْمَشْرِقِ the east فَأْتِ so you bring بِهَا it مِنَ from ٱلْمَغْرِبِ the west فَبُهِتَ So became dumbfounded ٱلَّذِى the one who كَفَرَ ۗ disbelieved وَٱللَّهُ and Allah لَا (does) not يَهْدِى guide ٱلْقَوْمَ the people ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ (who are) [the] wrongdoers ٢٥٨

Have you not considered the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord [merely] because Allāh had given him kingship? When Abraham said, "My Lord is the one who gives life and causes death," he said, "I give life and cause death." Abraham said, "Indeed, Allāh brings up the sun from the east, so bring it up from the west." So the disbeliever was overwhelmed [by astonishment], and Allāh does not guide the wrongdoing people.

أَوْ Or كَٱلَّذِى like the one who مَرَّ passed عَلَىٰ by قَرْيَةٍۢ a township وَهِىَ and it خَاوِيَةٌ (had) overturned عَلَىٰ on عُرُوشِهَا its roofs قَالَ He said أَنَّىٰ How يُحْىِۦ (will) bring to life هَـٰذِهِ this (town) ٱللَّهُ Allah بَعْدَ after مَوْتِهَا ۖ its death فَأَمَاتَهُ Then he was made to die ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah مِا۟ئَةَ (for) a hundred عَامٍۢ year(s) ثُمَّ then بَعَثَهُۥ ۖ He raised him قَالَ He said كَمْ How long لَبِثْتَ ۖ (have) you remained قَالَ He said لَبِثْتُ I remained يَوْمًا (for) a day أَوْ or بَعْضَ a part يَوْمٍۢ ۖ (of) a day قَالَ He said بَل Nay لَّبِثْتَ you (have) remained مِا۟ئَةَ one hundred عَامٍۢ year(s) فَٱنظُرْ Then look إِلَىٰ at طَعَامِكَ your food وَشَرَابِكَ and your drink لَمْ (they did) not يَتَسَنَّهْ ۖ change with time وَٱنظُرْ and look إِلَىٰ at حِمَارِكَ your donkey وَلِنَجْعَلَكَ and We will make you ءَايَةًۭ a sign لِّلنَّاسِ ۖ for the people وَٱنظُرْ And look إِلَى at ٱلْعِظَامِ the bones كَيْفَ how نُنشِزُهَا We raise them ثُمَّ then نَكْسُوهَا We cover them لَحْمًۭا ۚ (with) flesh فَلَمَّا Then when تَبَيَّنَ became clear لَهُۥ to him قَالَ he said أَعْلَمُ I know أَنَّ that ٱللَّهَ Allah عَلَىٰ (is) on كُلِّ every شَىْءٍۢ thing قَدِيرٌۭ All-Powerful ٢٥٩

Or [consider such an example] as the one who passed by a township which had fallen into ruin. He said, "How will Allāh bring this to life after its death?" So Allāh caused him to die for a hundred years; then He revived him. He said, "How long have you remained?" He [the man] said, "I have remained a day or part of a day." He said, "Rather, you have remained one hundred years. Look at your food and your drink; it has not changed with time. And look at your donkey; and We will make you a sign for the people. And look at the bones [of this donkey] - how We raise them and then We cover them with flesh." And when it became clear to him, he said, "I know that Allāh is over all things competent."
