39:22

أَفَمَن So is (one for) whom شَرَحَ Allah has expanded ٱللَّهُ Allah has expanded صَدْرَهُۥ his breast لِلْإِسْلَـٰمِ for Islam فَهُوَ so he عَلَىٰ (is) upon نُورٍۢ a light مِّن from رَّبِّهِۦ ۚ his Lord فَوَيْلٌۭ So woe لِّلْقَـٰسِيَةِ to (those are) hardened قُلُوبُهُم their hearts مِّن from ذِكْرِ (the) remembrance of Allah ٱللَّهِ ۚ (the) remembrance of Allah أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those فِى (are) in ضَلَـٰلٍۢ error مُّبِينٍ clear ٢٢

So is one whose breast Allāh has expanded to [accept] Islām and he is upon [i.e., guided by] a light from his Lord [like one whose heart rejects it]? Then woe to those whose hearts are hardened against the remembrance of Allāh. Those are in manifest error.

39:23

ٱللَّهُ Allah نَزَّلَ has revealed أَحْسَنَ (the) best ٱلْحَدِيثِ (of) [the] statement كِتَـٰبًۭا a Book مُّتَشَـٰبِهًۭا (its parts) resembling each other مَّثَانِىَ oft-repeated تَقْشَعِرُّ Shiver مِنْهُ from it جُلُودُ (the) skins ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who يَخْشَوْنَ fear رَبَّهُمْ their Lord ثُمَّ then تَلِينُ relax جُلُودُهُمْ their skins وَقُلُوبُهُمْ and their hearts إِلَىٰ at ذِكْرِ (the) remembrance ٱللَّهِ ۚ (of) Allah ذَٰلِكَ That هُدَى (is the) guidance ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah يَهْدِى He guides بِهِۦ with it مَن whom يَشَآءُ ۚ He wills وَمَن And whoever يُضْلِلِ Allah lets go astray ٱللَّهُ Allah lets go astray فَمَا then not لَهُۥ for him مِنْ any هَادٍ guide ٢٣

Allāh has sent down the best statement: a consistent Book wherein is reiteration. The skins shiver therefrom of those who fear their Lord; then their skins and their hearts relax at the remembrance [i.e., mention] of Allāh. That is the guidance of Allāh by which He guides whom He wills. And one whom Allāh sends astray - for him there is no guide.

Then is he who will shield with his face the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection [like one secure from it]? And it will be said to the wrongdoers, "Taste what you used to earn."

فَأَذَاقَهُمُ So Allah made them ٱللَّهُ So Allah made them ٱلْخِزْىَ the disgrace فِى in ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ the life ٱلدُّنْيَا ۖ (of) the world وَلَعَذَابُ and certainly (the) punishment ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ (of) the Hereafter أَكْبَرُ ۚ (is) greater لَوْ if كَانُوا۟ they يَعْلَمُونَ knew ٢٦

So Allāh made them taste disgrace in worldly life. But the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.

Allāh presents an example: a man [i.e., slave] owned by quarreling partners and another belonging exclusively to one man - are they equal in comparison? Praise be to Allāh! But most of them do not know.

Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, before your Lord, will dispute.
