[29:64]

This life of the world is but a pastime and a game. Lo! the home of the Hereafter - that is Life, if they but knew.

[29:65]

And when they mount upon the ships they pray to Allah, making their faith pure for Him only, but when He bringeth them safe to land, behold! they ascribe partners (unto Him),

[29:66]

That they may disbelieve in that which We have given them, and that they may take their ease. But they will come to know.

[29:67]

Have they not seen that We have appointed a sanctuary immune (from violence), while mankind are ravaged all around them ? Do they then believe in falsehood and disbelieve in the bounty of Allah ?

[29:68]

Who doeth greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie concerning Allah, or denieth the truth when it cometh unto him ? Is not there a home in hell for disbelievers ?

[29:69]

As for those who strive in Us, We surely guide them to Our paths, and lo! Allah is with the good.

 

The Romans

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[30:1]

Alif. Lam. Mim.

[30:2]

The Romans have been defeated

[30:3]

In the nearer land, and they, after their defeat will be victorious

[30:4]

Within ten years - Allah’s is the command in the former case and in the latter - and in that day believers will rejoice

[30:5]

In Allah’s help to victory. He helpeth to victory whom He will. He is the Mighty, the Merciful.
