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

034.001 Y:  Praise be to Allah, to Whom belong all things in the heavens and on earth:  to Him be Praise in the Hereafter:  and He is Full of Wisdom, acquainted with all things.

P:  Praise be to Allah, unto Whom belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth.  His is the praise in the Hereafter, and He is the Wise, the Aware.

S:  (All) praise is due to Allah, Whose is what is in the heavens and what is in the earth, and to Him is due (all) praise in the hereafter; and He is the Wise, the Aware.

034.002 Y:  He knows all that goes into the earth, and all that comes out thereof; all that comes down from the sky and all that ascends thereto and He is the Most Merciful, the Oft-Forgiving.

P:  He knoweth that which goeth into the earth and that which cometh forth from it, and that descendeth from the heaven and that which ascendeth into it.  He is the Merciful, the Forgiving.

S:  He knows that which goes down into the earth and that which comes out of it, and that which comes down from the heaven and that which goes up to it; and He is the Merciful, the Forgiving.

034.003 Y:  The Unbelievers say, “Never to us will come the Hour”:  Say, “Nay! but most surely, by my Lord, it will come upon you;- by Him Who knows the unseen,- from Whom is not hidden the least little atom in the heavens or on earth:  Nor is there anything less than that, or greater, but is in the Record Perspicuous:” 

P:  Those who disbelieve say:  The Hour will never come unto us.  Say:  Nay, by my Lord, but it is coming unto you surely. (He is) the Knower of the Unseen.  Not an atom’s weight, or less than that or greater, escapeth Him in the heavens or in the earth, but it is in a clear Record,

S:  And those who disbelieve say:  The hour shall not come upon us.  Say:  Yea! by my Lord, the Knower of the unseen, it shall certainly come upon you; not the weight of an atom becomes absent from Him, in the heavens or in the earth, and neither less than that nor greater, but (all) is in a clear book,

034.004 Y:  “That He may reward those who believe and work deeds of righteousness:  for such is Forgiveness and a Sustenance Most Generous.”

P:  That He may reward those who believe and do good works.  For them is pardon and a rich provision.

S:  That He may reward those who believe and do good; these it is for whom is forgiveness and an honorable sustenance.

034.005 Y:  But those who strive against Our Signs, to frustrate them,- for such will be a Penalty,- a Punishment most humiliating.
