P:  Allah receiveth (men’s) souls at the time of their death, and that (soul) which dieth not (yet) in its sleep.  He keepeth that (soul) for which He hath ordained death and dismisseth the rest till an appointed term.  Lo! herein verily are portents for people who take thought.

S:  Allah takes the souls at the time of their death, and those that die not during their sleep; then He withholds those on whom He has passed the decree of death and sends the others back till an appointed term; most surely there are signs in this for a people who reflect.

039.043 Y:  What!  Do they take for intercessors others besides Allah?  Say: 

“Even if they have no power whatever and no intelligence?” P:  Or choose they intercessors other than Allah?  Say:  What!  Even though they have power over nothing and have no intelligence?

S:  Or have they taken intercessors besides Allah?  Say:  what! even though they did not ever have control over anything, nor do they understand.

039.044 Y:  Say:  “To Allah belongs exclusively (the right to grant) intercession:  to Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth:  In the End, it is to Him that ye shall be brought back.”

P:  Say:  Unto Allah belongeth all intercession.  His is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth.  And afterward unto Him ye will be brought back.

S:  Say:  Allah’s is the intercession altogether; His is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, then to Him you shall be brought back.

039.045 Y:  When Allah, the One and Only, is mentioned, the hearts of those who believe not in the Hereafter are filled with disgust and horror; but when (gods) other than He are mentioned, behold, they are filled with joy!

P:  And when Allah alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who believe not in the Hereafter are repelled, and when those (whom they worship) beside Him are mentioned, behold! they are glad.

S:  And when Allah alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who do not believe in the hereafter shrink, and when those besides Him are mentioned, lo! they are joyful.

039.04 Y:  Say:  “O Allah!  Creator of the heavens and the earth!  Knower of all that is hidden and open! it is Thou that wilt judge between Thy Servants in those matters about which they have differed.”

P:  Say:  O Allah!  Creator of the heavens and the earth!  Knower of the Invisible and the Visible!  Thou wilt judge between Thy slaves concerning that wherein they used to differ.

S:  Say:  O Allah!  Originator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen!  Thou (only) judgest between Thy servants as to that wherein they differ.

039.047 Y:  Even if the wrong-doers had all that there is on earth, and as much more, (in vain) would they offer it for ransom from the pain of the Penalty on the Day of Judgment:  but something will confront them from Allah, which they could never have counted upon!
