Certainty

Those who do not know say, "Why does Allāh not speak to us or there come to us a sign?" Thus spoke those before them like their words. Their hearts resemble each other. We have shown clearly the signs to a people who are certain [in faith].

And who believe in what has been revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], and what was revealed before you, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith].

Then is it the judgement of [the time of] ignorance they desire? But who is better than Allāh in judgement for a people who are certain [in faith].

And thus did We show Abraham the realm of the heavens and the earth that he would be among the certain [in faith].

It is Allāh who erected the heavens without pillars that you [can] see; then He established Himself above the Throne¹ and made subject² the sun and the moon, each running [its course] for a specified term. He arranges [each] matter; He details the signs that you may, of the meeting with your Lord, be certain.

And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty [i.e., death].

Who establish prayer and give zakāh, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith].

And when the word [i.e., decree] befalls them,¹ We will bring forth for them a creature from the earth speaking to them, [saying] that the people were, of Our verses, not certain [in faith].

So be patient. Indeed, the promise of Allāh is truth. And let them not disquiet you who are not certain [in faith].

Who establish prayer and give zakāh, and they, of the Hereafter, are certain [in faith].

If you could but see when the criminals are hanging their heads before their Lord, [saying], "Our Lord, we have seen and heard, so return us [to the world]; we will work righteousness. Indeed, we are [now] certain."

And We made from among them leaders guiding by Our command when they were patient and [when] they were certain of Our signs.

Lord of the heavens and the earth and that between them, if you would be certain.

This [Qur’ān] is enlightenment for mankind and guidance and mercy for a people who are certain [in faith].

But as for those who disbelieved, [it will be said], "Were not Our verses recited to you, but you were arrogant and became a criminal people?

And when it was said, 'Indeed, the promise of Allāh is truth and the Hour [is coming] - no doubt about it,' you said, 'We know not what is the Hour. We assume only assumption, and we are not convinced.'"

And in the creation of yourselves and what He disperses of moving creatures are signs for people who are certain [in faith].

And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]

Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain.

Indeed, this is the true certainty,

And indeed, it is the truth of certainty.

And We have not made the keepers of the Fire except angels. And We have not made their number except as a trial for those who disbelieve - that those who were given the Scripture will be convinced and those who have believed will increase in faith and those who were given the Scripture and the believers will not doubt and that those in whose hearts is disease [i.e., hypocrisy] and the disbelievers will say, "What does Allāh intend by this as an example?" Thus does Allāh send astray whom He wills and guide whom He wills. And none knows the soldiers of your Lord except Him. And it [i.e., mention of the Fire] is not but a reminder to humanity.

And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who engaged [in it],

And we used to deny the Day of Recompense

Until there came to us the certainty [i.e., death]."

No! If you only knew with knowledge of certainty...¹

You will surely see the Hellfire.

Then you will surely see it with the eye of certainty.¹
