SURAH AL-NAHL
16. SURAH AL-NAHL
(THE BEE)
(This Surah is Makkan, contains
128 verses and 16 sections)
Allah’s Name to commence
with, the Most Gracious, the
Most Merciful.
16:1, The command of Allah
(regarding the Day of Judgement)
is about to come, do not therefore
seek to hasten it Glory and
Grandeur are to Him over all the
partners they ascribe.
16:2. He sends down the angels
with the soul of faith ie. the
revelation towards those of His
bondsmen He wills. That (O
Prophets) ‘Give warning that
there is no one worthy of
worship except Me; so, fear Me.’
16:3. He created the heavens
and the earth accurately.
Supreme is He above their
ascribing of partners (to Him).
16:4. He created man from a
refined drop (ie. sperm), so,
thereby he (i.e. man) became an
open disputer.
16:5. And (He) created cattle; in
them are warm clothing for you
and various uses, and (also)
you eat therefrom.
16:6. And in them is elegance
for you when you bring them
back in the evening and when
you leave them to graze.
16:7. And they transport your
loads to such a town where you
could not have reached except
half-dead. Indeed, your Lord is
Most Compassionate, Most
Merciful.
16:8. And horses, and mules
and donkeys upon which you
may ride and for adornment;
and He will create further, of
which you are not aware.
169. And the middle path is
precisely to Allah, and some path
is crooked. And had He willed,
He would have henceforth
brought all of you upon guidance.
16:10. It is He Who sent down
water from the sky; your
drinking is from it, and from it
are trees by which you graze
(your animals).
16:11. With this water He
produces for you crops, and
olives, and dates, and grapes
and all kinds of fruits; indeed,
in this is a sign for the people
who ponder.
16:12. And He made the night,
and the day, and the sun and
the moon subservient to you;
and the stars are (also)
subservient to His command;
indeed, in that are signs for the
people of intellect.
16:13. And (He appointed to
serve you) the things He has
created for you in the earth of
various colours; indeed, in this
is a sign for those who
remember.
16:14. And it is He Who made
the sea subservient to you; that
eat fresh meat (fish) from it and
extract ornaments (i.e. pearls)
from it which you wear. And
you see ships cleaving through
the water, and in order that you
may acknowledge (His) favour
and that you may give thanks.
16:15. And He placed
(mountains as) anchors in the
earth that it may not tremble
along with you, and streams
and paths that you find way.
16:16. And landmarks; and
through the stars they find way
(during the night).
16:17. So, will He Who creates
(ever) be like the one who does
not create? So, do you not
accept advice?
16:18. And if you count the
Favours of Allah, you will
therefore never be able to count
them. Indeed, Allah is Most
Forgiving, Ever Merciful.
16:19. And Allah knows what you
(attempt to) conceal and what you
lose.
16:20. And those (idols) whom
they worship other than Allah
do not create anything and they
themselves are created.
16:21. They are dead; not alive,
and they have no knowledge of
when people will be raised.
16:22. Your God is One God;
those who do not therefore
believe in the Hereafter, their
hearts deny and they are
arrogant.
16:23. In fact, Allah knows what
they (try to) hide and what they
disclose. Indeed, He does not
like the arrogant.
16:24. And when it is said to
them, ‘What has your Lord sent
down?’ They say, ‘(These) are
the tales of former people.’
16:25. In order to bear their full
burdens on the Day of
Resurrection, and (also) some
burdens of those whom they
mislead with their ignorance.
Listen! What an evil burden
16:26. Indeed, those before
them had plotted; so, Allah
uprooted their building from
the foundations, the roof
therefore fell down upon them
from the top, and_ the
punishment came upon them
from where they knew not.
16:27. Then, on the Day of
Resurrection, He will cause
them to be disgraced and will
proclaim, ‘Where are My
partners in which you were
disputing?’ The people of
knowledge will say, ‘Today, all
disgrace and evil is upon the
disbelievers.’
16:28. Those whose souls the
angels remove whilst they are in
the state of wronging themselves
(i.e. remaining in disbelief); so,
they will now offer ai
(while making false excuses),
‘We were not involved in any
wrong.’ (The angels say) ‘Yes,
why not? Indeed, Allah knows
well what your deeds were.’
16:29. ‘Now enter the gates of
Hell; remain therein forever.’
So, what an evil abode for the
arrogant.
16:30. And it was said to those
who fear, ‘What has your Lord
sent down?! They _ said,
‘Goodness.’ (Thus) for those
who did good in this world;
there is goodness for them, and
the final home is undoubtedly
the best; and what a definitely
excellent final home for the
pious.
16:31. Gardens for dwelling,
into which they will enter,
beneath which rivers flow;
therein they will get whatever
they desire; Allah grants such
reward to the pious.
16:32. Those whose souls the
angels remove in a state of
purity (of faith); saying, ‘Peace
be upon you, enter Paradise;
the recompense of your deeds.’
16:33. So, what are they waiting
for except this; that the angels
come upon them (to remove
their souls) or that your Lord’s
punishment may come? Those
before them did exactly the
same, and Allah did not oppress
them at all. Yes; it is they who
used to wrong themselves.
16:34. So, the outcomes of their
evil deeds fell upon them, and
what they used to mock (i.e. the
punishment) surrounded them.
16:35. And the polytheists said,
‘Had Allah willed, we would
not have worshipped. anything
except Him, neither we nor our
forefathers; nor would we have
separated from Him, declaring
anything unlawful.’ This is
exactly what those before them
did; so, what is (incumbent)
upon the Messengers except to
convey (the message) clearly?
16:36. And We indeed sent a
Messenger to every nation;
(declaring) that ‘Worship Allah
and keep away from the Devil.’
So, Allah guided some of them,
and misguidance proved true
upon some of them; therefore,
travel in the land and see what
the outcome was of those who
belie.
16:37. If you (O Beloved) are
eager for their guidance; so,
Allah verily does not guide the
one whom He causes to go
astray, and they do not have
16:38. And they swore by Allah
using their strongest possible
oath; that ‘Allah will not raise
up the dead.’ Yes, why not?
(This) true promise is upon (the
generosity of) His responsibility,
but most people are unaware.
16:39. (He will definitely resurrect
them) in order that He may
make clear to them the matter in
which they used to differ, and in
order for the disbelievers to
know that they were liars.
16:40. Whatever We intend, We
only command to it by saying,
‘Be,’ and it becomes; immediately.
16:41. And to those who left their
homes and families in Allah’s
cause having been oppressed;
We shall definitely give them a
good place in the world. And the
reward of the Hereafter is indeed
extremely great; had somehow
people known.
16:42. (They are) those who
were patient and who rely
upon their Lord only.
16:43. And We did not send
before you except men (as
Prophets), towards whom We
would send revelation; so, O
people! Ask the people of
knowledge if you do not know.
16:44. Along with clear proofs
and the Books. And We have
sent down this Remembrance
(ie. the Qur’aan) towards you
(O Beloved), so that you may
explain to people what is
revealed towards them, and
that they may ponder.
16:45. So, do those who plot
evil matters not fear that Allah
may cause them to be shoved
into the earth, or that the
punishment may come to them
from where they know not?
16:46. Or that He may seize
them whilst they are moving
around here and there; that
they cannot make (Allah) tired?
16:47. Or whilst subjecting them
to harm, He may seize them?
Indeed, your Lord is Most
Compassionate, Most Merciful.
16:48. And did they not observe
that the shadows of whatever
things Allah has created incline
to the right or to the left;
prostrating to Allah, and they
(the shadows) are humbled in
His Majestic Court?
16:49. And only to Allah
prostrates whatever is in the
heavens and whatever walks
on the earth, and the angels
(too), and they do not display
arrogance.
16:50. They have the fear of
their Lord upon them and do
only what they are
commanded.
16:51. And Allah has
proclaimed, ‘Do not take two
gods. Indeed, He is the only
One God; so, fear only Me.’
16:52. And to only Him belongs
whatever is in the heavens and
in the earth, and obeying only
Him is obligatory. So, will you
fear anyone other than Allah?
16:53. And whatever bounty
you have; all is from Allah,
then whenever misfortune
reaches you, only towards Him
you hence take refuge.
16:54, When He then averts
misfortune from you, a group
amongst you therefore starts
ascribing partners to their Lord.
16:55. In order to be ungrateful
of the favours We have given to
them, so enjoy a little; that you
will soon come to know (its
outcome).
16:56. And they (the disbelievers)
assign a part of the sustenance
We have given them for
unknown things (i.e. false deities),
By the oath of Allah, you will
certainly be questioned regarding
that which you used to fabricate.
16:57, And _ they attribute
daughters to Allah; Purity is to
Him (from that), and (they
attribute) for themselves what
they desire (i.e. sons).
16:58. And when one amongst
them is given the glad tidings of
a daughter, his face therefore
remains darkened for the whole
day, and he is full of anger.
16:59. (He is) hiding from the
people because of the shame of
this news; will he keep her with
disgrace, or bury her alive in
the sand? Behold! Very evil is
the judgement they apply.
16:60. Those who do not believe
in the Hereafter, only their
condition is bad. And the Glory
of Allah is the Highest, and only
He is the Most Honourable, the
Wise.
16:61. And if Allah would have
seized people on account of
their wrongdoings, He would
not have henceforth left anyone
walking on the earth; but He
gives them respite up to an
appointed promised time. Then,
when their promise (i.e. the time
of death or punishment) will
come, they will not (be able to)
turn back (from it) for a moment
nor go forward.
16:62. And they associate
(daughters) to Allah; that
which is disliked (even) by
themselves, and their tongues
speak lies that goodness (i.e.
Paradise) is for them. So, in
reality, for them is the Fire, and
they have been made to cross
the limits.
16:63. By the oath of Allah, We
sent Messengers towards so
many nations before you, but
Listas pistigatag
the Devil made their (evil)
deeds appear good to them;
only he therefore is their
companion this Day, and for
them is a painful punishment.
16:64. And We did not send
down this Book towards you
except for you to clearly explain
to them the matters in which
they may differ, and as guidance
and mercy for the believers.
16:65. And Allah sent down
water from the sky, and with it
revived the earth after its death;
indeed, in this is a sign for
people who listen (to the truth).
16:66. And there is indeed place
for you to ponder in (the
example of) the cattle. We
provide you to drink from what
is in their bellies; pure milk
from between dung and blood,
which is soothing to swallow
for the drinkers.
16:67. And from the fruits of
date and grapes; that you make
syrup and (obtain) good
nourishment from them;
indeed, in this is a sign for
people of intellect.
16:68. And your Lord inspired
the bee; that ‘Make homes in
the mountains, and in the trees
and in the rooftops.’
16:69. ‘Then, eat from all kinds
of fruits, and walk the ways of
your Lord which are soft and
easy for you.’ From their bellies
comes a drink of various
colours in which is healing for
the people; indeed, in this is a
sign to those who ponder.
16:70. And Allah created you
and will then remove your souls.
And amongst you is the one
who is turned towards the worst
part of age (i.e. old age); that he
does not know (remember) after
having had knowledge. Indeed,
Allah knows everything; He is
Able to do all things.
16:71. And Allah has made some
amongst you superior to others
with regards to provision (ie.
making some rich and keeping
some poor). So, those who are
made well-off, they will not give
(part of) their wealth to their
male and female slaves; (fearing)
that they may all become equal
in this respect. Do they therefore
deny the Favours of Allah?
16:72. And Allah has created
for you wives from amongst
yourselves and has created for
you from your wives; sons and
grandsons, and has provided
sustenance for you from good
things. So, do they believe in
falsehood and reject the Bounty
of Allah?
16:73. And they worship such,
other than Allah, who do not
have the power to provide
them any sustenance from the
heavens or the earth, nor can
they do anything.
16:74. Therefore, do not assign
equals to Allah; indeed, Allah
knows and you know not.
16:75. Allah has explained an
example; there is a slave, he
himself is the property of
another, he does not have
power over anything, and
another upon whom We have
bestowed a good livelihood
from Us, he therefore spends
from it; secretly and openly.
Will they be equal? All praise is
due to Allah. Rather, most of
them know not.
16:76. And Allah has explained
an example; two men; one of
them dumb, unable to do
anything, and he is a burden on
his master, wherever his master
sends him, he brings no good.
Will he be equal to the one who
gives the command of justice
and is on the Straight Path?
16:77. And only for Allah are
the hidden things of the
heavens and the earth, and the
matter of Resurrection is not
but like the blink of an eye;
rather, closer than that. Indeed,
Allah is Able to do all things.
16:78. And Allah brought you
forth from your mother’s
wombs; that you did not know
anything, and gave you ears
and eyes and hearts; that you
may give thanks.
16:79. Have they not seen the
birds subservient (to Allah) in
the open space of the sky? No
one holds them (up in the air)
except Allah; indeed, in this are
signs for the believers.
16:80. And Allah has given you
homes for living, and made
some houses (i.e. tents) from
the hides of animals, which are
light for you on your day of
travel and on the day you stop
over. And from their wool, and
fur and hair; (you may make)
some household items and
utilities for a while.
16:81. And Allah has provided
you shade with the things He
has created, and created for you
a place to hide in the mountains,
and created some clothing for
you to protect you from the heat
(and cold), and some clothing to
protect you during battle; this is
how He completes His Favour
upon you, so you may submit to
His command.
16:82. If they then turn away, O
Beloved, upon you is nothing
but to clearly convey (the
message).
16:83. They recognise the
Favour of Allah and then deny
it, and most of them are
disbelievers.
16:84. And the Day when We
will raise up a witness from
every nation, there will then be
no permission for the
disbelievers (to talk), nor will
they be asked to make amends.
16:85. And when the unjust will
see the punishment; exactly
from that moment neither is the
punishment upon them to be
diminished, nor are they to be
given respite.
16:86. And when _ the
polytheists will see their
ascribed partners (idols), they
will say, ‘O our Lord! These are
our partners whom we used to
worship other than You.’ They
will therefore strike back at
them that ‘You are indeed liars.’
16:87. And on that Day, they
will fall humbly towards Allah,
and they will lose what they
used to fabricate.
16:88. Those who disbelieved
and prevented from the way of
Allah, We added punishment
upon punishment (for them);
the recompense of their
16:89. And the Day when We
will raise from every group a
witness from amongst them in
order to testify against them
and will bring you, O Beloved,
as a witness upon them all.
And We have sent down this
Qur’aan upon you, which is a
clear explanation of all things,
and guidance, and mercy and
glad tidings to the Muslims.
16:90. Indeed, Allah gives the
commands of justice and
kindness, and of giving to
relatives, and forbids from
obscenity, and evil and
rebellion. He advises you that
you should pay heed.
16:91. And fulfil the covenant of
Allah when you have made the
covenant, and do not break your
oaths after making them
binding. And you have made
Allah a Guarantor over you;
indeed, Allah knows your deeds.
16:92, (By breaking your
covenant and oath) do not be like
the woman who broke her spun
thread into pieces after it had
become strong. You make your
oaths a baseless excuse between
yourselves, that one group
should not become more (in
number or wealth) than another
group; Allah only tests you
thereby. And He will definitely
make clear to you on the Day of
Resurrection the matter in which
you used to differ.
16:93. And had Allah willed,
He would have henceforth
made you all one nation, but
He causes to go astray
whomever He wills and guides
whomsoever He wills. And you
will definitely be questioned
regarding your actions.
16:94. And do not make your
oaths a baseless excuse between
yourselves so that a foot may not
slip after being firm, and you
will taste evil because you were
preventing from the path of
Allah, and you may be severely
punished (in the Hereafter).
16:95. And do not exchange the
covenant of Allah for a small
price; indeed, that which is
with Allah is better for you, if
you know.
16:96. What you have will
perish, and that which is with
Allah will remain forever. And
We shall definitely give to those
who are patient such reward
which befits the best of their
deeds.
16:97. Whoever does good
deeds; whether a male or a
female, and is a Muslim, We
shall definitely henceforth
make him live a good life and
shall definitely give them a
reward which befits the best of
their deeds.
16:98. So, when you recite the
Qur’aan, seek the refuge of
Allah from Satan; the rejected
one.
16:99. Indeed, he has no control
over them who believe and rely
upon their Lord only.
16:100. He (the Devil) has power
only over those who make
friendship with him and ascribe
him as a partner (in Divinity).
16:101. And when We replace a
verse by another verse; and
Allah knows well what He
reveals; the disbelievers say,
‘You are just fabricating.’
Rather, most of them know not.
16:102. Say you (O Beloved),
‘The Holy Spirit (jibra’eel) has
brought it down from your
Lord accurately to make the
believers firm with it, and as
guidance and glad tidings for
the Muslims.’
16:103. And We indeed know
that they say, ‘Some man
teaches this (ie. the Qur’aan to
the Beloved Prophet).’ The one
they refer to speaks a non-
Arabic language, and this is a
clear Arabic language.
16:104. Indeed, those who
disbelieve in the verses of Allah,
Allah does not guide them; and
for them is a painful punishment.
16:105. Only those who do not
believe in Allah’s verses attribute
false allegation, and only they
are liars.
16:106. The one who disbeliever
in Allah after accepting faith,
except the one who is compelled
to (commit disbelief) and his
heart is (still) firm upon faith.
Yes; whoever is wholeheartedly
a disbeliever, upon them is the
wrath of Allah; and for them is a
great punishment.
16:107. This is because they
preferred the worldly life over
the Hereafter, and because
Allah does not guide (such)
disbelieving people.
16:108. These are the ones
whose hearts, and ears and
eyes Allah has sealed, and only
they are the neglectful.
16:109. Definitely; that they are
losers in the Hereafter.
16:10, Then, your Lord indeed (is
Greatly Forgiving) for those who
left their homes, after they had
been tortured, and then fought
and remained patient. Indeed,
your Lord thereafter is certainly
Most Forgiving, Ever Merciful.
16:111. The Day when every
soul will come quarrelling on
behalf of itself, and every soul
will be fully repaid for what it
did, and they will not be
wronged.
16:112. And Allah has explained
an example (of the people) of a
town, which was in peace and
security; its provisions would
come in abundance from all
sides. So, in response, the
(people of that) town started
becoming ungrateful to Allah’s
Favours, Allah henceforth made
it (ie. the people) taste the
punishment by covering it with
a cloak of starvation and fear on
account of their deeds.
16:113. And a Messenger
indeed came to them from
amongst them; so, in response,
they belied him, and the
punishment therefore seized
them, and they were unjust.
16:114. So, eat the lawful and
good sustenance Allah has
provided you with, and be
grateful for the blessings of
your Lord, if you worship Him.
16:115. Only these are forbidden
to you; carrion and blood, and
the flesh of swine, and that which
has been slaughtered whilst
proclaiming the name of anyone
other than Allah. Then, the one
who is compelled and does not
(eat out of) desire, nor more than
the limit; so, indeed Allah is Most
Forgiving, Ever Merciful.
16:116. And do not utter the lie
which your tongues speak,
(saying) ‘This is lawful, and this
is unlawful,’ in order to
fabricate lie against Allah;
indeed, those who fabricate lie
against Allah will never
prosper.
16:117. (For them in this world
is) a little enjoyment, and (in
the Hereafter) for them is a
painful punishment.
16:118. And We _ forbade
especially for the Jews those
things which We related to you
earlier. And We did not
oppress them; yes, it is they
who used to wrong their own
selves
16:119. Then, indeed your Lord;
for those who commit evil
unwittingly, then after this
repent and reform themselves;
indeed thereafter, your Lord is
definitely Most Forgiving, Ever
Merciful.
16:120. Indeed, Ibrahim was a
leader; obedient to Allah, and
detached from all (falsehood),
and he was not a polytheist.
16:121. (Ibrahim was) grateful
for His Favours, Allah chose
him and showed him the
Straight Path.
16:122, And We gave him
goodness in this world, and he is
indeed worthy of the closeness
(of Allah) in the Hereafter.
16:123. We then sent to you (O
Beloved) the revelation that
Follow the religion of Ibrahim,
who was separate from all
falsehood, and was not a
polytheist.’
16:124. (The respect of) Saturday
(ie. the Sabbath) was made
obligatory upon only those who
differed in it. And your Lord
will indeed judge between them
on the Day of Resurrection
concerning the matter in which
they used to differ.
16:125. Call towards the path of
your Lord with sound planning
and good advice, and argue
with them in that manner
which is deemed the best.
Indeed, your Lord knows well
who has strayed from His path,
and He knows well those who
are guided.
16:126. And if you punish,
punish therefore similar to how
you were afflicted. And if you
exercise patience, patience is
therefore indeed best for those
who are patient.
16:127. And O Beloved, you be
patient, and your patience is
only with the help of Allah, and
do not grieve over them, and
do not be disheartened by their
deceits.
16:128. Indeed, Allah is with
those who fear and who do
good deeds.
