Quran 44:2~7

By the clear Book! Indeed, We sent it down on a blessed night (of Qadr in the month of Ramadan)., for We always warn ˹against evil˺. On that night every matter of wisdom is ordained by a command from Us, for We have always sent ˹messengers˺ as a mercy from your Lord. He ˹alone˺ is truly the All-Hearing, All-Knowing— the Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything in between, if only you had sure faith. Quran 44:2~7 Surah ad-Dukhan (The Evident Smoke)
This Surah takes its name from the Ayat, فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُّبِينٍ “Then watch for the Day when the sky will bring a visible smoke.” (44:10)
There are 59 Ayat in this Surah.

وَٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِینِ إِنَّاۤ أَنزَلۡنَـٰهُ فِی لَیۡلَةࣲ مُّبَـٰرَكَةٍۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِینَ فِیهَا یُفۡرَقُ كُلُّ أَمۡرٍ حَكِیمٍ أَمۡرࣰا مِّنۡ عِندِنَاۤۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرۡسِلِینَ رَحۡمَةࣰ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِیعُ ٱلۡعَلِیمُ رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَیۡنَهُمَاۤۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِینَ
The Surah warns about the punishment of Allah. When the punishment will come then no one can avert it.
The division between the righteous and wicked in the Hereafter will be the final decision of Allah.
اس کتاب روشن کی قسم کہ ہم نے اس کو مبارک رات میں نازل فرمایا ہم تو رستہ دکھانے والے ہیں اسی رات میں تمام حکمت کے کام فیصل کئے جاتے ہیں (یعنی) ہمارے ہاں سے حکم ہو کر۔ بےشک ہم ہی (پیغمبر کو) بھیجتے ہیں (یہ) تمہارے پروردگار کی رحمت ہے۔ وہ تو سننے والا جاننے والا ہے آسمانوں اور زمین کا اور جو کچھ ان دونوں میں ہے سب کا مالک۔ بشرطیکہ تم لوگ یقین کرنے والے ہو

Quran 29:5~7

Whoever hopes for the meeting with Allah, ˹let them know that˺ Allah’s appointed time is sure to come. He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing. And whoever strives ˹in Allah’s cause˺, only does so for their own good. Surely Allah is not in need of ˹any of˺ His creation. As for those who believe and do good, We will certainly absolve them of their sins, and reward them according to the best of what they used to do. Quran 29:5~7 (Surah al-’Ankabut)
The Spider (Arabic: العنكبوت, al-‘ankabūt) is the 29th chapter (surah) of the Quran with 69 verses (āyāt).

مَن كَانَ یَرۡجُوا۟ لِقَاۤءَ ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّ أَجَلَ ٱللَّهِ لَءَاتࣲۚ وَهُوَ ٱلسَّمِیعُ ٱلۡعَلِیمُ وَمَن جَـٰهَدَ فَإِنَّمَا یُجَـٰهِدُ لِنَفۡسِهِۦۤۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَغَنِیٌّ عَنِ ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ وَٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَنُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنۡهُمۡ سَیِّءَاتِهِمۡ وَلَنَجۡزِیَنَّهُمۡ أَحۡسَنَ ٱلَّذِی كَانُوا۟ یَعۡمَلُونَ
This Surah reminds the Believers to be strong in their faith and not to give up their faith because of hardship or family pressures. Stories of previous Prophets and their followers are also mentioned here to show that the path of truth is not an easy path. It has trials and hardships.
جو کوئی اللہ سے ملنے کی توقع رکھتا ہو (اُسے معلوم ہونا چاہیے کہ) اللہ کا مقرر کیا ہوا وقت آنے ہی والا ہے، اور اللہ سب کچھ سُنتا اور جانتا ہے جو شخص بھی مجاہدہ کریگا اپنے ہی بھلے کے لیے کرے گا، اللہ یقیناً دنیا جہان والوں سے بے نیاز ہے اور جو لوگ ایمان لائیں گے اور نیک اعمال کریں گے اُن کی برائیاں ہم ان سے دُور کر دیں گے اور انہیں اُن کے بہترین اعمال کی جزا دیں گے

Quran 7:200~202

If you are tempted by Satan, then seek refuge with Allah. Surely He is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. Indeed, when Satan whispers to those mindful ˹of Allah˺, they remember ˹their Lord˺ then they start to see ˹things˺ clearly. But the devils persistently plunge their ˹human˺ associates deeper into wickedness, sparing no effort. Quran 7:200~202
The Surah is named after the story of the men awaiting on the “Elevations” between Paradise and Hell.
It comprises of 206 Ayat.

وَإِمَّا یَنزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلشَّیۡطَـٰنِ نَزۡغࣱ فَٱسۡتَعِذۡ بِٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّهُۥ سَمِیعٌ عَلِیمٌ إِنَّ ٱلَّذِینَ ٱتَّقَوۡا۟ إِذَا مَسَّهُمۡ طَـٰۤىِٕفࣱ مِّنَ ٱلشَّیۡطَـٰنِ تَذَكَّرُوا۟ فَإِذَا هُم مُّبۡصِرُونَ وَإِخۡوَ ٰنُهُمۡ یَمُدُّونَهُمۡ فِی ٱلۡغَیِّ ثُمَّ لَا یُقۡصِرُونَ
Al-A’raf – The Elevations.
Allah mentions Paradise and Hellfire and then speaks of the ‘elevations’ between them reserved for some amongst humanity. These people not knowing what will happen to them. The people of Hell-fire will be refused water as it will be prohibited for the disbelievers in the after-life.
اگر کبھی شیطان تمہیں اکسائے تو اللہ کی پناہ مانگو، وہ سب کچھ سننے اور جاننے والا ہے حقیقت میں جو لو گ متقی ہیں اُن کا حال تو یہ ہوتا ہے کہ کبھی شیطان کے اثر سے کوئی برا خیال اگر انہیں چھو بھی جاتا ہے تو وہ فوراً چوکنے ہو جاتے ہیں اور پھر انہیں صاف نظر آنے لگتا ہے کہ ان کے لیے صحیح طریق کار کیا ہے رہے ان کے (یعنی شیاطین کے) بھائی بند، تو وہ انہیں ان کی کج روی میں کھینچے لیے چلے جاتے ہیں اور انہیں بھٹکانے میں کوئی کسر اٹھا نہیں رکھتے
The basic theme of this Surah is Risalah, i.e. Allah’s message as it was sent through many messengers. Several Prophets and parts of their stories are mentioned to emphasize Prophets’ mission and their struggle with their people. The Surah tells us that Allah’s Prophets suffered for the cause of truth. Their enemies tried to harm them, but then Allah helped his prophets and defeated their enemies. The Surah emphasizes that the true message must be presented under all circumstances. After the Prophets it is the duty of the Believers to convey the message of Allah to all people.

Quran 2:256~257

Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood. So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. Allah is the Guardian of the believers— He brings them out of darkness and into light. As for the disbelievers, their guardians are false gods who lead them out of light and into darkness. It is they who will be the residents of the Fire. They will be there forever. Quran 2:256~257
Al-Baqara, alternatively transliterated Al-Baqarah (Arabic: البقرة, ’al-baqarah; lit. “The Heifer” or “The Cow”), is the second and longest chapter (surah) of the Quran.
It consists of 286 verses (āyāt)

لَآ إِكْرَاهَ فِى ٱلدِّينِ ۖ قَد تَّبَيَّنَ ٱلرُّشْدُ مِنَ ٱلْغَىِّ ۚ فَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِٱلطَّغُوتِ وَيُؤْمِنۢ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدِ ٱسْتَمْسَكَ بِٱلْعُرْوَةِ ٱلْوُثْقَىٰ لَا ٱنفِصَامَ لَهَا ۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ ‎ ‏ٱللَّهُ وَلِىُّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يُخْرِجُهُم مِّنَ ٱلظُّلُمَتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ ۖ وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ أَوْلِيَآؤُهُمُ ٱلطَّغُوتُ يُخْرِجُونَهُم مِّنَ ٱلنُّورِ إِلَى ٱلظُّلُمَتِ ۗ أُو۟لَٓئِكَ أَصْحَبُ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ هُمْ فِيهَا خَلِدُونَ ‎ ‎
The surah encompasses a variety of topics and contains several commands for Muslims such as enjoining fasting on the believer during the month of Ramadan; forbidding interest or usury (riba); and several famous verses such as The Throne Verse, Al-Baqara 256, and the final two or three verses. The surah addresses a wide variety of topics, including substantial amounts of law, and retells stories of Adam, Ibrahim (Abraham) and Musa (Moses). A major theme is guidance: urging the pagans (Al-Mushrikeen) and the Jews of Medina to embrace Islam, and warning them and the hypocrites (Munafiqun) of the fate God had visited in the past on those who failed to heed his call.
دین (اسلام) میں زبردستی نہیں ہے ہدایت (صاف طور پر ظاہر اور) گمراہی سے الگ ہو چکی ہے تو جو شخص بتوں سے اعتقاد نہ رکھے اور خدا پر ایمان لائے اس نے ایسی مضبوط رسی ہاتھ میں پکڑ لی ہے جو کبھی ٹوٹنے والی نہیں اور خدا (سب کچھ) سنتا اور (سب کچھ) جانتا ہے جو لوگ ایمان لائے ہیں ان کا دوست خدا ہے کہ اُن کو اندھیرے سے نکال کر روشنی میں لے جاتا ہے اور جو کافر ہیں ان کے دوست شیطان ہیں کہ ان کو روشنی سے نکال کر اندھیرے میں لے جاتے ہیں یہی لوگ اہل دوزخ ہیں کہ اس میں ہمیشہ رہیں گے

Quran 40:18~20

Warn them ˹O Prophet˺ of the approaching Day when the hearts will jump into the throats, suppressing distress. The wrongdoers will have neither a close friend nor intercessor to be heard. Allah ˹even˺ knows the sly glances of the eyes and whatever the hearts conceal. And Allah judges with the truth, while those ˹idols˺ they invoke besides Him cannot judge at all. Indeed, Allah ˹alone˺ is the All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
Ghafir (Arabic: غافر, ghāfir; meaning: “The All-Forgiving”, referring to God), also known as Al-Muʼmin (Arabic: المؤمن, ’al-mu’min; meaning: The Believer), is the 40th chapter (sūrah) of the Qur’an, with 85 verses (āyāt).

وَأَنذِرْهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْءَازِفَةِ إِذِ ٱلْقُلُوبُ لَدَى ٱلْحَنَاجِرِ كَظِمِينَۚ مَا لِلظَّلِمِينَ مِنْ حَمِيمٍۢ وَلَا شَفِيعٍۢ يُطَاعُ ‎ ‏يَعْلَمُ خَآئِنَةَ ٱلْأَعْيُنِ وَمَا تُخْفِى ٱلصُّدُورُ ‎ ‏وَٱللَّهُ يَقْضِى بِٱلْحَقِّۖ وَٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِهِۦ لَا يَقْضُونَ بِشَىْءٍۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْبَصِيرُ
There are seven Surahs (al-Mu’min, HaMim al-Sajdah, al-Shura, al-Zukhruf, al-Dukhan, al-Jathiyah, al-Ahqaf) that begin with the word “HaMim”. Thus these seven Surahs are also called “al-Hawamim”. These are Surahs of Da’wah, inviting people to believe in Allah, take advantage of the mercy of Allah. There is solace and comfort in these Surahs for the Believers who were persecuted because of their faith and they are given the good news that the truth will prevail.
اور ان کو قریب آنے والے دن سے ڈراؤ جب کہ دل غم سے بھر کر گلوں تک آرہے ہوں گے۔ (اور) ظالموں کا کوئی دوست نہ ہوگا اور نہ کوئی سفارشی جس کی بات قبول کی جائے وہ آنکھوں کی خیانت کو جانتا ہے اور جو (باتیں) سینوں میں پوشیدہ ہیں (ان کو بھی) اور خدا سچائی کے ساتھ حکم فرماتا ہے اور جن کو یہ لوگ پکارتے ہیں وہ کچھ بھی حکم نہیں دے سکتے۔ بےشک خدا سننے والا (اور) دیکھنے والا ہے
