Quran 7:53

Do they only await the fulfilment ˹of its warning˺? The Day it will be fulfilled, those who ignored it before will say, “The messengers of our Lord certainly came with the truth. Are there any intercessors who can plead on our behalf? Or can we be sent back so we may do ˹good,˺ unlike what we used to do?” They will have certainly ruined themselves, and whatever ˹gods˺ they fabricated will fail them. Quran 7:53
The Surah is named after the story of the men awaiting on the “Elevations” between Paradise and Hell.
It comprises of 206 Ayat.

هَلۡ یَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا تَأۡوِیلَهُۥۚ یَوۡمَ یَأۡتِی تَأۡوِیلُهُۥ یَقُولُ ٱلَّذِینَ نَسُوهُ مِن قَبۡلُ قَدۡ جَاۤءَتۡ رُسُلُ رَبِّنَا بِٱلۡحَقِّ فَهَل لَّنَا مِن شُفَعَاۤءَ فَیَشۡفَعُوا۟ لَنَاۤ أَوۡ نُرَدُّ فَنَعۡمَلَ غَیۡرَ ٱلَّذِی كُنَّا نَعۡمَلُۚ قَدۡ خَسِرُوۤا۟ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَضَلَّ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ یَفۡتَرُونَ
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.
اب کیا یہ لوگ اِس کے سوا کسی اور بات کے منتظر ہیں کہ وہ انجام سامنے آ جائے جس کی یہ کتاب خبر دے رہی ہے؟ جس روز وہ انجام سامنے آ گیا وہی لوگ جنہوں نے اسے نظر انداز کر دیا تھا کہیں گے کہ "واقعی ہمارے رب کے رسول حق لے کر آئے تھے، پھر کیا اب ہمیں کچھ سفارشی ملیں گے جو ہمارے حق میں سفارش کریں؟ یا ہمیں دوبارہ واپس ہی بھیج دیا جائے تاکہ جو کچھ ہم پہلے کرتے تھے اس کے بجائے اب دوسرے طریقے پر کام کر کے دکھائیں" انہوں نے اپنے آپ کو خسارے میں ڈال دیا اور وہ سارے جھوٹ جو انہوں نے تصنیف کر رکھے تھے آج ان سے گم ہو گئے

Quran 7:48~51

Those on the heights will call out to some ˹tyrants in the Fire˺, who they will recognize by their appearance, saying, “Your large numbers and arrogance are of no use ˹today˺! Are these ˹humble believers˺ the ones you swore would never be shown Allah’s mercy?” ˹Finally, those on the heights will be told:˺ “Enter Paradise! There is no fear for you, nor will you grieve.” The residents of the Fire will then cry out to the residents of Paradise, “Aid us with some water or any provision Allah has granted you.” They will reply, “Allah has forbidden both to the disbelievers, those who took this faith ˹of Islam˺ as mere amusement and play and were deluded by ˹their˺ worldly life.” ˹Allah will say,˺ “Today We will ignore them just as they ignored the coming of this Day of theirs and for rejecting Our revelations.” Quran 7:48~51

Quran 17:13~15

We have bound every human’s destiny to their neck. And on the Day of Judgment We will bring forth to each ˹person˺ a record which they will find laid open. ˹And it will be said,˺ “Read your record. You ˹alone˺ are sufficient this Day to take account of yourself.” Whoever chooses to be guided, it is only for their own good. And whoever chooses to stray, it is only to their own loss. No soul burdened with sin will bear the burden of another. And We would never punish ˹a people˺ until We have sent a messenger ˹to warn them˺. Quran 17:13~15
Al-Isrāʾ (Arabic: الإسراء; meaning: The Night Journey), also known as Banī Isrāʾīl (Arabic: بني إسرائيل; meaning:
The Children of Israel) is the 17th chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 111 verses (āyāt).

وَكُلَّ إِنسَـٰنٍ أَلۡزَمۡنَـٰهُ طَـٰۤىِٕرَهُۥ فِی عُنُقِهِۦۖ وَنُخۡرِجُ لَهُۥ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِیَـٰمَةِ كِتَـٰبࣰا یَلۡقَىٰهُ مَنشُورًا ٱقۡرَأۡ كِتَـٰبَكَ كَفَىٰ بِنَفۡسِكَ ٱلۡیَوۡمَ عَلَیۡكَ حَسِیبࣰا مَّنِ ٱهۡتَدَىٰ فَإِنَّمَا یَهۡتَدِی لِنَفۡسِهِۦۖ وَمَن ضَلَّ فَإِنَّمَا یَضِلُّ عَلَیۡهَاۚ وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةࣱ وِزۡرَ أُخۡرَىٰۗ وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِینَ حَتَّىٰ نَبۡعَثَ رَسُولࣰا
The word Isra’ refers to the “night journey” of the prophet Muhammad.
This surah is part of a series al-Musabbihat surahs because it begins with the glorification of God.
اور ہم نے ہر انسان کے اعمال کو (بہ صورت کتاب) اس کے گلے میں لٹکا دیا ہے۔ اور قیامت کے روز (وہ) کتاب اسے نکال دکھائیں گے جسے وہ کھلا ہوا دیکھے گا (کہا جائے گا کہ) اپنی کتاب پڑھ لے۔ تو آج اپنا آپ ہی محاسب کافی ہے جو شخص ہدایت اختیار کرتا ہے تو اپنے لئے اختیار کرتا ہے۔ اور جو گمراہ ہوتا ہے گمراہی کا ضرر بھی اسی کو ہوگا۔ اور کوئی شخص کسی دوسرے کا بوجھ نہیں اٹھائے گا۔ اور جب تک ہم پیغمبر نہ بھیج لیں عذاب نہیں دیا کرتے
This surah takes its name from the first verse which, in Islamic tradition, tells the event of the Isra, the transportation of Muhammad during the night from the Great Mosque of Mecca to what is referred to as “the farthest Mosque”.” The exact location is specified in the Qurran in Arabic words أَسۡرَىٰ بِعَبۡدِهِۦ لَيۡلٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ إِلَى ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡأَقۡصَا [2] but this is commonly taken to Noble Sanctuary (Temple Mount) in Jerusalem. Some scholars disagree about this (see Isra and Mi’raj) lively . While the city of Jerusalem (or al Quds , Al-Aqsa mosque) is mentioned by name anywhere in the Qur’an,[citation needed] The first verse refers to Mohammed being taken from the ‘Masjid ul-harram’ to the ‘Masjid al-Aqsa’:
Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We (God) did bless,- so that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things).

Quran 28:62~66

˹Watch for˺ the Day He will call to them, “Where are those you claimed were My associate-gods?” Those ˹misleaders˺ against whom the decree ˹of torment˺ is justified will cry, “Our Lord! These ˹followers˺ are the ones we caused to deviate. We led them into deviance, for we ourselves were deviant. We disassociate ourselves ˹from them˺ before You. It was not us that they used to worship.” It will be said ˹to the disbelievers˺, “Call upon your associate-gods ˹for help˺.” So they will call them, but will receive no response. And they will face the punishment, wishing they had been ˹rightly˺ guided! And ˹watch for˺ the Day He will call to them, asking, “What response did you give to the messengers?” They will be too dumbstruck on that Day to ask one another ˹for answers˺.

Quran 27:87~88

And ˹beware of˺ the Day the Trumpet will be blown, and all those in the heavens and all those on the earth will be horrified ˹to the point of death˺, except those Allah wills ˹to spare˺. And all will come before Him, fully humbled. Now you see the mountains, thinking they are firmly fixed, but they are travelling ˹just˺ like clouds. ˹That is˺ the design of Allah, Who has perfected everything. Surely He is All-Aware of what you do. Quran 27:87~88

The theme of the Surah is divine guidance in history.
Allah sent His Prophets to different people. Some accepted them and were guided,
while others denied them and they saw the consequences of their denial.
The Surah also contrasts between the principles of Tawhid and shirk.
اور جس دن صُور پھونکا جائے گا تو وہ (سب لوگ) گھبرا جائیں گے جو آسمانوں میں ہیں اور جو زمین میں ہیں مگر جنہیں اللہ چاہے گا (نہیں گھبرائیں گے)، اور سب اس کی بارگاہ میں عاجزی کرتے ہوئے حاضر ہوں گے، اور (اے انسان!) تو پہاڑوں کو دیکھے گا تو خیال کرے گا کہ جمے ہوئے ہیں حالانکہ وہ بادل کے اڑنے کی طرح اڑ رہے ہوں گے۔ (یہ) اللہ کی کاریگری ہے جس نے ہر چیز کو (حکمت و تدبیر کے ساتھ) مضبوط و مستحکم بنا رکھا ہے۔ بیشک وہ ان سب (کاموں) سے خبردار ہے جو تم کرتے ہو،

Quran 27:71~75

They ask ˹the believers˺, “When will this threat come to pass, if what you say is true?” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Perhaps some of what you seek to hasten is close at hand.” Surely your Lord is ever Bountiful to humanity, but most of them are ungrateful. And surely your Lord knows what their hearts conceal and what they reveal. For there is nothing hidden in the heavens or the earth without being ˹written˺ in a perfect Record. Quran 27:71~75

وَیَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَـٰذَا ٱلۡوَعۡدُ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَـٰدِقِینَ قُلۡ عَسَىٰۤ أَن یَكُونَ رَدِفَ لَكُم بَعۡضُ ٱلَّذِی تَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُو فَضۡلٍ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا یَشۡكُرُونَ وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَیَعۡلَمُ مَا تُكِنُّ صُدُورُهُمۡ وَمَا یُعۡلِنُونَ وَمَا مِنۡ غَاۤىِٕبَةࣲ فِی ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ إِلَّا فِی كِتَـٰبࣲ مُّبِینٍ
The theme of the Surah is divine guidance in history.
Allah sent His Prophets to different people. Some accepted them and were guided,
while others denied them and they saw the consequences of their denial.
The Surah also contrasts between the principles of Tawhid and shirk.
اور کہتے ہیں کہ اگر تم سچے ہو تو یہ وعدہ کب پورا ہوگا؟ کہہ دو کہ جس (عذاب) کے لئے تم جلدی کر رہے ہو شاید اس میں سے کچھ تمہارے نزدیک آپہنچا ہو اور تمہارا پروردگار تو لوگوں پر فضل کرنے والا ہے لیکن ان میں سے اکثر شکر نہیں کرتے اور جو باتیں ان کے سینوں میں پوشیدہ ہوتی ہیں اور جو کام وہ ظاہر کرتے ہیں تمہارا پروردگار ان (سب) کو جانتا ہے اور آسمانوں اور زمین میں کوئی پوشیدہ چیز نہیں ہے مگر (وہ) کتاب روشن میں (لکھی ہوئی) ہے

Quran 27:65~69

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “None in the heavens and the earth has knowledge of the unseen except Allah. Nor do they know when they will be resurrected. No! Their knowledge of the Hereafter amounts to ignorance. In fact, they are in doubt about it. In truth, they are ˹totally˺ blind to it. The disbelievers ask, “When we and our fathers are reduced to dust, will we really be brought forth ˹alive˺? We have already been promised this, as well as our forefathers earlier. This is nothing but ancient fables!” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Travel throughout the land and see the fate of the wicked.” Quran 27:65~69

کہہ دو کہ جو لوگ آسمانوں اور زمین میں ہیں خدا کے سوا غیب کی باتیں نہیں جانتے۔ اور نہ یہ جانتے ہیں کہ کب (زندہ کرکے) اٹھائے جائیں گے بلکہ آخرت (کے بارے) میں ان کا علم منتہی ہوچکا ہے بلکہ وہ اس سے شک میں ہیں۔ بلکہ اس سے اندھے ہو رہے ہیں اور جو لوگ کافر ہیں کہتے ہیں جب ہم اور ہمارے باپ دادا مٹی ہو جائیں گے تو کیا ہم پھر (قبروں سے) نکالے جائیں گے یہ وعدہ ہم سے اور ہمارے باپ دادا سے پہلے سے ہوتا چلا آیا ہے (کہاں کا اُٹھنا اور کیسی قیامت) یہ تو صرف پہلے لوگوں کی کہانیاں ہیں کہہ دو کہ ملک میں چلو پھرو پھر دیکھو کہ گنہگاروں کا انجام کیا ہوا ہے
