25:14 "This day plead not for a single destruction: plead for destruction oft-repeated!"
La tadAAoo alyawma thubooran wahidanwaodAAoo thubooran katheeran
25:15 Say: "Is that best, or the eternal garden, promised to the righteous? for them, that is a reward as well as a goal (of attainment).

Lahum feeha ma yashaoonakhalideena kana AAala rabbika waAAdanmas-oolan
25:17 The day He will gather them together as well as those whom they worship besides Allah, He will ask: "Was it ye who let these My servants astray, or did they stray from the Path themselves?"
Wayawma yahshuruhum wamayaAAbudoona min dooni Allahi fayaqoolu aantum adlaltumAAibadee haola-i am hum dalloo alssabeela

25:20 And the apostles whom We sent before thee were all (men) who ate food and walked through the streets: We have made some of you as a trial for others: will ye have patience? for Allah is One Who sees (all things).
Wama arsalna qablaka minaalmursaleena illa innahum laya/kuloona alttaAAamawayamshoona fee al-aswaqi wajaAAalna baAAdakumlibaAAdin fitnatan atasbiroona wakanarabbuka baseeran
25:21 Such as fear not the meeting with Us (for Judgment) say: "Why are not the angels sent down to us, or (why) do we not see our Lord?" Indeed they have an arrogant conceit of themselves, and mighty is the insolence of their impiety!

Almulku yawma-ithin alhaqqu lilrrahmaniwakana yawman AAala alkafireena AAaseeran
25:27 The Day that the wrong-doer will bite at his hands, he will say, "Oh! would that I had taken a (straight) path with the Apostle!

25:28 "Ah! woe is me! Would that I had never taken such a one for a friend!
Ya waylata laytanee lamattakhith fulanan khaleelan
25:29 "He did lead me astray from the Message (of Allah) after it had come to me! Ah! the Evil One is but a traitor to man!" Then the Apostle will say:

25:33 And no question do they bring to thee but We reveal to thee the truth and the best explanation (thereof).
Wala ya/toonaka bimathalin illaji/naka bialhaqqi waahsana tafseeran

25:38 As also 'Ad and Thamud, and the Companions of the Rass, and many a generation between them.
WaAAadan wathamooda waas-habaalrrassi waquroonan bayna thalika katheeran
25:39 To each one We set forth Parables and examples; and each one We broke to utter annihilation (for their sins).
Wakullan darabna lahu al-amthalawakullan tabbarna tatbeeran
25:40 And the (Unbelievers) must indeed have passed by the town on which was rained a shower of evil: did they not then see it (with their own eyes)? But they fear not the Resurrection.
Walaqad ataw AAala alqaryati allateeomtirat matara alssaw-i afalam yakoonooyarawnaha bal kanoo la yarjoona nushooran

Wa-itha raawka in yattakhithoonakailla huzuwan ahatha allathee baAAatha Allahurasoolan
25:42 "He indeed would well-nigh have misled us from our gods, had it not been that we were constant to them!" - Soon will they know, when they see the Penalty, who it is that is most misled in Path!
