Translation of page 174

1. 7:179

   And We have certainly created for Hell many of the jinn and mankind. They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear. Those are like livestock; rather, they are more astray. It is they who are the heedless.

2. 7:180

   And to Allāh belong the best names, so invoke Him by them. And leave [the company of] those who practice deviation concerning His names. They will be recompensed for what they have been doing.

3. 7:181

   And among those We created is a community which guides by truth and thereby establishes justice.

4. 7:182

   But those who deny Our signs - We will progressively lead them [to destruction] from where they do not know.

5. 7:183

   And I will give them time. Indeed, My plan is firm.

6. 7:184

   Then do they not give thought? There is in their companion [i.e., Muḥammad (ﷺ)] no madness. He is not but a clear warner.

7. 7:185

   Do they not look into the realm of the heavens and the earth and everything that Allāh has created and [think] that perhaps their appointed time has come near? So in what statement [i.e., message] hereafter will they believe?

8. 7:186

   Whoever Allāh sends astray - there is no guide for him. And He leaves them in their transgression, wandering blindly.

9. 7:187

   They ask you, [O Muḥammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival? Say, "Its knowledge is only with my Lord. None will reveal its time except Him. It lays heavily upon the heavens and the earth. It will not come upon you except unexpectedly." They ask you as if you are familiar with it. Say, "Its knowledge is only with Allāh, but most of the people do not know."
