but most people do not believe
2- Allah is who lifted the heavens without pillars that you can see them,

and from every fruitful made in it two pairs,
membranes the night over the morning (causes the night to cover the morning),
indeed, in these are signs for people who give thought
4- And in the earth are adjacent tracts, and gardens of grapes and plants and palm trees twins and none twins all watered with one water, and we favorer some of them over some to eat, indeed in that are signs for folks who reason
5) And if you (Muhammed) wonder (about their change of heart about you, that they say you are lying), then it’s astonishing (After all these signs for resurrection) their saying “ That if we were to become dust, then we will be into new creation”
those are the ones who disbelieved in their God,
and those have shackles on their necks, and those are the companions of fire, they are in it eternally
6- And they hasten you for the bad (Torment as proof) before the good (guidance),
while has already occurred from before them the likes (analogies),
and indeed, your God is of forgiveness for the people on their transgression, (Will not hasten the torment in hope of repentance)
and indeed, your God is severe in retribution
7- And says those who disbelieved “If only a sign comes down upon him (a physical miracle) from his God?”,
You (Muhammed) are but a warner (Quran is your Miracle),

while they dispute about Allah (useless waste of time),
and Allah is mighty in plans (cannot be disputed or over taken)
14- From Him (Allah) comes the true calling (Calling To believe in one God),
and those who supplicate to those that are beneath Him,
they (Other than Allah e.g. idols) do not respond to them with anything,

and He is not reaching it,
and the calling of the disbelievers is not but in stray
15- And to Allah prostrate (Ultimate submission and humility) those in the heavens and the earth,
willingly and by compulsion (All subjected to God’s commands, even rebellious humans with freewill are subjected but with choices), so do their shadows in the mornings and evenings
16- Say (Muhammed) “Who is the God of the heavens and the earth” Say (Muhammed) “Allah”, say “Then have you taken from among those lower than Him allies, who do not possess to themselves benefit nor harm?, do the blind equate to the seeing?

and from which they heat upon fire desiring ornaments or goods , is foams like it (Metal filtrations or Gold purifications when heated, e.g. for the City dwellers),
like this Allah strikes the truth and the falsehood, as for the foam (Impurities) it goes stale (washed off), and as for what benefits the people it stays in the earth, like this Allah strikes likeness
18- For those who have responded to their God in what is better, and those who did not respond to Him, if it was for them what in the earth in its entirety and the like of it with it they would have ransomed

rejoices at what was brought down to you (The Quran, which fulfilled the prophecies about Muhammad (PBUH) found in their books, and refuting the distortions aimed at gaining temporal authority. These distortions included claims of holiness, the trade in indulgences, the sale of Paradise, the receipt of confessions, and other practices not revealed in any divine scripture.)
And among the factions are who denies some of it, (To defend their authority in trading in religion)
Say” I have indeed, was commanded to worship Allah, and do not associate with Him,
To Him I call
And to Him is my return”

It is upon you (your duty) to report (Deliver the Message)
And upon Us to accounting (Judgment day)

The Holy Quran, in its essence, is a divine revelation that can only be fully appreciated in its original Arabic language. Any translation or interpretation, including the one presented here, is not and cannot be a replacement for the Arabic Holy Quran. I intended to offer an English rendering that remains faithful to the original Arabic. I am neither a scholar nor do I possess any formal Islamic qualifications. My approach to this translation is empirical, drawing upon my readings of selected scholarly interpretations, personal experiences, and understanding of the Holy Quran as a Muslim native Arabic speaker.
