e who were before them, they disbelieved
Our revelations and so Allah seized them for their sins. And Allah is
severe in punishment.
S: Like the striving of the people of Firon and those before them; they
rejected Our communications, so Allah destroyed them on account of
their faults; and Allah is severe in requiting (evil).

Y: Say to those who reject Faith: "Soon will ye be vanquished and
gathered together to Hell,-an evil bed indeed (to lie on)!"
P: Say (O Muhammad) unto those who disbelieve: Ye shall be overcome and
gathered unto Hell, an evil resting-place.
S: Say to those who disbelieve: You shall be vanquished, and driven
together to hell; and evil is the resting-place.

Y: "There has already been for you a Sign in the two armies that met (in
combat): One was fighting in the cause of Allah, the other resisting
Allah; these saw with their own eyes Twice their number. But Allah doth
support with His aid whom He pleaseth. In this is a warning for such as
have eyes to see."
P: There was a token for you in two hosts which met: one army fighting
in the way of Allah, and another disbelieving, whom they saw as twice
their number, clearly, with their very eyes. Thus Allah strengtheneth
with His succour whom He will. Lo! herein verily is a lesson for those
who have eyes.
S: Indeed there was a sign for you in the two hosts (which) met together
in encounter; one party fighting in the way of Allah and the other
unbelieving, whom they saw twice as many as themselves with the sight
of the eye and Allah strengthens with His aid whom He pleases; most
surely there is a lesson in this for those who have sight.

Y: Fair in the eyes of men is the love of things they covet: Women and
sons; Heaped-up hoards of gold and silver; horses branded (for blood
and excellence); and (wealth of) cattle and well-tilled land. Such are
the possessions of this world's life; but in nearness to Allah is the
best of the goals (To return to).
P: Beautified for mankind is love of the joys (that come) from women and
offspring; and stored-up heaps of gold and silver, and horses branded
(with their mark), and cattle and land. That is comfort of the life of
the world. Allah! With Him is a more excellent abode.
S: The love of desires, of women and sons and hoarded treasures of gold
and silver and well bred horses and cattle and tilth, is made to seem
fair to men; this is the provision of the life of this world; and
