And among His signs are the ships like mountains ˹sailing˺ in the sea.
42:32
If He wills, He can calm the wind, leaving the ships motionless on the water. Surely in this are signs for whoever is steadfast, grateful.
42:33
Or He can wreck the ships for what the people have committed—though He forgives much—
42:34
so those who dispute about Our signs may know that they have no refuge.
42:35
Whatever ˹pleasure˺ you have been given is ˹no more than a fleeting˺ enjoyment of this worldly life. But what is with Allah is far better and more lasting for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord;
42:36
who avoid major sins and shameful deeds, and forgive when angered;
42:37
who respond to their Lord, establish prayer, conduct their affairs by mutual consultation, and donate from what We have provided for them;
42:38
and who enforce justice when wronged.
42:39
The reward of an evil deed is its equivalent. But whoever pardons and seeks reconciliation, then their reward is with Allah. He certainly does not like the wrongdoers.
42:40
There is no blame on those who enforce justice after being wronged.
42:41
Blame is only on those who wrong people and transgress in the land unjustly. It is they who will suffer a painful punishment.
42:42
And whoever endures patiently and forgives—surely this is a resolve to aspire to.
42:43
And whoever Allah leaves to stray will have no guide after Him. You will see the wrongdoers, when they face the torment, pleading, “Is there any way back ˹to the world˺?”
42:44
