| 18:21 | 2 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | That is how We caused them to be discovered so that their people might know that Allah’s promise ˹of resurrection˺ is true and that there is no doubt about the Hour.1 When the people disputed with each other about the case of the youth ˹after their death˺,2 some proposed, “Build a structure around them. Their Lord knows best about them.” Those who prevailed in the matter said, “We will surely build a place of worship over them.” | |
| 18:22 | 1 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Some will say, “They were three, their dog was the fourth,” while others will say, “They were five, their dog was the sixth,” ˹only˺ guessing blindly. And others will say, “They were seven and their dog was the eighth.” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “My Lord knows best their ˹exact˺ number. Only a few people know as well.” So do not argue about them except with sure knowledge,1 nor consult any of those ˹who debate˺ about them. | |
| 18:23 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And never say of anything, “I will definitely do this tomorrow,” | |
| 18:24 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | without adding, “if Allah so wills!” But if you forget, then remember your Lord, and say, “I trust my Lord will guide me to what is more right than this.” | |

| 18:26 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Allah knows best how long they stayed. With Him ˹alone˺ is ˹the knowledge of˺ the unseen of the heavens and the earth. How perfectly He hears and sees! They have no guardian besides Him, and He shares His command with none.” | |
| 18:27 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Recite what has been revealed to you from the Book of your Lord. None can change His Words, nor can you find any refuge besides Him. | |
| 18:28 | 1 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And patiently stick with those who call upon their Lord morning and evening, seeking His pleasure.1 Do not let your eyes look beyond them, desiring the luxuries of this worldly life. And do not obey those whose hearts We have made heedless of Our remembrance, who follow ˹only˺ their desires and whose state is ˹total˺ loss. | |
| 18:29 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “˹This is˺ the truth from your Lord. Whoever wills let them believe, and whoever wills let them disbelieve.” Surely We have prepared for the wrongdoers a Fire whose walls will ˹completely˺ surround them. When they cry for aid, they will be aided with water like molten metal, which will burn ˹their˺ faces. What a horrible drink! And what a terrible place to rest! | |
| 18:30 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | As for those who believe and do good, We certainly never deny the reward of those who are best in deeds. | |

And what a fabulous place to rest! | |

| 18:33 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | Each garden yielded ˹all˺ its produce, never falling short. And We caused a river to flow between them. | |
| 18:34 | 1 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And he had other resources1 ˹as well˺. So he boasted to a ˹poor˺ companion of his, while conversing with him, “I am greater than you in wealth and superior in manpower.” | |
| 18:35 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | And he entered his property, while wronging his soul, saying, “I do not think this will ever perish, | |
| 18:36 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | nor do I think the Hour will ˹ever˺ come. And if in fact I am returned to my Lord, I will definitely get a far better outcome than ˹all˺ this.” | |
| 18:37 | 1 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | His ˹believing˺ companion replied, while conversing with him, “Do you disbelieve in the One Who created you from dust,1 then ˹developed you˺ from a sperm-drop, then formed you into a man? | |
| 18:38 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | But as for me: He is Allah, my Lord, and I will never associate anyone with my Lord ˹in worship˺. | |

| 18:40 | 0 | Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran | perhaps my Lord will grant me ˹something˺ better than your garden, and send down upon your garden a thunderbolt from the sky, turning it into a barren waste. | |
