Translation of Verse 152-163

152. remember Me; I will remember you. And thank Me, and never be ungrateful.

153. O believers! Seek comfort in patience and prayer. Allah is truly with those who are patient.

154. Never say that those martyred in the cause of Allah are dead-in fact, they are alive! But you do not perceive it.

155. We will certainly test you with a touch of fear and famine and loss of property, life, and crops. Give good news to those who patiently endure-

156. who, when faced with a disaster, say, "Surely to Allah we belong and to Him we will ˹all˺ return."

157. They are the ones who will receive Allah's blessings and mercy. And it is they who are ˹rightly˺ guided.

158. Indeed, ˹the hills of˺ Ṣafa and Marwah ⁵² are among the symbols of Allah. So whoever performs the pilgrimage or minor pilgrimage, ⁵³ let them walk between ˹the two hills˺. And whoever does good willingly, Allah is truly Appreciative, All-Knowing.

159. Those who hide the clear proofs and guidance that We have revealed-after We made it clear for humanity in the Book-will be condemned by Allah and ˹all˺ those who condemn.

160. As for those who repent, mend their ways, and let the truth be known, they are the ones to whom I will turn ˹in forgiveness˺, for I am the Accepter of Repentance, Most Merciful.

161. Surely those who disbelieve and die as disbelievers are condemned by Allah, the angels, and all of humanity.

162. They will be in Hell forever. Their punishment will not be lightened, nor will they be delayed ˹from it˺.

163. Your God is ˹only˺ One God. There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him-the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.
