DAY 312: Saffat 149-182

•  Ask them ˹O Prophet˺ if your Lord has daughters, while the pagans ˹prefer to˺ have sons. Or ˹ask them˺ if We created the angels as females right before their eyes. Indeed, it is one of their ˹outrageous˺ fabrications to say, “Allah has children.” They are simply liars. Has He chosen daughters over sons? What is the matter with you? How do you judge? Will you not then be mindful? Or do you have ˹any˺ compelling proof? Then bring ˹us˺ your scripture, if what you say is true! They have also established a ˹marital˺ relationship between Him and the jinn. Yet the jinn ˹themselves˺ know well that such people will certainly be brought ˹for punishment˺. Glorified is Allah far above what they claim! But not the chosen servants of Allah. Surely you ˹pagans˺ and whatever ˹idols˺ you worship can never lure ˹anyone˺ away from Him except those ˹destined˺ to burn in Hell. ˹The angels respond,˺ “There is not one of us without an assigned station ˹of worship˺. We are indeed the ones lined up in ranks ˹for Allah˺. And we are indeed the ones ˹constantly˺ glorifying ˹His praise˺.” They certainly used to say, “If only we had a Reminder like ˹those of˺ earlier peoples, we would have truly been Allah’s devoted servants.” But ˹now˺ they reject it, so they will soon know. Our Word has already gone forth to Our servants, the messengers, that they would surely be helped, and that Our forces will certainly prevail. So turn away from the deniers for a while. You will see ˹what will happen to˺ them, and they too will see! Do they ˹really˺ wish to hasten Our punishment? Yet when it descends upon them: how evil will that morning be for those who had been warned! And turn away from them for a while. You will see, and they too will see! Glorified is your Lord—the Lord of Honour and Power—above what they claim! Peace be upon the messengers. And praise be to Allah—Lord of all worlds.

      Rejects a Silly Lie: It argues against the pagans who said that angels were Allah's daughters. It asks them, "Why would Allah have what you yourselves dislike (daughters) while you keep the sons? That makes no sense!" It says Allah is far above having children.
      Comforts the Believers: It tells the believers, "Don't worry, these liars can only mislead those who are already destined for Hell." It also states that Allah's promise is clear: His messengers and the believers will ultimately win.
  
      A Final Command and Praise:
          Command: God tells the Prophet Muhammad, "For now, just turn away from these people and wait. They will soon see the punishment they were asking for."
          Praise: The surah ends by praising God, saying:
              "God is too great to be described by their lies."
              "Peace and blessings to all the prophets."
              "And all thanks and praise are for God, the Lord of everyone and everything."
                     
   The surah concludes by powerfully refuting the pagans' false beliefs about God, assuring the believers of their ultimate victory, and ending with a declaration that God is far above their lies and deserves all praise.
