Aliflammeem

A.L.M.

أَحَسِبَ ٱلنَّاسُ أَن يُتۡرَكُوٓاْ أَن يَقُولُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا وَهُمۡ لَا يُفۡتَنُونَ

Ahasiba alnnasu an yutrakoo an yaqooloo amanna wahum la yuftanoona

Do men think that they will be left alone on saying, "We believe", and that they will not be tested?

وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡۖ فَلَيَعۡلَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ صَدَقُواْ وَلَيَعۡلَمَنَّ ٱلۡكَٰذِبِينَ

Walaqad fatanna allatheena min qablihim falayaAAlamanna Allahu allatheena sadaqoo walayaAAlamanna alkathibeena

We did test those before them, and Allah will certainly know those who are true from those who are false.

أَمۡ حَسِبَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعۡمَلُونَ ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتِ أَن يَسۡبِقُونَاۚ سَآءَ مَا يَحۡكُمُونَ

Am hasiba allatheena yaAAmaloona alssayyiati an yasbiqoona saa ma yahkumoona

Do those who practise evil think that they will get the better of Us? Evil is their judgment!
