Read in Context

Chapter 16, Page 267, Juz 14

1. Allah’s command has (almost) come. So, do not demand that it should come sooner. Pure is He, and much higher than their ascribing partners to Him. 2. He sends down the angels at His behest with the spirit, (that is, the revelation), upon whom He wills from among His servants: “Warn people that there is no god but Me. So, fear Me.” 3. He created the heavens and the earth in the proper way. He is much higher than their ascribing partners to Him. 4. He created man from a drop, and soon he turned into a debating person, expressing himself openly. 5. He has created cattle in which there is warmth and other benefits for you; and from them you have food; 6. and in them there is a beautiful look for you when you drive them home in the evening and take them out to graze. 7. And they carry your loads to a city where you were not able to reach without putting yourselves to arduous labor. Surely, your Lord is Very-Kind, Very-Merciful. 8. And (He created) horses, mules and donkeys, so that you may ride on them, and they may give you a good look. And He creates what you do not know (as yet). 9. Undertaken by Allah is (to show) the right path, while there are some (paths) that are crooked. Had He so willed, He would have led all of you to the right path.
