The Holy Quran 57:25 — Surah Al-Hadid

Arabic text

لَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا بِٱلْبَيِّنَـٰتِ وَأَنزَلْنَا مَعَهُمُ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ وَٱلْمِيزَانَ لِيَقُومَ ٱلنَّاسُ بِٱلْقِسْطِ ۖ وَأَنزَلْنَا ٱلْحَدِيدَ فِيهِ بَأْسٌ شَدِيدٌ وَمَنَـٰفِعُ لِلنَّاسِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُۥ وَرُسُلَهُۥ بِٱلْغَيْبِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَوِىٌّ عَزِيزٌ

Translation

Indeed We have sent Our Rusul with clear proofs (laws and injunctions) and sent with them the Book (divine scriptures) and the Scale (laws to enforce justice) so that people uphold justice (by acting according to the Shari'ah). And (in addition to the many favours We have given mankind) We have (also) sent (created) iron (which is indispensable to man and) which holds great (fighting) power (when used to make weapons of war) and benefits for man. (Allaah has created iron for man) So that He knows who will (use the weapons made from iron to) assist Him (His Deen) and His Rusul without seeing Him (Allaah and without seeing the rewards of the Aakhirah). Verily Allaah is Powerful, Mighty. (Although Allaah does not need man's assistance to promote His Deen, He instructs man to assist in its propagation for man's own benefit.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

لقد أرسلنا رسلنا بالحجج الواضحات، وأنزلنا معهم الكتاب بالأحكام والشرائع، وأنزلنا الميزان؛ ليتعامل الناس بينهم بالعدل، وأنزلنا لهم الحديد، فيه قوة شديدة، ومنافع للناس متعددة، وليعلم الله علمًا ظاهرًا للخلق من ينصر دينه ورسله بالغيب. إن الله قوي لا يُقْهَر، عزيز لا يغالَب.
