1 Kaf Ha Ya Ain Suad.

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Kaf. Ha. Ya. A'in. Sad.

2 A mention of the mercy of your Lord to His servant Zakariya.

2 A mention of the mercy of thy Lord unto His servant Zachariah.

3 When he called upon his Lord in a low voice,

3 When he cried unto his Lord a cry in secret,

4 He said: My Lord! surely my bones are weakened and my head flares with hoariness, and, my Lord! I have never been unsuccessful in my prayer to Thee:

4 Saying: My Lord! Lo! the bones of me wax feeble and my head is shining with grey hair, and I have never been unblest in prayer to Thee, my Lord.

5 And surely I fear my cousins after me, and my wife is barren, therefore grant me from Thyself an heir,

5 Lo! I fear my kinsfolk after me, since my wife is barren. Oh, give me from Thy presence a successor

6 Who should inherit me and inherit from the children of Yaqoub, and make him, my Lord, one in whom Thou art well pleased.

6 Who shall inherit of me and inherit (also) of the house of Jacob. And make him, my Lord, acceptable (unto Thee).

7 O Zakariya! surely We give you good news of a boy whose name shall be Yahya: We have not made before anyone his equal.

7 (It was said unto him): O Zachariah! Lo! We bring thee tidings of a son whose name is John; we have given the same name to none before (him).

8 He said: O my Lord! when shall I have a son, and my wife is barren, and I myself have reached indeed the extreme degree of old age?

8 He said: My Lord! How can I have a son when my wife is barren and I have reached infirm old age ?

9 He said: So shall it be, your Lord says: It is easy to Me, and indeed I created you before, when you were nothing.

9 He said: So (it will be). Thy Lord saith: It is easy for Me, even as I created thee before, when thou wast naught.

10 He said: My Lord! give me a sign. He said: Your sign is that you will not be able to speak to the people three nights while in sound health.

10 He said: My Lord! Appoint for me some token. He said: Thy token is that thou, with no bodily defect, shalt not speak unto mankind three nights.

11 So he went forth to his people from his place of worship, then he made known to them that they should glorify (Allah) morning and evening.

11 Then he came forth unto his people from the sanctuary, and signified to them: Glorify your Lord at break of day and fall of night.

12 O Yahya! take hold of the Book with strength, and We granted him wisdom while yet a child

12 (And it was said unto his son): O John! Hold fast the Scripture. And we gave him wisdom when a child,

13 And tenderness from Us and purity, and he was one who guarded (against evil),

13 And compassion from Our presence, and purity; and he was devout,

14 And dutiful to his parents, and he was not insolent, disobedient.

14 And dutiful toward his parents. And he was not arrogant, rebellious.

15 And peace on him on the day he was born, and on the day he dies, and on the day he is raised to life

15 Peace on him the day he was born, and the day he dieth and the day he shall be raised alive!

16 And mention Marium in the Book when she drew aside from her family to an eastern place;

16 And make mention of Mary in the Scripture, when she had withdrawn from her people to a chamber looking East,

17 So she took a veil (to screen herself) from them; then We sent to her Our spirit, and there appeared to her a well - made man.

17 And had chosen seclusion from them. Then We sent unto her Our Spirit and it assumed for her the likeness of a perfect man.

18 She said: Surely I fly for refuge from you to the Beneficent Allah, if you are one guarding (against evil).

18 She said: Lo! I seek refuge in the Beneficent One from thee, if thou art God - fearing.

19 He said: I am only a messenger of your Lord: That I will give you a pure boy.

19 He said: I am only a messenger of thy Lord, that I may bestow on thee a faultless son.

20 She said: When shall I have a boy and no mortal has yet touched me, nor have I been unchaste?

20 She said: How can I have a son when no mortal hath touched me, neither have I been unchaste ?

21 He said: Even so; your Lord says: It is easy to Me: and that We may make him a sign to men and a mercy from Us, and it is a matter which has been decreed.

21 He said: So (it will be). Thy Lord saith: It is easy for Me. And (it will be) that We may make of him a revelation for mankind and a mercy from Us, and it is a thing ordained.

22 So she conceived him; then withdrew herself with him to a remote place.

22 And she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a far place.

23 And the throes (of childbirth) compelled her to betake herself to the trunk of a palm tree. She said: Oh, would that I had died before this, and had been a thing quite forgotten!

23 And the pangs of childbirth drove her unto the trunk of the palm - tree. She said: Oh, would that I had died ere this and had become a thing of naught, forgotten!

24 Then (the child) called out to her from beneath her: Grieve not, surely your Lord has made a stream to flow beneath you;

24 Then (one) cried unto her from below her, saying: Grieve not! Thy Lord hath placed a rivulet beneath thee,

25 And shake towards you the trunk of the palmtree, it will drop on you fresh ripe dates:

25 And shake the trunk of the palm - tree toward thee, thou wilt cause ripe dates to fall upon thee.

26 So eat and drink and refresh the eye. Then if you see any mortal, say: Surely I have vowed a fast to the Beneficent Allah, so I shall not speak to any man today.

26 So eat and drink and be consoled. And if thou meetest any mortal, say: Lo! I have vowed a fast unto the Beneficent, and may not speak this day to any mortal.

27 And she came to her people with him, carrying him (with her). They said: O Marium! surely you have done a strange thing.

27 Then she brought him to her own folk, carrying him. They said: O Mary! Thou hast come with an amazing thing.

28 O sister of Haroun! your father was not a bad man, nor, was your mother an unchaste woman.

28 O sister of Aaron! Thy father was not a wicked man nor was thy mother a harlot.

29 But she pointed to him. They said: How should we speak to one who was a child in the cradle?

29 Then she pointed to him. They said: How can we talk to one who is in the cradle, a young boy ?

30 He said: Surely I am a servant of Allah; He has given me the Book and made me a prophet;

30 He spake: Lo! I am the slave of Allah. He hath given me the Scripture and hath appointed me a Prophet,

31 And He has made me blessed wherever I may be, and He has enjoined on me prayer and poor - rate so long as I live;

31 And hath made me blessed wheresoever I may be, and hath enjoined upon me prayer and almsgiving so long as I remain alive,

32 And dutiful to my mother, and He has not made me insolent, unblessed;

32 And (hath made me) dutiful toward her who bore me, and hath not made me arrogant, unblest.

33 And peace on me on the day I was born, and on the day I die, and on the day I am raised to life.

33 Peace on me the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I shall be raised alive!

34 Such is Isa, son of Marium; (this is) the saying of truth about which they dispute.

34 Such was Jesus, son of Mary: (this is) a statement of the truth concerning which they doubt.

35 It beseems not Allah that He should take to Himself a son, glory to be Him; when He has decreed a matter He only says to it "Be," and it is.

35 It befitteth not (the Majesty of) Allah that He should take unto Himself a son. Glory be to Him! When He decreeth a thing, He saith unto it only: Be! and it is.

36 And surely Allah is my Lord and your Lord, therefore serve Him; this is the right path.

36 And lo! Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So serve Him. That is the right path.

37 But parties from among them disagreed with each other, so woe to those who disbelieve, because of presence on a great day.

37 The sects among them differ: but woe unto the disbelievers from the meeting of an awful Day.

38 How clearly shall they hear and how clearly shall they see on the day when they come to Us; but the unjust this day are in manifest error.

38 See and hear them on the Day they come unto Us! yet the evil - doers are to - day in error manifest.

39 And warn them of the day of intense regret, when the matter shall have been decided; and they are (now) in negligence and they do not believe.

39 And warn them of the Day of anguish when the case hath been decided. Now they are in a state of carelessness, and they believe not.

40 Surely We inherit the earth and all those who are on it, and to Us they shall be returned.

40 Lo! We, only We, inherit the earth and all who are thereon, and unto Us they are returned.

41 And mention Ibrahim in the Book; surely he was a truthful man, a prophet.

41 And make mention (O Muhammad) in the Scripture of Abraham. Lo! he was a saint, a prophet.

42 When he said to his father; O my father! why do you worship what neither hears nor sees, nor does it avail you in the least:

42 When he said unto his father: O my father! Why worshippest thou that which heareth not nor seeth, nor can in aught avail thee ?

43 O my father! truly the knowledge has come to me which has not come to you, therefore follow me, I will guide you on a right path:

43 O my father! Lo! there hath come unto me of knowledge that which came not unto thee. So follow me, and I will lead thee on a right path.

44 O my father! serve not the Shaitan, surely the Shaitan is disobedient to the Beneficent Allah:

44 O my father! Serve not the devil. Lo! the devil is a rebel unto the Beneficent.

45 O my father! surely I fear that a punishment from the Beneficent Allah should afflict you so that you should be a friend of the Shaitan.

45 O my father! Lo! I fear lest a punishment from the Beneficent overtake thee so that thou become a comrade of the devil.

46 He said: Do you dislike my gods, O Ibrahim? If you do not desist I will certainly revile you, and leave me for a time.

46 He said: Rejectest thou my gods, O Abraham ? If thou cease not, I shall surely stone thee. Depart from me a long while!

47 He said: Peace be on you, I will pray to my Lord to forgive you; surely He is ever Affectionate to me:

47 He said: Peace be unto thee! I shall ask forgiveness of my Lord for thee. Lo! He was ever gracious unto me.

48 And I will withdraw from you and what you call on besides Allah, and I will call upon my Lord; may be I shall not remain unblessed in calling upon my Lord.

48 I shall withdraw from you and that unto which ye pray beside Allah, and I shall pray unto my Lord. It may be that, in prayer unto my Lord, I shall not be unblest.

49 So when he withdrew from them and what they worshipped besides Allah, We gave to him Ishaq and Yaqoub, and each one of them We made a prophet.

49 So, when he had withdrawn from them and that which they were worshipping beside Allah, We gave him Isaac and Jacob. Each of them We made a prophet.

50 And We granted to them of Our mercy, and We left (behind them) a truthful mention of eminence for them.

50 And we gave them of Our mercy, and assigned to them a high and true renown.

51 And mention Musa in the Book; surely he was one purified, and he was an apostle, a prophet.

51 And make mention in the Scripture of Moses. Lo! he was chosen, and he was a messenger (of Allah), a prophet.

52 And We called to him from the blessed side of the mountain, and We made him draw nigh, holding communion (with Us).

52 We called him from the right slope of the Mount, and brought him nigh in communion.

53 And We gave to him out of Our mercy his brother Haroun a prophet.

53 And We bestowed upon him of Our mercy his brother Aaron, a prophet (likewise).

54 And mention Ismail in the Book; surely he was truthful in (his) promise, and he was an apostle, a prophet.

54 And make mention in the Scripture of Ishmael. Lo! he was a keeper of his promise, and he was a messenger (of Allah), a prophet.

55 And he enjoined on his family prayer and almsgiving, and was one in whom his Lord was well pleased.

55 He enjoined upon his people worship and almsgiving, and was acceptable in the sight of his Lord.

56 And mention Idris in the Book; surely he was a truthful man, a prophet,

56 And make mention in the Scripture of Idris. Lo! he was a saint, a prophet;

57 And We raised him high in Heaven.

57 And We raised him to high station.

58 These are they on whom Allah bestowed favors, from among the prophets of the seed of Adam, and of those whom We carried with Nuh, and of the seed of Ibrahim and Israel, and of those whom We guided and chose; when the communications of the Beneficent Allah were recited to them, they fell down making obeisance and weeping.

58 These are they unto whom Allah showed favour from among the prophets, of the seed of Adam and of those whom We carried (in the ship) with Noah, and of the seed of Abraham and Israel, and from among those whom We guided and chose. When the revelations of the Beneficent were recited unto them, they fell down, adoring and weeping.

59 But there came after them an evil generation, who neglected prayers and followed and sensual desires, so they win meet perdition,

59 Now there hath succeeded them a later generation whom have ruined worship and have followed lusts. But they will meet deception.

60 Except such as repent and believe and do good, these shall enter the garden, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly in any way:

60 Save him who shall repent and believe and do right. Such will enter the Garden, and they will not be wronged in aught -

61 The gardens of perpetuity which the Beneficent Allah has promised to His servants while unseen; surely His promise shall come to pass.

61 Gardens of Eden, which the Beneficent hath promised to His slaves in the unseen. Lo! His promise is ever sure of fulfilment -

62 They shall not hear therein any vain discourse, but only: Peace, and they shall have their sustenance therein morning and evening.

62 They hear therein no idle talk, but only Peace; and therein they have food for morn and evening.

63 This is the garden which We cause those of Our servants to inherit who guard (against evil).

63 Such is the Garden which We cause the devout among Our bondmen to inherit.

64 And we do not descend but by the command of your Lord; to Him belongs whatever is before us and whatever is behind us and whatever is between these, and your Lord is not forgetful.

64 We (angels) come not down save by commandment of thy Lord. Unto Him belongeth all that is before us and all that is behind us and all that is between those two, and thy Lord was never forgetful -

65 The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, so serve Him and be patient in His service. Do you know any one equal to Him?

65 Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them! Therefor, worship thou Him and be thou steadfast in His service. Knowest thou one that can be named along with Him ?

66 And says man: What! when I am dead shall I truly be brought forth alive?

66 And man saith: When I am dead, shall I forsooth be brought forth alive ?

67 Does not man remember that We created him before, when he was nothing?

67 Doth not man remember that We created him before, when he was naught ?

68 So by your Lord! We will most certainly gather them together and the Shaitans, then shall We certainly cause them to be present round hell on their knees.

68 And, by thy Lord, verily We shall assemble them and the devils, then We shall bring them, crouching, around hell.

69 Then We will most certainly draw forth from every sect of them him who is most exorbitantly rebellious against the Beneficent Allah.

69 Then We shall pluck out from every sect whichever of them was most stubborn in rebellion to the Beneficent.

70 Again We do certainly know best those who deserve most to be burned therein.

70 And surely We are Best Aware of those most worthy to be burned therein.

71 And there is not one of you but shall come to it; this is an unavoidable decree of your Lord.

71 There is not one of you but shall approach it. That is a fixed ordinance of thy Lord.

72 And We will deliver those who guarded (against evil), and We will leave the unjust therein on their knees.

72 Then We shall rescue those who kept from evil, and leave the evil - doers crouching there.

73 And when Our clear communications are recited to them, those who disbelieve say to those who believe: Which of the two parties is best in abiding and best in assembly?

73 And when Our clear revelations are recited unto them, those who disbelieve say unto those who believe: Which of the two parties (yours or ours) is better in position, and more imposing as an army ?

74 And how many of the generations have We destroyed before them who were better in respect of goods and outward appearance!

74 How many a generation have We destroyed before them, who were more imposing in respect of gear and outward seeming!

75 Say: As for him who remains in error, the Beneficent Allah will surely prolong his length of days, until they see what they were threatened with, either the punishment or the hour; then they shall know who is in more evil plight and weaker in forces

75 Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will verily prolong his span of life until, when they behold that which they were promised, whether it be punishment (in the world), or the Hour (of doom), they will know who is worse in position and who is weaker as an army.

76 And Allah increases in guidance those who go aright; and ever - abiding good works are with your Lord best in recompense and best in yielding fruit.

76 Allah increaseth in right guidance those who walk aright, and the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better for resort.

77 Have you, then, seen him who disbelieves in Our communications and says: I shall certainly be given wealth and children?

77 Hast thou seen him who disbelieveth in Our revelations and saith: Assuredly I shall be given wealth and children ?

78 Has he gained knowledge of the unseen, or made a covenant with the Beneficent Allah?

78 Hath he perused the Unseen, or hath he made a pact with the Beneficent ?

79 By no means! We write down what he says, and We will lengthen to him the length of the chastisement

79 Nay, but We shall record that which he saith and prolong for him a span of torment.

80 And We will inherit of him what he says, and he shall come to Us alone.

80 And We shall inherit from him that whereof he spake, and he will come unto Us, alone (without his wealth and children).

81 And they have taken gods besides Allah, that they should be to them a source of strength;

81 And they have chosen (other) gods beside Allah that they may be a power for them.

82 By no means! They shall soon deny their worshipping them, and they shall be adversaries to them.

82 Nay, but they will deny their worship of them, and become opponents unto them.

83 Do you not see that We have sent the Shaitans against the unbelievers, inciting them by incitement?

83 Seest thou not that We have set the devils on the disbelievers to confound them with confusion ?

84 Therefore be not in haste against them, We only number out to them a number (of days).

84 So make no haste against them (O Muhammad). We do but number unto them a sum (of days).

85 The day on which We will gather those who guard (against evil) to the Beneficent Allah to receive honors

85 On the day when We shall gather the righteous unto the Beneficent, a goodly company.

86 And We will drive the guilty to hell thirsty

86 And drive the guilty unto hell, a weary herd,

87 They shall not control intercession, save he who has made a covenant with the Beneficent Allah.

87 They will have no power of intercession, save him who hath made a covenant with his Lord.

88 And they say: The Beneficent Allah has taken (to Himself) a son.

88 And they say: The Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a son.

89 Certainly you have made an abominable assertion

89 Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing

90 The heavens may almost be rent thereat, and the earth cleave asunder, and the mountains fall down in pieces,

90 Whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split asunder and the mountains fall in ruins,

91 That they ascribe a son to the Beneficent Allah.

91 That ye ascribe unto the Beneficent a son,

92 And it is not worthy of the Beneficent Allah that He should take (to Himself) a son.

92 When it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that He should choose a son.

93 There is no one in the heavens and the earth but will come to the Beneficent Allah as a servant.

93 There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the Beneficent as a slave.

94 Certainly He has a comprehensive knowledge of them and He has numbered them a (comprehensive) numbering.

94 Verily He knoweth them and numbereth them with (right) numbering.

95 And every one of them will come to Him on the day of resurrection alone.

95 And each one of them will come unto Him on the Day of Resurrection, alone.

96 Surely (as for) those who believe and do good deeds for them will Allah bring about love.

96 Lo! those who believe and do good works, the Beneficent will appoint for them love.

97 So We have only made it easy in your tongue that you may give good news thereby to those who guard (against evil) and warn thereby a vehemently contentious people.

97 And We make (this Scripture) easy in thy tongue, (O Muhammad) only that thou mayst bear good tidings therewith unto those who ward off (evil), and warn therewith the froward folk.

98 And how many a generation have We destroyed before them! Do you see any one of them or hear a sound of them?

98 And how many a generation before them have We destroyed! Canst thou (Muhammad) see a single man of them, or hear from them the slightest sound ?
