بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ص ۚ والقرآن ذي الذكر
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Sad. [These letters (Sad, etc.) are one of the miracles of the Qur'an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings]. By the Qur'an full of reminding (explanations and honour for the one who believes in it).
وعجبوا أن جاءهم منذر منهم ۖ وقال الكافرون هذا ساحر كذاب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
And they (Arab pagans) wonder that a warner (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) has come to them from among themselves. And the disbelievers say: "This (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) is a sorcerer, a liar.
أأنزل عليه الذكر من بيننا ۚ بل هم في شك من ذكري ۖ بل لما يذوقوا عذاب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
"Has the Reminder been sent down to him (alone) from among us?" Nay, but they are in doubt about My Reminder (this Qur'an)! Nay, but they have not tasted (My) Torment!
(As they denied Allah's Message) they will be a defeated host like the Confederates of the old times (who were defeated).

كذبت قبلهم قوم نوح وعاد وفرعون ذو الأوتاد
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Before them (were many who) belied (Messengers) - the people of Nuh (Noah); and 'Ad; and Fir'aun (Pharaoh) the man of stakes (with which he used to punish the people),
And these only wait for a single Saihah [shout (i.e. the blowing of the Trumpet by the angel Israfil -)] there will be no pause or ending thereto [till everything will perish except Allah (the only God full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour)].
اصبر على ما يقولون واذكر عبدنا داوود ذا الأيد ۖ إنه أواب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Be patient (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) of what they say, and remember Our slave Dawud (David), endued with power. Verily, he was ever oft-returning in all matters and in repentance (toward Allah).
Verily, We made the mountains to glorify Our Praises with him [Dawud (David)] in the 'Ashi (i.e. after the mid-day till sunset) and Ishraq (i.e. after the sunrise till mid-day).
And (so did) the birds assembled: all obedient to him [Dawud (David)] [i.e. they came and glorified Allah's Praises along with him]. (Tafsir Al-Qurtubi ).

وشددنا ملكه وآتيناه الحكمة وفصل الخطاب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
We made his kingdom strong and gave him Al-Hikmah (Prophethood) and sound judgement in speech and decision.
إذ دخلوا على داوود ففزع منهم ۖ قالوا لا تخف ۖ خصمان بغى بعضنا على بعض فاحكم بيننا بالحق ولا تشطط واهدنا إلى سواء الصراط
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
When they entered in upon Dawud (David), he was terrified of them. They said: "Fear not! (We are) two litigants, one of whom has wronged the other, therefore judge between us with truth, and treat us not with injustice, and guide us to the Right Way.
إن هذا أخي له تسع وتسعون نعجة ولي نعجة واحدة فقال أكفلنيها وعزني في الخطاب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Verily, this my brother (in religion) has ninety-nine ewes, while I have (only) one ewe, and he says: "Hand it over to me, and he overpowered me in speech."
قال لقد ظلمك بسؤال نعجتك إلى نعاجه ۖ وإن كثيرا من الخلطاء ليبغي بعضهم على بعض إلا الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات وقليل ما هم ۗ وظن داوود أنما فتناه فاستغفر ربه وخر راكعا وأناب ۩
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
[Dawud (David)] said (immediately without listening to the opponent): "He has wronged you in demanding your ewe in addition to his ewes. And, verily, many partners oppress one another, except those who believe and do righteous good deeds, and they are few." And Dawud (David) guessed that We have tried him and he sought Forgiveness of his Lord, and he fell down prostrate and turned (to Allah) in repentance.
يا داوود إنا جعلناك خليفة في الأرض فاحكم بين الناس بالحق ولا تتبع الهوى فيضلك عن سبيل الله ۚ إن الذين يضلون عن سبيل الله لهم عذاب شديد بما نسوا يوم الحساب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
O Dawud (David)! Verily! We have placed you as a successor on the earth; so judge you between men in truth (and justice) and follow not your desire - for it will mislead you from the Path of Allah. Verily, those who wander astray from the Path of Allah (shall) have a severe torment, because they forgot the Day of Reckoning.
وما خلقنا السماء والأرض وما بينهما باطلا ۚ ذلك ظن الذين كفروا ۚ فويل للذين كفروا من النار
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them without purpose! That is the consideration of those who disbelieve! Then woe to those who disbelieve (in Islamic Monotheism) from the Fire!
أم نجعل الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات كالمفسدين في الأرض أم نجعل المتقين كالفجار
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Shall We treat those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds as Mufsidun (those who associate partners in worship with Allah and commit crimes) on earth? Or shall We treat the Muttaqun (the pious - See V.2:2) as the Fujjar (criminals, disbelievers, the wicked)?
كتاب أنزلناه إليك مبارك ليدبروا آياته وليتذكر أولو الألباب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
(This is) a Book (the Qur'an) which We have sent down to you, full of blessings, that they may ponder over its Verses, and that men of understanding may remember.
فقال إني أحببت حب الخير عن ذكر ربي حتى توارت بالحجاب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
He said: "I did love the good (these horses) instead of remembering my Lord (in my 'Asr prayer)" till the time was over, and (the sun) had hidden in the veil (of night).
And indeed, We did try Sulaiman (Solomon) and We placed on his throne Jasad (a devil, so he lost his kingdom for a while) and he did return (to Allah with obedience and in repentance, and to his throne and kingdom by the Grace of Allah).
And remember Our slave Ayyub (Job), when he invoked his Lord (saying): "Verily Shaitan (Satan) has touched me with distress (by ruining my health) and torment (by ruining my wealth)!
وخذ بيدك ضغثا فاضرب به ولا تحنث ۗ إنا وجدناه صابرا ۚ نعم العبد ۖ إنه أواب
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
"And take in your hand a bundle of thin grass and strike therewith (your wife), and break not your oath. Truly! We found him patient. How excellent a slave! Verily he was ever oft-returning in repentance (to Us)!
واذكر عبادنا إبراهيم وإسحاق ويعقوب أولي الأيدي والأبصار
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
And remember Our slaves, Ibrahim (Abraham), Ishaq (Isaac), and Ya'qub (Jacob), (all) owners of strength (in worshipping Us) and (also) of religious understanding.
Verily, We did choose them by granting them (a good thing, - i.e.) the remembrance of the Home [in the Hereafter and they used to make the people remember it, and also they used to invite the people to obey Allah and to do good deeds for the Hereafter].
And beside them will be Qasirat-at-Tarf [chaste females (wives) restraining their glances (desiring none except their husbands)], (and) of equal ages.
