In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Praise be to Allah, unto Whom belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. His is the praise in the Hereafter, and He is the Wise, the Aware.
Arabic
يعلم ما يلج في الأرض وما يخرج منها وما ينزل من السماء وما يعرج فيها ۚ وهو الرحيم الغفور
He knoweth that which goeth into the earth and that which cometh forth from it, and that descendeth from the heaven and that which ascendeth into it. He is the Merciful, the Forgiving.
Arabic
وقال الذين كفروا لا تأتينا الساعة ۖ قل بلى وربي لتأتينكم عالم الغيب ۖ لا يعزب عنه مثقال ذرة في السماوات ولا في الأرض ولا أصغر من ذلك ولا أكبر إلا في كتاب مبين
Those who disbelieve say: The Hour will never come unto us. Say: Nay, by my Lord, but it is coming unto you surely. (He is) the Knower of the Unseen. Not an atom's weight, or less than that or greater, escapeth Him in the heavens or in the earth, but it is in a clear Record,
Arabic
ليجزي الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات ۚ أولئك لهم مغفرة ورزق كريم
Those who have been given knowledge see that what is revealed unto thee from thy Lord is the truth and leadeth unto the path of the Mighty, the Owner of Praise.
Arabic
وقال الذين كفروا هل ندلكم على رجل ينبئكم إذا مزقتم كل ممزق إنكم لفي خلق جديد
Those who disbelieve say: Shall we show you a man who will tell you (that) when ye have become dispersed in dust with most complete dispersal still, even then, ye will be created anew ?
Arabic
أفترى على الله كذبا أم به جنة ۗ بل الذين لا يؤمنون بالآخرة في العذاب والضلال البعيد
Have they not observed what is before them and what is behind them of the sky and the earth ? If We will, We can make the earth swallow them, or cause obliteration from the sky to fall on them. Lo! herein surely is a portent for every slave who turneth (to Allah) repentant.
Arabic
۞ ولقد آتينا داوود منا فضلا ۖ يا جبال أوبي معه والطير ۖ وألنا له الحديد
And unto Solomon (We gave) the wind, whereof the morning course was a month's journey and the evening course a month's journey, and We caused the fount of copper to gush forth for him, and (We gave him) certain of the jinn who worked before him by permission of his Lord. And such of them as deviated from Our command, them We caused to taste the punishment of flaming Fire.
Arabic
يعملون له ما يشاء من محاريب وتماثيل وجفان كالجواب وقدور راسيات ۚ اعملوا آل داوود شكرا ۚ وقليل من عبادي الشكور
They made for him what he willed: synagogues and statues, basins like wells and boilers built into the ground. Give thanks, O House of David! Few of My bondmen are thankful.
Arabic
فلما قضينا عليه الموت ما دلهم على موته إلا دابة الأرض تأكل منسأته ۖ فلما خر تبينت الجن أن لو كانوا يعلمون الغيب ما لبثوا في العذاب المهين
And when We decreed death for him, nothing showed his death to them save a creeping creature of the earth which gnawed away his staff. And when he fell the jinn saw clearly how, if they had known the Unseen, they would not have continued in despised toil.
Arabic
لقد كان لسبإ في مسكنهم آية ۖ جنتان عن يمين وشمال ۖ كلوا من رزق ربكم واشكروا له ۚ بلدة طيبة ورب غفور
There was indeed a sign for Sheba in their dwelling - place: Two gardens on the right hand and the left (as who should say): Eat of the provision of your Lord and render thanks to Him. A fair land and an indulgent Lord!
Arabic
فأعرضوا فأرسلنا عليهم سيل العرم وبدلناهم بجنتيهم جنتين ذواتي أكل خمط وأثل وشيء من سدر قليل
But they were froward, so We sent on them the flood of 'Iram, and in exchange for their two gardens gave them two gardens bearing bitter fruit, the tamarisk and here and there a lote - tree.
And We set, between them and the towns which We had blessed, towns easy to be seen, and We made the stage between them easy, (saying): Travel in them safely both by night and day.
Arabic
فقالوا ربنا باعد بين أسفارنا وظلموا أنفسهم فجعلناهم أحاديث ومزقناهم كل ممزق ۚ إن في ذلك لآيات لكل صبار شكور
But they said: Our Lord! Make the stage between our journeys longer. And they wronged themselves, therefore We made them bywords (in the land) and scattered them abroad, a total scattering. Lo! herein verily are portents for each steadfast, grateful (heart).
Arabic
ولقد صدق عليهم إبليس ظنه فاتبعوه إلا فريقا من المؤمنين
And he had no warrant whatsoever against them, save that We would know him who believeth in the Hereafter from him who is in doubt thereof; and thy Lord (O Muhammad) taketh note of all things.
Arabic
قل ادعوا الذين زعمتم من دون الله ۖ لا يملكون مثقال ذرة في السماوات ولا في الأرض وما لهم فيهما من شرك وما له منهم من ظهير
Say (O Muhammad): Call upon those whom ye set up beside Allah! They possess not an atom's weight either in the heavens or in the earth, nor have they any share in either, nor hath He an auxiliary among them.
Arabic
ولا تنفع الشفاعة عنده إلا لمن أذن له ۚ حتى إذا فزع عن قلوبهم قالوا ماذا قال ربكم ۖ قالوا الحق ۖ وهو العلي الكبير
No intercession availeth with Him save for him whom He permitteth. Yet, when fear is banished from their hearts, they say: What was it that your Lord said ? They say: The Truth. And He is the Sublime, the Great.
Arabic
۞ قل من يرزقكم من السماوات والأرض ۖ قل الله ۖ وإنا أو إياكم لعلى هدى أو في ضلال مبين
Say (O Muhammad): Yours is the promise of a Day which ye cannot postpone nor hasten by an hour.
Arabic
وقال الذين كفروا لن نؤمن بهذا القرآن ولا بالذي بين يديه ۗ ولو ترى إذ الظالمون موقوفون عند ربهم يرجع بعضهم إلى بعض القول يقول الذين استضعفوا للذين استكبروا لولا أنتم لكنا مؤمنين
And those who disbelieve say: We believe not in this Qur'an nor in that which was before it; but oh, if thou couldst see, when the wrong - doers are brought up before their Lord, how they cast the blame one to another; how those who were despised (in the earth) say unto those who were proud: But for you, we should have been believers.
Arabic
قال الذين استكبروا للذين استضعفوا أنحن صددناكم عن الهدى بعد إذ جاءكم ۖ بل كنتم مجرمين
Those who were proud say unto those who were despised: Did we drive you away from the guidance after it had come unto you ? Nay, but ye were guilty.
Arabic
وقال الذين استضعفوا للذين استكبروا بل مكر الليل والنهار إذ تأمروننا أن نكفر بالله ونجعل له أندادا ۚ وأسروا الندامة لما رأوا العذاب وجعلنا الأغلال في أعناق الذين كفروا ۚ هل يجزون إلا ما كانوا يعملون
Those who were despised say unto those who were proud: Nay but (it was your) scheming night and day, when ye commanded us to disbelieve in Allah and set up rivals unto Him. And they are filled with remorse when they behold the doom; and We place carcans on the necks of those who disbelieved. Are they requited aught save what they used to do ?
Arabic
وما أرسلنا في قرية من نذير إلا قال مترفوها إنا بما أرسلتم به كافرون
And it is not your wealth nor your children that will bring you near unto Us, but he who believeth and doeth good (he draweth near). As for such, theirs will be twofold reward for what they did and they will dwell secure in lofty halls.
Arabic
والذين يسعون في آياتنا معاجزين أولئك في العذاب محضرون
Say: Lo! my Lord enlargeth the provision for whom He will of His bondmen, and narroweth (it) for him. And whatsoever ye spend (for good) He replaceth it. And He is the Best of Providers.
Arabic
ويوم يحشرهم جميعا ثم يقول للملائكة أهؤلاء إياكم كانوا يعبدون
That day ye will possess no use nor hurt one for another. And We shall say unto those who did wrong: Taste the doom of the Fire which ye used to deny.
Arabic
وإذا تتلى عليهم آياتنا بينات قالوا ما هذا إلا رجل يريد أن يصدكم عما كان يعبد آباؤكم وقالوا ما هذا إلا إفك مفترى ۚ وقال الذين كفروا للحق لما جاءهم إن هذا إلا سحر مبين
And if Our revelations are recited unto them in plain terms, they say: This is naught else than a man who would turn you away from what your fathers used to worship; and they say: This is naught else than an invented lie. Those who disbelieve say of the truth when it reacheth them: This is naught else than mere magic.
Arabic
وما آتيناهم من كتب يدرسونها ۖ وما أرسلنا إليهم قبلك من نذير
Those before them denied, and these have not attained a tithe of that which We bestowed on them (of old); yet they denied My messengers. How intense then was My abhorrence (of them)!
Arabic
۞ قل إنما أعظكم بواحدة ۖ أن تقوموا لله مثنى وفرادى ثم تتفكروا ۚ ما بصاحبكم من جنة ۚ إن هو إلا نذير لكم بين يدي عذاب شديد
Say (unto them, O Muhammad): I exhort you unto one thing only: that ye awake, for Allah's sake, by twos and singly, and then reflect: There is no madness in your comrade. He is naught else than a warner unto you in face of a terrific doom.
Arabic
قل ما سألتكم من أجر فهو لكم ۖ إن أجري إلا على الله ۖ وهو على كل شيء شهيد
Say: If I err, I err only to my own loss, and if I am rightly guided it is because of that which my Lord hath revealed unto me. Lo! He is Hearer, Nigh.
