[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, [who] made the angels messengers having wings, two or three or four. He increases in creation what He wills. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent.
Arabic
ما يفتح الله للناس من رحمة فلا ممسك لها ۖ وما يمسك فلا مرسل له من بعده ۚ وهو العزيز الحكيم
Whatever Allah grants to people of mercy - none can withhold it; and whatever He withholds - none can release it thereafter. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
Arabic
يا أيها الناس اذكروا نعمت الله عليكم ۚ هل من خالق غير الله يرزقكم من السماء والأرض ۚ لا إله إلا هو ۖ فأنى تؤفكون
O mankind, remember the favor of Allah upon you. Is there any creator other than Allah who provides for you from the heaven and earth? There is no deity except Him, so how are you deluded?
Arabic
وإن يكذبوك فقد كذبت رسل من قبلك ۚ وإلى الله ترجع الأمور
Then is one to whom the evil of his deed has been made attractive so he considers it good [like one rightly guided]? For indeed, Allah sends astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. So do not let yourself perish over them in regret. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of what they do.
Arabic
والله الذي أرسل الرياح فتثير سحابا فسقناه إلى بلد ميت فأحيينا به الأرض بعد موتها ۚ كذلك النشور
And it is Allah who sends the winds, and they stir the clouds, and We drive them to a dead land and give life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness. Thus is the resurrection.
Arabic
من كان يريد العزة فلله العزة جميعا ۚ إليه يصعد الكلم الطيب والعمل الصالح يرفعه ۚ والذين يمكرون السيئات لهم عذاب شديد ۖ ومكر أولئك هو يبور
Whoever desires honor [through power] - then to Allah belongs all honor. To Him ascends good speech, and righteous work raises it. But they who plot evil deeds will have a severe punishment, and the plotting of those - it will perish.
Arabic
والله خلقكم من تراب ثم من نطفة ثم جعلكم أزواجا ۚ وما تحمل من أنثى ولا تضع إلا بعلمه ۚ وما يعمر من معمر ولا ينقص من عمره إلا في كتاب ۚ إن ذلك على الله يسير
And Allah created you from dust, then from a sperm - drop; then He made you mates. And no female conceives nor does she give birth except with His knowledge. And no aged person is granted [additional] life nor is his lifespan lessened but that it is in a register. Indeed, that for Allah is easy.
Arabic
وما يستوي البحران هذا عذب فرات سائغ شرابه وهذا ملح أجاج ۖ ومن كل تأكلون لحما طريا وتستخرجون حلية تلبسونها ۖ وترى الفلك فيه مواخر لتبتغوا من فضله ولعلكم تشكرون
And not alike are the two bodies of water. One is fresh and sweet, palatable for drinking, and one is salty and bitter. And from each you eat tender meat and extract ornaments which you wear, and you see the ships plowing through [them] that you might seek of His bounty; and perhaps you will be grateful.
Arabic
يولج الليل في النهار ويولج النهار في الليل وسخر الشمس والقمر كل يجري لأجل مسمى ۚ ذلكم الله ربكم له الملك ۚ والذين تدعون من دونه ما يملكون من قطمير
He causes the night to enter the day, and He causes the day to enter the night and has subjected the sun and the moon - each running [its course] for a specified term. That is Allah, your Lord; to Him belongs sovereignty. And those whom you invoke other than Him do not possess [as much as] the membrane of a date seed.
Arabic
إن تدعوهم لا يسمعوا دعاءكم ولو سمعوا ما استجابوا لكم ۖ ويوم القيامة يكفرون بشرككم ۚ ولا ينبئك مثل خبير
If you invoke them, they do not hear your supplication; and if they heard, they would not respond to you. And on the Day of Resurrection they will deny your association. And none can inform you like [one] Acquainted [with all matters].
Arabic
۞ يا أيها الناس أنتم الفقراء إلى الله ۖ والله هو الغني الحميد
O mankind, you are those in need of Allah, while Allah is the Free of need, the Praiseworthy.
Arabic
إن يشأ يذهبكم ويأت بخلق جديد
Arabic, with marks
إِن يَشَأْ يُذْهِبْكُمْ وَيَأْتِ بِخَلْقٍ جَدِيدٍ
Saheeh International
If He wills, He can do away with you and bring forth a new creation.
Arabic
وما ذلك على الله بعزيز
Arabic, with marks
وَمَا ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزِيزٍ
Saheeh International
And that is for Allah not difficult.
Arabic
ولا تزر وازرة وزر أخرى ۚ وإن تدع مثقلة إلى حملها لا يحمل منه شيء ولو كان ذا قربى ۗ إنما تنذر الذين يخشون ربهم بالغيب وأقاموا الصلاة ۚ ومن تزكى فإنما يتزكى لنفسه ۚ وإلى الله المصير
And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. And if a heavily laden soul calls [another] to [carry some of] its load, nothing of it will be carried, even if he should be a close relative. You can only warn those who fear their Lord unseen and have established prayer. And whoever purifies himself only purifies himself for [the benefit of] his soul. And to Allah is the [final] destination.
Arabic
وما يستوي الأعمى والبصير

Saheeh International
Nor are the shade and the heat,
Arabic
وما يستوي الأحياء ولا الأموات ۚ إن الله يسمع من يشاء ۖ وما أنت بمسمع من في القبور
Indeed, We have sent you with the truth as a bringer of good tidings and a warner. And there was no nation but that there had passed within it a warner.
Arabic
وإن يكذبوك فقد كذب الذين من قبلهم جاءتهم رسلهم بالبينات وبالزبر وبالكتاب المنير
And if they deny you - then already have those before them denied. Their messengers came to them with clear proofs and written ordinances and with the enlightening Scripture.
Do you not see that Allah sends down rain from the sky, and We produce thereby fruits of varying colors? And in the mountains are tracts, white and red of varying shades and [some] extremely black.
Arabic
ومن الناس والدواب والأنعام مختلف ألوانه كذلك ۗ إنما يخشى الله من عباده العلماء ۗ إن الله عزيز غفور
And among people and moving creatures and grazing livestock are various colors similarly. Only those fear Allah, from among His servants, who have knowledge. Indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Forgiving.
Arabic
إن الذين يتلون كتاب الله وأقاموا الصلاة وأنفقوا مما رزقناهم سرا وعلانية يرجون تجارة لن تبور
Indeed, those who recite the Book of Allah and establish prayer and spend [in His cause] out of what We have provided them, secretly and publicly, [can] expect a profit that will never perish -
And that which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], of the Book is the truth, confirming what was before it. Indeed, Allah, of His servants, is Acquainted and Seeing.
Arabic
ثم أورثنا الكتاب الذين اصطفينا من عبادنا ۖ فمنهم ظالم لنفسه ومنهم مقتصد ومنهم سابق بالخيرات بإذن الله ۚ ذلك هو الفضل الكبير
Then we caused to inherit the Book those We have chosen of Our servants; and among them is he who wrongs himself, and among them is he who is moderate, and among them is he who is foremost in good deeds by permission of Allah. That [inheritance] is what is the great bounty.
Arabic
جنات عدن يدخلونها يحلون فيها من أساور من ذهب ولؤلؤا ۖ ولباسهم فيها حرير
[For them are] gardens of perpetual residence which they will enter. They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and pearls, and their garments therein will be silk.
Arabic
وقالوا الحمد لله الذي أذهب عنا الحزن ۖ إن ربنا لغفور شكور
He who has settled us in the home of duration out of His bounty. There touches us not in it any fatigue, and there touches us not in it weariness [of mind]."
Arabic
والذين كفروا لهم نار جهنم لا يقضى عليهم فيموتوا ولا يخفف عنهم من عذابها ۚ كذلك نجزي كل كفور
And for those who disbelieve will be the fire of Hell. [Death] is not decreed for them so they may die, nor will its torment be lightened for them. Thus do we recompense every ungrateful one.
Arabic
وهم يصطرخون فيها ربنا أخرجنا نعمل صالحا غير الذي كنا نعمل ۚ أولم نعمركم ما يتذكر فيه من تذكر وجاءكم النذير ۖ فذوقوا فما للظالمين من نصير
And they will cry out therein, "Our Lord, remove us; we will do righteousness - other than what we were doing!" But did We not grant you life enough for whoever would remember therein to remember, and the warner had come to you? So taste [the punishment], for there is not for the wrongdoers any helper.
Arabic
إن الله عالم غيب السماوات والأرض ۚ إنه عليم بذات الصدور
It is He who has made you successors upon the earth. And whoever disbelieves - upon him will be [the consequence of] his disbelief. And the disbelief of the disbelievers does not increase them in the sight of their Lord except in hatred; and the disbelief of the disbelievers does not increase them except in loss.
Arabic
قل أرأيتم شركاءكم الذين تدعون من دون الله أروني ماذا خلقوا من الأرض أم لهم شرك في السماوات أم آتيناهم كتابا فهم على بينت منه ۚ بل إن يعد الظالمون بعضهم بعضا إلا غرورا
Say, "Have you considered your 'partners' whom you invoke besides Allah? Show me what they have created from the earth, or have they partnership [with Him] in the heavens? Or have We given them a book so they are [standing] on evidence therefrom? [No], rather, the wrongdoers do not promise each other except delusion."
Arabic
۞ إن الله يمسك السماوات والأرض أن تزولا ۚ ولئن زالتا إن أمسكهما من أحد من بعده ۚ إنه كان حليما غفورا
Indeed, Allah holds the heavens and the earth, lest they cease. And if they should cease, no one could hold them [in place] after Him. Indeed, He is Forbearing and Forgiving.
Arabic
وأقسموا بالله جهد أيمانهم لئن جاءهم نذير ليكونن أهدى من إحدى الأمم ۖ فلما جاءهم نذير ما زادهم إلا نفورا
And they swore by Allah their strongest oaths that if a warner came to them, they would be more guided than [any] one of the [previous] nations. But when a warner came to them, it did not increase them except in aversion.
Arabic
استكبارا في الأرض ومكر السيئ ۚ ولا يحيق المكر السيئ إلا بأهله ۚ فهل ينظرون إلا سنت الأولين ۚ فلن تجد لسنت الله تبديلا ۖ ولن تجد لسنت الله تحويلا
[Due to] arrogance in the land and plotting of evil; but the evil plot does not encompass except its own people. Then do they await except the way of the former peoples? But you will never find in the way of Allah any change, and you will never find in the way of Allah any alteration.
Arabic
أولم يسيروا في الأرض فينظروا كيف كان عاقبة الذين من قبلهم وكانوا أشد منهم قوة ۚ وما كان الله ليعجزه من شيء في السماوات ولا في الأرض ۚ إنه كان عليما قديرا
Have they not traveled through the land and observed how was the end of those before them? And they were greater than them in power. But Allah is not to be caused failure by anything in the heavens or on the earth. Indeed, He is ever Knowing and Competent.
Arabic
ولو يؤاخذ الله الناس بما كسبوا ما ترك على ظهرها من دابة ولكن يؤخرهم إلى أجل مسمى ۖ فإذا جاء أجلهم فإن الله كان بعباده بصيرا
And if Allah were to impose blame on the people for what they have earned, He would not leave upon the earth any creature. But He defers them for a specified term. And when their time comes, then indeed Allah has ever been, of His servants, Seeing.
