الحجر

1 Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur'an.

1 Aliflamra tilka ayatu alkitabi waquranin mubeenin

2 Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims.

2 Rubama yawaddu allatheena kafaroo law kanoo muslimeena

3 Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know.

3 Tharhum yakuloo wayatamattaAAoo wayulhihimu alamalu fasawfa yaAAlamoona

4 And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree.

4 Wama ahlakna min qaryatin illa walaha kitabun maAAloomun

5 No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter.

5 Ma tasbiqu min ommatin ajalaha wama yastakhiroona

6 And they say, "O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad.

6 Waqaloo ya ayyuha allathee nuzzila AAalayhi alththikru innaka lamajnoonun

7 Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful?"

7 Law ma tateena bialmalaikati in kunta mina alssadiqeena

8 We do not send down the angels except with truth; and the disbelievers would not then be reprieved.

8 Ma nunazzilu almalaikata illa bialhaqqi wama kanoo ithan munthareena

9 Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian.

9 Inna nahnu nazzalna alththikra wainna lahu lahafithoona

10 And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muhammad], among the sects of the former peoples.

10 Walaqad arsalna min qablika fee shiyaAAi alawwaleena

11 And no messenger would come to them except that they ridiculed him.

11 Wama yateehim min rasoolin illa kanoo bihi yastahzioona

12 Thus do We insert denial into the hearts of the criminals.

12 Kathalika naslukuhu fee quloobi almujrimeena

13 They will not believe in it, while there has already occurred the precedent of the former peoples.

13 La yuminoona bihi waqad khalat sunnatu alawwaleena

14 And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend,

14 Walaw fatahna AAalayhim baban mina alssamai fathalloo feehi yaAArujoona

15 They would say, "Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic."

15 Laqaloo innama sukkirat absaruna bal nahnu qawmun mashooroona

16 And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers.

16 Walaqad jaAAalna fee alssamai buroojan wazayyannaha lilnnathireena

17 And We have protected it from every devil expelled [from the mercy of Allah]

17 Wahafithnaha min kulli shaytanin rajeemin

18 Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame.

18 Illa mani istaraqa alssamAAa faatbaAAahu shihabun mubeenun

19 And the earth - We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well - balanced thing.

19 Waalarda madadnaha waalqayna feeha rawasiya waanbatna feeha min kulli shayin mawzoonin

20 And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers.

20 WajaAAalna lakum feeha maAAayisha waman lastum lahu biraziqeena

21 And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure.

21 Wain min shayin illa AAindana khazainuhu wama nunazziluhu illa biqadarin maAAloomin

22 And We have sent the fertilizing winds and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers.

22 Waarsalna alrriyaha lawaqiha faanzalna mina alssamai maan faasqaynakumoohu wama antum lahu bikhazineena

23 And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor.

23 Wainna lanahnu nuhyee wanumeetu wanahnu alwarithoona

24 And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come].

24 Walaqad AAalimna almustaqdimeena minkum walaqad AAalimna almustakhireena

25 And indeed, your Lord will gather them; indeed, He is Wise and Knowing.

25 Wainna rabbaka huwa yahshuruhum innahu hakeemun AAaleemun

26 And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.

26 Walaqad khalaqna alinsana min salsalin min hamain masnoonin

27 And the jinn We created before from scorching fire.

27 Waaljanna khalaqnahu min qablu min nari alssamoomi

28 And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud.

28 Waith qala rabbuka lilmalaikati innee khaliqun basharan min salsalin min hamain masnoonin

29 And when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration."

29 Faitha sawwaytuhu wanafakhtu feehi min roohee faqaAAoo lahu sajideena

30 So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely,

30 Fasajada almalaikatu kulluhum ajmaAAoona

31 Except Iblees, he refused to be with those who prostrated.

31 Illa ibleesa aba an yakoona maAAa alssajideena

32 [Allah] said, O Iblees, what is [the matter] with you that you are not with those who prostrate?"

32 Qala ya ibleesu ma laka alla takoona maAAa alssajideena

33 He said, "Never would I prostrate to a human whom You created out of clay from an altered black mud."

33 Qala lam akun liasjuda libasharin khalaqtahu min salsalin min hamain masnoonin

34 [Allah] said, "Then get out of it, for indeed, you are expelled.

34 Qala faokhruj minha fainnaka rajeemun

35 And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Recompense."

35 Wainna AAalayka allaAAnata ila yawmi alddeeni

36 He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."

36 Qala rabbi faanthirnee ila yawmi yubAAathoona

37 [Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved

37 Qala fainnaka mina almunthareena

38 Until the Day of the time well - known."

38 Ila yawmi alwaqti almaAAloomi

39 [Iblees] said, "My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all

39 Qala rabbi bima aghwaytanee laozayyinanna lahum fee alardi walaoghwiyannahum ajmaAAeena

40 Except, among them, Your chosen servants."

40 Illa AAibadaka minhumu almukhlaseena

41 [Allah] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight.

41 Qala hatha siratun AAalayya mustaqeemun

42 Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators.

42 Inna AAibadee laysa laka AAalayhim sultanun illa mani ittabaAAaka mina alghaweena

43 And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all.

43 Wainna jahannama lamawAAiduhum ajmaAAeena

44 It has seven gates; for every gate is of them a portion designated."

44 Laha sabAAatu abwabin likulli babin minhum juzon maqsoomun

45 Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs.

45 Inna almuttaqeena fee jannatin waAAuyoonin

46 [Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]."

46 Odkhulooha bisalamin amineena

47 And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other.

47 WanazaAAna ma fee sudoorihim min ghillin ikhwanan AAala sururin mutaqabileena

48 No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.

48 La yamassuhum feeha nasabun wama hum minha bimukhrajeena

49 [O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful.

49 Nabbi AAibadee annee ana alghafooru alrraheemu

50 And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment.

50 Wa anna AAathabee huwa alAAathabu alaleemu

51 And inform them about the guests of Abraham,

51 Wanabbihum AAan dayfi ibraheema

52 When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful of you."

52 Ith dakhaloo AAalayhi faqaloo salaman qala inna minkum wajiloona

53 [The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy."

53 Qaloo la tawjal inna nubashshiruka bighulamin AAaleemin

54 He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform?"

54 Qala abashshartumoonee AAala an massaniya alkibaru fabima tubashshirooni

55 They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing."

55 Qaloo bashsharnaka bialhaqqi fala takun mina alqaniteena

56 He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray?"

56 Qala waman yaqnatu min rahmati rabbihi illa alddalloona

57 [Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"

57 Qala fama khatbukum ayyuha almursaloona

58 They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals,

58 Qaloo inna orsilna ila qawmin mujrimeena

59 Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all

59 Illa ala lootin inna lamunajjoohum ajmaAAeena

60 Except his wife." Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind.

60 Illa imraatahu qaddarna innaha lamina alghabireena

61 And when the messengers came to the family of Lot,

61 Falamma jaa ala lootin almursaloona

62 He said, "Indeed, you are people unknown."

62 Qala innakum qawmun munkaroona

63 They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing,

63 Qaloo bal jinaka bima kanoo feehi yamtaroona

64 And we have come to you with truth, and indeed, we are truthful.

64 Waataynaka bialhaqqi wainna lasadiqoona

65 So set out with your family during a portion of the night and follow behind them and let not anyone among you look back and continue on to where you are commanded."

65 Faasri biahlika biqitAAin mina allayli waittabiAA adbarahum wala yaltafit minkum ahadun waimdoo haythu tumaroona

66 And We conveyed to him [the decree] of that matter: that those [sinners] would be eliminated by early morning.

66 Waqadayna ilayhi thalika alamra anna dabira haolai maqtooAAun musbiheena

67 And the people of the city came rejoicing.

67 Wajaa ahlu almadeenati yastabshiroona

68 [Lot] said, "Indeed, these are my guests, so do not shame me.

68 Qala inna haolai dayfee fala tafdahooni

69 And fear Allah and do not disgrace me."

69 Waittaqoo Allaha wala tukhzooni

70 They said, "Have we not forbidden you from [protecting] people?"

70 Qaloo awalam nanhaka AAani alAAalameena

71 [Lot] said, "These are my daughters - if you would be doers [of lawful marriage]."

71 Qala haolai banatee in kuntum faAAileena

72 By your life, [O Muhammad], indeed they were, in their intoxication, wandering blindly.

72 LaAAamruka innahum lafee sakratihim yaAAmahoona

73 So the shriek seized them at sunrise.

73 Faakhathathumu alssayhatu mushriqeena

74 And We made the highest part [of the city] its lowest and rained upon them stones of hard clay.

74 FajaAAalna AAaliyaha safilaha waamtarna AAalayhim hijaratan min sijjeelin

75 Indeed in that are signs for those who discern.

75 Inna fee thalika laayatin lilmutawassimeena

76 And indeed, those cities are [situated] on an established road.

76 Wainnaha labisabeelin muqeemin

77 Indeed in that is a sign for the believers.

77 Inna fee thalika laayatan lilmumineena

78 And the companions of the thicket were [also] wrongdoers.

78 Wain kana ashabu alaykati lathalimeena

79 So We took retribution from them, and indeed, both [cities] are on a clear highway.

79 Faintaqamna minhum wainnahuma labiimamin mubeenin

80 And certainly did the companions of Thamud deny the messengers.

80 Walaqad kaththaba ashabu alhijri almursaleena

81 And We gave them Our signs, but from them they were turning away.

81 Waataynahum ayatina fakanoo AAanha muAArideena

82 And they used to carve from the mountains, houses, feeling secure.

82 Wakanoo yanhitoona mina aljibali buyootan amineena

83 But the shriek seized them at early morning.

83 Faakhathathumu alssayhatu musbiheena

84 So nothing availed them [from] what they used to earn.

84 Fama aghna AAanhum ma kanoo yaksiboona

85 And We have not created the heavens and earth and that between them except in truth. And indeed, the Hour is coming; so forgive with gracious forgiveness.

85 Wama khalaqna alssamawati waalarda wama baynahuma illa bialhaqqi wainna alssaAAata laatiyatun faisfahi alssafha aljameela

86 Indeed, your Lord - He is the Knowing Creator.

86 Inna rabbaka huwa alkhallaqu alAAaleemu

87 And We have certainly given you, [O Muhammad], seven of the often repeated [verses] and the great Qur'an.

87 Walaqad ataynaka sabAAan mina almathanee waalqurana alAAatheema

88 Do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [certain] categories of the disbelievers, and do not grieve over them. And lower your wing to the believers

88 La tamuddanna AAaynayka ila ma mattaAAna bihi azwajan minhum wala tahzan AAalayhim waikhfid janahaka lilmumineena

89 And say, "Indeed, I am the clear warner" -

89 Waqul innee ana alnnatheeru almubeenu

90 Just as We had revealed [scriptures] to the separators

90 Kama anzalna AAala almuqtasimeena

91 Who have made the Qur'an into portions.

91 Allatheena jaAAaloo alqurana AAideena

92 So by your Lord, We will surely question them all

92 Fawarabbika lanasalannahum ajmaAAeena

93 About what they used to do.

93 AAamma kanoo yaAAmaloona

94 Then declare what you are commanded and turn away from the polytheists.

94 FaisdaAA bima tumaru waaAArid AAani almushrikeena

95 Indeed, We are sufficient for you against the mockers

95 Inna kafaynaka almustahzieena

96 Who make [equal] with Allah another deity. But they are going to know.

96 Allatheena yajAAaloona maAAa Allahi ilahan akhara fasawfa yaAAlamoona

97 And We already know that your breast is constrained by what they say.

97 Walaqad naAAlamu annaka yadeequ sadruka bima yaqooloona

98 So exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord and be of those who prostrate [to Him].

98 Fasabbih bihamdi rabbika wakun mina alssajideena

99 And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (death).

99 WaoAAbud rabbaka hatta yatiyaka alyaqeenu
