Chapter 25, 77 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم تبارك الذي نزل الفرقان على عبده ليكون للعالمين نذيرا
Blessed is He who sent down the Criterion upon His Servant that he may be to the worlds a warner -
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Blessed is He Who hath revealed unto His slave the Criterion (of right and wrong), that he may be a warner to the peoples.
تَبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِى نَزَّلَ ٱلْفُرْقَانَ عَلَىٰ عَبْدِهِۦ لِيَكُونَ لِلْعَٰلَمِينَ نَذِيرًا
الذي له ملك السماوات والأرض ولم يتخذ ولدا ولم يكن له شريك في الملك وخلق كل شيء فقدره تقديرا
He to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and who has not taken a son and has not had a partner in dominion and has created each thing and determined it with [precise] determination.
He unto Whom belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, He hath chosen no son nor hath He any partner in the Sovereignty. He hath created everything and hath meted out for it a measure.
ٱلَّذِى لَهُۥ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَدًا وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُۥ شَرِيكٌ فِى ٱلْمُلْكِ وَخَلَقَ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ تَقْدِيرًا
واتخذوا من دونه آلهة لا يخلقون شيئا وهم يخلقون ولا يملكون لأنفسهم ضرا ولا نفعا ولا يملكون موتا ولا حياة ولا نشورا
But they have taken besides Him gods which create nothing, while they are created, and possess not for themselves any harm or benefit and possess not [power to cause] death or life or resurrection.
Yet they choose beside Him other gods who create naught but are themselves created, and possess not hurt nor profit for themselves, and possess not death nor life, nor power to raise the dead.
وَٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةً لَّا يَخْلُقُونَ شَيْـًٔا وَهُمْ يُخْلَقُونَ وَلَا يَمْلِكُونَ لِأَنفُسِهِمْ ضَرًّا وَلَا نَفْعًا وَلَا يَمْلِكُونَ مَوْتًا وَلَا حَيَوٰةً وَلَا نُشُورًا
وقال الذين كفروا إن هذا إلا إفك افتراه وأعانه عليه قوم آخرون ۖ فقد جاءوا ظلما وزورا
And those who disbelieve say, "This [Qur'an] is not except a falsehood he invented, and another people assisted him in it." But they have committed an injustice and a lie.
Those who disbelieve say: This is naught but a lie that he hath invented, and other folk have helped him with it, so that they have produced a slander and a lie.
وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ إِفْكٌ ٱفْتَرَىٰهُ وَأَعَانَهُۥ عَلَيْهِ قَوْمٌ ءَاخَرُونَ فَقَدْ جَآءُو ظُلْمًا وَزُورًا
وقالوا أساطير الأولين اكتتبها فهي تملى عليه بكرة وأصيلا
And they say, "Legends of the former peoples which he has written down, and they are dictated to him morning and afternoon."
And they say: Fables of the men of old which he hath had written down so that they are dictated to him morn and evening.
وَقَالُوٓا۟ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ٱكْتَتَبَهَا فَهِىَ تُمْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلًا
قل أنزله الذي يعلم السر في السماوات والأرض ۚ إنه كان غفورا رحيما
Say, [O Muhammad], "It has been revealed by He who knows [every] secret within the heavens and the earth. Indeed, He is ever Forgiving and Merciful."
Say (unto them, O Muhammad): He who knoweth the secret of the heavens and the earth hath revealed it. Lo! He ever is Forgiving, Merciful.
قُلْ أَنزَلَهُ ٱلَّذِى يَعْلَمُ ٱلسِّرَّ فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا
وقالوا مال هذا الرسول يأكل الطعام ويمشي في الأسواق ۙ لولا أنزل إليه ملك فيكون معه نذيرا
And they say, "What is this messenger that eats food and walks in the markets? Why was there not sent down to him an angel so he would be with him a warner?
And they say: What aileth this messenger (of Allah) that he eateth food and walketh in the markets ? Why is not an angel sent down unto him, to be a warner with him.
وَقَالُوا۟ مَالِ هَٰذَا ٱلرَّسُولِ يَأْكُلُ ٱلطَّعَامَ وَيَمْشِى فِى ٱلْأَسْوَاقِ لَوْلَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مَلَكٌ فَيَكُونَ مَعَهُۥ نَذِيرًا
أو يلقى إليه كنز أو تكون له جنة يأكل منها ۚ وقال الظالمون إن تتبعون إلا رجلا مسحورا
Or [why is not] a treasure presented to him [from heaven], or does he [not] have a garden from which he eats?" And the wrongdoers say, "You follow not but a man affected by magic."
Or (why is not) treasure thrown down unto him, or why hath he not a paradise from whence to eat ? And the evil - doers say: Ye are but following a man bewitched.
أَوْ يُلْقَىٰٓ إِلَيْهِ كَنزٌ أَوْ تَكُونُ لَهُۥ جَنَّةٌ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ إِن تَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا رَجُلًا مَّسْحُورًا
انظر كيف ضربوا لك الأمثال فضلوا فلا يستطيعون سبيلا
Look how they strike for you comparisons; but they have strayed, so they cannot [find] a way.
See how they coin similitudes for thee, so that they are all astray and cannot find a road!
ٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ ضَرَبُوا۟ لَكَ ٱلْأَمْثَٰلَ فَضَلُّوا۟ فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ سَبِيلًا
تبارك الذي إن شاء جعل لك خيرا من ذلك جنات تجري من تحتها الأنهار ويجعل لك قصورا
Blessed is He who, if He willed, could have made for you [something] better than that - gardens beneath which rivers flow - and could make for you palaces.
Blessed is He Who, if He will, will assign thee better than (all) that - Gardens underneath which rivers flow - and will assign thee mansions.
تَبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِىٓ إِن شَآءَ جَعَلَ لَكَ خَيْرًا مِّن ذَٰلِكَ جَنَّٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ وَيَجْعَل لَّكَ قُصُورًۢا
بل كذبوا بالساعة ۖ وأعتدنا لمن كذب بالساعة سعيرا
But they have denied the Hour, and We have prepared for those who deny the Hour a Blaze.
Nay, but they deny (the coming of) the Hour, and for those who deny (the coming of) the Hour We have prepared a flame.
بَلْ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِٱلسَّاعَةِ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لِمَن كَذَّبَ بِٱلسَّاعَةِ سَعِيرًا
إذا رأتهم من مكان بعيد سمعوا لها تغيظا وزفيرا
When the Hellfire sees them from a distant place, they will hear its fury and roaring.
When it seeth them from afar, they hear the crackling and the roar thereof.
إِذَا رَأَتْهُم مِّن مَّكَانٍۭ بَعِيدٍ سَمِعُوا۟ لَهَا تَغَيُّظًا وَزَفِيرًا
وإذا ألقوا منها مكانا ضيقا مقرنين دعوا هنالك ثبورا
And when they are thrown into a narrow place therein bound in chains, they will cry out thereupon for destruction.
And when they are flung into a narrow place thereof, chained together, they pray for destruction there.
وَإِذَآ أُلْقُوا۟ مِنْهَا مَكَانًا ضَيِّقًا مُّقَرَّنِينَ دَعَوْا۟ هُنَالِكَ ثُبُورًا
لا تدعوا اليوم ثبورا واحدا وادعوا ثبورا كثيرا
[They will be told], "Do not cry this Day for one destruction but cry for much destruction."
Pray not that day for one destruction, but pray for many destructions!
لَّا تَدْعُوا۟ ٱلْيَوْمَ ثُبُورًا وَٰحِدًا وَٱدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا كَثِيرًا
قل أذلك خير أم جنة الخلد التي وعد المتقون ۚ كانت لهم جزاء ومصيرا
Say, "Is that better or the Garden of Eternity which is promised to the righteous? It will be for them a reward and destination.
Say: Is that (doom) better or the Garden of Immortality which is promised unto those who ward off (evil) ? It will be their reward and journey's end.
قُلْ أَذَٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ أَمْ جَنَّةُ ٱلْخُلْدِ ٱلَّتِى وُعِدَ ٱلْمُتَّقُونَ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَزَآءً وَمَصِيرًا
لهم فيها ما يشاءون خالدين ۚ كان على ربك وعدا مسئولا
For them therein is whatever they wish, [while] abiding eternally. It is ever upon your Lord a promise [worthy to be] requested.
Therein abiding, they have all that they desire. It is for thy Lord a promise that must be fulfilled.
لَّهُمْ فِيهَا مَا يَشَآءُونَ خَٰلِدِينَ كَانَ عَلَىٰ رَبِّكَ وَعْدًا مَّسْـُٔولًا
ويوم يحشرهم وما يعبدون من دون الله فيقول أأنتم أضللتم عبادي هؤلاء أم هم ضلوا السبيل
And [mention] the Day He will gather them and that which they worship besides Allah and will say, "Did you mislead these, My servants, or did they [themselves] stray from the way?"
And on the day when He will assemble them and that which they worship instead of Allah and will say: Was it ye who misled these my slaves or did they (themselves) wander from the way ?
وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ وَمَا يَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَيَقُولُ ءَأَنتُمْ أَضْلَلْتُمْ عِبَادِى هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ أَمْ هُمْ ضَلُّوا۟ ٱلسَّبِيلَ
قالوا سبحانك ما كان ينبغي لنا أن نتخذ من دونك من أولياء ولكن متعتهم وآباءهم حتى نسوا الذكر وكانوا قوما بورا
They will say, "Exalted are You! It was not for us to take besides You any allies. But You provided comforts for them and their fathers until they forgot the message and became a people ruined."
They will say: Be Thou Glorified! it was not for us to choose any protecting friends beside thee; but Thou didst give them and their fathers ease till they forgot the warning and became lost folk.
قَالُوا۟ سُبْحَٰنَكَ مَا كَانَ يَنۢبَغِى لَنَآ أَن نَّتَّخِذَ مِن دُونِكَ مِنْ أَوْلِيَآءَ وَلَٰكِن مَّتَّعْتَهُمْ وَءَابَآءَهُمْ حَتَّىٰ نَسُوا۟ ٱلذِّكْرَ وَكَانُوا۟ قَوْمًۢا بُورًا
فقد كذبوكم بما تقولون فما تستطيعون صرفا ولا نصرا ۚ ومن يظلم منكم نذقه عذابا كبيرا
So they will deny you, [disbelievers], in what you say, and you cannot avert [punishment] or [find] help. And whoever commits injustice among you - We will make him taste a great punishment.
Thus they will give you the lie regarding what ye say, then ye can neither avert (the doom) nor obtain help. And whoso among you doeth wrong, We shall make him taste great torment.
فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوكُم بِمَا تَقُولُونَ فَمَا تَسْتَطِيعُونَ صَرْفًا وَلَا نَصْرًا وَمَن يَظْلِم مِّنكُمْ نُذِقْهُ عَذَابًا كَبِيرًا
وما أرسلنا قبلك من المرسلين إلا إنهم ليأكلون الطعام ويمشون في الأسواق ۗ وجعلنا بعضكم لبعض فتنة أتصبرون ۗ وكان ربك بصيرا
And We did not send before you, [O Muhammad], any of the messengers except that they ate food and walked in the markets. And We have made some of you [people] as trial for others - will you have patience? And ever is your Lord, Seeing.
We never sent before thee any messengers but lo! they verily ate food and walked in the markets. And We have appointed some of you a test for others: Will ye be steadfast ? And thy Lord is ever Seer.
وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ مِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ إِلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ لَيَأْكُلُونَ ٱلطَّعَامَ وَيَمْشُونَ فِى ٱلْأَسْوَاقِ وَجَعَلْنَا بَعْضَكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِتْنَةً أَتَصْبِرُونَ وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ بَصِيرًا
۞ وقال الذين لا يرجون لقاءنا لولا أنزل علينا الملائكة أو نرى ربنا ۗ لقد استكبروا في أنفسهم وعتوا عتوا كبيرا
And those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Why were not angels sent down to us, or [why] do we [not] see our Lord?" They have certainly become arrogant within themselves and [become] insolent with great insolence.
And those who look not for a meeting with Us say: Why are angels not sent down unto us and (Why) do we not see our Lord! Assuredly they think too highly of themselves and are scornful with great pride.
وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَرْجُونَ لِقَآءَنَا لَوْلَآ أُنزِلَ عَلَيْنَا ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ أَوْ نَرَىٰ رَبَّنَا لَقَدِ ٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ فِىٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ وَعَتَوْ عُتُوًّا كَبِيرًا
يوم يرون الملائكة لا بشرى يومئذ للمجرمين ويقولون حجرا محجورا
The day they see the angels - no good tidings will there be that day for the criminals, and [the angels] will say, "Prevented and inaccessible."
On the day when they behold the angels, on that day there will be no good tidings for the guilty; and they will cry: A forbidding ban!
يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ لَا بُشْرَىٰ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُجْرِمِينَ وَيَقُولُونَ حِجْرًا مَّحْجُورًا
وقدمنا إلى ما عملوا من عمل فجعلناه هباء منثورا
And We will regard what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed.
And We shall turn unto the work they did and make it scattered motes.
وَقَدِمْنَآ إِلَىٰ مَا عَمِلُوا۟ مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنَٰهُ هَبَآءً مَّنثُورًا
أصحاب الجنة يومئذ خير مستقرا وأحسن مقيلا
The companions of Paradise, that Day, are [in] a better settlement and better resting place.
Those who have earned the Garden on that day will be better in their home and happier in their place of noonday rest;
أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْجَنَّةِ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَيْرٌ مُّسْتَقَرًّا وَأَحْسَنُ مَقِيلًا
ويوم تشقق السماء بالغمام ونزل الملائكة تنزيلا
And [mention] the Day when the heaven will split open with [emerging] clouds, and the angels will be sent down in successive descent.
A day when the heaven with the clouds will be rent asunder and the angels will be sent down, a grand descent.
وَيَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِٱلْغَمَٰمِ وَنُزِّلَ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ تَنزِيلًا
الملك يومئذ الحق للرحمن ۚ وكان يوما على الكافرين عسيرا
True sovereignty, that Day, is for the Most Merciful. And it will be upon the disbelievers a difficult Day.
The Sovereignty on that day will be the True (Sovereignty) belonging to the Beneficent One, and it will be a hard day for disbelievers.
ٱلْمُلْكُ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْحَقُّ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ وَكَانَ يَوْمًا عَلَى ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ عَسِيرًا
ويوم يعض الظالم على يديه يقول يا ليتني اتخذت مع الرسول سبيلا
And the Day the wrongdoer will bite on his hands [in regret] he will say, "Oh, I wish I had taken with the Messenger a way.
On the day when the wrong - doer gnaweth his hands, he will say: Ah, would that I had chosen a way together with the messenger (of Allah)!
وَيَوْمَ يَعَضُّ ٱلظَّالِمُ عَلَىٰ يَدَيْهِ يَقُولُ يَٰلَيْتَنِى ٱتَّخَذْتُ مَعَ ٱلرَّسُولِ سَبِيلًا
يا ويلتى ليتني لم أتخذ فلانا خليلا
Oh, woe to me! I wish I had not taken that one as a friend.
Alas for me! Ah, would that I had never taken such an one for friend!
يَٰوَيْلَتَىٰ لَيْتَنِى لَمْ أَتَّخِذْ فُلَانًا خَلِيلًا
لقد أضلني عن الذكر بعد إذ جاءني ۗ وكان الشيطان للإنسان خذولا
He led me away from the remembrance after it had come to me. And ever is Satan, to man, a deserter."
He verily led me astray from the Reminder after it had reached me. Satan was ever man's deserter in the hour of need.
لَّقَدْ أَضَلَّنِى عَنِ ٱلذِّكْرِ بَعْدَ إِذْ جَآءَنِى وَكَانَ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ لِلْإِنسَٰنِ خَذُولًا
وقال الرسول يا رب إن قومي اتخذوا هذا القرآن مهجورا
And the Messenger has said, "O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur'an as [a thing] abandoned."
And the messenger saith: O my Lord! Lo! mine own folk make this Qur'an of no account.
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّسُولُ يَٰرَبِّ إِنَّ قَوْمِى ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ مَهْجُورًا
وكذلك جعلنا لكل نبي عدوا من المجرمين ۗ وكفى بربك هاديا ونصيرا
And thus have We made for every prophet an enemy from among the criminals. But sufficient is your Lord as a guide and a helper.
Even so have We appointed unto every prophet an opponent from among the guilty; but Allah sufficeth for a Guide and Helper.
وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِىٍّ عَدُوًّا مِّنَ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ وَكَفَىٰ بِرَبِّكَ هَادِيًا وَنَصِيرًا
وقال الذين كفروا لولا نزل عليه القرآن جملة واحدة ۚ كذلك لنثبت به فؤادك ۖ ورتلناه ترتيلا
And those who disbelieve say, "Why was the Qur'an not revealed to him all at once?" Thus [it is] that We may strengthen thereby your heart. And We have spaced it distinctly.
And those who disbelieve say: Why is the Qur'an not revealed unto him all at once ? (It is revealed) thus that We may strengthen thy heart therewith; and We have arranged it in right order.
وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَوْلَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ جُمْلَةً وَٰحِدَةً كَذَٰلِكَ لِنُثَبِّتَ بِهِۦ فُؤَادَكَ وَرَتَّلْنَٰهُ تَرْتِيلًا
ولا يأتونك بمثل إلا جئناك بالحق وأحسن تفسيرا
And they do not come to you with an argument except that We bring you the truth and the best explanation.
And they bring thee no similitude but We bring thee the Truth (as against it), and better (than their similitude) as argument.
وَلَا يَأْتُونَكَ بِمَثَلٍ إِلَّا جِئْنَٰكَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَأَحْسَنَ تَفْسِيرًا
الذين يحشرون على وجوههم إلى جهنم أولئك شر مكانا وأضل سبيلا
The ones who are gathered on their faces to Hell - those are the worst in position and farthest astray in [their] way.
Those who will be gathered on their faces unto hell: such are worse in plight and further from the right road.
ٱلَّذِينَ يُحْشَرُونَ عَلَىٰ وُجُوهِهِمْ إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا وَأَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا
ولقد آتينا موسى الكتاب وجعلنا معه أخاه هارون وزيرا
And We had certainly given Moses the Scripture and appointed with him his brother Aaron as an assistant.
We verily gave Moses the Scripture and placed with him his brother Aaron as henchman.
وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا مُوسَى ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَجَعَلْنَا مَعَهُۥٓ أَخَاهُ هَٰرُونَ وَزِيرًا
فقلنا اذهبا إلى القوم الذين كذبوا بآياتنا فدمرناهم تدميرا
And We said, "Go both of you to the people who have denied Our signs." Then We destroyed them with [complete] destruction.
Then We said: Go together unto the folk who have denied Our revelations. Then We destroyed them, a complete destruction.
فَقُلْنَا ٱذْهَبَآ إِلَى ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا فَدَمَّرْنَٰهُمْ تَدْمِيرًا
وقوم نوح لما كذبوا الرسل أغرقناهم وجعلناهم للناس آية ۖ وأعتدنا للظالمين عذابا أليما
And the people of Noah - when they denied the messengers, We drowned them, and We made them for mankind a sign. And We have prepared for the wrongdoers a painful punishment.
And Noah's folk, when they denied the messengers, We drowned them and made of them a portent for mankind. We have prepared a painful doom for evil - doers.
وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ لَّمَّا كَذَّبُوا۟ ٱلرُّسُلَ أَغْرَقْنَٰهُمْ وَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ لِلنَّاسِ ءَايَةً وَأَعْتَدْنَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا
وعادا وثمود وأصحاب الرس وقرونا بين ذلك كثيرا
And [We destroyed] 'Aad and Thamud and the companions of the well and many generations between them.
And (the tribes of) A'ad and Thamud, and the dwellers in Ar - Rass, and many generations in between.
وَعَادًا وَثَمُودَا۟ وَأَصْحَٰبَ ٱلرَّسِّ وَقُرُونًۢا بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ كَثِيرًا
وكلا ضربنا له الأمثال ۖ وكلا تبرنا تتبيرا
And for each We presented examples [as warnings], and each We destroyed with [total] destruction.
Each (of them) We warned by examples, and each (of them) We brought to utter ruin.
وَكُلًّا ضَرَبْنَا لَهُ ٱلْأَمْثَٰلَ وَكُلًّا تَبَّرْنَا تَتْبِيرًا
ولقد أتوا على القرية التي أمطرت مطر السوء ۚ أفلم يكونوا يرونها ۚ بل كانوا لا يرجون نشورا
And they have already come upon the town which was showered with a rain of evil. So have they not seen it? But they are not expecting resurrection.
And indeed they have passed by the township whereon was rained the fatal rain. Can it be that they have not seen it ? Nay, but they hope for no resurrection.
وَلَقَدْ أَتَوْا۟ عَلَى ٱلْقَرْيَةِ ٱلَّتِىٓ أُمْطِرَتْ مَطَرَ ٱلسَّوْءِ أَفَلَمْ يَكُونُوا۟ يَرَوْنَهَا بَلْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَرْجُونَ نُشُورًا
وإذا رأوك إن يتخذونك إلا هزوا أهذا الذي بعث الله رسولا
And when they see you, [O Muhammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one whom Allah has sent as a messenger?
And when they see thee (O Muhammad) they treat thee only as a jest (saying): Is this he whom Allah sendeth as a messenger ?
وَإِذَا رَأَوْكَ إِن يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلَّا هُزُوًا أَهَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى بَعَثَ ٱللَّهُ رَسُولًا
إن كاد ليضلنا عن آلهتنا لولا أن صبرنا عليها ۚ وسوف يعلمون حين يرون العذاب من أضل سبيلا
He almost would have misled us from our gods had we not been steadfast in [worship of] them." But they are going to know, when they see the punishment, who is farthest astray in [his] way.
He would have led us far away from our gods if we had not been staunch to them. They will know, when they behold the doom, who is more astray as to the road.
إِن كَادَ لَيُضِلُّنَا عَنْ ءَالِهَتِنَا لَوْلَآ أَن صَبَرْنَا عَلَيْهَا وَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ حِينَ يَرَوْنَ ٱلْعَذَابَ مَنْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا
أرأيت من اتخذ إلهه هواه أفأنت تكون عليه وكيلا
Have you seen the one who takes as his god his own desire? Then would you be responsible for him?
Hast thou seen him who chooseth for his god his own lust ? Wouldst thou then be guardian over him ?
أَرَءَيْتَ مَنِ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَٰهَهُۥ هَوَىٰهُ أَفَأَنتَ تَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ وَكِيلًا
أم تحسب أن أكثرهم يسمعون أو يعقلون ۚ إن هم إلا كالأنعام ۖ بل هم أضل سبيلا
Or do you think that most of them hear or reason? They are not except like livestock. Rather, they are [even] more astray in [their] way.
Or deemest thou that most of them hear or understand ? They are but as the cattle - nay, but they are farther astray ?
أَمْ تَحْسَبُ أَنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ يَسْمَعُونَ أَوْ يَعْقِلُونَ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا كَٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا
ألم تر إلى ربك كيف مد الظل ولو شاء لجعله ساكنا ثم جعلنا الشمس عليه دليلا
Have you not considered your Lord - how He extends the shadow, and if He willed, He could have made it stationary? Then We made the sun for it an indication.
Hast thou not seen how thy Lord hath spread the shade - And if He willed He could have made it still - then We have made the sun its pilot;
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَيْفَ مَدَّ ٱلظِّلَّ وَلَوْ شَآءَ لَجَعَلَهُۥ سَاكِنًا ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَا ٱلشَّمْسَ عَلَيْهِ دَلِيلًا
ثم قبضناه إلينا قبضا يسيرا
Then We hold it in hand for a brief grasp.
Then We withdraw it unto Us, a gradual withdrawal ?
ثُمَّ قَبَضْنَٰهُ إِلَيْنَا قَبْضًا يَسِيرًا
وهو الذي جعل لكم الليل لباسا والنوم سباتا وجعل النهار نشورا
And it is He who has made the night for you as clothing and sleep [a means for] rest and has made the day a resurrection.
And He it is Who maketh night a covering for you, and sleep repose, and maketh day a resurrection.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا وَٱلنَّوْمَ سُبَاتًا وَجَعَلَ ٱلنَّهَارَ نُشُورًا
وهو الذي أرسل الرياح بشرا بين يدي رحمته ۚ وأنزلنا من السماء ماء طهورا
And it is He who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy, and We send down from the sky pure water
And He it is Who sendeth the winds, glad tidings heralding His mercy, and We send down purifying water from the sky,
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَرْسَلَ ٱلرِّيَٰحَ بُشْرًۢا بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَحْمَتِهِۦ وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءً طَهُورًا
لنحيي به بلدة ميتا ونسقيه مما خلقنا أنعاما وأناسي كثيرا
That We may bring to life thereby a dead land and give it as drink to those We created of numerous livestock and men.
That We may give life thereby to a dead land, and We give many beasts and men that We have created to drink thereof.
لِّنُحْۦِىَ بِهِۦ بَلْدَةً مَّيْتًا وَنُسْقِيَهُۥ مِمَّا خَلَقْنَآ أَنْعَٰمًا وَأَنَاسِىَّ كَثِيرًا
ولقد صرفناه بينهم ليذكروا فأبى أكثر الناس إلا كفورا
And We have certainly distributed it among them that they might be reminded, but most of the people refuse except disbelief.
And verily We have repeated it among them that they may remember, but most of mankind begrudge aught save ingratitude.
وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَٰهُ بَيْنَهُمْ لِيَذَّكَّرُوا۟ فَأَبَىٰٓ أَكْثَرُ ٱلنَّاسِ إِلَّا كُفُورًا
ولو شئنا لبعثنا في كل قرية نذيرا
And if We had willed, We could have sent into every city a warner.
If We willed, We could raise up a warner in every village.
وَلَوْ شِئْنَا لَبَعَثْنَا فِى كُلِّ قَرْيَةٍ نَّذِيرًا
فلا تطع الكافرين وجاهدهم به جهادا كبيرا

فَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ وَجَٰهِدْهُم بِهِۦ جِهَادًا كَبِيرًا
۞ وهو الذي مرج البحرين هذا عذب فرات وهذا ملح أجاج وجعل بينهما برزخا وحجرا محجورا
And it is He who has released [simultaneously] the two seas, one fresh and sweet and one salty and bitter, and He placed between them a barrier and prohibiting partition.
And He it is Who hath given independence to the two seas (though they meet); one palatable, sweet, and the other saltish, bitter; and hath set a bar and a forbidding ban between them.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى مَرَجَ ٱلْبَحْرَيْنِ هَٰذَا عَذْبٌ فُرَاتٌ وَهَٰذَا مِلْحٌ أُجَاجٌ وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَهُمَا بَرْزَخًا وَحِجْرًا مَّحْجُورًا
وهو الذي خلق من الماء بشرا فجعله نسبا وصهرا ۗ وكان ربك قديرا

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ مِنَ ٱلْمَآءِ بَشَرًا فَجَعَلَهُۥ نَسَبًا وَصِهْرًا وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ قَدِيرًا
ويعبدون من دون الله ما لا ينفعهم ولا يضرهم ۗ وكان الكافر على ربه ظهيرا
But they worship rather than Allah that which does not benefit them or harm them, and the is ever, against his Lord, an assistant [to Satan].
Yet they worship instead of Allah that which can neither benefit them nor hurt them. The was ever a partisan against his Lord.
وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُهُمْ وَلَا يَضُرُّهُمْ وَكَانَ ٱلْكَافِرُ عَلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ ظَهِيرًا
وما أرسلناك إلا مبشرا ونذيرا
And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a bringer of good tidings and a warner.
And We have sent thee (O Muhammad) only as a bearer of good tidings and a warner.
وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَٰكَ إِلَّا مُبَشِّرًا وَنَذِيرًا
قل ما أسألكم عليه من أجر إلا من شاء أن يتخذ إلى ربه سبيلا
Say, "I do not ask of you for it any payment - only that whoever wills might take to his Lord a way."
Say: I ask of you no reward for this, save that whoso will may choose a way unto his Lord.
قُلْ مَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ إِلَّا مَن شَآءَ أَن يَتَّخِذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِيلًا
وتوكل على الحي الذي لا يموت وسبح بحمده ۚ وكفى به بذنوب عباده خبيرا

وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱلْحَىِّ ٱلَّذِى لَا يَمُوتُ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِهِۦ وَكَفَىٰ بِهِۦ بِذُنُوبِ عِبَادِهِۦ خَبِيرًا
الذي خلق السماوات والأرض وما بينهما في ستة أيام ثم استوى على العرش ۚ الرحمن فاسأل به خبيرا
He who created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six days and then established Himself above the Throne - the Most Merciful, so ask about Him one well .
Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six Days, then He mounted the Throne. The Beneficent! Ask anyone concerning Him!
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ ٱسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ فَسْـَٔلْ بِهِۦ خَبِيرًا
وإذا قيل لهم اسجدوا للرحمن قالوا وما الرحمن أنسجد لما تأمرنا وزادهم نفورا ۩
And when it is said to them, "Prostrate to the Most Merciful," they say, "And what is the Most Merciful? Should we prostrate to that which you order us?" And it increases them in aversion.
And when it is said unto them: Adore the Beneficent! they say: And what is the Beneficent ? Are we to adore whatever thou (Muhammad) biddest us ? And it increaseth aversion in them.
وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ قَالُوا۟ وَمَا ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ أَنَسْجُدُ لِمَا تَأْمُرُنَا وَزَادَهُمْ نُفُورًا
تبارك الذي جعل في السماء بروجا وجعل فيها سراجا وقمرا منيرا
Blessed is He who has placed in the sky great stars and placed therein a [burning] lamp and luminous moon.
Blessed be He Who hath placed in the heaven mansions of the stars, and hath placed therein a great lamp and a moon giving light!
تَبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ بُرُوجًا وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا سِرَٰجًا وَقَمَرًا مُّنِيرًا
وهو الذي جعل الليل والنهار خلفة لمن أراد أن يذكر أو أراد شكورا
And it is He who has made the night and the day in succession for whoever desires to remember or desires gratitude.
And He it is Who hath appointed night and day in succession, for him who desireth to remember, or desireth thankfulness.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ خِلْفَةً لِّمَنْ أَرَادَ أَن يَذَّكَّرَ أَوْ أَرَادَ شُكُورًا
وعباد الرحمن الذين يمشون على الأرض هونا وإذا خاطبهم الجاهلون قالوا سلاما
And the servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk upon the earth easily, and when the ignorant address them [harshly], they say [words of] peace,
The (faithful) slaves of the Beneficent are they who walk upon the earth modestly, and when the foolish ones address them answer: Peace;
وَعِبَادُ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَمْشُونَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ هَوْنًا وَإِذَا خَاطَبَهُمُ ٱلْجَٰهِلُونَ قَالُوا۟ سَلَٰمًا
والذين يبيتون لربهم سجدا وقياما

والذين يقولون ربنا اصرف عنا عذاب جهنم ۖ إن عذابها كان غراما
And those who say, "Our Lord, avert from us the punishment of Hell. Indeed, its punishment is ever adhering;
And who say: Our Lord! Avert from us the doom of hell; lo! the doom thereof is anguish;
وَٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا ٱصْرِفْ عَنَّا عَذَابَ جَهَنَّمَ إِنَّ عَذَابَهَا كَانَ غَرَامًا
إنها ساءت مستقرا ومقاما
Indeed, it is evil as a settlement and residence."

إِنَّهَا سَآءَتْ مُسْتَقَرًّا وَمُقَامًا
والذين إذا أنفقوا لم يسرفوا ولم يقتروا وكان بين ذلك قواما
And [they are] those who, when they spend, do so not excessively or sparingly but are ever, between that, [justly] moderate
And those who, when they spend, are neither prodigal nor grudging; and there is ever a firm station between the two;

يضاعف له العذاب يوم القيامة ويخلد فيه مهانا

يُضَٰعَفْ لَهُ ٱلْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ وَيَخْلُدْ فِيهِۦ مُهَانًا
إلا من تاب وآمن وعمل عملا صالحا فأولئك يبدل الله سيئاتهم حسنات ۗ وكان الله غفورا رحيما

والذين إذا ذكروا بآيات ربهم لم يخروا عليها صما وعميانا

خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا حَسُنَتْ مُسْتَقَرًّا وَمُقَامًا
قل ما يعبأ بكم ربي لولا دعاؤكم ۖ فقد كذبتم فسوف يكون لزاما
Say, "What would my Lord care for you if not for your supplication?" For you [disbelievers] have denied, so your denial is going to be adherent.
Say (O Muhammad, unto the disbelievers): My Lord would not concern Himself with you but for your prayer. But now ye have denied (the Truth), therefor there will be judgment.
قُلْ مَا يَعْبَؤُا۟ بِكُمْ رَبِّى لَوْلَا دُعَآؤُكُمْ فَقَدْ كَذَّبْتُمْ فَسَوْفَ يَكُونُ لِزَامًۢا
