6 Illa AAala azwajihim aw ma malakat aymanuhum fainnahum ghayru maloomeena

13 Then We placed him as a sperm - drop in a firm lodging.

13 Then We placed him as (a drop of) sperm in a place of rest, firmly fixed;

13 Thumma jaAAalnahu nutfatan fee qararin makeenin

14 Then We made the sperm - drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah, the best of creators.

14 Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be Allah, the best to create!

14 Thumma khalaqna alnnutfata AAalaqatan fakhalaqna alAAalaqata mudghatan fakhalaqna almudghata AAithaman fakasawna alAAithama lahman thumma anshanahu khalqan akhara fatabaraka Allahu ahsanu alkhaliqeena

15 Then indeed, after that you are to die.

15 After that, at length ye will die

15 Thumma innakum baAAda thalika lamayyitoona

16 Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, will be resurrected.

16 Again, on the Day of Judgment, will ye be raised up.

17 And We have created above you seven layered heavens, and never have We been of [Our] creation unaware.

17 And We have made, above you, seven tracts; and We are never unmindful of (our) Creation.

18 And We have sent down rain from the sky in a measured amount and settled it in the earth. And indeed, We are Able to take it away.

18 And We send down water from the sky according to (due) measure, and We cause it to soak in the soil; and We certainly are able to drain it off (with ease).

18 Waanzalna mina alssamai maan biqadarin faaskannahu fee alardi wainna AAala thahabin bihi laqadiroona

19 And We brought forth for you thereby gardens of palm trees and grapevines in which for you are abundant fruits and from which you eat.

19 With it We grow for you gardens of date - palms and vines: in them have ye abundant fruits: and of them ye eat (and have enjoyment), -

19 Faanshana lakum bihi jannatin min nakheelin waaAAnabin lakum feeha fawakihu katheeratun waminha takuloona

20 And [We brought forth] a tree issuing from Mount Sinai which produces oil and food for those who eat.

20 Also a tree springing out of Mount Sinai, which produces oil, and relish for those who use it for food.

20 Washajaratan takhruju min toori saynaa tanbutu bialdduhni wasibghin lilakileena

21 And indeed, for you in livestock is a lesson. We give you drink from that which is in their bellies, and for you in them are numerous benefits, and from them you eat.

21 And in cattle (too) ye have an instructive example: from within their bodies We produce (milk) for you to drink; there are, in them, (besides), numerous (other) benefits for you; and of their (meat) ye eat;

21 Wainna lakum fee alanAAami laAAibratan nusqeekum mimma fee butooniha walakum feeha manafiAAu katheeratun waminha takuloona

22 And upon them and on ships you are carried.

22 And on them, as well as in ships, ye ride.

22 WaAAalayha waAAala alfulki tuhmaloona

23 And We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"

23 (Further, We sent a long line of prophets for your instruction). We sent Noah to his people: He said, "O my people! worship Allah! Ye have no other god but Him. Will ye not fear (Him)?"

23 Walaqad arsalna noohan ila qawmihi faqala ya qawmi oAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoona

24 But the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a man like yourselves who wishes to take precedence over you; and if Allah had willed [to send a messenger], He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers.

24 The chiefs of the Unbelievers among his people said: "He is no more than a man like yourselves: his wish is to assert his superiority over you: if Allah had wished (to send messengers), He could have sent down angels; never did we hear such a thing (as he says), among our ancestors of old."

24 Faqala almalao allatheena kafaroo min qawmihi ma hatha illa basharun mithlukum yureedu an yatafaddala AAalaykum walaw shaa Allahu laanzala malaikatan ma samiAAna bihatha fee abaina alawwaleena

25 He is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait concerning him for a time."

25 (And some said): "He is only a man possessed: wait (and have patience) with him for a time."

25 In huwa illa rajulun bihi jinnatun fatarabbasoo bihi hatta heenin

26 [Noah] said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."

26 (Noah) said: "O my Lord! help me: for that they accuse me of falsehood!"

26 Qala rabbi onsurnee bima kaththabooni

27 So We inspired to him, "Construct the ship under Our observation, and Our inspiration, and when Our command comes and the oven overflows, put into the ship from each [creature] two mates and your family, except those for whom the decree [of destruction] has proceeded. And do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are to be drowned.

27 So We inspired him (with this message): "Construct the Ark within Our sight and under Our guidance: then when comes Our Command, and the fountains of the earth gush forth, take thou on board pairs of every species, male and female, and thy family - except those of them against whom the Word has already gone forth: And address Me not in favour of the wrong - doers; for they shall be drowned (in the Flood).

27 Faawhayna ilayhi ani isnaAAi alfulka biaAAyunina wawahyina faitha jaa amruna wafara alttannooru faosluk feeha min kullin zawjayni ithnayni waahlaka illa man sabaqa AAalayhi alqawlu minhum wala tukhatibnee fee allatheena thalamoo innahum mughraqoona

28 And when you have boarded the ship, you and those with you, then say, 'Praise to Allah who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.'

28 And when thou hast embarked on the Ark - thou and those with thee, - say: "Praise be to Allah, Who has saved us from the people who do wrong."

28 Faitha istawayta anta waman maAAaka AAala alfulki faquli alhamdu lillahi allathee najjana mina alqawmi alththalimeena

29 And say, 'My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us].' "

29 And say: "O my Lord! enable me to disembark with thy blessing: for Thou art the Best to enable (us) to disembark."

29 Waqul rabbi anzilnee munzalan mubarakan waanta khayru almunzileena

30 Indeed in that are signs, and indeed, We are ever testing [Our servants].

30 Verily in this there are Signs (for men to understand); (thus) do We try (men).

30 Inna fee thalika laayatin wain kunna lamubtaleena

31 Then We produced after them a generation of others.

31 Then We raised after them another generation.

31 Thumma anshana min baAAdihim qarnan akhareena

32 And We sent among them a messenger from themselves, [saying], "Worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"

32 And We sent to them a messenger from among themselves, (saying), "Worship Allah! ye have no other god but Him. Will ye not fear (Him)?"

32 Faarsalna feehim rasoolan minhum ani oAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoona

33 And the eminent among his people who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter while We had given them luxury in the worldly life said, "This is not but a man like yourselves. He eats of that from which you eat and drinks of what you drink.

33 And the chiefs of his people, who disbelieved and denied the Meeting in the Hereafter, and on whom We had bestowed the good things of this life, said: "He is no more than a man like yourselves: he eats of that of which ye eat, and drinks of what ye drink.

33 Waqala almalao min qawmihi allatheena kafaroo wakaththaboo biliqai alakhirati waatrafnahum fee alhayati alddunya ma hatha illa basharun mithlukum yakulu mimma takuloona minhu wayashrabu mimma tashraboona

34 And if you should obey a man like yourselves, indeed, you would then be losers.

34 "If ye obey a man like yourselves, behold, it is certain ye will be lost.

34 Walain ataAAtum basharan mithlakum innakum ithan lakhasiroona

35 Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones that you will be brought forth [once more]?

35 "Does he promise that when ye die and become dust and bones, ye shall be brought forth (again)?

35 AyaAAidukum annakum itha mittum wakuntum turaban waAAithaman annakum mukhrajoona

36 How far, how far, is that which you are promised.

36 "Far, very far is that which ye are promised!

36 Hayhata hayhata lima tooAAadoona

37 Life is not but our worldly life - we die and live, but we will not be resurrected.

37 "There is nothing but our life in this world! We shall die and we live! But we shall never be raised up again!

37 In hiya illa hayatuna alddunya namootu wanahya wama nahnu bimabAAootheena

38 He is not but a man who has invented a lie about Allah, and we will not believe him."

38 "He is only a man who invents a lie against Allah, but we are not the ones to believe in him!"

38 In huwa illa rajulun iftara AAala Allahi kathiban wama nahnu lahu bimumineena

39 He said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."

39 (The prophet) said: "O my Lord! help me: for that they accuse me of falsehood."

39 Qala rabbi onsurnee bima kaththabooni

40 [Allah] said, "After a little, they will surely become regretful."

40 (Allah) said: "In but a little while, they are sure to be sorry!"

40 Qala AAamma qaleelin layusbihunna nadimeena

41 So the shriek seized them in truth, and We made them as [plant] stubble. Then away with the wrongdoing people.

41 Then the Blast overtook them with justice, and We made them as rubbish of dead leaves (floating on the stream of Time)! So away with the people who do wrong!

41 Faakhathathumu alssayhatu bialhaqqi fajaAAalnahum ghuthaan fabuAAdan lilqawmi alththalimeena

42 Then We produced after them other generations.

42 Then We raised after them other generations.

42 Thumma anshana min baAAdihim quroonan akhareena

43 No nation will precede its time [of termination], nor will they remain [thereafter].

43 No people can hasten their term, nor can they delay (it).

43 Ma tasbiqu min ommatin ajalaha wama yastakhiroona

44 Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation its messenger, they denied him, so We made them follow one another [to destruction], and We made them narrations. So away with a people who do not believe.

44 Then sent We our messengers in succession: every time there came to a people their messenger, they accused him of falsehood: so We made them follow each other (in punishment): We made them as a tale (that is told): So away with a people that will not believe!

44 Thumma arsalna rusulana tatra kulla ma jaa ommatan rasooluha kaththaboohu faatbaAAna baAAdahum baAAdan wajaAAalnahum ahadeetha fabuAAdan liqawmin la yuminoona

45 Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our signs and a clear authority

45 Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron, with Our Signs and authority manifest,

45 Thumma arsalna moosa waakhahu haroona biayatina wasultanin mubeenin

46 To Pharaoh and his establishment, but they were arrogant and were a haughty people.

46 To Pharaoh and his Chiefs: But these behaved insolently: they were an arrogant people.

46 Ila firAAawna wamalaihi faistakbaroo wakanoo qawman AAaleena

47 They said, "Should we believe two men like ourselves while their people are for us in servitude?"

47 They said: "Shall we believe in two men like ourselves? And their people are subject to us!"

47 Faqaloo anuminu libasharayni mithlina waqawmuhuma lana AAabidoona

48 So they denied them and were of those destroyed.

48 So they accused them of falsehood, and they became of those who were destroyed.

48 Fakaththaboohuma fakanoo mina almuhlakeena

49 And We certainly gave Moses the Scripture that perhaps they would be guided.

49 And We gave Moses the Book, in order that they might receive guidance.

49 Walaqad atayna moosa alkitaba laAAallahum yahtadoona

50 And We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign and sheltered them within a high ground having level [areas] and flowing water.

50 And We made the son of Mary and his mother as a Sign: We gave them both shelter on high ground, affording rest and security and furnished with springs.

50 WajaAAalna ibna maryama waommahu ayatan waawaynahuma ila rabwatin thati qararin wamaAAeenin

51 [Allah said], "O messengers, eat from the good foods and work righteousness. Indeed, I, of what you do, am Knowing.

51 O ye messengers! enjoy (all) things good and pure, and work righteousness: for I am well - acquainted with (all) that ye do.

51 Ya ayyuha alrrusulu kuloo mina alttayyibati waiAAmaloo salihan innee bima taAAmaloona AAaleemun

52 And indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me."

52 And verily this Brotherhood of yours is a single Brotherhood, and I am your Lord and Cherisher: therefore fear Me (and no other).

52 Wainna hathihi ommatukum ommatan wahidatan waana rabbukum faittaqooni

53 But the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing.

53 But people have cut off their affair (of unity), between them, into sects: each party rejoices in that which is with itself.

53 FataqattaAAoo amrahum baynahum zuburan kullu hizbin bima ladayhim farihoona

54 So leave them in their confusion for a time.

54 But leave them in their confused ignorance for a time.

54 Fatharhum fee ghamratihim hatta heenin

55 Do they think that what We extend to them of wealth and children

55 Do they think that because We have granted them abundance of wealth and sons,

55 Ayahsaboona annama numidduhum bihi min malin wabaneena

56 Is [because] We hasten for them good things? Rather, they do not perceive.

56 We would hasten them on in every good? Nay, they do not understand.

56 NusariAAu lahum fee alkhayrati bal la yashAAuroona

57 Indeed, they who are apprehensive from fear of their Lord

57 Verily those who live in awe for fear of their Lord;

57 Inna allatheena hum min khashyati rabbihim mushfiqoona

58 And they who believe in the signs of their Lord

58 Those who believe in the Signs of their Lord;

58 Waallatheena hum biayati rabbihim yuminoona

59 And they who do not associate anything with their Lord

59 Those who join not (in worship) partners with their Lord;

59 Waallatheena hum birabbihim la yushrikoona

60 And they who give what they give while their hearts are fearful because they will be returning to their Lord -

60 And those who dispense their charity with their hearts full of fear, because they will return to their Lord; -

60 Waallatheena yutoona ma ataw waquloobuhum wajilatun annahum ila rabbihim rajiAAoona

61 It is those who hasten to good deeds, and they outstrip [others] therein.

61 It is these who hasten in every good work, and these who are foremost in them.

61 Olaika yusariAAoona fee alkhayrati wahum laha sabiqoona

62 And We charge no soul except [with that within] its capacity, and with Us is a record which speaks with truth; and they will not be wronged.

62 On no soul do We place a burden greater than it can bear: before Us is a record which clearly shows the truth: they will never be wronged.

62 Wala nukallifu nafsan illa wusAAaha waladayna kitabun yantiqu bialhaqqi wahum la yuthlamoona

63 But their hearts are covered with confusion over this, and they have [evil] deeds besides disbelief which they are doing,

63 But their hearts are in confused ignorance of this; and there are, besides that, deeds of theirs, which they will (continue) to do, -

63 Bal quloobuhum fee ghamratin min hatha walahum aAAmalun min dooni thalika hum laha AAamiloona

64 Until when We seize their affluent ones with punishment, at once they are crying [to Allah] for help.

64 Until, when We seize in Punishment those of them who received the good things of this world, behold, they will groan in supplication!

64 Hatta itha akhathna mutrafeehim bialAAathabi itha hum yajaroona

65 Do not cry out today. Indeed, by Us you will not be helped.

65 (It will be said): "Groan not in supplication this day: for ye shall certainly not be helped by Us.

65 La tajaroo alyawma innakum minna la tunsaroona

66 My verses had already been recited to you, but you were turning back on your heels

66 "My Signs used to be rehearsed to you, but ye used to turn back on your heels -

66 Qad kanat ayatee tutla AAalaykum fakuntum AAala aAAqabikum tankisoona

67 In arrogance regarding it, conversing by night, speaking evil.

67 "In arrogance: talking nonsense about the (Qur'an), like one telling fables by night."

67 Mustakbireena bihi samiran tahjuroona

68 Then have they not reflected over the Qur'an, or has there come to them that which had not come to their forefathers?

68 Do they not ponder over the Word (of Allah), or has anything (new) come to them that did not come to their fathers of old?

68 Afalam yaddabbaroo alqawla am jaahum ma lam yati abaahumu alawwaleena

69 Or did they not know their Messenger, so they are toward him disacknowledging?

69 Or do they not recognise their Messenger, that they deny him?

69 Am lam yaAArifoo rasoolahum fahum lahu munkiroona

70 Or do they say, "In him is madness?" Rather, he brought them the truth, but most of them, to the truth, are averse.

70 Or do they say, "He is possessed"? Nay, he has brought them the Truth, but most of them hate the Truth.

70 Am yaqooloona bihi jinnatun bal jaahum bialhaqqi waaktharuhum lilhaqqi karihoona

71 But if the Truth had followed their inclinations, the heavens and the earth and whoever is in them would have been ruined. Rather, We have brought them their message, but they, from their message, are turning away.

71 If the Truth had been in accord with their desires, truly the heavens and the earth, and all beings therein would have been in confusion and corruption! Nay, We have sent them their admonition, but they turn away from their admonition.

71 Walawi ittabaAAa alhaqqu ahwaahum lafasadati alssamawatu waalardu waman feehinna bal ataynahum bithikrihim fahum AAan thikrihim muAAridoona

72 Or do you, [O Muhammad], ask them for payment? But the reward of your Lord is best, and He is the best of providers.

72 Or is it that thou askest them for some recompense? But the recompense of thy Lord is best: He is the Best of those who give sustenance.

72 Am tasaluhum kharjan fakharaju rabbika khayrun wahuwa khayru alrraziqeena

73 And indeed, you invite them to a straight path.

73 But verily thou callest them to the Straight Way;

73 Wainnaka latadAAoohum ila siratin mustaqeemin

74 But indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter are deviating from the path.

74 And verily those who believe not in the Hereafter are deviating from that Way.

74 Wainna allatheena la yuminoona bialakhirati AAani alssirati lanakiboona

75 And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.

75 If We had mercy on them and removed the distress which is on them, they would obstinately persist in their transgression, wandering in distraction to and fro.

75 Walaw rahimnahum wakashafna ma bihim min durrin lalajjoo fee tughyanihim yaAAmahoona

76 And We had gripped them with suffering [as a warning], but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, [and will continue thus]

76 We inflicted Punishment on them, but they humbled not themselves to their Lord, nor do they submissively entreat (Him)! -

76 Walaqad akhathnahum bialAAathabi fama istakanoo lirabbihim wama yatadarraAAoona

77 Until when We have opened before them a door of severe punishment, immediately they will be therein in despair.

77 Until We open on them a gate leading to a severe Punishment: then Lo! they will be plunged in despair therein!

77 Hatta itha fatahna AAalayhim baban tha AAathabin shadeedin itha hum feehi mublisoona

78 And it is He who produced for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful.

78 It is He Who has created for you (the faculties of) hearing, sight, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give!

78 Wahuwa allathee anshaa lakumu alssamAAa waalabsara waalafidata qaleelan ma tashkuroona

79 And it is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered.

79 And He has multiplied you through the earth, and to Him shall ye be gathered back.

79 Wahuwa allathee tharaakum fee alardi wailayhi tuhsharoona

80 And it is He who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of the night and the day. Then will you not reason?

80 It is He Who gives life and death, and to Him (is due) the alternation of Night and Day: will ye not then understand?

80 Wahuwa allathee yuhyee wayumeetu walahu ikhtilafu allayli waalnnahari afala taAAqiloona

81 Rather, they say like what the former peoples said.

81 On the contrary they say things similar to what the ancients said.

81 Bal qaloo mithla ma qala alawwaloona

82 They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

82 They say: "What! when we die and become dust and bones, could we really be raised up again?

82 Qaloo aitha mitna wakunna turaban waAAithaman ainna lamabAAoothoona

83 We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples."

83 "Such things have been promised to us and to our fathers before! they are nothing but tales of the ancients!"

83 Laqad wuAAidna nahnu waabaona hatha min qablu in hatha illa asateeru alawwaleena

84 Say, [O Muhammad], "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know?"

84 Say: "To whom belong the earth and all beings therein? (say) if ye know!"

84 Qul limani alardu waman feeha in kuntum taAAlamoona

85 They will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then will you not remember?"

85 They will say, "To Allah!" say: "Yet will ye not receive admonition?"

85 Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afala tathakkaroona

86 Say, "Who is Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Great Throne?"

86 Say: "Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Throne (of Glory) Supreme?"

86 Qul man rabbu alssamawati alssabAAi warabbu alAAarshi alAAatheemi

87 They will say, "[They belong] to Allah." Say, "Then will you not fear Him?"

87 They will say, "(They belong) to Allah." Say: "Will ye not then be filled with awe?"

87 Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afala tattaqoona

88 Say, "In whose hand is the realm of all things - and He protects while none can protect against Him - if you should know?"

88 Say: "Who is it in whose hands is the governance of all things, - who protects (all), but is not protected (of any)? (say) if ye know."

88 Qul man biyadihi malakootu kulli shayin wahuwa yujeeru wala yujaru AAalayhi in kuntum taAAlamoona

89 They will say, "[All belongs] to Allah." Say, "Then how are you deluded?"

89 They will say, "(It belongs) to Allah." Say: "Then how are ye deluded?"

89 Sayaqooloona lillahi qul faanna tusharoona

90 Rather, We have brought them the truth, and indeed they are liars.

90 We have sent them the Truth: but they indeed practise falsehood!

90 Bal ataynahum bialhaqqi wainnahum lakathiboona

91 Allah has not taken any son, nor has there ever been with Him any deity. [If there had been], then each deity would have taken what it created, and some of them would have sought to overcome others. Exalted is Allah above what they describe [concerning Him].

91 No son did Allah beget, nor is there any god along with Him: (if there were many gods), behold, each god would have taken away what he had created, and some would have lorded it over others! Glory to Allah! (He is free) from the (sort of) things they attribute to Him!

91 Ma ittakhatha Allahu min waladin wama kana maAAahu min ilahin ithan lathahaba kullu ilahin bima khalaqa walaAAala baAAduhum AAala baAAdin subhana Allahi AAamma yasifoona

92 [He is] Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, so high is He above what they associate [with Him].

92 He knows what is hidden and what is open: too high is He for the partners they attribute to Him!

92 AAalimi alghaybi waalshshahadati fataAAala AAamma yushrikoona

93 Say, [O Muhammad], "My Lord, if You should show me that which they are promised,

93 Say: "O my Lord! if Thou wilt show me (in my lifetime) that which they are warned against, -

93 Qul rabbi imma turiyannee ma yooAAadoona

94 My Lord, then do not place me among the wrongdoing people."

94 "Then, O my Lord! put me not amongst the people who do wrong!"

94 Rabbi fala tajAAalnee fee alqawmi alththalimeena

95 And indeed, We are able to show you what We have promised them.

95 And We are certainly able to show thee (in fulfilment) that against which they are warned.

95 Wainna AAala an nuriyaka ma naAAiduhum laqadiroona

96 Repel, by [means of] what is best, [their] evil. We are most knowing of what they describe.

96 Repel evil with that which is best: We are well acquainted with the things they say.

117 If anyone invokes, besides Allah, Any other god, he has no authority therefor; and his reckoning will be only with his Lord! and verily the Unbelievers will fail to win through!

117 Waman yadAAu maAAa Allahi ilahan akhara la burhana lahu bihi fainnama hisabuhu AAinda rabbihi innahu la yuflihu alkafiroona
