1 The believers must (eventually) win through, -

1 Qad aflaha almuminoona

1 Successful indeed are the believers,

2 Those who humble themselves in their prayers;

2 Allatheena hum fee salatihim khashiAAoona

2 Who are humble in their prayers,

3 Who avoid vain talk;

3 Waallatheena hum AAani allaghwi muAAridoona

3 And who keep aloof from what is vain,

4 Who are active in deeds of charity;

4 Waallatheena hum lilzzakati faAAiloona

4 And who are givers of poor - rate,

5 Who abstain from sex,

5 Waallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoona

5 And who guard their private parts,

6 Except with those joined to them in the marriage bond, or (the captives) whom their right hands possess, - for (in their case) they are free from blame,

6 Illa AAala azwajihim aw ma malakat aymanuhum fainnahum ghayru maloomeena

6 Except before their mates or those whom their right hands possess, for they surely are not blameable,

7 But those whose desires exceed those limits are transgressors; -

7 Famani ibtagha waraa thalika faolaika humu alAAadoona

7 But whoever seeks to go beyond that, these are they that exceed the limits;

8 Those who faithfully observe their trusts and their covenants;

8 Waallatheena hum liamanatihim waAAahdihim raAAoona

8 And those who are keepers of their trusts and their covenant,

9 And who (strictly) guard their prayers; -

10 These will be the heirs,

10 Olaika humu alwarithoona

10 These are they who are the heirs,

11 Who will inherit Paradise: they will dwell therein (for ever).

11 Allatheena yarithoona alfirdawsa hum feeha khalidoona

11 Who shall inherit the Paradise; they shall abide therein.

12 Man We did create from a quintessence (of clay);

12 Walaqad khalaqna alinsana min sulalatin min teenin

12 And certainly We created man of an extract of clay,

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

13 Thumma jaAAalnahu nutfatan fee qararin makeenin

13 Then We made him a small seed in a firm resting - place,

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

14 Then We made the seed a clot, then We made the clot a lump of flesh, then We made (in) the lump of flesh bones, then We clothed the bones with flesh, then We caused it to grow into another creation, so blessed be Allah, the best of the creators.

15 After that, at length ye will die

15 Thumma innakum baAAda thalika lamayyitoona

15 Then after that you will most surely die.

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

16 Thumma innakum yawma alqiyamati tubAAathoona

16 Then surely on the day of resurrection you shall be raised.

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

17 Walaqad khalaqna fawqakum sabAAa taraiqa wama kunna AAani alkhalqi ghafileena

17 And certainly We made above you seven heavens; and never are We heedless of creation.

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

18 And We send down water from the cloud according to a measure, then We cause it to settle in the earth, and most surely We are able to carry it away.

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

19 Then We cause to grow thereby gardens of palm trees and grapes for you; you have in them many fruits and from them do you 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

20 And a tree that grows out of Mount Sinai which produces oil and a condiment for those who 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

21 And most surely there is a lesson for you in the cattle: We make you to drink of what is in their bellies, and you have in them many advantages and of them you eat,

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

22 WaAAalayha waAAala alfulki tuhmaloona

22 And on them and on the ships you are borne.

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

23 And certainly We sent Nuh to his people, and he said: O my people! serve Allah, you have no god other than Him; will you not then guard (against evil)?

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

24 And the chiefs of those who disbelieved from among his people said: He is nothing but a mortal like yourselves who desires that he may have superiority over you, and if Allah had pleased, He could certainly have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our fathers of yore:

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

25 He is only a madman, so bear with him for a time.

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

26 Qala rabbi onsurnee bima kaththabooni

26 He said: O my Lord! help me against their calling me a liar.

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

27 So We revealed to him, saying: Make the ark before Our eyes and (according to) Our revelation; and when Our command is given and the valley overflows, take into it of every kind a pair, two, and your followers, except those among them against whom the word has gone forth, and do not speak to Me in respect of those who are unjust; surely they shall be drowned.

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

28 And when you are firmly seated, you and those with you, in the ark, say: All praise is due to Allah who delivered us from the unjust people:

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

29 And say: O my Lord! cause me to disembark a blessed alighting, and Thou art the best to cause to alight.

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

30 Inna fee thalika laayatin wain kunna lamubtaleena

30 Most surely there are signs in this, and most surely We are ever trying (men).

31 Then We raised after them another generation.

31 Thumma anshana min baAAdihim qarnan akhareena

31 Then We raised up after them another generation.

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

32 So We sent among them an apostle from among them, saying: Serve Allah, you have no god other than Him; will you not then guard (against evil)?

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

33 And the chiefs of his people who disbelieved and called the meeting of the hereafter a lie, and whom We had given plenty to enjoy in this world's life, said: This is nothing but a mortal like yourselves, eating of what you eat from and drinking of what you drink.

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

34 Walain ataAAtum basharan mithlakum innakum ithan lakhasiroona

34 And if you obey a mortal like yourselves, then most surely you will be losers:

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

35 What! does he threaten you that when you are dead and become dust and bones that you shall then be brought forth?

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

36 Hayhata hayhata lima tooAAadoona

36 Far, far is that which you are threatened with.

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

37 There is naught but our life in this world; we die and we live and we shall not be raised again.

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

38 He is naught but a man who has forged a lie against Allah, and we are not going to believe in him.

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

39 Qala rabbi onsurnee bima kaththabooni

39 He said: O my Lord! help me against their calling me a liar.

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

40 Qala AAamma qaleelin layusbihunna nadimeena

40 He said: In a little while they will most certainly be repenting.

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

41 So the punishment overtook them in justice, and We made them as rubbish; so away with the unjust people.

42 Then We raised after them other generations.

42 Thumma anshana min baAAdihim quroonan akhareena

42 Then We raised after them other generations.

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

43 Ma tasbiqu min ommatin ajalaha wama yastakhiroona

43 No people can hasten on their doom nor can they postpone (it).

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

44 Then We sent Our apostles one after another; whenever there came to a people their apostle, they called him a liar, so We made some of them follow others and We made them stories; so away with a people who do not believe!

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

45 Thumma arsalna moosa waakhahu haroona biayatina wasultanin mubeenin

45 Then We sent Musa and his brother Haroun, with Our communications and a clear authority,

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

46 Ila firAAawna wamalaihi faistakbaroo wakanoo qawman AAaleena

46 To Firon and his chiefs, but they behaved haughtily and they were an insolent people.

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

47 And they said: What! shall we believe in two mortals like ourselves while their people serve us?

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

48 Fakaththaboohuma fakanoo mina almuhlakeena

48 So they rejected them and became of those who were destroyed.

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

49 Walaqad atayna moosa alkitaba laAAallahum yahtadoona

49 And certainly We gave Musa the Book that they may follow a right direction.

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

50 And We made the son of Marium and his mother a sign, and We gave them a shelter on a lofty ground having meadows and springs.

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

51 O apostles! eat of the good things and do good; surely I know what you do.

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

52 And surely this your religion is one religion and I am your Lord, therefore be careful (of your duty) to Me.

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

53 But they cut off their religion among themselves into sects, each part rejoicing in that which is with them.

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

54 Fatharhum fee ghamratihim hatta heenin

54 Therefore leave them in their overwhelming ignorance till

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

55 Ayahsaboona annama numidduhum bihi min malin wabaneena

55 Do they think that by what We aid them with of wealth and children,

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

56 NusariAAu lahum fee alkhayrati bal la yashAAuroona

56 We are hastening to them of good things? Nay, they do not perceive.

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

57 Inna allatheena hum min khashyati rabbihim mushfiqoona

57 Surely they who from fear of their Lord are cautious,

58 Those who believe in the Signs of their Lord;

58 Waallatheena hum biayati rabbihim yuminoona

58 And those who believe in the communications of their Lord,

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

59 Waallatheena hum birabbihim la yushrikoona

59 And those who do not associate (aught) with 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

60 And those who give what they give (in alms) while their hearts are full of fear that to their Lord they must return,

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

61 These hasten to good things and they are foremost in (attaining) them.

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

62 And We do not lay on any soul a burden except to the extent of its ability, and with Us is a book which speaks the truth, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly.

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

63 Nay, their hearts are in overwhelming ignorance with respect to it and they have besides this other deeds which they do.

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

64 Until when We overtake those who lead easy lives among them with punishment, lo! they cry for succor.

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

65 Cry not for succor this day; surely you shall not be given help from Us.

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

66 My communications were indeed recited to you, but you used to turn back on your heels,

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

67 Mustakbireena bihi samiran tahjuroona

67 In arrogance; talking nonsense about the Quran, and left him like one telling fables by night.

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

68 Is it then that they do not ponder over what is said, or is it that there has come to them that which did not come to their fathers of old?

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

69 Am lam yaAArifoo rasoolahum fahum lahu munkiroona

69 Or is it that they have not recognized their Apostle, so that they deny him?

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

70 Or do they say: There is madness in him? Nay! he has brought them the truth, and most of them are averse from the truth.

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

71 And should the truth follow their low desires, surely the heavens and the earth and all those who are therein would have perished. Nay! We have brought to them their reminder, but from their reminder they turn aside.

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

72 Or is it that you ask them a recompense? But the recompense of your Lord is best, and He is the best of those who provide sustenance.

73 But verily thou callest them to the Straight Way;

73 Wainnaka latadAAoohum ila siratin mustaqeemin

73 And most surely you invite them to a right way.

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

74 Wainna allatheena la yuminoona bialakhirati AAani alssirati lanakiboona

74 And most surely those who do not believe in the hereafter are deviating from the way.

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

75 And if We show mercy to them and remove the distress they have, they would persist in their inordinacy, blindly wandering on.

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

76 And already We overtook them with chastisement, but they were not submissive to their Lord, nor do they humble themselves.

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

77 Until when We open upon them a door of severe chastisement, lo! they are in despair at it.

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

78 And He it is Who made for you the ears and the eyes and the hearts; little is it that you give thanks.

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

79 And He it is Who multiplied you in the earth, and to Him you shall be gathered.

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

80 And He it is Who gives life and causes death, and (in) His (control) is the alternation of the night and the day; do you not then understand?

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

81 Bal qaloo mithla ma qala alawwaloona

81 Nay, they say the like of what the ancients said:

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

82 They say: What! When we are dead and become dust and bones, shall we then be raised?

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

83 Certainly we are promised this, and (so were) our fathers aforetime; this is naught but stories of those of old.

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

84 Qul limani alardu waman feeha in kuntum taAAlamoona

84 Say: Whose is the earth, and whoever is therein, if you know?

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

85 Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afala tathakkaroona

85 They will say: Allah's. Say: Will you not then mind?

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

86 Say: Who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the mighty dominion?

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

87 Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afala tattaqoona

87 They will say: (This is) Allah's. Say: Will you not then guard (against evil)?

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

88 Say: Who is it in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things and Who gives succor, but against Him Succor is not given, if you do but know?

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

89 Sayaqooloona lillahi qul faanna tusharoona

89 They will say: (This is) Allah's. Say: From whence are you then deceived?

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

90 Bal ataynahum bialhaqqi wainnahum lakathiboona

90 Nay! We have brought to them the truth, and most surely they are liars.

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

91 Never did Allah take to Himself a son, and never was there with him any (other) god - - in that case would each god have certainly taken away what he created, and some of them would certainly have overpowered others; glory be to Allah above what they describe!

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

92 The Knower of the unseen and the seen, so may He be exalted above what they associate (with Him).

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

93 Say: O my Lord! if Thou shouldst make me see what they are threatened with:

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

94 Rabbi fala tajAAalnee fee alqawmi alththalimeena

94 My Lord! then place me not with the unjust.

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

95 And most surely We are well able to make you see what We threaten them with.

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