Ya Sin

1 Yaseen

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Ya Sin.

2 Waalqurani alhakeemi

2 By the wise Qur'an,

3 Innaka lamina almursaleena

3 Lo! thou art of those sent

4 AAala siratin mustaqeemin

4 On a straight path,

5 Tanzeela alAAazeezi alrraheemi

5 A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful,

6 Litunthira qawman ma onthira abaohum fahum ghafiloona

6 That thou mayst warn a folk whose fathers were not warned, so they are heedless.

7 Laqad haqqa alqawlu AAala aktharihim fahum la yuminoona

7 Already hath the judgment, (for their infidelity) proved true of most of them, for they believe not.

8 Inna jaAAalna fee aAAnaqihim aghlalan fahiya ila alathqani fahum muqmahoona

8 Lo! We have put on their necks carcans reaching unto the chins, so that they are made stiff - necked.

9 WajaAAalna min bayni aydeehim saddan wamin khalfihim saddan faaghshaynahum fahum la yubsiroona

9 And We have set a bar before them and a bar behind them, and (thus) have covered them so that they see not.

10 Wasawaon AAalayhim aanthartahum am lam tunthirhum la yuminoona

10 Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not, it is alike for them, for they believe not.

11 Innama tunthiru mani ittabaAAa alththikra wakhashiya alrrahmana bialghaybi fabashshirhu bimaghfiratin waajrin kareemin

11 Thou warnest only him who followeth the Reminder and feareth the Beneficent in secret. To him bear tidings of forgiveness and a rich reward.

12 Inna nahnu nuhyee almawta wanaktubu ma qaddamoo waatharahum wakulla shayin ahsaynahu fee imamin mubeenin

12 Lo! We it is Who bring the dead to life. We record that which they send before (them, and their footprints. And all things We have kept in a clear Register.

13 Waidrib lahum mathalan ashaba alqaryati ith jaaha almursaloona

13 Coin for them a similitude: The people of the city when those sent (from Allah) came unto them;

14 Ith arsalna ilayhimu ithnayni fakaththaboohuma faAAazzazna bithalithin faqaloo inna ilaykum mursaloona

14 When We sent unto them twain, and they denied them both, so We reinforced them with a third, and they said: Lo! we have been sent unto you.

15 Qaloo ma antum illa basharun mithluna wama anzala alrrahmanu min shayin in antum illa takthiboona

15 They said: Ye are but mortals like unto us. The Beneficent hath naught revealed. Ye do but lie!

16 Qaloo rabbuna yaAAlamu inna ilaykum lamursaloona

16 They answered: Our Lord knoweth that we are indeed sent unto you,

17 Wama AAalayna illa albalaghu almubeenu

17 And our duty is but plain conveyance (of the message).

18 Qaloo inna tatayyarna bikum lain lam tantahoo lanarjumannakum walayamassannakum minna AAathabun aleemun

18 (The people of the city) said: We augur ill of you. If ye desist not, we shall surely stone you, and grievous torture will befall you at our hands.

19 Qaloo tairukum maAAakum ain thukkirtum bal antum qawmun musrifoona

19 They said: Your evil augury be with you! Is it because ye are reminded (of the truth) ? Nay, but ye are froward folk!

20 Wajaa min aqsa almadeenati rajulun yasAAa qala ya qawmi ittabiAAoo almursaleena

20 And there came from the uttermost part of the city a man running. He cried: O my people! Follow those who have been sent!

21 IttabiAAoo man la yasalukum ajran wahum muhtadoona

21 Follow those who ask of you no fee, and who are rightly guided.

22 Wama liya la aAAbudu allathee fataranee wailayhi turjaAAoona

22 For what cause should I not serve Him Who hath created me, and unto Whom ye will be brought back ?

23 Aattakhithu min doonihi alihatan in yuridni alrrahmanu bidurrin la tughni AAannee shafaAAatuhum shayan wala yunqithooni

23 Shall I take (other) gods in place of Him when, if the Beneficent should wish me any harm, their intercession will avail me naught, nor can they save ?

24 Innee ithan lafee dalalin mubeenin

24 Then truly I should be in error manifest.

25 Innee amantu birabbikum faismaAAooni

25 Lo! I have believed in your Lord, so hear me!

26 Qeela odkhuli aljannata qala ya layta qawmee yaAAlamoona

26 It was said (unto him): Enter paradise. He said: Would that my people knew

27 Bima ghafara lee rabbee wajaAAalanee mina almukrameena

27 With what (munificence) my Lord hath pardoned me and made me of the honoured ones!

28 Wama anzalna AAala qawmihi min baAAdihi min jundin mina alssamai wama kunna munzileena

28 We sent not down against his people after him a host from heaven, nor do We ever send.

29 In kanat illa sayhatan wahidatan faitha hum khamidoona

29 It was but one Shout, and lo! they were extinct.

30 Ya hasratan AAala alAAibadi ma yateehim min rasoolin illa kanoo bihi yastahzioona

30 Ah, the anguish for the bondmen! Never came there unto them a messenger but they did mock him!

31 Alam yaraw kam ahlakna qablahum mina alqurooni annahum ilayhim la yarjiAAoona

31 Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them, which indeed returned not unto them;

32 Wain kullun lamma jameeAAun ladayna muhdaroona

32 But all, without exception, will be brought before Us.

33 Waayatun lahumu alardu almaytatu ahyaynaha waakhrajna minha habban faminhu yakuloona

33 A token unto them is the dead earth. We revive it, and We bring forth from it grain so that they eat thereof;

34 WajaAAalna feeha jannatin min nakheelin waaAAnabin wafajjarna feeha mina alAAuyooni

34 And We have placed therein gardens of the date - palm and grapes, and We have caused springs of water to gush forth therein,

35 Liyakuloo min thamarihi wama AAamilathu aydeehim afala yashkuroona

35 That they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hands made it not. Will they not, then, give thanks ?

36 Subhana allathee khalaqa alazwaja kullaha mimma tunbitu alardu wamin anfusihim wamimma la yaAAlamoona

36 Glory be to Him Who created all the sexual pairs, of that which the earth groweth, and of themselves, and of that which they know not!

37 Waayatun lahumu allaylu naslakhu minhu alnnahara faitha hum muthlimoona

37 A token unto them is night. We strip it of the day, and lo! they are in darkness.

38 Waalshshamsu tajree limustaqarrin laha thalika taqdeeru alAAazeezi alAAaleemi

38 And the sun runneth on unto a resting - place for him. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.

39 Waalqamara qaddarnahu manazila hatta AAada kaalAAurjooni alqadeemi

39 And for the moon We have appointed mansions till she return like an old shrivelled palm - leaf.

40 La alshshamsu yanbaghee laha an tudrika alqamara wala allaylu sabiqu alnnahari wakullun fee falakin yasbahoona

40 It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor doth the night outstrip the day. They float each in an orbit.

41 Waayatun lahum anna hamalna thurriyyatahum fee alfulki almashhooni

41 And a token unto them is that We bear their offspring in the laden ship,

42 Wakhalaqna lahum min mithlihi ma yarkaboona

42 And have created for them of the like thereof whereon they ride.

43 Wain nasha nughriqhum fala sareekha lahum wala hum yunqathoona

43 And if We will, We drown them, and there is no help for them, neither can they be saved;

44 Illa rahmatan minna wamataAAan ila heenin

44 Unless by mercy from Us and as comfort for a while.

45 Waitha qeela lahumu ittaqoo ma bayna aydeekum wama khalfakum laAAallakum turhamoona

45 When it is said unto them: Beware of that which is before you and that which is behind you, that haply ye may find mercy (they are heedless).

46 Wama tateehim min ayatin min ayati rabbihim illa kanoo AAanha muAArideena

46 Never came a token of the tokens of their Lord to them, but they did turn away from it!

47 Waitha qeela lahum anfiqoo mimma razaqakumu Allahu qala allatheena kafaroo lillatheena amanoo anutAAimu man law yashao Allahu atAAamahu in antum illa fee dalalin mubeenin

47 And when it is said unto them: Spend of that wherewith Allah hath provided you, those who disbelieve say unto those who believe: Shall we feed those whom Allah, if He willed, would feed ? Ye are in naught else than error manifest.

48 Wayaqooloona mata hatha alwaAAdu in kuntum sadiqeena

48 And they say: When will this promise be fulfilled, if ye are truthful ?

49 Ma yanthuroona illa sayhatan wahidatan takhuthuhum wahum yakhissimoona

49 They await but one Shout, which will surprise them while they are disputing.

50 Fala yastateeAAoona tawsiyatan wala ila ahlihim yarjiAAoona

50 Then they cannot make bequest, nor can they return to their own folk.

51 Wanufikha fee alssoori faitha hum mina alajdathi ila rabbihim yansiloona

51 And the trumpet is blown and lo! from the graves they hie unto their Lord,

52 Qaloo ya waylana man baAAathana min marqadina hatha ma waAAada alrrahmanu wasadaqa almursaloona

52 Crying: Woe upon us! Who hath raised us from our place of sleep ? This is that which the Beneficent did promise, and the messengers spoke truth.

53 In kanat illa sayhatan wahidatan faitha hum jameeAAun ladayna muhdaroona

53 It is but one Shout, and behold them brought together before Us!

54 Faalyawma la tuthlamu nafsun shayan wala tujzawna illa ma kuntum taAAmaloona

54 This day no soul is wronged in aught; nor are ye requited aught save what ye used to do.

55 Inna ashaba aljannati alyawma fee shughulin fakihoona

55 Lo! those who merit paradise this day are happily employed,

56 Hum waazwajuhum fee thilalin AAala alaraiki muttakioona

56 They and their wives, in pleasant shade, on thrones reclining;

57 Lahum feeha fakihatun walahum ma yaddaAAoona

57 Theirs the fruit (of their good deeds) and theirs (all) that they ask;

58 Salamun qawlan min rabbin raheemin

58 The word from a Merciful Lord (for them) is: Peace!

59 Waimtazoo alyawma ayyuha almujrimoona

59 But avaunt ye, O ye guilty, this day!

60 Alam aAAhad ilaykum ya banee adama an la taAAbudoo alshshaytana innahu lakum AAaduwwun mubeenun

60 Did I not charge you, O ye sons of Adam, that ye worship not the devil - Lo! he is your open foe! -

61 Waani oAAbudoonee hatha siratun mustaqeemun

61 But that ye worship Me ? That was the right path.

62 Walaqad adalla minkum jibillan katheeran afalam takoonoo taAAqiloona

62 Yet he hath led astray of you a great multitude. Had ye then no sense ?

63 Hathihi jahannamu allatee kuntum tooAAadoona

63 This is hell which ye were promised (if ye followed him).

64 Islawha alyawma bima kuntum takfuroona

64 Burn therein this day for that ye disbelieved.

65 Alyawma nakhtimu AAala afwahihim watukallimuna aydeehim watashhadu arjuluhum bima kanoo yaksiboona

65 This day We seal up their mouths, and their hands speak out to Us and their feet bear witness as to what they used to earn.

66 Walaw nashao latamasna AAala aAAyunihim faistabaqoo alssirata faanna yubsiroona

66 And had We willed, We verily could have quenched their eyesight so that they should struggle for the way. Then how could they have seen ?

67 Walaw nashao lamasakhnahum AAala makanatihim fama istataAAoo mudiyyan wala yarjiAAoona

67 And had We willed, We verily could have fixed them in their place, making them powerless to go forward or turn back.

68 Waman nuAAammirhu nunakkishu fee alkhalqi afala yaAAqiloona

68 He whom we bring unto old age, We reverse him in creation (making him go back to weakness after strength). Have ye then no sense ?

69 Wama AAallamnahu alshshiAAra wama yanbaghee lahu in huwa illa thikrun waquranun mubeenun

69 And We have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry, nor is it meet for him. This is naught else than a Reminder and a Lecture making plain,

70 Liyunthira man kana hayyan wayahiqqa alqawlu AAala alkafireena

70 To warn whosoever liveth, and that the word may be fulfilled against the disbelievers.

71 Awalam yaraw anna khalaqna lahum mimma AAamilat aydeena anAAaman fahum laha malikoona

71 Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork the cattle, so that they are their owners,

72 Wathallalnaha lahum faminha rakoobuhum waminha yakuloona

72 And have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding, some for food ?

73 Walahum feeha manafiAAu wamasharibu afala yashkuroona

73 Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks ?

74 Waittakhathoo min dooni Allahi alihatan laAAallahum yunsaroona

74 And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped.

75 La yastateeAAoona nasrahum wahum lahum jundun muhdaroona

75 It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms.

76 Fala yahzunka qawluhum inna naAAlamu ma yusirroona wama yuAAlinoona

76 So let not their speech grieve thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim.

77 Awalam yara alinsanu anna khalaqnahu min nutfatin faitha huwa khaseemun mubeenun

77 Hath not man seen that We have created him from a drop of seed ? Yet lo! he is an open opponent.

78 Wadaraba lana mathalan wanasiya khalqahu qala man yuhyee alAAithama wahiya rameemun

78 And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away ?

79 Qul yuhyeeha allathee anshaaha awwala marratin wahuwa bikulli khalqin AAaleemun

79 Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation,

80 Allathee jaAAala lakum mina alshshajari alakhdari naran faitha antum minhu tooqidoona

80 Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it.

81 Awalaysa allathee khalaqa alssamawati waalarda biqadirin AAala an yakhluqa mithlahum bala wahuwa alkhallaqu alAAaleemu

81 Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the like of them ? Aye, that He is! for He is the All - Wise Creator,

82 Innama amruhu itha arada shayan an yaqoola lahu kun fayakoonu

82 But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: Be! and it is.

83 Fasubhana allathee biyadihi malakootu kulli shayin wailayhi turjaAAoona

83 Therefor Glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion over all things! Unto Him ye will be brought back.
