Nor does he speak from [his own] inclination.
وَمَا يَنطِقُ عَنِ ٱلْهَوَىٰٓ
In huwa illa wahyun yooha
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحْيٌ يُوحَىٰ
It is not but a revelation revealed,
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحْىٌ يُوحَىٰ

ذُو مِرَّةٍ فَاسْتَوَىٰ

Wahuwa bialofuqi alaAAla
وَهُوَ بِالْأُفُقِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
While he was in the higher [part of the] horizon.

And he revealed to His Servant what he revealed.
فَأَوْحَىٰٓ إِلَىٰ عَبْدِهِۦ مَآ أَوْحَىٰ

The heart did not lie [about] what it saw.
مَا كَذَبَ ٱلْفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَىٰٓ
Afatumaroonahu AAala ma yara
أَفَتُمَارُونَهُ عَلَىٰ مَا يَرَىٰ
So will you dispute with him over what he saw?
أَفَتُمَٰرُونَهُۥ عَلَىٰ مَا يَرَىٰ
Walaqad raahu nazlatan okhra
وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ نَزْلَةً أُخْرَىٰ
And he certainly saw him in another descent
وَلَقَدْ رَءَاهُ نَزْلَةً أُخْرَىٰ
AAinda sidrati almuntaha
عِندَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنتَهَىٰ

Ith yaghsha alssidrata ma yaghsha
إِذْ يَغْشَى السِّدْرَةَ مَا يَغْشَىٰ
When there covered the Lote Tree that which covered [it].
إِذْ يَغْشَى ٱلسِّدْرَةَ مَا يَغْشَىٰ
Ma zagha albasaru wama tagha
مَا زَاغَ الْبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغَىٰ
The sight [of the Prophet] did not swerve, nor did it transgress [its limit].
مَا زَاغَ ٱلْبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغَىٰ
Laqad raa min ayati rabbihi alkubra
لَقَدْ رَأَىٰ مِنْ آيَاتِ رَبِّهِ الْكُبْرَىٰ
He certainly saw of the greatest signs of his Lord.
لَقَدْ رَأَىٰ مِنْ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰٓ
Afaraaytumu allata waalAAuzza
أَفَرَأَيْتُمُ اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّىٰ

Wamanata alththalithata alokhra
وَمَنَاةَ الثَّالِثَةَ الْأُخْرَىٰ

Tilka ithan qismatun deeza
تِلْكَ إِذًا قِسْمَةٌ ضِيزَىٰ

They are not but [mere] names you have named them - you and your forefathers - for which Allah has sent down no authority. They follow not except assumption and what [their] souls desire, and there has already come to them from their Lord guidance.
إِنْ هِىَ إِلَّآ أَسْمَآءٌ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَآ أَنتُمْ وَءَابَآؤُكُم مَّآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَٰنٍ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهْوَى ٱلْأَنفُسُ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّن رَّبِّهِمُ ٱلْ
Am lilinsani ma tamanna

Or is there for man whatever he wishes?
أَمْ لِلْإِنسَٰنِ مَا تَمَنَّىٰ
Falillahi alakhiratu waaloola
فَلِلَّهِ الْآخِرَةُ وَالْأُولَىٰ
Rather, to Allah belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
فَلِلَّهِ ٱلْءَاخِرَةُ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ

And how many angels there are in the heavens whose intercession will not avail at all except [only] after Allah has permitted [it] to whom He wills and approves.
وَكَم مِّن مَّلَكٍ فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ لَا تُغْنِى شَفَٰعَتُهُمْ شَيْـًٔا إِلَّا مِنۢ بَعْدِ أَن يَأْذَنَ ٱللَّهُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ وَيَرْضَىٰٓ

Indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter name the angels female names,
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْءَاخِرَةِ لَيُسَمُّونَ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ تَسْمِيَةَ ٱلْأُنثَىٰ

And they have thereof no knowledge. They follow not except assumption, and indeed, assumption avails not against the truth at all.
وَمَا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَإِنَّ ٱلظَّنَّ لَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ شَيْـًٔا

So turn away from whoever turns his back on Our message and desires not except the worldly life.
فَأَعْرِضْ عَن مَّن تَوَلَّىٰ عَن ذِكْرِنَا وَلَمْ يُرِدْ إِلَّا ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا

That is their sum of knowledge. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who strays from His way, and He is most knowing of who is guided.
ذَٰلِكَ مَبْلَغُهُم مِّنَ ٱلْعِلْمِ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنِ ٱهْتَدَىٰ

And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth - that He may recompense those who do evil with [the penalty of] what they have done and recompense those who do good with the best [reward] -
وَلِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ لِيَجْزِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسَٰٓـُٔوا۟ بِمَا عَمِلُوا۟ وَيَجْزِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا۟ بِٱلْحُسْنَى

Those who avoid the major sins and immoralities, only [committing] slight ones. Indeed, your Lord is vast in forgiveness. He was most knowing of you when He produced you from the earth and when you were fetuses in the wombs of your mothers. So do not claim yourselves to be pure; He is most knowing of who fears Him.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَجْتَنِبُونَ كَبَٰٓئِرَ ٱلْإِثْمِ وَٱلْفَوَٰحِشَ إِلَّا ٱللَّمَمَ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ وَٰسِعُ ٱلْمَغْفِرَةِ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِكُمْ إِذْ أَنشَأَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِذْ أَنتُمْ أَجِنَّةٌ فِى بُطُونِ أُمَّه
