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

6 Save from their wives or the (slaves) that their right hands possess, for then they are not blameworthy,

7 But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors;

10 These are they who are the heirs,

10 These are the heirs

11 Who shall inherit the Firdaus (Paradise). They shall dwell therein forever.

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

11 Who will inherit paradise. There they will abide.

12 And indeed We created man (Adam) out of an extract of clay (water and earth).

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

12 Verily We created man from a product of wet earth;

13 Thereafter We made him (the offspring of Adam) as a Nutfah (mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) in a safe lodging (womb of the woman).

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

13 Then placed him as a drop (of seed) in a safe lodging;

14 Then We made the Nutfah into a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood), then We made the clot into a little lump of flesh, then We made out of that little lump of flesh bones, then We clothed the bones with flesh, and then We brought it forth as another creation. So Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators.

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.

14 Then fashioned We the drop a clot, then fashioned We the clot a little lump, then fashioned We the little lump bones, then clothed the bones with flesh, and then produced it as another creation. So blessed be Allah, the Best of creators!

15 After that, surely, you will die.

15 Then after that you will most surely die.

15 Then lo! after that ye surely die.

16 Then (again), surely, you will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection.

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

16 Then lo! on the Day of Resurrection ye are raised (again).

17 And indeed We have created above you seven heavens (one over the other), and We are never unaware of the creation.

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

17 And We have created above you seven paths, and We are never unmindful of creation.

18 And We sent down from the sky water (rain) in (due) measure, and We gave it lodging in the earth, and verily, We are Able to take it away.

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.

18 And we send down from the sky water in measure, and We give it lodging in the earth, and lo! We are Able to withdraw it.

19 Then We brought forth for you therewith gardens of date-palms and grapes, wherein is much fruit for you, and whereof you eat.

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;

19 Then We produce for you therewith gardens of date - palms and grapes, wherein is much fruit for you and whereof ye eat;

20 And a tree (olive) that springs forth from Mount Sinai, that grows (produces) oil, and (it is a) relish for the eaters.

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

20 And a tree that springeth forth from Mount Sinai that groweth oil and relish for the eaters.

21 And verily in the cattle there is indeed a lesson for you. We give you to drink (milk) of that which is in their bellies. And there are, in them, numerous (other) benefits for you, and of them you eat.

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,

21 And lo! in the cattle there is verily a lesson for you. We give you to drink of that which is in their bellies, and many uses have ye in them, and of them do ye eat;

22 And on them, and on ships you are carried.

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

22 And on them and on the ship ye are carried.

23 And indeed We sent Nuh (Noah) to his people, and he said: "O my people! Worship Allah! You have no other Ilah (God) but Him (Islamic Monotheism). Will you not then be afraid (of Him i.e. of His punishment because of worshipping others besides Him)?"

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)?

23 And We verily sent Noah unto his folk, and he said: O my people! Serve Allah. Ye have no other God save Him. Will ye not ward off (evil) ?

24 But the chiefs of his people who disbelieved said: "He is no more than a human being like you, he seeks to make himself superior to you. Had Allah willed, He surely could have sent down angels. Never did we hear such a thing among our fathers of old.

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:

24 But the chieftains of his folk, who disbelieved, said: This is only a mortal like you who would make himself superior to you. Had Allah willed, He surely could have sent down angels. We heard not of this in the case of our fathers of old.

25 "He is only a man in whom is madness, so wait for him a while."

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

25 He is only a man in whom is a madness, so watch him for a while.

26 [Nuh (Noah)] said: "O my Lord! Help me because they deny me."

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

26 He said: My Lord! Help me because they deny me.

27 So We revealed to him (saying): "Construct the ship under Our Eyes and under Our Revelation (guidance). Then, when Our Command comes, and water gushes forth from the oven, take on board of each kind two (male and female), and your family, except those thereof against whom the Word has already gone forth. And address Me not in favour of those who have done wrong. Verily, they are to be drowned.

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.

27 Then We inspired in him, saying: Make the ship under Our eyes and Our inspiration. Then, when Our command cometh and the oven gusheth water, introduce therein of every (kind) two spouses, and thy household save him thereof against whom the Word hath already gone forth. And plead not with Me on behalf of those who have done wrong. Lo! they will be drowned.

28 And when you have embarked on the ship, you and whoever is with you, then say: "All the praises and thanks be to Allah, Who has saved us from the people who are Zalimun (i.e. oppressors, wrong-doers, polytheists, those who join others in worship with Allah).

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:

28 And when thou art on board the ship, thou and whoso is with thee, then say: Praise be to Allah Who hath saved us from the wrongdoing folk!

29 And say: "My Lord! Cause me to land at a blessed landing-place, for You are the Best of those who bring to land."

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

29 And say: My Lord! Cause me to land at a blessed landing - place, for Thou art Best of all who bring to land.

30 Verily, in this [what We did as regards drowning of the people of Nuh (Noah)], there are indeed Ayat (proofs, evidence, lessons, signs, etc. for men to understand), for sure We are ever putting (men) to the test.

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

30 Lo! herein verily are portents, for lo! We are ever putting (mankind) to the test.

31 Then, after them, We created another generation.

31 Then We raised up after them another generation.

31 Then, after them, We brought forth another generation;

32 And We sent to them a Messenger from among themselves (saying): "Worship Allah! You have no other Ilah (God) but Him. Will you not then be afraid (of Him i.e. of His punishment because of worshipping others besides Him)?"

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)?

32 And we sent among them a messenger of their own, saying: Serve Allah, Ye have no other God save Him. Will ye not ward off (evil) ?

33 And the chiefs of his people who disbelieved and denied the Meeting in the Hereafter, and whom We had given the luxuries and comforts of this life, said: "He is no more than a human being like you, he eats of that which you eat, and drinks of what you drink.

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.

33 And the chieftains of his folk, who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter, and whom We had made soft in the life of the world, said: This is only a mortal like you, who eateth of that whereof ye eat and drinketh of that ye drink.

34 "If you were to obey a human being like yourselves, then verily you indeed would be losers.

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

34 If ye were to obey a mortal like yourselves, then, lo! ye surely would be losers.

35 "Does he promise you that when you have died and have become dust and bones, you shall come out alive (resurrected)?

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

35 Doth he promise you that you, when ye are dead and have become dust and bones, will (again) be brought forth ?

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

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

36 Begone, begone, with that which ye are promised!

37 "There is nothing but our life of this world! We die and we live! And we are not going to be resurrected!

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

37 There is naught but our life of the world; we die and we live, and we shall not be raised (again).

38 "He is only a man who has invented a lie against Allah, and we are not going to believe in him."

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

38 He is only a man who hath invented a lie about Allah. We are not going to put faith in him.

39 He said: "O my Lord! Help me because they deny me."

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

39 He said: My Lord! Help me because they deny me.

40 (Allah) said: "In a little while, they are sure to be regretful."

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

40 He said: In a little while they surely will become repentant.

41 So As-Saihah (torment - awful cry) overtook them in truth (with justice), and We made them as rubbish of dead plants. So away with the people who are Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, disobedient to His Messengers).

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

41 So the (Awful) Cry overtook them rightfully, and We made them like as wreckage (that a torrent hurleth). A far removal for wrongdoing folk!

42 Then, after them, We created other generations.

42 Then We raised after them other generations.

42 Then after them We brought forth other generations.

43 No nation can advance their term, nor can they delay it.

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

43 No nation can outstrip its term, nor yet postpone it.

44 Then We sent Our Messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation their Messenger, they denied him; so We made them follow one another (to destruction), and We made them as Ahadith (the true stories for mankind to learn a lesson from them). So away with a people who believe not!

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!

44 Then We sent our messengers one after another. Whenever its messenger came unto a nation they denied him; so We caused them to follow one another (to disaster) and We made them bywords. A far removal for folk who believe not!

45 Then We sent Musa (Moses) and his brother Harun‎‎ (Aaron), with Our Ayat (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and manifest authority,

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

45 Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our tokens and a clear warrant

46 To Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his chiefs, but they behaved insolently and they were people self-exalting (by disobeying their Lord, and exalting themselves over and above the Messenger of Allah).

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

46 Unto Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they scorned (them) and they were despotic folk.

47 They said: "Shall we believe in two men like ourselves, and their people are obedient to us with humility (and we use them to serve us as we like)."

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

47 And they said: Shall we put faith in two mortals like ourselves, and whose folk are servile unto us ?

48 So they denied them both [Musa (Moses) and Harun (Aaron)] and became of those who were destroyed.

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

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

49 And indeed We gave Musa (Moses) the Scripture, that they may be guided.

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

49 And We verily gave Moses the Scripture, that haply they might go aright.

50 And We made the son of Maryam (Mary) and his mother as a sign, and We gave them refuge on high ground, a place of rest, security and flowing streams.

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.

50 And We made the son of Mary and his mother a portent, and We gave them refuge on a height, a place of flocks and watersprings.

51 O (you) Messengers! Eat of the Tayyibat [all kinds of Halal foods which Allah has made lawful (meat of slaughtered eatable animals, milk products, fats, vegetables, fruits, etc.] and do righteous deeds. Verily! I am Well-Acquainted with what you do.

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

51 O ye messengers! Eat of the good things, and do right. Lo! I am Aware of what ye do.

52 And verily this your religion (of Islamic Monotheism) is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear (keep your duty to) Me.

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

52 And lo! this your religion is one religion and I am your Lord, so keep your duty unto Me.

53 But they (men) have broken their religion among them into sects, each group rejoicing in what is with it (as its beliefs).

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

53 But they (mankind) have broken their religion among them into sects, each group rejoicing in its tenets.

54 So leave them in their error for a time.

54 Therefore leave them in their overwhelming ignorance till

54 So leave them in their error till a time.

55 Do they think that in wealth and children with which We enlarge them

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

55 Think they that in the wealth and sons wherewith We provide them

56 We hasten unto them with good things. Nay, [it is a Fitnah (trial) in this worldly life so that they will have no share of good things in the Hereafter] but they perceive not. [Tafsir Al-Qurtubi].

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

56 We hasten unto them with good things ? Nay, but they perceive not.

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

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

57 Lo! those who go in awe for fear of their Lord.

58 And those who believe in the Ayat (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of their Lord;

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

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

59 And those who join not anyone (in worship) as partners with their Lord;

59 And those who do not associate (aught) with their Lord,

59 And those who ascribe not partners unto their Lord,

60 And those who give that (their charity) which they give (and also do other good deeds) with their hearts full of fear (whether their alms and charities have been accepted or not), because they are sure to return to their Lord (for reckoning).

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

60 And those who give that which they give with hearts afraid because they are about to return unto their Lord,

61 It is these who hasten in the good deeds, and they are foremost in them [e.g. offering the compulsory Salat (prayers) in their (early) stated, fixed times and so on].

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

61 These race for the good things, and they shall win them in the race.

62 And We task not any person except according to his capacity, and with Us is a Record which speaks the truth, and they will not be wronged.

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.

62 And we task not any soul beyond its scope, and with Us is a Record which speaketh the truth, and they will not be wronged.

63 Nay, but their hearts are covered from (understanding) this (the Qur'an), and they have other (evil) deeds, besides, which they are doing.

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

63 Nay, but their hearts are in ignorance of this (Qur'an), and they have other works, besides, which they are doing;

64 Until when We seize those of them who lead a luxurious life with punishment: behold they make humble invocation with a loud voice.

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

64 Till when We grasp their luxurious ones with the punishment, behold! they supplicate.

65 Invoke not loudly this day! Certainly you shall not be helped by Us.

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

65 Supplicate not this day! Assuredly ye will not be helped by Us.

66 Indeed My Verses used to be recited to you, but you used to turn back on your heels (denying them, and refusing with hatred to listen to them).

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

66 My revelations were recited unto you, but ye used to turn back on your heels,

67 In pride (they - Quraish pagans and polytheists of Makkah used to feel proud that they are the dwellers of Makkah sanctuary - Haram), talking evil about it (the Qur'an) by night.

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

67 In scorn thereof. Nightly did ye rave together.

68 Have they not pondered over the Word (of Allah, i.e. what is sent down to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم), or has there come to them what had not come to their fathers of old?

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?

68 Have they not pondered the Word, or hath that come unto them which came not unto their fathers of old ?

69 Or is it that they did not recognize their Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) so they deny him?

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

69 Or know they not their messenger, and so reject him ?

70 Or say they: There is madness in him? Nay, but he brought them the truth [i.e. Tauhid: Worshipping Allah Alone in all aspects, the Qur'an and the religion of Islam], but most of them (the disbelievers) are averse to the truth.

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.

70 Or say they: There is a madness in him ? Nay, but he bringeth them the Truth; and most of them are haters of the Truth.

71 And if the truth had been in accordance with their desires, verily, the heavens and the earth, and whosoever is therein would have been corrupted! Nay, We have brought them their reminder, but they turn away from their reminder.

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.

71 And if the Truth had followed their desires, verily the heavens and the earth and whosoever is therein had been corrupted. Nay, We have brought them their Reminder, but from their Reminder they now turn away.

72 Or is it that you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) ask them for some wages? But the recompense of your Lord is better, and He is the Best of those who give sustenance.

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.

72 Or dost thou ask of them (O Muhammad) any tribute ? But the bounty of thy Lord is better, for He is Best of all who make provision.

73 And certainly, you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) call them to the Straight Path (true religion - Islamic Monotheism).

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

73 And lo! thou summonest them indeed unto a straight path.

74 And verily, those who believe not in the Hereafter are indeed deviating far astray from the Path (true religion - Islamic Monotheism).

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

74 And lo! those who believe not in the Hereafter are indeed astray from the path.

75 And though We had mercy on them and removed the distress which is on them, still they would obstinately persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.

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

75 Though We had mercy on them and relieved them of the harm afflicting them, they still would wander blindly on in their contumacy.

76 And indeed We seized them with punishment, but they humbled not themselves to their Lord, nor did they invoke (Allah) with submission to Him.

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

76 Already have We grasped them with punishment, but they humble not themselves unto their Lord, nor do they pray,

77 Until, when We open for them the gate of severe punishment, then lo! they will be plunged into destruction with deep regrets, sorrows and in despair.

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

77 Until, when We open for them the gate of extreme punishment, behold! they are aghast thereat.

78 It is He Who has created for you (the sense of) hearing (ears), eyes (sight), and hearts (understanding). Little thanks you give.

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

78 He it is Who hath created for you ears and eyes and hearts. Small thanks give ye!

79 And it is He Who has created you on the earth, and to Him you shall be gathered back.

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

79 And He it is Who hath sown you broadcast in the earth, and unto Him ye will be gathered.

80 And it is He Who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of night and day. Will you not then understand?

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?

80 And He it is Who giveth life and causeth death, and His is the difference of night and day. Have ye then no sense ?

81 Nay, but they say the like of what the men of old said.

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

81 Nay, but they say the like of that which said the men of old;

82 They said: "When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we be resurrected indeed?

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

82 They say: When we are dead and have become (mere) dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised again ?

83 "Verily, this we have been promised - we and our fathers before (us)! This is only the tales of the ancients!"

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

83 We were already promised this, we and our forefathers. Lo! this is naught but fables of the men of old.

84 Say: "Whose is the earth and whosoever is therein? If you know!"

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

84 Say: Unto Whom (belongeth) the earth and whosoever is therein, if ye have knowledge ?

85 They will say: "It is Allah's!" Say: "Will you not then remember?"

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

85 They will say: Unto Allah. Say: Will ye not then remember ?

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

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

86 Say: Who is Lord of the seven heavens, and Lord of the Tremendous Throne ?

87 They will say: "Allah." Say: "Will you not then fear Allah (believe in His Oneness, obey Him, believe in the Resurrection and Recompense for every good or bad deed)?"

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

87 They will say: Unto Allah (all that belongeth). Say: Will ye not then keep duty (unto Him) ?

88 Say "In Whose Hand is the sovereignty of everything (i.e. treasures of each and everything)? And He protects (all), while against Whom there is no protector, (i.e. if Allah saves anyone none can punish or harm him, and if Allah punishes or harms anyone none can save him), if you know?" [Tafsir Al-Qurtubi]

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?

88 Say: In Whose hand is the dominion over all things and He protecteth, while against Him there is no protection, if ye have knowledge ?

89 They will say: "(All that belongs) to Allah." Say: "How then are you deceived and turn away from the truth?"

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

89 They will say: Unto Allah (all that belongeth). Say: How then are ye bewitched ?

90 Nay, but We have brought them the truth (Islamic Monotheism), and verily, they (disbelievers) are liars.

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

90 Nay, but We have brought them the Truth, and lo! they are liars.

91 No son (or offspring) did Allah beget, nor is there any ilah (god) along with Him. (If there had been many gods), then each god would have taken away what he had created, and some would have tried to overcome others! Glorified be Allah above all that they attribute to Him!
