Is it a falsehood - gods beside Allah - that ye desire ?
Aifkan alihatan doona Allahi tureedoona
أَئِفْكًا ءَالِهَةً دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ
فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
What then is your opinion of the Lord of the Worlds ?

قَالُوا ابْنُوا لَهُ بُنْيَانًا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِي الْجَحِيمِ
They said: Build for him a building and fling him in the red - hotfire.

So We gave him tidings of a gentle son.
Fabashsharnahu bighulamin haleemin
فَبَشَّرْنَٰهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ حَلِيمٍ
فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ السَّعْيَ قَالَ يَا بُنَيَّ إِنِّي أَرَىٰ فِي الْمَنَامِ أَنِّي أَذْبَحُكَ فَانظُرْ مَاذَا تَرَىٰ ۚ قَالَ يَا أَبَتِ افْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُ ۖ سَتَجِدُنِي إِن شَاءَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الصَّابِرِينَ
And when (his son) was old enough to walk with him, (Abraham) said: O my dear son, I have seen in a dream that I must sacrifice thee. So look, what thinkest thou ? He said: O my father! Do that which thou art commanded. Allah willing, thou shalt find me of the steadfast.

Then, when they had both surrendered (to Allah), and he had flung him down upon his face,
Falamma aslama watallahu liljabeeni
فَلَمَّآ أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلْجَبِينِ

Wainna lanahnu alssaffoona
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْمُسَبِّحُونَ
Lo! we, even we are they who hymn His praise
Wainna lanahnu almusabbihoona
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلْمُسَبِّحُونَ
وَإِن كَانُوا لَيَقُولُونَ
And indeed they used to say:
Wain kanoo layaqooloona
وَإِن كَانُوا۟ لَيَقُولُونَ
لَوْ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ
If we had but a reminder from the men of old
Law anna AAindana thikran mina alawwaleena
لَوْ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
We would be single - minded slaves of Allah.
Lakunna AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
فَكَفَرُوا بِهِ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
Yet (now that it is come) they disbelieve therein; but they will come to know.
Fakafaroo bihi fasawfa yaAAlamoona
فَكَفَرُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا الْمُرْسَلِينَ
And verily Our word went forth of old unto Our bondmen sent (to warn)
Walaqad sabaqat kalimatuna liAAibadina almursaleena
وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ الْمَنصُورُونَ
That they verily would be helped,
Innahum lahumu almansooroona
إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَنصُورُونَ
وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ الْغَالِبُونَ
And that Our host, they verily would be the victors.
Wainna jundana lahumu alghaliboona
وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبُونَ
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
So withdraw from them (O Muhammad) awhile,
Fatawalla AAanhum hatta heenin
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
وَأَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
And watch, for they will (soon) see.
Waabsirhum fasawfa yubsiroona
وَأَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
Would they hasten on Our doom ?
AfabiAAathabina yastaAAjiloona
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَاءَ صَبَاحُ الْمُنذَرِينَ
But when it cometh home to them, then it will be a hapless morn for those who have been warned.
Faitha nazala bisahatihim fasaa sabahu almunthareena
فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ
وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
Withdraw from them awhile
Watawalla AAanhum hatta heenin
وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
وَأَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
And watch, for they will (soon) see.
Waabsir fasawfa yubsiroona
وَأَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
سُبْحَانَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ الْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
Glorified be thy Lord, the Lord of Majesty, from that which they attribute (unto Him)
Subhana rabbika rabbi alAAizzati AAamma yasifoona
سُبْحَٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
وَسَلَامٌ عَلَى الْمُرْسَلِينَ
And peace be unto those sent (to warn).
Wasalamun AAala almursaleena
وَسَلَٰمٌ عَلَى ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
And praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds!
Waalhamdu lillahi rabbi alAAalameena
وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
