الجن

1 Qul oohiya ilayya annahu istamaAAa nafarun mina aljinni faqaloo inna samiAAna quranan AAajaban

1 Say: It has been revealed to me that a party of the jinn listened, and they said: Surely we have heard a wonderful Quran,

2 Yahdee ila alrrushdi faamanna bihi walan nushrika birabbina ahadan

2 Guiding to the right way, so we believe in it, and we will not set up any one with our Lord:

3 Waannahu taAAala jaddu rabbina ma ittakhatha sahibatan wala waladan

3 And that He - - exalted be the majesty of our Lord - - has not taken a consort, nor a son:

4 Waannahu kana yaqoolu safeehuna AAala Allahi shatatan

4 And that the foolish amongst us used to forge extravagant things against Allah:

5 Waanna thananna an lan taqoola alinsu waaljinnu AAala Allahi kathiban

5 And that we thought that men and jinn did not utter a lie against Allah:

6 Waannahu kana rijalun mina alinsi yaAAoothoona birijalin mina aljinni fazadoohum rahaqan

6 And that persons from among men used to seek refuge with persons from among jinn, so they increased them in wrongdoing:

7 Waannahum thannoo kama thanantum an lan yabAAatha Allahu ahadan

7 And that they thought as you think, that Allah would not raise anyone:

8 Waanna lamasna alssamaa fawajadnaha muliat harasan shadeedan washuhuban

8 And that we sought to reach heaven, but we found it filled with strong guards and flaming stars.

9 Waanna kunna naqAAudu minha maqaAAida lilssamAAi faman yastamiAAi alana yajid lahu shihaban rasadan

9 And that we used to sit in some of the sitting - places thereof to steal a hearing, but he who would (try to) listen now would find a flame lying in wait for him:

10 Waanna la nadree asharrun oreeda biman fee alardi am arada bihim rabbuhum rashadan

10 And that we know not whether evil is meant for those who are on earth or whether their Lord means to bring them good:

11 Waanna minna alssalihoona waminna doona thalika kunna taraiqa qidadan

11 And that some of us are good and others of us are below that: we are sects following different ways:

12 Wanna thananna an lan nuAAjiza Allaha fee alardi walan nuAAjizahu haraban

12 And that we know that we cannot escape Allah in the earth, nor can we escape Him by flight:

13 Waanna lamma samiAAna alhuda amanna bihi faman yumin birabbihi fala yakhafu bakhsan wala rahaqan

13 And that when we heard the guidance, we believed in it; so whoever believes in his Lord, he should neither fear loss nor being overtaken (by disgrace):

14 Waanna minna almuslimoona waminna alqasitoona faman aslama faolaika taharraw rashadan

14 And that some of us are those who submit, and some of us are the deviators; so whoever submits, these aim at the right way:

15 Waama alqasitoona fakanoo lijahannama hataban

15 And as to the deviators, they are fuel of hell:

16 Waallawi istaqamoo AAala alttareeqati laasqaynahum maan ghadaqan

16 And that if they should keep to the (right) way, We would certainly give them to drink of abundant water,

17 Linaftinahum feehi waman yuAArid AAan thikri rabbihi yaslukhu AAathaban saAAadan

17 So that We might try them with respect to it; and whoever turns aside from the reminder of his Lord, He will make him enter into an afflicting chastisement:

18 Waanna almasajida lillahi fala tadAAoo maAAa Allahi ahadan

18 And that the mosques are Allah's, therefore call not upon any one with Allah:

19 Waannahu lamma qama AAabdu Allahi yadAAoohu kadoo yakoonoona AAalayhi libadan

19 And that when the servant of Allah stood up calling upon Him, they wellnigh crowded him (to death).

20 Qul innama adAAoo rabbee wala oshriku bihi ahadan

20 Say: I only call upon my Lord, and I do not associate any one with Him.

21 Qul innee la amliku lakum darran wala rashadan

21 Say: I do not control for you evil or good.

22 Qul innee lan yujeeranee mina Allahi ahadun walan ajida min doonihi multahadan

22 Say: Surely no one can protect me against Allah, nor can I find besides Him any place of refuge:

23 Illa balaghan mina Allahi warisalatihi waman yaAAsi Allaha warasoolahu fainna lahu nara jahannama khalideena feeha abadan

23 (It is) only a delivering (of communications) from Allah and His messages; and whoever disobeys Allah and His Apostle surely he shall have the fire of hell to abide therein for a long time.

24 Hatta itha raaw ma yooAAadoona fasayaAAlamoona man adAAafu nasiran waaqallu AAadadan

24 Until when they see what they are threatened with, then shall they know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in number.

25 Qul in adree aqareebun ma tooAAadoona am yajAAalu lahu rabbee amadan

25 Say: I do not know whether that with which you are threatened be nigh or whether my Lord will appoint for it a term:

26 AAalimu alghaybi fala yuthhiru AAala ghaybihi ahadan

26 The Knower of the unseen! so He does not reveal His secrets to any,

27 Illa mani irtada min rasoolin fainnahu yasluku min bayni yadayhi wamin khalfihi rasadan

27 Except to him whom He chooses as an apostle; for surely He makes a guard to march before him and after him,

28 LiyaAAlama an qad ablaghoo risalati rabbihim waahata bima ladayhim waahsa kulla shayin AAadadan

28 So that He may know that they have truly delivered the messages of their Lord, and He encompasses what is with them and He records the number of all things.
