Chapter 37, 182 verses
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالصَّافَّاتِ صَفًّا
By those who range themselves in ranks,
Waalssaffati saffan
وَٱلصَّٰٓفَّٰتِ صَفًّا
فَالزَّاجِرَاتِ زَجْرًا
And so are strong in repelling (evil),
Faalzzajirati zajran
فَٱلزَّٰجِرَٰتِ زَجْرًا
فَالتَّالِيَاتِ ذِكْرًا
And thus proclaim the Message (of Allah)!
Faalttaliyati thikran
فَٱلتَّٰلِيَٰتِ ذِكْرًا
إِنَّ إِلَٰهَكُمْ لَوَاحِدٌ
Verily, verily, your Allah is one! -
Inna ilahakum lawahidun
إِنَّ إِلَٰهَكُمْ لَوَٰحِدٌ
رَّبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَرَبُّ الْمَشَارِقِ
Lord of the heavens and of the earth and all between them, and Lord of every point at the rising of the sun!
Rabbu alssamawati waalardi wama baynahuma warabbu almashariqi
رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَرَبُّ ٱلْمَشَٰرِقِ
إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ الْكَوَاكِبِ
We have indeed decked the lower heaven with beauty (in) the stars, -
Inna zayyanna alssamaa alddunya bizeenatin alkawakibi
إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا ٱلسَّمَآءَ ٱلدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ ٱلْكَوَاكِبِ
وَحِفْظًا مِّن كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ مَّارِدٍ
(For beauty) and for guard against all obstinate rebellious evil spirits,
Wahifthan min kulli shaytanin maridin
وَحِفْظًا مِّن كُلِّ شَيْطَٰنٍ مَّارِدٍ
لَّا يَسَّمَّعُونَ إِلَى الْمَلَإِ الْأَعْلَىٰ وَيُقْذَفُونَ مِن كُلِّ جَانِبٍ
(So) they should not strain their ears in the direction of the Exalted Assembly but be cast away from every side,
La yassammaAAoona ila almalai alaAAla wayuqthafoona min kulli janibin
لَّا يَسَّمَّعُونَ إِلَى ٱلْمَلَإِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ وَيُقْذَفُونَ مِن كُلِّ جَانِبٍ
دُحُورًا ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَاصِبٌ
Repulsed, for they are under a perpetual penalty,
Duhooran walahum AAathabun wasibun
دُحُورًا وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَاصِبٌ
إِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ الْخَطْفَةَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ
Except such as snatch away something by stealth, and they are pursued by a flaming fire, of piercing brightness.
Illa man khatifa alkhatfata faatbaAAahu shihabun thaqibun
إِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ ٱلْخَطْفَةَ فَأَتْبَعَهُۥ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ
فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَهُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَم مَّنْ خَلَقْنَا ۚ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَاهُم مِّن طِينٍ لَّازِبٍ
Just ask their opinion: are they the more difficult to create, or the (other) beings We have created? Them have We created out of a sticky clay!
Faistaftihim ahum ashaddu khalqan am man khalaqna inna khalaqnahum min teenin lazibin
فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَهُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَم مَّنْ خَلَقْنَآ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَٰهُم مِّن طِينٍ لَّازِبٍۭ

Truly dost thou marvel, while they ridicule,
Bal AAajibta wayaskharoona
بَلْ عَجِبْتَ وَيَسْخَرُونَ
وَإِذَا ذُكِّرُوا لَا يَذْكُرُونَ
And, when they are admonished, pay no heed, -
Waitha thukkiroo la yathkuroona
وَإِذَا ذُكِّرُوا۟ لَا يَذْكُرُونَ
وَإِذَا رَأَوْا آيَةً يَسْتَسْخِرُونَ
And, when they see a Sign, turn it to mockery,
Waitha raaw ayatan yastaskhiroona
وَإِذَا رَأَوْا۟ ءَايَةً يَسْتَسْخِرُونَ
وَقَالُوا إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ
And say, "This is nothing but evident sorcery!
Waqaloo in hatha illa sihrun mubeenun
وَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ
أَإِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَامًا أَإِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
"What! when we die, and become dust and bones, shall we (then) be raised up (again)
Aitha mitna wakunna turaban waAAithaman ainna lamabAAoothoona
أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ

Say thou: "Yea, and ye shall then be humiliated (on account of your evil)."
Qul naAAam waantum dakhiroona
قُلْ نَعَمْ وَأَنتُمْ دَٰخِرُونَ
فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ زَجْرَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَإِذَا هُمْ يَنظُرُونَ
Then it will be a single (compelling) cry; and behold, they will begin to see!
Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun faitha hum yanthuroona
فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ فَإِذَا هُمْ يَنظُرُونَ
وَقَالُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا هَٰذَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ
They will say, "Ah! Woe to us! This is the Day of Judgment!"
Waqaloo ya waylana hatha yawmu alddeeni

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ
For they, when they were told that there is no god except Allah, would puff themselves up with Pride,
Innahum kanoo itha qeela lahum la ilaha illa Allahu yastakbiroona
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوٓا۟ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ

But it will be no more than the retribution of (the Evil) that ye have wrought; -
Wama tujzawna illa ma kuntum taAAmaloona

طَلْعُهَا كَأَنَّهُ رُءُوسُ الشَّيَاطِينِ
The shoots of its fruit - stalks are like the heads of devils:

فَإِنَّهُمْ لَآكِلُونَ مِنْهَا فَمَالِئُونَ مِنْهَا الْبُطُونَ
Truly they will eat thereof and fill their bellies therewith.

Then shall their return be to the (Blazing) Fire.
Thumma inna marjiAAahum laila aljaheemi

إِنَّهُمْ أَلْفَوْا آبَاءَهُمْ ضَالِّينَ
Truly they found their fathers on the wrong Path;

So they (too) were rushed down on their footsteps!

وَلَقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ أَكْثَرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
And truly before them, many of the ancients went astray; -
Walaqad dalla qablahum aktharu alawwaleena
وَلَقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ أَكْثَرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا فِيهِم مُّنذِرِينَ
But We sent aforetime, among them, (messengers) to admonish them; -
Walaqad arsalna feehim munthireena
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا فِيهِم مُّنذِرِينَ
فَانظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُنذَرِينَ
Then see what was the end of those who were admonished (but heeded not), -
Faonthur kayfa kana AAaqibatu almunthareena
فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ
إِلَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
Except the sincere (and devoted) Servants of Allah.
Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
وَلَقَدْ نَادَانَا نُوحٌ فَلَنِعْمَ الْمُجِيبُونَ
(In the days of old), Noah cried to Us, and We are the best to hear prayer.
Walaqad nadana noohun falaniAAma almujeeboona
وَلَقَدْ نَادَىٰنَا نُوحٌ فَلَنِعْمَ ٱلْمُجِيبُونَ
وَنَجَّيْنَاهُ وَأَهْلَهُ مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيمِ
And We delivered him and his people from the Great Calamity,
Wanajjaynahu waahlahu mina alkarbi alAAatheemi
وَنَجَّيْنَٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُ هُمُ الْبَاقِينَ
And made his progeny to endure (on this earth);
WajaAAalna thurriyyatahu humu albaqeena
وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُۥ هُمُ ٱلْبَاقِينَ
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِي الْآخِرِينَ
And We left (this blessing) for him among generations to come in later times:
Watarakna AAalayhi fee alakhireena
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ
سَلَامٌ عَلَىٰ نُوحٍ فِي الْعَالَمِينَ
"Peace and salutation to Noah among the nations!"
Salamun AAala noohin fee alAAalameena
سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰ نُوحٍ فِى ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ
Thus indeed do we reward those who do right.
Inna kathalika najzee almuhsineena
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
إِنَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
For he was one of our believing Servants.
Innahu min AAibadina almumineena
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا الْآخَرِينَ
Then the rest we overwhelmed in the Flood.
Thumma aghraqna alakhareena
ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا ٱلْءَاخَرِينَ
۞ وَإِنَّ مِن شِيعَتِهِ لَإِبْرَاهِيمَ
Verily among those who followed his Way was Abraham.
Wainna min sheeAAatihi laibraheema
وَإِنَّ مِن شِيعَتِهِۦ لَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ
إِذْ جَاءَ رَبَّهُ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ
Behold! he approached his Lord with a sound heart.
Ith jaa rabbahu biqalbin saleemin
إِذْ جَآءَ رَبَّهُۥ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ
إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُونَ
Behold! he said to his father and to his people, "What is that which ye worship?
Ith qala liabeehi waqawmihi matha taAAbudoona
إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِۦ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُونَ

"Is it a falsehood - gods other than Allah - that ye desire?
Aifkan alihatan doona Allahi tureedoona
أَئِفْكًا ءَالِهَةً دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ
فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
"Then what is your idea about the Lord of the worlds?"
Fama thannukum birabbi alAAalameena
فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِي النُّجُومِ
Then did he cast a glance at the Stars.
Fanathara nathratan fee alnnujoomi
فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِى ٱلنُّجُومِ
فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ
And he said, "I am indeed sick (at heart)!"
Faqala innee saqeemun
فَقَالَ إِنِّى سَقِيمٌ
فَتَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِينَ
So they turned away from him, and departed.
Fatawallaw AAanhu mudbireena
فَتَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِينَ
فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰ آلِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ
Then did he turn to their gods and said, "will ye not eat (of the offerings before you)?...
Faragha ila alihatihim faqala ala takuloona
فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنطِقُونَ
"What is the matter with you that ye speak not (intelligently)?"
Ma lakum la tantiqoona
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنطِقُونَ
فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًا بِالْيَمِينِ
Then did he turn upon them, striking (them) with the right hand.
Faragha AAalayhim darban bialyameeni
فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًۢا بِٱلْيَمِينِ
فَأَقْبَلُوا إِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّونَ
Then came (the worshippers) with hurried steps, and faced (him).
Faaqbaloo ilayhi yaziffoona
فَأَقْبَلُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّونَ
قَالَ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَنْحِتُونَ
He said: "Worship ye that which ye have (yourselves) carved?
Qala ataAAbudoona ma tanhitoona
قَالَ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَنْحِتُونَ
وَاللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
"But Allah has created you and your handwork!"
WaAllahu khalaqakum wama taAAmaloona
وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
قَالُوا ابْنُوا لَهُ بُنْيَانًا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِي الْجَحِيمِ
They said, "Build him a furnace, and throw him into the blazing fire!"
Qaloo ibnoo lahu bunyanan faalqoohu fee aljaheemi
قَالُوا۟ ٱبْنُوا۟ لَهُۥ بُنْيَٰنًا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِى ٱلْجَحِيمِ
فَأَرَادُوا بِهِ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنَاهُمُ الْأَسْفَلِينَ
(This failing), they then sought a stratagem against him, but We made them the ones most humiliated!
Faaradoo bihi kaydan fajaAAalnahumu alasfaleena
فَأَرَادُوا۟ بِهِۦ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمُ ٱلْأَسْفَلِينَ
وَقَالَ إِنِّي ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّي سَيَهْدِينِ
He said: "I will go to my Lord! He will surely guide me!
Waqala innee thahibun ila rabbee sayahdeeni
وَقَالَ إِنِّى ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّى سَيَهْدِينِ
رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ
"O my Lord! Grant me a righteous (son)!"
Rabbi hab lee mina alssaliheena
رَبِّ هَبْ لِى مِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ
فَبَشَّرْنَاهُ بِغُلَامٍ حَلِيمٍ
So We gave him the good news of a boy ready to suffer and forbear.
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
Then, when (the son) reached (the age of) (serious) work with him, he said: "O my son! I see in vision that I offer thee in sacrifice: Now see what is thy view!" (The son) said: "O my father! Do as thou art commanded: thou will find me, if Allah so wills one practising Patience and Constancy!"
Falamma balagha maAAahu alssaAAya qala ya bunayya innee ara fee almanami annee athbahuka faonthur matha tara qala ya abati ifAAal ma tumaru satajidunee in shaa Allahu mina alssabireena

فَلَمَّا أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُ لِلْجَبِينِ
So when they had both submitted their wills (to Allah), and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (for sacrifice),
Falamma aslama watallahu liljabeeni
فَلَمَّآ أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلْجَبِينِ
وَنَادَيْنَاهُ أَن يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ
We called out to him "O Abraham!
Wanadaynahu an ya ibraheemu
وَنَٰدَيْنَٰهُ أَن يَٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ
قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ الرُّؤْيَا ۚ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ
"Thou hast already fulfilled the vision!" - thus indeed do We reward those who do right.
Qad saddaqta alrruya inna kathalika najzee almuhsineena
قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ ٱلرُّءْيَآ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ الْبَلَاءُ الْمُبِينُ
For this was obviously a trial -
Inna hatha lahuwa albalao almubeenu
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْبَلَٰٓؤُا۟ ٱلْمُبِينُ
وَفَدَيْنَاهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيمٍ
And We ransomed him with a momentous sacrifice:
Wafadaynahu bithibhin AAatheemin
وَفَدَيْنَٰهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيمٍ
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِي الْآخِرِينَ
And We left (this blessing) for him among generations (to come) in later times:
Watarakna AAalayhi fee alakhireena
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ
سَلَامٌ عَلَىٰ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
"Peace and salutation to Abraham!"
Salamun AAala ibraheema
سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ

Thus indeed do We reward those who do right.
Kathalika najzee almuhsineena
كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

For he was one of our believing Servants.
Innahu min AAibadina almumineena
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
وَبَشَّرْنَاهُ بِإِسْحَاقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ الصَّالِحِينَ
And We gave him the good news of Isaac - a prophet, - one of the Righteous.
Wabashsharnahu biishaqa nabiyyan mina alssaliheena
وَبَشَّرْنَٰهُ بِإِسْحَٰقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ

We blessed him and Isaac: but of their progeny are (some) that do right, and (some) that obviously do wrong, to their own souls.
Wabarakna AAalayhi waAAala ishaqa wamin thurriyyatihima muhsinun wathalimun linafsihi mubeenun

وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَارُونَ
Again (of old) We bestowed Our favour on Moses and Aaron,
Walaqad mananna AAala moosa waharoona
وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ
وَنَجَّيْنَاهُمَا وَقَوْمَهُمَا مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيمِ
And We delivered them and their people from (their) Great Calamity;
Wanajjaynahuma waqawmahuma mina alkarbi alAAatheemi
وَنَجَّيْنَٰهُمَا وَقَوْمَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
وَنَصَرْنَاهُمْ فَكَانُوا هُمُ الْغَالِبِينَ
And We helped them, so they overcame (their troubles);
Wanasarnahum fakanoo humu alghalibeena
وَنَصَرْنَٰهُمْ فَكَانُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبِينَ
وَآتَيْنَاهُمَا الْكِتَابَ الْمُسْتَبِينَ
And We gave them the Book which helps to make things clear;
Waataynahuma alkitaba almustabeena
وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُمَا ٱلْكِتَٰبَ ٱلْمُسْتَبِينَ
وَهَدَيْنَاهُمَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
And We guided them to the Straight Way.
Wahadaynahuma alssirata almustaqeema
وَهَدَيْنَٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِمَا فِي الْآخِرِينَ
And We left (this blessing) for them among generations (to come) in later times:
Watarakna AAalayhima fee alakhireena
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِمَا فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ

So also was Elias among those sent (by Us).
Wainna ilyasa lamina almursaleena

Behold, he said to his people, "Will ye not fear (Allah)?

"Will ye call upon Baal and forsake the Best of Creators, -

"Allah, your Lord and Cherisher and the Lord and Cherisher of your fathers of old?"

ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
But they rejected him, and they will certainly be called up (for punishment), -
Fakaththaboohu fainnahum lamuhdaroona
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
إِلَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
Except the sincere and devoted Servants of Allah (among them).

وَإِنَّ لُوطًا لَّمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ
So also was Lut among those sent (by Us).
Wainna lootan lamina almursaleena
وَإِنَّ لُوطًا لَّمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
إِذْ نَجَّيْنَاهُ وَأَهْلَهُ أَجْمَعِينَ
Behold, We delivered him and his adherents, all

إِذْ نَجَّيْنَٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ
إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِي الْغَابِرِينَ
Except an old woman who was among those who lagged behind:
Illa AAajoozan fee alghabireena
إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِى ٱلْغَٰبِرِينَ
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا الْآخَرِينَ
Then We destroyed the rest.
Thumma dammarna alakhareena
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْءَاخَرِينَ
وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ
Verily, ye pass by their (sites), by day -
Wainnakum latamurroona AAalayhim musbiheena
وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ

And by night: will ye not understand?
Wabiallayli afala taAAqiloona
وَبِٱلَّيْلِ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ
So also was Jonah among those sent (by Us).
Wainna yoonusa lamina almursaleena
وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ
When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden,
Ith abaqa ila alfulki almashhooni
إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ ٱلْمَشْحُونِ
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُدْحَضِينَ
He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned:
Fasahama fakana mina almudhadeena
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُدْحَضِينَ
فَالْتَقَمَهُ الْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame.
Failtaqamahu alhootu wahuwa muleemun
فَٱلْتَقَمَهُ ٱلْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
فَلَوْلَا أَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحِينَ
Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah,
Falawla annahu kana mina almusabbiheena
فَلَوْلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَبِّحِينَ
لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطْنِهِ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection.
Lalabitha fee batnihi ila yawmi yubAAathoona
لَلَبِثَ فِى بَطْنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
۞ فَنَبَذْنَاهُ بِالْعَرَاءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ
But We cast him forth on the naked shore in a state of sickness,
Fanabathnahu bialAAarai wahuwa saqeemun
فَنَبَذْنَٰهُ بِٱلْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ
وَأَنبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّن يَقْطِينٍ
And We caused to grow, over him, a spreading plant of the gourd kind.
Waanbatna AAalayhi shajaratan min yaqteenin
وَأَنۢبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّن يَقْطِينٍ
وَأَرْسَلْنَاهُ إِلَىٰ مِائَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ
And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred thousand (men) or more.
Waarsalnahu ila miati alfin aw yazeedoona
وَأَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِا۟ئَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ
فَآمَنُوا فَمَتَّعْنَاهُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍ
And they believed; so We permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while.
Faamanoo famattaAAnahum ila heenin
فَـَٔامَنُوا۟ فَمَتَّعْنَٰهُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍ
فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ الْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ الْبَنُونَ
Now ask them their opinion: Is it that thy Lord has (only) daughters, and they have sons? -
Faistaftihim alirabbika albanatu walahumu albanoona
فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ
أَمْ خَلَقْنَا الْمَلَائِكَةَ إِنَاثًا وَهُمْ شَاهِدُونَ
Or that We created the angels female, and they are witnesses (thereto)?
Am khalaqna almalaikata inathan wahum shahidoona
أَمْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثًا وَهُمْ شَٰهِدُونَ
أَلَا إِنَّهُم مِّنْ إِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُولُونَ
Is it not that they say, from their own invention,
Ala innahum min ifkihim layaqooloona
أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنْ إِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُولُونَ
وَلَدَ اللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَاذِبُونَ
"Allah has begotten children"? but they are liars!
Walada Allahu wainnahum lakathiboona
وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ
أَصْطَفَى الْبَنَاتِ عَلَى الْبَنِينَ
Did He (then) choose daughters rather than sons?
Astafa albanati AAala albaneena
أَصْطَفَى ٱلْبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلْبَنِينَ
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ
What is the matter with you? How judge ye?
Ma lakum kayfa tahkumoona
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ
أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
Will ye not then receive admonition?
Afala tathakkaroona
أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَانٌ مُّبِينٌ
Or have ye an authority manifest?
Am lakum sultanun mubeenun
أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَٰنٌ مُّبِينٌ
فَأْتُوا بِكِتَابِكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
Then bring ye your Book (of authority) if ye be truthful!
Fatoo bikitabikum in kuntum sadiqeena
فَأْتُوا۟ بِكِتَٰبِكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ

And they have invented a blood - relationship between Him and the Jinns: but the Jinns know (quite well) that they have indeed to appear (before his Judgment - Seat)!
WajaAAaloo baynahu wabayna aljinnati nasaban walaqad AAalimati aljinnatu innahum lamuhdaroona

سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
Glory to Allah! (He is free) from the things they ascribe (to Him)!
Subhana Allahi AAamma yasifoona
سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
إِلَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
Not (so do) the Servants of Allah, sincere and devoted.
Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
فَإِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ
For, verily, neither ye nor those ye worship -
