البروج

1 By the sky, (displaying) the Zodiacal Signs;

1 Waalssamai thati alburooji

2 By the promised Day (of Judgment);

2 Waalyawmi almawAAoodi

3 By one that witnesses, and the subject of the witness; -

3 Washahidin wamashhoodin

4 Woe to the makers of the pit (of fire),

4 Qutila ashabu alukhdoodi

5 Fire supplied (abundantly) with fuel:

5 Alnnari thati alwaqoodi

6 Behold! they sat over against the (fire),

6 Ith hum AAalayha quAAoodun

7 And they witnessed (all) that they were doing against the Believers.

7 Wahum AAala ma yafAAaloona bialmumineena shuhoodun

8 And they ill - treated them for no other reason than that they believed in Allah, Exalted in Power, Worthy of all Praise! -

8 Wama naqamoo minhum illa an yuminoo biAllahi alAAazeezi alhameedi

9 Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth! And Allah is Witness to all things.

9 Allathee lahu mulku alssamawati waalardi waAllahu AAala kulli shayin shaheedun

10 Those who persecute (or draw into temptation) the Believers, men and women, and do not turn in repentance, will have the Penalty of Hell: They will have the Penalty of the Burning Fire.

10 Inna allatheena fatanoo almumineena waalmuminati thumma lam yatooboo falahum AAathabu jahannama walahum AAathabu alhareeqi

11 For those who believe and do righteous deeds, will be Gardens; beneath which rivers flow: That is the great Salvation, (the fulfilment of all desires),

11 Inna allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum jannatun tajree min tahtiha alanharu thalika alfawzu alkabeeru

12 Truly strong is the Grip (and Power) of thy Lord.

12 Inna batsha rabbika lashadeedun

13 It is He Who creates from the very beginning, and He can restore (life).

13 Innahu huwa yubdio wayuAAeedu

14 And He is the Oft - Forgiving, Full of Loving - Kindness,

14 Wahuwa alghafooru alwadoodu

15 Lord of the Throne of Glory,

15 Thoo alAAarshi almajeedi

16 Doer (without let) of all that He intends.

16 FaAAAAalun lima yureedu

17 Has the story reached thee, of the forces -

17 Hal ataka hadeethu aljunoodi

18 Of Pharaoh and the Thamud?

18 FirAAawna wathamooda

19 And yet the Unbelievers (persist) in rejecting (the Truth)!

19 Bali allatheena kafaroo fee taktheebin

20 But Allah doth encompass them from behind!

20 WaAllahu min waraihim muheetun

21 Nay, this is a Glorious Qur'an,

21 Bal huwa quranun majeedun

22 (Inscribed) in a Tablet Preserved!

22 Fee lawhin mahfoothin
