আস্ সাফফাত (সফে দাঁড়ানো)

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By those who set the ranks in battle order

1 Waalssaffati saffan

2 And those who drive away (the wicked) with reproof

2 Faalzzajirati zajran

3 And those who read (the Word) for a reminder,

3 Faalttaliyati thikran

4 Lo! thy Lord is surely One;

4 Inna ilahakum lawahidun

5 Lord of the heavens and of the earth and all that is between them, and Lord of the sun's risings.

5 Rabbu alssamawati waalardi wama baynahuma warabbu almashariqi

6 Lo! We have adorned the lowest heaven with an ornament, the planets;

6 Inna zayyanna alssamaa alddunya bizeenatin alkawakibi

7 With security from every froward devil.

7 Wahifthan min kulli shaytanin maridin

8 They cannot listen to the Highest Chiefs for they are pelted from every side,

8 La yassammaAAoona ila almalai alaAAla wayuqthafoona min kulli janibin

9 Outcast, and theirs is a perpetual torment;

9 Duhooran walahum AAathabun wasibun

10 Save him who snatcheth a fragment, and there pursueth him a piercing flame.

10 Illa man khatifa alkhatfata faatbaAAahu shihabun thaqibun

11 Then ask them (O Muhammad): Are they stronger as a creation, or those (others) whom we have created ? Lo! We created them of plastic clay.

11 Faistaftihim ahum ashaddu khalqan am man khalaqna inna khalaqnahum min teenin lazibin

12 Nay, but thou dost marvel when they mock

12 Bal AAajibta wayaskharoona

13 And heed not when they are reminded,

13 Waitha thukkiroo la yathkuroona

14 And seek to scoff when they behold a portent.

14 Waitha raaw ayatan yastaskhiroona

15 And they say: Lo! this is mere magic;

15 Waqaloo in hatha illa sihrun mubeenun

16 When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised (again) ?

16 Aitha mitna wakunna turaban waAAithaman ainna lamabAAoothoona

17 And our forefathers ?

17 Awaabaona alawwaloona

18 Say (O Muhammad): Ye, in truth; and ye will be brought low.

18 Qul naAAam waantum dakhiroona

19 There is but one Shout, and lo! they behold,

19 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun faitha hum yanthuroona

20 And say: Ah, woe for us! This is the Day of Judgment.

20 Waqaloo ya waylana hatha yawmu alddeeni

21 This is the Day of Separation, which ye used to deny.

21 Hatha yawmu alfasli allathee kuntum bihi tukaththiboona

22 (And it is said unto the angels): Assemble those who did wrong, together with their wives and what they used to worship

22 Ohshuroo allatheena thalamoo waazwajahum wama kanoo yaAAbudoona

23 Instead of Allah, and lead them to the path to hell;

23 Min dooni Allahi faihdoohum ila sirati aljaheemi

24 And stop them, for they must be questioned.

24 Waqifoohum innahum masooloona

25 What aileth you that ye help not one another ?

25 Ma lakum la tanasaroona

26 Nay, but this day they make full submission.

26 Bal humu alyawma mustaslimoona

27 And some of them draw near unto others, mutually questioning.

27 Waaqbala baAAduhum AAala baAAdin yatasaaloona

28 They say: Lo! ye used to come unto us, imposing, (swearing that ye spoke the truth).

28 Qaloo innakum kuntum tatoonana AAani alyameeni

29 They answer: Nay, but ye (yourselves) were not believers.

29 Qaloo bal lam takoonoo mumineena

30 We had no power over you, but ye were wayward folk.

30 Wama kana lana AAalaykum min sultanin bal kuntum qawman tagheena

31 Now the Word of our Lord hath been fulfilled concerning us. Lo! we are about to taste (the doom).

31 Fahaqqa AAalayna qawlu rabbina inna lathaiqoona

32 Thus we misled you. Lo! we were (ourselves) astray.

32 Faaghwaynakum inna kunna ghaweena

33 Then lo! this day they (both) are sharers in the doom.

33 Fainnahum yawmaithin fee alAAathabi mushtarikoona

34 Lo! thus deal We with the guilty.

34 Inna kathalika nafAAalu bialmujrimeena

35 For when it was said unto them, There is no God save Allah, they were scornful

35 Innahum kanoo itha qeela lahum la ilaha illa Allahu yastakbiroona

36 And said: Shall we forsake our gods for a mad poet ?

36 Wayaqooloona ainna latarikoo alihatina lishaAAirin majnoonin

37 Nay, but he brought the Truth, and he confirmed those sent (before him).

37 Bal jaa bialhaqqi wasaddaqa almursaleena

38 Lo! (now) verily ye taste the painful doom -

38 Innakum lathaiqoo alAAathabi alaleemi

39 Ye are requited naught save what ye did -

39 Wama tujzawna illa ma kuntum taAAmaloona

40 Save single - minded slaves of Allah;

40 Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena

41 For them there is a known provision,

41 Olaika lahum rizqun maAAloomun

42 Fruits. And they will be honoured

42 Fawakihu wahum mukramoona

43 In the Gardens of delight,

43 Fee jannati alnnaAAeemi

44 On couches facing one another;

44 AAala sururin mutaqabileena

45 A cup from a gushing spring is brought round for them,

45 Yutafu AAalayhim bikasin min maAAeenin

46 White, delicious to the drinkers,

46 Baydaa laththatin lilshsharibeena

47 Wherein there is no headache nor are they made mad thereby.

47 La feeha ghawlun wala hum AAanha yunzafoona

48 And with them are those of modest gaze, with lovely eyes,

48 WaAAindahum qasiratu alttarfi AAeenun

49 (Pure) as they were hidden eggs (of the ostrich).

49 Kaannahunna baydun maknoonun

50 And some of them draw near unto others, mutually questioning.

50 Faaqbala baAAduhum AAala baAAdin yatasaaloona

51 A speaker of them saith: Lo! I had a comrade

51 Qala qailun minhum innee kana lee qareenun

52 Who used to say: Art thou in truth of those who put faith (in his words) ?

52 Yaqoolu ainnaka lamina almusaddiqeena

53 Can we, when we are dead and have become mere dust and bones - can we (then) verily be brought to book ?

53 Aitha mitna wakunna turaban waAAithaman ainna lamadeenoona

54 He saith: Will ye look ?

54 Qala hal antum muttaliAAoona

55 Then looketh he and seeth him in the depth of hell.

55 FaittalaAAa faraahu fee sawai aljaheemi

56 He saith: By Allah, thou verily didst all but cause my ruin,

56 Qala taAllahi in kidta laturdeeni

57 And had it not been for the favour of my Lord, I too had been of those haled forth (to doom).

57 Walawla niAAmatu rabbee lakuntu mina almuhdareena

58 Are we then not to die

58 Afama nahnu bimayyiteena

59 Saving our former death, and are we not to be punished ?

59 Illa mawtatana aloola wama nahnu bimuAAaththabeena

60 Lo! this is the supreme triumph.

60 Inna hatha lahuwa alfawzu alAAatheemu

61 For the like of this, then, let the workers work.

61 Limithli hatha falyaAAmali alAAamiloona

62 Is this better as a welcome, or the tree of Zaqqum ?

62 Athalika khayrun nuzulan am shajaratu alzzaqqoomi

63 Lo! We have appointed it a torment for wrong - doers.

63 Inna jaAAalnaha fitnatan lilththalimeena

64 Lo! it is a tree that springeth in the heart of hell.

64 Innaha shajaratun takhruju fee asli aljaheemi

65 Its crop is as it were the heads of devils

65 TalAAuha kaannahu ruoosu alshshayateeni

66 And lo! they verily must eat thereof, and fill (their) bellies therewith.

66 Fainnahum laakiloona minha famalioona minha albutoona

67 And afterward, lo! thereupon they have a drink of boiling water

67 Thumma inna lahum AAalayha lashawban min hameemin

68 And afterward, lo! their return is surely unto hell.

68 Thumma inna marjiAAahum laila aljaheemi

69 They indeed found their fathers astray,

69 Innahum alfaw abaahum dalleena

70 But they make haste (to follow) in their footsteps.

70 Fahum AAala atharihim yuhraAAoona

71 And verily most of the men of old went astray before them,

71 Walaqad dalla qablahum aktharu alawwaleena

72 And verily We sent among them warners.

72 Walaqad arsalna feehim munthireena

73 Then see the nature of the consequence for those warned,

73 Faonthur kayfa kana AAaqibatu almunthareena

74 Save single - minded slaves of Allah.

74 Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena

75 And Noah verily prayed unto Us, and gracious was the Hearer of his prayer

75 Walaqad nadana noohun falaniAAma almujeeboona

76 And We saved him and his household from the great distress,

76 Wanajjaynahu waahlahu mina alkarbi alAAatheemi

77 And made his seed the survivors,

77 WajaAAalna thurriyyatahu humu albaqeena

78 And left for him among the later folk (the salutation):

78 Watarakna AAalayhi fee alakhireena

79 Peace be unto Noah among the peoples!

79 Salamun AAala noohin fee alAAalameena

80 Lo! thus do We reward the good.

80 Inna kathalika najzee almuhsineena

81 Lo! he is one of Our believing slaves.

81 Innahu min AAibadina almumineena

82 Then We did drown the others.

82 Thumma aghraqna alakhareena

83 And lo! of his persuasion verily was Abraham

83 Wainna min sheeAAatihi laibraheema

84 When he came unto his Lord with a whole heart;

84 Ith jaa rabbahu biqalbin saleemin

85 When he said unto his father and his folk: What is it that ye worship ?

85 Ith qala liabeehi waqawmihi matha taAAbudoona

86 Is it a falsehood - gods beside Allah - that ye desire ?

86 Aifkan alihatan doona Allahi tureedoona

87 What then is your opinion of the Lord of the Worlds ?

87 Fama thannukum birabbi alAAalameena

88 And he glanced a glance at the stars

88 Fanathara nathratan fee alnnujoomi

89 Then said: Lo! I feel sick!

89 Faqala innee saqeemun

90 And they turned their backs and went away from him.

90 Fatawallaw AAanhu mudbireena

91 Then turned he to their gods and said: Will ye not eat ?

91 Faragha ila alihatihim faqala ala takuloona

92 What aileth you that ye speak not ?

92 Ma lakum la tantiqoona

93 Then he attacked them, striking with his right hand.

93 Faragha AAalayhim darban bialyameeni

94 And (his people) came toward him, hastening.

94 Faaqbaloo ilayhi yaziffoona

95 He said: Worship ye that which ye yourselves do carve

95 Qala ataAAbudoona ma tanhitoona

96 When Allah hath created you and what ye make ?

96 WaAllahu khalaqakum wama taAAmaloona

97 They said: Build for him a building and fling him in the red - hotfire.

97 Qaloo ibnoo lahu bunyanan faalqoohu fee aljaheemi

98 And they designed a snare for him, but We made them the undermost.

98 Faaradoo bihi kaydan fajaAAalnahumu alasfaleena

99 And he said: Lo! I am going unto my Lord Who will guide me.

99 Waqala innee thahibun ila rabbee sayahdeeni

100 My Lord! Vouchsafe me of the righteous.

100 Rabbi hab lee mina alssaliheena

101 So We gave him tidings of a gentle son.

101 Fabashsharnahu bighulamin haleemin

102 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.

102 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

103 Then, when they had both surrendered (to Allah), and he had flung him down upon his face,

103 Falamma aslama watallahu liljabeeni

104 We called unto him: O Abraham!

104 Wanadaynahu an ya ibraheemu

105 Thou hast already fulfilled the vision. Lo! thus do We reward the good.

105 Qad saddaqta alrruya inna kathalika najzee almuhsineena

106 Lo! that verily was a clear test.

106 Inna hatha lahuwa albalao almubeenu

107 Then We ransomed him with a tremendous victim.

107 Wafadaynahu bithibhin AAatheemin

108 And We left for him among the later folk (the salutation):

108 Watarakna AAalayhi fee alakhireena

109 Peace be unto Abraham!

109 Salamun AAala ibraheema

110 Thus do We reward the good.

110 Kathalika najzee almuhsineena

111 Lo! he is one of Our believing slaves.

111 Innahu min AAibadina almumineena

112 And we gave him tidings of the birth of Isaac, a prophet of the righteous.

112 Wabashsharnahu biishaqa nabiyyan mina alssaliheena

113 And We blessed him and Isaac. And of their seed are some who do good, and some who plainly wrong themselves.

113 Wabarakna AAalayhi waAAala ishaqa wamin thurriyyatihima muhsinun wathalimun linafsihi mubeenun

114 And We verily gave grace unto Moses and Aaron,

114 Walaqad mananna AAala moosa waharoona

115 And saved them and their people from the great distress,

115 Wanajjaynahuma waqawmahuma mina alkarbi alAAatheemi

116 And helped them so that they became the victors.

116 Wanasarnahum fakanoo humu alghalibeena

117 And We gave them the clear Scripture

117 Waataynahuma alkitaba almustabeena

118 And showed them the right path.

118 Wahadaynahuma alssirata almustaqeema

119 And We left for them among the later folk (the salutation):

119 Watarakna AAalayhima fee alakhireena

120 Peace be unto Moses and Aaron!

120 Salamun AAala moosa waharoona

121 Lo! thus do We reward the good.

121 Inna kathalika najzee almuhsineena

122 Lo! they are two of Our believing slaves.

122 Innahuma min AAibadina almumineena

123 And lo! Elias was of those sent (to warn),

123 Wainna ilyasa lamina almursaleena

124 When he said unto his folk: Will ye not ward off (evil) ?

124 Ith qala liqawmihi ala tattaqoona

125 Will ye cry unto Baal and forsake the Best of creators,

125 AtadAAoona baAAlan watatharoona ahsana alkhaliqeena

126 Allah, your Lord and Lord of your forefathers ?

126 Allaha rabbakum warabba abaikumu alawwaleena

127 But they denied him, so they surely will be haled forth (to the doom)

127 Fakaththaboohu fainnahum lamuhdaroona

128 Save single - minded slaves of Allah.

128 Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena

129 And we left for him among the later folk (the salutation):

129 Watarakna AAalayhi fee alakhireena

130 Peace be unto Elias!

130 Salamun AAala il yaseena

131 Lo! thus do We reward the good.

131 Inna kathalika najzee almuhsineena

132 Lo! he is one of our believing slaves.

132 Innahu min AAibadina almumineena

133 And lo! Lot verily was of those sent (to warn).

133 Wainna lootan lamina almursaleena

134 When We saved him and his household, every one,

134 Ith najjaynahu waahlahu ajmaAAeena

135 Save an old woman among those who stayed behind;

135 Illa AAajoozan fee alghabireena

136 Then We destroyed the others.

136 Thumma dammarna alakhareena

137 And lo! ye verily pass by (the ruin of) them in the morning

137 Wainnakum latamurroona AAalayhim musbiheena

138 And at night - time; have ye then no sense ?

138 Wabiallayli afala taAAqiloona

139 And lo! Jonah verily was of those sent (to warn)

139 Wainna yoonusa lamina almursaleena

140 When he fled unto the laden ship,

140 Ith abaqa ila alfulki almashhooni

141 And then drew lots and was of those rejected;

141 Fasahama fakana mina almudhadeena

142 And the fish swallowed him while he was blameworthy;

142 Failtaqamahu alhootu wahuwa muleemun

143 And had he not been one of those who glorify (Allah)

143 Falawla annahu kana mina almusabbiheena

144 He would have tarried in its belly till the day when they are raised;

144 Lalabitha fee batnihi ila yawmi yubAAathoona

145 Then We cast him on a desert shore while he was sick;

145 Fanabathnahu bialAAarai wahuwa saqeemun

146 And We caused a tree of gourd to grow above him;

146 Waanbatna AAalayhi shajaratan min yaqteenin

147 And We sent him to a hundred thousand (folk) or more

147 Waarsalnahu ila miati alfin aw yazeedoona

148 And they believed, therefor We gave them comfort for a while.

148 Faamanoo famattaAAnahum ila heenin

149 Now ask them (O Muhammad): Hath thy Lord daughters whereas they have sons ?

149 Faistaftihim alirabbika albanatu walahumu albanoona

150 Or created We the angels females while they were present ?

150 Am khalaqna almalaikata inathan wahum shahidoona

151 Lo! it is of their falsehood that they say:

151 Ala innahum min ifkihim layaqooloona

152 Allah hath begotten. Allah! verily they tell a lie.

152 Walada Allahu wainnahum lakathiboona

153 (And again of their falsehood): He hath preferred daughters to sons.

153 Astafa albanati AAala albaneena

154 What aileth you ? How judge ye ?

154 Ma lakum kayfa tahkumoona

155 Will ye not then reflect ?

155 Afala tathakkaroona

156 Or have ye a clear warrant ?

156 Am lakum sultanun mubeenun

157 Then produce your writ, if ye are truthful.

157 Fatoo bikitabikum in kuntum sadiqeena

158 And they imagine kinship between him and the jinn, whereas the jinn know well that they will be brought before (Him).

158 WajaAAaloo baynahu wabayna aljinnati nasaban walaqad AAalimati aljinnatu innahum lamuhdaroona

159 Glorified be Allah from that which they attribute (unto Him),

159 Subhana Allahi AAamma yasifoona

160 Save single - minded slaves of Allah.

160 Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena

161 Lo! verily, ye and that which ye worship,

161 Fainnakum wama taAAbudoona

162 Ye cannot excite (anyone) against Him.

162 Ma antum AAalayhi bifatineena

163 Save him who is to burn in hell.

163 Illa man huwa sali aljaheemi

164 There is not one of us but hath his known position.

164 Wama minna illa lahu maqamun maAAloomun

165 Lo! we, even we are they who set the ranks,

165 Wainna lanahnu alssaffoona

166 Lo! we, even we are they who hymn His praise

166 Wainna lanahnu almusabbihoona

167 And indeed they used to say:

167 Wain kanoo layaqooloona

168 If we had but a reminder from the men of old
