1 Aliflamra tilka ayatu alkitabi waquranin mubeenin

1 A. L. R. These are the Ayats of Revelation, - of a Qur'an that makes things clear.

2 Rubama yawaddu allatheena kafaroo law kanoo muslimeena

2 Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they had bowed (to Allah's will) in Islam.

3 Tharhum yakuloo wayatamattaAAoo wayulhihimu alamalu fasawfa yaAAlamoona

3 Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them).

4 Wama ahlakna min qaryatin illa walaha kitabun maAAloomun

4 Never did We destroy a population that had not a term decreed and assigned beforehand.

5 Ma tasbiqu min ommatin ajalaha wama yastakhiroona

5 Neither can a people anticipate its term, nor delay it.

6 Waqaloo ya ayyuha allathee nuzzila AAalayhi alththikru innaka lamajnoonun

6 They say: "O thou to whom the Message is being revealed! truly thou art mad (or possessed)!

7 Law ma tateena bialmalaikati in kunta mina alssadiqeena

7 "Why bringest thou not angels to us if it be that thou hast the Truth?"

8 Ma nunazzilu almalaikata illa bialhaqqi wama kanoo ithan munthareena

8 We send not the angels down except for just cause: if they came (to the ungodly), behold! no respite would they have!

9 Inna nahnu nazzalna alththikra wainna lahu lahafithoona

9 We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption).

10 Walaqad arsalna min qablika fee shiyaAAi alawwaleena

10 We did send messengers before thee amongst the religious sects of old:

11 Wama yateehim min rasoolin illa kanoo bihi yastahzioona

11 But never came a messenger to them but they mocked him.

12 Kathalika naslukuhu fee quloobi almujrimeena

12 Even so do we let it creep into the hearts of the sinners -

13 La yuminoona bihi waqad khalat sunnatu alawwaleena

13 That they should not believe in the (Message); but the ways of the ancients have passed away.

14 Walaw fatahna AAalayhim baban mina alssamai fathalloo feehi yaAArujoona

14 Even if We opened out to them a gate from heaven, and they were to continue (all day) ascending therein,

15 Laqaloo innama sukkirat absaruna bal nahnu qawmun mashooroona

15 They would only say: "Our eyes have been intoxicated: Nay, we have been bewitched by sorcery."

16 Walaqad jaAAalna fee alssamai buroojan wazayyannaha lilnnathireena

16 It is We Who have set out the zodiacal signs in the heavens, and made them fair - seeming to (all) beholders;

17 Wahafithnaha min kulli shaytanin rajeemin

17 And (moreover) We have guarded them from every cursed devil:

18 Illa mani istaraqa alssamAAa faatbaAAahu shihabun mubeenun

18 But any that gains a hearing by stealth, is pursued by a flaming fire, bright (to see).

19 Waalarda madadnaha waalqayna feeha rawasiya waanbatna feeha min kulli shayin mawzoonin

19 And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance.

20 WajaAAalna lakum feeha maAAayisha waman lastum lahu biraziqeena

20 And We have provided therein means of subsistence, - for you and for those for whose sustenance ye are not responsible.

21 Wain min shayin illa AAindana khazainuhu wama nunazziluhu illa biqadarin maAAloomin

21 And there is not a thing but its (sources and) treasures (inexhaustible) are with Us; but We only send down thereof in due and ascertainable measures.

22 Waarsalna alrriyaha lawaqiha faanzalna mina alssamai maan faasqaynakumoohu wama antum lahu bikhazineena

22 And We send the fecundating winds, then cause the rain to descend from the sky, therewith providing you with water (in abundance), though ye are not the guardians of its stores.

23 Wainna lanahnu nuhyee wanumeetu wanahnu alwarithoona

23 And verily, it is We Who give life, and Who give death: it is We Who remain inheritors (after all else passes away).

24 Walaqad AAalimna almustaqdimeena minkum walaqad AAalimna almustakhireena

24 To Us are known those of you who hasten forward, and those who lag behind.

25 Wainna rabbaka huwa yahshuruhum innahu hakeemun AAaleemun

25 Assuredly it is thy Lord Who will gather them together: for He is perfect in Wisdom and Knowledge.

26 Walaqad khalaqna alinsana min salsalin min hamain masnoonin

26 We created man from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape;

27 Waaljanna khalaqnahu min qablu min nari alssamoomi

27 And the Jinn race, We had created before, from the fire of a scorching wind.

28 Waith qala rabbuka lilmalaikati innee khaliqun basharan min salsalin min hamain masnoonin

28 Behold! thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man, from sounding clay from mud moulded into shape;

29 Faitha sawwaytuhu wanafakhtu feehi min roohee faqaAAoo lahu sajideena

29 "When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him."

30 Fasajada almalaikatu kulluhum ajmaAAoona

30 So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together:

31 Illa ibleesa aba an yakoona maAAa alssajideena

31 Not so Iblis: he refused to be among those who prostrated themselves.

32 Qala ya ibleesu ma laka alla takoona maAAa alssajideena

32 (Allah) said: "O Iblis! what is your reason for not being among those who prostrated themselves?"

33 Qala lam akun liasjuda libasharin khalaqtahu min salsalin min hamain masnoonin

33 (Iblis) said: "I am not one to prostrate myself to man, whom Thou didst create from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape."

36 Qala rabbi faanthirnee ila yawmi yubAAathoona

38 Ila yawmi alwaqti almaAAloomi

39 Qala rabbi bima aghwaytanee laozayyinanna lahum fee alardi walaoghwiyannahum ajmaAAeena

39 (Iblis) said: "O my Lord! because Thou hast put me in the wrong, I will make (wrong) fair - seeming to them on the earth, and I will put them all in the wrong, -

40 Illa AAibadaka minhumu almukhlaseena

40 "Except Thy servants among them, sincere and purified (by Thy Grace)."

41 Qala hatha siratun AAalayya mustaqeemun

41 (Allah) said: "This (way of My sincere servants) is indeed a way that leads straight to Me.

42 Inna AAibadee laysa laka AAalayhim sultanun illa mani ittabaAAaka mina alghaweena

42 "For over My servants no authority shalt thou have, except such as put themselves in the wrong and follow thee."

43 Wainna jahannama lamawAAiduhum ajmaAAeena

43 And verily, Hell is the promised abode for them all!

44 Laha sabAAatu abwabin likulli babin minhum juzon maqsoomun

44 To it are seven gates: for each of those gates is a (special) class (of sinners) assigned.

45 Inna almuttaqeena fee jannatin waAAuyoonin

45 The righteous (will be) amid gardens and fountains (of clear - flowing water).

46 Odkhulooha bisalamin amineena

47 WanazaAAna ma fee sudoorihim min ghillin ikhwanan AAala sururin mutaqabileena

47 And We shall remove from their hearts any lurking sense of injury: (they will be) brothers (joyfully) facing each other on thrones (of dignity).

48 La yamassuhum feeha nasabun wama hum minha bimukhrajeena

48 There no sense of fatigue shall touch them, nor shall they (ever) be asked to leave.

49 Nabbi AAibadee annee ana alghafooru alrraheemu

49 Tell My servants that I am indeed the Oft - forgiving, Most Merciful;

50 Wa anna AAathabee huwa alAAathabu alaleemu

50 And that My Penalty will be indeed the most grievous Penalty.

51 Tell them about the guests of Abraham.

52 Ith dakhaloo AAalayhi faqaloo salaman qala inna minkum wajiloona

73 Faakhathathumu alssayhatu mushriqeena

73 But the (mighty) Blast overtook them before morning,

74 FajaAAalna AAaliyaha safilaha waamtarna AAalayhim hijaratan min sijjeelin

74 And We turned (the cities) upside down, and rained down on them brimstones hard as baked clay.
