ইয়া সীন (আরবী বর্ণমালার দু'টি অক্ষর)

1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Ya-Sin. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings].

1 Ya, Seen.

2 By the Qur'an, full of wisdom (i.e. full of laws, evidence, and proofs),

2 By the wise Qur'an.

3 Truly, you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) are one of the Messengers,

3 Indeed you, [O Muhammad], are from among the messengers,

4 On the Straight Path (i.e. on Allah's religion of Islamic Monotheism).

4 On a straight path.

5 (This is a Revelation) sent down by the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful,

5 [This is] a revelation of the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

6 In order that you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are heedless.

6 That you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are unaware.

7 Indeed the Word (of punishment) has proved true against most of them, so they will not believe.

7 Already the word has come into effect upon most of them, so they do not believe.

8 Verily We have put on their necks iron collars reaching to the chins, so that their heads are raised up.

8 Indeed, We have put shackles on their necks, and they are to their chins, so they are with heads [kept] aloft.

9 And We have put a barrier before them, and a barrier behind them, and We have covered them up, so that they cannot see.

9 And We have put before them a barrier and behind them a barrier and covered them, so they do not see.

10 It is the same to them whether you warn them or you warn them not, they will not believe.

10 And it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.

11 You can only warn him who follows the Reminder (the Qur'an), and fears the Most Gracious (Allah) unseen. Bear you to such one the glad tidings of forgiveness, and a generous reward (i.e. Paradise).

11 You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward.

12 Verily, We give life to the dead, and We record that which they send before (them), and their traces and all things We have recorded with numbers (as a record) in a Clear Book.

12 Indeed, it is We who bring the dead to life and record what they have put forth and what they left behind, and all things We have enumerated in a clear register.

13 And put forward to them a similitude: the (story of the) dwellers of the town, [it is said that the town was Antioch (Antakiya)], when there came Messengers to them.

13 And present to them an example: the people of the city, when the messengers came to it -

14 When We sent to them two Messengers, they belied them both; so We reinforced them with a third, and they said: "Verily we have been sent to you as Messengers."

14 When We sent to them two but they denied them, so We strengthened them with a third, and they said, "Indeed, we are messengers to you."

15 They (people of the town) said: "You are only human beings like ourselves, and the Most Gracious (Allah) has revealed nothing. You are only telling lies."

15 They said, "You are not but human beings like us, and the Most Merciful has not revealed a thing. You are only telling lies."

16 The Messengers said: "Our Lord knows that we have been sent as Messengers to you,

16 They said, "Our Lord knows that we are messengers to you,

17 "And our duty is only to convey plainly (the Message)."

17 And we are not responsible except for clear notification."

18 They (people) said: "For us, we see an evil omen from you: if you cease not, we will surely stone you, and a painful torment will touch you from us."

18 They said, "Indeed, we consider you a bad omen. If you do not desist, we will surely stone you, and there will surely touch you, from us, a painful punishment."

19 They (Messengers) said: "Your evil omens be with you! (Do you call it "evil omen") because you are admonished? Nay, but you are a people Musrifun (transgressing all bounds by committing all kinds of great sins, and by disobeying Allah).

19 They said, "Your omen is with yourselves. Is it because you were reminded? Rather, you are a transgressing people."

20 And there came a man running from the farthest part of the town. He said: "O my people! Obey the Messengers.

20 And there came from the farthest end of the city a man, running. He said, "O my people, follow the messengers.

21 "Obey those who ask no wages of you (for themselves), and who are rightly guided.

21 Follow those who do not ask of you [any] payment, and they are [rightly] guided.

22 "And why should I not worship Him (Allah Alone) Who has created me and to Whom you shall be returned.

22 And why should I not worship He who created me and to whom you will be returned?

23 "Shall I take besides Him alihah (gods)? If the Most Gracious (Allah) intends me any harm, their intercession will be of no use for me whatsoever, nor can they save me?

23 Should I take other than Him [false] deities [while], if the Most Merciful intends for me some adversity, their intercession will not avail me at all, nor can they save me?

24 "Then verily, I should be in plain error.

24 Indeed, I would then be in manifest error.

25 "Verily! I have believed in your Lord, so listen to me!"

25 Indeed, I have believed in your Lord, so listen to me."

26 It was said (to him when the disbelievers killed him): "Enter Paradise." He said: "Would that my people knew

26 It was said, "Enter Paradise." He said, "I wish my people could know

27 "That my Lord (Allah) has forgiven me, and made me of the honoured ones!"

27 Of how my Lord has forgiven me and placed me among the honored."

28 And We sent not against his people after him a host from the heaven, nor was it needful for Us to send (such a thing).

28 And We did not send down upon his people after him any soldiers from the heaven, nor would We have done so.

29 It was but one Saihah (shout) and lo! they (all) were still (silent,dead,destroyed).

29 It was not but one shout, and immediately they were extinguished.

30 Alas for mankind! There never came a Messenger to them but they used to mock at him.

30 How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him.

31 Do they not see how many of the generations We have destroyed before them? Verily, they will not return to them.

31 Have they not considered how many generations We destroyed before them - that they to them will not return?

32 And surely, all - everyone of them will be brought before Us.

32 And indeed, all of them will yet be brought present before Us.

33 And a sign for them is the dead land. We give it life, and We bring forth from it grains, so that they eat thereof.

33 And a sign for them is the dead earth. We have brought it to life and brought forth from it grain, and from it they eat.

34 And We have made therein gardens of date-palms and grapes, and We have caused springs of water to gush forth therein.

34 And We placed therein gardens of palm trees and grapevines and caused to burst forth therefrom some springs -

35 So that they may eat of the fruit thereof - and their hands made it not. Will they not, then, give thanks?

35 That they may eat of His fruit. And their hands have not produced it, so will they not be grateful?

36 Glory be to Him Who has created all the pairs of that which the earth produces, as well as of their own (human) kind (male and female), and of that which they know not.

36 Exalted is He who created all pairs - from what the earth grows and from themselves and from that which they do not know.

37 And a sign for them is the night. We withdraw therefrom the day, and behold, they are in darkness.

37 And a sign for them is the night. We remove from it [the light of] day, so they are [left] in darkness.

38 And the sun runs on its fixed course for a term (appointed). That is the Decree of the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing.

38 And the sun runs [on course] toward its stopping point. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.

39 And the moon, We have measured for it mansions (to traverse) till it returns like the old dried curved date stalk.

39 And the moon - We have determined for it phases, until it returns [appearing] like the old date stalk.

40 It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor does the night outstrip the day. They all float, each in an orbit.

40 It is not allowable for the sun to reach the moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but each, in an orbit, is swimming.

41 And an Ayah (sign) for them is that We bore their offspring in the laden ship [of Nuh (Noah)].

41 And a sign for them is that We carried their forefathers in a laden ship.

42 And We have created for them of the like thereunto, on which they ride.

42 And We created for them from the likes of it that which they ride.

43 And if We will, We shall drown them, and there will be no shout (or helper) for them (to hear their cry for help), nor will they be saved.

43 And if We should will, We could drown them; then no one responding to a cry would there be for them, nor would they be saved

44 Unless it be a mercy from Us, and as an enjoyment for a while.

44 Except as a mercy from Us and provision for a time.

45 And when it is said to them: "Fear of that which is before you (worldly torments), and that which is behind you (torments in the Hereafter), in order that you may receive Mercy (i.e. if you believe in Allah's religion - Islamic Monotheism, and avoid polytheism, and obey Allah with righteous deeds)."

45 But when it is said to them, "Beware of what is before you and what is behind you; perhaps you will receive mercy... "

46 And never came an Ayah from among the Ayat (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of their Lord to them, but they did turn away from it.

46 And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they are from it turning away.

47 And when it is said to them: "Spend of that with which Allah has provided you," those who disbelieve say to those who believe: "Shall we feed those whom, if Allah willed, He (Himself) would have fed? You are only in a plain error."

47 And when it is said to them, "Spend from that which Allah has provided for you," those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Should we feed one whom, if Allah had willed, He would have fed? You are not but in clear error."

48 And they say: "When will this promise (i.e. Resurrection) be fulfilled, if you are truthful?"

48 And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful?"

49 They await only but a single Saihah (shout), which will seize them while they are disputing!

49 They do not await except one blast which will seize them while they are disputing.

50 Then they will not be able to make bequest, nor they will return to their family.

50 And they will not be able [to give] any instruction, nor to their people can they return.

51 And the Trumpet will be blown (i.e. the second blowing) and behold from the graves they will come out quickly to their Lord.

51 And the Horn will be blown; and at once from the graves to their Lord they will hasten.

52 They will say: "Woe to us! Who has raised us up from our place of sleep." (It will be said to them): "This is what the Most Gracious (Allah) had promised, and the Messengers spoke truth!"

52 They will say, "O woe to us! Who has raised us up from our sleeping place?" [The reply will be], "This is what the Most Merciful had promised, and the messengers told the truth."

53 It will be but a single Saihah (shout), so behold they will all be brought up before Us!

53 It will not be but one blast, and at once they are all brought present before Us.

54 This Day (Day of Resurrection), none will be wronged in anything, nor will you be requited anything except that which you used to do.

54 So today no soul will be wronged at all, and you will not be recompensed except for what you used to do.

55 Verily, the dwellers of the Paradise, that Day, will be busy with joyful things.

55 Indeed the companions of Paradise, that Day, will be amused in [joyful] occupation -

56 They and their wives will be in pleasant shade, reclining on thrones.

56 They and their spouses - in shade, reclining on adorned couches.

57 They will have therein fruits (of all kinds) and all that they ask for.

57 For them therein is fruit, and for them is whatever they request [or wish]

58 (It will be said to them): Salam (peace be on you) - a Word from the Lord (Allah), Most Merciful.

58 [And] "Peace," a word from a Merciful Lord.

59 (It will be said): "And O you Mujrimun (criminals, polytheists, sinners, disbelievers in the Islamic Monotheism, wicked evil ones)! Get you apart this Day (from the believers).

59 [Then He will say], "But stand apart today, you criminals.

60 Did I not command you, O Children of Adam, that you should not worship Shaitan (Satan). Verily, he is a plain enemy to you.

60 Did I not enjoin upon you, O children of Adam, that you not worship Satan - [for] indeed, he is to you a clear enemy -

61 And that you should worship Me [Alone - Islamic Monotheism, and set up not rivals, associate-gods with Me]. That is the Straight Path.

61 And that you worship [only] Me? This is a straight path.

62 And indeed he (Satan) did lead astray a great multitude of you. Did you not, then, understand?

62 And he had already led astray from among you much of creation, so did you not use reason?

63 This is Hell which you were promised!

63 This is the Hellfire which you were promised.

64 Burn therein this Day, for that you used to disbelieve.

64 [Enter to] burn therein today for what you used to deny."

65 This Day, We shall seal up their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their legs will bear witness to what they used to earn. (It is said that one's left thigh will be the first to bear the witness). [Tafsir At-Tabari,]

65 That Day, We will seal over their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their feet will testify about what they used to earn.

66 And if it had been Our Will, We would surely have wiped out (blinded) their eyes, so that they would struggle for the Path, how then would they see?

66 And if We willed, We could have obliterated their eyes, and they would race to [find] the path, and how could they see?

67 And if it had been Our Will, We could have transformed them (into animals or lifeless objects) in their places. Then they would have been unable to go forward (move about) nor they could have turned back.

67 And if We willed, We could have deformed them, [paralyzing them] in their places so they would not be able to proceed, nor could they return.

68 And he whom We grant long life - We reverse him in creation (weakness after strength). Will they not then understand?

68 And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation; so will they not understand?

69 And We have not taught him (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) poetry, nor is it suitable for him. This is only a Reminder and a plain Qur'an.

69 And We did not give Prophet Muhammad, knowledge of poetry, nor is it befitting for him. It is not but a message and a clear Qur'an

70 That he or it (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم or the Qur'an) may give warning to him who is living (a healthy minded - the believer), and that Word (charge) may be justified against the disbelievers (dead, as they reject the warnings).

70 To warn whoever is alive and justify the word against the disbelievers.

71 Do they not see that We have created for them of what Our Hands have created the cattle, so that they are their owners.

71 Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners?

72 And We have subdued them unto them so that some of them they have for riding and some they eat.

72 And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat.

73 And they have (other) benefits from them, and they get (milk) to drink. Will they not then be grateful?

73 And for them therein are [other] benefits and drinks, so will they not be grateful?

74 And they have taken besides Allah alihah (gods), hoping that they might be helped (by those so-called gods).

74 But they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped.

75 They cannot help them, but they will be brought forward as a troop against those who worshipped them (at the time of Reckoning).

75 They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance.

76 So let not their speech, then, grieve you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم). Verily, We know what they conceal and what they reveal.

76 So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare.

77 Does not man see that We have created him from Nutfah (mixed male and female sexual discharge - semen drops). Yet behold he (stands forth) as an open opponent.

77 Does man not consider that We created him from a [mere] sperm - drop - then at once he is a clear adversary?

78 And he puts forth for Us a parable, and forgets his own creation. He says: "Who will give life to these bones after they are rotten and have become dust?"

78 And he presents for Us an example and forgets his [own] creation. He says, "Who will give life to bones while they are disintegrated?"

79 Say: (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) "He will give life to them Who created them for the first time! And He is the All-Knower of every creation!"

79 Say, "He will give them life who produced them the first time; and He is, of all creation, Knowing."

80 He Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold you kindle therewith.

80 [It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite.

81 Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth, Able to create the like of them? Yes, indeed! He is the All-Knowing Supreme Creator.

81 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them? Yes, [it is so]; and He is the Knowing Creator.

82 Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, "Be!" - and it is!

82 His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is.

83 So glorified be He and exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him you shall be returned.

83 So exalted is He in whose hand is the realm of all things, and to Him you will be returned.
