আল কলম (কলম)

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Nun. By the pen and that which they write (therewith),

1 Nun. By the pen and what they inscribe,

1 Noon waalqalami wama yasturoona

2 Thou art not, for thy Lord's favour unto thee, a madman.

2 You are not, [O Muhammad], by the favor of your Lord, a madman.

2 Ma anta biniAAmati rabbika bimajnoonin

3 And lo! thine verily will be a reward unfailing.

3 And indeed, for you is a reward uninterrupted.

3 Wainna laka laajran ghayra mamnoonin

4 And lo! thou art of a tremendous nature.

4 And indeed, you are of a great moral character.

4 Wainnaka laAAala khuluqin AAatheemin

5 And thou wilt see and they will see

5 So you will see and they will see

5 Fasatubsiru wayubsiroona

6 Which of you is the demented.

6 Which of you is the afflicted [by a devil].

6 Biayyikumu almaftoonu

7 Lo! thy Lord is Best Aware of him who strayeth from His way, and He is Best Aware of those who walk aright.

7 Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has gone astray from His way, and He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided.

7 Inna rabbaka huwa aAAlamu biman dalla AAan sabeelihi wahuwa aAAlamu bialmuhtadeena

8 Therefor obey not thou the rejecters

8 Then do not obey the deniers.

8 Fala tutiAAi almukaththibeena

9 Who would have had thee compromise, that they may compromise.

9 They wish that you would soften [in your position], so they would soften [toward you].

9 Waddoo law tudhinu fayudhinoona

10 Neither obey thou each feeble oath - monger,

10 And do not obey every worthless habitual swearer

10 Wala tutiAA kulla hallafin maheenin

11 Detracter, spreader abroad of slanders,

11 [And] scorner, going about with malicious gossip -

11 Hammazin mashshain binameemin

12 Hinderer of the good, transgressor, malefactor

12 A preventer of good, transgressing and sinful,

12 MannaAAin lilkhayri muAAtadin atheemin

13 Greedy therewithal, intrusive.

13 Cruel, moreover, and an illegitimate pretender.

13 AAutullin baAAda thalika zaneemin

14 It is because he is possessed of wealth and children

14 Because he is a possessor of wealth and children,

14 An kana tha malin wabaneena

15 That, when Our revelations are recited unto him, he saith: Mere fables of the men of old.

15 When Our verses are recited to him, he says, "Legends of the former peoples."

15 Itha tutla AAalayhi ayatuna qala asateeru alawwaleena

16 We shall brand him on the nose.

16 We will brand him upon the snout.

16 Sanasimuhu AAala alkhurtoomi

17 Lo! We have tried them as We tried the owners of the garden when they vowed that they would pluck its fruit next morning,

17 Indeed, We have tried them as We tried the companions of the garden, when they swore to cut its fruit in the [early] morning

17 Inna balawnahum kama balawna ashaba aljannati ith aqsamoo layasrimunnaha musbiheena

18 And made no exception (for the Will of Allah);

18 Without making exception.

18 Wala yastathnoona

19 Then a visitation from thy Lord came upon it while they slept

19 So there came upon the garden an affliction from your Lord while they were asleep.

19 Fatafa AAalayha taifun min rabbika wahum naimoona

20 And in the morning it was as if plucked.

20 And it became as though reaped.

20 Faasbahat kaalssareemi

21 And they cried out one unto another in the morning,

21 And they called one another at morning,

21 Fatanadaw musbiheena

22 Saying: Run unto your field if ye would pluck (the fruit).

22 [Saying], "Go early to your crop if you would cut the fruit."

22 Ani ighdoo AAala harthikum in kuntum sarimeena

23 So they went off, saying one unto another in low tones:

23 So they set out, while lowering their voices,

23 Faintalaqoo wahum yatakhafatoona

24 No needy man shall enter it to - day against you.

24 [Saying], "There will surely not enter it today upon you [any] poor person."

24 An la yadkhulannaha alyawma AAalaykum miskeenun

25 They went betimes, strong in (this) purpose.

25 And they went early in determination, [assuming themselves] able.

25 Waghadaw AAala hardin qadireena

26 But when they saw it, they said: Lo! we are in error!

26 But when they saw it, they said, "Indeed, we are lost;

26 Falamma raawha qaloo inna ladalloona

27 Nay, but we are desolate!

27 Rather, we have been deprived."

27 Bal nahnu mahroomoona

28 The best among them said: Said I not unto you: Why glorify ye not (Allah) ?

28 The most moderate of them said, "Did I not say to you, 'Why do you not exalt [Allah]?' "

28 Qala awsatuhum alam aqul lakum lawla tusabbihoona

29 They said: Glorified be our Lord! Lo! we have been wrong - doers.

29 They said, "Exalted is our Lord! Indeed, we were wrongdoers."

29 Qaloo subhana rabbina inna kunna thalimeena

30 Then some of them drew near unto others, self - reproaching.

30 Then they approached one another, blaming each other.

30 Faaqbala baAAduhum AAala baAAdin yatalawamoona

31 They said: Alas for us! In truth we were outrageous.

31 They said, "O woe to us; indeed we were transgressors.

31 Qaloo ya waylana inna kunna tagheena

32 It may be that our Lord will give us better than this in place thereof. Lo! we beseech our Lord.

32 Perhaps our Lord will substitute for us [one] better than it. Indeed, we are toward our Lord desirous."

32 AAasa rabbuna an yubdilana khayran minha inna ila rabbina raghiboona

33 Such was the punishment. And verily the punishment of the Hereafter is greater if they did but know.

33 Such is the punishment [of this world]. And the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.

33 Kathalika alAAathabu walaAAathabu alakhirati akbaru law kanoo yaAAlamoona

34 Lo! for those who keep from evil are gardens of bliss with their Lord.

34 Indeed, for the righteous with their Lord are the Gardens of Pleasure.

34 Inna lilmuttaqeena AAinda rabbihim jannati alnnaAAeemi

35 Shall We then treat those who have surrendered as We treat the guilty ?

35 Then will We treat the Muslims like the criminals?

35 AfanajAAalu almuslimeena kaalmujrimeena

36 What aileth you ? How foolishly ye judge!

36 What is [the matter] with you? How do you judge?

36 Ma lakum kayfa tahkumoona

37 Or have ye a scripture wherein ye learn

37 Or do you have a scripture in which you learn

37 Am lakum kitabun feehi tadrusoona

38 That ye shall indeed have all that ye choose ?

38 That indeed for you is whatever you choose?

38 Inna lakum feehi lama takhayyaroona

39 Or have ye a covenant on oath from Us that reacheth to the Day of Judgment, that yours shall be all that ye ordain ?

39 Or do you have oaths [binding] upon Us, extending until the Day of Resurrection, that indeed for you is whatever you judge?

39 Am lakum aymanun AAalayna balighatun ila yawmi alqiyamati inna lakum lama tahkumoona

40 Ask them (O Muhammad) which of them will vouch for that!

40 Ask them which of them, for that [claim], is responsible.

40 Salhum ayyuhum bithalika zaAAeemun

41 Or have they other gods ? Then let them bring their other gods if they are truthful

41 Or do they have partners? Then let them bring their partners, if they should be truthful.

41 Am lahum shurakao falyatoo bishurakaihim in kanoo sadiqeena

42 On the day when it befalleth in earnest, and they are ordered to prostrate themselves but are not able,

42 The Day the shin will be uncovered and they are invited to prostration but the disbelievers will not be able,

42 Yawma yukshafu AAan saqin wayudAAawna ila alssujoodi fala yastateeAAoona

43 With eyes downcast, abasement stupefying them. And they had been summoned to prostrate themselves while they were yet unhurt.

43 Their eyes humbled, humiliation will cover them. And they used to be invited to prostration while they were sound.

43 KhashiAAatan absaruhum tarhaquhum thillatun waqad kanoo yudAAawna ila alssujoodi wahum salimoona

44 Leave Me (to deal) with those who give the lie to this pronouncement. We shall lead them on by steps from whence they know not.

44 So leave Me, [O Muhammad], with [the matter of] whoever denies the Qur'an. We will progressively lead them [to punishment] from where they do not know.

44 Fatharnee waman yukaththibu bihatha alhadeethi sanastadrijuhum min haythu la yaAAlamoona

45 Yet I bear with them, for lo! My scheme is firm.

45 And I will give them time. Indeed, My plan is firm.

45 Waomlee lahum inna kaydee mateenun

46 Or dost thou (Muhammad) ask a fee from them so that they are heavily taxed ?

46 Or do you ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down?

46 Am tasaluhum ajran fahum min maghramin muthqaloona

47 Or is the Unseen theirs that they can write (thereof) ?

47 Or have they [knowledge of] the unseen, so they write [it] down?

47 Am AAindahumu alghaybu fahum yaktuboona

48 But wait thou for thy Lord's decree, and be not like him of the fish, who cried out in despair.

48 Then be patient for the decision of your Lord, [O Muhammad], and be not like the companion of the fish when he called out while he was distressed.

48 Faisbir lihukmi rabbika wala takun kasahibi alhooti ith nada wahuwa makthoomun

49 Had it not been that favour from his Lord had reached him he surely had been cast into the wilderness while he was reprobate.

49 If not that a favor from his Lord overtook him, he would have been thrown onto the naked shore while he was censured.

49 Lawla an tadarakahu niAAmatun min rabbihi lanubitha bialAAarai wahuwa mathmoomun

50 But his Lord chose him and placed him among the righteous.

50 And his Lord chose him and made him of the righteous.

50 Faijtabahu rabbuhu fajaAAalahu mina alssaliheena

51 And lo! those who disbelieve would fain disconcert thee with their eyes when they hear the Reminder, and they say: Lo! he is indeed mad;

51 And indeed, those who disbelieve would almost make you slip with their eyes when they hear the message, and they say, "Indeed, he is mad."

51 Wain yakadu allatheena kafaroo layuzliqoonaka biabsarihim lamma samiAAoo alththikra wayaqooloona innahu lamajnoonun

52 When it is naught else than a Reminder to creation.

52 But it is not except a reminder to the worlds.

52 Wama huwa illa thikrun lilAAalameena
