আন্ নমল (পিঁপড়া)

1 Ta, Seen. These are the verses of the Qur'an and a clear Book

1 Taseen tilka ayatu alqurani wakitabin mubeenin

2 As guidance and good tidings for the believers

2 Hudan wabushra lilmumineena

3 Who establish prayer and give zakah, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith].

3 Allatheena yuqeemoona alssalata wayutoona alzzakata wahum bialakhirati hum yooqinoona

4 Indeed, for those who do not believe in the Hereafter, We have made pleasing to them their deeds, so they wander blindly.

4 Inna allatheena la yuminoona bialakhirati zayyanna lahum aAAmalahum fahum yaAAmahoona

5 Those are the ones for whom there will be the worst of punishment, and in the Hereafter they are the greatest losers.

5 Olaika allatheena lahum sooo alAAathabi wahum fee alakhirati humu alakhsaroona

6 And indeed, [O Muhammad], you receive the Qur'an from one Wise and Knowing.

6 Wainnaka latulaqqa alqurana min ladun hakeemin AAaleemin

7 [Mention] when Moses said to his family, "Indeed, I have perceived a fire. I will bring you from there information or will bring you a burning torch that you may warm yourselves."

7 Ith qala moosa liahlihi innee anastu naran saateekum minha bikhabarin aw ateekum bishihabin qabasin laAAallakum tastaloona

8 But when he came to it, he was called, "Blessed is whoever is at the fire and whoever is around it. And exalted is Allah, Lord of the worlds.

8 Falamma jaaha noodiya an boorika man fee alnnari waman hawlaha wasubhana Allahi rabbi alAAalameena

9 O Moses, indeed it is I - Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise."

9 Ya moosa innahu ana Allahu alAAazeezu alhakeemu

10 And [he was told], "Throw down your staff." But when he saw it writhing as if it were a snake, he turned in flight and did not return. [Allah said], "O Moses, fear not. Indeed, in My presence the messengers do not fear.

10 Waalqi AAasaka falamma raaha tahtazzu kaannaha jannun walla mudbiran walam yuAAaqqib ya moosa la takhaf innee la yakhafu ladayya almursaloona

11 Otherwise, he who wrongs, then substitutes good after evil - indeed, I am Forgiving and Merciful.

11 Illa man thalama thumma baddala husnan baAAda sooin fainnee ghafoorun raheemun

12 And put your hand into the opening of your garment [at the breast]; it will come out white without disease. [These are] among the nine signs [you will take] to Pharaoh and his people. Indeed, they have been a people defiantly disobedient."

12 Waadkhil yadaka fee jaybika takhruj baydaa min ghayri sooin fee tisAAi ayatin ila firAAawna waqawmihi innahum kanoo qawman fasiqeena

13 But when there came to them Our visible signs, they said, "This is obvious magic."

13 Falamma jaathum ayatuna mubsiratan qaloo hatha sihrun mubeenun

14 And they rejected them, while their [inner] selves were convinced thereof, out of injustice and haughtiness. So see how was the end of the corrupters.

14 Wajahadoo biha waistayqanatha anfusuhum thulman waAAuluwwan faonthur kayfa kana AAaqibatu almufsideena

15 And We had certainly given to David and Solomon knowledge, and they said, "Praise [is due] to Allah, who has favored us over many of His believing servants."

15 Walaqad atayna dawooda wasulaymana AAilman waqala alhamdu lillahi allathee faddalana AAala katheerin min AAibadihi almumineena

16 And Solomon inherited David. He said, "O people, we have been taught the language of birds, and we have been given from all things. Indeed, this is evident bounty."

16 Wawaritha sulaymanu dawooda waqala ya ayyuha alnnasu AAullimna mantiqa alttayri waooteena min kulli shayin inna hatha lahuwa alfadlu almubeenu

17 And gathered for Solomon were his soldiers of the jinn and men and birds, and they were [marching] in rows.

17 Wahushira lisulaymana junooduhu mina aljinni waalinsi waalttayri fahum yoozaAAoona

18 Until, when they came upon the valley of the ants, an ant said, "O ants, enter your dwellings that you not be crushed by Solomon and his soldiers while they perceive not."

18 Hatta itha ataw AAala wadi alnnamli qalat namlatun ya ayyuha alnnamlu odkhuloo masakinakum la yahtimannakum sulaymanu wajunooduhu wahum la yashAAuroona

19 So [Solomon] smiled, amused at her speech, and said, "My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And admit me by Your mercy into [the ranks of] Your righteous servants."

19 Fatabassama dahikan min qawliha waqala rabbi awziAAnee an ashkura niAAmataka allatee anAAamta AAalayya waAAala walidayya waan aAAmala salihan tardahu waadkhilnee birahmatika fee AAibadika alssaliheena

20 And he took attendance of the birds and said, "Why do I not see the hoopoe - or is he among the absent?

20 Watafaqqada alttayra faqala ma liya la ara alhudhuda am kana mina alghaibeena

21 I will surely punish him with a severe punishment or slaughter him unless he brings me clear authorization."

21 LaoAAaththibannahu AAathaban shadeedan aw laathbahannahu aw layatiyannee bisultanin mubeenin

22 But the hoopoe stayed not long and said, "I have encompassed [in knowledge] that which you have not encompassed, and I have come to you from Sheba with certain news.

22 Famakatha ghayra baAAeedin faqala ahattu bima lam tuhit bihi wajituka min sabain binabain yaqeenin

23 Indeed, I found [there] a woman ruling them, and she has been given of all things, and she has a great throne.

23 Innee wajadtu imraatan tamlikuhum waootiyat min kulli shayin walaha AAarshun AAatheemun

24 I found her and her people prostrating to the sun instead of Allah, and Satan has made their deeds pleasing to them and averted them from [His] way, so they are not guided,

24 Wajadtuha waqawmaha yasjudoona lilshshamsi min dooni Allahi wazayyana lahumu alshshaytanu aAAmalahum fasaddahum AAani alssabeeli fahum la yahtadoona

25 [And] so they do not prostrate to Allah, who brings forth what is hidden within the heavens and the earth and knows what you conceal and what you declare -

25 Alla yasjudoo lillahi allathee yukhriju alkhabaa fee alssamawati waalardi wayaAAlamu ma tukhfoona wama tuAAlinoona

26 Allah - there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Great Throne."

26 Allahu la ilaha illa huwa rabbu alAAarshi alAAatheemi

27 [Solomon] said, "We will see whether you were truthful or were of the liars.

27 Qala sananthuru asadaqta am kunta mina alkathibeena

28 Take this letter of mine and deliver it to them. Then leave them and see what [answer] they will return."

28 Ithhab bikitabee hatha faalqih ilayhim thumma tawalla AAanhum faonthur matha yarjiAAoona

29 She said, "O eminent ones, indeed, to me has been delivered a noble letter.

29 Qalat ya ayyuha almalao innee olqiya ilayya kitabun kareemun

30 Indeed, it is from Solomon, and indeed, it reads: 'In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful,

30 Innahu min sulaymana wainnahu bismi Allahi alrrahmani alrraheemi

31 Be not haughty with me but come to me in submission [as Muslims].' "

31 Alla taAAloo AAalayya watoonee muslimeena

32 She said, "O eminent ones, advise me in my affair. I would not decide a matter until you witness [for] me."

32 Qalat ya ayyuha almalao aftoonee fee amree ma kuntu qatiAAatan amran hatta tashhadoona

33 They said, "We are men of strength and of great military might, but the command is yours, so see what you will command."

33 Qaloo nahnu oloo quwwatin waoloo basin shadeedin waalamru ilayki faonthuree matha tamureena

34 She said, "Indeed kings - when they enter a city, they ruin it and render the honored of its people humbled. And thus do they do.

34 Qalat inna almulooka itha dakhaloo qaryatan afsadooha wajaAAaloo aAAizzata ahliha athillatan wakathalika yafAAaloona

35 But indeed, I will send to them a gift and see with what [reply] the messengers will return."

35 Wainnee mursilatun ilayhim bihadiyyatin fanathiratun bima yarjiAAu almursaloona

36 So when they came to Solomon, he said, "Do you provide me with wealth? But what Allah has given me is better than what He has given you. Rather, it is you who rejoice in your gift.

36 Falamma jaa sulaymana qala atumiddoonani bimalin fama ataniya Allahu khayrun mimma atakum bal antum bihadiyyatikum tafrahoona

37 Return to them, for we will surely come to them with soldiers that they will be powerless to encounter, and we will surely expel them therefrom in humiliation, and they will be debased."

37 IrjiAA ilayhim falanatiyannahum bijunoodin la qibala lahum biha walanukhrijannahum minha athillatan wahum saghiroona

38 [Solomon] said, "O assembly [of jinn], which of you will bring me her throne before they come to me in submission?"

38 Qala ya ayyuha almalao ayyukum yateenee biAAarshiha qabla an yatoonee muslimeena

39 A powerful one from among the jinn said, "I will bring it to you before you rise from your place, and indeed, I am for this [task] strong and trustworthy."

39 Qala AAifreetun mina aljinni ana ateeka bihi qabla an taqooma min maqamika wainne AAalayhi laqawiyyun ameenun

40 Said one who had knowledge from the Scripture, "I will bring it to you before your glance returns to you." And when [Solomon] saw it placed before him, he said, "This is from the favor of my Lord to test me whether I will be grateful or ungrateful. And whoever is grateful - his gratitude is only for [the benefit of] himself. And whoever is ungrateful - then indeed, my Lord is Free of need and Generous."

40 Qala allathee AAindahu AAilmun mina alkitabi ana ateeka bihi qabla an yartadda ilayka tarfuka falamma raahu mustaqirran AAindahu qala hatha min fadli rabbee liyabluwanee aashkuru am akfuru waman shakara fainnama yashkuru linafsihi waman kafara fainna rabbee ghaniyyun kareemun

41 He said, "Disguise for her her throne; we will see whether she will be guided [to truth] or will be of those who is not guided."

41 Qala nakkiroo laha AAarshaha nanthur atahtadee am takoonu mina allatheena la yahtadoona

42 So when she arrived, it was said [to her], "Is your throne like this?" She said, "[It is] as though it was it." [Solomon said], "And we were given knowledge before her, and we have been Muslims [in submission to Allah].

42 Falamma jaat qeela ahakatha AAarshuki qalat kaannahu huwa waooteena alAAilma min qabliha wakunna muslimeena

43 And that which she was worshipping other than Allah had averted her [from submission to Him]. Indeed, she was from a disbelieving people."

43 Wasaddaha ma kanat taAAbudu min dooni Allahi innaha kanat min qawmin kafireena

44 She was told, "Enter the palace." But when she saw it, she thought it was a body of water and uncovered her shins [to wade through]. He said, "Indeed, it is a palace [whose floor is] made smooth with glass." She said, "My Lord, indeed I have wronged myself, and I submit with Solomon to Allah, Lord of the worlds."

44 Qeela laha odkhulee alssarha falamma raathu hasibathu lujjatan wakashafat AAan saqayha qala innahu sarhun mumarradun min qawareera qalat rabbi innee thalamtu nafsee waaslamtu maAAa sulaymana lillahi rabbi alAAalameena

45 And We had certainly sent to Thamud their brother Salih, [saying], "Worship Allah," and at once they were two parties conflicting.

45 Walaqad arsalna ila thamooda akhahum salihan ani oAAbudoo Allaha faitha hum fareeqani yakhtasimoona

46 He said, "O my people, why are you impatient for evil instead of good? Why do you not seek forgiveness of Allah that you may receive mercy?"

46 Qala ya qawmi lima tastaAAjiloona bialssayyiati qabla alhasanati lawla tastaghfiroona Allaha laAAallakum turhamoona

47 They said, "We consider you a bad omen, you and those with you." He said, "Your omen is with Allah. Rather, you are a people being tested."

47 Qaloo ittayyarna bika wabiman maAAaka qala tairukum AAinda Allahi bal antum qawmun tuftanoona

48 And there were in the city nine family heads causing corruption in the land and not amending [its affairs].

48 Wakana fee almadeenati tisAAatu rahtin yufsidoona fee alardi wala yuslihoona

49 They said, "Take a mutual oath by Allah that we will kill him by night, he and his family. Then we will say to his executor, 'We did not witness the destruction of his family, and indeed, we are truthful.' "

49 Qaloo taqasamoo biAllahi lanubayyitannahu waahlahu thumma lanaqoolanna liwaliyyihi ma shahidna mahlika ahlihi wainna lasadiqoona

50 And they planned a plan, and We planned a plan, while they perceived not.

50 Wamakaroo makran wamakarna makran wahum la yashAAuroona

51 Then look how was the outcome of their plan - that We destroyed them and their people, all.

51 Faonthur kayfa kana AAaqibatu makrihim anna dammarnahum waqawmahum ajmaAAeena

52 So those are their houses, desolate because of the wrong they had done. Indeed in that is a sign for people who know.

52 Fatilka buyootuhum khawiyatan bima thalamoo inna fee thalika laayatan liqawmin yaAAlamoona

53 And We saved those who believed and used to fear Allah.

53 Waanjayna allatheena amanoo wakanoo yattaqoona

54 And [mention] Lot, when he said to his people, "Do you commit immorality while you are seeing?

54 Walootan ith qala liqawmihi atatoona alfahishata waantum tubsiroona

55 Do you indeed approach men with desire instead of women? Rather, you are a people behaving ignorantly."

55 Ainnakum latatoona alrrijala shahwatan min dooni alnnisai bal antum qawmun tajhaloona

56 But the answer of his people was not except that they said, "Expel the family of Lot from your city. Indeed, they are people who keep themselves pure."

56 Fama kana jawaba qawmihi illa an qaloo akhrijoo ala lootin min qaryatikum innahum onasun yatatahharoona

57 So We saved him and his family, except for his wife; We destined her to be of those who remained behind.

57 Faanjaynahu waahlahu illa imraatahu qaddarnaha mina alghabireena

58 And We rained upon them a rain [of stones], and evil was the rain of those who were warned.

58 Waamtarna AAalayhim mataran fasaa mataru almunthareena

59 Say, [O Muhammad], "Praise be to Allah, and peace upon His servants whom He has chosen. Is Allah better or what they associate with Him?"

59 Quli alhamdu lillahi wasalamun AAala AAibadihi allatheena istafa allahu khayrun amma yushrikoona

60 [More precisely], is He [not best] who created the heavens and the earth and sent down for you rain from the sky, causing to grow thereby gardens of joyful beauty which you could not [otherwise] have grown the trees thereof? Is there a deity with Allah? [No], but they are a people who ascribe equals [to Him].

60 Amman khalaqa alssamawati waalarda waanzala lakum mina alssamai maan faanbatna bihi hadaiqa thata bahjatin ma kana lakum an tunbitoo shajaraha ailahun maAAa Allahi bal hum qawmun yaAAdiloona

61 Is He [not best] who made the earth a stable ground and placed within it rivers and made for it firmly set mountains and placed between the two seas a barrier? Is there a deity with Allah? [No], but most of them do not know.

61 Amman jaAAala alarda qararan wajaAAala khilalaha anharan wajaAAala laha rawasiya wajaAAala bayna albahrayni hajizan ailahun maAAa Allahi bal aktharuhum la yaAAlamoona

62 Is He [not best] who responds to the desperate one when he calls upon Him and removes evil and makes you inheritors of the earth? Is there a deity with Allah? Little do you remember.

62 Amman yujeebu almudtarra itha daAAahu wayakshifu alssooa wayajAAalukum khulafaa alardi ailahun maAAa Allahi qaleelan ma tathakkaroona

63 Is He [not best] who guides you through the darknesses of the land and sea and who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy? Is there a deity with Allah? High is Allah above whatever they associate with Him.

63 Amman yahdeekum fee thulumati albarri waalbahri waman yursilu alrriyaha bushran bayna yaday rahmatihi ailahun maAAa Allahi taAAala Allahu AAamma yushrikoona

64 Is He [not best] who begins creation and then repeats it and who provides for you from the heaven and earth? Is there a deity with Allah? Say, "Produce your proof, if you should be truthful."

64 Amman yabdao alkhalqa thumma yuAAeeduhu waman yarzuqukum mina alssamai waalardi ailahun maAAa Allahi qul hatoo burhanakum in kuntum sadiqeena

65 Say, "None in the heavens and earth knows the unseen except Allah, and they do not perceive when they will be resurrected."

65 Qul la yaAAlamu man fee alssamawati waalardi alghayba illa Allahu wama yashAAuroona ayyana yubAAathoona

66 Rather, their knowledge is arrested concerning the Hereafter. Rather, they are in doubt about it. Rather, they are, concerning it, blind.

66 Bali iddaraka AAilmuhum fee alakhirati bal hum fee shakkin minha bal hum minha AAamoona

67 And those who disbelieve say, "When we have become dust as well as our forefathers, will we indeed be brought out [of the graves]?

67 Waqala allatheena kafaroo aitha kunna turaban waabaona ainna lamukhrajoona

68 We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before. This is not but legends of the former peoples."

68 Laqad wuAAidna hatha nahnu waabaona min qablu in hatha illa asateeru alawwaleena

69 Say, [O Muhammad], "Travel through the land and observe how was the end of the criminals."

69 Qul seeroo fee alardi faonthuroo kayfa kana AAaqibatu almujrimeena

70 And grieve not over them or be in distress from what they conspire.

70 Wala tahzan AAalayhim wala takun fee dayqin mimma yamkuroona

71 And they say, "When is [the fulfillment of] this promise, if you should be truthful?"

71 Wayaqooloona mata hatha alwaAAdu in kuntum sadiqeena

72 Say, "Perhaps it is close behind you - some of that for which you are impatient.

72 Qul AAasa an yakoona radifa lakum baAAdu allathee tastaAAjiloona

73 And indeed, your Lord is full of bounty for the people, but most of them do not show gratitude."

73 Wainna rabbaka lathoo fadlin AAala alnnasi walakinna aktharahum la yashkuroona

74 And indeed, your Lord knows what their breasts conceal and what they declare.

74 Wainna rabbaka layaAAlamu ma tukinnu sudooruhum wama yuAAlinoona

75 And there is nothing concealed within the heaven and the earth except that it is in a clear Register.

75 Wama min ghaibatin fee alssamai waalardi illa fee kitabin mubeenin

76 Indeed, this Qur'an relates to the Children of Israel most of that over which they disagree.

76 Inna hatha alqurana yaqussu AAala banee israeela akthara allathee hum feehi yakhtalifoona

77 And indeed, it is guidance and mercy for the believers.

77 Wainnahu lahudan warahmatun lilmumineena

78 Indeed, your Lord will judge between them by His [wise] judgement. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.

78 Inna rabbaka yaqdee baynahum bihukmihi wahuwa alAAazeezu alAAaleemu

79 So rely upon Allah; indeed, you are upon the clear truth.

79 Fatawakkal AAala Allahi innaka AAala alhaqqi almubeeni

80 Indeed, you will not make the dead hear, nor will you make the deaf hear the call when they have turned their backs retreating.

80 Innaka la tusmiAAu almawta wala tusmiAAu alssumma aldduAAaa itha wallaw mudbireena

81 And you cannot guide the blind away from their error. You will only make hear those who believe in Our verses so they are Muslims [submitting to Allah].

81 Wama anta bihadee alAAumyi AAan dalalatihim in tusmiAAu illa man yuminu biayatina fahum muslimoona

82 And when the word befalls them, We will bring forth for them a creature from the earth speaking to them, [saying] that the people were, of Our verses, not certain [in faith].

82 Waitha waqaAAa alqawlu AAalayhim akhrajna lahum dabbatan mina alardi tukallimuhum anna alnnasa kanoo biayatina la yooqinoona

83 And [warn of] the Day when We will gather from every nation a company of those who deny Our signs, and they will be [driven] in rows

83 Wayawma nahshuru min kulli ommatin fawjan mimman yukaththibu biayatina fahum yoozaAAoona

84 Until, when they arrive [at the place of Judgement], He will say, "Did you deny My signs while you encompassed them not in knowledge, or what [was it that] you were doing?"

84 Hatta itha jaoo qala akaththabtum biayatee walam tuheetoo biha AAilman ammatha kuntum taAAmaloona

85 And the decree will befall them for the wrong they did, and they will not [be able to] speak.

85 WawaqaAAa alqawlu AAalayhim bima thalamoo fahum la yantiqoona

86 Do they not see that We made the night that they may rest therein and the day giving sight? Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe.

86 Alam yaraw anna jaAAalna allayla liyaskunoo feehi waalnnahara mubsiran inna fee thalika laayatin liqawmin yuminoona

87 And [warn of] the Day the Horn will be blown, and whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth will be terrified except whom Allah wills. And all will come to Him humbled.

87 Wayawma yunfakhu fee alssoori fafaziAAa man fee alssamawati waman fee alardi illa man shaa Allahu wakullun atawhu dakhireena

88 And you see the mountains, thinking them rigid, while they will pass as the passing of clouds. [It is] the work of Allah, who perfected all things. Indeed, He is Acquainted with that which you do.

88 Watara aljibala tahsabuha jamidatan wahiya tamurru marra alssahabi sunAAa Allahi allathee atqana kulla shayin innahu khabeerun bima tafAAaloona

89 Whoever comes [at Judgement] with a good deed will have better than it, and they, from the terror of that Day, will be safe.

89 Man jaa bialhasanati falahu khayrun minha wahum min fazaAAin yawmaithin aminoona

90 And whoever comes with an evil deed - their faces will be overturned into the Fire, [and it will be said], "Are you recompensed except for what you used to do?"

90 Waman jaa bialssayyiati fakubbat wujoohuhum fee alnnari hal tujzawna illa ma kuntum taAAmaloona

91 [Say, O Muhammad], "I have only been commanded to worship the Lord of this city, who made it sacred and to whom [belongs] all things. And I am commanded to be of the Muslims [those who submit to Allah]

91 Innama omirtu an aAAbuda rabba hathihi albaldati allathee harramaha walahu kullu shayin waomirtu an akoona mina almuslimeena

92 And to recite the Qur'an." And whoever is guided is only guided for [the benefit of] himself; and whoever strays - say, "I am only [one] of the warners."

92 Waan atluwa alqurana famani ihtada fainnama yahtadee linafsihi waman dalla faqul innama ana mina almunthireena

93 And say, "[All] praise is [due] to Allah. He will show you His signs, and you will recognize them. And your Lord is not unaware of what you do."

93 Waquli alhamdu lillahi sayureekum ayatihi fataAArifoonaha wama rabbuka bighafilin AAamma taAAmaloona
