1 Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created -

1 Iqra biismi rabbika allathee khalaqa

2 Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood:

3 Proclaim! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful, -

3 Iqra warabbuka alakramu

4 He Who taught (the use of) the pen, -

4 Allathee AAallama bialqalami

5 Taught man that which he knew not.

5 AAallama alinsana ma lam yaAAlam

6 Nay, but man doth transgress all bounds,

6 Kalla inna alinsana layatgha

7 In that he looketh upon himself as self - sufficient.

7 An raahu istaghna

8 Verily, to thy Lord is the return (of all).

8 Inna ila rabbika alrrujAAa

9 Seest thou one who forbids -

16 Nasiyatin kathibatin khatiatin

17 Then, let him call (for help) to his council (of comrades):

17 FalyadAAu nadiyahu

18 We will call on the angels of punishment (to deal with him)!

18 SanadAAu alzzabaniyata
