2 By the clear Book,

2 I swear by the Book that makes things clear:

2 Waalkitabi almubeeni

3 Indeed, We have made it an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand.

3 Surely We have made it an Arabic Quran that you may understand.

3 Inna jaAAalnahu quranan AAarabiyyan laAAallakum taAAqiloona

4 And indeed it is, in the Mother of the Book with Us, exalted and full of wisdom.

4 And surely it is in the original of the Book with Us, truly elevated, full of wisdom.

4 Wainnahu fee ommi alkitabi ladayna laAAaliyyun hakeemun

5 Then should We turn the message away, disregarding you, because you are a transgressing people?

5 What! shall We then turn away the reminder from you altogether because you are an extravagant people?

5 Afanadribu AAankumu alththikra safhan an kuntum qawman musrifeena

6 And how many a prophet We sent among the former peoples,

6 And how many a prophet have We sent among the ancients.

6 Wakam arsalna min nabiyyin fee alawwaleena

7 But there would not come to them a prophet except that they used to ridicule him.

7 And there came not to them a prophet but they mocked at him.

7 Wama yateehim min nabiyyin illa kanoo bihi yastahzioona

8 And We destroyed greater than them in [striking] power, and the example of the former peoples has preceded.

8 Then We destroyed those who were stronger than these in prowess, and the case of the ancients has gone before,

8 Faahlakna ashadda minhum batshan wamada mathalu alawwaleena

9 And if you should ask them, "Who has created the heavens and the earth?" they would surely say, "They were created by the Exalted in Might, the Knowing."

9 And if you should ask them, Who created the heavens and the earth? they would most certainly say: The Mighty, the Knowing One, has created them;

9 Walain saaltahum man khalaqa alssamawati waalarda layaqoolunna khalaqahunna alAAazeezu alAAaleemu

10 [The one] who has made for you the earth a bed and made for you upon it roads that you might be guided

10 He Who made the earth a resting - place for you, and made in it ways for you that you may go aright;

10 Allathee jaAAala lakumu alarda mahdan wajaAAala lakum feeha subulan laAAallakum tahtadoona

11 And who sends down rain from the sky in measured amounts, and We revive thereby a dead land - thus will you be brought forth -

11 And He Who sends down water from the cloud according to a measure, then We raise to life thereby a dead country, even thus shall you be brought forth;

11 Waallathee nazzala mina alssamai maan biqadarin faansharna bihi baldatan maytan kathalika tukhrajoona

12 And who created the species, all of them, and has made for you of ships and animals those which you mount.

12 And He Who created pairs of all things, and made for you of the ships and the cattle what you ride on,

12 Waallathee khalaqa alazwaja kullaha wajaAAala lakum mina alfulki waalanAAami ma tarkaboona

13 That you may settle yourselves upon their backs and then remember the favor of your Lord when you have settled upon them and say. "Exalted is He who has subjected this to us, and we could not have [otherwise] subdued it.

13 That you may firmly sit on their backs, then remember the favor of your Lord when you are firmly seated thereon, and say: Glory be to Him Who made this subservient to us and we were not able to do it

13 Litastawoo AAala thuhoorihi thumma tathkuroo niAAmata rabbikum itha istawaytum AAalayhi wataqooloo subhana allathee sakhkhara lana hatha wama kunna lahu muqrineena

14 And indeed we, to our Lord, will [surely] return."

14 And surely to our Lord we must return.

14 Wainna ila rabbina lamunqaliboona

15 But they have attributed to Him from His servants a portion. Indeed, man is clearly ungrateful.

15 And they assign to Him a part of His servants; man, to be sure, is clearly ungrateful.

15 WajaAAaloo lahu min AAibadihi juzan inna alinsana lakafoorun mubeenun

16 Or has He taken, out of what He has created, daughters and chosen you for [having] sons?

16 What! has He taken daughters to Himself of what He Himself creates and chosen you to have sons?

16 Ami ittakhatha mimma yakhluqu banatin waasfakum bialbaneena

17 And when one of them is given good tidings of that which he attributes to the Most Merciful in comparison, his face becomes dark, and he suppresses grief.

17 And when one of them is given news of that of which he sets up as a likeness for the Beneficent Allah, his face becomes black and he is full of rage.

17 Waitha bushshira ahaduhum bima daraba lilrrahmani mathalan thalla wajhuhu muswaddan wahuwa katheemun

18 So is one brought up in ornaments while being during conflict unevident [attributed to Allah]?

18 What! that which is made in ornaments and which in contention is unable to make plain speech!

18 Awaman yunashshao fee alhilyati wahuwa fee alkhisami ghayru mubeenin

19 And they have made the angels, who are servants of the Most Merciful, females. Did they witness their creation? Their testimony will be recorded, and they will be questioned.

19 And they make the angels - - them who are the servants of the Beneficent Allah - - female (divinities). What! did they witness their creation? Their evidence shall be written down and they shall be questioned.

19 WajaAAaloo almalaikata allatheena hum AAibadu alrrahmani inathan ashahidoo khalqahum satuktabu shahadatuhum wayusaloona

20 And they said, "If the Most Merciful had willed, we would not have worshipped them." They have of that no knowledge. They are not but falsifying.

20 And they say: If the Beneficent Allah had pleased, we should never have worshipped them. They have no knowledge of this; they only lie.

20 Waqaloo law shaa alrrahmanu ma AAabadnahum ma lahum bithalika min AAilmin in hum illa yakhrusoona

21 Or have We given them a book before the Qur'an to which they are adhering?

21 Or have We given them a book before it so that they hold fast to it?

21 Am ataynahum kitaban min qablihi fahum bihi mustamsikoona

22 Rather, they say, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are in their footsteps [rightly] guided."

22 Nay! they say: We found our fathers on a course, and surely we are guided by their footsteps.

22 Bal qaloo inna wajadna abaana AAala ommatin wainna AAala atharihim muhtadoona

23 And similarly, We did not send before you any warner into a city except that its affluent said, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are, in their footsteps, following."

23 And thus, We did not send before you any warner in a town, but those who led easy lives in it said: Surely we found our fathers on a course, and surely we are followers of their footsteps.

23 Wakathalika ma arsalna min qablika fee qaryatin min natheerin illa qala mutrafooha inna wajadna abaana AAala ommatin wainna AAala atharihim muqtadoona

24 [Each warner] said, "Even if I brought you better guidance than that [religion] upon which you found your fathers?" They said, "Indeed we, in that with which you were sent, are disbelievers."

24 (The warner) said: What! even if I bring to you a better guide than that on which you found your fathers? They said: Surely we are unbelievers in that with which you are sent.

24 Qala awalaw jitukum biahda mimma wajadtum AAalayhi abaakum qaloo inna bima orsiltum bihi kafiroona

25 So we took retribution from them; then see how was the end of the deniers.

25 So We inflicted retribution on them, then see how was the end of the rejecters.

25 Faintaqamna minhum faonthur kayfa kana AAaqibatu almukaththibeena

26 And [mention, O Muhammad], when Abraham said to his father and his people, "Indeed, I am disassociated from that which you worship

26 And when Ibrahim said to his father and his people: Surely I am clear of what you worship,

26 Waith qala ibraheemu liabeehi waqawmihi innanee baraon mimma taAAbudoona

27 Except for He who created me; and indeed, He will guide me."

27 Save Him Who created me, for surely He will guide me.

27 Illa allathee fataranee fainnahu sayahdeeni

28 And he made it a word remaining among his descendants that they might return [to it].

28 And he made it a word to continue in his posterity that they may return.

28 WajaAAalaha kalimatan baqiyatan fee AAaqibihi laAAallahum yarjiAAoona

29 However, I gave enjoyment to these [people of Makkah] and their fathers until there came to them the truth and a clear Messenger.

29 Nay! I gave them and their fathers to enjoy until there came to them the truth and an Apostle making manifest (the truth).

29 Bal mattaAAtu haolai waabaahum hatta jaahumu alhaqqu warasoolun mubeenun

30 But when the truth came to them, they said, "This is magic, and indeed we are, concerning it, disbelievers."

30 And when there came to them the truth they said: This is magic, and surely we are disbelievers in it.

30 Walamma jaahumu alhaqqu qaloo hatha sihrun wainna bihi kafiroona

31 And they said, "Why was this Qur'an not sent down upon a great man from [one of] the two cities?"

31 And they say: Why was not this Quran revealed to a man of importance in the two towns?

31 Waqaloo lawla nuzzila hatha alquranu AAala rajulin mina alqaryatayni AAatheemun

32 Do they distribute the mercy of your Lord? It is We who have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of this world and have raised some of them above others in degrees [of rank] that they may make use of one another for service. But the mercy of your Lord is better than whatever they accumulate.

32 Will they distribute the mercy of your Lord? We distribute among them their livelihood in the life of this world, and We j have exalted some of them above others in degrees, that some of them may take others in subjection; and the mercy of your Lord is better than what they amass.

32 Ahum yaqsimoona rahmata rabbika nahnu qasamna baynahum maAAeeshatahum fee alhayati alddunya warafaAAna baAAdahum fawqa baAAdin darajatin liyattakhitha baAAduhum baAAdan sukhriyyan warahmatu rabbika khayrun mimma yajmaAAoona

33 And if it were not that the people would become one community [of disbelievers], We would have made for those who disbelieve in the Most Merciful - for their houses - ceilings and stairways of silver upon which to mount

33 And were it not that all people had been a single nation, We would certainly have assigned to those who disbelieve in the Beneficent Allah (to make) of silver the roofs of their houses and the stairs by which they ascend.

33 Walawla an yakoona alnnasu ommatan wahidatan lajaAAalna liman yakfuru bialrrahmani libuyootihim suqufan min fiddatin wamaAAarija AAalayha yathharoona

34 And for their houses - doors and couches [of silver] upon which to recline

34 And the doors of their houses and the couches on which they recline,

34 Walibuyootihim abwaban wasururan AAalayha yattakioona

35 And gold ornament. But all that is not but the enjoyment of worldly life. And the Hereafter with your Lord is for the righteous.

35 And (other) embellishments of gold; and all this is naught but provision of this world's life, and the hereafter is with your Lord only for those who guard (against evil).

35 Wazukhrufan wain kullu thalika lamma mataAAu alhayati alddunya waalakhiratu AAinda rabbika lilmuttaqeena

36 And whoever is blinded from remembrance of the Most Merciful - We appoint for him a devil, and he is to him a companion.

36 And whoever turns himself away from the remembrance of the Beneficent Allah, We appoint for him a Shaitan, so he becomes his associate.

36 Waman yaAAshu AAan thikri alrrahmani nuqayyid lahu shaytanan fahuwa lahu qareenun

37 And indeed, the devils avert them from the way [of guidance] while they think that they are [rightly] guided

37 And most surely they turn them away from the path, and they think that they are guided aright:

37 Wainnahum layasuddoonahum AAani alssabeeli wayahsaboona annahum muhtadoona

38 Until, when he comes to Us [at Judgement], he says [to his companion], "Oh, I wish there was between me and you the distance between the east and west - how wretched a companion."

38 Until when he comes to Us, he says: O would that between me and you there were the distance of the East and the West; so evil is the associate!

38 Hatta itha jaana qala ya layta baynee wabaynaka buAAda almashriqayni fabisa alqareenu

39 And never will it benefit you that Day, when you have wronged, that you are [all] sharing in the punishment.

39 And since you were unjust, it will not profit you this day that you are sharers in the chastisement.

39 Walan yanfaAAakumu alyawma ith thalamtum annakum fee alAAathabi mushtarikoona

40 Then will you make the deaf hear, [O Muhammad], or guide the blind or he who is in clear error?

40 What! can you then make the deaf to hear or guide the blind and him who is in clear error?

40 Afaanta tusmiAAu alssumma aw tahdee alAAumya waman kana fee dalalin mubeenin

41 And whether [or not] We take you away [in death], indeed, We will take retribution upon them.

41 But if We should take you away, still We shall inflict retribution on them;

41 Faimma nathhabanna bika fainna minhum muntaqimoona

42 Or whether [or not] We show you that which We have promised them, indeed, We are Perfect in Ability.

42 Rather We will certainly show you that which We have promised them; for surely We are the possessors of full power over them.

42 Aw nuriyannaka allathee waAAadnahum fainna AAalayhim muqtadiroona

43 So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path.

43 Therefore hold fast to that which has been revealed to you; surely you are on the right path.

43 Faistamsik biallathee oohiya ilayka innaka AAala siratin mustaqeemin

44 And indeed, it is a remembrance for you and your people, and you [all] are going to be questioned.

44 And most surely it is a reminder for you and your people, and you shall soon be questioned.

44 Wainnahu lathikrun laka waliqawmika wasawfa tusaloona

45 And ask those We sent before you of Our messengers; have We made besides the Most Merciful deities to be worshipped?

45 And ask those of Our apostles whom We sent before you: Did We ever appoint gods to be worshipped besides the Beneficent Allah?

45 Waisal man arsalna min qablika min rusulina ajaAAalna min dooni alrrahmani alihatan yuAAbadoona

46 And certainly did We send Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his establishment, and he said, "Indeed, I am the messenger of the Lord of the worlds."

46 And certainly We sent Musa with Our communications to Firon and his chiefs, so he said: Surely I am the apostle of the Lord of the worlds.

46 Walaqad arsalna moosa biayatina ila firAAawna wamalaihi faqala innee rasoolu rabbi alAAalameena

47 But when he brought them Our signs, at once they laughed at them.

47 But when he came to them with Our signs, lo! they laughed at them.

47 Falamma jaahum biayatina itha hum minha yadhakoona

48 And We showed them not a sign except that it was greater than its sister, and We seized them with affliction that perhaps they might return [to faith].

48 And We did not show them a sign but it was greater than its like, and We overtook them with chastisement that they may turn.

48 Wama nureehim min ayatin illa hiya akbaru min okhtiha waakhathnahum bialAAathabi laAAallahum yarjiAAoona

49 And they said [to Moses], "O magician, invoke for us your Lord by what He has promised you. Indeed, we will be guided."

49 And they said: O magician! call on your Lord for our sake, as He has made the covenant with you; we shall surely be the followers of the right way.

49 Waqaloo ya ayyuha alsahiru odAAu lana rabbaka bima AAahida AAindaka innana lamuhtadoona

50 But when We removed from them the affliction, at once they broke their word.

50 But when We removed from them the chastisement, lo! they broke the pledge.

50 Falamma kashafna AAanhumu alAAathaba itha hum yankuthoona

51 And Pharaoh called out among his people; he said, "O my people, does not the kingdom of Egypt belong to me, and these rivers flowing beneath me; then do you not see?

51 And Firon proclaimed amongst his people: O my people! is not the kingdom of Egypt mine? And these rivers flow beneath me; do you not then see?

51 Wanada firAAawnu fee qawmihi qala ya qawmi alaysa lee mulku misra wahathihi alanharu tajree min tahtee afala tubsiroona

52 Or am I [not] better than this one who is insignificant and hardly makes himself clear?

52 Nay! I am better than this fellow, who is contemptible, and who can hardly speak distinctly:

52 Am ana khayrun min hatha allathee huwa maheenun wala yakadu yubeenu

53 Then why have there not been placed upon him bracelets of gold or come with him the angels in conjunction?"

53 But why have not bracelets of gold been put upon him, or why have there not come with him angels as companions?

53 Falawla olqiya AAalayhi aswiratun min thahabin aw jaa maAAahu almalaikatu muqtarineena

54 So he bluffed his people, and they obeyed him. Indeed, they were [themselves] a people defiantly disobedient [of Allah].

54 So he incited his people to levity and they obeyed him: surely they were a transgressing people.

54 Faistakhaffa qawmahu faataAAoohu innahum kanoo qawman fasiqeena

55 And when they angered Us, We took retribution from them and drowned them all.

55 Then when they displeased Us, We inflicted a retribution on them, so We drowned them all together,

55 Falamma asafoona intaqamna minhum faaghraqnahum ajmaAAeena

56 And We made them a precedent and an example for the later peoples.

56 And We made them a precedent and example to the later generations.

56 FajaAAalnahum salafan wamathalan lilakhireena

57 And when the son of Mary was presented as an example, immediately your people laughed aloud.

57 And when a description of the son of Marium is given, lo! your people raise a clamor thereat.

57 Walamma duriba ibnu maryama mathalan itha qawmuka minhu yasiddoona

58 And they said, "Are your gods better, or is he?" They did not present the comparison except for [mere] argument. But, [in fact], they are a people prone to dispute.

58 And they say: Are our gods better, or is he? They do not set it forth to you save by way of disputation; nay, they are a contentious people.

58 Waqaloo aalihatuna khayrun am huwa ma daraboohu laka illa jadalan bal hum qawmun khasimoona

59 Jesus was not but a servant upon whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the Children of Israel.

59 He was naught but a servant on whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the children of Israel.

59 In huwa illa AAabdun anAAamna AAalayhi wajaAAalnahu mathalan libanee israeela

60 And if We willed, We could have made [instead] of you angels succeeding [one another] on the earth.

60 And if We please, We could make among you angels to be successors in the land.

60 Walaw nashao lajaAAalna minkum malaikatan fee alardi yakhlufoona

61 And indeed, Jesus will be [a sign for] knowledge of the Hour, so be not in doubt of it, and follow Me. This is a straight path.

61 And most surely it is a knowledge of the hour, therefore have no doubt about it and follow me: this is the right path.

61 Wainnahu laAAilmun lilssaAAati fala tamtarunna biha waittabiAAooni hatha siratun mustaqeemun

62 And never let Satan avert you. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.

62 And let not the Shaitan prevent you; surely he is your j open enemy.

62 Wala yasuddannakumu alshshaytanu innahu lakum AAaduwwun mubeenun

63 And when Jesus brought clear proofs, he said, "I have come to you with wisdom and to make clear to you some of that over which you differ, so fear Allah and obey me.

63 And when Isa came with clear arguments he said: I have come to you indeed with wisdom, and that I may make clear to you part of what you differ in; so be careful of (your duty to) Allah and obey me:

63 Walamma jaa AAeesa bialbayyinati qala qad jitukum bialhikmati waliobayyina lakum baAAda allathee takhtalifoona feehi faittaqoo Allaha waateeAAooni

64 Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. This is a straight path."

64 Surely Allah is my Lord and your Lord, therefore serve Him; this is the right path:

64 Inna Allaha huwa rabbee warabbukum faoAAbudoohu hatha siratun mustaqeemun

65 But the denominations from among them differed [and separated], so woe to those who have wronged from the punishment of a painful Day.

65 But parties from among them differed, so woe to those who were unjust because of the chastisement of a painful day.

65 Faikhtalafa alahzabu min baynihim fawaylun lillatheena thalamoo min AAathabi yawmin aleemin

66 Are they waiting except for the Hour to come upon them suddenly while they perceive not?

66 Do they wait for aught but the hour, that it should come! upon them all of a sudden while they do not perceive?

66 Hal yanthuroona illa alssaAAata an tatiyahum baghtatan wahum la yashAAuroona

67 Close friends, that Day, will be enemies to each other, except for the righteous

67 The friends shall on that day be enemies one to another, except those who guard (against evil).

67 Alakhillao yawmaithin baAAduhum libaAAdin AAaduwwun illa almuttaqeena

68 [To whom Allah will say], "O My servants, no fear will there be concerning you this Day, nor will you grieve,

68 O My servants! there is no fear for you this day, nor shall you grieve.

68 Ya AAibadi la khawfun AAalaykumu alyawma wala antum tahzanoona

69 [You] who believed in Our verses and were Muslims.

69 Those who believed in Our communications and were submissive:

69 Allatheena amanoo biayatina wakanoo muslimeena

70 Enter Paradise, you and your kinds, delighted."

70 Enter the garden, you and your wives; you shall be made happy.

70 Odkhuloo aljannata antum waazwajukum tuhbaroona

71 Circulated among them will be plates and vessels of gold. And therein is whatever the souls desire and [what] delights the eyes, and you will abide therein eternally.

71 There shall be sent round to them golden bowls and drinking - cups and therein shall be what their souls yearn after and (wherein) the eyes shall delight, and you shall abide therein.

71 Yutafu AAalayhim bisihafin min thahabin waakwabin wafeeha ma tashtaheehi alanfusu watalaththu alaAAyunu waantum feeha khalidoona

72 And that is Paradise which you are made to inherit for what you used to do.

72 And this is the garden which you are given as an inheritance on account of what you did.

72 Watilka aljannatu allatee oorithtumooha bima kuntum taAAmaloona

73 For you therein is much fruit from which you will eat.

73 For you therein are many fruits of which you shall eat.

73 Lakum feeha fakihatun katheeratun minha takuloona

74 Indeed, the criminals will be in the punishment of Hell, abiding eternally.

74 Surely the guilty shall abide in the chastisement of hell.

74 Inna almujrimeena fee AAathabi jahannama khalidoona

75 It will not be allowed to subside for them, and they, therein, are in despair.

75 It shall not be abated from them and they shall therein be despairing.

75 La yufattaru AAanhum wahum feehi mublisoona

76 And We did not wrong them, but it was they who were the wrongdoers.

76 And We are not unjust to them, but they themselves were unjust.

76 Wama thalamnahum walakin kanoo humu alththalimeena

77 And they will call, "O Malik, let your Lord put an end to us!" He will say, "Indeed, you will remain."

77 And they shall call out: O Malik! let your Lord make an end of us. He shall say: Surely you shall tarry.

77 Wanadaw ya maliku liyaqdi AAalayna rabbuka qala innakum makithoona

78 We had certainly brought you the truth, but most of you, to the truth, were averse.

78 Certainly We have brought you the truth, but most of you are averse to the truth.

78 Laqad jinakum bialhaqqi walakinna aktharakum lilhaqqi karihoona

79 Or have they devised [some] affair? But indeed, We are devising [a plan].

79 Or have they settled an affair? Then surely We are the settlers.

79 Am abramoo amran fainna mubrimoona

80 Or do they think that We hear not their secrets and their private conversations? Yes, [We do], and Our messengers are with them recording.

80 Or do they think that We do not hear what they conceal and their secret discourses? Aye! and Our apostles with them write down.

80 Am yahsaboona anna la nasmaAAu sirrahum wanajwahum bala warusuluna ladayhim yaktuboona

81 Say, [O Muhammad], "If the Most Merciful had a son, then I would be the first of [his] worshippers."

81 Say: If the Beneficent Allah has a son, I am the foremost of those who serve.

81 Qul in kana lilrrahmani waladun faana awwalu alAAabideena

82 Exalted is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, Lord of the Throne, above what they describe.

82 Glory to the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the Lord of power, from what they describe.

82 Subhana rabbi alssamawati waalardi rabbi alAAarshi AAamma yasifoona

83 So leave them to converse vainly and amuse themselves until they meet their Day which they are promised.

83 So leave them plunging into false discourses and sporting until they meet their day which they are threatened with.

83 Fatharhum yakhoodoo wayalAAaboo hatta yulaqoo yawmahumu allathee yooAAadoona

84 And it is Allah who is [the only] deity in the heaven, and on the earth [the only] deity. And He is the Wise, the Knowing.

84 And He it is Who is Allah in the heavens and Allah in the earth; and He is the Wise, the Knowing.

84 Wahuwa allathee fee alssamai ilahun wafee alardi ilahun wahuwa alhakeemu alAAaleemu

85 And blessed is He to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them and with whom is knowledge of the Hour and to whom you will be returned.

85 And blessed is He Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, and with Him is the knowledge of the hour, and to Him shall you be brought back.

85 Watabaraka allathee lahu mulku alssamawati waalardi wama baynahuma waAAindahu AAilmu alssaAAati wailayhi turjaAAoona

86 And those they invoke besides Him do not possess [power of] intercession; but only those who testify to the truth [can benefit], and they know.

86 And those whom they call upon besides Him have no authority for intercession, but he who bears witness of the truth and they know (him).

86 Wala yamliku allatheena yadAAoona min doonihi alshshafaAAata illa man shahida bialhaqqi wahum yaAAlamoona

87 And if you asked them who created them, they would surely say, "Allah." So how are they deluded?

87 And if you should ask them who created them, they would certainly say: Allah. Whence are they then turned back?

87 Walain saaltahum man khalaqahum layaqoolunna Allahu faanna yufakoona

88 And [Allah acknowledges] his saying, "O my Lord, indeed these are a people who do not believe."

88 Consider his cry: O my Lord! surely they are a people who do not believe.

88 Waqeelihi yarabbi inna haolai qawmun la yuminoona

89 So turn aside from them and say, "Peace." But they are going to know.

89 So turn away from them and say, Peace, for they shall soon come to know.

89 Faisfah AAanhum waqul salamun fasawfa yaAAlamoona
