By the clear Book,
وَالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ
Waalkitabi almubeeni
Indeed, We sent it down during a blessed night. Indeed, We were to warn [mankind].

Rabbi alssamawati waalardi wama baynahuma in kuntum mooqineena
There is no deity except Him; He gives life and causes death. [He is] your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers.

رَّبَّنَا اكْشِفْ عَنَّا الْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ
Rabbana ikshif AAanna alAAathaba inna muminoona
How will there be for them a reminder [at that time]? And there had come to them a clear Messenger.
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ الذِّكْرَىٰ وَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مُّبِينٌ
Anna lahumu alththikra waqad jaahum rasoolun mubeenun

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا مُعَلَّمٌ مَّجْنُونٌ
Thumma tawallaw AAanhu waqaloo muAAallamun majnoonun
Indeed, We will remove the torment for a little. Indeed, you [disbelievers] will return [to disbelief].

An addoo ilayya AAibada Allahi innee lakum rasoolun ameenun
And [saying], "Be not haughty with Allah. Indeed, I have come to you with clear authority.

FadaAAa rabbahu anna haolai qawmun mujrimoona

And crops and noble sites
وَزُرُوعٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ
WazurooAAin wamaqamin kareemin
And comfort wherein they were amused.
وَنَعْمَةٍ كَانُوا فِيهَا فَاكِهِينَ

كَذَٰلِكَ ۖ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا قَوْمًا آخَرِينَ
Kathalika waawrathnaha qawman akhareena
And the heaven and earth wept not for them, nor were they reprieved.

مِن فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَالِيًا مِّنَ الْمُسْرِفِينَ
Min firAAawna innahu kana AAaliyan mina almusrifeena

وَآتَيْنَاهُم مِّنَ الْآيَاتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَاءٌ مُّبِينٌ
Waataynahum mina alayati ma feehi balaon mubeenun
Indeed, these [disbelievers] are saying,
إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ لَيَقُولُونَ
Inna haolai layaqooloona
"There is not but our first death, and we will not be resurrected.
إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا الْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنشَرِينَ
In hiya illa mawtatuna aloola wama nahnu bimunshareena
Then bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful."
فَأْتُوا بِآبَائِنَا إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
Fatoo biabaina in kuntum sadiqeena
Are they better or the people of Tubba' and those before them? We destroyed them, [for] indeed, they were criminals.
أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَالَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ أَهْلَكْنَاهُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مُجْرِمِينَ

Wama khalaqna alssamawati waalarda wama baynahuma laAAibeena
We did not create them except in truth, but most of them do not know.

Ma khalaqnahuma illa bialhaqqi walakinna aktharahum la yaAAlamoona

إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ مِيقَاتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
Inna yawma alfasli meeqatuhum ajmaAAeena
The Day when no relation will avail a relation at all, nor will they be helped -

خُذُوهُ فَاعْتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَاءِ الْجَحِيمِ
Khuthoohu faiAAtiloohu ila sawai aljaheemi
