Chapter 23, 118 verses
The believers must (eventually) win through, -
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم قد أفلح المؤمنون
Qad aflaha almuminoona
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ
Those who humble themselves in their prayers;
الذين هم في صلاتهم خاشعون
Allatheena hum fee salatihim khashiAAoona
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى صَلَاتِهِمْ خَٰشِعُونَ
Who avoid vain talk;
والذين هم عن اللغو معرضون
Waallatheena hum AAani allaghwi muAAridoona
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَنِ ٱللَّغْوِ مُعْرِضُونَ
Who are active in deeds of charity;
والذين هم للزكاة فاعلون
Waallatheena hum lilzzakati faAAiloona
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلزَّكَوٰةِ فَٰعِلُونَ
Who abstain from sex,
والذين هم لفروجهم حافظون
Waallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoona
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَٰفِظُونَ
Except with those joined to them in the marriage bond, or (the captives) whom their right hands possess, - for (in their case) they are free from blame,
إلا على أزواجهم أو ما ملكت أيمانهم فإنهم غير ملومين
Illa AAala azwajihim aw ma malakat aymanuhum fainnahum ghayru maloomeena
إِلَّا عَلَىٰٓ أَزْوَٰجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَٰنُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُومِينَ
But those whose desires exceed those limits are transgressors; -
فمن ابتغى وراء ذلك فأولئك هم العادون
Famani ibtagha waraa thalika faolaika humu alAAadoona
فَمَنِ ٱبْتَغَىٰ وَرَآءَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْعَادُونَ
Those who faithfully observe their trusts and their covenants;
والذين هم لأماناتهم وعهدهم راعون
Waallatheena hum liamanatihim waAAahdihim raAAoona
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَٰنَٰتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَٰعُونَ
And who (strictly) guard their prayers; -
والذين هم على صلواتهم يحافظون
Waallatheena hum AAala salawatihim yuhafithoona
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَىٰ صَلَوَٰتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ
These will be the heirs,
أولئك هم الوارثون
Olaika humu alwarithoona
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْوَٰرِثُونَ
Who will inherit Paradise: they will dwell therein (for ever).
الذين يرثون الفردوس هم فيها خالدون
Allatheena yarithoona alfirdawsa hum feeha khalidoona
ٱلَّذِينَ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْفِرْدَوْسَ هُمْ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ
Man We did create from a quintessence (of clay);
ولقد خلقنا الإنسان من سلالة من طين
Walaqad khalaqna alinsana min sulalatin min teenin
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ مِن سُلَٰلَةٍ مِّن طِينٍ
Then We placed him as (a drop of) sperm in a place of rest, firmly fixed;
ثم جعلناه نطفة في قرار مكين
Thumma jaAAalnahu nutfatan fee qararin makeenin
ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَٰهُ نُطْفَةً فِى قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ
Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be Allah, the best to create!
ثم خلقنا النطفة علقة فخلقنا العلقة مضغة فخلقنا المضغة عظاما فكسونا العظام لحما ثم أنشأناه خلقا آخر ۚ فتبارك الله أحسن الخالقين
Thumma khalaqna alnnutfata AAalaqatan fakhalaqna alAAalaqata mudghatan fakhalaqna almudghata AAithaman fakasawna alAAithama lahman thumma anshanahu khalqan akhara fatabaraka Allahu ahsanu alkhaliqeena
ثُمَّ خَلَقْنَا ٱلنُّطْفَةَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقْنَا ٱلْعَلَقَةَ مُضْغَةً فَخَلَقْنَا ٱلْمُضْغَةَ عِظَٰمًا فَكَسَوْنَا ٱلْعِظَٰمَ لَحْمًا ثُمَّ أَنشَأْنَٰهُ خَلْقًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَبَارَكَ ٱللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ ٱلْخَٰلِقِينَ
After that, at length ye will die
ثم إنكم بعد ذلك لميتون
Thumma innakum baAAda thalika lamayyitoona
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُم بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ لَمَيِّتُونَ
Again, on the Day of Judgment, will ye be raised up.
ثم إنكم يوم القيامة تبعثون
Thumma innakum yawma alqiyamati tubAAathoona
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ تُبْعَثُونَ
And We have made, above you, seven tracts; and We are never unmindful of (our) Creation.
ولقد خلقنا فوقكم سبع طرائق وما كنا عن الخلق غافلين
Walaqad khalaqna fawqakum sabAAa taraiqa wama kunna AAani alkhalqi ghafileena
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعَ طَرَآئِقَ وَمَا كُنَّا عَنِ ٱلْخَلْقِ غَٰفِلِينَ
And We send down water from the sky according to (due) measure, and We cause it to soak in the soil; and We certainly are able to drain it off (with ease).
وأنزلنا من السماء ماء بقدر فأسكناه في الأرض ۖ وإنا على ذهاب به لقادرون
Waanzalna mina alssamai maan biqadarin faaskannahu fee alardi wainna AAala thahabin bihi laqadiroona
وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۢ بِقَدَرٍ فَأَسْكَنَّٰهُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰ ذَهَابٍۭ بِهِۦ لَقَٰدِرُونَ
With it We grow for you gardens of date - palms and vines: in them have ye abundant fruits: and of them ye eat (and have enjoyment), -
فأنشأنا لكم به جنات من نخيل وأعناب لكم فيها فواكه كثيرة ومنها تأكلون
Faanshana lakum bihi jannatin min nakheelin waaAAnabin lakum feeha fawakihu katheeratun waminha takuloona
فَأَنشَأْنَا لَكُم بِهِۦ جَنَّٰتٍ مِّن نَّخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَٰبٍ لَّكُمْ فِيهَا فَوَٰكِهُ كَثِيرَةٌ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَ
Also a tree springing out of Mount Sinai, which produces oil, and relish for those who use it for food.
وشجرة تخرج من طور سيناء تنبت بالدهن وصبغ للآكلين
Washajaratan takhruju min toori saynaa tanbutu bialdduhni wasibghin lilakileena
وَشَجَرَةً تَخْرُجُ مِن طُورِ سَيْنَآءَ تَنۢبُتُ بِٱلدُّهْنِ وَصِبْغٍ لِّلْءَاكِلِينَ
And in cattle (too) ye have an instructive example: from within their bodies We produce (milk) for you to drink; there are, in them, (besides), numerous (other) benefits for you; and of their (meat) ye eat;
وإن لكم في الأنعام لعبرة ۖ نسقيكم مما في بطونها ولكم فيها منافع كثيرة ومنها تأكلون
Wainna lakum fee alanAAami laAAibratan nusqeekum mimma fee butooniha walakum feeha manafiAAu katheeratun waminha takuloona
وَإِنَّ لَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ لَعِبْرَةً نُّسْقِيكُم مِّمَّا فِى بُطُونِهَا وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ كَثِيرَةٌ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَ
And on them, as well as in ships, ye ride.
وعليها وعلى الفلك تحملون
WaAAalayha waAAala alfulki tuhmaloona
وَعَلَيْهَا وَعَلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ تُحْمَلُونَ
(Further, We sent a long line of prophets for your instruction). We sent Noah to his people: He said, "O my people! worship Allah! Ye have no other god but Him. Will ye not fear (Him)?"
ولقد أرسلنا نوحا إلى قومه فقال يا قوم اعبدوا الله ما لكم من إله غيره ۖ أفلا تتقون
Walaqad arsalna noohan ila qawmihi faqala ya qawmi oAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoona
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِۦ فَقَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥٓ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
The chiefs of the Unbelievers among his people said: "He is no more than a man like yourselves: his wish is to assert his superiority over you: if Allah had wished (to send messengers), He could have sent down angels; never did we hear such a thing (as he says), among our ancestors of old."
فقال الملأ الذين كفروا من قومه ما هذا إلا بشر مثلكم يريد أن يتفضل عليكم ولو شاء الله لأنزل ملائكة ما سمعنا بهذا في آبائنا الأولين
Faqala almalao allatheena kafaroo min qawmihi ma hatha illa basharun mithlukum yureedu an yatafaddala AAalaykum walaw shaa Allahu laanzala malaikatan ma samiAAna bihatha fee abaina alawwaleena
فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلَؤُا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن قَوْمِهِۦ مَا هَٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يُرِيدُ أَن يَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَوْ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَأَنزَلَ مَلَٰٓئِكَةً مَّا سَمِعْنَا بِهَٰذَا فِىٓ ءَابَا
(And some said): "He is only a man possessed: wait (and have patience) with him for a time."
إن هو إلا رجل به جنة فتربصوا به حتى حين
In huwa illa rajulun bihi jinnatun fatarabbasoo bihi hatta heenin
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا رَجُلٌۢ بِهِۦ جِنَّةٌ فَتَرَبَّصُوا۟ بِهِۦ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
(Noah) said: "O my Lord! help me: for that they accuse me of falsehood!"
قال رب انصرني بما كذبون
Qala rabbi onsurnee bima kaththabooni
قَالَ رَبِّ ٱنصُرْنِى بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ
So We inspired him (with this message): "Construct the Ark within Our sight and under Our guidance: then when comes Our Command, and the fountains of the earth gush forth, take thou on board pairs of every species, male and female, and thy family - except those of them against whom the Word has already gone forth: And address Me not in favour of the wrong - doers; for they shall be drowned (in the Flood).
فأوحينا إليه أن اصنع الفلك بأعيننا ووحينا فإذا جاء أمرنا وفار التنور ۙ فاسلك فيها من كل زوجين اثنين وأهلك إلا من سبق عليه القول منهم ۖ ولا تخاطبني في الذين ظلموا ۖ إنهم مغرقون
Faawhayna ilayhi ani isnaAAi alfulka biaAAyunina wawahyina faitha jaa amruna wafara alttannooru faosluk feeha min kullin zawjayni ithnayni waahlaka illa man sabaqa AAalayhi alqawlu minhum wala tukhatibnee fee allatheena thalamoo innahum mughraqoona
فَأَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَيْهِ أَنِ ٱصْنَعِ ٱلْفُلْكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ ٱلتَّنُّورُ فَٱسْلُكْ فِيهَا مِن كُلٍّ زَوْجَيْنِ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَأَهْلَكَ إِلَّا مَن سَبَقَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْقَ
And when thou hast embarked on the Ark - thou and those with thee, - say: "Praise be to Allah, Who has saved us from the people who do wrong."
فإذا استويت أنت ومن معك على الفلك فقل الحمد لله الذي نجانا من القوم الظالمين
Faitha istawayta anta waman maAAaka AAala alfulki faquli alhamdu lillahi allathee najjana mina alqawmi alththalimeena
فَإِذَا ٱسْتَوَيْتَ أَنتَ وَمَن مَّعَكَ عَلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ فَقُلِ ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِى نَجَّىٰنَا مِنَ ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
And say: "O my Lord! enable me to disembark with thy blessing: for Thou art the Best to enable (us) to disembark."
وقل رب أنزلني منزلا مباركا وأنت خير المنزلين
Waqul rabbi anzilnee munzalan mubarakan waanta khayru almunzileena
وَقُل رَّبِّ أَنزِلْنِى مُنزَلًا مُّبَارَكًا وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلْمُنزِلِينَ
Verily in this there are Signs (for men to understand); (thus) do We try (men).
إن في ذلك لآيات وإن كنا لمبتلين
Inna fee thalika laayatin wain kunna lamubtaleena
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍ وَإِن كُنَّا لَمُبْتَلِينَ
Then We raised after them another generation.
ثم أنشأنا من بعدهم قرنا آخرين
Thumma anshana min baAAdihim qarnan akhareena
ثُمَّ أَنشَأْنَا مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْنًا ءَاخَرِينَ
And We sent to them a messenger from among themselves, (saying), "Worship Allah! ye have no other god but Him. Will ye not fear (Him)?"
فأرسلنا فيهم رسولا منهم أن اعبدوا الله ما لكم من إله غيره ۖ أفلا تتقون
Faarsalna feehim rasoolan minhum ani oAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoona
فَأَرْسَلْنَا فِيهِمْ رَسُولًا مِّنْهُمْ أَنِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥٓ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
And the chiefs of his people, who disbelieved and denied the Meeting in the Hereafter, and on whom We had bestowed the good things of this life, said: "He is no more than a man like yourselves: he eats of that of which ye eat, and drinks of what ye drink.
وقال الملأ من قومه الذين كفروا وكذبوا بلقاء الآخرة وأترفناهم في الحياة الدنيا ما هذا إلا بشر مثلكم يأكل مما تأكلون منه ويشرب مما تشربون
Waqala almalao min qawmihi allatheena kafaroo wakaththaboo biliqai alakhirati waatrafnahum fee alhayati alddunya ma hatha illa basharun mithlukum yakulu mimma takuloona minhu wayashrabu mimma tashraboona
وَقَالَ ٱلْمَلَأُ مِن قَوْمِهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِلِقَآءِ ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَأَتْرَفْنَٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا مَا هَٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يَأْكُلُ مِمَّا تَأْكُلُونَ مِنْهُ وَيَش
"If ye obey a man like yourselves, behold, it is certain ye will be lost.
ولئن أطعتم بشرا مثلكم إنكم إذا لخاسرون
Walain ataAAtum basharan mithlakum innakum ithan lakhasiroona
وَلَئِنْ أَطَعْتُم بَشَرًا مِّثْلَكُمْ إِنَّكُمْ إِذًا لَّخَٰسِرُونَ
"Does he promise that when ye die and become dust and bones, ye shall be brought forth (again)?
أيعدكم أنكم إذا متم وكنتم ترابا وعظاما أنكم مخرجون
AyaAAidukum annakum itha mittum wakuntum turaban waAAithaman annakum mukhrajoona
أَيَعِدُكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ إِذَا مِتُّمْ وَكُنتُمْ تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَنَّكُم مُّخْرَجُونَ
"Far, very far is that which ye are promised!
۞ هيهات هيهات لما توعدون
Hayhata hayhata lima tooAAadoona
هَيْهَاتَ هَيْهَاتَ لِمَا تُوعَدُونَ
"There is nothing but our life in this world! We shall die and we live! But we shall never be raised up again!
إن هي إلا حياتنا الدنيا نموت ونحيا وما نحن بمبعوثين
In hiya illa hayatuna alddunya namootu wanahya wama nahnu bimabAAootheena
إِنْ هِىَ إِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا ٱلدُّنْيَا نَمُوتُ وَنَحْيَا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَبْعُوثِينَ
"He is only a man who invents a lie against Allah, but we are not the ones to believe in him!"
إن هو إلا رجل افترى على الله كذبا وما نحن له بمؤمنين
In huwa illa rajulun iftara AAala Allahi kathiban wama nahnu lahu bimumineena
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ ٱفْتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًا وَمَا نَحْنُ لَهُۥ بِمُؤْمِنِينَ
(The prophet) said: "O my Lord! help me: for that they accuse me of falsehood."
قال رب انصرني بما كذبون
Qala rabbi onsurnee bima kaththabooni
قَالَ رَبِّ ٱنصُرْنِى بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ
(Allah) said: "In but a little while, they are sure to be sorry!"
قال عما قليل ليصبحن نادمين
Qala AAamma qaleelin layusbihunna nadimeena
قَالَ عَمَّا قَلِيلٍ لَّيُصْبِحُنَّ نَٰدِمِينَ
Then the Blast overtook them with justice, and We made them as rubbish of dead leaves (floating on the stream of Time)! So away with the people who do wrong!
فأخذتهم الصيحة بالحق فجعلناهم غثاء ۚ فبعدا للقوم الظالمين
Faakhathathumu alssayhatu bialhaqqi fajaAAalnahum ghuthaan fabuAAdan lilqawmi alththalimeena
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّيْحَةُ بِٱلْحَقِّ فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ غُثَآءً فَبُعْدًا لِّلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
Then We raised after them other generations.
ثم أنشأنا من بعدهم قرونا آخرين
Thumma anshana min baAAdihim quroonan akhareena
ثُمَّ أَنشَأْنَا مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قُرُونًا ءَاخَرِينَ
No people can hasten their term, nor can they delay (it).
ما تسبق من أمة أجلها وما يستأخرون
Ma tasbiqu min ommatin ajalaha wama yastakhiroona
مَا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ
Then sent We our messengers in succession: every time there came to a people their messenger, they accused him of falsehood: so We made them follow each other (in punishment): We made them as a tale (that is told): So away with a people that will not believe!
ثم أرسلنا رسلنا تترى ۖ كل ما جاء أمة رسولها كذبوه ۚ فأتبعنا بعضهم بعضا وجعلناهم أحاديث ۚ فبعدا لقوم لا يؤمنون
Thumma arsalna rusulana tatra kulla ma jaa ommatan rasooluha kaththaboohu faatbaAAna baAAdahum baAAdan wajaAAalnahum ahadeetha fabuAAdan liqawmin la yuminoona
ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا تَتْرَا كُلَّ مَا جَآءَ أُمَّةً رَّسُولُهَا كَذَّبُوهُ فَأَتْبَعْنَا بَعْضَهُم بَعْضًا وَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ أَحَادِيثَ فَبُعْدًا لِّقَوْمٍ لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ
Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron, with Our Signs and authority manifest,
ثم أرسلنا موسى وأخاه هارون بآياتنا وسلطان مبين
Thumma arsalna moosa waakhahu haroona biayatina wasultanin mubeenin
ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْنَا مُوسَىٰ وَأَخَاهُ هَٰرُونَ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا وَسُلْطَٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ
To Pharaoh and his Chiefs: But these behaved insolently: they were an arrogant people.
إلى فرعون وملئه فاستكبروا وكانوا قوما عالين
Ila firAAawna wamalaihi faistakbaroo wakanoo qawman AAaleena
إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَإِي۟هِۦ فَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ وَكَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا عَالِينَ
They said: "Shall we believe in two men like ourselves? And their people are subject to us!"
فقالوا أنؤمن لبشرين مثلنا وقومهما لنا عابدون
Faqaloo anuminu libasharayni mithlina waqawmuhuma lana AAabidoona
فَقَالُوٓا۟ أَنُؤْمِنُ لِبَشَرَيْنِ مِثْلِنَا وَقَوْمُهُمَا لَنَا عَٰبِدُونَ
So they accused them of falsehood, and they became of those who were destroyed.
فكذبوهما فكانوا من المهلكين
Fakaththaboohuma fakanoo mina almuhlakeena
فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَكَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْمُهْلَكِينَ
And We gave Moses the Book, in order that they might receive guidance.
ولقد آتينا موسى الكتاب لعلهم يهتدون
Walaqad atayna moosa alkitaba laAAallahum yahtadoona
وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا مُوسَى ٱلْكِتَٰبَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ
And We made the son of Mary and his mother as a Sign: We gave them both shelter on high ground, affording rest and security and furnished with springs.
وجعلنا ابن مريم وأمه آية وآويناهما إلى ربوة ذات قرار ومعين
WajaAAalna ibna maryama waommahu ayatan waawaynahuma ila rabwatin thati qararin wamaAAeenin
وَجَعَلْنَا ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَأُمَّهُۥٓ ءَايَةً وَءَاوَيْنَٰهُمَآ إِلَىٰ رَبْوَةٍ ذَاتِ قَرَارٍ وَمَعِينٍ
O ye messengers! enjoy (all) things good and pure, and work righteousness: for I am well - acquainted with (all) that ye do.
يا أيها الرسل كلوا من الطيبات واعملوا صالحا ۖ إني بما تعملون عليم
Ya ayyuha alrrusulu kuloo mina alttayyibati waiAAmaloo salihan innee bima taAAmaloona AAaleemun
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلرُّسُلُ كُلُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلطَّيِّبَٰتِ وَٱعْمَلُوا۟ صَٰلِحًا إِنِّى بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ عَلِيمٌ
And verily this Brotherhood of yours is a single Brotherhood, and I am your Lord and Cherisher: therefore fear Me (and no other).
وإن هذه أمتكم أمة واحدة وأنا ربكم فاتقون
Wainna hathihi ommatukum ommatan wahidatan waana rabbukum faittaqooni
وَإِنَّ هَٰذِهِۦٓ أُمَّتُكُمْ أُمَّةً وَٰحِدَةً وَأَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمْ فَٱتَّقُونِ
But people have cut off their affair (of unity), between them, into sects: each party rejoices in that which is with itself.
فتقطعوا أمرهم بينهم زبرا ۖ كل حزب بما لديهم فرحون
FataqattaAAoo amrahum baynahum zuburan kullu hizbin bima ladayhim farihoona
فَتَقَطَّعُوٓا۟ أَمْرَهُم بَيْنَهُمْ زُبُرًا كُلُّ حِزْبٍۭ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ فَرِحُونَ
But leave them in their confused ignorance for a time.
فذرهم في غمرتهم حتى حين
Fatharhum fee ghamratihim hatta heenin
فَذَرْهُمْ فِى غَمْرَتِهِمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
Do they think that because We have granted them abundance of wealth and sons,
أيحسبون أنما نمدهم به من مال وبنين
Ayahsaboona annama numidduhum bihi min malin wabaneena
أَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّمَا نُمِدُّهُم بِهِۦ مِن مَّالٍ وَبَنِينَ
We would hasten them on in every good? Nay, they do not understand.
نسارع لهم في الخيرات ۚ بل لا يشعرون
NusariAAu lahum fee alkhayrati bal la yashAAuroona
نُسَارِعُ لَهُمْ فِى ٱلْخَيْرَٰتِ بَل لَّا يَشْعُرُونَ
Verily those who live in awe for fear of their Lord;
إن الذين هم من خشية ربهم مشفقون
Inna allatheena hum min khashyati rabbihim mushfiqoona
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ هُم مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ رَبِّهِم مُّشْفِقُونَ
Those who believe in the Signs of their Lord;
والذين هم بآيات ربهم يؤمنون
Waallatheena hum biayati rabbihim yuminoona
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ
Those who join not (in worship) partners with their Lord;
والذين هم بربهم لا يشركون
Waallatheena hum birabbihim la yushrikoona
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم بِرَبِّهِمْ لَا يُشْرِكُونَ
And those who dispense their charity with their hearts full of fear, because they will return to their Lord; -
والذين يؤتون ما آتوا وقلوبهم وجلة أنهم إلى ربهم راجعون
Waallatheena yutoona ma ataw waquloobuhum wajilatun annahum ila rabbihim rajiAAoona
وَٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْتُونَ مَآ ءَاتَوا۟ وَّقُلُوبُهُمْ وَجِلَةٌ أَنَّهُمْ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ رَٰجِعُونَ
It is these who hasten in every good work, and these who are foremost in them.
أولئك يسارعون في الخيرات وهم لها سابقون
Olaika yusariAAoona fee alkhayrati wahum laha sabiqoona
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ يُسَٰرِعُونَ فِى ٱلْخَيْرَٰتِ وَهُمْ لَهَا سَٰبِقُونَ
On no soul do We place a burden greater than it can bear: before Us is a record which clearly shows the truth: they will never be wronged.
ولا نكلف نفسا إلا وسعها ۖ ولدينا كتاب ينطق بالحق ۚ وهم لا يظلمون
Wala nukallifu nafsan illa wusAAaha waladayna kitabun yantiqu bialhaqqi wahum la yuthlamoona
وَلَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا وَلَدَيْنَا كِتَٰبٌ يَنطِقُ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ
But their hearts are in confused ignorance of this; and there are, besides that, deeds of theirs, which they will (continue) to do, -
بل قلوبهم في غمرة من هذا ولهم أعمال من دون ذلك هم لها عاملون
Bal quloobuhum fee ghamratin min hatha walahum aAAmalun min dooni thalika hum laha AAamiloona
بَلْ قُلُوبُهُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍ مِّنْ هَٰذَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْمَٰلٌ مِّن دُونِ ذَٰلِكَ هُمْ لَهَا عَٰمِلُونَ
Until, when We seize in Punishment those of them who received the good things of this world, behold, they will groan in supplication!
حتى إذا أخذنا مترفيهم بالعذاب إذا هم يجأرون
Hatta itha akhathna mutrafeehim bialAAathabi itha hum yajaroona
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَخَذْنَا مُتْرَفِيهِم بِٱلْعَذَابِ إِذَا هُمْ يَجْـَٔرُونَ
(It will be said): "Groan not in supplication this day: for ye shall certainly not be helped by Us.
لا تجأروا اليوم ۖ إنكم منا لا تنصرون
La tajaroo alyawma innakum minna la tunsaroona
لَا تَجْـَٔرُوا۟ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِنَّكُم مِّنَّا لَا تُنصَرُونَ
"My Signs used to be rehearsed to you, but ye used to turn back on your heels -
قد كانت آياتي تتلى عليكم فكنتم على أعقابكم تنكصون
Qad kanat ayatee tutla AAalaykum fakuntum AAala aAAqabikum tankisoona
قَدْ كَانَتْ ءَايَٰتِى تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ فَكُنتُمْ عَلَىٰٓ أَعْقَٰبِكُمْ تَنكِصُونَ
"In arrogance: talking nonsense about the (Qur'an), like one telling fables by night."
مستكبرين به سامرا تهجرون
Mustakbireena bihi samiran tahjuroona
مُسْتَكْبِرِينَ بِهِۦ سَٰمِرًا تَهْجُرُونَ
Do they not ponder over the Word (of Allah), or has anything (new) come to them that did not come to their fathers of old?
أفلم يدبروا القول أم جاءهم ما لم يأت آباءهم الأولين
Afalam yaddabbaroo alqawla am jaahum ma lam yati abaahumu alawwaleena
أَفَلَمْ يَدَّبَّرُوا۟ ٱلْقَوْلَ أَمْ جَآءَهُم مَّا لَمْ يَأْتِ ءَابَآءَهُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Or do they not recognise their Messenger, that they deny him?
أم لم يعرفوا رسولهم فهم له منكرون
Am lam yaAArifoo rasoolahum fahum lahu munkiroona
أَمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا۟ رَسُولَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَهُۥ مُنكِرُونَ
Or do they say, "He is possessed"? Nay, he has brought them the Truth, but most of them hate the Truth.
أم يقولون به جنة ۚ بل جاءهم بالحق وأكثرهم للحق كارهون
Am yaqooloona bihi jinnatun bal jaahum bialhaqqi waaktharuhum lilhaqqi karihoona
أَمْ يَقُولُونَ بِهِۦ جِنَّةٌۢ بَلْ جَآءَهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلْحَقِّ كَٰرِهُونَ
If the Truth had been in accord with their desires, truly the heavens and the earth, and all beings therein would have been in confusion and corruption! Nay, We have sent them their admonition, but they turn away from their admonition.
ولو اتبع الحق أهواءهم لفسدت السماوات والأرض ومن فيهن ۚ بل أتيناهم بذكرهم فهم عن ذكرهم معرضون
Walawi ittabaAAa alhaqqu ahwaahum lafasadati alssamawatu waalardu waman feehinna bal ataynahum bithikrihim fahum AAan thikrihim muAAridoona
وَلَوِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلْحَقُّ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ لَفَسَدَتِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَن فِيهِنَّ بَلْ أَتَيْنَٰهُم بِذِكْرِهِمْ فَهُمْ عَن ذِكْرِهِم مُّعْرِضُونَ
Or is it that thou askest them for some recompense? But the recompense of thy Lord is best: He is the Best of those who give sustenance.
أم تسألهم خرجا فخراج ربك خير ۖ وهو خير الرازقين
Am tasaluhum kharjan fakharaju rabbika khayrun wahuwa khayru alrraziqeena
أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ خَرْجًا فَخَرَاجُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ
But verily thou callest them to the Straight Way;
وإنك لتدعوهم إلى صراط مستقيم
Wainnaka latadAAoohum ila siratin mustaqeemin
وَإِنَّكَ لَتَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ
And verily those who believe not in the Hereafter are deviating from that Way.
وإن الذين لا يؤمنون بالآخرة عن الصراط لناكبون
Wainna allatheena la yuminoona bialakhirati AAani alssirati lanakiboona
وَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْءَاخِرَةِ عَنِ ٱلصِّرَٰطِ لَنَٰكِبُونَ
If We had mercy on them and removed the distress which is on them, they would obstinately persist in their transgression, wandering in distraction to and fro.
۞ ولو رحمناهم وكشفنا ما بهم من ضر للجوا في طغيانهم يعمهون
Walaw rahimnahum wakashafna ma bihim min durrin lalajjoo fee tughyanihim yaAAmahoona
وَلَوْ رَحِمْنَٰهُمْ وَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِم مِّن ضُرٍّ لَّلَجُّوا۟ فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ
We inflicted Punishment on them, but they humbled not themselves to their Lord, nor do they submissively entreat (Him)! -
ولقد أخذناهم بالعذاب فما استكانوا لربهم وما يتضرعون
Walaqad akhathnahum bialAAathabi fama istakanoo lirabbihim wama yatadarraAAoona
وَلَقَدْ أَخَذْنَٰهُم بِٱلْعَذَابِ فَمَا ٱسْتَكَانُوا۟ لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ
Until We open on them a gate leading to a severe Punishment: then Lo! they will be plunged in despair therein!
حتى إذا فتحنا عليهم بابا ذا عذاب شديد إذا هم فيه مبلسون
Hatta itha fatahna AAalayhim baban tha AAathabin shadeedin itha hum feehi mublisoona
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا ذَا عَذَابٍ شَدِيدٍ إِذَا هُمْ فِيهِ مُبْلِسُونَ
It is He Who has created for you (the faculties of) hearing, sight, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give!
وهو الذي أنشأ لكم السمع والأبصار والأفئدة ۚ قليلا ما تشكرون
Wahuwa allathee anshaa lakumu alssamAAa waalabsara waalafidata qaleelan ma tashkuroona
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنشَأَ لَكُمُ ٱلسَّمْعَ وَٱلْأَبْصَٰرَ وَٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةَ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ
And He has multiplied you through the earth, and to Him shall ye be gathered back.
وهو الذي ذرأكم في الأرض وإليه تحشرون
Wahuwa allathee tharaakum fee alardi wailayhi tuhsharoona
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى ذَرَأَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ
It is He Who gives life and death, and to Him (is due) the alternation of Night and Day: will ye not then understand?
وهو الذي يحيي ويميت وله اختلاف الليل والنهار ۚ أفلا تعقلون
Wahuwa allathee yuhyee wayumeetu walahu ikhtilafu allayli waalnnahari afala taAAqiloona
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ وَلَهُ ٱخْتِلَٰفُ ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
On the contrary they say things similar to what the ancients said.
بل قالوا مثل ما قال الأولون
Bal qaloo mithla ma qala alawwaloona
بَلْ قَالُوا۟ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ
They say: "What! when we die and become dust and bones, could we really be raised up again?
قالوا أإذا متنا وكنا ترابا وعظاما أإنا لمبعوثون
Qaloo aitha mitna wakunna turaban waAAithaman ainna lamabAAoothoona
قَالُوٓا۟ أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
"Such things have been promised to us and to our fathers before! they are nothing but tales of the ancients!"
لقد وعدنا نحن وآباؤنا هذا من قبل إن هذا إلا أساطير الأولين
Laqad wuAAidna nahnu waabaona hatha min qablu in hatha illa asateeru alawwaleena
لَقَدْ وُعِدْنَا نَحْنُ وَءَابَآؤُنَا هَٰذَا مِن قَبْلُ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Say: "To whom belong the earth and all beings therein? (say) if ye know!"
قل لمن الأرض ومن فيها إن كنتم تعلمون
Qul limani alardu waman feeha in kuntum taAAlamoona
قُل لِّمَنِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَن فِيهَآ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
They will say, "To Allah!" say: "Yet will ye not receive admonition?"
سيقولون لله ۚ قل أفلا تذكرون
Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afala tathakkaroona
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
Say: "Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Throne (of Glory) Supreme?"
قل من رب السماوات السبع ورب العرش العظيم
Qul man rabbu alssamawati alssabAAi warabbu alAAarshi alAAatheemi
قُلْ مَن رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ ٱلسَّبْعِ وَرَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
They will say, "(They belong) to Allah." Say: "Will ye not then be filled with awe?"
سيقولون لله ۚ قل أفلا تتقون
Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afala tattaqoona
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Say: "Who is it in whose hands is the governance of all things, - who protects (all), but is not protected (of any)? (say) if ye know."
قل من بيده ملكوت كل شيء وهو يجير ولا يجار عليه إن كنتم تعلمون
Qul man biyadihi malakootu kulli shayin wahuwa yujeeru wala yujaru AAalayhi in kuntum taAAlamoona
قُلْ مَنۢ بِيَدِهِۦ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ وَهُوَ يُجِيرُ وَلَا يُجَارُ عَلَيْهِ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
They will say, "(It belongs) to Allah." Say: "Then how are ye deluded?"
سيقولون لله ۚ قل فأنى تسحرون
Sayaqooloona lillahi qul faanna tusharoona
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ فَأَنَّىٰ تُسْحَرُونَ
We have sent them the Truth: but they indeed practise falsehood!
بل أتيناهم بالحق وإنهم لكاذبون
Bal ataynahum bialhaqqi wainnahum lakathiboona
بَلْ أَتَيْنَٰهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ
No son did Allah beget, nor is there any god along with Him: (if there were many gods), behold, each god would have taken away what he had created, and some would have lorded it over others! Glory to Allah! (He is free) from the (sort of) things they attribute to Him!
ما اتخذ الله من ولد وما كان معه من إله ۚ إذا لذهب كل إله بما خلق ولعلا بعضهم على بعض ۚ سبحان الله عما يصفون
Ma ittakhatha Allahu min waladin wama kana maAAahu min ilahin ithan lathahaba kullu ilahin bima khalaqa walaAAala baAAduhum AAala baAAdin subhana Allahi AAamma yasifoona
مَا ٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ مِن وَلَدٍ وَمَا كَانَ مَعَهُۥ مِنْ إِلَٰهٍ إِذًا لَّذَهَبَ كُلُّ إِلَٰهٍۭ بِمَا خَلَقَ وَلَعَلَا بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
He knows what is hidden and what is open: too high is He for the partners they attribute to Him!
عالم الغيب والشهادة فتعالى عما يشركون
AAalimi alghaybi waalshshahadati fataAAala AAamma yushrikoona
عَٰلِمِ ٱلْغَيْبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ فَتَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
Say: "O my Lord! if Thou wilt show me (in my lifetime) that which they are warned against, -
قل رب إما تريني ما يوعدون
Qul rabbi imma turiyannee ma yooAAadoona
قُل رَّبِّ إِمَّا تُرِيَنِّى مَا يُوعَدُونَ
"Then, O my Lord! put me not amongst the people who do wrong!"
رب فلا تجعلني في القوم الظالمين
Rabbi fala tajAAalnee fee alqawmi alththalimeena
رَبِّ فَلَا تَجْعَلْنِى فِى ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
And We are certainly able to show thee (in fulfilment) that against which they are warned.
وإنا على أن نريك ما نعدهم لقادرون
Wainna AAala an nuriyaka ma naAAiduhum laqadiroona
وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّرِيَكَ مَا نَعِدُهُمْ لَقَٰدِرُونَ
Repel evil with that which is best: We are well acquainted with the things they say.
ادفع بالتي هي أحسن السيئة ۚ نحن أعلم بما يصفون
IdfaAA biallatee hiya ahsanu alssayyiata nahnu aAAlamu bima yasifoona
ٱدْفَعْ بِٱلَّتِى هِىَ أَحْسَنُ ٱلسَّيِّئَةَ نَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَصِفُونَ
And say "O my Lord! I seek refuge with Thee from the suggestions of the Evil Ones.
وقل رب أعوذ بك من همزات الشياطين
Waqul rabbi aAAoothu bika min hamazati alshshayateeni
وَقُل رَّبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَٰتِ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِ
"And I seek refuge with Thee O my Lord! lest they should come near me."
وأعوذ بك رب أن يحضرون
WaaAAoothu bika rabbi an yahdurooni
وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَن يَحْضُرُونِ
(In Falsehood will they be) Until, when death comes to one of them, he says: "O my Lord! send me back (to life), -
حتى إذا جاء أحدهم الموت قال رب ارجعون
Hatta itha jaa ahadahumu almawtu qala rabbi irjiAAooni
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَ أَحَدَهُمُ ٱلْمَوْتُ قَالَ رَبِّ ٱرْجِعُونِ
"In order that I may work righteousness in the things I neglected." - "By no means! It is but a word he says." - Before them is a Partition till the Day they are raised up.
لعلي أعمل صالحا فيما تركت ۚ كلا ۚ إنها كلمة هو قائلها ۖ ومن ورائهم برزخ إلى يوم يبعثون
LaAAallee aAAmalu salihan feema taraktu kalla innaha kalimatun huwa qailuha wamin waraihim barzakhun ila yawmi yubAAathoona
لَعَلِّىٓ أَعْمَلُ صَٰلِحًا فِيمَا تَرَكْتُ كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَآئِلُهَا وَمِن وَرَآئِهِم بَرْزَخٌ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
Then when the Trumpet is blown, there will be no more relationships between them that Day, nor will one ask after another!
فإذا نفخ في الصور فلا أنساب بينهم يومئذ ولا يتساءلون
Faitha nufikha fee alssoori fala ansaba baynahum yawmaithin wala yatasaaloona
فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَلَآ أَنسَابَ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَلَا يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
Then those whose balance (of good deeds) is heavy, - they will attain salvation:
فمن ثقلت موازينه فأولئك هم المفلحون
Faman thaqulat mawazeenuhu faolaika humu almuflihoona
فَمَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ
But those whose balance is light, will be those who have lost their souls, in Hell will they abide.
ومن خفت موازينه فأولئك الذين خسروا أنفسهم في جهنم خالدون
Waman khaffat mawazeenuhu faolaika allatheena khasiroo anfusahum fee jahannama khalidoona
وَمَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فِى جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدُونَ
The Fire will burn their faces, and they will therein grin, with their lips displaced.
تلفح وجوههم النار وهم فيها كالحون
Talfahu wujoohahumu alnnaru wahum feeha kalihoona
تَلْفَحُ وُجُوهَهُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَهُمْ فِيهَا كَٰلِحُونَ
"Were not My Signs rehearsed to you, and ye did but treat them as falsehood?"
ألم تكن آياتي تتلى عليكم فكنتم بها تكذبون
Alam takun ayatee tutla AAalaykum fakuntum biha tukaththiboona
أَلَمْ تَكُنْ ءَايَٰتِى تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ فَكُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ
They will say: "our Lord! Our misfortune overwhelmed us, and we became a people astray!
قالوا ربنا غلبت علينا شقوتنا وكنا قوما ضالين
Qaloo rabbana ghalabat AAalayna shiqwatuna wakunna qawman dalleena
قَالُوا۟ رَبَّنَا غَلَبَتْ عَلَيْنَا شِقْوَتُنَا وَكُنَّا قَوْمًا ضَآلِّينَ
"Our Lord! bring us out of this: if ever we return (to Evil), then shall we be wrong - doers indeed!"
ربنا أخرجنا منها فإن عدنا فإنا ظالمون
Rabbana akhrijna minha fain AAudna fainna thalimoona
رَبَّنَآ أَخْرِجْنَا مِنْهَا فَإِنْ عُدْنَا فَإِنَّا ظَٰلِمُونَ
He will say: "Be ye driven into it (with ignominy)! And speak ye not to Me!
قال اخسئوا فيها ولا تكلمون
Qala ikhsaoo feeha wala tukallimooni
قَالَ ٱخْسَـُٔوا۟ فِيهَا وَلَا تُكَلِّمُونِ
"A part of My servants there was, who used to pray 'our Lord! we believe; then do Thou forgive us, and have mercy upon us: For Thou art the Best of those who show mercy!"
إنه كان فريق من عبادي يقولون ربنا آمنا فاغفر لنا وارحمنا وأنت خير الراحمين
Innahu kana fareequn min AAibadee yaqooloona rabbana amanna faighfir lana wairhamna waanta khayru alrrahimeena
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فَرِيقٌ مِّنْ عِبَادِى يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَآ ءَامَنَّا فَٱغْفِرْ لَنَا وَٱرْحَمْنَا وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰحِمِينَ
"But ye treated them with ridicule, so much so that (ridicule of) them made you forget My Message while ye were laughing at them!
فاتخذتموهم سخريا حتى أنسوكم ذكري وكنتم منهم تضحكون
Faittakhathtumoohum sikhriyyan hatta ansawkum thikree wakuntum minhum tadhakoona
فَٱتَّخَذْتُمُوهُمْ سِخْرِيًّا حَتَّىٰٓ أَنسَوْكُمْ ذِكْرِى وَكُنتُم مِّنْهُمْ تَضْحَكُونَ
"I have rewarded them this Day for their patience and constancy: they are indeed the ones that have achieved Bliss..."
إني جزيتهم اليوم بما صبروا أنهم هم الفائزون
Innee jazaytuhumu alyawma bima sabaroo annahum humu alfaizoona
إِنِّى جَزَيْتُهُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ بِمَا صَبَرُوٓا۟ أَنَّهُمْ هُمُ ٱلْفَآئِزُونَ
He will say: "What number of years did ye stay on earth?"
قال كم لبثتم في الأرض عدد سنين
Qala kam labithtum fee alardi AAadada sineena
قَٰلَ كَمْ لَبِثْتُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ عَدَدَ سِنِينَ
They will say: "We stayed a day or part of a day: but ask those who keep account."
قالوا لبثنا يوما أو بعض يوم فاسأل العادين
Qaloo labithna yawman aw baAAda yawmin faisali alAAaddeena
قَالُوا۟ لَبِثْنَا يَوْمًا أَوْ بَعْضَ يَوْمٍ فَسْـَٔلِ ٱلْعَآدِّينَ
He will say: "Ye stayed not but a little, - if ye had only known!
قال إن لبثتم إلا قليلا ۖ لو أنكم كنتم تعلمون
Qala in labithtum illa qaleelan law annakum kuntum taAAlamoona
قَٰلَ إِن لَّبِثْتُمْ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا لَّوْ أَنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
"Did ye then think that We had created you in jest, and that ye would not be brought back to Us (for account)?"
أفحسبتم أنما خلقناكم عبثا وأنكم إلينا لا ترجعون
Afahasibtum annama khalaqnakum AAabathan waannakum ilayna la turjaAAoona
أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ
Therefore exalted be Allah, the King, the Reality: there is no god but He, the Lord of the Throne of Honour!
فتعالى الله الملك الحق ۖ لا إله إلا هو رب العرش الكريم
FataAAala Allahu almaliku alhaqqu la ilaha illa huwa rabbu alAAarshi alkareemi
فَتَعَٰلَى ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْحَقُّ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْكَرِيمِ
If anyone invokes, besides Allah, Any other god, he has no authority therefor; and his reckoning will be only with his Lord! and verily the Unbelievers will fail to win through!
ومن يدع مع الله إلها آخر لا برهان له به فإنما حسابه عند ربه ۚ إنه لا يفلح الكافرون
Waman yadAAu maAAa Allahi ilahan akhara la burhana lahu bihi fainnama hisabuhu AAinda rabbihi innahu la yuflihu alkafiroona
وَمَن يَدْعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ لَا بُرْهَٰنَ لَهُۥ بِهِۦ فَإِنَّمَا حِسَابُهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّهِۦٓ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُفْلِحُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ
So say: "O my Lord! grant Thou forgiveness and mercy for Thou art the Best of those who show mercy!"
وقل رب اغفر وارحم وأنت خير الراحمين
Waqul rabbi ighfir wairham waanta khayru alrrahimeena
وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱغْفِرْ وَٱرْحَمْ وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰحِمِينَ
