فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَٰتِ أَمْرًا
Verily that which ye are promised is true;
Innama tooAAadoona lasadiqun
إنما توعدون لصادق
إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌ
And verily Judgment and Justice must indeed come to pass.
Wainna alddeena lawaqiAAun
وإن الدين لواقع

By the Sky with (its) numerous Paths,
Waalssamai thati alhubuki
والسماء ذات الحبك
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ
Truly ye are in a doctrine discordant,
Innakum lafee qawlin mukhtalifin
إنكم لفي قول مختلف
إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍ مُّخْتَلِفٍ
Through which are deluded (away from the Truth) such as would be deluded.

قُتِلَ ٱلْخَرَّٰصُونَ
Those who (flounder) heedless in a flood of confusion:

الذين هم في غمرة ساهون
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍ سَاهُونَ
They ask, "When will be the Day of Judgment and Justice?"

يسألون أيان يوم الدين
يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
(It will be) a Day when they will be tried (and tested) over the Fire!

يوم هم على النار يفتنون
يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ
"Taste ye your trial! This is what ye used to ask to be hastened!"
Thooqoo fitnatakum hatha allathee kuntum bihi tastaAAjiloona

ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
As to the Righteous, they will be in the midst of Gardens and Springs,
Inna almuttaqeena fee jannatin waAAuyoonin
إن المتقين في جنات وعيون
إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
Taking joy in the things which their Lord gives them, because, before then, they lived a good life.
Akhitheena ma atahum rabbuhum innahum kanoo qabla thalika muhsineena
آخذين ما آتاهم ربهم ۚ إنهم كانوا قبل ذلك محسنين
ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ
They were in the habit of sleeping but little by night,

كانوا قليلا من الليل ما يهجعون
كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ
And in the hour of early dawn, they (were found) praying for Forgiveness;
Wabialashari hum yastaghfiroona
وبالأسحار هم يستغفرون
وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ
And in their wealth and possessions (was remembered) the right of the (needy,) him who asked, and him who (for some reason) was prevented (from asking).
Wafee amwalihim haqqun lilssaili waalmahroomi
وفي أموالهم حق للسائل والمحروم
وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ
On the earth are signs for those of assured Faith,
Wafee alardi ayatun lilmooqineena
وفي الأرض آيات للموقنين
وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَٰتٌ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ
As also in your own selves: Will ye not then see?

وفي أنفسكم ۚ أفلا تبصرون
وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ
And in heaven is your Sustenance, as (also) that which ye are promised.
Wafee alssamai rizqukum wama tooAAadoona
وفي السماء رزقكم وما توعدون
وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ
Then, by the Lord of heaven and earth, this is the very Truth, as much as the fact that ye can speak intelligently to each other.
Fawarabbi alssamai waalardi innahu lahaqqun mithla ma annakum tantiqoona
فورب السماء والأرض إنه لحق مثل ما أنكم تنطقون
فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ
Has the story reached thee, of the honoured guests of Abraham?
Hal ataka hadeethu dayfi ibraheema almukrameena
هل أتاك حديث ضيف إبراهيم المكرمين
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ
Behold, they entered his presence, and said: "Peace!" He said, "Peace!" (and thought, "These seem) unusual people."

Then he turned quickly to his household, brought out a fatted calf,

And placed it before them.. he said, "Will ye not eat?"
Faqarrabahu ilayhim qala ala takuloona
فقربه إليهم قال ألا تأكلون
فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ
(When they did not eat), He conceived a fear of them. They said, "Fear not," and they gave him glad tidings of a son endowed with knowledge.

They said, "Even so has thy Lord spoken: and He is full of Wisdom and Knowledge."
Qaloo kathaliki qala rabbuki innahu huwa alhakeemu alAAaleemu
قالوا كذلك قال ربك ۖ إنه هو الحكيم العليم
قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ
(Abraham) said: "And what, O ye Messengers, is your errand (now)?"
Qala fama khatbukum ayyuha almursaloona
۞ قال فما خطبكم أيها المرسلون
قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ
They said, "We have been sent to a people (deep) in sin; -
Qaloo inna orsilna ila qawmin mujrimeena
قالوا إنا أرسلنا إلى قوم مجرمين
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ
"To bring on, on them, (a shower of) stones of clay (brimstone),

لنرسل عليهم حجارة من طين
لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن طِينٍ

Musawwamatan AAinda rabbika lilmusrifeena
مسومة عند ربك للمسرفين
مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ
Then We evacuated those of the Believers who were there,
Faakhrajna man kana feeha mina almumineena
فأخرجنا من كان فيها من المؤمنين
فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
But We found not there any just (Muslim) persons except in one house:
Fama wajadna feeha ghayra baytin mina almuslimeena
فما وجدنا فيها غير بيت من المسلمين
فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ
And We left there a Sign for such as fear the Grievous Penalty.

وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ
But (Pharaoh) turned back with his Chiefs, and said, "A sorcerer, or one possessed!"
Fatawalla biruknihi waqala sahirun aw majnoonun
فتولى بركنه وقال ساحر أو مجنون
فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ
So We took him and his forces, and threw them into the sea; and his was the blame.
Faakhathnahu wajunoodahu fanabathnahum fee alyammi wahuwa muleemun
فأخذناه وجنوده فنبذناهم في اليم وهو مليم

And in the 'Ad (people) (was another Sign): Behold, We sent against them the devastating Wind:
Wafee AAadin ith arsalna AAalayhimu alrreeha alAAaqeema
وفي عاد إذ أرسلنا عليهم الريح العقيم
وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ
It left nothing whatever that it came up against, but reduced it to ruin and rottenness.
Ma tatharu min shayin atat AAalayhi illa jaAAalathu kaalrrameemi
ما تذر من شيء أتت عليه إلا جعلته كالرميم
مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ

وفي ثمود إذ قيل لهم تمتعوا حتى حين
وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
But they insolently defied the Command of their Lord: So the stunning noise (of an earthquake) seized them, even while they were looking on.
FaAAataw AAan amri rabbihim faakhathathumu alssaAAiqatu wahum yanthuroona
فعتوا عن أمر ربهم فأخذتهم الصاعقة وهم ينظرون
فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ
Then they could not even stand (on their feet), nor could they help themselves.
Fama istataAAoo min qiyamin wama kanoo muntasireena
فما استطاعوا من قيام وما كانوا منتصرين
فَمَا ٱسْتَطَٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ
So were the People of Noah before them for they wickedly transgressed.
Waqawma noohin min qablu innahum kanoo qawman fasiqeena

And We have spread out the (spacious) earth: How excellently We do spread out!
Waalarda farashnaha faniAAma almahidoona

And of every thing We have created pairs: That ye may receive instruction.
Wamin kulli shayin khalaqna zawjayni laAAallakum tathakkaroona
ومن كل شيء خلقنا زوجين لعلكم تذكرون
وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ
Hasten ye then (at once) to Allah: I am from Him a Warner to you, clear and open!
Fafirroo ila Allahi innee lakum minhu natheerun mubeenun
ففروا إلى الله ۖ إني لكم منه نذير مبين
فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ

Similarly, no messenger came to the Peoples before them, but they said (of him) in like manner, "A sorcerer, or one possessed"!
Kathalika ma ata allatheena min qablihim min rasoolin illa qaloo sahirun aw majnoonun
كذلك ما أتى الذين من قبلهم من رسول إلا قالوا ساحر أو مجنون
كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ
Is this the legacy they have transmitted, one to another? Nay, they are themselves a people transgressing beyond bounds!
Atawasaw bihi bal hum qawmun taghoona
أتواصوا به ۚ بل هم قوم طاغون
أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ
So turn away from them: not thine is the blame.
Fatawalla AAanhum fama anta bimaloomin
فتول عنهم فما أنت بملوم
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ
But teach (thy Message) for teaching benefits the Believers.

I have only created Jinns and men, that they may serve Me.
Wama khalaqtu aljinna waalinsa illa liyaAAbudooni
وما خلقت الجن والإنس إلا ليعبدون

No Sustenance do I require of them, nor do I require that they should feed Me.
Ma oreedu minhum min rizqin wama oreedu an yutAAimooni
ما أريد منهم من رزق وما أريد أن يطعمون
مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ
For Allah is He Who gives (all) Sustenance, - Lord of Power, - Steadfast (for ever).
Inna Allaha huwa alrrazzaqu thoo alquwwati almateenu
إن الله هو الرزاق ذو القوة المتين
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ
For the Wrong - doers, their portion is like unto the portion of their fellows (of earlier generations): then let them not ask Me to hasten (that portion)!
