طسم(1) Ta-Sin-Mim. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Quran, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings.] |
تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ(2) These are the Verses of the manifest Book [this Quran, which was promised by Allah in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel), makes things clear]. |
لَعَلَّكَ بَاخِعٌ نَّفْسَكَ أَلَّا يَكُونُوا مُؤْمِنِينَ(3) It may be that you (O Muhammad SAW) are going to kill yourself with grief, that they do not become believers [in your Risalah (Messengership) and in your Message of Islamic Monotheism]. |
إِن نَّشَأْ نُنَزِّلْ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ آيَةً فَظَلَّتْ أَعْنَاقُهُمْ لَهَا خَاضِعِينَ(4) If We will, We could send down to them from the heaven a sign, to which they would bend their necks in humility. |
وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن ذِكْرٍ مِّنَ الرَّحْمَٰنِ مُحْدَثٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا عَنْهُ مُعْرِضِينَ(5) And never comes there unto them a Reminder as a recent revelation from the Most Beneficent (Allah), but they turn away therefrom. |
فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوا فَسَيَأْتِيهِمْ أَنبَاءُ مَا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ(6) So they have indeed denied (the truth - this Quran), then the news of what they mocked at, will come to them. |
أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ كَمْ أَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوْجٍ كَرِيمٍ(7) Do they not observe the earth, how much of every good kind We cause to grow therein? |
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ(8) Verily, in this is an Ayah (proof or sign), yet most of them (polytheists, pagans, etc., who do not believe in Resurrection) are not believers. |
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ(9) And verily, your Lord! He is truly the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful. |
وَإِذْ نَادَىٰ رَبُّكَ مُوسَىٰ أَنِ ائْتِ الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ(10) And (remember) when your Lord called Musa (Moses) (saying): "Go to the people who are Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doing), |
قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ أَلَا يَتَّقُونَ(11) The people of Fir'aun (Pharaoh). Will they not fear Allah and become righteous?" |
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ(12) He said: "My Lord! Verily, I fear that they will belie me, |
وَيَضِيقُ صَدْرِي وَلَا يَنطَلِقُ لِسَانِي فَأَرْسِلْ إِلَىٰ هَارُونَ(13) "And my breast straitens, and my tongue expresses not well. So send for Harun (Aaron) (to come along with me). |
وَلَهُمْ عَلَيَّ ذَنبٌ فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقْتُلُونِ(14) "And they have a charge of crime against me, and I fear they will kill me." |
قَالَ كَلَّا ۖ فَاذْهَبَا بِآيَاتِنَا ۖ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّسْتَمِعُونَ(15) Allah said: "Nay! Go you both with Our Signs. Verily! We shall be with you, listening. |
فَأْتِيَا فِرْعَوْنَ فَقُولَا إِنَّا رَسُولُ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ(16) "And when you both come to Fir'aun (Pharaoh), say: 'We are the Messengers of the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists), |
أَنْ أَرْسِلْ مَعَنَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ(17) "So allow the Children of Israel to go with us.' " |
قَالَ أَلَمْ نُرَبِّكَ فِينَا وَلِيدًا وَلَبِثْتَ فِينَا مِنْ عُمُرِكَ سِنِينَ(18) [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] said [to Musa (Moses)]: "Did we not bring you up among us as a child? And you did dwell many years of your life with us. |
وَفَعَلْتَ فَعْلَتَكَ الَّتِي فَعَلْتَ وَأَنتَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ(19) "And you did your deed, which you did (i.e. the crime of killing a man). And you are one of the ingrates." |
قَالَ فَعَلْتُهَا إِذًا وَأَنَا مِنَ الضَّالِّينَ(20) Musa (Moses) said: "I did it then, when I was an ignorant (as regards my Lord and His Message). |
فَفَرَرْتُ مِنكُمْ لَمَّا خِفْتُكُمْ فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكْمًا وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ(21) "So I fled from you when I feared you. But my Lord has granted me Hukman (i.e. religious knowledge, right judgement of the affairs and Prophethood), and appointed me as one of the Messengers. |
وَتِلْكَ نِعْمَةٌ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَيَّ أَنْ عَبَّدتَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ(22) "And this is the past favour with which you reproach me, that you have enslaved the Children of Israel." |
قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَا رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ(23) Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "And what is the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists)?" |
قَالَ رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ(24) Musa (Moses) said: "Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, if you seek to be convinced with certainty." |
قَالَ لِمَنْ حَوْلَهُ أَلَا تَسْتَمِعُونَ(25) Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said to those around: "Do you not hear (what he says)?" |
قَالَ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الْأَوَّلِينَ(26) Musa (Moses) said: "Your Lord and the Lord of your ancient fathers!" |
قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَكُمُ الَّذِي أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ لَمَجْنُونٌ(27) Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "Verily, your Messenger who has been sent to you is a madman!" |
قَالَ رَبُّ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۖ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ(28) Musa (Moses) said: "Lord of the east and the west, and all that is between them, if you did but understand!" |
قَالَ لَئِنِ اتَّخَذْتَ إِلَٰهًا غَيْرِي لَأَجْعَلَنَّكَ مِنَ الْمَسْجُونِينَ(29) Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "If you choose an ilah (god) other than me, I will certainly put you among the prisoners." |
قَالَ أَوَلَوْ جِئْتُكَ بِشَيْءٍ مُّبِينٍ(30) Musa (Moses) said: "Even if I bring you something manifest (and convincing)?" |
قَالَ فَأْتِ بِهِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ(31) Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "Bring it forth then, if you are of the truthful!" |
فَأَلْقَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ ثُعْبَانٌ مُّبِينٌ(32) So [Musa (Moses)] threw his stick, and behold, it was a serpent, manifest. |
وَنَزَعَ يَدَهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ بَيْضَاءُ لِلنَّاظِرِينَ(33) And he drew out his hand, and behold, it was white to all beholders! |
قَالَ لِلْمَلَإِ حَوْلَهُ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَسَاحِرٌ عَلِيمٌ(34) [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] said to the chiefs around him: "Verily! This is indeed a well-versed sorcerer. |
يُرِيدُ أَن يُخْرِجَكُم مِّنْ أَرْضِكُم بِسِحْرِهِ فَمَاذَا تَأْمُرُونَ(35) "He wants to drive you out of your land by his sorcery, then what is it your counsel, and what do you command?" |
قَالُوا أَرْجِهْ وَأَخَاهُ وَابْعَثْ فِي الْمَدَائِنِ حَاشِرِينَ(36) They said: "Put him off and his brother (for a while), and send callers to the cities |
يَأْتُوكَ بِكُلِّ سَحَّارٍ عَلِيمٍ(37) "To bring up to you every well-versed sorcerer." |
فَجُمِعَ السَّحَرَةُ لِمِيقَاتِ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ(38) So the sorcerers were assembled at a fixed time on a day appointed. |
وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلْ أَنتُم مُّجْتَمِعُونَ(39) And it was said to the people: "Are you (too) going to assemble? |
لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ السَّحَرَةَ إِن كَانُوا هُمُ الْغَالِبِينَ(40) "That we may follow the sorcerers [who were on Fir'aun's (Pharaoh) religion of disbelief] if they are the winners." |
فَلَمَّا جَاءَ السَّحَرَةُ قَالُوا لِفِرْعَوْنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجْرًا إِن كُنَّا نَحْنُ الْغَالِبِينَ(41) So when the sorcerers arrived, they said to Fir'aun (Pharaoh): "Will there surely be a reward for us if we are the winners?" |
قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِذًا لَّمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ(42) He said: "Yes, and you shall then verily be of those brought near (to myself)." |
قَالَ لَهُم مُّوسَىٰ أَلْقُوا مَا أَنتُم مُّلْقُونَ(43) Musa (Moses) said to them: "Throw what you are going to throw!" |
فَأَلْقَوْا حِبَالَهُمْ وَعِصِيَّهُمْ وَقَالُوا بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْغَالِبُونَ(44) So they threw their ropes and their sticks, and said: "By the might of Fir'aun (Pharaoh), it is we who will certainly win!" |
فَأَلْقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلْقَفُ مَا يَأْفِكُونَ(45) Then Musa (Moses) threw his stick, and behold, it swallowed up all the falsehoods which they showed! |
فَأُلْقِيَ السَّحَرَةُ سَاجِدِينَ(46) And the sorcerers fell down prostrate. |
قَالُوا آمَنَّا بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ(47) Saying: "We believe in the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). |
رَبِّ مُوسَىٰ وَهَارُونَ(48) "The Lord of Musa (Moses) and Harun (Aaron)." |
قَالَ آمَنتُمْ لَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ آذَنَ لَكُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ الَّذِي عَلَّمَكُمُ السِّحْرَ فَلَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ۚ لَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيْدِيَكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُم مِّنْ خِلَافٍ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ(49) [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] said: "You have believed in him before I give you leave. Surely, he indeed is your chief, who has taught you magic! So verily, you shall come to know. Verily, I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will crucify you all." |
قَالُوا لَا ضَيْرَ ۖ إِنَّا إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا مُنقَلِبُونَ(50) They said: "No harm! Surely, to our Lord (Allah) we are to return; |
إِنَّا نَطْمَعُ أَن يَغْفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطَايَانَا أَن كُنَّا أَوَّلَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ(51) "Verily! We really hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, as we are the first of the believers [in Musa (Moses) and in the Monotheism which he has brought from Allah]." |
۞ وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ أَنْ أَسْرِ بِعِبَادِي إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ(52) And We inspired Musa (Moses), saying: "Take away My slaves by night, verily, you will be pursued." |
فَأَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ فِي الْمَدَائِنِ حَاشِرِينَ(53) Then Fir'aun (Pharaoh) sent callers to (all) the cities. |
إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ لَشِرْذِمَةٌ قَلِيلُونَ(54) (Saying): "Verily! These indeed are but a small band. |
وَإِنَّهُمْ لَنَا لَغَائِظُونَ(55) "And verily, they have done what has enraged us; |
وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَاذِرُونَ(56) "But we are host all assembled, amply fore-warned." |
فَأَخْرَجْنَاهُم مِّن جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ(57) So, We expelled them from gardens and springs, |
وَكُنُوزٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ(58) Treasures, and every kind of honourable place. |
كَذَٰلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ(59) Thus [We turned them (Pharaoh's people) out] and We caused the Children of Israel to inherit them. |
فَأَتْبَعُوهُم مُّشْرِقِينَ(60) So they pursued them at sunrise. |
فَلَمَّا تَرَاءَى الْجَمْعَانِ قَالَ أَصْحَابُ مُوسَىٰ إِنَّا لَمُدْرَكُونَ(61) And when the two hosts saw each other, the companions of Musa (Moses) said: "We are sure to be overtaken." |
قَالَ كَلَّا ۖ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهْدِينِ(62) [Musa (Moses)] said: "Nay, verily! With me is my Lord, He will guide me." |
فَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ أَنِ اضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ الْبَحْرَ ۖ فَانفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرْقٍ كَالطَّوْدِ الْعَظِيمِ(63) Then We inspired Musa (Moses) (saying): "Strike the sea with your stick." And it parted, and each separate part (of that sea water) became like the huge, firm mass of a mountain. |
وَأَزْلَفْنَا ثَمَّ الْآخَرِينَ(64) Then We brought near the others [Fir'aun's (Pharaoh) party] to that place. |
وَأَنجَيْنَا مُوسَىٰ وَمَن مَّعَهُ أَجْمَعِينَ(65) And We saved Musa (Moses) and all those with him. |
ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا الْآخَرِينَ(66) Then We drowned the others. |
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ(67) Verily! In this is indeed a sign (or a proof), yet most of them are not believers. |
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ(68) And verily, your Lord! He is truly the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful. |
وَاتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ(69) And recite to them the story of Ibrahim (Abraham). |
إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ(70) When he said to his father and his people: "What do you worship?" |
قَالُوا نَعْبُدُ أَصْنَامًا فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَاكِفِينَ(71) They said: "We worship idols, and to them we are ever devoted." |
قَالَ هَلْ يَسْمَعُونَكُمْ إِذْ تَدْعُونَ(72) He said: "Do they hear you, when you call (on them)? |
أَوْ يَنفَعُونَكُمْ أَوْ يَضُرُّونَ(73) "Or do they benefit you or do they harm (you)?" |
قَالُوا بَلْ وَجَدْنَا آبَاءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفْعَلُونَ(74) They said: "Nay, but we found our fathers doing so." |
قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتُم مَّا كُنتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ(75) He said: "Do you observe that which you have been worshipping, |
أَنتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمُ الْأَقْدَمُونَ(76) "You and your ancient fathers? |
فَإِنَّهُمْ عَدُوٌّ لِّي إِلَّا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ(77) "Verily! They are enemies to me, save the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists); |
الَّذِي خَلَقَنِي فَهُوَ يَهْدِينِ(78) "Who has created me, and it is He Who guides me; |
وَالَّذِي هُوَ يُطْعِمُنِي وَيَسْقِينِ(79) "And it is He Who feeds me and gives me to drink. |
وَإِذَا مَرِضْتُ فَهُوَ يَشْفِينِ(80) "And when I am ill, it is He who cures me. |
وَالَّذِي يُمِيتُنِي ثُمَّ يُحْيِينِ(81) "And Who will cause me to die, and then will bring me to life (again); |
وَالَّذِي أَطْمَعُ أَن يَغْفِرَ لِي خَطِيئَتِي يَوْمَ الدِّينِ(82) "And Who, I hope will forgive me my faults on the Day of Recompense, (the Day of Resurrection)," |
رَبِّ هَبْ لِي حُكْمًا وَأَلْحِقْنِي بِالصَّالِحِينَ(83) My Lord! Bestow Hukman (religious knowledge, right judgement of the affairs and Prophethood) on me, and join me with the righteous; |
وَاجْعَل لِّي لِسَانَ صِدْقٍ فِي الْآخِرِينَ(84) And grant me an honourable mention in later generations; |
وَاجْعَلْنِي مِن وَرَثَةِ جَنَّةِ النَّعِيمِ(85) And make me one of the inheritors of the Paradise of Delight; |
وَاغْفِرْ لِأَبِي إِنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الضَّالِّينَ(86) And forgive my father, verily he is of the erring; |
وَلَا تُخْزِنِي يَوْمَ يُبْعَثُونَ(87) And disgrace me not on the Day when (all the creatures) will be resurrected; |
يَوْمَ لَا يَنفَعُ مَالٌ وَلَا بَنُونَ(88) The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons will avail, |
إِلَّا مَنْ أَتَى اللَّهَ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ(89) Except him who brings to Allah a clean heart [clean from Shirk (polytheism) and Nifaq (hypocrisy)]. |
وَأُزْلِفَتِ الْجَنَّةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ(90) And Paradise will be brought near to the Muttaqun (pious - see V. 2:2). |
وَبُرِّزَتِ الْجَحِيمُ لِلْغَاوِينَ(91) And the (Hell) Fire will be placed in full view of the erring. |
وَقِيلَ لَهُمْ أَيْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ(92) And it will be said to them: "Where are those (the false gods whom you used to set up as rivals with Allah) that you used to worship |
مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ هَلْ يَنصُرُونَكُمْ أَوْ يَنتَصِرُونَ(93) "Instead of Allah? Can they help you or (even) help themselves?" |
فَكُبْكِبُوا فِيهَا هُمْ وَالْغَاوُونَ(94) Then they will be thrown on their faces into the (Fire), They and the Ghawun (devils, and those who were in error). |
وَجُنُودُ إِبْلِيسَ أَجْمَعُونَ(95) And the whole hosts of Iblis (Satan) together. |
قَالُوا وَهُمْ فِيهَا يَخْتَصِمُونَ(96) They will say while contending therein, |
تَاللَّهِ إِن كُنَّا لَفِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ(97) By Allah, we were truly in a manifest error, |
إِذْ نُسَوِّيكُم بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ(98) When We held you (false gods) as equals (in worship) with the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists); |
وَمَا أَضَلَّنَا إِلَّا الْمُجْرِمُونَ(99) And none has brought us into error except the Mujrimun [Iblis (Satan) and those of human beings who commit crimes, murderers, polytheists, oppressors, etc.]. |
فَمَا لَنَا مِن شَافِعِينَ(100) Now we have no intercessors, |
وَلَا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٍ(101) Nor a close friend (to help us). |
فَلَوْ أَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةً فَنَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ(102) (Alas!) If we only had a chance to return (to the world), we shall truly be among the believers! |
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ(103) Verily! In this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers. |
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ(104) And verily, your Lord! He is truly the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful. |
كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ الْمُرْسَلِينَ(105) The people of Nuh (Noah) belied the Messengers. |
إِذْ قَالَ لَهُمْ أَخُوهُمْ نُوحٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ(106) When their brother Nuh (Noah) said to them: "Will you not fear Allah and obey Him? |
إِنِّي لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ(107) "I am a trustworthy Messenger to you. |
فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ(108) "So fear Allah, keep your duty to Him, and obey me. |
وَمَا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ ۖ إِنْ أَجْرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ(109) "No reward do I ask of you for it (my Message of Islamic Monotheism), my reward is only from the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). |
فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ(110) "So keep your duty to Allah, fear Him and obey me." |
۞ قَالُوا أَنُؤْمِنُ لَكَ وَاتَّبَعَكَ الْأَرْذَلُونَ(111) They said: "Shall we believe in you, when the meanest (of the people) follow you?" |
قَالَ وَمَا عِلْمِي بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ(112) He said: "And what knowledge have I of what they used to do? |
إِنْ حِسَابُهُمْ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّي ۖ لَوْ تَشْعُرُونَ(113) "Their account is only with my Lord, if you could (but) know. |
وَمَا أَنَا بِطَارِدِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ(114) "And I am not going to drive away the believers. |
إِنْ أَنَا إِلَّا نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ(115) I am only a plain warner." |
قَالُوا لَئِن لَّمْ تَنتَهِ يَا نُوحُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمَرْجُومِينَ(116) They said: "If you cease not, O Nuh (Noah)! You will surely be among those stoned (to death)." |
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنَّ قَوْمِي كَذَّبُونِ(117) He said: "My Lord! Verily, my people have belied me. |
فَافْتَحْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ فَتْحًا وَنَجِّنِي وَمَن مَّعِيَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ(118) Therefore judge You between me and them, and save me and those of the believers who are with me." |
فَأَنجَيْنَاهُ وَمَن مَّعَهُ فِي الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ(119) And We saved him and those with him in the laden ship. |
ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا بَعْدُ الْبَاقِينَ(120) Then We drowned the rest (disbelievers) thereafter. |
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ(121) Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers. |
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ(122) And verily! Your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful. |
كَذَّبَتْ عَادٌ الْمُرْسَلِينَ(123) 'Ad (people) belied the Messengers. |
إِذْ قَالَ لَهُمْ أَخُوهُمْ هُودٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ(124) When their brother Hud said to them: "Will you not fear Allah and obey Him? |
إِنِّي لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ(125) "Verily! I am a trustworthy Messenger to you. |

وَزِنُوا بِالْقِسْطَاسِ الْمُسْتَقِيمِ(182) "And weigh with the true and straight balance. |
وَلَا تَبْخَسُوا النَّاسَ أَشْيَاءَهُمْ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا فِي الْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ(183) "And defraud not people by reducing their things, nor do evil, making corruption and mischief in the land. |

قَالُوا إِنَّمَا أَنتَ مِنَ الْمُسَحَّرِينَ(185) They said: "You are only one of those bewitched! |
وَمَا أَنتَ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا وَإِن نَّظُنُّكَ لَمِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ(186) "You are but a human being like us and verily, we think that you are one of the liars! |
فَأَسْقِطْ عَلَيْنَا كِسَفًا مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ(187) "So cause a piece of the heaven to fall on us, if you are of the truthful!" |
قَالَ رَبِّي أَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ(188) He said: "My Lord is the Best Knower of what you do." |
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمِ الظُّلَّةِ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ(189) But they belied him, so the torment of the day of shadow (a gloomy cloud) seized them, indeed that was the torment of a Great Day. |
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ(190) Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers. |
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ(191) And verily! Your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful. |
وَإِنَّهُ لَتَنزِيلُ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ(192) And truly, this (the Quran) is a revelation from the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists), |
نَزَلَ بِهِ الرُّوحُ الْأَمِينُ(193) Which the trustworthy Ruh [Jibrael (Gabriel)] has brought down; |
عَلَىٰ قَلْبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُنذِرِينَ(194) Upon your heart (O Muhammad SAW) that you may be (one) of the warners, |
بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ مُّبِينٍ(195) In the plain Arabic language. |
وَإِنَّهُ لَفِي زُبُرِ الْأَوَّلِينَ(196) And verily, it (the Quran, and its revelation to Prophet Muhammad SAW) is (announced) in the Scriptures [i.e. the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] of former people. |
أَوَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُمْ آيَةً أَن يَعْلَمَهُ عُلَمَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ(197) Is it not a sign to them that the learned scholars (like 'Abdullah bin Salam who embraced Islam) of the Children of Israel knew it (as true)? |
وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَاهُ عَلَىٰ بَعْضِ الْأَعْجَمِينَ(198) And if We had revealed it (this Quran) unto any of the non-Arabs, |
فَقَرَأَهُ عَلَيْهِم مَّا كَانُوا بِهِ مُؤْمِنِينَ(199) And he had recited it unto them, they would not have believed in it. |
كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكْنَاهُ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ(200) Thus have We caused it (the denial of the Quran) to enter the hearts of the Mujrimun (criminals, polytheists, sinners, etc.). |
لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُا الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ(201) They will not believe in it until they see the painful torment; |
فَيَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ(202) It shall come to them of a sudden, while they perceive it not; |
فَيَقُولُوا هَلْ نَحْنُ مُنظَرُونَ(203) Then they will say: "Can we be respited?" |
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ(204) Would they then wish for Our Torment to be hastened on? |
أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِن مَّتَّعْنَاهُمْ سِنِينَ(205) Tell Me, if We do let them enjoy for years, |
ثُمَّ جَاءَهُم مَّا كَانُوا يُوعَدُونَ(206) And afterwards comes to them that (punishment) which they had been promised! |
مَا أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا يُمَتَّعُونَ(207) All that with which they used to enjoy shall not avail them. |
وَمَا أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا لَهَا مُنذِرُونَ(208) And never did We destroy a township, but it had its warners |
ذِكْرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ(209) By way of reminder, and We have never been unjust. |
وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتْ بِهِ الشَّيَاطِينُ(210) And it is not the Shayatin (devils) who have brought it (this Quran) down, |
وَمَا يَنبَغِي لَهُمْ وَمَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ(211) Neither would it suit them, nor they can (produce it). |
إِنَّهُمْ عَنِ السَّمْعِ لَمَعْزُولُونَ(212) Verily, they have been removed far from hearing it. |
فَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُعَذَّبِينَ(213) So invoke not with Allah another ilah (god) lest you be among those who receive punishment. |
وَأَنذِرْ عَشِيرَتَكَ الْأَقْرَبِينَ(214) And warn your tribe (O Muhammad SAW) of near kindred. |
وَاخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ(215) And be kind and humble to the believers who follow you. |
فَإِنْ عَصَوْكَ فَقُلْ إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ مِّمَّا تَعْمَلُونَ(216) Then if they disobey you, say: "I am innocent of what you do." |
وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى الْعَزِيزِ الرَّحِيمِ(217) And put your trust in the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful, |
الَّذِي يَرَاكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ(218) Who sees you (O Muhammad SAW) when you stand up (alone at night for Tahajjud prayers). |
وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِي السَّاجِدِينَ(219) And your movements among those who fall prostrate (along with you to Allah in the five compulsory congregational prayers). |
إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ(220) Verily! He, only He, is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower. |
هَلْ أُنَبِّئُكُمْ عَلَىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ الشَّيَاطِينُ(221) Shall I inform you (O people!) upon whom the Shayatin (devils) descend? |
تَنَزَّلُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٍ(222) They descend on every lying (one who tells lies), sinful person. |
يُلْقُونَ السَّمْعَ وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ كَاذِبُونَ(223) Who gives ear (to the devils and they pour what they may have heard of the unseen from the angels), and most of them are liars. |
وَالشُّعَرَاءُ يَتَّبِعُهُمُ الْغَاوُونَ(224) As for the poets, the erring follow them, |
أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّهُمْ فِي كُلِّ وَادٍ يَهِيمُونَ(225) See you not that they speak about every subject (praising others right or wrong) in their poetry? |
وَأَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ مَا لَا يَفْعَلُونَ(226) And that they say what they do not do. |
إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَذَكَرُوا اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَانتَصَرُوا مِن بَعْدِ مَا ظُلِمُوا ۗ وَسَيَعْلَمُ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا أَيَّ مُنقَلَبٍ يَنقَلِبُونَ(227) Except those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds, and remember Allah much, and reply back (in poetry) to the unjust poetry (which the pagan poets utter against the Muslims). And those who do wrong will come to know by what overturning they will be overturned. |
