In the name of God, the Almighty, the Merciful.
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّح۪يمِ
Bismi Allahi arrahmani arraheem
Drawn nigh to men has their reckoning, while they in heedlessness are turning away;
اِقْتَرَبَ لِلنَّاسِ حِسَابُهُمْ وَهُمْ ف۪ي غَفْلَةٍ مُعْرِضُونَۚ
Iqtaraba linnasi hisabuhumwahum fee ghaflatin muAAridoon
No remembrance from their Lord comes to them anew but they listen to it while they play,
مَا يَأْت۪يهِمْ مِنْ ذِكْرٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ مُحْدَثٍ اِلَّا اسْتَمَعُوهُ وَهُمْ يَلْعَبُونَۙ
Ma ya/teehim min thikrin minrabbihim muhdathin illa istamaAAoohu wahumyalAAaboon
Their hearts distracted. And those who do wrong conceal their private conversation: “Is this save a mortal like you? Will you go to sorcery with open eyes?”
لَاهِيَةً قُلُوبُهُمْۜ وَاَسَرُّوا النَّجْوٰىۗ اَلَّذ۪ينَ ظَلَمُواۗ هَلْ هٰذَٓا اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْۚ اَفَتَأْتُونَ السِّحْرَ وَاَنْتُمْ تُبْصِرُونَ
Lahiyatan quloobuhum waasarroo annajwaallatheena thalamoo hal hatha illabasharun mithlukum afata/toona assihra waantum tubsiroon
Say thou: “My Lord knows what is said in the heaven and the earth; and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.”
قَالَ رَبّ۪ي يَعْلَمُ الْقَوْلَ فِي السَّمَٓاءِ وَالْاَرْضِۘ وَهُوَ السَّم۪يعُ الْعَل۪يمُ
Qala rabbee yaAAlamu alqawla fee assama-iwal-ardi wahuwa assameeAAu alAAaleem
“But,” — they say — “a confused medley of dreams; but he has invented it; but he is a poet. So let him bring us a proof like that sent to the former peoples!”
بَلْ قَالُٓوا اَضْغَاثُ اَحْلَامٍ بَلِ افْتَرٰيهُ بَلْ هُوَ شَاعِرٌۚ فَلْيَأْتِنَا بِاٰيَةٍ كَمَٓا اُرْسِلَ الْاَوَّلُونَ
Bal qaloo adghathu ahlaminbali iftarahu bal huwa shaAAirun falya/tinabi-ayatin kama orsila al-awwaloon
No city believed before them among those We destroyed; will they then believe?
مَٓا اٰمَنَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ اَهْلَكْنَاهَاۚ اَفَهُمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ
Ma amanat qablahum min qaryatinahlaknaha afahum yu/minoon
And We sent before thee only men to whom We revealed — and ask the people of the remembrance, if you know not —
وَمَٓا اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ اِلَّا رِجَالاً نُوح۪ٓي اِلَيْهِمْ فَسْـَٔلُٓوا اَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ
Wama arsalna qablaka illarijalan noohee ilayhim fas-aloo ahla aththikriin kuntum la taAAlamoon
And We gave them not bodies that ate not food, nor were they immortals;
وَمَا جَعَلْنَاهُمْ جَسَداً لَا يَأْكُلُونَ الطَّعَامَ وَمَا كَانُوا خَالِد۪ينَ
Wama jaAAalnahum jasadan laya/kuloona attaAAama wama kanookhalideen
Then fulfilled We the promise to them, and delivered them and whom We wished, and destroyed the committers of excess.
ثُمَّ صَدَقْنَاهُمُ الْوَعْدَ فَاَنْجَيْنَاهُمْ وَمَنْ نَشَٓاءُ وَاَهْلَكْنَا الْمُسْرِف۪ينَ
Thumma sadaqnahumu alwaAAdafaanjaynahum waman nashao waahlaknaalmusrifeen
We have sent down to you a Writ wherein is your remembrance; will you then not use reason!
لَقَدْ اَنْزَلْـنَٓا اِلَيْكُمْ كِتَاباً ف۪يهِ ذِكْرُكُمْۜ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ۟
Laqad anzalna ilaykum kitabanfeehi thikrukum afala taAAqiloon
And how many a city that was doing wrong did We utterly destroy, and produced after it another people!
وَكَمْ قَصَمْنَا مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ كَانَتْ ظَالِمَةً وَاَنْشَأْنَا بَعْدَهَا قَوْماً اٰخَر۪ينَ
Wakam qasamna min qaryatin kanatthalimatan waansha/na baAAdahaqawman akhareen
And when they perceived Our might, then did they flee from it.
فَلَمَّٓا اَحَسُّوا بَأْسَنَٓا اِذَا هُمْ مِنْهَا يَرْكُضُونَۜ
Falamma ahassoo ba/sanaitha hum minha yarkudoon
“Flee not! But return to that wherein you were given opulence, and your dwellings, that you might be questioned.”
لَا تَرْكُضُوا وَارْجِعُٓوا اِلٰى مَٓا اُتْرِفْتُمْ ف۪يهِ وَمَسَاكِنِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْـَٔلُونَ
La tarkudoo warjiAAooila ma otriftum feehi wamasakinikumlaAAallakum tus-aloon
They said: “Woe is us! We were wrongdoers.”
قَالُوا يَا وَيْلَنَٓا اِنَّا كُنَّا ظَالِم۪ينَ
Qaloo ya waylana innakunna thalimeen
And that, their call, ceased not until We made them a harvest, extinguished.
فَمَا زَالَتْ تِلْكَ دَعْوٰيهُمْ حَتّٰى جَعَلْنَاهُمْ حَص۪يداً خَامِد۪ينَ
Fama zalat tilka daAAwahumhatta jaAAalnahum haseedan khamideen
And We created not the heaven and the earth and what is between them in play.
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَٓاءَ وَالْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَاعِب۪ينَ
Wama khalaqna assamaawal-arda wama baynahuma laAAibeen
Had We wished to take a diversion, We would have taken it from Ourselves — if We are the doers.
لَوْ اَرَدْنَٓا اَنْ نَتَّخِذَ لَهْواً لَاتَّخَذْنَاهُ مِنْ لَدُنَّاۗ اِنْ كُنَّا فَاعِل۪ينَ
Law aradna an nattakhithalahwan lattakhathnahu min ladunna inkunna faAAileen
But We hurl the truth against vanity and it triumphs over it, and then it passes away. And woe to you for what you describe!
بَلْ نَقْذِفُ بِالْحَقِّ عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ فَيَدْمَغُهُ فَاِذَا هُوَ زَاهِقٌۜ وَلَكُمُ الْوَيْلُ مِمَّا تَصِفُونَ
Bal naqthifu bilhaqqiAAala albatili fayadmaghuhu fa-itha huwa zahiqunwalakumu alwaylu mimma tasifoon
And to Him belongs whoso is in the heavens and the earth; and those in His presence are not too proud for His service, nor do they grow weary,
وَلَهُ مَنْ فِي السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضِۜ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهُ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِه۪ وَلَا يَسْتَحْسِرُونَۚ
Walahu man fee assamawatiwal-ardi waman AAindahu la yastakbiroonaAAan AAibadatihi wala yastahsiroon
They give glory night and day, and they flag not.
يُسَبِّحُونَ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لَا يَفْتُرُونَ
Yusabbihoona allayla wannaharala yafturoon
If they have taken gods from the earth who resurrect:
اَمِ اتَّخَذُٓوا اٰلِهَةً مِنَ الْاَرْضِ هُمْ يُنْشِرُونَ
Ami ittakhathoo alihatan minaal-ardi hum yunshiroon
Were there in them gods save God, they would have been corrupted; and glory be to God, the Lord of the Throne, above what they describe!
لَوْ كَانَ ف۪يهِمَٓا اٰلِهَةٌ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ لَفَسَدَتَاۚ فَسُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
Law kana feehima alihatunilla Allahu lafasadata fasubhana Allahirabbi alAAarshi AAamma yasifoon
He is not questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned.
لَا يُسْـَٔلُ عَمَّا يَفْعَلُ وَهُمْ يُسْـَٔلُونَ
La yus-alu AAamma yafAAaluwahum yus-aloon
If they have taken gods besides Him, say thou: “Bring your evidence. This is the remembrance of him with me, and the remembrance of him before me.” But most of them know not the truth, so they are turning away.
اَمِ اتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِه۪ٓ اٰلِهَةًۜ قُلْ هَاتُوا بُرْهَانَكُمْۚ هٰذَا ذِكْرُ مَنْ مَعِيَ وَذِكْرُ مَنْ قَبْل۪يۜ بَلْ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَۙ الْحَقَّ فَهُمْ مُعْرِضُونَ
Ami ittakhathoo min doonihi alihatanqul hatoo burhanakum hatha thikru manmaAAiya wathikru man qablee bal aktharuhum layaAAlamoona alhaqqa fahum muAAridoon
And We sent not before thee any messenger save We revealed to him that: “There is no god save I; so serve Me.”
وَمَٓا اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَسُولٍ اِلَّا نُوح۪ٓي اِلَيْهِ اَنَّهُ لَٓا اِلٰهَ اِلَّٓا اَنَا۬ فَاعْبُدُونِ
Wama arsalna min qablika minrasoolin illa noohee ilayhi annahu la ilahailla ana faAAbudoon
And they say: “The Almighty has taken a son.” Glory be to Him! But honoured servants
وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَلَداً سُبْحَانَهُۜ بَلْ عِبَادٌ مُكْرَمُونَۙ
Waqaloo ittakhatha arrahmanuwaladan subhanahu bal AAibadun mukramoon
Precede Him not in word, but they act by His command.
لَا يَسْبِقُونَهُ بِالْقَوْلِ وَهُمْ بِاَمْرِه۪ يَعْمَلُونَ
La yasbiqoonahu bilqawliwahum bi-amrihi yaAAmaloon
He knows what is before them, and what following them, and they intercede not save for him with whom He is pleased; and they are from fear of Him in dread.
يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْد۪يهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا يَشْفَعُونَۙ اِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضٰى وَهُمْ مِنْ خَشْيَتِه۪ مُشْفِقُونَ
YaAAlamu ma bayna aydeehim wamakhalfahum wala yashfaAAoona illa limani irtadawahum min khashyatihi mushfiqoon
And whoso among them says: “I am a god besides Him!” — then that: We reward him with Gehenna; thus reward We the wrongdoers.
وَمَنْ يَقُلْ مِنْهُمْ اِنّ۪ٓي اِلٰهٌ مِنْ دُونِه۪ فَذٰلِكَ نَجْز۪يهِ جَهَنَّمَۜ كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِي الظَّالِم۪ينَ۟
Waman yaqul minhum innee ilahun mindoonihi fathalika najzeehi jahannama kathalikanajzee aththalimeen
Have not those who ignore warning considered that the heavens and the earth were stitched together, then We ripped them apart and made of water every living thing? Will they then not believe!
اَوَلَمْ يَرَ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُٓوا اَنَّ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضَ كَانَتَا رَتْقاً فَفَتَقْنَاهُمَاۜ وَجَعَلْنَا مِنَ الْمَٓاءِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَيٍّۜ اَفَلَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
Awa lam yara allatheenakafaroo anna assamawati wal-ardakanata ratqan fafataqnahuma wajaAAalnamina alma-i kulla shay-in hayyin afalayu/minoon
And We made in the earth firm mountains lest it sway with them; and We made therein mountain passes as ways, that they might be guided;
وَجَعَلْنَا فِي الْاَرْضِ رَوَاسِيَ اَنْ تَم۪يدَ بِهِمْ وَجَعَلْنَا ف۪يهَا فِجَاجاً سُبُلاً لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ
WajaAAalna fee al-ardi rawasiyaan tameeda bihim wajaAAalna feeha fijajansubulan laAAallahum yahtadoon
And We made the sky a roof protected; but they, from its proofs, are turning away.
وَجَعَلْنَا السَّمَٓاءَ سَقْفاً مَحْفُوظاًۚ وَهُمْ عَنْ اٰيَاتِهَا مُعْرِضُونَ
WajaAAalna assamaasaqfan mahfoothan wahum AAan ayatihamuAAridoon
And He it is that created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each in a circuit swimming.
وَهُوَ الَّذ۪ي خَلَقَ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَۜ كُلٌّ ف۪ي فَلَكٍ يَسْبَحُونَ
Wahuwa allathee khalaqa allayla wannaharawashshamsa walqamara kullun fee falakin yasbahoon
And We appointed not eternity for a mortal before thee; if then thou wilt die, then are they eternal?
وَمَا جَعَلْنَا لِبَشَرٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ الْخُلْدَۜ اَفَا۬ئِنْ مِتَّ فَهُمُ الْخَالِدُونَ
Wama jaAAalna libasharin minqablika alkhulda afa-in mitta fahumu alkhalidoon
Every soul will taste death; and We will try you with evil and good as a means of denial; and to Us will you be returned.
كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَٓائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِۜ وَنَبْلُوكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةًۜ وَاِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُونَ
Kullu nafsin tha-iqatu almawtiwanablookum bishsharri walkhayri fitnatanwa-ilayna turjaAAoon
And when those who ignore warning see thee, they take thee only in mockery: “Is this he who mentions your gods!” And they — of the remembrance of the Almighty — they are deniers.
وَاِذَا رَاٰكَ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُٓوا اِنْ يَتَّخِذُونَكَ اِلَّا هُزُواًۜ اَهٰذَا الَّذ۪ي يَذْكُرُ اٰلِهَتَكُمْۚ وَهُمْ بِذِكْرِ الرَّحْمٰنِ هُمْ كَافِرُونَ
Wa-itha raaka allatheenakafaroo in yattakhithoonaka illa huzuwan ahathaallathee yathkuru alihatakum wahum bithikriarrahmani hum kafiroon
Man was created of haste. I will show you My proofs, so ask Me not to make haste.
خُلِقَ الْاِنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍۜ سَاُر۪يكُمْ اٰيَات۪ي فَلَا تَسْتَعْجِلُونِ
Khuliqa al-insanu min AAajalinsaoreekum ayatee fala tastaAAjiloon
And they say: “When is this promise, if you be truthful?”
وَيَقُولُونَ مَتٰى هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِق۪ينَ
Wayaqooloona mata hathaalwaAAdu in kuntum sadiqeen
If those who ignore warning but knew the time when they will not restrain the Fire from their faces, nor from their backs, nor will they be helped!
لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا ح۪ينَ لَا يَكُفُّونَ عَنْ وُجُوهِهِمُ النَّارَ وَلَا عَنْ ظُهُورِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ
Law yaAAlamu allatheena kafaroo heenala yakuffoona AAan wujoohihimu annara walaAAan thuhoorihim wala hum yunsaroon
But it will come upon them unexpectedly, and render them speechless, and they will be unable to repel it, nor will they be granted respite.
بَلْ تَأْت۪يهِمْ بَغْتَةً فَتَبْهَتُهُمْ فَلَا يَسْتَط۪يعُونَ رَدَّهَا وَلَا هُمْ يُنْظَرُونَ
Bal ta/teehim baghtatan fatabhatuhum falayastateeAAoona raddaha wala hum yuntharoon
And messengers were mocked before thee; then there surrounded those who derided them that whereat they mocked.
وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِالَّذ۪ينَ سَخِرُوا مِنْهُمْ مَا كَانُوا بِه۪ يَسْتَهْزِؤُ۫نَ۟
Walaqadi istuhzi-a birusulin min qablika fahaqabillatheena sakhiroo minhum ma kanoobihi yastahzi-oon
Say thou: “Who can protect you by night and day from the Almighty?” But they, from the remembrance of their Lord, are turning away.
قُلْ مَنْ يَكْلَؤُ۬كُمْ بِالَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ مِنَ الرَّحْمٰنِۜ بَلْ هُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِمْ مُعْرِضُونَ
Qul man yaklaokum billayli wannaharimina arrahmani bal hum AAan thikrirabbihim muAAridoon
If they have gods to defend them besides Us: they are unable to help themselves, nor are they protected from Us.
اَمْ لَهُمْ اٰلِهَةٌ تَمْنَعُهُمْ مِنْ دُونِنَاۜ لَا يَسْتَط۪يعُونَ نَصْرَ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ مِنَّا يُصْحَبُونَ
Am lahum alihatun tamnaAAuhum mindoonina la yastateeAAoona nasraanfusihim wala hum minna yushaboon
But We gave these and their fathers enjoyment until life became long for them. Have they then not considered that We come to the earth, diminishing it from its extremities? Is it then they who will be the victors?
بَلْ مَتَّعْنَا هٰٓؤُ۬لَٓاءِ وَاٰبَٓاءَهُمْ حَتّٰى طَالَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعُمُرُۜ اَفَلَا يَرَوْنَ اَنَّا نَأْتِي الْاَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ اَطْرَافِهَاۜ اَفَهُمُ الْغَالِبُونَ
Bal mattaAAna haola-iwaabaahum hatta talaAAalayhimu alAAumuru afala yarawna anna na/teeal-arda nanqusuha min atrafihaafahumu alghaliboon
Say thou: “I but warn you by revelation.” But the deaf hear not the call when they are warned.
قُلْ اِنَّـمَٓا اُنْذِرُكُمْ بِالْوَحْيِۘ وَلَا يَسْمَعُ الصُّمُّ الدُّعَٓاءَ اِذَا مَا يُنْذَرُونَ
Qul innama onthirukum bilwahyiwala yasmaAAu assummu adduAAaaitha ma yuntharoon
And if there touch them a hint of the punishment of thy Lord, they will say: “Woe is us! We were wrongdoers.”
وَلَئِنْ مَسَّتْهُمْ نَفْحَةٌ مِنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّكَ لَيَقُولُنَّ يَا وَيْلَنَٓا اِنَّا كُنَّا ظَالِم۪ينَ
Wala-in massat-hum nafhatun min AAathabirabbika layaqoolunna ya waylana inna kunnathalimeen
And We will set up the balances of equity for the Day of Resurrection, so no soul will be wronged in anything; and though it be the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it. And sufficient are We as account-takers.
وَنَضَعُ الْمَوَاز۪ينَ الْقِسْطَ لِيَوْمِ الْقِيٰمَةِ فَلَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْـٔاًۜ وَاِنْ كَانَ مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ اَتَيْنَا بِهَاۜ وَكَفٰى بِنَا حَاسِب۪ينَ
WanadaAAu almawazeena alqistaliyawmi alqiyamati fala tuthlamunafsun shay-an wa-in kana mithqala habbatinmin khardalin atayna biha wakafa binahasibeen
And We gave Moses and Aaron the Division, and an illumination, and a remembrance for those of prudent fear:
وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوسٰى وَهٰرُونَ الْفُرْقَانَ وَضِيَٓاءً وَذِكْراً لِلْمُتَّق۪ينَۙ
Walaqad atayna moosawaharoona alfurqana wadiyaan wathikranlilmuttaqeen
Those who fear their Lord unseen, and are of the Hour in dread.
اَلَّذ۪ينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَيْبِ وَهُمْ مِنَ السَّاعَةِ مُشْفِقُونَ
Allatheena yakhshawna rabbahum bilghaybiwahum mina assaAAati mushfiqoon
And this is a blessed remembrance We sent down. Will you then not recognise it?
وَهٰذَا ذِكْرٌ مُبَارَكٌ اَنْزَلْنَاهُۜ اَفَاَنْتُمْ لَهُ مُنْكِرُونَ۟
Wahatha thikrun mubarakunanzalnahu afaantum lahu munkiroon
And We gave Abraham his sound judgment before; and We knew him
وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَٓا اِبْرٰه۪يمَ رُشْدَهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَكُنَّا بِه۪ عَالِم۪ينَۚ
Walaqad atayna ibraheemarushdahu min qablu wakunna bihi AAalimeen
When he said to his father and his people: “What are these statues to which you are devoted?”
اِذْ قَالَ لِاَب۪يهِ وَقَوْمِه۪ مَا هٰذِهِ التَّمَاث۪يلُ الَّت۪ٓي اَنْتُمْ لَهَا عَاكِفُونَ
Ith qala li-abeehi waqawmihi mahathihi attamatheelu allatee antum lahaAAakifoon
They said: “We found our fathers serving them.”
قَالُوا وَجَدْنَٓا اٰبَٓاءَنَا لَهَا عَابِد۪ينَ
Qaloo wajadna abaanalaha AAabideen
He said: “You and your fathers have been in manifest error.”
قَالَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُمْ اَنْتُمْ وَاٰبَٓاؤُ۬كُمْ ف۪ي ضَلَالٍ مُب۪ينٍ
Qala laqad kuntum antum waabaokumfee dalalin mubeen
They said: “Hast thou come to us with the truth, or art thou of those who play?”
قَالُٓوا اَجِئْتَنَا بِالْحَقِّ اَمْ اَنْتَ مِنَ اللَّاعِب۪ينَ
Qaloo aji/tana bilhaqqiam anta mina allaAAibeen
He said: “But your Lord is the Lord of the Heavens and the Earth who created them, and I am of those who bear witness to that.
قَالَ بَلْ رَبُّكُمْ رَبُّ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضِ الَّذ۪ي فَطَرَهُنَّۘ وَاَنَا۬ عَلٰى ذٰلِكُمْ مِنَ الشَّاهِد۪ينَ
Qala bal rabbukum rabbu assamawatiwal-ardi allathee fatarahunna waanaAAala thalikum mina ashshahideen
“And, by God, I will plan against your idols, after you have turned and gone!”

Watallahi laakeedanna asnamakumbaAAda an tuwalloo mudbireen
And he made them into pieces save a great one they had, that they might return to it.
فَجَعَلَهُمْ جُذَاذاً اِلَّا كَب۪يراً لَهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ اِلَيْهِ يَرْجِعُونَ
FajaAAalahum juthathan illakabeeran lahum laAAallahum ilayhi yarjiAAoon
They said: “Who has done this to our gods, he is surely of the wrongdoers!”
قَالُوا مَنْ فَعَلَ هٰذَا بِاٰلِهَتِنَٓا اِنَّهُ لَمِنَ الظَّالِم۪ينَ
Qaloo man faAAala hatha bi-alihatinainnahu lamina aththalimeen
They said: “We heard a youth make mention of them; he is called Abraham.”

They said: “Then bring him before the eyes of the people, that they might bear witness.”

Qaloo fa/too bihi AAalaaAAyuni annasi laAAallahum yashhadoon
They said: “Didst thou this to our gods, O Abraham?”

Qaloo aanta faAAalta hatha bi-alihatinaya ibraheem
He said: “But this their great one did it; so ask them, if they speak.”
قَالَ بَلْ فَعَلَهُۗ كَب۪يرُهُمْ هٰذَا فَسْـَٔلُوهُمْ اِنْ كَانُوا يَنْطِقُونَ
Qala bal faAAalahu kabeeruhum hathafas-aloohum in kanoo yantiqoon
And they returned to themselves and said: “It is you who are the wrongdoers.”

Then they went back on themselves: “Thou knewest that these speak not.”
ثُمَّ نُكِسُوا عَلٰى رُؤُ۫سِهِمْۚ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا هٰٓؤُ۬لَٓاءِ يَنْطِقُونَ
Thumma nukisoo AAala ruoosihim laqadAAalimta ma haola-i yantiqoon
He said: “Then serve you, besides God, what can neither benefit you at all nor harm you?
قَالَ اَفَتَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَنْفَعُكُمْ شَيْـٔاً وَلَا يَضُرُّكُمْۜ
Qala afataAAbudoona min dooni Allahima la yanfaAAukum shay-an wala yadurrukum
“Fie upon you and all that you serve besides God! Will you then not use reason!”
اُفٍّ لَكُمْ وَلِمَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِۜ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
Offin lakum walima taAAbudoona mindooni Allahi afala taAAqiloon
They said: “Burn him, and support your gods, if you are doers!”
قَالُوا حَرِّقُوهُ وَانْصُرُٓوا اٰلِهَتَكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ فَاعِل۪ينَ
Qaloo harriqoohu wansurooalihatakum in kuntum faAAileen
We said: “O fire: be thou coolness and safety upon Abraham.”
قُلْنَا يَا نَارُ كُون۪ي بَرْداً وَسَلَاماً عَلٰٓى اِبْرٰه۪يمَۙ
Qulna ya naru kooneebardan wasalaman AAala ibraheem
And they desired a plan for him, but We made them the greatest losers,
وَاَرَادُوا بِه۪ كَيْداً فَجَعَلْنَاهُمُ الْاَخْسَر۪ينَۚ
Waaradoo bihi kaydan fajaAAalnahumual-akhsareen
And We delivered him and Lot to the land We had blessed for all mankind.
وَنَجَّيْنَاهُ وَلُوطاً اِلَى الْاَرْضِ الَّت۪ي بَارَكْنَا ف۪يهَا لِلْعَالَم۪ينَ
Wanajjaynahu walootan ilaal-ardi allatee barakna feeha lilAAalameen
And We gave him Isaac, and Jacob in addition; and each We made righteous,
وَوَهَبْنَا لَـهُٓ اِسْحٰقَۜ وَيَعْقُوبَ نَافِلَةًۜ وَكُلاًّ جَعَلْنَا صَالِح۪ينَ
Wawahabna lahu ishaqawayaAAqooba nafilatan wakullan jaAAalna saliheen
And We made them leaders, guiding by Our command, and revealed to them the doing of good deeds, and the upholding of duty, and the rendering of the purity; and Us they served.
وَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ اَئِمَّةً يَهْدُونَ بِاَمْرِنَا وَاَوْحَيْنَٓا اِلَيْهِمْ فِعْلَ الْخَيْرَاتِ وَاِقَامَ الصَّلٰوةِ وَا۪يتَٓاءَ الزَّكٰوةِۚ وَكَانُوا لَنَا عَابِد۪ينَۙ
WajaAAalnahum a-immatan yahdoonabi-amrina waawhayna ilayhim fiAAla alkhayratiwa-iqama assalati wa-eetaa azzakatiwakanoo lana AAabideen
And Lot: We gave him judgment and knowledge; and We delivered him from the city that was doing bad deeds; they were an evil people, perfidious;
وَلُوطاً اٰتَيْنَاهُ حُكْماً وَعِلْماً وَنَجَّيْنَاهُ مِنَ الْقَرْيَةِ الَّت۪ي كَانَتْ تَعْمَلُ الْخَبَٓائِثَۜ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فَاسِق۪ينَۙ
Walootan ataynahu hukmanwaAAilman wanajjaynahu mina alqaryati allatee kanattaAAmalu alkhaba-itha innahum kanoo qawma saw-in fasiqeen
And We made him enter into Our mercy; he was among the righteous.
وَاَدْخَلْنَاهُ ف۪ي رَحْمَتِنَاۜ اِنَّهُ مِنَ الصَّالِح۪ينَ۟
Waadkhalnahu fee rahmatinainnahu mina assaliheen
And Noah: when he called before, then We responded to him and delivered him and his household from the great distress.
وَنُوحاً اِذْ نَادٰى مِنْ قَبْلُ فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُ فَنَجَّيْنَاهُ وَاَهْلَهُ مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظ۪يمِۚ
Wanoohan ith nadamin qablu fastajabna lahu fanajjaynahuwaahlahu mina alkarbi alAAatheem
And We helped him against the people who denied Our proofs; they were a people of evil, so We drowned them all together.
وَنَصَرْنَاهُ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الَّذ۪ينَ كَذَّبُوا بِاٰيَاتِنَاۜ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فَاَغْرَقْنَاهُمْ اَجْمَع۪ينَ
Wanasarnahu mina alqawmi allatheenakaththaboo bi-ayatina innahum kanooqawma saw-in faaghraqnahum ajmaAAeen
And David and Solomon: when they passed judgment concerning the tilth, when the sheep of the people had strayed and pastured therein; and We were witnesses to their judgment.
وَدَاوُ۫دَ وَسُلَيْمٰنَ اِذْ يَحْكُمَانِ فِي الْحَرْثِ اِذْ نَفَشَتْ ف۪يهِ غَنَمُ الْقَوْمِۚ وَكُنَّا لِحُكْمِهِمْ شَاهِد۪ينَۙ
Wadawooda wasulaymana ithyahkumani fee alharthi ith nafashatfeehi ghanamu alqawmi wakunna lihukmihim shahideen
And We gave understanding of it to Solomon; and to each We gave judgment and knowledge. And We made subject with David the mountains giving glory, and the birds. And We are the doers.
فَفَهَّمْنَاهَا سُلَيْمٰنَۚ وَكُلاًّ اٰتَيْنَا حُكْماً وَعِلْماًۘ وَسَخَّرْنَا مَعَ دَاوُ۫دَ الْجِبَالَ يُسَبِّحْنَ وَالطَّيْرَۜ وَكُنَّا فَاعِل۪ينَ
Fafahhamnaha sulaymanawakullan atayna hukman waAAilman wasakhkharnamaAAa dawooda aljibala yusabbihna wattayrawakunna faAAileen
And We taught him the making of garments for you, to protect you from your might; are you then grateful?
وَعَلَّمْنَاهُ صَنْعَةَ لَبُوسٍ لَكُمْ لِتُحْصِنَكُمْ مِنْ بَأْسِكُمْۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ شَاكِرُونَ
WaAAallamnahu sanAAatalaboosin lakum lituhsinakum min ba/sikum fahal antum shakiroon
And to Solomon: the wind raging, running by his command to the land that We had blessed; and We knew everything.
وَلِسُلَيْمٰنَ الرّ۪يحَ عَاصِفَةً تَجْر۪ي بِاَمْرِه۪ٓ اِلَى الْاَرْضِ الَّت۪ي بَارَكْنَا ف۪يهَاۜ وَكُنَّا بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَالِم۪ينَ
Walisulaymana arreehaAAasifatan tajree bi-amrihi ila al-ardiallatee barakna feeha wakunna bikullishay-in AAalimeen
And among the satans were those diving for him, and doing work besides that; and We were over them a guardian.
وَمِنَ الشَّيَاط۪ينِ مَنْ يَغُوصُونَ لَهُ وَيَعْمَلُونَ عَمَلاً دُونَ ذٰلِكَۚ وَكُنَّا لَهُمْ حَافِظ۪ينَۙ
Wamina ashshayateeni manyaghoosoona lahu wayaAAmaloona AAamalan doona thalikawakunna lahum hafitheen
And Job: when he called to his Lord: “Adversity has touched me, and Thou art the most merciful of those who show mercy,”
وَاَيُّوبَ اِذْ نَادٰى رَبَّهُٓ اَنّ۪ي مَسَّنِيَ الضُّرُّ وَاَنْتَ اَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِم۪ينَۚ
Waayyooba ith nadarabbahu annee massaniya addurru waanta arhamuarrahimeen
Then We answered him, and removed what was upon him of adversity. And We gave him his household and their like with them as a mercy from Us and a reminder to those who serve.
فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُ فَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِه۪ مِنْ ضُرٍّ وَاٰتَيْنَاهُ اَهْلَهُ وَمِثْلَهُمْ مَعَهُمْ رَحْمَةً مِنْ عِنْدِنَا وَذِكْرٰى لِلْعَابِد۪ينَ
Fastajabna lahu fakashafnama bihi min durrin waataynahu ahlahuwamithlahum maAAahum rahmatan min AAindina wathikralilAAabideen
And Ishmael and Idrīs and Dhūl-Kifl: each was among the patient,
وَاِسْمٰع۪يلَ وَاِدْر۪يسَ وَذَا الْكِفْلِۜ كُلٌّ مِنَ الصَّابِر۪ينَۚ
Wa-ismaAAeela wa-idreesa wathaalkifli kullun mina assabireen
And We made them enter into Our mercy; they were among the righteous.
وَاَدْخَلْنَاهُمْ ف۪ي رَحْمَتِنَاۜ اِنَّهُمْ مِنَ الصَّالِح۪ينَ
Waadkhalnahum fee rahmatinainnahum mina assaliheen
And Dhūl-Nūn: when he left in wrath, and thought that We would have no power over him; then he called in the darkness: “There is no god save Thou. Glory be to Thee! I have been among the wrongdoers!”
وَذَا النُّونِ اِذْ ذَهَبَ مُغَاضِباً فَظَنَّ اَنْ لَنْ نَقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ فَنَادٰى فِي الظُّلُمَاتِ اَنْ لَٓا اِلٰهَ اِلَّٓا اَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَۗ اِنّ۪ي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِم۪ينَۚ
Watha annooni ith thahabamughadiban fathanna an lan naqdira AAalayhifanada fee aththulumatian la ilaha illa anta subhanaka inneekuntu mina aththalimeen
So We responded to him, and delivered him from distress. And thus do We deliver the believers.
فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُۙ وَنَجَّيْنَاهُ مِنَ الْغَمِّۜ وَكَذٰلِكَ نُنْجِي الْمُؤْمِن۪ينَ
Fastajabna lahu wanajjaynahumina alghammi wakathalika nunjee almu/mineen
And Zachariah: when he called to his Lord: “My Lord: leave Thou me not solitary; and Thou art the best of inheritors,”
وَزَكَرِيَّٓا اِذْ نَادٰى رَبَّهُ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْن۪ي فَرْداً وَاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوَارِث۪ينَۚ
Wazakariyya ith nadarabbahu rabbi la tatharnee fardan waanta khayru alwaritheen
Then We answered him, and gave him John, and made right his wife for him. They competed in good deeds, and called to Us in hope and fear; and they were humble towards Us.
فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُۘ وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُ يَحْيٰى وَاَصْلَحْنَا لَهُ زَوْجَهُۜ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يُسَارِعُونَ فِي الْخَيْرَاتِ وَيَدْعُونَنَا رَغَباً وَرَهَباًۜ وَكَانُوا لَنَا خَاشِع۪ينَ
Fastajabna lahu wawahabnalahu yahya waaslahna lahuzawjahu innahum kanoo yusariAAoona fee alkhayratiwayadAAoonana raghaban warahaban wakanoo lanakhashiAAeen
And she who guarded her chastity: We breathed into her of Our Spirit, and made her and her son a proof for all mankind.
وَالَّت۪ٓي اَحْصَنَتْ فَرْجَهَا فَنَفَخْنَا ف۪يهَا مِنْ رُوحِنَا وَجَعَلْنَاهَا وَابْنَهَٓا اٰيَةً لِلْعَالَم۪ينَ
Wallatee ahsanat farjahafanafakhna feeha min roohinawajaAAalnaha wabnaha ayatanlilAAalameen
This, your community, is one community, and I am your Lord; so serve Me.
اِنَّ هٰذِه۪ٓ اُمَّتُكُمْ اُمَّةً وَاحِدَةًۘ وَاَنَا۬ رَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُونِ
Inna hathihi ommatukum ommatan wahidatanwaana rabbukum faoAAbudoon
But they divided their affair between them; all are returning to Us.
وَتَقَطَّعُٓوا اَمْرَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْۜ كُلٌّ اِلَيْنَا رَاجِعُونَ۟
WataqattaAAoo amrahum baynahum kullunilayna rajiAAoon
And whoso works any righteous deeds, and is a believer: there is no rejection of his effort, and We are writers for him.
فَمَنْ يَعْمَلْ مِنَ الصَّالِحَاتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَا كُفْرَانَ لِسَعْيِه۪ۚ وَاِنَّا لَهُ كَاتِبُونَ
Faman yaAAmal mina assalihatiwahuwa mu/minun fala kufrana lisaAAyihi wa-innalahu katiboon
And a prohibition is upon a city that We have destroyed, that they shall not return.
وَحَرَامٌ عَلٰى قَرْيَةٍ اَهْلَكْنَاهَٓا اَنَّهُمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ
Waharamun AAalaqaryatin ahlaknaha annahum la yarjiAAoon
When Ya’jūj and Ma’jūj have been loosed, and they from every elevation hasten forth
حَتّٰٓى اِذَا فُتِحَتْ يَأْجُوجُ وَمَأْجُوجُ وَهُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ حَدَبٍ يَنْسِلُونَ
Hatta itha futihatya/jooju wama/jooju wahum min kulli hadabin yansiloon
And drawn nigh has the true promise; and then the eyes of those who ignore warning will stare: “Woe is us! We had been in heedlessness of this. The truth is, we were wrongdoers.”
وَاقْتَرَبَ الْوَعْدُ الْحَقُّ فَاِذَا هِيَ شَاخِصَةٌ اَبْصَارُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُواۜ يَا وَيْلَنَا قَدْ كُنَّا ف۪ي غَفْلَةٍ مِنْ هٰذَا بَلْ كُنَّا ظَالِم۪ينَ
Waqtaraba alwaAAdu alhaqqufa-itha hiya shakhisatun absaru allatheenakafaroo ya waylana qad kunna fee ghaflatinmin hatha bal kunna thalimeen
You and what you serve, besides God, are the fuel of Gehenna! You will arrive at it.
اِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ حَصَبُ جَهَنَّمَۜ اَنْتُمْ لَهَا وَارِدُونَ
Innakum wama taAAbudoona min dooniAllahi hasabu jahannama antum laha waridoon
Had these been gods, they would not have arrived at it; but all are therein abiding eternally.
لَوْ كَانَ هٰٓؤُ۬لَٓاءِ اٰلِهَةً مَا وَرَدُوهَاۜ وَكُلٌّ ف۪يهَا خَالِدُونَ
Law kana haola-i alihatanma waradooha wakullun feeha khalidoon
They have therein roaring; and therein they hear not.
لَهُمْ ف۪يهَا زَف۪يرٌ وَهُمْ ف۪يهَا لَا يَسْمَعُونَ
Lahum feeha zafeerun wahum feehala yasmaAAoon
Those for whom the best from Us has preceded — those are from it far removed;
اِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ سَبَقَتْ لَهُمْ مِنَّا الْحُسْنٰٓىۙ اُو۬لٰٓئِكَ عَنْهَا مُبْعَدُونَۙ
Inna allatheena sabaqat lahum minnaalhusna ola-ika AAanha mubAAadoon
They hear not a whisper thereof; and they in what their souls desired abide eternally.
لَا يَسْمَعُونَ حَس۪يسَهَاۚ وَهُمْ ف۪ي مَا اشْتَهَتْ اَنْفُسُهُمْ خَالِدُونَۚ
La yasmaAAoona haseesahawahum fee ma ishtahat anfusuhum khalidoon
The greatest terror will not grieve them, and the angels will receive them: — “This is your day which you were promised” —
لَا يَحْزُنُهُمُ الْفَزَعُ الْاَكْبَرُ وَتَتَلَقّٰيهُمُ الْمَلٰٓئِكَةُۜ هٰذَا يَوْمُكُمُ الَّذ۪ي كُنْتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ
La yahzunuhumu alfazaAAual-akbaru watatalaqqahumu almala-ikatu hathayawmukumu allathee kuntum tooAAadoon
The day We fold up the heaven like the folding up of a scroll for the writs. As We began the first creation, We will repeat it — a promise binding upon Us. Truly, We are the doers.
يَوْمَ نَطْوِي السَّمَٓاءَ كَطَيِّ السِّجِلِّ لِلْكُتُبِۜ كَمَا بَدَأْنَٓا اَوَّلَ خَلْقٍ نُع۪يدُهُۜ وَعْداً عَلَيْنَاۜ اِنَّا كُنَّا فَاعِل۪ينَ
Yawma natwee assamaakatayyi assijlli lilkutubi kama bada/naawwala khalqin nuAAeeduhu waAAdan AAalayna innakunna faAAileen
And We decreed in the Psalms after the remembrance: “My righteous servants will inherit the earth.”
وَلَقَدْ كَتَبْنَا فِي الزَّبُورِ مِنْ بَعْدِ الذِّكْرِ اَنَّ الْاَرْضَ يَرِثُهَا عِبَادِيَ الصَّالِحُونَ
Walaqad katabna fee azzaboorimin baAAdi aththikri anna al-arda yarithuhaAAibadiya assalihoon
In this is a notification for people who serve.
اِنَّ ف۪ي هٰذَا لَبَلَاغاً لِقَوْمٍ عَابِد۪ينَۜ
Inna fee hatha labalaghanliqawmin AAabideen
And We sent thee only as a mercy for all mankind.
وَمَٓا اَرْسَلْنَاكَ اِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِلْعَالَم۪ينَ
Wama arsalnaka illa rahmatanlilAAalameen
Say thou: “It is revealed to me that your God is One God. Will you then be submitting?”
قُلْ اِنَّمَا يُوحٰٓى اِلَيَّ اَنَّـمَٓا اِلٰهُكُمْ اِلٰهٌ وَاحِدٌۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ
Qul innama yooha ilayya annamailahukum ilahun wahidun fahal antummuslimoon
And if they turn away, say thou: “I have proclaimed to you all alike; and I know not whether near or far is what you are promised.
فَاِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ اٰذَنْتُكُمْ عَلٰى سَوَٓاءٍۜ وَاِنْ اَدْر۪ٓي اَقَر۪يبٌ اَمْ بَع۪يدٌ مَا تُوعَدُونَ
Fa-in tawallaw faqul athantukum AAalasawa-in wa-in adree aqareebun am baAAeedun matooAAadoon
“He knows what is public of speech, and He knows what you conceal.
اِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْتُمُونَ
Innahu yaAAlamu aljahra mina alqawliwayaAAlamu ma taktumoon
“And I know not; it might be a means of denial for you and enjoyment for a time.”
وَاِنْ اَدْر۪ي لَعَلَّهُ فِتْنَةٌ لَكُمْ وَمَتَاعٌ اِلٰى ح۪ينٍ
Wa-in adree laAAallahu fitnatun lakum wamataAAunila heen
Say thou: “My Lord: judge Thou with justice. And our Lord is the Almighty, the one whose aid is sought against what you describe.”
قَالَ رَبِّ احْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّۜ وَرَبُّنَا الرَّحْمٰنُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلٰى مَا تَصِفُونَ
