In the name of God, the Almighty, the Merciful.
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّح۪يمِ
Bismi Allahi arrahmani arraheem
Successful are the believers:
قَدْ اَفْلَحَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَۙ
Qad aflaha almu/minoon
Those who in their duty are humble,
اَلَّذ۪ينَ هُمْ ف۪ي صَلَاتِهِمْ خَاشِعُونَۙ
Allatheena hum fee salatihimkhashiAAoon
And those who from vain speech turn away,
وَالَّذ۪ينَ هُمْ عَنِ اللَّغْوِ مُعْرِضُونَۙ
Wallatheena hum AAani allaghwimuAAridoon
And those who act upon the purity.
وَالَّذ۪ينَ هُمْ لِلزَّكٰوةِ فَاعِلُونَۙ
Wallatheena hum lizzakatifaAAiloon
And those who preserve their chastity
وَالَّذ۪ينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَافِظُونَۙ
Wallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoon
Save with their wives or what their right hands possess, then are they not blameworthy;
اِلَّا عَلٰٓى اَزْوَاجِهِمْ اَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ اَيْمَانُهُمْ فَاِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُوم۪ينَۚ
Illa AAala azwajihim awma malakat aymanuhum fa-innahum ghayru maloomeen
— But whoso seeks beyond that: it is they who are the transgressors —
فَمَنِ ابْتَغٰى وَرَٓاءَ ذٰلِكَ فَاُو۬لٰٓئِكَ هُمُ الْعَادُونَۚ
Famani ibtagha waraa thalikafaola-ika humu alAAadoon

Wallatheena hum li-amanatihimwaAAahdihim raAAoon
And those who preserve their duties:
وَالَّذ۪ينَ هُمْ عَلٰى صَلَوَاتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَۢ
Wallatheena hum AAala salawatihimyuhafithoon
It is they who are the heirs,
اُو۬لٰٓئِكَ هُمُ الْوَارِثُونَۙ
Ola-ika humu alwarithoon
Those who inherit Paradise; therein will they abide eternally.
اَلَّذ۪ينَ يَرِثُونَ الْفِرْدَوْسَۜ هُمْ ف۪يهَا خَالِدُونَ
Allatheena yarithoona alfirdawsa humfeeha khalidoon
And We created man from an extract of clay;
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنْ سُلَالَةٍ مِنْ ط۪ينٍۚ
Walaqad khalaqna al-insana minsulalatin min teen
Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a secure fixed lodging;
ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَاهُ نُطْفَةً ف۪ي قَرَارٍ مَك۪ينٍۖ
Thumma jaAAalnahu nutfatan feeqararin makeen
Then We created the sperm-drop a clinging thing, and created the clinging thing a fleshy lump, and created the fleshy lump bones, and clothed the bones with flesh; then We produced it as another creation — and blessed be God, the best of creators!
ثُمَّ خَلَقْنَا النُّطْفَةَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْعَلَقَةَ مُضْغَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْمُضْغَةَ عِظَاماً فَكَسَوْنَا الْعِظَامَ لَحْماًۗ ثُمَّ اَنْشَأْنَاهُ خَلْقاً اٰخَرَۜ فَتَبَارَكَ اللّٰهُ اَحْسَنُ الْخَالِق۪ينَۜ

Then after that will you die;
ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ لَمَيِّتُونَۜ
Thumma innakum baAAda thalikalamayyitoon
Then on the Day of Resurrection will you be raised.
ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ تُبْعَثُونَ
Thumma innakum yawma alqiyamatitubAAathoon
And We have created above you seven paths, and We are not heedless of the creation.
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعَ طَرَٓائِقَۗ وَمَا كُنَّا عَنِ الْخَلْقِ غَافِل۪ينَ
Walaqad khalaqna fawqakum sabAAa tara-iqawama kunna AAani alkhalqi ghafileen
And We sent down from the sky water in measure, and gave it lodging in the earth — and We are able to take it away —
وَاَنْزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَٓاءِ مَٓاءً بِقَدَرٍ فَاَسْكَنَّاهُ فِي الْاَرْضِۗ وَاِنَّا عَلٰى ذَهَابٍ بِه۪ لَقَادِرُونَۚ
Waanzalna mina assama-imaan biqadarin faaskannahu fee al-ardiwa-inna AAala thahabin bihi laqadiroon
And We produced for you therewith gardens of date-palms and grapevines — for you therein is much fruit, and thereof you eat —
فَاَنْشَأْنَا لَكُمْ بِه۪ جَنَّاتٍ مِنْ نَخ۪يلٍ وَاَعْنَابٍۢ لَكُمْ ف۪يهَا فَوَاكِهُ۬ كَث۪يرَةٌ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَۙ
Faansha/na lakum bihi jannatinmin nakheelin waaAAnabin lakum feeha fawakihukatheeratun waminha ta/kuloon
And a tree that comes forth from Mount Saynā’ yielding oil and a seasoning for the eaters.
وَشَجَرَةً تَخْرُجُ مِنْ طُورِ سَيْنَٓاءَ تَنْبُتُ بِالدُّهْنِ وَصِبْغٍ لِلْاٰكِل۪ينَ
Washajaratan takhruju min toori saynaatanbutu bidduhni wasibghin lilakileen
And for you in the cattle is a lesson: We give you drink of what is in their bellies, and for you therein are many benefits; and of them you eat,
وَاِنَّ لَكُمْ فِي الْاَنْعَامِ لَعِبْرَةًۜ نُسْق۪يكُمْ مِمَّا ف۪ي بُطُونِهَا وَلَكُمْ ف۪يهَا مَنَافِعُ كَث۪يرَةٌ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَۙ
Wa-inna lakum fee al-anAAamilaAAibratan nusqeekum mimma fee butoonihawalakum feeha manafiAAu katheeratun waminhata/kuloon
And upon them, and upon the ships, are you carried.
وَعَلَيْهَا وَعَلَى الْفُلْكِ تُحْمَلُونَ۟
WaAAalayha waAAala alfulki tuhmaloon
And We sent Noah to his people, and he said: “O my people: serve God; you have no god but He. Will you then not be in prudent fear!”
وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوحاً اِلٰى قَوْمِه۪ فَقَالَ يَا قَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِنْ اِلٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۜ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Walaqad arsalna noohan ilaqawmihi faqala ya qawmi oAAbudoo Allaha malakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoon
Then said the eminent ones who disbelieved among his people: “This is only a mortal like you, desiring to take precedence over you. And had God willed, He would have sent down angels. We heard not of this among our fathers of old.
فَقَالَ الْمَلَؤُا الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ قَوْمِه۪ مَا هٰذَٓا اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْۙ يُر۪يدُ اَنْ يَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْۜ وَلَوْ شَٓاءَ اللّٰهُ لَاَنْزَلَ مَلٰٓئِكَةًۚ مَا سَمِعْنَا بِهٰذَا ف۪ٓي اٰبَٓائِنَا الْاَوَّل۪ينَۚ

He said: “My Lord: help Thou me because they have denied me.”
قَالَ رَبِّ انْصُرْن۪ي بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ
Qala rabbi onsurnee bimakaththaboon
And We instructed him: “Make thou the ship under Our eyes and Our instruction; then when Our command comes and the oven boils over, load thou therein of each kind two, and thy household save him against whom the word has gone forth among them. And address thou Me not on behalf of those who do wrong; they will be drowned.
فَاَوْحَيْنَٓا اِلَيْهِ اَنِ اصْنَعِ الْفُلْكَ بِاَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا فَاِذَا جَٓاءَ اَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ التَّنُّورُۙ فَاسْلُكْ ف۪يهَا مِنْ كُلٍّ زَوْجَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ وَاَهْلَكَ اِلَّا مَنْ سَبَقَ عَلَيْهِ الْقَوْلُ مِنْهُمْۚ وَلَا تُخَاطِبْن۪ي فِي الَّذ۪ينَ ظَلَمُواۚ اِنَّهُمْ مُغْرَقُونَ

“And when thou art seated — thou and whoso is with thee — upon the ship, say thou: ‘Praise belongs to God who has delivered us from the wrongdoing people.’”
فَاِذَا اسْتَوَيْتَ اَنْتَ وَمَنْ مَعَكَ عَلَى الْفُلْكِ فَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذ۪ي نَجّٰينَا مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظَّالِم۪ينَ
Fa-itha istawayta anta waman maAAakaAAala alfulki faquli alhamdu lillahi allatheenajjana mina alqawmi aththalimeen
“And say thou: ‘My Lord: set Thou me down at a blessed landing-place; and Thou art the best of those who set down.’”
وَقُلْ رَبِّ اَنْزِلْن۪ي مُنْزَلاً مُبَارَكاً وَاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْمُنْزِل۪ينَ

In that are proofs; and We are testing.
اِنَّ ف۪ي ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيَاتٍ وَاِنْ كُنَّا لَمُبْتَل۪ينَ
Inna fee thalika laayatinwa-in kunna lamubtaleen
Then We produced, after them, another generation.
ثُمَّ اَنْشَأْنَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْناً اٰخَر۪ينَۚ
Thumma ansha/na min baAAdihim qarnan akhareen
And We sent among them a messenger from among them: “Serve God; you have no god but He. Will you then not be in prudent fear!”
فَاَرْسَلْنَا ف۪يهِمْ رَسُولاً مِنْهُمْ اَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِنْ اِلٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۜ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ۟

And said the eminent ones of his people, those who ignored warning and denied the meeting of the Hereafter and to whom We had given opulence in the life of this world: “This is only a mortal like you: he eats of that whereof you eat, and drinks of that you drink.
وَقَالَ الْمَلَأُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِلِقَٓاءِ الْاٰخِرَةِ وَاَتْرَفْنَاهُمْ فِي الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَاۙ مَا هٰذَٓا اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْۙ يَأْكُلُ مِمَّا تَأْكُلُونَ مِنْهُ وَيَشْرَبُ مِمَّا تَشْرَبُونَ

“Far-fetched! Far-fetched is what you are promised!

“There is only our life of this world: we die, and we live; and we will not be raised up.

He said: “My Lord: help Thou me because they have denied me.”

Said He: “In a little while will they become remorseful.”
قَالَ عَمَّا قَل۪يلٍ لَيُصْبِحُنَّ نَادِم۪ينَۚ

Then the Blast seized them with justice, and We made them as decaying herbage: — “Then away with the wrongdoing people!”
فَاَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ بِالْحَقِّ فَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ غُـثَٓاءًۚ فَبُعْداً لِلْقَوْمِ الظَّالِم۪ينَ

No community outstrips its term, nor will they defer.
مَا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ اُمَّةٍ اَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَأْخِرُونَۜ
Ma tasbiqu min ommatin ajalahawama yasta/khiroon
Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time its messenger came to a community, they denied him; and We caused some of them to follow others, and made them legends: — “Then away with a people who do not believe!”
ثُمَّ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا تَتْرَاۜ كُلَّمَا جَٓاءَ اُمَّةً رَسُولُهَا كَذَّبُوهُ فَاَتْبَعْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ بَعْضاً وَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ اَحَاد۪يثَۚ فَبُعْداً لِقَوْمٍ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Then sent We Moses and his brother Aaron with Our proofs and a clear authority

To Pharaoh and his eminent ones; but they had waxed proud, and they were a self-exalting people.

And they said: “Shall we believe two mortals like ourselves, and whose people serve us?”

Then they denied them, and were among those destroyed.
فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَكَانُوا مِنَ الْمُهْلَك۪ينَ
Fakaththaboohuma fakanoomina almuhlakeen
And We gave Moses the Writ, that they might be guided.
وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ
Walaqad atayna moosaalkitaba laAAallahum yahtadoon
And We made the son of Mary and his mother a proof, and We gave them shelter upon high ground: a fixed lodging and a running spring.
وَجَعَلْنَا ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَاُمَّهُٓ اٰيَةً وَاٰوَيْنَاهُمَٓا اِلٰى رَبْوَةٍ ذَاتِ قَرَارٍ وَمَع۪ينٍ۟

And this, your community, is one community, and I am your Lord; so be in prudent fear of Me.

But they divided their command among them into writings, each party exulting at what it has,

So leave thou them in their flood of ignorance for a time.

Think they that in the wealth and sons wherewith We supply them

We hasten for them good things? The truth is, they perceive not.

And those who ascribe not a partnership to their Lord,

And those who give what they give with their hearts in dread that they are returning to their Lord:

And We burden not any soul save to its capacity; and with Us is a writ which speaks the truth, and they will not be wronged.)
وَلَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْساً اِلَّا وُسْعَهَا وَلَدَيْنَا كِتَابٌ يَنْطِقُ بِالْحَقِّ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ

The truth is, their hearts are in a flood of ignorance about this. And they have works besides that which they are doing.

When We have seized their opulent ones with punishment, then will they cry out.

Have they then not considered the word with care? If there has come to them what came not to their fathers of old,
اَفَلَمْ يَدَّبَّرُوا الْقَوْلَ اَمْ جَٓاءَهُمْ مَا لَمْ يَأْتِ اٰبَٓاءَهُمُ الْاَوَّل۪ينَۘ

Or if they did not know their messenger, and so do not recognise him,
اَمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا رَسُولَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَهُ مُنْكِرُونَۘ
Am lam yaAArifoo rasoolahum fahum lahumunkiroon
Or if they say: “He is possessed,” — the truth is, he has brought them the truth, but most of them are averse to the truth.
اَمْ يَقُولُونَ بِه۪ جِنَّةٌۜ بَلْ جَٓاءَهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ وَاَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلْحَقِّ كَارِهُونَ

And had the truth followed their vain desires, the heavens and the earth and whoso is therein would have been corrupted; the truth is, We brought them their remembrance, and they from their remembrance are turning away.
وَلَوِ اتَّبَعَ الْحَقُّ اَهْوَٓاءَهُمْ لَفَسَدَتِ السَّمٰوَاتُ وَالْاَرْضُ وَمَنْ ف۪يهِنَّۜ بَلْ اَتَيْنَاهُمْ بِذِكْرِهِمْ فَهُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِهِمْ مُعْرِضُونَۜ

If thou askest of them payment: then is the reward of thy Lord better; and He is the best of providers.
اَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ خَرْجاً فَخَرَاجُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌۗ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ الرَّازِق۪ينَ

And thou invitest them to a straight path;
وَاِنَّكَ لَتَدْعُوهُمْ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَق۪يمٍ
Wa-innaka latadAAoohum ila siratinmustaqeem
And those who believe not in the Hereafter are deviating from the path.
وَاِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ عَنِ الصِّرَاطِ لَنَاكِبُونَ

And were We to have mercy on them, and to remove what is upon them of distress, they would persist in wandering blindly in their inordinacy.
وَلَوْ رَحِمْنَاهُمْ وَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِمْ مِنْ ضُرٍّ لَلَجُّوا ف۪ي طُغْيَانِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ
Walaw rahimnahum wakashafnama bihim min durrin lalajjoo fee tughyanihimyaAAmahoon
(And We seized them with the punishment, but they yielded not to their Lord, nor humbled themselves.
وَلَقَدْ اَخَذْنَاهُمْ بِالْعَذَابِ فَمَا اسْتَكَانُوا لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ
Walaqad akhathnahum bilAAathabifama istakanoo lirabbihim wama yatadarraAAoon
When We have opened against them a gate of severe punishment, then are they therein in despair.)
حَتّٰٓى اِذَا فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ بَاباً ذَا عَذَابٍ شَد۪يدٍ اِذَا هُمْ ف۪يهِ مُبْلِسُونَ۟
Hatta itha fatahnaAAalayhim baban tha AAathabin shadeedin ithahum feehi mublisoon
And He it is that produced for you hearing and sight and hearts; little are you grateful.
وَهُوَ الَّـذ۪ٓي اَنْشَاَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَالْاَبْصَارَ وَالْاَفْـِٔدَةَۜ قَل۪يلاً مَا تَشْكُرُونَ
Wahuwa allathee anshaa lakumu assamAAawal-absara wal-af-idata qaleelan matashkuroon
And He it is that created you in the earth; and to Him will you be gathered.
وَهُوَ الَّذ۪ي ذَرَاَكُمْ فِي الْاَرْضِ وَاِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ
Wahuwa allathee tharaakum feeal-ardi wa-ilayhi tuhsharoon
And He it is that gives life, and gives death; and His is the alternation of night and day. Will you then not use reason!
وَهُوَ الَّذ۪ي يُحْـي۪ وَيُم۪يتُ وَلَهُ اخْتِلَافُ الَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِۜ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
Wahuwa allathee yuhyeewayumeetu walahu ikhtilafu allayli wannahariafala taAAqiloon
The truth is, they say the like of what the former peoples said;
بَلْ قَالُوا مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ الْاَوَّلُونَ
Bal qaloo mithla ma qalaal-awwaloon
They say: “When we are dead and are dust and bones, will we be raised?
قَالُٓوا ءَاِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَاباً وَعِظَاماً ءَاِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
Qaloo a-itha mitnawakunna turaban waAAithamana-inna lamabAAoothoon
“We have been promised this, we and our fathers, before; these are only legends of the former peoples.”
لَقَدْ وُعِدْنَا نَحْنُ وَاٰبَٓاؤُ۬نَا هٰذَا مِنْ قَبْلُ اِنْ هٰذَٓا اِلَّٓا اَسَاط۪يرُ الْاَوَّل۪ينَ
Laqad wuAAidna nahnu waabaonahatha min qablu in hatha illa asateerual-awwaleen
Say thou: “To whom belong the earth and whoso is therein, if you know?”
قُلْ لِمَنِ الْاَرْضُ وَمَنْ ف۪يهَٓا اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
Qul limani al-ardu waman feehain kuntum taAAlamoon
They will say: “To God.” Say thou: “Will you then not take heed!”
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلّٰهِۜ قُلْ اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afalatathakkaroon
Say thou: “Who is Lord of the Seven Heavens and Lord of the Great Throne?”
قُلْ مَنْ رَبُّ السَّمٰوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَرَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظ۪يمِ

They will say: “God.” Say thou: “Will you then not be in prudent fear!”
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلّٰهِۜ قُلْ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afalatattaqoon
Say thou: “In whose hand is dominion of all things — and He grants protection, and against whom there is no protection, if you know?”
قُلْ مَنْ بِيَدِه۪ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَهُوَ يُج۪يرُ وَلَا يُجَارُ عَلَيْهِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
Qul man biyadihi malakootu kulli shay-inwahuwa yujeeru wala yujaru AAalayhi in kuntumtaAAlamoon
They will say: “In God’s.” Say thou: “How then are you taken by sorcery?”
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلّٰهِۜ قُلْ فَاَنّٰى تُسْحَرُونَ
Sayaqooloona lillahi qul faannatusharoon
The truth is, We brought them the truth, and they are liars.
بَلْ اَتَيْنَاهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ وَاِنَّهُمْ لَكَاذِبُونَ
Bal ataynahum bilhaqqiwa-innahum lakathiboon
God has not taken any son. And there is not with Him any god; then would each god have taken what he created, and some of them would have overcome others. Glory be to God above what they describe —
مَا اتَّخَذَ اللّٰهُ مِنْ وَلَدٍ وَمَا كَانَ مَعَهُ مِنْ اِلٰهٍ اِذاً لَذَهَبَ كُلُّ اِلٰهٍ بِمَا خَلَقَ وَلَعَلَا بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰى بَعْضٍۜ سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَۙ

The Knower of the Unseen and the Seen — and exalted above that to which they ascribe a partnership!

Say thou: “My Lord: if Thou show me what they are promised,
قُلْ رَبِّ اِمَّا تُرِيَنّ۪ي مَا يُوعَدُونَۙ
Qul rabbi imma turiyannee mayooAAadoon
“My Lord: then place Thou me not among the wrongdoing people.”
رَبِّ فَلَا تَجْعَلْن۪ي فِي الْقَوْمِ الظَّالِم۪ينَ
Rabbi fala tajAAalnee fee alqawmi aththalimeen
And We are able to show thee what We promise them.
وَاِنَّا عَلٰٓى اَنْ نُرِيَكَ مَا نَعِدُهُمْ لَقَادِرُونَ
Wa-inna AAala an nuriyaka manaAAiduhum laqadiroon
Repel thou the evil with what is better — We best know what they describe —
اِدْفَعْ بِالَّت۪ي هِيَ اَحْسَنُ السَّيِّئَةَۜ نَحْنُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَصِفُونَ
IdfaAA billatee hiya ahsanu assayyi-atanahnu aAAlamu bima yasifoon
And say thou: “My Lord: I seek refuge in Thee from the goading of the satans,
وَقُلْ رَبِّ اَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاط۪ينِۙ
Waqul rabbi aAAoothu bika min hamazatiashshayateen
“And I seek refuge in Thee my Lord lest they be present with me.”
وَاَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ اَنْ يَحْضُرُونِ
WaaAAoothu bika rabbi an yahduroon
When death has come to one of them, he says: “My Lord: send Thou me back,
حَتّٰٓى اِذَا جَٓاءَ اَحَدَهُمُ الْمَوْتُ قَالَ رَبِّ ارْجِعُونِۙ
Hatta itha jaa ahadahumualmawtu qala rabbi irjiAAoon
“That I might work righteousness in what I left behind.” No, indeed! It is but a word that he says; and behind them is a barrier until the day they are raised.
لَعَلّ۪ٓي اَعْمَلُ صَالِحاً ف۪يمَا تَرَكْتُ كَلَّاۜ اِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَٓائِلُهَاۜ وَمِنْ وَرَٓائِهِمْ بَرْزَخٌ اِلٰى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
LaAAallee aAAmalu salihanfeema taraktu kalla innaha kalimatun huwa qa-iluhawamin wara-ihim barzakhun ila yawmi yubAAathoon
And when the Trumpet is blown, then no ties of kinship are between them that day nor will they ask one of another.
فَاِذَا نُفِـخَ فِي الصُّورِ فَلَٓا اَنْسَابَ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَلَا يَتَسَٓاءَلُونَ

Then whose balances are heavy, it is they who are the successful.

Faman thaqulat mawazeenuhu faola-ikahumu almuflihoon
And whose balances are light, those are they who have lost their souls, in Gehenna abiding eternally,
وَمَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَاز۪ينُهُ فَاُو۬لٰٓئِكَ الَّذ۪ينَ خَسِرُٓوا اَنْفُسَهُمْ ف۪ي جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدُونَۚ
Waman khaffat mawazeenuhu faola-ikaallatheena khasiroo anfusahum fee jahannama khalidoon
The Fire scorching their faces, and they scowling therein:
تَلْفَحُ وُجُوهَهُمُ النَّارُ وَهُمْ ف۪يهَا كَالِحُونَ
Talfahu wujoohahumu annaruwahum feeha kalihoon
“Were not My proofs recited to you, and you denied them?”
اَلَمْ تَكُنْ اٰيَات۪ي تُتْلٰى عَلَيْكُمْ فَكُنْتُمْ بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ

They will say: “Our Lord: our wretchedness overcame us, and we were a people astray.
قَالُوا رَبَّـنَا غَلَبَتْ عَلَيْنَا شِقْوَتُنَا وَكُنَّا قَوْماً ضَٓالّ۪ينَ

“Our Lord: turn Thou us out therefrom; if we return, then are we wrongdoers.”

He will say: “Be despised therein; and speak not to Me.
قَالَ اخْسَؤُ۫ا ف۪يهَا وَلَا تُكَلِّمُونِ
Qala ikhsaoo feeha walatukallimoon
“A faction among My servants said: ‘Our Lord: we believe, then forgive Thou us, and have mercy on us; and Thou art the best of those who have mercy.’
اِنَّهُ كَانَ فَر۪يقٌ مِنْ عِبَاد۪ي يَقُولُونَ رَبَّـنَٓا اٰمَنَّا فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا وَاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّاحِم۪ينَۚ

“Then you took them in derision until they made you forget My remembrance, and you laughed at them.
فَاتَّخَذْتُمُوهُمْ سِخْرِياًّ حَتّٰٓى اَنْسَوْكُمْ ذِكْر۪ي وَكُنْتُمْ مِنْهُمْ تَضْحَكُونَ

“I have rewarded them this day for their patience; they are the attainers of success.”

He will say: “How long tarried you in the earth, by number of years?”
قَالَ كَمْ لَبِثْتُمْ فِي الْاَرْضِ عَدَدَ سِن۪ينَ
Qala kam labithtum fee al-ardiAAadada sineen
They will say: “We tarried a day, or part of a day; ask Thou those who keep count.”
قَالُوا لَبِثْنَا يَوْماً اَوْ بَعْضَ يَوْمٍ فَسْـَٔلِ الْعَٓادّ۪ينَ

He will say: “You tarried only a little; had you but known.

“Thought you that We only created you for amusement, and that to Us you would not be returned?”

Then exalted be God, the True King! There is no god save He: the Lord of the Noble Throne.
فَتَعَالَى اللّٰهُ الْمَلِكُ الْحَقُّۚ لَٓا اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۚ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَر۪يمِ
FataAAala Allahualmaliku alhaqqu la ilaha illa huwarabbu alAAarshi alkareem
And whoso calls, with God, to another god, whereof he has no evidence, then is his reckoning but with his Lord; the false claimers of guidance will not be successful.
وَمَنْ يَدْعُ مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهاً اٰخَرَۙ لَا بُرْهَانَ لَهُ بِه۪ۙ فَاِنَّمَا حِسَابُهُ عِنْدَ رَبِّه۪ۜ اِنَّهُ لَا يُفْلِحُ الْكَافِرُونَ

And say thou: “My Lord: forgive Thou, and have Thou mercy; and Thou art the best of those who have mercy.”
