سورة الرعد

13. Surah Ar-Ra'd
The Thunder

In the name of God, the Almighty, the Merciful.

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّح۪يمِ

Bismi Allahi arrahmani arraheem

alif lām mīm rā Those are the proofs of the Writ; and what has been sent down to thee from thy Lord is the truth, but most men do not believe.

الٓمٓرٰ ۠تِلْكَ اٰيَاتُ الْكِتَابِۜ وَالَّـذ۪ٓي اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَبِّكَ الْحَقُّ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Alif-lam-meem-ra tilka ayatualkitabi wallathee onzila ilayka minrabbika alhaqqu walakinna akthara annasila yu/minoon

God it is who raised up the heavens, without pillars you can see, then established Himself upon the Throne. And He made subject the sun and the moon, each running for a stated term. He directs the matter; He sets out and details the proofs, that you might be certain of the meeting with your Lord.

اَللّٰهُ الَّذ۪ي رَفَعَ السَّمٰوَاتِ بِغَيْرِ عَمَدٍ تَرَوْنَهَا ثُمَّ اسْتَوٰى عَلَى الْعَرْشِ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَۜ كُلٌّ يَجْر۪ي لِاَجَلٍ مُسَمًّىۜ يُدَبِّرُ الْاَمْرَ يُفَصِّلُ الْاٰيَاتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ بِلِقَٓاءِ رَبِّكُمْ تُوقِنُونَ

Allahu allathee rafaAAa assamawatibighayri AAamadin tarawnaha thumma istawa AAalaalAAarshi wasakhkhara ashshamsa walqamara kullunyajree li-ajalin musamman yudabbiru al-amra yufassilu al-ayatilaAAallakum biliqa-i rabbikum tooqinoon

And He it is that spread out the earth, and placed therein firm mountains and rivers; and of every fruit He made therein two kinds; He covers the night with the day; in that are proofs for people who reflect.

وَهُوَ الَّذ۪ي مَدَّ الْاَرْضَ وَجَعَلَ ف۪يهَا رَوَاسِيَ وَاَنْهَاراًۜ وَمِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرَاتِ جَعَلَ ف۪يهَا زَوْجَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ يُغْشِي الَّيْلَ النَّهَارَۜ اِنَّ ف۪ي ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيَاتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

Wahuwa allathee madda al-ardawajaAAala feeha rawasiya waanharan waminkulli aththamarati jaAAala feeha zawjayniithnayni yughshee allayla annahara inna fee thalikalaayatin liqawmin yatafakkaroon

And in the earth are tracts adjacent to one another; and gardens of grapevines, and crops, and date-palms with roots shared and independent — watered with one water; and some of them We make exceed in food others; in that are proofs for people who reason.

وَفِي الْاَرْضِ قِطَعٌ مُتَجَاوِرَاتٌ وَجَنَّاتٌ مِنْ اَعْنَابٍ وَزَرْعٌ وَنَخ۪يلٌ صِنْوَانٌ وَغَيْرُ صِنْوَانٍ يُسْقٰى بِمَٓاءٍ وَاحِدٍ۠ وَنُفَضِّلُ بَعْضَهَا عَلٰى بَعْضٍ فِي الْاُكُلِۜ اِنَّ ف۪ي ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيَاتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ

Wafee al-ardi qitaAAun mutajawiratunwajannatun min aAAnabin wazarAAun wanakheelun sinwanunwaghayru sinwanin yusqa bima-in wahidinwanufaddilu baAAdaha AAala baAAdinfee alokuli inna fee thalika laayatinliqawmin yaAAqiloon

And if thou marvel, then marvellous is their saying: “Will we — when we are dust — be in a new creation?” Those are they who have denied their Lord; and those will have yokes on their necks; and those are the companions of the Fire, therein they abide eternally.

وَاِنْ تَعْجَبْ فَعَجَبٌ قَوْلُهُمْ ءَاِذَا كُنَّا تُرَاباً ءَاِنَّا لَف۪ي خَلْقٍ جَد۪يدٍۜ اُو۬لٰٓئِكَ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا بِرَبِّهِمْۚ وَاُو۬لٰٓئِكَ الْاَغْلَالُ ف۪ٓي اَعْنَاقِهِمْۚ وَاُو۬لٰٓئِكَ اَصْحَابُ النَّارِۚ هُمْ ف۪يهَا خَالِدُونَ

Wa-in taAAjab faAAajabun qawluhum a-ithakunna turaban a-inna lafee khalqin jadeedinola-ika allatheena kafaroo birabbihim waola-ikaal-aghlalu fee aAAnaqihim waola-ika as-habuannari hum feeha khalidoon

And they ask thee to hasten the evil before the good when there have passed away before them exemplary punishments. And thy Lord is full of forgiveness towards men despite their injustice; but thy Lord is severe in retribution.

وَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَكَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ قَبْلَ الْحَسَنَةِ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمُ الْمَثُلَاتُۜ وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُو مَغْفِرَةٍ لِلنَّاسِ عَلٰى ظُلْمِهِمْۚ وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَشَد۪يدُ الْعِقَابِ

WayastaAAjiloonaka bissayyi-atiqabla alhasanati waqad khalat min qablihimu almathulatuwa-inna rabbaka lathoo maghfiratin linnasiAAala thulmihim wa-inna rabbaka lashadeedualAAiqab

And those who ignore warning say: “Oh, that a proof were but sent down upon him from his Lord!” Thou art but a warner; and for every people is a guide.

وَيَقُولُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْلَٓا اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ اٰيَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّه۪ۜ اِنَّـمَٓا اَنْتَ مُنْذِرٌ وَلِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ هَادٍ۟

Wayaqoolu allatheena kafaroo lawlaonzila AAalayhi ayatun min rabbihi innama anta munthirunwalikulli qawmin had

God knows what every female bears, and what the wombs decrease, and what they increase; and everything with Him is in measure.

اَللّٰهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَحْمِلُ كُلُّ اُنْثٰى وَمَا تَغ۪يضُ الْاَرْحَامُ وَمَا تَزْدَادُۜ وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ عِنْدَهُ بِمِقْدَارٍ

Allahu yaAAlamu ma tahmilukullu ontha wama tagheedu al-arhamuwama tazdadu wakullu shay-in AAindahu bimiqdar

The Knower of the Unseen and the Seen, the Great, the Exalted:

عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ الْكَب۪يرُ الْمُتَعَالِ

AAalimu alghaybi washshahadatialkabeeru almutaAAal

It is the same who among you conceals his speech, and who makes it public; and who hides by night, and goes forth by day;

سَوَٓاءٌ مِنْكُمْ مَنْ اَسَرَّ الْقَوْلَ وَمَنْ جَهَرَ بِه۪ وَمَنْ هُوَ مُسْتَخْفٍ بِالَّيْلِ وَسَارِبٌ بِالنَّهَارِ

Sawaon minkum man asarra alqawlawaman jahara bihi waman huwa mustakhfin billayli wasaribunbinnahar

He has successive angels before him and after him, keeping him by the command of God. God changes not what is in a people until they change what is in themselves. And when God intends evil for a people, there is no repelling it; and they have besides Him no ally.

لَهُ مُعَقِّبَاتٌ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِه۪ يَحْفَظُونَهُ مِنْ اَمْرِ اللّٰهِۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتّٰى يُغَيِّرُوا مَا بِاَنْفُسِهِمْۜ وَاِذَٓا اَرَادَ اللّٰهُ بِقَوْمٍ سُٓوءاً فَلَا مَرَدَّ لَهُۚ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ دُونِه۪ مِنْ وَالٍ

Lahu muAAaqqibatun min bayni yadayhiwamin khalfihi yahfathoonahu min amri Allahiinna Allaha la yughayyiru ma biqawmin hattayughayyiroo ma bi-anfusihim wa-itha aradaAllahu biqawmin soo-an fala maradda lahu wamalahum min doonihi min wal

He it is that shows you the lightning as fear and hope, and produces the heavy clouds.

هُوَ الَّذ۪ي يُر۪يكُمُ الْبَرْقَ خَوْفاً وَطَمَعاً وَيُنْشِئُ السَّحَابَ الثِّقَالَۚ

Huwa allathee yureekumu albarqakhawfan watamaAAan wayunshi-o assahaba aththiqal

And the thunder gives glory with His praise, as do the angels, in fear of Him. And He sends the thunderbolts, and strikes therewith whom He wills. And they dispute concerning God; and He is strong in assault.

وَيُسَبِّحُ الرَّعْدُ بِحَمْدِه۪ وَالْمَلٰٓئِكَةُ مِنْ خ۪يفَتِه۪ۚ وَيُرْسِلُ الصَّوَاعِقَ فَيُص۪يبُ بِهَا مَنْ يَشَٓاءُ وَهُمْ يُجَادِلُونَ فِي اللّٰهِۚ وَهُوَ شَد۪يدُ الْمِحَالِۜ

Wayusabbihu arraAAdu bihamdihiwalmala-ikatu min kheefatihi wayursilu assawaAAiqafayuseebu biha man yashao wahum yujadiloonafee Allahi wahuwa shadeedu almihal

To Him belongs the call of truth; and those to whom they call, besides Him, answer them nothing save it be as one stretching forth his hands to water, that it might reach his mouth, but it reaches it not; and the supplication of the false claimers of guidance is only in error.

لَهُ دَعْوَةُ الْحَقِّۜ وَالَّذ۪ينَ يَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِه۪ لَا يَسْتَج۪يبُونَ لَهُمْ بِشَيْءٍ اِلَّا كَبَاسِطِ كَفَّيْهِ اِلَى الْمَٓاءِ لِيَبْلُغَ فَاهُ وَمَا هُوَ بِبَالِغِه۪ۜ وَمَا دُعَٓاءُ الْكَافِر۪ينَ اِلَّا ف۪ي ضَلَالٍ

Lahu daAAwatu alhaqqi wallatheenayadAAoona min doonihi la yastajeeboona lahum bishay-in illakabasiti kaffayhi ila alma-iliyablugha fahu wama huwa bibalighihi wamaduAAao alkafireena illa fee dalal

And to God submits whoso is in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly, as do their shadows in the mornings and the evenings.

وَلِلّٰهِ يَسْجُدُ مَنْ فِي السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضِ طَوْعاً وَكَرْهاً وَظِلَالُهُمْ بِالْغُدُوِّ وَالْاٰصَالِ

Walillahi yasjudu man fee assamawatiwal-ardi tawAAan wakarhan wathilaluhumbilghuduwwi wal-asal

Say thou: “Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth?” Say thou: “God.” Say thou: “Have you then taken, besides Him, allies which have not power to do themselves benefit or harm?” Say thou: “Is the blind equal to the seeing? Or is darkness equal to the light?” If they have ascribed to God partners that created the like of His creation, then the creation appears the same to them. Say thou: “God is creator of all things, and He is the One, the Vanquishing.”

قُلْ مَنْ رَبُّ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضِۜ قُلِ اللّٰهُۜ قُلْ اَفَاتَّخَذْتُمْ مِنْ دُونِه۪ٓ اَوْلِيَٓاءَ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ لِاَنْفُسِهِمْ نَفْعاً وَلَا ضَراًّۜ قُلْ هَلْ يَسْتَوِي الْاَعْمٰى وَالْبَص۪يرُۙ اَمْ هَلْ تَسْتَوِي الظُّلُمَاتُ وَالنُّورُۚ اَمْ جَعَلُوا لِلّٰهِ شُرَكَٓاءَ خَلَقُوا كَخَلْقِه۪ فَتَشَابَهَ الْخَلْقُ عَلَيْهِمْۜ قُلِ اللّٰهُ خَالِقُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَهُوَ الْوَاحِدُ الْقَهَّارُ

Qul man rabbu assamawatiwal-ardi quli Allahu qul afattakhathtummin doonihi awliyaa la yamlikoona li-anfusihimnafAAan wala darran qul hal yastawee al-aAAmawalbaseeru am hal tastawee aththulumatuwannooru am jaAAaloo lillahi shurakaakhalaqoo kakhalqihi fatashabaha alkhalqu AAalayhim quliAllahu khaliqu kulli shay-in wahuwa alwahidualqahhar

He sends down from the sky water, and the valleys flow according to their measure, then the flood carries a swelling froth; and from what they burn in the fire seeking ornaments or tools there is a froth like it. Thus does God present truth and vanity: as for the froth, it departs as dross; and as for what is of benefit to men, it remains in the earth. Thus does God strike similitudes.

اَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَٓاءِ مَٓاءً فَسَالَتْ اَوْدِيَةٌ بِقَدَرِهَا فَاحْتَمَلَ السَّيْلُ زَبَداً رَابِياًۜ وَمِمَّا يُوقِدُونَ عَلَيْهِ فِي النَّارِ ابْتِغَٓاءَ حِلْيَةٍ اَوْ مَتَاعٍ زَبَدٌ مِثْلُهُۜ كَذٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْحَقَّ وَالْبَاطِلَۜ فَاَمَّا الزَّبَدُ فَيَذْهَبُ جُفَٓاءًۚ وَاَمَّا مَا يَنْفَعُ النَّاسَ فَيَمْكُثُ فِي الْاَرْضِۜ كَذٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْاَمْثَالَۜ

For those who respond to their Lord is the best; and those who respond not to Him: had they all that is in the earth altogether, and the like thereof with it, they would seek to ransom themselves thereby. Those have an evil reckoning, and their shelter is Gehenna; and evil is the resting-place.

لِلَّذ۪ينَ اسْتَجَابُوا لِرَبِّهِمُ الْحُسْنٰىۜ وَالَّذ۪ينَ لَمْ يَسْتَج۪يبُوا لَهُ لَوْ اَنَّ لَهُمْ مَا فِي الْاَرْضِ جَم۪يعاً وَمِثْلَهُ مَعَهُ لَافْتَدَوْا بِه۪ۜ اُو۬لٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ سُٓوءُ الْحِسَابِۙ وَمَأْوٰيهُمْ جَهَنَّمُۜ وَبِئْسَ الْمِهَادُ۟

Is then he who knows that what is sent down to thee from thy Lord is the truth like him who is blind? There take heed but those of insight:

اَفَمَنْ يَعْلَمُ اَنَّـمَٓا اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَبِّكَ الْحَقُّ كَمَنْ هُوَ اَعْمٰىۜ اِنَّمَا يَتَذَكَّرُ اُو۬لُوا الْاَلْبَابِۙ

Afaman yaAAlamu annama onzila ilaykamin rabbika alhaqqu kaman huwa aAAma innamayatathakkaru oloo al-albab

Those who fulfil the covenant of God, and break not the agreement,

اَلَّذ۪ينَ يُوفُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللّٰهِ وَلَا يَنْقُضُونَ الْم۪يثَاقَۙ

Allatheena yoofoona biAAahdi Allahiwala yanqudoona almeethaq

And who join what God commanded to be joined, and fear their Lord, and dread the evil of the reckoning,

وَالَّذ۪ينَ يَصِلُونَ مَٓا اَمَرَ اللّٰهُ بِه۪ٓ اَنْ يُوصَلَ وَيَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ وَيَخَافُونَ سُٓوءَ الْحِسَابِۜ

Wallatheena yasiloonama amara Allahu bihi an yoosala wayakhshawnarabbahum wayakhafoona soo-a alhisab

And who are patient seeking the face of their Lord, and uphold the duty, and spend of what We have provided them, secretly and openly, and they avert evil with good: those have the good final abode:

وَالَّذ۪ينَ صَبَرُوا ابْتِغَٓاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِمْ وَاَقَامُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاَنْفَقُوا مِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ سِراًّ وَعَلَانِيَةً وَيَدْرَؤُ۫نَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ السَّيِّئَةَ اُو۬لٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عُقْبَى الدَّارِۙ

Wallatheena sabarooibtighaa wajhi rabbihim waaqamoo assalatawaanfaqoo mimma razaqnahum sirran waAAalaniyatanwayadraoona bilhasanati assayyi-ata ola-ikalahum AAuqba addar

Gardens of perpetual abode which they enter, and whoso was righteous among their fathers, and their wives, and their progeny. And the angels will enter upon them from every gate:

جَنَّاتُ عَدْنٍ يَدْخُلُونَهَا وَمَنْ صَلَحَ مِنْ اٰبَٓائِهِمْ وَاَزْوَاجِهِمْ وَذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ وَالْمَلٰٓئِكَةُ يَدْخُلُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ كُلِّ بَابٍۚ

Jannatu AAadnin yadkhuloonahawaman salaha min aba-ihim waazwajihimwathurriyyatihim walmala-ikatuyadkhuloona AAalayhim min kulli bab

“Peace be upon you, because you were patient!” And excellent is the final abode.

سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ بِمَا صَبَرْتُمْ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَى الدَّارِۜ

Salamun AAalaykum bima sabartumfaniAAma AAuqba addar

But those who break the covenant of God after its agreement, and sever what God has commanded to be joined, and work corruption in the land: those have the curse, and they have the evil abode.

وَالَّذ۪ينَ يَنْقُضُونَ عَهْدَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ بَعْدِ م۪يثَاقِه۪ وَيَقْطَعُونَ مَٓا اَمَرَ اللّٰهُ بِه۪ٓ اَنْ يُوصَلَ وَيُفْسِدُونَ فِي الْاَرْضِۙ اُو۬لٰٓئِكَ لَهُمُ اللَّعْنَةُ وَلَهُمْ سُٓوءُ الدَّارِ

Wallatheena yanqudoonaAAahda Allahi min baAAdi meethaqihi wayaqtaAAoonama amara Allahu bihi an yoosala wayufsidoonafee al-ardi ola-ika lahumu allaAAnatu walahum soo-oaddar

God expands provision for whom He wills, and He straitens. And they exult at the life of this world; but the life of this world compared with the Hereafter is only a passing pleasure.

اَللّٰهُ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَشَٓاءُ وَيَقْدِرُۜ وَفَرِحُوا بِالْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَاۜ وَمَا الْحَيٰوةُ الدُّنْيَا فِي الْاٰخِرَةِ اِلَّا مَتَاعٌ۟

Allahu yabsutu arrizqaliman yashao wayaqdiru wafarihoo bilhayatiaddunya wama alhayatu addunyafee al-akhirati illa mataAA

And those who ignore warning say: “Oh, that a proof were but sent down upon him from his Lord!” Say thou: “God leads astray whom He wills, and guides to Him such as turn back:

وَيَقُولُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْلَٓا اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ اٰيَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّه۪ۜ قُلْ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُضِلُّ مَنْ يَشَٓاءُ وَيَهْد۪ٓي اِلَيْهِ مَنْ اَنَابَۚ

Wayaqoolu allatheena kafaroo lawlaonzila AAalayhi ayatun min rabbihi qul inna Allahayudillu man yashao wayahdee ilayhi man anab

“Those who heed warning and whose hearts find rest in the remembrance of God.” In truth, in the remembrance of God do hearts find rest.

اَلَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا وَتَطْمَئِنُّ قُلُوبُهُمْ بِذِكْرِ اللّٰهِۜ اَلَا بِذِكْرِ اللّٰهِ تَطْمَئِنُّ الْقُلُوبُۜ

Allatheena amanoo watatma-innuquloobuhum bithikri Allahi ala bithikriAllahi tatma-innu alquloob

Those who heed warning and do righteous deeds: they have blessedness, and a good journey’s end.

اَلَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ طُوبٰى لَهُمْ وَحُسْنُ مَاٰبٍ

Allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo assalihatitooba lahum wahusnu maab

Thus have We sent thee among a community — communities have passed away before it — that thou recite to them what We have revealed to thee; but they deny the Almighty. Say thou: “He is my Lord: — there is no god save He — in Him have I placed my trust, and to Him is my return.”

كَذٰلِكَ اَرْسَلْنَاكَ ف۪ٓي اُمَّةٍ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهَٓا اُمَمٌ لِتَتْلُوَ۬ا عَلَيْهِمُ الَّـذ۪ٓي اَوْحَيْنَٓا اِلَيْكَ وَهُمْ يَكْفُرُونَ بِالرَّحْمٰنِۜ قُلْ هُوَ رَبّ۪ي لَٓا اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۚ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَاِلَيْهِ مَتَابِ

Kathalika arsalnaka feeommatin qad khalat min qabliha omamun litatluwa AAalayhimuallathee awhayna ilayka wahum yakfuroona birrahmaniqul huwa rabbee la ilaha illa huwa AAalayhitawakkaltu wa-ilayhi matab

And were there a recitation whereby the mountains were set in motion, or the earth rent asunder, or the dead caused to speak. The truth is, to God belongs the command altogether. Have not those who heed warning despaired that, had God willed, He would have guided mankind all together? And those who ignore warning: disaster will cease not to strike them for what they have wrought, or to descend near their abodes, until the promise of God comes; God will not break the appointment.

وَلَوْ اَنَّ قُرْاٰناً سُيِّرَتْ بِهِ الْجِبَالُ اَوْ قُطِّعَتْ بِهِ الْاَرْضُ اَوْ كُلِّمَ بِهِ الْمَوْتٰىۜ بَلْ لِلّٰهِ الْاَمْرُ جَم۪يعاًۜ اَفَلَمْ يَايْـَٔسِ الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُٓوا اَنْ لَوْ يَشَٓاءُ اللّٰهُ لَهَدَى النَّاسَ جَم۪يعاًۜ وَلَا يَزَالُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا تُص۪يبُهُمْ بِمَا صَنَعُوا قَارِعَةٌ اَوْ تَحُلُّ قَر۪يباً مِنْ دَارِهِمْ حَتّٰى يَأْتِيَ وَعْدُ اللّٰهِۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُخْلِفُ الْم۪يعَادَ۟

Walaw anna qur-anan suyyirat bihialjibalu aw quttiAAat bihi al-ardu awkullima bihi almawta bal lillahi al-amru jameeAAanafalam yay-asi allatheena amanoo an law yashaoAllahu lahada annasa jameeAAan walayazalu allatheena kafaroo tuseebuhum bimasanaAAoo qariAAatun aw tahullu qareeban mindarihim hatta ya/tiya waAAdu Allahiinna Allaha la yukhlifu almeeAAad

And mocked were messengers before thee; and I granted those who ignored warning respite; then I seized them — and how was My retribution!

وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ فَاَمْلَيْتُ لِلَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا ثُمَّ اَخَذْتُهُمْ۠ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عِقَابِ

Walaqadi istuhzi-a birusulin min qablikafaamlaytu lillatheena kafaroo thumma akhathtuhumfakayfa kana AAiqab

Is then He who stands over every soul for what it earns ? But they have made for God partners. Say thou: “Name them: — if you would inform Him of what He knows not in the earth; or if it is a show of speaking.” The truth is: their scheme has been made fair to those who ignore warning, and they have been turned away from the path; and whom God sends astray, for him there is no guide;

اَفَمَنْ هُوَ قَٓائِمٌ عَلٰى كُلِّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْۚ وَجَعَلُوا لِلّٰهِ شُرَكَٓاءَۜ قُلْ سَمُّوهُمْۜ اَمْ تُنَبِّؤُ۫نَهُ بِمَا لَا يَعْلَمُ فِي الْاَرْضِ اَمْ بِظَاهِرٍ مِنَ الْقَوْلِۜ بَلْ زُيِّنَ لِلَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا مَكْرُهُمْ وَصُدُّوا عَنِ السَّب۪يلِۜ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلِ اللّٰهُ فَمَا لَهُ مِنْ هَادٍ

They have punishment in the life of this world; and the punishment of the Hereafter is more severe; and they have against God no defender.

لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ فِي الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَا وَلَعَذَابُ الْاٰخِرَةِ اَشَقُّۚ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ وَاقٍ

Lahum AAathabun fee alhayatiaddunya walaAAathabu al-akhiratiashaqqu wama lahum mina Allahi min waq

The likeness of the Garden, which is promised to those of prudent fear: beneath it rivers flow, its food constant and its shade. That is the final outcome of those who are in prudent fear; and the final outcome of the false claimers of guidance is the Fire.

مَثَلُ الْجَنَّةِ الَّت۪ي وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُونَۜ تَجْر۪ي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهَارُۜ اُكُلُهَا دَٓائِمٌ وَظِلُّهَاۜ تِلْكَ عُقْبَى الَّذ۪ينَ اتَّقَوْاۗ وَعُقْبَى الْكَافِر۪ينَ النَّارُ

Mathalu aljannati allatee wuAAidaalmuttaqoona tajree min tahtiha al-anharuokuluha da-imun wathilluhatilka AAuqba allatheena ittaqaw waAAuqba alkafireenaannar

And those to whom We gave the Writ exult at what is sent down to thee; and among the parties is he who denies some of it. Say thou: “I am only commanded to serve God, and to ascribe not a partnership to Him; to Him do I invite, and to Him is my return.”

وَالَّذ۪ينَ اٰتَيْنَاهُمُ الْكِتَابَ يَفْرَحُونَ بِمَٓا اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكَ وَمِنَ الْاَحْزَابِ مَنْ يُنْكِرُ بَعْضَهُۜ قُلْ اِنَّـمَٓا اُمِرْتُ اَنْ اَعْبُدَ اللّٰهَ وَلَٓا اُشْرِكَ بِه۪ۜ اِلَيْهِ اَدْعُوا وَاِلَيْهِ مَاٰبِ

Wallatheena ataynahumualkitaba yafrahoona bima onzila ilaykawamina al-ahzabi man yunkiru baAAdahu qulinnama omirtu an aAAbuda Allaha wala oshrikabihi ilayhi adAAoo wa-ilayhi maab

And thus have We sent it down as an Arabic judgment. And if thou follow their vain desires after what has come to thee of knowledge, thou wilt have against God neither ally nor defender.

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَنْزَلْنَاهُ حُكْماً عَرَبِياًّۜ وَلَئِنِ اتَّبَعْتَ اَهْوَٓاءَهُمْ بَعْدَ مَا جَٓاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِۙ مَا لَكَ مِنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ وَلِيٍّ وَلَا وَاقٍ۟

Wakathalika anzalnahu hukmanAAarabiyyan wala-ini ittabaAAta ahwaahum baAAda majaaka mina alAAilmi ma laka mina Allahi minwaliyyin wala waq

And We sent messengers before thee. And We appointed for them wives, and progeny; and it was for a messenger to bring a proof only by the leave of God. For every term is a writ.

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلاً مِنْ قَبْلِكَ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُمْ اَزْوَاجاً وَذُرِّيَّةًۜ وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُولٍ اَنْ يَأْتِيَ بِاٰيَةٍ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِ اللّٰهِۜ لِكُلِّ اَجَلٍ كِتَابٌ

Walaqad arsalna rusulan min qablikawajaAAalna lahum azwajan wathurriyyatan wamakana lirasoolin an ya/tiya bi-ayatin illabi-ithni Allahi likulli ajalin kitab

God eliminates what He wills, and He confirms; and with Him is the foundation of the Writ.

يَمْحُوا اللّٰهُ مَا يَشَٓاءُ وَيُثْبِتُۚ وَعِنْدَهُٓ اُمُّ الْكِتَابِ

Yamhoo Allahu ma yashaowayuthbitu waAAindahu ommu alkitab

And whether We show thee part of what We promise them, or We take thee, but upon thee is the notification; and upon Us is the reckoning.

وَاِنْ مَا نُرِيَنَّكَ بَعْضَ الَّذ۪ي نَعِدُهُمْ اَوْ نَتَوَفَّـيَنَّكَ فَاِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ الْبَلَاغُ وَعَلَيْنَا الْحِسَابُ

Wa-in ma nuriyannaka baAAdaallathee naAAiduhum aw natawaffayannaka fa-innamaAAalayka albalaghu waAAalayna alhisab

Have they not considered that We come to the earth, diminishing it from its extremities? And God judges; there is no adjuster of His judgment; and He is swift in reckoning.

اَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا اَنَّا نَأْتِي الْاَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ اَطْرَافِهَاۜ وَاللّٰهُ يَحْكُمُ لَا مُعَقِّبَ لِحُكْمِه۪ۜ وَهُوَ سَر۪يعُ الْحِسَابِ

Awa lam yaraw anna na/tee al-ardananqusuha min atrafiha wallahuyahkumu la muAAaqqiba lihukmihi wahuwasareeAAu alhisab

And there schemed those before them; but to God belongs scheming altogether. He knows what each soul earns. And the atheists will come to know for whom is the final abode.

وَقَدْ مَكَرَ الَّذ۪ينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَلِلّٰهِ الْمَكْرُ جَم۪يعاًۜ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْسِبُ كُلُّ نَفْسٍۜ وَسَيَعْلَمُ الْكُفَّارُ لِمَنْ عُقْبَى الدَّارِ

Waqad makara allatheena min qablihimfalillahi almakru jameeAAan yaAAlamu ma taksibukullu nafsin wasayaAAlamu alkuffaru liman AAuqba addar

And those who ignore warning say: “Thou art not an emissary.” Say thou: “Sufficient is God as witness between me and you; and whoso has knowledge of the Writ.”

وَيَقُولُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا لَسْتَ مُرْسَلاًۜ قُلْ كَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ شَه۪يداً بَيْن۪ي وَبَيْنَكُمْۙ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ الْكِتَابِ
