1. ۞ وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَرۡجُونَ لِقَآءَنَا لَوۡلَآ أُنزِلَ عَلَيۡنَا ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ أَوۡ نَرَىٰ رَبَّنَاۗ لَقَدِ ٱسۡتَكۡبَرُواْ فِيٓ أَنفُسِهِمۡ وَعَتَوۡ عُتُوّٗا كَبِيرٗا٢١

   25:21

   waqāla alladhīna lā yarjūna liqāanā lawlā unzila ʿalaynā l-malāikatu aw narā rabbanā laqadi is'takbarū fī anfusihim waʿataw ʿutuwwan kabīran

   And those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Why were not angels sent down to us, or [why] do we [not] see our Lord?" They have certainly become arrogant within themselves and [become] insolent with great insolence.

2. يَوۡمَ يَرَوۡنَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ لَا بُشۡرَىٰ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ وَيَقُولُونَ حِجۡرٗا مَّحۡجُورٗا٢٢

   25:22

   yawma yarawna l-malāikata lā bush'rā yawma-idhin lil'muj'rimīna wayaqūlūna ḥij'ran maḥjūran

   The day they see the angels - no good tidings will there be that day for the criminals, and [the angels] will say, "Prevented and inaccessible."

3. وَقَدِمۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مَا عَمِلُواْ مِنۡ عَمَلٖ فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُ هَبَآءٗ مَّنثُورًا٢٣

   25:23

   waqadim'nā ilā mā ʿamilū min ʿamalin fajaʿalnāhu habāan manthūran

   And We will approach [i.e., regard] what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed.

4. أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ يَوۡمَئِذٍ خَيۡرٞ مُّسۡتَقَرّٗا وَأَحۡسَنُ مَقِيلٗا٢٤

   25:24

   aṣḥābu l-janati yawma-idhin khayrun mus'taqarran wa-aḥsanu maqīlan

   The companions of Paradise, that Day, are [in] a better settlement and better resting place.

5. وَيَوۡمَ تَشَقَّقُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِٱلۡغَمَٰمِ وَنُزِّلَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ تَنزِيلًا٢٥

   25:25

   wayawma tashaqqaqu l-samāu bil-ghamāmi wanuzzila l-malāikatu tanzīlan

   And [mention] the Day when the heaven will split open with [emerging] clouds, and the angels will be sent down in successive descent.

6. ٱلۡمُلۡكُ يَوۡمَئِذٍ ٱلۡحَقُّ لِلرَّحۡمَٰنِۚ وَكَانَ يَوۡمًا عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ عَسِيرٗا٢٦

   25:26

   al-mul'ku yawma-idhin l-ḥaqu lilrraḥmāni wakāna yawman ʿalā l-kāfirīna ʿasīran

   True sovereignty, that Day, is for the Most Merciful. And it will be upon the disbelievers a difficult Day.

7. وَيَوۡمَ يَعَضُّ ٱلظَّالِمُ عَلَىٰ يَدَيۡهِ يَقُولُ يَٰلَيۡتَنِي ٱتَّخَذۡتُ مَعَ ٱلرَّسُولِ سَبِيلٗا٢٧

   25:27

   wayawma yaʿaḍḍu l-ẓālimu ʿalā yadayhi yaqūlu yālaytanī ittakhadhtu maʿa l-rasūli sabīlan

   And the Day the wrongdoer will bite on his hands [in regret] he will say, "Oh, I wish I had taken with the Messenger a way.

8. يَٰوَيۡلَتَىٰ لَيۡتَنِي لَمۡ أَتَّخِذۡ فُلَانًا خَلِيلٗا٢٨

   25:28

   yāwaylatā laytanī lam attakhidh fulānan khalīlan

   Oh, woe to me! I wish I had not taken that one as a friend.

9. لَّقَدۡ أَضَلَّنِي عَنِ ٱلذِّكۡرِ بَعۡدَ إِذۡ جَآءَنِيۗ وَكَانَ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ لِلۡإِنسَٰنِ خَذُولٗا٢٩

   25:29

   laqad aḍallanī ʿani l-dhik'ri baʿda idh jāanī wakāna l-shayṭānu lil'insāni khadhūlan

   He led me away from the remembrance after it had come to me. And ever is Satan, to man, a deserter."

10. وَقَالَ ٱلرَّسُولُ يَٰرَبِّ إِنَّ قَوۡمِي ٱتَّخَذُواْ هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ مَهۡجُورٗا٣٠

    25:30

    waqāla l-rasūlu yārabbi inna qawmī ittakhadhū hādhā l-qur'āna mahjūran

    And the Messenger has said, "O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur’ān as [a thing] abandoned."

11. وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلۡنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِيٍّ عَدُوّٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَۗ وَكَفَىٰ بِرَبِّكَ هَادِيٗا وَنَصِيرٗا٣١

    25:31

    wakadhālika jaʿalnā likulli nabiyyin ʿaduwwan mina l-muj'rimīna wakafā birabbika hādiyan wanaṣīran

    And thus have We made for every prophet an enemy from among the criminals. But sufficient is your Lord as a guide and a helper.

12. وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لَوۡلَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ جُمۡلَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗۚ كَذَٰلِكَ لِنُثَبِّتَ بِهِۦ فُؤَادَكَۖ وَرَتَّلۡنَٰهُ تَرۡتِيلٗا٣٢

    25:32

    waqāla alladhīna kafarū lawlā nuzzila ʿalayhi l-qur'ānu jum'latan wāḥidatan kadhālika linuthabbita bihi fuādaka warattalnāhu tartīlan

    And those who disbelieve say, "Why was the Qur’ān not revealed to him all at once?" Thus [it is] that We may strengthen thereby your heart. And We have spaced it distinctly.

13. وَلَا يَأۡتُونَكَ بِمَثَلٍ إِلَّا جِئۡنَٰكَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَأَحۡسَنَ تَفۡسِيرًا٣٣

    25:33

    walā yatūnaka bimathalin illā ji'nāka bil-ḥaqi wa-aḥsana tafsīran

    And they do not come to you with an example [i.e., argument] except that We bring you the truth and the best explanation.

14. ٱلَّذِينَ يُحۡشَرُونَ عَلَىٰ وُجُوهِهِمۡ إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ شَرّٞ مَّكَانٗا وَأَضَلُّ سَبِيلٗا٣٤

    25:34

    alladhīna yuḥ'sharūna ʿalā wujūhihim ilā jahannama ulāika sharrun makānan wa-aḍallu sabīlan

    The ones who are gathered on their faces to Hell - those are the worst in position and farthest astray in [their] way.

15. وَلَقَدۡ ءَاتَيۡنَا مُوسَى ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَجَعَلۡنَا مَعَهُۥٓ أَخَاهُ هَٰرُونَ وَزِيرٗا٣٥

    25:35

    walaqad ātaynā mūsā l-kitāba wajaʿalnā maʿahu akhāhu hārūna wazīran

    And We had certainly given Moses the Scripture and appointed with him his brother Aaron as an assistant.

16. فَقُلۡنَا ٱذۡهَبَآ إِلَى ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا فَدَمَّرۡنَٰهُمۡ تَدۡمِيرٗا٣٦

    25:36

    faqul'nā idh'habā ilā l-qawmi alladhīna kadhabū biāyātinā fadammarnāhum tadmīran

    And We said, "Go both of you to the people who have denied Our signs." Then We destroyed them with [complete] destruction.

17. وَقَوۡمَ نُوحٖ لَّمَّا كَذَّبُواْ ٱلرُّسُلَ أَغۡرَقۡنَٰهُمۡ وَجَعَلۡنَٰهُمۡ لِلنَّاسِ ءَايَةٗۖ وَأَعۡتَدۡنَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ عَذَابًا أَلِيمٗا٣٧

    25:37

    waqawma nūḥin lammā kadhabū l-rusula aghraqnāhum wajaʿalnāhum lilnnāsi āyatan wa-aʿtadnā lilẓẓālimīna ʿadhāban alīman

    And the people of Noah - when they denied the messengers, We drowned them, and We made them for mankind a sign. And We have prepared for the wrongdoers a painful punishment.

18. وَعَادٗا وَثَمُودَاْ وَأَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلرَّسِّ وَقُرُونَۢا بَيۡنَ ذَٰلِكَ كَثِيرٗا٣٨

    25:38

    waʿādan wathamūdā wa-aṣḥāba l-rasi waqurūnan bayna dhālika kathīran

    And [We destroyed] ʿAad and Thamūd and the companions of the well and many generations between them.

19. وَكُلّٗا ضَرَبۡنَا لَهُ ٱلۡأَمۡثَٰلَۖ وَكُلّٗا تَبَّرۡنَا تَتۡبِيرٗا٣٩

    25:39

    wakullan ḍarabnā lahu l-amthāla wakullan tabbarnā tatbīran

    And for each We presented examples [as warnings], and each We destroyed with [total] destruction.

20. وَلَقَدۡ أَتَوۡاْ عَلَى ٱلۡقَرۡيَةِ ٱلَّتِيٓ أُمۡطِرَتۡ مَطَرَ ٱلسَّوۡءِۚ أَفَلَمۡ يَكُونُواْ يَرَوۡنَهَاۚ بَلۡ كَانُواْ لَا يَرۡجُونَ نُشُورٗا٤٠

    25:40

    walaqad ataw ʿalā l-qaryati allatī um'ṭirat maṭara l-sawi afalam yakūnū yarawnahā bal kānū lā yarjūna nushūran

    And they have already come upon the town which was showered with a rain of evil [i.e., stones]. So have they not seen it? But they are not expecting resurrection.

21. وَإِذَا رَأَوۡكَ إِن يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلَّا هُزُوًا أَهَٰذَا ٱلَّذِي بَعَثَ ٱللَّهُ رَسُولًا٤١

    25:41

    wa-idhā ra-awka in yattakhidhūnaka illā huzuwan ahādhā alladhī baʿatha l-lahu rasūlan

    And when they see you, [O Muḥammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one whom Allāh has sent as a messenger?

22. إِن كَادَ لَيُضِلُّنَا عَنۡ ءَالِهَتِنَا لَوۡلَآ أَن صَبَرۡنَا عَلَيۡهَاۚ وَسَوۡفَ يَعۡلَمُونَ حِينَ يَرَوۡنَ ٱلۡعَذَابَ مَنۡ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا٤٢

    25:42

    in kāda layuḍillunā ʿan ālihatinā lawlā an ṣabarnā ʿalayhā wasawfa yaʿlamūna ḥīna yarawna l-ʿadhāba man aḍallu sabīlan

    He almost would have misled us from our gods had we not been steadfast in [worship of] them." But they are going to know, when they see the punishment, who is farthest astray in [his] way.

23. أَرَءَيۡتَ مَنِ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَٰهَهُۥ هَوَىٰهُ أَفَأَنتَ تَكُونُ عَلَيۡهِ وَكِيلًا٤٣

    25:43

    ara-ayta mani ittakhadha ilāhahu hawāhu afa-anta takūnu ʿalayhi wakīlan

    Have you seen the one who takes as his god his own desire? Then would you be responsible for him?

24. أَمۡ تَحۡسَبُ أَنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ يَسۡمَعُونَ أَوۡ يَعۡقِلُونَۚ إِنۡ هُمۡ إِلَّا كَٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمِ بَلۡ هُمۡ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا٤٤

    25:44

    am taḥsabu anna aktharahum yasmaʿūna aw yaʿqilūna in hum illā kal-anʿāmi bal hum aḍallu sabīlan

    Or do you think that most of them hear or reason? They are not except like livestock. Rather, they are [even] more astray in [their] way.

25. أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَيۡفَ مَدَّ ٱلظِّلَّ وَلَوۡ شَآءَ لَجَعَلَهُۥ سَاكِنٗا ثُمَّ جَعَلۡنَا ٱلشَّمۡسَ عَلَيۡهِ دَلِيلٗا٤٥

    25:45

    alam tara ilā rabbika kayfa madda l-ẓila walaw shāa lajaʿalahu sākinan thumma jaʿalnā l-shamsa ʿalayhi dalīlan

    Have you not considered your Lord - how He extends the shadow, and if He willed, He could have made it stationary? Then We made the sun for it an indication.

26. ثُمَّ قَبَضۡنَٰهُ إِلَيۡنَا قَبۡضٗا يَسِيرٗا٤٦

    25:46

    thumma qabaḍnāhu ilaynā qabḍan yasīran

    Then We [retract and] hold it with Us for a brief grasp.

27. وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلَّيۡلَ لِبَاسٗا وَٱلنَّوۡمَ سُبَاتٗا وَجَعَلَ ٱلنَّهَارَ نُشُورٗا٤٧

    25:47

    wahuwa alladhī jaʿala lakumu al-layla libāsan wal-nawma subātan wajaʿala l-nahāra nushūran

    And it is He who has made the night for you as clothing and sleep [a means for] rest and has made the day a resurrection.

28. وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِيٓ أَرۡسَلَ ٱلرِّيَٰحَ بُشۡرَۢا بَيۡنَ يَدَيۡ رَحۡمَتِهِۦۚ وَأَنزَلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءٗ طَهُورٗا٤٨

    25:48

    wahuwa alladhī arsala l-riyāḥa bush'ran bayna yaday raḥmatihi wa-anzalnā mina l-samāi māan ṭahūran

    And it is He who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy [i.e., rainfall], and We send down from the sky pure water

29. لِّنُحۡـِۧيَ بِهِۦ بَلۡدَةٗ مَّيۡتٗا وَنُسۡقِيَهُۥ مِمَّا خَلَقۡنَآ أَنۡعَٰمٗا وَأَنَاسِيَّ كَثِيرٗا٤٩

    25:49

    linuḥ'yiya bihi baldatan maytan wanus'qiyahu mimmā khalaqnā anʿāman wa-anāsiyya kathīran

    That We may bring to life thereby a dead land and give it as drink to those We created of numerous livestock and men.

30. وَلَقَدۡ صَرَّفۡنَٰهُ بَيۡنَهُمۡ لِيَذَّكَّرُواْ فَأَبَىٰٓ أَكۡثَرُ ٱلنَّاسِ إِلَّا كُفُورٗا٥٠

    25:50

    walaqad ṣarrafnāhu baynahum liyadhakkarū fa-abā aktharu l-nāsi illā kufūran

    And We have certainly distributed it among them that they might be reminded, but most of the people refuse except disbelief.

31. وَلَوۡ شِئۡنَا لَبَعَثۡنَا فِي كُلِّ قَرۡيَةٖ نَّذِيرٗا٥١

    25:51

    walaw shi'nā labaʿathnā fī kulli qaryatin nadhīran

    And if We had willed, We could have sent into every city a warner.

32. فَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ وَجَٰهِدۡهُم بِهِۦ جِهَادٗا كَبِيرٗا٥٢

    25:52

    falā tuṭiʿi l-kāfirīna wajāhid'hum bihi jihādan kabīran

    So do not obey the disbelievers, and strive against them with it [i.e., the Qur’ān] a great striving.

33. ۞ وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي مَرَجَ ٱلۡبَحۡرَيۡنِ هَٰذَا عَذۡبٞ فُرَاتٞ وَهَٰذَا مِلۡحٌ أُجَاجٞ وَجَعَلَ بَيۡنَهُمَا بَرۡزَخٗا وَحِجۡرٗا مَّحۡجُورٗا٥٣

    25:53

    wahuwa alladhī maraja l-baḥrayni hādhā ʿadhbun furātun wahādhā mil'ḥun ujājun wajaʿala baynahumā barzakhan waḥij'ran maḥjūran

    And it is He who has released [simultaneously] the two seas [i.e., bodies of water], one fresh and sweet and one salty and bitter, and He placed between them a barrier and prohibiting partition.

34. وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ ٱلۡمَآءِ بَشَرٗا فَجَعَلَهُۥ نَسَبٗا وَصِهۡرٗاۗ وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ قَدِيرٗا٥٤

    25:54

    wahuwa alladhī khalaqa mina l-māi basharan fajaʿalahu nasaban waṣih'ran wakāna rabbuka qadīran

    And it is He who has created from water [i.e., semen] a human being and made him [a relative by] lineage and marriage. And ever is your Lord competent [concerning creation].

35. وَيَعۡبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُهُمۡ وَلَا يَضُرُّهُمۡۗ وَكَانَ ٱلۡكَافِرُ عَلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ ظَهِيرٗا٥٥

    25:55

    wayaʿbudūna min dūni l-lahi mā lā yanfaʿuhum walā yaḍurruhum wakāna l-kāfiru ʿalā rabbihi ẓahīran

    But they worship rather than Allāh that which does not benefit them or harm them, and the disbeliever is ever, against his Lord, an assistant [to Satan].

36. وَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰكَ إِلَّا مُبَشِّرٗا وَنَذِيرٗا٥٦

    25:56

    wamā arsalnāka illā mubashiran wanadhīran

    And We have not sent you, [O Muḥammad], except as a bringer of good tidings and a warner.

37. قُلۡ مَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍ إِلَّا مَن شَآءَ أَن يَتَّخِذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِيلٗا٥٧

    25:57

    qul mā asalukum ʿalayhi min ajrin illā man shāa an yattakhidha ilā rabbihi sabīlan

    Say, "I do not ask of you for it any payment - only that whoever wills might take to his Lord a way."

38. وَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱلۡحَيِّ ٱلَّذِي لَا يَمُوتُ وَسَبِّحۡ بِحَمۡدِهِۦۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِهِۦ بِذُنُوبِ عِبَادِهِۦ خَبِيرًا٥٨

    25:58

    watawakkal ʿalā l-ḥayi alladhī lā yamūtu wasabbiḥ biḥamdihi wakafā bihi bidhunūbi ʿibādihi khabīran

    And rely upon the Ever-Living who does not die, and exalt [Allāh] with His praise. And sufficient is He to be, with the sins of His servants, [fully] Aware -

39. ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٖ ثُمَّ ٱسۡتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلۡعَرۡشِۖ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ فَسۡـَٔلۡ بِهِۦ خَبِيرٗا٥٩

    25:59

    alladhī khalaqa l-samāwāti wal-arḍa wamā baynahumā fī sittati ayyāmin thumma is'tawā ʿalā l-ʿarshi l-raḥmānu fasal bihi khabīran

    He who created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six days and then established Himself above the Throne - the Most Merciful, so ask about Him one well informed [i.e., the Prophet (ﷺ)].

40. وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱسۡجُدُواْۤ لِلرَّحۡمَٰنِ قَالُواْ وَمَا ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ أَنَسۡجُدُ لِمَا تَأۡمُرُنَا وَزَادَهُمۡ نُفُورٗا۩٦٠

    25:60

    wa-idhā qīla lahumu us'judū lilrraḥmāni qālū wamā l-raḥmānu anasjudu limā tamurunā wazādahum nufūran

    And when it is said to them, "Prostrate to the Most Merciful," they say, "And what is the Most Merciful? Should we prostrate to that which you order us?" And it increases them in aversion.

41. تَبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ بُرُوجٗا وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا سِرَٰجٗا وَقَمَرٗا مُّنِيرٗا٦١

    25:61

    tabāraka alladhī jaʿala fī l-samāi burūjan wajaʿala fīhā sirājan waqamaran munīran

    Blessed is He who has placed in the sky great stars and placed therein a [burning] lamp and luminous moon.

42. وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ ٱلَّيۡلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ خِلۡفَةٗ لِّمَنۡ أَرَادَ أَن يَذَّكَّرَ أَوۡ أَرَادَ شُكُورٗا٦٢

    25:62

    wahuwa alladhī jaʿala al-layla wal-nahāra khil'fatan liman arāda an yadhakkara aw arāda shukūran

    And it is He who has made the night and the day in succession for whoever desires to remember or desires gratitude.

43. وَعِبَادُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَمۡشُونَ عَلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ هَوۡنٗا وَإِذَا خَاطَبَهُمُ ٱلۡجَٰهِلُونَ قَالُواْ سَلَٰمٗا٦٣

    25:63

    waʿibādu l-raḥmāni alladhīna yamshūna ʿalā l-arḍi hawnan wa-idhā khāṭabahumu l-jāhilūna qālū salāman

    And the servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk upon the earth easily, and when the ignorant address them [harshly], they say [words of] peace,

44. وَٱلَّذِينَ يَبِيتُونَ لِرَبِّهِمۡ سُجَّدٗا وَقِيَٰمٗا٦٤

    25:64

    wa-alladhīna yabītūna lirabbihim sujjadan waqiyāman

    And those who spend [part of] the night to their Lord prostrating and standing [in prayer]

45. وَٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا ٱصۡرِفۡ عَنَّا عَذَابَ جَهَنَّمَۖ إِنَّ عَذَابَهَا كَانَ غَرَامًا٦٥

    25:65

    wa-alladhīna yaqūlūna rabbanā iṣ'rif ʿannā ʿadhāba jahannama inna ʿadhābahā kāna gharāman

    And those who say, "Our Lord, avert from us the punishment of Hell. Indeed, its punishment is ever adhering;

46. إِنَّهَا سَآءَتۡ مُسۡتَقَرّٗا وَمُقَامٗا٦٦

    25:66

    innahā sāat mus'taqarran wamuqāman

    Indeed, it is evil as a settlement and residence."

47. وَٱلَّذِينَ إِذَآ أَنفَقُواْ لَمۡ يُسۡرِفُواْ وَلَمۡ يَقۡتُرُواْ وَكَانَ بَيۡنَ ذَٰلِكَ قَوَامٗا٦٧

    25:67

    wa-alladhīna idhā anfaqū lam yus'rifū walam yaqturū wakāna bayna dhālika qawāman

    And [they are] those who, when they spend, do so not excessively or sparingly but are ever, between that, [justly] moderate

    [And said], "Indeed, those are but a small band,

55. وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَنَا لَغَآئِظُونَ٥٥

    26:55

    wa-innahum lanā laghāiẓūna

    And indeed, they are enraging us,

56. وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَٰذِرُونَ٥٦

    26:56

    wa-innā lajamīʿun ḥādhirūna

    And indeed, we are a cautious society..."

57. فَأَخۡرَجۡنَٰهُم مِّن جَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ٥٧

    26:57

    fa-akhrajnāhum min jannātin waʿuyūnin

    So We removed them from gardens and springs

58. وَكُنُوزٖ وَمَقَامٖ كَرِيمٖ٥٨

    26:58

    wakunūzin wamaqāmin karīmin

    And treasures and honorable station -

59. كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ٥٩

    26:59

    kadhālika wa-awrathnāhā banī is'rāīla

    Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel.

60. فَأَتۡبَعُوهُم مُّشۡرِقِينَ٦٠

    26:60

    fa-atbaʿūhum mush'riqīna

    So they pursued them at sunrise.

61. فَلَمَّا تَرَٰٓءَا ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِ قَالَ أَصۡحَٰبُ مُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّا لَمُدۡرَكُونَ٦١

    26:61

    falammā tarāā l-jamʿāni qāla aṣḥābu mūsā innā lamud'rakūna

    And when the two companies saw one another, the companions of Moses said, "Indeed, we are to be overtaken!"

62. قَالَ كـَلَّآۖ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهۡدِينِ٦٢

    26:62

    qāla kallā inna maʿiya rabbī sayahdīni

    [Moses] said, "No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me."

63. فَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱضۡرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلۡبَحۡرَۖ فَٱنفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرۡقٖ كَٱلطَّوۡدِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ٦٣

    26:63

    fa-awḥaynā ilā mūsā ani iḍ'rib biʿaṣāka l-baḥra fa-infalaqa fakāna kullu fir'qin kal-ṭawdi l-ʿaẓīmi

    Then We inspired to Moses, "Strike with your staff the sea," and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain.

64. وَأَزۡلَفۡنَا ثَمَّ ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ٦٤

    26:64

    wa-azlafnā thamma l-ākharīna

    And We advanced thereto the others [i.e., the pursuers].

65. وَأَنجَيۡنَا مُوسَىٰ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ٦٥

    26:65

    wa-anjaynā mūsā waman maʿahu ajmaʿīna

    And We saved Moses and those with him, all together.

66. ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ٦٦

    26:66

    thumma aghraqnā l-ākharīna

    Then We drowned the others.

67. إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ٦٧

    26:67

    inna fī dhālika laāyatan wamā kāna aktharuhum mu'minīna

    Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

68. وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ٦٨

    26:68

    wa-inna rabbaka lahuwa l-ʿazīzu l-raḥīmu

    And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

69. وَٱتۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ نَبَأَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ٦٩

    26:69

    wa-ut'lu ʿalayhim naba-a ib'rāhīma

    And recite to them the news of Abraham,

70. إِذۡ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوۡمِهِۦ مَا تَعۡبُدُونَ٧٠

    26:70

    idh qāla li-abīhi waqawmihi mā taʿbudūna

    When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?"

71. قَالُواْ نَعۡبُدُ أَصۡنَامٗا فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَٰكِفِينَ٧١

    26:71

    qālū naʿbudu aṣnāman fanaẓallu lahā ʿākifīna

    They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted."

72. قَالَ هَلۡ يَسۡمَعُونَكُمۡ إِذۡ تَدۡعُونَ٧٢

    26:72

    qāla hal yasmaʿūnakum idh tadʿūna

    He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate?

73. أَوۡ يَنفَعُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَضُرُّونَ٧٣

    26:73

    aw yanfaʿūnakum aw yaḍurrūna

    Or do they benefit you, or do they harm?"

74. قَالُواْ بَلۡ وَجَدۡنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفۡعَلُونَ٧٤

    26:74

    qālū bal wajadnā ābāanā kadhālika yafʿalūna

    They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus."

75. قَالَ أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُونَ٧٥

    26:75

    qāla afara-aytum mā kuntum taʿbudūna

    He said, "Then do you see what you have been worshipping,

76. أَنتُمۡ وَءَابَآؤُكُمُ ٱلۡأَقۡدَمُونَ٧٦

    26:76

    antum waābāukumu l-aqdamūna

    You and your ancient forefathers?

77. فَإِنَّهُمۡ عَدُوّٞ لِّيٓ إِلَّا رَبَّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ٧٧

    26:77

    fa-innahum ʿaduwwun lī illā rabba l-ʿālamīna

    Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds,

78. ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَنِي فَهُوَ يَهۡدِينِ٧٨

    26:78

    alladhī khalaqanī fahuwa yahdīni

    Who created me, and He [it is who] guides me.

79. وَٱلَّذِي هُوَ يُطۡعِمُنِي وَيَسۡقِينِ٧٩

    26:79

    wa-alladhī huwa yuṭ'ʿimunī wayasqīni

    And it is He who feeds me and gives me drink.

80. وَإِذَا مَرِضۡتُ فَهُوَ يَشۡفِينِ٨٠

    26:80

    wa-idhā mariḍ'tu fahuwa yashfīni

    And when I am ill, it is He who cures me

81. وَٱلَّذِي يُمِيتُنِي ثُمَّ يُحۡيِينِ٨١

    26:81

    wa-alladhī yumītunī thumma yuḥ'yīni

    And who will cause me to die and then bring me to life

82. وَٱلَّذِيٓ أَطۡمَعُ أَن يَغۡفِرَ لِي خَطِيٓـَٔتِي يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ٨٢

    26:82

    wa-alladhī aṭmaʿu an yaghfira lī khaṭīatī yawma l-dīni

    And who I aspire that He will forgive me my sin on the Day of Recompense."

83. رَبِّ هَبۡ لِي حُكۡمٗا وَأَلۡحِقۡنِي بِٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ٨٣

    26:83

    rabbi hab lī ḥuk'man wa-alḥiq'nī bil-ṣāliḥīna

    [And he said], "My Lord, grant me authority and join me with the righteous.

84. وَٱجۡعَل لِّي لِسَانَ صِدۡقٖ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ٨٤

    26:84

    wa-ij'ʿal lī lisāna ṣid'qin fī l-ākhirīna

    And grant me a mention [i.e., reputation] of honor among later generations.

85. وَٱجۡعَلۡنِي مِن وَرَثَةِ جَنَّةِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ٨٥

    26:85

    wa-ij'ʿalnī min warathati jannati l-naʿīmi

    And place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Pleasure.

86. وَٱغۡفِرۡ لِأَبِيٓ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ٨٦

    26:86

    wa-igh'fir li-abī innahu kāna mina l-ḍālīna

    And forgive my father. Indeed, he has been of those astray.

87. وَلَا تُخۡزِنِي يَوۡمَ يُبۡعَثُونَ٨٧

    26:87

    walā tukh'zinī yawma yub'ʿathūna

    And do not disgrace me on the Day they are [all] resurrected -

88. يَوۡمَ لَا يَنفَعُ مَالٞ وَلَا بَنُونَ٨٨

    26:88

    yawma lā yanfaʿu mālun walā banūna

    The Day when there will not benefit [anyone] wealth or children

89. إِلَّا مَنۡ أَتَى ٱللَّهَ بِقَلۡبٖ سَلِيمٖ٨٩

    26:89

    illā man atā l-laha biqalbin salīmin

    But only one who comes to Allāh with a sound heart."

90. وَأُزۡلِفَتِ ٱلۡجَنَّةُ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ٩٠

    26:90

    wa-uz'lifati l-janatu lil'muttaqīna

    And Paradise will be brought near [that Day] to the righteous.

91. وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلۡجَحِيمُ لِلۡغَاوِينَ٩١

    26:91

    waburrizati l-jaḥīmu lil'ghāwīna

    And Hellfire will be brought forth for the deviators,

92. وَقِيلَ لَهُمۡ أَيۡنَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُونَ٩٢

    26:92

    waqīla lahum ayna mā kuntum taʿbudūna

    And it will be said to them, "Where are those you used to worship

93. مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ هَلۡ يَنصُرُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَنتَصِرُونَ٩٣

    26:93

    min dūni l-lahi hal yanṣurūnakum aw yantaṣirūna

    Other than Allāh? Can they help you or help themselves?"

94. فَكُبۡكِبُواْ فِيهَا هُمۡ وَٱلۡغَاوُۥنَ٩٤

    26:94

    fakub'kibū fīhā hum wal-ghāwūna

    So they will be overturned into it [i.e., Hellfire], they and the deviators

95. وَجُنُودُ إِبۡلِيسَ أَجۡمَعُونَ٩٥

    26:95

    wajunūdu ib'līsa ajmaʿūna

    And the soldiers of Iblees, all together.

96. قَالُواْ وَهُمۡ فِيهَا يَخۡتَصِمُونَ٩٦

    26:96

    qālū wahum fīhā yakhtaṣimūna

    They will say while they dispute therein,

97. تَٱللَّهِ إِن كُنَّا لَفِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ٩٧

    26:97

    tal-lahi in kunnā lafī ḍalālin mubīnin

    "By Allāh, we were indeed in manifest error

98. إِذۡ نُسَوِّيكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ٩٨

    26:98

    idh nusawwīkum birabbi l-ʿālamīna

    When we equated you with the Lord of the worlds.

99. وَمَآ أَضَلَّنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ٩٩

    26:99

    wamā aḍallanā illā l-muj'rimūna

    And no one misguided us except the criminals.

100. فَمَا لَنَا مِن شَٰفِعِينَ١٠٠

     26:100

     famā lanā min shāfiʿīna

     So now we have no intercessors

101. وَلَا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٖ١٠١

     26:101

     walā ṣadīqin ḥamīmin

     And not a devoted friend.

102. فَلَوۡ أَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةٗ فَنَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ١٠٢

     26:102

     falaw anna lanā karratan fanakūna mina l-mu'minīna

     Then if we only had a return [to the world] and could be of the believers..."

103. إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ١٠٣

     26:103

     inna fī dhālika laāyatan wamā kāna aktharuhum mu'minīna

     Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

104. وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ١٠٤

     26:104

     wa-inna rabbaka lahuwa l-ʿazīzu l-raḥīmu

     And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

105. كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ نُوحٍ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ١٠٥

     26:105

     kadhabat qawmu nūḥin l-mur'salīna

     The people of Noah denied the messengers

106. إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ نُوحٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ١٠٦

     26:106

     idh qāla lahum akhūhum nūḥun alā tattaqūna

     When their brother Noah said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?

107. إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ١٠٧

     26:107

     innī lakum rasūlun amīnun

     Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.

108. فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ١٠٨

     26:108

     fa-ittaqū l-laha wa-aṭīʿūni

     So fear Allāh and obey me.

109. وَمَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍۖ إِنۡ أَجۡرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ١٠٩

     26:109

     wamā asalukum ʿalayhi min ajrin in ajriya illā ʿalā rabbi l-ʿālamīna

     And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.

110. فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ١١٠

     26:110

     fa-ittaqū l-laha wa-aṭīʿūni

     So fear Allāh and obey me."

111. ۞ قَالُوٓاْ أَنُؤۡمِنُ لَكَ وَٱتَّبَعَكَ ٱلۡأَرۡذَلُونَ١١١

     26:111

     qālū anu'minu laka wa-ittabaʿaka l-ardhalūna

     They said, "Should we believe you while you are followed by the lowest [class of people]?"

112. قَالَ وَمَا عِلۡمِي بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ١١٢

     26:112

     qāla wamā ʿil'mī bimā kānū yaʿmalūna

     He said, "And what is my knowledge of what they used to do?

113. إِنۡ حِسَابُهُمۡ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّيۖ لَوۡ تَشۡعُرُونَ١١٣

     26:113

     in ḥisābuhum illā ʿalā rabbī law tashʿurūna

     Their account is only upon my Lord, if you [could] perceive.

114. وَمَآ أَنَا۠ بِطَارِدِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ١١٤

     26:114

     wamā anā biṭāridi l-mu'minīna

     And I am not one to drive away the believers.

115. إِنۡ أَنَا۠ إِلَّا نَذِيرٞ مُّبِينٞ١١٥

     26:115

     in anā illā nadhīrun mubīnun

     I am only a clear warner."

116. قَالُواْ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهِ يَٰنُوحُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡمَرۡجُومِينَ١١٦

     26:116

     qālū la-in lam tantahi yānūḥu latakūnanna mina l-marjūmīna

     They said, "If you do not desist, O Noah, you will surely be of those who are stoned."

117. قَالَ رَبِّ إِنَّ قَوۡمِي كَذَّبُونِ١١٧

     26:117

     qāla rabbi inna qawmī kadhabūni

     He said, "My Lord, indeed my people have denied me.

118. فَٱفۡتَحۡ بَيۡنِي وَبَيۡنَهُمۡ فَتۡحٗا وَنَجِّنِي وَمَن مَّعِيَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ١١٨

     26:118

     fa-if'taḥ baynī wabaynahum fatḥan wanajjinī waman maʿiya mina l-mu'minīna

     Then judge between me and them with decisive judgement and save me and those with me of the believers."

119. فَأَنجَيۡنَٰهُ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥ فِي ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ١١٩

     26:119

     fa-anjaynāhu waman maʿahu fī l-ful'ki l-mashḥūni

     So We saved him and those with him in the laden ship.

120. ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا بَعۡدُ ٱلۡبَاقِينَ١٢٠

     26:120

     thumma aghraqnā baʿdu l-bāqīna

     Then We drowned thereafter the remaining ones.

121. إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ١٢١

     26:121

     Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

122. وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ١٢٢

     26:122

     And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

123. كَذَّبَتۡ عَادٌ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ١٢٣

     26:123

     kadhabat ʿādun l-mur'salīna

     ʿAad denied the messengers

124. إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ هُودٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ١٢٤

     26:124

     idh qāla lahum akhūhum hūdun alā tattaqūna

     When their brother Hūd said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?

     Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.

     So fear Allāh and obey me.

127. وَمَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍۖ إِنۡ أَجۡرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ١٢٧

     26:128

     atabnūna bikulli rīʿin āyatan taʿbathūna

     Do you construct on every elevation a sign, amusing yourselves,

129. وَتَتَّخِذُونَ مَصَانِعَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَخۡلُدُونَ١٢٩

     26:129

     watattakhidhūna maṣāniʿa laʿallakum takhludūna

     And take for yourselves constructions [i.e., palaces and fortresses] that you might abide eternally?

130. وَإِذَا بَطَشۡتُم بَطَشۡتُمۡ جَبَّارِينَ١٣٠

     26:130

     wa-idhā baṭashtum baṭashtum jabbārīna

     And when you strike, you strike as tyrants.

131. فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ١٣١

     26:131

     fa-ittaqū l-laha wa-aṭīʿūni

     So fear Allāh and obey me.

     26:132

     And fear He who provided you with that which you know,

133. أَمَدَّكُم بِأَنۡعَٰمٖ وَبَنِينَ١٣٣

     26:133

     amaddakum bi-anʿāmin wabanīna

     Provided you with grazing livestock and children

134. وَجَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٍ١٣٤

     Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a terrible day."

136. قَالُواْ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡنَآ أَوَعَظۡتَ أَمۡ لَمۡ تَكُن مِّنَ ٱلۡوَٰعِظِينَ١٣٦

     They said, "It is all the same to us whether you advise or are not of the advisors.

     This is not but the custom of the former peoples,

     26:187

     fa-asqiṭ ʿalaynā kisafan mina l-samāi in kunta mina l-ṣādiqīna

     So cause to fall upon us fragments of the sky, if you should be of the truthful."

     26:189

     fakadhabūhu fa-akhadhahum ʿadhābu yawmi l-ẓulati innahu kāna ʿadhāba yawmin ʿaẓīmin

     And they denied him, so the punishment of the day of the black cloud seized them. Indeed, it was the punishment of a terrible day.

190. إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ١٩٠

     26:190

     inna fī dhālika laāyatan wamā kāna aktharuhum mu'minīna

     Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

191. وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ١٩١

     26:191

     wa-inna rabbaka lahuwa l-ʿazīzu l-raḥīmu

     And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

192. وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَنزِيلُ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ١٩٢

     26:192

     wa-innahu latanzīlu rabbi l-ʿālamīna

     And indeed, it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds.

193. نَزَلَ بِهِ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلۡأَمِينُ١٩٣

     26:193

     nazala bihi l-rūḥu l-amīnu

     The Trustworthy Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] has brought it down

194. عَلَىٰ قَلۡبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُنذِرِينَ١٩٤

     26:194

     ʿalā qalbika litakūna mina l-mundhirīna

     Upon your heart, [O Muḥammad] - that you may be of the warners -

195. بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِيّٖ مُّبِينٖ١٩٥

     26:195

     bilisānin ʿarabiyyin mubīnin

     In a clear Arabic language.

196. وَإِنَّهُۥ لَفِي زُبُرِ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ١٩٦

     26:196

     wa-innahu lafī zuburi l-awalīna

     And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples.

197. أَوَلَمۡ يَكُن لَّهُمۡ ءَايَةً أَن يَعۡلَمَهُۥ عُلَمَٰٓؤُاْ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ١٩٧

     26:197

     awalam yakun lahum āyatan an yaʿlamahu ʿulamāu banī is'rāīla

     And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel?

198. وَلَوۡ نَزَّلۡنَٰهُ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضِ ٱلۡأَعۡجَمِينَ١٩٨

     26:198

     walaw nazzalnāhu ʿalā baʿḍi l-aʿjamīna

     And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners

199. فَقَرَأَهُۥ عَلَيۡهِم مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ مُؤۡمِنِينَ١٩٩

     26:199

     faqara-ahu ʿalayhim mā kānū bihi mu'minīna

     And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it.

200. كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكۡنَٰهُ فِي قُلُوبِ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ٢٠٠

     26:200

     kadhālika salaknāhu fī qulūbi l-muj'rimīna

     Thus have We inserted it [i.e., disbelief] into the hearts of the criminals.

201. لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِهِۦ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُاْ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَلِيمَ٢٠١

     26:201

     lā yu'minūna bihi ḥattā yarawū l-ʿadhāba l-alīma

     They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment.

202. فَيَأۡتِيَهُم بَغۡتَةٗ وَهُمۡ لَا يَشۡعُرُونَ٢٠٢

     26:202

     fayatiyahum baghtatan wahum lā yashʿurūna

     And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not.

203. فَيَقُولُواْ هَلۡ نَحۡنُ مُنظَرُونَ٢٠٣

     26:203

     fayaqūlū hal naḥnu munẓarūna

     And they will say, "May we be reprieved?"

204. أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ٢٠٤

     26:204

     afabiʿadhābinā yastaʿjilūna

     So for Our punishment are they impatient?

205. أَفَرَءَيۡتَ إِن مَّتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ سِنِينَ٢٠٥

     26:205

     afara-ayta in mattaʿnāhum sinīna

     Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years

206. ثُمَّ جَآءَهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يُوعَدُونَ٢٠٦

     26:206

     thumma jāahum mā kānū yūʿadūna

     And then there came to them that which they were promised?

207. مَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يُمَتَّعُونَ٢٠٧

     26:207

     mā aghnā ʿanhum mā kānū yumattaʿūna

     They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided.

208. وَمَآ أَهۡلَكۡنَا مِن قَرۡيَةٍ إِلَّا لَهَا مُنذِرُونَ٢٠٨

     26:208

     wamā ahlaknā min qaryatin illā lahā mundhirūna

     And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners

209. ذِكۡرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَٰلِمِينَ٢٠٩

     26:209

     dhik'rā wamā kunnā ẓālimīna

     As a reminder; and never have We been unjust.

210. وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتۡ بِهِ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ٢١٠

     26:210

     wamā tanazzalat bihi l-shayāṭīnu

     And the devils have not brought it [i.e., the revelation] down.

211. وَمَا يَنۢبَغِي لَهُمۡ وَمَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ٢١١

     26:211

     wamā yanbaghī lahum wamā yastaṭīʿūna

     It is not allowable for them, nor would they be able.

212. إِنَّهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلسَّمۡعِ لَمَعۡزُولُونَ٢١٢

     26:212

     innahum ʿani l-samʿi lamaʿzūlūna

     Indeed they, from [its] hearing, are removed.

213. فَلَا تَدۡعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُعَذَّبِينَ٢١٣

     26:213

     falā tadʿu maʿa l-lahi ilāhan ākhara fatakūna mina l-muʿadhabīna

     So do not invoke with Allāh another deity and [thus] be among the punished.

    And [he was told], "Throw down your staff." But when he saw it writhing as if it were a snake, he turned in flight and did not return. [Allāh said], "O Moses, fear not. Indeed, in My presence the messengers do not fear.

11. إِلَّا مَن ظَلَمَ ثُمَّ بَدَّلَ حُسۡنَۢا بَعۡدَ سُوٓءٖ فَإِنِّي غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ١١

    And put your hand into the opening of your garment [at the breast]; it will come out white without disease. [These are] among the nine signs [you will take] to Pharaoh and his people. Indeed, they have been a people defiantly disobedient."

13. فَلَمَّا جَآءَتۡهُمۡ ءَايَٰتُنَا مُبۡصِرَةٗ قَالُواْ هَٰذَا سِحۡرٞ مُّبِينٞ١٣

    27:13

    falammā jāathum āyātunā mub'ṣiratan qālū hādhā siḥ'run mubīnun

    But when there came to them Our visible signs, they said, "This is obvious magic."

14. وَجَحَدُواْ بِهَا وَٱسۡتَيۡقَنَتۡهَآ أَنفُسُهُمۡ ظُلۡمٗا وَعُلُوّٗاۚ فَٱنظُرۡ كَيۡفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلۡمُفۡسِدِينَ١٤

    wajaḥadū bihā wa-is'tayqanathā anfusuhum ẓul'man waʿuluwwan fa-unẓur kayfa kāna ʿāqibatu l-muf'sidīna

    And they rejected them, while their [inner] selves were convinced thereof, out of injustice and haughtiness. So see how was the end of the corrupters.

15. وَلَقَدۡ ءَاتَيۡنَا دَاوُۥدَ وَسُلَيۡمَٰنَ عِلۡمٗاۖ وَقَالَا ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي فَضَّلَنَا عَلَىٰ كَثِيرٖ مِّنۡ عِبَادِهِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ١٥

    27:15

    walaqad ātaynā dāwūda wasulaymāna ʿil'man waqālā l-ḥamdu lillahi alladhī faḍḍalanā ʿalā kathīrin min ʿibādihi l-mu'minīna

    And We had certainly given to David and Solomon knowledge, and they said, "Praise [is due] to Allāh, who has favored us over many of His believing servants."

16. وَوَرِثَ سُلَيۡمَٰنُ دَاوُۥدَۖ وَقَالَ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ عُلِّمۡنَا مَنطِقَ ٱلطَّيۡرِ وَأُوتِينَا مِن كُلِّ شَيۡءٍۖ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلۡفَضۡلُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ١٦

    27:16

    wawaritha sulaymānu dāwūda waqāla yāayyuhā l-nāsu ʿullim'nā manṭiqa l-ṭayri waūtīnā min kulli shayin inna hādhā lahuwa l-faḍlu l-mubīnu

    And Solomon inherited David. He said, "O people, we have been taught the language of birds, and we have been given from all things. Indeed, this is evident bounty."

17. وَحُشِرَ لِسُلَيۡمَٰنَ جُنُودُهُۥ مِنَ ٱلۡجِنِّ وَٱلۡإِنسِ وَٱلطَّيۡرِ فَهُمۡ يُوزَعُونَ١٧

    27:17

    waḥushira lisulaymāna junūduhu mina l-jini wal-insi wal-ṭayri fahum yūzaʿūna

    And gathered for Solomon were his soldiers of the jinn and men and birds, and they were [marching] in rows

18. حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَتَوۡاْ عَلَىٰ وَادِ ٱلنَّمۡلِ قَالَتۡ نَمۡلَةٞ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّمۡلُ ٱدۡخُلُواْ مَسَٰكِنَكُمۡ لَا يَحۡطِمَنَّكُمۡ سُلَيۡمَٰنُ وَجُنُودُهُۥ وَهُمۡ لَا يَشۡعُرُونَ١٨

    27:18

    ḥattā idhā ataw ʿalā wādi l-namli qālat namlatun yāayyuhā l-namlu ud'khulū masākinakum lā yaḥṭimannakum sulaymānu wajunūduhu wahum lā yashʿurūna

    Until, when they came upon the valley of the ants, an ant said, "O ants, enter your dwellings that you not be crushed by Solomon and his soldiers while they perceive not."

19. فَتَبَسَّمَ ضَاحِكٗا مِّن قَوۡلِهَا وَقَالَ رَبِّ أَوۡزِعۡنِيٓ أَنۡ أَشۡكُرَ نِعۡمَتَكَ ٱلَّتِيٓ أَنۡعَمۡتَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَىٰ وَٰلِدَيَّ وَأَنۡ أَعۡمَلَ صَٰلِحٗا تَرۡضَىٰهُ وَأَدۡخِلۡنِي بِرَحۡمَتِكَ فِي عِبَادِكَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ١٩

    27:19

    fatabassama ḍāḥikan min qawlihā waqāla rabbi awziʿ'nī an ashkura niʿ'mataka allatī anʿamta ʿalayya waʿalā wālidayya wa-an aʿmala ṣāliḥan tarḍāhu wa-adkhil'nī biraḥmatika fī ʿibādika l-ṣāliḥīna

    So [Solomon] smiled, amused at her speech, and said, "My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And admit me by Your mercy into [the ranks of] Your righteous servants."

20. وَتَفَقَّدَ ٱلطَّيۡرَ فَقَالَ مَالِيَ لَآ أَرَى ٱلۡهُدۡهُدَ أَمۡ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡغَآئِبِينَ٢٠

    27:20

    watafaqqada l-ṭayra faqāla mā liya lā arā l-hud'huda am kāna mina l-ghāibīna

    And he took attendance of the birds and said, "Why do I not see the hoopoe - or is he among the absent?

21. لَأُعَذِّبَنَّهُۥ عَذَابٗا شَدِيدًا أَوۡ لَأَاْذۡبَحَنَّهُۥٓ أَوۡ لَيَأۡتِيَنِّي بِسُلۡطَٰنٖ مُّبِينٖ٢١

    27:21

    la-uʿadhibannahu ʿadhāban shadīdan aw laādh'baḥannahu aw layatiyannī bisul'ṭānin mubīnin

    I will surely punish him with a severe punishment or slaughter him unless he brings me clear authorization."

22. فَمَكَثَ غَيۡرَ بَعِيدٖ فَقَالَ أَحَطتُ بِمَا لَمۡ تُحِطۡ بِهِۦ وَجِئۡتُكَ مِن سَبَإِۭ بِنَبَإٖ يَقِينٍ٢٢

    27:22

    famakatha ghayra baʿīdin faqāla aḥaṭtu bimā lam tuḥiṭ bihi waji'tuka min saba-in binaba-in yaqīnin

    But he [i.e., the hoopoe] stayed not long and said, "I have encompassed [in knowledge] that which you have not encompassed, and I have come to you from Sheba with certain news.

23. إِنِّي وَجَدتُّ ٱمۡرَأَةٗ تَمۡلِكُهُمۡ وَأُوتِيَتۡ مِن كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ وَلَهَا عَرۡشٌ عَظِيمٞ٢٣

    27:23

    innī wajadttu im'ra-atan tamlikuhum waūtiyat min kulli shayin walahā ʿarshun ʿaẓīmun

    Indeed, I found [there] a woman ruling them, and she has been given of all things, and she has a great throne.

24. وَجَدتُّهَا وَقَوۡمَهَا يَسۡجُدُونَ لِلشَّمۡسِ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡ فَصَدَّهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ فَهُمۡ لَا يَهۡتَدُونَ٢٤

    27:24

    wajadttuhā waqawmahā yasjudūna lilshamsi min dūni l-lahi wazayyana lahumu l-shayṭānu aʿmālahum faṣaddahum ʿani l-sabīli fahum lā yahtadūna

    I found her and her people prostrating to the sun instead of Allāh, and Satan has made their deeds pleasing to them and averted them from [His] way, so they are not guided,

25. أَلَّاۤ يَسۡجُدُواْۤ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي يُخۡرِجُ ٱلۡخَبۡءَ فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَيَعۡلَمُ مَا تُخۡفُونَ وَمَا تُعۡلِنُونَ٢٥

    27:25

    allā yasjudū lillahi alladhī yukh'riju l-khaba-a fī l-samāwāti wal-arḍi wayaʿlamu mā tukh'fūna wamā tuʿ'linūna

    [And] so they do not prostrate to Allāh, who brings forth what is hidden within the heavens and the earth and knows what you conceal and what you declare -

26. ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ ٱلۡعَرۡشِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ۩٢٦

    27:26

    al-lahu lā ilāha illā huwa rabbu l-ʿarshi l-ʿaẓīmi

    Allāh - there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Great Throne."

27. ۞ قَالَ سَنَنظُرُ أَصَدَقۡتَ أَمۡ كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰذِبِينَ٢٧

    27:27

    qāla sananẓuru aṣadaqta am kunta mina l-kādhibīna

    [Solomon] said, "We will see whether you were truthful or were of the liars.

28. ٱذۡهَب بِّكِتَٰبِي هَٰذَا فَأَلۡقِهۡ إِلَيۡهِمۡ ثُمَّ تَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ فَٱنظُرۡ مَاذَا يَرۡجِعُونَ٢٨

    27:28

    idh'hab bikitābī hādhā fa-alqih ilayhim thumma tawalla ʿanhum fa-unẓur mādhā yarjiʿūna

    Take this letter of mine and deliver it to them. Then leave them and see what [answer] they will return."

29. قَالَتۡ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلۡمَلَؤُاْ إِنِّيٓ أُلۡقِيَ إِلَيَّ كِتَٰبٞ كَرِيمٌ٢٩

    27:29

    qālat yāayyuhā l-mala-u innī ul'qiya ilayya kitābun karīmun

    She said, "O eminent ones, indeed, to me has been delivered a noble letter.

30. إِنَّهُۥ مِن سُلَيۡمَٰنَ وَإِنَّهُۥ بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ٣٠

    27:30

    innahu min sulaymāna wa-innahu bis'mi l-lahi l-raḥmāni l-raḥīmi

    Indeed, it is from Solomon, and indeed, it is [i.e., reads]: 'In the name of Allāh, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful,

31. أَلَّا تَعۡلُواْ عَلَيَّ وَأۡتُونِي مُسۡلِمِينَ٣١

    27:31

    allā taʿlū ʿalayya watūnī mus'limīna

    Be not haughty with me but come to me in submission [as Muslims].'"

32. قَالَتۡ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلۡمَلَؤُاْ أَفۡتُونِي فِيٓ أَمۡرِي مَا كُنتُ قَاطِعَةً أَمۡرًا حَتَّىٰ تَشۡهَدُونِ٣٢

    27:32

    qālat yāayyuhā l-mala-u aftūnī fī amrī mā kuntu qāṭiʿatan amran ḥattā tashhadūni

    She said, "O eminent ones, advise me in my affair. I would not decide a matter until you witness [for] me."

33. قَالُواْ نَحۡنُ أُوْلُواْ قُوَّةٖ وَأُوْلُواْ بَأۡسٖ شَدِيدٖ وَٱلۡأَمۡرُ إِلَيۡكِ فَٱنظُرِي مَاذَا تَأۡمُرِينَ٣٣

    27:33

    qālū naḥnu ulū quwwatin wa-ulū basin shadīdin wal-amru ilayki fa-unẓurī mādhā tamurīna

    They said, "We are men of strength and of great military might, but the command is yours, so see what you will command."

34. قَالَتۡ إِنَّ ٱلۡمُلُوكَ إِذَا دَخَلُواْ قَرۡيَةً أَفۡسَدُوهَا وَجَعَلُوٓاْ أَعِزَّةَ أَهۡلِهَآ أَذِلَّةٗۚ وَكَذَٰلِكَ يَفۡعَلُونَ٣٤

    27:34

    qālat inna l-mulūka idhā dakhalū qaryatan afsadūhā wajaʿalū aʿizzata ahlihā adhillatan wakadhālika yafʿalūna

    She said, "Indeed kings - when they enter a city, they ruin it and render the honored of its people humbled. And thus do they do.

35. وَإِنِّي مُرۡسِلَةٌ إِلَيۡهِم بِهَدِيَّةٖ فَنَاظِرَةُۢ بِمَ يَرۡجِعُ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ٣٥

    27:35

    wa-innī mur'silatun ilayhim bihadiyyatin fanāẓiratun bima yarjiʿu l-mur'salūna

    But indeed, I will send to them a gift and see with what [reply] the messengers will return."

36. فَلَمَّا جَآءَ سُلَيۡمَٰنَ قَالَ أَتُمِدُّونَنِ بِمَالٖ فَمَآ ءَاتَىٰنِۦَ ٱللَّهُ خَيۡرٞ مِّمَّآ ءَاتَىٰكُمۚ بَلۡ أَنتُم بِهَدِيَّتِكُمۡ تَفۡرَحُونَ٣٦

    falammā jāa sulaymāna qāla atumiddūnani bimālin famā ātāniya l-lahu khayrun mimmā ātākum bal antum bihadiyyatikum tafraḥūna

    So when they came to Solomon, he said, "Do you provide me with wealth? But what Allāh has given me is better than what He has given you. Rather, it is you who rejoice in your gift.

37. ٱرۡجِعۡ إِلَيۡهِمۡ فَلَنَأۡتِيَنَّهُم بِجُنُودٖ لَّا قِبَلَ لَهُم بِهَا وَلَنُخۡرِجَنَّهُم مِّنۡهَآ أَذِلَّةٗ وَهُمۡ صَٰغِرُونَ٣٧

    Said one who had knowledge from the Scripture, "I will bring it to you before your glance returns to you." And when [Solomon] saw it placed before him, he said, "This is from the favor of my Lord to test me whether I will be grateful or ungrateful. And whoever is grateful - his gratitude is only for [the benefit of] himself. And whoever is ungrateful - then indeed, my Lord is Free of need and Generous."

41. قَالَ نَكِّرُواْ لَهَا عَرۡشَهَا نَنظُرۡ أَتَهۡتَدِيٓ أَمۡ تَكُونُ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَهۡتَدُونَ٤١

    She was told, "Enter the palace." But when she saw it, she thought it was a body of water and uncovered her shins [to wade through]. He said, "Indeed, it is a palace [whose floor is] made smooth with glass." She said, "My Lord, indeed I have wronged myself, and I submit with Solomon to Allāh, Lord of the worlds."

45. وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَآ إِلَىٰ ثَمُودَ أَخَاهُمۡ صَٰلِحًا أَنِ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ فَإِذَا هُمۡ فَرِيقَانِ يَخۡتَصِمُونَ٤٥
