  8. لِيَأۡكُلُواْ مِن ثَمَرِهِۦ وَمَا عَمِلَتۡهُ أَيۡدِيهِمۡۚ أَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُونَ٣٥

    36:35

    liyakulū min thamarihi wamā ʿamilathu aydīhim afalā yashkurūna

    That they may eat of His fruit. And their hands have not produced it, so will they not be grateful?

    wal-qamara qaddarnāhu manāzila ḥattā ʿāda kal-ʿur'jūni l-qadīmi

    And the moon - We have determined for it phases, until it returns [appearing] like the old date stalk.

  13. لَا ٱلشَّمۡسُ يَنۢبَغِي لَهَآ أَن تُدۡرِكَ ٱلۡقَمَرَ وَلَا ٱلَّيۡلُ سَابِقُ ٱلنَّهَارِۚ وَكُلّٞ فِي فَلَكٖ يَسۡبَحُونَ٤٠

    36:43

    wa-in nasha nugh'riq'hum falā ṣarīkha lahum walā hum yunqadhūna

    And if We should will, We could drown them; then no one responding to a cry would there be for them, nor would they be saved

    36:44

    illā raḥmatan minnā wamatāʿan ilā ḥīnin

    Except as a mercy from Us and provision for a time.

  18. وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّقُواْ مَا بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِيكُمۡ وَمَا خَلۡفَكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ٤٥

    36:45

    wa-idhā qīla lahumu ittaqū mā bayna aydīkum wamā khalfakum laʿallakum tur'ḥamūna

    But when it is said to them, "Beware of what is before you and what is behind you; perhaps you will receive mercy..."

  19. وَمَا تَأۡتِيهِم مِّنۡ ءَايَةٖ مِّنۡ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمۡ إِلَّا كَانُواْ عَنۡهَا مُعۡرِضِينَ٤٦

    36:47

    wa-idhā qīla lahum anfiqū mimmā razaqakumu l-lahu qāla alladhīna kafarū lilladhīna āmanū anuṭ'ʿimu man law yashāu l-lahu aṭʿamahu in antum illā fī ḍalālin mubīnin

    And when it is said to them, "Spend from that which Allāh has provided for you," those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Should we feed one whom, if Allāh had willed, He would have fed? You are not but in clear error."

  21. وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَٰذَا ٱلۡوَعۡدُ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ٤٨

    36:49

    mā yanẓurūna illā ṣayḥatan wāḥidatan takhudhuhum wahum yakhiṣṣimūna

    They do not await except one blast which will seize them while they are disputing.

    36:50

    falā yastaṭīʿūna tawṣiyatan walā ilā ahlihim yarjiʿūna

    wanufikha fī l-ṣūri fa-idhā hum mina l-ajdāthi ilā rabbihim yansilūna

    And the Horn will be blown; and at once from the graves to their Lord they will hasten.

  25. قَالُواْ يَٰوَيۡلَنَا مَنۢ بَعَثَنَا مِن مَّرۡقَدِنَاۜۗ هَٰذَا مَا وَعَدَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ وَصَدَقَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ٥٢

    36:52

    qālū yāwaylanā man baʿathanā min marqadinā hādhā mā waʿada l-raḥmānu waṣadaqa l-mur'salūna

    They will say, "O woe to us! Who has raised us up from our sleeping place?" [The reply will be], "This is what the Most Merciful had promised, and the messengers told the truth."

  26. إِن كَانَتۡ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ فَإِذَا هُمۡ جَمِيعٞ لَّدَيۡنَا مُحۡضَرُونَ٥٣

    36:53

    in kānat illā ṣayḥatan wāḥidatan fa-idhā hum jamīʿun ladaynā muḥ'ḍarūna

    It will not be but one blast, and at once they are all brought present before Us.

  27. فَٱلۡيَوۡمَ لَا تُظۡلَمُ نَفۡسٞ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا تُجۡزَوۡنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ٥٤

    36:54

    fal-yawma lā tuẓ'lamu nafsun shayan walā tuj'zawna illā mā kuntum taʿmalūna

    So today [i.e., the Day of Judgement] no soul will be wronged at all, and you will not be recompensed except for what you used to do.

  28. إِنَّ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ فِي شُغُلٖ فَٰكِهُونَ٥٥

    36:55

    inna aṣḥāba l-janati l-yawma fī shughulin fākihūna

    Indeed the companions of Paradise, that Day, will be amused in [joyful] occupation -

    36:56

    hum wa-azwājuhum fī ẓilālin ʿalā l-arāiki muttakiūna

    [Then He will say], "But stand apart today, you criminals.

  33. ۞ أَلَمۡ أَعۡهَدۡ إِلَيۡكُمۡ يَٰبَنِيٓ ءَادَمَ أَن لَّا تَعۡبُدُواْ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنَۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمۡ عَدُوّٞ مُّبِينٞ٦٠

    36:60

    alam aʿhad ilaykum yābanī ādama an lā taʿbudū l-shayṭāna innahu lakum ʿaduwwun mubīnun

    Did I not enjoin upon you, O children of Adam, that you not worship Satan - [for] indeed, he is to you a clear enemy -

  34. وَأَنِ ٱعۡبُدُونِيۚ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٞ مُّسۡتَقِيمٞ٦١

    36:61

    wa-ani uʿ'budūnī hādhā ṣirāṭun mus'taqīmun

    And that you worship [only] Me? This is a straight path.

  35. وَلَقَدۡ أَضَلَّ مِنكُمۡ جِبِلّٗا كَثِيرًاۖ أَفَلَمۡ تَكُونُواْ تَعۡقِلُونَ٦٢

    36:62

    walaqad aḍalla minkum jibillan kathīran afalam takūnū taʿqilūna

    And he had already led astray from among you much of creation, so did you not use reason?

    36:65

    al-yawma nakhtimu ʿalā afwāhihim watukallimunā aydīhim watashhadu arjuluhum bimā kānū yaksibūna

    That Day, We will seal over their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their feet will testify about what they used to earn.

  39. وَلَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَطَمَسۡنَا عَلَىٰٓ أَعۡيُنِهِمۡ فَٱسۡتَبَقُواْ ٱلصِّرَٰطَ فَأَنَّىٰ يُبۡصِرُونَ٦٦

    36:66

    walaw nashāu laṭamasnā ʿalā aʿyunihim fa-is'tabaqū l-ṣirāṭa fa-annā yub'ṣirūna

    And if We willed, We could have obliterated their eyes, and they would race to [find] the path, and how could they see?

  40. وَلَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَمَسَخۡنَٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِهِمۡ فَمَا ٱسۡتَطَٰعُواْ مُضِيّٗا وَلَا يَرۡجِعُونَ٦٧

    36:67

    walaw nashāu lamasakhnāhum ʿalā makānatihim famā is'taṭāʿū muḍiyyan walā yarjiʿūna

    And if We willed, We could have deformed them, [paralyzing them] in their places so they would not be able to proceed, nor could they return.

  41. وَمَن نُّعَمِّرۡهُ نُنَكِّسۡهُ فِي ٱلۡخَلۡقِۚ أَفَلَا يَعۡقِلُونَ٦٨

    36:68

    waman nuʿammir'hu nunakkis'hu fī l-khalqi afalā yaʿqilūna

    And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation; so will they not understand?

  42. وَمَا عَلَّمۡنَٰهُ ٱلشِّعۡرَ وَمَا يَنۢبَغِي لَهُۥٓۚ إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرٞ وَقُرۡءَانٞ مُّبِينٞ٦٩

    36:69

    wamā ʿallamnāhu l-shiʿ'ra wamā yanbaghī lahu in huwa illā dhik'run waqur'ānun mubīnun

    And We did not give him [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)] knowledge of poetry, nor is it befitting for him. It is not but a message and a clear Qur’ān

  43. لِّيُنذِرَ مَن كَانَ حَيّٗا وَيَحِقَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ٧٠

    36:70

    liyundhira man kāna ḥayyan wayaḥiqqa l-qawlu ʿalā l-kāfirīna

    To warn whoever is alive and justify the word [i.e., decree] against the disbelievers.

  44. أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَا لَهُم مِّمَّا عَمِلَتۡ أَيۡدِينَآ أَنۡعَٰمٗا فَهُمۡ لَهَا مَٰلِكُونَ٧١

    36:71

    awalam yaraw annā khalaqnā lahum mimmā ʿamilat aydīnā anʿāman fahum lahā mālikūna

    Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners?

  45. وَذَلَّلۡنَٰهَا لَهُمۡ فَمِنۡهَا رَكُوبُهُمۡ وَمِنۡهَا يَأۡكُلُونَ٧٢

    36:72

    wadhallalnāhā lahum famin'hā rakūbuhum wamin'hā yakulūna

    And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat.

  46. وَلَهُمۡ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ وَمَشَارِبُۚ أَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُونَ٧٣

    36:73

    walahum fīhā manāfiʿu wamashāribu afalā yashkurūna

    And for them therein are [other] benefits and drinks, so will they not be grateful?

  47. وَٱتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ءَالِهَةٗ لَّعَلَّهُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ٧٤

    36:74

    wa-ittakhadhū min dūni l-lahi ālihatan laʿallahum yunṣarūna

    But they have taken besides Allāh [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped.

  48. لَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ نَصۡرَهُمۡ وَهُمۡ لَهُمۡ جُندٞ مُّحۡضَرُونَ٧٥

    36:75

    lā yastaṭīʿūna naṣrahum wahum lahum jundun muḥ'ḍarūna

    They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance.

  49. فَلَا يَحۡزُنكَ قَوۡلُهُمۡۘ إِنَّا نَعۡلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعۡلِنُونَ٧٦

    36:76

    falā yaḥzunka qawluhum innā naʿlamu mā yusirrūna wamā yuʿ'linūna

    So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare.

  50. أَوَلَمۡ يَرَ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَٰهُ مِن نُّطۡفَةٖ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٞ مُّبِينٞ٧٧

    36:77

    awalam yara l-insānu annā khalaqnāhu min nuṭ'fatin fa-idhā huwa khaṣīmun mubīnun

    Does man not consider that We created him from a [mere] sperm-drop - then at once he is a clear adversary?

  51. وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلٗا وَنَسِيَ خَلۡقَهُۥۖ قَالَ مَن يُحۡيِ ٱلۡعِظَٰمَ وَهِيَ رَمِيمٞ٧٨

    36:78

    waḍaraba lanā mathalan wanasiya khalqahu qāla man yuḥ'yī l-ʿiẓāma wahiya ramīmun

    And he presents for Us an example and forgets his [own] creation. He says, "Who will give life to bones while they are disintegrated?"

  52. قُلۡ يُحۡيِيهَا ٱلَّذِيٓ أَنشَأَهَآ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٖۖ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ خَلۡقٍ عَلِيمٌ٧٩

    36:79

    qul yuḥ'yīhā alladhī ansha-ahā awwala marratin wahuwa bikulli khalqin ʿalīmun

    Say, "He will give them life who produced them the first time; and He is, of all creation, Knowing."

  53. ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلشَّجَرِ ٱلۡأَخۡضَرِ نَارٗا فَإِذَآ أَنتُم مِّنۡهُ تُوقِدُونَ٨٠

    36:80

    alladhī jaʿala lakum mina l-shajari l-akhḍari nāran fa-idhā antum min'hu tūqidūna

    [It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite.

  54. أَوَلَيۡسَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ بِقَٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يَخۡلُقَ مِثۡلَهُمۚ بَلَىٰ وَهُوَ ٱلۡخَلَّٰقُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ٨١

    36:81

    awalaysa alladhī khalaqa l-samāwāti wal-arḍa biqādirin ʿalā an yakhluqa mith'lahum balā wahuwa l-khalāqu l-ʿalīmu

    Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them? Yes, [it is so]; and He is the Knowing Creator.

  55. إِنَّمَآ أَمۡرُهُۥٓ إِذَآ أَرَادَ شَيۡـًٔا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ٨٢

    36:82

    innamā amruhu idhā arāda shayan an yaqūla lahu kun fayakūnu

    His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is.

  56. فَسُبۡحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِهِۦ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ٨٣

    36:83

    37:67

    37:72

    walaqad arsalnā fīhim mundhirīna

  74. إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ٧٤

    37:74

    illā ʿibāda l-lahi l-mukh'laṣīna

    But not the chosen servants of Allāh.

  75. وَلَقَدۡ نَادَىٰنَا نُوحٞ فَلَنِعۡمَ ٱلۡمُجِيبُونَ٧٥

    37:75

    37:78

    wataraknā ʿalayhi fī l-ākhirīna

    37:79

    salāmun ʿalā nūḥin fī l-ʿālamīna

    37:80

    innā kadhālika najzī l-muḥ'sinīna

    Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

  81. إِنَّهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ٨١

    37:81

    innahu min ʿibādinā l-mu'minīna

    Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.

  82. ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ٨٢

    37:82

    thumma aghraqnā l-ākharīna

    Then We drowned the others [i.e., disbelievers].

    37:83

    wa-inna min shīʿatihi la-ib'rāhīma

    And indeed, among his kind was Abraham,

  84. إِذۡ جَآءَ رَبَّهُۥ بِقَلۡبٖ سَلِيمٍ٨٤

    37:84

    idh jāa rabbahu biqalbin salīmin

    When he came to his Lord with a sound heart

  85. إِذۡ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوۡمِهِۦ مَاذَا تَعۡبُدُونَ٨٥

    37:85

    idh qāla li-abīhi waqawmihi mādhā taʿbudūna

    [And] when he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?

  86. أَئِفۡكًا ءَالِهَةٗ دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ٨٦

    37:86

    a-if'kan ālihatan dūna l-lahi turīdūna

    Is it falsehood [as] gods other than Allāh you desire?

  87. فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ٨٧

    37:87

    famā ẓannukum birabbi l-ʿālamīna

    Then what is your thought about the Lord of the worlds?"

  88. فَنَظَرَ نَظۡرَةٗ فِي ٱلنُّجُومِ٨٨

    37:88

    fanaẓara naẓratan fī l-nujūmi

    And he cast a look at the stars.

  89. فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَقِيمٞ٨٩

    37:89

    faqāla innī saqīmun

    And said, "Indeed, I am [about to be] ill."

  90. فَتَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ مُدۡبِرِينَ٩٠

    37:90

    fatawallaw ʿanhu mud'birīna

    So they turned away from him, departing.

  91. فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِهِمۡ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأۡكُلُونَ٩١

    37:91

    farāgha ilā ālihatihim faqāla alā takulūna

    Then he turned to their gods and said, "Do you not eat?

  92. مَا لَكُمۡ لَا تَنطِقُونَ٩٢

    37:92

    mā lakum lā tanṭiqūna

    What is [wrong] with you that you do not speak?".

  93. فَرَاغَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ضَرۡبَۢا بِٱلۡيَمِينِ٩٣

    37:93

    farāgha ʿalayhim ḍarban bil-yamīni

    And he turned upon them a blow with [his] right hand.

  94. فَأَقۡبَلُوٓاْ إِلَيۡهِ يَزِفُّونَ٩٤

    37:94

    fa-aqbalū ilayhi yaziffūna

    Then they [i.e., the people] came toward him, hastening.

  95. قَالَ أَتَعۡبُدُونَ مَا تَنۡحِتُونَ٩٥

    37:95

    qāla ataʿbudūna mā tanḥitūna

    He said, "Do you worship that which you [yourselves] carve,

  96. وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ٩٦

    37:96

    wal-lahu khalaqakum wamā taʿmalūna

    While Allāh created you and that which you do?"

  97. قَالُواْ ٱبۡنُواْ لَهُۥ بُنۡيَٰنٗا فَأَلۡقُوهُ فِي ٱلۡجَحِيمِ٩٧

    37:97

    qālū ib'nū lahu bun'yānan fa-alqūhu fī l-jaḥīmi

    They said, "Construct for him a structure [i.e., furnace] and throw him into the burning fire."

  98. فَأَرَادُواْ بِهِۦ كَيۡدٗا فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُمُ ٱلۡأَسۡفَلِينَ٩٨

    37:98

    fa-arādū bihi kaydan fajaʿalnāhumu l-asfalīna

    And they intended for him a plan [i.e., harm], but We made them the most debased.

  99. وَقَالَ إِنِّي ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّي سَيَهۡدِينِ٩٩

    37:99

    waqāla innī dhāhibun ilā rabbī sayahdīni

    And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.

  100. رَبِّ هَبۡ لِي مِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ١٠٠

    37:100

    rabbi hab lī mina l-ṣāliḥīna

    My Lord, grant me [a child] from among the righteous."

  101. فَبَشَّرۡنَٰهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ حَلِيمٖ١٠١

    37:101

    fabasharnāhu bighulāmin ḥalīmin

    So We gave him good tidings of a forbearing boy.

  102. فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ ٱلسَّعۡيَ قَالَ يَٰبُنَيَّ إِنِّيٓ أَرَىٰ فِي ٱلۡمَنَامِ أَنِّيٓ أَذۡبَحُكَ فَٱنظُرۡ مَاذَا تَرَىٰۚ قَالَ يَٰٓأَبَتِ ٱفۡعَلۡ مَا تُؤۡمَرُۖ سَتَجِدُنِيٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ١٠٢

    37:102

    falammā balagha maʿahu l-saʿya qāla yābunayya innī arā fī l-manāmi annī adhbaḥuka fa-unẓur mādhā tarā qāla yāabati if'ʿal mā tu'maru satajidunī in shāa l-lahu mina l-ṣābirīna

    And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, "O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think." He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allāh wills, of the steadfast."

  103. فَلَمَّآ أَسۡلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلۡجَبِينِ١٠٣

    37:103

    falammā aslamā watallahu lil'jabīni

    And when they had both submitted and he put him down upon his forehead,

  104. وَنَٰدَيۡنَٰهُ أَن يَٰٓإِبۡرَٰهِيمُ١٠٤

    37:104

    wanādaynāhu an yāib'rāhīmu

    We called to him, "O Abraham,

  105. قَدۡ صَدَّقۡتَ ٱلرُّءۡيَآۚ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ١٠٥

    37:105

    qad ṣaddaqta l-ru'yā innā kadhālika najzī l-muḥ'sinīna

    You have fulfilled the vision." Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

  106. إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلۡبَلَٰٓؤُاْ ٱلۡمُبِينُ١٠٦

    37:106

    inna hādhā lahuwa l-balāu l-mubīnu

    Indeed, this was the clear trial.

  107. وَفَدَيۡنَٰهُ بِذِبۡحٍ عَظِيمٖ١٠٧

    37:107

    wafadaynāhu bidhib'ḥin ʿaẓīmin

    And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice,

  108. وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ١٠٨

    37:108

    wataraknā ʿalayhi fī l-ākhirīna

    And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:

  109. سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ١٠٩

    37:109

    salāmun ʿalā ib'rāhīma

    "Peace upon Abraham."

  110. كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ١١٠

    37:110

    kadhālika najzī l-muḥ'sinīna

    Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

  111. إِنَّهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ١١١

    37:111

    innahu min ʿibādinā l-mu'minīna

    Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.

  112. وَبَشَّرۡنَٰهُ بِإِسۡحَٰقَ نَبِيّٗا مِّنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ١١٢

    37:112

    wabasharnāhu bi-is'ḥāqa nabiyyan mina l-ṣāliḥīna

    And We gave him good tidings of Isaac, a prophet from among the righteous.

  113. وَبَٰرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ وَعَلَىٰٓ إِسۡحَٰقَۚ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحۡسِنٞ وَظَالِمٞ لِّنَفۡسِهِۦ مُبِينٞ١١٣

    37:113

    wabāraknā ʿalayhi waʿalā is'ḥāqa wamin dhurriyyatihimā muḥ'sinun waẓālimun linafsihi mubīnun

    And We blessed him and Isaac. But among their descendants is the doer of good and the clearly unjust to himself [i.e., sinner].

  114. وَلَقَدۡ مَنَنَّا عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ١١٤

    37:114

    walaqad manannā ʿalā mūsā wahārūna

    And We did certainly confer favor upon Moses and Aaron.

  115. وَنَجَّيۡنَٰهُمَا وَقَوۡمَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلۡكَرۡبِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ١١٥

    37:115

    wanajjaynāhumā waqawmahumā mina l-karbi l-ʿaẓīmi

    And We saved them and their people from the great affliction,

  116. وَنَصَرۡنَٰهُمۡ فَكَانُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ١١٦

    37:116

    wanaṣarnāhum fakānū humu l-ghālibīna

    And We supported them so it was they who overcame.

  117. وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُمَا ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ ٱلۡمُسۡتَبِينَ١١٧

    37:117

    waātaynāhumā l-kitāba l-mus'tabīna

    And We gave them the explicit Scripture [i.e., the Torah],

  118. وَهَدَيۡنَٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمَ١١٨

    37:118

    wahadaynāhumā l-ṣirāṭa l-mus'taqīma

    And We guided them on the straight path.

  119. وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمَا فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ١١٩

    37:119

    wataraknā ʿalayhimā fī l-ākhirīna

    And We left for them [favorable mention] among later generations:

  120. سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ١٢٠

    37:120

    salāmun ʿalā mūsā wahārūna

    "Peace upon Moses and Aaron."

  121. إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ١٢١

    37:121

    innā kadhālika najzī l-muḥ'sinīna

    Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

  122. إِنَّهُمَا مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ١٢٢

    37:122

    innahumā min ʿibādinā l-mu'minīna

    Indeed, they were of Our believing servants.

  123. وَإِنَّ إِلۡيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ١٢٣

    37:123

    wa-inna il'yāsa lamina l-mur'salīna

    And indeed, Elias was from among the messengers,

  124. إِذۡ قَالَ لِقَوۡمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ١٢٤

    37:124

    idh qāla liqawmihi alā tattaqūna

    When he said to his people, "Will you not fear Allāh?

  125. أَتَدۡعُونَ بَعۡلٗا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحۡسَنَ ٱلۡخَٰلِقِينَ١٢٥

    37:125

    atadʿūna baʿlan watadharūna aḥsana l-khāliqīna

    Do you call upon Baʿl and leave the best of creators -

  126. ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمۡ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ١٢٦

    37:126

    al-laha rabbakum warabba ābāikumu l-awalīna

    Allāh, your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers?"

  127. فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُونَ١٢٧

    37:127

    fakadhabūhu fa-innahum lamuḥ'ḍarūna

    And they denied him, so indeed, they will be brought [for punishment],

  128. إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ١٢٨

    37:128

    illā ʿibāda l-lahi l-mukh'laṣīna

    Except the chosen servants of Allāh.

  129. وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ١٢٩

    37:129

    wataraknā ʿalayhi fī l-ākhirīna

    And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:

  130. سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلۡ يَاسِينَ١٣٠

    37:130

    salāmun ʿalā il yāsīna

    "Peace upon Elias."

  131. إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ١٣١

    37:131

    innā kadhālika najzī l-muḥ'sinīna

    Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

  132. إِنَّهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ١٣٢

    37:132

    innahu min ʿibādinā l-mu'minīna

    Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.

  133. وَإِنَّ لُوطٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ١٣٣

    37:133

    wa-inna lūṭan lamina l-mur'salīna

    And indeed, Lot was among the messengers.

  134. إِذۡ نَجَّيۡنَٰهُ وَأَهۡلَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ١٣٤

    37:134

    idh najjaynāhu wa-ahlahu ajmaʿīna

    [So mention] when We saved him and his family, all,

  135. إِلَّا عَجُوزٗا فِي ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ١٣٥

    37:135

    illā ʿajūzan fī l-ghābirīna

    Except an old woman [i.e., his wife] among those who remained [with the evildoers].

  136. ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ١٣٦

    37:136

    thumma dammarnā l-ākharīna

    Then We destroyed the others.

  137. وَإِنَّكُمۡ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيۡهِم مُّصۡبِحِينَ١٣٧

    37:137

    wa-innakum latamurrūna ʿalayhim muṣ'biḥīna

    And indeed, you pass by them in the morning

  138. وَبِٱلَّيۡلِۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ١٣٨

    37:138

    wabi-al-layli afalā taʿqilūna

    And at night. Then will you not use reason?

  139. وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ١٣٩

    37:139

    wa-inna yūnusa lamina l-mur'salīna

    And indeed, Jonah was among the messengers.

  140. إِذۡ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ١٤٠

    37:140

    idh abaqa ilā l-ful'ki l-mashḥūni

    [Mention] when he ran away to the laden ship.

  141. فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُدۡحَضِينَ١٤١

    37:141

    fasāhama fakāna mina l-mud'ḥaḍīna

    And he drew lots and was among the losers.

  142. فَٱلۡتَقَمَهُ ٱلۡحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٞ١٤٢

    37:142

    fal-taqamahu l-ḥūtu wahuwa mulīmun

    Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy.

  143. فَلَوۡلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحِينَ١٤٣

    37:143

    falawlā annahu kāna mina l-musabiḥīna

    And had he not been of those who exalt Allāh,

  144. لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطۡنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ١٤٤

    37:144

    lalabitha fī baṭnihi ilā yawmi yub'ʿathūna

    He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected.

  145. ۞ فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٞ١٤٥

    37:145

    fanabadhnāhu bil-ʿarāi wahuwa saqīmun

    But We threw him onto the open shore while he was ill.

  146. وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةٗ مِّن يَقۡطِينٖ١٤٦

    37:146

    wa-anbatnā ʿalayhi shajaratan min yaqṭīnin

    And We caused to grow over him a gourd vine.

  147. وَأَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِاْئَةِ أَلۡفٍ أَوۡ يَزِيدُونَ١٤٧

    37:147

    wa-arsalnāhu ilā mi-ati alfin aw yazīdūna

    And We sent him to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more.

  148. فَـَٔامَنُواْ فَمَتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ إِلَىٰ حِينٖ١٤٨

    37:148

    faāmanū famattaʿnāhum ilā ḥīnin

    And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.

  149. فَٱسۡتَفۡتِهِمۡ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلۡبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلۡبَنُونَ١٤٩

    37:149

    fa-is'taftihim alirabbika l-banātu walahumu l-banūna

    So inquire of them, [O Muḥammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?

  150. أَمۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثٗا وَهُمۡ شَٰهِدُونَ١٥٠

    37:150

    am khalaqnā l-malāikata ināthan wahum shāhidūna

    Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?"

  151. أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنۡ إِفۡكِهِمۡ لَيَقُولُونَ١٥١

    37:151

    alā innahum min if'kihim layaqūlūna

    Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say,

  152. وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَكَٰذِبُونَ١٥٢

    37:152

    walada l-lahu wa-innahum lakādhibūna

    "Allāh has begotten," and indeed, they are liars.

  153. أَصۡطَفَى ٱلۡبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلۡبَنِينَ١٥٣

    37:153

    aṣṭafā l-banāti ʿalā l-banīna

    Has He chosen daughters over sons?

  154. مَا لَكُمۡ كَيۡفَ تَحۡكُمُونَ١٥٤

    37:154

    mā lakum kayfa taḥkumūna

    What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?

  155. أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ١٥٥

    37:155

    afalā tadhakkarūna

    Then will you not be reminded?

  156. أَمۡ لَكُمۡ سُلۡطَٰنٞ مُّبِينٞ١٥٦

    37:156

    am lakum sul'ṭānun mubīnun

    Or do you have a clear authority?

  157. فَأۡتُواْ بِكِتَٰبِكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ١٥٧

    37:157

    fatū bikitābikum in kuntum ṣādiqīna

    Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.

  158. وَجَعَلُواْ بَيۡنَهُۥ وَبَيۡنَ ٱلۡجِنَّةِ نَسَبٗاۚ وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمَتِ ٱلۡجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُونَ١٥٨

    37:158

    wajaʿalū baynahu wabayna l-jinati nasaban walaqad ʿalimati l-jinatu innahum lamuḥ'ḍarūna

    And they have made [i.e., claimed] between Him and the jinn a lineage, but the jinn have already known that they [who made such claims] will be brought [to punishment].

  159. سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ١٥٩

    37:159

    sub'ḥāna l-lahi ʿammā yaṣifūna

    Exalted is Allāh above what they describe,

  160. إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ١٦٠

    37:160

    illā ʿibāda l-lahi l-mukh'laṣīna

    Except the chosen servants of Allāh [who do not share in that sin].

  161. فَإِنَّكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡبُدُونَ١٦١

    37:161

    fa-innakum wamā taʿbudūna

    So indeed, you [disbelievers] and whatever you worship,

  162. مَآ أَنتُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ بِفَٰتِنِينَ١٦٢

    37:162

    mā antum ʿalayhi bifātinīna

    You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him

  163. إِلَّا مَنۡ هُوَ صَالِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ١٦٣

    37:163

    illā man huwa ṣāli l-jaḥīmi

    Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire.

  164. وَمَا مِنَّآ إِلَّا لَهُۥ مَقَامٞ مَّعۡلُومٞ١٦٤

    37:164

    wamā minnā illā lahu maqāmun maʿlūmun

    [The angels say], "There is not among us any except that he has a known position.

  165. وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ١٦٥

    37:165

    wa-innā lanaḥnu l-ṣāfūna

    And indeed, we are those who line up [for prayer].

  166. وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحُونَ١٦٦

    37:166

    wa-innā lanaḥnu l-musabiḥūna

    And indeed, we are those who exalt Allāh."

  167. وَإِن كَانُواْ لَيَقُولُونَ١٦٧

    37:167

    wa-in kānū layaqūlūna

    And indeed, they [i.e., the disbelievers] used to say,

  168. لَوۡ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكۡرٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ١٦٨

    37:168

    law anna ʿindanā dhik'ran mina l-awalīna

    "If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,

  169. لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ١٦٩

    37:169

    lakunnā ʿibāda l-lahi l-mukh'laṣīna

    We would have been the chosen servants of Allāh."

  170. فَكَفَرُواْ بِهِۦۖ فَسَوۡفَ يَعۡلَمُونَ١٧٠

    37:170

    fakafarū bihi fasawfa yaʿlamūna

    But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.

  171. وَلَقَدۡ سَبَقَتۡ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ١٧١

    37:171

    walaqad sabaqat kalimatunā liʿibādinā l-mur'salīna

    And Our word [i.e., decree] has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,

  172. إِنَّهُمۡ لَهُمُ ٱلۡمَنصُورُونَ١٧٢

    37:172

    innahum lahumu l-manṣūrūna

    [That] indeed, they would be those given victory

  173. وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبُونَ١٧٣

    37:173

    wa-inna jundanā lahumu l-ghālibūna

  174. فَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ١٧٤

    37:174

    fatawalla ʿanhum ḥattā ḥīnin

    So, [O Muḥammad], leave them for a time.

  175. وَأَبۡصِرۡهُمۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ١٧٥

    37:175

    wa-abṣir'hum fasawfa yub'ṣirūna

    And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.

  176. أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ١٧٦

    37:176

    afabiʿadhābinā yastaʿjilūna

    Then for Our punishment are they impatient?

  177. فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمۡ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ١٧٧

    37:177

    fa-idhā nazala bisāḥatihim fasāa ṣabāḥu l-mundharīna

    But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.

  178. وَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ١٧٨

    37:178

    watawalla ʿanhum ḥattā ḥīnin

    And leave them for a time.

  179. وَأَبۡصِرۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ١٧٩

    37:179

    wa-abṣir fasawfa yub'ṣirūna

    And see, for they are going to see.

  180. سُبۡحَٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلۡعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ١٨٠

    37:180

    sub'ḥāna rabbika rabbi l-ʿizati ʿammā yaṣifūna

    Exalted is your Lord, the Lord of might, above what they describe.

  181. وَسَلَٰمٌ عَلَى ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ١٨١

    37:181

    wasalāmun ʿalā l-mur'salīna

    And peace upon the messengers.

  182. وَٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ١٨٢

    37:182

    wal-ḥamdu lillahi rabbi l-ʿālamīna

    And praise to Allāh, Lord of the worlds.

    38:21

    wahal atāka naba-u l-khaṣmi idh tasawwarū l-miḥ'rāba

    And has there come to you the news of the adversaries, when they climbed over the wall of [his] prayer chamber -

  22. إِذۡ دَخَلُواْ عَلَىٰ دَاوُۥدَ فَفَزِعَ مِنۡهُمۡۖ قَالُواْ لَا تَخَفۡۖ خَصۡمَانِ بَغَىٰ بَعۡضُنَا عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖ فَٱحۡكُم بَيۡنَنَا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَا تُشۡطِطۡ وَٱهۡدِنَآ إِلَىٰ سَوَآءِ ٱلصِّرَٰطِ٢٢

    When they entered upon David and he was alarmed by them? They said, "Fear not. [We are] two adversaries, one of whom has wronged the other, so judge between us with truth and do not exceed [it] and guide us to the sound path.

  23. إِنَّ هَٰذَآ أَخِي لَهُۥ تِسۡعٞ وَتِسۡعُونَ نَعۡجَةٗ وَلِيَ نَعۡجَةٞ وَٰحِدَةٞ فَقَالَ أَكۡفِلۡنِيهَا وَعَزَّنِي فِي ٱلۡخِطَابِ٢٣

    38:23

    inna hādhā akhī lahu tis'ʿun watis'ʿūna naʿjatan waliya naʿjatun wāḥidatun faqāla akfil'nīhā waʿazzanī fī l-khiṭābi

    Indeed this, my brother, has ninety-nine ewes, and I have one ewe; so he said, 'Entrust her to me,' and he overpowered me in speech."

  24. قَالَ لَقَدۡ ظَلَمَكَ بِسُؤَالِ نَعۡجَتِكَ إِلَىٰ نِعَاجِهِۦۖ وَإِنَّ كَثِيرٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡخُلَطَآءِ لَيَبۡغِي بَعۡضُهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٍ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَقَلِيلٞ مَّا هُمۡۗ وَظَنَّ دَاوُۥدُ أَنَّمَا فَتَنَّٰهُ فَٱسۡتَغۡفَرَ رَبَّهُۥ وَخَرَّۤ رَاكِعٗاۤ وَأَنَابَ۩٢٤

    38:24

    qāla laqad ẓalamaka bisuāli naʿjatika ilā niʿājihi wa-inna kathīran mina l-khulaṭāi layabghī baʿḍuhum ʿalā baʿḍin illā alladhīna āmanū waʿamilū l-ṣāliḥāti waqalīlun mā hum waẓanna dāwūdu annamā fatannāhu fa-is'taghfara rabbahu wakharra rākiʿan wa-anāba

    [David] said, "He has certainly wronged you in demanding your ewe [in addition] to his ewes. And indeed, many associates oppress one another, except for those who believe and do righteous deeds - and few are they." And David became certain that We had tried him, and he asked forgiveness of his Lord and fell down bowing [in prostration] and turned in repentance [to Allāh].

  25. فَغَفَرۡنَا لَهُۥ ذَٰلِكَۖ وَإِنَّ لَهُۥ عِندَنَا لَزُلۡفَىٰ وَحُسۡنَ مَـَٔابٖ٢٥

    38:25

    faghafarnā lahu dhālika wa-inna lahu ʿindanā lazul'fā waḥus'na maābin

    So We forgave him that; and indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return.

  26. يَٰدَاوُۥدُ إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَٰكَ خَلِيفَةٗ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَٱحۡكُم بَيۡنَ ٱلنَّاسِ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَا تَتَّبِعِ ٱلۡهَوَىٰ فَيُضِلَّكَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَضِلُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٞ شَدِيدُۢ بِمَا نَسُواْ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡحِسَابِ٢٦

    38:26

    yādāwūdu innā jaʿalnāka khalīfatan fī l-arḍi fa-uḥ'kum bayna l-nāsi bil-ḥaqi walā tattabiʿi l-hawā fayuḍillaka ʿan sabīli l-lahi inna alladhīna yaḍillūna ʿan sabīli l-lahi lahum ʿadhābun shadīdun bimā nasū yawma l-ḥisābi

    [We said], "O David, indeed We have made you a successor upon the earth, so judge between the people in truth and do not follow [your own] desire, as it will lead you astray from the way of Allāh." Indeed, those who go astray from the way of Allāh will have a severe punishment for having forgotten the Day of Account.

  27. وَمَا خَلَقۡنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا بَٰطِلٗاۚ ذَٰلِكَ ظَنُّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْۚ فَوَيۡلٞ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ٢٧

    38:27

    wamā khalaqnā l-samāa wal-arḍa wamā baynahumā bāṭilan dhālika ẓannu alladhīna kafarū fawaylun lilladhīna kafarū mina l-nāri

    And We did not create the heaven and the earth and that between them aimlessly. That is the assumption of those who disbelieve, so woe to those who disbelieve from the Fire.

  28. أَمۡ نَجۡعَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ كَٱلۡمُفۡسِدِينَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَمۡ نَجۡعَلُ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ كَٱلۡفُجَّارِ٢٨

    38:28

    am najʿalu alladhīna āmanū waʿamilū l-ṣāliḥāti kal-muf'sidīna fī l-arḍi am najʿalu l-mutaqīna kal-fujāri

    Or should We treat those who believe and do righteous deeds like corrupters in the land? Or should We treat those who fear Allāh like the wicked?

  29. كِتَٰبٌ أَنزَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَيۡكَ مُبَٰرَكٞ لِّيَدَّبَّرُوٓاْ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ وَلِيَتَذَكَّرَ أُوْلُواْ ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ٢٩

    38:29

    kitābun anzalnāhu ilayka mubārakun liyaddabbarū āyātihi waliyatadhakkara ulū l-albābi

    [This is] a blessed Book which We have revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], that they might reflect upon its verses and that those of understanding would be reminded.

  30. وَوَهَبۡنَا لِدَاوُۥدَ سُلَيۡمَٰنَۚ نِعۡمَ ٱلۡعَبۡدُ إِنَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٌ٣٠

    38:30

    wawahabnā lidāwūda sulaymāna niʿ'ma l-ʿabdu innahu awwābun

    And to David We gave Solomon. An excellent servant, indeed he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allāh].

  31. إِذۡ عُرِضَ عَلَيۡهِ بِٱلۡعَشِيِّ ٱلصَّٰفِنَٰتُ ٱلۡجِيَادُ٣١

    38:31

    idh ʿuriḍa ʿalayhi bil-ʿashiyi l-ṣāfinātu l-jiyādu

    [Mention] when there were exhibited before him in the afternoon the poised [standing] racehorses.

  32. فَقَالَ إِنِّيٓ أَحۡبَبۡتُ حُبَّ ٱلۡخَيۡرِ عَن ذِكۡرِ رَبِّي حَتَّىٰ تَوَارَتۡ بِٱلۡحِجَابِ٣٢

    38:32

    faqāla innī aḥbabtu ḥubba l-khayri ʿan dhik'ri rabbī ḥattā tawārat bil-ḥijābi

    And he said, "Indeed, I gave preference to the love of good [things] over the remembrance of my Lord until it [i.e., the sun] disappeared into the curtain [of darkness]."

  33. رُدُّوهَا عَلَيَّۖ فَطَفِقَ مَسۡحَۢا بِٱلسُّوقِ وَٱلۡأَعۡنَاقِ٣٣

    38:33

    ruddūhā ʿalayya faṭafiqa masḥan bil-sūqi wal-aʿnāqi

    [He said], "Return them to me," and set about striking [their] legs and necks.

  34. وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا سُلَيۡمَٰنَ وَأَلۡقَيۡنَا عَلَىٰ كُرۡسِيِّهِۦ جَسَدٗا ثُمَّ أَنَابَ٣٤

    38:34

    walaqad fatannā sulaymāna wa-alqaynā ʿalā kur'siyyihi jasadan thumma anāba

    And We certainly tried Solomon and placed on his throne a body; then he returned.

  35. قَالَ رَبِّ ٱغۡفِرۡ لِي وَهَبۡ لِي مُلۡكٗا لَّا يَنۢبَغِي لِأَحَدٖ مِّنۢ بَعۡدِيٓۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡوَهَّابُ٣٥

    38:35

    qāla rabbi igh'fir lī wahab lī mul'kan lā yanbaghī li-aḥadin min baʿdī innaka anta l-wahābu

    He said, "My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as will not belong to anyone after me. Indeed, You are the Bestower."

  36. فَسَخَّرۡنَا لَهُ ٱلرِّيحَ تَجۡرِي بِأَمۡرِهِۦ رُخَآءً حَيۡثُ أَصَابَ٣٦

    38:36

    fasakharnā lahu l-rīḥa tajrī bi-amrihi rukhāan ḥaythu aṣāba

    So We subjected to him the wind blowing by his command, gently, wherever he directed,

  37. وَٱلشَّيَٰطِينَ كُلَّ بَنَّآءٖ وَغَوَّاصٖ٣٧

    38:37

    wal-shayāṭīna kulla bannāin waghawwāṣin

    And [also] the devils [of jinn] - every builder and diver.

  38. وَءَاخَرِينَ مُقَرَّنِينَ فِي ٱلۡأَصۡفَادِ٣٨

    38:38

    waākharīna muqarranīna fī l-aṣfādi

    And others bound together in irons.

  39. هَٰذَا عَطَآؤُنَا فَٱمۡنُنۡ أَوۡ أَمۡسِكۡ بِغَيۡرِ حِسَابٖ٣٩

    38:39

    hādhā ʿaṭāunā fa-um'nun aw amsik bighayri ḥisābin

    [We said], "This is Our gift, so grant or withhold without account."

    38:40

    wa-inna lahu ʿindanā lazul'fā waḥus'na maābin

    And indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return.

  41. وَٱذۡكُرۡ عَبۡدَنَآ أَيُّوبَ إِذۡ نَادَىٰ رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنِّي مَسَّنِيَ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ بِنُصۡبٖ وَعَذَابٍ٤١

    wa-udh'kur ʿabdanā ayyūba idh nādā rabbahu annī massaniya l-shayṭānu binuṣ'bin waʿadhābin

    And remember Our servant Job, when he called to his Lord, "Indeed, Satan has touched me with hardship and torment."

    38:42

    ur'kuḍ birij'lika hādhā mugh'tasalun bāridun washarābun

    [So he was told], "Strike [the ground] with your foot; this is a [spring for a] cool bath and drink."

  43. وَوَهَبۡنَا لَهُۥٓ أَهۡلَهُۥ وَمِثۡلَهُم مَّعَهُمۡ رَحۡمَةٗ مِّنَّا وَذِكۡرَىٰ لِأُوْلِي ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ٤٣

    38:43

    wawahabnā lahu ahlahu wamith'lahum maʿahum raḥmatan minnā wadhik'rā li-ulī l-albābi

    And We granted him his family and a like [number] with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for those of understanding.

  44. وَخُذۡ بِيَدِكَ ضِغۡثٗا فَٱضۡرِب بِّهِۦ وَلَا تَحۡنَثۡۗ إِنَّا وَجَدۡنَٰهُ صَابِرٗاۚ نِّعۡمَ ٱلۡعَبۡدُ إِنَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٞ٤٤

    wakhudh biyadika ḍigh'than fa-iḍ'rib bihi walā taḥnath innā wajadnāhu ṣābiran niʿ'ma l-ʿabdu innahu awwābun

    [We said], "And take in your hand a bunch [of grass] and strike with it and do not break your oath." Indeed, We found him patient, an excellent servant. Indeed, he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allāh].

  45. وَٱذۡكُرۡ عِبَٰدَنَآ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَ أُوْلِي ٱلۡأَيۡدِي وَٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرِ٤٥

    38:45

    wa-udh'kur ʿibādanā ib'rāhīma wa-is'ḥāqa wayaʿqūba ulī l-aydī wal-abṣāri

    And remember Our servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - those of strength and [religious] vision.

    38:46

    innā akhlaṣnāhum bikhāliṣatin dhik'rā l-dāri

    Indeed, We chose them for an exclusive quality: remembrance of the home [of the Hereafter].

  47. وَإِنَّهُمۡ عِندَنَا لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُصۡطَفَيۡنَ ٱلۡأَخۡيَارِ٤٧

    38:47

    wa-innahum ʿindanā lamina l-muṣ'ṭafayna l-akhyāri

    And indeed they are, to Us, among the chosen and outstanding.

  48. وَٱذۡكُرۡ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَٱلۡيَسَعَ وَذَا ٱلۡكِفۡلِۖ وَكُلّٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَخۡيَارِ٤٨

    38:48

    wa-udh'kur is'māʿīla wal-yasaʿa wadhā l-kif'li wakullun mina l-akhyāri

    And remember Ishmael, Elisha and Dhul-Kifl, and all are among the outstanding.

    38:49

    hādhā dhik'run wa-inna lil'muttaqīna laḥus'na maābin

    This is a reminder. And indeed, for the righteous is a good place of return -

  50. جَنَّٰتِ عَدۡنٖ مُّفَتَّحَةٗ لَّهُمُ ٱلۡأَبۡوَٰبُ٥٠

    38:50

    jannāti ʿadnin mufattaḥatan lahumu l-abwābu

    Gardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will be opened to them.

    inna hādhā lariz'qunā mā lahu min nafādin

    Indeed, this is Our provision; for it there is no depletion.

  55. هَٰذَاۚ وَإِنَّ لِلطَّٰغِينَ لَشَرَّ مَـَٔابٖ٥٥

    38:55

    hādhā wa-inna lilṭṭāghīna lasharra maābin

    This [is so]. But indeed, for the transgressors is an evil place of return -

  56. جَهَنَّمَ يَصۡلَوۡنَهَا فَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمِهَادُ٥٦

    38:56

    jahannama yaṣlawnahā fabi'sa l-mihādu

    Hell, which they will [enter to] burn, and wretched is the resting place.

    38:57

    hādhā falyadhūqūhu ḥamīmun waghassāqun

    38:58

    waākharu min shaklihi azwājun

  63. أَتَّخَذۡنَٰهُمۡ سِخۡرِيًّا أَمۡ زَاغَتۡ عَنۡهُمُ ٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرُ٦٣

    38:63

    attakhadhnāhum sikh'riyyan am zāghat ʿanhumu l-abṣāru

    Is it [because] we took them in ridicule, or has [our] vision turned away from them?"

  64. إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَحَقّٞ تَخَاصُمُ أَهۡلِ ٱلنَّارِ٦٤

    38:64

    inna dhālika laḥaqqun takhāṣumu ahli l-nāri

    Indeed, that is truth [i.e., reality] - the quarreling of the people of the Fire.

  65. قُلۡ إِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ مُنذِرٞۖ وَمَا مِنۡ إِلَٰهٍ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡوَٰحِدُ ٱلۡقَهَّارُ٦٥

    rabbu l-samāwāti wal-arḍi wamā baynahumā l-ʿazīzu l-ghafāru

    Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver."

  67. قُلۡ هُوَ نَبَؤٌاْ عَظِيمٌ٦٧

    38:67

    qul huwa naba-on ʿaẓīmun

    Say, "It is great news

  68. أَنتُمۡ عَنۡهُ مُعۡرِضُونَ٦٨

    38:68

    antum ʿanhu muʿ'riḍūna

    From which you turn away.

  69. مَا كَانَ لِيَ مِنۡ عِلۡمِۭ بِٱلۡمَلَإِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰٓ إِذۡ يَخۡتَصِمُونَ٦٩

    38:69

    in yūḥā ilayya illā annamā anā nadhīrun mubīnun

    It has not been revealed to me except that I am a clear warner."

  72. فَإِذَا سَوَّيۡتُهُۥ وَنَفَخۡتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُواْ لَهُۥ سَٰجِدِينَ٧٢

    38:72

    fa-idhā sawwaytuhu wanafakhtu fīhi min rūḥī faqaʿū lahu sājidīna

    Except Iblees; he was arrogant and became among the disbelievers.

    38:75

    qāla yāib'līsu mā manaʿaka an tasjuda limā khalaqtu biyadayya astakbarta am kunta mina l-ʿālīna

    [Allāh] said, "O Iblees, what prevented you from prostrating to that which I created with My hands? Were you arrogant [then], or were you [already] among the haughty?"

  76. قَالَ أَنَا۠ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡهُ خَلَقۡتَنِي مِن نَّارٖ وَخَلَقۡتَهُۥ مِن طِينٖ٧٦

    38:76

    qāla anā khayrun min'hu khalaqtanī min nārin wakhalaqtahu min ṭīnin

39. Surah Az-Zumarالزمر

The Troops, verses 1–31 of 75 · Read and listen in the app

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

  1. تَنزِيلُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡحَكِيمِ١

    39:1

    tanzīlu l-kitābi mina l-lahi l-ʿazīzi l-ḥakīmi

    The revelation of the Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] is from Allāh, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

  2. إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ فَٱعۡبُدِ ٱللَّهَ مُخۡلِصٗا لَّهُ ٱلدِّينَ٢

    39:2

    innā anzalnā ilayka l-kitāba bil-ḥaqi fa-uʿ'budi l-laha mukh'liṣan lahu l-dīna

    Indeed, We have sent down to you the Book, [O Muḥammad], in truth. So worship Allāh, [being] sincere to Him in religion.

  3. أَلَا لِلَّهِ ٱلدِّينُ ٱلۡخَالِصُۚ وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ أَوۡلِيَآءَ مَا نَعۡبُدُهُمۡ إِلَّا لِيُقَرِّبُونَآ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ زُلۡفَىٰٓ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَهُمۡ فِي مَا هُمۡ فِيهِ يَخۡتَلِفُونَۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهۡدِي مَنۡ هُوَ كَٰذِبٞ كَفَّارٞ٣

    39:3

    alā lillahi l-dīnu l-khāliṣu wa-alladhīna ittakhadhū min dūnihi awliyāa mā naʿbuduhum illā liyuqarribūnā ilā l-lahi zul'fā inna l-laha yaḥkumu baynahum fī mā hum fīhi yakhtalifūna inna l-laha lā yahdī man huwa kādhibun kaffārun

    Unquestionably, for Allāh is the pure religion. And those who take protectors besides Him [say], "We only worship them that they may bring us nearer to Allāh in position." Indeed, Allāh will judge between them concerning that over which they differ. Indeed, Allāh does not guide he who is a liar and [confirmed] disbeliever.

  4. لَّوۡ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ أَن يَتَّخِذَ وَلَدٗا لَّٱصۡطَفَىٰ مِمَّا يَخۡلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُۚ سُبۡحَٰنَهُۥۖ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡوَٰحِدُ ٱلۡقَهَّارُ٤

    39:4

    law arāda l-lahu an yattakhidha waladan la-iṣ'ṭafā mimmā yakhluqu mā yashāu sub'ḥānahu huwa l-lahu l-wāḥidu l-qahāru

    If Allāh had intended to take a son, He could have chosen from what He creates whatever He willed. Exalted is He; He is Allāh, the One, the Prevailing.

  5. خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ بِٱلۡحَقِّۖ يُكَوِّرُ ٱلَّيۡلَ عَلَى ٱلنَّهَارِ وَيُكَوِّرُ ٱلنَّهَارَ عَلَى ٱلَّيۡلِۖ وَسَخَّرَ ٱلشَّمۡسَ وَٱلۡقَمَرَۖ كُلّٞ يَجۡرِي لِأَجَلٖ مُّسَمًّىۗ أَلَا هُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡغَفَّٰرُ٥

    39:5

    khalaqa l-samāwāti wal-arḍa bil-ḥaqi yukawwiru al-layla ʿalā l-nahāri wayukawwiru l-nahāra ʿalā al-layli wasakhara l-shamsa wal-qamara kullun yajrī li-ajalin musamman alā huwa l-ʿazīzu l-ghafāru

    He created the heavens and earth in truth. He wraps the night over the day and wraps the day over the night and has subjected the sun and the moon, each running [its course] for a specified term. Unquestionably, He is the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver.

  6. خَلَقَكُم مِّن نَّفۡسٖ وَٰحِدَةٖ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنۡهَا زَوۡجَهَا وَأَنزَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمِ ثَمَٰنِيَةَ أَزۡوَٰجٖۚ يَخۡلُقُكُمۡ فِي بُطُونِ أُمَّهَٰتِكُمۡ خَلۡقٗا مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ خَلۡقٖ فِي ظُلُمَٰتٖ ثَلَٰثٖۚ ذَٰلِكُمُ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّكُمۡ لَهُ ٱلۡمُلۡكُۖ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُصۡرَفُونَ٦

    39:6

    khalaqakum min nafsin wāḥidatin thumma jaʿala min'hā zawjahā wa-anzala lakum mina l-anʿāmi thamāniyata azwājin yakhluqukum fī buṭūni ummahātikum khalqan min baʿdi khalqin fī ẓulumātin thalāthin dhālikumu l-lahu rabbukum lahu l-mul'ku lā ilāha illā huwa fa-annā tuṣ'rafūna

    He created you from one soul. Then He made from it its mate, and He produced for you from the grazing livestock eight mates. He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, within three darknesses. That is Allāh, your Lord; to Him belongs dominion. There is no deity except Him, so how are you averted?

  7. إِن تَكۡفُرُواْ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنكُمۡۖ وَلَا يَرۡضَىٰ لِعِبَادِهِ ٱلۡكُفۡرَۖ وَإِن تَشۡكُرُواْ يَرۡضَهُ لَكُمۡۗ وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٞ وِزۡرَ أُخۡرَىٰۚ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُم مَّرۡجِعُكُمۡ فَيُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَۚ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِيمُۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ٧

    39:7

    in takfurū fa-inna l-laha ghaniyyun ʿankum walā yarḍā liʿibādihi l-kuf'ra wa-in tashkurū yarḍahu lakum walā taziru wāziratun wiz'ra ukh'rā thumma ilā rabbikum marjiʿukum fayunabbi-ukum bimā kuntum taʿmalūna innahu ʿalīmun bidhāti l-ṣudūri

    If you disbelieve - indeed, Allāh is Free from need of you. And He does not approve for His servants disbelief. And if you are grateful, He approves [i.e., likes] it for you; and no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you about what you used to do. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.

  8. ۞ وَإِذَا مَسَّ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ ضُرّٞ دَعَا رَبَّهُۥ مُنِيبًا إِلَيۡهِ ثُمَّ إِذَا خَوَّلَهُۥ نِعۡمَةٗ مِّنۡهُ نَسِيَ مَا كَانَ يَدۡعُوٓاْ إِلَيۡهِ مِن قَبۡلُ وَجَعَلَ لِلَّهِ أَندَادٗا لِّيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦۚ قُلۡ تَمَتَّعۡ بِكُفۡرِكَ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلنَّارِ٨

    39:8

    wa-idhā massa l-insāna ḍurrun daʿā rabbahu munīban ilayhi thumma idhā khawwalahu niʿ'matan min'hu nasiya mā kāna yadʿū ilayhi min qablu wajaʿala lillahi andādan liyuḍilla ʿan sabīlihi qul tamattaʿ bikuf'rika qalīlan innaka min aṣḥābi l-nāri

    And when adversity touches man, he calls upon his Lord, turning to Him [alone]; then when He bestows on him a favor from Himself, he forgets Him whom he called upon before, and he attributes to Allāh equals to mislead [people] from His way. Say, "Enjoy your disbelief for a little; indeed, you are of the companions of the Fire."

  9. أَمَّنۡ هُوَ قَٰنِتٌ ءَانَآءَ ٱلَّيۡلِ سَاجِدٗا وَقَآئِمٗا يَحۡذَرُ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَيَرۡجُواْ رَحۡمَةَ رَبِّهِۦۗ قُلۡ هَلۡ يَسۡتَوِي ٱلَّذِينَ يَعۡلَمُونَ وَٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَۗ إِنَّمَا يَتَذَكَّرُ أُوْلُواْ ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ٩

    39:9

    amman huwa qānitun ānāa al-layli sājidan waqāiman yaḥdharu l-ākhirata wayarjū raḥmata rabbihi qul hal yastawī alladhīna yaʿlamūna wa-alladhīna lā yaʿlamūna innamā yatadhakkaru ulū l-albābi

    Is one who is devoutly obedient during periods of the night, prostrating and standing [in prayer], fearing the Hereafter and hoping for the mercy of his Lord, [like one who does not]? Say, "Are those who know equal to those who do not know?" Only they will remember [who are] people of understanding.

  10. قُلۡ يَٰعِبَادِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ رَبَّكُمۡۚ لِلَّذِينَ أَحۡسَنُواْ فِي هَٰذِهِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا حَسَنَةٞۗ وَأَرۡضُ ٱللَّهِ وَٰسِعَةٌۗ إِنَّمَا يُوَفَّى ٱلصَّٰبِرُونَ أَجۡرَهُم بِغَيۡرِ حِسَابٖ١٠

    39:10

    qul yāʿibādi alladhīna āmanū ittaqū rabbakum lilladhīna aḥsanū fī hādhihi l-dun'yā ḥasanatun wa-arḍu l-lahi wāsiʿatun innamā yuwaffā l-ṣābirūna ajrahum bighayri ḥisābin

    Say, "O My servants who have believed, fear your Lord. For those who do good in this world is good, and the earth of Allāh is spacious. Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account [i.e., limit]."

  11. قُلۡ إِنِّيٓ أُمِرۡتُ أَنۡ أَعۡبُدَ ٱللَّهَ مُخۡلِصٗا لَّهُ ٱلدِّينَ١١

    39:11

    qul innī umir'tu an aʿbuda l-laha mukh'liṣan lahu l-dīna

    Say, [O Muḥammad], "Indeed, I have been commanded to worship Allāh, [being] sincere to Him in religion.

  12. وَأُمِرۡتُ لِأَنۡ أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ ٱلۡمُسۡلِمِينَ١٢

    39:12

    wa-umir'tu li-an akūna awwala l-mus'limīna

    And I have been commanded to be the first [among you] of the Muslims."

  13. قُلۡ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ إِنۡ عَصَيۡتُ رَبِّي عَذَابَ يَوۡمٍ عَظِيمٖ١٣

    39:13

    qul innī akhāfu in ʿaṣaytu rabbī ʿadhāba yawmin ʿaẓīmin

    Say, "Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."

  14. قُلِ ٱللَّهَ أَعۡبُدُ مُخۡلِصٗا لَّهُۥ دِينِي١٤

    39:14

    quli l-laha aʿbudu mukh'liṣan lahu dīnī

    Say, "Allāh [alone] do I worship, sincere to Him in my religion,

  15. فَٱعۡبُدُواْ مَا شِئۡتُم مِّن دُونِهِۦۗ قُلۡ إِنَّ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓاْ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَأَهۡلِيهِمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۗ أَلَا ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡخُسۡرَانُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ١٥

    39:15

    fa-uʿ'budū mā shi'tum min dūnihi qul inna l-khāsirīna alladhīna khasirū anfusahum wa-ahlīhim yawma l-qiyāmati alā dhālika huwa l-khus'rānu l-mubīnu

    So worship what you will besides Him." Say, "Indeed, the losers are the ones who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, that is the manifest loss."

  16. لَهُم مِّن فَوۡقِهِمۡ ظُلَلٞ مِّنَ ٱلنَّارِ وَمِن تَحۡتِهِمۡ ظُلَلٞۚ ذَٰلِكَ يُخَوِّفُ ٱللَّهُ بِهِۦ عِبَادَهُۥۚ يَٰعِبَادِ فَٱتَّقُونِ١٦

    39:16

    lahum min fawqihim ẓulalun mina l-nāri wamin taḥtihim ẓulalun dhālika yukhawwifu l-lahu bihi ʿibādahu yāʿibādi fa-ittaqūni

    They will have canopies [i.e., layers] of fire above them and below them, canopies. By that Allāh threatens [i.e., warns] His servants. O My servants, then fear Me.

  17. وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱجۡتَنَبُواْ ٱلطَّٰغُوتَ أَن يَعۡبُدُوهَا وَأَنَابُوٓاْ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ لَهُمُ ٱلۡبُشۡرَىٰۚ فَبَشِّرۡ عِبَادِ١٧

    39:17

    wa-alladhīna ij'tanabū l-ṭāghūta an yaʿbudūhā wa-anābū ilā l-lahi lahumu l-bush'rā fabashir ʿibādi

    But those who have avoided ṭāghūt, lest they worship it, and turned back to Allāh - for them are good tidings. So give good tidings to My servants

  18. ٱلَّذِينَ يَسۡتَمِعُونَ ٱلۡقَوۡلَ فَيَتَّبِعُونَ أَحۡسَنَهُۥٓۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ هَدَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُۖ وَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمۡ أُوْلُواْ ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ١٨

    39:18

    alladhīna yastamiʿūna l-qawla fayattabiʿūna aḥsanahu ulāika alladhīna hadāhumu l-lahu wa-ulāika hum ulū l-albābi

    Who listen to speech and follow the best of it. Those are the ones Allāh has guided, and those are people of understanding.

  19. أَفَمَنۡ حَقَّ عَلَيۡهِ كَلِمَةُ ٱلۡعَذَابِ أَفَأَنتَ تُنقِذُ مَن فِي ٱلنَّارِ١٩

    39:19

    afaman ḥaqqa ʿalayhi kalimatu l-ʿadhābi afa-anta tunqidhu man fī l-nāri

    Then, is one who has deserved the decree of punishment [to be guided]? Then, can you save one who is in the Fire?

  20. لَٰكِنِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّقَوۡاْ رَبَّهُمۡ لَهُمۡ غُرَفٞ مِّن فَوۡقِهَا غُرَفٞ مَّبۡنِيَّةٞ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُۖ وَعۡدَ ٱللَّهِ لَا يُخۡلِفُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمِيعَادَ٢٠

    39:20

    lākini alladhīna ittaqaw rabbahum lahum ghurafun min fawqihā ghurafun mabniyyatun tajrī min taḥtihā l-anhāru waʿda l-lahi lā yukh'lifu l-lahu l-mīʿāda

    But those who have feared their Lord - for them are chambers, above them chambers built high, beneath which rivers flow. [This is] the promise of Allāh. Allāh does not fail in [His] promise.

  21. أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ أَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءٗ فَسَلَكَهُۥ يَنَٰبِيعَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ثُمَّ يُخۡرِجُ بِهِۦ زَرۡعٗا مُّخۡتَلِفًا أَلۡوَٰنُهُۥ ثُمَّ يَهِيجُ فَتَرَىٰهُ مُصۡفَرّٗا ثُمَّ يَجۡعَلُهُۥ حُطَٰمًاۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَذِكۡرَىٰ لِأُوْلِي ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ٢١

    39:21

    alam tara anna l-laha anzala mina l-samāi māan fasalakahu yanābīʿa fī l-arḍi thumma yukh'riju bihi zarʿan mukh'talifan alwānuhu thumma yahīju fatarāhu muṣ'farran thumma yajʿaluhu ḥuṭāman inna fī dhālika ladhik'rā li-ulī l-albābi

    Do you not see that Allāh sends down rain from the sky and makes it flow as springs [and rivers] in the earth; then He produces thereby crops of varying colors; then they dry and you see them turned yellow; then He makes them [scattered] debris. Indeed in that is a reminder for those of understanding.

  22. أَفَمَن شَرَحَ ٱللَّهُ صَدۡرَهُۥ لِلۡإِسۡلَٰمِ فَهُوَ عَلَىٰ نُورٖ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦۚ فَوَيۡلٞ لِّلۡقَٰسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُم مِّن ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ فِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ٢٢

    39:22

    afaman sharaḥa l-lahu ṣadrahu lil'is'lāmi fahuwa ʿalā nūrin min rabbihi fawaylun lil'qāsiyati qulūbuhum min dhik'ri l-lahi ulāika fī ḍalālin mubīnin

    So is one whose breast Allāh has expanded to [accept] Islām and he is upon [i.e., guided by] a light from his Lord [like one whose heart rejects it]? Then woe to those whose hearts are hardened against the remembrance of Allāh. Those are in manifest error.

  23. ٱللَّهُ نَزَّلَ أَحۡسَنَ ٱلۡحَدِيثِ كِتَٰبٗا مُّتَشَٰبِهٗا مَّثَانِيَ تَقۡشَعِرُّ مِنۡهُ جُلُودُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخۡشَوۡنَ رَبَّهُمۡ ثُمَّ تَلِينُ جُلُودُهُمۡ وَقُلُوبُهُمۡ إِلَىٰ ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُدَى ٱللَّهِ يَهۡدِي بِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُۚ وَمَن يُضۡلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِنۡ هَادٍ٢٣

    39:23

    al-lahu nazzala aḥsana l-ḥadīthi kitāban mutashābihan mathāniya taqshaʿirru min'hu julūdu alladhīna yakhshawna rabbahum thumma talīnu julūduhum waqulūbuhum ilā dhik'ri l-lahi dhālika hudā l-lahi yahdī bihi man yashāu waman yuḍ'lili l-lahu famā lahu min hādin

    Allāh has sent down the best statement: a consistent Book wherein is reiteration. The skins shiver therefrom of those who fear their Lord; then their skins and their hearts relax at the remembrance [i.e., mention] of Allāh. That is the guidance of Allāh by which He guides whom He wills. And one whom Allāh sends astray - for him there is no guide.

  24. أَفَمَن يَتَّقِي بِوَجۡهِهِۦ سُوٓءَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۚ وَقِيلَ لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ ذُوقُواْ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡسِبُونَ٢٤

    39:24

    afaman yattaqī biwajhihi sūa l-ʿadhābi yawma l-qiyāmati waqīla lilẓẓālimīna dhūqū mā kuntum taksibūna

    Then is he who will shield with his face the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection [like one secure from it]? And it will be said to the wrongdoers, "Taste what you used to earn."

  25. كَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَأَتَىٰهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ لَا يَشۡعُرُونَ٢٥

    39:25

    kadhaba alladhīna min qablihim fa-atāhumu l-ʿadhābu min ḥaythu lā yashʿurūna

    Those before them denied, and punishment came upon them from where they did not perceive.

  26. فَأَذَاقَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡخِزۡيَ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَاۖ وَلَعَذَابُ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ أَكۡبَرُۚ لَوۡ كَانُواْ يَعۡلَمُونَ٢٦

    39:26

    fa-adhāqahumu l-lahu l-khiz'ya fī l-ḥayati l-dun'yā walaʿadhābu l-ākhirati akbaru law kānū yaʿlamūna

    So Allāh made them taste disgrace in worldly life. But the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.

  27. وَلَقَدۡ ضَرَبۡنَا لِلنَّاسِ فِي هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٖ لَّعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ٢٧

    39:27

    walaqad ḍarabnā lilnnāsi fī hādhā l-qur'āni min kulli mathalin laʿallahum yatadhakkarūna

    And We have certainly presented for the people in this Qur’ān from every [kind of] example - that they might remember.

  28. قُرۡءَانًا عَرَبِيًّا غَيۡرَ ذِي عِوَجٖ لَّعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَّقُونَ٢٨

    39:28

    qur'ānan ʿarabiyyan ghayra dhī ʿiwajin laʿallahum yattaqūna

    [It is] an Arabic Qur’ān, without any deviance that they might become righteous.

  29. ضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلٗا رَّجُلٗا فِيهِ شُرَكَآءُ مُتَشَٰكِسُونَ وَرَجُلٗا سَلَمٗا لِّرَجُلٍ هَلۡ يَسۡتَوِيَانِ مَثَلًاۚ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِۚ بَلۡ أَكۡثَرُهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ٢٩

    39:29

    ḍaraba l-lahu mathalan rajulan fīhi shurakāu mutashākisūna warajulan salaman lirajulin hal yastawiyāni mathalan l-ḥamdu lillahi bal aktharuhum lā yaʿlamūna

    Allāh presents an example: a man [i.e., slave] owned by quarreling partners and another belonging exclusively to one man - are they equal in comparison? Praise be to Allāh! But most of them do not know.

  30. إِنَّكَ مَيِّتٞ وَإِنَّهُم مَّيِّتُونَ٣٠

    39:30

    innaka mayyitun wa-innahum mayyitūna

    Indeed, you are to die, and indeed, they are to die.

  31. ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ عِندَ رَبِّكُمۡ تَخۡتَصِمُونَ٣١

    39:31

    thumma innakum yawma l-qiyāmati ʿinda rabbikum takhtaṣimūna

    Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, before your Lord, will dispute.
