بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

1. طسٓمٓ١

   26:1

2. تِلۡكَ ءَايَٰتُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِينِ٢

   26:2

   til'ka āyātu l-kitābi l-mubīni

   These are the verses of the clear Book.

3. لَعَلَّكَ بَٰخِعٞ نَّفۡسَكَ أَلَّا يَكُونُواْ مُؤۡمِنِينَ٣

   26:3

   laʿallaka bākhiʿun nafsaka allā yakūnū mu'minīna

   Perhaps, [O Muḥammad], you would kill yourself with grief that they will not be believers.

4. إِن نَّشَأۡ نُنَزِّلۡ عَلَيۡهِم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ ءَايَةٗ فَظَلَّتۡ أَعۡنَٰقُهُمۡ لَهَا خَٰضِعِينَ٤

   26:4

   in nasha nunazzil ʿalayhim mina l-samāi āyatan faẓallat aʿnāquhum lahā khāḍiʿīna

   If We willed, We could send down to them from the sky a sign for which their necks would remain humbled.

5. وَمَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن ذِكۡرٖ مِّنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ مُحۡدَثٍ إِلَّا كَانُواْ عَنۡهُ مُعۡرِضِينَ٥

   26:5

   wamā yatīhim min dhik'rin mina l-raḥmāni muḥ'dathin illā kānū ʿanhu muʿ'riḍīna

   And no mention [i.e., revelation] comes to them anew from the Most Merciful except that they turn away from it.

6. فَقَدۡ كَذَّبُواْ فَسَيَأۡتِيهِمۡ أَنۢبَٰٓؤُاْ مَا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ٦

   26:6

   faqad kadhabū fasayatīhim anbāu mā kānū bihi yastahziūna

   For they have already denied, but there will come to them the news of that which they used to ridicule.

7. أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَمۡ أَنۢبَتۡنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوۡجٖ كَرِيمٍ٧

   26:7

   awalam yaraw ilā l-arḍi kam anbatnā fīhā min kulli zawjin karīmin

   Did they not look at the earth - how much We have produced therein from every noble kind?

8. إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ٨

   26:8

   inna fī dhālika laāyatan wamā kāna aktharuhum mu'minīna

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

9. وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ٩

   26:9

   wa-inna rabbaka lahuwa l-ʿazīzu l-raḥīmu

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

    26:10

    wa-idh nādā rabbuka mūsā ani i'ti l-qawma l-ẓālimīna

    And [mention] when your Lord called Moses, [saying], "Go to the wrongdoing people -

11. قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ أَلَا يَتَّقُونَ١١

    26:11

    qawma fir'ʿawna alā yattaqūna

    The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allāh?"

12. قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ١٢

    26:12

    qāla rabbi innī akhāfu an yukadhibūni

    He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me

    26:13

    wayaḍīqu ṣadrī walā yanṭaliqu lisānī fa-arsil ilā hārūna

    And that my breast will tighten and my tongue will not be fluent, so send for Aaron.

14. وَلَهُمۡ عَلَيَّ ذَنۢبٞ فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقۡتُلُونِ١٤

    26:14

    walahum ʿalayya dhanbun fa-akhāfu an yaqtulūni

    And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me."

15. قَالَ كـَلَّاۖ فَٱذۡهَبَا بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآۖ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّسۡتَمِعُونَ١٥

    26:15

    qāla kallā fa-idh'habā biāyātinā innā maʿakum mus'tamiʿūna

    [Allāh] said, "No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening.

    26:16

    fatiyā fir'ʿawna faqūlā innā rasūlu rabbi l-ʿālamīna

    Go to Pharaoh and say, 'We are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds,

17. أَنۡ أَرۡسِلۡ مَعَنَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ١٧

    26:17

    an arsil maʿanā banī is'rāīla

    [Commanded to say], "Send with us the Children of Israel."'"

18. قَالَ أَلَمۡ نُرَبِّكَ فِينَا وَلِيدٗا وَلَبِثۡتَ فِينَا مِنۡ عُمُرِكَ سِنِينَ١٨

    26:18

    qāla alam nurabbika fīnā walīdan walabith'ta fīnā min ʿumurika sinīna

    [Pharaoh] said, "Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life?

19. وَفَعَلۡتَ فَعۡلَتَكَ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلۡتَ وَأَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ١٩

    26:19

    wafaʿalta faʿlataka allatī faʿalta wa-anta mina l-kāfirīna

    And [then] you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful."

20. قَالَ فَعَلۡتُهَآ إِذٗا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ٢٠

    26:20

    qāla faʿaltuhā idhan wa-anā mina l-ḍālīna

    [Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray [i.e., ignorant].

21. فَفَرَرۡتُ مِنكُمۡ لَمَّا خِفۡتُكُمۡ فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكۡمٗا وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ٢١

    26:21

    fafarartu minkum lammā khif'tukum fawahaba lī rabbī ḥuk'man wajaʿalanī mina l-mur'salīna

    So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me judgement [i.e., wisdom and prophet hood] and appointed me [as one] of the messengers.

22. وَتِلۡكَ نِعۡمَةٞ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَيَّ أَنۡ عَبَّدتَّ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ٢٢

    26:22

    watil'ka niʿ'matun tamunnuhā ʿalayya an ʿabbadtta banī is'rāīla

    And is this a favor of which you remind me - that you have enslaved the Children of Israel?"

    26:30

    qāla awalaw ji'tuka bishayin mubīnin

    [Moses] said, "Even if I brought you something [i.e., proof] manifest?"

    26:32

    fa-alqā ʿaṣāhu fa-idhā hiya thuʿ'bānun mubīnun

    So [Moses] threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent manifest.

    26:33

    wanazaʿa yadahu fa-idhā hiya bayḍāu lilnnāẓirīna

    26:37

    yatūka bikulli saḥḥārin ʿalīmin

    26:38

    fajumiʿa l-saḥaratu limīqāti yawmin maʿlūmin

    26:39

    waqīla lilnnāsi hal antum muj'tamiʿūna

    26:40

    laʿallanā nattabiʿu l-saḥarata in kānū humu l-ghālibīna

    That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant?"

41. فَلَمَّا جَآءَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ قَالُواْ لِفِرۡعَوۡنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجۡرًا إِن كُنَّا نَحۡنُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ٤١

    26:41

    falammā jāa l-saḥaratu qālū lifir'ʿawna a-inna lanā la-ajran in kunnā naḥnu l-ghālibīna

    And when the magicians arrived, they said to Pharaoh, "Is there indeed for us a reward if we are the predominant?"

    26:42

    qāla naʿam wa-innakum idhan lamina l-muqarabīna

    He said, "Yes, and indeed, you will then be of those near [to me]."

    26:43

    qāla lahum mūsā alqū mā antum mul'qūna

    Moses said to them, "Throw whatever you will throw."

44. فَأَلۡقَوۡاْ حِبَالَهُمۡ وَعِصِيَّهُمۡ وَقَالُواْ بِعِزَّةِ فِرۡعَوۡنَ إِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبُونَ٤٤

    26:44

    fa-alqaw ḥibālahum waʿiṣiyyahum waqālū biʿizzati fir'ʿawna innā lanaḥnu l-ghālibūna

    So they threw their ropes and their staffs and said, "By the might of Pharaoh, indeed it is we who are predominant."

45. فَأَلۡقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلۡقَفُ مَا يَأۡفِكُونَ٤٥

    26:45

    fa-alqā mūsā ʿaṣāhu fa-idhā hiya talqafu mā yafikūna

    Then Moses threw his staff, and at once it devoured what they falsified.

46. فَأُلۡقِيَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ سَٰجِدِينَ٤٦

    26:46

    fa-ul'qiya l-saḥaratu sājidīna

    26:47

    26:48

    rabbi mūsā wahārūna

    The Lord of Moses and Aaron."

49. قَالَ ءَامَنتُمۡ لَهُۥ قَبۡلَ أَنۡ ءَاذَنَ لَكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ ٱلَّذِي عَلَّمَكُمُ ٱلسِّحۡرَ فَلَسَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَۚ لَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيۡدِيَكُمۡ وَأَرۡجُلَكُم مِّنۡ خِلَٰفٖ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ٤٩

    26:49

    qāla āmantum lahu qabla an ādhana lakum innahu lakabīrukumu alladhī ʿallamakumu l-siḥ'ra falasawfa taʿlamūna la-uqaṭṭiʿanna aydiyakum wa-arjulakum min khilāfin wala-uṣallibannakum ajmaʿīna

    [Pharaoh] said, "You believed him [i.e., Moses] before I gave you permission. Indeed, he is your leader who has taught you magic, but you are going to know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will surely crucify you all."

50. قَالُواْ لَا ضَيۡرَۖ إِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا مُنقَلِبُونَ٥٠

    26:50

    qālū lā ḍayra innā ilā rabbinā munqalibūna

    They said, "No harm. Indeed, to our Lord we will return.

51. إِنَّا نَطۡمَعُ أَن يَغۡفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطَٰيَٰنَآ أَن كُنَّآ أَوَّلَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ٥١

    26:51

    innā naṭmaʿu an yaghfira lanā rabbunā khaṭāyānā an kunnā awwala l-mu'minīna

    Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers."

52. ۞ وَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنۡ أَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِيٓ إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ٥٢

    26:52

    wa-awḥaynā ilā mūsā an asri biʿibādī innakum muttabaʿūna

    And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued."

53. فَأَرۡسَلَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ فِي ٱلۡمَدَآئِنِ حَٰشِرِينَ٥٣

    26:53

    fa-arsala fir'ʿawnu fī l-madāini ḥāshirīna

    Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers

54. إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَشِرۡذِمَةٞ قَلِيلُونَ٥٤

    26:54

    inna hāulāi lashir'dhimatun qalīlūna

    [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

     He said, "This is a she-camel. For her is a [time of] drink, and for you is a [time of] drink, [each] on a known day.

156. وَلَا تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوٓءٖ فَيَأۡخُذَكُمۡ عَذَابُ يَوۡمٍ عَظِيمٖ١٥٦

     26:156

     walā tamassūhā bisūin fayakhudhakum ʿadhābu yawmin ʿaẓīmin

     And do not touch her with harm, lest you be seized by the punishment of a terrible day."

157. فَعَقَرُوهَا فَأَصۡبَحُواْ نَٰدِمِينَ١٥٧

     26:157

     faʿaqarūhā fa-aṣbaḥū nādimīna

     But they hamstrung her and so became regretful.

158. فَأَخَذَهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ١٥٨

     26:158

     fa-akhadhahumu l-ʿadhābu inna fī dhālika laāyatan wamā kāna aktharuhum mu'minīna

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

159. وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ١٥٩

     26:159

     wa-inna rabbaka lahuwa l-ʿazīzu l-raḥīmu

     26:160

     kadhabat qawmu lūṭin l-mur'salīna

     26:161

     idh qāla lahum akhūhum lūṭun alā tattaqūna

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

     26:162

     innī lakum rasūlun amīnun

163. فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ١٦٣

     26:163

     fa-ittaqū l-laha wa-aṭīʿūni

     So fear Allāh and obey me.

164. وَمَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍۖ إِنۡ أَجۡرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ١٦٤

     26:164

     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.

165. أَتَأۡتُونَ ٱلذُّكۡرَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ١٦٥

     26:165

     atatūna l-dhuk'rāna mina l-ʿālamīna

     Do you approach males among the worlds

166. وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمۡ رَبُّكُم مِّنۡ أَزۡوَٰجِكُمۚ بَلۡ أَنتُمۡ قَوۡمٌ عَادُونَ١٦٦

     26:166

     watadharūna mā khalaqa lakum rabbukum min azwājikum bal antum qawmun ʿādūna

     And leave what your Lord has created for you as mates? But you are a people transgressing."

167. قَالُواْ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهِ يَٰلُوطُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡمُخۡرَجِينَ١٦٧

     26:167

     qālū la-in lam tantahi yālūṭu latakūnanna mina l-mukh'rajīna

     They said, "If you do not desist, O Lot, you will surely be of those evicted."

     26:168

     26:169

     rabbi najjinī wa-ahlī mimmā yaʿmalūna

170. فَنَجَّيۡنَٰهُ وَأَهۡلَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ١٧٠

     26:170

     fanajjaynāhu wa-ahlahu ajmaʿīna

     So We saved him and his family, all,

171. إِلَّا عَجُوزٗا فِي ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ١٧١

     26:171

     illā ʿajūzan fī l-ghābirīna

     Except an old woman among those who remained behind.

172. ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ١٧٢

     26:172

     thumma dammarnā l-ākharīna

     Then We destroyed the others.

173. وَأَمۡطَرۡنَا عَلَيۡهِم مَّطَرٗاۖ فَسَآءَ مَطَرُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ١٧٣

     26:173

     wa-amṭarnā ʿalayhim maṭaran fasāa maṭaru l-mundharīna

     And We rained upon them a rain [of stones], and evil was the rain of those who were warned.

174. إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ١٧٤

     26:174

     inna fī dhālika laāyatan wamā kāna aktharuhum mu'minīna

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

175. وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ١٧٥

     26:175

     wa-inna rabbaka lahuwa l-ʿazīzu l-raḥīmu

     26:177

     idh qāla lahum shuʿaybun alā tattaqūna

     When Shuʿayb said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?

     26:178

     innī lakum rasūlun amīnun

     26:181

     awfū l-kayla walā takūnū mina l-mukh'sirīna

     26:182

     wazinū bil-qis'ṭāsi l-mus'taqīmi

     And weigh with an even [i.e., honest] balance.

183. وَلَا تَبۡخَسُواْ ٱلنَّاسَ أَشۡيَآءَهُمۡ وَلَا تَعۡثَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مُفۡسِدِينَ١٨٣

     26:183

     walā tabkhasū l-nāsa ashyāahum walā taʿthaw fī l-arḍi muf'sidīna

     And do not deprive people of their due and do not commit abuse on earth, spreading corruption.

184. وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَكُمۡ وَٱلۡجِبِلَّةَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ١٨٤

     26:184

     wa-ittaqū alladhī khalaqakum wal-jibilata l-awalīna

     And fear He who created you and the former creation."

185. قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَحَّرِينَ١٨٥

     26:185

     qālū innamā anta mina l-musaḥarīna

     They said, "You are only of those affected by magic.

     26:186

     wamā anta illā basharun mith'lunā wa-in naẓunnuka lamina l-kādhibīna

     You are but a man like ourselves, and indeed, we think you are among the liars.

187. فَأَسۡقِطۡ عَلَيۡنَا كِسَفٗا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ١٨٧

     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."

     26:188

     qāla rabbī aʿlamu bimā taʿmalūna

     He said, "My Lord is most knowing of what you do."

     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.

214. وَأَنذِرۡ عَشِيرَتَكَ ٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ٢١٤

     26:214

     wa-andhir ʿashīrataka l-aqrabīna

     And warn, [O Muḥammad], your closest kindred.

215. وَٱخۡفِضۡ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ٢١٥

     26:215

     wa-ikh'fiḍ janāḥaka limani ittabaʿaka mina l-mu'minīna

     And lower your wing [i.e., show kindness] to those who follow you of the believers.

216. فَإِنۡ عَصَوۡكَ فَقُلۡ إِنِّي بَرِيٓءٞ مِّمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ٢١٦

     26:216

     fa-in ʿaṣawka faqul innī barīon mimmā taʿmalūna

     And if they disobey you, then say, "Indeed, I am disassociated from what you are doing."

217. وَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ٢١٧

     26:217

     watawakkal ʿalā l-ʿazīzi l-raḥīmi

     And rely upon the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

218. ٱلَّذِي يَرَىٰكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ٢١٨

     26:218

     alladhī yarāka ḥīna taqūmu

     Who sees you when you arise

219. وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِي ٱلسَّٰجِدِينَ٢١٩

     26:219

     wataqallubaka fī l-sājidīna

     And your movement among those who prostrate.

220. إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ٢٢٠

     26:220

     innahu huwa l-samīʿu l-ʿalīmu

     Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

221. هَلۡ أُنَبِّئُكُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ٢٢١

     26:221

     hal unabbi-ukum ʿalā man tanazzalu l-shayāṭīnu

     Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend?

222. تَنَزَّلُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٖ٢٢٢

     26:222

     tanazzalu ʿalā kulli affākin athīmin

     They descend upon every sinful liar.

223. يُلۡقُونَ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَأَكۡثَرُهُمۡ كَٰذِبُونَ٢٢٣

     26:223

     yul'qūna l-samʿa wa-aktharuhum kādhibūna

     They pass on what is heard, and most of them are liars.

224. وَٱلشُّعَرَآءُ يَتَّبِعُهُمُ ٱلۡغَاوُۥنَ٢٢٤

     26:224

     wal-shuʿarāu yattabiʿuhumu l-ghāwūna

     And the poets - [only] the deviators follow them;

225. أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّهُمۡ فِي كُلِّ وَادٖ يَهِيمُونَ٢٢٥

     26:225

     alam tara annahum fī kulli wādin yahīmūna

     Do you not see that in every valley they roam

226. وَأَنَّهُمۡ يَقُولُونَ مَا لَا يَفۡعَلُونَ٢٢٦

     26:226

     wa-annahum yaqūlūna mā lā yafʿalūna

     And that they say what they do not do? -

227. إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَذَكَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرٗا وَٱنتَصَرُواْ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا ظُلِمُواْۗ وَسَيَعۡلَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓاْ أَيَّ مُنقَلَبٖ يَنقَلِبُونَ٢٢٧

     illā alladhīna āmanū waʿamilū l-ṣāliḥāti wadhakarū l-laha kathīran wa-intaṣarū min baʿdi mā ẓulimū wasayaʿlamu alladhīna ẓalamū ayya munqalabin yanqalibūna

     Except those [poets] who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allāh often and defend [the Muslims] after they were wronged. And those who have wronged are going to know to what [kind of] return they will be returned.
