Ṭā, Seen, Meem.
2
تِلْكَءَايَـٰتُٱلْكِتَـٰبِٱلْمُبِينِ٢
These are the verses of the clear Book.
3
لَعَلَّكَبَـٰخِعٌۭنَّفْسَكَأَلَّايَكُونُوا۟مُؤْمِنِينَ٣
Perhaps, [O Muḥammad], you would kill yourself with grief that they will not be believers.
4
إِننَّشَأْنُنَزِّلْعَلَيْهِممِّنَٱلسَّمَآءِءَايَةًۭفَظَلَّتْأَعْنَـٰقُهُمْلَهَاخَـٰضِعِينَ٤
If We willed, We could send down to them from the sky a sign for which their necks would remain humbled.
5
وَمَايَأْتِيهِممِّنذِكْرٍۢمِّنَٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِمُحْدَثٍإِلَّاكَانُوا۟عَنْهُمُعْرِضِينَ٥
And no mention [i.e., revelation] comes to them anew from the Most Merciful except that they turn away from it.
6
فَقَدْكَذَّبُوا۟فَسَيَأْتِيهِمْأَنۢبَـٰٓؤُا۟مَاكَانُوا۟بِهِۦيَسْتَهْزِءُونَ٦
For they have already denied, but there will come to them the news of that which they used to ridicule.
7
أَوَلَمْيَرَوْا۟إِلَىٱلْأَرْضِكَمْأَنۢبَتْنَافِيهَامِنكُلِّزَوْجٍۢكَرِيمٍ٧
Did they not look at the earth - how much We have produced therein from every noble kind?
8
إِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ٨
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
9
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ٩
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
10
وَإِذْنَادَىٰرَبُّكَمُوسَىٰٓأَنِٱئْتِٱلْقَوْمَٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ١٠
And [mention] when your Lord called Moses, [saying], "Go to the wrongdoing people -
11
قَوْمَفِرْعَوْنَ ۚأَلَايَتَّقُونَ١١
The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allāh?"
12
قَالَرَبِّإِنِّىٓأَخَافُأَنيُكَذِّبُونِ١٢
He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me
13
وَيَضِيقُصَدْرِىوَلَايَنطَلِقُلِسَانِىفَأَرْسِلْإِلَىٰهَـٰرُونَ١٣
And that my breast will tighten and my tongue will not be fluent, so send for Aaron.
14
وَلَهُمْعَلَىَّذَنۢبٌۭفَأَخَافُأَنيَقْتُلُونِ١٤
And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me."
15
قَالَكَلَّا ۖفَٱذْهَبَابِـَٔايَـٰتِنَآ ۖإِنَّامَعَكُممُّسْتَمِعُونَ١٥
[Allāh] said, "No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening.
16
فَأْتِيَافِرْعَوْنَفَقُولَآإِنَّارَسُولُرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٦
Go to Pharaoh and say, 'We are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds,
17
أَنْأَرْسِلْمَعَنَابَنِىٓإِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ١٧
[Commanded to say], "Send with us the Children of Israel."'"
18
قَالَأَلَمْنُرَبِّكَفِينَاوَلِيدًۭاوَلَبِثْتَفِينَامِنْعُمُرِكَسِنِينَ١٨
[Pharaoh] said, "Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life?
19
وَفَعَلْتَفَعْلَتَكَٱلَّتِىفَعَلْتَوَأَنتَمِنَٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ١٩
And [then] you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful."
20
قَالَفَعَلْتُهَآإِذًۭاوَأَنَا۠مِنَٱلضَّآلِّينَ٢٠
[Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray [i.e., ignorant].
21
فَفَرَرْتُمِنكُمْلَمَّاخِفْتُكُمْفَوَهَبَلِىرَبِّىحُكْمًۭاوَجَعَلَنِىمِنَٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ٢١
So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me judgement [i.e., wisdom and prophethood] and appointed me [as one] of the messengers.
22
وَتِلْكَنِعْمَةٌۭتَمُنُّهَاعَلَىَّأَنْعَبَّدتَّبَنِىٓإِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ٢٢
And is this a favor of which you remind me - that you have enslaved the Children of Israel?"
23
قَالَفِرْعَوْنُوَمَارَبُّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ٢٣
Said Pharaoh, "And what is the Lord of the worlds?"
24
قَالَرَبُّٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِوَٱلْأَرْضِوَمَابَيْنَهُمَآ ۖإِنكُنتُممُّوقِنِينَ٢٤
[Moses] said, "The Lord of the heavens and earth and that between them, if you should be convinced."
25
قَالَلِمَنْحَوْلَهُۥٓأَلَاتَسْتَمِعُونَ٢٥
[Pharaoh] said to those around him, "Do you not hear?"
26
قَالَرَبُّكُمْوَرَبُّءَابَآئِكُمُٱلْأَوَّلِينَ٢٦
[Moses] said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers."
27
قَالَإِنَّرَسُولَكُمُٱلَّذِىٓأُرْسِلَإِلَيْكُمْلَمَجْنُونٌۭ٢٧
[Pharaoh] said, "Indeed, your 'messenger' who has been sent to you is mad."
28
قَالَرَبُّٱلْمَشْرِقِوَٱلْمَغْرِبِوَمَابَيْنَهُمَآ ۖإِنكُنتُمْتَعْقِلُونَ٢٨
[Moses] said, "Lord of the east and the west and that between them, if you were to reason."
29
قَالَلَئِنِٱتَّخَذْتَإِلَـٰهًاغَيْرِىلَأَجْعَلَنَّكَمِنَٱلْمَسْجُونِينَ٢٩
[Pharaoh] said, "If you take a god other than me, I will surely place you among those imprisoned."
30
قَالَأَوَلَوْجِئْتُكَبِشَىْءٍۢمُّبِينٍۢ٣٠
[Moses] said, "Even if I brought you something [i.e., proof] manifest?"
31
قَالَفَأْتِبِهِۦٓإِنكُنتَمِنَٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ٣١
[Pharaoh] said, "Then bring it, if you should be of the truthful."
32
فَأَلْقَىٰعَصَاهُفَإِذَاهِىَثُعْبَانٌۭمُّبِينٌۭ٣٢
So [Moses] threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent manifest.
33
وَنَزَعَيَدَهُۥفَإِذَاهِىَبَيْضَآءُلِلنَّـٰظِرِينَ٣٣
And he drew out his hand; thereupon it was white for the observers.
34
قَالَلِلْمَلَإِحَوْلَهُۥٓإِنَّهَـٰذَالَسَـٰحِرٌعَلِيمٌۭ٣٤
[Pharaoh] said to the eminent ones around him, "Indeed, this is a learned magician.
35
يُرِيدُأَنيُخْرِجَكُممِّنْأَرْضِكُمبِسِحْرِهِۦفَمَاذَاتَأْمُرُونَ٣٥
He wants to drive you out of your land by his magic, so what do you advise?"
36
قَالُوٓا۟أَرْجِهْوَأَخَاهُوَٱبْعَثْفِىٱلْمَدَآئِنِحَـٰشِرِينَ٣٦
They said, "Postpone [the matter of] him and his brother and send among the cities gatherers
37
يَأْتُوكَبِكُلِّسَحَّارٍعَلِيمٍۢ٣٧
Who will bring you every learned, skilled magician."
38
فَجُمِعَٱلسَّحَرَةُلِمِيقَـٰتِيَوْمٍۢمَّعْلُومٍۢ٣٨
So the magicians were assembled for the appointment of a well-known day.
39
وَقِيلَلِلنَّاسِهَلْأَنتُممُّجْتَمِعُونَ٣٩
And it was said to the people, "Will you congregate
40
لَعَلَّنَانَتَّبِعُٱلسَّحَرَةَإِنكَانُوا۟هُمُٱلْغَـٰلِبِينَ٤٠
That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant?"
41
فَلَمَّاجَآءَٱلسَّحَرَةُقَالُوا۟لِفِرْعَوْنَأَئِنَّلَنَالَأَجْرًاإِنكُنَّانَحْنُٱلْغَـٰلِبِينَ٤١
And when the magicians arrived, they said to Pharaoh, "Is there indeed for us a reward if we are the predominant?"
42
قَالَنَعَمْوَإِنَّكُمْإِذًۭالَّمِنَٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ٤٢
He said, "Yes, and indeed, you will then be of those near [to me]."
43
قَالَلَهُممُّوسَىٰٓأَلْقُوا۟مَآأَنتُممُّلْقُونَ٤٣
Moses said to them, "Throw whatever you will throw."
44
فَأَلْقَوْا۟حِبَالَهُمْوَعِصِيَّهُمْوَقَالُوا۟بِعِزَّةِفِرْعَوْنَإِنَّالَنَحْنُٱلْغَـٰلِبُونَ٤٤
So they threw their ropes and their staffs and said, "By the might of Pharaoh, indeed it is we who are predominant."
45
فَأَلْقَىٰمُوسَىٰعَصَاهُفَإِذَاهِىَتَلْقَفُمَايَأْفِكُونَ٤٥
Then Moses threw his staff, and at once it devoured what they falsified.
46
فَأُلْقِىَٱلسَّحَرَةُسَـٰجِدِينَ٤٦
So the magicians fell down in prostration [to Allāh].
47
قَالُوٓا۟ءَامَنَّابِرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ٤٧
They said, "We have believed in the Lord of the worlds,
48
رَبِّمُوسَىٰوَهَـٰرُونَ٤٨
The Lord of Moses and Aaron."
49
قَالَءَامَنتُمْلَهُۥقَبْلَأَنْءَاذَنَلَكُمْ ۖإِنَّهُۥلَكَبِيرُكُمُٱلَّذِىعَلَّمَكُمُٱلسِّحْرَفَلَسَوْفَتَعْلَمُونَ ۚلَأُقَطِّعَنَّأَيْدِيَكُمْوَأَرْجُلَكُممِّنْخِلَـٰفٍۢوَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمْأَجْمَعِينَ٤٩
[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
قَالُوا۟لَاضَيْرَ ۖإِنَّآإِلَىٰرَبِّنَامُنقَلِبُونَ٥٠
They said, "No harm. Indeed, to our Lord we will return.
51
إِنَّانَطْمَعُأَنيَغْفِرَلَنَارَبُّنَاخَطَـٰيَـٰنَآأَنكُنَّآأَوَّلَٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ٥١
Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers."
52
۞ وَأَوْحَيْنَآإِلَىٰمُوسَىٰٓأَنْأَسْرِبِعِبَادِىٓإِنَّكُممُّتَّبَعُونَ٥٢
And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued."
53
فَأَرْسَلَفِرْعَوْنُفِىٱلْمَدَآئِنِحَـٰشِرِينَ٥٣
Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers
54
إِنَّهَـٰٓؤُلَآءِلَشِرْذِمَةٌۭقَلِيلُونَ٥٤
[And said], "Indeed, those are but a small band,
55
وَإِنَّهُمْلَنَالَغَآئِظُونَ٥٥
And indeed, they are enraging us,
56
وَإِنَّالَجَمِيعٌحَـٰذِرُونَ٥٦
And indeed, we are a cautious society..."
57
فَأَخْرَجْنَـٰهُممِّنجَنَّـٰتٍۢوَعُيُونٍۢ٥٧
So We removed them from gardens and springs
58
وَكُنُوزٍۢوَمَقَامٍۢكَرِيمٍۢ٥٨
And treasures and honorable station -
59
كَذَٰلِكَوَأَوْرَثْنَـٰهَابَنِىٓإِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ٥٩
Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel.
60
فَأَتْبَعُوهُممُّشْرِقِينَ٦٠
So they pursued them at sunrise.
61
فَلَمَّاتَرَٰٓءَاٱلْجَمْعَانِقَالَأَصْحَـٰبُمُوسَىٰٓإِنَّالَمُدْرَكُونَ٦١
And when the two companies saw one another, the companions of Moses said, "Indeed, we are to be overtaken!"
62
قَالَكَلَّآ ۖإِنَّمَعِىَرَبِّىسَيَهْدِينِ٦٢
[Moses] said, "No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me."
63
فَأَوْحَيْنَآإِلَىٰمُوسَىٰٓأَنِٱضْرِببِّعَصَاكَٱلْبَحْرَ ۖفَٱنفَلَقَفَكَانَكُلُّفِرْقٍۢكَٱلطَّوْدِٱلْعَظِيمِ٦٣
Then We inspired to Moses, "Strike with your staff the sea," and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain.
64
وَأَزْلَفْنَاثَمَّٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ٦٤
And We advanced thereto the others [i.e., the pursuers].
65
وَأَنجَيْنَامُوسَىٰوَمَنمَّعَهُۥٓأَجْمَعِينَ٦٥
And We saved Moses and those with him, all together.
66
ثُمَّأَغْرَقْنَاٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ٦٦
Then We drowned the others.
67
إِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ٦٧
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
68
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ٦٨
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
69
وَٱتْلُعَلَيْهِمْنَبَأَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ٦٩
And recite to them the news of Abraham,
70
إِذْقَالَلِأَبِيهِوَقَوْمِهِۦمَاتَعْبُدُونَ٧٠
When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?"
71
قَالُوا۟نَعْبُدُأَصْنَامًۭافَنَظَلُّلَهَاعَـٰكِفِينَ٧١
They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted."
72
قَالَهَلْيَسْمَعُونَكُمْإِذْتَدْعُونَ٧٢
He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate?
73
أَوْيَنفَعُونَكُمْأَوْيَضُرُّونَ٧٣
Or do they benefit you, or do they harm?"
74
قَالُوا۟بَلْوَجَدْنَآءَابَآءَنَاكَذَٰلِكَيَفْعَلُونَ٧٤
They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus."
75
قَالَأَفَرَءَيْتُممَّاكُنتُمْتَعْبُدُونَ٧٥
He said, "Then do you see what you have been worshipping,
76
أَنتُمْوَءَابَآؤُكُمُٱلْأَقْدَمُونَ٧٦
You and your ancient forefathers?
77
فَإِنَّهُمْعَدُوٌّۭلِّىٓإِلَّارَبَّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ٧٧
Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds,
78
ٱلَّذِىخَلَقَنِىفَهُوَيَهْدِينِ٧٨
Who created me, and He [it is who] guides me.
79
وَٱلَّذِىهُوَيُطْعِمُنِىوَيَسْقِينِ٧٩
And it is He who feeds me and gives me drink.
80
وَإِذَامَرِضْتُفَهُوَيَشْفِينِ٨٠
And when I am ill, it is He who cures me
81
وَٱلَّذِىيُمِيتُنِىثُمَّيُحْيِينِ٨١
And who will cause me to die and then bring me to life
82
وَٱلَّذِىٓأَطْمَعُأَنيَغْفِرَلِىخَطِيٓـَٔتِىيَوْمَٱلدِّينِ٨٢
And who I aspire that He will forgive me my sin on the Day of Recompense."
83
رَبِّهَبْلِىحُكْمًۭاوَأَلْحِقْنِىبِٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ٨٣
[And he said], "My Lord, grant me authority and join me with the righteous.
84
وَٱجْعَللِّىلِسَانَصِدْقٍۢفِىٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ٨٤
And grant me a mention [i.e., reputation] of honor among later generations.
85
وَٱجْعَلْنِىمِنوَرَثَةِجَنَّةِٱلنَّعِيمِ٨٥
And place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Pleasure.
86
وَٱغْفِرْلِأَبِىٓإِنَّهُۥكَانَمِنَٱلضَّآلِّينَ٨٦
And forgive my father. Indeed, he has been of those astray.
87
وَلَاتُخْزِنِىيَوْمَيُبْعَثُونَ٨٧
And do not disgrace me on the Day they are [all] resurrected -
88
يَوْمَلَايَنفَعُمَالٌۭوَلَابَنُونَ٨٨
The Day when there will not benefit [anyone] wealth or children
89
إِلَّامَنْأَتَىٱللَّهَبِقَلْبٍۢسَلِيمٍۢ٨٩
But only one who comes to Allāh with a sound heart."
90
وَأُزْلِفَتِٱلْجَنَّةُلِلْمُتَّقِينَ٩٠
And Paradise will be brought near [that Day] to the righteous.
91
وَبُرِّزَتِٱلْجَحِيمُلِلْغَاوِينَ٩١
And Hellfire will be brought forth for the deviators,
92
وَقِيلَلَهُمْأَيْنَمَاكُنتُمْتَعْبُدُونَ٩٢
And it will be said to them, "Where are those you used to worship
93
مِندُونِٱللَّهِهَلْيَنصُرُونَكُمْأَوْيَنتَصِرُونَ٩٣
Other than Allāh? Can they help you or help themselves?"
94
فَكُبْكِبُوا۟فِيهَاهُمْوَٱلْغَاوُۥنَ٩٤
So they will be overturned into it [i.e., Hellfire], they and the deviators
95
وَجُنُودُإِبْلِيسَأَجْمَعُونَ٩٥
And the soldiers of Iblees, all together.
96
قَالُوا۟وَهُمْفِيهَايَخْتَصِمُونَ٩٦
They will say while they dispute therein,
97
تَٱللَّهِإِنكُنَّالَفِىضَلَـٰلٍۢمُّبِينٍ٩٧
"By Allāh, we were indeed in manifest error
98
إِذْنُسَوِّيكُمبِرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ٩٨
When we equated you with the Lord of the worlds.
99
وَمَآأَضَلَّنَآإِلَّاٱلْمُجْرِمُونَ٩٩
And no one misguided us except the criminals.
100
فَمَالَنَامِنشَـٰفِعِينَ١٠٠
So now we have no intercessors
101
وَلَاصَدِيقٍحَمِيمٍۢ١٠١
And not a devoted friend.
102
فَلَوْأَنَّلَنَاكَرَّةًۭفَنَكُونَمِنَٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ١٠٢
Then if we only had a return [to the world] and could be of the believers..."
103
إِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ١٠٣
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
104
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ١٠٤
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
105
كَذَّبَتْقَوْمُنُوحٍٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ١٠٥
The people of Noah denied the messengers
106
إِذْقَالَلَهُمْأَخُوهُمْنُوحٌأَلَاتَتَّقُونَ١٠٦
When their brother Noah said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?
107
إِنِّىلَكُمْرَسُولٌأَمِينٌۭ١٠٧
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
108
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١٠٨
So fear Allāh and obey me.
109
وَمَآأَسْـَٔلُكُمْعَلَيْهِمِنْأَجْرٍ ۖإِنْأَجْرِىَإِلَّاعَلَىٰرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٠٩
And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
110
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١١٠
So fear Allāh and obey me."
111
۞ قَالُوٓا۟أَنُؤْمِنُلَكَوَٱتَّبَعَكَٱلْأَرْذَلُونَ١١١
They said, "Should we believe you while you are followed by the lowest [class of people]?"
112
قَالَوَمَاعِلْمِىبِمَاكَانُوا۟يَعْمَلُونَ١١٢
He said, "And what is my knowledge of what they used to do?
113
إِنْحِسَابُهُمْإِلَّاعَلَىٰرَبِّى ۖلَوْتَشْعُرُونَ١١٣
Their account is only upon my Lord, if you [could] perceive.
114
وَمَآأَنَا۠بِطَارِدِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ١١٤
And I am not one to drive away the believers.
115
إِنْأَنَا۠إِلَّانَذِيرٌۭمُّبِينٌۭ١١٥
I am only a clear warner."
116
قَالُوا۟لَئِنلَّمْتَنتَهِيَـٰنُوحُلَتَكُونَنَّمِنَٱلْمَرْجُومِينَ١١٦
They said, "If you do not desist, O Noah, you will surely be of those who are stoned."
117
قَالَرَبِّإِنَّقَوْمِىكَذَّبُونِ١١٧
He said, "My Lord, indeed my people have denied me.
118
فَٱفْتَحْبَيْنِىوَبَيْنَهُمْفَتْحًۭاوَنَجِّنِىوَمَنمَّعِىَمِنَٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ١١٨
Then judge between me and them with decisive judgement and save me and those with me of the believers."
119
فَأَنجَيْنَـٰهُوَمَنمَّعَهُۥفِىٱلْفُلْكِٱلْمَشْحُونِ١١٩
So We saved him and those with him in the laden ship.
120
ثُمَّأَغْرَقْنَابَعْدُٱلْبَاقِينَ١٢٠
Then We drowned thereafter the remaining ones.
121
إِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ١٢١
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
122
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ١٢٢
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
123
كَذَّبَتْعَادٌٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ١٢٣
ʿAad denied the messengers
124
إِذْقَالَلَهُمْأَخُوهُمْهُودٌأَلَاتَتَّقُونَ١٢٤
When their brother Hūd said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?
125
إِنِّىلَكُمْرَسُولٌأَمِينٌۭ١٢٥
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
126
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١٢٦
So fear Allāh and obey me.
127
وَمَآأَسْـَٔلُكُمْعَلَيْهِمِنْأَجْرٍ ۖإِنْأَجْرِىَإِلَّاعَلَىٰرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٢٧
And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
128
أَتَبْنُونَبِكُلِّرِيعٍءَايَةًۭتَعْبَثُونَ١٢٨
Do you construct on every elevation a sign, amusing yourselves,
129
وَتَتَّخِذُونَمَصَانِعَلَعَلَّكُمْتَخْلُدُونَ١٢٩
And take for yourselves constructions [i.e., palaces and fortresses] that you might abide eternally?
130
وَإِذَابَطَشْتُمبَطَشْتُمْجَبَّارِينَ١٣٠
And when you strike, you strike as tyrants.
131
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١٣١
So fear Allāh and obey me.
132
وَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱلَّذِىٓأَمَدَّكُمبِمَاتَعْلَمُونَ١٣٢
And fear He who provided you with that which you know,
133
أَمَدَّكُمبِأَنْعَـٰمٍۢوَبَنِينَ١٣٣
Provided you with grazing livestock and children
134
وَجَنَّـٰتٍۢوَعُيُونٍ١٣٤
And gardens and springs.
135
إِنِّىٓأَخَافُعَلَيْكُمْعَذَابَيَوْمٍعَظِيمٍۢ١٣٥
Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a terrible day."
136
قَالُوا۟سَوَآءٌعَلَيْنَآأَوَعَظْتَأَمْلَمْتَكُنمِّنَٱلْوَٰعِظِينَ١٣٦
They said, "It is all the same to us whether you advise or are not of the advisors.
137
إِنْهَـٰذَآإِلَّاخُلُقُٱلْأَوَّلِينَ١٣٧
This is not but the custom of the former peoples,
138
وَمَانَحْنُبِمُعَذَّبِينَ١٣٨
And we are not to be punished."
139
فَكَذَّبُوهُفَأَهْلَكْنَـٰهُمْ ۗإِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ١٣٩
And they denied him, so We destroyed them. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
140
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ١٤٠
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
141
كَذَّبَتْثَمُودُٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ١٤١
Thamūd denied the messengers
142
إِذْقَالَلَهُمْأَخُوهُمْصَـٰلِحٌأَلَاتَتَّقُونَ١٤٢
When their brother Ṣāliḥ said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?
143
إِنِّىلَكُمْرَسُولٌأَمِينٌۭ١٤٣
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
144
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١٤٤
So fear Allāh and obey me.
145
وَمَآأَسْـَٔلُكُمْعَلَيْهِمِنْأَجْرٍ ۖإِنْأَجْرِىَإِلَّاعَلَىٰرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٤٥
And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
146
أَتُتْرَكُونَفِىمَاهَـٰهُنَآءَامِنِينَ١٤٦
Will you be left in what is here, secure [from death],
147
فِىجَنَّـٰتٍۢوَعُيُونٍۢ١٤٧
Within gardens and springs
148
وَزُرُوعٍۢوَنَخْلٍۢطَلْعُهَاهَضِيمٌۭ١٤٨
And fields of crops and palm trees with softened fruit?
149
وَتَنْحِتُونَمِنَٱلْجِبَالِبُيُوتًۭافَـٰرِهِينَ١٤٩
And you carve out of the mountains, homes, with skill.
150
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١٥٠
So fear Allāh and obey me.
151
وَلَاتُطِيعُوٓا۟أَمْرَٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ١٥١
And do not obey the order of the transgressors,
152
ٱلَّذِينَيُفْسِدُونَفِىٱلْأَرْضِوَلَايُصْلِحُونَ١٥٢
Who cause corruption in the land and do not amend."
153
قَالُوٓا۟إِنَّمَآأَنتَمِنَٱلْمُسَحَّرِينَ١٥٣
They said, "You are only of those affected by magic.
154
مَآأَنتَإِلَّابَشَرٌۭمِّثْلُنَافَأْتِبِـَٔايَةٍإِنكُنتَمِنَٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ١٥٤
You are but a man like ourselves, so bring a sign, if you should be of the truthful."
155
قَالَهَـٰذِهِۦنَاقَةٌۭلَّهَاشِرْبٌۭوَلَكُمْشِرْبُيَوْمٍۢمَّعْلُومٍۢ١٥٥
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
وَلَاتَمَسُّوهَابِسُوٓءٍۢفَيَأْخُذَكُمْعَذَابُيَوْمٍعَظِيمٍۢ١٥٦
And do not touch her with harm, lest you be seized by the punishment of a terrible day."
157
فَعَقَرُوهَافَأَصْبَحُوا۟نَـٰدِمِينَ١٥٧
But they hamstrung her and so became regretful.
158
فَأَخَذَهُمُٱلْعَذَابُ ۗإِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ١٥٨
And the punishment seized them. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
159
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ١٥٩
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
160
كَذَّبَتْقَوْمُلُوطٍٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ١٦٠
The people of Lot denied the messengers
161
إِذْقَالَلَهُمْأَخُوهُمْلُوطٌأَلَاتَتَّقُونَ١٦١
When their brother Lot said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?
162
إِنِّىلَكُمْرَسُولٌأَمِينٌۭ١٦٢
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
163
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١٦٣
So fear Allāh and obey me.
164
وَمَآأَسْـَٔلُكُمْعَلَيْهِمِنْأَجْرٍ ۖإِنْأَجْرِىَإِلَّاعَلَىٰرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٦٤
And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
165
أَتَأْتُونَٱلذُّكْرَانَمِنَٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٦٥
Do you approach males among the worlds
166
وَتَذَرُونَمَاخَلَقَلَكُمْرَبُّكُممِّنْأَزْوَٰجِكُم ۚبَلْأَنتُمْقَوْمٌعَادُونَ١٦٦
And leave what your Lord has created for you as mates? But you are a people transgressing."
167
قَالُوا۟لَئِنلَّمْتَنتَهِيَـٰلُوطُلَتَكُونَنَّمِنَٱلْمُخْرَجِينَ١٦٧
They said, "If you do not desist, O Lot, you will surely be of those evicted."
168
قَالَإِنِّىلِعَمَلِكُممِّنَٱلْقَالِينَ١٦٨
He said, "Indeed, I am, toward your deed, of those who detest [it].
169
رَبِّنَجِّنِىوَأَهْلِىمِمَّايَعْمَلُونَ١٦٩
My Lord, save me and my family from [the consequence of] what they do."
170
فَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُوَأَهْلَهُۥٓأَجْمَعِينَ١٧٠
So We saved him and his family, all,
171
إِلَّاعَجُوزًۭافِىٱلْغَـٰبِرِينَ١٧١
Except an old woman among those who remained behind.
172
ثُمَّدَمَّرْنَاٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ١٧٢
Then We destroyed the others.
173
وَأَمْطَرْنَاعَلَيْهِممَّطَرًۭا ۖفَسَآءَمَطَرُٱلْمُنذَرِينَ١٧٣
And We rained upon them a rain [of stones], and evil was the rain of those who were warned.
174
إِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ١٧٤
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
175
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ١٧٥
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
176
كَذَّبَأَصْحَـٰبُلْـَٔيْكَةِٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ١٧٦
The companions of the thicket [i.e., the people of Madyan] denied the messengers
177
إِذْقَالَلَهُمْشُعَيْبٌأَلَاتَتَّقُونَ١٧٧
When Shuʿayb said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?
178
إِنِّىلَكُمْرَسُولٌأَمِينٌۭ١٧٨
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
179
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱللَّهَوَأَطِيعُونِ١٧٩
So fear Allāh and obey me.
180
وَمَآأَسْـَٔلُكُمْعَلَيْهِمِنْأَجْرٍ ۖإِنْأَجْرِىَإِلَّاعَلَىٰرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٨٠
And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
181
۞ أَوْفُوا۟ٱلْكَيْلَوَلَاتَكُونُوا۟مِنَٱلْمُخْسِرِينَ١٨١
Give full measure and do not be of those who cause loss.
182
وَزِنُوا۟بِٱلْقِسْطَاسِٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِ١٨٢
And weigh with an even [i.e., honest] balance.
183
وَلَاتَبْخَسُوا۟ٱلنَّاسَأَشْيَآءَهُمْوَلَاتَعْثَوْا۟فِىٱلْأَرْضِمُفْسِدِينَ١٨٣
And do not deprive people of their due and do not commit abuse on earth, spreading corruption.
184
وَٱتَّقُوا۟ٱلَّذِىخَلَقَكُمْوَٱلْجِبِلَّةَٱلْأَوَّلِينَ١٨٤
And fear He who created you and the former creation."
185
قَالُوٓا۟إِنَّمَآأَنتَمِنَٱلْمُسَحَّرِينَ١٨٥
They said, "You are only of those affected by magic.
186
وَمَآأَنتَإِلَّابَشَرٌۭمِّثْلُنَاوَإِننَّظُنُّكَلَمِنَٱلْكَـٰذِبِينَ١٨٦
You are but a man like ourselves, and indeed, we think you are among the liars.
187
فَأَسْقِطْعَلَيْنَاكِسَفًۭامِّنَٱلسَّمَآءِإِنكُنتَمِنَٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ١٨٧
So cause to fall upon us fragments of the sky, if you should be of the truthful."
188
قَالَرَبِّىٓأَعْلَمُبِمَاتَعْمَلُونَ١٨٨
He said, "My Lord is most knowing of what you do."
189
فَكَذَّبُوهُفَأَخَذَهُمْعَذَابُيَوْمِٱلظُّلَّةِ ۚإِنَّهُۥكَانَعَذَابَيَوْمٍعَظِيمٍ١٨٩
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
إِنَّفِىذَٰلِكَلَـَٔايَةًۭ ۖوَمَاكَانَأَكْثَرُهُممُّؤْمِنِينَ١٩٠
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
191
وَإِنَّرَبَّكَلَهُوَٱلْعَزِيزُٱلرَّحِيمُ١٩١
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
192
وَإِنَّهُۥلَتَنزِيلُرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ١٩٢
And indeed, it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds.
193
نَزَلَبِهِٱلرُّوحُٱلْأَمِينُ١٩٣
The Trustworthy Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] has brought it down
194
عَلَىٰقَلْبِكَلِتَكُونَمِنَٱلْمُنذِرِينَ١٩٤
Upon your heart, [O Muḥammad] - that you may be of the warners
195
بِلِسَانٍعَرَبِىٍّۢمُّبِينٍۢ١٩٥
In a clear Arabic language.
196
وَإِنَّهُۥلَفِىزُبُرِٱلْأَوَّلِينَ١٩٦
And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples.
197
أَوَلَمْيَكُنلَّهُمْءَايَةًأَنيَعْلَمَهُۥعُلَمَـٰٓؤُا۟بَنِىٓإِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ١٩٧
And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel?
198
وَلَوْنَزَّلْنَـٰهُعَلَىٰبَعْضِٱلْأَعْجَمِينَ١٩٨
And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners
199
فَقَرَأَهُۥعَلَيْهِممَّاكَانُوا۟بِهِۦمُؤْمِنِينَ١٩٩
And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it.
200
كَذَٰلِكَسَلَكْنَـٰهُفِىقُلُوبِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ٢٠٠
Thus have We inserted it [i.e., disbelief] into the hearts of the criminals.
201
لَايُؤْمِنُونَبِهِۦحَتَّىٰيَرَوُا۟ٱلْعَذَابَٱلْأَلِيمَ٢٠١
They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment.
202
فَيَأْتِيَهُمبَغْتَةًۭوَهُمْلَايَشْعُرُونَ٢٠٢
And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not.
203
فَيَقُولُوا۟هَلْنَحْنُمُنظَرُونَ٢٠٣
And they will say, "May we be reprieved?"
204
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَايَسْتَعْجِلُونَ٢٠٤
So for Our punishment are they impatient?
205
أَفَرَءَيْتَإِنمَّتَّعْنَـٰهُمْسِنِينَ٢٠٥
Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years
206
ثُمَّجَآءَهُممَّاكَانُوا۟يُوعَدُونَ٢٠٦
And then there came to them that which they were promised?
207
مَآأَغْنَىٰعَنْهُممَّاكَانُوا۟يُمَتَّعُونَ٢٠٧
They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided.
208
وَمَآأَهْلَكْنَامِنقَرْيَةٍإِلَّالَهَامُنذِرُونَ٢٠٨
And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners
209
ذِكْرَىٰوَمَاكُنَّاظَـٰلِمِينَ٢٠٩
As a reminder; and never have We been unjust.
210
وَمَاتَنَزَّلَتْبِهِٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ٢١٠
And the devils have not brought it [i.e., the revelation] down.
211
وَمَايَنۢبَغِىلَهُمْوَمَايَسْتَطِيعُونَ٢١١
It is not allowable for them, nor would they be able.
212
إِنَّهُمْعَنِٱلسَّمْعِلَمَعْزُولُونَ٢١٢
Indeed they, from [its] hearing, are removed.
213
فَلَاتَدْعُمَعَٱللَّهِإِلَـٰهًاءَاخَرَفَتَكُونَمِنَٱلْمُعَذَّبِينَ٢١٣
So do not invoke with Allāh another deity and [thus] be among the punished.
214
وَأَنذِرْعَشِيرَتَكَٱلْأَقْرَبِينَ٢١٤
And warn, [O Muḥammad], your closest kindred.
215
وَٱخْفِضْجَنَاحَكَلِمَنِٱتَّبَعَكَمِنَٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ٢١٥
And lower your wing [i.e., show kindness] to those who follow you of the believers.
216
فَإِنْعَصَوْكَفَقُلْإِنِّىبَرِىٓءٌۭمِّمَّاتَعْمَلُونَ٢١٦
And if they disobey you, then say, "Indeed, I am disassociated from what you are doing."
217
وَتَوَكَّلْعَلَىٱلْعَزِيزِٱلرَّحِيمِ٢١٧
And rely upon the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,
218
ٱلَّذِىيَرَىٰكَحِينَتَقُومُ٢١٨
Who sees you when you arise
219
وَتَقَلُّبَكَفِىٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ٢١٩
And your movement among those who prostrate.
220
إِنَّهُۥهُوَٱلسَّمِيعُٱلْعَلِيمُ٢٢٠
Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
221
هَلْأُنَبِّئُكُمْعَلَىٰمَنتَنَزَّلُٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ٢٢١
Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend?
222
تَنَزَّلُعَلَىٰكُلِّأَفَّاكٍأَثِيمٍۢ٢٢٢
They descend upon every sinful liar.
223
يُلْقُونَٱلسَّمْعَوَأَكْثَرُهُمْكَـٰذِبُونَ٢٢٣
They pass on what is heard, and most of them are liars.
224
وَٱلشُّعَرَآءُيَتَّبِعُهُمُٱلْغَاوُۥنَ٢٢٤
And the poets - [only] the deviators follow them.
225
أَلَمْتَرَأَنَّهُمْفِىكُلِّوَادٍۢيَهِيمُونَ٢٢٥
Do you not see that in every valley they roam
226
وَأَنَّهُمْيَقُولُونَمَالَايَفْعَلُونَ٢٢٦
And that they say what they do not do? -
227
إِلَّاٱلَّذِينَءَامَنُوا۟وَعَمِلُوا۟ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِوَذَكَرُوا۟ٱللَّهَكَثِيرًۭاوَٱنتَصَرُوا۟مِنۢبَعْدِمَاظُلِمُوا۟ ۗوَسَيَعْلَمُٱلَّذِينَظَلَمُوٓا۟أَىَّمُنقَلَبٍۢيَنقَلِبُونَ٢٢٧
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.
