Surah Al-Anbya

اِقْتَرَبَ لِلنَّاسِ حِسَابُهُمْ وَهُمْ فِيْ غَفْلَةٍ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ ۚ ۝١

Iqtaroba lin-nāsi ḥisābuhum wa hum fī ghoflatim mu‘riḍūn

1. Mankind’s reckoning has drawn near, but they turn away heedlessly.

مَا يَأْتِيْهِمْ مِّنْ ذِكْرٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهِمْ مُّحْدَثٍ اِلَّا اسْتَمَعُوْهُ وَهُمْ يَلْعَبُوْنَ ۙ ۝٢

Mā ya'tīhim min żikrim mir robbihim muḥdaṡin illastama‘ūhu wa hum yal‘abūn

2. No fresh reminder comes to them from their Lord, but they listen to it playfully.

لَاهِيَةً قُلُوْبُهُمْۗ وَاَسَرُّوا النَّجْوَىۖ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْاۖ هَلْ هٰذَآ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْۚ اَفَتَأْتُوْنَ السِّحْرَ وَاَنْتُمْ تُبْصِرُوْنَ ۝٣

Lāhiyatan qulūbuhum, wa asarrun-najwal-lażīna ẓolamū, hal hāżā illā basyarum miṡlukum, afa ta'tūnas-siḥro wa antum tubṣirūn

3. Their hearts distracted, the wrongdoers confer secretly, “Is this anything but a mortal like you? Will you take to sorcery, with open eyes?”

قٰلَ رَبِّيْ يَعْلَمُ الْقَوْلَ فِى السَّمَاۤءِ وَالْاَرْضِۖ وَهُوَ السَّمِيْعُ الْعَلِيْمُ ۝٤

Qōla robbī ya‘lamul-qoula fis-samā-i wal-arḍ, wa huwas-samī‘ul-‘alīm

4. He said, “My Lord knows what is said in the heaven and the earth; and He is the Hearer, the Knower.”

بَلْ قَالُوْٓا اَضْغَاثُ اَحْلَامٍۢ بَلِ افْتَرٰىهُ بَلْ هُوَ شَاعِرٌۚ فَلْيَأْتِنَا بِاٰيَةٍ كَمَآ اُرْسِلَ الْاَوَّلُوْنَ ۝٥

Bal qōlū aḍghōṡu aḥlāmim baliftarōhu bal huwa syā‘ir, falya'tinā bi'āyatin kamā ursilal-awwalūn

5. And they said, “A jumble of dreams,” and, “He made it up,” and, “He is a poet.” “Let him bring us a sign, like those sent to the ancients.”

مَآ اٰمَنَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ مِّنْ قَرْيَةٍ اَهْلَكْنٰهَاۚ اَفَهُمْ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ ۝٦

Mā āmanat qoblahum min qoryatin ahlaknāhā, afahum yu'minūn

6. None of the towns We destroyed before them had believed. Will they, then, believe?

وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ اِلَّا رِجَالًا نُّوْحِيْٓ اِلَيْهِمْ فَسْـَٔلُوْٓا اَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ ۝٧

Wa mā arsalnā qoblaka illā rijālan nūḥī ilaihim fas'alū ahlaż-żikri in kuntum lā ta‘lamūn

7. We did not send before you except men, whom We inspired. Ask the people of knowledge, if you do not know.

وَمَا جَعَلْنٰهُمْ جَسَدًا لَّا يَأْكُلُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ وَمَا كَانُوْا خٰلِدِيْنَ ۝٨

Wa mā ja‘alnāhum jasadal lā ya'kulūnaṭ-ṭo‘āma wa mā kānū khōlidīn

8. We did not make them mere bodies that ate no food, nor were they immortal.

ثُمَّ صَدَقْنٰهُمُ الْوَعْدَ فَاَنْجَيْنٰهُمْ وَمَنْ نَّشَاۤءُ وَاَهْلَكْنَا الْمُسْرِفِيْنَ ۝٩

Ṡumma ṣodaqnāhumul-wa‘da fa anjaināhum wa man nasyā-u wa ahlaknal-musrifīn

9. Then We fulfilled Our promise to them, and We saved them together with whomever We willed, and We destroyed the extravagant.

لَقَدْ اَنْزَلْنَآ اِلَيْكُمْ كِتٰبًا فِيْهِ ذِكْرُكُمْۗ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ ࣖ ۝١٠

Laqod anzalnā ilaikum kitāban fīhi żikrukum, afalā ta‘qilūn

10. We have sent down to you a Book, containing your message. Do you not understand?

وَكَمْ قَصَمْنَا مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ كَانَتْ ظَالِمَةً وَّاَنْشَأْنَا بَعْدَهَا قَوْمًا اٰخَرِيْنَ ۝١١

Wa kam qoṣomnā min qoryatin kānat ẓōlimataw wa ansya'nā ba‘dahā qouman ākhorīn

11. How many a guilty town have We crushed, and established thereafter another people?

فَلَمَّآ اَحَسُّوْا بَأْسَنَآ اِذَا هُمْ مِّنْهَا يَرْكُضُوْنَ ۗ ۝١٢

Falammā aḥassū ba'sanā iżā hum minhā yarkuḍūn

12. Then, when they sensed Our might, they started running away from it.

لَا تَرْكُضُوْا وَارْجِعُوْٓا اِلٰى مَآ اُتْرِفْتُمْ فِيْهِ وَمَسٰكِنِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْـَٔلُوْنَ ۝١٣

Lā tarkuḍū warji‘ū ilā mā utriftum fīhi wa masākinikum la‘allakum tus'alūn

13. Do not run, but come back to your luxuries, and to your homes, that you may be questioned.

قَالُوْا يٰوَيْلَنَآ اِنَّا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِيْنَ ۝١٤

Qōlū yā wailanā innā kunnā ẓōlimīn

14. They said, “Woe to us; we were unfair.”

فَمَا زَالَتْ تِّلْكَ دَعْوٰىهُمْ حَتّٰى جَعَلْنٰهُمْ حَصِيْدًا خٰمِدِيْنَ ۝١٥

Famā zālat tilka da‘wāhum ḥattā ja‘alnāhum ḥaṣīdan khōmidīn

15. This continued to be their cry, until We made them silent ashes.

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاۤءَ وَالْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لٰعِبِيْنَ ۝١٦

Wa mā kholaqnas-samā-a wal-arḍo wa mā bainahumā lā‘ibīn

16. We did not create the sky and the earth and what is between them for amusement.

لَوْ اَرَدْنَآ اَنْ نَّتَّخِذَ لَهْوًا لَّاتَّخَذْنٰهُ مِنْ لَّدُنَّآ ۖاِنْ كُنَّا فٰعِلِيْنَ ۝١٧

Lau arodnā an nattakhiża lahwal lattakhożnāhum mil ladunnā, in kunnā fā‘ilīn

17. If We wanted amusement, We could have found it within Us, were We to do so.

بَلْ نَقْذِفُ بِالْحَقِّ عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ فَيَدْمَغُهٗ فَاِذَا هُوَ زَاهِقٌۗ وَلَكُمُ الْوَيْلُ مِمَّا تَصِفُوْنَ ۝١٨

Bal naqżifu bil-ḥaqqi ‘alal-bāṭili fa yadmaghuhū fa iżā huwa zāhiq, wa lakumul-wailu mimmā taṣifūn

18. In fact, We hurl the truth against falsehood, and it crushes it, so it vanishes. Woe unto you, for what you describe.

وَلَهٗ مَنْ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهٗ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُوْنَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهٖ وَلَا يَسْتَحْسِرُوْنَ ۚ ۝١٩

Wa lahū man fis-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wa man ‘indahū lā yastakbirūna ‘an ‘ibādatihī wa lā yastaḥsirūn

19. To Him belongs everyone in the heavens and the earth. Those near Him are not too proud to worship Him, nor do they waver.

يُسَبِّحُوْنَ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لَا يَفْتُرُوْنَ ۝٢٠

Yusabbiḥūnal-laila wan-nahāro wa lā yafturūn

20. They praise night and day, without ever tiring.

اَمِ اتَّخَذُوْٓا اٰلِهَةً مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ هُمْ يُنْشِرُوْنَ ۝٢١

Amittakhożū ālihatam minal-arḍi hum yunsyirūn

21. Or have they taken to themselves gods from the earth who resurrect?

لَوْ كَانَ فِيْهِمَآ اٰلِهَةٌ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ لَفَسَدَتَاۚ فَسُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوْنَ ۝٢٢

Lau kāna fīhimā ālihatun illallāhu lafasadatā, fa subḥānallāhi robbil-‘arsyi ‘ammā yaṣifūn

22. If there were in them gods other than Allah, they would have gone to ruin. So glory be to Allah, Lord of the Throne, beyond what they allege.

لَا يُسْـَٔلُ عَمَّا يَفْعَلُ وَهُمْ يُسْـَٔلُوْنَ ۝٢٣

Lā yus'alu ‘ammā yaf‘alu wa hum yus'alūn

23. He will not be questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned.

اَمِ اتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖٓ اٰلِهَةً ۗقُلْ هَاتُوْا بُرْهَانَكُمْۚ هٰذَا ذِكْرُ مَنْ مَّعِيَ وَذِكْرُ مَنْ قَبْلِيْۗ بَلْ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَۙ الْحَقَّ فَهُمْ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ ۝٢٤

Amittakhożū min dūnihī ālihah, qul hātū burhānakum, hāżā żikru mam ma‘iya wa żikru man qoblī, bal akṡaruhum lā ya‘lamūnal-ḥaqqo fahum mu‘riḍūn

24. Or have they taken, besides Him, other gods? Say, “Bring your proof. This is a message for those with me, and a message of those before me.” But most of them do not know the truth, so they turn away.

وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ اِلَّا نُوْحِيْٓ اِلَيْهِ اَنَّهٗ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّآ اَنَا۠ فَاعْبُدُوْنِ ۝٢٥

Wa mā arsalnā min qoblika mir rosūlin illā nūḥī ilaihi annahū lā ilāha illā ana fa‘budūn

25. We never sent a messenger before you without inspiring him that: “There is no god but I, so worship Me.”

وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَلَدًا سُبْحٰنَهٗ ۗبَلْ عِبَادٌ مُّكْرَمُوْنَ ۙ ۝٢٦

Wa qōluttakhożar-roḥmānu waladan subḥānah, bal ‘ibādum mukromūn

26. And they say, “The Most Merciful has taken to Himself a son.” Be He glorified; they are but honored servants.

لَا يَسْبِقُوْنَهٗ بِالْقَوْلِ وَهُمْ بِاَمْرِهٖ يَعْمَلُوْنَ ۝٢٧

Lā yasbiqūnahū bil-qouli wa hum bi'amrihī ya‘malūn

27. They never speak before He has spoken, and they only act on His command.

يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا يَشْفَعُوْنَۙ اِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضٰى وَهُمْ مِّنْ خَشْيَتِهٖ مُشْفِقُوْنَ ۝٢٨

Ya‘lamū mā baina aidīhim wa mā kholfahum wa lā yasyfa‘ūna illā limanirtaḍō wa hum min khosy-yatihī musyfiqūn

28. He knows what is before them, and what is behind them; and they do not intercede except for him whom He approves; and they tremble in awe of Him.

وَمَنْ يَّقُلْ مِنْهُمْ اِنِّيْٓ اِلٰهٌ مِّنْ دُوْنِهٖ فَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِيْهِ جَهَنَّمَۗ كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ࣖ ۝٢٩

Wa may yaqul minhum innī ilāhun min dūnihī fa żālika najzīhi jahannam, każālika najziẓ-ẓōlimīn

29. And whoever of them says, “I am a god besides Him,” We will reward him with Hell. Thus We reward the wrongdoers.

اَوَلَمْ يَرَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اَنَّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ كَانَتَا رَتْقًا فَفَتَقْنٰهُمَاۗ وَجَعَلْنَا مِنَ الْمَاۤءِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَيٍّۗ اَفَلَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ ۝٣٠

Awalam yarol-lażīna kafarū annas-samāwāti wal-arḍo kānatā rotqon fa fataqnāhumā, wa ja‘alnā minal-mā-i kulla syai'in ḥayy, afalā yu'minūn

30. Do the disbelievers not see that the heavens and the earth were one mass, and We tore them apart? And We made from water every living thing. Will they not believe?

وَجَعَلْنَا فِى الْاَرْضِ رَوَاسِيَ اَنْ تَمِيْدَ بِهِمْۖ وَجَعَلْنَا فِيْهَا فِجَاجًا سُبُلًا لَّعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُوْنَ ۝٣١

Wa ja‘alnā fil-arḍi rowāsiya an tamīda bihim, wa ja‘anā fīhā fijājan subulal la‘allahum yahtadūn

31. And We placed on earth stabilizers, lest it sways with them, and We placed therein signposts and passages, that they may be guided.

وَجَعَلْنَا السَّمَاۤءَ سَقْفًا مَّحْفُوْظًاۚ وَهُمْ عَنْ اٰيٰتِهَا مُعْرِضُوْنَ ۝٣٢

Wa ja‘alnas-samā-a saqfam maḥfūẓō, wa hum ‘an āyātihā mu‘riḍūn

32. And We made the sky a protected ceiling; yet they turn away from its wonders.

وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَۗ كُلٌّ فِيْ فَلَكٍ يَّسْبَحُوْنَ ۝٣٣

Wa huwal-lażī kholaqol-laila wan-nahāro wasy-syamsa wal-qomar, kullun fī falakiy yasbaḥūn

33. It is He who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; each floating in an orbit.

وَمَا جَعَلْنَا لِبَشَرٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ الْخُلْدَۗ اَفَا۟ىِٕنْ مِّتَّ فَهُمُ الْخٰلِدُوْنَ ۝٣٤

Wa mā ja‘alnā libasyarim min qoblikal-khuld, afa'im mitta fahumul-khōlidūn

34. We did not grant immortality to any human being before you. Should you die, are they then the immortal?

كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَاۤىِٕقَةُ الْمَوْتِۗ وَنَبْلُوْكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً ۗوَاِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُوْنَ ۝٣٥

Kullu nafsin żā-iqotul-maut, wa nablūkum bisy-syarri wal-khoiri fitnah, wa ilainā turja‘ūn

35. Every soul will taste death. We burden you with adversity and prosperity—a test. And to Us you will be returned.

وَاِذَا رَاٰكَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اِنْ يَّتَّخِذُوْنَكَ اِلَّا هُزُوًاۗ اَهٰذَا الَّذِيْ يَذْكُرُ اٰلِهَتَكُمْۚ وَهُمْ بِذِكْرِ الرَّحْمٰنِ هُمْ كٰفِرُوْنَ ۝٣٦

Wa iżā ro'ākal-lażīna kafarū iy yattakhiżūnaka illā huzuwā, ahāżal-lażī yażkuru ālihatakum, wa hum biżikrir-roḥmāni hum kāfirūn

36. When those who disbelieve see you, they treat you only with ridicule: “Is this the one who mentions your gods?” And they reject the mention of the Merciful.

خُلِقَ الْاِنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍۗ سَاُورِيْكُمْ اٰيٰتِيْ فَلَا تَسْتَعْجِلُوْنِ ۝٣٧

Khuliqol-insānu min ‘ajal, sa'urīkum āyātī falā tasta‘jilūn

37. The human being was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not seek to rush Me.

وَيَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰى هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ ۝٣٨

Wa yaqūlūna matā hāżal-wa‘du in kuntum ṣōdiqīn

38. And they say, “When will this promise come true, if you are truthful?”

لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا حِيْنَ لَا يَكُفُّوْنَ عَنْ وُّجُوْهِهِمُ النَّارَ وَلَا عَنْ ظُهُوْرِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُنْصَرُوْنَ ۝٣٩

Lau ya‘lamul-lażīna kafarū ḥīna lā yakuffūna ‘aw wujūhihimun nāro wa lā ‘an ẓuhūrihim wa lā hum yunṣorūn

39. If those who disbelieve only knew, when they cannot keep the fire off their faces and off their backs, and they will not be helped.

بَلْ تَأْتِيْهِمْ بَغْتَةً فَتَبْهَتُهُمْ فَلَا يَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ رَدَّهَا وَلَا هُمْ يُنْظَرُوْنَ ۝٤٠

Bal ta'tīhim baghtatan fa tabhatuhum falā yastaṭī‘ūna roddahā wa lā hum yunẓorūn

40. In fact, it will come upon them suddenly, and bewilder them. They will not be able to repel it, and they will not be reprieved.

وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِالَّذِيْنَ سَخِرُوْا مِنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ يَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٤١

Wa laqodistuhzi'a birusulim min qoblika fa ḥāqo bil-lażīna sakhirū minhum mā kānū bihī yastahzi'ūn

41. Messengers before you were also ridiculed, but those who jeered were surrounded by what they had ridiculed.

قُلْ مَنْ يَّكْلَؤُكُمْ بِالَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ مِنَ الرَّحْمٰنِۗ بَلْ هُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِمْ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ ۝٤٢

Qul may yakla'ukum bil-laili wan-nahāri minar-roḥmān, bal hum ‘an żikrihim mu‘riḍūn

42. Say, “Who guards you against the Merciful by night and by day?” But they turn away from the mention of their Lord.

اَمْ لَهُمْ اٰلِهَةٌ تَمْنَعُهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِنَاۗ لَا يَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ نَصْرَ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ مِّنَّا يُصْحَبُوْنَ ۝٤٣

Am lahum ālihatun tamna‘uhum min dūninā, lā yastaṭī‘ūna naṣro anfusihim wa lā hum minnā yuṣḥabūn

43. Or do they have gods who can defend them against Us? They cannot help themselves, nor will they be protected from Us.

بَلْ مَتَّعْنَا هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ وَاٰبَاۤءَهُمْ حَتّٰى طَالَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعُمُرُۗ اَفَلَا يَرَوْنَ اَنَّا نَأْتِى الْاَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ اَطْرَافِهَاۗ اَفَهُمُ الْغٰلِبُوْنَ ۝٤٤

Bal matta‘nā hā-ulā-i wa ābā-ahum ḥattā ṭōla ‘alaihimul-‘umur, afalā yarouna annā na'til-arḍo nanquṣuhā min aṭrōfihā, afahumul-ghōlibūn

44. We have given these enjoyments, and their ancestors, until time grew long upon them. Do they not see how We gradually reduce the land from its extremities? Are they then the victors?

قُلْ اِنَّمَآ اُنْذِرُكُمْ بِالْوَحْيِۖ وَلَا يَسْمَعُ الصُّمُّ الدُّعَاۤءَ اِذَا مَا يُنْذَرُوْنَ ۝٤٥

Qul innamā unżirukum bil-waḥy, wa lā yasma‘uṣ-ṣummud-du‘ā-a iżā mā yunżarūn

45. Say, “I am warning you through inspiration.” But the deaf cannot hear the call when they are being warned.

وَلَىِٕنْ مَّسَّتْهُمْ نَفْحَةٌ مِّنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّكَ لَيَقُوْلُنَّ يٰوَيْلَنَآ اِنَّا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٤٦

Wa la'im massat-hum nafḥatum min ‘ażābi robbika layaqūlunna yā wailanā innā kunnā ẓōlimīn

46. And when a breath of your Lord’s punishment touches them, they say, “Woe to us, we were truly wicked.”

وَنَضَعُ الْمَوَازِيْنَ الْقِسْطَ لِيَوْمِ الْقِيٰمَةِ فَلَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْـًٔاۗ وَاِنْ كَانَ مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنْ خَرْدَلٍ اَتَيْنَا بِهَاۗ وَكَفٰى بِنَا حٰسِبِيْنَ ۝٤٧

Wa naḍo‘ul-mawāzīnal-qisṭo liyaumil-qiyāmati falā tuẓlamu nafsun syai'ā, wa in kāna miṡqōla ḥabbatim min khordalin atainā bihā, wa kafā binā ḥāsibīn

47. We will set up the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so that no soul will suffer the least injustice. And even if it be the weight of a mustard-seed, We will bring it up. Sufficient are We as Reckoners.

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوْسٰى وَهٰرُوْنَ الْفُرْقَانَ وَضِيَاۤءً وَّذِكْرًا لِّلْمُتَّقِيْنَ ۙ ۝٤٨

Wa laqod ātainā mūsā wa hārūnal-furqōna wa ḍiyā-aw wa żikrol lil-muttaqīn

48. We gave Moses and Aaron the Criterion, and illumination, and a reminder for the righteous.

الَّذِيْنَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَيْبِ وَهُمْ مِّنَ السَّاعَةِ مُشْفِقُوْنَ ۝٤٩

Allażīna yakhsyauna robbahum bil-ghoibi wa hum minas-sā‘ati musyfiqūn

49. Those who fear their Lord in private, and are apprehensive of the Hour.

وَهٰذَا ذِكْرٌ مُّبٰرَكٌ اَنْزَلْنٰهُۗ اَفَاَنْتُمْ لَهٗ مُنْكِرُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٥٠

Wa hāżā żikrum mubārokun anzalnāh, afa antum lahū munkirūn

50. This too is a blessed message that We revealed. Are you going to deny it?

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَآ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ رُشْدَهٗ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَكُنَّا بِهٖ عٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٥١

Wa laqod ātainā ibrōhīma rusydahū min qoblu wa kunnā bihī ‘ālimīn

51. We gave Abraham his integrity formerly, and We knew him well.

اِذْ قَالَ لِاَبِيْهِ وَقَوْمِهٖ مَا هٰذِهِ التَّمَاثِيْلُ الَّتِيْٓ اَنْتُمْ لَهَا عٰكِفُوْنَ ۝٥٢

Iż qōla li'abīhi wa qoumihī mā hāżihit-tamāṡīlul-latī antum lahā ‘ākifūn

52. When he said to his father and his people, “What are these statues to which you are devoted?”

قَالُوْا وَجَدْنَآ اٰبَاۤءَنَا لَهَا عٰبِدِيْنَ ۝٥٣

Qōlū wajadnā ābā-anā lahā ‘ābidīn

53. They said, “We found our parents worshiping them.”

قَالَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُمْ اَنْتُمْ وَاٰبَاۤؤُكُمْ فِيْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيْنٍ ۝٥٤

Qōla laqod kuntum antum wa ābā-ukum fī ḍolālim mubīn

54. He said, “You and your parents are in evident error.”

قَالُوْٓا اَجِئْتَنَا بِالْحَقِّ اَمْ اَنْتَ مِنَ اللّٰعِبِيْنَ ۝٥٥

Qōlū aji'tanā bil-ḥaqqi am anta minal-lā‘ibīn

55. They said, “Are you telling us the truth, or are you just playing?”

قَالَ بَلْ رَّبُّكُمْ رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ الَّذِيْ فَطَرَهُنَّۖ وَاَنَا۠ عَلٰى ذٰلِكُمْ مِّنَ الشّٰهِدِيْنَ ۝٥٦

Qōla bar robbukum robbus-samāwāti wal-arḍil-lażī faṭorohunn, wa ana ‘alā żālikum minasy-syāhidīn

56. He said, “Your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the One who created them, and I bear witness to that.

وَتَاللّٰهِ لَاَكِيْدَنَّ اَصْنَامَكُمْ بَعْدَ اَنْ تُوَلُّوْا مُدْبِرِيْنَ ۝٥٧

Wa tallāhi la'akīdanna aṣnāmakum ba‘da an tuwallū mudbirīn

57. By Allah, I will have a plan for your statues after you have gone away.”

فَجَعَلَهُمْ جُذٰذًا اِلَّا كَبِيْرًا لَّهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ اِلَيْهِ يَرْجِعُوْنَ ۝٥٨

Fa ja‘alahum jużāżan illā kabīrol lahum la‘allahum ilaihi yarji‘ūn

58. So he reduced them into pieces, except for their biggest, that they may return to it.

قَالُوْا مَنْ فَعَلَ هٰذَا بِاٰلِهَتِنَآ اِنَّهٗ لَمِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٥٩

Qōlū man fa‘ala hāżā bi'ālihatinā innahū laminaẓ-ẓōlimīn

59. They said, “Who did this to our gods? He is certainly one of the wrongdoers.”

قَالُوْا سَمِعْنَا فَتًى يَّذْكُرُهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهٗٓ اِبْرٰهِيْمُ ۗ ۝٦٠

Qōlū sami‘nā fatay yażkuruhum yuqōlu lahū ibrōhīm

60. They said, “We heard a youth mentioning them. He is called Abraham.”

قَالُوْا فَأْتُوْا بِهٖ عَلٰٓى اَعْيُنِ النَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَشْهَدُوْنَ ۝٦١

Qōlū fa'tū bihī ‘alā a‘yunin-nāsi la‘allahum yasyhadūn

61. They said, “Bring him before the eyes of the people, so that they may witness.”

Qōlū a'anta fa‘alta hāżā bi'ālihatinā yā ibrōhīm

62. They said, “Are you the one who did this to our gods, O Abraham?”

قَالَ بَلْ فَعَلَهٗ كَبِيْرُهُمْ هٰذَا فَسْـَٔلُوْهُمْ اِنْ كَانُوْا يَنْطِقُوْنَ ۝٦٣

Qōla bal fa‘alahū kabīruhum hāżā fas'alūhum in kānū yanṭiqūn

63. He said, “But it was this biggest of them that did it. Ask them, if they can speak.”

فَرَجَعُوْٓا اِلٰٓى اَنْفُسِهِمْ فَقَالُوْٓا اِنَّكُمْ اَنْتُمُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ ۙ ۝٦٤

Fa roja‘ū ilā anfusihim fa qōlū innakum antumuẓ-ẓōlimūn

64. Then they turned to one another, and said, “You yourselves are the wrongdoers.”

ثُمَّ نُكِسُوْا عَلٰى رُءُوْسِهِمْۚ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ يَنْطِقُوْنَ ۝٦٥

Ṡumma nukisū ‘alā ru'ūsihim, laqod ‘alimta mā hā-ulā-i yanṭiqūn

65. But they reverted to their old ideas: “You certainly know that these do not speak.”

قَالَ اَفَتَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَنْفَعُكُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَّلَا يَضُرُّكُمْ ۗ ۝٦٦

Qōla afata‘budūna min dūnillāhi mā lā yanfa‘ukum syai'aw wa lā yaḍurrukum

66. He said, “Do you worship, instead of Allah, what can neither benefit you in anything, nor harm you?

اُفٍّ لَّكُمْ وَلِمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ ۗاَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ ۝٦٧

Uffil lakum wa limā ta‘budūna min dūnillāh, afalā ta‘qilūn

67. Fie on you, and on what you worship instead of Allah. Do you not understand?”

قَالُوْا حَرِّقُوْهُ وَانْصُرُوْٓا اٰلِهَتَكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ فٰعِلِيْنَ ۝٦٨

Qulnā yā nāru kūnī bardaw wa salāman ‘alā ibrōhīm

69. We said, “O fire, be coolness and safety upon Abraham.”

وَاَرَادُوْا بِهٖ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنٰهُمُ الْاَخْسَرِيْنَ ۚ ۝٧٠

Wa arōdū bihī kaidan fa ja‘alnāhumul-akhsarīn

70. They planned to harm him, but We made them the worst losers.

وَنَجَّيْنٰهُ وَلُوْطًا اِلَى الْاَرْضِ الَّتِيْ بٰرَكْناَ فِيْهَا لِلْعٰلَمِيْنَ ۝٧١

Wa najjaināhu wa lūṭon ilal-arḍil-latī bāroknā fīhā lil-‘ālamīn

71. And We delivered him, and Lot, to the land that We blessed for all people.

وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗٓ اِسْحٰقَ وَيَعْقُوْبَ نَافِلَةً ۗوَكُلًّا جَعَلْنَا صٰلِحِيْنَ ۝٧٢

Wa wahabnā lahū isḥāqo wa ya‘qūba nāfilah, wa kullan ja‘alnā ṣōliḥīn

72. And We granted him Isaac and Jacob as a gift; and each We made righteous.

وَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَىِٕمَّةً يَّهْدُوْنَ بِاَمْرِنَا وَاَوْحَيْنَآ اِلَيْهِمْ فِعْلَ الْخَيْرٰتِ وَاِقَامَ الصَّلٰوةِ وَاِيْتَاۤءَ الزَّكٰوةِۚ وَكَانُوْا لَنَا عٰبِدِيْنَ ۙ ۝٧٣

Wa ja‘alnāhum a'immatay yahdūna bi'amrinā wa auḥainā ilaihim fi‘lal-khoirōti wa iqōmaṣ-ṣolāti wa ītā-az-zakāh, wa kānū lanā ‘ābidīn

73. And We made them leaders, guiding by Our command; and We inspired them to do good works, and to observe the prayer, and to give out charity. They were devoted servants to Us.

وَلُوْطًا اٰتَيْنٰهُ حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًا وَّنَجَّيْنٰهُ مِنَ الْقَرْيَةِ الَّتِيْ كَانَتْ تَّعْمَلُ الْخَبٰۤىِٕثَ ۗاِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فٰسِقِيْنَۙ ۝٧٤

Wa lūṭon ātaināhu ḥumkaw wa ‘ilmaw wa najjaināhu minal-qoryatil-latī kānat ta‘malul-khobā-iṡ, innahum kānū qouma sau'in fāsiqīn

74. And Lot—We gave him judgment and knowledge, and We delivered him from the town that practiced the abominations. They were wicked and perverted people.

وَاَدْخَلْنٰهُ فِيْ رَحْمَتِنَاۗ اِنَّهٗ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ ࣖ ۝٧٥

Wa adkholnāhu fī roḥmatinā, innahū minaṣ-ṣōliḥīn

75. And We admitted him into Our mercy; for he was one of the righteous.

وَنُوْحًا اِذْ نَادٰى مِنْ قَبْلُ فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ فَنَجَّيْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗ مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيْمِ ۚ ۝٧٦

Wa nūḥan iż nādā min qoblu fastajabnā lahū fa najjaināhu wa ahlahū minal-karbil-‘aẓīm

76. And Noah, when he called before. So We answered him, and delivered him and his family from the great disaster.

وَنَصَرْنٰهُ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِيْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِنَاۗ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فَاَغْرَقْنٰهُمْ اَجْمَعِيْنَ ۝٧٧

Wa naṣornāhu minal-qoumil-lażīna każżabū bi'āyātinā, innahum kānū qouma sau'in fa aghroqnāhum ajma‘īn

77. And We supported him against the people who rejected Our signs. They were an evil people, so We drowned them all.

وَدَاوٗدَ وَسُلَيْمٰنَ اِذْ يَحْكُمٰنِ فِى الْحَرْثِ اِذْ نَفَشَتْ فِيْهِ غَنَمُ الْقَوْمِۚ وَكُنَّا لِحُكْمِهِمْ شٰهِدِيْنَ ۖ ۝٧٨

Wa dāwūda wa sulaimāna iż yaḥkumāni fil-ḥarṡi iż nafasyat fīhi ghonamul-qoum, wa kunnā liḥukmihim syāhidīn

78. And David and Solomon, when they gave judgment in the case of the field, when some people’s sheep wandered therein by night; and We were witnesses to their judgment.

فَفَهَّمْنٰهَا سُلَيْمٰنَۚ وَكُلًّا اٰتَيْنَا حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًاۖ وَّسَخَّرْنَا مَعَ دَاوٗدَ الْجِبَالَ يُسَبِّحْنَ وَالطَّيْرَۗ وَكُنَّا فٰعِلِيْنَ ۝٧٩

Fa fahhamnāhā sulaimān, wa kullan ātainā ḥukmaw wa ‘ilmā, wa sakhkhornā ma‘a dāwūdal-jibāla yusabbiḥna waṭ-ṭoir, wa kunnā fā‘ilīn

79. And so We made Solomon understand it, and to each We gave wisdom and knowledge. And We subjected the mountains along with David to sing Our praises, and the birds as well—surely We did.

وَعَلَّمْنٰهُ صَنْعَةَ لَبُوْسٍ لَّكُمْ لِتُحْصِنَكُمْ مِّنْۢ بَأْسِكُمْۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ شٰكِرُوْنَ ۝٨٠

Wa ‘allamnāhu ṣon‘ata labūsil lakum lituḥṣinakum mim ba'sikum, fahal antum syākirūn

80. And We taught him the making of shields for you, to protect you from your violence. Are you, then, appreciative?

وَلِسُلَيْمٰنَ الرِّيْحَ عَاصِفَةً تَجْرِيْ بِاَمْرِهٖٓ اِلَى الْاَرْضِ الَّتِيْ بٰرَكْنَا فِيْهَاۗ وَكُنَّا بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٨١

Wa lisulaimānar-rīḥa ‘āṣifatan tajrī bi'amrihī ilal-arḍil-latī bāroknā fīhā, wa kunnā bikulli syai'in ‘ālimīn

81. And to Solomon the stormy wind, blowing at his command towards the land that We have blessed. We are aware of everything.

وَمِنَ الشَّيٰطِيْنِ مَنْ يَّغُوْصُوْنَ لَهٗ وَيَعْمَلُوْنَ عَمَلًا دُوْنَ ذٰلِكَۚ وَكُنَّا لَهُمْ حٰفِظِيْنَ ۙ ۝٨٢

Wa minasy-syayāṭīna may yaghūṣūna lahū wa ya‘malūna ‘amalan dūna żālik, wa kunnā lahum ḥāfiẓīn

82. And of the devils were some that dived for him, and performed other, lesser tasks. But We kept them restrained.

وَاَيُّوْبَ اِذْ نَادٰى رَبَّهٗٓ اَنِّيْ مَسَّنِيَ الضُّرُّ وَاَنْتَ اَرْحَمُ الرّٰحِمِيْنَ ۚ ۝٨٣

Wa ayyūba iż nādā robbahū annī massaniyaḍ-ḍurru wa anta arḥamur-rōḥimīn

83. And Job, when he cried out to his Lord: “Great harm has afflicted me, and You are the Most Merciful of the merciful.”

فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ فَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهٖ مِنْ ضُرٍّ وَّاٰتَيْنٰهُ اَهْلَهٗ وَمِثْلَهُمْ مَّعَهُمْ رَحْمَةً مِّنْ عِنْدِنَا وَذِكْرٰى لِلْعٰبِدِيْنَ ۚ ۝٨٤

Fastajabnā lahū fa kasyafnā mā bihī min ḍurriw wa ātaināhu ahlahū wa miṡlahum ma‘ahum roḥmatam min ‘indinā wa żikrō lil-‘ābidīn

84. So We answered him, lifted his suffering, and restored his family to him, and their like with them—a mercy from Us, and a reminder for the worshipers.

وَاِسْمٰعِيْلَ وَاِدْرِيْسَ وَذَا الْكِفْلِۗ كُلٌّ مِّنَ الصّٰبِرِيْنَ ۙ ۝٨٥

Wa ismā‘īla wa idrīsa wa żal-kifl, kullum minaṣ-ṣōbirīn

85. And Ishmael, and Enoch, and Ezekiel; each was one of the steadfast.

وَاَدْخَلْنٰهُمْ فِيْ رَحْمَتِنَاۗ اِنَّهُمْ مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ ۝٨٦

Wa adkholnāhum fī roḥmatinā, innahum minaṣ-ṣōliḥīn

86. And We admitted them into Our mercy. They were among the righteous.

وَذَا النُّوْنِ اِذْ ذَّهَبَ مُغَاضِبًا فَظَنَّ اَنْ لَّنْ نَّقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ فَنَادٰى فِى الظُّلُمٰتِ اَنْ لَّآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّآ اَنْتَ سُبْحٰنَكَ اِنِّيْ كُنْتُ مِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۚ ۝٨٧

Wa żan-nūni iż żahaba mughōḍiban fa ẓonna allan naqdiro ‘alaihi fa nādā fiẓ-ẓulumāti allā ilāha illā anta subḥānaka innī kuntu minaẓ-ẓōlimīn

87. And Jonah, when he stormed out in fury, thinking We had no power over him. But then he cried out in the darkness, “There is no god but You! Glory to You! I was one of the wrongdoers!”

فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗۙ وَنَجَّيْنٰهُ مِنَ الْغَمِّۗ وَكَذٰلِكَ نُـْۨجِى الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ ۝٨٨

Fastajabnā lahū wa najjaināhu minal-ghomm, wa każālika nunjil-mu'minīn

88. So We answered him, and saved him from the affliction. Thus We save the faithful.

وَزَكَرِيَّآ اِذْ نَادٰى رَبَّهٗ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِيْ فَرْدًا وَّاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوٰرِثِيْنَ ۚ ۝٨٩

Wa zakariyyā iż nādā robbahū robbi lā tażarnī fardaw wa anta khoirul-wāriṡīn

89. And Zechariah, when he called out to his Lord, “My Lord, do not leave me alone, even though You are the Best of heirs.”

فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ ۖوَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗ يَحْيٰى وَاَصْلَحْنَا لَهٗ زَوْجَهٗۗ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا يُسٰرِعُوْنَ فِى الْخَيْرٰتِ وَيَدْعُوْنَنَا رَغَبًا وَّرَهَبًاۗ وَكَانُوْا لَنَا خٰشِعِيْنَ ۝٩٠

Fastajabnā lah, wa wahabnā lahū yaḥyā wa aṣlaḥnā lahū zaujah, innahum kānū yusāri‘ūna fil-khoirōti wa yad‘ūnanā roghobaw wa rohabā, wa kānū lanā khōsyi‘īn

90. So We answered him, and gave him John. And We cured his wife for him. They used to vie in doing righteous deeds, and used to call on Us in love and awe, and they used to humble themselves to Us.

وَالَّتِيْٓ اَحْصَنَتْ فَرْجَهَا فَنَفَخْنَا فِيْهَا مِنْ رُّوْحِنَا وَجَعَلْنٰهَا وَابْنَهَآ اٰيَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِيْنَ ۝٩١

Wal-latī aḥṣonat farjahā fa nafakhnā fīhā mir rūḥinā wa ja‘alnāhā wabnahā āyatal lil-‘ālamīn

91. And she who guarded her virginity. We breathed into her of Our spirit, and made her and her son a sign to the world.

اِنَّ هٰذِهٖٓ اُمَّتُكُمْ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةًۖ وَّاَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوْنِ ۝٩٢

Inna hāżihī ummatukum ummataw wāḥidah, wa ana robbukum fa‘budūn

92. This community of yours is one community, and I am your Lord, so worship Me.

وَتَقَطَّعُوْٓا اَمْرَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْۗ كُلٌّ اِلَيْنَا رٰجِعُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٩٣

Wa taqoṭṭo‘ū amrohum bainahum, kullun ilainā rōji‘ūn

93. But they splintered themselves into factions. They will all return to Us.

فَمَنْ يَّعْمَلْ مِنَ الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَا كُفْرَانَ لِسَعْيِهٖۚ وَاِنَّا لَهٗ كٰتِبُوْنَ ۝٩٤

Famay ya‘mal minaṣ-ṣōliḥāti wa huwa mu'minun falā kufrōna lisa‘yih, wa innā lahū kātibūn

94. Whoever does righteous deeds, and is a believer, his effort will not be denied. We are writing it down for him.

وَحَرٰمٌ عَلٰى قَرْيَةٍ اَهْلَكْنٰهَآ اَنَّهُمْ لَا يَرْجِعُوْنَ ۝٩٥

Wa ḥarōmun ‘alā qoryatin ahlaknāhā, innahum lā yarji‘ūn

95. There is a ban on the town that We had destroyed—that they will not return.

حَتّٰىٓ اِذَا فُتِحَتْ يَأْجُوْجُ وَمَأْجُوْجُ وَهُمْ مِّنْ كُلِّ حَدَبٍ يَّنْسِلُوْنَ ۝٩٦

Ḥattā iżā futiḥat ya'jūju wa ma'jūju wa hum min kulli ḥadabiy yansilūn

96. Until, when Gog and Magog are let loose, and they swarm down from every mound.

وَاقْتَرَبَ الْوَعْدُ الْحَقُّ فَاِذَا هِيَ شَاخِصَةٌ اَبْصَارُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْاۗ يٰوَيْلَنَا قَدْ كُنَّا فِيْ غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هٰذَا بَلْ كُنَّا ظٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٩٧

Waqtarobal-wa‘dul-ḥaqqu fa iżā hiya syākhiṣotun abṣōrul-lażīna kafarū, yā wailanā qod kunnā fī ghoflatim min hāżā bal kunnā ẓōlimīn

97. The promise of truth has drawn near. The eyes of those who disbelieved will stare in horror: “Woe to us. We were oblivious to this. In fact, we were wrongdoers.”

اِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ حَصَبُ جَهَنَّمَۗ اَنْتُمْ لَهَا وٰرِدُوْنَ ۝٩٨

Innakum wa mā ta‘budūna min dūnillāhi ḥaṣobu jahannam, antum lahā wāridūn

98. You and what you worship besides Allah are fuel for Hell. You will descend into it.

لَوْ كَانَ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ اٰلِهَةً مَّا وَرَدُوْهَاۗ وَكُلٌّ فِيْهَا خٰلِدُوْنَ ۝٩٩

Lau kāna hā-ulā-i ālihatam mā warodūhā, wa kullun fīhā khōlidūn

99. Had these been gods, they would not have descended into it. All will abide in it.

لَهُمْ فِيْهَا زَفِيْرٌ وَّهُمْ فِيْهَا لَا يَسْمَعُوْنَ ۝١٠٠

Lahum fīhā zafīruw wa hum fīhā lā yasma‘ūn

100. In it they will wail. In it they will not hear.

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ سَبَقَتْ لَهُمْ مِّنَّا الْحُسْنٰىٓۙ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ عَنْهَا مُبْعَدُوْنَ ۙ ۝١٠١

Innal-lażīna sabaqot lahum minnal-ḥusnā, ulā-ika ‘anhā mub‘adūn

101. As for those who deserved goodness from Us—these will be kept away from it.

لَا يَسْمَعُوْنَ حَسِيْسَهَاۚ وَهُمْ فِيْ مَا اشْتَهَتْ اَنْفُسُهُمْ خٰلِدُوْنَ ۚ ۝١٠٢

Lā yasma‘ūna ḥasīsahā, wa hum fīmasytahat anfusuhum khōlidūn

102. They will not hear its hissing, and they will forever abide in what their hearts desire.

لَا يَحْزُنُهُمُ الْفَزَعُ الْاَكْبَرُ وَتَتَلَقّٰىهُمُ الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُۗ هٰذَا يَوْمُكُمُ الَّذِيْ كُنْتُمْ تُوْعَدُوْنَ ۝١٠٣

Lā yaḥzunuhumul-faza‘ul-akbaru wa tatalaqqōhumul-malā-ikah, hāżā yaumukumul-lażī kuntum tū‘adūn

103. The Supreme Fear will not worry them, and the angels will receive them: “This is your Day which you were promised.”

يَوْمَ نَطْوِى السَّمَاۤءَ كَطَيِّ السِّجِلِّ لِلْكُتُبِۗ كَمَا بَدَأْنَآ اَوَّلَ خَلْقٍ نُّعِيْدُهٗۗ وَعْدًا عَلَيْنَاۗ اِنَّا كُنَّا فٰعِلِيْنَ ۝١٠٤

Yauma naṭwis-samā-a kaṭoyyis-sijilli lil-kutib, kamā bada'nā awwala kholqin nu‘īduh, wa‘dan ‘alainā, innā kunnā fā‘ilīn

104. On the Day when We fold the heaven, like the folding of a book. Just as We began the first creation, We will repeat it—a promise binding on Us. We will act.

وَلَقَدْ كَتَبْنَا فِى الزَّبُوْرِ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ الذِّكْرِ اَنَّ الْاَرْضَ يَرِثُهَا عِبَادِيَ الصّٰلِحُوْنَ ۝١٠٥

Wa laqod katabnā fiz-zabūri mim ba‘diż-żikri annal-arḍo yariṡuhā ‘ibādiyaṣ-ṣōliḥūn

105. We have written in the Psalms, after the Reminder, that the earth will be inherited by My righteous servants.

اِنَّ فِيْ هٰذَا لَبَلٰغًا لِّقَوْمٍ عٰبِدِيْنَ ۗ ۝١٠٦

Inna fī hāżā labalāghol liqoumin ‘ābidīn

106. Indeed, in this is a message for people who worship.

وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنٰكَ اِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِيْنَ ۝١٠٧

Wa mā arsalnāka illā roḥmatal lil-‘ālamīn

107. We did not send you except as mercy to mankind.

قُلْ اِنَّمَا يُوْحٰىٓ اِلَيَّ اَنَّمَآ اِلٰهُكُمْ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّسْلِمُوْنَ ۝١٠٨

Qul innamā yūḥā ilayya annamā ilāhukum ilāhuw wāḥid, fahal antum muslimūn

108. Say, “It is revealed to me that your god is One God. Are you going to submit?”

فَاِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ اٰذَنْتُكُمْ عَلٰى سَوَاۤءٍۗ وَاِنْ اَدْرِيْٓ اَقَرِيْبٌ اَمْ بَعِيْدٌ مَّا تُوْعَدُوْنَ ۝١٠٩

Fa in tawallau fa qul āżantukum ‘alā sawā', wa in adrī aqorībun am ba‘īdum mā tū‘adūn

109. But if they turn away, say, “I have informed you sufficiently. Although I do not know whether what you are promised is near or far.”

اِنَّهٗ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْتُمُوْنَ ۝١١٠

Innahū ya‘lamul-jahro minal-qouli wa ya‘lamu mā taktumūn

110. He knows what is said openly, and He knows what you conceal.

وَاِنْ اَدْرِيْ لَعَلَّهٗ فِتْنَةٌ لَّكُمْ وَمَتَاعٌ اِلٰى حِيْنٍ ۝١١١

Wa in adrī la‘allahū fitnatul lakum wa matā‘un ilā ḥīn

111. “And I do not know whether it is perhaps a trial for you, and an enjoyment for a while.”

قٰلَ رَبِّ احْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّۗ وَرَبُّنَا الرَّحْمٰنُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلٰى مَا تَصِفُوْنَ ࣖ ۝١١٢

Qōla robbiḥkum bil-ḥaqq, wa robbunar-roḥmānul-musta‘ānu ‘alā mā taṣifūn

112. He said, “My Lord, judge with justice.” And, “Our Lord is the Gracious, whose help is sought against what you allege.”
