اِلَّا عَلٰٓى اَزْوَاجِهِمْ اَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ اَيْمَانُهُمْ فَاِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُوْمِيْنَۚ ۝٦

Illā ‘alā azwājihim au mā malakat aimānuhum fa innahum ghoiru malūmīn

6. Except from their spouses, or their dependents—for they are free from blame.

فَمَنِ ابْتَغٰى وَرَاۤءَ ذٰلِكَ فَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ الْعَادُوْنَ ۚ ۝٧

Famanibtaghō warō-a żālika fa ulā-ika humul-‘ādūn

Wal-lażīna hum li'amānātihim wa ‘ahdihim rō‘ūn

وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنْ سُلٰلَةٍ مِّنْ طِيْنٍ ۚ ۝١٢

Wa laqod kholaqnal-insāna min sulālatim min ṭīn

12. We created man from an extract of clay.

ثُمَّ جَعَلْنٰهُ نُطْفَةً فِيْ قَرَارٍ مَّكِيْنٍ ۖ ۝١٣

Ṡumma ja‘alnāhu nuṭfatan fī qorōrim makīn

13. Then We made him a seed, in a secure repository.

ثُمَّ خَلَقْنَا النُّطْفَةَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْعَلَقَةَ مُضْغَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْمُضْغَةَ عِظٰمًا فَكَسَوْنَا الْعِظٰمَ لَحْمًا ثُمَّ اَنْشَأْنٰهُ خَلْقًا اٰخَرَۗ فَتَبَارَكَ اللّٰهُ اَحْسَنُ الْخٰلِقِيْنَۗ ۝١٤

Ṡumma kholaqnan-nuṭfata ‘alaqotan fa kholaqnal-‘alaqota muḍghotan fa kholaqnal-muḍghota ‘iẓōman fa kasaunal-‘iẓōma laḥmā, ṡumma ansya'nāhu kholqon ākhor, fa tabārokallāhu aḥsanul-khōliqīn

14. Then We developed the seed into a clot. Then We developed the clot into a lump. Then We developed the lump into bones. Then We clothed the bones with flesh. Then We produced it into another creature. Most Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators.

ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ لَمَيِّتُوْنَ ۗ ۝١٥

Ṡumma innakum ba‘da żālika lamayyitūn

15. Then, after that, you will die.

ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ تُبْعَثُوْنَ ۝١٦

Ṡumma innakum yaumal-qiyāmati tub‘aṡūn

16. Then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will be resurrected.

وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعَ طَرَاۤىِٕقَۖ وَمَا كُنَّا عَنِ الْخَلْقِ غٰفِلِيْنَ ۝١٧

Wa laqod kholaqnā fauqokum sab‘a ṭorō-iq, wa mā kunnā ‘anil-kholqi ghōfilīn

17. We created above you seven pathways, and We are never heedless of the creation.

وَاَنْزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَاۤءِ مَاۤءًۢ بِقَدَرٍ فَاَسْكَنّٰهُ فِى الْاَرْضِۖ وَاِنَّا عَلٰى ذَهَابٍۢ بِهٖ لَقٰدِرُوْنَ ۚ ۝١٨

Wa anzalnā minas-samā-i mā-am biqodarin fa askannāhu fil-arḍ, wa innā ‘alā żahābim bihī laqōdirūn

18. And We sent down water from the sky in proper quantity, and settled it in the ground, and We are Able to take it away.

فَاَنْشَأْنَا لَكُمْ بِهٖ جَنّٰتٍ مِّنْ نَّخِيْلٍ وَّاَعْنَابٍۘ لَكُمْ فِيْهَا فَوَاكِهُ كَثِيْرَةٌ وَّمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُوْنَ ۙ ۝١٩

Fa ansya'nā lakum bihī jannātim min nakhīliw wa a‘nāb, lakum fīhā fawākihu kaṡīrotuw wa minhā ta'kulūn

19. With it We produce for you gardens of palms and vines, yielding abundant fruit for you to eat.

وَشَجَرَةً تَخْرُجُ مِنْ طُوْرِ سَيْنَاۤءَ تَنْۢبُتُ بِالدُّهْنِ وَصِبْغٍ لِّلْاٰكِلِيْنَ ۝٢٠

Wa syajarotan takhruju min ṭūri sainā-a tambutu bid-duhni wa ṣibghil lil-ākilīn

20. And a tree springing out of Mount Sinai, producing oil, and seasoning for those who eat.

وَاِنَّ لَكُمْ فِى الْاَنْعَامِ لَعِبْرَةًۗ نُسْقِيْكُمْ مِّمَّا فِيْ بُطُوْنِهَا وَلَكُمْ فِيْهَا مَنَافِعُ كَثِيْرَةٌ وَّمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُوْنَ ۙ ۝٢١

Wa inna lakum fil-an‘āmi la‘ibroh, nusqīkum mimmā fī buṭūnihā wa lakum fīhā manāfi‘u kaṡīrotuw wa minhā ta'kulūn

21. And there is a lesson for you in livestock: We give you to drink from what is in their bellies, and you have many benefits in them, and from them you eat.

وَعَلَيْهَا وَعَلَى الْفُلْكِ تُحْمَلُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٢٢

Wa ‘alaihā wa ‘alal-fulki tuḥmalūn

22. And on them, and on the ships, you are transported.

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا اِلٰى قَوْمِهٖ فَقَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَيْرُهٗۗ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ ۝٢٣

Wa laqod arsalnā nūḥan ilā qoumihī fa qōla yā qoumi‘budullāha mā lakum min ilāhin ghoiruh, afalā tattaqūn

23. We sent Noah to his people. He said, “O my people, worship Allah, you have no deity other than Him. Will you not take heed?”

فَقَالَ الْمَلَؤُا الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ قَوْمِهٖ مَا هٰذَآ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْۙ يُرِيْدُ اَنْ يَّتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْۗ وَلَوْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ لَاَنْزَلَ مَلٰۤىِٕكَةً ۖمَّا سَمِعْنَا بِهٰذَا فِيْٓ اٰبَاۤىِٕنَا الْاَوَّلِيْنَ ۚ ۝٢٤

Fa qōlal-mala'ul-lażīna kafarū min qoumihī mā hāżā illā basyarum miṡlukum, yurīdu ay yatafaḍḍola ‘alaikum, wa lau syā-allāhu la'anzala malā-ikah, mā sami‘nā bihāżā fī ābā-inal-awwalīn

24. But the notables of his people, who disbelieved, said, “This is nothing but a human like you, who wants to gain superiority over you. Had Allah willed, He would have sent down angels. We never heard of this from our forefathers of old.

اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا رَجُلٌۢ بِهٖ جِنَّةٌ فَتَرَبَّصُوْا بِهٖ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍ ۝٢٥

In huwa illā rojulum bihī jinnatun fa tarobbaṣū bihī ḥattā ḥīn

Qōla robbinṣurnī bimā każżabūn

26. He said, “My Lord, help me, for they have rejected me.”

فَاَوْحَيْنَآ اِلَيْهِ اَنِ اصْنَعِ الْفُلْكَ بِاَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا فَاِذَا جَاۤءَ اَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ التَّنُّوْرُۙ فَاسْلُكْ فِيْهَا مِنْ كُلٍّ زَوْجَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ وَاَهْلَكَ اِلَّا مَنْ سَبَقَ عَلَيْهِ الْقَوْلُ مِنْهُمْۚ وَلَا تُخَاطِبْنِيْ فِى الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْاۚ اِنَّهُمْ مُّغْرَقُوْنَ ۝٢٧

Fa auḥainā ilaihi aniṣna‘il-fulka bi'a‘yuninā wa waḥyinā fa iżā jā-a amrunā wafārot-tannūr, fasluk fīhā min kullin zaujainiṡnaini wa ahlaka illā man sabaqo ‘alaihil-qoulu minhum, wa lā tukhōṭibnī fil-lażīna ẓolamū, innahum mughroqūn

27. So We inspired him: “Build the Ark under Our observation and by Our inspiration. And when Our decree comes to pass, and the oven boils over, load into it two pairs of every kind, together with your family, except those of them against whom the word has already been pronounced. And do not speak to Me concerning those who did wrong; for they are to be drowned.”

فَاِذَا اسْتَوَيْتَ اَنْتَ وَمَنْ مَّعَكَ عَلَى الْفُلْكِ فَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِيْ نَجّٰىنَا مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٢٨

Fa iżastawaita anta wa mam ma‘aka ‘alal-fulki fa qulil-ḥamdu lillāhil-lażī najjānā minal-qoumiẓ-ẓōlimīn

28. Then, when you and those with you are settled in the Ark, say, “Praise be to Allah, who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.”

وَقُلْ رَّبِّ اَنْزِلْنِيْ مُنْزَلًا مُّبٰرَكًا وَّاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْمُنْزِلِيْنَ ۝٢٩

Wa qur robbi anzilnī munzalam mubārokaw wa anta khoirul-munzilīn

29. And say, “My Lord, land me with a blessed landing, as You are the Best of transporters.”

اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ وَّاِنْ كُنَّا لَمُبْتَلِيْنَ ۝٣٠

Inna fī żālika la'āyātiw wa in kunnā lamubtalīn

30. Surely in that are signs. We are always testing.

ثُمَّ اَنْشَأْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْنًا اٰخَرِيْنَ ۚ ۝٣١

Ṡumma ansya'nā mim ba‘dihim qornan ākhorīn

31. Then, after them, We established another generation.

فَاَرْسَلْنَا فِيْهِمْ رَسُوْلًا مِّنْهُمْ اَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَيْرُهٗۗ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٣٢

Fa arsalnā fīhim rosūlam minhum ani‘budullāha mā lakum min ilāhin ghoiruh, afalā tattaqūn

32. And We sent among them a messenger from themselves: “Serve Allah. You have no god other than Him. Will you not be cautious?”

وَقَالَ الْمَلَاُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَكَذَّبُوْا بِلِقَاۤءِ الْاٰخِرَةِ وَاَتْرَفْنٰهُمْ فِى الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَاۙ مَا هٰذَآ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْۙ يَأْكُلُ مِمَّا تَأْكُلُوْنَ مِنْهُ وَيَشْرَبُ مِمَّا تَشْرَبُوْنَ ۝٣٣

Wa qōlal-mala'u min qoumihil-lażīna kafarū wa każżabū biliqō-il-ākhiroti wa atrofnāhum fil-ḥayātid-dun-yā, mā hāżā illā basyarum miṡlukum, ya'kulu mimmā ta'kulūna minhu wa yasyrobu mimmā tasyrobūn

33. But the dignitaries of his people, those who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter, and We had indulged them in the present life, said, “This is nothing but a human like you; he eats what you eat, and he drinks what you drink.

وَلَىِٕنْ اَطَعْتُمْ بَشَرًا مِّثْلَكُمْ اِنَّكُمْ اِذًا لَّخٰسِرُوْنَ ۙ ۝٣٤

Wa la'in aṭo‘tum basyarom miṡlakum innakum iżal lakhōsirūn

34. If you obey a human being like yourselves, then you will be losers.

اَيَعِدُكُمْ اَنَّكُمْ اِذَا مِتُّمْ وَكُنْتُمْ تُرَابًا وَّعِظَامًا اَنَّكُمْ مُّخْرَجُوْنَ ۖ ۝٣٥

Aya‘idukum annakum iżā mittum wa kuntum turōbaw wa ‘iẓōman annakum mukhrojūn

35. Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones, you will be brought out?

هَيْهَاتَ هَيْهَاتَ لِمَا تُوْعَدُوْنَ ۖ ۝٣٦

Haihāta haihāta limā tū‘adūn

36. Farfetched, farfetched is what you are promised.

اِنْ هِيَ اِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا الدُّنْيَا نَمُوْتُ وَنَحْيَا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَبْعُوْثِيْنَ ۖ ۝٣٧

In hiya illā ḥayātunad-dun-yā namūtu wa naḥyā wa mā naḥnu bimab‘ūṡīn

37. There is nothing but our life in this world. We die, and we live, and we are not resurrected.

اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا رَجُلُ ِۨافْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا وَّمَا نَحْنُ لَهٗ بِمُؤْمِنِيْنَ ۝٣٨

In huwa illā rojuluniftarō ‘alallāhi każibaw wa mā naḥnu lahū bimu'minīn

38. He is nothing but a man, making up lies about Allah. We have no faith in him.”

Qōla robbinṣurnī bimā każżabūn

قَالَ عَمَّا قَلِيْلٍ لَّيُصْبِحُنَّ نٰدِمِيْنَ ۚ ۝٤٠

Qōla ‘ammā qolīlil layuṣbiḥunna nādimīn

40. He said, “Soon they will be filled with regret.”

فَاَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ بِالْحَقِّ فَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ غُثَاۤءًۚ فَبُعْدًا لِّلْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٤١

Fa akhożat-humuṣ-ṣoiḥatu bil-ḥaqqi fa ja'alahum ghuṡā-ā, fa bu‘dal lil-qoumiẓ-ẓōlimīn

41. Then the Blast struck them, justifiably, and We turned them into scum. So away with the wicked people.

ثُمَّ اَنْشَأْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قُرُوْنًا اٰخَرِيْنَ ۗ ۝٤٢

Ṡumma ansya'nā mim ba‘dihim qurūnan ākhorīn

42. Then, after them, We raised other generations.

مَا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ اُمَّةٍ اَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَأْخِرُوْنَ ۗ ۝٤٣

Mā tasbiqu min ummatin ajalahā wa mā yasta'khirūn

43. No nation can advance its time, nor can they postpone it.

ثُمَّ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا تَتْرَاۗ كُلَّمَا جَاۤءَ اُمَّةً رَّسُوْلُهَا كَذَّبُوْهُ فَاَتْبَعْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ بَعْضًا وَّجَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَحَادِيْثَۚ فَبُعْدًا لِّقَوْمٍ لَّا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ ۝٤٤

Ṡumma arsalnā rusulanā tatrō, kullamā jā-a ummatar rosūluhā każżabūhu fa atba‘nā ba‘ḍohum ba‘ḍow wa ja‘alnāhum aḥādīṡ, fa bu‘dal liqoumil lā yu'minūn

44. Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time a messenger came to his community, they called him a liar. So We made them follow one another, and made them history. So away with a people who do not believe.

ثُمَّ اَرْسَلْنَا مُوْسٰى وَاَخَاهُ هٰرُوْنَ ەۙ بِاٰيٰتِنَا وَسُلْطٰنٍ مُّبِيْنٍۙ ۝٤٥

Ṡumma arsalnā mūsā wa akhōhu hārūn, bi'āyātinā wa sulṭōnim mubīn

45. Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron, with Our signs and a clear authority.

اِلٰى فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَا۟ىِٕهٖ فَاسْتَكْبَرُوْا وَكَانُوْا قَوْمًا عَالِيْنَ ۚ ۝٤٦

Ilā fir‘auna wa mala'ihī fastakbarū wa kānū qouman ‘ālīn

46. To Pharaoh and his nobles, but they turned arrogant. They were oppressive people.

فَقَالُوْٓا اَنُؤْمِنُ لِبَشَرَيْنِ مِثْلِنَا وَقَوْمُهُمَا لَنَا عٰبِدُوْنَ ۚ ۝٤٧

Fa qōlū anu'minu libasyaroini miṡlinā wa qoumuhumā lanā ‘ābidūn

47. They said, “Are we to believe in two mortals like us, and their people are our slaves?”

فَكَذَّبُوْهُمَا فَكَانُوْا مِنَ الْمُهْلَكِيْنَ ۝٤٨

Fa każżabūhumā fa kānū minal-muhlakīn

48. So they called them liars, and thus were among those destroyed.

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوْسَى الْكِتٰبَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُوْنَ ۝٤٩

Wa laqod ātainā mūsal-kitāba la‘allahum yahtadūn

49. And We gave Moses the Scripture, that they may be guided.

وَجَعَلْنَا ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَاُمَّهٗٓ اٰيَةً وَّاٰوَيْنٰهُمَآ اِلٰى رَبْوَةٍ ذَاتِ قَرَارٍ وَّمَعِيْنٍ ࣖ ۝٥٠

Wa ja‘alnabna maryama wa ummahū āyataw wa āwaināhumā ilā robwatin żāti qorōriw wa ma‘īn

50. And We made Mary’s son and his mother a sign, and We sheltered them on high ground with security and flowing springs.

يٰٓاَيُّهَا الرُّسُلُ كُلُوْا مِنَ الطَّيِّبٰتِ وَاعْمَلُوْا صَالِحًاۗ اِنِّيْ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ عَلِيْمٌ ۗ ۝٥١

Yā ayyuhar-rusulu kulū minaṭ-ṭoyyibāti wa‘malū ṣōliḥā, innī bimā ta‘malūna ‘alīm

51. O messengers, eat of the good things, and act with integrity. I am aware of what you do.

وَاِنَّ هٰذِهٖٓ اُمَّتُكُمْ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةً وَّاَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمْ فَاتَّقُوْنِ ۝٥٢

Wa inna hāżihī ummatukum ummataw wāḥidataw wa ana robbukum fattaqūn

52. This nation of yours is one nation, and I am your Lord, so fear Me.

فَتَقَطَّعُوْٓا اَمْرَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ زُبُرًاۗ كُلُّ حِزْبٍۢ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ فَرِحُوْنَ ۝٥٣

Fa taqoṭṭo‘ū amrohum bainahum zuburō, kullu ḥizbim bimā ladaihim fariḥūn

53. But they tore themselves into sects; each party happy with what they have.

فَذَرْهُمْ فِيْ غَمْرَتِهِمْ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍ ۝٥٤

Fa żarhum fī ghomrotihim ḥattā ḥīn

54. So leave them in their bewilderment until a time.

اَيَحْسَبُوْنَ اَنَّمَا نُمِدُّهُمْ بِهٖ مِنْ مَّالٍ وَّبَنِيْنَ ۙ ۝٥٥

Ayaḥsabūna annamā numidduhum bihī mim māliw wabanīn

55. Do they assume that, in furnishing them with wealth and children.

نُسَارِعُ لَهُمْ فِى الْخَيْرٰتِۗ بَلْ لَّا يَشْعُرُوْنَ ۝٥٦

Nusāri‘u lahum fil-khoirōt, bal lā yasy‘urūn

56. We race to give them the good things? In fact, they have no idea.

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ هُمْ مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ رَبِّهِمْ مُّشْفِقُوْنَ ۙ ۝٥٧

Innal-lażīna hum min khosy-yati robbihim musyfiqūn

Wal-lażīna yu'tūna mā ātaw wa qulūbuhum wajilatun annahum ilā robbihim rōji‘ūn

60. And those who give what they give, while their hearts quake, knowing that to their Lord they will return.

اُولٰۤىِٕكَ يُسَارِعُوْنَ فِى الْخَيْرٰتِ وَهُمْ لَهَا سٰبِقُوْنَ ۝٦١

Ulā-ika yusāri‘ūna fil-khoirōti wa hum lahā sābiqūn

61. It is they who race towards goodness. It is they who will reach it first.

وَلَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا اِلَّا وُسْعَهَاۖ وَلَدَيْنَا كِتٰبٌ يَّنْطِقُ بِالْحَقِّ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُوْنَ ۝٦٢

Wa lā nukallifu nafsan illā wus‘ahā, wa ladainā kitābuy yanṭiqu bil-ḥaqqi wa hum lā yuẓlamūn

بَلْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ فِيْ غَمْرَةٍ مِّنْ هٰذَا وَلَهُمْ اَعْمَالٌ مِّنْ دُوْنِ ذٰلِكَ هُمْ لَهَا عٰمِلُوْنَ ۝٦٣

Bal qulūbuhum fī ghomrotim min hāżā wa lahum a‘mālum min dūni żālika hum lahā ‘āmilūn

63. But their hearts are puzzled because of this; and they have deeds that do not conform to this, which they continue to perpetrate.

حَتّٰىٓ اِذَآ اَخَذْنَا مُتْرَفِيْهِمْ بِالْعَذَابِ اِذَا هُمْ يَجْـَٔرُوْنَ ۗ ۝٦٤

Ḥattā iżā akhożnā mutrofīhim bil-‘ażābi iżā hum yaj'arūn

64. Until, when We seize the decadent among them with torment, they begin to groan.

Wa innal-lażīna lā yu'minūna bil-ākhiroti ‘aniṣ-ṣirōṭi lanākibūn

Wa lau roḥimnāhum wa kasyafnā mā bihim min ḍurril lalajjū fī ṭughyānihim ya‘mahūn

75. Even if We had mercy on them, and relieved their problems, they would still blindly persist in their defiance.

وَلَقَدْ اَخَذْنٰهُمْ بِالْعَذَابِ فَمَا اسْتَكَانُوْا لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُوْنَ ۝٧٦
