Juz 12

وَمَا مِنْ دَاۤبَّةٍ فِى الْاَرْضِ اِلَّا عَلَى اللّٰهِ رِزْقُهَا وَيَعْلَمُ مُسْتَقَرَّهَا وَمُسْتَوْدَعَهَا ۗ كُلٌّ فِيْ كِتٰبٍ مُّبِيْنٍ ۝٦

Wa mā min dābbatin fil-arḍi illā ‘alallāhi rizquhā wa ya‘lamu mustaqorrohā wa mustauda‘ahā, kullun fī kitābim mubīn

6. There is no moving creature on earth but its sustenance depends on Allah. And He knows where it lives and where it rests. Everything is in a Clear Book.

وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ فِيْ سِتَّةِ اَيَّامٍ وَّكَانَ عَرْشُهٗ عَلَى الْمَاۤءِ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ اَيُّكُمْ اَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا ۗوَلَىِٕنْ قُلْتَ اِنَّكُمْ مَّبْعُوْثُوْنَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ الْمَوْتِ لَيَقُوْلَنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اِنْ هٰذَٓا اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ ۝٧

Wa huwal-lażī kholaqos-samāwāti wal-arḍo fī sittati ayyāmiw wa kāna ‘arsyuhū ‘alal-mā-i liyabluwakum ayyukum aḥsanu ‘amalā, wa la'in qulta innakum mab‘ūṡūna mim ba‘dil-mauti layaqūlannal-lażīna kafarū in hāżā illā siḥrum mubīn

7. It is He who created the heavens and the earth in six days—and His Throne was upon the waters—in order to test you—which of you is best in conduct. And if you were to say, “You will be resurrected after death,” those who disbelieve would say, “This is nothing but plain witchcraft.”

وَلَىِٕنْ اَخَّرْنَا عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابَ اِلٰٓى اُمَّةٍ مَّعْدُوْدَةٍ لَّيَقُوْلُنَّ مَا يَحْبِسُهٗ ۗ اَلَا يَوْمَ يَأْتِيْهِمْ لَيْسَ مَصْرُوْفًا عَنْهُمْ وَحَاقَ بِهِمْ مَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ يَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٨

Wa la'in akhkhornā ‘anhumul-‘ażāba ilā ummatim ma‘dūdatil layaqūlunna mā yaḥbisuh, alā yauma ya'tīhim laisa maṣrūfan ‘anhum wa ḥāqo bihim mā kānū bihī yastahzi'ūn

8. And if We postponed their punishment until a stated time, they would say, “What holds it back?” On the Day when it reaches them, it will not be averted from them, and what they used to ridicule will besiege them.

وَلَىِٕنْ اَذَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنَّا رَحْمَةً ثُمَّ نَزَعْنٰهَا مِنْهُۚ اِنَّهٗ لَيَـُٔوْسٌ كَفُوْرٌ ۝٩

Wa la'in ażaqnal-insāna minnā roḥmatan ṡumma naza‘nāhā ‘anh, innahū laya'ūsun kafūr

9. If We give the human being a taste of mercy from Us, and then withdraw it from him, he becomes despairing and ungrateful.

وَلَىِٕنْ اَذَقْنٰهُ نَعْمَاۤءَ بَعْدَ ضَرَّاۤءَ مَسَّتْهُ لَيَقُوْلَنَّ ذَهَبَ السَّيِّاٰتُ عَنِّيْ ۗاِنَّهٗ لَفَرِحٌ فَخُوْرٌۙ ۝١٠

Wa la'in ażaqnāhu na‘mā-a ba‘da ḍorrō-a massat-hu layaqūlanna żahabas-sayyi'ātu ‘annī, innahū lafariḥun fakhūr

10. And if We give him a taste of prosperity, after some adversity has afflicted him, he will say, “Troubles have gone away from me.” He becomes excited and proud.

اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ صَبَرُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَّاَجْرٌ كَبِيْرٌ ۝١١

Illal-lażīna ṣobarū wa ‘amiluṣ-ṣōliḥāt, ulā-ika lahum maghfirotuw wa ajrun kabīr

11. Except those who are patient and do good deeds—these will have forgiveness and a great reward.

فَلَعَلَّكَ تَارِكٌۢ بَعْضَ مَا يُوْحٰىٓ اِلَيْكَ وَضَاۤىِٕقٌۢ بِهٖ صَدْرُكَ اَنْ يَّقُوْلُوْا لَوْلَآ اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ كَنْزٌ اَوْ جَاۤءَ مَعَهٗ مَلَكٌ ۗاِنَّمَآ اَنْتَ نَذِيْرٌ ۗ وَاللّٰهُ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَّكِيْلٌ ۗ ۝١٢

Fa la‘allaka tārikum ba‘ḍo mā yūḥā ilaika wa ḍō-ikum bihī ṣodruka ay yaqūlū lau lā unzila ‘alaihi kanzun au jā-a ma‘ahū malak, innamā anta nażīr, wallāhu ‘alā kulli syai'in wakīl

12. Perhaps you wish to disregard some of what is revealed to you, and you may be stressed because of it, since they say, “If only a treasure was sent down to him, or an angel came with him.” You are only a warner, and Allah is Responsible for all things.

اَمْ يَقُوْلُوْنَ افْتَرٰىهُ ۗقُلْ فَأْتُوْا بِعَشْرِ سُوَرٍ مِّثْلِهٖ مُفْتَرَيٰتٍ وَّادْعُوْا مَنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ ۝١٣

Am yaqūlūnaftarōh, qul fa'tū bi‘asyri suwarim miṡlihī muftaroyātiw wad‘ū manistaṭo‘tum min dūnillāhi in kuntum ṣōdiqīn

13. Or do they say, “He invented it”? Say, “Then produce ten chapters like it, invented, and call upon whomever you can, besides Allah, if you are truthful.”

فَاِلَّمْ يَسْتَجِيْبُوْا لَكُمْ فَاعْلَمُوْٓا اَنَّمَآ اُنْزِلَ بِعِلْمِ اللّٰهِ وَاَنْ لَّآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ ۚفَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّسْلِمُوْنَ ۝١٤

Fa illam yastajībū lakum fa‘lamū annamā unzila bi‘ilmillāhi wa allā ilāha illā huw, fahal antum muslimūn

14. But if they fail to answer you, know that it was revealed with Allah’s knowledge, and that there is no god but He. Will you then submit?

مَنْ كَانَ يُرِيْدُ الْحَيٰوةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِيْنَتَهَا نُوَفِّ اِلَيْهِمْ اَعْمَالَهُمْ فِيْهَا وَهُمْ فِيْهَا لَا يُبْخَسُوْنَ ۝١٥

Man kāna yurīdul-ḥayātad-dun-yā wa zīnatahā nuwaffi ilaihim a‘mālahum fīhā wa hum fīhā lā yubkhosūn

15. Whoever desires the worldly life and its glitter—We will fully recompense them for their deeds therein, and therein they will not be defrauded.

اُولٰۤىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ فِى الْاٰخِرَةِ اِلَّا النَّارُ ۖوَحَبِطَ مَا صَنَعُوْا فِيْهَا وَبٰطِلٌ مَّا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ ۝١٦

Ulā-ikal-lażīna laisa lahum fil-ākhiroti illan-nār, wa ḥabiṭo mā ṣona‘ū fīhā wa bāṭilum mā kānū ya‘malūn

16. These—they will have nothing but the Fire in the Hereafter. Their deeds are in vain therein, and their works are null.

اَفَمَنْ كَانَ عَلٰى بَيِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ وَيَتْلُوْهُ شَاهِدٌ مِّنْهُ وَمِنْ قَبْلِهٖ كِتٰبُ مُوْسٰىٓ اِمَامًا وَّرَحْمَةًۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِهٖ ۗوَمَنْ يَّكْفُرْ بِهٖ مِنَ الْاَحْزَابِ فَالنَّارُ مَوْعِدُهٗ فَلَا تَكُ فِيْ مِرْيَةٍ مِّنْهُ اِنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ ۝١٧

Afaman kāna ‘alā bayyinatim mir robbihī wa yatlūhu syāhidum minhu wa min qoblihī kitābu mūsā imāmaw wa roḥmah, ulā-ika yu'minūna bih, wa may yakfur bihī minal-aḥzābi fan-nāru mau‘iduhū falā taku fī miryatim minhu innahul-ḥaqqu mir robbika wa lākinna akṡaron-nāsi lā yu'minūn

17. Is he who possesses a clear proof from his Lord, recited by a witness from Him, and before it the Book of Moses, a guide and a mercy? These believe in it. But whoever defies it from among the various factions, the Fire is his promise. So have no doubt about it. It is the truth from your Lord, but most people do not believe.

وَمَنْ اَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ افْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًاۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ يُعْرَضُوْنَ عَلٰى رَبِّهِمْ وَيَقُوْلُ الْاَشْهَادُ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ الَّذِيْنَ كَذَبُوْا عَلٰى رَبِّهِمْۚ اَلَا لَعْنَةُ اللّٰهِ عَلَى الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۙ ۝١٨

Wa man aẓlamu mimmaniftarō ‘alallāhi każibā, ulā-ika yu‘roḍūna ‘alā robbihim wa yaqūlul-asyhādu hā-ulā-il-lażīna każabū ‘alā robbihim, alā la‘natullāhi ‘alaẓ-ẓōlimīn

18. Who does greater wrong than he who fabricates lies about Allah? These will be presented before their Lord, and the witnesses will say, “These are they who lied about their Lord.” Indeed, the curse of Allah is upon the wrongdoers.

الَّذِيْنَ يَصُدُّوْنَ عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ وَيَبْغُوْنَهَا عِوَجًاۗ وَهُمْ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ هُمْ كفِٰرُوْنَ ۝١٩

Al-lażīna yaṣuddūna ‘an sabīlillāhi wa yabghūnahā ‘iwajā, wa hum bil-ākhiroti hum kāfirūn

19. Those who hinder others from the path of Allah, and seek to make it crooked; and regarding the Hereafter, they are in denial.

اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَمْ يَكُوْنُوْا مُعْجِزِيْنَ فِى الْاَرْضِ وَمَا كَانَ لَهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مِنْ اَوْلِيَاۤءَ ۘ يُضٰعَفُ لَهُمُ الْعَذَابُ ۗمَا كَانُوْا يَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ السَّمْعَ وَمَا كَانُوْا يُبْصِرُوْنَ ۝٢٠

Ulā-ika lam yakūnū mu‘jizīna fil-arḍi wa mā kāna lahum min dūnillāhi min auliyā', yuḍō‘afu lahumul-‘ażāb, mā kānū yastaṭī‘ūnas-sam‘a wa mā kānū yubṣirūn

20. These will not escape on earth, and they have no protectors besides Allah. The punishment will be doubled for them. They have failed to hear, and they have failed to see.

اُولٰۤىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ خَسِرُوْٓا اَنْفُسَهُمْ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا يَفْتَرُوْنَ ۝٢١

Ulā-ikal-lażīna khosirū anfusahum wa ḍolla ‘anhum mā kānū yaftarūn

21. Those are the ones who lost their souls, and what they had invented has strayed away from them.

لَاجَرَمَ اَنَّهُمْ فِى الْاٰخِرَةِ هُمُ الْاَخْسَرُوْنَ ۝٢٢

Lā jaroma annahum fil-ākhiroti humul-akhsarūn

22. Without a doubt, in the Hereafter, they will be the biggest losers.

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَاَخْبَتُوْٓا اِلٰى رَبِّهِمْۙ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ اَصْحٰبُ الْجَنَّةِۚ هُمْ فِيْهَا خٰلِدُوْنَ ۝٢٣

Innal-lażīna āmanū wa ‘amiluṣ-ṣōliḥāti wa akhbatū ilā robbihim, ulā-ika aṣḥābul-jannati hum fīhā khōlidūn

23. As for those who believe and do good deeds, and humble themselves before their Lord—these are the inhabitants of Paradise, where they will abide forever.

مَثَلُ الْفَرِيْقَيْنِ كَالْاَعْمٰى وَالْاَصَمِّ وَالْبَصِيْرِ وَالسَّمِيْعِۗ هَلْ يَسْتَوِيٰنِ مَثَلًا ۗ اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٢٤

Maṡalul-farīqoini kal-a‘mā wal-aṣommi wal-baṣīri was-samī‘, hal yastawiyāni maṡalā, afalā tażakkarūn

24. The parable of the two groups is that of the blind and the deaf, and the seeing and the hearing. Are they equal in comparison? Will you not reflect?

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا اِلٰى قَوْمِهٖٓ اِنِّيْ لَكُمْ نَذِيْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ ۙ ۝٢٥

Wa laqod arsalnā nūḥan ilā qoumihī innī lakum nażīrum mubīn

25. We sent Noah to his people, “I am to you a clear warner.”

اَنْ لَّا تَعْبُدُوْٓا اِلَّا اللّٰهَ ۖاِنِّيْٓ اَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ اَلِيْمٍ ۝٢٦

Allā ta‘budū illallāh, innī akhōfu ‘alaikum ‘ażāba yaumin alīm

26. “That you shall worship none but Allah. I fear for you the agony of a painful Day.”

فَقَالَ الْمَلَاُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ قَوْمِهٖ مَا نَرٰىكَ اِلَّا بَشَرًا مِّثْلَنَا وَمَا نَرٰىكَ اتَّبَعَكَ اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ هُمْ اَرَاذِلُنَا بَادِيَ الرَّأْيِۚ وَمَا نَرٰى لَكُمْ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ فَضْلٍۢ بَلْ نَظُنُّكُمْ كٰذِبِيْنَ ۝٢٧

Fa qōlal-mala'ul-lażīna kafarū min qoumihī mā narōka illā basyarom miṡlanā wa mā narōkattaba‘aka illal-lażīna hum arōżilunā bādiyar-ro'y, wa mā narō lakum ‘alainā min faḍlim bal naẓunnukum kāżibīn

27. The notables who disbelieved among his people said, “We see in you nothing but a man like us, and we see that only the worst among us have followed you, those of immature judgment. And we see that you have no advantage over us. In fact, we think you are liars.”

قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اَرَءَيْتُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُ عَلٰى بَيِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّيْ وَاٰتٰىنِيْ رَحْمَةً مِّنْ عِنْدِهٖ فَعُمِّيَتْ عَلَيْكُمْۗ اَنُلْزِمُكُمُوْهَا وَاَنْتُمْ لَهَا كٰرِهُوْنَ ۝٢٨

Qōla yā qoumi aro'aitum in kuntu ‘alā bayyinatim mir robbī wa ātānī roḥmatam min ‘indihī fa ‘ummiyat ‘alaikum, anulzimukumūhā wa antum lahā kārihūn

28. He said, “O my people, have you considered? If I stand on clear evidence from my Lord, and He has given me a mercy from Himself, but you were blind to it, can we compel you to accept it, even though you dislike it?”

وَيٰقَوْمِ لَآ اَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مَالًاۗ اِنْ اَجْرِيَ اِلَّا عَلَى اللّٰهِ وَمَآ اَنَا۠ بِطَارِدِ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْاۗ اِنَّهُمْ مُّلٰقُوْا رَبِّهِمْ وَلٰكِنِّيْٓ اَرٰىكُمْ قَوْمًا تَجْهَلُوْنَ ۝٢٩

Wa yā qoumi lā as'alukum ‘alaihi mālā, in ajriya illā ‘alallāhi wa mā ana biṭōridil-lażīna āmanū, innahum mulāqū robbihim wa lākinnī arōkum qouman tajhalūn

29. “O my people! I ask of you no money for it. My reward lies only with Allah. And I am not about to dismiss those who believed; they will surely meet their Lord. And I see that you are ignorant people.”

وَيٰقَوْمِ مَنْ يَّنْصُرُنِيْ مِنَ اللّٰهِ اِنْ طَرَدْتُّهُمْ ۗ اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُوْنَ ۝٣٠

Wa yā qoumi may yanṣurunī minallāhi in ṭorottuhum, afalā tażakkarūn

30. “O my people! Who will support me against Allah, if I dismiss them? Will you not give a thought?”

وَلَآ اَقُوْلُ لَكُمْ عِنْدِيْ خَزَاۤىِٕنُ اللّٰهِ وَلَآ اَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ وَلَآ اَقُوْلُ اِنِّيْ مَلَكٌ وَّلَآ اَقُوْلُ لِلَّذِيْنَ تَزْدَرِيْٓ اَعْيُنُكُمْ لَنْ يُّؤْتِيَهُمُ اللّٰهُ خَيْرًا ۗ اَللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا فِيْٓ اَنْفُسِهِمْ ۚاِنِّيْٓ اِذًا لَّمِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٣١

Wa lā aqūlu lakum ‘indī khozā-inullāhi wa lā a‘lamul-ghoiba wa lā aqūlu innī malakuw wa lā aqūlu lil-lażīna tazdarī a‘yunukum lay yu'tiyahumullāhu khoirō, allāhu a‘lamu bimā fī anfusihim, innī iżal laminaẓ-ẓōlimīn

31. “I do not say to you that I possess the treasures of Allah, nor do I know the future, nor do I say that I am an angel. Nor do I say of those who are despicable in your eyes that Allah will never give them any good. Allah is Aware of what lies in their souls. If I did, I would be one of the wrongdoers.”

قَالُوْا يٰنُوْحُ قَدْ جَادَلْتَنَا فَاَ كْثَرْتَ جِدَالَنَا فَأْتِنَا بِمَا تَعِدُنَآ اِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقِيْنَ ۝٣٢

Qōlū yā nūḥu qod jādaltanā fa akṡarta jidālanā fa'tinā bimā ta‘idunā in kunta minaṣ-ṣōdiqīn

32. They said, “O Noah, you have argued with us, and argued a great deal. Now bring upon us what you threaten us with, if you are truthful.”

قَالَ اِنَّمَا يَأْتِيْكُمْ بِهِ اللّٰهُ اِنْ شَاۤءَ وَمَآ اَنْتُمْ بِمُعْجِزِيْنَ ۝٣٣

Qōla innamā ya'tīkum bihillāhu in syā-a wa mā antum bimu‘jizīn

33. He said, “It is Allah who will bring it upon you, if He wills, and you will not be able to escape.”

وَلَا يَنْفَعُكُمْ نُصْحِيْٓ اِنْ اَرَدْتُّ اَنْ اَنْصَحَ لَكُمْ اِنْ كَانَ اللّٰهُ يُرِيْدُ اَنْ يُّغْوِيَكُمْ ۗهُوَ رَبُّكُمْ ۗوَاِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَۗ ۝٣٤

Wa lā yanfa‘ukum nuṣḥī in arottu an anṣoḥa lakum in kānallāhu yurīdu ay yughwiyakum, huwa robbukum, wa ilaihi turja‘ūn

34. “My advice will not benefit you, much as I may want to advise you, if Allah desires to confound you. He is your Lord, and to Him you will be returned.”

اَمْ يَقُوْلُوْنَ افْتَرٰىهُۗ قُلْ اِنِ افْتَرَيْتُهٗ فَعَلَيَّ اِجْرَامِيْ وَاَنَا۠ بَرِيْۤءٌ مِّمَّا تُجْرِمُوْنَ ࣖ ۝٣٥

Am yaqūlūnaftarōh, qul iniftaroituhū fa ‘alayya ijrōmī wa ana barī-um mimmā tujrimūn

35. Or do they say, “He made it up”? Say, “If I made it up, upon me falls my crime, and I am innocent of the crimes you commit.”

وَاُوْحِيَ اِلٰى نُوْحٍ اَنَّهٗ لَنْ يُّؤْمِنَ مِنْ قَوْمِكَ اِلَّا مَنْ قَدْ اٰمَنَ فَلَا تَبْتَىِٕسْ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَفْعَلُوْنَۖ ۝٣٦

Wa ūḥiya ilā nūḥin annahū lay yu'mina min qoumika illā man qod āmana falā tabta'is bimā kānū yaf‘alūn

36. And it was revealed to Noah: “None of your people will believe, except those who have already believed, so do not grieve over what they do.”

وَاصْنَعِ الْفُلْكَ بِاَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا وَلَا تُخَاطِبْنِيْ فِى الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا ۚاِنَّهُمْ مُّغْرَقُوْنَ ۝٣٧

Waṣna‘il-fulka bi'a‘yuninā wa waḥyinā wa lā tukhōṭibnī fil-lażīna ẓolamū, innahum mughroqūn

37. “And build the Ark, under Our eyes, and with Our inspiration, and do not address Me regarding those who did wrong; they are to be drowned.”

وَيَصْنَعُ الْفُلْكَۗ وَكُلَّمَا مَرَّ عَلَيْهِ مَلَاٌ مِّنْ قَوْمِهٖ سَخِرُوْا مِنْهُ ۗقَالَ اِنْ تَسْخَرُوْا مِنَّا فَاِنَّا نَسْخَرُ مِنْكُمْ كَمَا تَسْخَرُوْنَۗ ۝٣٨

Wa yaṣna‘ul-fulk, wa kullamā marro ‘alaihi mala'um min qoumihī sakhirū minh, qōla in taskhorū minnā fa innā naskhoru minkum kamā taskhorūn

38. As he was building the Ark, whenever some of his people passed by him, they ridiculed him. He said, “If you ridicule us, we will ridicule you, just as you ridicule.”

فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُوْنَۙ مَنْ يَّأْتِيْهِ عَذَابٌ يُّخْزِيْهِ وَيَحِلُّ عَلَيْهِ عَذَابٌ مُّقِيْمٌ ۝٣٩

Fa saufa ta‘lamūn, may ya'tīhi ‘ażābuy yukhzīhi wa yaḥillu ‘alaihi ‘ażābum muqīm

39. “You will surely know upon whom will come a torment that will abase him, and upon whom will fall a lasting torment.”

حَتّٰىٓ اِذَا جَاۤءَ اَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ التَّنُّوْرُۙ قُلْنَا احْمِلْ فِيْهَا مِنْ كُلٍّ زَوْجَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ وَاَهْلَكَ اِلَّا مَنْ سَبَقَ عَلَيْهِ الْقَوْلُ وَمَنْ اٰمَنَ ۗوَمَآ اٰمَنَ مَعَهٗٓ اِلَّا قَلِيْلٌ ۝٤٠

Ḥattā iżā jā-a amrunā wafārot-tannūr, qulnaḥmil fīhā min kullin zaujainiṡnaini wa ahlaka illā man sabaqo ‘alaihil-qoulu wa man āman, wa mā āmana ma‘ahū illā qolīl

40. Until, when Our command came, and the volcano erupted, We said, “Board into it a pair of every kind, and your family—except those against whom the sentence has already been passed—and those who have believed.” But those who believed with him were only a few.

وَقَالَ ارْكَبُوْا فِيْهَا بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ مَجْرٰ۪ىهَا وَمُرْسٰىهَا ۗاِنَّ رَبِّيْ لَغَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ ۝٤١

Wa qōlarkabū fīhā bismillāhi majrêhā wa mursāhā, inna robbī laghofūrur roḥīm

41. He said, “Embark in it. In the name of Allah shall be its sailing and its anchorage. My Lord is indeed Forgiving and Merciful.”

وَهِيَ تَجْرِيْ بِهِمْ فِيْ مَوْجٍ كَالْجِبَالِۗ وَنَادٰى نُوْحُ ِۨابْنَهٗ وَكَانَ فِيْ مَعْزِلٍ يّٰبُنَيَّ ارْكَبْ مَّعَنَا وَلَا تَكُنْ مَّعَ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ ۝٤٢

Wa hiya tajrī bihim fī maujin kal-jibāl, wa nādā nūḥunibnahū wa kāna fī ma‘ziliy yā bunayyarkam ma‘anā wa lā takum ma‘al-kāfirīn

42. And so it sailed with them amidst waves like hills. And Noah called to his son, who had kept away, “O my son! Embark with us, and do not be with the disbelievers.”

قَالَ سَاٰوِيْٓ اِلٰى جَبَلٍ يَّعْصِمُنِيْ مِنَ الْمَاۤءِ ۗقَالَ لَا عَاصِمَ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ اَمْرِ اللّٰهِ اِلَّا مَنْ رَّحِمَ ۚوَحَالَ بَيْنَهُمَا الْمَوْجُ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُغْرَقِيْنَ ۝٤٣

43. He said, “I will take refuge on a mountain—it will protect me from the water.” He said, “There is no protection from Allah’s decree today, except for him on whom He has mercy.” And the waves surged between them, and he was among the drowned.

وَقِيْلَ يٰٓاَرْضُ ابْلَعِيْ مَاۤءَكِ وَيٰسَمَاۤءُ اَقْلِعِيْ وَغِيْضَ الْمَاۤءُ وَقُضِيَ الْاَمْرُ وَاسْتَوَتْ عَلَى الْجُوْدِيِّ وَقِيْلَ بُعْدًا لِّلْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٤٤

44. And it was said, “O earth, swallow your waters,” and “O heaven, clear up.” And the waters receded, and the event was concluded, and it settled on Judi, and it was proclaimed: “Away with the wicked people.”

وَنَادٰى نُوْحٌ رَّبَّهٗ فَقَالَ رَبِّ اِنَّ ابْنِيْ مِنْ اَهْلِيْۚ وَاِنَّ وَعْدَكَ الْحَقُّ وَاَنْتَ اَحْكَمُ الْحٰكِمِيْنَ ۝٤٥

Wa nādā nūḥur robbahū fa qōla robbi innabnī min ahlī, wa inna wa‘dakal-ḥaqqu wa anta aḥkamul-ḥākimīn

45. And Noah called to his Lord. He said, “O my Lord, my son is of my family, and Your promise is true, and You are the Wisest of the wise.”

قَالَ يٰنُوْحُ اِنَّهٗ لَيْسَ مِنْ اَهْلِكَ ۚاِنَّهٗ عَمَلٌ غَيْرُ صَالِحٍ فَلَا تَسْـَٔلْنِ مَا لَيْسَ لَكَ بِهٖ عِلْمٌ ۗاِنِّيْٓ اَعِظُكَ اَنْ تَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْجٰهِلِيْنَ ۝٤٦

46. He said, “O Noah, he is not of your family. It is an unrighteous deed. So do not ask Me about something you know nothing about. I admonish you, lest you be one of the ignorant.”

قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّيْٓ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ اَنْ اَسْـَٔلَكَ مَا لَيْسَ لِيْ بِهٖ عِلْمٌ ۗوَاِلَّا تَغْفِرْ لِيْ وَتَرْحَمْنِيْٓ اَكُنْ مِّنَ الْخٰسِرِيْنَ ۝٤٧

Qōla robbi innī a‘ūżu bika an as'alaka mā laisa lī bihī ‘ilm, wa illā taghfir lī wa tarḥamnī akum minal-khōsirīn

47. He said, “O my Lord, I seek refuge with You, from asking You about what I have no knowledge of. Unless You forgive me, and have mercy on me, I will be one of the losers.”

قِيْلَ يٰنُوْحُ اهْبِطْ بِسَلٰمٍ مِّنَّا وَبَرَكٰتٍ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلٰٓى اُمَمٍ مِّمَّنْ مَّعَكَ ۗوَاُمَمٌ سَنُمَتِّعُهُمْ ثُمَّ يَمَسُّهُمْ مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ اَلِيْمٌ ۝٤٨

Qīla yā nūḥuhbiṭ bisalāmim minnā wa barokātin ‘alaika wa ‘alā umamim mimmam ma‘ak, wa umamun sanumatti‘uhum ṡumma yamassuhum minnā ‘ażābun alīm

48. It was said, “O Noah, disembark with peace from Us; and with blessings upon you, and upon communities from those with you. And other communities We will grant prosperity, and then a painful torment from Us will befall them.”

تِلْكَ مِنْ اَنْۢبَاۤءِ الْغَيْبِ نُوْحِيْهَآ اِلَيْكَ ۚمَا كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُهَآ اَنْتَ وَلَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ هٰذَاۚ فَاصْبِرْۚ اِنَّ الْعَاقِبَةَ لِلْمُتَّقِيْنَ ࣖ ۝٤٩

49. These are some stories from the past that We reveal to you. Neither you, nor your people knew them before this. So be patient. The future belongs to the pious.

وَاِلٰى عَادٍ اَخَاهُمْ هُوْدًا ۗقَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَيْرُهٗ ۗاِنْ اَنْتُمْ اِلَّا مُفْتَرُوْنَ ۝٥٠

50. And to Aad, their brother Hud. He said, “O my people, worship Allah, you have no other god besides Him. You do nothing but invent lies.”

يٰقَوْمِ لَآ اَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ اَجْرًا ۗاِنْ اَجْرِيَ اِلَّا عَلَى الَّذِيْ فَطَرَنِيْ ۗ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ ۝٥١

Yā qoumi lā as'alukum ‘alaihi ajrō, in ajriya illā ‘alal-lażī faṭoronī, afalā ta‘qilūn

51. “O my people, I ask you no wage for it; my wage lies with Him who originated me. Do you not understand?”

وَيٰقَوْمِ اسْتَغْفِرُوْا رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوْبُوْٓا اِلَيْهِ يُرْسِلِ السَّمَاۤءَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِّدْرَارًا وَّيَزِدْكُمْ قُوَّةً اِلٰى قُوَّتِكُمْ وَلَا تَتَوَلَّوْا مُجْرِمِيْنَ ۝٥٢

Wa yā qoumistaghfirū robbakum ṡumma tūbū ilaihi yursilis-samā-a ‘alaikum midrōrow wa yazidkum quwwatan ilā quwwatikum wa lā tatawallau mujrimīn

52. “O my people, ask forgiveness from your Lord, and repent to Him. He will release the sky pouring down upon you, and will add strength to your strength. And do not turn away and be wicked.”

قَالُوْا يٰهُوْدُ مَاجِئْتَنَا بِبَيِّنَةٍ وَّمَا نَحْنُ بِتَارِكِيْٓ اٰلِهَتِنَا عَنْ قَوْلِكَ وَمَا نَحْنُ لَكَ بِمُؤْمِنِيْنَ ۝٥٣

Qōlū yā hūdu mā ji'tanā bibayyinatiw wa mā naḥnu bitārikī ālihatinā ‘an qoulika wa mā naḥnu laka bimu'minīn

53. They said, “O Hud, you did not bring us any evidence, and we are not about to abandon our gods at your word, and we are not believers in you.”

اِنْ نَّقُوْلُ اِلَّا اعْتَرٰىكَ بَعْضُ اٰلِهَتِنَا بِسُوْۤءٍ ۗقَالَ اِنِّيْٓ اُشْهِدُ اللّٰهَ وَاشْهَدُوْٓا اَنِّيْ بَرِيْۤءٌ مِّمَّا تُشْرِكُوْنَ ۝٥٤

In naqūlu illa‘tarōka ba‘ḍu ālihatinā bisū', qōla innī usyhidullāha wasyhadū annī barī-um mimmā tusyrikūn

54. “We only say that some of our gods have possessed you with evil.” He said, “I call Allah to witness, and you to witness, that I am innocent of what you associate.

مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ فَكِيْدُوْنِيْ جَمِيْعًا ثُمَّ لَا تُنْظِرُوْنِ ۝٥٥

Min dūnihī fa kīdūnī jamī‘an ṡumma lā tunẓirūn

55. Besides Him. So scheme against me, all of you, and do not hesitate.

اِنِّيْ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللّٰهِ رَبِّيْ وَرَبِّكُمْ ۗمَا مِنْ دَاۤبَّةٍ اِلَّا هُوَ اٰخِذٌۢ بِنَاصِيَتِهَا ۗاِنَّ رَبِّيْ عَلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ ۝٥٦

Innī tawakkaltu ‘alallāhi robbī wa robbikum, mā min dābbatin illā huwa ākhiżum bināṣiyatihā, inna robbī ‘alā ṣirōṭim mustaqīm

56. I have placed my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord. There is not a creature but He holds it by the forelock. My Lord is on a straight path.

فَاِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقَدْ اَبْلَغْتُكُمْ مَّآ اُرْسِلْتُ بِهٖٓ اِلَيْكُمْ ۗوَيَسْتَخْلِفُ رَبِّيْ قَوْمًا غَيْرَكُمْۗ وَلَا تَضُرُّوْنَهٗ شَيْـًٔا ۗاِنَّ رَبِّيْ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَفِيْظٌ ۝٥٧

57. If you turn away, I have conveyed to you what I was sent to you with; and my Lord will replace you with another people, and you will not cause Him any harm. My Lord is Guardian over all things.”

وَلَمَّا جَاۤءَ اَمْرُنَا نَجَّيْنَا هُوْدًا وَّالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَعَهٗ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِّنَّاۚ وَنَجَّيْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ عَذَابٍ غَلِيْظٍ ۝٥٨

Wa lammā jā-a amrunā najjainā hūdaw wal-lażīna āmanū ma‘ahū biroḥmatim minnā, wa najjaināhum min ‘ażābin gholīẓ

58. And when Our decree came, We saved Hud and those who believed with him, by a mercy from Us, and We delivered them from a harsh punishment.

وَتِلْكَ عَادٌ ۖجَحَدُوْا بِاٰيٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَعَصَوْا رُسُلَهٗ وَاتَّبَعُوْٓا اَمْرَ كُلِّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِيْدٍ ۝٥٩

Wa tilka ‘ādun jaḥadū bi'āyāti robbihim wa ‘aṣou rusulahū wattaba‘ū amro kulli jabbārin ‘anīd

59. That was Aad; they denied the signs of their Lord, and defied His messengers, and followed the lead of every stubborn tyrant.

وَاُتْبِعُوْا فِيْ هٰذِهِ الدُّنْيَا لَعْنَةً وَّيَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ ۗ اَلَآ اِنَّ عَادًا كَفَرُوْا رَبَّهُمْ ۗ اَلَا بُعْدًا لِّعَادٍ قَوْمِ هُوْدٍ ࣖ ۝٦٠

Wa utbi‘ū fī hażihid-dun-yā la‘nataw wa yaumal-qiyāmah, alā inna ‘ādan kafarū robbahum, alā bu‘dal li‘ādin qoumi hūd

60. And they were pursued by a curse in this world, and on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, Aad blasphemed against their Lord—so away with Aad, the people of Hud.

وَاِلٰى ثَمُوْدَ اَخَاهُمْ صٰلِحًا ۘ قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَيْرُهٗ ۗهُوَ اَنْشَاَكُمْ مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ وَاسْتَعْمَرَكُمْ فِيْهَا فَاسْتَغْفِرُوْهُ ثُمَّ تُوْبُوْٓا اِلَيْهِ ۗاِنَّ رَبِّيْ قَرِيْبٌ مُّجِيْبٌ ۝٦١

61. And to Thamood, their brother Saleh. He said, “O my people, worship Allah, you have no god other than Him. He initiated you from the earth, and settled you in it. So seek His forgiveness, and repent to Him. My Lord is Near and Responsive.”

قَالُوْا يٰصٰلِحُ قَدْ كُنْتَ فِيْنَا مَرْجُوًّا قَبْلَ هٰذَآ اَتَنْهٰىنَآ اَنْ نَّعْبُدَ مَا يَعْبُدُ اٰبَاۤؤُنَا وَاِنَّنَا لَفِيْ شَكٍّ مِّمَّا تَدْعُوْنَآ اِلَيْهِ مُرِيْبٍ ۝٦٢

62. They said, “O Saleh, we had hopes in you before this. Are you trying to prevent us from worshiping what our parents worship? We are in serious doubt regarding what you are calling us to.”

قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اَرَءَيْتُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُ عَلٰى بَيِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّيْۗ وَاٰتٰىنِيْ مِنْهُ رَحْمَةً فَمَنْ يَّنْصُرُنِيْ مِنَ اللّٰهِ اِنْ عَصَيْتُهٗ ۗفَمَا تَزِيْدُوْنَنِيْ غَيْرَ تَخْسِيْرٍ ۝٦٣

Qōla yā qoumi aro'aitum in kuntu ‘alā bayyinatim mir robbī, wa ātānī minhu roḥmatan famay yanṣurunī minallāhi in ‘aṣoituh, famā tazīdūnanī ghoiro takhsīr

63. He said, “O my people, have you considered? If I stand upon clear evidence from my Lord, and He has given me mercy from Him, who would protect me from Allah, if I disobeyed Him? You add nothing for me except loss.”

وَيٰقَوْمِ هٰذِهٖ نَاقَةُ اللّٰهِ لَكُمْ اٰيَةً فَذَرُوْهَا تَأْكُلْ فِيْٓ اَرْضِ اللّٰهِ وَلَا تَمَسُّوْهَا بِسُوْۤءٍ فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ عَذَابٌ قَرِيْبٌ ۝٦٤

Wa yā qoumi hāżihī nāqotullāhi lakum āyatan fa żarūhā ta'kul fī arḍillāhi wa lā tamassūhā bisū-in fa ya'khużakum ‘ażābun qorīb

64. “O my people, this is the she-camel of Allah, a sign for you. Let her graze on Allah’s land, and do not harm her, lest an imminent punishment overtakes you.”

فَعَقَرُوْهَا فَقَالَ تَمَتَّعُوْا فِيْ دَارِكُمْ ثَلٰثَةَ اَيَّامٍ ۗذٰلِكَ وَعْدٌ غَيْرُ مَكْذُوْبٍ ۝٦٥

Fa ‘aqorūhā fa qōla tamatta‘ū fī dārikum ṡalāṡata ayyām, żālika wa‘dun ghoiru makżūb

65. But they hamstrung her, and so he said, “Enjoy yourselves in your homes for three days. This is a prophecy that is infallible.”

فَلَمَّا جَاۤءَ اَمْرُنَا نَجَّيْنَا صٰلِحًا وَّالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَعَهٗ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِّنَّا وَمِنْ خِزْيِ يَوْمِىِٕذٍ ۗاِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ الْقَوِيُّ الْعَزِيْزُ ۝٦٦

Falammā jā-a amrunā najjainā ṣōliḥaw wal-lażīna āmanū ma‘ahū biroḥmatim minnā wa min khizyi yaumi'iż, inna robbaka huwal-qowiyyul-‘ażīz

66. Then, when Our command came, We saved Saleh and those who believed with him, by a mercy from Us, from the disgrace of that day. Your Lord is the Strong, the Mighty.

وَاَخَذَ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوا الصَّيْحَةُ فَاَصْبَحُوْا فِيْ دِيَارِهِمْ جٰثِمِيْنَۙ ۝٦٧

Wa akhożal-lażīna ẓolamuṣ-ṣoiḥatu fa aṣbaḥū fī dārihim jāṡimīn

67. And the Scream struck those who transgressed, and they became motionless bodies in their homes.

كَاَنْ لَّمْ يَغْنَوْا فِيْهَا ۗ اَلَآ اِنَّ ثَمُوْدَا۟ كَفَرُوْا رَبَّهُمْ ۗ اَلَا بُعْدًا لِّثَمُوْدَ ࣖ ۝٦٨

Ka allam yaghnau fīhā, alā inna ṡamūda kafarū robbahum, alā bu‘dal liṡamūd

68. As if they had never prospered therein. Indeed, Thamood rejected their Lord, so away with Thamood.

وَلَقَدْ جَاۤءَتْ رُسُلُنَآ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ بِالْبُشْرٰى قَالُوْا سَلٰمًا ۖقَالَ سَلٰمٌ فَمَا لَبِثَ اَنْ جَاۤءَ بِعِجْلٍ حَنِيْذٍ ۝٦٩

Wa laqod jā-at rusulunā ibrōhīma bil-busyrō qōlū salāmā, qōla salāmun famā labiṡa an jā-a bi‘ijlin ḥanīż

69. Our messengers came to Abraham with good news. They said, “Peace.” He said, “Peace.” Soon after, he came with a roasted calf.

فَلَمَّا رَآٰ اَيْدِيَهُمْ لَا تَصِلُ اِلَيْهِ نَكِرَهُمْ وَاَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيْفَةً ۗقَالُوْا لَا تَخَفْ اِنَّآ اُرْسِلْنَآ اِلٰى قَوْمِ لُوْطٍۗ ۝٧٠

70. But when he saw their hands not reaching towards it, he became suspicious of them, and conceived a fear of them. They said, “Do not fear, we were sent to the people of Lot.”

وَامْرَاَتُهٗ قَاۤىِٕمَةٌ فَضَحِكَتْ فَبَشَّرْنٰهَا بِاِسْحٰقَۙ وَمِنْ وَّرَاۤءِ اِسْحٰقَ يَعْقُوْبَ ۝٧١

71. His wife was standing by, so she laughed. And We gave her good news of Isaac; and after Isaac, Jacob.

قَالَتْ يٰوَيْلَتٰىٓ ءَاَلِدُ وَاَنَا۠ عَجُوْزٌ وَّهٰذَا بَعْلِيْ شَيْخًا ۗاِنَّ هٰذَا لَشَيْءٌ عَجِيْبٌ ۝٧٢

Qōlat yā wailatā a'alidu wa ana ‘ajūzuw wa hāżā ba‘lī syaikhō, inna hāżā lasyai'un ‘ajīb

72. She said, “Alas for me. Shall I give birth, when I am an old woman, and this, my husband, is an old man? This is truly a strange thing.”

قَالُوْٓا اَتَعْجَبِيْنَ مِنْ اَمْرِ اللّٰهِ رَحْمَتُ اللّٰهِ وَبَرَكٰتُهٗ عَلَيْكُمْ اَهْلَ الْبَيْتِۗ اِنَّهٗ حَمِيْدٌ مَّجِيْدٌ ۝٧٣

Qōlū ata‘jabīna min amrillāhi roḥmatullāhi wa barokātuh, ‘alaikum ahlal-bait, innahū ḥamīdum majīd

73. They said, “Do you marvel at the decree of Allah? The mercy and blessings of Allah are upon you, O people of the house. He is Praiseworthy and Glorious.”

فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ عَنْ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ الرَّوْعُ وَجَاۤءَتْهُ الْبُشْرٰى يُجَادِلُنَا فِيْ قَوْمِ لُوْطٍ ۝٧٤

Falammā żahaba ‘an ibrōhīmar rou‘u wa jā-at-hul busyrō yujādilunā fī qoumi lūṭ

74. When Abraham’s fear subsided, and the good news had reached him, he started pleading with Us concerning the people of Lot.

اِنَّ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ لَحَلِيْمٌ اَوَّاهٌ مُّنِيْبٌ ۝٧٥

Inna ibrōhīma laḥalīmun awwāhum munīb

75. Abraham was gentle, kind, penitent.

يٰٓاِبْرٰهِيْمُ اَعْرِضْ عَنْ هٰذَا ۚاِنَّهٗ قَدْ جَاۤءَ اَمْرُ رَبِّكَۚ وَاِنَّهُمْ اٰتِيْهِمْ عَذَابٌ غَيْرُ مَرْدُوْدٍ ۝٧٦

Yā ibrōhīmu a‘riḍ ‘an hāżā, innahū qod jā-a amru robbik, wa innahum ātīhim ‘ażābun ghoiru mardūd

76. “O Abraham, refrain from this. The command of your Lord has come; they have incurred an irreversible punishment.”

وَلَمَّا جَاۤءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوْطًا سِيْۤءَ بِهِمْ وَضَاقَ بِهِمْ ذَرْعًا وَّقَالَ هٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَصِيْبٌ ۝٧٧

Wa lammā jā-at rusulunā lūṭon sī-a bihim wa ḍōqo bihim żar‘aw wa qōla hāżā yaumun ‘aṣīb

77. And when Our envoys came to Lot, he was anxious for them, and concerned for them. He said, “This is a dreadful day.”

وَجَاۤءَهٗ قَوْمُهٗ يُهْرَعُوْنَ اِلَيْهِۗ وَمِنْ قَبْلُ كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ السَّيِّاٰتِۗ قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ بَنَاتِيْ هُنَّ اَطْهَرُ لَكُمْ فَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَلَا تُخْزُوْنِ فِيْ ضَيْفِيْۗ اَلَيْسَ مِنْكُمْ رَجُلٌ رَّشِيْدٌ ۝٧٨

78. And his people came rushing towards him—they were in the habit of committing sins. He said, “O my people, these are my daughters; they are purer for you. So fear Allah, and do not embarrass me before my guests. Is there not one reasonable man among you?”

قَالُوْا لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا لَنَا فِيْ بَنٰتِكَ مِنْ حَقٍّۚ وَاِنَّكَ لَتَعْلَمُ مَا نُرِيْدُ ۝٧٩

Qōla lau anna lī bikum quwwatan au āwī ilā ruknin syadīd

80. He said, “If only I had the strength to stop you, or could rely on some strong support.”

قَالُوْا يٰلُوْطُ اِنَّا رُسُلُ رَبِّكَ لَنْ يَّصِلُوْٓا اِلَيْكَ فَاَسْرِ بِاَهْلِكَ بِقِطْعٍ مِّنَ الَّيْلِ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتْ مِنْكُمْ اَحَدٌ اِلَّا امْرَاَتَكَۗ اِنَّهٗ مُصِيْبُهَا مَآ اَصَابَهُمْ ۗاِنَّ مَوْعِدَهُمُ الصُّبْحُ ۗ اَلَيْسَ الصُّبْحُ بِقَرِيْبٍ ۝٨١

81. They said, “O Lot, we are the envoys of your Lord; they will not reach you. So set out with your family during the cover of the night, and let none of you look back, except for your wife. She will be struck by what will strike them. Their appointed time is the morning. Is not the morning near?”

فَلَمَّا جَاۤءَ اَمْرُنَا جَعَلْنَا عَالِيَهَا سَافِلَهَا وَاَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهَا حِجَارَةً مِّنْ سِجِّيْلٍ مَّنْضُوْدٍ ۝٨٢

Falammā jā-a amrunā ja‘alnā ‘āliyahā sāfilahā wa amṭornā ‘alaihā ḥijārotam min sijjīlim manḍūd

82. And when Our command came about, We turned it upside down, and We rained down on it stones of baked clay.

مُسَوَّمَةً عِنْدَ رَبِّكَۗ وَمَا هِيَ مِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ بِبَعِيْدٍ ࣖ ۝٨٣

Musawwamatan ‘inda robbik wa mā hiya minaẓ-ẓōlimīna biba‘īd

83. Marked from your Lord, and never far from the wrongdoers.

وَاِلٰى مَدْيَنَ اَخَاهُمْ شُعَيْبًا ۗقَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَيْرُهٗ ۗوَلَا تَنْقُصُوا الْمِكْيَالَ وَالْمِيْزَانَ اِنِّيْٓ اَرٰىكُمْ بِخَيْرٍ وَّاِنِّيْٓ اَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ مُّحِيْطٍ ۝٨٤

Wa ilā madyana akhōhum syu‘aibā, qōla yā qoumi‘budullāha mā lakum min ilāhin ghoiruh, wa lā tanquṣul-mikyāla wal-mīzāna innī arōkum bikhoiriw wa innī akhōfu ‘alaikum ‘ażāba yaumim muḥīṭ

84. And to Midian, their brother Shuaib. He said, “O my people, worship Allah; you have no god other than Him. And do not short measure or short weight. I see you in good circumstances, but I fear for you the agony of an encompassing Day.”

وَيٰقَوْمِ اَوْفُوا الْمِكْيَالَ وَالْمِيْزَانَ بِالْقِسْطِ وَلَا تَبْخَسُوا النَّاسَ اَشْيَاۤءَهُمْ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا فِى الْاَرْضِ مُفْسِدِيْنَ ۝٨٥

Wa yā qoumi auful-mikyāla wal-mīzāna bil-qisṭi wa lā tabkhosun-nāsa asy-yā-ahum wa lā ta‘ṡau fil-arḍi mufsidīn

85. “O my people! Give full measure and full weight, in all fairness, and do not cheat the people out of their rights, and do not spread corruption in the land.

بَقِيَّتُ اللّٰهِ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُّؤْمِنِيْنَ ەۚ وَمَآ اَنَا۠ عَلَيْكُمْ بِحَفِيْظٍ ۝٨٦

Baqiyyatullāhi khoirul lakum in kuntum mu'minīn, wa mā ana ‘alaikum biḥafīẓ

86. What is left by Allah is best for you, if you are believers. And I am not a guardian over you.”

قَالُوْا يٰشُعَيْبُ اَصَلٰوتُكَ تَأْمُرُكَ اَنْ نَّتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ اٰبَاۤؤُنَآ اَوْ اَنْ نَّفْعَلَ فِيْٓ اَمْوَالِنَا مَا نَشٰۤؤُا ۗاِنَّكَ لَاَنْتَ الْحَلِيْمُ الرَّشِيْدُ ۝٨٧

Qōlū yā syu‘aibu aṣolātuka ta'muruka an natruka mā ya‘budu ābā-unā au an naf‘ala fī amwālinā mā nasyā', innaka la'antal-ḥalīmur-rosyīd

87. They said, “O Shuaib, does your prayer command you that we abandon what our ancestors worshiped, or doing with our wealth what we want? You are the one who is intelligent and wise.”

قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اَرَءَيْتُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُ عَلٰى بَيِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّيْ وَرَزَقَنِيْ مِنْهُ رِزْقًا حَسَنًا وَّمَآ اُرِيْدُ اَنْ اُخَالِفَكُمْ اِلٰى مَآ اَنْهٰىكُمْ عَنْهُ ۗاِنْ اُرِيْدُ اِلَّا الْاِصْلَاحَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُۗ وَمَا تَوْفِيْقِيْٓ اِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ ۗعَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَاِلَيْهِ اُنِيْبُ ۝٨٨

Qōla yā qoumi aro'aitum in kuntu ‘alā bayyinatim mir robbī wa rozaqonī minhu rizqon ḥasanaw wa mā urīdu an ukhōlifakum ila mā anhākum ‘anh, in urīdu illal-iṣlāḥa mastaṭo‘t, wa mā taufīqī illā billāh, ‘alaihi tawakkaltu wa ilaihi unīb

88. He said, “O my people, have you considered? What if I have clear evidence from my Lord, and He has given me good livelihood from Himself? I have no desire to do what I forbid you from doing. I desire nothing but reform, as far as I can. My success lies only with Allah. In Him I trust, and to Him I turn.”

وَيٰقَوْمِ لَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شِقَاقِيْٓ اَنْ يُّصِيْبَكُمْ مِّثْلُ مَآ اَصَابَ قَوْمَ نُوْحٍ اَوْ قَوْمَ هُوْدٍ اَوْ قَوْمَ صٰلِحٍ ۗوَمَا قَوْمُ لُوْطٍ مِّنْكُمْ بِبَعِيْدٍ ۝٨٩

Wa yā qoumi lā yajrimannakum syiqōqī ay yuṣībakum miṡlu mā aṣōba qouma nūḥin au qouma hūdin au qouma ṣōliḥ, wa mā qoumu lūṭim minkum biba‘īd

89. “O my people, let not your hostility towards me cause you to suffer what was suffered by the people of Noah, or the people of Hud, or the people of Saleh. The people of Lot are not far away from you.”

وَاسْتَغْفِرُوْا رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوْبُوْٓا اِلَيْهِ ۗاِنَّ رَبِّيْ رَحِيْمٌ وَّدُوْدٌ ۝٩٠

Wastaghfirū robbakum ṡumma tūbū ilaih, inna robbī roḥīmuw wadūd

90. “And ask your Lord for forgiveness, and repent to Him. My Lord is Merciful and Loving.”

قَالُوْا يٰشُعَيْبُ مَا نَفْقَهُ كَثِيْرًا مِّمَّا تَقُوْلُ وَاِنَّا لَنَرٰىكَ فِيْنَا ضَعِيْفًا ۗوَلَوْلَا رَهْطُكَ لَرَجَمْنٰكَ ۖوَمَآ اَنْتَ عَلَيْنَا بِعَزِيْزٍ ۝٩١

Qōlū yā syu‘aibu mā nafqohu kaṡīrom mimmā taqūlu wa innā lanarōka fīnā ḍo‘īfā, wa lau lā rohṭuka larojamnāk, wa anta ‘alainā bi‘azīz

91. They said, “O Shuaib, we do not understand much of what you say, and we see that you are weak among us. Were it not for your tribe, we would have stoned you. You are of no value to us.”

قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اَرَهْطِيْٓ اَعَزُّ عَلَيْكُمْ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ ۗوَاتَّخَذْتُمُوْهُ وَرَاۤءَكُمْ ظِهْرِيًّا ۗاِنَّ رَبِّيْ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ مُحِيْطٌ ۝٩٢

Qōla yā qoumi arohṭī a‘azzu ‘alaikum minallāh, wattakhożtumūhu warō-akum ẓihriyyā, inna robbī bimā ta‘malūna muḥīṭ

92. He said, “O my people, is my tribe more important to you than Allah? And you have turned your backs on Him? My Lord comprehends everything you do.”

وَيٰقَوْمِ اعْمَلُوْا عَلٰى مَكَانَتِكُمْ اِنِّيْ عَامِلٌ ۗسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُوْنَۙ مَنْ يَّأْتِيْهِ عَذَابٌ يُّخْزِيْهِ وَمَنْ هُوَ كَاذِبٌۗ وَارْتَقِبُوْٓا اِنِّيْ مَعَكُمْ رَقِيْبٌ ۝٩٣

Wa yā qoumi‘malū ‘alā makānatikum innī ‘āmil, saufa ta‘lamūn, may ya'tīhi ‘ażābuy yukhzīhi wa man huwa kāżib, wartaqibū innī ma‘akum roqīb

93. “O my people, do as you may, and so will I. You will know to whom will come a punishment that will shame him, and who is a liar. So look out; I am on the lookout with you.”

وَلَمَّا جَاۤءَ اَمْرُنَا نَجَّيْنَا شُعَيْبًا وَّالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَعَهٗ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِّنَّاۚ وَاَخَذَتِ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوا الصَّيْحَةُ فَاَصْبَحُوْا فِيْ دِيَارِهِمْ جٰثِمِيْنَۙ ۝٩٤

Wa lammā jā-a amrunā najjainā syu‘aibaw wal-lażīna amanū ma‘ahū biroḥmatim minnā, wa akhożatil-lażīna ẓolamuṣ-ṣoiḥatu fa aṣbaḥū fī diyārihim jāṡimīn

94. And when Our command came, We saved Shuaib and those who believed with him, by mercy from Us, and the Blast struck the wrongdoers, and they became motionless bodies in their homes.

كَاَنْ لَّمْ يَغْنَوْا فِيْهَا ۗ اَلَا بُعْدًا لِّمَدْيَنَ كَمَا بَعِدَتْ ثَمُوْدُ ࣖ ۝٩٥

Ka allam yaghnau fīhā, alā bu‘dal limadyana kamā ba‘idat ṡamūd

95. As though they never flourished therein. Away with Midian, as was done away with Thamood.

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا مُوْسٰى بِاٰيٰتِنَا وَسُلْطٰنٍ مُّبِيْنٍۙ ۝٩٦

Wa laqod arsalnā mūsā bi'āyātinā wa sulṭōnim mubīn

96. And We sent Moses with Our signs and a clear mandate.

اِلٰى فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَا۟ىِٕهٖ فَاتَّبَعُوْٓا اَمْرَ فِرْعَوْنَ ۚوَمَآ اَمْرُ فِرْعَوْنَ بِرَشِيْدٍ ۝٩٧

Ilā fir‘auna wa mala'ihī fattaba‘ū amro fir‘aun, wa mā amru fir‘auna birosyīd

97. To Pharaoh and his nobles, but they followed the command of Pharaoh, and the command of Pharaoh was not wise.

يَقْدُمُ قَوْمَهٗ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ فَاَوْرَدَهُمُ النَّارَ ۗوَبِئْسَ الْوِرْدُ الْمَوْرُوْدُ ۝٩٨

Yaqdumu qoumahū yaumal-qiyāmati fa aurodahumun-nār, wa bi'sal-wirdul-maurūd

98. He will precede his people on the Day of Resurrection, and will lead them into the Fire. Miserable is the place he placed them in.

وَاُتْبِعُوْا فِيْ هٰذِهٖ لَعْنَةً وَّيَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِۗ بِئْسَ الرِّفْدُ الْمَرْفُوْدُ ۝٩٩

Wa utbi‘ū fī hāżihī la‘nataw wa yaumal-qiyāmah, bi'sar-rifdul-marfūd

99. They were followed by a curse in this, and on the Day of Resurrection. Miserable is the path they followed.

ذٰلِكَ مِنْ اَنْۢبَاۤءِ الْقُرٰى نَقُصُّهٗ عَلَيْكَ مِنْهَا قَاۤىِٕمٌ وَّحَصِيْدٌ ۝١٠٠

Żālika min ambā-il-qurō naquṣṣuhū ‘alaika minhā qō-imuw wa ḥaṣīd

100. These are of the reports of the towns—We relate them to you. Some are still standing, and some have withered away.

وَمَا ظَلَمْنٰهُمْ وَلٰكِنْ ظَلَمُوْٓا اَنْفُسَهُمْ فَمَآ اَغْنَتْ عَنْهُمْ اٰلِهَتُهُمُ الَّتِيْ يَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ لَّمَّا جَاۤءَ اَمْرُ رَبِّكَۗ وَمَا زَادُوْهُمْ غَيْرَ تَتْبِيْبٍ ۝١٠١

Wa mā ẓolamnāhum wa lākin ẓolamū anfusahum famā aghnat ‘anhum ālihatuhumul-latī yad‘ūna min dūnillāhi min syai'il lammā jā-a amru robbik, wa mā zādūhum ghoiro tatbīb

101. We did not wrong them, but they wronged themselves. Their gods, whom they invoked besides Allah, availed them nothing when the command of your Lord arrived. In fact, they added only to their ruin.

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَخْذُ رَبِّكَ اِذَآ اَخَذَ الْقُرٰى وَهِيَ ظَالِمَةٌ ۗاِنَّ اَخْذَهٗٓ اَلِيْمٌ شَدِيْدٌ ۝١٠٢

Wa każālika akhżu robbika iżā akhożal-qurō wa hiya ẓōlimah, inna akhżahū alīmun syadīd

102. Such is the grip of your Lord when He seizes the towns in the midst of their sins. His grip is most painful, most severe.

اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيَةً لِّمَنْ خَافَ عَذَابَ الْاٰخِرَةِ ۗذٰلِكَ يَوْمٌ مَّجْمُوْعٌۙ لَّهُ النَّاسُ وَذٰلِكَ يَوْمٌ مَّشْهُوْدٌ ۝١٠٣

Inna fī żālika la'āyatal liman khōfa ‘ażābal-ākhiroh, żālika yaumum majmū‘, lahun-nāsu wa żālika yaumum masyhūd

103. In that is a sign for whoever fears the punishment of the Hereafter. That is a Day for which humanity will be gathered together—that is a Day to be witnessed.

وَمَا نُؤَخِّرُهٗٓ اِلَّا لِاَجَلٍ مَّعْدُوْدٍۗ ۝١٠٤

Wa mā nu'akhkhiruhū illā li'ajalim ma‘dūd

104. We only postpone it until a predetermined time.

يَوْمَ يَأْتِ لَا تَكَلَّمُ نَفْسٌ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِهٖۚ فَمِنْهُمْ شَقِيٌّ وَّسَعِيْدٌ ۝١٠٥

Yauma ya'ti lā takallamu nafsun illā bi'iżnih, fa minhum syaqiyyuw wa sa‘īd

105. On the Day when it arrives, no soul will speak without His permission. Some will be miserable, and some will be happy.

فَاَمَّا الَّذِيْنَ شَقُوْا فَفِى النَّارِ لَهُمْ فِيْهَا زَفِيْرٌ وَّشَهِيْقٌۙ ۝١٠٦

Fa ammal-lażīna syaqū fa fin-nāri lahum fīhā zafīruw wa syahīq

106. As for those who are miserable, they will be in the Fire. They will have therein sighing and wailing.

خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهَا مَا دَامَتِ السَّمٰوٰتُ وَالْاَرْضُ اِلَّا مَا شَاۤءَ رَبُّكَۗ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ فَعَّالٌ لِّمَا يُرِيْدُ ۝١٠٧

Khōlidīna fīhā mā dāmatis-samāwātu wal-arḍu illā mā syā-a robbuk, inna robbaka fa‘‘ālul limā yurīd

107. Remaining therein for as long as the heavens and the earth endure, except as your Lord wills. Your Lord is Doer of whatever He wills.

وَاَمَّا الَّذِيْنَ سُعِدُوْا فَفِى الْجَنَّةِ خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهَا مَا دَامَتِ السَّمٰوٰتُ وَالْاَرْضُ اِلَّا مَا شَاۤءَ رَبُّكَۗ عَطَاۤءً غَيْرَ مَجْذُوْذٍ ۝١٠٨

Wa ammal-lażīna su‘idū fa fil-jannati khōlidīna fīhā mā dāmatis-samāwātu wal-arḍu illā mā syā-a robbuk, ‘aṭō-an ghoiro majżūż

108. And as for those who are happy, they will be in Paradise, remaining therein for as long as the heavens and the earth endure, except as your Lord wills—a reward without end.

فَلَا تَكُ فِيْ مِرْيَةٍ مِّمَّا يَعْبُدُ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ ۗمَا يَعْبُدُوْنَ اِلَّا كَمَا يَعْبُدُ اٰبَاۤؤُهُمْ مِّنْ قَبْلُ ۗوَاِنَّا لَمُوَفُّوْهُمْ نَصِيْبَهُمْ غَيْرَ مَنْقُوْصٍ ࣖ ۝١٠٩

Falā taku fī miryatim mimmā ya‘budu hā-ulā', mā ya‘budūna illā kamā ya‘budu ābā-uhum min qobl, wa innā lamuwaffūhum naṣībahum ghoiro manqūṣ

109. So be not in doubt regarding what these people worship. They worship only as their ancestors worshiped before. We will pay them their due in full, without any reduction.

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوْسَى الْكِتٰبَ فَاخْتُلِفَ فِيْهِ ۗوَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ لَقُضِيَ بَيْنَهُمْ ۗوَاِنَّهُمْ لَفِيْ شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ مُرِيْبٍ ۝١١٠

Wa laqod ātainā mūsal-kitāba fakhtulifa fīh, wa lau lā kalimatun sabaqot mir robbika laquḍiya bainahum, wa innahum lafī syakkim minhu murīb

110. We gave Moses the Scripture, but it was disputed. Were it not for a prior word from your Lord, it would have been settled between them. They are in serious doubt concerning it.

وَاِنَّ كُلًّا لَّمَّا لَيُوَفِّيَنَّهُمْ رَبُّكَ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۗاِنَّهٗ بِمَا يَعْمَلُوْنَ خَبِيْرٌ ۝١١١

Wa inna kullan lammā layuwaffiyannahum robbuka a‘mālahum, innahū bimā ya‘malūna khobīr

111. Your Lord will repay each one of them in full for their deeds. He is Aware of everything they do.

فَاسْتَقِمْ كَمَآ اُمِرْتَ وَمَنْ تَابَ مَعَكَ وَلَا تَطْغَوْاۗ اِنَّهٗ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِيْرٌ ۝١١٢

Fastaqim kamā umirta wa man tāba ma‘aka wa lā taṭghou, innahū bimā ta‘malūna baṣīr

112. So be upright, as you are commanded, along with those who repented with you, and do not transgress. He is Seeing of everything you do.

وَلَا تَرْكَنُوْٓا اِلَى الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا فَتَمَسَّكُمُ النَّارُۙ وَمَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مِنْ اَوْلِيَاۤءَ ثُمَّ لَا تُنْصَرُوْنَ ۝١١٣

Wa lā tarkanū ilal-lażīna ẓolamū fa tamassakumun-nār, wa mā lakum min dūnillāhi min auliyā-a ṡumma lā tunṣorūn

113. And do not incline towards those who do wrong, or the Fire may touch you; and you will have no protectors besides Allah, and you will not be saved.

وَاَقِمِ الصَّلٰوةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِّنَ الَّيْلِ ۗاِنَّ الْحَسَنٰتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّاٰتِۗ ذٰلِكَ ذِكْرٰى لِلذّٰكِرِيْنَ ۝١١٤

Wa aqimiṣ-ṣolāta ṭorofayin-nahāri wa zulafam minal-lail, innal-ḥasanāti yużhibnas-sayyi'āt, żālika żikrō liż-żākirīn

114. Perform the prayer at the borders of the day, and during the approaches of the night. The good deeds take away the bad deeds. This is a reminder for those who remember.

وَاصْبِرْ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُضِيْعُ اَجْرَ الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ ۝١١٥

Waṣbir fa innallāha lā yaḍī‘u ajrol-muḥsinīn

115. And be patient. Allah will not waste the reward of the virtuous.

فَلَوْلَا كَانَ مِنَ الْقُرُوْنِ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ اُولُوْا بَقِيَّةٍ يَّنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْفَسَادِ فِى الْاَرْضِ اِلَّا قَلِيْلًا مِّمَّنْ اَنْجَيْنَا مِنْهُمْ ۚوَاتَّبَعَ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا مَآ اُتْرِفُوْا فِيْهِ وَكَانُوْا مُجْرِمِيْنَ ۝١١٦

Fa lau lā kāna minal-qurūni min qoblikum ulū baqiyyatiy yanhauna ‘anil-fasādi fil-arḍi illā qolīlam mimman anjainā minhum, wattaba‘al-lażīna ẓolamū mā utrifū fīhi wa kānū mujrimīn

116. If only there were, among the generations before you, people with wisdom, who spoke against corruption on earth—except for the few whom We saved. But the wrongdoers pursued the luxuries they were indulged in, and thus became guilty.

وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ لِيُهْلِكَ الْقُرٰى بِظُلْمٍ وَّاَهْلُهَا مُصْلِحُوْنَ ۝١١٧

Wa mā kāna robbuka liyuhlikal-qurō biẓulmiw wa ahluhā muṣliḥūn

117. Your Lord would never destroy the towns wrongfully, while their inhabitants are righteous.

وَلَوْ شَاۤءَ رَبُّكَ لَجَعَلَ النَّاسَ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةً وَّلَا يَزَالُوْنَ مُخْتَلِفِيْنَۙ ۝١١٨

Wa lau syā-a robbuka laja‘alan-nāsa ummataw wāḥidataw wa lā yazālūna mukhtalifīn

118. Had your Lord willed, He could have made humanity one community, but they continue to differ.

اِلَّا مَنْ رَّحِمَ رَبُّكَ ۗوَلِذٰلِكَ خَلَقَهُمْ ۗوَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَةُ رَبِّكَ لَاَمْلَـَٔنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنَّاسِ اَجْمَعِيْنَ ۝١١٩

Illā mar roḥima robbuk, wa liżālika kholaqohum, wa tammat kalimatu robbika la'amla'anna jahannama minal-jinnati wan-nāsi ajma‘īn

119. Except those on whom your Lord has mercy—for that reason He created them. The Word of your Lord is final: “I will fill Hell with jinn and humans, all together.”

وَكُلًّا نَّقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ اَنْۢبَاۤءِ الرُّسُلِ مَا نُثَبِّتُ بِهٖ فُؤَادَكَ وَجَاۤءَكَ فِيْ هٰذِهِ الْحَقُّ وَمَوْعِظَةٌ وَّذِكْرٰى لِلْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ ۝١٢٠

Wa kullan naquṣṣu ‘alaika min ambā-ir-rusuli mā nuṡabbitu bihī fu'ādaka wa jā-aka fī hāżihil-ḥaqqu wa mau‘iẓotuw wa żikrō lil-mu'minīn

120. Everything We narrate to you of the history of the messengers is to strengthen your heart therewith. The truth has come to you in this, and a lesson, and a reminder for the believers.

وَقُلْ لِّلَّذِيْنَ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ اعْمَلُوْا عَلٰى مَكَانَتِكُمْۗ اِنَّا عٰمِلُوْنَۙ ۝١٢١

Wa qul lil-lażīna lā yu'minūna‘malū ‘alā makānatikum, innā ‘āmilūn

121. And say to those who do not believe, “Act according to your ability; and so will we.”

وَانْتَظِرُوْاۚ اِنَّا مُنْتَظِرُوْنَ ۝١٢٢

Wantaẓirū innā muntaẓirūn

122. “And wait; we too are waiting.”

وَلِلّٰهِ غَيْبُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَاِلَيْهِ يُرْجَعُ الْاَمْرُ كُلُّهٗ فَاعْبُدْهُ وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَيْهِۗ وَمَا رَبُّكَ بِغَافِلٍ عَمَّا تَعْمَلُوْنَ ࣖ ۝١٢٣

Wa lillāhi ghoibus-samāwāti wal-arḍi wa ilaihi yurja‘ul-amru kulluhū fa‘bud-hu wa tawakkal ‘alaih, wa mā robbuka bighōfilin ‘ammā ta‘malūn

123. To Allah belongs the future of the heavens and the earth, and to Him all authority goes back. So worship Him, and rely on Him. Your Lord is never unaware of what you do.

الۤرٰ ۗ تِلْكَ اٰيٰتُ الْكِتٰبِ الْمُبِيْنِۗ ۝١

Alif lām rō, tilka āyātul-kitābil-mubīn

1. Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the Verses of the Clear Book.

اِنَّآ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ قُرْاٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُوْنَ ۝٢

Innā anzalnāhu qur'ānan ‘arobiyyal la‘allakum ta‘qilūn

2. We have revealed it an Arabic Quran, so that you may understand.

نَحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ اَحْسَنَ الْقَصَصِ بِمَآ اَوْحَيْنَآ اِلَيْكَ هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنَۖ وَاِنْ كُنْتَ مِنْ قَبْلِهٖ لَمِنَ الْغٰفِلِيْنَ ۝٣

Naḥnu naquṣṣu ‘alaika aḥsanal-qoṣoṣi bimā auḥainā ilaika hāżal-qur'ān, wa in kunta min qoblihī laminal-ghōfilīn

3. We narrate to you the most accurate history, by revealing to you this Quran. Although, prior to it, you were of the unaware.

اِذْ قَالَ يُوْسُفُ لِاَبِيْهِ يٰٓاَبَتِ اِنِّيْ رَاَيْتُ اَحَدَ عَشَرَ كَوْكَبًا وَّالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ رَاَيْتُهُمْ لِيْ سٰجِدِيْنَ ۝٤

Iż qōla yūsufu li'abīhi yā abati innī ro'aitu aḥada ‘asyaro kaukabaw wasy-syamsa wal-qomaro ro'aituhum lī sājidīn

4. When Joseph said to his father, “O my father, I saw eleven planets, and the sun, and the moon; I saw them bowing down to me.”

قَالَ يٰبُنَيَّ لَا تَقْصُصْ رُءْيَاكَ عَلٰٓى اِخْوَتِكَ فَيَكِيْدُوْا لَكَ كَيْدًا ۗاِنَّ الشَّيْطٰنَ لِلْاِنْسَانِ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِيْنٌ ۝٥

Qōla yā bunayya lā taqṣuṣ ru'yāka ‘alā ikhwatika fa yakīdū laka kaidā, innasy-syaiṭōna lil-insāni ‘aduwwum mubīn

5. He said, “O my son, do not relate your vision to your brothers, lest they plot and scheme against you. Satan is man’s sworn enemy.

وَكَذٰلِكَ يَجْتَبِيْكَ رَبُّكَ وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِنْ تَأْوِيْلِ الْاَحَادِيْثِ وَيُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَهٗ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلٰٓى اٰلِ يَعْقُوْبَ كَمَآ اَتَمَّهَا عَلٰٓى اَبَوَيْكَ مِنْ قَبْلُ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ وَاِسْحٰقَۗ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيْمٌ حَكِيْمٌ ࣖ ۝٦

Wa każālika yajtabīka robbuka wa yu‘allimuka min ta'wīlil-aḥādīṡi wa yutimmu ni‘matahū ‘alaika wa ‘alā āli ya‘qūba kamā atammahā ‘alā abawaika min qoblu ibrōhīma wa isḥāq, inna robbaka ‘alīmun ḥakīm

6. And thus your Lord will choose you, and will teach you the interpretation of events, and will complete His blessing upon you and upon the family of Jacob, as He has completed it before upon your forefathers Abraham and Isaac. Your Lord is Knowing and Wise.”

لَقَدْ كَانَ فِيْ يُوْسُفَ وَاِخْوَتِهٖٓ اٰيٰتٌ لِّلسَّاۤىِٕلِيْنَ ۝٧

Laqod kāna fī yūsufa wa ikhwatihī āyātul lis-sā-ilīn

7. In Joseph and his brothers are lessons for the seekers.

اِذْ قَالُوْا لَيُوْسُفُ وَاَخُوْهُ اَحَبُّ اِلٰٓى اَبِيْنَا مِنَّا وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَةٌ ۗاِنَّ اَبَانَا لَفِيْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيْنٍۙ ۝٨

Iż qōlū layūsufu wa akhūhu aḥabbu ilā abīnā minnā wa naḥnu ‘uṣbah, inna abānā lafī ḍolālim mubīn

8. When they said, “Joseph and his brother are dearer to our father than we are, although we are a whole group. Our father is obviously in the wrong.

ۨاقْتُلُوْا يُوْسُفَ اَوِ اطْرَحُوْهُ اَرْضًا يَّخْلُ لَكُمْ وَجْهُ اَبِيْكُمْ وَتَكُوْنُوْا مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ قَوْمًا صٰلِحِيْنَ ۝٩

Uqtulū yūsufa awiṭroḥūhu arḍoy yakhlu lakum wajhu abīkum wa takūnū mim ba‘dihī qouman ṣōliḥīn

9. Kill Joseph, or throw him somewhere in the land, and your father’s attention will be yours. Afterwards, you will be decent people.”

قَالَ قَاۤىِٕلٌ مِّنْهُمْ لَا تَقْتُلُوْا يُوْسُفَ وَاَلْقُوْهُ فِيْ غَيٰبَتِ الْجُبِّ يَلْتَقِطْهُ بَعْضُ السَّيَّارَةِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ فٰعِلِيْنَ ۝١٠

Qōla qō-ilum minhum lā taqtulū yūsufa wa alqūhu fī ghoyābatil-jubbi yaltaqiṭhu ba‘ḍus-sayyāroti in kuntum fā‘ilīn

10. One of them said, “Do not kill Joseph, but throw him into the bottom of the well; some caravan may pick him up—if you must do something.”

قَالُوْا يٰٓاَبَانَا مَا لَكَ لَا تَأْمَنَّ۫ا عَلٰى يُوْسُفَ وَاِنَّا لَهٗ لَنٰصِحُوْنَ ۝١١

Qōlū yā abānā mā laka lā ta'mannā ‘alā yūsufa wa innā lahū lanāṣiḥūn

11. They said, “Father, why do you not trust us with Joseph, although we care for him?”

اَرْسِلْهُ مَعَنَا غَدًا يَّرْتَعْ وَيَلْعَبْ وَاِنَّا لَهٗ لَحٰفِظُوْنَ ۝١٢

Arsilhu ma‘anā ghoday yarta‘ wa yal‘ab wa innā lahū laḥāfiẓūn

12. “Send him with us tomorrow, that he may roam and play; we will take care of him.”

قَالَ اِنِّيْ لَيَحْزُنُنِيْٓ اَنْ تَذْهَبُوْا بِهٖ وَاَخَافُ اَنْ يَّأْكُلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَاَنْتُمْ عَنْهُ غٰفِلُوْنَ ۝١٣

Qōla innī layaḥzununī an tażhabū bihī wa akhōfu ay ya'kulahuż-żi'bu wa antum ‘anhu ghōfilūn

13. He said, “It worries me that you would take him away. And I fear the wolf may eat him while you are careless of him.”

قَالُوْا لَىِٕنْ اَكَلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَةٌ اِنَّآ اِذًا لَّخٰسِرُوْنَ ۝١٤

Qōlū la'in akalahuż-żi'bu wa naḥnu ‘uṣbatun innā iżal lakhōsirūn

14. They said, “If the wolf ate him, and we are many, we would be good for nothing.”

فَلَمَّا ذَهَبُوْا بِهٖ وَاَجْمَعُوْٓا اَنْ يَّجْعَلُوْهُ فِيْ غَيٰبَتِ الْجُبِّۚ وَاَوْحَيْنَآ اِلَيْهِ لَتُنَبِّئَنَّهُمْ بِاَمْرِهِمْ هٰذَا وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُوْنَ ۝١٥

Falammā żahabū bihī wa ajma‘ū ay yaj‘alūhu fī ghoyābatil-jubb, wa auḥainā ilaihi latunabbi'annahum bi'amrihim hāżā wa hum lā yasy‘urūn

15. So they went away with him, and agreed to put him at the bottom of the well. And We inspired him, “You will inform them of this deed of theirs when they are unaware.”

وَجَاۤءُوْٓ اَبَاهُمْ عِشَاۤءً يَّبْكُوْنَۗ ۝١٦

Wa jā-ū abāhum ‘isyā-ay yabkūn

16. And they came to their father in the evening weeping.

قَالُوْا يٰٓاَبَانَآ اِنَّا ذَهَبْنَا نَسْتَبِقُ وَتَرَكْنَا يُوْسُفَ عِنْدَ مَتَاعِنَا فَاَكَلَهُ الذِّئْبُۚ وَمَآ اَنْتَ بِمُؤْمِنٍ لَّنَا وَلَوْ كُنَّا صٰدِقِيْنَ ۝١٧

Qōlū yā abānā innā żahabnā nastabiqu wa taroknā yūsufa ‘inda matā‘inā fa akalahuż-żi'b, wa mā anta bimu'minil lanā wa lau kunnā ṣōdiqīn

17. They said, “O father, we went off racing one another, and left Joseph by our belongings; and the wolf ate him. But you will not believe us, even though we are being truthful.”

وَجَاۤءُوْ عَلٰى قَمِيْصِهٖ بِدَمٍ كَذِبٍۗ قَالَ بَلْ سَوَّلَتْ لَكُمْ اَنْفُسُكُمْ اَمْرًاۗ فَصَبْرٌ جَمِيْلٌ ۗوَاللّٰهُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلٰى مَا تَصِفُوْنَ ۝١٨

Wa jā-ū ‘alā qomīṣihī bidamin każib, qōla bal sawwalat lakum anfusukum amrō, fa ṣobrun jamīl, wallāhul musta‘ānu ‘alā mā taṣifūn

18. And they brought his shirt, with fake blood on it. He said, “Your souls enticed you to do something. But patience is beautiful, and Allah is my Help against what you describe.”

وَجَاۤءَتْ سَيَّارَةٌ فَاَرْسَلُوْا وَارِدَهُمْ فَاَدْلٰى دَلْوَهٗ ۗقَالَ يٰبُشْرٰى هٰذَا غُلٰمٌ ۗوَاَسَرُّوْهُ بِضَاعَةً ۗوَاللّٰهُ عَلِيْمٌ ۢبِمَا يَعْمَلُوْنَ ۝١٩

Wa jā-at sayyārotun fa arsalū wāridahum fa adlā dalwah, qōla yā busyrō hāżā ghulām, wa asarrūhu biḍō‘ah, wallāhu ‘alīmum bimā ya‘malūn

19. A caravan passed by, and they sent their water-carrier. He lowered his bucket, and said, “Good news. Here is a boy.” And they hid him as merchandise. But Allah was aware of what they did.

وَشَرَوْهُ بِثَمَنٍۢ بَخْسٍ دَرَاهِمَ مَعْدُوْدَةٍ ۚوَكَانُوْا فِيْهِ مِنَ الزّٰهِدِيْنَ ࣖ ۝٢٠

Wa syarouhu biṡamanim bakhsin darōhima ma‘dūdah, wa kānū fīhi minaz-zāhidīn

20. And they sold him for a cheap price—a few coins—they considered him to be of little value.

وَقَالَ الَّذِى اشْتَرٰىهُ مِنْ مِّصْرَ لِامْرَاَتِهٖٓ اَكْرِمِيْ مَثْوٰىهُ عَسٰىٓ اَنْ يَّنْفَعَنَآ اَوْ نَتَّخِذَهٗ وَلَدًا ۗوَكَذٰلِكَ مَكَّنَّا لِيُوْسُفَ فِى الْاَرْضِۖ وَلِنُعَلِّمَهٗ مِنْ تَأْوِيْلِ الْاَحَادِيْثِۗ وَاللّٰهُ غَالِبٌ عَلٰٓى اَمْرِهٖ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ ۝٢١

Wa qōlal-lażisytarōhu mim miṣro limro'atihī akrimī maṡwāhu ‘asā ay yanfa‘anā au nattakhiżahū waladā, wa każālika makkannā liyūsufa fil-arḍ, wa linu‘allimahū min ta'wīlil-aḥādīṡ, wallāhu ghōlibun ‘alā amrihī wa lākinna akṡaron-nāsi lā ya‘lamūn

21. The Egyptian who bought him said to his wife, “Take good care of him; he may be useful to us, or we may adopt him as a son.” We thus established Joseph in the land, to teach him the interpretation of events. Allah has control over His affairs, but most people do not know.

وَلَمَّا بَلَغَ اَشُدَّهٗٓ اٰتَيْنٰهُ حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًا ۗوَكَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ ۝٢٢

Wa lammā balagho asyuddahū ātaināhu ḥukmaw wa ‘ilmā, wa każālika najzil-muḥsinīn

22. When he reached his maturity, We gave him wisdom and knowledge. We thus reward the righteous.

وَرَاوَدَتْهُ الَّتِيْ هُوَ فِيْ بَيْتِهَا عَنْ نَّفْسِهٖ وَغَلَّقَتِ الْاَبْوَابَ وَقَالَتْ هَيْتَ لَكَ ۗقَالَ مَعَاذَ اللّٰهِ اِنَّهٗ رَبِّيْٓ اَحْسَنَ مَثْوَايَۗ اِنَّهٗ لَا يُفْلِحُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ ۝٢٣

23. She in whose house he was living tried to seduce him. She shut the doors, and said, “I am yours.” He said, “Allah forbid! He is my Lord. He has given me a good home. Sinners never succeed.”

وَلَقَدْ هَمَّتْ بِهٖۙ وَهَمَّ بِهَا ۚ لَوْلَآ اَنْ رَّاٰ بُرْهَانَ رَبِّهٖۗ كَذٰلِكَ لِنَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ السُّوْۤءَ وَالْفَحْشَاۤءَۗ اِنَّهٗ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ ۝٢٤

24. She desired him, and he desired her, had he not seen the proof of his Lord. It was thus that We diverted evil and indecency away from him. He was one of Our loyal servants.

وَاسْتَبَقَا الْبَابَ وَقَدَّتْ قَمِيْصَهٗ مِنْ دُبُرٍ وَّاَلْفَيَا سَيِّدَهَا لَدَا الْبَابِۗ قَالَتْ مَا جَزَاۤءُ مَنْ اَرَادَ بِاَهْلِكَ سُوْۤءًا اِلَّآ اَنْ يُّسْجَنَ اَوْ عَذَابٌ اَلِيْمٌ ۝٢٥

25. As they raced towards the door, she tore his shirt from behind. At the door, they ran into her husband. She said, “What is the penalty for him who desired to dishonor your wife, except imprisonment or a painful punishment?”

قَالَ هِيَ رَاوَدَتْنِيْ عَنْ نَّفْسِيْ وَشَهِدَ شَاهِدٌ مِّنْ اَهْلِهَاۚ اِنْ كَانَ قَمِيْصُهٗ قُدَّ مِنْ قُبُلٍ فَصَدَقَتْ وَهُوَ مِنَ الْكٰذِبِيْنَ ۝٢٦

Qōla hiya rōwadatnī ‘an nafsī wa syahida syāhidum min ahlihā, in kāna qomīṣuhū qudda min qubulin fa ṣodaqot wa huwa minal-kāżibīn

26. He said, “It was she who tried to seduce me.” A witness from her household suggested: “If his shirt is torn from the front: then she has told the truth, and he is the liar.

وَاِنْ كَانَ قَمِيْصُهٗ قُدَّ مِنْ دُبُرٍ فَكَذَبَتْ وَهُوَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقِيْنَ ۝٢٧

Wa in kāna qomīṣuhū qudda min duburin fa każabat wa huwa minaṣ-ṣōdiqīn

27. But if his shirt is torn from the back: then she has lied, and he is the truthful.”

فَلَمَّا رَاٰ قَمِيْصَهٗ قُدَّ مِنْ دُبُرٍ قَالَ اِنَّهٗ مِنْ كَيْدِكُنَّ ۗاِنَّ كَيْدَكُنَّ عَظِيْمٌ ۝٢٨

Falammā ro'ā qomīṣohū qudda min duburin qōla innahū min kaidikunn, inna kaidakunna ‘aẓīm

28. And when he saw that his shirt was torn from the back, he said, “This is a woman’s scheme. Your scheming is serious indeed.”

يُوْسُفُ اَعْرِضْ عَنْ هٰذَا وَاسْتَغْفِرِيْ لِذَنْۢبِكِۖ اِنَّكِ كُنْتِ مِنَ الْخٰطِـِٕيْنَ ࣖ ۝٢٩

Yūsufu a‘riḍ ‘an hāżā wastaghfirī liżambik, innaki kunti minal-khōṭi'īn

29. “Joseph, turn away from this. And you, woman, ask forgiveness for your sin; you are indeed in the wrong.”

وَقَالَ نِسْوَةٌ فِى الْمَدِيْنَةِ امْرَاَتُ الْعَزِيْزِ تُرَاوِدُ فَتٰىهَا عَنْ نَّفْسِهٖۚ قَدْ شَغَفَهَا حُبًّاۗ اِنَّا لَنَرٰىهَا فِيْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيْنٍ ۝٣٠

30. Some ladies in the city said, “The governor’s wife is trying to seduce her servant. She is deeply in love with him. We see she has gone astray.”

فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ بِمَكْرِهِنَّ اَرْسَلَتْ اِلَيْهِنَّ وَاَعْتَدَتْ لَهُنَّ مُتَّكَـاً وَّاٰتَتْ كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِّنْهُنَّ سِكِّيْنًا وَّقَالَتِ اخْرُجْ عَلَيْهِنَّ ۚ فَلَمَّا رَاَيْنَهٗٓ اَكْبَرْنَهٗ وَقَطَّعْنَ اَيْدِيَهُنَّۖ وَقُلْنَ حَاشَ لِلّٰهِ مَا هٰذَا بَشَرًاۗ اِنْ هٰذَآ اِلَّا مَلَكٌ كَرِيْمٌ ۝٣١

31. And when she heard of their gossip, she invited them, and prepared for them a banquet, and she gave each one of them a knife. She said, “Come out before them.” And when they saw him, they marveled at him, and cut their hands. They said, “Good Allah, this is not a human, this must be a precious angel.”

قَالَتْ فَذٰلِكُنَّ الَّذِيْ لُمْتُنَّنِيْ فِيْهِ ۗوَلَقَدْ رَاوَدْتُّهٗ عَنْ نَّفْسِهٖ فَاسْتَعْصَمَ ۗوَلَىِٕنْ لَّمْ يَفْعَلْ مَآ اٰمُرُهٗ لَيُسْجَنَنَّ وَلَيَكُوْنًا مِّنَ الصّٰغِرِيْنَ ۝٣٢

32. She said, “Here he is, the one you blamed me for. I did try to seduce him, but he resisted. But if he does not do what I tell him to do, he will be imprisoned, and will be one of the despised.”

قَالَ رَبِّ السِّجْنُ اَحَبُّ اِلَيَّ مِمَّا يَدْعُوْنَنِيْٓ اِلَيْهِ ۚوَاِلَّا تَصْرِفْ عَنِّيْ كَيْدَهُنَّ اَصْبُ اِلَيْهِنَّ وَاَكُنْ مِّنَ الْجٰهِلِيْنَ ۝٣٣

Qōla robbis-sijnu aḥabbu ilayya mimmā yad‘ūnanī ilaih, wa illā taṣrif ‘annī kaidahunna aṣbu ilaihinna wa akum minal-jāhilīn

33. He said, “My Lord, prison is more desirable to me than what they call me to. Unless You turn their scheming away from me, I may yield to them, and become one of the ignorant.”

فَاسْتَجَابَ لَهٗ رَبُّهٗ فَصَرَفَ عَنْهُ كَيْدَهُنَّ ۗاِنَّهٗ هُوَ السَّمِيْعُ الْعَلِيْمُ ۝٣٤

Fastajāba lahū robbuhū fa ṣorofa ‘anhu kaidahunn, innahū huwas-samī‘ul-‘alīm

34. Thereupon his Lord answered him, and diverted their scheming away from him. He is the Hearer, the Knower.

ثُمَّ بَدَا لَهُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا رَاَوُا الْاٰيٰتِ لَيَسْجُنُنَّهٗ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍ ࣖ ۝٣٥

Ṡumma badā lahum mim ba‘di mā ro'awul-āyāti layasjununnahū ḥattā ḥīn

35. Then it occurred to them, after they had seen the signs, to imprison him for a while.

وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُ السِّجْنَ فَتَيٰنِ ۗقَالَ اَحَدُهُمَآ اِنِّيْٓ اَرٰىنِيْٓ اَعْصِرُ خَمْرًا ۚوَقَالَ الْاٰخَرُ اِنِّيْٓ اَرٰىنِيْٓ اَحْمِلُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِيْ خُبْزًا تَأْكُلُ الطَّيْرُ مِنْهُ ۗنَبِّئْنَا بِتَأْوِيْلِهٖ ۚاِنَّا نَرٰىكَ مِنَ الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ ۝٣٦

36. Two youth entered the prison with him. One of them said, “I see myself pressing wine.” The other said, “I see myself carrying bread on my head, from which the birds are eating. Tell us their interpretation—we see that you are one of the righteous.”

قَالَ لَا يَأْتِيْكُمَا طَعَامٌ تُرْزَقٰنِهٖٓ اِلَّا نَبَّأْتُكُمَا بِتَأْوِيْلِهٖ قَبْلَ اَنْ يَّأْتِيَكُمَا ۗذٰلِكُمَا مِمَّا عَلَّمَنِيْ رَبِّيْۗ اِنِّيْ تَرَكْتُ مِلَّةَ قَوْمٍ لَّا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِاللّٰهِ وَهُمْ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ هُمْ كٰفِرُوْنَۙ ۝٣٧

37. He said, “No food is served to you, but I have informed you about it before you have received it. That is some of what my Lord has taught me. I have forsaken the tradition of people who do not believe in Allah; and regarding the Hereafter, they are deniers.”

وَاتَّبَعْتُ مِلَّةَ اٰبَاۤءِيْٓ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ وَاِسْحٰقَ وَيَعْقُوْبَۗ مَا كَانَ لَنَآ اَنْ نُّشْرِكَ بِاللّٰهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍۗ ذٰلِكَ مِنْ فَضْلِ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى النَّاسِ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَشْكُرُوْنَ ۝٣٨

38. “And I have followed the faith of my forefathers, Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob. It is not for us to associate anything with Allah. This is by virtue of Allah’s grace upon us and upon the people, but most people do not give thanks.

يٰصَاحِبَيِ السِّجْنِ ءَاَرْبَابٌ مُّتَفَرِّقُوْنَ خَيْرٌ اَمِ اللّٰهُ الْوَاحِدُ الْقَهَّارُۗ ۝٣٩

Yā ṣōḥibayis-sijni a'arbābum mutafarriqūna khoirun amillāhul-wāḥidul-qohhār

39. O my fellow inmates, are diverse lords better, or Allah, the One, the Supreme?
