الٓر Alif Lam Ra ۚ   كِتَـٰبٌ (This is) a Book أُحْكِمَتْ are perfected ءَايَـٰتُهُۥ its Verses ثُمَّ moreover فُصِّلَتْ explained in detail مِن from (he One Who) لَّدُنْ from (he One Who) حَكِيمٍ (is) All-Wise خَبِيرٍ All-Aware

أَلَّا That "Not تَعْبُدُوٓا۟ you worship إِلَّا but ٱللَّهَ Allah ۚ   إِنَّنِى Indeed, I am لَكُم to you مِّنْهُ from Him نَذِيرٌ a warner وَبَشِيرٌ and a bearer of glad tidings

وَأَنِ And that ٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ Seek forgiveness رَبَّكُمْ (of) your Lord ثُمَّ and تُوبُوٓا۟ turn in repentance إِلَيْهِ to Him يُمَتِّعْكُم He will let you مَّتَـٰعًا enjoy حَسَنًا a good إِلَىٰٓ for أَجَلٍ a term مُّسَمًّى appointed وَيُؤْتِ And give كُلَّ (to) every ذِى owner فَضْلٍ (of) grace فَضْلَهُۥ His Grace ۖ   وَإِن But if تَوَلَّوْا۟ you turn away فَإِنِّىٓ then indeed, I أَخَافُ fear عَلَيْكُمْ for you عَذَابَ (the) punishment يَوْمٍ (of) a Great Day كَبِيرٍ (of) a Great Day

إِلَى To ٱللَّهِ Allah مَرْجِعُكُمْ (is) your return ۖ   وَهُوَ and He عَلَىٰ (is) on كُلِّ every شَىْءٍ thing قَدِيرٌ All-Powerful

أَلَآ No doubt إِنَّهُمْ They يَثْنُونَ fold up صُدُورَهُمْ their breasts لِيَسْتَخْفُوا۟ that they may hide مِنْهُ from Him ۚ   أَلَا Surely حِينَ when يَسْتَغْشُونَ they cover (themselves) ثِيَابَهُمْ (with) their garments يَعْلَمُ He knows مَا what يُسِرُّونَ they conceal وَمَا and what يُعْلِنُونَ they reveal ۚ   إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, He عَلِيمٌۢ (is) All-Knower بِذَاتِ of what ٱلصُّدُورِ (is in) the breasts

وَمَا And not مِن any دَآبَّةٍ moving creature فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth إِلَّا but عَلَى on ٱللَّهِ Allah رِزْقُهَا (is) its provision وَيَعْلَمُ And He knows مُسْتَقَرَّهَا its dwelling place وَمُسْتَوْدَعَهَا and its place of storage ۚ   كُلٌّ All فِى (is) in كِتَـٰبٍ a Record مُّبِينٍ clear

وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who خَلَقَ created ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضَ and the earth فِى in سِتَّةِ six أَيَّامٍ epochs وَكَانَ and His throne was عَرْشُهُۥ and His throne was عَلَى on ٱلْمَآءِ the water لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ that He might test [you] أَيُّكُمْ which of you أَحْسَنُ (is) best عَمَلًا (in) deed ۗ   وَلَئِن But if قُلْتَ you say إِنَّكُم Indeed, you مَّبْعُوثُونَ (will be) resurrected مِنۢ after بَعْدِ after ٱلْمَوْتِ [the] death لَيَقُولَنَّ surely would say ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوٓا۟ disbelieved إِنْ This is not هَـٰذَآ This is not إِلَّا but سِحْرٌ a magic مُّبِينٌ clear

وَلَئِنْ And if أَخَّرْنَا We delay عَنْهُمُ from them ٱلْعَذَابَ the punishment إِلَىٰٓ for أُمَّةٍ a time مَّعْدُودَةٍ determined لَّيَقُولُنَّ they will surely say مَا What يَحْبِسُهُۥٓ detains it ۗ   أَلَا No doubt يَوْمَ (On) the Day يَأْتِيهِمْ it comes to them لَيْسَ not مَصْرُوفًا (will be) averted عَنْهُمْ from them وَحَاقَ and will surround بِهِم them مَّا what كَانُوا۟ they used (to) بِهِۦ mock at [it] يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ mock at [it]

وَلَئِنْ And if أَذَقْنَا We give man a taste ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ We give man a taste مِنَّا (of) Mercy from Us رَحْمَةً (of) Mercy from Us ثُمَّ then نَزَعْنَـٰهَا We withdraw it مِنْهُ from him إِنَّهُۥ indeed, he لَيَـُٔوسٌ (is) despairing كَفُورٌ (and) ungrateful

وَلَئِنْ But if أَذَقْنَـٰهُ We give him a taste نَعْمَآءَ (of) favor بَعْدَ after ضَرَّآءَ hardship مَسَّتْهُ (has) touched him لَيَقُولَنَّ surely, he will say ذَهَبَ Have gone ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتُ the evils عَنِّىٓ from me ۚ   إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, he لَفَرِحٌ (is) exultant فَخُورٌ (and) boastful

إِلَّا Except ٱلَّذِينَ those who صَبَرُوا۟ (are) patient وَعَمِلُوا۟ and do ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ the good deeds أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ those لَهُم for them مَّغْفِرَةٌ (will be) forgiveness وَأَجْرٌ and a reward كَبِيرٌ great

فَلَعَلَّكَ Then possibly you تَارِكٌۢ (may) give up بَعْضَ a part مَا (of) what يُوحَىٰٓ is revealed إِلَيْكَ to you وَضَآئِقٌۢ and straitened بِهِۦ by it صَدْرُكَ your breast أَن because يَقُولُوا۟ they say لَوْلَآ Why not أُنزِلَ is sent down عَلَيْهِ for him كَنزٌ a treasure أَوْ or جَآءَ has come مَعَهُۥ with him مَلَكٌ an Angel ۚ   إِنَّمَآ Only أَنتَ you نَذِيرٌ (are) a warner ۚ   وَٱللَّهُ And Allah عَلَىٰ (is) on كُلِّ every شَىْءٍ thing وَكِيلٌ a Guardian

أَمْ Or يَقُولُونَ they say ٱفْتَرَىٰهُ He has fabricated it ۖ   قُلْ Say فَأْتُوا۟ Then bring بِعَشْرِ ten سُوَرٍ Surahs مِّثْلِهِۦ like it مُفْتَرَيَـٰتٍ fabricated وَٱدْعُوا۟ and call مَنِ whoever ٱسْتَطَعْتُم you can مِّن besides Allah دُونِ besides Allah ٱللَّهِ besides Allah إِن if كُنتُمْ you are صَـٰدِقِينَ truthful

فَإِلَّمْ Then if not يَسْتَجِيبُوا۟ they respond لَكُمْ to you فَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ then know أَنَّمَآ that أُنزِلَ it was sent down بِعِلْمِ with the knowledge of Allah ٱللَّهِ with the knowledge of Allah وَأَن and that لَّآ (there is) no إِلَـٰهَ god إِلَّا except هُوَ Him ۖ   فَهَلْ Then, would أَنتُم you مُّسْلِمُونَ (be) Muslims

مَن Whoever [is] كَانَ Whoever [is] يُرِيدُ desires ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ the life ٱلدُّنْيَا (of) the world وَزِينَتَهَا and its adornments نُوَفِّ We will repay in full إِلَيْهِمْ to them أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ (for) their deeds فِيهَا therein وَهُمْ and they فِيهَا in it لَا will not be lessened يُبْخَسُونَ will not be lessened

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those ٱلَّذِينَ (are) the ones who لَيْسَ (is) not لَهُمْ for them فِى in ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ the Hereafter إِلَّا except ٱلنَّارُ the Fire ۖ   وَحَبِطَ And (has) gone in vain مَا what صَنَعُوا۟ they did فِيهَا therein وَبَـٰطِلٌ and (is) worthless مَّا what كَانُوا۟ they used (to) يَعْمَلُونَ do

أَفَمَن Then is he who كَانَ is عَلَىٰ on بَيِّنَةٍ a clear proof مِّن from رَّبِّهِۦ his Lord وَيَتْلُوهُ and recites it شَاهِدٌ a witness مِّنْهُ from Him وَمِن and before it قَبْلِهِۦ and before it كِتَـٰبُ (was) a Book مُوسَىٰٓ (of) Musa إِمَامًا (as) a guide وَرَحْمَةً and (as) mercy ۚ   أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those يُؤْمِنُونَ believe بِهِۦ in it ۚ   وَمَن But whoever يَكْفُرْ disbelieves بِهِۦ in it مِنَ among ٱلْأَحْزَابِ the sects فَٱلنَّارُ then the Fire مَوْعِدُهُۥ (will be) his promised (meeting) place ۚ   فَلَا So (do) not تَكُ be فِى in مِرْيَةٍ doubt مِّنْهُ about it ۚ   إِنَّهُ Indeed, it ٱلْحَقُّ (is) the truth مِن from رَّبِّكَ your Lord وَلَـٰكِنَّ but أَكْثَرَ most ٱلنَّاسِ (of) the people لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe

وَمَنْ And who أَظْلَمُ (is) more unjust مِمَّنِ than (he) who ٱفْتَرَىٰ invents عَلَى against ٱللَّهِ Allah كَذِبًا a lie ۚ   أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those يُعْرَضُونَ will be presented عَلَىٰ before رَبِّهِمْ their Lord وَيَقُولُ and will say ٱلْأَشْهَـٰدُ the witnesses هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ These (are) ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَذَبُوا۟ lied عَلَىٰ against رَبِّهِمْ their Lord ۚ   أَلَا No doubt لَعْنَةُ (The) curse of Allah ٱللَّهِ (The) curse of Allah عَلَى (is) on ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoers

ٱلَّذِينَ Those who يَصُدُّونَ hinder عَن from سَبِيلِ (the) way ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَيَبْغُونَهَا and seek (in) it عِوَجًا crookedness وَهُم while they بِٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ in the Hereafter هُمْ [they] كَـٰفِرُونَ (are) disbelievers

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those لَمْ not يَكُونُوا۟ will be مُعْجِزِينَ (able to) escape فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth وَمَا and not كَانَ is لَهُم for them مِّن besides دُونِ besides ٱللَّهِ Allah مِنْ any أَوْلِيَآءَ protectors ۘ   يُضَـٰعَفُ And will be doubled لَهُمُ for them ٱلْعَذَابُ the punishment ۚ   مَا Not كَانُوا۟ they were يَسْتَطِيعُونَ able ٱلسَّمْعَ (to) hear وَمَا and not كَانُوا۟ they used (to) يُبْصِرُونَ see

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those ٱلَّذِينَ (are) the ones who خَسِرُوٓا۟ (have) lost أَنفُسَهُمْ their souls وَضَلَّ and lost عَنْهُم from them مَّا (is) what كَانُوا۟ they used يَفْتَرُونَ (to) invent

لَا No جَرَمَ doubt أَنَّهُمْ that they فِى in ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ the Hereafter هُمُ [they] ٱلْأَخْسَرُونَ (will be) the greatest losers

إِنَّ Indeed ٱلَّذِينَ those who ءَامَنُوا۟ believe وَعَمِلُوا۟ and do ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ good deeds وَأَخْبَتُوٓا۟ and humble themselves إِلَىٰ before رَبِّهِمْ their Lord أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ those أَصْحَـٰبُ (are the) companions ٱلْجَنَّةِ (of) Paradise ۖ   هُمْ they فِيهَا in it خَـٰلِدُونَ (will) abide forever

مَثَلُ (The) example ٱلْفَرِيقَيْنِ (of) the two parties كَٱلْأَعْمَىٰ (is) like the blind وَٱلْأَصَمِّ and the deaf وَٱلْبَصِيرِ and the seer وَٱلسَّمِيعِ and the hearer ۚ   هَلْ Are يَسْتَوِيَانِ they equal مَثَلًا (in) comparison ۚ   أَفَلَا Then, will not تَذَكَّرُونَ you take heed

وَلَقَدْ And verily أَرْسَلْنَا We sent نُوحًا Nuh إِلَىٰ to قَوْمِهِۦٓ his people إِنِّى Indeed, I am لَكُمْ to you نَذِيرٌ a warner مُّبِينٌ clear

أَن That لَّا (do) not تَعْبُدُوٓا۟ worship إِلَّا except ٱللَّهَ Allah ۖ   إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I أَخَافُ [I] fear عَلَيْكُمْ for you عَذَابَ (the) punishment يَوْمٍ (of) a Day أَلِيمٍ painful

فَقَالَ So said ٱلْمَلَأُ the chiefs ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved مِن from قَوْمِهِۦ his people مَا Not نَرَىٰكَ we see you إِلَّا but بَشَرًا a man مِّثْلَنَا like us وَمَا and not نَرَىٰكَ we see you ٱتَّبَعَكَ followed [you] إِلَّا except ٱلَّذِينَ those who هُمْ [they] أَرَاذِلُنَا (are) the lowest of us بَادِىَ immature in opinion ٱلرَّأْىِ immature in opinion وَمَا And not نَرَىٰ we see لَكُمْ in you عَلَيْنَا over us مِن any فَضْلٍۭ merit بَلْ nay نَظُنُّكُمْ we think you كَـٰذِبِينَ (are) liars

قَالَ He said يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people أَرَءَيْتُمْ Do you see إِن if كُنتُ I was عَلَىٰ on بَيِّنَةٍ (the) clear proof مِّن from رَّبِّى my Lord وَءَاتَىٰنِى while He has given me رَحْمَةً mercy مِّنْ from عِندِهِۦ Himself فَعُمِّيَتْ but (it) has been obscured عَلَيْكُمْ from you أَنُلْزِمُكُمُوهَا should We compel you (to accept) it وَأَنتُمْ while you (are) لَهَا averse to it كَـٰرِهُونَ averse to it

وَيَـٰقَوْمِ And O my people لَآ not أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ I ask (of) you عَلَيْهِ for it مَالًا any wealth ۖ   إِنْ Not أَجْرِىَ (is) my reward إِلَّا except عَلَى from ٱللَّهِ Allah ۚ   وَمَآ And not أَنَا۠ I am بِطَارِدِ going to drive away ٱلَّذِينَ those who ءَامَنُوٓا۟ believed ۚ   إِنَّهُم Indeed, they مُّلَـٰقُوا۟ (will) be meeting رَبِّهِمْ their Lord وَلَـٰكِنِّىٓ but I أَرَىٰكُمْ see you قَوْمًا (are) a people تَجْهَلُونَ ignorant

وَيَـٰقَوْمِ And O my people مَن Who يَنصُرُنِى would help me مِنَ against ٱللَّهِ Allah إِن if طَرَدتُّهُمْ I drove them away ۚ   أَفَلَا Then, will not تَذَكَّرُونَ you take heed

وَلَآ And not أَقُولُ I say لَكُمْ to you عِندِى (that) with me خَزَآئِنُ (are the) treasures ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَلَآ and not أَعْلَمُ I know ٱلْغَيْبَ the unseen وَلَآ and not أَقُولُ I say إِنِّى that I am مَلَكٌ an Angel وَلَآ and not أَقُولُ I say لِلَّذِينَ for those whom تَزْدَرِىٓ look down upon أَعْيُنُكُمْ your eyes لَن never يُؤْتِيَهُمُ will Allah give them ٱللَّهُ will Allah give them خَيْرًا any good ۖ   ٱللَّهُ Allah أَعْلَمُ knows best بِمَا what فِىٓ (is) in أَنفُسِهِمْ their souls ۖ   إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I إِذًا then لَّمِنَ (will be) surely of ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoers

قَالُوا۟ They said يَـٰنُوحُ O Nuh قَدْ Indeed جَـٰدَلْتَنَا you disputed with us فَأَكْثَرْتَ and you (have been) frequent جِدَٰلَنَا (in) dispute with us فَأْتِنَا So bring us بِمَا what تَعِدُنَآ you threaten us (with) إِن if كُنتَ you are مِنَ of ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ the truthful

قَالَ He said إِنَّمَا Only يَأْتِيكُم will bring it (on) you بِهِ will bring it (on) you ٱللَّهُ Allah إِن if شَآءَ He wills وَمَآ and not أَنتُم you (are) بِمُعْجِزِينَ one who (can) escape (it)

وَلَا And (will) not يَنفَعُكُمْ benefit you نُصْحِىٓ my advice إِنْ (even) if أَرَدتُّ I wish أَنْ to أَنصَحَ [I] advise لَكُمْ [to] you إِن if كَانَ it was Allah's ٱللَّهُ it was Allah's يُرِيدُ will أَن to يُغْوِيَكُمْ let you go astray ۚ   هُوَ He (is) رَبُّكُمْ your Lord وَإِلَيْهِ and to Him تُرْجَعُونَ you will be returned

أَمْ Or يَقُولُونَ (do) they say ٱفْتَرَىٰهُ He has invented it ۖ   قُلْ Say إِنِ If ٱفْتَرَيْتُهُۥ I have invented it فَعَلَىَّ then on me إِجْرَامِى (is) my crime وَأَنَا۠ but I am بَرِىٓءٌ innocent مِّمَّا of what تُجْرِمُونَ crimes you commit

وَأُوحِىَ And it was revealed إِلَىٰ to نُوحٍ Nuh أَنَّهُۥ That لَن will never يُؤْمِنَ believe مِن from قَوْمِكَ your people إِلَّا except مَن (those) who قَدْ have already ءَامَنَ believed فَلَا So (do) not تَبْتَئِسْ (be) distressed بِمَا by what كَانُوا۟ they have been يَفْعَلُونَ doing

وَٱصْنَعِ And construct ٱلْفُلْكَ the ship بِأَعْيُنِنَا under Our Eyes وَوَحْيِنَا and Our inspiration وَلَا and (do) not تُخَـٰطِبْنِى address Me فِى concerning ٱلَّذِينَ those who ظَلَمُوٓا۟ wronged ۚ   إِنَّهُم indeed, they (are) مُّغْرَقُونَ the ones (to be) drowned

وَيَصْنَعُ And he was constructing ٱلْفُلْكَ the ship وَكُلَّمَا and every time مَرَّ passed عَلَيْهِ by him مَلَأٌ (the) chiefs مِّن of قَوْمِهِۦ his people سَخِرُوا۟ they ridiculed مِنْهُ [of] him ۚ   قَالَ He said إِن If تَسْخَرُوا۟ you ridicule مِنَّا us فَإِنَّا then we نَسْخَرُ can ridicule مِنكُمْ you كَمَا as تَسْخَرُونَ you ridicule

فَسَوْفَ And soon تَعْلَمُونَ you will know مَن (on) whom يَأْتِيهِ will come عَذَابٌ a punishment يُخْزِيهِ (that) will disgrace him وَيَحِلُّ and will descend عَلَيْهِ on him عَذَابٌ a punishment مُّقِيمٌ lasting

حَتَّىٰٓ Till إِذَا when جَآءَ came أَمْرُنَا Our command وَفَارَ and overflowed ٱلتَّنُّورُ the oven قُلْنَا We said ٱحْمِلْ Load فِيهَا in it مِن of كُلٍّ every kind زَوْجَيْنِ a pair ٱثْنَيْنِ two وَأَهْلَكَ and your family إِلَّا except مَن who سَبَقَ has preceded عَلَيْهِ against him ٱلْقَوْلُ the word وَمَنْ and whoever ءَامَنَ believed ۚ   وَمَآ And not ءَامَنَ believed مَعَهُۥٓ with him إِلَّا except قَلِيلٌ a few

وَقَالَ And he said ٱرْكَبُوا۟ Embark فِيهَا in it بِسْمِ in the name ٱللَّهِ of Allah مَجْر۪ىٰهَا (is) its course وَمُرْسَىٰهَآ and its anchorage ۚ   إِنَّ Indeed رَبِّى my Lord لَغَفُورٌ (is) certainly Oft-Forgiving رَّحِيمٌ Most Merciful

وَهِىَ And it تَجْرِى sailed بِهِمْ with them فِى on مَوْجٍ the waves كَٱلْجِبَالِ like mountains وَنَادَىٰ and Nuh called out نُوحٌ and Nuh called out ٱبْنَهُۥ (to) his son وَكَانَ and he was فِى [in] مَعْزِلٍ apart يَـٰبُنَىَّ O my son ٱرْكَب Embark مَّعَنَا with us وَلَا and (do) not تَكُن be مَّعَ with ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ the disbelievers

قَالَ He said سَـَٔاوِىٓ I will betake myself إِلَىٰ to جَبَلٍ a mountain يَعْصِمُنِى (that) will save me مِنَ from ٱلْمَآءِ the water ۚ   قَالَ He said لَا (There is) no عَاصِمَ protector ٱلْيَوْمَ today مِنْ from أَمْرِ the Command of Allah ٱللَّهِ the Command of Allah إِلَّا except مَن (on) whom رَّحِمَ He has mercy ۚ   وَحَالَ And came بَيْنَهُمَا (in) between them ٱلْمَوْجُ the waves فَكَانَ so he was مِنَ among ٱلْمُغْرَقِينَ the drowned

وَقِيلَ And it was said يَـٰٓأَرْضُ O earth ٱبْلَعِى Swallow مَآءَكِ your water وَيَـٰسَمَآءُ and O sky أَقْلِعِى Withhold وَغِيضَ And subsided ٱلْمَآءُ the water وَقُضِىَ and was fulfilled ٱلْأَمْرُ the Command وَٱسْتَوَتْ And it rested عَلَى on ٱلْجُودِىِّ the Judi ۖ   وَقِيلَ And it was said بُعْدًا Away لِّلْقَوْمِ with the people ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoers

وَنَادَىٰ And Nuh called نُوحٌ And Nuh called رَّبَّهُۥ (to) his Lord فَقَالَ and said رَبِّ O my Lord إِنَّ Indeed ٱبْنِى my son مِنْ (is) of أَهْلِى my family وَإِنَّ and indeed وَعْدَكَ Your promise ٱلْحَقُّ (is) true وَأَنتَ and You أَحْكَمُ (are) the Most Just ٱلْحَـٰكِمِينَ (of) the judges

قَالَ He said يَـٰنُوحُ O Nuh إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, he لَيْسَ (is) not مِنْ of أَهْلِكَ your family ۖ   إِنَّهُۥ indeed, [he] عَمَلٌ (his) deed غَيْرُ (is) other than صَـٰلِحٍ righteous ۖ   فَلَا so (do) not تَسْـَٔلْنِ ask Me مَا (about) what لَيْسَ not لَكَ you have بِهِۦ of it عِلْمٌ any knowledge ۖ   إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I أَعِظُكَ admonish you أَن lest تَكُونَ you be مِنَ among ٱلْجَـٰهِلِينَ the ignorant

قَالَ He said رَبِّ O my Lord إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I أَعُوذُ seek refuge بِكَ in You أَنْ that أَسْـَٔلَكَ I (should) ask You مَا what لَيْسَ not لِى I have بِهِۦ of it عِلْمٌ knowledge ۖ   وَإِلَّا And unless تَغْفِرْ You forgive لِى me وَتَرْحَمْنِىٓ and You have mercy on me أَكُن I will be مِّنَ among ٱلْخَـٰسِرِينَ the losers

قِيلَ It was said يَـٰنُوحُ O Nuh ٱهْبِطْ Go down بِسَلَـٰمٍ with peace مِّنَّا from Us وَبَرَكَـٰتٍ and blessings عَلَيْكَ on you وَعَلَىٰٓ and on أُمَمٍ the nations مِّمَّن from those مَّعَكَ with you ۚ   وَأُمَمٌ But (to other) nations سَنُمَتِّعُهُمْ We will grant enjoyment ثُمَّ then يَمَسُّهُم will touch them مِّنَّا from Us عَذَابٌ a punishment أَلِيمٌ painful

تِلْكَ This مِنْ (is) from أَنۢبَآءِ the news ٱلْغَيْبِ (of) the unseen نُوحِيهَآ (which) We reveal إِلَيْكَ to you ۖ   مَا Not كُنتَ you were تَعْلَمُهَآ knowing it أَنتَ you وَلَا and not قَوْمُكَ your people مِن from قَبْلِ before هَـٰذَا this ۖ   فَٱصْبِرْ So be patient ۖ   إِنَّ indeed ٱلْعَـٰقِبَةَ the end لِلْمُتَّقِينَ (is) for the God fearing

وَإِلَىٰ And to عَادٍ Aad أَخَاهُمْ (We sent) their brother هُودًا Hud ۚ   قَالَ He said يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people ٱعْبُدُوا۟ Worship ٱللَّهَ Allah مَا not لَكُم (is) for you مِّنْ any إِلَـٰهٍ god غَيْرُهُۥٓ other than Him ۖ   إِنْ Not أَنتُمْ you إِلَّا (are) but مُفْتَرُونَ inventors

يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people لَآ Not أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ I ask you عَلَيْهِ for it أَجْرًا any reward ۖ   إِنْ Not أَجْرِىَ (is) my reward إِلَّا except عَلَى from ٱلَّذِى the One Who فَطَرَنِىٓ created me ۚ   أَفَلَا Then will not تَعْقِلُونَ you use reason

وَيَـٰقَوْمِ And O my people ٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ Ask forgiveness رَبَّكُمْ (of) your Lord ثُمَّ then تُوبُوٓا۟ turn in repentance إِلَيْهِ to Him يُرْسِلِ He will send ٱلسَّمَآءَ (from) the sky (rain) عَلَيْكُم upon you مِّدْرَارًا (in) abundance وَيَزِدْكُمْ and increase you قُوَّةً (in) strength إِلَىٰ (added) to قُوَّتِكُمْ your strength وَلَا And (do) not تَتَوَلَّوْا۟ turn away مُجْرِمِينَ (as) criminals

قَالُوا۟ They said يَـٰهُودُ O Hud مَا You have not brought us جِئْتَنَا You have not brought us بِبَيِّنَةٍ clear proofs وَمَا and not نَحْنُ we بِتَارِكِىٓ (will) leave ءَالِهَتِنَا our gods عَن on قَوْلِكَ your saying وَمَا and not نَحْنُ we (are) لَكَ in you بِمُؤْمِنِينَ believers

إِن Not نَّقُولُ we say إِلَّا except (that) ٱعْتَرَىٰكَ have seized you بَعْضُ some ءَالِهَتِنَا (of) our gods بِسُوٓءٍ with evil ۗ   قَالَ He said إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I أُشْهِدُ [I] call Allah to witness ٱللَّهَ [I] call Allah to witness وَٱشْهَدُوٓا۟ and (you) bear witness أَنِّى that I am بَرِىٓءٌ innocent مِّمَّا of what تُشْرِكُونَ you associate

مِن Other than Him دُونِهِۦ Other than Him ۖ   فَكِيدُونِى So plot against me جَمِيعًا all together ثُمَّ then لَا (do) not تُنظِرُونِ give me respite

إِنِّى Indeed, I تَوَكَّلْتُ [I] put my trust عَلَى upon ٱللَّهِ Allah رَبِّى my Lord وَرَبِّكُم and your Lord ۚ   مَّا (There is) not مِن of a moving creature دَآبَّةٍ of a moving creature إِلَّا but هُوَ He ءَاخِذٌۢ has grasp بِنَاصِيَتِهَآ of its forelock ۚ   إِنَّ Indeed رَبِّى my Lord عَلَىٰ (is) on صِرَٰطٍ a path مُّسْتَقِيمٍ straight

فَإِن So if تَوَلَّوْا۟ you turn away فَقَدْ then verily أَبْلَغْتُكُم I have conveyed to you مَّآ what أُرْسِلْتُ I was sent بِهِۦٓ with [it] إِلَيْكُمْ to you ۚ   وَيَسْتَخْلِفُ And my Lord will give succession رَبِّى And my Lord will give succession قَوْمًا (to) a people غَيْرَكُمْ other than you وَلَا and not تَضُرُّونَهُۥ you will harm Him شَيْـًٔا (in) anything ۚ   إِنَّ Indeed رَبِّى my Lord عَلَىٰ (is) on كُلِّ all شَىْءٍ things حَفِيظٌ a Guardian

وَلَمَّا And when جَآءَ came أَمْرُنَا Our command نَجَّيْنَا We saved هُودًا Hud وَٱلَّذِينَ and those who ءَامَنُوا۟ believed مَعَهُۥ with him بِرَحْمَةٍ by a Mercy مِّنَّا from Us وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُم and We saved them مِّنْ from عَذَابٍ a punishment غَلِيظٍ severe

وَتِلْكَ And this عَادٌ (was) Aad ۖ   جَحَدُوا۟ they rejected بِـَٔايَـٰتِ (the) Signs رَبِّهِمْ (of) their Lord وَعَصَوْا۟ and disobeyed رُسُلَهُۥ His Messengers وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ and followed أَمْرَ (the) command كُلِّ (of) every جَبَّارٍ tyrant عَنِيدٍ obstinate

وَأُتْبِعُوا۟ And they were followed فِى in هَـٰذِهِ this ٱلدُّنْيَا world لَعْنَةً (with) a curse وَيَوْمَ and (on the) Day ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ (of) the Resurrection ۗ   أَلَآ No doubt إِنَّ Indeed عَادًا Aad كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved رَبَّهُمْ their Lord ۗ   أَلَا So بُعْدًا away لِّعَادٍ with Aad قَوْمِ (the) people هُودٍ (of) Hud

وَإِلَىٰ And to ثَمُودَ Thamud أَخَاهُمْ (We sent) their brother صَـٰلِحًا Salih ۚ   قَالَ He said يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people ٱعْبُدُوا۟ Worship ٱللَّهَ Allah مَا not لَكُم you have مِّنْ any إِلَـٰهٍ god غَيْرُهُۥ other than Him ۖ   هُوَ He أَنشَأَكُم produced you مِّنَ from ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth وَٱسْتَعْمَرَكُمْ and settled you فِيهَا in it فَٱسْتَغْفِرُوهُ So ask forgiveness of Him ثُمَّ then تُوبُوٓا۟ turn in repentance إِلَيْهِ to Him ۚ   إِنَّ Indeed رَبِّى my Lord قَرِيبٌ (is) near مُّجِيبٌ All-Responsive

قَالُوا۟ They said يَـٰصَـٰلِحُ O Salih قَدْ Verily كُنتَ you were فِينَا among us مَرْجُوًّا the one in whom hope was placed قَبْلَ before هَـٰذَآ this ۖ   أَتَنْهَىٰنَآ Do you forbid us أَن that نَّعْبُدَ we worship مَا what يَعْبُدُ our forefathers worshipped ءَابَآؤُنَا our forefathers worshipped وَإِنَّنَا And indeed we لَفِى surely (are) in شَكٍّ doubt مِّمَّا about what تَدْعُونَآ you call us إِلَيْهِ to it مُرِيبٍ suspicious

قَالَ He said يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people أَرَءَيْتُمْ Do you see إِن if كُنتُ I am عَلَىٰ on بَيِّنَةٍ a clear proof مِّن from رَّبِّى my Lord وَءَاتَىٰنِى and He has given me مِنْهُ from Him رَحْمَةً a Mercy فَمَن then who يَنصُرُنِى (can) help me مِنَ against ٱللَّهِ Allah إِنْ if عَصَيْتُهُۥ I (were to) disobey Him ۖ   فَمَا So not تَزِيدُونَنِى you would increase me غَيْرَ but تَخْسِيرٍ (in) loss

وَيَـٰقَوْمِ And O my people هَـٰذِهِۦ This نَاقَةُ she-camel ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah لَكُمْ (is) for you ءَايَةً a Sign فَذَرُوهَا so leave her تَأْكُلْ to eat فِىٓ in أَرْضِ the earth ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَلَا and (do) not تَمَسُّوهَا touch her بِسُوٓءٍ with harm فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ lest will seize you عَذَابٌ a punishment قَرِيبٌ impending

فَعَقَرُوهَا But they hamstrung her فَقَالَ So he said تَمَتَّعُوا۟ Enjoy (yourselves) فِى in دَارِكُمْ your home(s) ثَلَـٰثَةَ (for) three أَيَّامٍ days ۖ   ذَٰلِكَ That وَعْدٌ (is) a promise غَيْرُ not مَكْذُوبٍ (to) be belied

فَلَمَّا So when جَآءَ came أَمْرُنَا Our command نَجَّيْنَا We saved صَـٰلِحًا Salih وَٱلَّذِينَ and those who ءَامَنُوا۟ believed مَعَهُۥ with him بِرَحْمَةٍ by a Mercy مِّنَّا from Us وَمِنْ and from خِزْىِ (the) disgrace يَوْمِئِذٍ (of) that Day ۗ   إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord هُوَ He ٱلْقَوِىُّ (is) All-Strong ٱلْعَزِيزُ All-Mighty

وَأَخَذَ And seized ٱلَّذِينَ those who ظَلَمُوا۟ wronged ٱلصَّيْحَةُ the thunderous blast فَأَصْبَحُوا۟ then they became فِى in دِيَـٰرِهِمْ their homes جَـٰثِمِينَ fallen prone

كَأَن As if لَّمْ not يَغْنَوْا۟ they (had) prospered فِيهَآ therein ۗ   أَلَآ No doubt إِنَّ indeed ثَمُودَا۟ Thamud كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved رَبَّهُمْ (in) their Lord ۗ   أَلَا so بُعْدًا away لِّثَمُودَ with Thamud

وَلَقَدْ And certainly جَآءَتْ came رُسُلُنَآ Our messengers إِبْرَٰهِيمَ (to) Ibrahim بِٱلْبُشْرَىٰ with glad tidings قَالُوا۟ they said سَلَـٰمًا Peace ۖ   قَالَ He said سَلَـٰمٌ Peace ۖ   فَمَا and not he delayed لَبِثَ and not he delayed أَن to جَآءَ bring بِعِجْلٍ a calf حَنِيذٍ roasted

فَلَمَّا But when رَءَآ he saw أَيْدِيَهُمْ their hands لَا not تَصِلُ reaching إِلَيْهِ to it نَكِرَهُمْ he felt unfamiliar of them وَأَوْجَسَ and felt apprehension مِنْهُمْ from them خِيفَةً [a fear] ۚ   قَالُوا۟ They said لَا (Do) not تَخَفْ fear إِنَّآ Indeed, we أُرْسِلْنَآ [we] have been sent إِلَىٰ to قَوْمِ (the) people لُوطٍ (of) Lut

وَٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ And his wife قَآئِمَةٌ (was) standing فَضَحِكَتْ and she laughed فَبَشَّرْنَـٰهَا Then We gave her glad tidings بِإِسْحَـٰقَ of Isaac وَمِن and after وَرَآءِ and after إِسْحَـٰقَ Isaac يَعْقُوبَ (of) Yaqub

قَالَتْ She said يَـٰوَيْلَتَىٰٓ Woe to me ءَأَلِدُ Shall I bear a child وَأَنَا۠ while I am عَجُوزٌ an old woman وَهَـٰذَا and this بَعْلِى my husband شَيْخًا (is) an old man ۖ   إِنَّ Indeed هَـٰذَا this لَشَىْءٌ (is) surely a thing عَجِيبٌ amazing

قَالُوٓا۟ They said أَتَعْجَبِينَ Are you amazed مِنْ at أَمْرِ (the) decree of Allah ٱللَّهِ (the) decree of Allah ۖ   رَحْمَتُ The Mercy of Allah ٱللَّهِ The Mercy of Allah وَبَرَكَـٰتُهُۥ and His blessings عَلَيْكُمْ (be) upon you أَهْلَ people ٱلْبَيْتِ (of) the house ۚ   إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, He حَمِيدٌ (is) All-Praiseworthy مَّجِيدٌ All-Glorious

فَلَمَّا And when ذَهَبَ (had) gone away عَنْ from إِبْرَٰهِيمَ Ibrahim ٱلرَّوْعُ the fright وَجَآءَتْهُ and had reached him ٱلْبُشْرَىٰ the glad tidings يُجَـٰدِلُنَا he argued with Us فِى concerning قَوْمِ the people لُوطٍ of Lut

إِنَّ Indeed إِبْرَٰهِيمَ Ibrahim لَحَلِيمٌ (was) certainly forbearing أَوَّٰهٌ imploring مُّنِيبٌ and oft-returning

يَـٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ O Ibrahim أَعْرِضْ Turn away عَنْ from هَـٰذَآ this ۖ   إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, it قَدْ certainly جَآءَ has come أَمْرُ (the) Command رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord ۖ   وَإِنَّهُمْ and indeed, [they] ءَاتِيهِمْ (will) come (for) them عَذَابٌ a punishment غَيْرُ (which) cannot مَرْدُودٍ (be) repelled

وَلَمَّا And when جَآءَتْ came رُسُلُنَا Our messengers لُوطًا (to) Lut سِىٓءَ he was distressed بِهِمْ for them وَضَاقَ and felt straitened بِهِمْ for them ذَرْعًا (and) uneasy وَقَالَ and said هَـٰذَا This يَوْمٌ (is) a day عَصِيبٌ distressful

وَجَآءَهُۥ And came (to) him قَوْمُهُۥ his people يُهْرَعُونَ rushing إِلَيْهِ to him وَمِن and before قَبْلُ and before كَانُوا۟ they (had) been يَعْمَلُونَ doing ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتِ the evil deeds ۚ   قَالَ He said يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ These بَنَاتِى (are) my daughters هُنَّ they أَطْهَرُ (are) purer لَكُمْ for you ۖ   فَٱتَّقُوا۟ So fear ٱللَّهَ Allah وَلَا and (do) not تُخْزُونِ disgrace me فِى concerning ضَيْفِىٓ my guests ۖ   أَلَيْسَ Is (there) not مِنكُمْ among you رَجُلٌ a man رَّشِيدٌ right-minded

قَالُوا۟ They said لَقَدْ Verily عَلِمْتَ you know مَا (that) not لَنَا we have فِى concerning بَنَاتِكَ your daughters مِنْ any حَقٍّ right وَإِنَّكَ And indeed, you لَتَعْلَمُ surely know مَا what نُرِيدُ we want

قَالَ He said لَوْ If أَنَّ that لِى I had بِكُمْ over you قُوَّةً power أَوْ or ءَاوِىٓ I could take refuge إِلَىٰ in رُكْنٍ a support شَدِيدٍ strong

قَالُوا۟ They said يَـٰلُوطُ O Lut إِنَّا Indeed, we رُسُلُ (are) messengers رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord لَن never يَصِلُوٓا۟ they will reach إِلَيْكَ you ۖ   فَأَسْرِ So travel بِأَهْلِكَ with your family بِقِطْعٍ in a part مِّنَ of ٱلَّيْلِ the night وَلَا and (let) not يَلْتَفِتْ look back مِنكُمْ anyone of you أَحَدٌ anyone of you إِلَّا except ٱمْرَأَتَكَ your wife ۖ   إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, it مُصِيبُهَا will strike her مَآ what أَصَابَهُمْ will strike them ۚ   إِنَّ Indeed مَوْعِدَهُمُ their appointed time ٱلصُّبْحُ (is) morning ۚ   أَلَيْسَ Is not ٱلصُّبْحُ the morning بِقَرِيبٍ near
