Surah 21
Al-Anbya · Meccan · 112 ayat
اقتَرَبَ لِلنَّاسِ حِسَابُهُم وَهُم فِی غَفلَۃ مُّعرِضُونَ
Iqtaraba lilnnasi hisabuhum wahum fee ghaflatin muAAridoona
[The time of] their account has approached for the people, while they are in heedlessness turning away
مَا یَاتِیهِم مِّن ذِکر مِّن رَّبِّهِم مُّحدَثٍ اِلَّا استَمَعُوهُ وَهُم یَلعَبُونَ
Ma yateehim min thikrin min rabbihim muhdathin illa istamaAAoohu wahum yalAAaboona
No mention comes to them anew from their Lord except that they listen to it while they are at play
لَاهِیَۃ قُلُوبُهُم وَاَسَرُّواْ النَّجوَی الَّذِینَ ظَلَمُواْ هَل هَذَآ اِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثلُکُم اَفَتَاتُونَ السِّحرَ وَاَنتُم تُبصِرُونَ
Lahiyatan quloobuhum waasarroo alnnajwa allatheena thalamoo hal hatha illa basharun mithlukum afatatoona alssihra waantum tubsiroona
With their hearts distracted. And those who do wrong conceal their private conversation, [saying], "Is this [Prophet] except a human being like you? So would you approach magic while you are aware [of it]
قَالَ رَبِّی یَعلَمُ القَولَ فِی السَّمَآءِ وَالاَرضِ وَهُوَ السَّمِیعُ العَلِیمُ
Qala rabbee yaAAlamu alqawla fee alssamai waalardi wahuwa alssameeAAu alAAaleemu
The Prophet said, "My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing
بَل قَالُوٓاْ اَضغَثُ اَحلَمِ بَلِ افتَرَیهُ بَل هُوَ شَاعِرٞ فَلیَاتِنَا بَِٔایَۃ کَمَآ اُرسِلَ الاَوَّلُونَ
Bal qaloo adghathu ahlamin bali iftarahu bal huwa shaAAirun falyatina biayatin kama orsila alawwaloona
But they say, "[The revelation is but] a mixture of false dreams; rather, he has invented it; rather, he is a poet. So let him bring us a sign just as the previous [messengers] were sent [with miracles]
مَآ ءَامَنَت قَبلَهُم مِّن قَریَۃٍ اَهلَکنَهَآ اَفَهُم یُؤمِنُونَ
Ma amanat qablahum min qaryatin ahlaknaha afahum yuminoona
Not a [single] city which We destroyed believed before them, so will they believe
وَمَآ اَرسَلنَا قَبلَکَ اِلَّا رِجَالا نُّوحِیٓ اِلَیهِم فَسَٔلُوٓاْ اَهلَ الذِّکرِ اِن کُنتُم لَا تَعلَمُونَ
Wama arsalna qablaka illa rijalan noohee ilayhim faisaloo ahla alththikri in kuntum la taAAlamoona
And We sent not before you, [O Muhammad], except men to whom We revealed [the message], so ask the people of the message if you do not know
وَمَا جَعَلنَهُم جَسَدا لَّا یَاکُلُونَ الطَّعَامَ وَمَا کَانُواْ خَلِدِینَ
Wama jaAAalnahum jasadan la yakuloona alttaAAama wama kanoo khalideena
And We did not make the prophets forms not eating food, nor were they immortal [on earth]
ثُمَّ صَدَقنَهُمُ الوَعدَ فَاَنجَینَهُم وَمَن نَّشَآءُ وَاَهلَکنَا المُسرِفِینَ
Thumma sadaqnahumu alwaAAda faanjaynahum waman nashao waahlakna almusrifeena
Then We fulfilled for them the promise, and We saved them and whom We willed and destroyed the transgressors
لَقَد اَنزَلنَآ اِلَیکُم کِتَبا فِیهِ ذِکرُکُم اَفَلَا تَعقِلُونَ
Laqad anzalna ilaykum kitaban feehi thikrukum afala taAAqiloona
We have certainly sent down to you a Book in which is your mention. Then will you not reason
وَکَم قَصَمنَا مِن قَریَۃ کَانَت ظَالِمَۃ وَاَنشَانَا بَعدَهَا قَومًا ءَاخَرِینَ
Wakam qasamna min qaryatin kanat thalimatan waanshana baAAdaha qawman akhareena
And how many a city which was unjust have We shattered and produced after it another people
فَلَمَّآ اَحَسُّواْ بَاسَنَآ اِذَا هُم مِّنهَا یَرکُضُونَ
Falamma ahassoo basana itha hum minha yarkudoona
And when its inhabitants perceived Our punishment, at once they fled from it
لَا تَرکُضُواْ وَارجِعُوٓاْ اِلَی مَآ اُترِفتُم فِیهِ وَمَسَکِنِکُم لَعَلَّکُم تُسَٔلُونَ
La tarkudoo wairjiAAoo ila ma otriftum feehi wamasakinikum laAAallakum tusaloona
[Some angels said], "Do not flee but return to where you were given luxury and to your homes - perhaps you will be questioned
قَالُواْ یَوَیلَنَآ اِنَّا کُنَّا ظَلِمِینَ
Qaloo ya waylana inna kunna thalimeena
They said, "O woe to us! Indeed, we were wrongdoers
فَمَا زَالَت تِّلکَ دَعوَیهُم حَتَّی جَعَلنَهُم حَصِیدًا خَمِدِینَ
Fama zalat tilka daAAwahum hatta jaAAalnahum haseedan khamideena
And that declaration of theirs did not cease until We made them [as] a harvest [mowed down], extinguished [like a fire]
وَمَا خَلَقنَا السَّمَآءَ وَالاَرضَ وَمَا بَینَهُمَا لَعِبِینَ
Wama khalaqna alssamaa waalarda wama baynahuma laAAibeena
And We did not create the heaven and earth and that between them in play
لَو اَرَدنَآ اَن نَّتَّخِذَ لَهوا لَّاتَّخَذنَهُ مِن لَّدُنَّآ اِن کُنَّا فَعِلِینَ
Law aradna an nattakhitha lahwan laittakhathnahu min ladunna in kunna faAAileena
Had We intended to take a diversion, We could have taken it from [what is] with Us - if [indeed] We were to do so
بَل نَقذِفُ بِالحَقِّ عَلَی البَطِلِ فَیَدمَغُهُ فَاِذَا هُوَ زَاهِقٞ وَلَکُمُ الوَیلُ مِمَّا تَصِفُونَ
Bal naqthifu bialhaqqi AAala albatili fayadmaghuhu faitha huwa zahiqun walakumu alwaylu mimma tasifoona
Rather, We dash the truth upon falsehood, and it destroys it, and thereupon it departs. And for you is destruction from that which you describe
وَلَهُ مَن فِی السَّمَوَتِ وَالاَرضِ وَمَن عِندَهُ لَا یَستَکبِرُونَ عَن عِبَادَتِهِ وَلَا یَستَحسِرُونَ
Walahu man fee alssamawati waalardi waman AAindahu la yastakbiroona AAan AAibadatihi wala yastahsiroona
To Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those near Him are not prevented by arrogance from His worship, nor do they tire
یُسَبِّحُونَ الَّیلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لَا یَفتُرُونَ
Yusabbihoona allayla waalnnahara la yafturoona
They exalt [Him] night and day [and] do not slacken
اَمِ اتَّخَذُوٓاْ ءَالِهَۃ مِّنَ الاَرضِ هُم یُنشِرُونَ
Ami ittakhathoo alihatan mina alardi hum yunshiroona
Or have men taken for themselves gods from the earth who resurrect [the dead]
لَو کَانَ فِیهِمَآ ءَالِهَۃٌ اِلَّا اللَّهُ لَفَسَدَتَا فَسُبحَنَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ العَرشِ عَمَّا یَصِفُونَ
Law kana feehima alihatun illa Allahu lafasadata fasubhana Allahi rabbi alAAarshi AAamma yasifoona
Had there been within the heavens and earth gods besides Allah, they both would have been ruined. So exalted is Allah, Lord of the Throne, above what they describe
لَا یُسَٔلُ عَمَّا یَفعَلُ وَهُم یُسَٔلُونَ
La yusalu AAamma yafAAalu wahum yusaloona
He is not questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned
اَمِ اتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِهِٓ ءَالِهَۃ قُل هَاتُواْ بُرهَنَکُم هَذَا ذِکرُ مَن مَّعِیَ وَذِکرُ مَن قَبلِی بَل اَکثَرُهُم لَا یَعلَمُونَ الحَقَّ فَهُم مُّعرِضُونَ
Ami ittakhathoo min doonihi alihatan qul hatoo burhanakum hatha thikru man maAAiya wathikru man qablee bal aktharuhum la yaAAlamoona alhaqqa fahum muAAridoona
Or have they taken gods besides Him? Say, [O Muhammad], "Produce your proof. This [Qur'an] is the message for those with me and the message of those before me." But most of them do not know the truth, so they are turning away
وَمَآ اَرسَلنَا مِن قَبلِکَ مِن رَّسُولٍ اِلَّا نُوحِیٓ اِلَیهِ اَنَّهُ لَآ اِلَهَ اِلَّآ اَنَا فَاعبُدُونِ
Wama arsalna min qablika min rasoolin illa noohee ilayhi annahu la ilaha illa ana faoAAbudooni
And We sent not before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, "There is no deity except Me, so worship Me
وَقَالُواْ اتَّخَذَ الرَّحمَنُ وَلَدا سُبحَنَهُ بَل عِبَادٞ مُّکرَمُونَ
Waqaloo ittakhatha alrrahmanu waladan subhanahu bal AAibadun mukramoona
And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken a son." Exalted is He! Rather, they are [but] honored servants
لَا یَسبِقُونَهُ بِالقَولِ وَهُم بِاَمرِهِ یَعمَلُونَ
La yasbiqoonahu bialqawli wahum biamrihi yaAAmaloona
They cannot precede Him in word, and they act by His command
یَعلَمُ مَا بَینَ اَیدِیهِم وَمَا خَلفَهُم وَلَا یَشفَعُونَ اِلَّا لِمَنِ ارتَضَی وَهُم مِّن خَشیَتِهِ مُشفِقُونَ
YaAAlamu ma bayna aydeehim wama khalfahum wala yashfaAAoona illa limani irtada wahum min khashyatihi mushfiqoona
He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they cannot intercede except on behalf of one whom He approves. And they, from fear of Him, are apprehensive
وَمَن یَقُل مِنهُم اِنِّیٓ اِلَهٞ مِّن دُونِهِ فَذَلِکَ نَجزِیهِ جَهَنَّمَ کَذَلِکَ نَجزِی الظَّلِمِینَ
Waman yaqul minhum innee ilahun min doonihi fathalika najzeehi jahannama kathalika najzee alththalimeena
And whoever of them should say, "Indeed, I am a god besides Him"- that one We would recompense with Hell. Thus do We recompense the wrongdoers
اَوَلَم یَرَ الَّذِینَ کَفَرُوٓاْ اَنَّ السَّمَوَتِ وَالاَرضَ کَانَتَا رَتقا فَفَتَقنَهُمَا وَجَعَلنَا مِنَ المَآءِ کُلَّ شَیءٍ حَیٍّ اَفَلَا یُؤمِنُونَ
Awalam yara allatheena kafaroo anna alssamawati waalarda kanata ratqan fafataqnahuma wajaAAalna mina almai kulla shayin hayyin afala yuminoona
Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe
وَجَعَلنَا فِی الاَرضِ رَوَسِیَ اَن تَمِیدَ بِهِم وَجَعَلنَا فِیهَا فِجَاجا سُبُلا لَّعَلَّهُم یَهتَدُونَ
WajaAAalna fee alardi rawasiya an tameeda bihim wajaAAalna feeha fijajan subulan laAAallahum yahtadoona
And We placed within the earth firmly set mountains, lest it should shift with them, and We made therein [mountain] passes [as] roads that they might be guided
وَجَعَلنَا السَّمَآءَ سَقفا مَّحفُوظا وَهُم عَن ءَایَتِهَا مُعرِضُونَ
WajaAAalna alssamaa saqfan mahfoothan wahum AAan ayatiha muAAridoona
And We made the sky a protected ceiling, but they, from its signs, are turning away
وَهُوَ الَّذِی خَلَقَ الَّیلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَالشَّمسَ وَالقَمَرَ کُلّٞ فِی فَلَک یَسبَحُونَ
Wahuwa allathee khalaqa allayla waalnnahara waalshshamsa waalqamara kullun fee falakin yasbahoona
And it is He who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon; all [heavenly bodies] in an orbit are swimming
وَمَا جَعَلنَا لِبَشَر مِّن قَبلِکَ الخُلدَ اَفَاِیْن مِّتَّ فَهُمُ الخَلِدُونَ
Wama jaAAalna libasharin min qablika alkhulda afain mitta fahumu alkhalidoona
And We did not grant to any man before you eternity [on earth]; so if you die - would they be eternal
کُلُّ نَفس ذَآئِقَۃُ المَوتِ وَنَبلُوکُم بِالشَّرِّ وَالخَیرِ فِتنَۃ وَاِلَینَا تُرجَعُونَ
Kullu nafsin thaiqatu almawti wanablookum bialshsharri waalkhayri fitnatan wailayna turjaAAoona
Every soul will taste death. And We test you with evil and with good as trial; and to Us you will be returned
وَاِذَا رَءَاکَ الَّذِینَ کَفَرُوٓاْ اِن یَتَّخِذُونَکَ اِلَّا هُزُوًا اَهَذَا الَّذِی یَذکُرُ ءَالِهَتَکُم وَهُم بِذِکرِ الرَّحمَنِ هُم کَفِرُونَ
Waitha raaka allatheena kafaroo in yattakhithoonaka illa huzuwan ahatha allathee yathkuru alihatakum wahum bithikri alrrahmani hum kafiroona
And when those who disbelieve see you, [O Muhammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one who insults your gods?" And they are, at the mention of the Most Merciful, disbelievers
خُلِقَ الاِنسَنُ مِن عَجَل سَاُوْرِیکُم ءَایَتِی فَلَا تَستَعجِلُونِ
Khuliqa alinsanu min AAajalin saoreekum ayatee fala tastaAAjiloona
Man was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not impatiently urge Me
وَیَقُولُونَ مَتَی هَذَا الوَعدُ اِن کُنتُم صَدِقِینَ
Wayaqooloona mata hatha alwaAAdu in kuntum sadiqeena
And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful
لَو یَعلَمُ الَّذِینَ کَفَرُواْ حِینَ لَا یَکُفُّونَ عَن وُجُوهِهِمُ النَّارَ وَلَا عَن ظُهُورِهِم وَلَا هُم یُنصَرُونَ
Law yaAAlamu allatheena kafaroo heena la yakuffoona AAan wujoohihimu alnnara wala AAan thuhoorihim wala hum yunsaroona
If those who disbelieved but knew the time when they will not avert the Fire from their faces or from their backs and they will not be aided
بَل تَاتِیهِم بَغتَۃ فَتَبهَتُهُم فَلَا یَستَطِیعُونَ رَدَّهَا وَلَا هُم یُنظَرُونَ
Bal tateehim baghtatan fatabhatuhum fala yastateeAAoona raddaha wala hum yuntharoona
Rather, it will come to them unexpectedly and bewilder them, and they will not be able to repel it, nor will they be reprieved
وَلَقَدِ استُهزِئَ بِرُسُل مِّن قَبلِکَ فَحَاقَ بِالَّذِینَ سَخِرُواْ مِنهُم مَّا کَانُواْ بِهِ یَستَهزِءُونَ
Walaqadi istuhzia birusulin min qablika fahaqa biallatheena sakhiroo minhum ma kanoo bihi yastahzioona
And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by what they used to ridicule
قُل مَن یَکلَؤُکُم بِالَّیلِ وَالنَّهَارِ مِنَ الرَّحمَنِ بَل هُم عَن ذِکرِ رَبِّهِم مُّعرِضُونَ
Qul man yaklaokum biallayli waalnnahari mina alrrahmani bal hum AAan thikri rabbihim muAAridoona
Say, "Who can protect you at night or by day from the Most Merciful?" But they are, from the remembrance of their Lord, turning away
اَم لَهُم ءَالِهَۃٞ تَمنَعُهُم مِّن دُونِنَا لَا یَستَطِیعُونَ نَصرَ اَنفُسِهِم وَلَا هُم مِّنَّا یُصحَبُونَ
Am lahum alihatun tamnaAAuhum min doonina la yastateeAAoona nasra anfusihim wala hum minna yushaboona
Or do they have gods to defend them other than Us? They are unable [even] to help themselves, nor can they be protected from Us
بَل مَتَّعنَا هَٓؤُلَآءِ وَءَابَآءَهُم حَتَّی طَالَ عَلَیهِمُ العُمُرُ اَفَلَا یَرَونَ اَنَّا نَاتِی الاَرضَ نَنقُصُهَا مِن اَطرَافِهَآ اَفَهُمُ الغَلِبُونَ
Bal mattaAAna haolai waabaahum hatta tala AAalayhimu alAAumuru afala yarawna anna natee alarda nanqusuha min atrafiha afahumu alghaliboona
But, [on the contrary], We have provided good things for these [disbelievers] and their fathers until life was prolonged for them. Then do they not see that We set upon the land, reducing it from its borders? So it is they who will overcome
قُل اِنَّمَآ اُنذِرُکُم بِالوَحیِ وَلَا یَسمَعُ الصُّمُّ الدُّعَآءَ اِذَا مَا یُنذَرُونَ
Qul innama onthirukum bialwahyi wala yasmaAAu alssummu aldduAAaa itha ma yuntharoona
Say, "I only warn you by revelation." But the deaf do not hear the call when they are warned
وَلَئِن مَّسَّتهُم نَفحَۃٞ مِّن عَذَابِ رَبِّکَ لَیَقُولُنَّ یَوَیلَنَآ اِنَّا کُنَّا ظَلِمِینَ
Walain massathum nafhatun min AAathabi rabbika layaqoolunna ya waylana inna kunna thalimeena
And if [as much as] a whiff of the punishment of your Lord should touch them, they would surely say, "O woe to us! Indeed, we have been wrongdoers
وَنَضَعُ المَوَزِینَ القِسطَ لِیَومِ القِیَمَۃِ فَلَا تُظلَمُ نَفسٞ شَیٔا وَاِن کَانَ مِثقَالَ حَبَّۃ مِّن خَردَلٍ اَتَینَا بِهَا وَکَفَی بِنَا حَسِبِینَ
WanadaAAu almawazeena alqista liyawmi alqiyamati fala tuthlamu nafsun shayan wain kana mithqala habbatin min khardalin atayna biha wakafa bina hasibeena
And We place the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so no soul will be treated unjustly at all. And if there is [even] the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth. And sufficient are We as accountant
وَلَقَد ءَاتَینَا مُوسَی وَهَرُونَ الفُرقَانَ وَضِیَآء وَذِکرا لِّلمُتَّقِینَ
Walaqad atayna moosa waharoona alfurqana wadiyaan wathikran lilmuttaqeena
And We had already given Moses and Aaron the criterion and a light and a reminder for the righteous
الَّذِینَ یَخشَونَ رَبَّهُم بِالغَیبِ وَهُم مِّنَ السَّاعَۃِ مُشفِقُونَ
Allatheena yakhshawna rabbahum bialghaybi wahum mina alssaAAati mushfiqoona
Who fear their Lord unseen, while they are of the Hour apprehensive
وَهَذَا ذِکرٞ مُّبَارَکٌ اَنزَلنَهُ اَفَاَنتُم لَهُ مُنکِرُونَ
Wahatha thikrun mubarakun anzalnahu afaantum lahu munkiroona
And this [Qur'an] is a blessed message which We have sent down. Then are you with it unacquainted
وَلَقَد ءَاتَینَآ اِبرَهِیمَ رُشدَهُ مِن قَبلُ وَکُنَّا بِهِ عَلِمِینَ
Walaqad atayna ibraheema rushdahu min qablu wakunna bihi AAalimeena
And We had certainly given Abraham his sound judgement before, and We were of him well-Knowing
اِذ قَالَ لِاَبِیهِ وَقَومِهِ مَا هَذِهِ التَّمَاثِیلُ الَّتِیٓ اَنتُم لَهَا عَکِفُونَ
Ith qala liabeehi waqawmihi ma hathihi alttamatheelu allatee antum laha AAakifoona
When he said to his father and his people, "What are these statues to which you are devoted
قَالُواْ وَجَدنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا لَهَا عَبِدِینَ
Qaloo wajadna abaana laha AAabideena
They said, "We found our fathers worshippers of them
قَالَ لَقَد کُنتُم اَنتُم وَءَابَآؤُکُم فِی ضَلَل مُّبِین
Qala laqad kuntum antum waabaokum fee dalalin mubeenin
He said, "You were certainly, you and your fathers, in manifest error
قَالُوٓاْ اَجِئتَنَا بِالحَقِّ اَم اَنتَ مِنَ اللَّعِبِینَ
Qaloo ajitana bialhaqqi am anta mina allaAAibeena
They said, "Have you come to us with truth, or are you of those who jest
قَالَ بَل رَّبُّکُم رَبُّ السَّمَوَتِ وَالاَرضِ الَّذِی فَطَرَهُنَّ وَاَنَا عَلَی ذَلِکُم مِّنَ الشَّهِدِینَ
Qala bal rabbukum rabbu alssamawati waalardi allathee fatarahunna waana AAala thalikum mina alshshahideena
He said, "[No], rather, your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth who created them, and I, to that, am of those who testify
وَتَاللَّهِ لَاَکِیدَنَّ اَصنَمَکُم بَعدَ اَن تُوَلُّواْ مُدبِرِینَ
WataAllahi laakeedanna asnamakum baAAda an tuwalloo mudbireena
And [I swear] by Allah, I will surely plan against your idols after you have turned and gone away
فَجَعَلَهُم جُذَذًا اِلَّا کَبِیرا لَّهُم لَعَلَّهُم اِلَیهِ یَرجِعُونَ
FajaAAalahum juthathan illa kabeeran lahum laAAallahum ilayhi yarjiAAoona
So he made them into fragments, except a large one among them, that they might return to it [and question]
قَالُواْ مَن فَعَلَ هَذَا بَِٔالِهَتِنَآ اِنَّهُ لَمِنَ الظَّلِمِینَ
Qaloo man faAAala hatha bialihatina innahu lamina alththalimeena
They said, "Who has done this to our gods? Indeed, he is of the wrongdoers
قَالُواْ سَمِعنَا فَتی یَذکُرُهُم یُقَالُ لَهُٓ اِبرَهِیمُ
Qaloo samiAAna fatan yathkuruhum yuqalu lahu ibraheemu
They said, "We heard a young man mention them who is called Abraham
قَالُواْ فَاتُواْ بِهِ عَلَیٓ اَعیُنِ النَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُم یَشهَدُونَ
Qaloo fatoo bihi AAala aAAyuni alnnasi laAAallahum yashhadoona
They said, "Then bring him before the eyes of the people that they may testify
قَالُوٓاْ ءَاَنتَ فَعَلتَ هَذَا بَِٔالِهَتِنَا یَٓاِبرَهِیمُ
Qaloo aanta faAAalta hatha bialihatina ya ibraheemu
They said, "Have you done this to our gods, O Abraham
قَالَ بَل فَعَلَهُ کَبِیرُهُم هَذَا فَسَٔلُوهُم اِن کَانُواْ یَنطِقُونَ
Qala bal faAAalahu kabeeruhum hatha faisaloohum in kanoo yantiqoona
He said, "Rather, this - the largest of them - did it, so ask them, if they should [be able to] speak
فَرَجَعُوٓاْ اِلَیٓ اَنفُسِهِم فَقَالُوٓاْ اِنَّکُم اَنتُمُ الظَّلِمُونَ
FarajaAAoo ila anfusihim faqaloo innakum antumu alththalimoona
So they returned to [blaming] themselves and said [to each other], "Indeed, you are the wrongdoers
ثُمَّ نُکِسُواْ عَلَی رُءُوسِهِم لَقَد عَلِمتَ مَا هَٓؤُلَآءِ یَنطِقُونَ
Thumma nukisoo AAala ruoosihim laqad AAalimta ma haolai yantiqoona
Then they reversed themselves, [saying], "You have already known that these do not speak
قَالَ اَفَتَعبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ مَا لَا یَنفَعُکُم شَیٔا وَلَا یَضُرُّکُم
Qala afataAAbudoona min dooni Allahi ma la yanfaAAukum shayan wala yadurrukum
He said, "Then do you worship instead of Allah that which does not benefit you at all or harm you
اُفّ لَّکُم وَلِمَا تَعبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ اَفَلَا تَعقِلُونَ
Offin lakum walima taAAbudoona min dooni Allahi afala taAAqiloona
Uff to you and to what you worship instead of Allah. Then will you not use reason
قَالُواْ حَرِّقُوهُ وَانصُرُوٓاْ ءَالِهَتَکُم اِن کُنتُم فَعِلِینَ
Qaloo harriqoohu waonsuroo alihatakum in kuntum faAAileena
They said, "Burn him and support your gods - if you are to act
قُلنَا یَنَارُ کُونِی بَردا وَسَلَمًا عَلَیٓ اِبرَهِیمَ
Qulna ya naru koonee bardan wasalaman AAala ibraheema
Allah said, "O fire, be coolness and safety upon Abraham
وَاَرَادُواْ بِهِ کَیدا فَجَعَلنَهُمُ الاَخسَرِینَ
Waaradoo bihi kaydan fajaAAalnahumu alakhsareena
And they intended for him harm, but We made them the greatest losers
وَنَجَّینَهُ وَلُوطًا اِلَی الاَرضِ الَّتِی بَرَکنَا فِیهَا لِلعَلَمِینَ
Wanajjaynahu walootan ila alardi allatee barakna feeha lilAAalameena
And We delivered him and Lot to the land which We had blessed for the worlds
وَوَهَبنَا لَهُٓ اِسحَقَ وَیَعقُوبَ نَافِلَۃ وَکُلّا جَعَلنَا صَلِحِینَ
Wawahabna lahu ishaqa wayaAAqooba nafilatan wakullan jaAAalna saliheena
And We gave him Isaac and Jacob in addition, and all [of them] We made righteous
وَجَعَلنَهُم اَئِمَّۃ یَهدُونَ بِاَمرِنَا وَاَوحَینَآ اِلَیهِم فِعلَ الخَیرَتِ وَاِقَامَ الصَّلَوۃِ وَاِیتَآءَ الزَّکَوۃِ وَکَانُواْ لَنَا عَبِدِینَ
WajaAAalnahum aimmatan yahdoona biamrina waawhayna ilayhim fiAAla alkhayrati waiqama alssalati waeetaa alzzakati wakanoo lana AAabideena
And We made them leaders guiding by Our command. And We inspired to them the doing of good deeds, establishment of prayer, and giving of zakah; and they were worshippers of Us
وَلُوطًا ءَاتَینَهُ حُکما وَعِلما وَنَجَّینَهُ مِنَ القَریَۃِ الَّتِی کَانَت تَّعمَلُ الخَبَٓئِثَ اِنَّهُم کَانُواْ قَومَ سَوء فَسِقِینَ
Walootan ataynahu hukman waAAilman wanajjaynahu mina alqaryati allatee kanat taAAmalu alkhabaitha innahum kanoo qawma sawin fasiqeena
And to Lot We gave judgement and knowledge, and We saved him from the city that was committing wicked deeds. Indeed, they were a people of evil, defiantly disobedient
وَاَدخَلنَهُ فِی رَحمَتِنَآ اِنَّهُ مِنَ الصَّلِحِینَ
Waadkhalnahu fee rahmatina innahu mina alssaliheena
And We admitted him into Our mercy. Indeed, he was of the righteous
وَنُوحًا اِذ نَادَی مِن قَبلُ فَاستَجَبنَا لَهُ فَنَجَّینَهُ وَاَهلَهُ مِنَ الکَربِ العَظِیمِ
Wanoohan ith nada min qablu faistajabna lahu fanajjaynahu waahlahu mina alkarbi alAAatheemi
And [mention] Noah, when he called [to Allah] before [that time], so We responded to him and saved him and his family from the great flood
وَنَصَرنَهُ مِنَ القَومِ الَّذِینَ کَذَّبُواْ بَِٔایَتِنَآ اِنَّهُم کَانُواْ قَومَ سَوء فَاَغرَقنَهُم اَجمَعِینَ
Wanasarnahu mina alqawmi allatheena kaththaboo biayatina innahum kanoo qawma sawin faaghraqnahum ajmaAAeena
And We saved him from the people who denied Our signs. Indeed, they were a people of evil, so We drowned them, all together
وَدَاوُدَ وَسُلَیمَنَ اِذ یَحکُمَانِ فِی الحَرثِ اِذ نَفَشَت فِیهِ غَنَمُ القَومِ وَکُنَّا لِحُکمِهِم شَهِدِینَ
Wadawooda wasulaymana ith yahkumani fee alharthi ith nafashat feehi ghanamu alqawmi wakunna lihukmihim shahideena
And [mention] David and Solomon, when they judged concerning the field - when the sheep of a people overran it [at night], and We were witness to their judgement
فَفَهَّمنَهَا سُلَیمَنَ وَکُلًّا ءَاتَینَا حُکما وَعِلما وَسَخَّرنَا مَعَ دَاوُدَ الجِبَالَ یُسَبِّحنَ وَالطَّیرَ وَکُنَّا فَعِلِینَ
Fafahhamnaha sulaymana wakullan atayna hukman waAAilman wasakhkharna maAAa dawooda aljibala yusabbihna waalttayra wakunna faAAileena
And We gave understanding of the case to Solomon, and to each [of them] We gave judgement and knowledge. And We subjected the mountains to exalt [Us], along with David and [also] the birds. And We were doing [that]
وَعَلَّمنَهُ صَنعَۃَ لَبُوس لَّکُم لِتُحصِنَکُم مِّن بَاسِکُم فَهَل اَنتُم شَکِرُونَ
WaAAallamnahu sanAAata laboosin lakum lituhsinakum min basikum fahal antum shakiroona
And We taught him the fashioning of coats of armor to protect you from your [enemy in] battle. So will you then be grateful
وَلِسُلَیمَنَ الرِّیحَ عَاصِفَۃ تَجرِی بِاَمرِهِٓ اِلَی الاَرضِ الَّتِی بَرَکنَا فِیهَا وَکُنَّا بِکُلِّ شَیءٍ عَلِمِینَ
Walisulaymana alrreeha AAasifatan tajree biamrihi ila alardi allatee barakna feeha wakunna bikulli shayin AAalimeena
And to Solomon [We subjected] the wind, blowing forcefully, proceeding by his command toward the land which We had blessed. And We are ever, of all things, Knowing
وَمِنَ الشَّیَطِینِ مَن یَغُوصُونَ لَهُ وَیَعمَلُونَ عَمَلا دُونَ ذَلِکَ وَکُنَّا لَهُم حَفِظِینَ
Wamina alshshayateeni man yaghoosoona lahu wayaAAmaloona AAamalan doona thalika wakunna lahum hafitheena
And of the devils were those who dived for him and did work other than that. And We were of them a guardian
وَاَیُّوبَ اِذ نَادَی رَبَّهُٓ اَنِّی مَسَّنِیَ الضُّرُّ وَاَنتَ اَرحَمُ الرَّحِمِینَ
Waayyooba ith nada rabbahu annee massaniya alddurru waanta arhamu alrrahimeena
And [mention] Job, when he called to his Lord, "Indeed, adversity has touched me, and you are the Most Merciful of the merciful
فَاستَجَبنَا لَهُ فَکَشَفنَا مَا بِهِ مِن ضُرّ وَءَاتَینَهُ اَهلَهُ وَمِثلَهُم مَّعَهُم رَحمَۃ مِّن عِندِنَا وَذِکرَی لِلعَبِدِینَ
Faistajabna lahu fakashafna ma bihi min durrin waataynahu ahlahu wamithlahum maAAahum rahmatan min AAindina wathikra lilAAabideena
So We responded to him and removed what afflicted him of adversity. And We gave him [back] his family and the like thereof with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for the worshippers [of Allah]
وَاِسمَعِیلَ وَاِدرِیسَ وَذَا الکِفلِ کُلّٞ مِّنَ الصَّبِرِینَ
WaismaAAeela waidreesa watha alkifli kullun mina alssabireena
And [mention] Ishmael and Idrees and Dhul-Kifl; all were of the patient
وَاَدخَلنَهُم فِی رَحمَتِنَآ اِنَّهُم مِّنَ الصَّلِحِینَ
Waadkhalnahum fee rahmatina innahum mina alssaliheena
And We admitted them into Our mercy. Indeed, they were of the righteous
وَذَا النُّونِ اِذ ذَّهَبَ مُغَضِبا فَظَنَّ اَن لَّن نَّقدِرَ عَلَیهِ فَنَادَی فِی الظُّلُمَتِ اَن لَّآ اِلَهَ اِلَّآ اَنتَ سُبحَنَکَ اِنِّی کُنتُ مِنَ الظَّلِمِینَ
Watha alnnooni ith thahaba mughadiban fathanna an lan naqdira AAalayhi fanada fee alththulumati an la ilaha illa anta subhanaka innee kuntu mina alththalimeena
And [mention] the man of the fish, when he went off in anger and thought that We would not decree [anything] upon him. And he called out within the darknesses, "There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers
فَاستَجَبنَا لَهُ وَنَجَّینَهُ مِنَ الغَمِّ وَکَذَلِکَ نُجِی المُؤمِنِینَ
Faistajabna lahu wanajjaynahu mina alghammi wakathalika nunjee almumineena
So We responded to him and saved him from the distress. And thus do We save the believers
وَزَکَرِیَّآ اِذ نَادَی رَبَّهُ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرنِی فَردا وَاَنتَ خَیرُ الوَرِثِینَ
Wazakariyya ith nada rabbahu rabbi la tatharnee fardan waanta khayru alwaritheena
And [mention] Zechariah, when he called to his Lord, "My Lord, do not leave me alone [with no heir], while you are the best of inheritors
فَاستَجَبنَا لَهُ وَوَهَبنَا لَهُ یَحیَی وَاَصلَحنَا لَهُ زَوجَهُٓ اِنَّهُم کَانُواْ یُسَرِعُونَ فِی الخَیرَتِ وَیَدعُونَنَا رَغَبا وَرَهَبا وَکَانُواْ لَنَا خَشِعِینَ
Faistajabna lahu wawahabna lahu yahya waaslahna lahu zawjahu innahum kanoo yusariAAoona fee alkhayrati wayadAAoonana raghaban warahaban wakanoo lana khashiAAeena
So We responded to him, and We gave to him John, and amended for him his wife. Indeed, they used to hasten to good deeds and supplicate Us in hope and fear, and they were to Us humbly submissive
وَالَّتِیٓ اَحصَنَت فَرجَهَا فَنَفَخنَا فِیهَا مِن رُّوحِنَا وَجَعَلنَهَا وَابنَهَآ ءَایَۃ لِّلعَلَمِینَ
Waallatee ahsanat farjaha fanafakhna feeha min roohina wajaAAalnaha waibnaha ayatan lilAAalameena
And [mention] the one who guarded her chastity, so We blew into her [garment] through Our angel [Gabriel], and We made her and her son a sign for the worlds
اِنَّ هَذِهِٓ اُمَّتُکُم اُمَّۃ وَحِدَۃ وَاَنَا رَبُّکُم فَاعبُدُونِ
Inna hathihi ommatukum ommatan wahidatan waana rabbukum faoAAbudooni
Indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so worship Me
وَتَقَطَّعُوٓاْ اَمرَهُم بَینَهُم کُلٌّ اِلَینَا رَجِعُونَ
WataqattaAAoo amrahum baynahum kullun ilayna rajiAAoona
And [yet] they divided their affair among themselves, [but] all to Us will return
فَمَن یَعمَل مِنَ الصَّلِحَتِ وَهُوَ مُؤمِنٞ فَلَا کُفرَانَ لِسَعیِهِ وَاِنَّا لَهُ کَتِبُونَ
Faman yaAAmal mina alssalihati wahuwa muminun fala kufrana lisaAAyihi wainna lahu katiboona
So whoever does righteous deeds while he is a believer - no denial will there be for his effort, and indeed We, of it, are recorders
وَحَرَمٌ عَلَی قَریَۃٍ اَهلَکنَهَآ اَنَّهُم لَا یَرجِعُونَ
Waharamun AAala qaryatin ahlaknaha annahum la yarjiAAoona
And there is prohibition upon [the people of] a city which We have destroyed that they will [ever] return
حَتَّیٓ اِذَا فُتِحَت یَاجُوجُ وَمَاجُوجُ وَهُم مِّن کُلِّ حَدَب یَنسِلُونَ
Hatta itha futihat yajooju wamajooju wahum min kulli hadabin yansiloona
Until when [the dam of] Gog and Magog has been opened and they, from every elevation, descend
وَاقتَرَبَ الوَعدُ الحَقُّ فَاِذَا هِیَ شَخِصَۃٌ اَبصَرُ الَّذِینَ کَفَرُواْ یَوَیلَنَا قَد کُنَّا فِی غَفلَۃ مِّن هَذَا بَل کُنَّا ظَلِمِینَ
Waiqtaraba alwaAAdu alhaqqu faitha hiya shakhisatun absaru allatheena kafaroo ya waylana qad kunna fee ghaflatin min hatha bal kunna thalimeena
And [when] the true promise has approached; then suddenly the eyes of those who disbelieved will be staring [in horror, while they say], "O woe to us; we had been unmindful of this; rather, we were wrongdoers
اِنَّکُم وَمَا تَعبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ حَصَبُ جَهَنَّمَ اَنتُم لَهَا وَرِدُونَ
Innakum wama taAAbudoona min dooni Allahi hasabu jahannama antum laha waridoona
Indeed, you [disbelievers] and what you worship other than Allah are the firewood of Hell. You will be coming to [enter] it
لَو کَانَ هَٓؤُلَآءِ ءَالِهَۃ مَّا وَرَدُوهَا وَکُلّٞ فِیهَا خَلِدُونَ
Law kana haolai alihatan ma waradooha wakullun feeha khalidoona
Had these [false deities] been [actual] gods, they would not have come to it, but all are eternal therein
لَهُم فِیهَا زَفِیرٞ وَهُم فِیهَا لَا یَسمَعُونَ
Lahum feeha zafeerun wahum feeha la yasmaAAoona
For them therein is heavy sighing, and they therein will not hear
اِنَّ الَّذِینَ سَبَقَت لَهُم مِّنَّا الحُسنَیٓ اُوْلَٓئِکَ عَنهَا مُبعَدُونَ
Inna allatheena sabaqat lahum minna alhusna olaika AAanha mubAAadoona
Indeed, those for whom the best [reward] has preceded from Us - they are from it far removed
لَا یَسمَعُونَ حَسِیسَهَا وَهُم فِی مَا اشتَهَت اَنفُسُهُم خَلِدُونَ
La yasmaAAoona haseesaha wahum fee ma ishtahat anfusuhum khalidoona
They will not hear its sound, while they are, in that which their souls desire, abiding eternally
لَا یَحزُنُهُمُ الفَزَعُ الاَکبَرُ وَتَتَلَقَّیهُمُ المَلَٓئِکَۃُ هَذَا یَومُکُمُ الَّذِی کُنتُم تُوعَدُونَ
La yahzunuhumu alfazaAAu alakbaru watatalaqqahumu almalaikatu hatha yawmukumu allathee kuntum tooAAadoona
They will not be grieved by the greatest terror, and the angels will meet them, [saying], "This is your Day which you have been promised
یَومَ نَطوِی السَّمَآءَ کَطَیِّ السِّجِلِّ لِلکُتُبِ کَمَا بَدَانَآ اَوَّلَ خَلق نُّعِیدُهُ وَعدًا عَلَینَآ اِنَّا کُنَّا فَعِلِینَ
Yawma natwee alssamaa katayyi alssijlli lilkutubi kama badana awwala khalqin nuAAeeduhu waAAdan AAalayna inna kunna faAAileena
The Day when We will fold the heaven like the folding of a [written] sheet for the records. As We began the first creation, We will repeat it. [That is] a promise binding upon Us. Indeed, We will do it
وَلَقَد کَتَبنَا فِی الزَّبُورِ مِن بَعدِ الذِّکرِ اَنَّ الاَرضَ یَرِثُهَا عِبَادِیَ الصَّلِحُونَ
Walaqad katabna fee alzzaboori min baAAdi alththikri anna alarda yarithuha AAibadiya alssalihoona
And We have already written in the book [of Psalms] after the [previous] mention that the land [of Paradise] is inherited by My righteous servants
اِنَّ فِی هَذَا لَبَلَغا لِّقَومٍ عَبِدِینَ
Inna fee hatha labalaghan liqawmin AAabideena
Indeed, in this [Qur'an] is notification for a worshipping people
وَمَآ اَرسَلنَکَ اِلَّا رَحمَۃ لِّلعَلَمِینَ
Wama arsalnaka illa rahmatan lilAAalameena
And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds
قُل اِنَّمَا یُوحَیٓ اِلَیَّ اَنَّمَآ اِلَهُکُم اِلَهٞ وَحِدٞ فَهَل اَنتُم مُّسلِمُونَ
Qul innama yooha ilayya annama ilahukum ilahun wahidun fahal antum muslimoona
Say, "It is only revealed to me that your god is but one God; so will you be Muslims [in submission to Him]
فَاِن تَوَلَّواْ فَقُل ءَاذَنتُکُم عَلَی سَوَآء وَاِن اَدرِیٓ اَقَرِیبٌ اَم بَعِیدٞ مَّا تُوعَدُونَ
Fain tawallaw faqul athantukum AAala sawain wain adree aqareebun am baAAeedun ma tooAAadoona
But if they turn away, then say, "I have announced to [all of] you equally. And I know not whether near or far is that which you are promised
اِنَّهُ یَعلَمُ الجَهرَ مِنَ القَولِ وَیَعلَمُ مَا تَکتُمُونَ
Innahu yaAAlamu aljahra mina alqawli wayaAAlamu ma taktumoona
Indeed, He knows what is declared of speech, and He knows what you conceal
وَاِن اَدرِی لَعَلَّهُ فِتنَۃٞ لَّکُم وَمَتَعٌ اِلَی حِین
Wain adree laAAallahu fitnatun lakum wamataAAun ila heenin
And I know not; perhaps it is a trial for you and enjoyment for a time
قَلَ رَبِّ احکُم بِالحَقِّ وَرَبُّنَا الرَّحمَنُ المُستَعَانُ عَلَی مَا تَصِفُونَ
Qala rabbi ohkum bialhaqqi warabbuna alrrahmanu almustaAAanu AAala ma tasifoona
[The Prophet] has said, "My Lord, judge [between us] in truth. And our Lord is the Most Merciful, the one whose help is sought against that which you describe
