Surah Al An'am

Translation by:
Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

1. اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ وَجَعَلَ الظُّلُمٰتِ وَالنُّوْرَ ەۗ ثُمَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِرَبِّهِمْ يَعْدِلُوْنَ

   Al-ḥamdu lillāhil-lażī khalaqas-samāwāti wal-arḍa wa ja‘alaẓ-ẓulumāti wan-nūr(a), ṡummal-lażīna kafarū birabbihim ya‘dilūn(a).

   All praise is for Allah Who created the heavens and the earth and made darkness and light. Yet the disbelievers set up equals to their Lord ˹in worship˺.

2. هُوَ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَكُمْ مِّنْ طِيْنٍ ثُمَّ قَضٰٓى اَجَلًا ۗوَاَجَلٌ مُّسَمًّى عِنْدَهٗ ثُمَّ اَنْتُمْ تَمْتَرُوْنَ

   Huwal-lażī khalaqakum min ṭīnin ṡumma qaḍā ajalā(n), wa ajalum musamman ‘indahū ṡumma antum tamtarūn(a).

   He is the One Who created you from clay, then appointed a term ˹for your death˺ and another known only to Him ˹for your resurrection˺—yet you continue to doubt!

3. وَهُوَ اللّٰهُ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَفِى الْاَرْضِۗ يَعْلَمُ سِرَّكُمْ وَجَهْرَكُمْ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْسِبُوْنَ

   Wa huwallāhu fis-samāwāti wa fil-arḍ(i), ya‘lamu sirrakum wa jahrakum wa ya‘lamu mā taksibūn(a).

   He is the Only True God in the heavens and the earth. He knows whatever you conceal and whatever you reveal, and knows whatever you do.

4. وَمَا تَأْتِيْهِمْ مِّنْ اٰيَةٍ مِّنْ اٰيٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ اِلَّا كَانُوْا عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِيْنَ

   Wa mā ta'tīhim min āyatim min āyāti rabbihim illā kānū ‘anhā mu‘riḍīn(a).

   Whenever a sign comes to them from their Lord, they turn away from it.

5. فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوْا بِالْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَاۤءَهُمْۗ فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِيْهِمْ اَنْۢبـٰۤؤُا مَا كَانُوْا بِهٖ يَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ

   Faqad każżabū bil-ḥaqqi lammā jā'ahum fa saufa ya'tīhim ambā'u mā kānū bihī yastahzi'ūn(a).

   They have indeed rejected the truth when it came to them, so they will soon face the consequences of their ridicule.

6. اَلَمْ يَرَوْا كَمْ اَهْلَكْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ مِّنْ قَرْنٍ مَّكَّنّٰهُمْ فِى الْاَرْضِ مَا لَمْ نُمَكِّنْ لَّكُمْ وَاَرْسَلْنَا السَّمَاۤءَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّدْرَارًا ۖوَّجَعَلْنَا الْاَنْهٰرَ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِهِمْ فَاَهْلَكْنٰهُمْ بِذُنُوْبِهِمْ وَاَنْشَأْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْنًا اٰخَرِيْنَ

   Alam yarau kam ahlaknā min qablihim min qarnim makkanāhum fil-arḍi mā lam numakkil lakum wa arsalnas-samā'a ‘alaihim midrārā(n), wa ja‘alnal-anhāra tajrī min taḥtihim fa ahlaknāhum biżunūbihim wa ansya'nā mim ba‘dihim qarnan ākharīn(a).

   Have they not seen how many ˹disbelieving˺ peoples We destroyed before them? We had made them more established in the land than you. We sent down abundant rain for them and made rivers flow at their feet. Then We destroyed them for their sins and replaced them with other peoples.

7. وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكَ كِتٰبًا فِيْ قِرْطَاسٍ فَلَمَسُوْهُ بِاَيْدِيْهِمْ لَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اِنْ هٰذَآ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ

   Wa lau nazzalnā ‘alaika kitāban fī qirṭāsin fa lamasūhu bi'aidīhim laqālal-lażīna kafarū in hāżā illā siḥrum mubīn(un).

   Had We sent down to you ˹O Prophet˺ a revelation in writing and they were to touch it with their own hands, the disbelievers would still have said, “This is nothing but pure magic!”

8. وَقَالُوْا لَوْلَآ اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكٌ ۗوَلَوْ اَنْزَلْنَا مَلَكًا لَّقُضِيَ الْاَمْرُ ثُمَّ لَا يُنْظَرُوْنَ

   Wa qālū lau lā unzila ‘alaihi malak(un), wa lau anzalnā malakal laquḍiyal-amru ṡumma lā yunẓarūn(a).

   They say, “Why has no ˹visible˺ angel come with him?” Had We sent down an angel, the matter would have certainly been settled ˹at once˺, and they would have never been given more time ˹to repent˺.

9. وَلَوْ جَعَلْنٰهُ مَلَكًا لَّجَعَلْنٰهُ رَجُلًا وَّلَلَبَسْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ مَّا يَلْبِسُوْنَ

   Wa lau ja‘alnāhu malakal laja‘alnāhu rajulaw wa lalabasnā ‘alaihim mā yalbisūn(a).

   And if We had sent an angel, We would have certainly made it ˹assume the form of˺ a man—leaving them more confused than they already are.

10. وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِالَّذِيْنَ سَخِرُوْا مِنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ يَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ ࣖ

    Wa laqadistuhzi'a birusulim min qablika fa ḥāqa bil-lażīna sakhirū minhum mā kānū bihī yastahzi'ūn(a).

    ˹Other˺ messengers had already been ridiculed before you ˹O Prophet˺, but those who mocked them were overtaken by what they used to ridicule.

11. قُلْ سِيْرُوْا فِى الْاَرْضِ ثُمَّ انْظُرُوْا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِيْنَ

    Qul sīrū fil-arḍi ṡummanẓurū kaifa kāna ‘āqibatul-mukażżibīn(a).

    Say, “Travel throughout the land and see the fate of the deniers.”

12. قُلْ لِّمَنْ مَّا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ قُلْ لِّلّٰهِ ۗ كَتَبَ عَلٰى نَفْسِهِ الرَّحْمَةَ ۗ لَيَجْمَعَنَّكُمْ اِلٰى يَوْمِ الْقِيٰمَةِ لَا رَيْبَ فِيْهِۗ اَلَّذِيْنَ خَسِرُوْٓا اَنْفُسَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ

    Qul limam mā fis-samāwāti wal-arḍ(i), qul lillāh(i), kataba ‘alā nafsihir-raḥmah(ta), layajma‘annakum ilā yaumil-qiyāmati lā raiba fīh(i), al-lażīna khasirū anfusahum fahum lā yu'minūn(a).

    Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “To whom belongs everything in the heavens and the earth?” Say, “To Allah!” He has taken upon Himself to be Merciful. He will certainly gather ˹all of˺ you together for the Day of Judgment—about which there is no doubt. But those who have ruined themselves will never believe.

13. ۞ وَلَهٗ مَا سَكَنَ فِى الَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ ۗوَهُوَ السَّمِيْعُ الْعَلِيْمُ

    Wa lahū mā sakana fil-laili wan-nahār(i), wa huwas-samī‘ul-‘alīm(u).

    To Him belongs whatever exists in the day and night. And He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

14. قُلْ اَغَيْرَ اللّٰهِ اَتَّخِذُ وَلِيًّا فَاطِرِ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَهُوَ يُطْعِمُ وَلَا يُطْعَمُ ۗ قُلْ اِنِّيْٓ اُمِرْتُ اَنْ اَكُوْنَ اَوَّلَ مَنْ اَسْلَمَ وَلَا تَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ

    Qul agairallāhi attakhiżu waliyyan fāṭiris-samāwāti wal-arḍi wa huwa yuṭ‘imu wa lā yuṭ‘am(u), qul innī umirtu an akūna awwala man aslama wa lā takūnanna minal-musyrikīn(a).

    Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Will I take any guardian other than Allah, the Originator of the heavens and the earth, Who provides for all and is not in need of provision?” Say, “I have been commanded to be the first to submit and not be one of the polytheists.”

15. قُلْ اِنِّيْٓ اَخَافُ اِنْ عَصَيْتُ رَبِّيْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيْمٍ

    Qul innī akhāfu in ‘aṣaitu rabbī ‘ażāba yaumin ‘aẓīm(in).

    Say, “I truly fear—if I were to disobey my Lord—the torment of a tremendous Day.”

16. مَنْ يُّصْرَفْ عَنْهُ يَوْمَىِٕذٍ فَقَدْ رَحِمَهٗ ۗوَذٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْمُبِيْنُ

    May yuṣraf ‘anhu yauma'iżin faqad raḥimah(ū), wa żālikal-fauzul-mubīn(u).

    Whoever is spared the torment of that Day will have certainly been shown Allah’s mercy. And that is the absolute triumph.

17. وَاِنْ يَّمْسَسْكَ اللّٰهُ بِضُرٍّ فَلَا كَاشِفَ لَهٗٓ اِلَّا هُوَ ۗوَاِنْ يَّمْسَسْكَ بِخَيْرٍ فَهُوَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ

    Iy yamsaskallāhu biḍurrin falā kāsyifa lahū illā huw(a), wa iy yamsaska bikhairin fa huwa ‘alā kulli syai'in qadīr(un).

    If Allah touches you with harm, none can undo it except Him. And if He touches you with a blessing, He is Most Capable of everything.

18. وَهُوَ الْقَاهِرُ فَوْقَ عِبَادِهٖۗ وَهُوَ الْحَكِيْمُ الْخَبِيْرُ

    Wa huwal-qāhiru fauqa ‘ibādih(ī), wa huwal-ḥakīmul-khabīr(u).

    He reigns supreme over His creation. And He is the All-Wise, All-Aware.

19. قُلْ اَيُّ شَيْءٍ اَكْبَرُ شَهَادَةً ۗ قُلِ اللّٰهُ ۗشَهِيْدٌۢ بَيْنِيْ وَبَيْنَكُمْ ۗوَاُوْحِيَ اِلَيَّ هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنُ لِاُنْذِرَكُمْ بِهٖ وَمَنْۢ بَلَغَ ۗ اَىِٕنَّكُمْ لَتَشْهَدُوْنَ اَنَّ مَعَ اللّٰهِ اٰلِهَةً اُخْرٰىۗ قُلْ لَّآ اَشْهَدُ ۚ قُلْ اِنَّمَا هُوَ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌ وَّاِنَّنِيْ بَرِيْۤءٌ مِّمَّا تُشْرِكُوْنَ

    Qul ayyu syai'in akbaru syahādah(tan), qulillāhu syahīdum bainī wa bainakum, wa ūḥiya ilayya hāżal-qur'ānu li'unżirakum bihī wa man balag(a), a'innakum latasyhadūna anna ma‘allāhi ālihatan ukhrā, qul lā asyhad(u), qul innamā huwa ilāhuw wāḥiduw wa innanī barī'um mimmā tusyrikūn(a).

    Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Who is the best witness?” Say, “Allah is! He is a Witness between me and you. And this Quran has been revealed to me so that, with it, I may warn you and whoever it reaches. Do you ˹pagans˺ testify that there are other gods besides Allah?” ˹Then˺ say, “I will never testify ˹to this˺!” ˹And˺ say, “There is only One God. And I totally reject whatever ˹idols˺ you associate with Him.”

20. اَلَّذِيْنَ اٰتَيْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ يَعْرِفُوْنَهٗ كَمَا يَعْرِفُوْنَ اَبْنَاۤءَهُمْۘ اَلَّذِيْنَ خَسِرُوْٓا اَنْفُسَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ ࣖ

    Al-lażīna ātaināhumul-kitāba ya‘rifūnahū kamā ya‘rifūna abnā'ahum, al-lażīna khasirū anfusahum fahum lā yu'minūn(a).

    Those to whom We gave the Scripture recognize him ˹to be a true prophet˺ as they recognize their own children. Those who have ruined themselves will never believe.

21. وَمَنْ اَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ افْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا اَوْ كَذَّبَ بِاٰيٰتِهٖۗ اِنَّهٗ لَا يُفْلِحُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ

    Wa man aẓlamu mimmaniftarā ‘alallāhi każiban au każżaba bi'āyātih(ī), innahū lā yufliḥuẓ-ẓālimūn(a).

    Who does more wrong than those who fabricate lies against Allah or deny His signs? Indeed, the wrongdoers will never succeed.

22. وَيَوْمَ نَحْشُرُهُمْ جَمِيْعًا ثُمَّ نَقُوْلُ لِلَّذِيْنَ اَشْرَكُوْٓا اَيْنَ شُرَكَاۤؤُكُمُ الَّذِيْنَ كُنْتُمْ تَزْعُمُوْنَ

    Wa yauma naḥsyuruhum jamī‘an ṡumma naqūlu lil-lażīna asyrakū aina syurakā'ukumul-lażīna kuntum taz‘umūn(a).

    ˹Consider˺ the Day We will gather them all together then ask those who associated others ˹with Allah in worship˺, “Where are those gods you used to claim?”

23. ثُمَّ لَمْ تَكُنْ فِتْنَتُهُمْ اِلَّآ اَنْ قَالُوْا وَاللّٰهِ رَبِّنَا مَا كُنَّا مُشْرِكِيْنَ

    Ṡumma lam takun fitnatuhum illā an qālū wallāhi rabbinā mā kunnā musyrikīn(a).

    Their only argument will be: “By Allah, our Lord! We were never polytheists.”

24. اُنْظُرْ كَيْفَ كَذَبُوْا عَلٰٓى اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا يَفْتَرُوْنَ

    Unẓur kaifa każabū ‘alā anfusihim wa ḍalla ‘anhum mā kānū yaftarūn(a).

    See how they will lie about themselves and how those ˹gods˺ they fabricated will fail them!

25. وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ يَّسْتَمِعُ اِلَيْكَ ۚوَجَعَلْنَا عَلٰى قُلُوْبِهِمْ اَكِنَّةً اَنْ يَّفْقَهُوْهُ وَفِيْٓ اٰذَانِهِمْ وَقْرًا ۗوَاِنْ يَّرَوْا كُلَّ اٰيَةٍ لَّا يُؤْمِنُوْا بِهَا ۗحَتّٰٓى اِذَا جَاۤءُوْكَ يُجَادِلُوْنَكَ يَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اِنْ هٰذَآ اِلَّآ اَسَاطِيْرُ الْاَوَّلِيْنَ

    Wa minhum may yastami‘u ilaik(a), wa ja‘alnā ‘alā qulūbihim akinnatan ay yafqahūhu wa fī āżānihim waqrā(n), wa iy yarau kulla āyatil lā yu'minū bihā, ḥattā iżā jā'ūka yujādilūnaka yaqūlul-lażīna kafarū in hāżā illā asāṭīrul-awwalīn(a).

    There are some of them who ˹pretend to˺ listen to your recitation ˹of the Quran˺, but We have cast veils over their hearts—leaving them unable to comprehend it—and deafness in their ears. Even if they were to see every sign, they still would not believe in them. The disbelievers would ˹even˺ come to argue with you, saying, “This ˹Quran˺ is nothing but ancient fables!”

26. وَهُمْ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْهُ وَيَنْـَٔوْنَ عَنْهُ ۚوَاِنْ يُّهْلِكُوْنَ اِلَّآ اَنْفُسَهُمْ وَمَا يَشْعُرُوْنَ

    Wa hum yanhauna ‘anhu wa yan'auna ‘anh(u), wa iy yuhlikūna illā anfusahum wa mā yasy‘urūn(a).

    They turn others away from the Prophet and distance themselves as well. They ruin none but themselves, yet they fail to perceive it.

27. وَلَوْ تَرٰٓى اِذْ وُقِفُوْا عَلَى النَّارِ فَقَالُوْا يٰلَيْتَنَا نُرَدُّ وَلَا نُكَذِّبَ بِاٰيٰتِ رَبِّنَا وَنَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ

    Wa lau tarā iż wuqifū ‘alan-nāsi fa qālū yā laitanā nuraddu wa lā nukażżiba bi'āyāti rabbinā wa nakūna minal-mu'minīn(a).

    If only you could see when they will be detained before the Fire! They will cry, “Oh! If only we could be sent back, we would never deny the signs of our Lord and we would ˹surely˺ be of the believers.”

28. بَلْ بَدَا لَهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا يُخْفُوْنَ مِنْ قَبْلُ ۗوَلَوْ رُدُّوْا لَعَادُوْا لِمَا نُهُوْا عَنْهُ وَاِنَّهُمْ لَكٰذِبُوْنَ

    Bal badā lahum mā kānū yukhfūna min qabl(u), wa lau ruddū la‘ādū limā nuhū ‘anhu wa innahum lakāżibūn(a).

    But no! ˹They only say this˺ because the truth they used to hide will become all too clear to them. Even if they were to be sent back, they would certainly revert to what they were forbidden. Indeed they are liars!

29. وَقَالُوْٓا اِنْ هِيَ اِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا الدُّنْيَا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَبْعُوْثِيْنَ

    Wa qālū in hiya illā ḥayātunad-dun-yā wa mā naḥnu bimab‘ūṡīn(a).

    They insisted, “There is nothing beyond this worldly life and we will never be resurrected.”

30. وَلَوْ تَرٰٓى اِذْ وُقِفُوْا عَلٰى رَبِّهِمْ ۗ قَالَ اَلَيْسَ هٰذَا بِالْحَقِّ ۗقَالُوْا بَلٰى وَرَبِّنَا ۗقَالَ فَذُوْقُوا الْعَذَابَ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَكْفُرُوْنَ ࣖ

    Wa lau tarā iż wuqifū ‘alā rabbihim, qāla alaisa hāżā bil-ḥaqq(i), qālū balā wa rabbinā, qāla fa żūqul-‘ażāba bimā kuntum takfurūn(a).

    But if only you could see when they will be detained before their Lord! He will ask ˹them˺, “Is this ˹Hereafter˺ not the truth?” They will cry, “Absolutely, by our Lord!” He will say, “Then taste the punishment for your disbelief.”

31. قَدْ خَسِرَ الَّذِيْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِلِقَاۤءِ اللّٰهِ ۗحَتّٰٓى اِذَا جَاۤءَتْهُمُ السَّاعَةُ بَغْتَةً قَالُوْا يٰحَسْرَتَنَا عَلٰى مَا فَرَّطْنَا فِيْهَاۙ وَهُمْ يَحْمِلُوْنَ اَوْزَارَهُمْ عَلٰى ظُهُوْرِهِمْۗ اَلَا سَاۤءَ مَا يَزِرُوْنَ

    Qad khasiral-lażīna każżabū biliqā'illāh(i), ḥattā iżā jā'athumus-sā‘atu bagtatan qālū yā ḥasratanā ‘alā mā farraṭnā fīhā, wa hum yaḥmilūna auzārahum ‘alā ẓuhūrihim, alā sā'a mā yazirūn(a).

    Losers indeed are those who deny the meeting with Allah until the Hour takes them by surprise, then they will cry, “Woe to us for having ignored this!” They will bear ˹the burden of˺ their sins on their backs. Evil indeed is their burden!

32. وَمَا الْحَيٰوةُ الدُّنْيَآ اِلَّا لَعِبٌ وَّلَهْوٌ ۗوَلَلدَّارُ الْاٰخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لِّلَّذِيْنَ يَتَّقُوْنَۗ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ

    Wa mal-ḥayātud-dun-yā illā la‘ibuw wa lahw(un), wa lad-dārul-ākhiratu khairul lil-lażīna yattaqūn(a), afalā ta‘qilūn(a).

    This worldly life is no more than play and amusement, but far better is the ˹eternal˺ Home of the Hereafter for those mindful ˹of Allah˺. Will you not then understand?

33. قَدْ نَعْلَمُ اِنَّهٗ لَيَحْزُنُكَ الَّذِيْ يَقُوْلُوْنَ فَاِنَّهُمْ لَا يُكَذِّبُوْنَكَ وَلٰكِنَّ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ بِاٰيٰتِ اللّٰهِ يَجْحَدُوْنَ

    Qad na‘lamu innahū layaḥzunukal-lażī yaqūlūna fa innahum lā yukażżibūnaka wa lākinnaẓ-ẓālimīna bi'āyātillāhi yajhadūn(a).

    We certainly know that what they say grieves you ˹O Prophet˺. It is not your honesty they question—it is Allah’s signs that the wrongdoers deny.

34. وَلَقَدْ كُذِّبَتْ رُسُلٌ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَصَبَرُوْا عَلٰى مَا كُذِّبُوْا وَاُوْذُوْا حَتّٰٓى اَتٰىهُمْ نَصْرُنَا ۚوَلَا مُبَدِّلَ لِكَلِمٰتِ اللّٰهِ ۚوَلَقَدْ جَاۤءَكَ مِنْ نَّبَإِ۟ى الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ

    Wa laqad kużżibat rusulum min qablika fa ṣabarū ‘alā mā kużżibū wa ūżū ḥattā atāhum naṣrunā, wa lā mubaddila likalimātillāh(i), wa laqad jā'aka min naba'il-mursalīn(a).

    Indeed, messengers before you were rejected but patiently endured rejection and persecution until Our help came to them. And Allah’s promise ˹to help˺ is never broken. And you have already received some of the narratives of these messengers.

35. وَاِنْ كَانَ كَبُرَ عَلَيْكَ اِعْرَاضُهُمْ فَاِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ اَنْ تَبْتَغِيَ نَفَقًا فِى الْاَرْضِ اَوْ سُلَّمًا فِى السَّمَاۤءِ فَتَأْتِيَهُمْ بِاٰيَةٍ ۗوَلَوْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ لَجَمَعَهُمْ عَلَى الْهُدٰى فَلَا تَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْجٰهِلِيْنَ

    Wa in kāna kabura ‘alaika i‘rāḍuhum fa inistaṭa‘ta an tabtagiya nafaqan fil-arḍi au sullaman fis-samā'i fa ta'tiyahum bi'āyah(tin), wa lau syā'allāhu lajama‘ahum ‘alal-hudā falā takūnanna minal-jāhilīn(a).

    If you find their denial unbearable, then build—if you can—a tunnel through the earth or stairs to the sky to bring them a ˹more compelling˺ sign. Had Allah so willed, He could have guided them all. So do not be one of those ignorant ˹of this fact˺.

36. ۞ اِنَّمَا يَسْتَجِيْبُ الَّذِيْنَ يَسْمَعُوْنَ ۗوَالْمَوْتٰى يَبْعَثُهُمُ اللّٰهُ ثُمَّ اِلَيْهِ يُرْجَعُوْنَ

    Innamā yastajībul-lażīna yasma‘ūn(a), wal-mautā yab‘aṡuhumullāhu ṡumma ilaihi yurja‘ūn(a).

    Only the attentive will respond ˹to your call˺. As for the dead, Allah will raise them up, then to Him they will ˹all˺ be returned.

37. وَقَالُوْا لَوْلَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ اٰيَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖۗ قُلْ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ قَادِرٌ عَلٰٓى اَنْ يُّنَزِّلَ اٰيَةً وَّلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ

    Wa qālū lau lā nuzzila ‘alaihi āyatum mir rabbih(ī), qul innallāha qādirun ‘alā ay yunazzila āyataw wa lākinna akṡarahum lā ya‘lamūn(a).

    They ask, “Why has no ˹other˺ sign been sent down to him from his Lord?” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Allah certainly has the power to send down a sign—though most of them do not know.”

38. وَمَا مِنْ دَاۤبَّةٍ فِى الْاَرْضِ وَلَا طٰۤىِٕرٍ يَّطِيْرُ بِجَنَاحَيْهِ اِلَّآ اُمَمٌ اَمْثَالُكُمْ ۗمَا فَرَّطْنَا فِى الْكِتٰبِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ ثُمَّ اِلٰى رَبِّهِمْ يُحْشَرُوْنَ

    Wa mā min dābbatin fil-arḍi wa lā ṭā'iriy yaṭīru bijanāḥaihi illā umamun amṡālukum, mā farraṭnā fil-kitābi min syai'in ṡumma ilā rabbihim yuḥsyarūn(a).

    All living beings roaming the earth and winged birds soaring in the sky are communities like yourselves. We have left nothing out of the Record. Then to their Lord they will be gathered all together.

39. وَالَّذِيْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِنَا صُمٌّ وَّبُكْمٌ فِى الظُّلُمٰتِۗ مَنْ يَّشَاِ اللّٰهُ يُضْلِلْهُ وَمَنْ يَّشَأْ يَجْعَلْهُ عَلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ

    Wal-lażīna każżabū bi'āyātinā ṣummuw wa bukmun fiẓ-ẓulumāt(i), may yasya'illāhu yuḍlilhu wa may yasya' yaj‘alhu ‘alā ṣirāṭim mustaqīm(in).

    Those who deny Our signs are ˹wilfully˺ deaf and dumb—lost in darkness. Allah leaves whoever He wills to stray and guides whoever He wills to the Straight Way.

40. قُلْ اَرَءَيْتَكُمْ اِنْ اَتٰىكُمْ عَذَابُ اللّٰهِ اَوْ اَتَتْكُمُ السَّاعَةُ اَغَيْرَ اللّٰهِ تَدْعُوْنَۚ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ

    Qul ara'aitakum in atākum ‘ażābullāhi au atatkumus-sā‘atu agairallāhi tad‘ūn(a), in kuntum ṣādiqīn(a).

    Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Imagine if you were overwhelmed by Allah’s torment or the Hour—would you call upon any other than Allah ˹for help˺? ˹Answer me˺ if your claims are true!

41. بَلْ اِيَّاهُ تَدْعُوْنَ فَيَكْشِفُ مَا تَدْعُوْنَ اِلَيْهِ اِنْ شَاۤءَ وَتَنْسَوْنَ مَا تُشْرِكُوْنَ ࣖ

    Bal iyyāhu tad‘ūna fa yaksyifu mā tad‘ūna ilaihi in syā'a wa tansauna mā tusyrikūn(a).

    No! He is the only One you would call. And if He willed, He could remove the affliction that made you invoke Him. Only then will you forget whatever you associate with Him ˹in worship˺.”

42. وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَآ اِلٰٓى اُمَمٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَاَخَذْنٰهُمْ بِالْبَأْسَاۤءِ وَالضَّرَّاۤءِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَضَرَّعُوْنَ

    Wa laqad arsalnā ilā umamim min qablika fa akhażnāhum bil-ba'sā'i waḍ-ḍarrā'i la‘allahum yataḍarra‘ūn(a).

    Indeed, We have sent messengers before you ˹O Prophet˺ to other people who We put through suffering and adversity ˹for their denial˺, so perhaps they would be humbled.

43. فَلَوْلَآ اِذْ جَاۤءَهُمْ بَأْسُنَا تَضَرَّعُوْا وَلٰكِنْ قَسَتْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطٰنُ مَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ

    Falau lā iż jā'ahum ba'sunā taḍarra‘ū wa lākin qasat qulūbuhum wa zayyana lahumusy-syaiṭānu mā kānū ya‘malūn(a).

    Why did they not humble themselves when We made them suffer? Instead, their hearts were hardened, and Satan made their misdeeds appealing to them.

44. فَلَمَّا نَسُوْا مَا ذُكِّرُوْا بِهٖ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ اَبْوَابَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍۗ حَتّٰٓى اِذَا فَرِحُوْا بِمَآ اُوْتُوْٓا اَخَذْنٰهُمْ بَغْتَةً فَاِذَا هُمْ مُّبْلِسُوْنَ

    Falammā nasū mā żukkirū bihī fataḥnā ‘alaihim abwāba kulli syai'(in), ḥattā iżā fariḥū bimā ūtū akhażnāhum bagtatan fa iżā hum mublisūn(a).

    When they became oblivious to warnings, We showered them with everything they desired. But just as they became prideful of what they were given, We seized them by surprise, then they instantly fell into despair!

45. فَقُطِعَ دَابِرُ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْاۗ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَ

    Fa quṭi‘a dābirul-qaumil-lażīna ẓalamū, wal-ḥamdu lillāhi rabbil-‘ālamīn(a).

    So the wrongdoers were utterly uprooted. And all praise is for Allah—Lord of all worlds.

46. قُلْ اَرَاَيْتُمْ اِنْ اَخَذَ اللّٰهُ سَمْعَكُمْ وَاَبْصَارَكُمْ وَخَتَمَ عَلٰى قُلُوْبِكُمْ مَّنْ اِلٰهٌ غَيْرُ اللّٰهِ يَأْتِيْكُمْ بِهٖۗ اُنْظُرْ كَيْفَ نُصَرِّفُ الْاٰيٰتِ ثُمَّ هُمْ يَصْدِفُوْنَ

    Qul ara'aitum in akhażallāhu sam‘akum wa abṣārakum wa khatama ‘alā qulūbikum man ilāhun gairullāhi ya'tīkum bih(ī), unẓur kaifa nuṣarriful-āyāti ṡumma hum yaṣdifūn(a).

    Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Imagine if Allah were to take away your hearing or sight, or seal your hearts—who else other than Allah could restore it?” See ˹O Prophet˺ how We vary the signs, yet they still turn away.

47. قُلْ اَرَاَيْتَكُمْ اِنْ اَتٰىكُمْ عَذَابُ اللّٰهِ بَغْتَةً اَوْ جَهْرَةً هَلْ يُهْلَكُ اِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ

    Qul ara'aitakum in atākum ‘ażābullāhi bagtatan au jahratan hal yuhlaku illal-qaumuẓ-ẓālimūn(a).

    Ask, “Imagine if Allah’s punishment were to overwhelm you with or without warning—who would be destroyed other than the wrongdoers?”

48. وَمَا نُرْسِلُ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ اِلَّا مُبَشِّرِيْنَ وَمُنْذِرِيْنَۚ فَمَنْ اٰمَنَ وَاَصْلَحَ فَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُوْنَ

    Wa mā nursilul-mursalīna illā mubasysyirīna wa munżirīn(a), faman āmana wa aṣlaḥa falā khaufun ‘alaihim wa lā hum yaḥzanūn(a).

    We have sent messengers only as deliverers of good news and as warners. Whoever believes and does good, there will be no fear for them, nor will they grieve.

49. وَالَّذِيْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِنَا يَمَسُّهُمُ الْعَذَابُ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَفْسُقُوْنَ

    Wal-lażīna każżabū bi'āyātinā yamassuhumul-‘ażābu bimā kānū yafsuqūn(a).

    But those who deny Our signs will be afflicted with punishment for their rebelliousness.

50. قُلْ لَّآ اَقُوْلُ لَكُمْ عِنْدِيْ خَزَاۤىِٕنُ اللّٰهِ وَلَآ اَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ وَلَآ اَقُوْلُ لَكُمْ اِنِّيْ مَلَكٌۚ اِنْ اَتَّبِعُ اِلَّا مَا يُوْحٰٓى اِلَيَّۗ قُلْ هَلْ يَسْتَوِى الْاَعْمٰى وَالْبَصِيْرُۗ اَفَلَا تَتَفَكَّرُوْنَ ࣖ

    Qul lā aqūlu lakum ‘indī khazā'inullāhi wa lā a‘lamul-gaiba wa lā aqūlu lakum innī malak(un), in attabi‘u illā mā yūḥā ilayy(a), qul hal yastawil-a‘mā wal-baṣīr(u), afalā tatafakkarūn(a).

    Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I do not say to you that I possess Allah’s treasuries or know the unseen, nor do I claim to be an angel. I only follow what is revealed to me.” Say, “Are those blind ˹to the truth˺ equal to those who can see? Will you not then reflect?”

51. وَاَنْذِرْ بِهِ الَّذِيْنَ يَخَافُوْنَ اَنْ يُّحْشَرُوْٓا اِلٰى رَبِّهِمْ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِهٖ وَلِيٌّ وَّلَا شَفِيْعٌ لَّعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُوْنَ

    Wa anżir bihil-lażīna yakhāfūna ay yuḥsyarū ilā rabbihim laisa lahum min dūnihī waliyyuw wa lā syafī‘ul la‘allahum yattaqūn(a).

    Warn with this ˹Quran˺ those who are awed by the prospect of being gathered before their Lord—when they will have no protector or intercessor besides Him—so perhaps they will be mindful ˹of Him˺.

52. وَلَا تَطْرُدِ الَّذِيْنَ يَدْعُوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَدٰوةِ وَالْعَشِيِّ يُرِيْدُوْنَ وَجْهَهٗ ۗمَا عَلَيْكَ مِنْ حِسَابِهِمْ مِّنْ شَيْءٍ وَّمَا مِنْ حِسَابِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّنْ شَيْءٍ فَتَطْرُدَهُمْ فَتَكُوْنَ مِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ

    Wa lā taṭrudil-lażīna yad‘ūna rabbahum bil-gadāti wal-‘asyiyyi yurīdūna wajhah(ū), mā ‘alaika min ḥisābihim min syai'iw wa mā min ḥisābika ‘alaihim min syai'in fa taṭrudahum fa takūna minaẓ-ẓālimīn(a).

    ˹O Prophet!˺ Do not dismiss those ˹poor believers˺ who invoke their Lord morning and evening, seeking His pleasure. You are not accountable for them whatsoever, nor are they accountable for you. So do not dismiss them, or you will be one of the wrongdoers.

53. وَكَذٰلِكَ فَتَنَّا بَعْضَهُمْ بِبَعْضٍ لِّيَقُوْلُوْٓا اَهٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ مَنَّ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّنْۢ بَيْنِنَاۗ اَلَيْسَ اللّٰهُ بِاَعْلَمَ بِالشّٰكِرِيْنَ

    Wa każālika fatannā ba‘ḍahum biba‘ḍil liyaqūlū ahā'ulā'i mannallāhu ‘alaihim mim baininā, alaisallāhu bi'a‘lama bisy-syākirīn(a).

    In this way We have tested some by means of others, so those ˹disbelievers˺ may say, “Has Allah favoured these ˹poor believers˺ out of all of us?” Does Allah not best recognize the grateful?

54. وَاِذَا جَاۤءَكَ الَّذِيْنَ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِاٰيٰتِنَا فَقُلْ سَلٰمٌ عَلَيْكُمْ كَتَبَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلٰى نَفْسِهِ الرَّحْمَةَۙ اَنَّهٗ مَنْ عَمِلَ مِنْكُمْ سُوْۤءًاۢ بِجَهَالَةٍ ثُمَّ تَابَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ وَاَصْلَحَ فَاَنَّهٗ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ

    Wa iżā jā'akal-lażīna yu'minūna bi'āyātinā fa qul salāmun ‘alaikum kataba rabbukum ‘alā nafsihir-raḥmah(ta), annahū man ‘amila minkum sū'am bijahālatin ṡumma tāba mim ba‘dihī wa aṣlaḥa fa annahū gafūrur raḥīm(un).

    When the believers in Our revelations come to you, say, “Peace be upon you! Your Lord has taken upon Himself to be Merciful. Whoever among you commits evil ignorantly ˹or recklessly˺ then repents afterwards and mends their ways, then Allah is truly All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”

55. وَكَذٰلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الْاٰيٰتِ وَلِتَسْتَبِيْنَ سَبِيْلُ الْمُجْرِمِيْنَ ࣖ

    Wa każālika nufaṣṣilul-āyāti wa litastabīna sabīlal-mujrimīn(a).

    This is how We make Our signs clear, so the way of the wicked may become distinct.

56. قُلْ اِنِّيْ نُهِيْتُ اَنْ اَعْبُدَ الَّذِيْنَ تَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ ۗ قُلْ لَّآ اَتَّبِعُ اَهْوَاۤءَكُمْۙ قَدْ ضَلَلْتُ اِذًا وَّمَآ اَنَا۠ مِنَ الْمُهْتَدِيْنَ

    Qul innī nuhītu an a‘budal-lażīna tad‘ūna min dūnillāh(i), qul lā attabi‘u ahwā'akum, qad ḍalaltu iżaw wa mā ana minal-muhtadīn(a).

    Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I have been forbidden to worship those you invoke besides Allah.” Say, “I will not follow your desires, for I then would certainly be astray and not one of those ˹rightly˺ guided.”

57. قُلْ اِنِّيْ عَلٰى بَيِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّيْ وَكَذَّبْتُمْ بِهٖۗ مَا عِنْدِيْ مَا تَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَ بِهٖۗ اِنِ الْحُكْمُ اِلَّا لِلّٰهِ ۗيَقُصُّ الْحَقَّ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ الْفٰصِلِيْنَ

    Qul innī ‘alā bayyinatim mir rabbī wa każżabtum bih(ī), mā ‘indī mā tasta‘jilūna bih(ī), inil-ḥukmu illā lillāh(i), yaquṣṣul-ḥaqqa wa huwa khairul-fāṣilīn(a).

    Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Indeed, I stand on a clear proof from my Lord—yet you have denied it. That ˹torment˺ you seek to hasten is not within my power. It is only Allah Who decides ˹its time˺. He declares the truth. And He is the Best of Judges.”

58. قُلْ لَّوْ اَنَّ عِنْدِيْ مَا تَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَ بِهٖ لَقُضِيَ الْاَمْرُ بَيْنِيْ وَبَيْنَكُمْ ۗوَاللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِالظّٰلِمِيْنَ

    Qul lau anna ‘indī mā tasta‘jilūna bihī laquḍiyal-amru bainī wa bainakum, wallāhu a‘lamu biẓ-ẓālimīn(a).

    Say ˹also˺, “If what you seek to hasten were within my power, the matter between us would have already been settled. But Allah knows the wrongdoers best.”

59. ۞ وَعِنْدَهٗ مَفَاتِحُ الْغَيْبِ لَا يَعْلَمُهَآ اِلَّا هُوَۗ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِى الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِۗ وَمَا تَسْقُطُ مِنْ وَّرَقَةٍ اِلَّا يَعْلَمُهَا وَلَا حَبَّةٍ فِيْ ظُلُمٰتِ الْاَرْضِ وَلَا رَطْبٍ وَّلَا يَابِسٍ اِلَّا فِيْ كِتٰبٍ مُّبِيْنٍ

    Wa ‘indahū mafātiḥul-gaibi lā ya‘lamuhā illā huw(a), wa ya‘lamu mā fil-barri wal-baḥr(i), wa mā tasquṭu miw waraqatin illā ya‘lamuhā wa lā ḥabbatin fī ẓulumātil-arḍi wa lā raṭbiw wa lā yābisin illā fī kitābim mubīn(in).

    With Him are the keys of the unseen—no one knows them except Him. And He knows what is in the land and sea. Not even a leaf falls without His knowledge, nor a grain in the darkness of the earth or anything—green or dry—but is ˹written˺ in a perfect Record.

60. وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ يَتَوَفّٰىكُمْ بِالَّيْلِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا جَرَحْتُمْ بِالنَّهَارِ ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُكُمْ فِيْهِ لِيُقْضٰٓى اَجَلٌ مُّسَمًّىۚ ثُمَّ اِلَيْهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ ࣖ

    Wa huwal-lażī yatawaffākum bil-laili wa ya‘lamu mā jaraḥtum bin-nahāri ṡumma yab‘aṡukum fīhi liyuqḍā ajalum musammā(n), ṡumma ilaihi marji‘ukum ṡumma yunabbi'ukum bimā kuntum ta‘malūn(a).

    He is the One Who calls back your souls by night and knows what you do by day, then revives you daily to complete your appointed term. To Him is your ˹ultimate˺ return, then He will inform you of what you used to do.

61. وَهُوَ الْقَاهِرُ فَوْقَ عِبَادِهٖ وَيُرْسِلُ عَلَيْكُمْ حَفَظَةً ۗحَتّٰٓى اِذَا جَاۤءَ اَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ تَوَفَّتْهُ رُسُلُنَا وَهُمْ لَا يُفَرِّطُوْنَ

    Wa huwal-qāhiru fauqa ‘ibādihī wa yursilu ‘alaikum ḥafaẓah(tan), ḥattā iżā jā'a aḥadakumul-mautu tawaffathu rusulunā wa hum lā yufarriṭūn(a).

    He reigns supreme over all of His creation, and sends recording-angels, watching over you. When death comes to any of you, Our angels take their soul, never neglecting this duty.

62. ثُمَّ رُدُّوْٓا اِلَى اللّٰهِ مَوْلٰىهُمُ الْحَقِّۗ اَلَا لَهُ الْحُكْمُ وَهُوَ اَسْرَعُ الْحٰسِبِيْنَ

    Ṡumma ruddū ilallāhi maulāhumul-ḥaqq(i), alā lahul-ḥukmu wa huwa asra‘ul-ḥāsibīn(a).

    Then they are ˹all˺ returned to Allah—their True Master. Judgment is His ˹alone˺. And He is the Swiftest Reckoner.

63. قُلْ مَنْ يُّنَجِّيْكُمْ مِّنْ ظُلُمٰتِ الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ تَدْعُوْنَهٗ تَضَرُّعًا وَّخُفْيَةً ۚ لَىِٕنْ اَنْجٰىنَا مِنْ هٰذِهٖ لَنَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الشّٰكِرِيْنَ

    Qul may yunajjīkum min ẓulumātil-barri wal-baḥri tad‘ūnahū taḍarru‘aw wa khufyah(tan), la'in anjānā min hāżihī lanakūnanna minasy- syākirīn(a).

    Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Who rescues you from the darkest times on land and at sea? He ˹alone˺ you call upon with humility, openly and secretly: “If You rescue us from this, we will be ever grateful.”

64. قُلِ اللّٰهُ يُنَجِّيْكُمْ مِّنْهَا وَمِنْ كُلِّ كَرْبٍ ثُمَّ اَنْتُمْ تُشْرِكُوْنَ

    Qulillāhu yunajjīkum minhā wa min kulli karbin ṡumma antum tusyrikūn(a).

    Say, “˹Only˺ Allah rescues you from this and any other distress, yet you associate others with Him ˹in worship˺.”

65. قُلْ هُوَ الْقَادِرُ عَلٰٓى اَنْ يَّبْعَثَ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابًا مِّنْ فَوْقِكُمْ اَوْ مِنْ تَحْتِ اَرْجُلِكُمْ اَوْ يَلْبِسَكُمْ شِيَعًا وَّيُذِيْقَ بَعْضَكُمْ بَأْسَ بَعْضٍۗ اُنْظُرْ كَيْفَ نُصَرِّفُ الْاٰيٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَفْقَهُوْنَ

    Qul huwal-qādiru ‘alā ay yab‘aṡa ‘alaikum ‘ażābam min fauqikum au min taḥti arjulikum au yalbisakum syiya‘aw wa yużīqa ba‘ḍakum ba'sa ba‘ḍ(in), unẓur kaifa nuṣarriful-āyāti la‘allahum yafqahūn(a).

    Say, “He ˹alone˺ has the power to unleash upon you a torment from above or below you or split you into ˹conflicting˺ factions and make you taste the violence of one another." See how We vary the signs, so perhaps they will comprehend.

66. وَكَذَّبَ بِهٖ قَوْمُكَ وَهُوَ الْحَقُّۗ قُلْ لَّسْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِوَكِيْلٍ ۗ

    Wa każżaba bihī qaumuka wa huwal-ḥaqq(u), qul lastu ‘alaikum biwakīl(in).

    Still your people ˹O Prophet˺ have rejected this ˹Quran˺, although it is the truth. Say, “I am not a keeper over you.”

67. لِكُلِّ نَبَاٍ مُّسْتَقَرٌّ وَّسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُوْنَ

    Likulli naba'im mustaqarruw wa saufa ta‘lamūn(a).

    Every ˹destined˺ matter has a ˹set˺ time to transpire. And you will soon come to know.

68. وَاِذَا رَاَيْتَ الَّذِيْنَ يَخُوْضُوْنَ فِيْٓ اٰيٰتِنَا فَاَعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ حَتّٰى يَخُوْضُوْا فِيْ حَدِيْثٍ غَيْرِهٖۗ وَاِمَّا يُنْسِيَنَّكَ الشَّيْطٰنُ فَلَا تَقْعُدْ بَعْدَ الذِّكْرٰى مَعَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ

    Wa iżā ra'aital-lażīna yakhūḍūna fī āyātinā fa a‘riḍ ‘anhum ḥattā yakhūḍū fī ḥadīṡin gairih(ī), wa immā yunsiyannakasy-syaiṭānu falā taq‘ud ba‘daż-żikrā ma‘al-qaumiẓ-ẓālimīn(a).

    And when you come across those who ridicule Our revelations, do not sit with them unless they engage in a different topic. Should Satan make you forget, then once you remember, do not ˹continue to˺ sit with the wrongdoing people.

69. وَمَا عَلَى الَّذِيْنَ يَتَّقُوْنَ مِنْ حِسَابِهِمْ مِّنْ شَيْءٍ وَّلٰكِنْ ذِكْرٰى لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُوْنَ

    Wa mā ‘alal-lażīna yattaqūna min ḥisābihim min syai'iw wa lākin żikrā la‘allahum yattaqūn(a).

    Those mindful ˹of Allah˺ will not be accountable for those ˹who ridicule it˺ whatsoever—their duty is to advise, so perhaps the ridiculers will abstain.

70. وَذَرِ الَّذِيْنَ اتَّخَذُوْا دِيْنَهُمْ لَعِبًا وَّلَهْوًا وَّغَرَّتْهُمُ الْحَيٰوةُ الدُّنْيَا وَذَكِّرْ بِهٖٓ اَنْ تُبْسَلَ نَفْسٌۢ بِمَا كَسَبَتْۖ لَيْسَ لَهَا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ وَلِيٌّ وَّلَا شَفِيْعٌ ۚوَاِنْ تَعْدِلْ كُلَّ عَدْلٍ لَّا يُؤْخَذْ مِنْهَاۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ اُبْسِلُوْا بِمَا كَسَبُوْا لَهُمْ شَرَابٌ مِّنْ حَمِيْمٍ وَّعَذَابٌ اَلِيْمٌ ۢبِمَا كَانُوْا يَكْفُرُوْنَ ࣖ

    Wa żaril-lażīnattakhażū dīnahum la‘ibaw wa lahwaw wa garrathumul-ḥayātud-dun-yā wa żakkir bihī an tubsala nafsum bimā kasabat, laisa lahā min dūnillāhi waliyyuw wa lā syafī‘(un), wa in ta‘dil kulla ‘adlil lā yu'khaż minhā, ulā'ikal-lażīna ubsilū bimā kasabū lahum syarābum min ḥamīmiw wa ‘ażābun alīmum bimā kānū yakfurūn(a).

    And leave those who take this faith ˹of Islam˺ as mere play and amusement and are deluded by ˹their˺ worldly life. Yet remind them by this ˹Quran˺, so no one should be ruined for their misdeeds. They will have no protector or intercessor other than Allah. Even if they were to offer every ˹possible˺ ransom, none will be accepted from them. Those are the ones who will be ruined for their misdeeds. They will have a boiling drink and painful punishment for their disbelief.

71. قُلْ اَنَدْعُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَنْفَعُنَا وَلَا يَضُرُّنَا وَنُرَدُّ عَلٰٓى اَعْقَابِنَا بَعْدَ اِذْ هَدٰىنَا اللّٰهُ كَالَّذِى اسْتَهْوَتْهُ الشَّيٰطِيْنُ فِى الْاَرْضِ حَيْرَانَ لَهٗٓ اَصْحٰبٌ يَّدْعُوْنَهٗٓ اِلَى الْهُدَى ائْتِنَا ۗ قُلْ اِنَّ هُدَى اللّٰهِ هُوَ الْهُدٰىۗ وَاُمِرْنَا لِنُسْلِمَ لِرَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَۙ

    Qul anad‘ū min dūnillāhi mā lā yanfa‘unā wa lā yaḍurrunā wa nuraddu ‘alā a‘qābinā ba‘da iż hadānallāhu kal-lażīstahwathusy-syayāṭīnu fil-arḍi ḥairāna lahū aṣḥābuy yad‘ūnahū ilal-huda'tinā, qul inna hudallāhi huwal-hudā, wa umirnā linuslima lirabbil-‘ālamīn(a).

    Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Should we invoke, other than Allah, those ˹idols˺ which cannot benefit or harm us, and turn back to disbelief after Allah has guided us? ˹If we do so, we will be˺ like those disoriented by devils in the wilderness, while their companions call them to guidance, ˹saying˺, ‘Come to us!’ Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Allah’s guidance is the ˹only˺ true guidance. And we are commanded to submit to the Lord of all worlds,

72. وَاَنْ اَقِيْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاتَّقُوْهُۗ وَهُوَ الَّذِيْٓ اِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُوْنَ

    Wa aqīmuṣ-ṣalāta wattaqūh(u), wa huwal-lażī ilaihi tuḥsyarūn(a).

    establish prayer, and be mindful of Him. To Him you will all be gathered together.

73. وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّۗ وَيَوْمَ يَقُوْلُ كُنْ فَيَكُوْنُۚ قَوْلُهُ الْحَقُّۗ وَلَهُ الْمُلْكُ يَوْمَ يُنْفَخُ فِى الصُّوْرِۗ عٰلِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ وَهُوَ الْحَكِيْمُ الْخَبِيْرُ

    Wa huwal-lażī khalaqas-samāwāti wal-arḍa bil-ḥaqq(i), wa yauma yaqūlu kun fa yakūn(u), qauluhul-ḥaqq(u), wa lahul-mulku yauma yunfakhu fiṣ-ṣūr(i), ‘ālimul-gaibi wasy-syahādati wa huwal-ḥakīmul-khabīr(u).

    He is the One Who created the heavens and the earth in truth. On the Day ˹of Judgment˺ He will say, ‘Be!’ And there will be! His command is truth. All authority is His ˹alone˺ on the Day the Trumpet will be blown. He is the Knower of all—seen or unseen. And He is the All-Wise, All-Aware.”

74. ۞ وَاِذْ قَالَ اِبْرٰهِيْمُ لِاَبِيْهِ اٰزَرَ اَتَتَّخِذُ اَصْنَامًا اٰلِهَةً ۚاِنِّيْٓ اَرٰىكَ وَقَوْمَكَ فِيْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيْنٍ

    Wa iż qāla ibrāhīmu li'abīhi āzara atattakhiżu aṣnāman ālihah(tan), innī arāka wa qaumaka fī ḍalālim mubīn(in).

    And ˹remember˺ when Abraham said to his father, Ȃzar, “Do you take idols as gods? It is clear to me that you and your people are entirely misguided.”

75. وَكَذٰلِكَ نُرِيْٓ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ مَلَكُوْتَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَلِيَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُوْقِنِيْنَ

    Wa każālika nurī ibrāhīma malakūtas-samāwāti wal-arḍi wa liyakūna minal-mūqinīn(a).

    We also showed Abraham the wonders of the heavens and the earth, so he would be sure in faith.

76. فَلَمَّا جَنَّ عَلَيْهِ الَّيْلُ رَاٰ كَوْكَبًا ۗقَالَ هٰذَا رَبِّيْۚ فَلَمَّآ اَفَلَ قَالَ لَآ اُحِبُّ الْاٰفِلِيْنَ

    Falammā janna ‘alaihil-lailu ra'ā kaukabā(n), qāla hāżā rabbī, falammā afala qāla lā uḥibbul-āfilīn(a).

    When the night grew dark upon him, he saw a star and said, “This is my Lord!” But when it set, he said, “I do not love things that set.”

77. فَلَمَّا رَاَ الْقَمَرَ بَازِغًا قَالَ هٰذَا رَبِّيْ ۚفَلَمَّآ اَفَلَ قَالَ لَىِٕنْ لَّمْ يَهْدِنِيْ رَبِّيْ لَاَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الضَّاۤلِّيْنَ

    Falammā ra'al-qamara bāzigan qāla hāżā rabbī, falammā afala qāla la'illam yahdinī rabbī la'akūnanna minal-qaumiḍ-ḍāllīn(a).

    Then when he saw the moon rising, he said, “This one is my Lord!” But when it disappeared, he said, “If my Lord does not guide me, I will certainly be one of the misguided people.”

78. فَلَمَّا رَاَ الشَّمْسَ بَازِغَةً قَالَ هٰذَا رَبِّيْ هٰذَآ اَكْبَرُۚ فَلَمَّآ اَفَلَتْ قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اِنِّيْ بَرِيْۤءٌ مِّمَّا تُشْرِكُوْنَ

    Falammā ra'asy-syamsa bāzigatan qāla hāżā rabbī hāżā akbar(u), falammā afalat qāla yā qaumi innī barī'um mimmā tusyrikūn(a).

    Then when he saw the sun shining, he said, “This must be my Lord—it is the greatest!” But again when it set, he declared, “O my people! I totally reject whatever you associate ˹with Allah in worship˺.

79. اِنِّيْ وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِيَ لِلَّذِيْ فَطَرَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ حَنِيْفًا وَّمَآ اَنَا۠ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَۚ

    Innī wajjahtu wajhiya lil-lażī faṭaras-samāwāti wal-arḍa ḥanīfaw wa mā ana minal-musyrikīn(a).

    I have turned my face towards the One Who has originated the heavens and the earth—being upright—and I am not one of the polytheists.”

80. وَحَاۤجَّهٗ قَوْمُهٗ ۗقَالَ اَتُحَاۤجُّوْۤنِّيْ فِى اللّٰهِ وَقَدْ هَدٰىنِۗ وَلَآ اَخَافُ مَا تُشْرِكُوْنَ بِهٖٓ اِلَّآ اَنْ يَّشَاۤءَ رَبِّيْ شَيْـًٔا ۗوَسِعَ رَبِّيْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا ۗ اَفَلَا تَتَذَكَّرُوْنَ

    Wa ḥājjahū qaumuh(ū), qāla atuḥājjūnnī fillāhi wa qad hadān(i), wa lā akhāfu mā tusyrikūna bihī illā ay yasyā'a rabbī syai'ā(n), wasi‘a rabbī kulla syai'in ‘ilmā(n), afalā tatażakkarūn(a).

    And his people argued with him. He responded, “Are you arguing with me about Allah, while He has guided me? I am not afraid of whatever ˹idols˺ you associate with Him—˹none can harm me,˺ unless my Lord so wills. My Lord encompasses everything in ˹His˺ knowledge. Will you not be mindful?

81. وَكَيْفَ اَخَافُ مَآ اَشْرَكْتُمْ وَلَا تَخَافُوْنَ اَنَّكُمْ اَشْرَكْتُمْ بِاللّٰهِ مَا لَمْ يُنَزِّلْ بِهٖ عَلَيْكُمْ سُلْطٰنًا ۗفَاَيُّ الْفَرِيْقَيْنِ اَحَقُّ بِالْاَمْنِۚ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَۘ

    Wa kaifa akhāfu mā asyraktum wa lā takhāfūna annakum asyraktum billāhi mā lam yunazzil bihī ‘alaikum sulṭānā(n), fa ayyul-farīqaini aḥaqqu bil-amn(i), in kuntum ta‘lamūn(a).

    And how should I fear your associate-gods, while you have no fear in associating ˹others˺ with Allah—a practice He has never authorized? Which side has more right to security? ˹Tell me˺ if you really know!”

82. اَلَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَلَمْ يَلْبِسُوْٓا اِيْمَانَهُمْ بِظُلْمٍ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمُ الْاَمْنُ وَهُمْ مُّهْتَدُوْنَ ࣖ

    Al-lażīna āmanū wa lam yalbisū īmānahum biẓulmin ulā'ika lahumul-amnu wa hum muhtadūn(a).

    It is ˹only˺ those who are faithful and do not tarnish their faith with falsehood who are guaranteed security and are ˹rightly˺ guided.

83. وَتِلْكَ حُجَّتُنَآ اٰتَيْنٰهَآ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ عَلٰى قَوْمِهٖۗ نَرْفَعُ دَرَجٰتٍ مَّنْ نَّشَاۤءُۗ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ حَكِيْمٌ عَلِيْمٌ

    Wa tilka ḥujjatunā ātaināhā ibrāhīma ‘alā qaumih(ī), narfa‘u darajātim man nasyā'(u), inna rabbaka ḥakīmun ‘alīm(un).

    This was the argument We gave Abraham against his people. We elevate in rank whoever We please. Surely your Lord is All-Wise, All-Knowing.

84. وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗٓ اِسْحٰقَ وَيَعْقُوْبَۗ كُلًّا هَدَيْنَا وَنُوْحًا هَدَيْنَا مِنْ قَبْلُ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهٖ دَاوٗدَ وَسُلَيْمٰنَ وَاَيُّوْبَ وَيُوْسُفَ وَمُوْسٰى وَهٰرُوْنَ ۗوَكَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَۙ

    Wa wahabnā lahū isḥāqa wa ya‘qūb(a), kullan hadainā wa nūḥan hadainā min qablu wa min żurriyyatihī dāwūda wa sulaimāna wa ayyūba wa yūsufa wa mūsā wa hārūna wa każālika najzil-muḥsinīn(a).

    And We blessed him with Isaac and Jacob. We guided them all as We previously guided Noah and those among his descendants: David, Solomon, Job, Joseph, Moses, and Aaron. This is how We reward the good-doers.

85. وَزَكَرِيَّا وَيَحْيٰى وَعِيْسٰى وَاِلْيَاسَۗ كُلٌّ مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَۙ

    Wa zakariyyā wa yaḥyā wa ‘īsā wa ilyās(a), kullum minaṣ-ṣāliḥīn(a).

    Likewise, ˹We guided˺ Zachariah, John, Jesus, and Elias, who were all of the righteous.

86. وَاِسْمٰعِيْلَ وَالْيَسَعَ وَيُوْنُسَ وَلُوْطًاۗ وَكُلًّا فَضَّلْنَا عَلَى الْعٰلَمِيْنَۙ

    Wa ismā‘īla wal-yasa‘a wa yūnusa wa lūṭā(n), wa kullan faḍḍalnā ‘alal-‘ālamīn(a).

    ˹We also guided˺ Ishmael, Elisha, Jonah, and Lot, favouring each over other people ˹of their time˺.

87. وَمِنْ اٰبَاۤىِٕهِمْ وَذُرِّيّٰتِهِمْ وَاِخْوَانِهِمْ ۚوَاجْتَبَيْنٰهُمْ وَهَدَيْنٰهُمْ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ

    Wa min ābā'ihim wa żurriyyātihim wa ikhwānihim, wajtabaināhum wa hadaināhum ilā ṣirāṭim mustaqīm(in).

    And ˹We favoured˺ some of their forefathers, their descendants, and their brothers. We chose them and guided them to the Straight Path.

88. ذٰلِكَ هُدَى اللّٰهِ يَهْدِيْ بِهٖ مَنْ يَّشَاۤءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖ ۗوَلَوْ اَشْرَكُوْا لَحَبِطَ عَنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ

    Żālika hudallāhi yahdī bihī may yasyā'u min ‘ibādih(ī), wa lau asyrakū laḥabiṭa ‘anhum mā kānū ya‘malūn(a).

    This is Allah’s guidance with which He guides whoever He wills of His servants. Had they associated others with Him ˹in worship˺, their ˹good˺ deeds would have been wasted.

89. اُولٰۤىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰتَيْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ وَالْحُكْمَ وَالنُّبُوَّةَ ۚفَاِنْ يَّكْفُرْ بِهَا هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ فَقَدْ وَكَّلْنَا بِهَا قَوْمًا لَّيْسُوْا بِهَا بِكٰفِرِيْنَ

    Ulā'ikal-lażīna ātaināhumul-kitāba wal-ḥukma wan-nubuwwah(ta), fa iy yakfur bihā hā'ulā'i faqad wakkalnā bihā qaumal laisū bihā bikāfirīn(a).

    Those were the ones to whom We gave the Scripture, wisdom, and prophethood. But if these ˹pagans˺ disbelieve in this ˹message˺, then We have already entrusted it to a people who will never disbelieve in it.

90. اُولٰۤىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ هَدَى اللّٰهُ فَبِهُدٰىهُمُ اقْتَدِهْۗ قُلْ لَّآ اَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ اَجْرًاۗ اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا ذِكْرٰى لِلْعٰلَمِيْنَ ࣖ

    Ulā'ikal-lażīna hadallāhu fa bihudāūhumuqtadih, qul lā as'alukum ‘alaihi ajrā(n), in huwa illā żikrā lil-‘ālamīn(a).

    These ˹prophets˺ were ˹rightly˺ guided by Allah, so follow their guidance. Say, “I ask no reward of you for this ˹Quran˺—it is a reminder to the whole world.”

91. وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللّٰهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهٖٓ اِذْ قَالُوْا مَآ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى بَشَرٍ مِّنْ شَيْءٍۗ قُلْ مَنْ اَنْزَلَ الْكِتٰبَ الَّذِيْ جَاۤءَ بِهٖ مُوْسٰى نُوْرًا وَّهُدًى لِّلنَّاسِ تَجْعَلُوْنَهٗ قَرَاطِيْسَ تُبْدُوْنَهَا وَتُخْفُوْنَ كَثِيْرًاۚ وَعُلِّمْتُمْ مَّا لَمْ تَعْلَمُوْٓا اَنْتُمْ وَلَآ اٰبَاۤؤُكُمْ ۗقُلِ اللّٰهُ ۙثُمَّ ذَرْهُمْ فِيْ خَوْضِهِمْ يَلْعَبُوْنَ

    Wa mā qadarullāha ḥaqqa qadrihī iż qālū mā anzalallāhu ‘alā basyarim min syai'(in), qul man anzalal-kitābal-lażī jā'a bihī mūsā nūraw wa hudal lin-nāsi taj‘alūnahū qarāṭīsa tubdūnahā wa tukhfūna kaṡīrā(n), wa ‘ullimtum mā lam ta‘lamū antum wa lā ābā'ukum, qulillāh(u), ṡumma żarhum fī khauḍihim yal‘abūn(a).

    And they have not shown Allah His proper reverence when they said, “Allah has revealed nothing to any human being.” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Who then revealed the Book brought forth by Moses as a light and guidance for people, which you split into separate sheets—revealing some and hiding much? You have been taught ˹through this Quran˺ what neither you nor your forefathers knew.” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Allah ˹revealed it˺!” Then leave them to amuse themselves with falsehood.

92. وَهٰذَا كِتٰبٌ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ مُبٰرَكٌ مُّصَدِّقُ الَّذِيْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَلِتُنْذِرَ اُمَّ الْقُرٰى وَمَنْ حَوْلَهَاۗ وَالَّذِيْنَ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِهٖ وَهُمْ عَلٰى صَلَاتِهِمْ يُحٰفِظُوْنَ

    Wa hāżā kitābun anzalnāhu mubārakum muṣaddiqul-lażī baina yadaihi wa litunżira ummal-qurā wa man ḥaulahā, wal-lażīna yu'minūna bil-ākhirati yu'minūna bihī wa hum ‘alā ṣalātihim yuḥāfiẓūn(a).

    This is a blessed Book which We have revealed—confirming what came before it—so you may warn the Mother of Cities and everyone around it. Those who believe in the Hereafter ˹truly˺ believe in it and guard their prayers.

93. وَمَنْ اَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ افْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا اَوْ قَالَ اُوْحِيَ اِلَيَّ وَلَمْ يُوْحَ اِلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ وَّمَنْ قَالَ سَاُنْزِلُ مِثْلَ مَآ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ ۗوَلَوْ تَرٰٓى اِذِ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ فِيْ غَمَرٰتِ الْمَوْتِ وَالْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُ بَاسِطُوْٓا اَيْدِيْهِمْۚ اَخْرِجُوْٓا اَنْفُسَكُمْۗ اَلْيَوْمَ تُجْزَوْنَ عَذَابَ الْهُوْنِ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَقُوْلُوْنَ عَلَى اللّٰهِ غَيْرَ الْحَقِّ وَكُنْتُمْ عَنْ اٰيٰتِهٖ تَسْتَكْبِرُوْنَ

    Wa man aẓlamu mimmaniftarā ‘alallāhi każiban au qāla ūḥiya ilayya wa lam yūḥa ilaihi syai'uw wa man qāla sa'unzilu miṡla mā anzalallāh(u), wa lau tarā iżiẓ-ẓālimūna fī gamarātil-mauti wal-malā'ikatu bāsiṭū aidīhim, akhirjū anfusakum, al-yauma tujzauna ‘ażābal-hūni bimā kuntum taqūlūna ‘alallāhi gairal-ḥaqqi wa kuntum ‘an āyātihī tastakbirūn(a).

    Who does more wrong than the one who fabricates lies against Allah or claims, “I have received revelations!”—although nothing was revealed to them—or the one who says, “I can reveal the like of Allah’s revelations!”? If you ˹O Prophet˺ could only see the wrongdoers in the throes of death while the angels are stretching out their hands ˹saying˺, “Give up your souls! Today you will be rewarded with the torment of disgrace for telling lies about Allah and for being arrogant towards His revelations!”

94. وَلَقَدْ جِئْتُمُوْنَا فُرَادٰى كَمَا خَلَقْنٰكُمْ اَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَّتَرَكْتُمْ مَّا خَوَّلْنٰكُمْ وَرَاۤءَ ظُهُوْرِكُمْۚ وَمَا نَرٰى مَعَكُمْ شُفَعَاۤءَكُمُ الَّذِيْنَ زَعَمْتُمْ اَنَّهُمْ فِيْكُمْ شُرَكٰۤؤُا ۗ لَقَدْ تَّقَطَّعَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَضَلَّ عَنْكُمْ مَّا كُنْتُمْ تَزْعُمُوْنَ ࣖ

    Wa laqad ji'tumūnā furādā kamā khalaqnākum awwala marratiw wa taraktum mā khawwalnākum warā'a ẓuhūrikum, wa mā narā ma‘akum syufa‘ā'akumul-lażīna za‘amtum annahum fīkum syurakā'(u), laqat taqaṭṭa‘a bainakum wa ḍalla ‘ankum mā kuntum taz‘umūn(a).

    ˹Today˺ you have come back to Us all alone as We created you the first time—leaving behind everything We have provided you with. We do not see your intercessors with you—those you claimed were Allah’s partners ˹in worship˺. All your ties have been broken and all your claims have let you down.”

95. ۞ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ فَالِقُ الْحَبِّ وَالنَّوٰىۗ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَمُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتِ مِنَ الْحَيِّ ۗذٰلِكُمُ اللّٰهُ فَاَنّٰى تُؤْفَكُوْنَ

    Innallāha fāliqul-ḥabbi wan-nawā, yukhrijul-ḥayya minal-mayyiti wa mukhrijul-mayyiti minal-ḥayy(i), żālikumullāhu fa annā tu'fakūn(a).

    Indeed, Allah is the One Who causes seeds and fruit stones to sprout. He brings forth the living from the dead and the dead from the living. That is Allah! How can you then be deluded ˹from the truth˺?

96. فَالِقُ الْاِصْبَاحِۚ وَجَعَلَ الَّيْلَ سَكَنًا وَّالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ حُسْبَانًا ۗذٰلِكَ تَقْدِيْرُ الْعَزِيْزِ الْعَلِيْمِ

    Fāliqul-iṣbāḥ(i), wa ja‘alal-laila sakanaw wasy-syamsa wal-qamara ḥusbānā(n), żālika taqdīrul-‘azīzil-‘alīm(i).

    He causes the dawn to break, and has made the night for rest and ˹made˺ the sun and the moon ˹to travel˺ with precision. That is the design of the Almighty, All-Knowing.

97. وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ النُّجُوْمَ لِتَهْتَدُوْا بِهَا فِيْ ظُلُمٰتِ الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِۗ قَدْ فَصَّلْنَا الْاٰيٰتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَّعْلَمُوْنَ

    Wa huwal-lażī ja‘ala lakumun-nujūma litahtadū bihā fī ẓulumātil-barri wal-baḥr(i), qad faṣṣalnal-āyāti liqaumiy ya‘lamūn(a).

    And He is the One Who has made the stars as your guide through the darkness of land and sea. We have already made the signs clear for people who know.

98. وَهُوَ الَّذِيْٓ اَنْشَاَكُمْ مِّنْ نَّفْسٍ وَّاحِدَةٍ فَمُسْتَقَرٌّ وَّمُسْتَوْدَعٌ ۗقَدْ فَصَّلْنَا الْاٰيٰتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَّفْقَهُوْنَ

    Wa huwal-lażī ansya'akum min nafsiw wāḥidatin fa mustaqarruw wa mustauda‘(un), qad faṣṣalnal-āyāti liqaumiy yafqahūn(a).

    And He is the One Who originated you all from a single soul, then assigned you a place to live and another to ˹be laid to˺ rest. We have already made the signs clear for people who comprehend.

99. وَهُوَ الَّذِيْٓ اَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاۤءِ مَاۤءًۚ فَاَخْرَجْنَا بِهٖ نَبَاتَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَاَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهُ خَضِرًا نُّخْرِجُ مِنْهُ حَبًّا مُّتَرَاكِبًاۚ وَمِنَ النَّخْلِ مِنْ طَلْعِهَا قِنْوَانٌ دَانِيَةٌ وَّجَنّٰتٍ مِّنْ اَعْنَابٍ وَّالزَّيْتُوْنَ وَالرُّمَّانَ مُشْتَبِهًا وَّغَيْرَ مُتَشَابِهٍۗ اُنْظُرُوْٓا اِلٰى ثَمَرِهٖٓ اِذَٓا اَثْمَرَ وَيَنْعِهٖ ۗاِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكُمْ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يُّؤْمِنُوْنَ

    Wa huwal-lażī anzala minas-samā'i mā'ā(n), fa akhrajnā bihī nabāta kulli syai'in fa akhrajnā minhu khaḍiran nukhriju minhu ḥabbam mutarākibā(n), wa minan nakhli min ṭal‘ihā qinwānun dāniyatuw wa jannātim min a‘nābiw waz-zaitūna war-rummāna musytabihaw wa gaira mutasyābih(in), unẓurū ilā ṡamarihī iżā aṡmara wa yan‘ih(ī), inna fī żālikum la'āyātil liqaumiy yu'minūn(a).

    And He is the One Who sends down rain from the sky—causing all kinds of plants to grow—producing green stalks from which We bring forth clustered grain. And from palm trees come clusters of dates hanging within reach. ˹There are˺ also gardens of grapevines, olives, and pomegranates, similar ˹in shape˺ but dissimilar ˹in taste˺. Look at their fruit as it yields and ripens! Indeed, in these are signs for people who believe.

100. وَجَعَلُوْا لِلّٰهِ شُرَكَاۤءَ الْجِنَّ وَخَلَقَهُمْ وَخَرَقُوْا لَهٗ بَنِيْنَ وَبَنٰتٍۢ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍۗ سُبْحٰنَهٗ وَتَعٰلٰى عَمَّا يَصِفُوْنَ ࣖ

     Wa ja‘alū lillāhi syurakā'al-jinna wa khalaqahum wa kharaqū lahū banīna wa banātim bigairi ‘ilm(in), subḥānahū wa ta‘ālā ‘ammā yaṣifūn(a).

     Yet they associate the jinn with Allah ˹in worship˺, even though He created them, and they falsely attribute to Him sons and daughters out of ignorance. Glorified and Exalted is He above what they claim!

101. بَدِيْعُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ اَنّٰى يَكُوْنُ لَهٗ وَلَدٌ وَّلَمْ تَكُنْ لَّهٗ صَاحِبَةٌ ۗوَخَلَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍۚ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيْمٌ

     Badī‘us-samāwāti wal-arḍ(i), annā yakūnu lahū waladuw wa lam takul lahū ṣāḥibah(tun), wa khalaqa kulla syai'(in), wa huwa bikulli syai'in‘alīm(un).

     ˹He is˺ the Originator of the heavens and earth. How could He have children when He has no mate? He created all things and has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of everything.

102. ذٰلِكُمُ اللّٰهُ رَبُّكُمْۚ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۚ خَالِقُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَاعْبُدُوْهُ ۚوَهُوَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَّكِيْلٌ

     Żālikumullāhu rabbukum, lā ilāha illā huw(a), khāliqu kulli syai'in fa‘budūh(u), wa huwa ‘alā kulli syai'iw wakīl(un).

     That is Allah—your Lord! There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him. ˹He is˺ the Creator of all things, so worship Him ˹alone˺. And He is the Maintainer of everything.

103. لَا تُدْرِكُهُ الْاَبْصَارُ وَهُوَ يُدْرِكُ الْاَبْصَارَۚ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيْفُ الْخَبِيْرُ

     Lā tudrikuhul-abṣāru wa huwa yudrikul-abṣār(a), wa huwal-laṭīful-khabīr(u).

     No vision can encompass Him, but He encompasses all vision. For He is the Most Subtle, All-Aware.

104. قَدْ جَاۤءَكُمْ بَصَاۤىِٕرُ مِنْ رَّبِّكُمْۚ فَمَنْ اَبْصَرَ فَلِنَفْسِهٖۚ وَمَنْ عَمِيَ فَعَلَيْهَاۗ وَمَآ اَنَا۠ عَلَيْكُمْ بِحَفِيْظٍ

     Qad jā'akum baṣā'iru mir rabbikum, faman abṣara fa linafsih(ī), wa man ‘amiya fa ‘alaihā, wa mā ana ‘alaikum biḥafīẓ(in).

     Indeed, there have come to you insights from your Lord. So whoever chooses to see, it is for their own good. But whoever chooses to be blind, it is to their own loss. And I am not a keeper over you.

105. وَكَذٰلِكَ نُصَرِّفُ الْاٰيٰتِ وَلِيَقُوْلُوْا دَرَسْتَ وَلِنُبَيِّنَهٗ لِقَوْمٍ يَّعْلَمُوْنَ

     Wa każālika nuṣarriful-āyāti wa liyaqūlū darasta wa linubayyinahū liqaumiy ya‘lamūn(a).

     And so We vary our signs to the extent that they will say, “You have studied ˹previous scriptures˺,” and We make this ˹Quran˺ clear for people who know.

106. اِتَّبِعْ مَآ اُوْحِيَ اِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَّبِّكَۚ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۚ وَاَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ

     Ittabi‘ mā ūḥiya ilaika mir rabbik(a), lā ilāha illā huw(a), wa a‘riḍ ‘anil-musyrikīn(a).

     ˹O Prophet!˺ Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord—there is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him—and turn away from the polytheists.

107. وَلَوْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ مَآ اَشْرَكُوْاۗ وَمَا جَعَلْنٰكَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَفِيْظًاۚ وَمَآ اَنْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِوَكِيْلٍ

     Wa lau syā'allāhu mā asyrakū, wa mā ja‘alnā ‘alaihim ḥafīẓā(n), wa mā anta ‘alaihim biwakīl(in).

     Had Allah willed, they would not have been polytheists. We have not appointed you as their keeper, nor are you their maintainer.

108. وَلَا تَسُبُّوا الَّذِيْنَ يَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ فَيَسُبُّوا اللّٰهَ عَدْوًاۢ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍۗ كَذٰلِكَ زَيَّنَّا لِكُلِّ اُمَّةٍ عَمَلَهُمْۖ ثُمَّ اِلٰى رَبِّهِمْ مَّرْجِعُهُمْ فَيُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ

     Wa lā tasubbul-lażīna yad‘ūna min dūnillāhi fa yasubbullāha ‘adwam bigairi ‘ilm(in), każālika zayyannā likulli ummatin ‘amalahum, ṡumma ilā rabbihim marji‘uhum fa yunabbi'uhum bimā kānū ya‘malūn(a).

     ˹O believers!˺ Do not insult what they invoke besides Allah or they will insult Allah spitefully out of ignorance. This is how We have made each people’s deeds appealing to them. Then to their Lord is their return, and He will inform them of what they used to do.

109. وَاَقْسَمُوْا بِاللّٰهِ جَهْدَ اَيْمَانِهِمْ لَىِٕنْ جَاۤءَتْهُمْ اٰيَةٌ لَّيُؤْمِنُنَّ بِهَاۗ قُلْ اِنَّمَا الْاٰيٰتُ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ وَمَا يُشْعِرُكُمْ اَنَّهَآ اِذَا جَاۤءَتْ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ

     Wa aqsamū billāhi jahda aimānihim la'in jā'athum āyatul layu'minunna bihā, qul innamal-āyātu ‘indallāhi wa mā yusy‘irukum annahā iżā jā'at lā yu'minūn(a).

     They swear by Allah their most solemn oaths that if a sign were to come to them, they would certainly believe in it. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Signs are only with Allah.” What will make you ˹believers˺ realize that even if a sign were to come to them, they still would not believe?

110. وَنُقَلِّبُ اَفْـِٕدَتَهُمْ وَاَبْصَارَهُمْ كَمَا لَمْ يُؤْمِنُوْا بِهٖٓ اَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَّنَذَرُهُمْ فِيْ طُغْيَانِهِمْ يَعْمَهُوْنَ ࣖ ۔

     Wa nuqallibu af'idatahum wa abṣārahum kamā lam yu'minū bihī awwala marratiw wa nażaruhum fī ṭugyānihim ya‘mahūn(a).

     We turn their hearts and eyes away ˹from the truth˺ as they refused to believe at first, leaving them to wander blindly in their defiance.

111. ۞ وَلَوْ اَنَّنَا نَزَّلْنَآ اِلَيْهِمُ الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةَ وَكَلَّمَهُمُ الْمَوْتٰى وَحَشَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ قُبُلًا مَّا كَانُوْا لِيُؤْمِنُوْٓا اِلَّآ اَنْ يَّشَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ يَجْهَلُوْنَ

     Wa lau annanā nazzalnā ilaihimul-malā'ikata wa kallamahumul-mautā wa ḥasyarnā ‘alaihim kulla syai'in qubulam mā kānū liyu'minū illā ay yasyā'allāhu wa lākinna akṡarahum yajhalūn(a).

     Even if We had sent them the angels, made the dead speak to them, and assembled before their own eyes every sign ˹they demanded˺, they still would not have believed—unless Allah so willed. But most of them are ignorant ˹of this˺.

112. وَكَذٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِيٍّ عَدُوًّا شَيٰطِيْنَ الْاِنْسِ وَالْجِنِّ يُوْحِيْ بَعْضُهُمْ اِلٰى بَعْضٍ زُخْرُفَ الْقَوْلِ غُرُوْرًا ۗوَلَوْ شَاۤءَ رَبُّكَ مَا فَعَلُوْهُ فَذَرْهُمْ وَمَا يَفْتَرُوْنَ

     Wa każālika ja‘alnā likulli nabiyyin ‘aduwwan syayāṭīnal-insi wal-jinni yūḥī ba‘ḍuhum ilā ba‘ḍin zukhrufal-qauli gurūrā(n), wa lau syā'a rabbuka mā fa‘alūhu fa żarhum wa mā yaftarūn(a).

     And so We have made for every prophet enemies—devilish humans and jinn—whispering to one another with elegant words of deception. Had it been your Lord’s Will, they would not have done such a thing. So leave them and their deceit,

113. وَلِتَصْغٰٓى اِلَيْهِ اَفْـِٕدَةُ الَّذِيْنَ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ وَلِيَرْضَوْهُ وَلِيَقْتَرِفُوْا مَا هُمْ مُّقْتَرِفُوْنَ

     Wa litaṣgā ilaihi af'idatul-lażīna lā yu'minūna bil-ākhirati wa liyarḍauhu wa liyaqtarifū mā hum muqtarifūn(a).

     so that the hearts of those who disbelieve in the Hereafter may be receptive to it, be pleased with it, and be persistent in their evil pursuits.

114. اَفَغَيْرَ اللّٰهِ اَبْتَغِيْ حَكَمًا وَّهُوَ الَّذِيْٓ اَنْزَلَ اِلَيْكُمُ الْكِتٰبَ مُفَصَّلًا ۗوَالَّذِيْنَ اٰتَيْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ يَعْلَمُوْنَ اَنَّهٗ مُنَزَّلٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ بِالْحَقِّ فَلَا تَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِيْنَ

     Afagairallāhi abtagī ḥakamaw wa huwal-lażī anzala ilaikumul-kitāba mufaṣṣalā(n), wal-lażīna ātaināhumul-kitāba ya‘lamūna annahū munazzalum mir rabbika bil-ḥaqqi falā takunanna minal-mumtarīn(a).

     ˹Say, O Prophet,˺ “Should I seek a judge other than Allah while He is the One Who has revealed for you the Book ˹with the truth˺ perfectly explained?” Those who were given the Scripture know that it has been revealed ˹to you˺ from your Lord in truth. So do not be one of those who doubt.

115. وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ صِدْقًا وَّعَدْلًاۗ لَا مُبَدِّلَ لِكَلِمٰتِهٖ ۚوَهُوَ السَّمِيْعُ الْعَلِيْمُ

     Wa tammat kalimatu rabbika ṣidqaw wa ‘adlā(n), lā mubaddila likalimātih(ī), wa huwas-samī‘ul-‘alīm(u).

     The Word of your Lord has been perfected in truth and justice. None can change His Words. And He is the All-Hearing, All- Knowing.

116. وَاِنْ تُطِعْ اَكْثَرَ مَنْ فِى الْاَرْضِ يُضِلُّوْكَ عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ ۗاِنْ يَّتَّبِعُوْنَ اِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَاِنْ هُمْ اِلَّا يَخْرُصُوْنَ

     Wa in tuṭi‘ akṡara man fil-arḍi yuḍillūka ‘an sabīlillāh(i), iy yattabi‘ūna illaẓ-ẓanna wa in hum illā yakhruṣ ūn(a).

     ˹O Prophet!˺ If you were to obey most of those on earth, they would lead you away from Allah’s Way. They follow nothing but assumptions and do nothing but lie.

117. اِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ اَعْلَمُ مَنْ يَّضِلُّ عَنْ سَبِيْلِهٖۚ وَهُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِيْنَ

     Inna rabbaka huwa a‘lamu may yaḍillu ‘an sabīlih(ī), wa huwa a‘lamu bil-muhtadīn(a).

     Indeed, your Lord knows best who has strayed from His Way and who is ˹rightly˺ guided.

118. فَكُلُوْا مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْهِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ بِاٰيٰتِهٖ مُؤْمِنِيْنَ

     Fa kulū mimmā żukirasmullāhi ‘alaihi in kuntum bi'āyātihī mu'minīn(a).

     So eat only of what is slaughtered in Allah’s Name if you truly believe in His revelations.

119. وَمَا لَكُمْ اَلَّا تَأْكُلُوْا مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْهِ وَقَدْ فَصَّلَ لَكُمْ مَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ اِلَّا مَا اضْطُرِرْتُمْ اِلَيْهِ ۗوَاِنَّ كَثِيْرًا لَّيُضِلُّوْنَ بِاَهْوَاۤىِٕهِمْ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ ۗاِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِالْمُعْتَدِيْنَ

     Wa mā lakum allā ta'kulū mimmā żukirasmullāhi ‘alaihi wa qad faṣṣala lakum mā ḥarrama ‘alaikum illā maḍṭurirtum ilaih(i), wa inna kaṡīral layuḍillūna bi'ahwā'ihim bigairi ‘ilm(in), inna rabbaka huwa a‘lamu bil-mu‘tadīn(a).

     Why should you not eat of what is slaughtered in Allah’s Name when He has already explained to you what He has forbidden to you—except when compelled by necessity? Many ˹deviants˺ certainly mislead others by their whims out of ignorance. Surely your Lord knows the transgressors best.

120. وَذَرُوْا ظَاهِرَ الْاِثْمِ وَبَاطِنَهٗ ۗاِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ يَكْسِبُوْنَ الْاِثْمَ سَيُجْزَوْنَ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَقْتَرِفُوْنَ

     Wa żarū ẓāhiral-iṡmi wa bāṭinah(ū), innal-lażīna yaksibūnal-iṡma sayujzauna bimā kānū yaqtarifūn(a).

     Shun all sin—open and secret. Indeed, those who commit sin will be punished for what they earn.

121. وَلَا تَأْكُلُوْا مِمَّا لَمْ يُذْكَرِ اسْمُ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْهِ وَاِنَّهٗ لَفِسْقٌۗ وَاِنَّ الشَّيٰطِيْنَ لَيُوْحُوْنَ اِلٰٓى اَوْلِيَاۤىِٕهِمْ لِيُجَادِلُوْكُمْ ۚوَاِنْ اَطَعْتُمُوْهُمْ اِنَّكُمْ لَمُشْرِكُوْنَ ࣖ

     Wa lā ta'kulū mimmā lam yużkarismullāhi ‘alaihi wa innahū lafisq(un), wa innasy-syayāṭīna layūḥūna ilā auliyā'ihim liyujādilūkum, wa in aṭa‘tumūhum innakum lamusyrikūn(a).

     Do not eat of what is not slaughtered in Allah’s Name. For that would certainly be ˹an act of˺ disobedience. Surely the devils whisper to their ˹human˺ associates to argue with you. If you were to obey them, then you ˹too˺ would be polytheists.

122. اَوَمَنْ كَانَ مَيْتًا فَاَحْيَيْنٰهُ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهٗ نُوْرًا يَّمْشِيْ بِهٖ فِى النَّاسِ كَمَنْ مَّثَلُهٗ فِى الظُّلُمٰتِ لَيْسَ بِخَارِجٍ مِّنْهَاۗ كَذٰلِكَ زُيِّنَ لِلْكٰفِرِيْنَ مَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ

     Awa man kāna maitan fa aḥyaināhu wa ja‘alnā lahū nūray yamsyī bihī fin-nāsi kamam maṡaluhū fiẓ-ẓulumāti laisa bikhārijim minhā, każālika zuyyina lil-kāfirīna mā kānū ya‘malūn(a).

     Can those who had been dead, to whom We gave life and a light with which they can walk among people, be compared to those in complete darkness from which they can never emerge? That is how the misdeeds of the disbelievers have been made appealing to them.

123. وَكَذٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا فِيْ كُلِّ قَرْيَةٍ اَكٰبِرَ مُجْرِمِيْهَا لِيَمْكُرُوْا فِيْهَاۗ وَمَا يَمْكُرُوْنَ اِلَّا بِاَنْفُسِهِمْ وَمَا يَشْعُرُوْنَ

     Wa każālika ja‘alnā fī kulli qaryatin akābira mujrimīhā liyamkurū fīhā, wa mā yamkurūna illā bi'anfusihim wa mā yasy‘urūn(a).

     And so We have placed in every society the most wicked to conspire in it. Yet they plot only against themselves, but they fail to perceive it.

124. وَاِذَا جَاۤءَتْهُمْ اٰيَةٌ قَالُوْا لَنْ نُّؤْمِنَ حَتّٰى نُؤْتٰى مِثْلَ مَآ اُوْتِيَ رُسُلُ اللّٰهِ ۘ اَللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ حَيْثُ يَجْعَلُ رِسٰلَتَهٗۗ سَيُصِيْبُ الَّذِيْنَ اَجْرَمُوْا صَغَارٌ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ وَعَذَابٌ شَدِيْدٌۢ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَمْكُرُوْنَ

     Wa iżā jā'athum āyatun qālū lan nu'mina ḥattā nu'tā miṡla mā ūtiya rusulullāh(i), allāhu a‘lamu ḥaiṡu yaj‘alu risālatah(ū), sayuṣībul-lażīna ajramū ṣagārun ‘indallāhi wa ‘ażābun syadīdum bimā kānū yamkurūn(a).

     Whenever a sign comes to them, they say, “We will never believe until we receive what Allah’s messengers received.” Allah knows best where to place His message. The wicked will soon be overwhelmed by humiliation from Allah and a severe punishment for their evil plots.

125. فَمَنْ يُّرِدِ اللّٰهُ اَنْ يَّهْدِيَهٗ يَشْرَحْ صَدْرَهٗ لِلْاِسْلَامِۚ وَمَنْ يُّرِدْ اَنْ يُّضِلَّهٗ يَجْعَلْ صَدْرَهٗ ضَيِّقًا حَرَجًا كَاَنَّمَا يَصَّعَّدُ فِى السَّمَاۤءِۗ كَذٰلِكَ يَجْعَلُ اللّٰهُ الرِّجْسَ عَلَى الَّذِيْنَ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ

     Fa may yuridillāhu ay yahdiyahū yasyraḥ ṣadrahū lil-islām(i), wa may yurid ay yuḍillahū yaj‘al ṣadrahū ḍayyiqan ḥarajan ka'annamā yaṣṣa‘‘adu fis-samā'(i), każālika yaj‘alullāhur-rijsa ‘alal-lażīna lā yu'minūn(a).

     Whoever Allah wills to guide, He opens their heart to Islam. But whoever He wills to leave astray, He makes their chest tight and constricted as if they were climbing up into the sky. This is how Allah dooms those who disbelieve.

126. وَهٰذَا صِرَاطُ رَبِّكَ مُسْتَقِيْمًاۗ قَدْ فَصَّلْنَا الْاٰيٰتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَّذَّكَّرُوْنَ

     Wa hāżā ṣirāṭu rabbika mustaqīmā(n), qad faṣṣalnal-āyāti liqaumiy yażżakkarūn(a).

     That is your Lord’s Path—perfectly straight. We have already made the signs clear to those who are mindful.

127. ۞ لَهُمْ دَارُ السَّلٰمِ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ وَهُوَ وَلِيُّهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ

     Lahum dārus-salāmi ‘inda rabbihim wa huwa waliyyuhum bimā kānū ya‘malūn(a).

     They will have the Home of Peace with their Lord, Who will be their Guardian because of what they used to do.

128. وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ جَمِيْعًاۚ يٰمَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ قَدِ اسْتَكْثَرْتُمْ مِّنَ الْاِنْسِ ۚوَقَالَ اَوْلِيَاۤؤُهُمْ مِّنَ الْاِنْسِ رَبَّنَا اسْتَمْتَعَ بَعْضُنَا بِبَعْضٍ وَّبَلَغْنَآ اَجَلَنَا الَّذِيْٓ اَجَّلْتَ لَنَا ۗقَالَ النَّارُ مَثْوٰىكُمْ خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهَآ اِلَّا مَا شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ ۗاِنَّ رَبَّكَ حَكِيْمٌ عَلِيْمٌ

     Wa yauma yaḥsyuruhum jamī‘ā(n), yā ma‘syaral-jinni qadistakṡartum minal-ins(i), wa qāla auliyā'uhum minal-insi rabbanastamta‘a ba‘ḍunā biba‘ḍiw wa balagnā ajalanal-lażī ajjalta lanā, qālan-nāru maṡwākum khālidīna fīhā illā mā syā'allāh(u), inna rabbaka ḥakīmun ‘alīm(un).

     ˹Consider˺ the Day He will gather them ˹all˺ together and say, “O assembly of jinn! You misled humans in great numbers.” And their human associates will say, “Our Lord! We benefited from each other’s company, but now we have reached the term which You appointed for us.” ˹Then˺ He will say, “The Fire is your home, yours to stay in forever, except whoever Allah wills to spare.” Surely your Lord is All-Wise, All-Knowing.

129. وَكَذٰلِكَ نُوَلِّيْ بَعْضَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ بَعْضًاۢ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَكْسِبُوْنَ ࣖ

     Wa każālika nuwallī ba‘ḍaẓ-ẓālimīna ba‘ḍam bimā kānū yaksibūn(a).

     This is how We make the wrongdoers ˹destructive˺ allies of one another because of their misdeeds.

130. يٰمَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ وَالْاِنْسِ اَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ رُسُلٌ مِّنْكُمْ يَقُصُّوْنَ عَلَيْكُمْ اٰيٰتِيْ وَيُنْذِرُوْنَكُمْ لِقَاۤءَ يَوْمِكُمْ هٰذَاۗ قَالُوْا شَهِدْنَا عَلٰٓى اَنْفُسِنَا وَغَرَّتْهُمُ الْحَيٰوةُ الدُّنْيَا وَشَهِدُوْا عَلٰٓى اَنْفُسِهِمْ اَنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا كٰفِرِيْنَ

     Yā ma‘syaral-jinni wal-insi alam ya'tikum rusulum minkum yaquṣṣūna ‘alaikum āyātī wa yunżirūnakum liqā'a yaumikum hāżā, qālū syahidnā ‘alā anfusinā wa garrathumul-ḥayātud-un-yā wa syahidū ‘alā anfusihim annahum kānū kāfirīn(a).

     ˹Allah will ask,˺ “O assembly of jinn and humans! Did messengers not come from among you, proclaiming My revelations and warning you of the coming of this Day of yours?” They will say, “We confess against ourselves!” For they have been deluded by ˹their˺ worldly life. And they will testify against themselves that they were disbelievers.

131. ذٰلِكَ اَنْ لَّمْ يَكُنْ رَّبُّكَ مُهْلِكَ الْقُرٰى بِظُلْمٍ وَّاَهْلُهَا غٰفِلُوْنَ

     Żālika allam yakur rabbuka muhlikal-qurā biẓulmiw wa ahluhā gāfilūn(a).

     This ˹sending of the messengers˺ is because your Lord would never destroy a society for their wrongdoing while its people are unaware ˹of the truth˺.

132. وَلِكُلٍّ دَرَجٰتٌ مِّمَّا عَمِلُوْاۗ وَمَا رَبُّكَ بِغَافِلٍ عَمَّا يَعْمَلُوْنَ

     Wa likullin darajātum mimmā ‘amilū, wa mā rabbuka bigāfilin ‘ammā ya‘malūn(a).

     They will each be assigned ranks according to their deeds. And your Lord is not unaware of what they do.

133. وَرَبُّكَ الْغَنِيُّ ذُو الرَّحْمَةِ ۗاِنْ يَّشَأْ يُذْهِبْكُمْ وَيَسْتَخْلِفْ مِنْۢ بَعْدِكُمْ مَّا يَشَاۤءُ كَمَآ اَنْشَاَكُمْ مِّنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ قَوْمٍ اٰخَرِيْنَ

     Wa rabbukal-ganiyyu żur-raḥmah(ti), iy yasya' yużhibkum wa yastakhlif mim ba‘dikum mā yasyā'u kamā ansya'akum min żurriyyati qaumin ākharīn(a).

     Your Lord is the Self-Sufficient, Full of Mercy. If He wills, He can do away with you and replace you with whoever He wills, just as He produced you from the offspring of other people.

134. اِنَّ مَا تُوْعَدُوْنَ لَاٰتٍۙ وَّمَآ اَنْتُمْ بِمُعْجِزِيْنَ

     Innamā tū‘adūna la'āt(in), wa mā antum bimu‘jizīn(a).

     Indeed, what you have been promised will certainly come to pass. And you will have no escape.

135. قُلْ يٰقَوْمِ اعْمَلُوْا عَلٰى مَكَانَتِكُمْ اِنِّيْ عَامِلٌۚ فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُوْنَۙ مَنْ تَكُوْنُ لَهٗ عَاقِبَةُ الدَّارِۗ اِنَّهٗ لَا يُفْلِحُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ

     Qul yā qaumi‘malū ‘alā makānatikum innī ‘āmil(un), fa saufa ta‘lamūn(a), man takūnu lahū ‘āqibatud-dār(i), innahū lā yufliḥuẓ-ẓālimūn(a).

     Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “O my people! Persist in your ways, for I ˹too˺ will persist in mine. You will soon know who will fare best in the end. Indeed, the wrongdoers will never succeed.”

136. وَجَعَلُوْا لِلّٰهِ مِمَّا ذَرَاَ مِنَ الْحَرْثِ وَالْاَنْعَامِ نَصِيْبًا فَقَالُوْا هٰذَا لِلّٰهِ بِزَعْمِهِمْ وَهٰذَا لِشُرَكَاۤىِٕنَاۚ فَمَا كَانَ لِشُرَكَاۤىِٕهِمْ فَلَا يَصِلُ اِلَى اللّٰهِ ۚوَمَا كَانَ لِلّٰهِ فَهُوَ يَصِلُ اِلٰى شُرَكَاۤىِٕهِمْۗ سَاۤءَ مَا يَحْكُمُوْنَ

     Wa ja‘alū lillāhi mimmā żara'a minal-ḥarṡi wal-an‘āmi naṣīban fa qālū hāżā lillāhi biza‘mihim wa hāżā lisyurakā'inā, famā kāna lisyurakā'ihim falā yaṣilu ilallāh(i), wa mā kāna lillāhi fa huwa yaṣilu ilā syurakā'ihim, sā'a mā yaḥkumūn(a).

     The pagans set aside for Allah a share of the crops and cattle He created, saying, “This ˹portion˺ is for Allah,” so they claim, “and this ˹one˺ for our associate-gods.” Yet the portion of their associate-gods is not shared with Allah while Allah’s portion is shared with their associate-gods. What unfair judgment!

137. وَكَذٰلِكَ زَيَّنَ لِكَثِيْرٍ مِّنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ قَتْلَ اَوْلَادِهِمْ شُرَكَاۤؤُهُمْ لِيُرْدُوْهُمْ وَلِيَلْبِسُوْا عَلَيْهِمْ دِيْنَهُمْۗ وَلَوْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ مَا فَعَلُوْهُ فَذَرْهُمْ وَمَا يَفْتَرُوْنَ

     Likewise, the pagans’ evil associates have made it appealing to them to kill their own children—only leading to their destruction as well as confusion in their faith. Had it been Allah’s Will, they would not have done such a thing. So leave them and their falsehood.

138. وَقَالُوْا هٰذِهٖٓ اَنْعَامٌ وَّحَرْثٌ حِجْرٌ لَّا يَطْعَمُهَآ اِلَّا مَنْ نَّشَاۤءُ بِزَعْمِهِمْ وَاَنْعَامٌ حُرِّمَتْ ظُهُوْرُهَا وَاَنْعَامٌ لَّا يَذْكُرُوْنَ اسْمَ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْهَا افْتِرَاۤءً عَلَيْهِۗ سَيَجْزِيْهِمْ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَفْتَرُوْنَ

     They say, “These cattle and crops are reserved—none may eat them except those we permit,” so they claim. Some other cattle are exempted from labour and others are not slaughtered in Allah’s Name—falsely attributing lies to Him. He will repay them for their lies.

139. وَقَالُوْا مَا فِيْ بُطُوْنِ هٰذِهِ الْاَنْعَامِ خَالِصَةٌ لِّذُكُوْرِنَا وَمُحَرَّمٌ عَلٰٓى اَزْوَاجِنَاۚ وَاِنْ يَّكُنْ مَّيْتَةً فَهُمْ فِيْهِ شُرَكَاۤءُ ۗسَيَجْزِيْهِمْ وَصْفَهُمْۗ اِنَّهٗ حَكِيْمٌ عَلِيْمٌ

     They ˹also˺ say, “The offspring of this cattle is reserved for our males and forbidden to our females; but if it is stillborn, they may all share it.” He will repay them for their falsehood. Surely He is All-Wise, All-Knowing.

140. قَدْ خَسِرَ الَّذِيْنَ قَتَلُوْٓا اَوْلَادَهُمْ سَفَهًاۢ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَّحَرَّمُوْا مَا رَزَقَهُمُ اللّٰهُ افْتِرَاۤءً عَلَى اللّٰهِ ۗقَدْ ضَلُّوْا وَمَا كَانُوْا مُهْتَدِيْنَ ࣖ

     Lost indeed are those who have murdered their own children foolishly out of ignorance and have forbidden what Allah has provided for them—falsely attributing lies to Allah. They have certainly strayed and are not ˹rightly˺ guided.

141. ۞ وَهُوَ الَّذِيْٓ اَنْشَاَ جَنّٰتٍ مَّعْرُوْشٰتٍ وَّغَيْرَ مَعْرُوْشٰتٍ وَّالنَّخْلَ وَالزَّرْعَ مُخْتَلِفًا اُكُلُهٗ وَالزَّيْتُوْنَ وَالرُّمَّانَ مُتَشَابِهًا وَّغَيْرَ مُتَشَابِهٍۗ كُلُوْا مِنْ ثَمَرِهٖٓ اِذَآ اَثْمَرَ وَاٰتُوْا حَقَّهٗ يَوْمَ حَصَادِهٖۖ وَلَا تُسْرِفُوْا ۗاِنَّهٗ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُسْرِفِيْنَۙ

     He is the One Who produces gardens—both cultivated and wild—and palm trees, crops of different flavours, olives, and pomegranates—similar ˹in shape˺, but dissimilar ˹in taste˺. Eat of their fruit and pay the dues at harvest, but do not waste. Surely He does not like the wasteful.

142. وَمِنَ الْاَنْعَامِ حَمُوْلَةً وَّفَرْشًا ۗ كُلُوْا مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللّٰهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوْا خُطُوٰتِ الشَّيْطٰنِۗ اِنَّهٗ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِيْنٌۙ

     Some cattle are fit for labour, others are too small. Eat of what Allah has provided for you and do not follow Satan’s footsteps. Certainly, he is your sworn enemy.

143. ثَمٰنِيَةَ اَزْوَاجٍۚ مِنَ الضَّأْنِ اثْنَيْنِ وَمِنَ الْمَعْزِ اثْنَيْنِۗ قُلْ ءٰۤالذَّكَرَيْنِ حَرَّمَ اَمِ الْاُنْثَيَيْنِ اَمَّا اشْتَمَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ اَرْحَامُ الْاُنْثَيَيْنِۗ نَبِّـُٔوْنِيْ بِعِلْمٍ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ

     ˹Allah has created˺ four pairs: a pair of sheep and a pair of goats—ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Has He forbidden ˹to you˺ the two males or the two females or what is in the wombs of the two females? Tell me with knowledge, if what you say is true.”—

144. وَمِنَ الْاِبِلِ اثْنَيْنِ وَمِنَ الْبَقَرِ اثْنَيْنِۗ قُلْ ءٰۤالذَّكَرَيْنِ حَرَّمَ اَمِ الْاُنْثَيَيْنِ اَمَّا اشْتَمَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ اَرْحَامُ الْاُنْثَيَيْنِۗ اَمْ كُنْتُمْ شُهَدَاۤءَ اِذْ وَصّٰىكُمُ اللّٰهُ بِهٰذَاۚ فَمَنْ اَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ افْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا لِّيُضِلَّ النَّاسَ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍۗ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يَهْدِى الْقَوْمَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ࣖ

     Wa minal-ibiliṡnaini wa minal-baqariṡnain(i), qul āżżakaraini ḥarrama amil-unṡayaini ammasytamalat ‘alaihi arḥāmul-unṡayain(i), am kuntum syuhadā'a iż waṣṣākumullāhu bihāżā, faman aẓlamu mimmaniftarā ‘alallāhi każibal liyuḍillan-nāsa bigairi ‘ilm(in), innallāha lā yahdil-qaumaẓ-ẓālimīn(a).

     and a pair of camels and a pair of oxen. Ask ˹them˺, “Has He forbidden ˹to you˺ the two males or the two females or what is in the wombs of the two females? Or were you present when Allah gave you this commandment?” Who does more wrong than those who fabricate lies against Allah to mislead others without ˹any˺ knowledge? Surely Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.

145. قُلْ لَّآ اَجِدُ فِيْ مَآ اُوْحِيَ اِلَيَّ مُحَرَّمًا عَلٰى طَاعِمٍ يَّطْعَمُهٗٓ اِلَّآ اَنْ يَّكُوْنَ مَيْتَةً اَوْ دَمًا مَّسْفُوْحًا اَوْ لَحْمَ خِنْزِيْرٍ فَاِنَّهٗ رِجْسٌ اَوْ فِسْقًا اُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ اللّٰهِ بِهٖۚ فَمَنِ اضْطُرَّ غَيْرَ بَاغٍ وَّلَا عَادٍ فَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ

     Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I do not find in what has been revealed to me anything forbidden to eat except carrion, running blood, swine—which is impure—or a sinful offering in the name of any other than Allah. But if someone is compelled by necessity—neither driven by desire nor exceeding immediate need—then surely your Lord is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”

146. وَعَلَى الَّذِيْنَ هَادُوْا حَرَّمْنَا كُلَّ ذِيْ ظُفُرٍۚ وَمِنَ الْبَقَرِ وَالْغَنَمِ حَرَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ شُحُوْمَهُمَآ اِلَّا مَا حَمَلَتْ ظُهُوْرُهُمَآ اَوِ الْحَوَايَآ اَوْ مَا اخْتَلَطَ بِعَظْمٍۗ ذٰلِكَ جَزَيْنٰهُمْ بِبَغْيِهِمْۚ وَاِنَّا لَصٰدِقُوْنَ

     For those who are Jewish, We forbade every animal with undivided hoofs and the fat of oxen and sheep except what is joined to their backs or intestines or mixed with bone. In this way We rewarded them for their violations. And We are certainly truthful.

147. فَاِنْ كَذَّبُوْكَ فَقُلْ رَّبُّكُمْ ذُوْ رَحْمَةٍ وَّاسِعَةٍۚ وَلَا يُرَدُّ بَأْسُهٗ عَنِ الْقَوْمِ الْمُجْرِمِيْنَ

     Fa in każżabūka faqur rabbukum żū raḥmatiw wāsi‘ah(tin), wa lā yuraddu ba'suhū ‘anil-qaumil-mujrimīn(a).

     But if they deny you ˹O Prophet˺, say, “Your Lord is infinite in mercy, yet His punishment will not be averted from the wicked people.”

148. سَيَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ اَشْرَكُوْا لَوْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ مَآ اَشْرَكْنَا وَلَآ اٰبَاۤؤُنَا وَلَا حَرَّمْنَا مِنْ شَيْءٍۗ كَذٰلِكَ كَذَّبَ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ حَتّٰى ذَاقُوْا بَأْسَنَاۗ قُلْ هَلْ عِنْدَكُمْ مِّنْ عِلْمٍ فَتُخْرِجُوْهُ لَنَاۗ اِنْ تَتَّبِعُوْنَ اِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَاِنْ اَنْتُمْ اِلَّا تَخْرُصُوْنَ

     The polytheists will argue, “Had it been Allah’s Will, neither we nor our forefathers would have associated others with Him ˹in worship˺ or made anything unlawful.” Likewise, those before them rejected the truth until they tasted Our punishment. Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Do you have any knowledge that you can produce for us? Surely you follow nothing but ˹false˺ assumptions and you do nothing but lie.”

149. قُلْ فَلِلّٰهِ الْحُجَّةُ الْبَالِغَةُۚ فَلَوْ شَاۤءَ لَهَدٰىكُمْ اَجْمَعِيْنَ

     Qul fa lillāhil-ḥujjatul-bāligah(tu), fa lau syā'a lahadākum ajma‘īn(a).

     Say, “Allah has the most conclusive argument. Had it been His Will, He would have easily guided all of you.”

150. قُلْ هَلُمَّ شُهَدَاۤءَكُمُ الَّذِيْنَ يَشْهَدُوْنَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ حَرَّمَ هٰذَاۚ فَاِنْ شَهِدُوْا فَلَا تَشْهَدْ مَعَهُمْۚ وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ اَهْوَاۤءَ الَّذِيْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِنَا وَالَّذِيْنَ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ وَهُمْ بِرَبِّهِمْ يَعْدِلُوْنَ ࣖ

     Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Bring your witnesses who can testify that Allah has forbidden this.” If they ˹falsely˺ testify, do not testify with them. And do not follow the desires of those who deny Our proofs, disbelieve in the Hereafter, and set up equals with their Lord.

151. ۞ قُلْ تَعَالَوْا اَتْلُ مَا حَرَّمَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ اَلَّا تُشْرِكُوْا بِهٖ شَيْـًٔا وَّبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ اِحْسَانًاۚ وَلَا تَقْتُلُوْٓا اَوْلَادَكُمْ مِّنْ اِمْلَاقٍۗ نَحْنُ نَرْزُقُكُمْ وَاِيَّاهُمْ ۚوَلَا تَقْرَبُوا الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَۚ وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا النَّفْسَ الَّتِيْ حَرَّمَ اللّٰهُ اِلَّا بِالْحَقِّۗ ذٰلِكُمْ وَصّٰىكُمْ بِهٖ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُوْنَ

     Qul ta‘ālau atlu mā ḥarrama rabbukum ‘alaikum allā tusyrikū bihī syai'aw wa bil-wālidaini iḥsānā(n), wa lā taqtulū aulādakum min imlāq(in), naḥnu narzuqukum wa iyyāhum, wa lā taqrabul-fawāḥisya mā ẓahara minhā wa mā baṭan(a), wa lā taqtulun-nafsal-latī ḥarramallāhu illā bil-ḥaqq(i), żālikum waṣṣākum bihī la‘allakum ta‘qilūn(a).

     Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Come! Let me recite to you what your Lord has forbidden to you: do not associate others with Him ˹in worship˺. ˹Do not fail to˺ honour your parents. Do not kill your children for fear of poverty. We provide for you and for them. Do not come near indecencies, openly or secretly. Do not take a ˹human˺ life—made sacred by Allah—except with ˹legal˺ right. This is what He has commanded you, so perhaps you will understand.

152. وَلَا تَقْرَبُوْا مَالَ الْيَتِيْمِ اِلَّا بِالَّتِيْ هِيَ اَحْسَنُ حَتّٰى يَبْلُغَ اَشُدَّهٗ ۚوَاَوْفُوا الْكَيْلَ وَالْمِيْزَانَ بِالْقِسْطِۚ لَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا اِلَّا وُسْعَهَاۚ وَاِذَا قُلْتُمْ فَاعْدِلُوْا وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَا قُرْبٰىۚ وَبِعَهْدِ اللّٰهِ اَوْفُوْاۗ ذٰلِكُمْ وَصّٰىكُمْ بِهٖ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُوْنَۙ

     Wa lā taqrabū mālal-yatīmi illā bil-latī hiya aḥsanu ḥattā yabluga asyuddah(ū), wa auful-kaila wal-mīzāna bil-qisṭ(i), lā nukallifu nafsan illā wus‘ahā, wa iżā qultum fa‘dilū wa lau kāna żā qurbā, wa bi‘ahdillāhi aufū, żālikum waṣṣākum bihī la‘allakum tażakkarūn(a).

     And do not come near the wealth of the orphan—unless intending to enhance it—until they attain maturity. Give full measure and weigh with justice. We never require of any soul more than what it can afford. Whenever you speak, maintain justice—even regarding a close relative. And fulfil your covenant with Allah. This is what He has commanded you, so perhaps you will be mindful.

153. وَاَنَّ هٰذَا صِرَاطِيْ مُسْتَقِيْمًا فَاتَّبِعُوْهُ ۚوَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَنْ سَبِيْلِهٖ ۗذٰلِكُمْ وَصّٰىكُمْ بِهٖ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُوْنَ

     Indeed, that is My Path—perfectly straight. So follow it and do not follow other ways, for they will lead you away from His Way. This is what He has commanded you, so perhaps you will be conscious ˹of Allah˺.”

154. ثُمَّ اٰتَيْنَا مُوْسَى الْكِتٰبَ تَمَامًا عَلَى الَّذِيْٓ اَحْسَنَ وَتَفْصِيْلًا لِّكُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَّهُدًى وَّرَحْمَةً لَّعَلَّهُمْ بِلِقَاۤءِ رَبِّهِمْ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ ࣖ

     Additionally, We gave Moses the Scripture, completing the favour upon those who do good, detailing everything, and as a guide and a mercy, so perhaps they would be certain of the meeting with their Lord.

155. وَهٰذَا كِتٰبٌ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ مُبٰرَكٌ فَاتَّبِعُوْهُ وَاتَّقُوْا لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُوْنَۙ

     Wa hāżā kitābun anzalnāhu mubārakun fattabi‘ūhu wattaqū la‘allakum turḥamūn(a).

     This is a blessed Book We have revealed. So follow it and be mindful ˹of Allah˺, so you may be shown mercy.

156. اَنْ تَقُوْلُوْٓا اِنَّمَآ اُنْزِلَ الْكِتٰبُ عَلٰى طَاۤىِٕفَتَيْنِ مِنْ قَبْلِنَاۖ وَاِنْ كُنَّا عَنْ دِرَاسَتِهِمْ لَغٰفِلِيْنَۙ

     An taqūlū innamā unzilal-kitābu ‘alā ṭā'ifataini min qablinā, wa in kunnā ‘an dirāsatihim lagāfilīn(a).

     You ˹pagans˺ can no longer say, “Scriptures were only revealed to two groups before us and we were unaware of their teachings.”

157. اَوْ تَقُوْلُوْا لَوْ اَنَّآ اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْنَا الْكِتٰبُ لَكُنَّآ اَهْدٰى مِنْهُمْۚ فَقَدْ جَاۤءَكُمْ بَيِّنَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ وَهُدًى وَّرَحْمَةٌ ۚفَمَنْ اَظْلَمُ مِمَّنْ كَذَّبَ بِاٰيٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَصَدَفَ عَنْهَا ۗسَنَجْزِى الَّذِيْنَ يَصْدِفُوْنَ عَنْ اٰيٰتِنَا سُوْۤءَ الْعَذَابِ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَصْدِفُوْنَ

     Nor can you say, “If only the Scriptures had been revealed to us, we would have been better guided than they.” Now there has come to you from your Lord a clear proof—a guide and mercy. Who then does more wrong than those who deny Allah’s revelations and turn away from them? We will reward those who turn away from Our revelations with a dreadful punishment for turning away.

158. هَلْ يَنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَّآ اَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُ اَوْ يَأْتِيَ رَبُّكَ اَوْ يَأْتِيَ بَعْضُ اٰيٰتِ رَبِّكَ ۗيَوْمَ يَأْتِيْ بَعْضُ اٰيٰتِ رَبِّكَ لَا يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا اِيْمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ اٰمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ اَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِيْٓ اِيْمَانِهَا خَيْرًاۗ قُلِ انْتَظِرُوْٓا اِنَّا مُنْتَظِرُوْنَ

     Hal yanẓurūna illā an ta'tiyahumul-malā'ikatu au ya'tiya rabbuka au ya'tiya ba‘ḍu āyāti rabbik(a), yauma ya'tī ba‘ḍu āyāti rabbika lā yanfa‘u nafsan īmānuhā lam takun āmanat min qablu au kasabat fī īmānihā khairā(n), qulintaẓirū innā muntaẓirūn(a).

     Are they awaiting the coming of the angels, or your Lord ˹Himself˺, or some of your Lord’s ˹major˺ signs? On the Day your Lord’s signs arrive, belief will not benefit those who did not believe earlier or those who did no good through their faith. Say, “Keep waiting! We too are waiting.”

159. اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ فَرَّقُوْا دِيْنَهُمْ وَكَانُوْا شِيَعًا لَّسْتَ مِنْهُمْ فِيْ شَيْءٍۗ اِنَّمَآ اَمْرُهُمْ اِلَى اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ يُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَفْعَلُوْنَ

     Innal-lażīna farraqū dīnahum wa kānū syiya‘al lasta minhum fī syai'(in), innamā amruhum ilallāhi ṡumma yunabbi'uhum bimā kānū yaf‘alūn(a).

     Indeed, you ˹O Prophet˺ are not responsible whatsoever for those who have divided their faith and split into sects. Their judgment rests only with Allah. And He will inform them of what they used to do.

160. مَنْ جَاۤءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهٗ عَشْرُ اَمْثَالِهَا ۚوَمَنْ جَاۤءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَلَا يُجْزٰٓى اِلَّا مِثْلَهَا وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُوْنَ

     Man jā'a bil-ḥasanati fa lahū ‘asyru amṡālihā, wa man jā'a bis-sayyi'ati falā yujzā illā miṡlahā wa hum lā yuẓlamūn(a).

     Whoever comes with a good deed will be rewarded tenfold. But whoever comes with a bad deed will be punished for only one. None will be wronged.

161. قُلْ اِنَّنِيْ هَدٰىنِيْ رَبِّيْٓ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ ەۚ دِيْنًا قِيَمًا مِّلَّةَ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ حَنِيْفًاۚ وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ

     Qul innanī hadānī rabbī ilā ṣirāṭim mustaqīm(in), dīnan qiyamam millata ibrāhīma ḥanīfā(n), wa mā kāna minal-musyrikīn(a).

     Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Surely my Lord has guided me to the Straight Path, a perfect way, the faith of Abraham, the upright, who was not one of the polytheists.”

162. قُلْ اِنَّ صَلَاتِيْ وَنُسُكِيْ وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِيْ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَۙ

     Qul inna ṣalātī wa nusukī wa maḥyāya wa mamātī lillāhi rabbil-‘ālamīn(a).

     Say, “Surely my prayer, my worship, my life, and my death are all for Allah—Lord of all worlds.

163. لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهٗ ۚوَبِذٰلِكَ اُمِرْتُ وَاَنَا۠ اَوَّلُ الْمُسْلِمِيْنَ

     Lā syarīka lah(ū), wa biżālika umirtu wa ana awwalul-muslimīn(a).

     He has no partner. So I am commanded, and so I am the first to submit.”

164. قُلْ اَغَيْرَ اللّٰهِ اَبْغِيْ رَبًّا وَّهُوَ رَبُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍۗ وَلَا تَكْسِبُ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ اِلَّا عَلَيْهَاۚ وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِّزْرَ اُخْرٰىۚ ثُمَّ اِلٰى رَبِّكُمْ مَّرْجِعُكُمْ فَيُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ فِيْهِ تَخْتَلِفُوْنَ

     Qul agairallāhi abgī rabbaw wa huwa rabbu kulli syai'(in), wa lā taksibu kullu nafsin illā ‘alaihā, wa lā taziru wāziratuw wizra ukhrā, ṡumma ilā rabbikum marji‘ukum fa yunabbi'ukum bimā kuntum fīhi takhtalifūn(a).

     Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Should I seek a lord other than Allah while He is the Lord of everything?” No one will reap except what they sow. No soul burdened with sin will bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you of your differences.

165. وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ جَعَلَكُمْ خَلٰۤىِٕفَ الْاَرْضِ وَرَفَعَ بَعْضَكُمْ فَوْقَ بَعْضٍ دَرَجٰتٍ لِّيَبْلُوَكُمْ فِيْ مَآ اٰتٰىكُمْۗ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ سَرِيْعُ الْعِقَابِۖ وَاِنَّهٗ لَغَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ ࣖ

     Wa huwal-lażī ja‘alakum khalā'ifal-arḍi wa rafa‘a ba‘ḍakum fauqa ba‘ḍin darajātil liyabluwakum fī mā ātākum, inna rabbaka sarī‘ul-‘iqāb(i), wa innahū lagafūrur raḥīm(un).

     He is the One Who has placed you as successors on earth and elevated some of you in rank over others, so He may test you with what He has given you. Surely your Lord is swift in punishment, but He is certainly All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
