Surah Al Anbya

Translation by:
Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

1. اِقْتَرَبَ لِلنَّاسِ حِسَابُهُمْ وَهُمْ فِيْ غَفْلَةٍ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ ۚ

   Iqtaraba lin-nāsi ḥisābuhum wa hum fī gaflatim mu‘riḍūn(a).

   ˹The time of˺ people’s judgment has drawn near, yet they are heedlessly turning away.

2. مَا يَأْتِيْهِمْ مِّنْ ذِكْرٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهِمْ مُّحْدَثٍ اِلَّا اسْتَمَعُوْهُ وَهُمْ يَلْعَبُوْنَ ۙ

   Mā ya'tīhim min żikrim mir rabbihim muḥdaṡin illastama‘ūhu wa hum yal‘abūn(a).

   Whatever new reminder comes to them from their Lord, they only listen to it jokingly,

3. لَاهِيَةً قُلُوْبُهُمْۗ وَاَسَرُّوا النَّجْوَىۖ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْاۖ هَلْ هٰذَآ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْۚ اَفَتَأْتُوْنَ السِّحْرَ وَاَنْتُمْ تُبْصِرُوْنَ

   Lāhiyatan qulūbuhum, wa asarrun-najwal-lażīna ẓalamū, hal hāżā illā basyarum miṡlukum, afa ta'tūnas-siḥra wa antum tubṣirūn(a).

   with their hearts ˹totally˺ distracted. The evildoers would converse secretly, ˹saying,˺ “Is this ˹one˺ not human like yourselves? Would you fall for ˹this˺ witchcraft, even though you can ˹clearly˺ see?”

4. قٰلَ رَبِّيْ يَعْلَمُ الْقَوْلَ فِى السَّمَاۤءِ وَالْاَرْضِۖ وَهُوَ السَّمِيْعُ الْعَلِيْمُ

   Qāla rabbī ya‘lamul-qaula fis-samā'i wal-arḍ(i), wa huwas-samī‘ul-‘alīm(u).

   The Prophet responded, “My Lord ˹fully˺ knows every word spoken in the heavens and the earth. For He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.”

5. بَلْ قَالُوْٓا اَضْغَاثُ اَحْلَامٍۢ بَلِ افْتَرٰىهُ بَلْ هُوَ شَاعِرٌۚ فَلْيَأْتِنَا بِاٰيَةٍ كَمَآ اُرْسِلَ الْاَوَّلُوْنَ

   Bal qālū aḍgāṡu aḥlāmim baliftarāhu bal huwa syā‘ir(un), falya'tinā bi'āyatin kamā ursilal-awwalūn(a).

   Yet they say, “This ˹Quran˺ is a set of confused dreams! No, he has fabricated it! No, he must be a poet! So let him bring us a ˹tangible˺ sign like those ˹prophets˺ sent before.”

6. مَآ اٰمَنَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ مِّنْ قَرْيَةٍ اَهْلَكْنٰهَاۚ اَفَهُمْ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ

   Mā āmanat qablahum min qaryatin ahlaknāhā, afahum yu'minūn(a).

   Not a ˹single˺ society We destroyed before them ever believed ˹after receiving the signs˺. Will these ˹pagans˺ then believe?

7. وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ اِلَّا رِجَالًا نُّوْحِيْٓ اِلَيْهِمْ فَسْـَٔلُوْٓا اَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ

   Wa mā arsalnā qablaka illā rijālan nūḥī ilaihim fas'alū ahlaż-żikri in kuntum lā ta‘lamūn(a).

   We did not send ˹messengers˺ before you ˹O Prophet˺ except mere men inspired by Us. If you ˹polytheists˺ do not know ˹this already˺, then ask those who have knowledge ˹of the Scriptures˺.

8. وَمَا جَعَلْنٰهُمْ جَسَدًا لَّا يَأْكُلُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ وَمَا كَانُوْا خٰلِدِيْنَ

   Wa mā ja‘alnāhum jasadal lā ya'kulūnaṭ-ṭa‘āma wa mā kānū khālidīn(a).

   We did not give those messengers ˹supernatural˺ bodies that did not need food, nor were they immortal.

9. ثُمَّ صَدَقْنٰهُمُ الْوَعْدَ فَاَنْجَيْنٰهُمْ وَمَنْ نَّشَاۤءُ وَاَهْلَكْنَا الْمُسْرِفِيْنَ

   Ṡumma ṣadaqnāhumul-wa‘da fa anjaināhum wa man nasyā'u wa ahlaknal-musrifīn(a).

   Then We fulfilled Our promise to them, saving them along with whoever We willed and destroying the transgressors.

10. لَقَدْ اَنْزَلْنَآ اِلَيْكُمْ كِتٰبًا فِيْهِ ذِكْرُكُمْۗ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ ࣖ

    Laqad anzalnā ilaikum kitāban fīhi żikrukum, afalā ta‘qilūn(a).

    We have surely revealed to you a Book, in which there is glory for you. Will you not then understand?

11. وَكَمْ قَصَمْنَا مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ كَانَتْ ظَالِمَةً وَّاَنْشَأْنَا بَعْدَهَا قَوْمًا اٰخَرِيْنَ

    Wa kam qaṣamnā min qaryatin kānat ẓālimataw wa ansya'nā ba‘dahā qauman ākharīn(a).

    ˹Imagine˺ how many societies of wrongdoers We have destroyed, raising up other people after them!

12. فَلَمَّآ اَحَسُّوْا بَأْسَنَآ اِذَا هُمْ مِّنْهَا يَرْكُضُوْنَ ۗ

    Falammā aḥassū ba'sanā iżā hum minhā yarkuḍūn(a).

    When the wrongdoers sensed ˹the arrival of˺ Our torment, they started to run away from their cities.

13. لَا تَرْكُضُوْا وَارْجِعُوْٓا اِلٰى مَآ اُتْرِفْتُمْ فِيْهِ وَمَسٰكِنِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْـَٔلُوْنَ

    Lā tarkuḍū warji‘ū ilā mā utriftum fīhi wa masākinikum la‘allakum tus'alūn(a).

    ˹They were told,˺ “Do not run away! Return to your luxuries and your homes, so you may be questioned ˹about your fate˺.”

14. قَالُوْا يٰوَيْلَنَآ اِنَّا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِيْنَ

    Qālū yā wailanā innā kunnā ẓālimīn(a).

    They cried, “Woe to us! We have surely been wrongdoers.”

15. فَمَا زَالَتْ تِّلْكَ دَعْوٰىهُمْ حَتّٰى جَعَلْنٰهُمْ حَصِيْدًا خٰمِدِيْنَ

    Famā zālat tilka da‘wāhum ḥattā ja‘alnāhum ḥaṣīdan khāmidīn(a).

    They kept repeating their cry until We mowed them down, ˹leaving them˺ lifeless.

16. وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاۤءَ وَالْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لٰعِبِيْنَ

    Wa mā khalaqnas-samā'a wal-arḍa wa mā bainahumā lā‘ibīn(a).

    We did not create the heavens and the earth and everything in between for sport.

17. لَوْ اَرَدْنَآ اَنْ نَّتَّخِذَ لَهْوًا لَّاتَّخَذْنٰهُ مِنْ لَّدُنَّآ ۖاِنْ كُنَّا فٰعِلِيْنَ

    Lau aradnā an nattakhiża lahwal lattakhażnāhum mil ladunnā, in kunnā fā‘ilīn(a).

    Had We intended to take ˹some˺ amusement, We could have found it in Our presence, if that had been Our Will.

18. بَلْ نَقْذِفُ بِالْحَقِّ عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ فَيَدْمَغُهٗ فَاِذَا هُوَ زَاهِقٌۗ وَلَكُمُ الْوَيْلُ مِمَّا تَصِفُوْنَ

    Bal naqżifu bil-ḥaqqi ‘alal-bāṭili fa yadmaguhū fa iżā huwa zāhiq(un), wa lakumul-wailu mimmā taṣifūn(a).

    In fact, We hurl the truth against falsehood, leaving it crushed, and it quickly vanishes. And woe be to you for what you claim!

19. وَلَهٗ مَنْ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهٗ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُوْنَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهٖ وَلَا يَسْتَحْسِرُوْنَ ۚ

    Wa lahū man fis-samāwāti wal-arḍ(i), wa man ‘indahū lā yastakbirūna ‘an ‘ibādatihī wa lā yastaḥsirūn(a).

    To Him belong all those in the heavens and the earth. And those nearest to Him are not too proud to worship Him, nor do they tire.

20. يُسَبِّحُوْنَ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لَا يَفْتُرُوْنَ

    Yusabbiḥūnal-laila wan-nahāra wa lā yafturūn(a).

    They glorify ˹Him˺ day and night, never wavering.

21. اَمِ اتَّخَذُوْٓا اٰلِهَةً مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ هُمْ يُنْشِرُوْنَ

    Amittakhażū ālihatam minal-arḍi hum yunsyirūn(a).

    Or have they taken gods from the earth, who can raise the dead?

22. لَوْ كَانَ فِيْهِمَآ اٰلِهَةٌ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ لَفَسَدَتَاۚ فَسُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوْنَ

    Lau kāna fīhimā ālihatun illallāhu lafasadatā, fa subḥānallāhi rabbil-‘arsyi ‘ammā yaṣifūn(a).

    Had there been other gods besides Allah in the heavens or the earth, both ˹realms˺ would have surely been corrupted. So Glorified is Allah, Lord of the Throne, far above what they claim.

23. لَا يُسْـَٔلُ عَمَّا يَفْعَلُ وَهُمْ يُسْـَٔلُوْنَ

    Lā yus'alu ‘ammā yaf‘alu wa hum yus'alūn(a).

    He cannot be questioned about what He does, but they will ˹all˺ be questioned.

24. اَمِ اتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖٓ اٰلِهَةً ۗقُلْ هَاتُوْا بُرْهَانَكُمْۚ هٰذَا ذِكْرُ مَنْ مَّعِيَ وَذِكْرُ مَنْ قَبْلِيْۗ بَلْ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَۙ الْحَقَّ فَهُمْ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ

    Amittakhażū min dūnihī ālihah(tan), qul hātū burhānakum, hāżā żikru mam ma‘iya wa żikru man qablī, bal akṡaruhum lā ya‘lamūnal-ḥaqqa fahum mu‘riḍūn(a).

    Or have they taken other gods besides Him? Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Show ˹me˺ your proof. Here is ˹the Quran,˺ the Reminder for those with me; along with ˹earlier Scriptures,˺ the Reminder for those before me.” But most of them do not know the truth, so they turn away.

25. وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ اِلَّا نُوْحِيْٓ اِلَيْهِ اَنَّهٗ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّآ اَنَا۠ فَاعْبُدُوْنِ

    Wa mā arsalnā min qablika mir rasūlin illā nūḥī ilaihi annahū lā ilāha illā ana fa‘budūn(i).

    We never sent a messenger before you ˹O Prophet˺ without revealing to him: “There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Me, so worship Me ˹alone˺.”

26. وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَلَدًا سُبْحٰنَهٗ ۗبَلْ عِبَادٌ مُّكْرَمُوْنَ ۙ

    Wa qāluttakhażar-raḥmānu waladan subḥānah(ū), bal ‘ibādum mukramūn(a).

    And they say, “The Most Compassionate has offspring!” Glory be to Him! In fact, those ˹angels˺ are only ˹His˺ honoured servants,

27. لَا يَسْبِقُوْنَهٗ بِالْقَوْلِ وَهُمْ بِاَمْرِهٖ يَعْمَلُوْنَ

    Lā yasbiqūnahū bil-qauli wa hum bi'amrihī ya‘malūn(a).

    who do not speak until He has spoken, ˹only˺ acting at His command.

28. يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا يَشْفَعُوْنَۙ اِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضٰى وَهُمْ مِّنْ خَشْيَتِهٖ مُشْفِقُوْنَ

    Ya‘lamū mā baina aidīhim wa mā khalfahum wa lā yasyfa‘ūna illā limanirtaḍā wa hum min khasy-yatihī musyfiqūn(a).

    He ˹fully˺ knows what is ahead of them and what is behind them. They do not intercede except for whom He approves, and they tremble in awe of Him.

29. ۞ وَمَنْ يَّقُلْ مِنْهُمْ اِنِّيْٓ اِلٰهٌ مِّنْ دُوْنِهٖ فَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِيْهِ جَهَنَّمَۗ كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ࣖ

    Wa may yaqul minhum innī ilāhun min dūnihī fa żālika najzīhi jahannam(a), każālika najziẓ-ẓālimīn(a).

    Whoever of them were to say, “I am a god besides Him,” they would be rewarded with Hell by Us. This is how We reward the wrongdoers.

30. اَوَلَمْ يَرَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اَنَّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ كَانَتَا رَتْقًا فَفَتَقْنٰهُمَاۗ وَجَعَلْنَا مِنَ الْمَاۤءِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَيٍّۗ اَفَلَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ

    Awalam yaral-lażīna kafarū annas-samāwāti wal-arḍa kānatā ratqan fa fataqnāhumā, wa ja‘alnā minal-mā'i kulla syai'in ḥayy(in), afalā yu'minūn(a).

    Do the disbelievers not realize that the heavens and earth were ˹once˺ one mass then We split them apart? And We created from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?

31. وَجَعَلْنَا فِى الْاَرْضِ رَوَاسِيَ اَنْ تَمِيْدَ بِهِمْۖ وَجَعَلْنَا فِيْهَا فِجَاجًا سُبُلًا لَّعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُوْنَ

    Wa ja‘alnā fil-arḍi rawāsiya an tamīda bihim, wa ja‘anā fīhā fijājan subulal la‘allahum yahtadūn(a).

    And We have placed firm mountains upon the earth so it does not shake with them, and made in it broad pathways so they may find their way.

32. وَجَعَلْنَا السَّمَاۤءَ سَقْفًا مَّحْفُوْظًاۚ وَهُمْ عَنْ اٰيٰتِهَا مُعْرِضُوْنَ

    Wa ja‘alnas-samā'a saqfam maḥfūẓā(n), wa hum ‘an āyātihā mu‘riḍūn(a).

    And We have made the sky a well-protected canopy, still they turn away from its signs.

33. وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَۗ كُلٌّ فِيْ فَلَكٍ يَّسْبَحُوْنَ

    Wa huwal-lażī khalaqal-laila wan-nahāra wasy-syamsa wal-qamar(a), kullun fī falakiy yasbaḥūn(a).

    And He is the One Who created the day and the night, the sun and the moon—each travelling in an orbit.

34. وَمَا جَعَلْنَا لِبَشَرٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ الْخُلْدَۗ اَفَا۟ىِٕنْ مِّتَّ فَهُمُ الْخٰلِدُوْنَ

    Wa mā ja‘alnā libasyarim min qablikal-khuld(a), afa'im mitta fahumul-khālidūn(a).

    We have not granted immortality to any human before you ˹O Prophet˺: so if you die, will they live forever?

35. كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَاۤىِٕقَةُ الْمَوْتِۗ وَنَبْلُوْكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً ۗوَاِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُوْنَ

    Kullu nafsin żā'iqatul-maut(i), wa nablūkum bisy-syarri wal-khairi fitnah(tan), wa ilainā turja‘ūn(a).

    Every soul will taste death. And We test you ˹O humanity˺ with good and evil as a trial, then to Us you will ˹all˺ be returned.

36. وَاِذَا رَاٰكَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اِنْ يَّتَّخِذُوْنَكَ اِلَّا هُزُوًاۗ اَهٰذَا الَّذِيْ يَذْكُرُ اٰلِهَتَكُمْۚ وَهُمْ بِذِكْرِ الرَّحْمٰنِ هُمْ كٰفِرُوْنَ

    Wa iżā ra'ākal-lażīna kafarū iy yattakhiżūnaka illā huzuwā(n), ahāżal-lażī yażkuru ālihatakum, wa hum biżikrir-raḥmāni hum kāfirūn(a).

    When the disbelievers see you ˹O Prophet˺, they only make fun of you, ˹saying,˺ “Is this the one who speaks ˹ill˺ of your gods?” while they disbelieve at the mention of the Most Compassionate.

37. خُلِقَ الْاِنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍۗ سَاُورِيْكُمْ اٰيٰتِيْ فَلَا تَسْتَعْجِلُوْنِ

    Khuliqal-insānu min ‘ajal(in), sa'urīkum āyātī falā tasta‘jilūn(i).

    Humankind is made of haste. I will soon show you My signs, so do not ask Me to hasten them.

38. وَيَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰى هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ

    Wa yaqūlūna matā hāżal-wa‘du in kuntum ṣādiqīn(a).

    They ask ˹the believers˺, “When will this threat come to pass if what you say is true?”

39. لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا حِيْنَ لَا يَكُفُّوْنَ عَنْ وُّجُوْهِهِمُ النَّارَ وَلَا عَنْ ظُهُوْرِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُنْصَرُوْنَ

    Lau ya‘lamul-lażīna kafarū ḥīna lā yakuffūna ‘aw wujūhihimun nāra wa lā ‘an ẓuhūrihim wa lā hum yunṣarūn(a).

    If only the disbelievers knew that a time will come when they will not be able to keep the Fire off their faces or backs, nor will they be helped.

40. بَلْ تَأْتِيْهِمْ بَغْتَةً فَتَبْهَتُهُمْ فَلَا يَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ رَدَّهَا وَلَا هُمْ يُنْظَرُوْنَ

    Bal ta'tīhim bagtatan fa tabhatuhum falā yastaṭī‘ūna raddahā wa lā hum yunẓarūn(a).

    In fact, the Hour will take them by surprise, leaving them stunned. So they will not be able to avert it, nor will it be delayed from them.

41. 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.

42. قُلْ مَنْ يَّكْلَؤُكُمْ بِالَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ مِنَ الرَّحْمٰنِۗ بَلْ هُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِمْ مُّعْرِضُوْنَ

    Qul may yakla'ukum bil-laili wan-nahāri minar-raḥmān(i), bal hum ‘an żikrihim mu‘riḍūn(a).

    Ask ˹them, O Prophet,˺ “Who can defend you by day or by night against the Most Compassionate?” Still they turn away from the remembrance of their Lord.

43. اَمْ لَهُمْ اٰلِهَةٌ تَمْنَعُهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِنَاۗ لَا يَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ نَصْرَ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ مِّنَّا يُصْحَبُوْنَ

    Am lahum ālihatun tamna‘uhum min dūninā, lā yastaṭī‘ūna naṣra anfusihim wa lā hum minnā yuṣḥabūn(a).

    Or do they have gods—other than Us—that can protect them? They cannot ˹even˺ protect themselves, nor will they be aided against Us.

44. بَلْ مَتَّعْنَا هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ وَاٰبَاۤءَهُمْ حَتّٰى طَالَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعُمُرُۗ اَفَلَا يَرَوْنَ اَنَّا نَأْتِى الْاَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ اَطْرَافِهَاۗ اَفَهُمُ الْغٰلِبُوْنَ

    Bal matta‘nā hā'ulā'i wa ābā'ahum ḥattā ṭāla ‘alaihimul-‘umur(u), afalā yarauna annā na'til-arḍa nanquṣuhā min aṭrāfihā, afahumul-gālibūn(a).

    In fact, We have allowed enjoyment for these ˹Meccans˺ and their forefathers for such a long time ˹that they took it for granted˺. Do they not see that We gradually reduce ˹their˺ land from its borders? Is it they who will then prevail?

45. قُلْ اِنَّمَآ اُنْذِرُكُمْ بِالْوَحْيِۖ وَلَا يَسْمَعُ الصُّمُّ الدُّعَاۤءَ اِذَا مَا يُنْذَرُوْنَ

    Qul innamā unżirukum bil-waḥy(i), wa lā yasma‘uṣ-ṣummud-du‘ā'a iżā mā yunżarūn(a).

    Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I warn you only by revelation.” But the deaf cannot hear the call when they are warned!

46. وَلَىِٕنْ مَّسَّتْهُمْ نَفْحَةٌ مِّنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّكَ لَيَقُوْلُنَّ يٰوَيْلَنَآ اِنَّا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِيْنَ

    Wa la'im massathum nafḥatum min ‘ażābi rabbika layaqūlunna yā wailanā innā kunnā ẓālimīn(a).

    If they were touched by even a breath of your Lord’s torment, they would certainly cry, “Woe to us! We have really been wrongdoers.”

47. وَنَضَعُ الْمَوَازِيْنَ الْقِسْطَ لِيَوْمِ الْقِيٰمَةِ فَلَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْـًٔاۗ وَاِنْ كَانَ مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنْ خَرْدَلٍ اَتَيْنَا بِهَاۗ وَكَفٰى بِنَا حٰسِبِيْنَ

    Wa naḍa‘ul-mawāzīnal-qisṭa liyaumil-qiyāmati falā tuẓlamu nafsun syai'ā(n), wa in kāna miṡqāla ḥabbatim min khardalin atainā bihā, wa kafā binā ḥāsibīn(a).

    We will set up the scales of justice on the Day of Judgment, so no soul will be wronged in the least. And ˹even˺ if a deed is the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth. And sufficient are We as a ˹vigilant˺ Reckoner.

48. وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوْسٰى وَهٰرُوْنَ الْفُرْقَانَ وَضِيَاۤءً وَّذِكْرًا لِّلْمُتَّقِيْنَ ۙ

    Wa laqad ātainā mūsā wa hārūnal-furqāna wa ḍiyā'aw wa żikral lil-muttaqīn(a).

    Indeed, We granted Moses and Aaron the standard ˹to distinguish between right and wrong˺—a light and a reminder for the righteous,

49. الَّذِيْنَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَيْبِ وَهُمْ مِّنَ السَّاعَةِ مُشْفِقُوْنَ

    Allażīna yakhsyauna rabbahum bil-gaibi wa hum minas-sā‘ati musyfiqūn(a).

    who are in awe of their Lord without seeing Him, and are fearful of the Hour.

50. وَهٰذَا ذِكْرٌ مُّبٰرَكٌ اَنْزَلْنٰهُۗ اَفَاَنْتُمْ لَهٗ مُنْكِرُوْنَ ࣖ

    Wa hāżā żikrum mubārakun anzalnāh(u), afa antum lahū munkirūn(a).

    And this ˹Quran˺ is a blessed reminder which We have revealed. Will you ˹pagans˺ then deny it?

51. ۞ وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَآ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ رُشْدَهٗ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَكُنَّا بِهٖ عٰلِمِيْنَ

    Wa laqad ātainā ibrāhīma rusydahū min qablu wa kunnā bihī ‘ālimīn(a).

    And indeed, We had granted Abraham sound judgment early on, for We knew him well ˹to be worthy of it˺.

52. اِذْ قَالَ لِاَبِيْهِ وَقَوْمِهٖ مَا هٰذِهِ التَّمَاثِيْلُ الَّتِيْٓ اَنْتُمْ لَهَا عٰكِفُوْنَ

    Iż qāla li'abīhi wa qaumihī mā hāżihit-tamāṡīlul-latī antum lahā ‘ākifūn(a).

    ˹Remember˺ when he questioned his father and his people, “What are these statues to which you are so devoted?”

53. قَالُوْا وَجَدْنَآ اٰبَاۤءَنَا لَهَا عٰبِدِيْنَ

    Qālū wajadnā ābā'anā lahā ‘ābidīn(a).

    They replied, “We found our forefathers worshipping them.”

54. قَالَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُمْ اَنْتُمْ وَاٰبَاۤؤُكُمْ فِيْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيْنٍ

    Qāla laqad kuntum antum wa ābā'ukum fī ḍalālim mubīn(in).

    He responded, “Indeed, you and your forefathers have been clearly astray.”

55. قَالُوْٓا اَجِئْتَنَا بِالْحَقِّ اَمْ اَنْتَ مِنَ اللّٰعِبِيْنَ

    Qālū aji'tanā bil-ḥaqqi am anta minal-lā‘ibīn(a).

    They asked, “Have you come to us with the truth, or is this a joke?”

56. قَالَ بَلْ رَّبُّكُمْ رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ الَّذِيْ فَطَرَهُنَّۖ وَاَنَا۠ عَلٰى ذٰلِكُمْ مِّنَ الشّٰهِدِيْنَ

    Qāla bar rabbukum rabbus-samāwāti wal-arḍil-lażī faṭarahunn(a), wa ana ‘alā żālikum minasy-syāhidīn(a).

    He replied, “In fact, your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, Who created them ˹both˺. And to that I bear witness.”

57. وَتَاللّٰهِ لَاَكِيْدَنَّ اَصْنَامَكُمْ بَعْدَ اَنْ تُوَلُّوْا مُدْبِرِيْنَ

    Wa tallāhi la'akīdanna aṣnāmakum ba‘da an tuwallū mudbirīn(a).

    ˹Then he said to himself,˺ “By Allah! I will surely plot against your idols after you have turned your backs and gone away.”

58. فَجَعَلَهُمْ جُذٰذًا اِلَّا كَبِيْرًا لَّهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ اِلَيْهِ يَرْجِعُوْنَ

    Fa ja‘alahum jużāżan illā kabīral lahum la‘allahum ilaihi yarji‘ūn(a).

    So he smashed them into pieces, except the biggest of them, so they might turn to it ˹for answers˺.

59. قَالُوْا مَنْ فَعَلَ هٰذَا بِاٰلِهَتِنَآ اِنَّهٗ لَمِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ

    Qālū man fa‘ala hāżā bi'ālihatinā innahū laminaẓ-ẓālimīn(a).

    They protested, “Who dared do this to our gods? It must be an evildoer!”

60. قَالُوْا سَمِعْنَا فَتًى يَّذْكُرُهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهٗٓ اِبْرٰهِيْمُ ۗ

    Qālū sami‘nā fatay yażkuruhum yuqālu lahū ibrāhīm(u).

    Some said, “We heard a young man, called Abraham, speaking ˹ill˺ of them.”

61. قَالُوْا فَأْتُوْا بِهٖ عَلٰٓى اَعْيُنِ النَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَشْهَدُوْنَ

    Qālū fa'tū bihī ‘alā a‘yunin-nāsi la‘allahum yasyhadūn(a).

    They demanded, “Bring him before the eyes of the people, so that they may witness ˹his trial˺.”

62. قَالُوْٓا ءَاَنْتَ فَعَلْتَ هٰذَا بِاٰلِهَتِنَا يٰٓاِبْرٰهِيْمُ ۗ

    Qālū a'anta fa‘alta hāżā bi'ālihatinā yā ibrāhīm(u).

    They asked, “Was it you who did this to our gods, O Abraham?”

63. قَالَ بَلْ فَعَلَهٗ كَبِيْرُهُمْ هٰذَا فَسْـَٔلُوْهُمْ اِنْ كَانُوْا يَنْطِقُوْنَ

    Qāla bal fa‘alahū kabīruhum hāżā fas'alūhum in kānū yanṭiqūn(a).

    He replied ˹sarcastically˺, “No, this one—the biggest of them—did it! So ask them, if they can talk!”

64. فَرَجَعُوْٓا اِلٰٓى اَنْفُسِهِمْ فَقَالُوْٓا اِنَّكُمْ اَنْتُمُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ ۙ

    Fa raja‘ū ilā anfusihim fa qālū innakum antumuẓ-ẓālimūn(a).

    So they came back to their senses, saying ˹to one another˺, “You yourselves are truly the wrongdoers!”

65. ثُمَّ نُكِسُوْا عَلٰى رُءُوْسِهِمْۚ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ يَنْطِقُوْنَ

    Ṡumma nukisū ‘alā ru'ūsihim, laqad ‘alimta mā hā'ulā'i yanṭiqūn(a).

    Then they ˹quickly˺ regressed to their ˹original˺ mind-set, ˹arguing,˺ “You already know that those ˹idols˺ cannot talk.”

66. قَالَ اَفَتَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَنْفَعُكُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَّلَا يَضُرُّكُمْ ۗ

    Qāla afata‘budūna min dūnillāhi mā lā yanfa‘ukum syai'aw wa lā yaḍurrukum.

    He rebuked ˹them˺, “Do you then worship—instead of Allah—what can neither benefit nor harm you in any way?

67. اُفٍّ لَّكُمْ وَلِمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ ۗاَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ

    Uffil lakum wa limā ta‘budūna min dūnillāh(i), afalā ta‘qilūn(a).

    Shame on you and whatever you worship instead of Allah! Do you not have any sense?”

68. قَالُوْا حَرِّقُوْهُ وَانْصُرُوْٓا اٰلِهَتَكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ فٰعِلِيْنَ

    Qālū ḥarriqūhu wanṣurū ālihatakum in kuntum fā‘ilīn(a).

    They concluded, “Burn him up to avenge your gods, if you must act.”

69. قُلْنَا يٰنَارُ كُوْنِيْ بَرْدًا وَّسَلٰمًا عَلٰٓى اِبْرٰهِيْمَ ۙ

    Qulnā yā nāru kūnī bardaw wa salāman ‘alā ibrāhīm(a).

    We ordered, “O fire! Be cool and safe for Abraham!”

70. وَاَرَادُوْا بِهٖ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنٰهُمُ الْاَخْسَرِيْنَ ۚ

    Wa arādū bihī kaidan fa ja‘alnāhumul-akhsarīn(a).

    They had sought to harm him, but We made them the worst losers.

71. وَنَجَّيْنٰهُ وَلُوْطًا اِلَى الْاَرْضِ الَّتِيْ بٰرَكْناَ فِيْهَا لِلْعٰلَمِيْنَ

    Wa najjaināhu wa lūṭan ilal-arḍil-latī bāraknā fīhā lil-‘ālamīn(a).

    Then We delivered him, along with Lot, to the land We had showered with blessings for all people.

72. وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗٓ اِسْحٰقَ وَيَعْقُوْبَ نَافِلَةً ۗوَكُلًّا جَعَلْنَا صٰلِحِيْنَ

    Wa wahabnā lahū isḥāqa wa ya‘qūba nāfilah(tan), wa kullan ja‘alnā ṣāliḥīn(a).

    And We blessed him with Isaac ˹as a son˺ and Jacob ˹as a grandson˺, as an additional favour—making all of them righteous.

73. وَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَىِٕمَّةً يَّهْدُوْنَ بِاَمْرِنَا وَاَوْحَيْنَآ اِلَيْهِمْ فِعْلَ الْخَيْرٰتِ وَاِقَامَ الصَّلٰوةِ وَاِيْتَاۤءَ الزَّكٰوةِۚ وَكَانُوْا لَنَا عٰبِدِيْنَ ۙ

    Wa ja‘alnāhum a'immatay yahdūna bi'amrinā wa auḥainā ilaihim fi‘lal-khairāti wa iqāmaṣ-ṣalāti wa ītā'az-zakāh(ti), wa kānū lanā ‘ābidīn(a).

    We ˹also˺ made them leaders, guiding by Our command, and inspired them to do good deeds, establish prayer, and pay alms-tax. And they were devoted to Our worship.

74. وَلُوْطًا اٰتَيْنٰهُ حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًا وَّنَجَّيْنٰهُ مِنَ الْقَرْيَةِ الَّتِيْ كَانَتْ تَّعْمَلُ الْخَبٰۤىِٕثَ ۗاِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فٰسِقِيْنَۙ

    Wa lūṭan ātaināhu ḥumkaw wa ‘ilmaw wa najjaināhu minal-qaryatil-latī kānat ta‘malul-khabā'iṡ(a), innahum kānū qauma sau'in fāsiqīn(a).

    And to Lot We gave wisdom and knowledge, and delivered him from the society engrossed in shameful practices. They were certainly an evil, rebellious people.

75. وَاَدْخَلْنٰهُ فِيْ رَحْمَتِنَاۗ اِنَّهٗ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ ࣖ

    Wa adkhalnāhu fī raḥmatinā, innahū minaṣ-ṣāliḥīn(a).

    And We admitted him into Our mercy, ˹for˺ he was truly one of the righteous.

76. وَنُوْحًا اِذْ نَادٰى مِنْ قَبْلُ فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ فَنَجَّيْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗ مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيْمِ ۚ

    Wa nūḥan iż nādā min qablu fastajabnā lahū fa najjaināhu wa ahlahū minal-karbil-‘aẓīm(i).

    And ˹remember˺ when Noah had cried out to Us earlier, so We responded to him and delivered him and his family from the great distress.

77. وَنَصَرْنٰهُ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِيْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِنَاۗ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فَاَغْرَقْنٰهُمْ اَجْمَعِيْنَ

    Wa naṣarnāhu minal-qaumil-lażīna każżabū bi'āyātinā, innahum kānū qauma sau'in fa agraqnāhum ajma‘īn(a).

    And We made him prevail over those who had rejected Our signs. They were truly an evil people, so We drowned them all.

78. وَدَاوٗدَ وَسُلَيْمٰنَ اِذْ يَحْكُمٰنِ فِى الْحَرْثِ اِذْ نَفَشَتْ فِيْهِ غَنَمُ الْقَوْمِۚ وَكُنَّا لِحُكْمِهِمْ شٰهِدِيْنَ ۖ

    Wa dāwūda wa sulaimāna iż yaḥkumāni fil-ḥarṡi iż nafasyat fīhi ganamul-qaum(i), wa kunnā liḥukmihim syāhidīn(a).

    And ˹remember˺ when David and Solomon passed judgment regarding the crops ruined ˹at night˺ by someone’s sheep, and We were witness to their judgments.

79. فَفَهَّمْنٰهَا سُلَيْمٰنَۚ وَكُلًّا اٰتَيْنَا حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًاۖ وَّسَخَّرْنَا مَعَ دَاوٗدَ الْجِبَالَ يُسَبِّحْنَ وَالطَّيْرَۗ وَكُنَّا فٰعِلِيْنَ

    Fa fahhamnāhā sulaimān(a), wa kullan ātainā ḥukmaw wa ‘ilmā(n), wa sakhkharnā ma‘a dāwūdal-jibāla yusabbiḥna waṭ-ṭair(a), wa kunnā fā‘ilīn(a).

    We guided ˹young˺ Solomon to a fairer settlement, and granted each of them wisdom and knowledge. We subjected the mountains as well as the birds to hymn ˹Our praises˺ along with David. It is We Who did ˹it all˺.

80. وَعَلَّمْنٰهُ صَنْعَةَ لَبُوْسٍ لَّكُمْ لِتُحْصِنَكُمْ مِّنْۢ بَأْسِكُمْۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ شٰكِرُوْنَ

    Wa ‘allamnāhu ṣan‘ata labūsil lakum lituḥṣinakum mim ba'sikum, fahal antum syākirūn(a).

    We taught him the art of making body armour to protect you in battle. Will you then be grateful?

81. وَلِسُلَيْمٰنَ الرِّيْحَ عَاصِفَةً تَجْرِيْ بِاَمْرِهٖٓ اِلَى الْاَرْضِ الَّتِيْ بٰرَكْنَا فِيْهَاۗ وَكُنَّا بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عٰلِمِيْنَ

    Wa lisulaimānar-rīḥa ‘āṣifatan tajrī bi'amrihī ilal-arḍil-latī bāraknā fīhā, wa kunnā bikulli syai'in ‘ālimīn(a).

    And to Solomon We subjected the raging winds, blowing by his command to the land We had showered with blessings. It is We Who know everything.

82. وَمِنَ الشَّيٰطِيْنِ مَنْ يَّغُوْصُوْنَ لَهٗ وَيَعْمَلُوْنَ عَمَلًا دُوْنَ ذٰلِكَۚ وَكُنَّا لَهُمْ حٰفِظِيْنَ ۙ

    Wa minasy-syayāṭīna may yagūṣūna lahū wa ya‘malūna ‘amalan dūna żālik(a), wa kunnā lahum ḥāfiẓīn(a).

    And ˹We subjected˺ some jinn that dived for him, and performed other duties. It is We Who kept them in check.

83. ۞ وَاَيُّوْبَ اِذْ نَادٰى رَبَّهٗٓ اَنِّيْ مَسَّنِيَ الضُّرُّ وَاَنْتَ اَرْحَمُ الرّٰحِمِيْنَ ۚ

    Wa ayyūba iż nādā rabbahū annī massaniyaḍ-ḍurru wa anta arḥamur-rāḥimīn(a).

    And ˹remember˺ when Job cried out to his Lord, “I have been touched with adversity, and You are the Most Merciful of the merciful.”

84. فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ فَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهٖ مِنْ ضُرٍّ وَّاٰتَيْنٰهُ اَهْلَهٗ وَمِثْلَهُمْ مَّعَهُمْ رَحْمَةً مِّنْ عِنْدِنَا وَذِكْرٰى لِلْعٰبِدِيْنَ ۚ

    Fastajabnā lahū fa kasyafnā mā bihī min ḍurriw wa ātaināhu ahlahū wa miṡlahum ma‘ahum raḥmatam min ‘indinā wa żikrā lil-‘ābidīn(a).

    So We answered his prayer and removed his adversity, and gave him back his family, twice as many, as a mercy from Us and a lesson for the ˹devoted˺ worshippers.

85. وَاِسْمٰعِيْلَ وَاِدْرِيْسَ وَذَا الْكِفْلِۗ كُلٌّ مِّنَ الصّٰبِرِيْنَ ۙ

    Wa ismā‘īla wa idrīsa wa żal-kifl(i), kullum minaṣ-ṣābirīn(a).

    And ˹remember˺ Ishmael, Enoch, and Ⱬul-Kifl. They were all steadfast.

86. وَاَدْخَلْنٰهُمْ فِيْ رَحْمَتِنَاۗ اِنَّهُمْ مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ

    Wa adkhalnāhum fī raḥmatinā, innahum minaṣ-ṣāliḥīn(a).

    We admitted them into Our mercy, for they were truly of the righteous.

87. وَذَا النُّوْنِ اِذْ ذَّهَبَ مُغَاضِبًا فَظَنَّ اَنْ لَّنْ نَّقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ فَنَادٰى فِى الظُّلُمٰتِ اَنْ لَّآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّآ اَنْتَ سُبْحٰنَكَ اِنِّيْ كُنْتُ مِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۚ

    Wa żan-nūni iż żahaba mugāḍiban fa ẓanna allan naqdira ‘alaihi fa nādā fiẓ-ẓulumāti allā ilāha illā anta subḥānaka innī kuntu minaẓ-ẓālimīn(a).

    And ˹remember˺ when the Man of the Whale stormed off ˹from his city˺ in a rage, thinking We would not restrain him. Then in the ˹veils of˺ darkness he cried out, “There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except You. Glory be to You! I have certainly done wrong.”

88. فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗۙ وَنَجَّيْنٰهُ مِنَ الْغَمِّۗ وَكَذٰلِكَ نُـْۨجِى الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ

    Fastajabnā lahū wa najjaināhu minal-gamm(i), wa każālika nunjil-mu'minīn(a).

    So We answered his prayer and rescued him from anguish. And so do We save the ˹true˺ believers.

89. وَزَكَرِيَّآ اِذْ نَادٰى رَبَّهٗ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِيْ فَرْدًا وَّاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوٰرِثِيْنَ ۚ

    Wa zakariyyā iż nādā rabbahū rabbi lā tażarnī fardaw wa anta khairul-wāriṡīn(a).

    And ˹remember˺ when Zachariah cried out to his Lord, “My Lord! Do not leave me childless, though You are the Best of Successors.”

90. فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗ ۖوَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗ يَحْيٰى وَاَصْلَحْنَا لَهٗ زَوْجَهٗۗ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا يُسٰرِعُوْنَ فِى الْخَيْرٰتِ وَيَدْعُوْنَنَا رَغَبًا وَّرَهَبًاۗ وَكَانُوْا لَنَا خٰشِعِيْنَ

    Fastajabnā lah(ū), wa wahabnā lahū yaḥyā wa aṣlaḥnā lahū zaujah(ū), innahum kānū yusāri‘ūna fil-khairāti wa yad‘ūnanā ragabaw wa rahabā(n), wa kānū lanā khāsyi‘īn(a).

    So We answered his prayer, granted him John, and made his wife fertile. Indeed, they used to race in doing good, and call upon Us with hope and fear, totally humbling themselves before Us.

91. وَالَّتِيْٓ اَحْصَنَتْ فَرْجَهَا فَنَفَخْنَا فِيْهَا مِنْ رُّوْحِنَا وَجَعَلْنٰهَا وَابْنَهَآ اٰيَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِيْنَ

    Wal-latī aḥṣanat farjahā fa nafakhnā fīhā mir rūḥinā wa ja‘alnāhā wabnahā āyatal lil-‘ālamīn(a).

    And ˹remember˺ the one who guarded her chastity, so We breathed into her through Our angel, ˹Gabriel,˺ making her and her son a sign for all peoples.

92. اِنَّ هٰذِهٖٓ اُمَّتُكُمْ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةًۖ وَّاَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوْنِ

    Inna hāżihī ummatukum ummataw wāḥidah(tan), wa ana rabbukum fa‘budūn(i).

    ˹O prophets!˺ Indeed, this religion of yours is ˹only˺ one, and I am your Lord, so worship Me ˹alone˺.

93. وَتَقَطَّعُوْٓا اَمْرَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْۗ كُلٌّ اِلَيْنَا رٰجِعُوْنَ ࣖ

    Wa taqaṭṭa‘ū amrahum bainahum, kullun ilainā rāji‘ūn(a).

    Yet the people have divided it into sects. But to Us they will all return.

94. فَمَنْ يَّعْمَلْ مِنَ الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَا كُفْرَانَ لِسَعْيِهٖۚ وَاِنَّا لَهٗ كٰتِبُوْنَ

    Famay ya‘mal minaṣ-ṣāliḥāti wa huwa mu'minun falā kufrāna lisa‘yih(ī), wa innā lahū kātibūn(a).

    So whoever does good and is a believer will never be denied ˹the reward for˺ their striving, for We are recording it all.

95. وَحَرٰمٌ عَلٰى قَرْيَةٍ اَهْلَكْنٰهَآ اَنَّهُمْ لَا يَرْجِعُوْنَ

    Wa ḥarāmun ‘alā qaryatin ahlaknāhā, innahum lā yarji‘ūn(a).

    It is impossible for a society which We have destroyed to ever rise again,

96. حَتّٰىٓ اِذَا فُتِحَتْ يَأْجُوْجُ وَمَأْجُوْجُ وَهُمْ مِّنْ كُلِّ حَدَبٍ يَّنْسِلُوْنَ

    Ḥattā iżā futiḥat ya'jūju wa ma'jūju wa hum min kulli ḥadabiy yansilūn(a).

    until ˹after˺ Gog and Magog have broken loose ˹from the barrier˺, swarming down from every hill,

97. وَاقْتَرَبَ الْوَعْدُ الْحَقُّ فَاِذَا هِيَ شَاخِصَةٌ اَبْصَارُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْاۗ يٰوَيْلَنَا قَدْ كُنَّا فِيْ غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هٰذَا بَلْ كُنَّا ظٰلِمِيْنَ

    Waqtarabal-wa‘dul-ḥaqqu fa iżā hiya syākhiṣatun abṣārul-lażīna kafarū, yā wailanā qad kunnā fī gaflatim min hāżā bal kunnā ẓālimīn(a).

    ushering in the True Promise. Then—behold!—the disbelievers will stare ˹in horror, crying,˺ “Oh, woe to us! We have truly been heedless of this. In fact, we have been wrongdoers.”

98. اِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ حَصَبُ جَهَنَّمَۗ اَنْتُمْ لَهَا وٰرِدُوْنَ

    Innakum wa mā ta‘budūna min dūnillāhi ḥaṣabu jahannam(a), antum lahā wāridūn(a).

    Certainly you ˹disbelievers˺ and whatever you worship instead of Allah will be the fuel of Hell. You are ˹all˺ bound to enter it.

99. لَوْ كَانَ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ اٰلِهَةً مَّا وَرَدُوْهَاۗ وَكُلٌّ فِيْهَا خٰلِدُوْنَ

    Lau kāna hā'ulā'i ālihatam mā waradūhā, wa kullun fīhā khālidūn(a).

    Had those idols been ˹true˺ gods, they would not have entered it. And they will be there forever.

100. لَهُمْ فِيْهَا زَفِيْرٌ وَّهُمْ فِيْهَا لَا يَسْمَعُوْنَ

     Lahum fīhā zafīruw wa hum fīhā lā yasma‘ūn(a).

     In it they will groan, and will not be able to hear.

101. اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ سَبَقَتْ لَهُمْ مِّنَّا الْحُسْنٰىٓۙ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ عَنْهَا مُبْعَدُوْنَ ۙ

     Innal-lażīna sabaqat lahum minnal-ḥusnā, ulā'ika ‘anhā mub‘adūn(a).

     Surely those for whom We have destined the finest reward will be kept far away from Hell,

102. لَا يَسْمَعُوْنَ حَسِيْسَهَاۚ وَهُمْ فِيْ مَا اشْتَهَتْ اَنْفُسُهُمْ خٰلِدُوْنَ ۚ

     Lā yasma‘ūna ḥasīsahā, wa hum fīmasytahat anfusuhum khālidūn(a).

     not even hearing the slightest hissing from it. And they will delight forever in what their souls desire.

103. لَا يَحْزُنُهُمُ الْفَزَعُ الْاَكْبَرُ وَتَتَلَقّٰىهُمُ الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُۗ هٰذَا يَوْمُكُمُ الَّذِيْ كُنْتُمْ تُوْعَدُوْنَ

     Lā yaḥzunuhumul-faza‘ul-akbaru wa tatalaqqāhumul-malā'ikah(tu), hāżā yaumukumul-lażī kuntum tū‘adūn(a).

     The Supreme Horror ˹of that Day˺ will not disturb them, and the angels will greet them, ˹saying,˺ “This is your Day, which you have been promised.”

104. يَوْمَ نَطْوِى السَّمَاۤءَ كَطَيِّ السِّجِلِّ لِلْكُتُبِۗ كَمَا بَدَأْنَآ اَوَّلَ خَلْقٍ نُّعِيْدُهٗۗ وَعْدًا عَلَيْنَاۗ اِنَّا كُنَّا فٰعِلِيْنَ

     Yauma naṭwis-samā'a kaṭayyis-sijilli lil-kutib(i), kamā bada'nā awwala khalqin nu‘īduh(ū), wa‘dan ‘alainā, innā kunnā fā‘ilīn(a).

     On that Day We will roll up the heavens like a scroll of writings. Just as We produced the first creation, ˹so˺ shall We reproduce it. That is a promise binding on Us. We truly uphold ˹Our promises˺!

105. وَلَقَدْ كَتَبْنَا فِى الزَّبُوْرِ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ الذِّكْرِ اَنَّ الْاَرْضَ يَرِثُهَا عِبَادِيَ الصّٰلِحُوْنَ

     Wa laqad katabnā fiz-zabūri mim ba‘diż-żikri annal-arḍa yariṡuhā ‘ibādiyaṣ-ṣāliḥūn(a).

     Surely, following the ˹heavenly˺ Record, We decreed in the Scriptures: “My righteous servants shall inherit the land.”

106. اِنَّ فِيْ هٰذَا لَبَلٰغًا لِّقَوْمٍ عٰبِدِيْنَ ۗ

     Inna fī hāżā labalāgal liqaumin ‘ābidīn(a).

     Surely this ˹Quran˺ is sufficient ˹as a reminder˺ for those devoted to worship.

107. وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنٰكَ اِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِيْنَ

     Wa mā arsalnāka illā raḥmatal lil-‘ālamīn(a).

     We have sent you ˹O Prophet˺ only as a mercy for the whole world.

108. قُلْ اِنَّمَا يُوْحٰىٓ اِلَيَّ اَنَّمَآ اِلٰهُكُمْ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌۚ فَهَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّسْلِمُوْنَ

     Qul innamā yūḥā ilayya annamā ilāhukum ilāhuw wāḥid(un), fahal antum muslimūn(a).

     Say, “What has been revealed to me is this: ‘Your God is only One God.’ Will you then submit?”

109. فَاِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ اٰذَنْتُكُمْ عَلٰى سَوَاۤءٍۗ وَاِنْ اَدْرِيْٓ اَقَرِيْبٌ اَمْ بَعِيْدٌ مَّا تُوْعَدُوْنَ

     Fa in tawallau fa qul āżantukum ‘alā sawā'(in), wa in adrī aqarībun am ba‘īdum mā tū‘adūn(a).

     If they turn away, then say, “I have warned you all equally. I do not know if what you are threatened with is near or far.

110. اِنَّهٗ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تَكْتُمُوْنَ

     Innahū ya‘lamul-jahra minal-qauli wa ya‘lamu mā taktumūn(a).

     Allah surely knows what you say openly and whatever you hide.

111. وَاِنْ اَدْرِيْ لَعَلَّهٗ فِتْنَةٌ لَّكُمْ وَمَتَاعٌ اِلٰى حِيْنٍ

     Wa in adrī la‘allahū fitnatul lakum wa matā‘un ilā ḥīn(in).

     I do not know if this ˹delay˺ is possibly a test for you and an enjoyment for a while.”

112. قٰلَ رَبِّ احْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّۗ وَرَبُّنَا الرَّحْمٰنُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلٰى مَا تَصِفُوْنَ ࣖ

     Qāla rabbiḥkum bil-ḥaqq(i), wa rabbunar-raḥmānul-musta‘ānu ‘alā mā taṣifūn(a).

     ˹In the end,˺ the Prophet said, “My Lord! Judge ˹between us˺ in truth. And our Lord is the Most Compassionate, Whose help is sought against what you claim.”
