تَبٰرَكَ الَّذِیْ نَزَّلَ الْفُرْقَانَ عَلٰی عَبْدِهٖ لِیَكُوْنَ لِلْعٰلَمِیْنَ نَذِیْرَا ۟ۙ
Blessed is He who sent down the Criterion upon His Servant that he may be to the worlds a warner -
لَّذِیْ لَهٗ مُلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَلَمْ یَتَّخِذْ وَلَدًا وَّلَمْ یَكُنْ لَّهٗ شَرِیْكٌ فِی الْمُلْكِ وَخَلَقَ كُلَّ شَیْءٍ فَقَدَّرَهٗ تَقْدِیْرًا ۟
He to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and who has not taken a son and has not had a partner in dominion and has created each thing and determined it with [precise] determination.
وَاتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖۤ اٰلِهَةً لَّا یَخْلُقُوْنَ شَیْـًٔا وَّهُمْ یُخْلَقُوْنَ وَلَا یَمْلِكُوْنَ لِاَنْفُسِهِمْ ضَرًّا وَّلَا نَفْعًا وَّلَا یَمْلِكُوْنَ مَوْتًا وَّلَا حَیٰوةً وَّلَا نُشُوْرًا ۟
But they have taken besides Him gods which create nothing, while they are created, and possess not for themselves any harm or benefit and possess not [power to cause] death or life or resurrection.
وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْۤا اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّاۤ اِفْكُ فْتَرٰىهُ وَاَعَانَهٗ عَلَیْهِ قَوْمٌ اٰخَرُوْنَ ۛۚ فَقَدْ جَآءُوْ ظُلْمًا وَّزُوْرًا ۟ۚۛ
And those who disbelieve say, "This [Qur’ān] is not except a falsehood he invented, and another people assisted him in it." But they have committed an injustice and a lie.
وَقَالُوْۤا اَسَاطِیْرُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ اكْتَتَبَهَا فَهِیَ تُمْلٰی عَلَیْهِ بُكْرَةً وَّاَصِیْلًا ۟
And they say, "Legends of the former peoples which he has written down, and they are dictated to him morning and afternoon."
قُلْ اَنْزَلَهُ الَّذِیْ یَعْلَمُ السِّرَّ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ غَفُوْرًا رَّحِیْمًا ۟
Say, [O Muḥammad], "It has been revealed by He who knows [every] secret within the heavens and the earth. Indeed, He is ever Forgiving and Merciful."
وَقَالُوْا مَالِ هٰذَا الرَّسُوْلِ یَاْكُلُ الطَّعَامَ وَیَمْشِیْ فِی الْاَسْوَاقِ ؕ لَوْلَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْهِ مَلَكٌ فَیَكُوْنَ مَعَهٗ نَذِیْرًا ۟ۙ
And they say, "What is this messenger that eats food and walks in the markets? Why was there not sent down to him an angel so he would be with him a warner?
اَوْ یُلْقٰۤی اِلَیْهِ كَنْزٌ اَوْ تَكُوْنُ لَهٗ جَنَّةٌ یَّاْكُلُ مِنْهَا ؕ وَقَالَ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ اِنْ تَتَّبِعُوْنَ اِلَّا رَجُلًا مَّسْحُوْرًا ۟
Or [why is not] a treasure presented to him [from heaven], or does he [not] have a garden from which he eats?" And the wrongdoers say, "You follow not but a man affected by magic."
اُنْظُرْ كَیْفَ ضَرَبُوْا لَكَ الْاَمْثَالَ فَضَلُّوْا فَلَا یَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ سَبِیْلًا ۟۠
Look how they strike for you comparisons; but they have strayed, so they cannot [find] a way.
تَبٰرَكَ الَّذِیْۤ اِنْ شَآءَ جَعَلَ لَكَ خَیْرًا مِّنْ ذٰلِكَ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ ۙ وَیَجْعَلْ لَّكَ قُصُوْرًا ۟
Blessed is He who, if He willed, could have made for you [something] better than that - gardens beneath which rivers flow - and could make for you palaces.
بَلْ كَذَّبُوْا بِالسَّاعَةِ ۫ وَاَعْتَدْنَا لِمَنْ كَذَّبَ بِالسَّاعَةِ سَعِیْرًا ۟ۚ
But they have denied the Hour, and We have prepared for those who deny the Hour a Blaze.
اِذَا رَاَتْهُمْ مِّنْ مَّكَانٍ بَعِیْدٍ سَمِعُوْا لَهَا تَغَیُّظًا وَّزَفِیْرًا ۟
When it [i.e., the Hellfire] sees them from a distant place, they will hear its fury and roaring.
وَاِذَاۤ اُلْقُوْا مِنْهَا مَكَانًا ضَیِّقًا مُّقَرَّنِیْنَ دَعَوْا هُنَالِكَ ثُبُوْرًا ۟ؕ
And when they are thrown into a narrow place therein bound in chains, they will cry out thereupon for destruction.
لَا تَدْعُوا الْیَوْمَ ثُبُوْرًا وَّاحِدًا وَّادْعُوْا ثُبُوْرًا كَثِیْرًا ۟
[They will be told], "Do not cry this Day for one destruction but cry for much destruction."
قُلْ اَذٰلِكَ خَیْرٌ اَمْ جَنَّةُ الْخُلْدِ الَّتِیْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ ؕ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَزَآءً وَّمَصِیْرًا ۟
Say, "Is that better or the Garden of Eternity which is promised to the righteous? It will be for them a reward and destination.
لَهُمْ فِیْهَا مَا یَشَآءُوْنَ خٰلِدِیْنَ ؕ كَانَ عَلٰی رَبِّكَ وَعْدًا مَّسْـُٔوْلًا ۟
For them therein is whatever they wish, [while] abiding eternally. It is ever upon your Lord a promise [worthy to be] requested.
وَیَوْمَ یَحْشُرُهُمْ وَمَا یَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ فَیَقُوْلُ ءَاَنْتُمْ اَضْلَلْتُمْ عِبَادِیْ هٰۤؤُلَآءِ اَمْ هُمْ ضَلُّوا السَّبِیْلَ ۟ؕ
And [mention] the Day He will gather them and that which they worship besides Allāh and will say, "Did you mislead these, My servants, or did they [themselves] stray from the way?"
قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَكَ مَا كَانَ یَنْۢبَغِیْ لَنَاۤ اَنْ نَّتَّخِذَ مِنْ دُوْنِكَ مِنْ اَوْلِیَآءَ وَلٰكِنْ مَّتَّعْتَهُمْ وَاٰبَآءَهُمْ حَتّٰی نَسُوا الذِّكْرَ ۚ وَكَانُوْا قَوْمًا بُوْرًا ۟
They will say, "Exalted are You! It was not for us to take besides You any allies [i.e., protectors]. But You provided comforts for them and their fathers until they forgot the message and became a people ruined."
فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوْكُمْ بِمَا تَقُوْلُوْنَ ۙ فَمَا تَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ صَرْفًا وَّلَا نَصْرًا ۚ وَمَنْ یَّظْلِمْ مِّنْكُمْ نُذِقْهُ عَذَابًا كَبِیْرًا ۟
So they will deny you, [disbelievers], in what you say, and you cannot avert [punishment] or [find] help. And whoever commits injustice among you - We will make him taste a great punishment.
وَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِیْنَ اِلَّاۤ اِنَّهُمْ لَیَاْكُلُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ وَیَمْشُوْنَ فِی الْاَسْوَاقِ ؕ وَجَعَلْنَا بَعْضَكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِتْنَةً ؕ اَتَصْبِرُوْنَ ۚ وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ بَصِیْرًا ۟۠
And We did not send before you, [O Muḥammad], any of the messengers except that they ate food and walked in the markets. And We have made some of you [people] as trial for others - will you have patience? And ever is your Lord, Seeing.
وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ لَا یَرْجُوْنَ لِقَآءَنَا لَوْلَاۤ اُنْزِلَ عَلَیْنَا الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ اَوْ نَرٰی رَبَّنَا ؕ لَقَدِ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا فِیْۤ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَعَتَوْ عُتُوًّا كَبِیْرًا ۟
And those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Why were not angels sent down to us, or [why] do we [not] see our Lord?" They have certainly become arrogant within themselves and [become] insolent with great insolence.
یَوْمَ یَرَوْنَ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةَ لَا بُشْرٰی یَوْمَىِٕذٍ لِّلْمُجْرِمِیْنَ وَیَقُوْلُوْنَ حِجْرًا مَّحْجُوْرًا ۟
The day they see the angels - no good tidings will there be that day for the criminals, and [the angels] will say, "Prevented and inaccessible."
وَقَدِمْنَاۤ اِلٰی مَا عَمِلُوْا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنٰهُ هَبَآءً مَّنْثُوْرًا ۟
And We will approach [i.e., regard] what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed.
اَصْحٰبُ الْجَنَّةِ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ خَیْرٌ مُّسْتَقَرًّا وَّاَحْسَنُ مَقِیْلًا ۟
The companions of Paradise, that Day, are [in] a better settlement and better resting place.
وَیَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ السَّمَآءُ بِالْغَمَامِ وَنُزِّلَ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ تَنْزِیْلًا ۟
And [mention] the Day when the heaven will split open with [emerging] clouds, and the angels will be sent down in successive descent.
اَلْمُلْكُ یَوْمَىِٕذِ لْحَقُّ لِلرَّحْمٰنِ ؕ وَكَانَ یَوْمًا عَلَی الْكٰفِرِیْنَ عَسِیْرًا ۟
True sovereignty, that Day, is for the Most Merciful. And it will be upon the disbelievers a difficult Day.
وَیَوْمَ یَعَضُّ الظَّالِمُ عَلٰی یَدَیْهِ یَقُوْلُ یٰلَیْتَنِی اتَّخَذْتُ مَعَ الرَّسُوْلِ سَبِیْلًا ۟
And the Day the wrongdoer will bite on his hands [in regret] he will say, "Oh, I wish I had taken with the Messenger a way.
یٰوَیْلَتٰی لَیْتَنِیْ لَمْ اَتَّخِذْ فُلَانًا خَلِیْلًا ۟
Oh, woe to me! I wish I had not taken that one as a friend.
لَقَدْ اَضَلَّنِیْ عَنِ الذِّكْرِ بَعْدَ اِذْ جَآءَنِیْ ؕ وَكَانَ الشَّیْطٰنُ لِلْاِنْسَانِ خَذُوْلًا ۟
He led me away from the remembrance after it had come to me. And ever is Satan, to man, a deserter."
وَقَالَ الرَّسُوْلُ یٰرَبِّ اِنَّ قَوْمِی اتَّخَذُوْا هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنَ مَهْجُوْرًا ۟
And the Messenger has said, "O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur’ān as [a thing] abandoned."
وَكَذٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِیٍّ عَدُوًّا مِّنَ الْمُجْرِمِیْنَ ؕ وَكَفٰی بِرَبِّكَ هَادِیًا وَّنَصِیْرًا ۟
And thus have We made for every prophet an enemy from among the criminals. But sufficient is your Lord as a guide and a helper.
وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَوْلَا نُزِّلَ عَلَیْهِ الْقُرْاٰنُ جُمْلَةً وَّاحِدَةً ۛۚ كَذٰلِكَ ۛۚ لِنُثَبِّتَ بِهٖ فُؤَادَكَ وَرَتَّلْنٰهُ تَرْتِیْلًا ۟
And those who disbelieve say, "Why was the Qur’ān not revealed to him all at once?" Thus [it is] that We may strengthen thereby your heart. And We have spaced it distinctly.
وَلَا یَاْتُوْنَكَ بِمَثَلٍ اِلَّا جِئْنٰكَ بِالْحَقِّ وَاَحْسَنَ تَفْسِیْرًا ۟ؕ
And they do not come to you with an example [i.e., argument] except that We bring you the truth and the best explanation.
اَلَّذِیْنَ یُحْشَرُوْنَ عَلٰی وُجُوْهِهِمْ اِلٰی جَهَنَّمَ ۙ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا وَّاَضَلُّ سَبِیْلًا ۟۠
The ones who are gathered on their faces to Hell - those are the worst in position and farthest astray in [their] way.
وَلَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسَی الْكِتٰبَ وَجَعَلْنَا مَعَهٗۤ اَخَاهُ هٰرُوْنَ وَزِیْرًا ۟ۚۖ
And We had certainly given Moses the Scripture and appointed with him his brother Aaron as an assistant.
فَقُلْنَا اذْهَبَاۤ اِلَی الْقَوْمِ الَّذِیْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا ؕ فَدَمَّرْنٰهُمْ تَدْمِیْرًا ۟ؕ
And We said, "Go both of you to the people who have denied Our signs." Then We destroyed them with [complete] destruction.
وَقَوْمَ نُوْحٍ لَّمَّا كَذَّبُوا الرُّسُلَ اَغْرَقْنٰهُمْ وَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ لِلنَّاسِ اٰیَةً ؕ وَاَعْتَدْنَا لِلظّٰلِمِیْنَ عَذَابًا اَلِیْمًا ۟ۚۖ
And the people of Noah - when they denied the messengers, We drowned them, and We made them for mankind a sign. And We have prepared for the wrongdoers a painful punishment.
وَّعَادًا وَّثَمُوْدَاۡ وَاَصْحٰبَ الرَّسِّ وَقُرُوْنًا بَیْنَ ذٰلِكَ كَثِیْرًا ۟
And [We destroyed] ʿAad and Thamūd and the companions of the well and many generations between them.
وَكُلًّا ضَرَبْنَا لَهُ الْاَمْثَالَ ؗ وَكُلًّا تَبَّرْنَا تَتْبِیْرًا ۟
And for each We presented examples [as warnings], and each We destroyed with [total] destruction.
وَلَقَدْ اَتَوْا عَلَی الْقَرْیَةِ الَّتِیْۤ اُمْطِرَتْ مَطَرَ السَّوْءِ ؕ اَفَلَمْ یَكُوْنُوْا یَرَوْنَهَا ۚ بَلْ كَانُوْا لَا یَرْجُوْنَ نُشُوْرًا ۟
And they have already come upon the town which was showered with a rain of evil [i.e., stones]. So have they not seen it? But they are not expecting resurrection.
وَاِذَا رَاَوْكَ اِنْ یَّتَّخِذُوْنَكَ اِلَّا هُزُوًا ؕ اَهٰذَا الَّذِیْ بَعَثَ اللّٰهُ رَسُوْلًا ۟
And when they see you, [O Muḥammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one whom Allāh has sent as a messenger?
اِنْ كَادَ لَیُضِلُّنَا عَنْ اٰلِهَتِنَا لَوْلَاۤ اَنْ صَبَرْنَا عَلَیْهَا ؕ وَسَوْفَ یَعْلَمُوْنَ حِیْنَ یَرَوْنَ الْعَذَابَ مَنْ اَضَلُّ سَبِیْلًا ۟
He almost would have misled us from our gods had we not been steadfast in [worship of] them." But they are going to know, when they see the punishment, who is farthest astray in [his] way.
اَرَءَیْتَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ اِلٰهَهٗ هَوٰىهُ ؕ اَفَاَنْتَ تَكُوْنُ عَلَیْهِ وَكِیْلًا ۟ۙ
Have you seen the one who takes as his god his own desire? Then would you be responsible for him?
اَمْ تَحْسَبُ اَنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ یَسْمَعُوْنَ اَوْ یَعْقِلُوْنَ ؕ اِنْ هُمْ اِلَّا كَالْاَنْعَامِ بَلْ هُمْ اَضَلُّ سَبِیْلًا ۟۠
Or do you think that most of them hear or reason? They are not except like livestock. Rather, they are [even] more astray in [their] way.
اَلَمْ تَرَ اِلٰی رَبِّكَ كَیْفَ مَدَّ الظِّلَّ ۚ وَلَوْ شَآءَ لَجَعَلَهٗ سَاكِنًا ۚ ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَا الشَّمْسَ عَلَیْهِ دَلِیْلًا ۟ۙ
Have you not considered your Lord - how He extends the shadow, and if He willed, He could have made it stationary? Then We made the sun for it an indication.
ثُمَّ قَبَضْنٰهُ اِلَیْنَا قَبْضًا یَّسِیْرًا ۟
Then We [retract and] hold it with Us for a brief grasp.
وَهُوَ الَّذِیْ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الَّیْلَ لِبَاسًا وَّالنَّوْمَ سُبَاتًا وَّجَعَلَ النَّهَارَ نُشُوْرًا ۟
And it is He who has made the night for you as clothing and sleep [a means for] rest and has made the day a resurrection.
وَهُوَ الَّذِیْۤ اَرْسَلَ الرِّیٰحَ بُشْرًاۢ بَیْنَ یَدَیْ رَحْمَتِهٖ ۚ وَاَنْزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً طَهُوْرًا ۟ۙ
And it is He who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy [i.e., rainfall], and We send down from the sky pure water
لِّنُحْیِ بِهٖ بَلْدَةً مَّیْتًا وَّنُسْقِیَهٗ مِمَّا خَلَقْنَاۤ اَنْعَامًا وَّاَنَاسِیَّ كَثِیْرًا ۟
That We may bring to life thereby a dead land and give it as drink to those We created of numerous livestock and men.
وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنٰهُ بَیْنَهُمْ لِیَذَّكَّرُوْا ۖؗ فَاَبٰۤی اَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ اِلَّا كُفُوْرًا ۟
And We have certainly distributed it among them that they might be reminded, but most of the people refuse except disbelief.
