بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
وَٱلصَّـٰٓفَّـٰتِ صَفًّا
I swear by those who range themselves in ranks
1
فَٱلزَّٰجِرَٰتِ زَجْرًا
and by those who cast out demons,
2
فَٱلتَّـٰلِيَـٰتِ ذِكْرًا
and by those who proclaim the message of Allah
3
إِنَّ إِلَـٰهَكُمْ لَوَٰحِدٌ
that surely your God is One,
4
رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَرَبُّ ٱلْمَشَـٰرِقِ
the Rabb of the heavens and of the earth and all that lies between them, and the Rabb of the easts (every point and place at the rising of the sun).
5
إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا ٱلسَّمَآءَ ٱلدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ ٱلْكَوَاكِبِ
We have indeed decked the worldly heaven with beautiful stars
6
وَحِفْظًا مِّن كُلِّ شَيْطَـٰنٍ مَّارِدٍ
and have secured it against all obstinate rebellious shaitans.
7
لَّا يَسَّمَّعُونَ إِلَى ٱلْمَلَإِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ وَيُقْذَفُونَ مِن كُلِّ جَانِبٍ
They cannot even hear the words of the exalted assembly of angels and they are darted at from every side if they try to get closer,
8
دُحُورًا ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَاصِبٌ
they are repulsed and are under a constant chastisement.
9
إِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ ٱلْخَطْفَةَ فَأَتْبَعَهُۥ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ
Eavesdroppers are persuaded by a flaming fire of piercing brightness.
10
فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَهُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَم مَّنْ خَلَقْنَآ ۚ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَـٰهُم مِّن طِينٍ لَّازِبٍۭ
Ask them: "What is more difficult - their creation or the rest of Our creation? - Them We have created out of a sticky clay.
11
بَلْ عَجِبْتَ وَيَسْخَرُونَ
You marvel at the wonders of Allah's creation, while they ridicule at it.
12
وَإِذَا ذُكِّرُوا۟ لَا يَذْكُرُونَ
When they are admonished, they pay no heed,
13
وَإِذَا رَأَوْا۟ ءَايَةً يَسْتَسْخِرُونَ
and when they see a sign, they mock at it
14
وَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَـٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ
and say: "This is nothing but plain sorcery.
15
أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
What! When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we be raised to life again
16
أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ
- we and also our forefathers of the ancient time?"
17
قُلْ نَعَمْ وَأَنتُمْ دَٰخِرُونَ
Tell them: "Yes and you shall be held up to shame."
18
فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ فَإِذَا هُمْ يَنظُرُونَ
It will be just a single cry, and they will see it all with their own eyes.
19
وَقَالُوا۟ يَـٰوَيْلَنَا هَـٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
"Ah, woe to us!" They shall exclaim, "this is the Day of Judgement!"
20
هَـٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
It will be said: "Yes, this is the same Day of Judgement which you used to deny".
21
ٱحْشُرُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ وَأَزْوَٰجَهُمْ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْبُدُونَ
It will be commanded: "Gather all the wrongdoers, their spouses and those whom they used to worship
22
مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَٱهْدُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
besides Allah and show them the way to hell.
23
وَقِفُوهُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُم مَّسْـُٔولُونَ
When they will all be gathered and angels will start pushing them towards hell, Allah shall say: "Stop for a while, they have to be questioned:
24
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنَاصَرُونَ
"What is the matter with you today that you do not help each other?"
25
بَلْ هُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ مُسْتَسْلِمُونَ
Nay! On that Day they shall all be submissive.
26
وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
Some of them will step forward to question one another.
27
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ تَأْتُونَنَا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ
The followers will say to their leaders: "It was you who used to come at us from the right hand (right hand is a symbol of authority) and forced us towards the wrong way."
28
قَالُوا۟ بَل لَّمْ تَكُونُوا۟ مُؤْمِنِينَ
They will reply: "Nay! But it was you who had no faith.
29
وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا عَلَيْكُم مِّن سُلْطَـٰنٍۭ ۖ بَلْ كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا طَـٰغِينَ
we had no power over you, the fact is that you were an inordinate people;
30
فَحَقَّ عَلَيْنَا قَوْلُ رَبِّنَآ ۖ إِنَّا لَذَآئِقُونَ
true is the verdict which Our Rabb has passed upon us, we shall indeed taste the punishment of our sins:
31
فَأَغْوَيْنَـٰكُمْ إِنَّا كُنَّا غَـٰوِينَ
We misled you, for we ourselves were astray."
32
فَإِنَّهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ
So on that Day they shall all be partners in the punishment.
33
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
Thus, shall We deal with the criminals;
34
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوٓا۟ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ
for when they were told: "There is no god except Allah," they used to puff themselves up with pride
35
وَيَقُولُونَ أَئِنَّا لَتَارِكُوٓا۟ ءَالِهَتِنَا لِشَاعِرٍ مَّجْنُونٍۭ
and say: "What! Should we give up our gods for the sake of a mad poet?"
36
بَلْ جَآءَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَصَدَّقَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Whereas he had come with the truth and had confirmed the message of prior Rasools.
37
إِنَّكُمْ لَذَآئِقُوا۟ ٱلْعَذَابِ ٱلْأَلِيمِ
Then it will be said: "You are surely going to taste the painful punishment:
38
وَمَا تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
and this reward is nothing except what you had done.
39
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
But the sincere devotees of Allah
40
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ رِزْقٌ مَّعْلُومٌ
shall have familiar sustenance
41
فَوَٰكِهُ ۖ وَهُم مُّكْرَمُونَ
- fruits, and shall be honored
42
فِى جَنَّـٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
in the gardens of delight.
43
عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مُّتَقَـٰبِلِينَ
Reclining face to face upon soft couches,
44
يُطَافُ عَلَيْهِم بِكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍۭ
they shall be served with goblets filled at a fountain of wine,
45
بَيْضَآءَ لَذَّةٍ لِّلشَّـٰرِبِينَ
a crystal-white drink, delicious to those who drink it.
46
لَا فِيهَا غَوْلٌ وَلَا هُمْ عَنْهَا يُنزَفُونَ
It will neither dull their senses nor they will become drunk.
47
وَعِندَهُمْ قَـٰصِرَٰتُ ٱلطَّرْفِ عِينٌ
And beside them there will be bashful, dark big beautiful eyed virgins,
48
كَأَنَّهُنَّ بَيْضٌ مَّكْنُونٌ
as if they were delicate eggs closely guarded.
49
فَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
Some of them will be asking questions to others.
50
قَالَ قَآئِلٌ مِّنْهُمْ إِنِّى كَانَ لِى قَرِينٌ
One of them will say: "I had a friend
51
يَقُولُ أَءِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُصَدِّقِينَ
who used to ask: 'Are you really of those who affirm (the message of Islam)?
52
أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَدِينُونَ
When we are dead and turned to dust and bones, shall we ever be brought to judgement?'"
53
قَالَ هَلْ أَنتُم مُّطَّلِعُونَ
It will be said: "Would you like to see him?"
54
فَٱطَّلَعَ فَرَءَاهُ فِى سَوَآءِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
He will look down and see his friend in the midst of hellfire.
55
قَالَ تَٱللَّهِ إِن كِدتَّ لَتُرْدِينِ
Then he will say: "By Allah! You had almost ruined me.
56
وَلَوْلَا نِعْمَةُ رَبِّى لَكُنتُ مِنَ ٱلْمُحْضَرِينَ
Had it not been for the grace of my Rabb, I should certainly have been among those who are brought there.
57
أَفَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَيِّتِينَ
Is it not so that we shall not die
58
إِلَّا مَوْتَتَنَا ٱلْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِينَ
after our first death and that we shall not be chastised?"
59
إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ
Most surely it is a mighty achievement.
60
لِمِثْلِ هَـٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ ٱلْعَـٰمِلُونَ
For such an end, let every one strive who wish to strive.
61
أَذَٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ نُّزُلًا أَمْ شَجَرَةُ ٱلزَّقُّومِ
Is this a better entertainment or the tree of Zaqqum?
62
إِنَّا جَعَلْنَـٰهَا فِتْنَةً لِّلظَّـٰلِمِينَ
Surely We have made this tree a trial for the wrongdoers.
63
إِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٌ تَخْرُجُ فِىٓ أَصْلِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
Surely it is a tree that grows in the bottom of the hellfire,
64
طَلْعُهَا كَأَنَّهُۥ رُءُوسُ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينِ
bearing fruits as if they were heads of shaitans,
65
فَإِنَّهُمْ لَـَٔاكِلُونَ مِنْهَا فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنْهَا ٱلْبُطُونَ
on it they shall feed and with it they shall fill their bellies.
66
ثُمَّ إِنَّ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا لَشَوْبًا مِّنْ حَمِيمٍ
Then on top of that, they will be given a concoction made from boiling water.
67
ثُمَّ إِنَّ مَرْجِعَهُمْ لَإِلَى ٱلْجَحِيمِ
Then to hellfire they shall be returned.
68
إِنَّهُمْ أَلْفَوْا۟ ءَابَآءَهُمْ ضَآلِّينَ
In fact, they found their fathers on the wrong path,
69
فَهُمْ عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَـٰرِهِمْ يُهْرَعُونَ
and they are eagerly following their footsteps.
70
وَلَقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ أَكْثَرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Most of the ancient went astray before them,
71
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا فِيهِم مُّنذِرِينَ
though We had sent Warners towards them.
72
فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَـٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ
See what was the end of those who had been forewarned: they all perished,
73
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
except the sincere devotees of Allah.
74
وَلَقَدْ نَادَىٰنَا نُوحٌ فَلَنِعْمَ ٱلْمُجِيبُونَ
Nuh prayed to Us; see how excellent was Our response to his prayer!
75
وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
We delivered him and his people from the mighty distress,
76
وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُۥ هُمُ ٱلْبَاقِينَ
and made his progeny to be the only survivors,
77
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
and We left his good name among the later generations.
78
سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰ نُوحٍ فِى ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
Salutation to Nuh among the people of the worlds.
79
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Thus do We reward the righteous.
80
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Surely he was one of Our believing devotees.
81
ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ
Then the rest We drowned in the great flood.
82
وَإِنَّ مِن شِيعَتِهِۦ لَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ
Surely Ibrahim belonged to the first group (who followed Nuh's way),
83
إِذْ جَآءَ رَبَّهُۥ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ
when he came to his Rabb with a pure heart.
84
إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِۦ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُونَ
Behold, he said to his father and to his people: "What are these that you worship?
85
أَئِفْكًا ءَالِهَةً دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ
Would you serve false gods instead of Allah?
86
فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
What is your idea about the Rabb of the worlds?"
87
فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِى ٱلنُّجُومِ
Then he looked at the stars one time
88
فَقَالَ إِنِّى سَقِيمٌ
and said "I am feeling sick."
89
فَتَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِينَ
So his people left him behind and went away to their national fair.
90
فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ
He sneaked into the temple of their gods and addressed them: "Why don't you eat from these offerings before you?
91
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنطِقُونَ
What is the matter with you that you don't even speak?"
92
فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًۢا بِٱلْيَمِينِ
Then he fell upon them, smiting them with his right hand.
93
فَأَقْبَلُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّونَ
The people came running to the scene.
94
قَالَ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَنْحِتُونَ
"Would you worship that which you have carved with your own hands," he said,
95
وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
"when Allah is the One Who created you and that which you have made?"
96
قَالُوا۟ ٱبْنُوا۟ لَهُۥ بُنْيَـٰنًا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِى ٱلْجَحِيمِ
They said to one another: "Prepare for him a furnace and throw him into the blazing flames."
97
فَأَرَادُوا۟ بِهِۦ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنَـٰهُمُ ٱلْأَسْفَلِينَ
Thus did they scheme against him: but We humiliated them in their scheme.
98
وَقَالَ إِنِّى ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّى سَيَهْدِينِ
Ibrahim said: "I am going to take refuge with my Rabb, He will surely guide me.
99
رَبِّ هَبْ لِى مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
O Rabb! Grant me a righteous son".
100
فَبَشَّرْنَـٰهُ بِغُلَـٰمٍ حَلِيمٍ
So We gave him the good news of a gentle son.
101
فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ ٱلسَّعْىَ قَالَ يَـٰبُنَىَّ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰ فِى ٱلْمَنَامِ أَنِّىٓ أَذْبَحُكَ فَٱنظُرْ مَاذَا تَرَىٰ ۚ قَالَ يَـٰٓأَبَتِ ٱفْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُ ۖ سَتَجِدُنِىٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
When he reached the age to work with him, Ibrahim said to him: "O my son! I have seen a vision that I should offer you as a sacrifice, now tell me what is your view." He replied: "O my father! Do as you are commanded: you will find me, if Allah so wills, of the patient."
102
فَلَمَّآ أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلْجَبِينِ
And when they both submitted to Allah and Ibrahim laid down his son prostrate upon his forehead for sacrifice;
103
وَنَـٰدَيْنَـٰهُ أَن يَـٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ
We called out to him: "O Ibrahim stop!
104
قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ ٱلرُّءْيَآ ۚ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
You have fulfilled your vision." Thus do We reward the righteous.
105
إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْبَلَـٰٓؤُا۟ ٱلْمُبِينُ
That was indeed a manifest test.
106
وَفَدَيْنَـٰهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيمٍ
We ransomed his son for a great sacrifice
107
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
and We left his good name among the later generations.
108
سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ
Salutation to Ibrahim.
109
كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Thus We reward the righteous.
110
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Surely he was one of Our believing devotees.
111
وَبَشَّرْنَـٰهُ بِإِسْحَـٰقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
We gave him the good news of Ishaq - a prophet - one of the righteous.
112
وَبَـٰرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَىٰٓ إِسْحَـٰقَ ۚ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحْسِنٌ وَظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهِۦ مُبِينٌ
We blessed him and Ishaq both. Among their progeny there are some who are righteous and some who are clearly wrong doing to their own souls.
113
وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَـٰرُونَ
We bestowed Our favor on Musa and Haroon.
114
وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُمَا وَقَوْمَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
We delivered them with all their people from the mighty distress.
115
وَنَصَرْنَـٰهُمْ فَكَانُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبِينَ
We helped them so they became victorious.
116
وَءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمَا ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ ٱلْمُسْتَبِينَ
We gave them the Glorious Book (Torah),
117
وَهَدَيْنَـٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ
and guided them both to the Right Way.
118
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِمَا فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
We left their good names among the later generations.
119
سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَـٰرُونَ
Salutation to Musa and Haroon.
120
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Thus do We reward the righteous.
121
إِنَّهُمَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Surely they were two of Our believing devotees.
122
وَإِنَّ إِلْيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Ilyas (Elias) was surely one of Our Rasools.
123
إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Behold he said to his people: "Have you no fear of Allah?
124
أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلًا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ ٱلْخَـٰلِقِينَ
Would you invoke Bal (their invented god) and forsake the best of the Creators
125
ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
- Allah - Who is your Rabb and the Rabb of your forefathers?"
126
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
But they denied him, so they will certainly be called to account,
127
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
with the exception of sincere devotees of Allah.
128
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
We left his good name among the later generations.
129
سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلْ يَاسِينَ
Salutation to Ilyas.
130
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Thus do We reward the righteous.
131
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
He was surely one of Our believing devotees.
132
وَإِنَّ لُوطًا لَّمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Lut was one of Our Rasools.
133
إِذْ نَجَّيْنَـٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ
Behold, We delivered him and his whole family
134
إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِى ٱلْغَـٰبِرِينَ
except an old woman who was among those who remained behind,
135
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ
and We destroyed the others.
136
وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ
Surely you pass by their ruins by day
137
وَبِٱلَّيْلِ ۗ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
and by night. Will you not use your common sense?
138
وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Yunus (Jonah) was surely one of Our Rasools.
139
إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ ٱلْمَشْحُونِ
When he ran to the laden ship,
140
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُدْحَضِينَ
took part in casting of lots, and was condemned.
141
فَٱلْتَقَمَهُ ٱلْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
A whale swallowed him for he had become blameworthy.
142
فَلَوْلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَبِّحِينَ
Had he not repented and became of those who glorify Allah,
143
لَلَبِثَ فِى بَطْنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
he would certainly have remained inside the belly of whale till the Day of Resurrection.
144
فَنَبَذْنَـٰهُ بِٱلْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ
Then We cast him upon a desolate shore in a state of serious illness
145
وَأَنۢبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّن يَقْطِينٍ
and caused a gourd plant to grow over him.
146
وَأَرْسَلْنَـٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِا۟ئَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ
Then We sent him to a nation of one hundred thousand people or more.
147
فَـَٔامَنُوا۟ فَمَتَّعْنَـٰهُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍ
They believed in him, so We permitted them to enjoy their life for a while.
148
فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ
Just ask the unbelievers: Does it make any sense that their Rabb should have daughters while they choose to have sons?
149
أَمْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَـٰثًا وَهُمْ شَـٰهِدُونَ
Or is it that We created the angels as females and they were present at their creation?
150
أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنْ إِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُولُونَ
Surely they invent a lie when they say:
151
وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَـٰذِبُونَ
"Allah has children. They are utter liars."
152
أَصْطَفَى ٱلْبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلْبَنِينَ
Would He choose daughters rather than sons?
153
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ
What is the matter with you? How do you judge?
154
أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
Will you not take heed?
155
أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَـٰنٌ مُّبِينٌ
Or do you have any proof of what you are saying?
156
فَأْتُوا۟ بِكِتَـٰبِكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ
Show us your scriptures if you are truthful!
157
وَجَعَلُوا۟ بَيْنَهُۥ وَبَيْنَ ٱلْجِنَّةِ نَسَبًا ۚ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمَتِ ٱلْجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
They assert blood-relationship between Him and the jinns; and the jinns know quite well that they will be called to account.
158
سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
Glory be to Allah! He is free from what they ascribe to Him
159
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
except His sincere devotees who do not attribute such things to Him.
160
فَإِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ
Therefore neither you nor those whom you worship
161
مَآ أَنتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفَـٰتِنِينَ
can deceive anyone about Allah
162
إِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
except him who is destined for hell.
163
وَمَا مِنَّآ إِلَّا لَهُۥ مَقَامٌ مَّعْلُومٌ
The angels in fact say: "We each have our appointed place.
164
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ
We range ourselves in ranks for His service
165
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلْمُسَبِّحُونَ
and we are surely those who declare His glory."
166
وَإِن كَانُوا۟ لَيَقُولُونَ
Before this, the same disbelievers used to say:
167
لَوْ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
"If we had received a reminder which the earlier people had received,
168
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
We certainly would have been sincere devotees of Allah."
169
فَكَفَرُوا۟ بِهِۦ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
But now that the Qur'an has come, they reject it: but soon they will find out the consequences of this attitude.
170
وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
We have already promised Our servants whom We sent as Rasools
171
إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَنصُورُونَ
that they would certainly be helped,
172
وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبُونَ
and that Our forces will surely be victorious.
173
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
So give no heed to them for a while;
174
وَأَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
you will see their downfall as they shall see your victory.
175
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
Do they wish to hurry on Our punishment?
176
فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ
But dreadful will be that morning, when it will descend in the courtyards of those who have been forewarned.
177
وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
So pay no heed to them for a while.
178
وَأَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
You will surely see their downfall as they shall see your victory.
179
سُبْحَـٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
Glory be to your Rabb, the Lord of Honor, He is free from what they ascribe to Him!
180
وَسَلَـٰمٌ عَلَى ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Peace be on the Rasools,
181
وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
and praise be to Allah, the Rabb of the Worlds.
