Yā, Seen.¹²⁶⁰

وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ ٱلۡحَكِيمِ ٢

Wal-qur'ānil-hakīm

By the wise¹²⁶¹ Qur’ān,

إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ٣

Innaka laminal-mursalīn

Indeed you, [O Muḥammad], are from among the messengers,

عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٖ مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ ٤

'Alā sirātim mustaqīm

On a straight path.

تَنزِيلَ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ٥

Tanzīlal-'azīzir-rahīm

[This is] a revelation of the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

لِتُنذِرَ قَوۡمٗا مَّآ أُنذِرَ ءَابَآؤُهُمۡ فَهُمۡ غَٰفِلُونَ ٦

Litundhira qawmam mā undhira ābā'uhum fahum ghāfilūn

That you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are unaware.

لَقَدۡ حَقَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَىٰٓ أَكۡثَرِهِمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ ٧

Laqad haqqal-qawlu 'alā aktharihim fahum lā yu'minūn

Already the word [i.e., decree] has come into effect upon most of them, so they do not believe.

إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَا فِيٓ أَعۡنَٰقِهِمۡ أَغۡلَٰلٗا فَهِيَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَذۡقَانِ فَهُم مُّقۡمَحُونَ ٨

Innā ja'alnā fī a'nāqihim aghlālan fahiya ilal-adhqāni fahum muqmahūn

Indeed, We have put shackles on their necks, and they are to their chins, so they are with heads [kept] aloft.

وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ سَدّٗا وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ سَدّٗا فَأَغۡشَيۡنَٰهُمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُبۡصِرُونَ ٩

Waja'alnā mim bayni aydīhim saddan wamin khalfihim saddan fa aghshaynāhum fahum lā yubsirūn

And We have put before them a barrier and behind them a barrier and covered them, so they do not see.

وَسَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَأَنذَرۡتَهُمۡ أَمۡ لَمۡ تُنذِرۡهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ ١٠

Wasawā'un 'alayhim a'andhartahum am lam tundhirhum lā yu'minūn

And it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.

إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلذِّكۡرَ وَخَشِيَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنَ بِٱلۡغَيۡبِۖ فَبَشِّرۡهُ بِمَغۡفِرَةٖ وَأَجۡرٖ كَرِيمٍ ١١

Innamā tundhiru manit-taba'adh-dhikra wakhashiyar-rahmāna bil-ghaybi fabasshirhu bimaghfiratin wa ajrin karīm

You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward.

إِنَّا نَحۡنُ نُحۡيِ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ وَنَكۡتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُواْ وَءَاثَٰرَهُمۡۚ وَكُلَّ شَيۡءٍ أَحۡصَيۡنَٰهُ فِيٓ إِمَامٖ مُّبِينٖ ١٢

Innā nahnu nuhyil-mawtā wanaktubu mā qaddamū wa āthārahum wakulla shay'in ahsaynāhu fī imāmim mubīn

Indeed, it is We who bring the dead to life and record what they have put forth and what they left behind, and all things We have enumerated in a clear register.

وَٱضۡرِبۡ لَهُم مَّثَلًا أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡقَرۡيَةِ إِذۡ جَآءَهَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ ١٣

Wadrib lahum mathalan ashābal-qaryati idh jā'ahal-mursalūn

And present to them an example: the people of the city, when the messengers came to it -

إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَآ إِلَيۡهِمُ ٱثۡنَيۡنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزۡنَا بِثَالِثٖ فَقَالُوٓاْ إِنَّآ إِلَيۡكُم مُّرۡسَلُونَ ١٤

Idh arsalnā ilayhimuthnayni fakaddhabūhumā fa'azzaznā bithālithin faqālū innā ilaykum mursalūn

When We sent to them two but they denied them, so We strengthened [them] with a third, and they said, "Indeed, we are messengers to you."

قَالُواْ مَآ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُنَا وَمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ مِن شَيۡءٍ إِنۡ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا تَكۡذِبُونَ ١٥

Qālū mā antum illā basharum mithlunā wamā anzalar-rahmānu min shay'in in antum illā takdhibūn

They said, "You are not but human beings like us, and the Most Merciful has not revealed a thing. You are only telling lies."

قَالُواْ رَبُّنَا يَعۡلَمُ إِنَّآ إِلَيۡكُمۡ لَمُرۡسَلُونَ ١٦

Qālū rabbunā ya'lamu innā ilaykum lamursalūn

They said, "Our Lord knows that we are messengers to you,

وَمَا عَلَيۡنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡبَلَٰغُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ ١٧

Wamā 'alaynā illal-balāghul-mubīn

And we are not responsible except for clear notification."

قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا تَطَيَّرۡنَا بِكُمۡۖ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهُواْ لَنَرۡجُمَنَّكُمۡ وَلَيَمَسَّنَّكُم مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٞ ١٨

Qālū innā tatayyarnā bikum la il lam tantahū lanarjumannakum walayamassannakum minnā 'adhābun alīm

They said, "Indeed, we consider you a bad omen. If you do not desist, we will surely stone you, and there will surely touch you, from us, a painful punishment."

قَالُواْ طَٰٓئِرُكُم مَّعَكُمۡ أَئِن ذُكِّرۡتُمۚ بَلۡ أَنتُمۡ قَوۡمٞ مُّسۡرِفُونَ ١٩

Qālū tā'irukum ma'akum a'in dhukkirtum bal antum qawmum musrifūn

They said, "Your omen [i.e., fate] is with yourselves. Is it¹²⁶² because you were reminded? Rather, you are a transgressing people."

وَجَآءَ مِنۡ أَقۡصَا ٱلۡمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٞ يَسۡعَىٰ قَالَ يَٰقَوۡمِ ٱتَّبِعُواْ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ٢٠

Wajā'a min aqsal-madīnati rajulun yas'ā qāla yāqawmit-tabi'ul-mursalīn

And there came from the farthest end of the city a man, running. He said, "O my people, follow the messengers.

ٱتَّبِعُواْ مَن لَّا يَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ أَجۡرٗا وَهُم مُّهۡتَدُونَ ٢١

Ittabi'ū mal lā yas'alukum ajran wahum muhtadūn

Follow those who do not ask of you [any] payment, and they are [rightly] guided.

وَمَالِيَ لَآ أَعۡبُدُ ٱلَّذِي فَطَرَنِي وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ ٢٢

Wamāliya lā a'budul-ladhī fataranī wa ilayhi turja'ūn

And why should I not worship He who created me and to whom you will be returned?

ءَأَتَّخِذُ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةً إِن يُرِدۡنِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ بِضُرّٖ لَّا تُغۡنِ عَنِّي شَفَٰعَتُهُمۡ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا يُنقِذُونِ ٢٣

A'attakhidhu min dūnihī ālihatan in yuridnir-rahmānu bidurril lā tughni 'annī shafā'atuhum shay'an walā yunqidhūn

Should I take other than Him [false] deities [while], if the Most Merciful intends for me some adversity, their intercession will not avail me at all, nor can they save me?

إِنِّيٓ إِذٗا لَّفِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ ٢٤

Innī idhal lafī dalālim mubīn

Indeed, I would then be in manifest error.

إِنِّيٓ ءَامَنتُ بِرَبِّكُمۡ فَٱسۡمَعُونِ ٢٥

Innī āmantu birabbikum fasma'ūn

Indeed, I have believed in your Lord, so listen to me."

قِيلَ ٱدۡخُلِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَۖ قَالَ يَٰلَيۡتَ قَوۡمِي يَعۡلَمُونَ ٢٦

Qīladkhulil-jannata qāla yālayta qawmī ya'lamūn

It was said, "Enter Paradise."¹²⁶³ He said, "I wish my people could know

بِمَا غَفَرَ لِي رَبِّي وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ ٱلۡمُكۡرَمِينَ ٢٧

Bimā ghafara lī rabbī waja'alanī minal-mukramīn

Of how my Lord has forgiven me and placed me among the honored."

۞ وَمَآ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَىٰ قَوۡمِهِۦ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ مِن جُندٖ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا كُنَّا مُنزِلِينَ ٢٨

Wamā anzalnā 'alā qawmihī mim ba'dihī min jundim minas-samā'i wamā kunnā munzilīn

And We did not send down upon his people after him any soldiers from the heaven, nor would We have done so.

إِن كَانَتۡ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ فَإِذَا هُمۡ خَٰمِدُونَ ٢٩

In kānat illā sayhatan wāhidatan fa idhā hum khāmidūn

It was not but one shout,¹²⁶⁴ and immediately they were extinguished.

يَٰحَسۡرَةً عَلَى ٱلۡعِبَادِۚ مَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ ٣٠

Yāhasratan 'alal-'ibādi mā ya'tīhim mir rasūlin illā kānū bihī yastahzi'ūn

How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him.

أَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ كَمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا قَبۡلَهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡقُرُونِ أَنَّهُمۡ إِلَيۡهِمۡ لَا يَرۡجِعُونَ ٣١

Alam yaraw kam ahlaknā qablahum minal-qurūni annahum ilayhim lā yarji'ūn

Have they not considered how many generations We destroyed before them - that they to them¹²⁶⁵ will not return?

وَإِن كُلّٞ لَّمَّا جَمِيعٞ لَّدَيۡنَا مُحۡضَرُونَ ٣٢

Wa in kullul lammā jamī'ul ladaynā muhdarūn

And indeed, all of them will yet be brought present before Us.

وَءَايَةٞ لَّهُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ ٱلۡمَيۡتَةُ أَحۡيَيۡنَٰهَا وَأَخۡرَجۡنَا مِنۡهَا حَبّٗا فَمِنۡهُ يَأۡكُلُونَ ٣٣

Wa āyatul lahumul-ardul-maytatu ahyaynāhā wa akhrajnā minhā habban faminhu ya'kulūn

And a sign for them is the dead earth. We have brought it to life and brought forth from it grain, and from it they eat.

وَجَعَلۡنَا فِيهَا جَنَّٰتٖ مِّن نَّخِيلٖ وَأَعۡنَٰبٖ وَفَجَّرۡنَا فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلۡعُيُونِ ٣٤

Waja'alnā fīhā jannātim min nakhīlin wa a'nābin wafajjarnā fīhā minal-'uyūn

And We placed therein gardens of palm trees and grapevines and caused to burst forth therefrom some springs -

لِيَأۡكُلُواْ مِن ثَمَرِهِۦ وَمَا عَمِلَتۡهُ أَيۡدِيهِمۡۚ أَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُونَ ٣٥

Liya'kulū min thamarihī wamā 'amilathu aydīhim afalā yashkurūn

That they may eat of His fruit.¹²⁶⁶ And their hands have not produced it,¹²⁶⁷ so will they not be grateful?

سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلۡأَزۡوَٰجَ كُلَّهَا مِمَّا تُنۢبِتُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمِنۡ أَنفُسِهِمۡ وَمِمَّا لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ ٣٦

Subhānal-ladhī khalaqal-azwāja kullahā mimmā tumbitul-ardu wamin anfusihim wamimmā lā ya'lamūn

Exalted is He who created all pairs¹²⁶⁸ - from what the earth grows and from themselves and from that which they do not know.

وَءَايَةٞ لَّهُمُ ٱلَّيۡلُ نَسۡلَخُ مِنۡهُ ٱلنَّهَارَ فَإِذَا هُم مُّظۡلِمُونَ ٣٧

Wa āyatul lahumul-laylu naslakhu minhun-nahāra fa idhā hum muzlimūn

And a sign for them is the night. We remove¹²⁶⁹ from it the [light of] day, so they are [left] in darkness.

وَٱلشَّمۡسُ تَجۡرِي لِمُسۡتَقَرّٖ لَّهَاۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقۡدِيرُ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡعَلِيمِ ٣٨

Wash-shamsu tajrī limustaqarril lahā dhālika taqdīrul-'azīzil-'alīm

And the sun runs [on course] toward its stopping point. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.

وَٱلۡقَمَرَ قَدَّرۡنَٰهُ مَنَازِلَ حَتَّىٰ عَادَ كَٱلۡعُرۡجُونِ ٱلۡقَدِيمِ ٣٩

Wal-qamara qaddarnāhu manāzila hattā 'āda kal-'urjūnil-qadīm

And the moon - We have determined for it phases, until it returns [appearing] like the old date stalk.

لَا ٱلشَّمۡسُ يَنۢبَغِي لَهَآ أَن تُدۡرِكَ ٱلۡقَمَرَ وَلَا ٱلَّيۡلُ سَابِقُ ٱلنَّهَارِۚ وَكُلّٞ فِي فَلَكٖ يَسۡبَحُونَ ٤٠

Lash-shamsu yambaghī lahā an tudrikal-qamara walal-laylu sābiqun-nahāri wakullun fī falakin yasbahūn

It is not allowable [i.e., possible] for the sun to reach the moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but each, in an orbit, is swimming.

وَءَايَةٞ لَّهُمۡ أَنَّا حَمَلۡنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ ٤١

Wa āyatul lahum annā hamalnā dhurriyyatahum fil-fulkil-mashhūn

And a sign for them is that We carried their forefathers¹²⁷⁰ in a laden ship.

وَخَلَقۡنَا لَهُم مِّن مِّثۡلِهِۦ مَا يَرۡكَبُونَ ٤٢

Wakhalaqnā lahum mim mithlihī mā yarkabūn

And We created for them from the likes of it that which they ride.

وَإِن نَّشَأۡ نُغۡرِقۡهُمۡ فَلَا صَرِيخَ لَهُمۡ وَلَا هُمۡ يُنقَذُونَ ٤٣

Wa in nasha' nughriqhum falā sarīkha lahum walā hum yunqadhūn

And if We should will, We could drown them; then no one responding to a cry would there be for them, nor would they be saved

إِلَّا رَحۡمَةٗ مِّنَّا وَمَتَٰعًا إِلَىٰ حِينٖ ٤٤

Illā rahmatam minnā wamatā'an ilā hīn

Except as a mercy from Us and provision for a time.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّقُواْ مَا بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِيكُمۡ وَمَا خَلۡفَكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ ٤٥

Wa idhā qīla lahumut-taqū mā bayna aydīkum wamā khalfakum la'allakum turhamūn

But when it is said to them, "Beware of what is before you and what is behind you;¹²⁷¹ perhaps you will receive mercy..."¹²⁷²

وَمَا تَأۡتِيهِم مِّنۡ ءَايَةٖ مِّنۡ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمۡ إِلَّا كَانُواْ عَنۡهَا مُعۡرِضِينَ ٤٦

Wamā ta'tīhim min āyatim min āyāti rabbihim illā kānū 'anhā mu'ridīn

And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they are from it turning away.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمۡ أَنفِقُواْ مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَنُطۡعِمُ مَن لَّوۡ يَشَآءُ ٱللَّهُ أَطۡعَمَهُۥٓ إِنۡ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا فِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٖ ٤٧

Wa idhā qīla lahum anfiqū mimmā razaqakumullāhu qālal-ladhīna kafarū lilladhīna āmanū anut'imu mal law yashā'ullāhu at'amahū in antum illā fī dalālim mubīn

And when it is said to them, "Spend from that which Allāh has provided for you," those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Should we feed one whom, if Allāh had willed, He would have fed? You are not but in clear error."

وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَٰذَا ٱلۡوَعۡدُ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ ٤٨

Wayaqūlūna matā hādhal-wa'du in kuntum sādiqīn

And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful?"

مَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ تَأۡخُذُهُمۡ وَهُمۡ يَخِصِّمُونَ ٤٩

Mā yanzurūna illā sayhatan wāhidatan ta'khudhuhum wahum yakhissimūn

They do not await except one blast¹²⁷³ which will seize them while they are disputing.

فَلَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ تَوۡصِيَةٗ وَلَآ إِلَىٰٓ أَهۡلِهِمۡ يَرۡجِعُونَ ٥٠

Falā yastatī'ūna tawsiyatan walā ilā ahlihim yarji'ūn

And they will not be able [to give] any instruction, nor to their people can they return.

وَنُفِخَ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَإِذَا هُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَجۡدَاثِ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمۡ يَنسِلُونَ ٥١

Wanufikha fis-sūri fa idhā hum minal-ajdāthi ilā rabbihim yansilūn

And the Horn will be blown;¹²⁷⁴ and at once from the graves to their Lord they will hasten.

قَالُواْ يَٰوَيۡلَنَا مَنۢ بَعَثَنَا مِن مَّرۡقَدِنَاۜۗ هَٰذَا مَا وَعَدَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ وَصَدَقَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ ٥٢

Qālū yāwaylanā mam ba'athanā mim marqadinā hādhā mā wa'adar-rahmānu wasadaqal-mursalūn

They will say, "O woe to us! Who has raised us up from our sleeping place?" [The reply will be], "This is what the Most Merciful had promised, and the messengers told the truth."

إِن كَانَتۡ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ فَإِذَا هُمۡ جَمِيعٞ لَّدَيۡنَا مُحۡضَرُونَ ٥٣

In kānat illā sayhatan wāhidatan fa idhā hum jamī'ul ladaynā muhdarūn

It will not be but one blast, and at once they are all brought present before Us.

فَٱلۡيَوۡمَ لَا تُظۡلَمُ نَفۡسٞ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا تُجۡزَوۡنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ ٥٤

Fal-yawma lā tuzlamu nafsun shay'an walā tujzawna illā mā kuntum ta'malūn

So today [i.e., the Day of Judgement] no soul will be wronged at all, and you will not be recompensed except for what you used to do.

إِنَّ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ فِي شُغُلٖ فَٰكِهُونَ ٥٥

Inna ashābal-jannatil-yawma fī shughulin fākihūn

Indeed the companions of Paradise, that Day, will be amused in [joyful] occupation -

هُمۡ وَأَزۡوَٰجُهُمۡ فِي ظِلَٰلٍ عَلَى ٱلۡأَرَآئِكِ مُتَّكِـُٔونَ ٥٦

Hum wa azwājuhum fī zilālin 'alal-arā'iki muttaki'ūn

They and their spouses - in shade, reclining on adorned couches.

لَهُمۡ فِيهَا فَٰكِهَةٞ وَلَهُم مَّا يَدَّعُونَ ٥٧

Lahum fīhā fākihatun walahum mā yadda'ūn

For them therein is fruit, and for them is whatever they request [or wish]

سَلَٰمٞ قَوۡلٗا مِّن رَّبّٖ رَّحِيمٖ ٥٨

Salāmun qawlam mir rabbir rahīm

[And] "Peace," a word from a Merciful Lord.

وَٱمۡتَٰزُواْ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ أَيُّهَا ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ ٥٩

Wamtāzul-yawma ayyuhal-mujrimūn

[Then He will say], "But stand apart today, you criminals.¹²⁷⁵

۞ أَلَمۡ أَعۡهَدۡ إِلَيۡكُمۡ يَٰبَنِيٓ ءَادَمَ أَن لَّا تَعۡبُدُواْ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنَۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمۡ عَدُوّٞ مُّبِينٞ ٦٠

Alam a'had ilaykum yābanī ādama al lā ta'budush-shaytāna innahū lakum 'aduwwum mubīn

Did I not enjoin upon you, O children of Adam, that you not worship Satan - [for] indeed, he is to you a clear enemy -

وَأَنِ ٱعۡبُدُونِيۚ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٞ مُّسۡتَقِيمٞ ٦١

Wa ani'budūnī hādhā sirātum mustaqīm

And that you worship [only] Me? This is a straight path.

وَلَقَدۡ أَضَلَّ مِنكُمۡ جِبِلّٗا كَثِيرًاۖ أَفَلَمۡ تَكُونُواْ تَعۡقِلُونَ ٦٢

Walaqad adalla minkum jibillan kathīran afalam takūnū ta'qilūn

And he had already led astray from among you much of creation, so did you not use reason?

هَٰذِهِۦ جَهَنَّمُ ٱلَّتِي كُنتُمۡ تُوعَدُونَ ٦٣

Hādhihī jahannamul-latī kuntum tū'adūn

This is the Hellfire which you were promised.

ٱصۡلَوۡهَا ٱلۡيَوۡمَ بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡفُرُونَ ٦٤

Islawhal-yawma bimā kuntum takfurūn

[Enter to] burn therein today for what you used to deny."¹²⁷⁶

ٱلۡيَوۡمَ نَخۡتِمُ عَلَىٰٓ أَفۡوَٰهِهِمۡ وَتُكَلِّمُنَآ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَتَشۡهَدُ أَرۡجُلُهُم بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكۡسِبُونَ ٦٥

Al-yawma nakhtimu 'alā afwāhihim watukallimunā aydīhim watashhadu arjuluhum bimā kānū yaksibūn

That Day, We will seal over their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their feet will testify about what they used to earn.

وَلَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَطَمَسۡنَا عَلَىٰٓ أَعۡيُنِهِمۡ فَٱسۡتَبَقُواْ ٱلصِّرَٰطَ فَأَنَّىٰ يُبۡصِرُونَ ٦٦

Walaw nashā'u latamasnā 'alā a'yunihim fastabaqus-sirāta fa annā yubsirūn

And if We willed, We could have obliterated their eyes, and they would race to [find] the path, and how could they see?¹²⁷⁷

وَلَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَمَسَخۡنَٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِهِمۡ فَمَا ٱسۡتَطَٰعُواْ مُضِيّٗا وَلَا يَرۡجِعُونَ ٦٧

Walaw nashā'u lamasakhnāhum 'alā makānatihim famastatā'ū mudiyyan walā yarji'ūn

And if We willed, We could have deformed them, [paralyzing them] in their places so they would not be able to proceed, nor could they return.¹²⁷⁸

وَمَن نُّعَمِّرۡهُ نُنَكِّسۡهُ فِي ٱلۡخَلۡقِۚ أَفَلَا يَعۡقِلُونَ ٦٨

Waman nu'ammirhu nunakkishu fil-khalqi afalā ya'qilūn

And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation;¹²⁷⁹ so will they not understand?

وَمَا عَلَّمۡنَٰهُ ٱلشِّعۡرَ وَمَا يَنۢبَغِي لَهُۥٓۚ إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرٞ وَقُرۡءَانٞ مُّبِينٞ ٦٩

Wamā 'allamnāhush-shi'ra wamā yambaghī lahū in huwa illā dhikrun waqur'ānum mubīn

And We did not give him [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)] knowledge of poetry, nor is it befitting for him. It is not but a message and a clear Qur’ān

لِّيُنذِرَ مَن كَانَ حَيّٗا وَيَحِقَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ ٧٠

Lliyundhira man kāna hayyan wayahiqqal-qawlu 'alal-kāfirīn

To warn whoever is alive¹²⁸⁰ and justify the word [i.e., decree] against the disbelievers.

أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَا لَهُم مِّمَّا عَمِلَتۡ أَيۡدِينَآ أَنۡعَٰمٗا فَهُمۡ لَهَا مَٰلِكُونَ ٧١

Awalam yaraw annā khalaqnā lahum mimmā 'amilat aydīnā an'āman fahum lahā mālikūn

Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands¹²⁸¹ have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners?

وَذَلَّلۡنَٰهَا لَهُمۡ فَمِنۡهَا رَكُوبُهُمۡ وَمِنۡهَا يَأۡكُلُونَ ٧٢

Wadhallalnāhā lahum faminhā rakūbuhum waminhā ya'kulūn

And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat.

وَلَهُمۡ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ وَمَشَارِبُۚ أَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُونَ ٧٣

Walahum fīhā manāfi'u wamashāribu afalā yashkurūn

And for them therein are [other] benefits and drinks, so will they not be grateful?

وَٱتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ءَالِهَةٗ لَّعَلَّهُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ ٧٤

Wattakhadhū min dūnillāhi ālihatal la'allahum yunsarūn

But they have taken besides Allāh [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped.

لَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ نَصۡرَهُمۡ وَهُمۡ لَهُمۡ جُندٞ مُّحۡضَرُونَ ٧٥

Lā yastatī'ūna nasrahum wahum lahum jundum muhdarūn

They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance.¹²⁸²

فَلَا يَحۡزُنكَ قَوۡلُهُمۡۘ إِنَّا نَعۡلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعۡلِنُونَ ٧٦

Falā yahzunka qawluhum innā na'lamu mā yusirrūna wamā yu'linūn

So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare.

أَوَلَمۡ يَرَ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَٰهُ مِن نُّطۡفَةٖ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٞ مُّبِينٞ ٧٧

Awalam yaral-insānu annā khalaqnāhu min nutfatin fa idhā huwa khasīmum mubīn

Does man not consider that We created him from a [mere] sperm-drop - then at once¹²⁸³ he is a clear adversary?

وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلٗا وَنَسِيَ خَلۡقَهُۥۖ قَالَ مَن يُحۡيِ ٱلۡعِظَٰمَ وَهِيَ رَمِيمٞ ٧٨

Wadaraba lanā mathalan wanasiya khalqahū qāla man yuhyil-'izāma wahiya ramīm

And he presents for Us an example¹²⁸⁴ and forgets his [own] creation. He says, "Who will give life to bones while they are disintegrated?"

قُلۡ يُحۡيِيهَا ٱلَّذِيٓ أَنشَأَهَآ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٖۖ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ خَلۡقٍ عَلِيمٌ ٧٩

Qul yuhyīhal-ladhī ansha'ahā awwala marratin wahuwa bikulli khalqin 'alīm

Say, "He will give them life who produced them the first time; and He is, of all creation, Knowing."

ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلشَّجَرِ ٱلۡأَخۡضَرِ نَارٗا فَإِذَآ أَنتُم مِّنۡهُ تُوقِدُونَ ٨٠

Alladhī ja'ala lakum minash-shajaril-akhdari nāran fa idhā antum minhu tūqidūn

[It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite.

أَوَلَيۡسَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ بِقَٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يَخۡلُقَ مِثۡلَهُمۚ بَلَىٰ وَهُوَ ٱلۡخَلَّٰقُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ ٨١

Awalaysal-ladhī khalaqas-samāwāti wal-arda biqādirin 'alā an yakhluqa mithlahum balā wahuwal-khallāqul-'alīm

Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them? Yes, [it is so]; and He is the Knowing Creator.

إِنَّمَآ أَمۡرُهُۥٓ إِذَآ أَرَادَ شَيۡـًٔا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ ٨٢

Innamā amruhū idhā arāda shay'an an yaqūla lahū kun fayakūn

His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is.

فَسُبۡحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِهِۦ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ ٨٣

Fasubhānal-ladhī biyadihī malakūtu kulli shay'in wa ilayhi turja'ūn

So exalted is He in whose hand is the realm of all things, and to Him you will be returned.
