بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
مِن فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِيًۭا مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ
Min Fir'awn; innahoo kaana 'aaliyam minal musrifeen
from Pharaoh who was most prominent among the prodigals.
وَلَقَدِ ٱخْتَرْنَٰهُمْ عَلَىٰ عِلْمٍ عَلَى ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
Wa laqadikh tarnaahum 'alaa 'ilmin 'alal 'aalameen
We knowingly exalted them (i.e., the Children of Israel) above other peoples of the world
وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلْءَايَٰتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَٰٓؤٌۭا۟ مُّبِينٌ
Wa aatainaahum minal aayaati maa feehi balaaa'um mubeen
and bestowed upon them the Signs wherein lay an evident test for them.
إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَيَقُولُونَ
Inna haaa'ulaaa'i la yaqooloon
Indeed these people say:
إِنْ هِىَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا ٱلْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنشَرِينَ
In hiya illaa mawtatunal oolaa wa maa nahnu bimun shareen
“This is our first and only death, and we shall never be raised again.
فَأْتُوا۟ بِـَٔابَآئِنَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ
Faatoo bi aabaaa'inaaa inkuntum saadiqeen
Bring back to us our fathers if you are truthful.”
أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍۢ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ أَهْلَكْنَٰهُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ مُجْرِمِينَ
Ahum khayrun am qawmu Tubba'inw wallazeena min qablihim; ahlaknaahum innahum kaanoo mujrimeen
Are these better or the people of Tubba and those who went before them? We destroyed them for they were a criminal people.
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَٰعِبِينَ
Wa maa khalaqnas samaawaati wal arda wa maa baina humaa laa'ibeen
It was not in idle sport that We created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them.
مَا خَلَقْنَٰهُمَآ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
Maa khalaqnaahumaaa illaa bilhaqqi wa laakinna aksarahum laa ya'lamoon
We did not create them except in Truth. But most of them do not know.
إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ مِيقَٰتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

The Day of Final Decision is the appointed time for all;
يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى مَوْلًى عَن مَّوْلًۭى شَيْـًۭٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
Yawma laa yughnee mawlan 'am mawlan shai'anw wa laa hum yunsaroon
the Day when a friend shall be of no avail to his friend nor shall they be helped,
إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
Illaa mar rahimal laah' innahoo huwal 'azeezur raheem
except those to whom Allah shows mercy. He is the Most Mighty, the Most Compassionate.

The tree of al-Zaqqum
طَعَامُ ٱلْأَثِيمِ

shall be the food of the sinful.
كَٱلْمُهْلِ يَغْلِى فِى ٱلْبُطُونِ

Like dregs of oil, it will boil in their bellies
كَغَلْىِ ٱلْحَمِيمِ
Kaghalyil hameem
like boiling water.
خُذُوهُ فَٱعْتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَآءِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
Khuzoohu fa'tiloohu ilaa sawaaa'il Jaheem
“Seize him and drag him to the middle of the Blazing Fire,
ثُمَّ صُبُّوا۟ فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِۦ مِنْ عَذَابِ ٱلْحَمِيمِ
Summa subboo fawqa raasihee min 'azaabil hameem
then pour boiling water over his head as chastisement.
ذُقْ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْكَرِيمُ

Taste this, you are a person mighty and noble!
إِنَّ هَٰذَا مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَمْتَرُونَ

Verily the God-fearing shall be in a secure place
فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍۢ
Fee jannaatinw wa 'uyoon
amidst gardens and springs.

While resting in security, they shall call for all kinds of fruit.
لَا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا ٱلْمَوْتَ إِلَّا ٱلْمَوْتَةَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ ۖ وَوَقَىٰهُمْ عَذَابَ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
Laa yazooqoona feehal mawtaa illal mawtatal oolaa wa qaqaahum 'azaabal jaheem
They shall not taste death except the death in this world. And Allah will save them from the chastisement of Hell
فَضْلًۭا مِّن رَّبِّكَ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ
Fadlam mir rabbik; zaalika huwal fawzul 'azeem
as a favour from your Lord. That is the great triumph.
فَإِنَّمَا يَسَّرْنَٰهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ
Fa innamaa yassarnaahu bilisaanika la'allahum yatazakkaroon
(O Prophet), We have made this Book easy in your tongue so that they may take heed.
فَٱرْتَقِبْ إِنَّهُم مُّرْتَقِبُونَ
Fartaqib innahum murta qiboon
Wait, then; they too are waiting.
