بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
وَٱلْكِتَٰبِ ٱلْمُبِينِ
Wal Kitaabil Mubeen
I swear by the Book that makes manifest (the truth).
إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَٰهُ فِى لَيْلَةٍۢ مُّبَٰرَكَةٍ ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ
Innaaa anzalnaahu fee lailatim mubaarakah; innaa kunnaa munzireen
Surely We revealed it on a blessed night surely We are ever warning--
فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
Feehaa yufraqu kullu amrin hakeem
Therein every wise affair is made distinct,
أَمْرًۭا مِّنْ عِندِنَآ ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ
Amram min 'indinaaa; innaa kunnaa mursileen
A command from Us; surely We are the senders (of apostles),
رَحْمَةًۭ مِّن رَّبِّكَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ
Rahmatam mir rabbik; innahoo Huwas Samee'ul 'Aleem
A mercy from your Lord, surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing,
رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ ۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ
Rabbis samaawaati wal ardi wa maa bainahumaa; in kuntum mooqineen
The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, if you would be sure.
لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ ۖ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Laaa ilaaha illaa Huwa yuhyee wa yumeetu Rabbukum wa Rabbu aabaaa'ikumul awwaleen
There is no god but He; He gives life and causes death, your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of yore.
بَلْ هُمْ فِى شَكٍّۢ يَلْعَبُونَ
Bal hum fee shakkiny yal'aboon
Nay, they are in doubt, they sport.
فَٱرْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِى ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِدُخَانٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ
Fartaqib Yawma taatis samaaa'u bidukhaanim mubeen
Therefore keep waiting for the day when the heaven shall bring an evident smoke,
يَغْشَى ٱلنَّاسَ ۖ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ
Yaghshan naasa haazaa 'azaabun aleem
That shall overtake men; this is a painful punishment.
رَّبَّنَا ٱكْشِفْ عَنَّا ٱلْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ
Rabbanak shif 'annal 'azaaba innaa mu'minoon
Our Lord! remove from us the punishment; surely we are believers.
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ وَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ
Annaa lahumuz zikraa wa qad jaaa'ahum Rasoolum mubeen
How shall they be reminded, and there came to them an Apostle making clear (the truth),
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا۟ مُعَلَّمٌۭ مَّجْنُونٌ
Summaa tawallaw 'anhu wa qaaloo mu'allamum majnoon
Yet they turned their backs on him and said: One taught (by others), a madman.
إِنَّا كَاشِفُوا۟ ٱلْعَذَابِ قَلِيلًا ۚ إِنَّكُمْ عَآئِدُونَ
Innaa kaashiful 'azaabi qaleelaa; innakum 'aaa'indoon
Surely We will remove the punishment a little, (but) you will surely return (to evil).
يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ ٱلْبَطْشَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰٓ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ
Yawma nabtishul batsha tal kubraa innaa muntaqimoon
On the day when We will seize (them) with the most violent seizing; surely We will inflict retribution.
۞ وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌۭ كَرِيمٌ
Wa laqad fatannaa qablahum qawma Fir'awna wa jaaa'ahum Rasoolun kareem
And certainly We tried before them the people of Firon, and there came to them a noble apostle,
أَنْ أَدُّوٓا۟ إِلَىَّ عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌۭ
An addooo ilaiya 'ibaadal laahi innee lakum Rasoolun ameen
Saying: Deliver to me the servants of Allah, surely I am a faithful apostle to you,
وَأَن لَّا تَعْلُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّىٓ ءَاتِيكُم بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ
Wa al laa ta'loo 'alal laahi innee aateekum bisultaanim mubeen
And that do not exalt yourselves against Allah, surely I will bring to you a clear authority:
وَإِنِّى عُذْتُ بِرَبِّى وَرَبِّكُمْ أَن تَرْجُمُونِ
Wa innee 'uztu bi Rabbee wa rabbikum an tarjumoon
And surely I take refuge with my Lord and your Lord that you should stone me to death:
وَإِن لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوا۟ لِى فَٱعْتَزِلُونِ
Wa il lam tu'minoo lee fa'taziloon
And if you do not believe in me, then leave me alone.
فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوْمٌۭ مُّجْرِمُونَ
Fada'aa rabbahooo anna haaa'ulaaa'i qawmum mujrimoon
Then he called upon his Lord: These are a guilty people.
فَأَسْرِ بِعِبَادِى لَيْلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ
Fa asri bi'ibaadee lailan innakum muttaba'oon
So go forth with My servants by night; surely you will be pursued:
وَٱتْرُكِ ٱلْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا ۖ إِنَّهُمْ جُندٌۭ مُّغْرَقُونَ
Watrukil bahra rahwan innahum jundum mughraqoon
And leave the sea intervening; surely they are a host that shall be drowned.
كَمْ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍۢ
Kam tarakoo min jannaatinw wa 'uyoon
How many of the gardens and fountains have they left!
وَزُرُوعٍۢ وَمَقَامٍۢ كَرِيمٍۢ
Wa zuroo'inw wa maqaa min kareem
And cornfields and noble places!
وَنَعْمَةٍۢ كَانُوا۟ فِيهَا فَٰكِهِينَ
Wa na'matin kaanoo feehaa faakiheen
And goodly things wherein they rejoiced;
كَذَٰلِكَ ۖ وَأَوْرَثْنَٰهَا قَوْمًا ءَاخَرِينَ
Kazaalika wa awrasnaahaa qawman aakhareen
Thus (it was), and We gave them as a heritage to another people.
فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِينَ
Famaa bakat 'alaihimus samaaa'u wal ardu wa maa kaanoo munzareen
So the heaven and the earth did not weep for them, nor were they respited.
وَلَقَدْ نَجَّيْنَا بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ مِنَ ٱلْعَذَابِ ٱلْمُهِينِ
Wa laqad najjainaa Baneee Israaa'eela minal'azaabil muheen
And certainly We delivered the children of Israel from the abasing chastisement,
Meccan
