بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
الٓر ۚ تِلْكَ ءَايَٰتُ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ وَقُرْءَانٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ
Alif-Laaam-Raa; tilka Aayaatul Kitaabi wa Qur-aa-nim Mubeen
A. L. R. These are the Ayats of Revelation,- of a Qur'an that makes things clear.
رُّبَمَا يَوَدُّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَوْ كَانُوا۟ مُسْلِمِينَ
Rubamaa yawaddul lazeena kafaroo law kaanoo muslimeen
Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they had bowed (to Allah's will) in Islam.
ذَرْهُمْ يَأْكُلُوا۟ وَيَتَمَتَّعُوا۟ وَيُلْهِهِمُ ٱلْأَمَلُ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
Zarhum yaakuloo wa tatamatta'oo wa yulhihimul amalu fasawfa ya'lamoon
Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them).
وَمَآ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا وَلَهَا كِتَابٌۭ مَّعْلُومٌۭ
Wa maaa ahlaknaa min qaryatin illaa wa lahaa kitaabum ma'loom
Never did We destroy a population that had not a term decreed and assigned beforehand.
مَّا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ
Maa tasbiqu min ummatin ajalahaa wa maa yastaakhiroon
Neither can a people anticipate its term, nor delay it.
وَقَالُوا۟ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِى نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلذِّكْرُ إِنَّكَ لَمَجْنُونٌۭ
Wa qaaloo yaaa aiyuhal lazee nuzzila 'alaihiz Zikru innaka lamajnoon
They say: "O thou to whom the Message is being revealed! truly thou art mad (or possessed)!
لَّوْ مَا تَأْتِينَا بِٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ
Law maa taateenaa bil malaaa'ikati in kunta minas saadiqeen
"Why bringest thou not angels to us if it be that thou hast the Truth?"
مَا نُنَزِّلُ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَمَا كَانُوٓا۟ إِذًۭا مُّنظَرِينَ
Maa nunazzilul malaaa'i kata illaa bilhaqqi wa maa kaanooo izam munzareen
We send not the angels down except for just cause: if they came (to the ungodly), behold! no respite would they have!
إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا ٱلذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُۥ لَحَٰفِظُونَ
Innaa Nahnu nazalnaz Zikra wa Innaa lahoo lahaa fizoon
We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption).
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ فِى شِيَعِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Wa laqad arsalnaa min qablika fee shiya'il awwaleen
We did send messengers before thee amongst the religious sects of old:
وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ
Wa maa yaateehim mir Rasoolin illaa kaanoo bihee yastahzi'oon
But never came a messenger to them but they mocked him.
كَذَٰلِكَ نَسْلُكُهُۥ فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
kazaalika naslukuhoo fee quloobil mujrimeen
Even so do we let it creep into the hearts of the sinners -
لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِۦ ۖ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ سُنَّةُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Laa yu'minoona bihee wa qad khalat sunnatul awwaleen
That they should not believe in the (Message); but the ways of the ancients have passed away.
وَلَوْ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًۭا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَظَلُّوا۟ فِيهِ يَعْرُجُونَ
Wa law fatahnaa 'alaihim baabam minas samaaa'i fazaloo feehi ya'rujoon
Even if We opened out to them a gate from heaven, and they were to continue (all day) ascending therein,
لَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّمَا سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَٰرُنَا بَلْ نَحْنُ قَوْمٌۭ مَّسْحُورُونَ
Laqaaloo innamaa sukkirat absaarunaa bal nahnu qawmum mashooroon
They would only say: "Our eyes have been intoxicated: Nay, we have been bewitched by sorcery."
وَلَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ بُرُوجًۭا وَزَيَّنَّٰهَا لِلنَّٰظِرِينَ
Wa laqad ja'alnaa fissamaaa'i buroojanw wa zaiyannaahaa linnaazireen
It is We Who have set out the zodiacal signs in the heavens, and made them fair-seeming to (all) beholders;
وَحَفِظْنَٰهَا مِن كُلِّ شَيْطَٰنٍۢ رَّجِيمٍ
Wa hafiznaahaa min kulli Shaitaanir rajeem
And (moreover) We have guarded them from every cursed devil:
إِلَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَرَقَ ٱلسَّمْعَ فَأَتْبَعَهُۥ شِهَابٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ
Illaa manis taraqas sam'a fa atba'ahoo shihaabum mubeen
But any that gains a hearing by stealth, is pursued by a flaming fire, bright (to see).
وَٱلْأَرْضَ مَدَدْنَٰهَا وَأَلْقَيْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ وَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ مَّوْزُونٍۢ
Wal arda madadnaahaa wa alqainaa feehaa rawaasiya wa ambatnaa feehaa min kulli shai'im mawzoon
And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance.
وَجَعَلْنَا لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَعَٰيِشَ وَمَن لَّسْتُمْ لَهُۥ بِرَٰزِقِينَ
Wa ja'alnaa lakum feehaa ma'aayisha wa mal lastum lahoo biraaziqeen
And We have provided therein means of subsistence,- for you and for those for whose sustenance ye are not responsible.
وَإِن مِّن شَىْءٍ إِلَّا عِندَنَا خَزَآئِنُهُۥ وَمَا نُنَزِّلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا بِقَدَرٍۢ مَّعْلُومٍۢ
Wa im min shai'in illaa 'indanaa khazaaa 'inuhoo wa maa nunazziluhooo illaa biqadarim ma'loom
And there is not a thing but its (sources and) treasures (inexhaustible) are with Us; but We only send down thereof in due and ascertainable measures.
وَأَرْسَلْنَا ٱلرِّيَٰحَ لَوَٰقِحَ فَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۭ فَأَسْقَيْنَٰكُمُوهُ وَمَآ أَنتُمْ لَهُۥ بِخَٰزِنِينَ
Wa arsalnar riyaaha la waaqiha fa anzalnaa minas samaaa'i maaa'an fa asqai naakumoohu wa maaa antum lahoo bikhaazineen
And We send the fecundating winds, then cause the rain to descend from the sky, therewith providing you with water (in abundance), though ye are not the guardians of its stores.
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ نُحْىِۦ وَنُمِيتُ وَنَحْنُ ٱلْوَٰرِثُونَ
Wa innnaa la nahnu nuhyee wa numeetu wa nahnul waarisoon
And verily, it is We Who give life, and Who give death: it is We Who remain inheritors (after all else passes away).
وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا ٱلْمُسْتَقْدِمِينَ مِنكُمْ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا ٱلْمُسْتَـْٔخِرِينَ
Wa la qad 'alimnal mustaqdimeena minkum wa laqad 'alimnal mustaakhireen
To Us are known those of you who hasten forward, and those who lag behind.
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ حَكِيمٌ عَلِيمٌۭ
Wa inna Rabbaka Huwa yahshuruhum; innahoo Hakeem 'Aleem
Assuredly it is thy Lord Who will gather them together: for He is perfect in Wisdom and Knowledge.
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ مِن صَلْصَٰلٍۢ مِّنْ حَمَإٍۢ مَّسْنُونٍۢ
Wa laqad khalaqnal insaana min salsaalim min hama im masnoon
We created man from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape;
وَٱلْجَآنَّ خَلَقْنَٰهُ مِن قَبْلُ مِن نَّارِ ٱلسَّمُومِ
Waljaaanna khalaqnaahu min qablu min naaris samoom
And the Jinn race, We had created before, from the fire of a scorching wind.
وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ إِنِّى خَٰلِقٌۢ بَشَرًۭا مِّن صَلْصَٰلٍۢ مِّنْ حَمَإٍۢ مَّسْنُونٍۢ
Wa iz qaala Rabbuka lilmalaaa' ikati innee khaaliqum basharam min salsaalim min hama im masnoon
Behold! thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man, from sounding clay from mud moulded into shape;
فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُۥ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِى فَقَعُوا۟ لَهُۥ سَٰجِدِينَ
Fa izaa sawwaituhoo wa nafakhtu feehi mir roohee faqa'oo lahoo saajideen
"When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him."
فَسَجَدَ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ كُلُّهُمْ أَجْمَعُونَ
Fasajadal malaaa'ikatu kulluhum ajma'oon
So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together:
Meccan
