Verse 29:2
اَحَسِبَ النَّاسُ اَنْ یُّتْرَكُوْۤا اَنْ یَّقُوْلُوْۤا اٰمَنَّا وَهُمْ لَا یُفْتَنُوْنَ ۟
ʹAḥasiban naasu ʹañy yutrakooo ʹañy yaq̣oolooo ʹaamannaa Wahum laa- yuftanoon?
Do people think once they say, “We believe,” that they will be left without being put to the test?
Verse 29:3
وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ صَدَقُوْا وَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ الْكٰذِبِیْنَ ۟
Wa-laq̣ad fatannal laẓeena miñ q̣ablihim falayaʻlamannal laahul laẓeena ṣadaq̣oo wa-la-yaʻlamannal kaaẓibeen.
We certainly tested those before them. And ˹in this way˺ Allah will clearly distinguish between those who are truthful and those who are liars.
Verse 29:4
اَمْ حَسِبَ الَّذِیْنَ یَعْمَلُوْنَ السَّیِّاٰتِ اَنْ یَّسْبِقُوْنَا ؕ سَآءَ مَا یَحْكُمُوْنَ ۟
ʹAm ḥasibal laẓeena yaʻmaloonas sayyiʹaati ʹañy yasbiq̣oonaa? Saaaʹa maa- yaḥkumoon!
Or do the evildoers ˹simply˺ think that they will escape Us? How wrong is their judgment!
Verse 29:5
مَنْ كَانَ یَرْجُوْا لِقَآءَ اللّٰهِ فَاِنَّ اَجَلَ اللّٰهِ لَاٰتٍ ؕ وَهُوَ السَّمِیْعُ الْعَلِیْمُ ۟
Mañ Kaana yarjoo liq̣aaa ʹallaahi faʹinna ʹAjalal laahi laʹaat; wa-Huwas Sameeʻul ʻAleem.
Whoever hopes for the meeting with Allah, ˹let them know that˺ Allah’s appointed time is sure to come. He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
Verse 29:6
وَمَنْ جَاهَدَ فَاِنَّمَا یُجَاهِدُ لِنَفْسِهٖ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَغَنِیٌّ عَنِ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟
Wa-mañ jaahada faʹinnamaa yujaahidu linafsih; ʹinnal laaha la-G̣aniyyun ʻanil ʻaalameen.
And whoever strives ˹in Allah’s cause˺, only does so for their own good. Surely Allah is not in need of ˹any of˺ His creation.
Verse 29:7
وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَنُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنْهُمْ سَیِّاٰتِهِمْ وَلَنَجْزِیَنَّهُمْ اَحْسَنَ الَّذِیْ كَانُوْا یَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟
Wallaẓeena ʹaamanoo wa-ʻamiluṣ ṣaaliḥaati lanukaffiranna ʻanhum sayyiʹaatihim wa-lanajziyannahum ʹaḥsanal laẓee kaanoo yaʻmaloon.
As for those who believe and do good, We will certainly absolve them of their sins, and reward them according to the best of what they used to do.
Verse 29:8
وَوَصَّیْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ بِوَالِدَیْهِ حُسْنًا ؕ وَاِنْ جَاهَدٰكَ لِتُشْرِكَ بِیْ مَا لَیْسَ لَكَ بِهٖ عِلْمٌ فَلَا تُطِعْهُمَا ؕ اِلَیَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَاُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟
Wa-waṣṣaynal ʹiñsaana biwaalidayhi ḥusnaa: wa-ʹiñ jaahadaaka litushrika bee maa- laysa laka bihee ʻilmuñ falaa tuṭiʻhumaa. ʹIlayya marjiʻukum faʹunabbiʹukum̃ bimaa kuñtum taʻmaloon.
We have commanded people to honour their parents. But if they urge you to associate with Me what you have no knowledge of, then do not obey them. To Me you will ˹all˺ return, and then I will inform you of what you used to do.
Verse 29:9
وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَنُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ فِی الصّٰلِحِیْنَ ۟
Wallaẓeena ʹaamanoo wa-ʻamiluṣ ṣaaliḥaati lanudkhilannahum fiṣ Ṣaaliḥeen.
Those who believe and do good will surely be admitted by Us into ˹the company of˺ the righteous.
Verse 29:10
وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ یَّقُوْلُ اٰمَنَّا بِاللّٰهِ فَاِذَاۤ اُوْذِیَ فِی اللّٰهِ جَعَلَ فِتْنَةَ النَّاسِ كَعَذَابِ اللّٰهِ ؕ وَلَىِٕنْ جَآءَ نَصْرٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ لَیَقُوْلُنَّ اِنَّا كُنَّا مَعَكُمْ ؕ اَوَلَیْسَ اللّٰهُ بِاَعْلَمَ بِمَا فِیْ صُدُوْرِ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟
Wa-minan naasi mañy yaq̣oolu ʹaamannaa billaahi faʹiẓaaa ʹooẓiya fil laahi jaʻala fitnatan naasi kaʻAẓaabil laah! Wa-laʹiñ jaaaʹa naṣrum mir Rabbika layaq̣oolunna ʹinnaa kunnaa maʻakum! ʹA-walaysal laahu biʹaʻlama bimaa fee ṣudooril ʻaalameen?
There are some who say, “We believe in Allah,” but when they suffer in the cause of Allah, they mistake ˹this˺ persecution at the hands of people for the punishment of Allah. But when victory comes from your Lord, they surely say ˹to the believers˺, “We have always been with you.” Does Allah not know best what is in the hearts of all beings?
Verse 29:11
وَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ الْمُنٰفِقِیْنَ ۟
Wa-la-yaʻlamannal laahul laẓeena ʹaamanoo wa-la-yaʻlamannal Munaafiq̣een.
Allah will certainly distinguish between those who have ˹sure˺ faith and the hypocrites.
Verse 29:12
وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لِلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّبِعُوْا سَبِیْلَنَا وَلْنَحْمِلْ خَطٰیٰكُمْ ؕ وَمَا هُمْ بِحٰمِلِیْنَ مِنْ خَطٰیٰهُمْ مِّنْ شَیْءٍ ؕ اِنَّهُمْ لَكٰذِبُوْنَ ۟
Wa-q̣aalal laẓeena kafaroo lillaẓeena ʹaamanut tabiʻoo sabeelanaa walnaḥmil khaṭaayaakum. Wa-maa hum̃ biḥaamileena min khaṭaayaahum miñ shayʹ; ʹinnahum lakaaẓiboon!
The disbelievers say to the believers, “˹Just˺ follow our way, and we will bear ˹the burden of˺ your sins.” But they would never ˹want to˺ bear any of the believers’ sins. They are simply lying.
Verse 29:13
وَلَیَحْمِلُنَّ اَثْقَالَهُمْ وَاَثْقَالًا مَّعَ اَثْقَالِهِمْ ؗ وَلَیُسْـَٔلُنَّ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ عَمَّا كَانُوْا یَفْتَرُوْنَ ۟۠
Wa-la-yaḥmilunna ʹas̤q̣aalahum wa-ʹas̤q̣aalam maʻa ʹas̤q̣aalihim, wa-la-yusʹalunna Yawmal Q̣iyaamati ʻammaa kaanoo yaftaroon.
Yet they will certainly ˹be made to˺ carry their own burdens, as well as other burdens along with their own. And they will surely be questioned on Judgment Day about what they used to fabricate.
Verse 29:14
وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا اِلٰی قَوْمِهٖ فَلَبِثَ فِیْهِمْ اَلْفَ سَنَةٍ اِلَّا خَمْسِیْنَ عَامًا ؕ فَاَخَذَهُمُ الطُّوْفَانُ وَهُمْ ظٰلِمُوْنَ ۟
Wa-laq̣ad ʹarsalnaa Nooḥan ʹilaa q̣awmihee falabis̤a feehim ʹalfa sanatin ʹillaa khamseena ʻaamaa; faʹakhaẓahumuṭ Ṭoofaanu wa-hum z̤̣aalimoon.
Indeed, We sent Noah to his people, and he remained among them for a thousand years, less fifty. Then the Flood overtook them, while they persisted in wrongdoing.
Verse 29:15
فَاَنْجَیْنٰهُ وَاَصْحٰبَ السَّفِیْنَةِ وَجَعَلْنٰهَاۤ اٰیَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟
Faʹañjaynaahu wa-ʹAṣḥaabas Safeenati wa-jaʻalnaahaaa ʹAayatal lilʻAalameen!
But We delivered him and those in the Ark, making it a sign for all people.
Verse 29:16
وَاِبْرٰهِیْمَ اِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَاتَّقُوْهُ ؕ ذٰلِكُمْ خَیْرٌ لَّكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ ۟
Wa-ʹIbraaheema ʹiẓ q̣aala liq̣awmihiʻ budul laaha wattaq̣ooh. Ẓaalikum khayrul lakum ʹiñ kuñtum taʻlamoon!
And ˹remember˺ when Abraham said to his people, “Worship Allah, and fear Him. This is better for you, if only you knew.
Verse 29:17
اِنَّمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَوْثَانًا وَّتَخْلُقُوْنَ اِفْكًا ؕ اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ لَا یَمْلِكُوْنَ لَكُمْ رِزْقًا فَابْتَغُوْا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ الرِّزْقَ وَاعْبُدُوْهُ وَاشْكُرُوْا لَهٗ ؕ اِلَیْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَ ۟
ʹInnamaa taʻbudoona miñ doonil laahi ʹaws̤aanañwwa takhluq̣oona ʹifkaa. ʹInnal laẓeena taʻbudoona miñ doonil laahi laa- yamlikoona lakum rizq̣añ fabtag̣oo ʻiñdal laahir rizq̣a waʻbudoohu washkuroo lah. ʹIlayhi turjaʻoon.
You worship besides Allah nothing but idols, simply creating lies ˹about them˺. Those you worship besides Allah certainly cannot give you any provision. So seek provision from Allah ˹alone˺, worship Him, and be grateful to Him. To Him you will ˹all˺ be returned.
Verse 29:18
وَاِنْ تُكَذِّبُوْا فَقَدْ كَذَّبَ اُمَمٌ مِّنْ قَبْلِكُمْ ؕ وَمَا عَلَی الرَّسُوْلِ اِلَّا الْبَلٰغُ الْمُبِیْنُ ۟
Wa-ʹiñ tukaẓẓiboo faq̣ad kaẓẓaba ʹumamum miñ q̣ablikum. Wa-maa ʻalar rasooli ʹillal balaag̣ul mubeen.
If you ˹Meccans˺ persist in denial, so did ˹many˺ communities before you. The Messenger’s duty is only to deliver ˹the message˺ clearly.”
Verse 29:19
اَوَلَمْ یَرَوْا كَیْفَ یُبْدِئُ اللّٰهُ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ یُعِیْدُهٗ ؕ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ یَسِیْرٌ ۟
ʹA-walam yaraw kayfa yubdiʹul laahul khalq̣a s̤umma yuʻeeduh? ʹInna ẓaalika ʻalal laahi yaseer.
Have they not seen how Allah originates the creation then resurrects it? That is certainly easy for Allah.
Verse 29:20
قُلْ سِیْرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوْا كَیْفَ بَدَاَ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ اللّٰهُ یُنْشِئُ النَّشْاَةَ الْاٰخِرَةَ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ ۟ۚ
Q̣ul seeroo fil ʹarḍi fañz̤̣uroo kayfa badaʹal khalq̣a s̤ummal laahu yuñshiʹun nashʹatal ʹAakhirah: ʹInnal laaha ʻalaa kulli shayʹiñ Q̣adeer.
Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Travel throughout the land and see how He originated the creation, then Allah will bring it into being one more time. Surely Allah is Most Capable of everything.
Verse 29:21
یُعَذِّبُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَیَرْحَمُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ۚ وَاِلَیْهِ تُقْلَبُوْنَ ۟
Yuʻaẓẓibu mañy yashaaaʹu wa-yarḥamu mañy yashaaaʹ, wa-ʹilayhi tuq̣laboon.
He punishes whoever He wills, and shows mercy to whoever He wills. And you will ˹all˺ be returned to Him.
Verse 29:22
وَمَاۤ اَنْتُمْ بِمُعْجِزِیْنَ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَلَا فِی السَّمَآءِ ؗ وَمَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مِنْ وَّلِیٍّ وَّلَا نَصِیْرٍ ۟۠
Wa-maaa ʹañtum̃ bimuʻjizeena fil ʹarḍi wa-laa fis samaaaʹi wa-maa lakum miñ doonil laahi miñw waliyyiñw walaa naṣeer.
And you cannot escape Him on earth or in heaven. Nor have you any protector or helper besides Allah.”
Verse 29:23
وَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِاٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَلِقَآىِٕهٖۤ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ یَىِٕسُوْا مِنْ رَّحْمَتِیْ وَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ ۟
Wallaẓeena kafaroo biʹAayaatil laahi wa-Liq̣aaaʹiheee ʹulaaaʹika yaʹisoo mir raḥmatee wa-ʹulaaaʹika lahum ʻAẓaabun ʹaleem.
As for those who disbelieve in Allah’s signs and the meeting with Him, it is they who will have no hope in His mercy. And it is they who will suffer a painful punishment.
Verse 29:24
فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوْمِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ قَالُوا اقْتُلُوْهُ اَوْ حَرِّقُوْهُ فَاَنْجٰىهُ اللّٰهُ مِنَ النَّارِ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یُّؤْمِنُوْنَ ۟
Famaa kaana jawaaba q̣awmiheee ʹillaaa ʹañ q̣aaluq̣ tuloohu ʹaw ḥarriq̣oohu faʹañjaahul laahu minan Naar. ʹInna fee ẓaalika laʹAayaatil liq̣awmiñy yuʹminoon.
But the only response of Abraham’s people was to say: “Kill him or burn him!” But Allah saved him from the fire. Surely in this are signs for people who believe.
Verse 29:25
وَقَالَ اِنَّمَا اتَّخَذْتُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَوْثَانًا ۙ مَّوَدَّةَ بَیْنِكُمْ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا ۚ ثُمَّ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ یَكْفُرُ بَعْضُكُمْ بِبَعْضٍ وَّیَلْعَنُ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا ؗ وَّمَاْوٰىكُمُ النَّارُ وَمَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ نّٰصِرِیْنَ ۟ۗۙ
Wa-q̣aala ʹinnamat takhaẓtum miñ doonil laahi ʹaws̤aanam mawaddata baynikum fil ḥayaatid dunyaa; s̤umma yawmal Q̣iyaamati yakfuru baʻḍukum̃ bibaʻḍiñw wayalʻanu baʻḍukum̃ baʻḍaa; wa-maʹwaakumun Naaru wa-maa lakum min naaṣireen.
He said ˹to his people˺, “You have taken idols ˹for worship˺ instead of Allah, only to keep ˹the bond of˺ harmony among yourselves in this worldly life. But on the Day of Judgment you will disown and curse one another. Your home will be the Fire, and you will have no helper!”
Verse 29:26
فَاٰمَنَ لَهٗ لُوْطٌ ۘ وَقَالَ اِنِّیْ مُهَاجِرٌ اِلٰی رَبِّیْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ ۟
Faʹaamana lahoo Looṭ. Wa-q̣aala ʹinnee muhaajirun ʹilaa Rabbee; ʹinnahoo Huwal ʻAzeezul Ḥakeem.
So Lot believed in him. And Abraham said, “I am emigrating ˹in obedience˺ to my Lord. He ˹alone˺ is indeed the Almighty, All-Wise.”
Verse 29:27
وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗۤ اِسْحٰقَ وَیَعْقُوْبَ وَجَعَلْنَا فِیْ ذُرِّیَّتِهِ النُّبُوَّةَ وَالْكِتٰبَ وَاٰتَیْنٰهُ اَجْرَهٗ فِی الدُّنْیَا ۚ وَاِنَّهٗ فِی الْاٰخِرَةِ لَمِنَ الصّٰلِحِیْنَ ۟
Wa-wahabnaa lahooo ʹIs-ḥaaq̣a wa-Yaʻq̣ooba wa-jaʻalnaa fee ẓurriyyatihin Nubuwwata wal-Kitaaba wa-ʹaataynaahu ʹajrahoo fid dunyaa; wa-ʹinnahoo fil ʹAakhirati laminaṣ Ṣaaliḥeen:
We blessed him with Isaac and ˹later˺ Jacob, and reserved prophethood and revelation for his descendants. We gave him his reward in this life, and in the Hereafter he will certainly be among the righteous.
Verse 29:28
وَلُوْطًا اِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهٖۤ اِنَّكُمْ لَتَاْتُوْنَ الْفَاحِشَةَ ؗ مَا سَبَقَكُمْ بِهَا مِنْ اَحَدٍ مِّنَ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟
Wa-Looṭan ʹiẓ q̣aala liq̣awmiheee ʹinnakum lataʹtoonal faaḥishata maa- sabaq̣akum̃ bihaa min ʹaḥadim minal ʻAalameen.
And ˹remember˺ when Lot rebuked ˹the men of˺ his people: “You certainly commit a shameful deed that no man has ever done before you.
Verse 29:29
اَىِٕنَّكُمْ لَتَاْتُوْنَ الرِّجَالَ وَتَقْطَعُوْنَ السَّبِیْلَ ۙ۬ وَتَاْتُوْنَ فِیْ نَادِیْكُمُ الْمُنْكَرَ ؕ فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوْمِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ قَالُوا ائْتِنَا بِعَذَابِ اللّٰهِ اِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقِیْنَ ۟
ʹAʹinnakum lataʹtoonar rijaala wa-taq̣ṭaʻoonas sabeel? Wa-taʹtoona fee naadeekumul muñkar? Famaa kaana jawaaba q̣awmiheee ʹillaaa ʹañ q̣aaluʹ tinaa biʻAẓaabil laahi ʹiñ kuñta minaṣ ṣaadiq̣een.
Do you really lust after ˹other˺ men, abuse the travellers, and practice immorality ˹openly˺ in your gatherings?” His people’s only response was to say ˹mockingly˺: “Bring Allah’s punishment upon us, if what you say is true.”
Verse 29:30
قَالَ رَبِّ انْصُرْنِیْ عَلَی الْقَوْمِ الْمُفْسِدِیْنَ ۟۠
Q̣aala Rabbiñ ṣurnee ʻalal q̣awmil mufsideen!
Lot prayed, “My Lord! Help me against the people of corruption.”
Verse 29:31
وَلَمَّا جَآءَتْ رُسُلُنَاۤ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ بِالْبُشْرٰی ۙ قَالُوْۤا اِنَّا مُهْلِكُوْۤا اَهْلِ هٰذِهِ الْقَرْیَةِ ۚ اِنَّ اَهْلَهَا كَانُوْا ظٰلِمِیْنَ ۟ۚۖ
Wa-lammaa jaaaʹat Rusulunaaa ʹIbraaheema bil-bushraa q̣aalooo ʹinnaa muhlikooo ʹahli haaẓihil q̣aryah: ʹinna ʹahlahaa kaanoo z̤̣aalimeen.
When Our messenger-angels came to Abraham with the good news ˹of the birth of Isaac˺, they said, “We are going to destroy the people of this city ˹of Sodom˺, for its people have persisted in wrongdoing.”
Verse 29:32
قَالَ اِنَّ فِیْهَا لُوْطًا ؕ قَالُوْا نَحْنُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ فِیْهَا ؗۥ لَنُنَجِّیَنَّهٗ وَاَهْلَهٗۤ اِلَّا امْرَاَتَهٗ ؗۗ كَانَتْ مِنَ الْغٰبِرِیْنَ ۟
Q̣aala ʹinna feeha Looṭaa. Q̣aaloo naḥnu ʹaʻlamu bimañ feehaa. Lanunajjiyannahoo wa-ʹahlahooo ʹillam raʹatahoo kaanat minal g̣aabireen!
He said, “But Lot is there!” They responded, “We know best who is there. We will certainly save him and his family—except his wife, who is one of the doomed.”
Verse 29:33
وَلَمَّاۤ اَنْ جَآءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوْطًا سِیْٓءَ بِهِمْ وَضَاقَ بِهِمْ ذَرْعًا وَّقَالُوْا لَا تَخَفْ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ ۫ اِنَّا مُنَجُّوْكَ وَاَهْلَكَ اِلَّا امْرَاَتَكَ كَانَتْ مِنَ الْغٰبِرِیْنَ ۟
Wa-lammaaa ʹañ jaaaʹat Rusulunaa Looṭañ seeeʹa bihim wa-ḍaaq̣a bihim ẓarʻañw waq̣aaloo laa- takhaf wa-laa taḥzan: ʹinnaa munajjooka wa-ʹahlaka ʹillam raʹataka kaanat minal g̣aabireen.
And when Our messenger-angels came to Lot, he was distressed and worried by their arrival. They reassured ˹him˺, “Do not fear, nor grieve. We will surely deliver you and your family—except your wife, who is one of the doomed.
Verse 29:34
اِنَّا مُنْزِلُوْنَ عَلٰۤی اَهْلِ هٰذِهِ الْقَرْیَةِ رِجْزًا مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَفْسُقُوْنَ ۟
ʹInnaa muñziloona ʻalaaa ʹahli Haaẓihil q̣aryati Rijzam minas samaaaʹi bimaa kaanoo yafsuq̣oon.
We are certainly bringing down a punishment from heaven upon the people of this city for their rebelliousness.”
Verse 29:35
وَلَقَدْ تَّرَكْنَا مِنْهَاۤ اٰیَةً بَیِّنَةً لِّقَوْمٍ یَّعْقِلُوْنَ ۟
Wa-laq̣at taraknaa min-haaa ʹAayatam bayyinatal liq̣awmiñy yaʻq̣iloon.
And We did leave ˹some of˺ its ruins as a clear lesson for people of understanding.
Verse 29:36
وَاِلٰی مَدْیَنَ اَخَاهُمْ شُعَیْبًا ۙ فَقَالَ یٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَارْجُوا الْیَوْمَ الْاٰخِرَ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ مُفْسِدِیْنَ ۟
Wa-ʹilaa Madyana ʹakhaahum shuʻaybañ faq̣aala yaa-q̣awmiʻ budul laaha warjul Yawmal ʹAakhira wa-laa taʻs̤aw fil ʹarḍi mufsideen.
And to the people of Midian ˹We sent˺ their brother Shu’aib. He said, “O my people! Worship Allah, and hope for ˹the reward of˺ the Last Day. And do not go about spreading corruption in the land.”
Verse 29:37
فَكَذَّبُوْهُ فَاَخَذَتْهُمُ الرَّجْفَةُ فَاَصْبَحُوْا فِیْ دَارِهِمْ جٰثِمِیْنَ ۟ؗ
Fakaẓẓaboohu faʹakhaẓathumur rajfatu faʹaṣbaḥoo fee daarihim jaas̤imeen.
But they rejected him, so an ˹overwhelming˺ earthquake struck them and they fell lifeless in their homes.
Verse 29:38
وَعَادًا وَّثَمُوْدَاۡ وَقَدْ تَّبَیَّنَ لَكُمْ مِّنْ مَّسٰكِنِهِمْ ۫ وَزَیَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّیْطٰنُ اَعْمَالَهُمْ فَصَدَّهُمْ عَنِ السَّبِیْلِ وَكَانُوْا مُسْتَبْصِرِیْنَ ۟ۙ
Wa-ʻAadañw Wa-S̤amooda waq̣at tabayyana lakum mim masaakinihim. Wa-zayyana lahumush Shayṭaanu ʹaʻmaalahum faṣaddahum ʻanis Sabeeli wa-kaanoo Mustabṣireen.
And the people of ’Ȃd and Thamûd ˹met a similar fate˺, which must be clear to you ˹Meccans˺ from their ruins. Satan made their ˹evil˺ deeds appealing to them, hindering them from the ˹Right˺ Way, although they were capable of reasoning.
Verse 29:39
وَقَارُوْنَ وَفِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامٰنَ ۫ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ مُّوْسٰی بِالْبَیِّنٰتِ فَاسْتَكْبَرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَمَا كَانُوْا سٰبِقِیْنَ ۟ۚۖ
Wa-Q̣aaroona wa-Firʻawna wa-Haamaan: wa-laq̣ad jaaaʹahum Moosaa bil-Bayyinaati fastakbaroo fil ʹarḍi wa-maa kaanoo saabiq̣een.
˹We˺ also ˹destroyed˺ Korah, Pharaoh, and Hamân. Indeed, Moses had come to them with clear proofs, but they behaved arrogantly in the land. Yet they could not escape ˹Us˺.
Verse 29:40
فَكُلًّا اَخَذْنَا بِذَنْۢبِهٖ ۚ فَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ اَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِ حَاصِبًا ۚ وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ اَخَذَتْهُ الصَّیْحَةُ ۚ وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ خَسَفْنَا بِهِ الْاَرْضَ ۚ وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ اَغْرَقْنَا ۚ وَمَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِیَظْلِمَهُمْ وَلٰكِنْ كَانُوْۤا اَنْفُسَهُمْ یَظْلِمُوْنَ ۟
Fakullan ʹakhaẓnaa biẓambih: faminhum man ʹarsalnaa ʻalayhi ḥaaṣibaa; wa-minhum man ʹakhaẓathuṣ Ṣayḥah; wa-minhum man khasafnaa bihil ʹarḍ: wa-minhum man ʹag̣raq̣naa: wa-maa kaanal laahu liyaz̤̣limahum wa-laakiñ kaanooo ʹañfusahum yaz̤̣limoon.
So We seized each ˹people˺ for their sin: against some of them We sent a storm of stones, some were overtaken by a ˹mighty˺ blast, some We caused the earth to swallow, and some We drowned. Allah would not have wronged them, but it was they who wronged themselves.
Verse 29:41
مَثَلُ الَّذِیْنَ اتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَوْلِیَآءَ كَمَثَلِ الْعَنْكَبُوْتِ ۚۖ اِتَّخَذَتْ بَیْتًا ؕ وَاِنَّ اَوْهَنَ الْبُیُوْتِ لَبَیْتُ الْعَنْكَبُوْتِ ۘ لَوْ كَانُوْا یَعْلَمُوْنَ ۟
Mas̤alul laẓeenat takhaẓoo miñ doonil laahi ʹawliyaaaʹa kamas̤alil ʻAñkaboot: ʹittakhaẓat baytaa! Wa-ʹinna ʹawhanal buyooti labaytul ʻAñkaboot. Law kaanoo yaʻlamoon.
The parable of those who take protectors other than Allah is that of a spider spinning a shelter. And the flimsiest of all shelters is certainly that of a spider, if only they knew.
Verse 29:42
اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَعْلَمُ مَا یَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ مِنْ شَیْءٍ ؕ وَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ ۟
ʹInnal laaha yaʻlamu maa- yadʻoona miñ doonihee miñ shayʹ: wa-Huwal ʻAzeezul Ḥakeem.
Allah surely knows that whatever ˹gods˺ they invoke besides Him are ˹simply˺ nothing. For He is the Almighty, All-Wise.
Verse 29:43
وَتِلْكَ الْاَمْثَالُ نَضْرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ ۚ وَمَا یَعْقِلُهَاۤ اِلَّا الْعٰلِمُوْنَ ۟
Wa-tilkal ʹAms̤aalu naḍribuhaa linnaasi wa-maa yaʻq̣iluhaaa ʹillal ʻAalimoon.
These are the parables We set forth for humanity, but none will understand them except the people of knowledge.
Verse 29:44
خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیَةً لِّلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟۠
Khalaq̣al laahus samaawaati wal-ʹarḍa bilḥaq̣q̣. ʹInna fee ẓaalika laʹAayatal lil-Muʹmineen.
Allah created the heavens and the earth for a purpose. Surely in this is a sign for the people of faith.
Verse 29:45
اُتْلُ مَاۤ اُوْحِیَ اِلَیْكَ مِنَ الْكِتٰبِ وَاَقِمِ الصَّلٰوةَ ؕ اِنَّ الصَّلٰوةَ تَنْهٰی عَنِ الْفَحْشَآءِ وَالْمُنْكَرِ ؕ وَلَذِكْرُ اللّٰهِ اَكْبَرُ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ مَا تَصْنَعُوْنَ ۟
ʹUtlu maaa ʹooḥiya ʹilayka minal Kitaabi wa-ʹaq̣imiṣ Ṣalaah: ʹinnaṣ Ṣalaata tanhaa ʻanil faḥshaaaʹi wal-muñkar; wa-la-Ẓikrul laahi ʹAkbar. Wal-laahu yaʻlamu maa- taṣnaʻoon.
Recite what has been revealed to you of the Book and establish prayer. Indeed, ˹genuine˺ prayer should deter ˹one˺ from indecency and wickedness. The remembrance of Allah is ˹an˺ even greater ˹deterrent˺. And Allah ˹fully˺ knows what you ˹all˺ do.
Verse 29:46
وَلَا تُجَادِلُوْۤا اَهْلَ الْكِتٰبِ اِلَّا بِالَّتِیْ هِیَ اَحْسَنُ ۖۗ اِلَّا الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا مِنْهُمْ وَقُوْلُوْۤا اٰمَنَّا بِالَّذِیْۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْنَا وَاُنْزِلَ اِلَیْكُمْ وَاِلٰهُنَا وَاِلٰهُكُمْ وَاحِدٌ وَّنَحْنُ لَهٗ مُسْلِمُوْنَ ۟
Wa-laa tujaadilooo ʹAhlal Kitaabi ʹillaa billatee hiya ʹaḥsanu ʹillal laẓeena z̤̣alamoo minhum wa-q̣oolooo ʹaamannaa billaẓeee ʹuñzila ʹilaynaa wa-ʹuñzila ʹilaykum wa-ʹIlaahunaa wa-ʹIlaahukum Waaḥiduñwwa naḥnu lahoo Muslimoon.
Do not argue with the People of the Book unless gracefully, except with those of them who act wrongfully. And say, “We believe in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed to you. Our God and your God is ˹only˺ One. And to Him we ˹fully˺ submit.”
Verse 29:47
وَكَذٰلِكَ اَنْزَلْنَاۤ اِلَیْكَ الْكِتٰبَ ؕ فَالَّذِیْنَ اٰتَیْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِهٖ ۚ وَمِنْ هٰۤؤُلَآءِ مَنْ یُّؤْمِنُ بِهٖ ؕ وَمَا یَجْحَدُ بِاٰیٰتِنَاۤ اِلَّا الْكٰفِرُوْنَ ۟
Wa-kaẓaalika ʹañzalnaaa ʹilaykal Kitaab. Fallaẓeena ʹaataynaahumul Kitaaba yuʹminoona bihee wa-min haaaʹulaaaʹi mañy yuʹminu bih: wa-maa yajḥadu biʹAayaatinaaa ʹillal kaafiroon.
Similarly ˹to earlier messengers˺, We have revealed to you a Book ˹O Prophet˺. ˹The faithful of˺ those to whom We gave the Scriptures believe in it, as do some of these ˹pagan Arabs˺. And none denies Our revelations except the ˹stubborn˺ disbelievers.
Verse 29:48
وَمَا كُنْتَ تَتْلُوْا مِنْ قَبْلِهٖ مِنْ كِتٰبٍ وَّلَا تَخُطُّهٗ بِیَمِیْنِكَ اِذًا لَّارْتَابَ الْمُبْطِلُوْنَ ۟
Wa-maa kuñta tatloo miñ q̣ablihee miñ kitaabiñw walaa takhuṭṭuhoo biyameenika ʹiẓal lartaabal mubṭiloon.
You ˹O Prophet˺ could not read any writing ˹even˺ before this ˹revelation˺, nor could you write at all. Otherwise, the people of falsehood would have been suspicious.
Verse 29:49
بَلْ هُوَ اٰیٰتٌۢ بَیِّنٰتٌ فِیْ صُدُوْرِ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ ؕ وَمَا یَجْحَدُ بِاٰیٰتِنَاۤ اِلَّا الظّٰلِمُوْنَ ۟
Bal huwa ʹAayaatum bayyinaatuñ fee ṣudooril laẓeena ʹootul ʻilm: wa-maa yajḥadu biʹAayaatinaaa ʹillaz̤̣ z̤̣aalimoon.
But this ˹Quran˺ is ˹a set of˺ clear revelations ˹preserved˺ in the hearts of those gifted with knowledge. And none denies Our revelations except the ˹stubborn˺ wrongdoers.
Verse 29:50
وَقَالُوْا لَوْلَاۤ اُنْزِلَ عَلَیْهِ اٰیٰتٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ ؕ قُلْ اِنَّمَا الْاٰیٰتُ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ ؕ وَاِنَّمَاۤ اَنَا نَذِیْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ ۟
Wa-q̣aaloo Law-laaa ʹuñzila ʻalayhi ʹAayaatum mir Rabbih? Q̣ul ʹinnamal ʹAayaatu ʻiñdal laah: wa-ʹinnamaaa ʹana naẓeerum mubeen.
They say, “If only ˹some˺ signs had been sent down to him from his Lord!” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Signs are only with Allah. And I am only sent with a clear warning.”
Verse 29:51
اَوَلَمْ یَكْفِهِمْ اَنَّاۤ اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَیْكَ الْكِتٰبَ یُتْلٰی عَلَیْهِمْ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَرَحْمَةً وَّذِكْرٰی لِقَوْمٍ یُّؤْمِنُوْنَ ۟۠
ʹA-walam yakfihim ʹannaaa ʹañzalnaa ʻalaykal Kitaaba yutlaa ʻalayhim? ʹInna fee ẓaalika la-Raḥmatañw wa-Ẓikraa liq̣awmiñy yuʹminoon.
Is it not enough for them that We have sent down to you the Book, ˹which is˺ recited to them. Surely in this ˹Quran˺ is a mercy and reminder for people who believe.
Verse 29:52
قُلْ كَفٰی بِاللّٰهِ بَیْنِیْ وَبَیْنَكُمْ شَهِیْدًا ۚ یَعْلَمُ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِالْبَاطِلِ وَكَفَرُوْا بِاللّٰهِ ۙ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ هُمُ الْخٰسِرُوْنَ ۟
Q̣ul kafaa billaahi baynee wa-baynakum Shaheedaa: yaʻlamu maa- fis samaawaati wal-ʹarḍ. Wallaẓeena ʹaamanoo bil-baaṭili wa-kafaroo billaahi ʹulaaaʹika humul khaasiroon.
Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Sufficient is Allah as a Witness between me and you. He ˹fully˺ knows whatever is in the heavens and the earth. And those who believe in falsehood and disbelieve in Allah, it is they who are the ˹true˺ losers.”
Verse 29:53
وَیَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَكَ بِالْعَذَابِ ؕ وَلَوْلَاۤ اَجَلٌ مُّسَمًّی لَّجَآءَهُمُ الْعَذَابُ ؕ وَلَیَاْتِیَنَّهُمْ بَغْتَةً وَّهُمْ لَا یَشْعُرُوْنَ ۟
Wa-yastaʻjiloonaka bilʻAẓaab: Wa-lawlaaa ʹajalum musammal lajaaaʹahumul ʻAẓaab: walayaʹtiyannahum̃ bag̣tatañw wahum laa- yashʻuroon!
They challenge you ˹O Prophet˺ to hasten the punishment. Had it not been for a time already set, the punishment would have certainly come to them ˹at once˺. But it will definitely take them by surprise when they least expect it.
Verse 29:54
یَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَكَ بِالْعَذَابِ ؕ وَاِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمُحِیْطَةٌ بِالْكٰفِرِیْنَ ۟ۙ
Yastaʻjiloonaka bilʻAẓaab: wa-ʹinna Jahannama lamuḥeeṭatum bil-kaafireen!
They urge you to hasten the punishment. And Hell will certainly encompass the disbelievers
Verse 29:55
یَوْمَ یَغْشٰىهُمُ الْعَذَابُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِنْ تَحْتِ اَرْجُلِهِمْ وَیَقُوْلُ ذُوْقُوْا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟
Yawma yag̣shaahumul ʻaẓaabu miñ fawq̣ihim wa-miñ taḥti ʹarjulihim wa-yaq̣oolu ẓooq̣oo maa- kuñtum taʻmaloon.
on the Day the punishment will overwhelm them from above them and from below their feet. And it will be said, “Reap what you sowed.”
Verse 29:56
یٰعِبَادِیَ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اِنَّ اَرْضِیْ وَاسِعَةٌ فَاِیَّایَ فَاعْبُدُوْنِ ۟
Yaa-ʻibaadiyal laẓeena ʹaamanooo ʹinna ʹarḍee waasiʻatuñ faʹiyyaaya faʻbudoon!
O My believing servants! My earth is truly spacious, so worship Me ˹alone˺.
Verse 29:57
كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَآىِٕقَةُ الْمَوْتِ ۫ ثُمَّ اِلَیْنَا تُرْجَعُوْنَ ۟
Kullu nafsiñ ẓaaaʹiq̣atul Mawt: s̤umma ʹilaynaa turjaʻoon.
Every soul will taste death, then to Us you will ˹all˺ be returned.
Verse 29:58
وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَنُبَوِّئَنَّهُمْ مِّنَ الْجَنَّةِ غُرَفًا تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِیْنَ فِیْهَا ؕ نِعْمَ اَجْرُ الْعٰمِلِیْنَ ۟ۗۖ
Wallaẓeena ʹaamanoo wa-ʻamiluṣ Ṣaaliḥaati lanubawwiʹannahum minal Jannati g̣urafañ tajree miñ taḥtihal ʹanhaaru khaalideena feehaa;― niʻma ʹajrul ʻaamileen!
˹As for˺ those who believe and do good, We will certainly house them in ˹elevated˺ mansions in Paradise, under which rivers flow, to stay there forever. How excellent is the reward for those who work ˹righteousness!˺—
Verse 29:59
الَّذِیْنَ صَبَرُوْا وَعَلٰی رَبِّهِمْ یَتَوَكَّلُوْنَ ۟
ʹAllaẓeena ṣabaroo wa-ʻalaa Rabbihim yatawakkaloon.
those who patiently endure, and put their trust in their Lord!
Verse 29:60
وَكَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ دَآبَّةٍ لَّا تَحْمِلُ رِزْقَهَا ۗۖ اَللّٰهُ یَرْزُقُهَا وَاِیَّاكُمْ ۖؗ وَهُوَ السَّمِیْعُ الْعَلِیْمُ ۟
Wa-kaʹayyim miñ daaabbatil laa taḥmilu rizq̣ahaa? ʹAllaahu yarzuq̣uhaa wa-ʹiyyaakum wa-Huwas Sameeʻul ʻAleem.
How many are the creatures that cannot secure their provisions! ˹It is˺ Allah ˹Who˺ provides for them and you ˹as well˺. He is indeed the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
Verse 29:61
وَلَىِٕنْ سَاَلْتَهُمْ مَّنْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ لَیَقُوْلُنَّ اللّٰهُ ۚ فَاَنّٰی یُؤْفَكُوْنَ ۟
Wa-laʹiñ saʹaltahum man khalaq̣as samaawaati wal-ʹarḍa wa-sakhkharash shamsa wal-q̣amara layaq̣oolunnal laahu faʹannaa yuʹfakoon?
If you ask them ˹O Prophet˺ who created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon ˹for your benefit˺, they will certainly say, “Allah!” How can they then be deluded ˹from the truth˺?
Verse 29:62
اَللّٰهُ یَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ یَّشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖ وَیَقْدِرُ لَهٗ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عَلِیْمٌ ۟
ʹAllaahu yabsuṭur rizq̣a limañy yashaaaʹu min ʻibaadihee wa-yaq̣diru lah: ʹinnal laaha bikulli shayʹin ʻAleem.
Allah gives abundant or limited provisions to whoever He wills of His servants. Surely Allah has ˹full˺ knowledge of everything.
Verse 29:63
وَلَىِٕنْ سَاَلْتَهُمْ مَّنْ نَّزَّلَ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَاَحْیَا بِهِ الْاَرْضَ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَوْتِهَا لَیَقُوْلُنَّ اللّٰهُ ؕ قُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ ؕ بَلْ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا یَعْقِلُوْنَ ۟۠
Wa-laʹiñ saʹaltahum man nazzala minas samaaaʹi maaaʹañ faʹaḥyaa bihil ʹarḍa mim baʻdi mawtihaa layaq̣oolunnal laah! Q̣ulil Ḥamdu lillaah! Bal ʹaks̤aruhum laa- yaʻq̣iloon.
And if you ask them who sends down rain from the sky, giving life to the earth after its death, they will surely say, “Allah!” Say, “Praise be to Allah!” In fact, most of them do not understand.
Verse 29:64
وَمَا هٰذِهِ الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَاۤ اِلَّا لَهْوٌ وَّلَعِبٌ ؕ وَاِنَّ الدَّارَ الْاٰخِرَةَ لَهِیَ الْحَیَوَانُ ۘ لَوْ كَانُوْا یَعْلَمُوْنَ ۟
Wa-maa haaẓihil ḥayaatud dunyaaa ʹillaa lahwuñw walaʻib? Wa-ʹinnad Daaral ʹAakhirata lahiyal Ḥayawaan. Law kaanu yaʻlamoon.
This worldly life is no more than play and amusement. But the Hereafter is indeed the real life, if only they knew.
Verse 29:65
فَاِذَا رَكِبُوْا فِی الْفُلْكِ دَعَوُا اللّٰهَ مُخْلِصِیْنَ لَهُ الدِّیْنَ ۚ۬ فَلَمَّا نَجّٰىهُمْ اِلَی الْبَرِّ اِذَا هُمْ یُشْرِكُوْنَ ۟ۙ
Faʹiẓaa rakiboo fil fulki daʻawul laaha mukhliṣeena lahud deen: falammaa najjaahum ʹilal barri ʹiẓaa hum yushrikoon!
If they happen to be aboard a ship ˹caught in a storm˺, they cry out to Allah ˹alone˺ in sincere devotion. But as soon as He delivers them ˹safely˺ to shore, they associate ˹others with Him once again˺.
Verse 29:66
لِیَكْفُرُوْا بِمَاۤ اٰتَیْنٰهُمْ ۙۚ وَلِیَتَمَتَّعُوْا ۥ فَسَوْفَ یَعْلَمُوْنَ ۟
Liyakfuroo bimaaa ʹaataynaahum, wa-li-yatamattaʻoo! fasawfa yaʻlamoon.
So let them be ungrateful for all We have given them, and ˹let them˺ enjoy themselves ˹for now˺! For they will soon know.
Verse 29:67
اَوَلَمْ یَرَوْا اَنَّا جَعَلْنَا حَرَمًا اٰمِنًا وَّیُتَخَطَّفُ النَّاسُ مِنْ حَوْلِهِمْ ؕ اَفَبِالْبَاطِلِ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ وَبِنِعْمَةِ اللّٰهِ یَكْفُرُوْنَ ۟
ʹAwalam yaraw ʹannaa jaʻalnaa Ḥaraman ʹaaminañw Wayutakhaṭṭafun naasu min ḥaw-lihim? ʹAfabilbaaṭili yuʹminoona wa-biniʻmatil laahi yakfuroon?
Have they not seen how We have made ˹Mecca˺ a safe haven, whereas people ˹all˺ around them are snatched away? How can they then believe in falsehood and deny Allah’s favours?
Verse 29:68
وَمَنْ اَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ افْتَرٰی عَلَی اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا اَوْ كَذَّبَ بِالْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَآءَهٗ ؕ اَلَیْسَ فِیْ جَهَنَّمَ مَثْوًی لِّلْكٰفِرِیْنَ ۟
Wa-man ʹaz̤̣lamu mimma nif-taraa ʻalal laahi kaẓiban ʹaw kaẓẓaba bil-Ḥaq̣q̣i lammaa jaaaʹah? ʹAlaysa fee Jahannama mas̤wal lil-kaafireen?
And who does more wrong than those who fabricate lies against Allah or reject the truth after it has reached them? Is Hell not a ˹fitting˺ home for the disbelievers?
Verse 29:69
وَالَّذِیْنَ جَاهَدُوْا فِیْنَا لَنَهْدِیَنَّهُمْ سُبُلَنَا ؕ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَمَعَ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ ۟۠
Wallaẓeena jaahadoo feenaa lanahdiyannahum Subulanaa; wa-ʹinnal laaha lamaʻal Muḥsineen.
As for those who struggle in Our cause, We will surely guide them along Our Way. And Allah is certainly with the good-doers.
