Verse 45:3

اِنَّ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟ؕ

ʹInna fis samaawaati wal-ʹarḍi laʹAayaatil lil-Muʹmineen.

Surely in ˹the creation of˺ the heavens and the earth are signs for the believers.

Verse 45:4

وَفِیْ خَلْقِكُمْ وَمَا یَبُثُّ مِنْ دَآبَّةٍ اٰیٰتٌ لِّقَوْمٍ یُّوْقِنُوْنَ ۟ۙ

Wa-fee khalq̣ikum wa-maa yabus̤s̤u miñ daaabbatin ʹAayaatul liq̣awmiñy yooq̣inoon.

And in your own creation, and whatever living beings He dispersed, are signs for people of sure faith.

Verse 45:5

وَاخْتِلَافِ الَّیْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَمَاۤ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مِنْ رِّزْقٍ فَاَحْیَا بِهِ الْاَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا وَتَصْرِیْفِ الرِّیٰحِ اٰیٰتٌ لِّقَوْمٍ یَّعْقِلُوْنَ ۟

Wakhtilaafil Layli wan-Nahaari wa-maaa ʹañzalal laahu minas samaaaʹi mir Rizq̣iñ faʹaḥyaa bihil ʹarḍa baʻda mawtihaa wa-taṣreefir riyaaḥi ʹAayaatul liq̣awmiñy yaʻq̣iloon.

And ˹in˺ the alternation of the day and the night, the provision sent down from the skies by Allah—reviving the earth after its death—and the shifting of the winds, are signs for people of understanding.

Verse 45:6

تِلْكَ اٰیٰتُ اللّٰهِ نَتْلُوْهَا عَلَیْكَ بِالْحَقِّ ۚ فَبِاَیِّ حَدِیْثٍ بَعْدَ اللّٰهِ وَاٰیٰتِهٖ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ ۟

Tilka ʹAayaatul laahi natloohaa ʻalayka bil-ḥaq̣q̣: fabiʹayyi ḥadees̤im baʻdal laahi wa-ʹAayaatihee yuʹminoon?

These are Allah’s revelations which We recite to you ˹O Prophet˺ in truth. So what message will they believe in after ˹denying˺ Allah and His revelations?

Verse 45:7

وَیْلٌ لِّكُلِّ اَفَّاكٍ اَثِیْمٍ ۟ۙ

Waylul likulli ʹaffaakin ʹas̤eem:

Woe to every sinful liar.

Verse 45:8

یَّسْمَعُ اٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ تُتْلٰی عَلَیْهِ ثُمَّ یُصِرُّ مُسْتَكْبِرًا كَاَنْ لَّمْ یَسْمَعْهَا ۚ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِعَذَابٍ اَلِیْمٍ ۟

yasmaʻu ʹAayaatil laahi tutlaa ʻalayhi s̤umma yuṣirru mustakbirañ kaʹal lam yasmaʻhaa: fabashshirhu biʻAẓaabin ʹaleem!

They hear Allah’s revelations recited to them, then persist ˹in denial˺ arrogantly as if they did not hear them. So give them good news of a painful punishment.

Verse 45:9

وَاِذَا عَلِمَ مِنْ اٰیٰتِنَا شَیْـَٔا تَّخَذَهَا هُزُوًا ؕ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِیْنٌ ۟ؕ

Wa-ʹiẓaaa ʻalima min ʹAayaatinaa shayʹanit takhaẓahaa huzuwaa: ʹulaaaʹika lahum ʻAẓaabum muheen.

And whenever they learn anything of Our revelations, they make a mockery of it. It is they who will suffer a humiliating punishment.

Verse 45:10

مِنْ وَّرَآىِٕهِمْ جَهَنَّمُ ۚ وَلَا یُغْنِیْ عَنْهُمْ مَّا كَسَبُوْا شَیْـًٔا وَّلَا مَا اتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَوْلِیَآءَ ۚ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِیْمٌ ۟ؕ

Miñw Waraaaʹihim Jahannam: wa-laa yug̣nee ʻanhum maa kasaboo shayʹañw walaa mat takhaẓoo miñ doonil laahi ʹawliyaaaʹ: wa-lahum ʻAẓaabun ʻaz̤̣eem.

Awaiting them is Hell. Their ˹worldly˺ gains will not be of any benefit to them whatsoever, nor will those protectors they have taken besides Allah. And they will suffer a tremendous punishment.

Verse 45:11

هٰذَا هُدًی ۚ وَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِاٰیٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مِّنْ رِّجْزٍ اَلِیْمٌ ۟۠

Haaẓaa Hudaa: wal-laẓeena kafaroo biʹAayaati Rabbihim lahum ʻAẓaabum mir rijzin ʹaleem.

This ˹Quran˺ is ˹true˺ guidance. And those who deny their Lord’s revelations will suffer the ˹worst˺ torment of agonizing pain.

Verse 45:12

اَللّٰهُ الَّذِیْ سَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْبَحْرَ لِتَجْرِیَ الْفُلْكُ فِیْهِ بِاَمْرِهٖ وَلِتَبْتَغُوْا مِنْ فَضْلِهٖ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ ۟ۚ

ʹAllaahul laẓee sakhkhara lakumul baḥra litajriyal fulku feehi biʹamrihee wa-litabtag̣oo miñ Faḍlihee wa-laʻallakum tashkuroon.

Allah is the One Who has subjected the sea for you so that ships may sail upon it by His command, and that you may seek His bounty, and that perhaps you will be grateful.

Verse 45:13

وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمْ مَّا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِی الْاَرْضِ جَمِیْعًا مِّنْهُ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یَّتَفَكَّرُوْنَ ۟

Wa-sakhkhara lakum maa fis samaawaati wa-maa fil ʹarḍi jameeʻam minh: ʹinna fee ẓaalika laʹAayaatil liq̣awmiñy yatafakkaroon.

He ˹also˺ subjected for you whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth—all by His grace. Surely in this are signs for people who reflect.

Verse 45:14

قُلْ لِّلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا یَغْفِرُوْا لِلَّذِیْنَ لَا یَرْجُوْنَ اَیَّامَ اللّٰهِ لِیَجْزِیَ قَوْمًا بِمَا كَانُوْا یَكْسِبُوْنَ ۟

Q̣ul lillaẓeena ʹaamanoo yag̣firoo lillaẓeena laa- yarjoona ʹAyyaamal laahi liyajziya Q̣awmam bimaa kaanoo yaksiboon.

˹O Prophet!˺ Tell the believers to forgive those who do not fear Allah’s days ˹of torment˺, so that He will reward each group for what they used to commit.

Verse 45:15

مَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَلِنَفْسِهٖ ۚ وَمَنْ اَسَآءَ فَعَلَیْهَا ؗ ثُمَّ اِلٰی رَبِّكُمْ تُرْجَعُوْنَ ۟

Man ʻamila ṣaaliḥañ falinafsih; wa-man ʹasaaaʹa faʻalayhaa. S̤umma ʹilaa Rabbikum turjaʻoon.

Whoever does good, it is to their own benefit. And whoever does evil, it is to their own loss. Then to your Lord you will ˹all˺ be returned.

Verse 45:16

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ الْكِتٰبَ وَالْحُكْمَ وَالنُّبُوَّةَ وَرَزَقْنٰهُمْ مِّنَ الطَّیِّبٰتِ وَفَضَّلْنٰهُمْ عَلَی الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟ۚ

Wa-laq̣ad ʹaataynaa Baneee ʹIsraaaʹeelal Kitaaba wal-Ḥukma wan-Nubuwwa wa-razaq̣naahum minaṭ Ṭayyibaati wa-faḍḍalnaahum ʻalal ʻaalameen.

Indeed, We gave the Children of Israel the Scripture, wisdom, and prophethood; granted them good, lawful provisions; and favoured them above the others.

Verse 45:17

وَاٰتَیْنٰهُمْ بَیِّنٰتٍ مِّنَ الْاَمْرِ ۚ فَمَا اخْتَلَفُوْۤا اِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ الْعِلْمُ ۙ بَغْیًا بَیْنَهُمْ ؕ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ یَقْضِیْ بَیْنَهُمْ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ فِیْمَا كَانُوْا فِیْهِ یَخْتَلِفُوْنَ ۟

Wa-ʹaataynaahum̃ Bayyinaatim minal ʹamr: famakh talafooo ʹillaa mim baʻdi maa- jaaaʹahumul ʻilmu bag̣yam baynahum. ʹInna Rabbaka yaq̣ḍee baynahum Yawmal Q̣iyaamati feemaa kaanoo feehi yakhtalifoon.

We ˹also˺ gave them clear commandments regarding ˹their˺ faith. But it was not until knowledge came to them that they differed out of mutual envy. Surely your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Judgment regarding their differences.

Verse 45:18

ثُمَّ جَعَلْنٰكَ عَلٰی شَرِیْعَةٍ مِّنَ الْاَمْرِ فَاتَّبِعْهَا وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ اَهْوَآءَ الَّذِیْنَ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ ۟

S̤umma jaʻalnaaka ʻalaa Shareeʻatim minal ʹamri fattabiʻhaa wa-laa tattabiʻ ʹahwaaa ʹallaẓeena laa- yaʻlamoon.

Now We have set you ˹O Prophet˺ on the ˹clear˺ Way of faith. So follow it, and do not follow the desires of those who do not know ˹the truth˺.

Verse 45:19

اِنَّهُمْ لَنْ یُّغْنُوْا عَنْكَ مِنَ اللّٰهِ شَیْـًٔا ؕ وَاِنَّ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ بَعْضُهُمْ اَوْلِیَآءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ وَاللّٰهُ وَلِیُّ الْمُتَّقِیْنَ ۟

ʹInnahum lañy yug̣noo ʹañka minal laahi shayʹaa: wa-ʹinnaz̤̣ z̤̣aalimeena baʻḍuhum ʹawliyaaaʹu baʻḍ: wallaahu Wa-liyyul Muttaq̣een.

They certainly can be of no benefit to you against Allah whatsoever. Surely the wrongdoers are patrons of each other, whereas Allah is the Patron of the righteous.

Verse 45:20

هٰذَا بَصَآىِٕرُ لِلنَّاسِ وَهُدًی وَّرَحْمَةٌ لِّقَوْمٍ یُّوْقِنُوْنَ ۟

Haaẓaa Baṣaaaʹiru linnaasi wa-Hudañw wa-Raḥmatul liq̣awmiñy yooq̣inoon.

This ˹Quran˺ is an insight for humanity—a guide and mercy for people of sure faith.

Verse 45:21

اَمْ حَسِبَ الَّذِیْنَ اجْتَرَحُوا السَّیِّاٰتِ اَنْ نَّجْعَلَهُمْ كَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ ۙ سَوَآءً مَّحْیَاهُمْ وَمَمَاتُهُمْ ؕ سَآءَ مَا یَحْكُمُوْنَ ۟۠

ʹAm ḥasibal laẓeenaj taraḥus sayyiʹaati ʹan najʻalahum kallaẓeena ʹaamanoo wa-ʻamiluṣ ṣaaliḥaati sawaaaʹam maḥyaahum wa-mamaatuhum? Saaaʹa maa- yaḥkumoon.

Or do those who commit evil deeds ˹simply˺ think that We will make them equal—in their life and after their death—to those who believe and do good? How wrong is their judgment!

Verse 45:22

وَخَلَقَ اللّٰهُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ وَلِتُجْزٰی كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لَا یُظْلَمُوْنَ ۟

Wa-khalaq̣al laahus samaawaati wal-ʹarḍa bilḥaq̣q̣i wa-litujzaa kullu nafsim bimaa kasabat wa-hum laa- yuz̤̣lamoon.

For Allah created the heavens and the earth for a purpose, so that every soul may be paid back for what it has committed. And none will be wronged.

Verse 45:23

اَفَرَءَیْتَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ اِلٰهَهٗ هَوٰىهُ وَاَضَلَّهُ اللّٰهُ عَلٰی عِلْمٍ وَّخَتَمَ عَلٰی سَمْعِهٖ وَقَلْبِهٖ وَجَعَلَ عَلٰی بَصَرِهٖ غِشٰوَةً ؕ فَمَنْ یَّهْدِیْهِ مِنْ بَعْدِ اللّٰهِ ؕ اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُوْنَ ۟

ʹAfaraʹayta manit takhaẓa ʹilaahahoo hawaahu wa-ʹaḍal-lahul laahu ʻalaa ʻilmiñw Wakhatama ʻalaa samʻihee wa-q̣albihee wa-jaʻala ʻalaa baṣarihee g̣ishaawah. Famañy yahdeehi mim baʻdil laah? ʹAfalaa taẓakkaroon?

Have you seen ˹O Prophet˺ those who have taken their own desires as their god? ˹And so˺ Allah left them to stray knowingly, sealed their hearing and hearts, and placed a cover on their sight. Who then can guide them after Allah? Will you ˹all˺ not then be mindful?

Verse 45:24

وَقَالُوْا مَا هِیَ اِلَّا حَیَاتُنَا الدُّنْیَا نَمُوْتُ وَنَحْیَا وَمَا یُهْلِكُنَاۤ اِلَّا الدَّهْرُ ۚ وَمَا لَهُمْ بِذٰلِكَ مِنْ عِلْمٍ ۚ اِنْ هُمْ اِلَّا یَظُنُّوْنَ ۟

Wa-q̣aaloo maa- hiya ʹillaa ḥayaatunad dunyaa namootu wa-naḥyaa wa-maa yuhlikunaaa ʹillad Dahr. Wa-maa lahum̃ biẓaalika min ʻilm: ʹin hum ʹillaa yaz̤̣unnoon.

And they argue, “There is nothing beyond our worldly life. We die; others are born. And nothing destroys us but ˹the passage of˺ time.” Yet they have no knowledge ˹in support˺ of this ˹claim˺. They only speculate.

Verse 45:25

وَاِذَا تُتْلٰی عَلَیْهِمْ اٰیٰتُنَا بَیِّنٰتٍ مَّا كَانَ حُجَّتَهُمْ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ قَالُوا ائْتُوْا بِاٰبَآىِٕنَاۤ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ ۟

Wa-ʹiẓaa tutlaa ʻalayhim ʹAayaatunaa Bayyinaatim maa kaana ḥujjatuhum ʹillaaa ʹañ q̣aaluʹ too biʹaabaaaʹinaaa ʹiñ kuñtum ṣaadiq̣een!

And whenever Our clear revelations are recited to them, their only argument is to say: “Bring our forefathers back, if what you say is true!”

Verse 45:26

قُلِ اللّٰهُ یُحْیِیْكُمْ ثُمَّ یُمِیْتُكُمْ ثُمَّ یَجْمَعُكُمْ اِلٰی یَوْمِ الْقِیٰمَةِ لَا رَیْبَ فِیْهِ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ ۟۠

Q̣ulil laahu yaḥyeekum s̤umma yumeetukum s̤umma yajmaʻukum ʹilaa Yawmil Q̣iyaamati laa- rayba feehi wa-laakinna ʹaks̤aran naasi laa- yaʻlamoon.

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “˹It is˺ Allah ˹Who˺ gives you life, then causes you to die, then will gather you ˹all˺ on the Day of Judgment, about which there is no doubt. But most people do not know.”

Verse 45:27

وَلِلّٰهِ مُلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ وَیَوْمَ تَقُوْمُ السَّاعَةُ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ یَّخْسَرُ الْمُبْطِلُوْنَ ۟

Wa-lillaahi Mulkus samaawaati wal-ʹarḍ. Wa-Yawma taq̣oomus Saaʻatu Yawmaʹiẓiñy yakhsarul mubṭiloon!

To Allah ˹alone˺ belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. On the Day the Hour will be established, the people of falsehood will then be in ˹total˺ loss.

Verse 45:28

وَتَرٰی كُلَّ اُمَّةٍ جَاثِیَةً ۫ كُلُّ اُمَّةٍ تُدْعٰۤی اِلٰی كِتٰبِهَا ؕ اَلْیَوْمَ تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟

Wa-taraa kulla ʹummatiñ JAAS̤IYAH: Kullu ʹummatiñ tudʻaaa ʹilaa Kitaabihaa; ʹal-Yawma tujzawna maa- kuñtum taʻmaloon!

And you will see every faith-community on its knees. Every community will be summoned to its record ˹of deeds˺. ˹They all will be told,˺ “This Day you will be rewarded for what you used to do.

Verse 45:29

هٰذَا كِتٰبُنَا یَنْطِقُ عَلَیْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ ؕ اِنَّا كُنَّا نَسْتَنْسِخُ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟

Haaẓaa Kitaabunaa yañṭiq̣u ʻalaykum̃ bilḥaq̣q̣; ʹinnaa kunnaa nastañsikhu maa- kuñtum taʻmaloon.

This record of Ours speaks the truth about you. Indeed, We always had your deeds recorded ˹by the angels˺.”

Verse 45:30

فَاَمَّا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ فَیُدْخِلُهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ فِیْ رَحْمَتِهٖ ؕ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْمُبِیْنُ ۟

Faʹammal laẓeena ʹaamanoo wa-ʻamiluṣ ṣaaliḥaati fayudkhiluhum Rabbuhum fee Raḥmatih. Ẓaalika huwal Fawzul mubeen.

As for those who believed and did good, their Lord will admit them into His mercy. That is ˹truly˺ the absolute triumph.

Verse 45:31

وَاَمَّا الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا ۫ اَفَلَمْ تَكُنْ اٰیٰتِیْ تُتْلٰی عَلَیْكُمْ فَاسْتَكْبَرْتُمْ وَكُنْتُمْ قَوْمًا مُّجْرِمِیْنَ ۟

Wa-ʹammal laẓeena kafaroo: ʹafalam takun ʹAayaatee tutlaa ʻalaykum fastakbartum wa-kuñtum q̣awmam mujrimeen?

And as for those who disbelieved, ˹they will be told,˺ “Were My revelations not recited to you, yet you acted arrogantly and were a wicked people?

Verse 45:32

وَاِذَا قِیْلَ اِنَّ وَعْدَ اللّٰهِ حَقٌّ وَّالسَّاعَةُ لَا رَیْبَ فِیْهَا قُلْتُمْ مَّا نَدْرِیْ مَا السَّاعَةُ ۙ اِنْ نَّظُنُّ اِلَّا ظَنًّا وَّمَا نَحْنُ بِمُسْتَیْقِنِیْنَ ۟

Wa-ʹiẓaa q̣eela ʹinna waʻdallaahi ḥaq̣q̣uñw was Saaʻatu laa- rayba feehaa q̣ultum maa nadree mas Saaʻatu ʹin naz̤̣unnu ʹillaa z̤̣annañw wamaa naḥnu bimustayq̣ineen.

And whenever it was said ˹to you˺, ‘Surely Allah’s promise ˹of judgment˺ is true and there is no doubt about the Hour,’ you said ˹mockingly˺, ‘We do not know what the Hour is! We think it is no more than speculation, and we are not convinced ˹that it will ever come˺.’”

Verse 45:33

وَبَدَا لَهُمْ سَیِّاٰتُ مَا عَمِلُوْا وَحَاقَ بِهِمْ مَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ یَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ ۟

Wa-badaa lahum sayyiʹaatu maa- ʻamiloo wa-ḥaaq̣a bihim maa kaanoo bihee yastahziʹoon!

And the evil ˹consequences˺ of their deeds will unfold before them, and they will be overwhelmed by what they used to ridicule.

Verse 45:34

وَقِیْلَ الْیَوْمَ نَنْسٰىكُمْ كَمَا نَسِیْتُمْ لِقَآءَ یَوْمِكُمْ هٰذَا وَمَاْوٰىكُمُ النَّارُ وَمَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ نّٰصِرِیْنَ ۟

Wa-q̣eelal Yawma nañsaakum kamaa naseetum Liq̣aaaʹa Yawmikum haaẓaa wa-maʹwaakumun Naaru wa-maa lakum min naaṣireen!

It will be said, “This Day We will neglect you as you neglected the meeting of this Day of yours! Your home will be the Fire, and you will have no helpers.

Verse 45:35

ذٰلِكُمْ بِاَنَّكُمُ اتَّخَذْتُمْ اٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ هُزُوًا وَّغَرَّتْكُمُ الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَا ۚ فَالْیَوْمَ لَا یُخْرَجُوْنَ مِنْهَا وَلَا هُمْ یُسْتَعْتَبُوْنَ ۟

Ẓaalikum̃ biʹannakumut takhaẓtum ʹAayaatil laahi huzuwañw wag̣arratkumul ḥayaatud dunyaa: fal-Yawma laa- yukhrajoona minhaa wa-laa hum yustaʻtaboon.

This is because you made a mockery of Allah’s revelations, and were deluded by ˹your˺ worldly life.” So ˹from˺ that Day ˹on˺ they will not be taken out of the Fire, nor will they be allowed to appease ˹their Lord˺.

Verse 45:36

فَلِلّٰهِ الْحَمْدُ رَبِّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَرَبِّ الْاَرْضِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟

Falillaahil Ḥamdu Rabbis samaawaati wa-Rabbil ʹarḍi Rabbil ʻAalameen!

So all praise is for Allah—Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earth, Lord of all worlds.

Verse 45:37

وَلَهُ الْكِبْرِیَآءُ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ۪ وَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ ۟۠

Wa-lahul Kibriyaaaʹu fis samaawaati wal-ʹarḍ: wa-Huwal ʻAzeezul Ḥakeem!

To Him belongs ˹all˺ Majesty in the heavens and the earth. And He is the Almighty, All-Wise.
