تَنزِيلُ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْحَكِيمِ

Tañzeelul Kitaabi minal laahil ʻAzeezil Ḥakeem.

The revelation of the Book is from Allāh, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

إِنَّ فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

ʹInna fis samaawaati wal-ʹarḍi laʹAayaatil lil-Muʹmineen.

Indeed, within the heavens and earth are signs for the believers.

وَفِى خَلْقِكُمْ وَمَا يَبُثُّ مِن دَآبَّةٍ ءَايَـٰتٌ لِّقَوْمٍ يُوقِنُونَ

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

And in the creation of yourselves and what He disperses of moving creatures are signs for people who are certain [in faith].

وَٱخْتِلَـٰفِ ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ وَمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مِن رِّزْقٍ فَأَحْيَا بِهِ ٱلْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا وَتَصْرِيفِ ٱلرِّيَـٰحِ ءَايَـٰتٌ لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ

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 night and day and [in] what Allāh sends down from the sky of provision [i.e., rain] and gives life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and [in His] directing of the winds are signs for a people who reason.

تِلْكَ ءَايَـٰتُ ٱللَّهِ نَتْلُوهَا عَلَيْكَ بِٱلْحَقِّ ۖ فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ وَءَايَـٰتِهِۦ يُؤْمِنُونَ

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

These are the verses of Allāh which We recite to you in truth. Then in what statement after Allāh and His verses will they believe?

وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٍ

Waylul likulli ʹaffaakin ʹas̤eem:

Woe to every sinful liar

يَسْمَعُ ءَايَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ يُصِرُّ مُسْتَكْبِرًا كَأَن لَّمْ يَسْمَعْهَا ۖ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

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

Who hears the verses of Allāh recited to him, then persists arrogantly as if he had not heard them. So give him tidings of a painful punishment.

وَإِذَا عَلِمَ مِنْ ءَايَـٰتِنَا شَيْـًٔا ٱتَّخَذَهَا هُزُوًا ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ

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

And when he knows anything of Our verses, he takes them in ridicule. Those will have a humiliating punishment.

مِّن وَرَآئِهِمْ جَهَنَّمُ ۖ وَلَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُم مَّا كَسَبُوا۟ شَيْـًٔا وَلَا مَا ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَوْلِيَآءَ ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ

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

Before them is Hell, and what they had earned will not avail them at all nor what they had taken besides Allāh as allies. And they will have a great punishment.

هَـٰذَا هُدًى ۖ وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَـٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مِّن رِّجْزٍ أَلِيمٌ

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

This [Qur’ān] is guidance. And those who have disbelieved in the verses of their Lord will have a painful punishment of foul nature.

۞ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى سَخَّرَ لَكُمُ ٱلْبَحْرَ لِتَجْرِىَ ٱلْفُلْكُ فِيهِ بِأَمْرِهِۦ وَلِتَبْتَغُوا۟ مِن فَضْلِهِۦ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

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

It is Allāh who subjected to you the sea so that ships may sail upon it by His command and that you may seek of His bounty; and perhaps you will be grateful.

وَسَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا مِّنْهُ ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

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

And He has subjected to you whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth - all from Him. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.

قُل لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَغْفِرُوا۟ لِلَّذِينَ لَا يَرْجُونَ أَيَّامَ ٱللَّهِ لِيَجْزِىَ قَوْمًۢا بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ

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

Say, [O Muḥammad], to those who have believed that they [should] forgive those who expect not the days of Allāh [i.e., of His retribution] so that He may recompense a people for what they used to earn.

مَنْ عَمِلَ صَـٰلِحًا فَلِنَفْسِهِۦ ۖ وَمَنْ أَسَآءَ فَعَلَيْهَا ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمْ تُرْجَعُونَ

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

Whoever does a good deed - it is for himself; and whoever does evil - it is against it [i.e., the self or soul]. Then to your Lord you will be returned.

وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ وَٱلْحُكْمَ وَٱلنُّبُوَّةَ وَرَزَقْنَـٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلطَّيِّبَـٰتِ وَفَضَّلْنَـٰهُمْ عَلَى ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

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

And We did certainly give the Children of Israel the Scripture and judgement and prophethood, and We provided them with good things and preferred them over the worlds.

وَءَاتَيْنَـٰهُم بَيِّنَـٰتٍ مِّنَ ٱلْأَمْرِ ۖ فَمَا ٱخْتَلَفُوٓا۟ إِلَّا مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ ٱلْعِلْمُ بَغْيًۢا بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَقْضِى بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ فِيمَا كَانُوا۟ فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ

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.

And We gave them clear proofs of the matter [of religion]. And they did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. Indeed, your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that over which they used to differ.

ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَـٰكَ عَلَىٰ شَرِيعَةٍ مِّنَ ٱلْأَمْرِ فَٱتَّبِعْهَا وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَآءَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

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

Then We put you, [O Muḥammad], on an ordained way concerning the matter [of religion]; so follow it and do not follow the inclinations of those who do not know.

إِنَّهُمْ لَن يُغْنُوا۟ عَنكَ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيْـًٔا ۚ وَإِنَّ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ بَعْضٍ ۖ وَٱللَّهُ وَلِىُّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ

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

Indeed, they will never avail you against Allāh at all. And indeed, the wrongdoers are allies of one another; but Allāh is the protector of the righteous.

هَـٰذَا بَصَـٰٓئِرُ لِلنَّاسِ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةٌ لِّقَوْمٍ يُوقِنُونَ

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

This [Qur’ān] is enlightenment for mankind and guidance and mercy for a people who are certain [in faith].

أَمْ حَسِبَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱجْتَرَحُوا۟ ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتِ أَن نَّجْعَلَهُمْ كَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ سَوَآءً مَّحْيَاهُمْ وَمَمَاتُهُمْ ۚ سَآءَ مَا يَحْكُمُونَ

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

Or do those who commit evils think We will make them like those who have believed and done righteous deeds - [make them] equal in their life and their death? Evil is that which they judge [i.e., assume].

وَخَلَقَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلِتُجْزَىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍۭ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ

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

And Allāh created the heavens and earth in truth and so that every soul may be recompensed for what it has earned, and they will not be wronged.

أَفَرَءَيْتَ مَنِ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَـٰهَهُۥ هَوَىٰهُ وَأَضَلَّهُ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ عِلْمٍ وَخَتَمَ عَلَىٰ سَمْعِهِۦ وَقَلْبِهِۦ وَجَعَلَ عَلَىٰ بَصَرِهِۦ غِشَـٰوَةً فَمَن يَهْدِيهِ مِنۢ بَعْدِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ

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 he who has taken as his god his [own] desire, and Allāh has sent him astray due to knowledge and has set a seal upon his hearing and his heart and put over his vision a veil? So who will guide him after Allāh? Then will you not be reminded?

وَقَالُوا۟ مَا هِىَ إِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا ٱلدُّنْيَا نَمُوتُ وَنَحْيَا وَمَا يُهْلِكُنَآ إِلَّا ٱلدَّهْرُ ۚ وَمَا لَهُم بِذَٰلِكَ مِنْ عِلْمٍ ۖ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا يَظُنُّونَ

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 say, "There is not but our worldly life; we die and live, and nothing destroys us except time." And they have of that no knowledge; they are only assuming.

وَإِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَايَـٰتُنَا بَيِّنَـٰتٍ مَّا كَانَ حُجَّتَهُمْ إِلَّآ أَن قَالُوا۟ ٱئْتُوا۟ بِـَٔابَآئِنَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ

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

And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, their argument is only that they say, "Bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful."

قُلِ ٱللَّهُ يُحْيِيكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يَجْمَعُكُمْ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهِ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

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

Say, "Allāh causes you to live, then causes you to die; then He will assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt, but most of the people do not know."

وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ وَيَوْمَ تَقُومُ ٱلسَّاعَةُ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَخْسَرُ ٱلْمُبْطِلُونَ

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

And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And the Day the Hour appears - that Day the falsifiers will lose.

وَتَرَىٰ كُلَّ أُمَّةٍ جَاثِيَةً ۚ كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ تُدْعَىٰٓ إِلَىٰ كِتَـٰبِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

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

And you will see every nation kneeling [from fear]. Every nation will be called to its record [and told], "Today you will be recompensed for what you used to do.

هَـٰذَا كِتَـٰبُنَا يَنطِقُ عَلَيْكُم بِٱلْحَقِّ ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَسْتَنسِخُ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

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

This, Our record, speaks about you in truth. Indeed, We were having transcribed whatever you used to do."

فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ فَيُدْخِلُهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ فِى رَحْمَتِهِۦ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْمُبِينُ

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

So as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, their Lord will admit them into His mercy. That is what is the clear attainment.

وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ أَفَلَمْ تَكُنْ ءَايَـٰتِى تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ فَٱسْتَكْبَرْتُمْ وَكُنتُمْ قَوْمًا مُّجْرِمِينَ

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

But as for those who disbelieved, [it will be said], "Were not Our verses recited to you, but you were arrogant and became a criminal people?

وَإِذَا قِيلَ إِنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَٱلسَّاعَةُ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهَا قُلْتُم مَّا نَدْرِى مَا ٱلسَّاعَةُ إِن نَّظُنُّ إِلَّا ظَنًّا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُسْتَيْقِنِينَ

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

And when it was said, 'Indeed, the promise of Allāh is truth and the Hour [is coming] - no doubt about it,' you said, 'We know not what is the Hour. We assume only assumption, and we are not convinced.'"

وَبَدَا لَهُمْ سَيِّـَٔاتُ مَا عَمِلُوا۟ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ

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

And the evil consequences of what they did will appear to them, and they will be enveloped by what they used to ridicule.

وَقِيلَ ٱلْيَوْمَ نَنسَىٰكُمْ كَمَا نَسِيتُمْ لِقَآءَ يَوْمِكُمْ هَـٰذَا وَمَأْوَىٰكُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن نَّـٰصِرِينَ

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

And it will be said, "Today We will forget you as you forgot the meeting of this Day of yours, and your refuge is the Fire, and for you there are no helpers.

ذَٰلِكُم بِأَنَّكُمُ ٱتَّخَذْتُمْ ءَايَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ هُزُوًا وَغَرَّتْكُمُ ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنْيَا ۚ فَٱلْيَوْمَ لَا يُخْرَجُونَ مِنْهَا وَلَا هُمْ يُسْتَعْتَبُونَ

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

That is because you took the verses of Allāh in ridicule, and worldly life deluded you." So that Day they will not be removed from it, nor will they be asked to appease [Allāh].

فَلِلَّهِ ٱلْحَمْدُ رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَرَبِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

Falillaahil Ḥamdu Rabbis samaawaati wa-Rabbil ʹarḍi Rabbil ʻAalameen!

Then, to Allāh belongs [all] praise - Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earth, Lord of the worlds.

وَلَهُ ٱلْكِبْرِيَآءُ فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ

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

And to Him belongs [all] grandeur within the heavens and the earth, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
