Al-Jumu'ah

يُسَبِّحُ لِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلْقُدُّوسِ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْحَكِيمِ

Yusabbiḥu lillaahi maa- fis samaawaati wa-maa fil ʹarḍil Malikil Q̣uddoosil ʻAzeezil Ḥakeem.

Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth is exalting Allāh, the Sovereign, the Pure, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

هُوَ ٱلَّذِى بَعَثَ فِى ٱلْأُمِّيِّـۧنَ رَسُولًا مِّنْهُمْ يَتْلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَايَـٰتِهِۦ وَيُزَكِّيهِمْ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ وَٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَإِن كَانُوا۟ مِن قَبْلُ لَفِى ضَلَـٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ

Huwal laẓee baʻas̤a fil ʹUmmiyyeena Rasoolam min-hum yatloo ʻalayhim ʹAayaatihee wa-yuzakkeehim wa-yuʻallimuhumul Kitaaba wal-Ḥikmah,― wa-ʹiñ kaanoo miñ q̣ablu lafee ḍalaalim mubeen;―

It is He who has sent among the unlettered [Arabs] a Messenger from themselves reciting to them His verses and purifying them and teaching them the Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] and wisdom [i.e., the sunnah] - although they were before in clear error -

وَءَاخَرِينَ مِنْهُمْ لَمَّا يَلْحَقُوا۟ بِهِمْ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ

Wa-ʹaakhareena minhum lammaa yalḥaq̣oo bihim: wa-Huwal ʻAzeezul Ḥakeem.

And [to] others of them who have not yet joined them. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

ذَٰلِكَ فَضْلُ ٱللَّهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ ذُو ٱلْفَضْلِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ

Ẓaalika Faḍlul laahi yuʹteehi mañy yashaaaʹ: wallaahu Ẓul Faḍlil ʻaz̤̣eem.

That is the bounty of Allāh, which He gives to whom He wills, and Allāh is the possessor of great bounty.

مَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ حُمِّلُوا۟ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَحْمِلُوهَا كَمَثَلِ ٱلْحِمَارِ يَحْمِلُ أَسْفَارًۢا ۚ بِئْسَ مَثَلُ ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

Mas̤alul laẓeena ḥum-milut Tawraata s̤umma lam yaḥmiloohaa kamas̤alil ḥimaari yaḥ-milu ʹasfaaraa. Biʹsa mas̤alul q̣awmil laẓeena kaẓẓaboo biʹAayaatil laah. Wallaahu laa- yahdil q̣awmaz̤̣ z̤̣aalimeen.

The example of those who were entrusted with the Torah and then did not take it on is like that of a donkey who carries volumes [of books]. Wretched is the example of the people who deny the signs of Allāh. And Allāh does not guide the wrongdoing people.

قُلْ يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ هَادُوٓا۟ إِن زَعَمْتُمْ أَنَّكُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ لِلَّهِ مِن دُونِ ٱلنَّاسِ فَتَمَنَّوُا۟ ٱلْمَوْتَ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ

Q̣ul yaaaʹayyuhal laẓeena haadooo ʹiñ zaʻamtum ʹannakum ʹawliyaaaʹu lillaahi miñ doonin naasi fatamannawul Mawta ʹiñ kuñtum ṣaadiq̣een!

Say, "O you who are Jews, if you claim that you are allies of Allāh, excluding the [other] people, then wish for death, if you should be truthful."

وَلَا يَتَمَنَّوْنَهُۥٓ أَبَدًۢا بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌۢ بِٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

Wa-laa yatamannawnahooo ʹabadam bimaa q̣addamat ʹaydeehim! Wallaahu ʻAleemum biz̤̣z̤̣aalimeen!

But they will not wish for it, ever, because of what their hands have put forth. And Allāh is Knowing of the wrongdoers.

قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْمَوْتَ ٱلَّذِى تَفِرُّونَ مِنْهُ فَإِنَّهُۥ مُلَـٰقِيكُمْ ۖ ثُمَّ تُرَدُّونَ إِلَىٰ عَـٰلِمِ ٱلْغَيْبِ وَٱلشَّهَـٰدَةِ فَيُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

Q̣ul ʹinnal Mawtal laẓee tafirroona minhu faʹinnahoo mulaaq̣eekum summa turaddoona ʹilaa ʻAalimil g̣aybi washshahaadati fayunabbiʹukum̃ bimaa kuntum taʻmaloon!

Say, "Indeed, the death from which you flee - indeed, it will meet you. Then you will be returned to the Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, and He will inform you about what you used to do."

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِذَا نُودِىَ لِلصَّلَوٰةِ مِن يَوْمِ ٱلْجُمُعَةِ فَٱسْعَوْا۟ إِلَىٰ ذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ وَذَرُوا۟ ٱلْبَيْعَ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ

Yaaaʹayyuhal lazeena ʹaamanooo ʹiẓaa noodiya liṣ-Ṣalaati miñy Yawmil JUMUʻATI fasʻaw ʹilaa Ẓikril laahi wa-ẓarul bayʻ: ẓaalikum khayrul lakum ʹiñ kuñtum taʻlamoon!

O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allāh and leave trade. That is better for you, if you only knew.

فَإِذَا قُضِيَتِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةُ فَٱنتَشِرُوا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱبْتَغُوا۟ مِن فَضْلِ ٱللَّهِ وَٱذْكُرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ

Faʹiẓaa q̣uḍiyatiṣ Ṣalaatu fañtashiroo fil ʹarḍi wabtag̣oo miñ Faḍlil laahi waẓkurul laaha kas̤eeral laʻallakum tufliḥoon.

And when the prayer has been concluded, disperse within the land and seek from the bounty of Allāh, and remember Allāh often that you may succeed.

وَإِذَا رَأَوْا۟ تِجَـٰرَةً أَوْ لَهْوًا ٱنفَضُّوٓا۟ إِلَيْهَا وَتَرَكُوكَ قَآئِمًا ۚ قُلْ مَا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِّنَ ٱللَّهْوِ وَمِنَ ٱلتِّجَـٰرَةِ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ

Wa-ʹiẓaa raʹaw tijaaratan ʹaw lahwaniñ faḍḍooo ʹilayhaa wa-tarakooka q̣aaaʹimaa: Q̣ul maa- ʻiñdal laahi khayrum minal lahwi wa-minat tijaarah! wallaahu Khayrur Raaziq̣een.

But [on one occasion] when they saw a transaction or a diversion, [O Muḥammad], they rushed to it and left you standing. Say, "What is with Allāh is better than diversion and than a transaction, and Allāh is the best of providers."
