Verse 41:5

وَقَالُوْا قُلُوْبُنَا فِیْۤ اَكِنَّةٍ مِّمَّا تَدْعُوْنَاۤ اِلَیْهِ وَفِیْۤ اٰذَانِنَا وَقْرٌ وَّمِنْ بَیْنِنَا وَبَیْنِكَ حِجَابٌ فَاعْمَلْ اِنَّنَا عٰمِلُوْنَ ۟

They say, “Our hearts are veiled against what you are calling us to, there is deafness in our ears, and there is a barrier between us and you. So do ˹whatever you want˺ and so shall we!”

Verse 41:6

قُلْ اِنَّمَاۤ اَنَا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ یُوْحٰۤی اِلَیَّ اَنَّمَاۤ اِلٰهُكُمْ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌ فَاسْتَقِیْمُوْۤا اِلَیْهِ وَاسْتَغْفِرُوْهُ ؕ وَوَیْلٌ لِّلْمُشْرِكِیْنَ ۟ۙ

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I am only a man like you, ˹but˺ it has been revealed to me that your God is only One God. So take the Straight Way towards Him, and seek His forgiveness. And woe to the polytheists—

Verse 41:7

ʹAllaẓeena laa- yuʹtoonaz Zakaata wa-hum̃ bil-ʹAakhirati hum kaafiroon.

those who do not pay alms-tax and are in denial of the Hereafter.

Verse 41:8

Verse 41:9

قُلْ اَىِٕنَّكُمْ لَتَكْفُرُوْنَ بِالَّذِیْ خَلَقَ الْاَرْضَ فِیْ یَوْمَیْنِ وَتَجْعَلُوْنَ لَهٗۤ اَنْدَادًا ؕ ذٰلِكَ رَبُّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟ۚ

Q̣ul ʹaʹinnakum latakfuroona billaẓee khalaq̣al ʹarḍa fee Yawmayni wa-tajʻaloona lahooo ʹañdaadaa? Ẓaalika Rabbul ʻAalameen.

Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “How can you disbelieve in the One Who created the earth in two Days? And how can you set up equals with Him? That is the Lord of all worlds.

Verse 41:10

وَجَعَلَ فِیْهَا رَوَاسِیَ مِنْ فَوْقِهَا وَبٰرَكَ فِیْهَا وَقَدَّرَ فِیْهَاۤ اَقْوَاتَهَا فِیْۤ اَرْبَعَةِ اَیَّامٍ ؕ سَوَآءً لِّلسَّآىِٕلِیْنَ ۟

Wa-jaʻala feehaa rawaasiya miñ fawq̣ihaa wa-baaraka feehaa wa-q̣addara feehaaa ʹaq̣waatahaa feee arbaʻati ʹAyyaam; sawaaaʹal lissaaaʹileen.

He placed on the earth firm mountains, standing high, showered His blessings upon it, and ordained ˹all˺ its means of sustenance—totaling four Days exactly—for all who ask.

Verse 41:11

ثُمَّ اسْتَوٰۤی اِلَی السَّمَآءِ وَهِیَ دُخَانٌ فَقَالَ لَهَا وَلِلْاَرْضِ ائْتِیَا طَوْعًا اَوْ كَرْهًا ؕ قَالَتَاۤ اَتَیْنَا طَآىِٕعِیْنَ ۟

Then He turned towards the heaven when it was ˹still like˺ smoke, saying to it and to the earth, ‘Submit, willingly or unwillingly.’ They both responded, ‘We submit willingly.’

Verse 41:12

فَقَضٰىهُنَّ سَبْعَ سَمٰوَاتٍ فِیْ یَوْمَیْنِ وَاَوْحٰی فِیْ كُلِّ سَمَآءٍ اَمْرَهَا ؕ وَزَیَّنَّا السَّمَآءَ الدُّنْیَا بِمَصَابِیْحَ ۖۗ وَحِفْظًا ؕ ذٰلِكَ تَقْدِیْرُ الْعَزِیْزِ الْعَلِیْمِ ۟

Faq̣aḍaahunna sabʻa samaawaatiñ fee Yawmayni wa-ʹawḥaa fee kulli samaaaʹin ʹamrahaa. Wa-zayyannassa maaaʹad dunyaa bimaṣaabeeḥa wa-ḥifz̤̣aa. Ẓaalika Taq̣deerul ʻAzeezil ʻAleem.

So He formed the heaven into seven heavens in two Days, assigning to each its mandate. And We adorned the lowest heaven with ˹stars like˺ lamps ˹for beauty˺ and for protection. That is the design of the Almighty, All-Knowing.”

Verse 41:13

فَاِنْ اَعْرَضُوْا فَقُلْ اَنْذَرْتُكُمْ صٰعِقَةً مِّثْلَ صٰعِقَةِ عَادٍ وَّثَمُوْدَ ۟ؕ

Faʹin ʹaʻraḍoo faq̣ul ʹañẓartukum Ṣaaʻiq̣atam mis̤la Ṣaaʻiq̣ati ʻAadiñw Wa-S̤amood!

If they turn away, then say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I warn you of a ˹mighty˺ blast, like the one that befell ’Ȃd and Thamûd.”

Verse 41:14

اِذْ جَآءَتْهُمُ الرُّسُلُ مِنْ بَیْنِ اَیْدِیْهِمْ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ اَلَّا تَعْبُدُوْۤا اِلَّا اللّٰهَ ؕ قَالُوْا لَوْ شَآءَ رَبُّنَا لَاَنْزَلَ مَلٰٓىِٕكَةً فَاِنَّا بِمَاۤ اُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهٖ كٰفِرُوْنَ ۟

The messengers had come to them from all angles, ˹proclaiming,˺ “Worship none but Allah.” They responded, “Had our Lord willed, He could have easily sent down angels ˹instead˺. So we totally reject what you have been sent with.”

Verse 41:15

فَاَمَّا عَادٌ فَاسْتَكْبَرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ بِغَیْرِ الْحَقِّ وَقَالُوْا مَنْ اَشَدُّ مِنَّا قُوَّةً ؕ اَوَلَمْ یَرَوْا اَنَّ اللّٰهَ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَهُمْ هُوَ اَشَدُّ مِنْهُمْ قُوَّةً ؕ وَكَانُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا یَجْحَدُوْنَ ۟

Faʹammaa ʻAaduñ fastakbaroo fil ʹarḍi big̣ayril ḥaq̣q̣i wa-q̣aaloo man ʹashaddu minnaa q̣uwwah? ʹAwalam yaraw ʹannal laahal laẓee khalaq̣ahum Huwa ʹashaddu minhum q̣uwwah? Wa-kaanoo biʹAayaatinaa yajḥadoon!

As for ’Ȃd, they acted arrogantly throughout the land with no right, boasting, “Who is superior to us in might?” Did they not see that Allah ˹Himself˺, Who created them, was far superior to them in might? Still they persisted in denying Our signs.

Verse 41:16

فَاَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ رِیْحًا صَرْصَرًا فِیْۤ اَیَّامٍ نَّحِسَاتٍ لِّنُذِیْقَهُمْ عَذَابَ الْخِزْیِ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا ؕ وَلَعَذَابُ الْاٰخِرَةِ اَخْزٰی وَهُمْ لَا یُنْصَرُوْنَ ۟

Faʹarsalnaa ʻalayhim Reeḥañ ṣarṣarañ feee ʹAyyaamin naḥisaatil linuẓeeq̣ahum ʻaẓaabal khizyi fil ḥayaatid dunyaa; wa-laʻAẓaabul ʹAakhirati ʹakhzaa Wahum laa- yuñṣaroon.

So We sent against them a furious wind, for ˹several˺ miserable days, to make them taste a humiliating punishment in this worldly life. But far more humiliating will be the punishment of the Hereafter. And they will not be helped.

Verse 41:17

وَاَمَّا ثَمُوْدُ فَهَدَیْنٰهُمْ فَاسْتَحَبُّوا الْعَمٰی عَلَی الْهُدٰی فَاَخَذَتْهُمْ صٰعِقَةُ الْعَذَابِ الْهُوْنِ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَكْسِبُوْنَ ۟ۚ

Wa-ʹammaa S̤amoodu fahadaynaahum fastaḥabbul ʻamaa ʻalal Hudaa faʹakhaẓathum Ṣaaʻiq̣atul ʻaẓaabil hooni bimaa kaanoo yaksiboon.

As for Thamûd, We showed them guidance, but they preferred blindness over guidance. So the blast of a disgracing punishment overtook them for what they used to commit.

Verse 41:18

وَنَجَّیْنَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَكَانُوْا یَتَّقُوْنَ ۟۠

Wa-najjaynal laẓeena ʹaamanoo wa-kaanoo yattaq̣oon.

And We delivered those who were faithful and were mindful ˹of Allah˺.

Verse 41:19

وَیَوْمَ یُحْشَرُ اَعْدَآءُ اللّٰهِ اِلَی النَّارِ فَهُمْ یُوْزَعُوْنَ ۟

Wa-Yawma yuḥsharu ʹaʻdaaaʹul laahi ʹilan Naari fahum yoozaʻoon.

˹Consider˺ the Day ˹when˺ the enemies of Allah will be gathered for the Fire, all driven in ranks.

Verse 41:20

حَتّٰۤی اِذَا مَا جَآءُوْهَا شَهِدَ عَلَیْهِمْ سَمْعُهُمْ وَاَبْصَارُهُمْ وَجُلُوْدُهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟

Ḥattaaa ʹiẓaa maa- jaaaʹoohaa shahida ʻalayhim samʻuhum wa-ʹabṣaaruhum wa-julooduhum̃ bimaa kaanoo yaʻmaloon.

When they reach it, their ears, eyes, and skin will testify against what they used to do.

Verse 41:21

وَقَالُوْا لِجُلُوْدِهِمْ لِمَ شَهِدْتُّمْ عَلَیْنَا ؕ قَالُوْۤا اَنْطَقَنَا اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْۤ اَنْطَقَ كُلَّ شَیْءٍ وَّهُوَ خَلَقَكُمْ اَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَّاِلَیْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَ ۟

Wa-q̣aaloo lijuloodihim lima shahittum ʻalaynaa? Q̣aalooo ʹañṭaq̣anal laahul laẓeee ʹañṭaq̣a kulla shayʹiñw wa-Huwa khalaq̣akum ʹawwala marratiñw waʹilayhi turjaʻoon.

They will ask their skin ˹furiously˺, “Why have you testified against us?” It will say, “We have been made to speak by Allah, Who causes all things to speak. He ˹is the One Who˺ created you the first time, and to Him you were bound to return.

Verse 41:22

وَمَا كُنْتُمْ تَسْتَتِرُوْنَ اَنْ یَّشْهَدَ عَلَیْكُمْ سَمْعُكُمْ وَلَاۤ اَبْصَارُكُمْ وَلَا جُلُوْدُكُمْ وَلٰكِنْ ظَنَنْتُمْ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یَعْلَمُ كَثِیْرًا مِّمَّا تَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟

Wa-maa kuñtum tastatiroona ʹañy yashhada ʻalaykum samʻukum wa-laaa ʹabṣaarukum wa-laa juloodukum wa-laakiñ z̤̣anañtum ʹannal laaha laa- yaʻlamu kas̤eeram mimmaa taʻmaloon!

You did not ˹bother to˺ hide yourselves from your ears, eyes, and skin to prevent them from testifying against you. Rather, you assumed that Allah did not know much of what you used to do.

Verse 41:23

وَذٰلِكُمْ ظَنُّكُمُ الَّذِیْ ظَنَنْتُمْ بِرَبِّكُمْ اَرْدٰىكُمْ فَاَصْبَحْتُمْ مِّنَ الْخٰسِرِیْنَ ۟

Wa-ẓaalikum z̤̣annukumul laẓee z̤̣anañtum̃ bi-Rabbikum ʹardaakum faʹaṣbaḥtum minal khaasireen.

It was that ˹false˺ assumption you entertained about your Lord that has brought about your doom, so you have become losers.”

Verse 41:24

فَاِنْ یَّصْبِرُوْا فَالنَّارُ مَثْوًی لَّهُمْ ۚ وَاِنْ یَّسْتَعْتِبُوْا فَمَا هُمْ مِّنَ الْمُعْتَبِیْنَ ۟

Faʹiñy yaṣbiroo fan-naaru mas̤wal lahum! Wa-ʹiñy yastaʻtiboo famaa hum minal muʻtabeen.

Even if they endure patiently, the Fire will ˹always˺ be their home. And if they ˹beg to˺ appease ˹their Lord˺, they will never be allowed to.

Verse 41:25

وَقَیَّضْنَا لَهُمْ قُرَنَآءَ فَزَیَّنُوْا لَهُمْ مَّا بَیْنَ اَیْدِیْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَحَقَّ عَلَیْهِمُ الْقَوْلُ فِیْۤ اُمَمٍ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ مِّنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْاِنْسِ ۚ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا خٰسِرِیْنَ ۟۠

Wa-q̣ayyaḍnaa lahum q̣uranaaaʹa fazayyanoo lahum maa bayna ʹaydeehim wa-maa khalfahum wa-ḥaq̣q̣a ʻalayhimul q̣awlu feee ʹumamiñ q̣ad khalat miñ q̣ablihim minal Jinni wal-ʹIñs; ʹinnahum kaanoo khaasireen.

We placed at their disposal ˹evil˺ associates who made their past and future ˹misdeeds˺ appealing to them. ˹So˺ the fate of earlier communities of jinn and humans has been justified against them ˹as well˺, ˹for˺ they were truly losers.

Verse 41:26

وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَا تَسْمَعُوْا لِهٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنِ وَالْغَوْا فِیْهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَغْلِبُوْنَ ۟

Wa-q̣aalal laẓeena kafaroo laa- tasmaʻoo lihaaẓal Q̣urʹaani walg̣aw feehi laʻallakum tag̣liboon!

The disbelievers advised ˹one another˺, “Do not listen to this Quran but drown it out so that you may prevail.”

Verse 41:27

فَلَنُذِیْقَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا عَذَابًا شَدِیْدًا ۙ وَّلَنَجْزِیَنَّهُمْ اَسْوَاَ الَّذِیْ كَانُوْا یَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟

Falanuẓeeq̣annal laẓeena kafaroo ʻaẓaabañ shadeedañw walanajziyannahum ʹaswaʹal laẓee kaanoo yaʻmaloon.

So We will certainly make the disbelievers taste a severe punishment, and We will surely repay them according to the worst of their deeds.

Verse 41:28

ذٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ اَعْدَآءِ اللّٰهِ النَّارُ ۚ لَهُمْ فِیْهَا دَارُ الْخُلْدِ ؕ جَزَآءً بِمَا كَانُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا یَجْحَدُوْنَ ۟

Ẓaalika jazaaaʹu ʹaʻdaaaʹil laahin Naar: lahum feehaa Daarul Khuld: jazaaaʹam bimaa kaanoo biʹAayaatinaa yajḥadoon.

That is the reward of Allah’s enemies: the Fire, which will be their eternal home—a ˹fitting˺ reward for their denial of Our revelations.

Verse 41:29

وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا رَبَّنَاۤ اَرِنَا الَّذَیْنِ اَضَلّٰنَا مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْاِنْسِ نَجْعَلْهُمَا تَحْتَ اَقْدَامِنَا لِیَكُوْنَا مِنَ الْاَسْفَلِیْنَ ۟

Wa-q̣aalal laẓeena kafaroo Rabbanaaa ʹarinal laẓeena ʹaḍal-laanaa minal jinni wal-ʹiñsi najʻalhumaa taḥta ʹaq̣daaminaa liyakoonaa minal ʹasfaleen.

The disbelievers will ˹then˺ cry, “Our Lord! Show us those jinn and humans who led us astray: we will put them under our feet so that they will be among the lowest ˹in Hell˺.”

Verse 41:30

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ قَالُوْا رَبُّنَا اللّٰهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَقَامُوْا تَتَنَزَّلُ عَلَیْهِمُ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ اَلَّا تَخَافُوْا وَلَا تَحْزَنُوْا وَاَبْشِرُوْا بِالْجَنَّةِ الَّتِیْ كُنْتُمْ تُوْعَدُوْنَ ۟

ʹInnal laẓeena q̣aaloo Rabbunal laahu s̤ummas taq̣aamoo tatanazzalu ʻalayhimul malaaaʹikatu ʹallaa takhaafoo wa-laa taḥzanoo wa-ʹabshiroo bil-Jannatil latee kuñtum tooʻadoon!

Surely those who say, “Our Lord is Allah,” and then remain steadfast, the angels descend upon them, ˹saying,˺ “Do not fear, nor grieve. Rather, rejoice in the good news of Paradise, which you have been promised.

Verse 41:31

نَحْنُ اَوْلِیٰٓؤُكُمْ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا وَفِی الْاٰخِرَةِ ۚ وَلَكُمْ فِیْهَا مَا تَشْتَهِیْۤ اَنْفُسُكُمْ وَلَكُمْ فِیْهَا مَا تَدَّعُوْنَ ۟ؕ

Naḥnu ʹawliyaaaʹukum fil ḥayaatid dunyaa wa-fil ʹAakhirah: wa-lakum feehaa maa- tashtaheee ʹañfusukum wa-lakum feehaa maa- taddaʻoon!

We are your supporters in this worldly life and in the Hereafter. There you will have whatever your souls desire, and there you will have whatever you ask for:

Verse 41:32

نُزُلًا مِّنْ غَفُوْرٍ رَّحِیْمٍ ۟۠

Nuzulam min G̣afoorir Raḥeem.

an accommodation from the All-Forgiving, Most Merciful ˹Lord˺.”

Verse 41:33

وَمَنْ اَحْسَنُ قَوْلًا مِّمَّنْ دَعَاۤ اِلَی اللّٰهِ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا وَّقَالَ اِنَّنِیْ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ ۟

Wa-man ʹaḥsanu q̣awlam mimmañ daʻaaa ʹilal laahi wa-ʻamila ṣaaliḥañw waq̣aala ʹinnanee minal Muslimeen?

And whose words are better than someone who calls ˹others˺ to Allah, does good, and says, “I am truly one of those who submit.”?

Verse 41:34

وَلَا تَسْتَوِی الْحَسَنَةُ وَلَا السَّیِّئَةُ ؕ اِدْفَعْ بِالَّتِیْ هِیَ اَحْسَنُ فَاِذَا الَّذِیْ بَیْنَكَ وَبَیْنَهٗ عَدَاوَةٌ كَاَنَّهٗ وَلِیٌّ حَمِیْمٌ ۟

Wa-laa tastawil ḥasanatu wa-las sayyiʹah. ʹIdfaʻ billatee hiya ʹaḥsanu faʹiẓal laẓee baynaka wa-baynahoo ʻadaawatuñ kaʹannahoo wa-liyyun ḥameem!

Good and evil cannot be equal. Respond ˹to evil˺ with what is best, then the one you are in a feud with will be like a close friend.

Verse 41:35

وَمَا یُلَقّٰىهَاۤ اِلَّا الَّذِیْنَ صَبَرُوْا ۚ وَمَا یُلَقّٰىهَاۤ اِلَّا ذُوْ حَظٍّ عَظِیْمٍ ۟

Wa-maa yulaq̣q̣aahaaa ʹillal laẓeena wa-maa ṣabaroo yulaq̣q̣aahaaa ʹillaa ẓoo ḥaz̤̣z̤̣in ʻaz̤̣eem.

But this cannot be attained except by those who are patient and who are truly fortunate.

Verse 41:36

وَاِمَّا یَنْزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ الشَّیْطٰنِ نَزْغٌ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ السَّمِیْعُ الْعَلِیْمُ ۟

Wa-ʹimmaa yañzag̣annaka minash Shayṭaani nazg̣uñ fastaʻiẓ billaah. ʹInnahoo Huwas Sameeʻul ʻAleem.

And if you are tempted by Satan, then seek refuge with Allah. Indeed, He ˹alone˺ is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

Verse 41:37

وَمِنْ اٰیٰتِهِ الَّیْلُ وَالنَّهَارُ وَالشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ ؕ لَا تَسْجُدُوْا لِلشَّمْسِ وَلَا لِلْقَمَرِ وَاسْجُدُوْا لِلّٰهِ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَهُنَّ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ اِیَّاهُ تَعْبُدُوْنَ ۟

Wa-min ʹAayaatihil laylu wannahaaru washshamsu walq̣amar. Laa- tasjudoo lishshamsi wa-laa lilq̣amari wasjudoo lillaahil laẓee khalaq̣ahunna ʹiñ kuñtum ʹiyyaahu taʻbudoon.

Among His signs are the day and the night, the sun and the moon. Do not prostrate to the sun or the moon, but prostrate to Allah, Who created them ˹all˺, if you ˹truly˺ worship Him ˹alone˺.

Verse 41:38

فَاِنِ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا فَالَّذِیْنَ عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ یُسَبِّحُوْنَ لَهٗ بِالَّیْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَهُمْ لَا یَسْـَٔمُوْنَ ۟

Faʹinis takbaroo fallaẓeena ʻiñda Rabbika yusabbiḥoona lahoo billayli wannahaari wahum laa- yasʹamoon.

But if the pagans are too proud, then ˹let them know that˺ those ˹angels˺ nearest to your Lord glorify Him day and night, and never grow weary.

Verse 41:39

وَمِنْ اٰیٰتِهٖۤ اَنَّكَ تَرَی الْاَرْضَ خَاشِعَةً فَاِذَاۤ اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَیْهَا الْمَآءَ اهْتَزَّتْ وَرَبَتْ ؕ اِنَّ الَّذِیْۤ اَحْیَاهَا لَمُحْیِ الْمَوْتٰی ؕ اِنَّهٗ عَلٰی كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ ۟

Wa-min ʹAayaatiheee ʹannaka taral ʹarḍa khaashiʻatañ faʹiẓaaa ʹañzalnaa ʻalayhal maaaʹah tazzat wa-rabat. ʹInnal laẓeee ʹaḥyaahaa la-Muḥyil mawtaa. ʹInnahoo ʻalaa kulli shayʹiñ Q̣adeer.

And among His signs is that you see the earth devoid of life, but as soon as We send down rain upon it, it begins to stir ˹to life˺ and swell. Indeed, the One Who revives it can easily revive the dead. He is certainly Most Capable of everything.

Verse 41:40

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ یُلْحِدُوْنَ فِیْۤ اٰیٰتِنَا لَا یَخْفَوْنَ عَلَیْنَا ؕ اَفَمَنْ یُّلْقٰی فِی النَّارِ خَیْرٌ اَمْ مَّنْ یَّاْتِیْۤ اٰمِنًا یَّوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ ؕ اِعْمَلُوْا مَا شِئْتُمْ ۙ اِنَّهٗ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِیْرٌ ۟

ʹInnal laẓeena yulḥidoona feee ʹAayaatinaa laa- yakhfawna ʻalaynaa. ʹAfamañy yulq̣aa fin naari khayrun ʹam mañy yaʹteee ʹaaminañy Yawmal Q̣iyaamah? ʹIʻmaloo maa- shiʹtum ʹinnahoo bimaa taʻmaloona Baṣeer.

Indeed, those who abuse Our revelations are not hidden from Us. Who is better: the one who will be cast into the Fire or the one who will be secure on Judgment Day? Do whatever you want. He is certainly All-Seeing of what you do.

Verse 41:41

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِالذِّكْرِ لَمَّا جَآءَهُمْ ۚ وَاِنَّهٗ لَكِتٰبٌ عَزِیْزٌ ۟ۙ

ʹInnal laẓeena kafaroo biẓ-Ẓikri lammaa jaaaʹahum. Wa-ʹinnahoo la-Kitaabun ʻAzeez.

Indeed, those who deny the Reminder after it has come to them ˹are doomed˺, for it is truly a mighty Book.

Verse 41:42

لَّا یَاْتِیْهِ الْبَاطِلُ مِنْ بَیْنِ یَدَیْهِ وَلَا مِنْ خَلْفِهٖ ؕ تَنْزِیْلٌ مِّنْ حَكِیْمٍ حَمِیْدٍ ۟

Laa- yaʹteehil baaṭilu mim bayni yadayhi wa-laa min khalfih: Tañzeelum min Ḥakeemin Ḥameed.

It cannot be proven false from any angle. ˹It is˺ a revelation from the ˹One Who is˺ All-Wise, Praiseworthy.

Verse 41:43

مَا یُقَالُ لَكَ اِلَّا مَا قَدْ قِیْلَ لِلرُّسُلِ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ ؕ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُوْ مَغْفِرَةٍ وَّذُوْ عِقَابٍ اَلِیْمٍ ۟

Maa- yuq̣aalu laka ʹillaa maa- q̣ad q̣eela lir-rusuli miñ q̣ablik: ʹinna Rabbaka la-Ẓoo mag̣firatiñw wa-Ẓoo ʻIq̣aabin ʹaleem.

˹O Prophet!˺ Nothing is said to you ˹by the deniers˺ except what was already said to the messengers before you. Surely your Lord is ˹the Lord˺ of forgiveness and painful punishment.

Verse 41:44

وَلَوْ جَعَلْنٰهُ قُرْاٰنًا اَعْجَمِیًّا لَّقَالُوْا لَوْلَا فُصِّلَتْ اٰیٰتُهٗ ؕ ءَؔاَعْجَمِیٌّ وَّعَرَبِیٌّ ؕ قُلْ هُوَ لِلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا هُدًی وَّشِفَآءٌ ؕ وَالَّذِیْنَ لَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ فِیْۤ اٰذَانِهِمْ وَقْرٌ وَّهُوَ عَلَیْهِمْ عَمًی ؕ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ یُنَادَوْنَ مِنْ مَّكَانٍ بَعِیْدٍ ۟۠

Wa-law jaʻalnaahu Q̣ur-ʹaanan ʹAʻjamiyyal laq̣aaloo law-laa fuṣṣilat ʹAayaatuh? ʹAʻ-jamiyyuñw WaʻArabiyy? Q̣ul huwa lillaẓeena ʹaamanoo hudañw washifaaaʹ: wallaẓeena laa- yuʹminoona feee ʹaaẓaanihim waq̣ruñw wahuwa ʻalayhim ʻamaa. ʹUlaaaʹika yunaadawna mim makaanim baʻeed!

Had We revealed it as a non-Arabic Quran, they would have certainly argued, “If only its verses were made clear ˹in our language˺. What! A non-Arabic revelation for an Arab audience!” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “It is a guide and a healing to the believers. As for those who disbelieve, there is deafness in their ears and blindness to it ˹in their hearts˺. It is as if they are being called from a faraway place.”

Verse 41:45

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسَی الْكِتٰبَ فَاخْتُلِفَ فِیْهِ ؕ وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ لَقُضِیَ بَیْنَهُمْ ؕ وَاِنَّهُمْ لَفِیْ شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ مُرِیْبٍ ۟

Wa-laq̣ad ʹaataynaa Moosal Kitaaba fakhtulifa feeh. Wa-lawlaa Kalimatuñ sabaq̣at mir Rabbika laq̣uḍiya baynahum: wa-ʹinnahum lafee shakkim minhu mureeb.

Indeed, We had given Moses the Scripture, but differences arose regarding it. Had it not been for a prior decree from your Lord, their differences would have been settled ˹at once˺. They are truly in alarming doubt about it.

Verse 41:46

مَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَلِنَفْسِهٖ ۚ وَمَنْ اَسَآءَ فَعَلَیْهَا ؕ وَمَا رَبُّكَ بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلْعَبِیْدِ ۟

Man ʻamila ṣaaliḥañ falinafsihee wa-man ʹasaaaʹa faʻalayhaa: wa-maa Rabbuka biz̤̣allamil lil-ʻabeed.

Whoever does good, it is to their own benefit. And whoever does evil, it is to their own loss. Your Lord is never unjust to ˹His˺ creation.

Verse 41:47

اِلَیْهِ یُرَدُّ عِلْمُ السَّاعَةِ ؕ وَمَا تَخْرُجُ مِنْ ثَمَرٰتٍ مِّنْ اَكْمَامِهَا وَمَا تَحْمِلُ مِنْ اُ وَلَا تَضَعُ اِلَّا بِعِلْمِهٖ ؕ وَیَوْمَ یُنَادِیْهِمْ اَیْنَ شُرَكَآءِیْ ۙ قَالُوْۤا اٰذَنّٰكَ ۙ مَا مِنَّا مِنْ شَهِیْدٍ ۟ۚ

ʹIlayhi yuraddu ʻilmus Saaʻah: wa-maa takhruju miñ s̤amaraatim min ʹakmaamihaa wa-maa taḥmilu min ʹuñs̤aa wa-laa taḍaʻu ʹillaa biʻilmih. Wa-Yawma yunaadeehim ʹayna shurakaaaʹee q̣aalooo ʹaaẓannaaka maa- minnaa miñ shaheed!

With Him ˹alone˺ is the knowledge of the Hour. No fruit comes out of its husk, nor does a female conceive or deliver without His knowledge. And ˹consider˺ the Day He will call to them, “Where are My ˹so-called˺ associate-gods?” They will cry, “We declare before you that none of us testifies to that ˹any longer˺.”

Verse 41:48

وَضَلَّ عَنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا یَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَظَنُّوْا مَا لَهُمْ مِّنْ مَّحِیْصٍ ۟

Wa-ḍalla ʻanhum maa kaanoo yadʻoona miñ q̣ablu waz̤̣annoo maa- lahum mim maḥeeṣ.

Whatever ˹idols˺ they used to invoke besides Allah will fail them. And they will realize that they will have no escape.

Verse 41:49

لَا یَسْـَٔمُ الْاِنْسَانُ مِنْ دُعَآءِ الْخَیْرِ ؗ وَاِنْ مَّسَّهُ الشَّرُّ فَیَـُٔوْسٌ قَنُوْطٌ ۟

Laa- yasʹamul ʹiñsaanu miñ duʻaaaʹil khayri wa-ʹim massa hushsharru fayaʹoosuñ q̣anooṭ.

One never tires of praying for good. And if touched with evil, they become desperate and hopeless.

Verse 41:50

وَلَىِٕنْ اَذَقْنٰهُ رَحْمَةً مِّنَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ ضَرَّآءَ مَسَّتْهُ لَیَقُوْلَنَّ هٰذَا لِیْ ۙ وَمَاۤ اَظُنُّ السَّاعَةَ قَآىِٕمَةً ۙ وَّلَىِٕنْ رُّجِعْتُ اِلٰی رَبِّیْۤ اِنَّ لِیْ عِنْدَهٗ لَلْحُسْنٰی ۚ فَلَنُنَبِّئَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِمَا عَمِلُوْا ؗ وَلَنُذِیْقَنَّهُمْ مِّنْ عَذَابٍ غَلِیْظٍ ۟

Wa-laʹin ʹaẓaq̣naahu Raḥmatam minnaa mim baʻdi ḍar-raaaʹa massathu layaq̣oolanna haaẓaa lee wa-maaa ʹaz̤̣unnus Saaʻata q̣aaaʹimatañw walaʹir rujiʻtu ʹilaa Rabbeee ʹinna lee ʻiñdahoo lalḥusnaa! Falanunabbiʹannal laẓeena kafaroo bimaa ʻamiloo, wa-lanuẓeeq̣an-nahum min ʻAẓaabin g̣aleez̤̣.

And if We let them taste a mercy from Us after being touched with adversity, they will certainly say, “This is what I deserve. I do not think the Hour will ˹ever˺ come. And if in fact I am returned to my Lord, the finest reward with Him will definitely be mine.” But We will surely inform the disbelievers of what they used to do. And We will certainly make them taste a harsh torment.

Verse 41:51

وَاِذَاۤ اَنْعَمْنَا عَلَی الْاِنْسَانِ اَعْرَضَ وَنَاٰ بِجَانِبِهٖ ۚ وَاِذَا مَسَّهُ الشَّرُّ فَذُوْ دُعَآءٍ عَرِیْضٍ ۟

Wa-ʹiẓaaa ʹanʻamnaa ʻalal ʹiñsaani ʹaʻraḍa wa-naʹaa bijaanibih; wa-ʹiẓaa massahush sharru faẓoo duʻaaaʹin ʻareeḍ!

When We show favour to someone, they turn away, acting arrogantly. And when touched with evil, they make endless prayers ˹for good˺.

Verse 41:52

قُلْ اَرَءَیْتُمْ اِنْ كَانَ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ كَفَرْتُمْ بِهٖ مَنْ اَضَلُّ مِمَّنْ هُوَ فِیْ شِقَاقٍ بَعِیْدٍ ۟

Q̣ul ʹaraʹaytum ʹiñ kaana min ʻiñdil laahi s̤umma kafartum̃ bihee man ʹaḍallu mimman huwa fee shiq̣aaq̣im baʻeed?

Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Imagine if this ˹Quran˺ is ˹truly˺ from Allah and you deny it: who can be more astray than those who have gone too far in opposition ˹to the truth˺?”

Verse 41:53

سَنُرِیْهِمْ اٰیٰتِنَا فِی الْاٰفَاقِ وَفِیْۤ اَنْفُسِهِمْ حَتّٰی یَتَبَیَّنَ لَهُمْ اَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ ؕ اَوَلَمْ یَكْفِ بِرَبِّكَ اَنَّهٗ عَلٰی كُلِّ شَیْءٍ شَهِیْدٌ ۟

Sanureehim ʹAayaatinaa fil ʹaafaaq̣i wa-feee ʹañfusihim ḥattaa yatabayyana lahum ʹannahul Ḥaq̣q̣. ʹA-walam yakfi bi-Rabbika ʹannahoo ʻalaa kulli shayʹiñ shaheed?

We will show them Our signs in the universe and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that this ˹Quran˺ is the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord is a Witness over all things?

Verse 41:54

اَلَاۤ اِنَّهُمْ فِیْ مِرْیَةٍ مِّنْ لِّقَآءِ رَبِّهِمْ ؕ اَلَاۤ اِنَّهٗ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ مُّحِیْطٌ ۟۠

ʹAlaaa ʹinnahum fee miryatim mil Liq̣aaaʹi Rabbihim? ʹAlaaa ʹinnahoo bikulli shayʹim Muḥeeṭ.

They are truly in doubt of the meeting with their Lord! ˹But˺ He is indeed Fully Aware of everything.
