وَٱلْقُرْءَانِ ٱلْحَكِيمِ

Wal-Q̣urʹaanil Ḥakeem,―

By the wise Qur’ān,

إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ

ʹInnaka laminal mursaleen,

Indeed you, [O Muḥammad], are from among the messengers,

عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ

ʻAlaa Ṣiraaṭim Mustaq̣eem.

On a straight path.

تَنزِيلَ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Tañzeelal ʻAzeezir Raḥeem,

[This is] a revelation of the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

لِتُنذِرَ قَوْمًا مَّآ أُنذِرَ ءَابَآؤُهُمْ فَهُمْ غَـٰفِلُونَ

Lituñẓira q̣awmam maaa ʹuñẓira ʹaabaaaʹuhum fahum g̣aafiloon.

That you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are unaware.

لَقَدْ حَقَّ ٱلْقَوْلُ عَلَىٰٓ أَكْثَرِهِمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Laq̣ad ḥaq̣q̣al Q̣awlu ʻalaaa ʹaks̤arihim fahum laa- yuʹminoon.

Already the word [i.e., decree] has come into effect upon most of them, so they do not believe.

إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا فِىٓ أَعْنَـٰقِهِمْ أَغْلَـٰلًا فَهِىَ إِلَى ٱلْأَذْقَانِ فَهُم مُّقْمَحُونَ

ʹInnaa jaʻalnaa feee ʹaʻnaaq̣ihim ʹag̣laalañ fahiya ʹilal ʹaẓq̣aani fahum muq̣maḥoon.

Indeed, We have put shackles on their necks, and they are to their chins, so they are with heads [kept] aloft.

وَجَعَلْنَا مِنۢ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّا فَأَغْشَيْنَـٰهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ

Wa-jaʻalnaa mim bayni ʹaydeehim saddañw wamin khalfihim saddañ faʹag̣shaynaahum fahum laa- yubṣiroon.

And We have put before them a barrier and behind them a barrier and covered them, so they do not see.

وَسَوَآءٌ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَأَنذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ تُنذِرْهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Wa-sawaaaʹun ʻalayhim ʹaʹañẓartahum ʹam lam tuñẓirhum laa- yuʹminoon.

And it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.

إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلذِّكْرَ وَخَشِىَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنَ بِٱلْغَيْبِ ۖ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ وَأَجْرٍ كَرِيمٍ

ʹInnamaa tuñẓiru manit taba ʻaẓ-Ẓikra wa-khashiyar Raḥmaana bilg̣ayb: fabashshirhu bi-Mag̣firatiñw waʹAjriñ Kareem.

You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward.

إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْىِ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا۟ وَءَاثَـٰرَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَـٰهُ فِىٓ إِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ

ʹInnaa Naḥnu nuḥyil mawtaa wanaktubu maa- q̣addamoo wa-ʹaas̤aarahum: wa-kulla shayʹin ʹaḥṣaynaahu feee ʹImaamim mubeen.

Indeed, it is We who bring the dead to life and record what they have put forth and what they left behind, and all things We have enumerated in a clear register.

وَٱضْرِبْ لَهُم مَّثَلًا أَصْحَـٰبَ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ إِذْ جَآءَهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ

Waḍrib lahum mas̤alan ʹAṣḥaabal Q̣aryah. ʹIẓ jaaaʹahal mursaloon.

And present to them an example: the people of the city, when the messengers came to it -

إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَيْهِمُ ٱثْنَيْنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ فَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ إِلَيْكُم مُّرْسَلُونَ

ʹIẓ ʹarsalnaaa ʹilayhimus̤ nayni fakaẓẓaboohumaa faʻazzaznaa bis̤aalis̤iñ faq̣aalooo ʹinnaaa ʹilaykum mursaloon.

When We sent to them two but they denied them, so We strengthened [them] with a third, and they said, "Indeed, we are messengers to you."

قَالُوا۟ مَآ أَنتُمْ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا وَمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ مِن شَىْءٍ إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلَّا تَكْذِبُونَ

Q̣aaloo maaa ʹañtum ʹillaa basharum mis̤lunaa wa-maaa ʹañzalar Raḥmaanu miñ shayʹin ʹin ʹañtum ʹillaa takẓiboon.

They said, "You are not but human beings like us, and the Most Merciful has not revealed a thing. You are only telling lies."

قَالُوا۟ رَبُّنَا يَعْلَمُ إِنَّآ إِلَيْكُمْ لَمُرْسَلُونَ

Q̣aaloo Rabbunaa yaʻlamu ʹinnaaa ʹilaykum lamursaloon:

They said, "Our Lord knows that we are messengers to you,

وَمَا عَلَيْنَآ إِلَّا ٱلْبَلَـٰغُ ٱلْمُبِينُ

Wa-maa ʻalaynaaa ʹillal Balaag̣ul mubeen.

And we are not responsible except for clear notification."

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا تَطَيَّرْنَا بِكُمْ ۖ لَئِن لَّمْ تَنتَهُوا۟ لَنَرْجُمَنَّكُمْ وَلَيَمَسَّنَّكُم مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

Q̣aalooo ʹinnaa taṭayyarnaa bikum: laʹil lam tañtahoo lanarjumannakum wa-la-yamassan-nakum minnaa ʻaẓaabun ʹaleem.

They said, "Indeed, we consider you a bad omen. If you do not desist, we will surely stone you, and there will surely touch you, from us, a painful punishment."

قَالُوا۟ طَـٰٓئِرُكُم مَّعَكُمْ ۚ أَئِن ذُكِّرْتُم ۚ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّسْرِفُونَ

Q̣aaloo ṭaaaʹirukum maʻakum: ʹaʹiñ ẓukkirtum? Bal ʹañtum q̣awmum musrifoon!

They said, "Your omen [i.e., fate] is with yourselves. Is it because you were reminded? Rather, you are a transgressing people."

وَجَآءَ مِنْ أَقْصَا ٱلْمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٌ يَسْعَىٰ قَالَ يَـٰقَوْمِ ٱتَّبِعُوا۟ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ

Wa-jaaaʹa min ʹaq̣ṣal Madeenati rajuluñy yasʻaa q̣aala yaa-q̣awmit tabiʻul mursaleen:

And there came from the farthest end of the city a man, running. He said, "O my people, follow the messengers.

ٱتَّبِعُوا۟ مَن لَّا يَسْـَٔلُكُمْ أَجْرًا وَهُم مُّهْتَدُونَ

ʹIttabiʻoo mal laa yasʹalukum ʹajrañw Wahum muhtadoon.

Follow those who do not ask of you [any] payment, and they are [rightly] guided.

وَمَا لِىَ لَآ أَعْبُدُ ٱلَّذِى فَطَرَنِى وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ

Wa-maa liya laaa ʹaʻbudul laẓee faṭaranee wa-ʹilayhi turjaʻoon.

And why should I not worship He who created me and to whom you will be returned?

ءَأَتَّخِذُ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةً إِن يُرِدْنِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ بِضُرٍّ لَّا تُغْنِ عَنِّى شَفَـٰعَتُهُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَلَا يُنقِذُونِ

ʹA-ʹattakhiẓu miñ dooniheee ʹaalihatan ʹiñy yuridnir Raḥmaanu biḍurril laa tug̣ni ʻannee shafaaʻatuhum shayʹañw walaa yuñq̣iẓoon.

Should I take other than Him [false] deities [while], if the Most Merciful intends for me some adversity, their intercession will not avail me at all, nor can they save me?

إِنِّىٓ إِذًا لَّفِى ضَلَـٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ

ʹInneee ʹiẓal lafee Ḍalaalim mubeen.

Indeed, I would then be in manifest error.

إِنِّىٓ ءَامَنتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ فَٱسْمَعُونِ

ʹInneee ʹaamañtu bi-Rabbikum fasmaʻoon!

Indeed, I have believed in your Lord, so listen to me."

قِيلَ ٱدْخُلِ ٱلْجَنَّةَ ۖ قَالَ يَـٰلَيْتَ قَوْمِى يَعْلَمُونَ

Q̣eelad khulil Jannah. Q̣aala yaa-layta Q̣awmee yaʻlamoon,

It was said, "Enter Paradise." He said, "I wish my people could know

بِمَا غَفَرَ لِى رَبِّى وَجَعَلَنِى مِنَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ

Bimaa lee g̣afara Rabbee wa-jaʻalanee minal mukrameen!

Of how my Lord has forgiven me and placed me among the honored."

۞ وَمَآ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَىٰ قَوْمِهِۦ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِۦ مِن جُندٍ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا كُنَّا مُنزِلِينَ

Wa-maaa ʹañzalnaa ʻalaa Q̣awmihee mim baʻdihee miñ juñdim minas samaaaʹi wa-maa kunnaa muñzileen.

And We did not send down upon his people after him any soldiers from the heaven, nor would We have done so.

إِن كَانَتْ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَٰحِدَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ خَـٰمِدُونَ

ʹIñ kaanat ʹillaa ṣayḥatañw waaḥidatañ faʹiẓaa hum khaamidoon.

It was not but one shout, and immediately they were extinguished.

يَـٰحَسْرَةً عَلَى ٱلْعِبَادِ ۚ مَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ

Yaa-ḥasratan ʻalal ʻibaad! Maa- yaʹteehim mir rasoolin ʹillaa kaanoo bihee yastahziʹoon!

How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him.

أَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْقُرُونِ أَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ

ʹAlam yaraw kam ʹahlaknaa q̣ablahum minal q̣urooni ʹannahum ilayhim laa-ʹ yarjiʻoon?

Have they not considered how many generations We destroyed before them - that they to them will not return?

وَإِن كُلٌّ لَّمَّا جَمِيعٌ لَّدَيْنَا مُحْضَرُونَ

Waʹiñ kullul lammaa jameeʻul ladaynaa muḥḍaroon.

And indeed, all of them will yet be brought present before Us.

وَءَايَةٌ لَّهُمُ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلْمَيْتَةُ أَحْيَيْنَـٰهَا وَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهَا حَبًّا فَمِنْهُ يَأْكُلُونَ

Wa-ʹAayatul lahumul ʹarḍul maytah: ʹaḥyaynaahaa wa-ʹakhrajnaa minhaa ḥabbañ faminhu yaʹkuloon.

And a sign for them is the dead earth. We have brought it to life and brought forth from it grain, and from it they eat.

وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا جَنَّـٰتٍ مِّن نَّخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَـٰبٍ وَفَجَّرْنَا فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْعُيُونِ

Wa-jaʻalnaa feehaa jannaatim min nakheeliñw waʹaʻnaabiñw wafajjarnaa feehaa minal ʻuyoon:

And We placed therein gardens of palm trees and grapevines and caused to burst forth therefrom some springs -

لِيَأْكُلُوا۟ مِن ثَمَرِهِۦ وَمَا عَمِلَتْهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ ۖ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُونَ

Liyaʹkuloo miñ s̤amarihee, wa-maa ʻamilathu ʹaydeehim: ʹafalaa yashkuroon?

That they may eat of His fruit. And their hands have not produced it, so will they not be grateful?

سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلْأَزْوَٰجَ كُلَّهَا مِمَّا تُنۢبِتُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَمِنْ أَنفُسِهِمْ وَمِمَّا لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

Subḥaanal laẓee khalaq̣al ʹazwaaja kullahaa mimmaa tumbitul ʹarḍu wa-min ʹañfusihim Wamimmaa laa- yaʻlamoon.

Exalted is He who created all pairs - from what the earth grows and from themselves and from that which they do not know.

وَءَايَةٌ لَّهُمُ ٱلَّيْلُ نَسْلَخُ مِنْهُ ٱلنَّهَارَ فَإِذَا هُم مُّظْلِمُونَ

Wa-ʹAayatul lahumul Laylu naslakhu minhun Nahaara faʹiẓaa hum muz̤̣limoon;

And a sign for them is the night. We remove from it the [light of] day, so they are [left] in darkness.

وَٱلشَّمْسُ تَجْرِى لِمُسْتَقَرٍّ لَّهَا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْعَلِيمِ

Wash-Shamsu tajree limustaq̣arril lahaa: ẓaalika taq̣deerul ʻAzeezil ʻAleem.

And the sun runs [on course] toward its stopping point. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.

وَٱلْقَمَرَ قَدَّرْنَـٰهُ مَنَازِلَ حَتَّىٰ عَادَ كَٱلْعُرْجُونِ ٱلْقَدِيمِ

Wal-Q̣amara q̣addarnaahu manaazila ḥattaa ʻaada kalʻurjoonil q̣adeem.

And the moon - We have determined for it phases, until it returns [appearing] like the old date stalk.

لَا ٱلشَّمْسُ يَنۢبَغِى لَهَآ أَن تُدْرِكَ ٱلْقَمَرَ وَلَا ٱلَّيْلُ سَابِقُ ٱلنَّهَارِ ۚ وَكُلٌّ فِى فَلَكٍ يَسْبَحُونَ

Lash Shamsu yambag̣ee lahaaa ʹañ tudrikal Q̣amara wa-lal Laylu saabiq̣un Nahaar: wa-kulluñ fee falakiñy yasbaḥoon.

It is not allowable [i.e., possible] for the sun to reach the moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but each, in an orbit, is swimming.

وَءَايَةٌ لَّهُمْ أَنَّا حَمَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ فِى ٱلْفُلْكِ ٱلْمَشْحُونِ

Wa-ʹAayatul lahum ʹannaa ḥamalnaa ẓurriyyatahum fil fulkil mashḥoon;

And a sign for them is that We carried their forefathers in a laden ship.

وَخَلَقْنَا لَهُم مِّن مِّثْلِهِۦ مَا يَرْكَبُونَ

Wa-khalaq̣naa lahum mim mis̤lihee maa- yarkaboon.

And We created for them from the likes of it that which they ride.

وَإِن نَّشَأْ نُغْرِقْهُمْ فَلَا صَرِيخَ لَهُمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُنقَذُونَ

Wa-ʹin nashaʹ nug̣riq̣hum falaa ṣareekha lahum wa-laa hum yuñq̣aẓoon,

And if We should will, We could drown them; then no one responding to a cry would there be for them, nor would they be saved

إِلَّا رَحْمَةً مِّنَّا وَمَتَـٰعًا إِلَىٰ حِينٍ

ʹIllaa Raḥmatam minnaa wa-mataaʻan ʹilaa ḥeen.

Except as a mercy from Us and provision for a time.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّقُوا۟ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَمَا خَلْفَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ

Wa-ʹiẓaa q̣eela lahumut taq̣oo Maa- bayna ʹaydeekum wa-maa khalfakum laʻallakum turḥamoon.

But when it is said to them, "Beware of what is before you and what is behind you; perhaps you will receive mercy..."

وَمَا تَأْتِيهِم مِّنْ ءَايَةٍ مِّنْ ءَايَـٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ

Wa-maa taʹteehim min ʹAayatim min ʹAayaati Rabbihim ʹillaa kaanoo ʻanhaa muʻriḍeen.

And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they are from it turning away.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ أَنفِقُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَنُطْعِمُ مَن لَّوْ يَشَآءُ ٱللَّهُ أَطْعَمَهُۥٓ إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلَّا فِى ضَلَـٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ

Wa-ʹiẓaa q̣eela lahum ʹañfiq̣oo mimmaa razaq̣akumul laahu q̣aalal laẓeena kafaroo lillaẓeena ʹaamanooo ʹanuṭʻimu mal law yashaaaʹul laahu ʹaṭʻamah?― ʹIn ʹañtum ʹillaa fee ḍalaalim mubeen.

And when it is said to them, "Spend from that which Allāh has provided for you," those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Should we feed one whom, if Allāh had willed, He would have fed? You are not but in clear error."

وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَـٰذَا ٱلْوَعْدُ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ

Wa-yaq̣ooloona mataa haaẓal waʻdu ʹiñ kuñtum ṣaadiq̣een?

And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful?"

مَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَٰحِدَةً تَأْخُذُهُمْ وَهُمْ يَخِصِّمُونَ

Maa- yañz̤̣uroona ʹillaa Ṣayḥatañw waaḥidatañ taʹkhuẓuhum wa-hum yakhiṣṣimoon!

They do not await except one blast which will seize them while they are disputing.

فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ تَوْصِيَةً وَلَآ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِمْ يَرْجِعُونَ

Falaa yastaṭeeʻoona taw-ṣiyatañw walaaa ʹilaaa ʹahlihim yarjiʻoon!

And they will not be able [to give] any instruction, nor to their people can they return.

وَنُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَإِذَا هُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَجْدَاثِ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَنسِلُونَ

Wa-nufikha fiṣ Ṣoori faʹiẓaa hum minal ʹajdaas̤i ʹilaa Rabbihim yañsiloon!

And the Horn will be blown; and at once from the graves to their Lord they will hasten.

قَالُوا۟ يَـٰوَيْلَنَا مَنۢ بَعَثَنَا مِن مَّرْقَدِنَا ۜ ۗ هَـٰذَا مَا وَعَدَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ وَصَدَقَ ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ

Q̣aaloo yaa-waylanaa mam baʻas̤anaa mim marq̣adinaa Haaẓaa maa- waʻadar Raḥmaanu waṣadaq̣al mursaloon!

They will say, "O woe to us! Who has raised us up from our sleeping place?" [The reply will be], "This is what the Most Merciful had promised, and the messengers told the truth."

إِن كَانَتْ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَٰحِدَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ جَمِيعٌ لَّدَيْنَا مُحْضَرُونَ

ʹIñ kaanat ʹillaa Ṣayḥatañw waaḥidatañ faʹiẓaa hum jameeʻul ladaynaa muḥḍaroon!

It will not be but one blast, and at once they are all brought present before Us.

فَٱلْيَوْمَ لَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْـًٔا وَلَا تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

Fal-Yawma laa- tuz̤̣lamu nafsuñ shayʹañwwa laa- tujzawna ʹillaa maa- kuñtum taʻmaloon.

So today [i.e., the Day of Judgement] no soul will be wronged at all, and you will not be recompensed except for what you used to do.

إِنَّ أَصْحَـٰبَ ٱلْجَنَّةِ ٱلْيَوْمَ فِى شُغُلٍ فَـٰكِهُونَ

ʹInna ʹAṣḥaabal Jannatil Yawma fee shug̣uliñ faakihoon;

Indeed the companions of Paradise, that Day, will be amused in [joyful] occupation -

هُمْ وَأَزْوَٰجُهُمْ فِى ظِلَـٰلٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ مُتَّكِـُٔونَ

Hum wa-ʹazwaajuhum fee z̤̣ilaalin ʻalal ʹaraaaʹiki muttakiʹoon;

They and their spouses - in shade, reclining on adorned couches.

لَهُمْ فِيهَا فَـٰكِهَةٌ وَلَهُم مَّا يَدَّعُونَ

Lahum feehaa faakihatuñw walahum maa yaddaʻoon;

For them therein is fruit, and for them is whatever they request [or wish]

سَلَـٰمٌ قَوْلًا مِّن رَّبٍّ رَّحِيمٍ

˹Salaam!˺― Q̣awlam mir Rabbir Raḥeem!

[And] "Peace," a word from a Merciful Lord.

وَٱمْتَـٰزُوا۟ ٱلْيَوْمَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُجْرِمُونَ

Wamtaazul Yawma ʹayyuhal mujrimoon!

[Then He will say], "But stand apart today, you criminals.

۞ أَلَمْ أَعْهَدْ إِلَيْكُمْ يَـٰبَنِىٓ ءَادَمَ أَن لَّا تَعْبُدُوا۟ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنَ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ

ʹAlam ʹaʻhad ʹilaykum yaa Baneee ʹAadama ʹallaa taʻbudush Shayṭaan; ʹinnahoo lakum ʻaduwwum mubeen?―

Did I not enjoin upon you, O children of Adam, that you not worship Satan - [for] indeed, he is to you a clear enemy -

وَأَنِ ٱعْبُدُونِى ۚ هَـٰذَا صِرَٰطٌ مُّسْتَقِيمٌ

Wa-ʹaniʻ budoonee. Haaẓaa Ṣiraaṭum Mustaq̣eem.

And that you worship [only] Me? This is a straight path.

وَلَقَدْ أَضَلَّ مِنكُمْ جِبِلًّا كَثِيرًا ۖ أَفَلَمْ تَكُونُوا۟ تَعْقِلُونَ

Wa-laq̣ad ʹaḍalla miñkum jibillañ kas̤eeraa. ʹAfalam takoonoo taʻq̣iloon?

And he had already led astray from among you much of creation, so did you not use reason?

هَـٰذِهِۦ جَهَنَّمُ ٱلَّتِى كُنتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ

Haaẓihee Jahannamul latee kuñtum tooʻadoon!

This is the Hellfire which you were promised.

ٱصْلَوْهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْفُرُونَ

ʹIṣlawhal Yawma bimaa kuñtum takfuroon.

[Enter to] burn therein today for what you used to deny."

ٱلْيَوْمَ نَخْتِمُ عَلَىٰٓ أَفْوَٰهِهِمْ وَتُكَلِّمُنَآ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَتَشْهَدُ أَرْجُلُهُم بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ

ʹAl-Yawma nakhtimu ʻalaaa ʹafwaahihim wa-tukallimunaaa ʹaydeehim wa-tashhadu ʹarjuluhum̃ bimaa kaanoo yaksiboon.

That Day, We will seal over their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their feet will testify about what they used to earn.

وَلَوْ نَشَآءُ لَطَمَسْنَا عَلَىٰٓ أَعْيُنِهِمْ فَٱسْتَبَقُوا۟ ٱلصِّرَٰطَ فَأَنَّىٰ يُبْصِرُونَ

Wa-law nashaaaʹu laṭamasnaa ʻalaaa ʹaʻyunihim fastabaq̣uṣ Ṣiraaṭa faʹannaa yubṣiroon?

And if We willed, We could have obliterated their eyes, and they would race to [find] the path, and how could they see?

وَلَوْ نَشَآءُ لَمَسَخْنَـٰهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِهِمْ فَمَا ٱسْتَطَـٰعُوا۟ مُضِيًّا وَلَا يَرْجِعُونَ

Wa-law nashaaaʹu lamasakhnaahum ʻalaa makaanatihim famas taṭaaʻoo muḍiyyañwwa laa- yarjiʻoon.

And if We willed, We could have deformed them, [paralyzing them] in their places so they would not be able to proceed, nor could they return.

وَمَن نُّعَمِّرْهُ نُنَكِّسْهُ فِى ٱلْخَلْقِ ۖ أَفَلَا يَعْقِلُونَ

Wa-man nuʻammirhu nunakkishu fil khalq̣: ʹafalaa yaʻq̣iloon?

And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation; so will they not understand?

وَمَا عَلَّمْنَـٰهُ ٱلشِّعْرَ وَمَا يَنۢبَغِى لَهُۥٓ ۚ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ وَقُرْءَانٌ مُّبِينٌ

Wa-maa ʻallamnaahush Shiʻra wa-maa yambag̣ee lah: ʹin huwa ʹillaa Ẓikruñwwa Q̣ur-ʹaanum Mubeen:

And We did not give him [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)] knowledge of poetry, nor is it befitting for him. It is not but a message and a clear Qur’ān

لِّيُنذِرَ مَن كَانَ حَيًّا وَيَحِقَّ ٱلْقَوْلُ عَلَى ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ

Liyuñẓira mañ kaana ḥayyañw wayaḥiq̣q̣al q̣awlu ʻalal kaafireen.

To warn whoever is alive and justify the word [i.e., decree] against the disbelievers.

أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ أَنَّا خَلَقْنَا لَهُم مِّمَّا عَمِلَتْ أَيْدِينَآ أَنْعَـٰمًا فَهُمْ لَهَا مَـٰلِكُونَ

ʹAwalam yaraw ʹannaa khalaq̣naa lahum mimmaa ʻamilat ʹaydeenaaa ʹanʻaamañ fahum lahaa maalikoon?―

Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners?

وَذَلَّلْنَـٰهَا لَهُمْ فَمِنْهَا رَكُوبُهُمْ وَمِنْهَا يَأْكُلُونَ

Wa-ẓallalnaahaa lahum faminhaa rakoobuhum wa-minhaa yaʹkuloon:

And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat.

وَلَهُمْ فِيهَا مَنَـٰفِعُ وَمَشَارِبُ ۖ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُونَ

Wa-lahum feehaa manaafiʻu wa-mashaarib. ʹAfalaa yashkuroon?

And for them therein are [other] benefits and drinks, so will they not be grateful?

وَٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ءَالِهَةً لَّعَلَّهُمْ يُنصَرُونَ

Wattakhaẓoo miñ doonil laahi ʹaalihatal laʻallahum yuñṣaroon!

But they have taken besides Allāh [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped.

لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَهُمْ وَهُمْ لَهُمْ جُندٌ مُّحْضَرُونَ

Laa- yastaṭeeʻoona naṣrahum wa-hum lahum juñdum muḥḍaroon.

They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance.

فَلَا يَحْزُنكَ قَوْلُهُمْ ۘ إِنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ

Falaa yaḥzuñka q̣awluhum. ʹInnaa naʻlamu maa- yusirroona wa-maa yuʻlinoon.

So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare.

أَوَلَمْ يَرَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ أَنَّا خَلَقْنَـٰهُ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٌ مُّبِينٌ

ʹAwalam yaral ʹiñsaanu ʹannaa khalaq̣naahu min nuṭfatiñ faʹiẓaa huwa khaṣeemum mubeen!

Does man not consider that We created him from a [mere] sperm-drop - then at once he is a clear adversary?

وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلًا وَنَسِىَ خَلْقَهُۥ ۖ قَالَ مَن يُحْىِ ٱلْعِظَـٰمَ وَهِىَ رَمِيمٌ

Wa-ḍaraba lanaa mas̤alañw wanasiya khalq̣ah: q̣aala mañy yuḥyil ʻiz̤̣aama wa-hiya rameem?

And he presents for Us an example and forgets his [own] creation. He says, "Who will give life to bones while they are disintegrated?"

قُلْ يُحْيِيهَا ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنشَأَهَآ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ ۖ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ خَلْقٍ عَلِيمٌ

Q̣ul yuḥ-yeehal laẓeee ʹañshaʹahaaa ʹawwala marrah! Wa-Huwa bikulli khalq̣in ʻAleem!

Say, "He will give them life who produced them the first time; and He is, of all creation, Knowing."

ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلشَّجَرِ ٱلْأَخْضَرِ نَارًا فَإِذَآ أَنتُم مِّنْهُ تُوقِدُونَ

ʹAllaẓee jaʻala lakum minash shajaril ʹakhḍari naarañ faʹiẓaaa ʹañtum minhu tooq̣idoon!

[It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite.

أَوَلَيْسَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ بِقَـٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يَخْلُقَ مِثْلَهُم ۚ بَلَىٰ وَهُوَ ٱلْخَلَّـٰقُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

ʹA-walaysal laẓee khalaq̣as samaawaati wal ʹarḍa bi-Q̣aadirin ʻalaaa ʹañyyakhluq̣a mis̤lahum?― Balaa! wa-Huwal Khallaaq̣ul ʻAleem!

Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them? Yes, [it is so]; and He is the Knowing Creator.

إِنَّمَآ أَمْرُهُۥٓ إِذَآ أَرَادَ شَيْـًٔا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ

ʹInnamaaa ʹAmruhooo ʹiẓaaa ʹaraada shayʹan ʹañy yaq̣oola lahoo ˹KUÑ˺ fayakoon!

His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is.

فَسُبْحَـٰنَ ٱلَّذِى بِيَدِهِۦ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ

Fa-Subḥaanal laẓee biyadihee Malakootu kulli shayʹiñw waʹilayhi turjaʻoon

So exalted is He in whose hand is the realm of all things, and to Him you will be returned.
