Surah Ar-Rum
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
الۤمّۤ ۚ١
Alif lām mīm.
[1]
Alif, Lam, Meem.
غُلِبَتِ الرُّوْمُۙ٢
Gulibatir-rūm(u).
[2]
The Byzantines have been defeated
فِيْٓ اَدْنَى الْاَرْضِ وَهُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ غَلَبِهِمْ سَيَغْلِبُوْنَۙ٣
Fī adnal-arḍi wa hum mim ba‘di galabihim sayaglibūn(a).
[3]
In the nearest land. But they, after their defeat, will overcome.
فِيْ بِضْعِ سِنِيْنَ ەۗ لِلّٰهِ الْاَمْرُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَمِنْۢ بَعْدُ ۗوَيَوْمَىِٕذٍ يَّفْرَحُ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَۙ٤
Fī biḍ‘i sinīn(a), lillāhil-amru min qablu wa mim ba‘d(u), wa yauma'iżiy yafraḥul-mu'minūn(a).
[4]
Within three to nine years. To Allah belongs the command before and after. And that day the believers will rejoice
بِنَصْرِ اللّٰهِ ۗيَنْصُرُ مَنْ يَّشَاۤءُۗ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيْزُ الرَّحِيْمُ٥
Binaṣrillāh(i), yanṣuru may yasyā'(u), wa huwal-‘azīzur-raḥīm(u).
[5]
In the victory of Allah. He gives victory to whom He wills, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
وَعْدَ اللّٰهِ ۗ لَا يُخْلِفُ اللّٰهُ وَعْدَهٗ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ٦
Wa‘dallāh(i), lā yukhlifullāhu wa‘dahū wa lākinna akṡaran-nāsi lā ya‘lamūn(a).
[6]
[It is] the promise of Allah. Allah does not fail in His promise, but most of the people do not know.
يَعْلَمُوْنَ ظَاهِرًا مِّنَ الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَاۖ وَهُمْ عَنِ الْاٰخِرَةِ هُمْ غٰفِلُوْنَ٧
Ya‘lamūna ẓāhiram minal-ḥayātid-dun-yā, wa hum ‘anil-ākhirati hum gāfilūn(a).
[7]
They know what is apparent of the worldly life, but they, of the Hereafter, are unaware.
اَوَلَمْ يَتَفَكَّرُوْا فِيْٓ اَنْفُسِهِمْ ۗ مَا خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ اِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَاَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّىۗ وَاِنَّ كَثِيْرًا مِّنَ النَّاسِ بِلِقَاۤئِ رَبِّهِمْ لَكٰفِرُوْنَ٨
Awalam yatafakkarū fī anfusihim, mā khalaqallāhus-samāwāti wal-arḍa wa mā bainahumā illā bil-ḥaqqi wa ajalim musammā(n), wa inna kaṡīram minan-nāsi biliqā'i rabbihim lakāfirūn(a).
[8]
Do they not contemplate within themselves? Allah has not created the heavens and the earth and what is between them except in truth and for a specified term. And indeed, many of the people, in [the matter of] the meeting with their Lord, are disbelievers.
اَوَلَمْ يَسِيْرُوْا فِى الْاَرْضِ فَيَنْظُرُوْا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْۗ كَانُوْٓا اَشَدَّ مِنْهُمْ قُوَّةً وَّاَثَارُوا الْاَرْضَ وَعَمَرُوْهَآ اَكْثَرَ مِمَّا عَمَرُوْهَا وَجَاۤءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنٰتِۗ فَمَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِيَظْلِمَهُمْ وَلٰكِنْ كَانُوْٓا اَنْفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُوْنَۗ٩
Awalam yasīrū fil-arḍi fayanẓurū kaifa kāna ‘āqibatul-lażīna min qablihim, kānū asyadda minhum quwwataw wa aṡārul-arḍa wa ‘amarūhā akṡara mimmā ‘amarūhā wa jā'athum rusuluhum bil-bayyināt(i), famā kānallāhu liyaẓlimahum wa lākin kānū anfusahum yaẓlimūn(a).
[9]
Have they not traveled through the earth and observed how was the end of those before them? They were greater than them in power, and they plowed the earth and built it up more than they have built it up, and their messengers came to them with clear evidences. And Allah would not ever have wronged them, but they were wronging themselves.
ثُمَّ كَانَ عَاقِبَةَ الَّذِيْنَ اَسَاۤءُوا السُّوْۤاٰىٓ اَنْ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَكَانُوْا بِهَا يَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ ࣖ١٠
Ṡumma kāna ‘āqibatal-lażīna asā'us-sū'ā an każżabū bi'āyātillāhi wa kānū bihā yastahzi'ūn(a).
[10]
Then the end of those who did evil was the worst [consequence] because they denied the signs of Allah and used to ridicule them.
اَللّٰهُ يَبْدَؤُا الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيْدُهٗ ثُمَّ اِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَ١١
Allāhu yabda'ul-khalqa ṡumma yu‘īduhū ṡumma ilaihi turja‘ūn(a).
[11]
Allah begins creation; then He will repeat it; then to Him you will be returned.
وَيَوْمَ تَقُوْمُ السَّاعَةُ يُبْلِسُ الْمُجْرِمُوْنَ١٢
Wa yauma taqūmus-sā‘atu yublisul-mujrimūn(a).
[12]
And the Day the Hour appears the criminals will be in despair.
وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَّهُمْ مِّنْ شُرَكَاۤىِٕهِمْ شُفَعٰۤؤُا وَكَانُوْا بِشُرَكَاۤىِٕهِمْ كٰفِرِيْنَ١٣
Wa lam yakul lahum min syurakā'ihim syufa‘ā'u wa kānū bisyurakā'ihim kāfirīn(a).
[13]
And there will not be for them among their [alleged] partners any intercessors, and they will [then] be disbelievers in their partners.
وَيَوْمَ تَقُوْمُ السَّاعَةُ يَوْمَىِٕذٍ يَّتَفَرَّقُوْنَ١٤
Wa yauma taqūmus-sā‘atu yauma'iżiy yatafarraqūn(a).
[14]
And the Day the Hour appears - that Day they will become separated.
فَاَمَّا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ فَهُمْ فِيْ رَوْضَةٍ يُّحْبَرُوْنَ١٥
Fa ammal-lażīna āmanū wa ‘amiluṣ-ṣāliḥāti fahum fī rauḍatiy yuḥbarūn(a).
[15]
And as for those who had believed and done righteous deeds, they will be in a garden [of Paradise], delighted.
وَاَمَّا الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَكَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِنَا وَلِقَاۤئِ الْاٰخِرَةِ فَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ فِى الْعَذَابِ مُحْضَرُوْنَ١٦
Wa ammal-lażīna kafarū wa każżabū bi'āyātinā wa liqā'il-ākhirati fa'ulā'ika fil-‘ażābi muḥḍarūn(a).
[16]
But as for those who disbelieved and denied Our verses and the meeting of the Hereafter, those will be brought into the punishment [to remain].
فَسُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ حِيْنَ تُمْسُوْنَ وَحِيْنَ تُصْبِحُوْنَ١٧
Fa subḥānallāhi ḥīna tumsūna wa ḥīna tuṣbiḥūn(a).
[17]
So exalted is Allah when you reach the evening and when you reach the morning.
وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَعَشِيًّا وَّحِيْنَ تُظْهِرُوْنَ١٨
Wa lahul-ḥamdu fis-samāwāti wal-arḍi wa ‘asyiyyaw wa ḥīna tuẓhirūn(a).
[18]
And to Him is [due all] praise throughout the heavens and the earth. And [exalted is He] at night and when you are at noon.
يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَيُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتَ مِنَ الْحَيِّ وَيُحْيِ الْاَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا ۗوَكَذٰلِكَ تُخْرَجُوْنَ ࣖ١٩
Yukhrijul-ḥayya minal-mayyiti wa yukhrijul-mayyita minal-ḥayyi wa yuḥyil-arḍa ba‘da mautihā, wa każālika tukhrajūn(a).
[19]
He brings the living out of the dead and brings the dead out of the living and brings to life the earth after its lifelessness. And thus will you be brought out.
وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖٓ اَنْ خَلَقَكُمْ مِّنْ تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ اِذَآ اَنْتُمْ بَشَرٌ تَنْتَشِرُوْنَ٢٠
Wa min āyātihī an khalaqakum min turābin ṡumma iżā antum basyarun tantasyirūn(a).
[20]
And of His signs is that He created you from dust; then, suddenly you were human beings dispersing [throughout the earth].
وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖٓ اَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُمْ مِّنْ اَنْفُسِكُمْ اَزْوَاجًا لِّتَسْكُنُوْٓا اِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُمْ مَّوَدَّةً وَّرَحْمَةً ۗاِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَّتَفَكَّرُوْنَ٢١
Wa min āyātihī an khalaqa lakum min anfusikum azwājal litaskunū ilaihā wa ja‘ala bainakum mawaddataw wa raḥmah(tan), inna fī żālika la'āyātil liqaumiy yatafakkarūn(a).
[21]
And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquillity in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.
وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖ خَلْقُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَاخْتِلَافُ اَلْسِنَتِكُمْ وَاَلْوَانِكُمْۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّلْعٰلِمِيْنَ٢٢
Wa min āyātihī khalqus-samāwāti wal-arḍi wakhtilāfu alsinatikum wa alwānikum, inna fī żālika la'āyātil lil-‘ālimīn(a).
[22]
And of His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and the diversity of your languages and your colors. Indeed in that are signs for those of knowledge.
وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖ مَنَامُكُمْ بِالَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَابْتِغَاۤؤُكُمْ مِّنْ فَضْلِهٖۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَّسْمَعُوْنَ٢٣
Wa min āyātihī manāmukum bil-laili wan-nahāri wabtigā'ukum min faḍlih(ī), inna fī żālika la'āyātil liqaumiy yasma‘ūn(a).
[23]
And of His signs is your sleep by night and day and your seeking of His bounty. Indeed in that are signs for a people who listen.
وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖ يُرِيْكُمُ الْبَرْقَ خَوْفًا وَّطَمَعًا وَّيُنَزِّلُ مِنَ السَّمَاۤءِ مَاۤءً فَيُحْيٖ بِهِ الْاَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَاۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَّعْقِلُوْنَ٢٤
Wa min āyātihī yurīkumul-barqa khaufaw wa ṭama‘aw wa yunazzilu minas-samā'i mā'an fa yuḥyī bihil-arḍa ba‘da mautihā, inna fī żālika la'āyātil liqaumiy ya‘qilūn(a).
[24]
And of His signs is [that] He shows you the lightning [causing] fear and aspiration, and He sends down rain from the sky by which He brings to life the earth after its lifelessness. Indeed in that are signs for a people who use reason.
وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖٓ اَنْ تَقُوْمَ السَّمَاۤءُ وَالْاَرْضُ بِاَمْرِهٖۗ ثُمَّ اِذَا دَعَاكُمْ دَعْوَةًۖ مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ اِذَآ اَنْتُمْ تَخْرُجُوْنَ٢٥
Wa min āyātihī an taqūmas-samā'u wal-arḍu bi'amrih(ī), ṡumma iżā da‘ākum da‘watam minal-arḍi iżā antum takhrujūn(a).
[25]
And of His signs is that the heaven and earth remain by His command. Then when He calls you with a [single] call from the earth, immediately you will come forth.
وَلَهٗ مَنْ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ كُلٌّ لَّهٗ قٰنِتُوْنَ٢٦
Wa lahū man fis-samāwāti wal-arḍ(i), kullul lahū qānitūn(a).
[26]
And to Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and earth. All are to Him devoutly obedient.
وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ يَبْدَؤُا الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيْدُهٗ وَهُوَ اَهْوَنُ عَلَيْهِۗ وَلَهُ الْمَثَلُ الْاَعْلٰى فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيْزُ الْحَكِيْمُ ࣖ٢٧
Wa huwal-lażī yabda'ul-khalqa ṡumma yu‘īduhū wa huwa ahwanu ‘alaih(i), wa lahul-maṡalul-a‘lā fis-samāwāti wal-arḍ(i), wa huwal-‘azīzul-ḥakīm(u).
[27]
And it is He who begins creation; then He repeats it, and that is [even] easier for Him. To Him belongs the highest attribute in the heavens and earth. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
ضَرَبَ لَكُمْ مَّثَلًا مِّنْ اَنْفُسِكُمْۗ هَلْ لَّكُمْ مِّنْ مَّا مَلَكَتْ اَيْمَانُكُمْ مِّنْ شُرَكَاۤءَ فِيْ مَا رَزَقْنٰكُمْ فَاَنْتُمْ فِيْهِ سَوَاۤءٌ تَخَافُوْنَهُمْ كَخِيْفَتِكُمْ اَنْفُسَكُمْۗ كَذٰلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الْاٰيٰتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَّعْقِلُوْنَ٢٨
Ḍaraba lakum maṡalam min anfusikum, hal lakum mim mā malakat aimānukum min syurakā'a fī mā razaqnākum fa'antum fīhi sawā'un takhāfūnahum kakhīfatikum anfusakum, każālika nufaṣṣilul-āyāti liqaumiy ya‘qilūn(a).
[28]
He presents to you an example from yourselves. Do you have among those whom your right hands possess any partners in what We have provided for you so that you are equal therein [and] would fear them as your fear of one another [within a partnership]? Thus do We detail the verses for a people who use reason.
بَلِ اتَّبَعَ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْٓا اَهْوَاۤءَهُمْ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍۗ فَمَنْ يَّهْدِيْ مَنْ اَضَلَّ اللّٰهُ ۗوَمَا لَهُمْ مِّنْ نّٰصِرِيْنَ٢٩
Balittaba‘al-lażīna ẓalamū ahwā'ahum bigairi ‘ilm(in), famay yahdī man aḍallallāh(u), wa mā lahum min nāṣirīn(a).
[29]
But those who wrong follow their [own] desires without knowledge. Then who can guide one whom Allah has sent astray? And for them there are no helpers.
فَاَقِمْ وَجْهَكَ لِلدِّيْنِ حَنِيْفًاۗ فِطْرَتَ اللّٰهِ الَّتِيْ فَطَرَ النَّاسَ عَلَيْهَاۗ لَا تَبْدِيْلَ لِخَلْقِ اللّٰهِ ۗذٰلِكَ الدِّيْنُ الْقَيِّمُۙ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَۙ٣٠
Fa aqim wajhaka lid-dīni ḥanīfā(n), fiṭratallāhil-latī faṭaran-nāsa ‘alaihā, lā tabdīla likhalqillāh(i), żālikad-dīnul-qayyim(u), wa lākinna akṡaran-nāsi lā ya‘lamūn(a).
[30]
So direct your face toward the religion, inclining to truth. [Adhere to] the fitrah of Allah upon which He has created [all] people. No change should there be in the creation of Allah. That is the correct religion, but most of the people do not know.
۞ مُنِيْبِيْنَ اِلَيْهِ وَاتَّقُوْهُ وَاَقِيْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَلَا تَكُوْنُوْا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَۙ٣١
Munībīna ilaihi wattaqūhu wa aqīmuṣ-ṣalāta wa lā takūnū minal-musyrikīn(a).
[31]
[Adhere to it], turning in repentance to Him, and fear Him and establish prayer and do not be of those who associate others with Allah
مِنَ الَّذِيْنَ فَرَّقُوْا دِيْنَهُمْ وَكَانُوْا شِيَعًا ۗ كُلُّ حِزْبٍۢ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ فَرِحُوْنَ٣٢
Minal-lażīna farraqū dīnahum wa kānū syiya‘ā(n), kullu ḥizbim bimā ladaihim fariḥūn(a).
[32]
[Or] of those who have divided their religion and become sects, every faction rejoicing in what it has.
وَاِذَا مَسَّ النَّاسَ ضُرٌّ دَعَوْا رَبَّهُمْ مُّنِيْبِيْنَ اِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ اِذَآ اَذَاقَهُمْ مِّنْهُ رَحْمَةً اِذَا فَرِيْقٌ مِّنْهُمْ بِرَبِّهِمْ يُشْرِكُوْنَۙ٣٣
Wa iżā massan-nāsa ḍurrun da‘au rabbahum munībīna ilaihi ṡumma iżā ażāqahum minhu raḥmatan iżā farīqum minhum birabbihim yusyrikūn(a).
[33]
And when adversity touches the people, they call upon their Lord, turning in repentance to Him. Then when He lets them taste mercy from Him, at once a party of them associate others with their Lord,
لِيَكْفُرُوْا بِمَآ اٰتَيْنٰهُمْۗ فَتَمَتَّعُوْاۗ فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُوْنَ٣٤
Liyakfurū bimā ātaināhum, fatamatta‘ū, fasaufa ta‘lamūn(a).
[34]
So that they will deny what We have granted them. Then enjoy yourselves, for you are going to know.
اَمْ اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ سُلْطٰنًا فَهُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِمَا كَانُوْا بِهٖ يُشْرِكُوْنَ٣٥
Am anzalnā ‘alaihim sulṭānan fahuwa yatakallamu bimā kānū bihī yusyrikūn(a).
[35]
Or have We sent down to them an authority, and it speaks of what they were associating with Him?
وَاِذَآ اَذَقْنَا النَّاسَ رَحْمَةً فَرِحُوْا بِهَاۗ وَاِنْ تُصِبْهُمْ سَيِّئَةٌ ۢبِمَا قَدَّمَتْ اَيْدِيْهِمْ اِذَا هُمْ يَقْنَطُوْنَ٣٦
Wa iżā ażaqnan-nāsa raḥmatan fariḥū bihā, wa in tuṣibhum sayyi'atum bimā qaddamat aidīhim iżā hum yaqnaṭūn(a).
[36]
And when We let the people taste mercy, they rejoice therein, but if evil afflicts them for what their hands have put forth, immediately they despair.
اَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا اَنَّ اللّٰهَ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَّشَاۤءُ وَيَقْدِرُۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يُّؤْمِنُوْنَ٣٧
Awalam yarau annallāha yabsuṭur-rizqa limay yasyā'u wa yaqdir(u), inna fī żālika la'āyātil liqaumiy yu'minūn(a).
[37]
Do they not see that Allah extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it]? Indeed, in that are signs for a people who believe.
فَاٰتِ ذَا الْقُرْبٰى حَقَّهٗ وَالْمِسْكِيْنَ وَابْنَ السَّبِيْلِۗ ذٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ لِّلَّذِيْنَ يُرِيْدُوْنَ وَجْهَ اللّٰهِ ۖوَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُوْنَ٣٨
Fa āti żal-qurbā ḥaqqahū wal-miskīna wabnas-sabīl(i), żālika khairul lil-lażīna yurīdūna wajhallāh(i), wa ulā'ika humul-mufliḥūn(a).
[38]
So give the relative his right, as well as the needy and the traveler. That is best for those who desire the countenance of Allah, and it is they who will be the successful.
وَمَآ اٰتَيْتُمْ مِّنْ رِّبًا لِّيَرْبُوَا۟ فِيْٓ اَمْوَالِ النَّاسِ فَلَا يَرْبُوْا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ ۚوَمَآ اٰتَيْتُمْ مِّنْ زَكٰوةٍ تُرِيْدُوْنَ وَجْهَ اللّٰهِ فَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ الْمُضْعِفُوْنَ٣٩
Wa mā ātaitum mir ribal liyarbuwa fī amwālin-nāsi falā yarbū ‘indallāh(i), wa mā ātaitum min zakātin turīdūna wajhallāhi fa'ulā'ika humul-muḍ‘ifūn(a).
[39]
And whatever you give for interest to increase within the wealth of people will not increase with Allah. But what you give in zakah, desiring the countenance of Allah - those are the multipliers.
اَللّٰهُ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ رَزَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيْتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيْكُمْۗ هَلْ مِنْ شُرَكَاۤىِٕكُمْ مَّنْ يَّفْعَلُ مِنْ ذٰلِكُمْ مِّنْ شَيْءٍۗ سُبْحٰنَهٗ وَتَعٰلٰى عَمَّا يُشْرِكُوْنَ ࣖ٤٠
Allāhul-lażī khalaqakum ṡumma razaqakum ṡumma yumītukum ṡumma yuḥyīkum, hal min syurakā'ikum may yaf‘alu min żālikum min syai'(in), subḥānahū wa ta‘ālā ‘ammā yusyrikūn(a).
[40]
Allah is the one who created you, then provided for you, then will cause you to die, and then will give you life. Are there any of your "partners" who does anything of that? Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him.
ظَهَرَ الْفَسَادُ فِى الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ اَيْدِى النَّاسِ لِيُذِيْقَهُمْ بَعْضَ الَّذِيْ عَمِلُوْا لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُوْنَ٤١
Żaharal-fasādu fil-barri wal-baḥri bimā kasabat aidin-nāsi liyużīqahum ba‘ḍal-lażī ‘amilū la‘allahum yarji‘ūn(a).
[41]
Corruption has appeared throughout the land and sea by [reason of] what the hands of people have earned so He may let them taste part of [the consequence of] what they have done that perhaps they will return [to righteousness].
قُلْ سِيْرُوْا فِى الْاَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوْا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلُۗ كَانَ اَكْثَرُهُمْ مُّشْرِكِيْنَ٤٢
Qul sīrū fil-arḍi fanẓurū kaifa kāna ‘āqibatul-lażīna min qabl(u), kāna akṡaruhum musyrikīn(a).
[42]
Say, [O Muhammad], "Travel through the land and observe how was the end of those before. Most of them were associators [of others with Allah].
فَاَقِمْ وَجْهَكَ لِلدِّيْنِ الْقَيِّمِ مِنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ يَّأْتِيَ يَوْمٌ لَّا مَرَدَّ لَهٗ مِنَ اللّٰهِ يَوْمَىِٕذٍ يَّصَّدَّعُوْنَ٤٣
Fa aqim wajhaka lid-dīnil-qayyimi min qabli ay ya'tiya yaumul lā maradda lahū minallāhi yauma'iżiy yaṣṣadda‘ūn(a).
[43]
So direct your face toward the correct religion before a Day comes from Allah of which there is no repelling. That Day, they will be divided.
مَنْ كَفَرَ فَعَلَيْهِ كُفْرُهٗۚ وَمَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَلِاَنْفُسِهِمْ يَمْهَدُوْنَۙ٤٤
Man kafara fa ‘alaihi kufruh(ū), wa man ‘amila ṣāliḥan fali'anfusihim yamhadūn(a).
[44]
Whoever disbelieves - upon him is [the consequence of] his disbelief. And whoever does righteousness - they are for themselves preparing,
لِيَجْزِيَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ مِنْ فَضْلِهٖۗ اِنَّهٗ لَا يُحِبُّ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ٤٥
Liyajziyal-lażīna āmanū wa ‘amiluṣ-ṣāliḥāti min faḍlih(ī), innahū lā yuḥibbul-kāfirīn(a).
[45]
That He may reward those who have believed and done righteous deeds out of His bounty. Indeed, He does not like the disbelievers.
وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖٓ اَنْ يُّرْسِلَ الرِّيٰحَ مُبَشِّرٰتٍ وَّلِيُذِيْقَكُمْ مِّنْ رَّحْمَتِهٖ وَلِتَجْرِيَ الْفُلْكُ بِاَمْرِهٖ وَلِتَبْتَغُوْا مِنْ فَضْلِهٖ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ٤٦
Wa min āyātihī ay yursilar-riyāḥa mubasysyirātiw wa liyużīqakum mir raḥmatihī wa litajriyal-fulka bi'amrihī wa litabtagū min faḍlihī wa la‘allakum tasykurūn(a).
[46]
And of His signs is that He sends the winds as bringers of good tidings and to let you taste His mercy and so the ships may sail at His command and so you may seek of His bounty, and perhaps you will be grateful.
وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ رُسُلًا اِلٰى قَوْمِهِمْ فَجَاۤءُوْهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنٰتِ فَانْتَقَمْنَا مِنَ الَّذِيْنَ اَجْرَمُوْاۗ وَكَانَ حَقًّاۖ عَلَيْنَا نَصْرُ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ٤٧
Wa laqad arsalnā min qablika rusulan ilā qaumihim fajā'ūhum bil-bayyināti fantaqamnā minal-lażīna ajramū, wa kāna ḥaqqan ‘alainā naṣrul-mu'minīn(a).
[47]
And We have already sent messengers before you to their peoples, and they came to them with clear evidences; then We took retribution from those who committed crimes, and incumbent upon Us was support of the believers.
اَللّٰهُ الَّذِيْ يُرْسِلُ الرِّيٰحَ فَتُثِيْرُ سَحَابًا فَيَبْسُطُهٗ فِى السَّمَاۤءِ كَيْفَ يَشَاۤءُ وَيَجْعَلُهٗ كِسَفًا فَتَرَى الْوَدْقَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ خِلٰلِهٖۚ فَاِذَآ اَصَابَ بِهٖ مَنْ يَّشَاۤءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖٓ اِذَا هُمْ يَسْتَبْشِرُوْنَۚ٤٨
Allāhul-lażī yursilur-riyāḥa fatuṡīru saḥāban fayabsuṭuhū fis-samā'i kaifa yasyā'u wa yaj‘aluhū kisafan fataral-wadqa yakhruju min khilālih(ī), fa'iżā aṣāba bihī may yasyā'u min ‘ibādihī iżā hum yastabsyirūn(a).
[48]
It is Allah who sends the winds, and they stir the clouds and spread them in the sky however He wills, and He makes them fragments so you see the rain emerge from within them. And when He causes it to fall upon whom He wills of His servants, immediately they rejoice
وَاِنْ كَانُوْا مِنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ يُّنَزَّلَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّنْ قَبْلِهٖ لَمُبْلِسِيْنَۚ٤٩
Wa in kānū min qabli ay yunazzala ‘alaihim min qablihī lamublisīn(a).
[49]
Although they were, before it was sent down upon them - before that, in despair.
فَانْظُرْ اِلٰٓى اٰثٰرِ رَحْمَتِ اللّٰهِ كَيْفَ يُحْيِ الْاَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَاۗ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ لَمُحْيِ الْمَوْتٰىۚ وَهُوَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ٥٠
Fanẓur ilā āṡāri raḥmatillāhi kaifa yuḥyil-arḍa ba‘da mautihā, inna żālika lamuḥyil-mautā, wa huwa ‘alā kulli syai'in qadīr(un).
[50]
So observe the effects of the mercy of Allah - how He gives life to the earth after its lifelessness. Indeed, that [same one] will give life to the dead, and He is over all things competent.
وَلَىِٕنْ اَرْسَلْنَا رِيْحًا فَرَاَوْهُ مُصْفَرًّا لَّظَلُّوْا مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ يَكْفُرُوْنَ٥١
Wa la'in arsalnā rīḥan fara'auhu muṣfarral laẓallū mim ba‘dihī yakfurūn(a).
[51]
But if We should send a [bad] wind and they saw [their crops] turned yellow, they would remain thereafter disbelievers.
فَاِنَّكَ لَا تُسْمِعُ الْمَوْتٰى وَلَا تُسْمِعُ الصُّمَّ الدُّعَاۤءَ اِذَا وَلَّوْا مُدْبِرِيْنَ٥٢
Fa innaka lā tusmi‘ul-mautā wa lā tusmi‘uṣ-ṣummad-du‘ā'a iżā wallau mudbirīn(a).
[52]
So indeed, you will not make the dead hear, nor will you make the deaf hear the call when they turn their backs, retreating.
وَمَآ اَنْتَ بِهٰدِ الْعُمْيِ عَنْ ضَلٰلَتِهِمْۗ اِنْ تُسْمِعُ اِلَّا مَنْ يُّؤْمِنُ بِاٰيٰتِنَا فَهُمْ مُّسْلِمُوْنَ ࣖ٥٣
Wa mā anta bihādil-‘umyi ‘an ḍalālatihim, in tusmi‘u illā may yu'minu bi'āyātinā fahum muslimūn(a).
[53]
And you cannot guide the blind away from their error. You will only make hear those who believe in Our verses so they are Muslims [in submission to Allah].
۞ اَللّٰهُ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَكُمْ مِّنْ ضَعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ ضَعْفٍ قُوَّةً ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ ضَعْفًا وَّشَيْبَةً ۗيَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاۤءُۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيْمُ الْقَدِيْرُ٥٤
Allāhul-lażī khalaqakum min ḍa‘fin ṡumma ja‘ala mim ba‘di ḍa‘fin quwwatan ṡumma ja‘ala mim ba‘di quwwatin ḍa‘faw wa syaibah(tan), yakhluqu mā yasyā'(u), wa huwal-‘alīmul-qadīr(u).
[54]
Allah is the one who created you from weakness, then made after weakness strength, then made after strength weakness and white hair. He creates what He wills, and He is the Knowing, the Competent.
وَيَوْمَ تَقُوْمُ السَّاعَةُ يُقْسِمُ الْمُجْرِمُوْنَ ەۙ مَا لَبِثُوْا غَيْرَ سَاعَةٍ ۗ كَذٰلِكَ كَانُوْا يُؤْفَكُوْنَ٥٥
Wa yauma taqūmus-sā‘atu yuqsimul-mujrimūn(a), mā labiṡū gaira sā‘ah(tin), każālika kānū yu'fakūn(a).
[55]
And the Day the Hour appears the criminals will swear they had remained but an hour. Thus they were deluded.
وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ وَالْاِيْمَانَ لَقَدْ لَبِثْتُمْ فِيْ كِتٰبِ اللّٰهِ اِلٰى يَوْمِ الْبَعْثِۖ فَهٰذَا يَوْمُ الْبَعْثِ وَلٰكِنَّكُمْ كُنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ٥٦
Wa qālal-lażīna ūtul-‘ilma wal-īmāna laqad labiṡtum fī kitābillāhi ilā yaumil-ba‘ṡ(i), fa hāżā yaumul-baṡi wa lākinnakum kuntum lā ta‘lamūn(a).
[56]
But those who were given knowledge and faith will say, "You remained the extent of Allah 's decree until the Day of Resurrection, and this is the Day of Resurrection, but you did not used to know."
فَيَوْمَىِٕذٍ لَّا يَنْفَعُ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا مَعْذِرَتُهُمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُسْتَعْتَبُوْنَ٥٧
Fa yauma'iżil lā yanfa‘ul-lażīna ẓalamū ma‘żiratuhum wa lā hum yusta‘tabūn(a).
[57]
So that Day, their excuse will not benefit those who wronged, nor will they be asked to appease [Allah].
وَلَقَدْ ضَرَبْنَا لِلنَّاسِ فِيْ هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنِ مِنْ كُلِّ مَثَلٍۗ وَلَىِٕنْ جِئْتَهُمْ بِاٰيَةٍ لَّيَقُوْلَنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اِنْ اَنْتُمْ اِلَّا مُبْطِلُوْنَ٥٨
Wa laqad ḍarabnā lin-nāsi fī hāżal-qur'āni min kulli maṡal(in), wa la'in ji'tahum bi'āyatil layaqūlannal-lażīna kafarū in antum illā mubṭilūn(a).
[58]
And We have certainly presented to the people in this Qur'an from every [kind of] example. But, [O Muhammad], if you should bring them a sign, the disbelievers will surely say, "You [believers] are but falsifiers."
كَذٰلِكَ يَطْبَعُ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى قُلُوْبِ الَّذِيْنَ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ٥٩
Każālika yaṭba‘ullāhu ‘alā qulūbil-lażīna lā ya‘lamūn(a).
[59]
Thus does Allah seal the hearts of those who do not know.
فَاصْبِرْ اِنَّ وَعْدَ اللّٰهِ حَقٌّ وَّلَا يَسْتَخِفَّنَّكَ الَّذِيْنَ لَا يُوْقِنُوْنَ ࣖ٦٠
Faṣbir inna wa‘dallāhi ḥaqquw wa lā yastakhiffannakal-lażīna lā yūqinūn(a).
[60]
So be patient. Indeed, the promise of Allah is truth. And let them not disquiet you who are not certain [in faith].
