Surah Saba’
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِيْ لَهٗ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الْاَرْضِ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِى الْاٰخِرَةِۗ وَهُوَ الْحَكِيْمُ الْخَبِيْرُ١
Al-ḥamdu lillāhil-lażī lahū mā fis-samāwāti wa mā fil-arḍi wa lahul-ḥamdu fil-ākhirah(ti), wa huwal-ḥakīmul-khabīr(u).
[1]
[All] praise is [due] to Allah, to whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth, and to Him belongs [all] praise in the Hereafter. And He is the Wise, the Acquainted.
يَعْلَمُ مَا يَلِجُ فِى الْاَرْضِ وَمَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا وَمَا يَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاۤءِ وَمَا يَعْرُجُ فِيْهَاۗ وَهُوَ الرَّحِيْمُ الْغَفُوْرُ٢
Ya‘lamu mā yaliju fil-arḍi wa mā yakhruju minhā wa mā yanzilu minas-samā'i wa mā ya‘ruju fīhā, wa huwar-raḥīmul-gafūr(u).
[2]
He knows what penetrates into the earth and what emerges from it and what descends from the heaven and what ascends therein. And He is the Merciful, the Forgiving.
وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَا تَأْتِيْنَا السَّاعَةُ ۗقُلْ بَلٰى وَرَبِّيْ لَتَأْتِيَنَّكُمْۙ عٰلِمِ الْغَيْبِۙ لَا يَعْزُبُ عَنْهُ مِثْقَالُ ذَرَّةٍ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَلَا فِى الْاَرْضِ وَلَآ اَصْغَرُ مِنْ ذٰلِكَ وَلَآ اَكْبَرُ اِلَّا فِيْ كِتٰبٍ مُّبِيْنٍۙ٣
Wa qālal-lażīna kafarū lā ta'tīnas-sā‘ah(tu), qul balā wa rabbī lata'tiyannakum, ‘ālimul-gaib(i), lā ya‘zubu ‘anhu miṡqālu żarratin fis-samāwāti wa lā fil-arḍi wa lā aṣgaru min żālika wa lā akbaru illā fī kitābim mubīn(in).
[3]
But those who disbelieve say, "The Hour will not come to us." Say, "Yes, by my Lord, it will surely come to you. [Allah is] the Knower of the unseen." Not absent from Him is an atom's weight within the heavens or within the earth or [what is] smaller than that or greater, except that it is in a clear register -
لِّيَجْزِيَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَّرِزْقٌ كَرِيْمٌ٤
Liyajziyal-lażīna āmanū wa ‘amiluṣ-ṣāliḥāt(i), ulā'ika lahum magfiratuw wa rizqun karīm(un).
[4]
That He may reward those who believe and do righteous deeds. Those will have forgiveness and noble provision.
وَالَّذِيْنَ سَعَوْ فِيْٓ اٰيٰتِنَا مُعٰجِزِيْنَ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مِّنْ رِّجْزٍ اَلِيْمٌ٥
Wal-lażīna sa‘au fī āyātinā mu‘ājizīna ulā'ika lahum ‘ażābum mir rijzin alīm(un).
[5]
But those who strive against Our verses [seeking] to cause failure - for them will be a painful punishment of foul nature.
وَيَرَى الَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ الَّذِيْٓ اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ هُوَ الْحَقَّۙ وَيَهْدِيْٓ اِلٰى صِرَاطِ الْعَزِيْزِ الْحَمِيْدِ٦
Wa yaral-lażīna ūtul-‘ilmal-lażī unzila ilaika mir rabbika huwal-ḥaqq(a), wa yahdī ilā ṣirāṭil-‘azīzil-ḥamīd(i).
[6]
And those who have been given knowledge see that what is revealed to you from your Lord is the truth, and it guides to the path of the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy.
وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا هَلْ نَدُلُّكُمْ عَلٰى رَجُلٍ يُّنَبِّئُكُمْ اِذَا مُزِّقْتُمْ كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍۙ اِنَّكُمْ لَفِيْ خَلْقٍ جَدِيْدٍۚ٧
Wa qālal-lażīna kafarū hal nadullukum ‘alā rajuliy yunabbi'ukum iżā muzziqtum kulla mumazzaq(in), innakum lafī khalqin jadīd(in).
[7]
But those who disbelieve say, "Shall we direct you to a man who will inform you [that] when you have disintegrated in complete disintegration, you will [then] be [recreated] in a new creation?
اَفْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا اَمْ بِهٖ جِنَّةٌ ۗبَلِ الَّذِيْنَ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ فِى الْعَذَابِ وَالضَّلٰلِ الْبَعِيْدِ٨
Aftarā ‘alallāhi każiban am bihī jinnah(tun), balil-lażīna lā yu'minūna bil-ākhirati fil-‘ażābi waḍ-ḍalālil-ba‘īd(i).
[8]
Has he invented about Allah a lie or is there in him madness?" Rather, they who do not believe in the Hereafter will be in the punishment and [are in] extreme error.
اَفَلَمْ يَرَوْا اِلٰى مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ مِّنَ السَّمَاۤءِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ اِنْ نَّشَأْ نَخْسِفْ بِهِمُ الْاَرْضَ اَوْ نُسْقِطْ عَلَيْهِمْ كِسَفًا مِّنَ السَّمَاۤءِۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيَةً لِّكُلِّ عَبْدٍ مُّنِيْبٍ ࣖ٩
Afalam yarau ilā mā baina aidīhim wa mā khalfahum minas-samā'i wal-arḍ(i), in nasya' nakhsif bihimul-arḍa au nusqiṭ ‘alaihim kisafam minas-samā'(i), inna fī żālika la'āyatal likulli ‘abdim munīb(in).
[9]
Then, do they not look at what is before them and what is behind them of the heaven and earth? If We should will, We could cause the earth to swallow them or [could] let fall upon them fragments from the sky. Indeed in that is a sign for every servant turning back [to Allah].
۞ وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا دَاوٗدَ مِنَّا فَضْلًاۗ يٰجِبَالُ اَوِّبِيْ مَعَهٗ وَالطَّيْرَ ۚوَاَلَنَّا لَهُ الْحَدِيْدَۙ١٠
Wa laqad ātainā dāwūda minnā faḍlā(n), yā jibālu awwibī ma‘ahū waṭ-ṭair(a), wa alannā lahul-ḥadīd(a).
[10]
And We certainly gave David from Us bounty. [We said], "O mountains, repeat [Our] praises with him, and the birds [as well]." And We made pliable for him iron,
اَنِ اعْمَلْ سٰبِغٰتٍ وَّقَدِّرْ فِى السَّرْدِ وَاعْمَلُوْا صَالِحًاۗ اِنِّيْ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِيْرٌ١١
Ani‘mal sābigātiw wa qaddir fis-sardi wa‘malū ṣāliḥā(n), innī bimā ta‘malūna baṣīr(un).
[11]
[Commanding him], "Make full coats of mail and calculate [precisely] the links, and work [all of you] righteousness. Indeed I, of what you do, am Seeing."
وَلِسُلَيْمٰنَ الرِّيْحَ غُدُوُّهَا شَهْرٌ وَّرَوَاحُهَا شَهْرٌۚ وَاَسَلْنَا لَهٗ عَيْنَ الْقِطْرِۗ وَمِنَ الْجِنِّ مَنْ يَّعْمَلُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ بِاِذْنِ رَبِّهٖۗ وَمَنْ يَّزِغْ مِنْهُمْ عَنْ اَمْرِنَا نُذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ السَّعِيْرِ١٢
Wa lisulaimānar-rīḥa guduwwuhā syahruw wa rawāḥuhā syahr(un), wa asalnā lahū ‘ainal-qiṭr(i), wa minal-jinni may ya‘malu baina yadaihi bi'iżni rabbih(ī), wa may yazig minhum ‘an amrinā nużiqhu min ‘ażābis-sa‘īr(i).
[12]
And to Solomon [We subjected] the wind - its morning [journey was that of] a month - and its afternoon [journey was that of] a month, and We made flow for him a spring of [liquid] copper. And among the jinn were those who worked for him by the permission of his Lord. And whoever deviated among them from Our command - We will make him taste of the punishment of the Blaze.
يَعْمَلُوْنَ لَهٗ مَا يَشَاۤءُ مِنْ مَّحَارِيْبَ وَتَمَاثِيْلَ وَجِفَانٍ كَالْجَوَابِ وَقُدُوْرٍ رّٰسِيٰتٍۗ اِعْمَلُوْٓا اٰلَ دَاوٗدَ شُكْرًا ۗوَقَلِيْلٌ مِّنْ عِبَادِيَ الشَّكُوْرُ١٣
Ya‘malūna lahū mā yasyā'u mim maḥārība wa tamāṡīla wa jifānin kal-jawābi wa qudūrir-rāsiyāt(in), i‘malū āla dāwūda syukrā(n), wa qalīlum min ‘ibādiyasy-syakūr(u).
[13]
They made for him what he willed of elevated chambers, statues, bowls like reservoirs, and stationary kettles. [We said], "Work, O family of David, in gratitude." And few of My servants are grateful.
فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتَ مَا دَلَّهُمْ عَلٰى مَوْتِهٖٓ اِلَّا دَاۤبَّةُ الْاَرْضِ تَأْكُلُ مِنْسَاَتَهٗ ۚفَلَمَّا خَرَّ تَبَيَّنَتِ الْجِنُّ اَنْ لَّوْ كَانُوْا يَعْلَمُوْنَ الْغَيْبَ مَا لَبِثُوْا فِى الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِيْنِۗ١٤
Falammā qaḍainā ‘alaihil-mauta mā dallahum ‘alā mautihī illā dābbatul-arḍi ta'kulu minsa'atah(ū), falammā kharra tabayyanatil-jinnu allau kānū ya‘lamūnal-gaiba mā labiṡū fil-‘ażābil-muhīn(i).
[14]
And when We decreed for Solomon death, nothing indicated to the jinn his death except a creature of the earth eating his staff. But when he fell, it became clear to the jinn that if they had known the unseen, they would not have remained in humiliating punishment.
لَقَدْ كَانَ لِسَبَاٍ فِيْ مَسْكَنِهِمْ اٰيَةٌ ۚجَنَّتٰنِ عَنْ يَّمِيْنٍ وَّشِمَالٍ ەۗ كُلُوْا مِنْ رِّزْقِ رَبِّكُمْ وَاشْكُرُوْا لَهٗ ۗبَلْدَةٌ طَيِّبَةٌ وَّرَبٌّ غَفُوْرٌ١٥
Laqad kāna lisaba'in fī maskanihim āyah(tun), jannatāni ‘ay yamīniw wa syimāl(in), kulū mir rizqi rabbikum wasykurū lah(ū), baldatun ṭayyibatuw wa rabbun gafūr(un).
[15]
There was for [the tribe of] Saba' in their dwelling place a sign: two [fields of] gardens on the right and on the left. [They were told], "Eat from the provisions of your Lord and be grateful to Him. A good land [have you], and a forgiving Lord."
فَاَعْرَضُوْا فَاَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ سَيْلَ الْعَرِمِ وَبَدَّلْنٰهُمْ بِجَنَّتَيْهِمْ جَنَّتَيْنِ ذَوَاتَيْ اُكُلٍ خَمْطٍ وَّاَثْلٍ وَّشَيْءٍ مِّنْ سِدْرٍ قَلِيْلٍ١٦
Fa a‘raḍū fa arsalnā ‘alaihim sailal-‘arimi wa baddalnāhum bijannataihim jannataini żawātai ukulin khamṭiw wa aṡliw wa syai'im min sidrin qalīl(in).
[16]
But they turned away [refusing], so We sent upon them the flood of the dam, and We replaced their two [fields of] gardens with gardens of bitter fruit, tamarisks and something of sparse lote trees.
ذٰلِكَ جَزَيْنٰهُمْ بِمَا كَفَرُوْاۗ وَهَلْ نُجٰزِيْٓ اِلَّا الْكَفُوْرَ١٧
Żālika jazaināhum bimā kafarū, wa hal nujāzī illal-kafūr(a).
[17]
[By] that We repaid them because they disbelieved. And do We [thus] repay except the ungrateful?
وَجَعَلْنَا بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْقُرَى الَّتِيْ بٰرَكْنَا فِيْهَا قُرًى ظَاهِرَةً وَّقَدَّرْنَا فِيْهَا السَّيْرَۗ سِيْرُوْا فِيْهَا لَيَالِيَ وَاَيَّامًا اٰمِنِيْنَ١٨
Wa ja‘alnā bainahum wa bainal-qural-latī bāraknā fīhā quran ẓāhirataw wa qaddarnā fihas-sair(a), sīrū fīhā layāliya wa ayyāman āminīn(a).
[18]
And We placed between them and the cities which We had blessed [many] visible cities. And We determined between them the [distances of] journey, [saying], "Travel between them by night or day in safety."
فَقَالُوْا رَبَّنَا بٰعِدْ بَيْنَ اَسْفَارِنَا وَظَلَمُوْٓا اَنْفُسَهُمْ فَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَحَادِيْثَ وَمَزَّقْنٰهُمْ كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍ شَكُوْرٍ١٩
Fa qālū rabbanā bā‘id baina asfārinā wa ẓalamū anfusahum fa ja‘alnāhum aḥādīṡa wa mazzaqnāhum kulla mumazzaq(in), inna fī żālika la'āyātil likulli ṣabbārin syakūr(in).
[19]
But [insolently] they said, "Our Lord, lengthen the distance between our journeys," and wronged themselves, so We made them narrations and dispersed them in total dispersion. Indeed in that are signs for everyone patient and grateful.
وَلَقَدْ صَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِمْ اِبْلِيْسُ ظَنَّهٗ فَاتَّبَعُوْهُ اِلَّا فَرِيْقًا مِّنَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ٢٠
Wa laqad ṣaddaqa ‘alaihim iblīsu ẓannahū fattaba‘ūhu illā farīqam minal-mu'minīn(a).
[20]
And Iblees had already confirmed through them his assumption, so they followed him, except for a party of believers.
وَمَا كَانَ لَهٗ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّنْ سُلْطَانٍ اِلَّا لِنَعْلَمَ مَنْ يُّؤْمِنُ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ مِمَّنْ هُوَ مِنْهَا فِيْ شَكٍّ ۗوَرَبُّكَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَفِيْظٌ ࣖ٢١
Wa mā kāna lahū ‘alaihim min sulṭānin illā lina‘lama may yu'minu bil-ākhirati mimman huwa minhā fī syakk(in), wa rabbuka ‘alā kulli syai'in ḥafīẓ(un).
[21]
And he had over them no authority except [it was decreed] that We might make evident who believes in the Hereafter from who is thereof in doubt. And your Lord, over all things, is Guardian.
قُلِ ادْعُوا الَّذِيْنَ زَعَمْتُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِۚ لَا يَمْلِكُوْنَ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَلَا فِى الْاَرْضِ وَمَا لَهُمْ فِيْهِمَا مِنْ شِرْكٍ وَّمَا لَهٗ مِنْهُمْ مِّنْ ظَهِيْرٍ٢٢
Qulid‘ul-lażīna za‘amtum min dūnillāh(i), lā yamlikūna miṡqāla żarratin fis-samāwāti wa lā fil-arḍi wa mā lahum fīhimā min syirkiw wa mā lahū minhum min ẓahīr(in).
[22]
Say, [O Muhammad], "Invoke those you claim [as deities] besides Allah." They do not possess an atom's weight [of ability] in the heavens or on the earth, and they do not have therein any partnership [with Him], nor is there for Him from among them any assistant.
وَلَا تَنْفَعُ الشَّفَاعَةُ عِنْدَهٗٓ اِلَّا لِمَنْ اَذِنَ لَهٗ ۗحَتّٰىٓ اِذَا فُزِّعَ عَنْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ قَالُوْا مَاذَاۙ قَالَ رَبُّكُمْۗ قَالُوا الْحَقَّۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَبِيْرُ٢٣
Wa lā tanfa‘usy-syafā‘atu ‘indahū illā liman ażina lah(ū), ḥattā iżā fuzzi‘a ‘an qulūbihim qālū māżā, qāla rabbukum, qālul-ḥaqq(a), wa huwal-‘aliyyul-kabīr(u).
[23]
And intercession does not benefit with Him except for one whom He permits. [And those wait] until, when terror is removed from their hearts, they will say [to one another], "What has your Lord said?" They will say, "The truth." And He is the Most High, the Grand.
۞ قُلْ مَنْ يَّرْزُقُكُمْ مِّنَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ قُلِ اللّٰهُ ۙوَاِنَّآ اَوْ اِيَّاكُمْ لَعَلٰى هُدًى اَوْ فِيْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيْنٍ٢٤
Qul may yarzuqukum minas-samāwāti wal-arḍ(i), qulillāh(u), wa innā au iyyākum la‘alā hudan au fī ḍalālim mubīn(in).
[24]
Say, "Who provides for you from the heavens and the earth?" Say, "Allah. And indeed, we or you are either upon guidance or in clear error."
قُلْ لَّا تُسْـَٔلُوْنَ عَمَّآ اَجْرَمْنَا وَلَا نُسْـَٔلُ عَمَّا تَعْمَلُوْنَ٢٥
Qul lā tus'alūna ‘ammā ajramnā wa lā nus'alu ‘ammā ta‘malūn(a).
[25]
Say, "You will not be asked about what we committed, and we will not be asked about what you do."
قُلْ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَنَا رَبُّنَا ثُمَّ يَفْتَحُ بَيْنَنَا بِالْحَقِّۗ وَهُوَ الْفَتَّاحُ الْعَلِيْمُ٢٦
Qul yajma‘u bainanā rabbunā ṡumma yaftaḥu bainanā bil-ḥaqq(i), wa huwal-fattāḥul-‘alīm(u).
[26]
Say, "Our Lord will bring us together; then He will judge between us in truth. And He is the Knowing Judge."
قُلْ اَرُوْنِيَ الَّذِيْنَ اَلْحَقْتُمْ بِهٖ شُرَكَاۤءَ كَلَّا ۗبَلْ هُوَ اللّٰهُ الْعَزِيْزُ الْحَكِيْمُ٢٧
Qul arūniyal-lażīna alḥaqtum bihī syurakā'a kallā, bal huwallāhul-‘azīzul-ḥakīm(u).
[27]
Say, "Show me those whom you have attached to Him as partners. No! Rather, He [alone] is Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise."
وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنٰكَ اِلَّا كَاۤفَّةً لِّلنَّاسِ بَشِيْرًا وَّنَذِيْرًا وَّلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ٢٨
Wa mā arsalnāka illā kāffatal lin-nāsi basyīraw wa nażīraw wa lākinna akṡaran-nāsi lā ya‘lamūn(a).
[28]
And We have not sent you except comprehensively to mankind as a bringer of good tidings and a warner. But most of the people do not know.
وَيَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰى هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ٢٩
Wa yaqūlūna matā hāżal-wa‘du in kuntum ṣādiqīn(a).
[29]
And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful?"
قُلْ لَّكُمْ مِّيْعَادُ يَوْمٍ لَّا تَسْتَأْخِرُوْنَ عَنْهُ سَاعَةً وَّلَا تَسْتَقْدِمُوْنَ ࣖ٣٠
Qul lakum mī‘ādu yaumil lā tasta'khirūna ‘anhu sā‘ataw wa lā tastaqdimūn(a).
[30]
Say, "For you is the appointment of a Day [when] you will not remain thereafter an hour, nor will you precede [it]."
وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَنْ نُّؤْمِنَ بِهٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنِ وَلَا بِالَّذِيْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِۗ وَلَوْ تَرٰىٓ اِذِ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ مَوْقُوْفُوْنَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْۖ يَرْجِعُ بَعْضُهُمْ اِلٰى بَعْضِ ِۨالْقَوْلَۚ يَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ اسْتُضْعِفُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا لَوْلَآ اَنْتُمْ لَكُنَّا مُؤْمِنِيْنَ٣١
Wa qālal-lażīna kafarū lan nu'mina bihāżal-qur'āni wa lā bil-lażī baina yadaih(i), wa lau tarā iżiẓ-ẓālimūna mauqūfūna ‘inda rabbihim, yarji‘u ba‘ḍuhum ilā ba‘ḍinil-qaul(a), yaqūlul-lażīnastuḍ‘ifū lil-lażīnastakbarū lau lā antum lakunnā mu'minīn(a).
[31]
And those who disbelieve say, "We will never believe in this Qur'an nor in that before it." But if you could see when the wrongdoers are made to stand before their Lord, refuting each other's words... Those who were oppressed will say to those who were arrogant, "If not for you, we would have been believers."
قَالَ الَّذِيْنَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ اسْتُضْعِفُوْٓا اَنَحْنُ صَدَدْنٰكُمْ عَنِ الْهُدٰى بَعْدَ اِذْ جَاۤءَكُمْ بَلْ كُنْتُمْ مُّجْرِمِيْنَ٣٢
Qālal-lażīnastakbarū lil-lażīnastuḍ‘ifū anaḥnu ṣadadnākum ‘anil-hudā ba‘da iż jā'akum bal kuntum mujrimīn(a).
[32]
Those who were arrogant will say to those who were oppressed, "Did we avert you from guidance after it had come to you? Rather, you were criminals."
وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ اسْتُضْعِفُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا بَلْ مَكْرُ الَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ اِذْ تَأْمُرُوْنَنَآ اَنْ نَّكْفُرَ بِاللّٰهِ وَنَجْعَلَ لَهٗٓ اَنْدَادًا ۗوَاَسَرُّوا النَّدَامَةَ لَمَّا رَاَوُا الْعَذَابَۗ وَجَعَلْنَا الْاَغْلٰلَ فِيْٓ اَعْنَاقِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْاۗ هَلْ يُجْزَوْنَ اِلَّا مَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ٣٣
Wa qālal-lażīnastuḍ‘ifū lil-lażīnastakbarū bal makrul-laili wan-nahāri iż ta'murūnanā an nakfura billāhi wa naj‘ala lahū andādā(n), wa asarrun-nadāmata lammā ra'awul-‘ażāb(a), wa ja‘alnal-aglāla fī a‘nāqil-lażīna kafarū, hal yujzauna illā mā kānū ya‘malūn(a).
[33]
Those who were oppressed will say to those who were arrogant, "Rather, [it was your] conspiracy of night and day when you were ordering us to disbelieve in Allah and attribute to Him equals." But they will [all] confide regret when they see the punishment; and We will put shackles on the necks of those who disbelieved. Will they be recompensed except for what they used to do?
وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا فِيْ قَرْيَةٍ مِّنْ نَّذِيْرٍ اِلَّا قَالَ مُتْرَفُوْهَآ ۙاِنَّا بِمَآ اُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهٖ كٰفِرُوْنَ٣٤
Wa mā arsalnā min qaryatim min nażīrin illā qāla mutrafūhā, innā bimā ursiltum bihī kāfirūn(a).
[34]
And We did not send into a city any warner except that its affluent said, "Indeed we, in that with which you were sent, are disbelievers."
وَقَالُوْا نَحْنُ اَكْثَرُ اَمْوَالًا وَّاَوْلَادًاۙ وَّمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِيْنَ٣٥
Wa qālū naḥnu akṡaru amwālaw wa aulādā(n), wa mā naḥnu bimu‘ażżabīn(a).
[35]
And they said, "We are more [than the believers] in wealth and children, and we are not to be punished."
قُلْ اِنَّ رَبِّيْ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَّشَاۤءُ وَيَقْدِرُ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ ࣖ٣٦
Qul inna rabbī yabsuṭur-rizqa limay yasyā'u wa yaqdiru wa lākinna akṡaran-nāsi lā ya‘lamūn(a).
[36]
Say, "Indeed, my Lord extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it], but most of the people do not know."
وَمَآ اَمْوَالُكُمْ وَلَآ اَوْلَادُكُمْ بِالَّتِيْ تُقَرِّبُكُمْ عِنْدَنَا زُلْفٰىٓ اِلَّا مَنْ اٰمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًاۙ فَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ جَزَاۤءُ الضِّعْفِ بِمَا عَمِلُوْا وَهُمْ فِى الْغُرُفٰتِ اٰمِنُوْنَ٣٧
Wa mā amwālukum wa lā aulādukum bil-latī tuqarribukum ‘indanā zulfā illā man āmana wa ‘amila ṣāliḥā(n), fa'ulā'ika lahum jazā'uḍ-ḍi‘fi bimā ‘amilū wa hum fil-gurufāti āminūn(a).
[37]
And it is not your wealth or your children that bring you nearer to Us in position, but it is [by being] one who has believed and done righteousness. For them there will be the double reward for what they did, and they will be in the upper chambers [of Paradise], safe [and secure].
وَالَّذِيْنَ يَسْعَوْنَ فِيْٓ اٰيٰتِنَا مُعٰجِزِيْنَ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ فِى الْعَذَابِ مُحْضَرُوْنَ٣٨
Wal-lażīna yas‘auna fī āyātinā mu‘ājizīna ulā'ika fil-‘ażābi muḥḍarūn(a).
[38]
And the ones who strive against Our verses to cause [them] failure - those will be brought into the punishment [to remain].
قُلْ اِنَّ رَبِّيْ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَّشَاۤءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖ وَيَقْدِرُ لَهٗ ۗوَمَآ اَنْفَقْتُمْ مِّنْ شَيْءٍ فَهُوَ يُخْلِفُهٗ ۚوَهُوَ خَيْرُ الرّٰزِقِيْنَ٣٩
Qul inna rabbī yabsuṭur-rizqa limay yasyā'u min ‘ibādihī wa yaqdiru lah(ū), wa mā anfaqtum min syai'in fahuwa yukhlifuh(ū), wa huwa khairur-rāziqīn(a).
[39]
Say, "Indeed, my Lord extends provision for whom He wills of His servants and restricts [it] for him. But whatever thing you spend [in His cause] - He will compensate it; and He is the best of providers."
وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ جَمِيْعًا ثُمَّ يَقُوْلُ لِلْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةِ اَهٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ اِيَّاكُمْ كَانُوْا يَعْبُدُوْنَ٤٠
Wa yauma yaḥsyuruhum jamī‘an ṡumma yaqūlu lil-malā'ikati ahā'ulā'i iyyākum kānū ya‘budūn(a).
[40]
And [mention] the Day when He will gather them all and then say to the angels, "Did these [people] used to worship you?"
قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَكَ اَنْتَ وَلِيُّنَا مِنْ دُوْنِهِمْ ۚبَلْ كَانُوْا يَعْبُدُوْنَ الْجِنَّ اَكْثَرُهُمْ بِهِمْ مُّؤْمِنُوْنَ٤١
Qālū subḥānaka anta waliyyunā min dūnihim, bal kānū ya‘budūnal-jinna akṡaruhum bihim mu'minūn(a).
[41]
They will say, "Exalted are You! You, [O Allah], are our benefactor not them. Rather, they used to worship the jinn; most of them were believers in them."
فَالْيَوْمَ لَا يَمْلِكُ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ نَّفْعًا وَّلَا ضَرًّا ۗوَنَقُوْلُ لِلَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا ذُوْقُوْا عَذَابَ النَّارِ الَّتِيْ كُنْتُمْ بِهَا تُكَذِّبُوْنَ٤٢
Fal-yauma lā yamliku ba‘ḍukum liba‘ḍin naf‘aw wa ḍarrā(n), wa naqūlu lil-lażīna ẓalamū żūqū ‘ażāban-nāril-latī kuntum bihā tukażżibūn(a).
[42]
But today you do not hold for one another [the power of] benefit or harm, and We will say to those who wronged, "Taste the punishment of the Fire, which you used to deny."
وَاِذَا تُتْلٰى عَلَيْهِمْ اٰيٰتُنَا بَيِّنٰتٍ قَالُوْا مَا هٰذَآ اِلَّا رَجُلٌ يُّرِيْدُ اَنْ يَّصُدَّكُمْ عَمَّا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اٰبَاۤؤُكُمْ ۚوَقَالُوْا مَا هٰذَآ اِلَّآ اِفْكٌ مُّفْتَرًىۗ وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لِلْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَاۤءَهُمْۙ اِنْ هٰذَآ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ٤٣
Wa iżā tutlā ‘alaihim āyātunā bayyinātin qālū mā hāżā illā rajuluy yurīdu ay yaṣuddakum ‘ammā kāna ya‘budu ābā'ukum, wa qālū mā hāżā illā ifkum muftarā(n), wa qālal-lażīna kafarū lil-ḥaqqi lammā jā'ahum, in hāżā illā siḥrum mubīn(un).
[43]
And when our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, they say, "This is not but a man who wishes to avert you from that which your fathers were worshipping." And they say, "This is not except a lie invented." And those who disbelieve say of the truth when it has come to them, "This is not but obvious magic."
وَمَآ اٰتَيْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ كُتُبٍ يَّدْرُسُوْنَهَا وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَآ اِلَيْهِمْ قَبْلَكَ مِنْ نَّذِيْرٍۗ٤٤
Wa mā ātaināhum min kutubiy yadrusūnahā wa mā arsalnā ilaihim qablaka min nażīr(in).
[44]
And We had not given them any scriptures which they could study, and We had not sent to them before you, [O Muhammad], any warner.
وَكَذَّبَ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْۙ وَمَا بَلَغُوْا مِعْشَارَ مَآ اٰتَيْنٰهُمْ فَكَذَّبُوْا رُسُلِيْۗ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ نَكِيْرِ ࣖ٤٥
Wa każżabal-lażīna min qablihim, wa mā balagū mi‘syāra mā ātaināhum fakażżabū rusulī, fakaifa kāna nakīr(i).
[45]
And those before them denied, and the people of Makkah have not attained a tenth of what We had given them. But the former peoples denied My messengers, so how [terrible] was My reproach.
۞ قُلْ اِنَّمَآ اَعِظُكُمْ بِوَاحِدَةٍۚ اَنْ تَقُوْمُوْا لِلّٰهِ مَثْنٰى وَفُرَادٰى ثُمَّ تَتَفَكَّرُوْاۗ مَا بِصَاحِبِكُمْ مِّنْ جِنَّةٍۗ اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا نَذِيْرٌ لَّكُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ عَذَابٍ شَدِيْدٍ٤٦
Qul innamā a‘iẓukum biwāḥidah(tin), an taqūmū lillāhi maṡnā wa furādā ṡumma tatafakkarū, mā biṣāḥibikum min jinnah(tin), in huwa illā nażīrul lakum baina yadai ‘ażābin syadīd(in).
[46]
Say, "I only advise you of one [thing] - that you stand for Allah, [seeking truth] in pairs and individually, and then give thought." There is not in your companion any madness. He is only a warner to you before a severe punishment.
قُلْ مَا سَاَلْتُكُمْ مِّنْ اَجْرٍ فَهُوَ لَكُمْۗ اِنْ اَجْرِيَ اِلَّا عَلَى اللّٰهِ ۚوَهُوَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيْدٌ٤٧
Qul mā sa'altukum min ajrin fahuwa lakum, in ajriya illā ‘alallāh(i), wa huwa ‘alā kulli syai'in syahīd(un).
[47]
Say, "Whatever payment I might have asked of you - it is yours. My payment is only from Allah, and He is, over all things, Witness."
قُلْ اِنَّ رَبِّيْ يَقْذِفُ بِالْحَقِّۚ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوْبِ٤٨
Qul inna rabbī yaqżifu bil-ḥaqq(i), ‘allāmul-guyūb(i).
[48]
Say, "Indeed, my Lord projects the truth. Knower of the unseen."
قُلْ جَاۤءَ الْحَقُّ وَمَا يُبْدِئُ الْبَاطِلُ وَمَا يُعِيْدُ٤٩
Qul jā'al-ḥaqqu wa mā yubdi'ul-bāṭilu wa mā yu‘īd(u).
[49]
Say, "The truth has come, and falsehood can neither begin [anything] nor repeat [it]."
قُلْ اِنْ ضَلَلْتُ فَاِنَّمَآ اَضِلُّ عَلٰى نَفْسِيْۚ وَاِنِ اهْتَدَيْتُ فَبِمَا يُوْحِيْٓ اِلَيَّ رَبِّيْۗ اِنَّهٗ سَمِيْعٌ قَرِيْبٌ٥٠
Qul in ḍalaltu fa'innamā aḍillu ‘alā nafsī, wa inihtadaitu fabimā yūḥī ilayya rabbī, innahū samī‘un qarīb(un).
[50]
Say, "If I should err, I would only err against myself. But if I am guided, it is by what my Lord reveals to me. Indeed, He is Hearing and near."
وَلَوْ تَرٰىٓ اِذْ فَزِعُوْا فَلَا فَوْتَ وَاُخِذُوْا مِنْ مَّكَانٍ قَرِيْبٍۙ٥١
Wa lau tarā iż fazi‘ū falā fauta wa ukhiżū mim makānin qarīb(in).
[51]
And if you could see when they are terrified but there is no escape, and they will be seized from a place nearby.
وَّقَالُوْٓا اٰمَنَّا بِهٖۚ وَاَنّٰى لَهُمُ التَّنَاوُشُ مِنْ مَّكَانٍۢ بَعِيْدٍۚ٥٢
Wa qālū āmannā bih(ī), wa annā lahumut-tanāwusyu mim makānim ba‘īd(in).
[52]
And they will [then] say, "We believe in it!" But how for them will be the taking [of faith] from a place far away?
وَقَدْ كَفَرُوْا بِهٖ مِنْ قَبْلُۚ وَيَقْذِفُوْنَ بِالْغَيْبِ مِنْ مَّكَانٍۢ بَعِيْدٍۚ٥٣
Wa qad kafarū bihī min qabl(u), wa yaqżifūna bil-gaibi mim makānim ba‘īd(in).
[53]
And they had already disbelieved in it before and would assault the unseen from a place far away.
وَحِيْلَ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ مَا يَشْتَهُوْنَۙ كَمَا فُعِلَ بِاَشْيَاعِهِمْ مِّنْ قَبْلُۗ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا فِيْ شَكٍّ مُّرِيْبٍ ࣖ٥٤
Wa ḥīla bainahum wa baina mā yasytahūn(a), kamā fu‘ila bi'asy-yā‘ihim min qabl(u), innahum fī syakkim murīb(in).
[54]
And prevention will be placed between them and what they desire, as was done with their kind before. Indeed, they were in disquieting denial.
