Surah As-Saffat
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
وَالصّٰۤفّٰتِ صَفًّاۙ١
Waṣ-ṣāffāti ṣaffā(n).
[1]
By those [angels] lined up in rows
فَالزّٰجِرٰتِ زَجْرًاۙ٢
Faz-zājirāti zajrā(n).
[2]
And those who drive [the clouds]
فَالتّٰلِيٰتِ ذِكْرًاۙ٣
Fat-tāliyāti żikrā(n).
[3]
And those who recite the message,
اِنَّ اِلٰهَكُمْ لَوَاحِدٌۗ٤
Inna ilāhakum lawāḥid(un).
[4]
Indeed, your God is One,
رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَرَبُّ الْمَشَارِقِۗ٥
Rabbus-samāwāti wal-arḍi wa mā bainahumā wa rabbul-masyāriq(i).
[5]
Lord of the heavens and the earth and that between them and Lord of the sunrises.
اِنَّا زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاۤءَ الدُّنْيَا بِزِيْنَةِ ِۨالْكَوَاكِبِۙ٦
Innā zayyannas-samā'ad-dun-yā bizīnatinil-kawākib(i).
[6]
Indeed, We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment of stars
وَحِفْظًا مِّنْ كُلِّ شَيْطٰنٍ مَّارِدٍۚ٧
Wa ḥifẓam min kulli syaiṭānim mārid(in).
[7]
And as protection against every rebellious devil
لَا يَسَّمَّعُوْنَ اِلَى الْمَلَاِ الْاَعْلٰى وَيُقْذَفُوْنَ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍۖ٨
Lā yassammā‘ūna ilal-mala'il-a‘lā wa yuqżafūna min kulli jānib(in).
[8]
[So] they may not listen to the exalted assembly [of angels] and are pelted from every side,
دُحُوْرًا وَّلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَّاصِبٌ٩
Duḥūraw wa lahum ‘ażābuw wāṣib(un).
[9]
Repelled; and for them is a constant punishment,
اِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ الْخَطْفَةَ فَاَتْبَعَهٗ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ١٠
Illā man khaṭifal-khaṭfata fa'atba‘ahū syihābun ṡāqib(un).
[10]
Except one who snatches [some words] by theft, but they are pursued by a burning flame, piercing [in brightness].
فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ اَهُمْ اَشَدُّ خَلْقًا اَمْ مَّنْ خَلَقْنَا ۗاِنَّا خَلَقْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ طِيْنٍ لَّازِبٍ١١
Fastaftihim ahum asyaddu khalqan am man khalaqnā, innā khalaqnāhum min ṭīnil lāzib(in).
[11]
Then inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Are they a stronger [or more difficult] creation or those [others] We have created?" Indeed, We created men from sticky clay.
بَلْ عَجِبْتَ وَيَسْخَرُوْنَ ۖ١٢
Bal ‘ajibta wa yaskharūn(a).
[12]
But you wonder, while they mock,
وَاِذَا ذُكِّرُوْا لَا يَذْكُرُوْنَ ۖ١٣
Wa iżā żukkirū lā yażkurūn(a).
[13]
And when they are reminded, they remember not.
وَاِذَا رَاَوْا اٰيَةً يَّسْتَسْخِرُوْنَۖ١٤
Wa iżā ra'au āyatay yastaskhirūn(a).
[14]
And when they see a sign, they ridicule
وَقَالُوْٓا اِنْ هٰذَآ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ ۚ١٥
Wa qālū in hāżā illā siḥrum mubīn(un).
[15]
And say, "This is not but obvious magic.
ءَاِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَّعِظَامًا ءَاِنَّا لَمَبْعُوْثُوْنَۙ١٦
A'iżā mitnā wa kunnā turābaw wa ‘iẓāman a'innā lamab‘ūṡūn(a).
[16]
When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?
اَوَاٰبَاۤؤُنَا الْاَوَّلُوْنَۗ١٧
Awa ābā'unal-awwalūn(a).
[17]
And our forefathers [as well]?"
قُلْ نَعَمْ وَاَنْتُمْ دٰخِرُوْنَۚ١٨
Qul na‘am wa antum dākhirūn(a).
[18]
Say, "Yes, and you will be [rendered] contemptible."
فَاِنَّمَا هِيَ زَجْرَةٌ وَّاحِدَةٌ فَاِذَا هُمْ يَنْظُرُوْنَ١٩
Fa'innamā hiya zajratuw wāḥidatun fa'iżā hum yanẓurūn(a).
[19]
It will be only one shout, and at once they will be observing.
وَقَالُوْا يٰوَيْلَنَا هٰذَا يَوْمُ الدِّيْنِ٢٠
Wa qālū yā wailanā hāżā yaumud-dīn(i).
[20]
They will say, "O woe to us! This is the Day of Recompense."
هٰذَا يَوْمُ الْفَصْلِ الَّذِيْ كُنْتُمْ بِهٖ تُكَذِّبُوْنَ ࣖ٢١
Hāżā yaumul-faṣlil-lażī kuntum bihī tukażżibūn(a).
[21]
[They will be told], "This is the Day of Judgement which you used to deny."
اُحْشُرُوا الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا وَاَزْوَاجَهُمْ وَمَا كَانُوْا يَعْبُدُوْنَ ۙ٢٢
Uḥsyurul-lażīna ẓalamū wa azwājahum wa mā kānū ya‘budūn(a).
[22]
[The angels will be ordered], "Gather those who committed wrong, their kinds, and what they used to worship
مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ فَاهْدُوْهُمْ اِلٰى صِرَاطِ الْجَحِيْمِ٢٣
Min dūnillāhi fahdūhum ilā ṣirāṭil-jaḥīm(i).
[23]
Other than Allah, and guide them to the path of Hellfire
وَقِفُوْهُمْ اِنَّهُمْ مَّسْـُٔوْلُوْنَ ۙ٢٤
Waqifūhum innahum mas'ūlūn(a).
[24]
And stop them; indeed, they are to be questioned."
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنَاصَرُوْنَ٢٥
Mā lakum lā tanāṣarūn(a).
[25]
[They will be asked], "What is [wrong] with you? Why do you not help each other?"
بَلْ هُمُ الْيَوْمَ مُسْتَسْلِمُوْنَ٢٦
Bal humul-yauma mustaslimūn(a).
[26]
But they, that Day, are in surrender.
وَاَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰى بَعْضٍ يَّتَسَاۤءَلُوْنَ٢٧
Wa aqbala ba‘ḍuhum ‘alā ba‘ḍiy yatasā'alūn(a).
[27]
And they will approach one another blaming each other.
قَالُوْٓا اِنَّكُمْ كُنْتُمْ تَأْتُوْنَنَا عَنِ الْيَمِيْنِ٢٨
Qālū innakum kuntum ta'tūnanā ‘anil-yamīn(i).
[28]
They will say, "Indeed, you used to come at us from the right."
قَالُوْا بَلْ لَّمْ تَكُوْنُوْا مُؤْمِنِيْنَۚ٢٩
Qālū bal lam takūnū mu'minīn(a).
[29]
The oppressors will say, "Rather, you [yourselves] were not believers,
وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا عَلَيْكُمْ مِّنْ سُلْطٰنٍۚ بَلْ كُنْتُمْ قَوْمًا طٰغِيْنَ٣٠
Wa mā kāna lanā ‘alaikum min sulṭān(in), bal kuntum qauman ṭāgīn(a).
[30]
And we had over you no authority, but you were a transgressing people.
فَحَقَّ عَلَيْنَا قَوْلُ رَبِّنَآ ۖاِنَّا لَذَاۤىِٕقُوْنَ٣١
Fa ḥaqqa ‘alainā qaulu rabbinā, innā lażā'iqūn(a).
[31]
So the word of our Lord has come into effect upon us; indeed, we will taste [punishment].
فَاَغْوَيْنٰكُمْ اِنَّا كُنَّا غٰوِيْنَ٣٢
Fa agwainākum innā kunnā gāwīn(a).
[32]
And we led you to deviation; indeed, we were deviators."
فَاِنَّهُمْ يَوْمَىِٕذٍ فِى الْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُوْنَ٣٣
Fa innahum yauma'iżin fil-‘ażābi musytarikūn(a).
[33]
So indeed they, that Day, will be sharing in the punishment.
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِالْمُجْرِمِيْنَ٣٤
Innā każālika naf‘alu bil-mujrimīn(a).
[34]
Indeed, that is how We deal with the criminals.
اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْٓا اِذَا قِيْلَ لَهُمْ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُوْنَ ۙ٣٥
Innahum kānū iżā qīla lahum lā ilāha illallāhu yastakbirūn(a).
[35]
Indeed they, when it was said to them, "There is no deity but Allah," were arrogant
وَيَقُوْلُوْنَ اَىِٕنَّا لَتَارِكُوْٓا اٰلِهَتِنَا لِشَاعِرٍ مَّجْنُوْنٍ ۗ٣٦
Wa yaqūlūna a'innā latārikū ālihatinā lisyā‘irim majnūn(in).
[36]
And were saying, "Are we to leave our gods for a mad poet?"
بَلْ جَاۤءَ بِالْحَقِّ وَصَدَّقَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ٣٧
Bal jā'a bil-ḥaqqi wa ṣaddaqal-mursalīn(a).
[37]
Rather, the Prophet has come with the truth and confirmed the [previous] messengers.
اِنَّكُمْ لَذَاۤىِٕقُوا الْعَذَابِ الْاَلِيْمِ ۚ٣٨
Innakum lażā'iqul-‘ażābil-alīm(i).
[38]
Indeed, you [disbelievers] will be tasters of the painful punishment,
وَمَا تُجْزَوْنَ اِلَّا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَۙ٣٩
Wa mā tujzauna illā mā kuntum ta‘malūn(a).
[39]
And you will not be recompensed except for what you used to do -
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ٤٠
Illā ‘ibādallāhil-mukhlaṣīn(a).
[40]
But not the chosen servants of Allah.
اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ رِزْقٌ مَّعْلُوْمٌۙ٤١
Ulā'ika lahum rizqum ma‘lūm(un).
[41]
Those will have a provision determined -
فَوَاكِهُ ۚوَهُمْ مُّكْرَمُوْنَۙ٤٢
Fawākihu wa hum mukramūn(a).
[42]
Fruits; and they will be honored
فِيْ جَنّٰتِ النَّعِيْمِۙ٤٣
Fī jannātin na‘īm(i).
[43]
In gardens of pleasure
عَلٰى سُرُرٍ مُّتَقٰبِلِيْنَ٤٤
‘Alā sururim mutaqābilīn(a).
[44]
On thrones facing one another.
يُطَافُ عَلَيْهِمْ بِكَأْسٍ مِّنْ مَّعِيْنٍۢ ۙ٤٥
Yuṭāfu ‘alaihim bika'sim mim ma‘īn(in).
[45]
There will be circulated among them a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring,
بَيْضَاۤءَ لَذَّةٍ لِّلشّٰرِبِيْنَۚ٤٦
Baiḍā'a lażżatil lisy-syāribīn(a).
[46]
White and delicious to the drinkers;
لَا فِيْهَا غَوْلٌ وَّلَا هُمْ عَنْهَا يُنْزَفُوْنَ٤٧
Lā fīhā gauluw wa lā hum ‘anhā yunzafūn(a).
[47]
No bad effect is there in it, nor from it will they be intoxicated.
وَعِنْدَهُمْ قٰصِرٰتُ الطَّرْفِ عِيْنٌ ۙ٤٨
Wa ‘indahum qāṣirātuṭ-ṭarfi ‘īn(un).
[48]
And with them will be women limiting [their] glances, with large, [beautiful] eyes,
كَاَنَّهُنَّ بَيْضٌ مَّكْنُوْنٌ٤٩
Ka'annahum baiḍum maknūn(un).
[49]
As if they were [delicate] eggs, well-protected.
فَاَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰى بَعْضٍ يَّتَسَاۤءَلُوْنَ٥٠
Fa'aqbala ba‘ḍuhum ‘alā ba‘ḍiy yatasā'alūn(a).
[50]
And they will approach one another, inquiring of each other.
قَالَ قَاۤىِٕلٌ مِّنْهُمْ اِنِّيْ كَانَ لِيْ قَرِيْنٌۙ٥١
Qāla qā'ilum minhum innī kāna lī qarīn(un).
[51]
A speaker among them will say, "Indeed, I had a companion [on earth]
يَّقُوْلُ اَءِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُصَدِّقِيْنَ٥٢
Yaqūlu a'innaka laminal-muṣaddiqīn(a).
[52]
Who would say, 'Are you indeed of those who believe
ءَاِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَّعِظَامًا ءَاِنَّا لَمَدِيْنُوْنَ٥٣
A'iżā mitnā wa kunnā turāban a'innā lamadīnūn(a).
[53]
That when we have died and become dust and bones, we will indeed be recompensed?'"
قَالَ هَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّطَّلِعُوْنَ٥٤
Qāla hal antum muṭṭali‘ūn(a).
[54]
He will say, "Would you [care to] look?"
فَاطَّلَعَ فَرَاٰهُ فِيْ سَوَاۤءِ الْجَحِيْمِ٥٥
Faṭṭala‘a fa ra'āhu fī sawā'il-jaḥīm(i).
[55]
And he will look and see him in the midst of the Hellfire.
قَالَ تَاللّٰهِ اِنْ كِدْتَّ لَتُرْدِيْنِ ۙ٥٦
Qāla tallāhi in kitta laturdīn(i).
[56]
He will say, "By Allah, you almost ruined me.
وَلَوْلَا نِعْمَةُ رَبِّيْ لَكُنْتُ مِنَ الْمُحْضَرِيْنَ٥٧
Wa lau lā ni‘matu rabbī lakuntu minal-muḥḍarīn(a).
[57]
If not for the favor of my Lord, I would have been of those brought in [to Hell].
اَفَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَيِّتِيْنَۙ٥٨
Afamā naḥnu bimayyitīn(a).
[58]
Then, are we not to die
اِلَّا مَوْتَتَنَا الْاُوْلٰى وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِيْنَ٥٩
Illā mautatunal-ūlā wa mā naḥnu bimu‘ażżabīn(a).
[59]
Except for our first death, and we will not be punished?"
اِنَّ هٰذَا لَهُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيْمُ٦٠
Inna hāżā lahuwal-fauzul-‘aẓīm(u).
[60]
Indeed, this is the great attainment.
لِمِثْلِ هٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ الْعٰمِلُوْنَ٦١
Limiṡli hāżā falya‘malil-‘āmilūn(a).
[61]
For the like of this let the workers [on earth] work.
اَذٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ نُّزُلًا اَمْ شَجَرَةُ الزَّقُّوْمِ٦٢
Ażālika khairun nuzulan am syajaratuz-zaqqūm(i).
[62]
Is Paradise a better accommodation or the tree of zaqqum?
اِنَّا جَعَلْنٰهَا فِتْنَةً لِّلظّٰلِمِيْنَ٦٣
Innā ja‘alnāhā fitnatal liẓ-ẓālimīn(a).
[63]
Indeed, We have made it a torment for the wrongdoers.
اِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٌ تَخْرُجُ فِيْٓ اَصْلِ الْجَحِيْمِۙ٦٤
Innahā syajaratun takhruju fī aṣlil-jaḥīm(i).
[64]
Indeed, it is a tree issuing from the bottom of the Hellfire,
طَلْعُهَا كَاَنَّهٗ رُءُوْسُ الشَّيٰطِيْنِ٦٥
Ṭal‘uhā ka'annahū ru'ūsusy-syayāṭīn(i).
[65]
Its emerging fruit as if it was heads of the devils.
فَاِنَّهُمْ لَاٰكِلُوْنَ مِنْهَا فَمَالِـُٔوْنَ مِنْهَا الْبُطُوْنَۗ٦٦
Fa innahum la'ākilūna minhā fa māli'ūna minhal-buṭūn(a).
[66]
And indeed, they will eat from it and fill with it their bellies.
ثُمَّ اِنَّ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا لَشَوْبًا مِّنْ حَمِيْمٍۚ٦٧
Ṡumma inna lahum ‘alaihā lasyaubam min ḥamīm(in).
[67]
Then indeed, they will have after it a mixture of scalding water.
ثُمَّ اِنَّ مَرْجِعَهُمْ لَاِلَى الْجَحِيْمِ٦٨
Ṡumma inna marji‘ahum la'ilal-jaḥīm(i).
[68]
Then indeed, their return will be to the Hellfire.
اِنَّهُمْ اَلْفَوْا اٰبَاۤءَهُمْ ضَاۤلِّيْنَۙ٦٩
Innahum alfau ābā'ahum ḍāllīn(a).
[69]
Indeed they found their fathers astray.
فَهُمْ عَلٰٓى اٰثٰرِهِمْ يُهْرَعُوْنَ٧٠
Fahum ‘alā āṡārihim yuhra‘ūn(a).
[70]
So they hastened [to follow] in their footsteps.
وَلَقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ اَكْثَرُ الْاَوَّلِيْنَۙ٧١
Wa laqad ḍalla qablahum akṡarul-awwalīn(a).
[71]
And there had already strayed before them most of the former peoples,
وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا فِيْهِمْ مُّنْذِرِيْنَ٧٢
Wa laqad arsalnā fīhim munżirīn(a).
[72]
And We had already sent among them warners.
فَانْظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُنْذَرِيْنَۙ٧٣
Fanẓur kaifa kāna ‘āqibatul-munżarīn(a).
[73]
Then look how was the end of those who were warned -
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ ࣖ٧٤
Illā ‘ibādallāhil-mukhlaṣīn(a).
[74]
But not the chosen servants of Allah.
وَلَقَدْ نَادٰىنَا نُوْحٌ فَلَنِعْمَ الْمُجِيْبُوْنَۖ٧٥
Wa laqad nādānā nūḥun falani‘mal-mujībūn(a).
[75]
And Noah had certainly called Us, and [We are] the best of responders.
وَنَجَّيْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗ مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيْمِۖ٧٦
Wa najjaināhu wa ahlahū minal-karbil-‘aẓīm(i).
[76]
And We saved him and his family from the great affliction.
وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهٗ هُمُ الْبَاقِيْنَ٧٧
Wa ja‘alnā żurriyyatahū humul-bāqīn(a).
[77]
And We made his descendants those remaining [on the earth]
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَ ۖ٧٨
Wa taraknā ‘alaihi fil-ākhirīn(a).
[78]
And left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰى نُوْحٍ فِى الْعٰلَمِيْنَ٧٩
Salāmun ‘alā nūḥin fil-‘ālamīn(a).
[79]
"Peace upon Noah among the worlds."
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ٨٠
Innā każālika najzil-muḥsinīn(a).
[80]
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّهٗ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ٨١
Innahū min ‘ibādinal-mu'minīn(a).
[81]
Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.
ثُمَّ اَغْرَقْنَا الْاٰخَرِيْنَ٨٢
Ṡumma agraqnal-ākharīn(a).
[82]
Then We drowned the disbelievers.
۞ وَاِنَّ مِنْ شِيْعَتِهٖ لَاِبْرٰهِيْمَ ۘ٨٣
Wa inna min syī‘atihī la'ibrāhīm(a).
[83]
And indeed, among his kind was Abraham,
اِذْ جَاۤءَ رَبَّهٗ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيْمٍۙ٨٤
Iż jā'a rabbahū biqalbin salīm(in).
[84]
When he came to his Lord with a sound heart
اِذْ قَالَ لِاَبِيْهِ وَقَوْمِهٖ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ ۚ٨٥
Iż qāla li'abīhi wa qaumihī māżā ta‘budūn(a).
[85]
[And] when he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?
اَىِٕفْكًا اٰلِهَةً دُوْنَ اللّٰهِ تُرِيْدُوْنَۗ٨٦
A'ifkan ālihatan dūnallāhi turīdūn(a).
[86]
Is it falsehood [as] gods other than Allah you desire?
فَمَا ظَنُّكُمْ بِرَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَ٨٧
Famā ẓannukum birabbil-‘ālamīn(a).
[87]
Then what is your thought about the Lord of the worlds?"
فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِى النُّجُوْمِۙ٨٨
Fa naẓara naẓratan fin-nujūm(i).
[88]
And he cast a look at the stars
فَقَالَ اِنِّيْ سَقِيْمٌ٨٩
Fa qāla innī saqīm(un).
[89]
And said, "Indeed, I am [about to be] ill."
فَتَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِيْنَ٩٠
Fa tawallau ‘anhu mudbirīn(a).
[90]
So they turned away from him, departing.
فَرَاغَ اِلٰٓى اٰلِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ اَلَا تَأْكُلُوْنَۚ٩١
Farāga ilā ālihatihim faqāla alā ta'kulūn(a).
[91]
Then he turned to their gods and said, "Do you not eat?
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنْطِقُوْنَ٩٢
Mā lakum lā tanṭiqūn(a).
[92]
What is [wrong] with you that you do not speak?"
فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًا ۢبِالْيَمِيْنِ٩٣
Farāga ‘alaihim ḍarbam bil-yamīn(i).
[93]
And he turned upon them a blow with [his] right hand.
فَاَقْبَلُوْٓا اِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّوْنَ٩٤
Fa aqbalū ilaihi yaziffūn(a).
[94]
Then the people came toward him, hastening.
قَالَ اَتَعْبُدُوْنَ مَا تَنْحِتُوْنَۙ٩٥
Qāla ata‘budūna mā tanḥitūn(a).
[95]
He said, "Do you worship that which you [yourselves] carve,
وَاللّٰهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ٩٦
Wallāhu khalaqakum wa mā ta‘malūn(a).
[96]
While Allah created you and that which you do?"
قَالُوا ابْنُوْا لَهٗ بُنْيَانًا فَاَلْقُوْهُ فِى الْجَحِيْمِ٩٧
Qālubnū lahū bun-yānan fa'alqūhu fil-jaḥīm(i).
[97]
They said, "Construct for him a furnace and throw him into the burning fire."
فَاَرَادُوْا بِهٖ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنٰهُمُ الْاَسْفَلِيْنَ٩٨
Fa arādū bihī kaidan faja‘alnāhumul-asfalīn(a).
[98]
And they intended for him a plan, but We made them the most debased.
وَقَالَ اِنِّيْ ذَاهِبٌ اِلٰى رَبِّيْ سَيَهْدِيْنِ٩٩
Wa qāla innī żāhibun ilā rabbī sayahdīn(i).
[99]
And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.
رَبِّ هَبْ لِيْ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ١٠٠
Rabbi hab lī minaṣ-ṣāliḥīn(a).
[100]
My Lord, grant me [a child] from among the righteous."
فَبَشَّرْنٰهُ بِغُلٰمٍ حَلِيْمٍ١٠١
Fa basysyarnāhu bigulāmin ḥalīm(in).
[101]
So We gave him good tidings of a forbearing boy.
فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ السَّعْيَ قَالَ يٰبُنَيَّ اِنِّيْٓ اَرٰى فِى الْمَنَامِ اَنِّيْٓ اَذْبَحُكَ فَانْظُرْ مَاذَا تَرٰىۗ قَالَ يٰٓاَبَتِ افْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُۖ سَتَجِدُنِيْٓ اِنْ شَاۤءَ اللّٰهُ مِنَ الصّٰبِرِيْنَ١٠٢
Falammā balaga ma‘ahus-sa‘ya qāla yā bunayya innī arā fil-manāmi annī ażbaḥuka fanẓur māżā tarā, qāla yā abatif‘al mā tu'mar(u), satajidunī in syā'allāhu minaṣ-ṣābirīn(a).
[102]
And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, "O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think." He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast."
فَلَمَّآ اَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهٗ لِلْجَبِيْنِۚ١٠٣
Falammā aslamā wa tallahū lil-jabīn(i).
[103]
And when they had both submitted and he put him down upon his forehead,
وَنَادَيْنٰهُ اَنْ يّٰٓاِبْرٰهِيْمُ ۙ١٠٤
Wa nādaināhu ay yā ibrāhīm(u).
[104]
We called to him, "O Abraham,
قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ الرُّءْيَا ۚاِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ١٠٥
Qad ṣaddaqtar-ru'yā, innā każālika najzil-muḥsinīn(a).
[105]
You have fulfilled the vision." Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّ هٰذَا لَهُوَ الْبَلٰۤؤُا الْمُبِيْنُ١٠٦
Inna hāżā lahuwal-balā'ul-mubīn(u).
[106]
Indeed, this was the clear trial.
وَفَدَيْنٰهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيْمٍ١٠٧
Wa fadaināhu biżibḥin ‘aẓīm(in).
[107]
And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice,
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَ ۖ١٠٨
Wa taraknā ‘alaihi fil-ākhirīn(a).
[108]
And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰٓى اِبْرٰهِيْمَ١٠٩
Salāmun ‘alā ibrāhīm(a).
[109]
"Peace upon Abraham."
كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ١١٠
Każālika najzil-muḥsinīn(a).
[110]
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّهٗ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ١١١
Innahū min ‘ibādinal-mu'minīn(a).
[111]
Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.
وَبَشَّرْنٰهُ بِاِسْحٰقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ١١٢
Wa basysyarnāhu bi'isḥāqa nabiyyam minaṣ-ṣāliḥīn(a).
[112]
And We gave him good tidings of Isaac, a prophet from among the righteous.
وَبٰرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَعَلٰٓى اِسْحٰقَۗ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحْسِنٌ وَّظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهٖ مُبِيْنٌ ࣖ١١٣
Wa bāraknā ‘alaihi wa ‘alā isḥāq(a), wa min żurriyyatihimā muḥsinuw wa ẓālimul linafsihī mubīn(un).
[113]
And We blessed him and Isaac. But among their descendants is the doer of good and the clearly unjust to himself.
وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلٰى مُوْسٰى وَهٰرُوْنَ ۚ١١٤
Wa laqad manannā ‘alā mūsā wa hārūn(a).
[114]
And We did certainly confer favor upon Moses and Aaron.
وَنَجَّيْنٰهُمَا وَقَوْمَهُمَا مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيْمِۚ١١٥
Wa najjaināhumā wa qaumahumā minal-karbil-‘aẓīm(i).
[115]
And We saved them and their people from the great affliction,
وَنَصَرْنٰهُمْ فَكَانُوْا هُمُ الْغٰلِبِيْنَۚ١١٦
Wa naṣarnāhum fakānū humul-gālibīn(a).
[116]
And We supported them so it was they who overcame.
وَاٰتَيْنٰهُمَا الْكِتٰبَ الْمُسْتَبِيْنَ ۚ١١٧
Wa ātaināhumal-kitābal-mustabīn(a).
[117]
And We gave them the explicit Scripture,
وَهَدَيْنٰهُمَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيْمَۚ١١٨
Wa hadaināhumaṣ-ṣirāṭal-mustaqīm(a).
[118]
And We guided them on the straight path.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِمَا فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَ ۖ١١٩
Wa taraknā ‘alaihimā fil-ākhirīn(a).
[119]
And We left for them [favorable mention] among later generations:
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰى مُوْسٰى وَهٰرُوْنَ١٢٠
Salāmun ‘alā mūsā wa hārūn(a).
[120]
"Peace upon Moses and Aaron."
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ١٢١
Innā każālika najzil-muḥsinīn(a).
[121]
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّهُمَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ١٢٢
Innahumā min ‘ibādinal-mu'minīn(a).
[122]
Indeed, they were of Our believing servants.
وَاِنَّ اِلْيَاسَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۗ١٢٣
Wa inna ilyāsa laminal-mursalīn(a).
[123]
And indeed, Elias was from among the messengers,
اِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهٖٓ اَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ١٢٤
Iż qāla liqaumihī alā tattaqūn(a).
[124]
When he said to his people, "Will you not fear Allah?
اَتَدْعُوْنَ بَعْلًا وَّتَذَرُوْنَ اَحْسَنَ الْخٰلِقِيْنَۙ١٢٥
Atad‘ūna ba‘law wa tażarūna aḥsanal-khāliqīn(a).
[125]
Do you call upon Ba'l and leave the best of creators -
اللّٰهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ اٰبَاۤىِٕكُمُ الْاَوَّلِيْنَ١٢٦
Allāha rabbakum wa rabba ābā'ikumul-awwalīn(a).
[126]
Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers?"
فَكَذَّبُوْهُ فَاِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُوْنَۙ١٢٧
Fakażżabūhu fa'innahum lamuḥḍarūn(a).
[127]
And they denied him, so indeed, they will be brought [for punishment],
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ١٢٨
Illā ‘ibādallāhil-mukhlaṣīn(a).
[128]
Except the chosen servants of Allah.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَ ۙ١٢٩
Wa taraknā ‘alaihi fil-ākhirīn(a).
[129]
And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰٓى اِلْ يَاسِيْنَ١٣٠
Salāmun ‘alā ilyāsīn(a).
[130]
"Peace upon Elias."
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ١٣١
Innā każālika najzil-muḥsinīn(a).
[131]
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّهٗ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ١٣٢
Innahū min ‘ibādinal-mu'minīn(a).
[132]
Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.
وَاِنَّ لُوْطًا لَّمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۗ١٣٣
Wa inna lūṭal laminal-mursalīn(a).
[133]
And indeed, Lot was among the messengers.
اِذْ نَجَّيْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗٓ اَجْمَعِيْنَۙ١٣٤
Iż najjaināhu wa ahlahū ajma‘īn(a).
[134]
[So mention] when We saved him and his family, all,
اِلَّا عَجُوْزًا فِى الْغٰبِرِيْنَ١٣٥
Illā ‘ajūzan fil-gābirīn(a).
[135]
Except his wife among those who remained [with the evildoers].
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا الْاٰخَرِيْنَ١٣٦
Ṡumma dammarnal-ākharīn(a).
[136]
Then We destroyed the others.
وَاِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّوْنَ عَلَيْهِمْ مُّصْبِحِيْنَۙ١٣٧
Wa innakum latamurrūna ‘alaihim muṣbiḥīn(a).
[137]
And indeed, you pass by them in the morning
وَبِالَّيْلِۗ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ ࣖ١٣٨
Wa bil-lail(i), afalā ta‘qilūn(a).
[138]
And at night. Then will you not use reason?
وَاِنَّ يُوْنُسَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۗ١٣٩
Wa inna yūnusa laminal-mursalīn(a).
[139]
And indeed, Jonah was among the messengers.
اِذْ اَبَقَ اِلَى الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُوْنِۙ١٤٠
Iż abaqa ilal-fulkil-masyḥūn(i).
[140]
[Mention] when he ran away to the laden ship.
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُدْحَضِيْنَۚ١٤١
Fa sāhama fakāna minal-mudḥaḍīn(a).
[141]
And he drew lots and was among the losers.
فَالْتَقَمَهُ الْحُوْتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيْمٌ١٤٢
Faltaqamahul-ḥūtu wa huwa mulīm(un).
[142]
Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy.
فَلَوْلَآ اَنَّهٗ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحِيْنَ ۙ١٤٣
Falau lā annahū kāna minal-musabbiḥīn(a).
[143]
And had he not been of those who exalt Allah,
لَلَبِثَ فِيْ بَطْنِهٖٓ اِلٰى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُوْنَۚ١٤٤
Lalabiṡa fī baṭnihī ilā yaumi yub‘aṡūn(a).
[144]
He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected.
۞ فَنَبَذْنٰهُ بِالْعَرَاۤءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيْمٌ ۚ١٤٥
Fa nabażnāhu bil-‘arā'i wa huwa saqīm(un).
[145]
But We threw him onto the open shore while he was ill.
وَاَنْۢبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّنْ يَّقْطِيْنٍۚ١٤٦
Wa ambatnā ‘alaihi syajaratam miy yaqṭīn(in).
[146]
And We caused to grow over him a gourd vine.
وَاَرْسَلْنٰهُ اِلٰى مِائَةِ اَلْفٍ اَوْ يَزِيْدُوْنَۚ١٤٧
Wa arsalnāhu ilā mi'ati alfin au yazīdūn(a).
[147]
And We sent him to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more.
فَاٰمَنُوْا فَمَتَّعْنٰهُمْ اِلٰى حِيْنٍ١٤٨
Fa'āmanū famatta‘nāhum ilā ḥīn(in).
[148]
And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.
فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ اَلِرَبِّكَ الْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ الْبَنُوْنَۚ١٤٩
Fastaftihim alirabbikal-banātu wa lahumul-banūn(a).
[149]
So inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?
اَمْ خَلَقْنَا الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةَ اِنَاثًا وَّهُمْ شٰهِدُوْنَ١٥٠
Am khalaqnal-malā'ikata ināṡaw wa hum syāhidūn(a).
[150]
Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?"
اَلَآ اِنَّهُمْ مِّنْ اِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُوْلُوْنَۙ١٥١
Alā innahum min ifkihim layaqūlūn(a).
[151]
Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say,
وَلَدَ اللّٰهُ ۙوَاِنَّهُمْ لَكٰذِبُوْنَۙ١٥٢
Waladallāh(u), wa innahum lakāżibūn(a).
[152]
" Allah has begotten," and indeed, they are liars.
اَصْطَفَى الْبَنَاتِ عَلَى الْبَنِيْنَۗ١٥٣
Aṣṭafal-banāti ‘alal-banīn(a).
[153]
Has He chosen daughters over sons?
مَا لَكُمْۗ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُوْنَ١٥٤
Mā lakum, kaifa taḥkumūn(a).
[154]
What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?
اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُوْنَۚ١٥٥
Afalā tażakkarūn(a).
[155]
Then will you not be reminded?
اَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطٰنٌ مُّبِيْنٌۙ١٥٦
Am lakum sulṭānum mubīn(un).
[156]
Or do you have a clear authority?
فَأْتُوْا بِكِتٰبِكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ١٥٧
Fa'tū bikitābikum in kuntum ṣādiqīn(a).
[157]
Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.
وَجَعَلُوْا بَيْنَهٗ وَبَيْنَ الْجِنَّةِ نَسَبًا ۗوَلَقَدْ عَلِمَتِ الْجِنَّةُ اِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُوْنَۙ١٥٨
Wa ja‘alū bainahū wa bainal-jinnati nasabā(n), wa laqad ‘alimatil-jinnatu innahum lamuḥḍarūn(a).
[158]
And they have claimed between Him and the jinn a lineage, but the jinn have already known that they [who made such claims] will be brought to [punishment].
سُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوْنَۙ١٥٩
Subḥānallāhi ‘ammā yaṣifūn(a).
[159]
Exalted is Allah above what they describe,
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ١٦٠
Illā ‘ibādallāhil-mukhlaṣīn(a).
[160]
Except the chosen servants of Allah [who do not share in that sin].
فَاِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَۙ١٦١
Fa'innakum wa mā ta‘budūn(a).
[161]
So indeed, you [disbelievers] and whatever you worship,
مَآ اَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفٰتِنِيْنَۙ١٦٢
Mā antum ‘alaihi bifātinīn(a).
[162]
You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him
اِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ الْجَحِيْمِ١٦٣
Illā man huwa ṣālil-jaḥīm(i).
[163]
Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire.
وَمَا مِنَّآ اِلَّا لَهٗ مَقَامٌ مَّعْلُوْمٌۙ١٦٤
Wa mā minnā illā lahū maqāmum ma‘lūm(un).
[164]
[The angels say], "There is not among us any except that he has a known position.
وَّاِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الصَّۤافُّوْنَۖ١٦٥
Wa innā lanaḥnuṣ-ṣāffūn(a).
[165]
And indeed, we are those who line up [for prayer].
وَاِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْمُسَبِّحُوْنَ١٦٦
Wa innā lanaḥnul-musabbiḥūn(a).
[166]
And indeed, we are those who exalt Allah."
وَاِنْ كَانُوْا لَيَقُوْلُوْنَۙ١٦٧
Wa in kānū layaqūlūn(a).
[167]
And indeed, the disbelievers used to say,
لَوْ اَنَّ عِنْدَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ الْاَوَّلِيْنَۙ١٦٨
Lau anna ‘indanā żikram minal-awwalīn(a).
[168]
"If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ١٦٩
Lakunnā ‘ibādallāhil-mukhlaṣīn(a).
[169]
We would have been the chosen servants of Allah."
فَكَفَرُوْا بِهٖۚ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُوْنَ١٧٠
Fa kafarū bih(ī), fasaufa ya‘lamūn(a).
[170]
But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.
وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ ۖ١٧١
Wa laqad sabaqat kalimatunā li‘ibādinal-mursalīn(a).
[171]
And Our word has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,
اِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ الْمَنْصُوْرُوْنَۖ١٧٢
Innahum lahumul-manṣūrūn(a).
[172]
[That] indeed, they would be those given victory
وَاِنَّ جُنْدَنَا لَهُمُ الْغٰلِبُوْنَ١٧٣
Wa inna jundanā lahumul-gālibūn(a).
[173]
And [that] indeed, Our soldiers will be those who overcome.
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍۙ١٧٤
Fatawalla ‘anhum ḥattā ḥīn(in).
[174]
So, [O Muhammad], leave them for a time.
وَّاَبْصِرْهُمْۗ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُوْنَ١٧٥
Wa abṣirhum, fa saufa yubṣirūn(a).
[175]
And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.
اَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَ١٧٦
Afabi‘ażābinā yasta‘jilūn(a).
[176]
Then for Our punishment are they impatient?
فَاِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَاۤءَ صَبَاحُ الْمُنْذَرِيْنَ١٧٧
Fa iżā nazala bisāḥatihim fa sā'a ṣabāḥul-munżarīn(a).
[177]
But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.
وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍۙ١٧٨
Wa tawalla ‘anhum ḥattā ḥīn(in).
[178]
And leave them for a time.
وَّاَبْصِرْۗ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُوْنَ١٧٩
Wa abṣir, fasaufa yubṣirūn(a).
[179]
And see, for they are going to see.
سُبْحٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ الْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوْنَۚ١٨٠
Subḥāna rabbika rabbil-‘izzati ‘ammā yaṣifūn(a).
[180]
Exalted is your Lord, the Lord of might, above what they describe.
وَسَلٰمٌ عَلَى الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۚ١٨١
Wa salāmun ‘alal-mursalīn(a).
[181]
And peace upon the messengers.
وَالْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَ ࣖ١٨٢
Wal-ḥamdu lillāhi rabbil-‘ālamīn(a).
[182]
And praise to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
