Surah 37

As-Saffat (The Rangers)

﴿١﴾  وَٱلصَّـٰٓفَّـٰتِ صَفًّا
1.  By those who set the ranks in battle order
﴿٢﴾  فَٱلزَّٰجِرَٰتِ زَجْرًا
2.  And those who drive away (the wicked) with reproof
﴿٣﴾  فَٱلتَّـٰلِيَـٰتِ ذِكْرًا
3.  And those who read (the Word) for a reminder,
﴿٤﴾  إِنَّ إِلَـٰهَكُمْ لَوَٰحِدٌ
4.  Lo! thy Lord is surely One.
﴿٥﴾  رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَرَبُّ ٱلْمَشَـٰرِقِ
5.  Lord of the heavens and of the earth and all that is between them, and Lord of the sun's risings.
﴿٦﴾  إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا ٱلسَّمَآءَ ٱلدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ ٱلْكَوَاكِبِ
6.  Lo! We have adorned the lowest heaven with an ornament, the planets:
﴿٧﴾  وَحِفْظًا مِّن كُلِّ شَيْطَـٰنٍ مَّارِدٍ
7.  With security from every froward devil.
﴿٨﴾  لَّا يَسَّمَّعُونَ إِلَى ٱلْمَلَإِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ وَيُقْذَفُونَ مِن كُلِّ جَانِبٍ
8.  They cannot listen to the Highest Chiefs for they are pelted from every side,
﴿٩﴾  دُحُورًا وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَاصِبٌ
9.  Outcast, and theirs is a perpetual torment;
﴿١٠﴾  إِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ ٱلْخَطْفَةَ فَأَتْبَعَهُۥ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ
10.  Save him who snatcheth a fragment, and there pursueth him a piercing flame.
﴿١١﴾  فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَهُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَم مَّنْ خَلَقْنَآ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَـٰهُم مِّن طِينٍ لَّازِبٍۭ
11.  Then ask them (O Muhammad): Are they stronger as a creation, or those (others) whom We have created? Lo! We created them of plastic clay.
﴿١٢﴾  بَلْ عَجِبْتَ وَيَسْخَرُونَ
12.  Nay, but thou dost marvel when they mock
﴿١٣﴾  وَإِذَا ذُكِّرُوا۟ لَا يَذْكُرُونَ
13.  And heed not when they are reminded,
﴿١٤﴾  وَإِذَا رَأَوْا۟ ءَايَةً يَسْتَسْخِرُونَ
14.  And seek to scoff when they behold a portent
﴿١٥﴾  وَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَـٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ
15.  And they say: lo! this is mere magic;
﴿١٦﴾  أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
16.  When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised (again)?
﴿١٧﴾  أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ
17.  And our forefathers?
﴿١٨﴾  قُلْ نَعَمْ وَأَنتُمْ دَٰخِرُونَ
18.  Say (O Muhammad): Yea, in truth; and ye will be brought low.
﴿١٩﴾  فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ فَإِذَا هُمْ يَنظُرُونَ
19.  There is but one Shout, and lo! they behold
﴿٢٠﴾  وَقَالُوا۟ يَـٰوَيْلَنَا هَـٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
20.  And say: Ah, woe for us! This is the Day of Judgment.
﴿٢١﴾  هَـٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
21.  This is the Day of Separation, which ye used to deny.
﴿٢٢﴾  ٱحْشُرُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ وَأَزْوَٰجَهُمْ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْبُدُونَ
22.  (And it is said unto the angels): Assemble those who did wrong, together with their wives and what they used to worship
﴿٢٣﴾  مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَٱهْدُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
23.  Instead of Allah, and lead them to the path to hell;
﴿٢٤﴾  وَقِفُوهُمْ إِنَّهُم مَّسْـُٔولُونَ
24.  And stop them, for they must be questioned.
﴿٢٥﴾  مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنَاصَرُونَ
25.  What aileth you that ye help not one another?
﴿٢٦﴾  بَلْ هُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ مُسْتَسْلِمُونَ
26.  Nay, but this day they make full submission.
﴿٢٧﴾  وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
27.  And some of them draw near unto others, mutually questioning.
﴿٢٨﴾  قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ تَأْتُونَنَا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ
28.  They say: Lo! ye used to come unto us, imposing, (swearing that ye spoke the truth).
﴿٢٩﴾  قَالُوا۟ بَل لَّمْ تَكُونُوا۟ مُؤْمِنِينَ
29.  They answer: Nay, but ye (yourselves) were not believers.
﴿٣٠﴾  وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا عَلَيْكُم مِّن سُلْطَـٰنٍۭ بَلْ كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا طَـٰغِينَ
30.  We had no power over you, but ye were wayward folk.
﴿٣١﴾  فَحَقَّ عَلَيْنَا قَوْلُ رَبِّنَآ إِنَّا لَذَآئِقُونَ
31.  Now the Word of our Lord hath been fulfilled concerning us. Lo! we are about to taste (the doom).
﴿٣٢﴾  فَأَغْوَيْنَـٰكُمْ إِنَّا كُنَّا غَـٰوِينَ
32.  Thus we misled you. Lo! we were (ourselves) astray.
﴿٣٣﴾  فَإِنَّهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ
33.  Then lo! this day they (both) are sharers in the doom.
﴿٣٤﴾  إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
34.  Lo! thus deal We with the guilty.
﴿٣٥﴾  إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوٓا۟ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ
35.  For when it was said unto them, There is no god save Allah, they were scornful
﴿٣٦﴾  وَيَقُولُونَ أَئِنَّا لَتَارِكُوٓا۟ ءَالِهَتِنَا لِشَاعِرٍ مَّجْنُونٍۭ
36.  And said: Shall we forsake our gods for a mad poet?
﴿٣٧﴾  بَلْ جَآءَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَصَدَّقَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
37.  Nay, but he brought the Truth, and he confirmed those sent (before him).
﴿٣٨﴾  إِنَّكُمْ لَذَآئِقُوا۟ ٱلْعَذَابِ ٱلْأَلِيمِ
38.  Lo! (now) verily ye taste the painful doom--
﴿٣٩﴾  وَمَا تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
39.  Ye are requited naught save what ye did--
﴿٤٠﴾  إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
40.  Save single-minded slaves of Allah;
﴿٤١﴾  أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ رِزْقٌ مَّعْلُومٌ
41.  For them there is a known provision,
﴿٤٢﴾  فَوَٰكِهُ وَهُم مُّكْرَمُونَ
42.  Fruits. And they will be honored
﴿٤٣﴾  فِى جَنَّـٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
43.  In the Gardens of delight,
﴿٤٤﴾  عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مُّتَقَـٰبِلِينَ
44.  On couches facing one another
﴿٤٥﴾  يُطَافُ عَلَيْهِم بِكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍۭ
45.  A cup from a gushing spring is brought round for them,
﴿٤٦﴾  بَيْضَآءَ لَذَّةٍ لِّلشَّـٰرِبِينَ
46.  White, delicious to the drinkers,
﴿٤٧﴾  لَا فِيهَا غَوْلٌ وَلَا هُمْ عَنْهَا يُنزَفُونَ
47.  Wherein there is no headache nor are they made mad thereby.
﴿٤٨﴾  وَعِندَهُمْ قَـٰصِرَٰتُ ٱلطَّرْفِ عِينٌ
48.  And with them are those of modest gaze, with lovely eyes,
﴿٤٩﴾  كَأَنَّهُنَّ بَيْضٌ مَّكْنُونٌ
49.  (Pure) as they were hidden eggs (of the ostrich).
﴿٥٠﴾  فَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
50.  And some of them draw near unto others, mutually questioning.
﴿٥١﴾  قَالَ قَآئِلٌ مِّنْهُمْ إِنِّى كَانَ لِى قَرِينٌ
51.  A speaker of them saith: Lo! I had a comrade
﴿٥٢﴾  يَقُولُ أَءِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُصَدِّقِينَ
52.  Who used to say: Art thou in truth of those who put faith (in his words)?
﴿٥٣﴾  أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَدِينُونَ
53.  Can we, when we are dead and have become mere dust and bones, can we (then) verily be brought to book?
﴿٥٤﴾  قَالَ هَلْ أَنتُم مُّطَّلِعُونَ
54.  He saith: Will ye look?
﴿٥٥﴾  فَٱطَّلَعَ فَرَءَاهُ فِى سَوَآءِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
55.  Then looketh he and seeth him in the depth of hell.
﴿٥٦﴾  قَالَ تَٱللَّهِ إِن كِدتَّ لَتُرْدِينِ
56.  He saith: By Allah, thou verily didst all but cause my ruin,
﴿٥٧﴾  وَلَوْلَا نِعْمَةُ رَبِّى لَكُنتُ مِنَ ٱلْمُحْضَرِينَ
57.  And had it not been for the favor of my Lord, I too had been of those haled forth (to doom).
﴿٥٨﴾  أَفَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَيِّتِينَ
58.  Are we then not to die
﴿٥٩﴾  إِلَّا مَوْتَتَنَا ٱلْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِينَ
59.  Saving our former death, and are we not to be punished?
﴿٦٠﴾  إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ
60.  Lo! this is the supreme triumph.
﴿٦١﴾  لِمِثْلِ هَـٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ ٱلْعَـٰمِلُونَ
61.  For the like of this, then, let the workers work.
﴿٦٢﴾  أَذَٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ نُّزُلًا أَمْ شَجَرَةُ ٱلزَّقُّومِ
62.  Is this better as a welcome, or the tree of Zaqqam?
﴿٦٣﴾  إِنَّا جَعَلْنَـٰهَا فِتْنَةً لِّلظَّـٰلِمِينَ
63.  Lo! We have appointed it a torment for wrong-doers.
﴿٦٤﴾  إِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٌ تَخْرُجُ فِىٓ أَصْلِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
64.  Lo! it is a tree that springeth in the heart of hell
﴿٦٥﴾  طَلْعُهَا كَأَنَّهُۥ رُءُوسُ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينِ
65.  Its crop is as it were the heads of devils
﴿٦٦﴾  فَإِنَّهُمْ لَـَٔاكِلُونَ مِنْهَا فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنْهَا ٱلْبُطُونَ
66.  And lo! they verily must eat thereof, and fill (their) bellies therewith.
﴿٦٧﴾  ثُمَّ إِنَّ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا لَشَوْبًا مِّنْ حَمِيمٍ
67.  And afterward, lo! thereupon they have a drink of boiling water
﴿٦٨﴾  ثُمَّ إِنَّ مَرْجِعَهُمْ لَإِلَى ٱلْجَحِيمِ
68.  And afterward, lo! their return is surely unto hell.
﴿٦٩﴾  إِنَّهُمْ أَلْفَوْا۟ ءَابَآءَهُمْ ضَآلِّينَ
69.  They indeed found their fathers astray,
﴿٧٠﴾  فَهُمْ عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَـٰرِهِمْ يُهْرَعُونَ
70.  But they make haste (to follow) in their footsteps.
﴿٧١﴾  وَلَقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ أَكْثَرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
71.  And verily most of the men of old went astray before them,
﴿٧٢﴾  وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا فِيهِم مُّنذِرِينَ
72.  And verily We sent among them warners.
﴿٧٣﴾  فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَـٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ
73.  Then see the nature of the consequence for those warned,
﴿٧٤﴾  إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
74.  Save single-minded slaves of Allah.
﴿٧٥﴾  وَلَقَدْ نَادَىٰنَا نُوحٌ فَلَنِعْمَ ٱلْمُجِيبُونَ
75.  And Noah verily prayed unto Us, and gracious was the Hearer of his prayer
﴿٧٦﴾  وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
76.  And We saved him and his household from the great distress,
﴿٧٧﴾  وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُۥ هُمُ ٱلْبَاقِينَ
77.  And made his seed the survivors,
﴿٧٨﴾  وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
78.  And left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
﴿٧٩﴾  سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰ نُوحٍ فِى ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
79.  Peace be unto Noah among the peoples!
﴿٨٠﴾  إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
80.  Lo! thus do We reward the good.
﴿٨١﴾  إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
81.  Lo! he is one of Our believing slaves.
﴿٨٢﴾  ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ
82.  Then We did drown the others.
﴿٨٣﴾  وَإِنَّ مِن شِيعَتِهِۦ لَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ
83.  And lo! of his persuasion verily was Abraham
﴿٨٤﴾  إِذْ جَآءَ رَبَّهُۥ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ
84.  When he came unto his Lord with a whole heart;
﴿٨٥﴾  إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِۦ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُونَ
85.  When he said unto his father and his folk: What is it that ye worship?
﴿٨٦﴾  أَئِفْكًا ءَالِهَةً دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ
86.  Is it a falsehood--gods beside Allah--that ye desire?
﴿٨٧﴾  فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
87.  What then is your opinion of the Lord of the Worlds?
﴿٨٨﴾  فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِى ٱلنُّجُومِ
88.  And he glanced a glance at the stars
﴿٨٩﴾  فَقَالَ إِنِّى سَقِيمٌ
89.  Then said: Lo! I feel sick!
﴿٩٠﴾  فَتَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِينَ
90.  And they turned their backs and went away from him
﴿٩١﴾  فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ
91.  Then turned he to their gods and said: Will ye not eat?
﴿٩٢﴾  مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنطِقُونَ
92.  What aileth you that ye speak not?
﴿٩٣﴾  فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًۢا بِٱلْيَمِينِ
93.  Then he attacked them, striking with his right hand.
﴿٩٤﴾  فَأَقْبَلُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّونَ
94.  And (his people) came toward him, hastening.
﴿٩٥﴾  قَالَ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَنْحِتُونَ
95.  He said: Worship ye that which ye yourselves do carve
﴿٩٦﴾  وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
96.  When Allah hath created you and what ye make?
﴿٩٧﴾  قَالُوا۟ ٱبْنُوا۟ لَهُۥ بُنْيَـٰنًا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِى ٱلْجَحِيمِ
97.  They said: Build for him a building and fling him in the red hot fire.
﴿٩٨﴾  فَأَرَادُوا۟ بِهِۦ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنَـٰهُمُ ٱلْأَسْفَلِينَ
98.  And they designed a snare for him, but We made them the undermost.
﴿٩٩﴾  وَقَالَ إِنِّى ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّى سَيَهْدِينِ
99.  And he said: Lo! I am going unto my Lord Who will guide me.
﴿١٠٠﴾  رَبِّ هَبْ لِى مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
100.  My Lord! Vouchsafe me of the righteous.
﴿١٠١﴾  فَبَشَّرْنَـٰهُ بِغُلَـٰمٍ حَلِيمٍ
101.  So We gave him tidings of a gentle son.
﴿١٠٢﴾  فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ ٱلسَّعْىَ قَالَ يَـٰبُنَىَّ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰ فِى ٱلْمَنَامِ أَنِّىٓ أَذْبَحُكَ فَٱنظُرْ مَاذَا تَرَىٰ قَالَ يَـٰٓأَبَتِ ٱفْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُ سَتَجِدُنِىٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
102.  And when (his son) was old enough to walk with him, (Abraham) said: O my dear son, I have seen in a dream that I must sacrifice thee. So look, what thinkest thou? He said: O my father! Do that which thou art commanded. Allah willing, thou shalt find me of the steadfast.
﴿١٠٣﴾  فَلَمَّآ أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلْجَبِينِ
103.  Then, when they had both surrendered (to Allah), and he had flung him down upon his face,
﴿١٠٤﴾  وَنَـٰدَيْنَـٰهُ أَن يَـٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ
104.  We called unto him: O Abraham:
﴿١٠٥﴾  قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ ٱلرُّءْيَآ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
105.  Thou hast already fulfilled the vision. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
﴿١٠٦﴾  إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْبَلَـٰٓؤُا۟ ٱلْمُبِينُ
106.  Lo! that verily was a clear test.
﴿١٠٧﴾  وَفَدَيْنَـٰهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيمٍ
107.  Then We ransomed him with a tremendous victim.
﴿١٠٨﴾  وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
108.  And We left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
﴿١٠٩﴾  سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ
109.  Peace be unto Abraham!
﴿١١٠﴾  كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
110.  Thus do We reward the good.
﴿١١١﴾  إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
111.  Lo! he is one of Our believing slaves.
﴿١١٢﴾  وَبَشَّرْنَـٰهُ بِإِسْحَـٰقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
112.  And We gave him tidings of the birth of Isaac, a Prophet of the righteous.
﴿١١٣﴾  وَبَـٰرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَىٰٓ إِسْحَـٰقَ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحْسِنٌ وَظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهِۦ مُبِينٌ
113.  And We blessed him and Isaac. And of their seed are some who do good, and some who plainly wrong themselves.
﴿١١٤﴾  وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَـٰرُونَ
114.  And We verily gave grace unto Moses and Aaron,
﴿١١٥﴾  وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُمَا وَقَوْمَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
115.  And saved them and their people from the great distress,
﴿١١٦﴾  وَنَصَرْنَـٰهُمْ فَكَانُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبِينَ
116.  And helped them so that they became the victors.
﴿١١٧﴾  وَءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمَا ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ ٱلْمُسْتَبِينَ
117.  And We gave them the clear Scripture
﴿١١٨﴾  وَهَدَيْنَـٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ
118.  And showed them the right path.
﴿١١٩﴾  وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِمَا فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
119.  And We left for them, among the later folk (the salutation):
﴿١٢٠﴾  سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَـٰرُونَ
120.  Peace be unto Moses and Aaron!
﴿١٢١﴾  إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
121.  Lo! thus do We reward the good.
﴿١٢٢﴾  إِنَّهُمَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
122.  Lo! they are two of our believing slaves.
﴿١٢٣﴾  وَإِنَّ إِلْيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
123.  And lo! Elias was of those sent (to warn)
﴿١٢٤﴾  إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
124.  When he said unto his folk: Will ye not ward off (evil)?
﴿١٢٥﴾  أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلًا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ ٱلْخَـٰلِقِينَ
125.  Will ye cry unto Baal and forsake the best of Creators,
﴿١٢٦﴾  ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
126.  Allah, your Lord and Lord of your forefathers?
﴿١٢٧﴾  فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
127.  But they denied him, so they surely will be haled forth (to the doom)
﴿١٢٨﴾  إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
128.  Save single-minded slaves of Allah.
﴿١٢٩﴾  وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
129.  And we left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
﴿١٣٠﴾  سَلَامٌ عَلَى إِلْ يَاسِينَ
130.  Peace be unto Elias!
﴿١٣١﴾  إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
131.  Lo! thus do We reward the good.
﴿١٣٢﴾  إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
132.  Lo! he is one of our believing slaves.
﴿١٣٣﴾  وَإِنَّ لُوطًا لَّمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
133.  And lo! Lot verily was of those sent (to warn),
﴿١٣٤﴾  إِذْ نَجَّيْنَـٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ
134.  When We saved him and his household, every one,
﴿١٣٥﴾  إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِى ٱلْغَـٰبِرِينَ
135.  Save an old woman among those who stayed behind;
﴿١٣٦﴾  ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ
136.  Then We destroyed the others.
﴿١٣٧﴾  وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ
137.  And Lo! ye verily pass by (the ruin of) them in the morning
﴿١٣٨﴾  وَبِٱلَّيْلِ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
138.  And at night time; have ye then no sense?
﴿١٣٩﴾  وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
139.  And lo! Jonah verily was of those sent (to warn)
﴿١٤٠﴾  إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ ٱلْمَشْحُونِ
140.  When he fled unto the laden ship,
﴿١٤١﴾  فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُدْحَضِينَ
141.  And then drew lots and was of those rejected;
﴿١٤٢﴾  فَٱلْتَقَمَهُ ٱلْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
142.  And the fish swallowed him while be was blameworthy;
﴿١٤٣﴾  فَلَوْلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَبِّحِينَ
143.  And had he not been one of those who glorify (Allah)
﴿١٤٤﴾  لَلَبِثَ فِى بَطْنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
144.  He would have tarried in its belly till the day when they are raised;
﴿١٤٥﴾  فَنَبَذْنَـٰهُ بِٱلْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ
145.  Then We cast him on a desert shore while he was sick;
﴿١٤٦﴾  وَأَنۢبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّن يَقْطِينٍ
146.  And We caused a tree of gourd to grow above him;
﴿١٤٧﴾  وَأَرْسَلْنَـٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِا۟ئَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ
147.  And We sent him to a hundred thousand (folk) or more
﴿١٤٨﴾  فَـَٔامَنُوا۟ فَمَتَّعْنَـٰهُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍ
148.  And they believed, therefor We gave them comfort for a while.
﴿١٤٩﴾  فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ
149.  Now ask them (O Muhammad): Hath thy Lord daughters whereas they have sons?
﴿١٥٠﴾  أَمْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَـٰثًا وَهُمْ شَـٰهِدُونَ
150.  Or created We the angels females while they were present?
﴿١٥١﴾  أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنْ إِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُولُونَ
151.  Lo! it is of their falsehood that they say:
﴿١٥٢﴾  وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَـٰذِبُونَ
152.  Allah hath begotten. And lo! verily they tell a lie.
﴿١٥٣﴾  أَصْطَفَى ٱلْبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلْبَنِينَ
153.  (And again of their falsehood): He hath preferred daughters to sons
﴿١٥٤﴾  مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ
154.  What aileth you? How judge ye? Ë
﴿١٥٥﴾  أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
155.  Will ye not then reflect?
﴿١٥٦﴾  أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَـٰنٌ مُّبِينٌ
156.  Or have ye a clear warrant?
﴿١٥٧﴾  فَأْتُوا۟ بِكِتَـٰبِكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ
157.  Then produce your writ, if ye are truthful.
﴿١٥٨﴾  وَجَعَلُوا۟ بَيْنَهُۥ وَبَيْنَ ٱلْجِنَّةِ نَسَبًا وَلَقَدْ عَلِمَتِ ٱلْجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
158.  And they imagine kinship between him and the jinn, whereas the jinn know well that they will be brought before (Him).
﴿١٥٩﴾  سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
159.  Glorified be Allah from that which they attribute (unto Him),
﴿١٦٠﴾  إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
160.  Save single-minded slaves of Allah.
﴿١٦١﴾  فَإِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ
161.  Lo! verily, ye and that which ye worship,
﴿١٦٢﴾  مَآ أَنتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفَـٰتِنِينَ
162.  Ye cannot excite (anyone) against Him
﴿١٦٣﴾  إِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
163.  Save him who is to burn in hell.
﴿١٦٤﴾  وَمَا مِنَّآ إِلَّا لَهُۥ مَقَامٌ مَّعْلُومٌ
164.  There is not one of Us but hath his known position.
﴿١٦٥﴾  وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ
165.  Lo! We, even We are they who set the ranks.
﴿١٦٦﴾  وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلْمُسَبِّحُونَ
166.  Lo! We, even We are they who hymn His praise
﴿١٦٧﴾  وَإِن كَانُوا۟ لَيَقُولُونَ
167.  And indeed they used to say:
﴿١٦٨﴾  لَوْ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
168.  If we had but a reminder from the men of old
﴿١٦٩﴾  لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
169.  We would be single-minded slaves of Allah.
﴿١٧٠﴾  فَكَفَرُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
170.  Yet (now that it is come) the, disbelieve therein: but they will come to know.
﴿١٧١﴾  وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
171.  And verily Our word went forth of old unto Our bondmen sent (to warn)
﴿١٧٢﴾  إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَنصُورُونَ
172.  That they verily would be helped,
﴿١٧٣﴾  وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبُونَ
173.  And that Our host, they verily would be the victors.
﴿١٧٤﴾  فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
174.  So withdraw from them (O Muhammad) awhile,
﴿١٧٥﴾  وَأَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
175.  And watch, for they will (soon) see.
﴿١٧٦﴾  أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
176.  Would they hasten on Our doom?
﴿١٧٧﴾  فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ
177.  But when it cometh home to them, then it will be a hapless morn for those who have been warned. Ë
﴿١٧٨﴾  وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
178.  Withdraw from them awhile
﴿١٧٩﴾  وَأَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ
179.  And watch, for they will (soon) see.
﴿١٨٠﴾  سُبْحَـٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
180.  Glorified be thy Lord, the Lord of Majesty, from that which they attribute (unto Him)
﴿١٨١﴾  وَسَلَـٰمٌ عَلَى ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
181.  And peace be unto those sent (to warn).
﴿١٨٢﴾  وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
182.  And praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds!
