Aqtaraba Lilnnāsi Ĥisābuhum Wa Hum Fī Ghaflatin Mu`riđūna

Mankind’s reckoning has drawn near to them, yet they are disregardful in [their] obliviousness

Ma yateehim min thikrin min rabbihim muhdathin illa istamaAAoohu wahum yalAAaboona

Mā Ya'tīhim Min Dhikrin Min Rabbihim Muĥdathin 'Illā Astama`ūhu Wa Hum Yal`abūna

There does not come to them any new reminder from their Lord but they listen to it as they play around

Wama jaAAalnahum jasadan la yakuloona alttaAAama wama kanoo khalideena

Wa Mā Ja`alnāhum Jasadāan Lā Ya'kulūna Aţ-Ţa`āma Wa Mā Kānū Khālidīna

Lā Tarkuđū Wa Arji`ū 'Ilá Mā 'Utriftum Fīhi Wa Masākinikum La`allakum Tus'alūna

‘Do not run away! Return to the opulence you were given to enjoy and to your dwellings so that you may be questioned!’

Qaloo ya waylana inna kunna thalimeena

Bal Naqdhifu Bil-Ĥaqqi `Alá Al-Bāţili Fayadmaghuhu Fa'idhā Huwa Zāhiqun Wa Lakumu Al-Waylu Mimmā Taşifūna

To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and those who are near Him do not disdain to worship Him, nor do they become weary

Yusabbihoona allayla waalnnahara la yafturoona

Yusabbiĥūna Al-Layla Wa An-Nahāra Lā Yafturūna

They glorify [Him] night and day, and they do not flag

Law Kāna Fīhimā 'Ālihatun 'Illā Allāhu Lafasadatā Fasubĥāna Allāhi Rabbi Al-`Arshi `Ammā Yaşifūna

La yusalu AAamma yafAAalu wahum yusaloona

Lā Yus'alu `Ammā Yaf`alu Wa Hum Yus'alūna

He is not questioned concerning what He does, but they are questioned

Have they taken gods besides Him? Say, ‘Produce your evidence! This is a precept of those who are with me, and a precept of those [who went] before me.’ But most of them do not know the truth, and so they are disregardful

Wama arsalna min qablika min rasoolin illa noohee ilayhi annahu la ilaha illa ana faoAAbudooni

Wa Mā 'Arsalnā Min Qablika Min Rasūl 'Iinillā Nūĥī 'Ilayhi 'Annahu Lā 'Ilāha 'Illā 'Anā Fā`budūni

Waqaloo ittakhatha alrrahmanu waladan subhanahu bal AAibadun mukramoona

Wa Qālū Attakhadha Ar-Raĥmānu Waladāan Subĥānahu Bal `Ibādun Mukramūna

Lā Yasbiqūnahu Bil-Qawli Wa Hum Bi'amrihi Ya`malūna

Have the faithless not regarded that the heavens and the earth were interwoven and We unravelled them, and We made every living thing out of water? Will they not then have faith

WajaAAalna fee alardi rawasiya an tameeda bihim wajaAAalna feeha fijajan subulan laAAallahum yahtadoona

Wa Ja`alnā Fī Al-'Arđi Rawāsiya 'An Tamīda Bihim Wa Ja`alnā Fīhā Fijājāan Subulāan La`allahum Yahtadūna

Wa Ja`alnā As-Samā'a Saqfāan Maĥfūžāan Wa Hum `An 'Āyātihā Mu`riđūna

We made the sky a preserved roof and yet they are disregardful of its signs

Wahuwa allathee khalaqa allayla waalnnahara waalshshamsa waalqamara kullun fee falakin yasbahoona

Wa Huwa Al-Ladhī Khalaqa Al-Layla Wa An-Nahāra Wa Ash-Shamsa Wa Al-Qamara Kullun Fī Falakin Yasbaĥūna

It is He who created the night and the day, the sun and the moon, each swimming in an orbit

Wama jaAAalna libasharin min qablika alkhulda afain mitta fahumu alkhalidoona

Wa Mā Ja`alnā Libasharin Min Qablika Al-Khulda 'Afa'īn Mitta Fahumu Al-Khālidūna

Kullu Nafsin Dhā'iqatu Al-Mawti Wa Nablūkum Bish-Sharri Wa Al-Khayri Fitnatan Wa 'Ilaynā Turja`ūna

Every soul shall taste death, and We will test you with good and ill by way of test, and to Us you will be brought back

Waitha raaka allatheena kafaroo in yattakhithoonaka illa huzuwan ahatha allathee yathkuru alihatakum wahum bithikri alrrahmani hum kafiroona

Whenever the faithless see you they only take you in derision: ‘Is this the one who remembers your gods?’ while they remain defiant towards the remembrance of the All-beneficent

Khuliqa alinsanu min AAajalin saoreekum ayatee fala tastaAAjiloona

Khuliqa Al-'Insānu Min `Ajalin Sa'urīkum 'Āyātī Falā Tasta`jilūni

Man is a creature of haste. Soon I will show you My signs. So do not ask Me to hasten

Wayaqooloona mata hatha alwaAAdu in kuntum sadiqeena

Wa Yaqūlūna Matá Hādhā Al-Wa`du 'In Kuntum Şādiqīna

And they say, ‘When will this promise be fulfilled, if you are truthful?’

Law yaAAlamu allatheena kafaroo heena la yakuffoona AAan wujoohihimu alnnara wala AAan thuhoorihim wala hum yunsaroona

Law Ya`lamu Al-Ladhīna Kafarū Ĥīna Lā Yakuffūna `An Wujūhihimu An-Nāra Wa Lā `An Žuhūrihim Wa Lā Hum Yunşarūna

If only the faithless knew about the time when they will not be able to keep the Fire off their faces and their backs, nor will they be helped

Bal tateehim baghtatan fatabhatuhum fala yastateeAAoona raddaha wala hum yuntharoona

Bal Ta'tīhim Baghtatan Fatabhatuhum Falā Yastaţī`ūna Raddahā Wa Lā Hum Yunžarūna

Indeed, it will overtake them suddenly, dumbfounding them. So they will neither be able to avert it, nor will they be granted any respite

Walaqadi istuhzia birusulin min qablika fahaqa biallatheena sakhiroo minhum ma kanoo bihi yastahzioona

Wa Laqadi Astuhzi'a Birusulin Min Qablika Faĥāqa Bial-Ladhīna Sakhirū Minhum Mā Kānū Bihi Yastahzi'ūn

Qul man yaklaokum biallayli waalnnahari mina alrrahmani bal hum AAan thikri rabbihim muAAridoona

Qul Man Yakla'uukum Bil-Layli Wa An-Nahāri Mina Ar-Raĥmāni Bal Hum `An Dhikri Rabbihim Mu`riđūna

Say, ‘Who can guard you, day and night, against [the punishment of] the All-beneficent [should He want to punish you]?’ Indeed, they are disregardful of their Lord’s remembrance

Am lahum alihatun tamnaAAuhum min doonina la yastateeAAoona nasra anfusihim wala hum minna yushaboona

Am Lahum 'Ālihatun Tamna`uhum Min Dūninā Lā Yastaţī`ūna Naşra 'Anfusihim Wa Lā Hum Minnā Yuşĥabūna

Do they have gods besides Us to defend them? Neither can they help themselves, nor can they shield [the idolaters] from Us

Indeed, We have provided for them and their fathers until they lived on for long years. Do they not see how We visit the land diminishing it at its edges? Are they the ones who will prevail

Qul innama onthirukum bialwahyi wala yasmaAAu alssummu aldduAAaa itha ma yuntharoona

Qul 'Innamā 'Undhirukum Bil-Waĥyi Wa Lā Yasma`u Aş-Şummu Ad-Du`ā'a 'Idhā Mā Yundharūna

Wa La'in Massat/hum Nafĥatun Min `Adhābi Rabbika Layaqūlunna Yā Waylanā 'Innā Kunnā Žālimīna

Should a whiff of your Lord’s punishment touch them, they will surely say, ‘Woe to us! We have indeed been wrongdoers!’

We shall set up just scales on the Day of Resurrection, and no soul will be wronged in the least. Even if it be the weight of a mustard seed We shall produce it and We suffice as reckoners

Walaqad atayna moosa waharoona alfurqana wadiyaan wathikran lilmuttaqeena

Wa Laqad 'Ātaynā Mūsá Wa Hārūna Al-Furqāna Wa Điyā'an Wa Dhikrāan Lilmuttaqīna

Allatheena yakhshawna rabbahum bialghaybi wahum mina alssaAAati mushfiqoona

Al-Ladhīna Yakhshawna Rabbahum Bil-Ghaybi Wa Hum Mina As-Sā`ati Mushfiqūna

Wahatha thikrun mubarakun anzalnahu afaantum lahu munkiroona

Wa Hadhā Dhikrun Mubārakun 'Anzalnāhu 'Afa'antum Lahu Munkirūna

And [remember] Job, when he called out to his Lord, ‘Indeed distress has befallen me, and You are the most merciful of the merciful.’

Faistajabna lahu fakashafna ma bihi min durrin waataynahu ahlahu wamithlahum maAAahum rahmatan min AAindina wathikra lilAAabideena

Fāstajabnā Lahu Fakashafnā Mā Bihi Min Đurrin Wa 'Ātaynāhu 'Ahlahu Wa Mithlahum Ma`ahum Raĥmatan Min `Indinā Wa Dhikrá Lil`ābidīna

So We answered his prayer and removed his distress, and We gave him [back] his family along with others like them, as a mercy from Us and an admonition for the devout

WaismaAAeela waidreesa watha alkifli kullun mina alssabireena

Wa 'Ismā`īla Wa 'Idrīsa Wa Dhā Al-Kifli Kullun Mina Aş-Şābirīna

And [remember] Ishmael, Idris, and Dhul-Kifl—each of them was among the patient

Waadkhalnahum fee rahmatina innahum mina alssaliheena

Wa 'Adkhalnāhum Fī Raĥmatinā 'Innahum Mina Aş-Şāliĥīna

We admitted them into Our mercy. Indeed, they were among the righteous

Watha alnnooni ith thahaba mughadiban fathanna an lan naqdira AAalayhi fanada fee alththulumati an la ilaha illa anta subhanaka innee kuntu mina alththalimeena

And [remember] the Man of the Fish, when he left in a rage, thinking that We would not put him to hardship. Then he cried out in the darkness, ‘There is no god except You! You are immaculate! I have indeed been among the wrongdoers!’

Faistajabna lahu wanajjaynahu mina alghammi wakathalika nunjee almumineena

Fāstajabnā Lahu Wa Najjaynāhu Mina Al-Ghammi Wa Kadhalika Nunjī Al-Mu'uminīna

So We answered his prayer and delivered him from the agony; and thus do We deliver the faithful

Wa Zakarīyā 'Idh Nādá Rabbahu Rabbi Lā Tadharnī Fardāan Wa 'Anta Khayru Al-Wārithīna

And [remember] Zechariah, when he cried out to his Lord, ‘My Lord! Do not leave me without an heir, and You are the best of inheritors.’

Faistajabna lahu wawahabna lahu yahya waaslahna lahu zawjahu innahum kanoo yusariAAoona fee alkhayrati wayadAAoonana raghaban warahaban wakanoo lana khashiAAeena

Fāstajabnā Lahu Wa Wahabnā Lahu Yaĥyá Wa 'Aşlaĥnā Lahu Zawjahu 'Innahum Kānū Yusāri`ūna Fī Al-Khayrāti Wa Yad`ūnanā Raghabāan Wa Rahabāan Wa Kānū Lanā Khāshi`īna

So We answered his prayer, and gave him John, and cured for him his wife [of infertility]. Indeed, they were active in [performing] good works, and they would supplicate Us with eagerness and awe and were humble before Us

Waallatee ahsanat farjaha fanafakhna feeha min roohina wajaAAalnaha waibnaha ayatan lilAAalameena

Wa A-Atī 'Aĥşanat Farjahā Fanafakhnā Fīhā Min Rūĥinā Wa Ja`alnāhā Wa Abnahā 'Āyatan Lil`ālamīna

And [remember] her who guarded her chastity, so We breathed into her Our spirit, and made her and her son a sign for all the nations

Inna hathihi ommatukum ommatan wahidatan waana rabbukum faoAAbudooni

Inna Hadhihi 'Ummatukum 'Ummatan Wāĥidatan Wa 'Anā Rabbukum Fā`budūni

WataqattaAAoo amrahum baynahum kullun ilayna rajiAAoona

Wa Taqaţţa`ū 'Amrahum Baynahum Kullun 'Ilaynā Rāji`ūna

Faman Ya`mal Mina Aş-Şāliĥāti Wa Huwa Mu'uminun Falā Kufrāna Lisa`yihi Wa 'Innā Lahu Kātibūna

Whoever is faithful and does righteous deeds, his endeavour shall not go unappreciated, and We will indeed record it for him

Waharamun AAala qaryatin ahlaknaha annahum la yarjiAAoona

Wa Ĥarāmun `Alá Qaryatin 'Ahlaknāhā 'Annahum Lā Yarji`ūna

It is forbidden for [the people of] any town that We have destroyed [to return to the world]: they shall not return

Hatta itha futihat yajooju wamajooju wahum min kulli hadabin yansiloona

Ĥattá 'Idhā Futiĥat Ya'jūju Wa Ma'jūju Wa Hum Min Kulli Ĥadabin Yansilūna

until when Gog and Magog are let loose, and they race down from every slope

Waiqtaraba alwaAAdu alhaqqu faitha hiya shakhisatun absaru allatheena kafaroo ya waylana qad kunna fee ghaflatin min hatha bal kunna thalimeena

and the true promise draws near [to its fulfillment], behold, the faithless will look on with a fixed gaze: ‘Woe to us! We have certainly been oblivious of this! Indeed, we have been wrongdoers!’

Innakum wama taAAbudoona min dooni Allahi hasabu jahannama antum laha waridoona

Innakum Wa Mā Ta`budūna Min Dūni Allāhi Ĥaşabu Jahannama 'Antum Lahā Wa Aridūna

Law kana haolai alihatan ma waradooha wakullun feeha khalidoona

Law Kāna Hā'uulā' 'Ālihatan Mā Waradūhā Wa Kullun Fīhā Khālidūna

Had they been gods, they would not have entered it, and they will all remain in it [forever]

Lahum feeha zafeerun wahum feeha la yasmaAAoona

Lahum Fīhā Zafīrun Wa Hum Fīhā Lā Yasma`ūna

Their lot therein will be groaning, and they will not hear anything in it

Inna allatheena sabaqat lahum minna alhusna olaika AAanha mubAAadoona

Inna Al-Ladhīna Sabaqat Lahum Minnā Al-Ĥusná 'Ūlā'ika `Anhā Mub`adūna

Indeed those to whom there has gone beforehand [the promise of] the best reward from Us will be kept away from it

La yasmaAAoona haseesaha wahum fee ma ishtahat anfusuhum khalidoona

Lā Yasma`ūna Ĥasīsahā Wa Hum Fī Mā Ashtahat 'Anfusuhum Khālidūna

Lā Yaĥzunuhumu Al-Faza`u Al-'Akbaru Wa Tatalaqqāhumu Al-Malā'ikatu Hādhā Yawmukumu Al-Ladhī Kuntum Tū`adūna

The Great Terror will not upset them, and the angels will receive them [saying]: ‘This is your day which you were promised.’

Yawma natwee alssamaa katayyi alssijlli lilkutubi kama badana awwala khalqin nuAAeeduhu waAAdan AAalayna inna kunna faAAileena

The day We shall roll up the heaven, like rolling of the scrolls [meant] for writings. We will bring it back just as We began the first creation—a promise [binding] on Us. [That] indeed We will do

Walaqad katabna fee alzzaboori min baAAdi alththikri anna alarda yarithuha AAibadiya alssalihoona

Wa Laqad Katabnā Fī Az-Zabūri Min Ba`di Adh-Dhikri 'Anna Al-'Arđa Yarithuhā `Ibādiya Aş-Şāliĥūna

Certainly We wrote in the Psalms, after the Torah: ‘Indeed My righteous servants shall inherit the earth.’

Inna fee hatha labalaghan liqawmin AAabideena

Inna Fī Hādhā Labalāghāan Liqawmin `Ābidīna

There is indeed in this a proclamation for a devout people

Wama arsalnaka illa rahmatan lilAAalameena

Wa Mā 'Arsalnāka 'Illā Raĥmatan Lil`ālamīna

We did not send you but as a mercy to all the nations

Qul innama yooha ilayya annama ilahukum ilahun wahidun fahal antum muslimoona

Qul 'Innamā Yūĥá 'Ilayya 'Annamā 'Ilahukum 'Ilahun Wāĥidun Fahal 'Antum Muslimūna

Say, ‘It has been revealed to me that your God is the One God. So will you submit?’

Fain tawallaw faqul athantukum AAala sawain wain adree aqareebun am baAAeedun ma tooAAadoona

Fa'in Tawallaw Faqul 'Ādhantukum `Alá Sawā'in Wa 'In 'Adrī 'Aqarībun 'Am Ba`īdun Mā Tū`adūna

But if they turn away, say, ‘I have proclaimed to you all alike, and I do not know whether what you have been promised is far or near

Innahu yaAAlamu aljahra mina alqawli wayaAAlamu ma taktumoona

Innahu Ya`lamu Al-Jahra Mina Al-Qawli Wa Ya`lamu Mā Taktumūna

Indeed He knows whatever is spoken aloud, and He knows whatever you conceal

Wain adree laAAallahu fitnatun lakum wamataAAun ila heenin

Wa 'In 'Adrī La`allahu Fitnatun Lakum Wa Matā`un 'Ilá Ĥīnin

I do not know—maybe it is a trial for you and an enjoyment for a while.’

Qala rabbi ohkum bialhaqqi warabbuna alrrahmanu almustaAAanu AAala ma tasifoona

Qāla Rabbi Aĥkum Bil-Ĥaqqi Wa Rabbunā Ar-Raĥmānu Al-Musta`ānu `Alá Mā Taşifūna

He said, ‘My Lord! Judge [between us and the polytheists] with justice.’ ‘Our Lord is the All-beneficent; [He is our] resort against what you allege.’
