تَنزِيلُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡحَكِيمِ ١

Tanzīlul-kitābi minallāhil-ʿazīzil-ḥakīm.

The revelation of the Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] is from Allāh, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ فَٱعۡبُدِ ٱللَّهَ مُخۡلِصٗا لَّهُ ٱلدِّينَ ٢

Innā anzalnā ilaykal-kitāba bil-ḥaqqi faʿbudillāha mukhliṣal lahud-dīn.

Indeed, We have sent down to you the Book, [O Muḥammad], in truth. So worship Allāh, [being] sincere to Him in religion.

أَلَا لِلَّهِ ٱلدِّينُ ٱلۡخَالِصُۚ وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ أَوۡلِيَآءَ مَا نَعۡبُدُهُمۡ إِلَّا لِيُقَرِّبُونَآ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ زُلۡفَىٰٓ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَهُمۡ فِي مَا هُمۡ فِيهِ يَخۡتَلِفُونَۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهۡدِي مَنۡ هُوَ كَٰذِبٞ كَفَّارٞ ٣

Alā lillāhid-dīnul-khāliṣ, wal-ladhīnattakhadhū min dūnihī awliyāʾa mā naʿbuduhum illā liyuqarribūnā ilallāhi zulfā innallāha yaḥkumu baynahum fī mā hum fīhi yakhtalifūn, innallāha lā yahdī man huwa kādhibun kaffār.

Unquestionably, for Allāh is the pure religion.¹ And those who take protectors besides Him [say], "We only worship them that they may bring us nearer to Allāh in position." Indeed, Allāh will judge between them concerning that over which they differ. Indeed, Allāh does not guide he who is a liar and [confirmed] disbeliever.

لَّوۡ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ أَن يَتَّخِذَ وَلَدٗا لَّٱصۡطَفَىٰ مِمَّا يَخۡلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُۚ سُبۡحَٰنَهُۥۖ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡوَٰحِدُ ٱلۡقَهَّارُ ٤

Law arādallāhu ay yattakhidha waladal laṣṭafā mimmā yakhluqu mā yashāʾ, subḥānah, huwallāhul-wāḥidul-qahhār.

If Allāh had intended to take a son, He could have chosen from what He creates whatever He willed. Exalted is He; He is Allāh, the One, the Prevailing.¹

خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ بِٱلۡحَقِّۖ يُكَوِّرُ ٱلَّيۡلَ عَلَى ٱلنَّهَارِ وَيُكَوِّرُ ٱلنَّهَارَ عَلَى ٱلَّيۡلِۖ وَسَخَّرَ ٱلشَّمۡسَ وَٱلۡقَمَرَۖ كُلّٞ يَجۡرِي لِأَجَلٖ مُّسَمًّىۗ أَلَا هُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡغَفَّٰرُ ٥

Khalaqas-samāwāti wal-arḍa bil-ḥaqq, yukawwirul-layla ʿalan-nahāri wa yukawwirun-nahāra ʿalal-layl, wa sakhkharash-shamsa wal-qamar, kulluy yajrī liʾajalim musammā, alā huwal-ʿazīzul-ghaffār.

He created the heavens and earth in truth. He wraps the night over the day and wraps the day over the night and has subjected the sun and the moon, each running [its course] for a specified term. Unquestionably, He is the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver.¹

خَلَقَكُم مِّن نَّفۡسٖ وَٰحِدَةٖ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنۡهَا زَوۡجَهَا وَأَنزَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمِ ثَمَٰنِيَةَ أَزۡوَٰجٖۚ يَخۡلُقُكُمۡ فِي بُطُونِ أُمَّهَٰتِكُمۡ خَلۡقٗا مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ خَلۡقٖ فِي ظُلُمَٰتٖ ثَلَٰثٖۚ ذَٰلِكُمُ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّكُمۡ لَهُ ٱلۡمُلۡكُۖ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُصۡرَفُونَ ٦

Khalaqakum min nafsiw wāḥidatin thumma jaʿala minhā zawjahā wa anzala lakum minal-anʿāmi thamāniyata azwāj, yakhluqukum fī buṭūni ummahātikum khalqam mim baʿdi khalqin fī ẓulumātin thalāth, dhālikumullāhu rabbukum lahul-mulk, lā ilāha illā huw, fa annā tuṣrafūn.

He created you from one soul. Then He made from it its mate, and He produced for you from the grazing livestock eight mates.¹ He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, within three darknesses.² That is Allāh, your Lord; to Him belongs dominion. There is no deity except Him, so how are you averted?

إِن تَكۡفُرُواْ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنكُمۡۖ وَلَا يَرۡضَىٰ لِعِبَادِهِ ٱلۡكُفۡرَۖ وَإِن تَشۡكُرُواْ يَرۡضَهُ لَكُمۡۗ وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٞ وِزۡرَ أُخۡرَىٰۚ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُم مَّرۡجِعُكُمۡ فَيُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَۚ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِيمُۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ ٧

In takfurū fa innallāha ghaniyyun ʿankum, wa lā yarḍā liʿibādihil-kufr, wa in tashkurū yarḍahu lakum, wa lā taziru wāziratuw wizra ukhrā, thumma ilā rabbikum marjiʿukum fayunabbiʾukum bimā kuntum taʿmalūn, innahū ʿalīmum bidhātiṣ-ṣudūr.

If you disbelieve - indeed, Allāh is Free from need of you. And He does not approve for His servants disbelief. And if you are grateful, He approves [i.e., likes] it for you; and no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you about what you used to do. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.

۞ وَإِذَا مَسَّ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ ضُرّٞ دَعَا رَبَّهُۥ مُنِيبًا إِلَيۡهِ ثُمَّ إِذَا خَوَّلَهُۥ نِعۡمَةٗ مِّنۡهُ نَسِيَ مَا كَانَ يَدۡعُوٓاْ إِلَيۡهِ مِن قَبۡلُ وَجَعَلَ لِلَّهِ أَندَادٗا لِّيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦۚ قُلۡ تَمَتَّعۡ بِكُفۡرِكَ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلنَّارِ ٨

Wa idhā massal-insāna ḍurrun daʿā rabbahū munīban ilayhi thumma idhā khawwalahū niʿmatam minhu nasiya mā kāna yadʿū ilayhi min qablu wa jaʿala lillāhi andādal liyuḍilla ʿan sabīlih, qul tamattaʿ bikufrika qalīlan innaka min aṣḥābin-nār.

And when adversity touches man, he calls upon his Lord, turning to Him [alone]; then when He bestows on him a favor from Himself, he forgets Him whom he called upon before,¹ and he attributes to Allāh equals to mislead [people] from His way. Say, "Enjoy your disbelief for a little; indeed, you are of the companions of the Fire."

أَمَّنۡ هُوَ قَٰنِتٌ ءَانَآءَ ٱلَّيۡلِ سَاجِدٗا وَقَآئِمٗا يَحۡذَرُ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَيَرۡجُواْ رَحۡمَةَ رَبِّهِۦۗ قُلۡ هَلۡ يَسۡتَوِي ٱلَّذِينَ يَعۡلَمُونَ وَٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَۗ إِنَّمَا يَتَذَكَّرُ أُوْلُواْ ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ ٩

Amman huwa qānitun ānāʾal-layli sājidaw wa qāʾimay yaḥdharul-ākhirata wa yarjū raḥmata rabbih, qul hal yastawil-ladhīna yaʿlamūna wal-ladhīna lā yaʿlamūn, innamā yatadhakkaru ulul-albāb.

Is one who is devoutly obedient during periods of the night, prostrating and standing [in prayer], fearing the Hereafter and hoping for the mercy of his Lord, [like one who does not]? Say, "Are those who know equal to those who do not know?" Only they will remember [who are] people of understanding.

قُلۡ يَٰعِبَادِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ رَبَّكُمۡۚ لِلَّذِينَ أَحۡسَنُواْ فِي هَٰذِهِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا حَسَنَةٞۗ وَأَرۡضُ ٱللَّهِ وَٰسِعَةٌۗ إِنَّمَا يُوَفَّى ٱلصَّٰبِرُونَ أَجۡرَهُم بِغَيۡرِ حِسَابٖ ١٠

Qul yāʿibādil-ladhīna āmanuttaqū rabbakum, lil-ladhīna aḥsanū fī hādhihid-dunyā ḥasanah, wa arḍullāhi wāsiʿah, innamā yuwaffaṣ-ṣābirūna ajrahum bighayri ḥisāb.

Say,¹ "O My servants who have believed, fear your Lord. For those who do good in this world is good, and the earth of Allāh is spacious. Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account [i.e., limit]."

قُلۡ إِنِّيٓ أُمِرۡتُ أَنۡ أَعۡبُدَ ٱللَّهَ مُخۡلِصٗا لَّهُ ٱلدِّينَ ١١

Qul innī umirtu an aʿbudallāha mukhliṣal lahud-dīn.

Say, [O Muḥammad], "Indeed, I have been commanded to worship Allāh, [being] sincere to Him in religion.

وَأُمِرۡتُ لِأَنۡ أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ ٱلۡمُسۡلِمِينَ ١٢

Wa umirtu liʾan akūna awwalal-muslimīn.

And I have been commanded to be the first [among you] of the Muslims."

قُلۡ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ إِنۡ عَصَيۡتُ رَبِّي عَذَابَ يَوۡمٍ عَظِيمٖ ١٣

Qul innī akhāfu in ʿaṣaytu rabbī ʿadhāba yawmin ʿaẓīm.

Say, "Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."

قُلِ ٱللَّهَ أَعۡبُدُ مُخۡلِصٗا لَّهُۥ دِينِي ١٤

Qulillāha aʿbudu mukhliṣal lahū dīnī.

Say, "Allāh [alone] do I worship, sincere to Him in my religion,

فَٱعۡبُدُواْ مَا شِئۡتُم مِّن دُونِهِۦۗ قُلۡ إِنَّ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓاْ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَأَهۡلِيهِمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۗ أَلَا ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡخُسۡرَانُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ ١٥

Faʿbudū mā shiʾtum min dūnih, qul innal-khāsirīnal-ladhīna khasirū anfusahum wa ahlīhim yawmal-qiyāmah, alā dhālika huwal-khusrānul-mubīn.

So worship what you will besides Him." Say, "Indeed, the losers are the ones who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, that is the manifest loss."

لَهُم مِّن فَوۡقِهِمۡ ظُلَلٞ مِّنَ ٱلنَّارِ وَمِن تَحۡتِهِمۡ ظُلَلٞۚ ذَٰلِكَ يُخَوِّفُ ٱللَّهُ بِهِۦ عِبَادَهُۥۚ يَٰعِبَادِ فَٱتَّقُونِ ١٦

Lahum min fawqihim ẓulalum minan-nāri wa min taḥtihim ẓulal, dhālika yukhawwifullāhu bihī ʿibādah, yāʿibādi fattaqūn.

They will have canopies [i.e., layers] of fire above them and below them, canopies. By that Allāh threatens [i.e., warns] His servants. O My servants, then fear Me.

وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱجۡتَنَبُواْ ٱلطَّٰغُوتَ أَن يَعۡبُدُوهَا وَأَنَابُوٓاْ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ لَهُمُ ٱلۡبُشۡرَىٰۚ فَبَشِّرۡ عِبَادِ ١٧

Wal-ladhīnajtanabuṭ-ṭāghūta ay yaʿbudūhā wa anābū ilallāhi lahumul-bushrā, fabashshir ʿibād.

But those who have avoided ṭāghūt,¹ lest they worship it, and turned back to Allāh - for them are good tidings. So give good tidings to My servants

ٱلَّذِينَ يَسۡتَمِعُونَ ٱلۡقَوۡلَ فَيَتَّبِعُونَ أَحۡسَنَهُۥٓۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ هَدَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُۖ وَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمۡ أُوْلُواْ ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ ١٨

Al-ladhīna yastamiʿūnal-qawla fayattabiʿūna aḥsanah, ulāʾikal-ladhīna hadāhumullāh, wa ulāʾika hum ulul-albāb.

Who listen to speech and follow the best of it. Those are the ones Allāh has guided, and those are people of understanding.

أَفَمَنۡ حَقَّ عَلَيۡهِ كَلِمَةُ ٱلۡعَذَابِ أَفَأَنتَ تُنقِذُ مَن فِي ٱلنَّارِ ١٩

Afaman ḥaqqa ʿalayhi kalimatul-ʿadhābi afaʾanta tunqidhu man fin-nār.

Then, is one who has deserved the decree of punishment [to be guided]? Then, can you save one who is in the Fire?

لَٰكِنِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّقَوۡاْ رَبَّهُمۡ لَهُمۡ غُرَفٞ مِّن فَوۡقِهَا غُرَفٞ مَّبۡنِيَّةٞ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُۖ وَعۡدَ ٱللَّهِ لَا يُخۡلِفُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمِيعَادَ ٢٠

Lākinil-ladhīnattaqaw rabbahum lahum ghurafum min fawqihā ghurafum mabniyyatun tajrī min taḥtihal-anhār, waʿdallāhi lā yukhlifullāhul-mīʿād.

But those who have feared their Lord - for them are chambers,¹ above them chambers built high, beneath which rivers flow. [This is] the promise of Allāh. Allāh does not fail in [His] promise.

أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ أَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءٗ فَسَلَكَهُۥ يَنَٰبِيعَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ثُمَّ يُخۡرِجُ بِهِۦ زَرۡعٗا مُّخۡتَلِفًا أَلۡوَٰنُهُۥ ثُمَّ يَهِيجُ فَتَرَىٰهُ مُصۡفَرّٗا ثُمَّ يَجۡعَلُهُۥ حُطَٰمًاۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَذِكۡرَىٰ لِأُوْلِي ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ ٢١

Alam tara annallāha anzala minas-samāʾi māʾan fasalakahū yanābīʿa fil-arḍi thumma yukhriju bihī zarʿam mukhtalifan alwānuhū thumma yahīju fatarāhu muṣfarran thumma yajʿaluhū ḥuṭāmā, inna fī dhālika ladhikrā liʾulil-albāb.

Do you not see that Allāh sends down rain from the sky and makes it flow as springs [and rivers] in the earth; then He produces thereby crops of varying colors; then they dry and you see them turned yellow; then He makes them [scattered] debris. Indeed in that is a reminder for those of understanding.

أَفَمَن شَرَحَ ٱللَّهُ صَدۡرَهُۥ لِلۡإِسۡلَٰمِ فَهُوَ عَلَىٰ نُورٖ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦۚ فَوَيۡلٞ لِّلۡقَٰسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُم مِّن ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ فِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ ٢٢

Afaman sharaḥallāhu ṣadrahū lil-islāmi fahuwa ʿalā nūrim mir rabbih, fawaylul lil-qāsiyati qulūbuhum min dhikrillāh, ulāʾika fī ḍalālim mubīn.

So is one whose breast Allāh has expanded to [accept] Islām and he is upon [i.e., guided by] a light from his Lord [like one whose heart rejects it]? Then woe to those whose hearts are hardened against the remembrance of Allāh. Those are in manifest error.

ٱللَّهُ نَزَّلَ أَحۡسَنَ ٱلۡحَدِيثِ كِتَٰبٗا مُّتَشَٰبِهٗا مَّثَانِيَ تَقۡشَعِرُّ مِنۡهُ جُلُودُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخۡشَوۡنَ رَبَّهُمۡ ثُمَّ تَلِينُ جُلُودُهُمۡ وَقُلُوبُهُمۡ إِلَىٰ ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُدَى ٱللَّهِ يَهۡدِي بِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُۚ وَمَن يُضۡلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِنۡ هَادٍ ٢٣

Allāhu nazzala aḥsanal-ḥadīthi kitābam mutashābiham mathāniya taqshaʿirru minhu julūdul-ladhīna yakhshawna rabbahum thumma talīnu julūduhum wa qulūbuhum ilā dhikrillāh, dhālika hudallāhi yahdī bihī may yashāʾ, wa may yuḍlilillāhu famā lahū min hād.

Allāh has sent down the best statement: a consistent Book wherein is reiteration. The skins shiver therefrom of those who fear their Lord; then their skins and their hearts relax at the remembrance [i.e., mention] of Allāh. That is the guidance of Allāh by which He guides whom He wills. And one whom Allāh sends astray - for him there is no guide.

أَفَمَن يَتَّقِي بِوَجۡهِهِۦ سُوٓءَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۚ وَقِيلَ لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ ذُوقُواْ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡسِبُونَ ٢٤

Afamay yattaqī biwajhihī sūʾal-ʿadhābi yawmal-qiyāmah, wa qīla liẓ-ẓālimīna dhūqū mā kuntum taksibūn.

Then is he who will shield with his face¹ the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection [like one secure from it]? And it will be said to the wrongdoers, "Taste what you used to earn."

كَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَأَتَىٰهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ لَا يَشۡعُرُونَ ٢٥

Kadhdhabal-ladhīna min qablihim fa atāhumul-ʿadhābu min ḥaythu lā yashʿurūn.

Those before them denied, and punishment came upon them from where they did not perceive.

فَأَذَاقَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡخِزۡيَ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَاۖ وَلَعَذَابُ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ أَكۡبَرُۚ لَوۡ كَانُواْ يَعۡلَمُونَ ٢٦

Fa adhāqahumullāhul-khizya fil-ḥayātid-dunyā, wa laʿadhābul-ākhirati akbar, law kānū yaʿlamūn.

So Allāh made them taste disgrace in worldly life. But the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.

وَلَقَدۡ ضَرَبۡنَا لِلنَّاسِ فِي هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٖ لَّعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ ٢٧

Wa laqad ḍarabnā lin-nāsi fī hādhal-qurʾāni min kulli mathalil laʿallahum yatadhakkarūn.

And We have certainly presented for the people in this Qur’ān from every [kind of] example - that they might remember.

قُرۡءَانًا عَرَبِيًّا غَيۡرَ ذِي عِوَجٖ لَّعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَّقُونَ ٢٨

Qurʾānan ʿarabiyyan ghayra dhī ʿiwajil laʿallahum yattaqūn.

[It is] an Arabic Qur’ān, without any deviance¹ that they might become righteous.²

ضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلٗا رَّجُلٗا فِيهِ شُرَكَآءُ مُتَشَٰكِسُونَ وَرَجُلٗا سَلَمٗا لِّرَجُلٍ هَلۡ يَسۡتَوِيَانِ مَثَلًاۚ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِۚ بَلۡ أَكۡثَرُهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ ٢٩

Ḍaraballāhu mathalar rajulan fīhi shurakāʾu mutashākisūna wa rajulan salamal lirajulin hal yastawiyāni mathalā, al-ḥamdu lillāh, bal aktharuhum lā yaʿlamūn.

Allāh presents an example: a man [i.e., slave] owned by quarreling partners and another belonging exclusively to one man - are they equal in comparison? Praise be to Allāh! But most of them do not know.

إِنَّكَ مَيِّتٞ وَإِنَّهُم مَّيِّتُونَ ٣٠

Innaka mayyituw wa innahum mayyitūn.

Indeed, you are to die, and indeed, they are to die.

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ عِندَ رَبِّكُمۡ تَخۡتَصِمُونَ ٣١

Thumma innakum yawmal-qiyāmati ʿinda rabbikum takhtaṣimūn.

Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, before your Lord, will dispute.

۞ فَمَنۡ أَظۡلَمُ مِمَّن كَذَبَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلصِّدۡقِ إِذۡ جَآءَهُۥٓۚ أَلَيۡسَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ مَثۡوٗى لِّلۡكَٰفِرِينَ ٣٢

Faman aẓlamu mimman kadhaba ʿalallāhi wa kadhdhaba biṣ-ṣidqi idh jāʾah, alaysa fī jahannama mathwal lil-kāfirīn.

So who is more unjust than one who lies about Allāh and denies the truth when it has come to him? Is there not in Hell a residence for the disbelievers?

وَٱلَّذِي جَآءَ بِٱلصِّدۡقِ وَصَدَّقَ بِهِۦٓ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُتَّقُونَ ٣٣

Wal-ladhī jāʾa biṣ-ṣidqi wa ṣaddaqa bihī ulāʾika humul-muttaqūn.

And the one who has brought the truth [i.e., the Prophet (ﷺ)] and [they who] believed in it - those are the righteous.

لَهُم مَّا يَشَآءُونَ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡۚ ذَٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ ٣٤

Lahum mā yashāʾūna ʿinda rabbihim, dhālika jazāʾul-muḥsinīn.

They will have whatever they desire with their Lord. That is the reward of the doers of good -

لِيُكَفِّرَ ٱللَّهُ عَنۡهُمۡ أَسۡوَأَ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلُواْ وَيَجۡزِيَهُمۡ أَجۡرَهُم بِأَحۡسَنِ ٱلَّذِي كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ ٣٥

Liyukaffirallāhu ʿanhum aswaʾal-ladhī ʿamilū wa yajziyahum ajrahum biʾaḥsanil-ladhī kānū yaʿmalūn.

That Allāh may remove from them the worst of what they did and reward them their due for the best of what they used to do.

أَلَيۡسَ ٱللَّهُ بِكَافٍ عَبۡدَهُۥۖ وَيُخَوِّفُونَكَ بِٱلَّذِينَ مِن دُونِهِۦۚ وَمَن يُضۡلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِنۡ هَادٖ ٣٦

Alaysallāhu bikāfin ʿabdah, wa yukhawwifūnaka bil-ladhīna min dūnih, wa may yuḍlilillāhu famā lahū min hād.

Is not Allāh sufficient for His Servant [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)]? And [yet], they threaten you with those [they worship] other than Him. And whoever Allāh leaves astray - for him there is no guide.

وَمَن يَهۡدِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن مُّضِلٍّۗ أَلَيۡسَ ٱللَّهُ بِعَزِيزٖ ذِي ٱنتِقَامٖ ٣٧

Wa may yahdillāhu famā lahū mim muḍill, alaysallāhu biʿazīzin dhintiqām.

And whoever Allāh guides - for him there is no misleader. Is not Allāh Exalted in Might and Owner of Retribution?

وَلَئِن سَأَلۡتَهُم مَّنۡ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ ٱللَّهُۚ قُلۡ أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا تَدۡعُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ إِنۡ أَرَادَنِيَ ٱللَّهُ بِضُرٍّ هَلۡ هُنَّ كَٰشِفَٰتُ ضُرِّهِۦٓ أَوۡ أَرَادَنِي بِرَحۡمَةٍ هَلۡ هُنَّ مُمۡسِكَٰتُ رَحۡمَتِهِۦۚ قُلۡ حَسۡبِيَ ٱللَّهُۖ عَلَيۡهِ يَتَوَكَّلُ ٱلۡمُتَوَكِّلُونَ ٣٨

Wa laʾin saʾaltahum man khalaqas-samāwāti wal-arḍa layaqūlunnallāh, qul afaraʾaytum mā tadʿūna min dūnillāhi in arādaniyallāhu biḍurrin hal hunna kāshifātu ḍurrihī aw arādanī biraḥmatin hal hunna mumsikātu raḥmatih, qul ḥasbiyallāh, ʿalayhi yatawakkalul-mutawakkilūn.

And if you asked them, "Who created the heavens and the earth?" they would surely say, "Allāh." Say, "Then have you considered¹ what you invoke besides Allāh? If Allāh intended me harm, are they removers of His harm; or if He intended me mercy, are they withholders of His mercy?" Say, "Sufficient for me is Allāh; upon Him [alone] rely the [wise] reliers."

قُلۡ يَٰقَوۡمِ ٱعۡمَلُواْ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِكُمۡ إِنِّي عَٰمِلٞۖ فَسَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَ ٣٩

Qul yāqawmiʿmalū ʿalā makānatikum innī ʿāmil, fasawfa taʿlamūn.

Say, "O my people, work according to your position, [for] indeed, I am working; and you are going to know

مَن يَأۡتِيهِ عَذَابٞ يُخۡزِيهِ وَيَحِلُّ عَلَيۡهِ عَذَابٞ مُّقِيمٌ ٤٠

May yaʾtīhi ʿadhābuy yukhzīhi wa yaḥillu ʿalayhi ʿadhābum muqīm.

To whom will come a torment disgracing him and on whom will descend an enduring punishment."

إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَيۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ لِلنَّاسِ بِٱلۡحَقِّۖ فَمَنِ ٱهۡتَدَىٰ فَلِنَفۡسِهِۦۖ وَمَن ضَلَّ فَإِنَّمَا يَضِلُّ عَلَيۡهَاۖ وَمَآ أَنتَ عَلَيۡهِم بِوَكِيلٍ ٤١

Innā anzalnā ʿalaykal-kitāba lin-nāsi bil-ḥaqq, famanihtadā falinafsih, wa man ḍalla fa innamā yaḍillu ʿalayhā, wa mā anta ʿalayhim biwakīl.

Indeed, We sent down to you the Book for the people in truth. So whoever is guided - it is for [the benefit of] his soul; and whoever goes astray only goes astray to its detriment. And you are not a manager [i.e., authority] over them.

ٱللَّهُ يَتَوَفَّى ٱلۡأَنفُسَ حِينَ مَوۡتِهَا وَٱلَّتِي لَمۡ تَمُتۡ فِي مَنَامِهَاۖ فَيُمۡسِكُ ٱلَّتِي قَضَىٰ عَلَيۡهَا ٱلۡمَوۡتَ وَيُرۡسِلُ ٱلۡأُخۡرَىٰٓ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٖ مُّسَمًّىۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَٰتٖ لِّقَوۡمٖ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ٤٢

Allāhu yatawaffal-anfusa ḥīna mawtihā wal-latī lam tamut fī manāmihā, fayumsikul-latī qaḍā ʿalayhal-mawta wa yursilul-ukhrā ilā ajalim musammā, inna fī dhālika laʾāyātil liqawmiy yatafakkarūn.

Allāh takes the souls at the time of their death, and those that do not die [He takes] during their sleep. Then He keeps those for which He has decreed death and releases the others for a specified term. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.

أَمِ ٱتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ شُفَعَآءَۚ قُلۡ أَوَلَوۡ كَانُواْ لَا يَمۡلِكُونَ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا يَعۡقِلُونَ ٤٣

Amittakhadhū min dūnillāhi shufaʿāʾ, qul awalaw kānū lā yamlikūna shayʾaw wa lā yaʿqilūn.

Or have they taken other than Allāh as intercessors? Say, "Even though they do not possess [power over] anything, nor do they reason?"

قُل لِّلَّهِ ٱلشَّفَٰعَةُ جَمِيعٗاۖ لَّهُۥ مُلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ ٤٤

Qul lillāhish-shafāʿatu jamīʿā, lahū mulkus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, thumma ilayhi turjaʿūn.

Say, "To Allāh belongs [the right to allow] intercession entirely. To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. Then to Him you will be returned."

وَإِذَا ذُكِرَ ٱللَّهُ وَحۡدَهُ ٱشۡمَأَزَّتۡ قُلُوبُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱلۡأٓخِرَةِۖ وَإِذَا ذُكِرَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ إِذَا هُمۡ يَسۡتَبۡشِرُونَ ٤٥

Wa idhā dhukirallāhu waḥdahushmaʾazzat qulūbul-ladhīna lā yuʾminūna bil-ākhirah, wa idhā dhukiral-ladhīna min dūnihī idhā hum yastabshirūn.

And when Allāh is mentioned alone, the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter shrink with aversion, but when those [worshipped] other than Him are mentioned, immediately they rejoice.

قُلِ ٱللَّهُمَّ فَاطِرَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ عَٰلِمَ ٱلۡغَيۡبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ أَنتَ تَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَ عِبَادِكَ فِي مَا كَانُواْ فِيهِ يَخۡتَلِفُونَ ٤٦

Qulillāhumma fāṭiras-samāwāti wal-arḍi ʿālimal-ghaybi wash-shahādati anta taḥkumu bayna ʿibādika fī mā kānū fīhi yakhtalifūn.

Say, "O Allāh, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, You will judge between your servants concerning that over which they used to differ."

وَلَوۡ أَنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ مَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ جَمِيعٗا وَمِثۡلَهُۥ مَعَهُۥ لَٱفۡتَدَوۡاْ بِهِۦ مِن سُوٓءِ ٱلۡعَذَابِ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۚ وَبَدَا لَهُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَمۡ يَكُونُواْ يَحۡتَسِبُونَ ٤٧

Wa law anna lil-ladhīna ẓalamū mā fil-arḍi jamīʿaw wa mithlahū maʿahū laftadaw bihī min sūʾil-ʿadhābi yawmal-qiyāmah, wa badā lahum minallāhi mā lam yakūnū yaḥtasibūn.

And if those who did wrong had all that is in the earth entirely and the like of it with it, they would [attempt to] ransom themselves thereby from the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection. And there will appear to them from Allāh that which they had not taken into account.¹

وَبَدَا لَهُمۡ سَيِّـَٔاتُ مَا كَسَبُواْ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ ٤٨

Wa badā lahum sayyiʾātu mā kasabū wa ḥāqa bihim mā kānū bihī yastahziʾūn.

And there will appear to them the evils they had earned, and they will be enveloped by what they used to ridicule.

فَإِذَا مَسَّ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ ضُرّٞ دَعَانَا ثُمَّ إِذَا خَوَّلۡنَٰهُ نِعۡمَةٗ مِّنَّا قَالَ إِنَّمَآ أُوتِيتُهُۥ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمِۭۚ بَلۡ هِيَ فِتۡنَةٞ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ ٤٩

Fa idhā massal-insāna ḍurrun daʿānā thumma idhā khawwalnāhu niʿmatam minnā qāla innamā ūtītuhū ʿalā ʿilm, bal hiya fitnatuw wa lākinna aktharahum lā yaʿlamūn.

And when adversity touches man, he calls upon Us; then when We bestow on him a favor from Us, he says, "I have only been given it because of [my] knowledge." Rather, it is a trial, but most of them do not know.

قَدۡ قَالَهَا ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَمَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يَكۡسِبُونَ ٥٠

Qad qālahal-ladhīna min qablihim famā aghnā ʿanhum mā kānū yaksibūn.

Those before them had already said it, but they were not availed by what they used to earn.

فَأَصَابَهُمۡ سَيِّـَٔاتُ مَا كَسَبُواْۚ وَٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ مِنۡ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ سَيُصِيبُهُمۡ سَيِّـَٔاتُ مَا كَسَبُواْ وَمَا هُم بِمُعۡجِزِينَ ٥١

Fa aṣābahum sayyiʾātu mā kasabū, wal-ladhīna ẓalamū min hāʾulāʾi sayuṣībuhum sayyiʾātu mā kasabū wa mā hum bimuʿjizīn.

And the evil consequences of what they earned struck them. And those who have wronged of these [people] will be struck [i.e., afflicted] by the evil consequences of what they earned; and they will not cause failure.¹

أَوَلَمۡ يَعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَبۡسُطُ ٱلرِّزۡقَ لِمَن يَشَآءُ وَيَقۡدِرُۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَٰتٖ لِّقَوۡمٖ يُؤۡمِنُونَ ٥٢

Awalam yaʿlamū annallāha yabsuṭur-rizqa limay yashāʾu wa yaqdir, inna fī dhālika laʾāyātil liqawmiy yuʾminūn.

Do they not know that Allāh extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it]? Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe.

۞ قُلۡ يَٰعِبَادِيَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسۡرَفُواْ عَلَىٰٓ أَنفُسِهِمۡ لَا تَقۡنَطُواْ مِن رَّحۡمَةِ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَغۡفِرُ ٱلذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًاۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ٥٣

Qul yāʿibādiyal-ladhīna asrafū ʿalā anfusihim lā taqnaṭū mir raḥmatillāh, innallāha yaghfirudh-dhunūba jamīʿā, innahū huwal-ghafūrur-raḥīm.

Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allāh. Indeed, Allāh forgives all sins.¹ Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."

وَأَنِيبُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمۡ وَأَسۡلِمُواْ لَهُۥ مِن قَبۡلِ أَن يَأۡتِيَكُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ ثُمَّ لَا تُنصَرُونَ ٥٤

Wa anībū ilā rabbikum wa aslimū lahū min qabli ay yaʾtiyakumul-ʿadhābu thumma lā tunṣarūn.

And return [in repentance] to your Lord and submit to Him before the punishment comes upon you; then you will not be helped.

وَٱتَّبِعُوٓاْ أَحۡسَنَ مَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُم مِّن قَبۡلِ أَن يَأۡتِيَكُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ بَغۡتَةٗ وَأَنتُمۡ لَا تَشۡعُرُونَ ٥٥

Wattabiʿū aḥsana mā unzila ilaykum mir rabbikum min qabli ay yaʾtiyakumul-ʿadhābu baghtataw wa antum lā tashʿurūn.

And follow the best of what was revealed to you from your Lord [i.e., the Qur’ān] before the punishment comes upon you suddenly while you do not perceive,

أَن تَقُولَ نَفۡسٞ يَٰحَسۡرَتَىٰ عَلَىٰ مَا فَرَّطتُ فِي جَنۢبِ ٱللَّهِ وَإِن كُنتُ لَمِنَ ٱلسَّٰخِرِينَ ٥٦

An taqūla nafsuy yāḥasratā ʿalā mā farraṭtu fī janbillāhi wa in kuntu laminas-sākhirīn.

Lest a soul should say,¹ "Oh, [how great is] my regret over what I neglected in regard to Allāh and that I was among the mockers."

أَوۡ تَقُولَ لَوۡ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هَدَىٰنِي لَكُنتُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ ٥٧

Aw taqūla law annallāha hadānī lakuntu minal-muttaqīn.

Or [lest] it say, "If only Allāh had guided me, I would have been among the righteous."

أَوۡ تَقُولَ حِينَ تَرَى ٱلۡعَذَابَ لَوۡ أَنَّ لِي كَرَّةٗ فَأَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ ٥٨

Aw taqūla ḥīna taral-ʿadhāba law anna lī karratan fa akūna minal-muḥsinīn.

Or [lest] it say when it sees the punishment, "If only I had another turn¹ so I could be among the doers of good."

بَلَىٰ قَدۡ جَآءَتۡكَ ءَايَٰتِي فَكَذَّبۡتَ بِهَا وَٱسۡتَكۡبَرۡتَ وَكُنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ ٥٩

Balā qad jāʾatka āyātī fakadhdhabta bihā wastakbarta wa kunta minal-kāfirīn.

But yes, there had come to you My verses, but you denied them and were arrogant, and you were among the disbelievers.

وَيَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ تَرَى ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَبُواْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ وُجُوهُهُم مُّسۡوَدَّةٌۚ أَلَيۡسَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ مَثۡوٗى لِّلۡمُتَكَبِّرِينَ ٦٠

Wa yawmal-qiyāmati taral-ladhīna kadhabū ʿalallāhi wujūhuhum muswaddah, alaysa fī jahannama mathwal lil-mutakabbirīn.

And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied about Allāh [with] their faces blackened. Is there not in Hell a residence for the arrogant?

وَيُنَجِّي ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّقَوۡاْ بِمَفَازَتِهِمۡ لَا يَمَسُّهُمُ ٱلسُّوٓءُ وَلَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ ٦١

Wa yunajjillāhul-ladhīnattaqaw bimafāzatihim lā yamassuhumus-sūʾu wa lā hum yaḥzanūn.

And Allāh will save those who feared Him by their attainment;¹ no evil will touch them, nor will they grieve.

ٱللَّهُ خَٰلِقُ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖۖ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ وَكِيلٞ ٦٢

Allāhu khāliqu kulli shayʾ, wa huwa ʿalā kulli shayʾiw wakīl.

Allāh is the Creator of all things, and He is, over all things, Disposer of affairs.

لَّهُۥ مَقَالِيدُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۗ وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡخَٰسِرُونَ ٦٣

Lahū maqālīdus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wal-ladhīna kafarū biʾāyātillāhi ulāʾika humul-khāsirūn.

To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth. And they who disbelieve in the verses of Allāh - it is those who are the losers.

قُلۡ أَفَغَيۡرَ ٱللَّهِ تَأۡمُرُوٓنِّيٓ أَعۡبُدُ أَيُّهَا ٱلۡجَٰهِلُونَ ٦٤

Qul afaghayrallāhi taʾmurūnnī aʿbudu ayyuhal-jāhilūn.

Say, [O Muḥammad], "Is it other than Allāh that you order me to worship, O ignorant ones?"

وَلَقَدۡ أُوحِيَ إِلَيۡكَ وَإِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِكَ لَئِنۡ أَشۡرَكۡتَ لَيَحۡبَطَنَّ عَمَلُكَ وَلَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ ٦٥

Wa laqad ūḥiya ilayka wa ilal-ladhīna min qablika laʾin ashrakta layaḥbaṭanna ʿamaluka wa latakūnanna minal-khāsirīn.

And it was already revealed to you and to those before you that if you should associate [anything] with Allāh, your work would surely become worthless, and you would surely be among the losers.

بَلِ ٱللَّهَ فَٱعۡبُدۡ وَكُن مِّنَ ٱلشَّٰكِرِينَ ٦٦

Balillāha faʿbud wa kum minash-shākirīn.

Rather, worship [only] Allāh and be among the grateful.

وَمَا قَدَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدۡرِهِۦ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ جَمِيعٗا قَبۡضَتُهُۥ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ وَٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتُ مَطۡوِيَّٰتُۢ بِيَمِينِهِۦۚ سُبۡحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشۡرِكُونَ ٦٧

Wa mā qadarullāha ḥaqqa qadrihī wal-arḍu jamīʿan qabḍatuhū yawmal-qiyāmati was-samāwātu maṭwiyyātum biyamīnih, subḥānahū wa taʿālā ʿammā yushrikūn.

They have not appraised Allāh with true appraisal,¹ while the earth entirely will be [within] His grip² on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand.³ Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him.

وَنُفِخَ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَصَعِقَ مَن فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَن فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ إِلَّا مَن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُۖ ثُمَّ نُفِخَ فِيهِ أُخۡرَىٰ فَإِذَا هُمۡ قِيَامٞ يَنظُرُونَ ٦٨

Wa nufikha fiṣ-ṣūri faṣaʿiqa man fis-samāwāti wa man fil-arḍi illā man shāʾallāh, thumma nufikha fīhi ukhrā fa idhā hum qiyāmuy yanẓurūn.

And the Horn will be blown, and whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth will fall dead except whom Allāh wills. Then it will be blown again, and at once they will be standing, looking on.

وَأَشۡرَقَتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ بِنُورِ رَبِّهَا وَوُضِعَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبُ وَجِاْيٓءَ بِٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ وَٱلشُّهَدَآءِ وَقُضِيَ بَيۡنَهُم بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَهُمۡ لَا يُظۡلَمُونَ ٦٩

Wa ashraqatil-arḍu binūri rabbihā wa wuḍiʿal-kitābu wa jīʾa bin-nabiyyīna wash-shuhadāʾi wa quḍiya baynahum bil-ḥaqqi wa hum lā yuẓlamūn.

And the earth will shine with the light of its Lord, and the record [of deeds] will be placed, and the prophets and the witnesses will be brought, and it will be judged between them in truth, and they will not be wronged.

وَوُفِّيَتۡ كُلُّ نَفۡسٖ مَّا عَمِلَتۡ وَهُوَ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يَفۡعَلُونَ ٧٠

Wa wuffiyat kullu nafsim mā ʿamilat wa huwa aʿlamu bimā yafʿalūn.

And every soul will be fully compensated [for] what it did; and He is most knowing¹ of what they do.

وَسِيقَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ زُمَرًاۖ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءُوهَا فُتِحَتۡ أَبۡوَٰبُهَا وَقَالَ لَهُمۡ خَزَنَتُهَآ أَلَمۡ يَأۡتِكُمۡ رُسُلٞ مِّنكُمۡ يَتۡلُونَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّكُمۡ وَيُنذِرُونَكُمۡ لِقَآءَ يَوۡمِكُمۡ هَٰذَاۚ قَالُواْ بَلَىٰ وَلَٰكِنۡ حَقَّتۡ كَلِمَةُ ٱلۡعَذَابِ عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ ٧١

Wa sīqal-ladhīna kafarū ilā jahannama zumarā, ḥattā idhā jāʾūhā futiḥat abwābuhā wa qāla lahum khazanatuhā alam yaʾtikum rusulum minkum yatlūna ʿalaykum āyāti rabbikum wa yundhirūnakum liqāʾa yawmikum hādhā, qālū balā wa lākin ḥaqqat kalimatul-ʿadhābi ʿalal-kāfirīn.

And those who disbelieved will be driven to Hell in groups until, when they reach it, its gates are opened and its keepers will say, "Did there not come to you messengers from yourselves, reciting to you the verses of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours?" They will say, "Yes, but the word [i.e., decree] of punishment has come into effect upon the disbelievers."

قِيلَ ٱدۡخُلُوٓاْ أَبۡوَٰبَ جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَاۖ فَبِئۡسَ مَثۡوَى ٱلۡمُتَكَبِّرِينَ ٧٢

Qīladkhulū abwāba jahannama khālidīna fīhā, fabiʾsa mathwal-mutakabbirīn.

[To them] it will be said, "Enter the gates of Hell to abide eternally therein, and wretched is the residence of the arrogant."

وَسِيقَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّقَوۡاْ رَبَّهُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡجَنَّةِ زُمَرًاۖ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءُوهَا وَفُتِحَتۡ أَبۡوَٰبُهَا وَقَالَ لَهُمۡ خَزَنَتُهَا سَلَٰمٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡ طِبۡتُمۡ فَٱدۡخُلُوهَا خَٰلِدِينَ ٧٣

Wa sīqal-ladhīnattaqaw rabbahum ilal-jannati zumarā, ḥattā idhā jāʾūhā wa futiḥat abwābuhā wa qāla lahum khazanatuhā salāmun ʿalaykum ṭibtum fadkhulūhā khālidīn.

But those who feared their Lord will be driven to Paradise in groups until, when they reach it while its gates have been opened and its keepers say, "Peace be upon you; you have become pure; so enter it to abide eternally therein," [they will enter].¹

وَقَالُواْ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي صَدَقَنَا وَعۡدَهُۥ وَأَوۡرَثَنَا ٱلۡأَرۡضَ نَتَبَوَّأُ مِنَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ حَيۡثُ نَشَآءُۖ فَنِعۡمَ أَجۡرُ ٱلۡعَٰمِلِينَ ٧٤

Wa qālul-ḥamdu lillāhil-ladhī ṣadaqanā waʿdahū wa awrathanal-arḍa natabawwaʾu minal-jannati ḥaythu nashāʾ, faniʿma ajrul-ʿāmilīn.

And they will say, "Praise to Allāh, who has fulfilled for us His promise and made us inherit the earth [so] we may settle in Paradise wherever we will. And excellent is the reward of [righteous] workers."

وَتَرَى ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ حَآفِّينَ مِنۡ حَوۡلِ ٱلۡعَرۡشِ يُسَبِّحُونَ بِحَمۡدِ رَبِّهِمۡۚ وَقُضِيَ بَيۡنَهُم بِٱلۡحَقِّۚ وَقِيلَ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٧٥

Wa taral-malāʾikata ḥāffīna min ḥawlil-ʿarshi yusabbiḥūna biḥamdi rabbihim, wa quḍiya baynahum bil-ḥaqq, wa qīlal-ḥamdu lillāhi rabbil-ʿālamīn.

And you will see the angels surrounding the Throne, exalting [Allāh] with praise of their Lord. And it will be judged between them in truth, and it will be said, "[All] praise to Allāh, Lord of the worlds."
