037. Those drawn up in Ranks – As-Saaffaat

in
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ﴿٠﴾
وَٱلصَّٰٓفَّٰتِ صَفًّا ﴿١﴾
I swear by those who draw themselves out in ranks
فَٱلزَّٰجِرَٰتِ زَجْرًا ﴿٢﴾
Then those who drive away with reproof,
فَٱلتَّٰلِيَٰتِ ذِكْرًا ﴿٣﴾
Then those who recite, being mindful,
إِنَّ إِلَٰهَكُمْ لَوَٰحِدٌ ﴿٤﴾
Most surely your Allah is One:
رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَرَبُّ ٱلْمَشَٰرِقِ ﴿٥﴾
The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, and Lord of the easts.
إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا ٱلسَّمَآءَ ٱلدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ ٱلْكَوَاكِبِ ﴿٦﴾
Surely We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment, the stars,
وَحِفْظًا مِّن كُلِّ شَيْطَٰنٍ مَّارِدٍ ﴿٧﴾
And (there is) a safeguard against every rebellious Shaitan.
لَّا يَسَّمَّعُونَ إِلَى ٱلْمَلَإِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ وَيُقْذَفُونَ مِن كُلِّ جَانِبٍ ﴿٨﴾
They cannot listen to the exalted assembly and they are thrown at from every side,
دُحُورًا وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَاصِبٌ ﴿٩﴾
Being driven off, and for them is a perpetual chastisement,
إِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ ٱلْخَطْفَةَ فَأَتْبَعَهُۥ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ ﴿١٠﴾
Except him who snatches off but once, then there follows him a brightly shining flame.
فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَهُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَم مَّنْ خَلَقْنَآ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَٰهُم مِّن طِينٍ لَّازِبٍۭ ﴿١١﴾
Then ask them whether they are stronger in creation or those (others) whom We have created. Surely We created them of firm clay.
بَلْ عَجِبْتَ وَيَسْخَرُونَ ﴿١٢﴾
Nay! you wonder while they mock,
وَإِذَا ذُكِّرُوا۟ لَا يَذْكُرُونَ ﴿١٣﴾
And when they are reminded, they mind not,
وَإِذَا رَأَوْا۟ ءَايَةً يَسْتَسْخِرُونَ ﴿١٤﴾
And when they see a sign they incite one another to scoff,
وَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ ﴿١٥﴾
And they say: This is nothing but clear magic:
أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ ﴿١٦﴾
What! when we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then certainly be raised,
أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ ﴿١٧﴾
Or our fathers of yore?
قُلْ نَعَمْ وَأَنتُمْ دَٰخِرُونَ ﴿١٨﴾
Say: Aye! and you shall be abject.
فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ فَإِذَا هُمْ يَنظُرُونَ ﴿١٩﴾
So it shall only be a single cry, when lo! they shall see.
وَقَالُوا۟ يَٰوَيْلَنَا هَٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ﴿٢٠﴾
And they shall say: O woe to us! this is the day of requital.
هَٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ ﴿٢١﴾
This is the day of the judgment which you called a lie.
ٱحْشُرُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ وَأَزْوَٰجَهُمْ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْبُدُونَ ﴿٢٢﴾
Gather together those who were unjust and their associates, and what they used to worship
مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَٱهْدُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ ﴿٢٣﴾
Besides Allah, then lead them to the way to hell.
وَقِفُوهُمْ إِنَّهُم مَّسْـُٔولُونَ ﴿٢٤﴾
And stop them, for they shall be questioned:
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنَاصَرُونَ ﴿٢٥﴾
What is the matter with you that you do not help each other?
بَلْ هُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ مُسْتَسْلِمُونَ ﴿٢٦﴾
Nay! on that day they shall be submissive.
وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ ﴿٢٧﴾
And some of them shall advance towards others, questioning each other.
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ تَأْتُونَنَا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ﴿٢٨﴾
They shall say: Surely you used to come to us from the right side.
قَالُوا۟ بَل لَّمْ تَكُونُوا۟ مُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿٢٩﴾
They shall say: Nay, you (yourselves) were not believers;
وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا عَلَيْكُم مِّن سُلْطَٰنٍۭ بَلْ كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا طَٰغِينَ ﴿٣٠﴾
And we had no authority over you, but you were an inordinate people;
فَحَقَّ عَلَيْنَا قَوْلُ رَبِّنَآ إِنَّا لَذَآئِقُونَ ﴿٣١﴾
So the sentence of our Lord has come to pass against us: (now) we shall surely taste;
فَأَغْوَيْنَٰكُمْ إِنَّا كُنَّا غَٰوِينَ ﴿٣٢﴾
So we led you astray, for we ourselves were erring.
فَإِنَّهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ ﴿٣٣﴾
So they shall on that day be sharers in the chastisement one with another.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ ﴿٣٤﴾
Surely thus do We deal with the guilty.
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوٓا۟ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ ﴿٣٥﴾
Surely they used to behave proudly when it was said to them: There is no god but Allah;
وَيَقُولُونَ أَئِنَّا لَتَارِكُوٓا۟ ءَالِهَتِنَا لِشَاعِرٍ مَّجْنُونٍۭ ﴿٣٦﴾
And to say: What! shall we indeed give up our gods for the sake of a mad poet?
بَلْ جَآءَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَصَدَّقَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿٣٧﴾
Nay: he has come with the truth and verified the apostles.
إِنَّكُمْ لَذَآئِقُوا۟ ٱلْعَذَابِ ٱلْأَلِيمِ ﴿٣٨﴾
Most surely you will taste the painful punishment.
وَمَا تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿٣٩﴾
And you shall not be rewarded except (for) what you did.
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ ﴿٤٠﴾
Save the servants of Allah, the purified ones.
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ رِزْقٌ مَّعْلُومٌ ﴿٤١﴾
For them is a known sustenance,
فَوَٰكِهُ وَهُم مُّكْرَمُونَ ﴿٤٢﴾
Fruits, and they shall be highly honored,
فِى جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ﴿٤٣﴾
In gardens of pleasure,
عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مُّتَقَٰبِلِينَ ﴿٤٤﴾
On thrones, facing each other.
يُطَافُ عَلَيْهِم بِكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍۭ ﴿٤٥﴾
A bowl shall be made to go round them from water running out of springs,
بَيْضَآءَ لَذَّةٍ لِّلشَّٰرِبِينَ ﴿٤٦﴾
White, delicious to those who drink.
لَا فِيهَا غَوْلٌ وَلَا هُمْ عَنْهَا يُنزَفُونَ ﴿٤٧﴾
There shall be no trouble in it, nor shall they be exhausted therewith.
وَعِندَهُمْ قَٰصِرَٰتُ ٱلطَّرْفِ عِينٌ ﴿٤٨﴾
And with them shall be those who restrain the eyes, having beautiful eyes;
كَأَنَّهُنَّ بَيْضٌ مَّكْنُونٌ ﴿٤٩﴾
As if they were eggs carefully protected.
فَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ ﴿٥٠﴾
Then shall some of them advance to others, questioning each other.
قَالَ قَآئِلٌ مِّنْهُمْ إِنِّى كَانَ لِى قَرِينٌ ﴿٥١﴾
A speaker from among them shall say: Surely I had a comrade of mine,
يَقُولُ أَءِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُصَدِّقِينَ ﴿٥٢﴾
Who said: What! are you indeed of those who accept (the truth)?
أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَدِينُونَ ﴿٥٣﴾
What! when we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then be certainly brought to judgment?
قَالَ هَلْ أَنتُم مُّطَّلِعُونَ ﴿٥٤﴾
He shall say: Will you look on?
فَٱطَّلَعَ فَرَءَاهُ فِى سَوَآءِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ ﴿٥٥﴾
Then he looked down and saw him in the midst of hell.
قَالَ تَٱللَّهِ إِن كِدتَّ لَتُرْدِينِ ﴿٥٦﴾
He shall say: By Allah! you had almost caused me to perish;
وَلَوْلَا نِعْمَةُ رَبِّى لَكُنتُ مِنَ ٱلْمُحْضَرِينَ ﴿٥٧﴾
And had it not been for the favor of my Lord, I would certainly have been among those brought up.
أَفَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَيِّتِينَ ﴿٥٨﴾
Is it then that we are not going to die,
إِلَّا مَوْتَتَنَا ٱلْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِينَ ﴿٥٩﴾
Except our previous death? And we shall not be chastised?
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ ﴿٦٠﴾
Most surely this is the mighty achievement.
لِمِثْلِ هَٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ ٱلْعَٰمِلُونَ ﴿٦١﴾
For the like of this then let the workers work.
أَذَٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ نُّزُلًا أَمْ شَجَرَةُ ٱلزَّقُّومِ ﴿٦٢﴾
Is this better as an entertainment or the tree of Zaqqum?
إِنَّا جَعَلْنَٰهَا فِتْنَةً لِّلظَّٰلِمِينَ ﴿٦٣﴾
Surely We have made it to be a trial to the unjust.
إِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٌ تَخْرُجُ فِىٓ أَصْلِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ ﴿٦٤﴾
Surely it is a tree that-grows in the bottom of the hell;
طَلْعُهَا كَأَنَّهُۥ رُءُوسُ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِ ﴿٦٥﴾
Its produce is as it were the heads of the serpents.
فَإِنَّهُمْ لَءَاكِلُونَ مِنْهَا فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنْهَا ٱلْبُطُونَ ﴿٦٦﴾
Then most surely they shall eat of it and fill (their) bellies with it.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا لَشَوْبًا مِّنْ حَمِيمٍ ﴿٦٧﴾
Then most surely they shall have after it to drink of a mixture prepared in boiling water.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ مَرْجِعَهُمْ لَإِلَى ٱلْجَحِيمِ ﴿٦٨﴾
Then most surely their return shall be to hell.
إِنَّهُمْ أَلْفَوْا۟ ءَابَآءَهُمْ ضَآلِّينَ ﴿٦٩﴾
Surely they found their fathers going astray,
فَهُمْ عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِمْ يُهْرَعُونَ ﴿٧٠﴾
So in their footsteps they are being hastened on.
وَلَقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ أَكْثَرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿٧١﴾
And certainly most of the ancients went astray before them,
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا فِيهِم مُّنذِرِينَ ﴿٧٢﴾
And certainly We sent among them warners.
فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ ﴿٧٣﴾
Then see how was the end of those warned,
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ ﴿٧٤﴾
Except the servants of Allah, the purified ones.
وَلَقَدْ نَادَىٰنَا نُوحٌ فَلَنِعْمَ ٱلْمُجِيبُونَ ﴿٧٥﴾
And Nuh did certainly call upon Us, and most excellent answerer of prayer are We.
وَنَجَّيْنَٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ﴿٧٦﴾
And We delivered him and his followers from the mighty distress.
وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُۥ هُمُ ٱلْبَاقِينَ ﴿٧٧﴾
And We made his offspring the survivors.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ﴿٧٨﴾
And We perpetuated to him (praise) among the later generations.
سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰ نُوحٍ فِى ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ ﴿٧٩﴾
Peace and salutation to Nuh among the nations.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ﴿٨٠﴾
Thus do We surely reward the doers of good.
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿٨١﴾
Surely he was of Our believing servants.
ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا ٱلْءَاخَرِينَ ﴿٨٢﴾
Then We drowned the others
وَإِنَّ مِن شِيعَتِهِۦ لَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ ﴿٨٣﴾
And most surely Ibrahim followed his way.
إِذْ جَآءَ رَبَّهُۥ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ ﴿٨٤﴾
When he came to his Lord with a free heart,
إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِۦ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُونَ ﴿٨٥﴾
When he said to his father and his people: What is it that you worship?
أَئِفْكًا ءَالِهَةً دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ ﴿٨٦﴾
A lie– gods besides Allah– do you desire?
فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ ﴿٨٧﴾
What is then your idea about the Lord of the worlds?
فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِى ٱلنُّجُومِ ﴿٨٨﴾
Then he looked at the stars, looking up once,
فَقَالَ إِنِّى سَقِيمٌ ﴿٨٩﴾
Then he said: Surely I am sick (of your worshipping these).
فَتَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِينَ ﴿٩٠﴾
So they went away from him, turning back.
فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ ﴿٩١﴾
Then he turned aside to their gods secretly and said: What! do you not eat?
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنطِقُونَ ﴿٩٢﴾
What is the matter with you that you do not speak?
فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًۢا بِٱلْيَمِينِ ﴿٩٣﴾
Then he turned against them secretly, smiting them with the right hand.
فَأَقْبَلُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّونَ ﴿٩٤﴾
So they (people) advanced towards him, hastening.
قَالَ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَنْحِتُونَ ﴿٩٥﴾
Said he: What! do you worship what you hew out?
وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿٩٦﴾
And Allah has created you and what you make.
قَالُوا۟ ٱبْنُوا۟ لَهُۥ بُنْيَٰنًا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِى ٱلْجَحِيمِ ﴿٩٧﴾
They said: Build for him a furnace, then cast him into the burning fire.
فَأَرَادُوا۟ بِهِۦ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمُ ٱلْأَسْفَلِينَ ﴿٩٨﴾
And they desired a war against him, but We brought them low.
وَقَالَ إِنِّى ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّى سَيَهْدِينِ ﴿٩٩﴾
And he said: Surely I fly to my lord; He will guide me.
رَبِّ هَبْ لِى مِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ ﴿١٠٠﴾
My Lord! grant me of the doers of good deeds.
فَبَشَّرْنَٰهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ حَلِيمٍ ﴿١٠١﴾
So We gave him the good news of a boy, possessing forbearance.
فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ ٱلسَّعْىَ قَالَ يَٰبُنَىَّ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰ فِى ٱلْمَنَامِ أَنِّىٓ أَذْبَحُكَ فَٱنظُرْ مَاذَا تَرَىٰ قَالَ يَٰٓأَبَتِ ٱفْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُ سَتَجِدُنِىٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ ﴿١٠٢﴾
And when he attained to working with him, he said: O my son! surely I have seen in a dream that I should sacrifice you; consider then what you see. He said: O my father! do what you are commanded; if Allah please, you will find me of the patient ones.
فَلَمَّآ أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلْجَبِينِ ﴿١٠٣﴾
So when they both submitted and he threw him down upon his forehead,
وَنَٰدَيْنَٰهُ أَن يَٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ ﴿١٠٤﴾
And We called out to him saying: O Ibrahim!
قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ ٱلرُّءْيَآ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ﴿١٠٥﴾
You have indeed shown the truth of the vision; surely thus do We reward the doers of good:
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْبَلَٰٓؤُا۟ ٱلْمُبِينُ ﴿١٠٦﴾
Most surely this is a manifest trial.
وَفَدَيْنَٰهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيمٍ ﴿١٠٧﴾
And We ransomed him with a Feat sacrifice.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ﴿١٠٨﴾
And We perpetuated (praise) to him among the later generations.
سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ﴿١٠٩﴾
Peace be on Ibrahim.
كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ﴿١١٠﴾
Thus do We reward the doers of good.
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿١١١﴾
Surely he was one of Our believing servants.
وَبَشَّرْنَٰهُ بِإِسْحَٰقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ ﴿١١٢﴾
And We gave him the good news of Ishaq, a prophet among the good ones.
وَبَٰرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَىٰٓ إِسْحَٰقَ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحْسِنٌ وَظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهِۦ مُبِينٌ ﴿١١٣﴾
And We showered Our blessings on him and on Ishaq; and of their offspring are the doers of good, and (also) those who are clearly unjust to their own souls.
وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ ﴿١١٤﴾
And certainly We conferred a favor on Musa and Haroun.
وَنَجَّيْنَٰهُمَا وَقَوْمَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلْكَرْبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ﴿١١٥﴾
And We delivered them both and their people from the mighty distress.
وَنَصَرْنَٰهُمْ فَكَانُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبِينَ ﴿١١٦﴾
And We helped them, so they were the vanquishers.
وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُمَا ٱلْكِتَٰبَ ٱلْمُسْتَبِينَ ﴿١١٧﴾
And We gave them both the Book that made (things) clear.
وَهَدَيْنَٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ ﴿١١٨﴾
And We guided them both on the right way.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِمَا فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ﴿١١٩﴾
And We perpetuated (praise) to them among the later generations.
سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ ﴿١٢٠﴾
Peace be on Musa and Haroun.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ﴿١٢١﴾
Even thus do We reward the doers of good.
إِنَّهُمَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿١٢٢﴾
Surely they were both of Our believing servants.
وَإِنَّ إِلْيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿١٢٣﴾
And Ilyas was most surely of the apostles.
إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ ﴿١٢٤﴾
When he said to his people: Do you not guard (against evil)?
أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلًا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ ٱلْخَٰلِقِينَ ﴿١٢٥﴾
What! do you call upon Ba’l and forsake the best of the creators,
ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿١٢٦﴾
Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of yore?
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ ﴿١٢٧﴾
But they called him a liar, therefore they shall most surely be brought up.
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ ﴿١٢٨﴾
But not the servants of Allah, the purified ones.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ﴿١٢٩﴾
And We perpetuated to him (praise) among the later generations.
سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلْ يَاسِينَ ﴿١٣٠﴾
Peace be on Ilyas.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ﴿١٣١﴾
Even thus do We reward the doers of good.
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿١٣٢﴾
Surely he was one of Our believing servants.
وَإِنَّ لُوطًا لَّمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿١٣٣﴾
And Lut was most surely of the apostles.
إِذْ نَجَّيْنَٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ ﴿١٣٤﴾
When We delivered him and his followers, all–
إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِى ٱلْغَٰبِرِينَ ﴿١٣٥﴾
Except an old woman (who was) amongst those who tarried.
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْءَاخَرِينَ ﴿١٣٦﴾
Then We destroyed the others.
وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ ﴿١٣٧﴾
And most surely you pass by them in the morning,
وَبِٱلَّيْلِ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ ﴿١٣٨﴾
And at night; do you not then understand?
وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿١٣٩﴾
And Yunus was most surely of the apostles.
إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ ٱلْمَشْحُونِ ﴿١٤٠﴾
When he ran away to a ship completely laden,
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُدْحَضِينَ ﴿١٤١﴾
So he shared (with them), but was of those who are cast off.
فَٱلْتَقَمَهُ ٱلْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ ﴿١٤٢﴾
So the fish swallowed him while he did that for which he blamed himself
فَلَوْلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَبِّحِينَ ﴿١٤٣﴾
But had it not been that he was of those who glorify (Us),
لَلَبِثَ فِى بَطْنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ ﴿١٤٤﴾
He would certainly have tarried in its belly to the day when they are raised.
فَنَبَذْنَٰهُ بِٱلْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ ﴿١٤٥﴾
Then We cast him on to the vacant surface of the earth while he was sick.
وَأَنۢبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّن يَقْطِينٍ ﴿١٤٦﴾
And We caused to grow up for him a gourdplant.
وَأَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِا۟ئَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ ﴿١٤٧﴾
And We sent him to a hundred thousand, rather they exceeded.
فَـَٔامَنُوا۟ فَمَتَّعْنَٰهُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍ ﴿١٤٨﴾
And they believed, so We gave them provision till a time.
فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ ﴿١٤٩﴾
Then ask them whether your Lord has daughters and they have sons.
أَمْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثًا وَهُمْ شَٰهِدُونَ ﴿١٥٠﴾
Or did We create the angels females while they were witnesses?
أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنْ إِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُولُونَ ﴿١٥١﴾
Now surely it is of their own lie that they say:
وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ ﴿١٥٢﴾
Allah has begotten; and most surely they are liars.
أَصْطَفَى ٱلْبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلْبَنِينَ ﴿١٥٣﴾
Has He chosen daughters in preference to sons?
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ ﴿١٥٤﴾
What is the matter with you, how is it that you judge?
أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿١٥٥﴾
Will you not then mind?
أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَٰنٌ مُّبِينٌ ﴿١٥٦﴾
Or have you a clear authority?
فَأْتُوا۟ بِكِتَٰبِكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ ﴿١٥٧﴾
Then bring your book, if you are truthful.
وَجَعَلُوا۟ بَيْنَهُۥ وَبَيْنَ ٱلْجِنَّةِ نَسَبًا وَلَقَدْ عَلِمَتِ ٱلْجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ ﴿١٥٨﴾
And they assert a relationship between Him and the jinn; and certainly the jinn do know that they shall surely be brought up;
سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ ﴿١٥٩﴾
Glory be to Allah (for freedom) from what they describe;
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ ﴿١٦٠﴾
But not so the servants of Allah, the purified ones.
فَإِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ ﴿١٦١﴾
So surely you and what you worship,
مَآ أَنتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفَٰتِنِينَ ﴿١٦٢﴾
Not against Him can you cause (any) to fall into trial,
إِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ ﴿١٦٣﴾
Save him who will go to hell.
وَمَا مِنَّآ إِلَّا لَهُۥ مَقَامٌ مَّعْلُومٌ ﴿١٦٤﴾
And there is none of us but has an assigned place,
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ ﴿١٦٥﴾
And most surely we are they who draw themselves out in ranks,
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلْمُسَبِّحُونَ ﴿١٦٦﴾
And we are most surely they who declare the glory (of Allah).
وَإِن كَانُوا۟ لَيَقُولُونَ ﴿١٦٧﴾
And surely they used to say:
لَوْ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿١٦٨﴾
Had we a reminder from those of yore,
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ ﴿١٦٩﴾
We would certainly have been the servants of Allah– the purified ones.
فَكَفَرُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿١٧٠﴾
But (now) they disbelieve in it, so they will come to know.
وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿١٧١﴾
And certainly Our word has already gone forth in respect of Our servants, the apostles:
إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَنصُورُونَ ﴿١٧٢﴾
Most surely they shall be the assisted ones
وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبُونَ ﴿١٧٣﴾
And most surely Our host alone shall be the victorious ones.
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ ﴿١٧٤﴾
Therefore turn away from them till a time,
وَأَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ ﴿١٧٥﴾
And (then) see them, so they too shall see.
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ ﴿١٧٦﴾
What! would they then hasten on Our chastisement?
فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ ﴿١٧٧﴾
But when it shall descend in their court, evil shall then be the morning of the warned ones.
وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ ﴿١٧٨﴾
And turn away from them till a time
وَأَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ ﴿١٧٩﴾
And (then) see, for they too shall see.
سُبْحَٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ ﴿١٨٠﴾
Glory be to your Lord, the Lord of Honor, above what they describe.
وَسَلَٰمٌ عَلَى ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿١٨١﴾
And peace be on the apostles.
وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ ﴿١٨٢﴾
And all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds.
