And they who are observant of zakah

Wallazeena hum lifuroo jihim haafizoon

And they who guard their private parts

Illaa 'alaaa azwaajihim aw maa malakat aimaanuhum fa innahum ghairu maloomeen

Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed -

Famanib taghaa waraaa'a zaalika fa ulaaa'ika humul 'aadoon

But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors -

Wallazeena hum li amaanaatihim wa 'ahdihim raa'oon

And they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive

Wallazeena hum 'alaa Salawaatihim yuhaafizoon

And they who carefully maintain their prayers -

Those are the inheritors

Who will inherit al-Firdaus. They will abide therein eternally.

Wa laqad khalaqnal insaana min sulaalatim minteen

And certainly did We create man from an extract of clay.

Summa ja'alnaahu nutfatan fee qaraarim makeen

Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging.

Summa khalaqnan nutfata 'alaqatan fakhalaqnal 'alaqata mudghatan fakhalaq nal mudghata 'izaaman fakasawnal 'izaama lahman summa anshaanaahu khalqan aakhar; fatabaarakal laahu ahsanul khaaliqeen

Then We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah, the best of creators.

Summa innakum ba'da zaalika la maaiyitoon

Then indeed, after that you are to die.

Summa innakum Yawmal Qiyaamati tub'asoon

And upon them and on ships you are carried.

Wa laqad arsalnaa Noohan ilaa qawmihee faqaala yaa qawmi'budul laaha maa lakum min ilahin ghairuhoo afalaa tattaqoon

And We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"

Faqaalal mala'ul lazeena kafaroo min qawmihee maa haazaaa illaa basharum mislukum yureedu ai yatafaddala 'alaikum wa law shaaa'al laahu la anzala malaaa'ikatam maa sami'naa bihaazaa feee aabaaa'inal awwaleen

But the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a man like yourselves who wishes to take precedence over you; and if Allah had willed [to send a messenger], He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers.

In huwa illaa rajulum bihee jinnatun fatarabbasoo bihee hattan heen

He is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait concerning him for a time."

So We inspired to him, "Construct the ship under Our observation, and Our inspiration, and when Our command comes and the oven overflows, put into the ship from each [creature] two mates and your family, except those for whom the decree [of destruction] has proceeded. And do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are to be drowned.

Fa izas tawaita ata wa mam ma'aka 'alal fulki faqulil hamdu lillaahil lazee najjaanaa minal qawmiz zalimeen

And when you have boarded the ship, you and those with you, then say, 'Praise to Allah who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.'

Then We produced after them a generation of others.

Fa arsalnaa feehim Rasoolam minhum ani'budul laaha maa lakum min ilaahin ghairuhoo afalaa tattaqoon

And We sent among them a messenger from themselves, [saying], "Worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"

Wa qaalal mala-u min qawmihil lazeena kafaroo wa kazzaboo bi liqaaa'il Aakhirati wa atrafnaahum fil hayaatid dunyaa maa haazaaa illaa basharum mislukum yaakulu mimmaa taakuloona minhu wa yashrabu mimmaa tashraboon

And the eminent among his people who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter while We had given them luxury in the worldly life said, "This is not but a man like yourselves. He eats of that from which you eat and drinks of what you drink.

Wa la'in at'atum basharam mislakum innakum izal lakhaasiroon

And if you should obey a man like yourselves, indeed, you would then be losers.

A-Ya'idukum annakum izaa mittum wa kuntum turaabanw wa izaaman annakum mukhrajoon

Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones that you will be brought forth [once more]?

Haihaata haihaata limaa too'adoon

How far, how far, is that which you are promised.

In hiya illaa hayaatunad dunyaa namootu wa nahyaa wa maa nahnu bimab'ooseen

Life is not but our worldly life - we die and live, but we will not be resurrected.

In huwa illaa rajulunif taraa 'alal laahi kazibanw wa maa nahnuu lahoo bimu'mineen

He is not but a man who has invented a lie about Allah, and we will not believe him."

Summa anshaanaa mim ba'dihim quroonan aakhareen

Then We produced after them other generations.

Maa tasbiqu min ummatin ajalahaa wa maa yastaakhiroon

No nation will precede its time [of termination], nor will they remain [thereafter].

Summa arsalnaa Rusulanaa tatraa kulla maa jaaa'a ummatar Rasooluhaa kazzabooh; fa atba'naa ba'dahum ba'danw wa ja'alnaahum ahaadees; fabu'dal liqawmil laa yu'minoon

Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation its messenger, they denied him, so We made them follow one another [to destruction], and We made them narrations. So away with a people who do not believe.

Summa arsalnaa Moosaa wa akhaahu Haaroona bi Aayaatinaa wa sultaanim mubeen

Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our signs and a clear authority

Ilaa Fir'awna wa mala'ihee fastakbaroo wa kaanoo qawman 'aaleem

To Pharaoh and his establishment, but they were arrogant and were a haughty people.

Faqaaloo annu'minu libasharaini mislinaa wa qawmuhumaa lanaa 'aabidoon

They said, "Should we believe two men like ourselves while their people are for us in servitude?"

Wa laqad aatainaa Moosal Kitaaba la'allahum yahtadoon

And We certainly gave Moses the Scripture that perhaps they would be guided.

Wa ja'alnab na Maryama wa ummahooo aayatannw wa aawainaahumaaa ilaa rabwatin zaati qaraarinw wa ma'een

And We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign and sheltered them within a high ground having level [areas] and flowing water.

Yaaa aiyuhar Rusulu kuloo minat taiyibaati wa'maloo saalihan innee bimaa ta'maloona 'Aleem

[Allah said], "O messengers, eat from the good foods and work righteousness. Indeed, I, of what you do, am Knowing.

Wa inna haaziheee ummatukum ummatanw waahidatanw wa Ana Rabbukum fattaqoon

And indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me."

Fataqatta'ooo amrahum bainahum zuburaa; kullu hizbim bimaa ladaihim farihoon

But the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing.

Fazarhum fee ghamratihim hattaa heen

So leave them in their confusion for a time.

A-yahsaboona annnamaa numiduhum bihee mimmaalinw wa baneen

Do they think that what We extend to them of wealth and children

Nusaari'u lahum fil khairaat; bal laa yash'uroon

Is [because] We hasten for them good things? Rather, they do not perceive.

Innal lazeena hum min khashyati Rabbihim mushfiqoon

Indeed, they who are apprehensive from fear of their Lord

Wallazeena hum bi Aayaati Rabbihim yu'minoon

And they who believe in the signs of their Lord

Wallazeena hum bi Rabbihim laa yushrikoon

And they who do not associate anything with their Lord

Wallazeena yu'toona maaa aataw wa quloobuhum wajilatun annahum ilaa Rabbihim raaji'oon

And they who give what they give while their hearts are fearful because they will be returning to their Lord -

Ulaaa'ika yusaari'oona fil khairaati wa hum lahaa saabiqoon

It is those who hasten to good deeds, and they outstrip [others] therein.

Wa laa nukallifu nafsan illaa wus'ahaa wa ladainaa kitaabuny yantiqu bilhaqqi w ahum la yuzlamoon

And We charge no soul except [with that within] its capacity, and with Us is a record which speaks with truth; and they will not be wronged.

Bal quloobuhum fee ghamratim min haazaa wa lahum a'maalum min dooni zaalika hum lahaa 'aamiloon

But their hearts are covered with confusion over this, and they have [evil] deeds besides disbelief which they are doing,

Hattaaa izaaa akhznaa mutrafeehim bil'azaabi izaa hum yaj'aroon

Until when We seize their affluent ones with punishment, at once they are crying [to Allah] for help.

Laa taj'arul yawma innakum minnaa laa tunsaroon

Do not cry out today. Indeed, by Us you will not be helped.

Qad kaanat Aayaatee tutlaa 'alaikum fakuntum 'alaaa a'qaabikum tankisoon

My verses had already been recited to you, but you were turning back on your heels

Mustakbireena bihee saamiran tahjuroon

In arrogance regarding it, conversing by night, speaking evil.

Afalam yaddabbarrul qawla am jaaa'ahum maa lam yaati aabaaa'ahumul awwaleen

Then have they not reflected over the Qur'an, or has there come to them that which had not come to their forefathers?

Am lam ya'rifoo Rasoolahum fahum lahoo munkiroon

Or did they not know their Messenger, so they are toward him disacknowledging?

Am yaqooloona bihee jinnnah; bal jaaa'ahum bilhaqqi wa aksaruhum lil haqqi kaarihoon

Or do they say, "In him is madness?" Rather, he brought them the truth, but most of them, to the truth, are averse.

Wa lawit taba'al haqqu ahwaaa'ahum lafasadatis samaawaatu wal ardu wa man feehinnn; bal atainaahum bizikrihim fahum 'an zikrihim mu'ridon

But if the Truth had followed their inclinations, the heavens and the earth and whoever is in them would have been ruined. Rather, We have brought them their message, but they, from their message, are turning away.

Am tas'aluhum kharjan fakharaaju Rabbika khairunw wa Huwa khairur raaziqeen

Or do you, [O Muhammad], ask them for payment? But the reward of your Lord is best, and He is the best of providers.

Wa innaka latad'oohum ilaa Siraatim Mustaqeem

And indeed, you invite them to a straight path.

Wa innnal lazeena laa yu'minoona bil Aakhirati 'anis siraati lanaakiboon

But indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter are deviating from the path.

Wa law rahimnaahum wa kashafnaa maa bihim min durril lalajjoo fee tughyaanihim ya'mahoon

And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.

Wa laqad akhaznaahum bil'azaabi famastakaanoo li Rabbihim wa maa yatadarra'oon

And We had gripped them with suffering [as a warning], but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, [and will continue thus]

Hattaaa izaa fatahnaa 'alaihim baaban zaa 'azaabin shadeedin izaa hum feehi mublisoon

Until when We have opened before them a door of severe punishment, immediately they will be therein in despair.

Wa Huwal lazeee ansha a-lakumus sam'a wal absaara wal af'idah; qaleelam maa tashkuroon

And it is He who produced for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful.

Wa Huwal lazee zara akum fil ardi wa ilaihi tuhsharoon

And it is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered.

Wa Huwal lazee yuhyee wa yumeetu wa lahukh tilaaful laili wannahaar; afalaa ta'qiloon

And it is He who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of the night and the day. Then will you not reason?

Bal qaaloo misla maa qaalal awwaloon

Rather, they say like what the former peoples said.

Qaalooo 'a-izaa mitnaa wa kunnaa turaabanw wa 'izaaman 'a-innaa lamab 'oosoon

They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

Laqad wu'idnaa nahnu wa aabaaa'unaa haazaa min qablu in haazaaa illaaa asaateerul awwaleen

We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples."

Qul limanil ardu wa man feehaaa in kuntum ta'lamoon

Say, [O Muhammad], "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know?"

Sa-yaqooloona lillaah; qul afalaa tazakkkaroon

They will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then will you not remember?"

Sa yaqooloona lillaah; qul fa annaa tus haroon

They will say, "[All belongs] to Allah." Say, "Then how are you deluded?"

Bal atainaahum bil haqqi wa innahum lakaaziboon

Rather, We have brought them the truth, and indeed they are liars.

Mat takhazal laahu minw waladinw wa maa kaana ma'ahoo min ilaah; izal lazahaba kullu ilaahim bimaa khalaqa wa la'alaa ba'duhum 'alaa ba'd; Subhaannal laahi 'ammaa yasifoon

Allah has not taken any son, nor has there ever been with Him any deity. [If there had been], then each deity would have taken what it created, and some of them would have sought to overcome others. Exalted is Allah above what they describe [concerning Him].

'Aalimil Ghaibi wash shahhaadati fata'aalaa 'ammaa yushrikoon

[He is] Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, so high is He above what they associate [with Him].

Qur Rabbi immmaa turiyannee maa yoo'adoon

Say, [O Muhammad], "My Lord, if You should show me that which they are promised,

Rabbi falaa taj'alnee fil qawmiz zaalimeen

My Lord, then do not place me among the wrongdoing people."

Wa innaa 'alaaa an nuriyaka maa na'iduhum laqaadiroon

And indeed, We are able to show you what We have promised them.

Idfa' billate hiya ahsanus saiyi'ah; nahnu a'lamu bimaa yasifoon

Wa qur Rabbi a'oozu bika min hamazaatish Shayaateen

And say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils,

Wa a'oozu bika Rabbi ai-yahduroon

And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me."

Hattaaa izaa jaaa'a ahada humul mawtu qaala Rabbir ji'oon

[For such is the state of the disbelievers], until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back

La'alleee a'malu saalihan feemaa taraktu kallaa; innahaa kalimatun huwa qaaa'iluhaa wa minw waraaa'him barzakhun ilaa Yawmi yub'asoon

That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected.

Fa izaa nufikha fis Soori falaaa ansaaba bainahum yawma'izinw wa laa yatasaaa'aloon

So when the Horn is blown, no relationship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask about one another.

Faman saqulat mawaazee nuhoo fa ulaaa'ika humul muflihoon

And those whose scales are heavy [with good deeds] - it is they who are the successful.

Wa man khaffat mawaa zeenuhoo fa ulaaa'ikal lazeena khasiroon anfusahum fee Jahannnama khaalidoon

But those whose scales are light - those are the ones who have lost their souls, [being] in Hell, abiding eternally.

Talfahu wujoohahumun Naaru wa hum feehaa kaalihood

The Fire will sear their faces, and they therein will have taut smiles.

Alam takun Aayaatee tutlaa 'alaikum fakuntum bihaa tukazziboon

[It will be said]. "Were not My verses recited to you and you used to deny them?"

Qaaloo Rabbanaa ghalabat 'alainaa shiqwatunaa wa kunnaa qawman daaalleen

They will say, "Our Lord, our wretchedness overcame us, and we were a people astray.

Rabbanaa akhrijnaa minhaa fa in 'udnaa fa innaa zaalimoon

Our Lord, remove us from it, and if we were to return [to evil], we would indeed be wrongdoers."

Qaalakh sa'oo feehaa wa laa tukallimoon

He will say, "Remain despised therein and do not speak to Me.

Innahoo kaana fareequm min 'ibaadee yaqooloona Rabbanaaa aamannaa faghfir lanaa warhamnaa wa Anta khairur raahimeen

Indeed, there was a party of My servants who said, 'Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and You are the best of the merciful.'

Fattakhaztumoohum sikhriyyan hattaaa ansawkum zikree wa kuntum minhum tadhakoon

But you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My remembrance, and you used to laugh at them.

Inee jazaituhumul Yawma bimaa sabarooo annahum humul faaa'izoon

Indeed, I have rewarded them this Day for their patient endurance - that they are the attainers [of success]."

[Allah] will say, "How long did you remain on earth in number of years?"

Qaaloo labisnaa yawman aw ba'da yawmin fas'alil 'aaaddeen

They will say, "We remained a day or part of a day; ask those who enumerate."

Qaala il labistum illaa qaleelal law annakum kuntum ta'lamoon

He will say, "You stayed not but a little - if only you had known.

Afahsibtum annamaa khalaqnaakum 'abasanw wa annakum ilainaa laa turja'oon

Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?"

Fata'aalal laahul Malikul Haqq; laaa ilaaha illaa Huwa Rabbul 'Arshil Kareem

So exalted is Allah, the Sovereign, the Truth; there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne.

Wa mai yad'u ma'allaahi ilaahan aakhara laa burhaana lahoo bihee fa innnamaa hisaabuhoo 'inda Rabbih; innahoo laa yuflihul kaafiroon

And whoever invokes besides Allah another deity for which he has no proof - then his account is only with his Lord. Indeed, the disbelievers will not succeed.
