Surah Al Mu'minun With English Translations

قَدْ اَفْلَحَ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ(1)

Certainly will the believers have succeeded: (1)

الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ فِیْ صَلَاتِهِمْ خٰشِعُوْنَ(2)

They who are during their prayer humbly submissive (2)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ عَنِ اللَّغْوِ مُعْرِضُوْنَ(3)

And they who turn away from ill speech (3)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ لِلزَّكٰوةِ فٰعِلُوْنَ(4)

And they who are observant of zakah (4)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ لِفُرُوْجِهِمْ حٰفِظُوْنَ(5)

And they who guard their chastity, (5)

اِلَّا عَلٰۤى اَزْوَاجِهِمْ اَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ اَیْمَانُهُمْ فَاِنَّهُمْ غَیْرُ مَلُوْمِیْنَ(6)

Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed - (6)

فَمَنِ ابْتَغٰى وَرَآءَ ذٰلِكَ فَاُولٰٓىٕكَ هُمُ الْعٰدُوْنَ(7)

But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors - (7)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ لِاَمٰنٰتِهِمْ وَ عَهْدِهِمْ رٰعُوْنَ(8)

And they who are to their trusts and promises attentive (8)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ عَلٰى صَلَوٰتِهِمْ یُحَافِظُوْنَﭥ(9)

And they who carefully maintain their prayers - (9)

اُولٰٓىٕكَ هُمُ الْوٰرِثُوْنَ(10)

Those are the inheritors (10)

الَّذِیْنَ یَرِثُوْنَ الْفِرْدَوْسَؕ-هُمْ فِیْهَا خٰلِدُوْنَ(11)

Who will inherit al-Firdaus. They will abide therein eternally. (11)

وَ لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنْ سُلٰلَةٍ مِّنْ طِیْنٍ(12)

And We have certainly created man out of a extract of clay. (12)

ثُمَّ جَعَلْنٰهُ نُطْفَةً فِیْ قَرَارٍ مَّـكِیْنٍ(13)

Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging. (13)

ثُمَّ خَلَقْنَا النُّطْفَةَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْعَلَقَةَ مُضْغَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْمُضْغَةَ عِظٰمًا فَكَسَوْنَا الْعِظٰمَ لَحْمًاۗ-ثُمَّ اَنْشَاْنٰهُ خَلْقًا اٰخَرَؕ-فَتَبٰرَكَ اللّٰهُ اَحْسَنُ الْخٰلِقِیْنَﭤ(14)

Then We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clinging clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made the lump [of flesh] into bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah, the best of creators. (14)

ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ لَمَیِّتُوْنَﭤ(15)

Then indeed, after that you will die. (15)

ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ تُبْعَثُوْنَ(16)

Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, will be resurrected. (16)

وَ لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعَ طَرَآىٕقَ ﳓ وَ مَا كُنَّا عَنِ الْخَلْقِ غٰفِلِیْنَ(17)

And We have created above you seven heavens, and never have We been unaware of [Our] creation. (17)

وَ اَنْزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءًۢ بِقَدَرٍ فَاَسْكَنّٰهُ فِی الْاَرْضِ ﳓ وَ اِنَّا عَلٰى ذَهَابٍۭ بِهٖ لَقٰدِرُوْنَ(18)

And We have sent down water from the sky in a measured amount and settled it in the earth. And indeed, We are able to take it away. (18)

فَاَنْشَاْنَا لَكُمْ بِهٖ جَنّٰتٍ مِّنْ نَّخِیْلٍ وَّ اَعْنَابٍۘ-لَكُمْ فِیْهَا فَوَاكِهُ كَثِیْرَةٌ وَّ مِنْهَا تَاْكُلُوْنَ(19)

And We brought forth for you thereby gardens of palm trees and grapevines, and for you therein are abundant fruits, and from them you eat. (19)

وَ شَجَرَةً تَخْرُ جُ مِنْ طُوْرِ سَیْنَآءَ تَنْۢبُتُ بِالدُّهْنِ وَ صِبْغٍ لِّلْاٰكِلِیْنَ(20)

And [We brought forth] a tree issuing from Mount Sinai which produces oil and seasoning for those who eat. (20)

وَ اِنَّ لَكُمْ فِی الْاَنْعَامِ لَعِبْرَةًؕ-نُسْقِیْكُمْ مِّمَّا فِیْ بُطُوْنِهَا وَ لَكُمْ فِیْهَا مَنَافِعُ كَثِیْرَةٌ وَّ مِنْهَا تَاْكُلُوْنَ(21)

And indeed, for you in grazing livestock is a lesson. We give you to drink of what is in their bellies, and for you in them are many benefits, and from them you eat. (21)

وَ عَلَیْهَا وَ عَلَى الْفُلْكِ تُحْمَلُوْنَ(22)

And upon them and upon ships you are carried. (22)

وَ لَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا اِلٰى قَوْمِهٖ فَقَالَ یٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَیْرُهٗؕ-اَفَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ(23)

And We had 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?" (23)

فَقَالَ الْمَلَؤُا الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ قَوْمِهٖ مَا هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْۙ-یُرِیْدُ اَنْ یَّتَفَضَّلَ عَلَیْكُمْؕ-وَ لَوْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ لَاَنْزَلَ مَلٰٓىٕكَةً ۚۖ-مَّا سَمِعْنَا بِهٰذَا فِیْۤ اٰبَآىٕنَا الْاَوَّلِیْنَ(24)

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, He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers." (24)

اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا رَجُلٌۢ بِهٖ جِنَّةٌ فَتَرَبَّصُوْا بِهٖ حَتّٰى حِیْنٍ(25)

He is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait for him for a time." (25)

قَالَ رَبِّ انْصُرْنِیْ بِمَا كَذَّبُوْنِ(26)

He said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me." (26)

فَاَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلَیْهِ اَنِ اصْنَعِ الْفُلْكَ بِاَعْیُنِنَا وَ وَحْیِنَا فَاِذَا جَآءَ اَمْرُنَا وَ فَارَ التَّنُّوْرُۙ-فَاسْلُكْ فِیْهَا مِنْ كُلٍّ زَوْجَیْنِ اثْنَیْنِ وَ اَهْلَكَ اِلَّا مَنْ سَبَقَ عَلَیْهِ الْقَوْلُ مِنْهُمْۚ-وَ لَا تُخَاطِبْنِیْ فِی الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْاۚ-اِنَّهُمْ مُّغْرَقُوْنَ(27)

So We inspired to him, "Construct the ship under Our observation and Our inspiration, and when Our command comes and the oven boils, take into it of 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. (27)

فَاِذَا اسْتَوَیْتَ اَنْتَ وَ مَنْ مَّعَكَ عَلَى الْفُلْكِ فَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِیْ نَجّٰىنَا مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ(28)

And when you have boarded the ark, you and those with you, then say, "Praise to Allah who has saved us from the wrongdoing people." (28)

وَ قُلْ رَّبِّ اَنْزِلْنِیْ مُنْزَلًا مُّبٰرَكًا وَّ اَنْتَ خَیْرُ الْمُنْزِلِیْنَ(29)

And say, "My Lord, cause me to land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us]." (29)

اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ وَّ اِنْ كُنَّا لَمُبْتَلِیْنَ(30)

Indeed in that are signs, and indeed, We were testing [them]. (30)

ثُمَّ اَنْشَاْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْنًا اٰخَرِیْنَ(31)

Then We produced after them another generation. (31)

فَاَرْسَلْنَا فِیْهِمْ رَسُوْلًا مِّنْهُمْ اَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَیْرُهٗؕ-اَفَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ(32)

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?" (32)

وَ قَالَ الْمَلَاُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَ كَذَّبُوْا بِلِقَآءِ الْاٰخِرَةِ وَ اَتْرَفْنٰهُمْ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَاۙ-مَا هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْۙ-یَاْكُلُ مِمَّا تَاْكُلُوْنَ مِنْهُ وَ یَشْرَبُ مِمَّا تَشْرَبُوْنَ(33)

And the eminent among his people who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter and whom We had given 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 that from which you drink. (33)

وَ لَىٕنْ اَطَعْتُمْ بَشَرًا مِّثْلَكُمْ اِنَّكُمْ اِذًا لَّخٰسِرُوْنَ(34)

And if you obey a man like yourselves, indeed, you will then be losers. (34)

اَیَعِدُكُمْ اَنَّكُمْ اِذَا مِتُّمْ وَ كُنْتُمْ تُرَابًا وَّ عِظَامًا اَنَّكُمْ مُّخْرَجُوْنَ(35)

Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones that you will be brought forth [again]? (35)

هَیْهَاتَ هَیْهَاتَ لِمَا تُوْعَدُوْنَ(36)

Far, far away is that which you are promised. (36)

اِنْ هِیَ اِلَّا حَیَاتُنَا الدُّنْیَا نَمُوْتُ وَ نَحْیَا وَ مَا نَحْنُ بِمَبْعُوْثِیْنَ(37)

There is not but our worldly life; we die and live, but we will not be resurrected. (37)

اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا رَجُلُ-ﰳافْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا وَّ مَا نَحْنُ لَهٗ بِمُؤْمِنِیْنَ(38)

He is not but a man who has invented about Allah a lie, and we are not believers in him." (38)

قَالَ رَبِّ انْصُرْنِیْ بِمَا كَذَّبُوْنِ(39)

He said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me." (39)

قَالَ عَمَّا قَلِیْلٍ لَّیُصْبِحُنَّ نٰدِمِیْنَ(40)

[Allah] said, "After a little while, they will surely be regretful." (40)

فَاَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّیْحَةُ بِالْحَقِّ فَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ غُثَآءًۚ-فَبُعْدًا لِّلْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ(41)

So the shriek overtook them in truth, and We made them as lifeless stubble. So away with the wrongdoing people. (41)

ثُمَّ اَنْشَاْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قُرُوْنًا اٰخَرِیْنَﭤ(42)

Then We produced after them other generations. (42)

مَا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ اُمَّةٍ اَجَلَهَا وَ مَا یَسْتَاْخِرُوْنَﭤ(43)

No nation precedes its [appointed] term, nor do they remain thereafter. (43)

ثُمَّ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا تَتْرَاؕ-كُلَّمَا جَآءَ اُمَّةً رَّسُوْلُهَا كَذَّبُوْهُ فَاَتْبَعْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ بَعْضًا وَّ جَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَحَادِیْثَۚ-فَبُعْدًا لِّقَوْمٍ لَّا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ(44)

Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation its messenger, they denied him, so We made some of them follow others [to destruction] and made them narrations. So away with a people who do not believe. (44)

ثُمَّ اَرْسَلْنَا مُوْسٰى وَ اَخَاهُ هٰرُوْنَ ﳔ بِاٰیٰتِنَا وَ سُلْطٰنٍ مُّبِیْنٍ(45)

Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our signs and a clear authority (45)

اِلٰى فِرْعَوْنَ وَ مَلَاۡىٕهٖ فَاسْتَكْبَرُوْا وَ كَانُوْا قَوْمًا عَالِیْنَ(46)

To Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they acted arrogantly, and they were a haughty people. (46)

فَقَالُوْۤا اَنُؤْمِنُ لِبَشَرَیْنِ مِثْلِنَا وَ قَوْمُهُمَا لَنَا عٰبِدُوْنَ(47)

So they said, "Should we believe two men like ourselves, while their people have been serving us?" (47)

فَكَذَّبُوْهُمَا فَكَانُوْا مِنَ الْمُهْلَكِیْنَ(48)

So they denied them, and they were among those destroyed. (48)

وَ لَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسَى الْكِتٰبَ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَهْتَدُوْنَ(49)

And We had already given Moses the Scripture that they might be guided. (49)

وَ جَعَلْنَا ابْنَ مَرْیَمَ وَ اُمَّهٗۤ اٰیَةً وَّ اٰوَیْنٰهُمَاۤ اِلٰى رَبْوَةٍ ذَاتِ قَرَارٍ وَّ مَعِیْنٍ(50)

And We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign and sheltered them within a high ground having level [land] and flowing water. (50)

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الرُّسُلُ كُلُوْا مِنَ الطَّیِّبٰتِ وَ اعْمَلُوْا صَالِحًاؕ-اِنِّیْ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ عَلِیْمٌﭤ(51)

[Allah said], "O messengers, eat from the pure foods and work righteousness. Indeed, I am Knowing of what you do. (51)

وَ اِنَّ هٰذِهٖۤ اُمَّتُكُمْ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةً وَّ اَنَا رَبُّكُمْ فَاتَّقُوْنِ(52)

And indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me." (52)

فَتَقَطَّعُوْۤا اَمْرَهُمْ بَیْنَهُمْ زُبُرًاؕ-كُلُّ حِزْبٍۭ بِمَا لَدَیْهِمْ فَرِحُوْنَ(53)

But the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing. (53)

فَذَرْهُمْ فِیْ غَمْرَتِهِمْ حَتّٰى حِیْنٍ(54)

So leave them in their confusion for a time. (54)

اَیَحْسَبُوْنَ اَنَّمَا نُمِدُّهُمْ بِهٖ مِنْ مَّالٍ وَّ بَنِیْنَ(55)

Do they think that what We extend to them of wealth and children (55)

نُسَارِعُ لَهُمْ فِی الْخَیْرٰتِؕ-بَلْ لَّا یَشْعُرُوْنَ(56)

Is [because] We hasten for them good things? Rather, they do not perceive. (56)

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ مِّنْ خَشْیَةِ رَبِّهِمْ مُّشْفِقُوْنَ(57)

Indeed, those who tremble through fear of their Lord, (57)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ بِاٰیٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ(58)

And those who believe in the signs of their Lord, (58)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ بِرَبِّهِمْ لَا یُشْرِكُوْنَ(59)

And those who do not associate [anything] with their Lord, (59)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ یُؤْتُوْنَ مَاۤ اٰتَوْا وَّ قُلُوْبُهُمْ وَجِلَةٌ اَنَّهُمْ اِلٰى رَبِّهِمْ رٰجِعُوْنَ(60)

And those who give what they give with their hearts fearful because they will be returning to their Lord - (60)

اُولٰٓىٕكَ یُسٰرِعُوْنَ فِی الْخَیْرٰتِ وَ هُمْ لَهَا سٰبِقُوْنَ(61)

Those hasten to good deeds, and they outstrip [others] therein. (61)

وَ لَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا اِلَّا وُسْعَهَا وَ لَدَیْنَا كِتٰبٌ یَّنْطِقُ بِالْحَقِّ وَ هُمْ لَا یُظْلَمُوْنَ(62)

And We do not charge any soul except [with that within] its capacity, and We have a record which speaks with truth, and they will not be wronged. (62)

بَلْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ فِیْ غَمْرَةٍ مِّنْ هٰذَا وَ لَهُمْ اَعْمَالٌ مِّنْ دُوْنِ ذٰلِكَ هُمْ لَهَا عٰمِلُوْنَ(63)

But their hearts are in confusion about this [Qur'an], and they have other deeds besides this which they are doing. (63)

حَتّٰۤى اِذَاۤ اَخَذْنَا مُتْرَفِیْهِمْ بِالْعَذَابِ اِذَا هُمْ یَجْــٴَـرُوْنَﭤ(64)

Until when We seize their affluent ones with punishment, at once they cry out [in distress]. (64)

لَا تَجْــٴَـرُوا الْیَوْمَ۫-اِنَّكُمْ مِّنَّا لَا تُنْصَرُوْنَ(65)

[It will be said], "Do not cry out today; indeed, you will not be helped by Us. (65)

قَدْ كَانَتْ اٰیٰـتِیْ تُتْلٰى عَلَیْكُمْ فَكُنْتُمْ عَلٰۤى اَعْقَابِكُمْ تَنْكِصُوْنَ(66)

My verses had been recited to you, but you were turning back on your heels, (66)

مُسْتَكْبِرِیْنَ ﳓ بِهٖ سٰمِرًا تَهْجُرُوْنَ(67)

Acting arrogantly toward it, engaging in [vain] night conversation, abandoning it. (67)

اَفَلَمْ یَدَّبَّرُوا الْقَوْلَ اَمْ جَآءَهُمْ مَّا لَمْ یَاْتِ اٰبَآءَهُمُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ(68)

Then have they not pondered the Qur'an, or has there come to them that which did not come to their forefathers? (68)

اَمْ لَمْ یَعْرِفُوْا رَسُوْلَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَهٗ مُنْكِرُوْنَ(69)

Or did they not know their messenger, so they are toward him disacknowledging? (69)

اَمْ یَقُوْلُوْنَ بِهٖ جِنَّةٌؕ-بَلْ جَآءَهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ وَ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلْحَقِّ كٰرِهُوْنَ(70)

Or do they say [of him], "He is mad"? Rather, he has come to them with the truth, but most of them to the truth are averse. (70)

وَ لَوِ اتَّبَعَ الْحَقُّ اَهْوَآءَهُمْ لَفَسَدَتِ السَّمٰوٰتُ وَ الْاَرْضُ وَ مَنْ فِیْهِنَّؕ-بَلْ اَتَیْنٰهُمْ بِذِكْرِهِمْ فَهُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِهِمْ مُّعْرِضُوْنَﭤ(71)

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. (71)

اَمْ تَسْــٴَـلُهُمْ خَرْجًا فَخَرَاجُ رَبِّكَ خَیْرٌ ﳓ وَّ هُوَ خَیْرُ الرّٰزِقِیْنَ(72)

Or do you ask of them [any] payment? But the reward of your Lord is best, and He is the best of providers. (72)

وَ اِنَّكَ لَتَدْعُوْهُمْ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ(73)

And indeed, [O Muhammad], you invite them to a straight path. (73)

وَ اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ لَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ عَنِ الصِّرَاطِ لَنٰكِبُوْنَ(74)

But indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter are deviating from the path. (74)

وَ لَوْ رَحِمْنٰهُمْ وَ كَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِمْ مِّنْ ضُرٍّ لَّلَجُّوْا فِیْ طُغْیَانِهِمْ یَعْمَهُوْنَ(75)

And even if We showed them mercy and removed what was afflicting them, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly. (75)

وَ لَقَدْ اَخَذْنٰهُمْ بِالْعَذَابِ فَمَا اسْتَكَانُوْا لِرَبِّهِمْ وَ مَا یَتَضَرَّعُوْنَ(76)

And We had already seized them with punishment, but they did not humble themselves to their Lord, nor did they implore [Him]. (76)

حَتّٰۤى اِذَا فَتَحْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ بَابًا ذَا عَذَابٍ شَدِیْدٍ اِذَا هُمْ فِیْهِ مُبْلِسُوْنَ(77)

Until when We open for them a gate of severe punishment, then at once they will be therein in despair. (77)

وَ هُوَ الَّذِیْۤ اَنْشَاَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَ الْاَبْصَارَ وَ الْاَفْـٕدَةَؕ-قَلِیْلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُوْنَ(78)

And it is He who has produced for you hearing and vision and hearts. Little thanks you give. (78)

وَ هُوَ الَّذِیْ ذَرَاَكُمْ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَ اِلَیْهِ تُحْشَرُوْنَ(79)

And it is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered. (79)

وَ هُوَ الَّذِیْ یُحْیٖ وَ یُمِیْتُ وَ لَهُ اخْتِلَافُ الَّیْلِ وَ النَّهَارِؕ-اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ(80)

And it is He who gives life and causes death, and to Him is the alternation of the night and the day. Then will you not reason? (80)

بَلْ قَالُوْا مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ الْاَوَّلُوْنَ(81)

Rather, they say [something] like what the former peoples said. (81)

قَالُوْۤا ءَاِذَا مِتْنَا وَ كُنَّا تُرَابًا وَّ عِظَامًا ءَاِنَّا لَمَبْعُوْثُوْنَ(82)

They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, will we indeed be resurrected? (82)

لَقَدْ وُعِدْنَا نَحْنُ وَ اٰبَآؤُنَا هٰذَا مِنْ قَبْلُ اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّاۤ اَسَاطِیْرُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ(83)

We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples." (83)

قُلْ لِّمَنِ الْاَرْضُ وَ مَنْ فِیْهَاۤ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ(84)

Say, "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know?" (84)

سَیَقُوْلُوْنَ لِلّٰهِؕ-قُلْ اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُوْنَ(85)

They will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then will you not remember?" (85)

قُلْ مَنْ رَّبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ السَّبْعِ وَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِیْمِ(86)

Say, "Who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the Great Throne?" (86)

سَیَقُوْلُوْنَ لِلّٰهِؕ-قُلْ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ(87)

They will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then will you not fear Him?" (87)

قُلْ مَنْۢ بِیَدِهٖ مَلَكُوْتُ كُلِّ شَیْءٍ وَّ هُوَ یُجِیْرُ وَ لَا یُجَارُ عَلَیْهِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ(88)

Say, "In whose hand is the realm of all things - and he protects, but is not protected against - if you should know?" (88)

سَیَقُوْلُوْنَ لِلّٰهِؕ-قُلْ فَاَنّٰى تُسْحَرُوْنَ(89)

They will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then how are you deluded?" (89)

بَلْ اَتَیْنٰهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ وَ اِنَّهُمْ لَكٰذِبُوْنَ(90)

Rather, We have brought them the truth, and indeed, they are liars. (90)

مَا اتَّخَذَ اللّٰهُ مِنْ وَّلَدٍ وَّ مَا كَانَ مَعَهٗ مِنْ اِلٰهٍ اِذًا لَّذَهَبَ كُلُّ اِلٰهٍۭ بِمَا خَلَقَ وَ لَعَلَا بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰى بَعْضٍؕ-سُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا یَصِفُوْنَ(91)

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 tried to overcome others. Exalted is Allah above what they describe [concerning Him]. (91)

عٰلِمِ الْغَیْبِ وَ الشَّهَادَةِ فَتَعٰلٰى عَمَّا یُشْرِكُوْنَ(92)

[He is] the Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, so high is He above what they associate [with Him]. (92)

قُلْ رَّبِّ اِمَّا تُرِیَنِّیْ مَا یُوْعَدُوْنَ(93)

Say, [O Muhammad], "My Lord, if You should show me that which they are promised - (93)

رَبِّ فَلَا تَجْعَلْنِیْ فِی الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ(94)

My Lord, then do not place me among the wrongdoing people." (94)

وَ اِنَّا عَلٰۤى اَنْ نُّرِیَكَ مَا نَعِدُهُمْ لَقٰدِرُوْنَ(95)

And indeed, We are able to show you that which We promise them. (95)

اِدْفَعْ بِالَّتِیْ هِیَ اَحْسَنُ السَّیِّئَةَؕ-نَحْنُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا یَصِفُوْنَ(96)

Repel evil by that [deed] which is better. We are most knowing of what they describe. (96)

وَ قُلْ رَّبِّ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزٰتِ الشَّیٰطِیْنِ(97)

And say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils, (97)

وَ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ رَبِّ اَنْ یَّحْضُرُوْنِ(98)

And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me." (98)

حَتّٰۤى اِذَا جَآءَ اَحَدَهُمُ الْمَوْتُ قَالَ رَبِّ ارْجِعُوْنِ(99)

[For such is the state of the disbelievers], until when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back (99)

لَعَلِّیْۤ اَعْمَلُ صَالِحًا فِیْمَا تَرَكْتُ كَلَّاؕ-اِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَآىٕلُهَاؕ-وَ مِنْ وَّرَآىٕهِمْ بَرْزَخٌ اِلٰى یَوْمِ یُبْعَثُوْنَ(100)

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. (100)

فَاِذَا نُفِخَ فِی الصُّوْرِ فَلَاۤ اَنْسَابَ بَیْنَهُمْ یَوْمَىٕذٍ وَّ لَا یَتَسَآءَلُوْنَ(101)

So when the Horn is blown, no kinship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask one another [for help]. (101)

فَمَنْ ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِیْنُهٗ فَاُولٰٓىٕكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُوْنَ(102)

Then whoever's scales are heavy - it is they who are the successful. (102)

وَ مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَازِیْنُهٗ فَاُولٰٓىٕكَ الَّذِیْنَ خَسِرُوْۤا اَنْفُسَهُمْ فِیْ جَهَنَّمَ خٰلِدُوْنَ(103)

And whoever's scales are light - it is those who have lost their souls, [being] in Hell eternally. (103)

تَلْفَحُ وُجُوْهَهُمُ النَّارُ وَ هُمْ فِیْهَا كٰلِحُوْنَ(104)

The Fire will scorch their faces, and they therein will be grim-faced. (104)

اَلَمْ تَكُنْ اٰیٰتِیْ تُتْلٰى عَلَیْكُمْ فَكُنْتُمْ بِهَا تُكَذِّبُوْنَ(105)

[Allah will say], "Were not My verses recited to you, and you used to deny them?" (105)

قَالُوْا رَبَّنَا غَلَبَتْ عَلَیْنَا شِقْوَتُنَا وَ كُنَّا قَوْمًا ضَآلِّیْنَ(106)

They will say, "Our Lord, our wretchedness overcame us, and we were a people astray. (106)

رَبَّنَاۤ اَخْرِجْنَا مِنْهَا فَاِنْ عُدْنَا فَاِنَّا ظٰلِمُوْنَ(107)

Our Lord, remove us from it, and if we were to return [to evil], indeed, we would be wrongdoers." (107)

قَالَ اخْسَــٴُـوْا فِیْهَا وَ لَا تُكَلِّمُوْنِ(108)

He will say, "Remain despised therein and do not speak to Me. (108)

اِنَّهٗ كَانَ فَرِیْقٌ مِّنْ عِبَادِیْ یَقُوْلُوْنَ رَبَّنَاۤ اٰمَنَّا فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَ ارْحَمْنَا وَ اَنْتَ خَیْرُ الرّٰحِمِیْنَ(109)

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.' (109)

فَاتَّخَذْتُمُوْهُمْ سِخْرِیًّا حَتّٰۤى اَنْسَوْكُمْ ذِكْرِیْ وَ كُنْتُمْ مِّنْهُمْ تَضْحَكُوْنَ(110)

But you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My remembrance, and you used to laugh at them. (110)

اِنِّیْ جَزَیْتُهُمُ الْیَوْمَ بِمَا صَبَرُوْۤاۙ-اَنَّهُمْ هُمُ الْفَآىٕزُوْنَ(111)

Indeed, I have rewarded them this Day for their patient endurance - that they are the ones who have attained [success]." (111)

قٰلَ كَمْ لَبِثْتُمْ فِی الْاَرْضِ عَدَدَ سِنِیْنَ(112)

He will say, "How long did you remain on earth in number of years?" (112)

قَالُوْا لَبِثْنَا یَوْمًا اَوْ بَعْضَ یَوْمٍ فَسْــٴَـلِ الْعَآدِّیْنَ(113)

They will say, "We remained a day or part of a day; ask those who enumerate." (113)

قٰلَ اِنْ لَّبِثْتُمْ اِلَّا قَلِیْلًا لَّوْ اَنَّكُمْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ(114)

He will say, "You did not remain but a little - if only you had known. (114)

اَفَحَسِبْتُمْ اَنَّمَا خَلَقْنٰكُمْ عَبَثًا وَّ اَنَّكُمْ اِلَیْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُوْنَ(115)

Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?" (115)

فَتَعٰلَى اللّٰهُ الْمَلِكُ الْحَقُّۚ-لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۚ-رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِیْمِ(116)

So exalted is Allah, the Sovereign, the Truth; there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne. (116)

وَ مَنْ یَّدْعُ مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهًا اٰخَرَۙ-لَا بُرْهَانَ لَهٗ بِهٖۙ-فَاِنَّمَا حِسَابُهٗ عِنْدَ رَبِّهٖؕ-اِنَّهٗ لَا یُفْلِحُ الْكٰفِرُوْنَ(117)

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. (117)

وَ قُلْ رَّبِّ اغْفِرْ وَ ارْحَمْ وَ اَنْتَ خَیْرُ الرّٰحِمِیْنَ(118)

And, [O Muhammad], say, "My Lord, forgive and have mercy, and You are the best of the merciful." (118)
