ٱqْتَرَبَ لِلnَّاسِ حِسَابُhُمْ وَhُمْ fِى غَفْلَةٍۢ mُّcْرِضُونَ
"Their account has approached for the people, while they are in heedlessness turning away."
مَا يَأْتِīhِم مِّن ذِkْرٍۢ mِّن rَّbِّhِم مُّحْدَثٍ إِلَّا ٱsْتَمَعُوهُ وَhُمْ yَلْعَبُونَ
"No mention comes to them anew from their Lord except that they listen to it while they are at play"
لَاهِيَةًۭ قُلُوبُhُمْ ۗ وَأَسَرُّوا۟ ٱlnَّjْوَى ٱlَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ هَلْ هَـٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٌۭ mِّثْلُkُمْ ۖ أَfَتَأْتُونَ ٱlsِّحْرَ وَأَntُمْ tُbْصِرُونَ
"With their hearts distracted. And those who do wrong conceal their private conversation, [saying], "Is this [Prophet] except a human being like you? So would you accept magic while you are seeing?""
قَالَ رَبِّى يَعْلَمُ ٱlْqَوْlَ fِى ٱlsَّmَآءِ وَٱlْأَرْضِ ۖ وَهُوَ ٱlsَّmِīcُ ٱlْعَلِيمُ
"He said, "My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.""
bَلْ قَالُوٓا۟ أَضْغَـٰثُ أَحْلَـٰmٍۭ bَلِ ٱfْتَرَىٰهُ bَلْ هُوَ شَاعِرٌۭ fَلْyَأْتِنَا بِـَٔايَةٍۢ kَمَآ أُرْسِلَ ٱlْأَwَّlُونَ
"But they say, "[The revelation is but] a mixture of false dreams; rather, he has invented it; rather, he is a poet. So let him bring us a sign just as the former [messengers] were sent [with miracles].""
مَآ ءَامَنَتْ qَبْلَهُم مِّن qَرْyَةٍ أَهْلَkْنَـٰهَآ ۖ أَfَهُمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ
"Not a [single] city which We destroyed believed before them, so will they believe?"
وَمَآ أَرْsَلْنَا qَبْلَكَ إِلَّا rِjَالًۭا nُّوحِىٓ إِلَيْhِمْ ۖ fَٱsْـَٔلُوٓa۟ أَهْلَ ٱlذِّkْرِ إِن kُntُمْ لَا tَعْلَمُونَ
"And We sent not before you, [O Muhammad], except men to whom We revealed [the message], so ask the people of the message if you do not know."
وَمَا jَعَلْنَـٰhُمْ jَسَدًۭا lَّā يَأْkُلُونَ ٱltَّ`āma wamā kānū khālidīna
"And We did not make the prophets forms not eating food, nor were they immortal [on earth]."
ثُمَّ صَدَقْنَـٰhُمُ ٱlْwَعْدَ fَأَnjَيْنَـٰhُمْ وَmَن nَّشَآءُ وَأَهْلَkْنَا ٱlْمُsْرِfِينَ
"Then We fulfilled for them the promise, and We saved them and whom We willed and destroyed the transgressors."
لَقَدْ أَنzَلْنَآ إِلَيْkُمْ kِtَـٰbًۭا fīhِ ذِkْرُkُمْ ۖ أَfَلَا tَعْqِلُونَ
"We have certainly sent down to you a Book in which is your mention. Then will you not reason?"
وَkَمْ قَصَمْنَا مِن qَرْyَةٍۢ kَانَتْ ظَالِمَةًۭ وَأَنشَأْنَا بَعْدَهَا قَوْmًا ءَاخَرِينَ
"And how many a city which was unjust have We shattered and produced after it another people."
fَلَمَّآ أَحَسُّوا۟ بَأْسَنَآ إِذَا hُمْ mِّنْhَا يَرْkُضُونَ
"And when they perceived Our punishment, at once they fled from it."
لَا tَرْkُḍُوا۟ وَٱrْjِcُوٓa۟ إِلَىٰ مَآ أُtْرِfْتُمْ fīhِ وَmَسَـٰkِنِkُمْ لَعَلَّkُمْ tُsْـَٔلُونَ
"[Some angels said], "Do not flee but return to where you were given luxury and to your homes - perhaps you will be questioned.""
قَالُوا۟ يَـٰwَيْلَنَآ إِنَّا kُنَّا ظَـٰlِمِينَ
"They said, "O woe to us! Indeed, we were wrongdoers.""
fَمَا zَالَتْ tِلْكَ dَعْوَىٰhُمْ حَتَّىٰ jَعَلْنَـٰhُمْ حَصِيدًا خَـٰmِدِينَ
"And that declaration of theirs did not cease until We made them [as] a harvest, extinct."
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱlsَّmَآءَ وَٱlْأَرْضَ وَmَا bَيْنَهُمَا لَـٰعِبِينَ
"And We did not create the heaven and earth and that between them in play."
لَوْ أَرَدْنَآ أَن nَّtَّخِذَ لَهْوًۭا lَّٱtَّخَذْنَـٰهُ مِن lَّdُنَّآ إِن kُنَّا fَـٰcِلِينَ
"Had We intended to take a diversion, We would have taken it from [what is] with Us - if [indeed] We were to do so."
bَلْ نَقْذِfُ بِٱlْحَقِّ عَلَى ٱlْبَـٰطِلِ fَيَدْمَغُهُۥ fَإِذَا hُوَ zَاهِqٌۭ ۚ وَلَkُمُ ٱlْwَيْلُ mِمَّا tَصِfُونَ
"Rather, We dash the truth upon falsehood, and it destroys it, and thereupon it departs. And for you is destruction from that which you describe."
وَلَهُۥ مَن fِى ٱlsَّmَـٰوَٰtِ وَٱlْأَرْضِ ۚ وَmَنْ عِndَهُۥ لَا يَsْتَkْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهِۦ وَلَا يَsْتَحْسِرُونَ
"To Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those near Him are not prevented by arrogance from His worship, nor do they tire."
يُsَبِّحُونَ ٱlَّyْلَ وَٱlnَّhَارَ لَا يَfْتُرُونَ
"They exalt [Him] night and day [and] do not slacken."
أَمِ ٱtَّخَذُوٓا۟ ءَالِهَةًۭ mِّنَ ٱlْأَرْضِ hُمْ يُnْشِرُونَ
"Or have they taken for themselves gods from the earth who resurrect [the dead]?"
لَوْ kَانَ fīhِمَآ ءَالِهَةٌ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ لَفَسَدَتَا ۚ fَسُbْحَـٰnَ ٱللَّهِ رَبِّ ٱlْعَرْشِ عَمَّا يَصِfُونَ
"Had there been within the heavens and earth gods besides Allah, they both would have been ruined. So exalted is Allah, Lord of the Throne, above what they describe."
لَا يُsْـَٔلُ عَمَّا يَfْعَلُ وَhُمْ يُsْـَٔلُونَ
"He is not questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned."
أَمِ ٱtَّخَذُوا۟ مِن dُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةًۭ ۖ qُلْ هَاتُوا۟ bُرْhَـٰnَkُمْ ۖ hَـٰذَا ذِkْرُ مَن mَّcِyَ وَذِkْرُ مَن qَبْلِى ۗ bَلْ أَkْثَرُhُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ٱlْحَقَّ ۖ fَهُم mُّcْرِضُونَ
"Or have they taken gods besides Him? Say, [O Muhammad], "Produce your proof. This is the message of those with me and the message of those before me." But most of them do not know the truth, so they are turning away."
وَمَآ أَرْsَلْنَا مِن qَبْلِكَ مِن rَّsُولٍ إِلَّا nُوحِىٓ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُۥ لَآ إِلَـٰhَ إِلَّآ أَنَا۠ fَٱcْبُdُونِ
"And We sent not before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, "There is no deity except Me, so worship Me.""
وَqَالُوا۟ ٱtَّخَذَ ٱlrَّحْمَـٰnُ وَلَدًۭا ۗ sُbْحَـٰnَهُۥ ۚ bَلْ عِبَاdٌۭ mُّkْرَمُونَ
"And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken a son." Exalted is He! Rather, they are [but] honored servants."
لَا يَsْبِqُونَهُۥ بِٱlْqَوْlِ وَhُم بِأَمْرِهِۦ يَعْمَلُونَ
"They cannot precede Him in speech, and they act by His command."
يَعْلَمُ مَا bَيْنَ أَيْdīhِمْ وَmَا خَلْfَهُمْ وَلَا يَشْfَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ٱrْتَضَىٰ وَhُم mِّنْ خَشْyَتِهِۦ مُشْfِqُونَ
"He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they cannot intercede except on behalf of one whom He has approved. And they, from fear of Him, are apprehensive."
۞ وَmَن yَقُلْ مِنْhُمْ إِنِّىٓ إِلَـٰhٌۭ mِّن dُonِهِۦ fَذَٰlِكَ nَjْzِīhِ jَهَنَّmَ ۚ kَذَٰlِكَ nَjْzِى ٱlžَّـٰlِمِينَ
"And whoever of them should say, "Indeed, I am a god besides Him"- that one We would recompense with Hell. Thus do We recompense the wrongdoers."
أَوَلَمْ yَرَ ٱlَّذِينَ kَفَرُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱlsَّmَـٰوَٰtِ وَٱlْأَرْضَ kَانَتَا رَتْqًۭا fَفَتَقْنَـٰhُمَا ۖ وَjَعَلْنَا مِنَ ٱlْمَآءِ kُلَّ شَىْءٍ حَىٍّ ۖ أَfَلَا yُؤْمِنُونَ
"Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?"
وَjَعَلْنَا fِى ٱlْأَرْضِ رَوَٰsِyَ أَن tَمِīdَ بِhِمْ وَjَعَلْنَا fīhā fِjājًۭa sُbُلًۭا lَّcَلَّhُمْ yَهْتَدُونَ
"And We placed within the earth firmly set mountains, lest it should shift with them, and We made therein [mountain] passes [as] roads that they might be guided."
وَjَعَلْنَا ٱlsَّmَآءَ sَقْfًۭa mَّحْfُوظًۭا ۖ وَhُمْ عَنْ ءَايَـٰtِهَا mُcْrِḍُونَ
"And We made the sky a protected ceiling, but they, from its signs, are turning away."
وَهُوَ ٱlَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱlَّyْلَ وَٱlnَّhَارَ وَٱlشَّmْسَ وَٱlْqَمَرَ ۖ kُلٌّۭ fِى fَلَkٍۢ yَسْبَحُونَ
"And it is He who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon; all [heavenly bodies] in an orbit are swimming."
وَمَا jَعَلْنَا lِبَشَرٍۢ mِّن qَبْلِكَ ٱlْخُلْدَ ۖ أَfَإِي۟n mِّtَّ fَهُمُ ٱlْخَـٰlِدُونَ
"And We did not grant to any man before you eternity [on earth]; so if you die - would they be eternal?"
kُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ ذَآئِqَةُ ٱlْمَوْtِ ۗ وَnَبْلُokُمْ بِٱlشَّrِّ وَٱlْخَيْرِ fِtْنَةًۭ ۖ وَإِلَيْنَا tُرْjَعُونَ
"Every soul will taste death. And We test you with evil and with good as trial; and to Us you will be returned."
وَإِذَا رَءَاكَ ٱlَّذِينَ kَفَرُوٓa۟ إِن yَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلَّا hُzُوًا أَهَـٰذَا ٱlَّذِى يَذْkُرُ ءَالِهَتَكُمْ وَhُم بِذِkْرِ ٱlrَّحْمَـٰnِ hُمْ kَـٰfِرُونَ
"And when those who disbelieve see you, [O Muhammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one who insults your gods?" And they are, at the mention of the Most Merciful, disbelievers."
خُلِqَ ٱlْإِنsَـٰnُ مِنْ عَjَلٍۢ ۚ sَأُوrِīkُمْ ءَايَـٰtِى fَلَا tَسْتَعْjِلُونِ
"Man was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not impatiently urge Me."
وَيَقُولُونَ mَتَىٰ هَـٰذَا ٱlْwَعْدُ إِن kُntُمْ صَـٰdِqِينَ
"And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful?""
لَوْ يَعْلَمُ ٱlَّذِينَ kَفَرُوا۟ حِينَ لَا يَkُfُّونَ عَن וُjُوهِهِمُ ٱlnَّارَ وَلَا عَن ظُhُurِهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُnْصَرُونَ
"If those who disbelieved but knew the time when they will not avert the Fire from their faces or from their backs and they will not be aided..."
bَلْ tَأْتīhِم bَغْتَةًۭ fَتَبْهَتُhُمْ fَلَا yَسْتَطِī`ūna rəddahā walā hum yunẓarūna
"Rather, it will come to them unexpectedly and bewilder them, and they will not be able to repel it, nor will they be reprieved."
وَلَقَدِ ٱsْتُhْzِئَ بِrُsُلٍۢ mِّن qَبْلِكَ fَحَاقَ بِٱlَّذِينَ sَخِرُوا۟ مِنْhُم mَّا kَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ yَسْتَهْzِءُونَ
"And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by what they used to ridicule."
قُلْ مَن يَkْلَؤُkُم بِٱlَّيْلِ وَٱlnَّhَارِ مِنَ ٱlrَّحْمَـٰnِ ۗ bَلْ هُمْ عَن ذِkْرِ رَبِّhِم مُّcْرِضُونَ
"Say, "Who can protect you at night and by day from the Most Merciful?" But they are, from the remembrance of their Lord, turning away."
أَمْ لَهُمْ ءَالِهَةٌۭ tَمْنَعُhُم mِّن dُونِنَا ۚ lَا yَسْتَطِī`ūna naṣra anfusihim walā hum minnā yuṣ'ḥabūna
"Or do they have gods to defend them other than Us? They are unable [even] to help themselves, nor can they be protected from Us."
bَلْ mَتَّcْنَا هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَءَابَآءَهُمْ حَتَّىٰ طَالَ عَلَيْhِمُ ٱlْعُمُرُ ۗ أَfَلَا يَرَوْnَ أَنَّا nَأْتِى ٱlْأَرْضَ nَنqُصُhā mìn aṭrāfihā afahumu al-ghālibūna
"But, We gave enjoyment to these [people of Makkah] and their fathers until life was prolonged for them. Then do they not see that We set upon the land, reducing it from its borders? So it is they who will overcome?"
qُلْ إِنَّmَآ أُنذِرُkُم بِٱlْوَحْyِ ۚ وَلَا يَsْمَعُ ٱlصُّمُّ ٱldُّcَآءَ إِذَا مَا يُnذَرُونَ
"Say, "I only warn you by revelation." But the deaf do not hear the call when they are warned."
وَلَئِن mَّsَّtْhُمْ نَفْحَةٌۭ mِّنْ عَذَاbِ رَبِّكَ لَيَقُولُنَّ يَـٰwَيْلَنَآ إِنَّا kُنَّا ظَـٰlِمِينَ
"And if [as much as] a whiff of the punishment of your Lord should touch them, they would surely say, "O woe to us! Indeed, we have been wrongdoers.""
وَنَضَعُ ٱlْمَوَٰzِينَ ٱlْqِسْṭَ لِيَوْmِ ٱlْqِيَـٰmَةِ fَلَا tُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌۭ شَيْـًۭٔا ۖ وَإِن kَانَ mِثْqَالَ حَبَّةٍۢ mِّنْ خَرْdَلٍ أَتَيْنَا بِhَا ۗ وَkَفَىٰ بِنَا حَـٰsِبِينَ
"And We place the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so no soul will be treated unjustly at all. And if there is [even] the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth. And sufficient are We as accountant."
وَلَقَدْ ءَاtَيْنَا مُوسَىٰ وَhَـٰrُونَ ٱlْfُرْqَانَ وَضِيَآءًۭ وَذِkْرًۭا lِّlْمُtَّqِينَ
"And We had already given Moses and Aaron the criterion and a light and a reminder for the righteous"
ٱlَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْnَ رَبَّhُم بِٱlْغَيْbِ وَhُم mِّنَ ٱlsَّā`ati mush'fiqūna
"Who fear their Lord unseen, while they are of the Hour apprehensive."
وَhَـٰذَا ذِkْرٌۭ mُّbَارَkٌ أَنzَلْنَـٰهُ ۚ أَfَأَntُمْ لَهُۥ mُnkِرُونَ
"And this [Qur'an] is a blessed message which We have sent down. Then are you with it unacquainted?"
۞ وَلَقَدْ ءَاtَيْنَآ إِبْرَٰهِīmَ rُsh'dahū min qablu wakunnā bihi `ālimīna
"And We had certainly given Abraham his sound judgement before, and We were of him well-Knowing."
إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِīhِ وَqَوْmِهِۦ مَا hَـٰذِهِ ٱltَّmāthīlu allatī antum lahā `ākifūna
"When he said to his father and his people, "What are these statues to which you are devoted?""
قَالُوا۟ وَjَدْنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا لَهَا عَـٰbِدِينَ
"They said, "We found our fathers worshippers of them.""
قَالَ لَقَدْ kُntُمْ أَntُمْ وَءَابَآؤُkُمْ fِى ضَلَـٰlٍۢ mُّbīnٍ
"He said, "You were certainly, you and your fathers, in manifest error.""
قَالُوٓا۟ أَjِئْتَنَا بِٱlْحَقِّ أَمْ أَntَ مِنَ ٱllَّـٰعِبِينَ
"They said, "Have you come to us with the truth, or are you of those who jest?""
قَالَ bَل rَّbُّkُمْ رَبُّ ٱlsَّmَـٰوَٰtِ وَٱlْأَرْضِ ٱlَّذِى fَṭَرَهُnَّ وَأَنَا۠ عَلَىٰ ذَٰlِkُم mِّنَ ٱlshَّـٰhِdِينَ
"He said, "[No], rather, your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth who created them, and I, to that, am of those who testify."
وَtَٱللَّهِ لَأَkīdənna aṣnāmakum ba`da an tuwallū mud'birīna
"And [I swear] by Allah, I will surely plan against your idols after you have turned and gone away.""
fَjَعَلَهُمْ jُذَٰذًا إِلَّا kَبīrًۭا lَّhُمْ لَعَلَّhُمْ إِلَيْهِ yَرْjِcُونَ
"So he made them into fragments, except a large one among them, that they might return to it [and question it]."
قَالُوا۟ مَن fَعَلَ هَـٰذَا بِـَٔالِهَتِنَآ إِنَّهُۥ لَمِنَ ٱlžَّـٰlِمِينَ
"They said, "Who has done this to our gods? Indeed, he is among the wrongdoers.""

"They said, "We heard a youth mentioning them who is called Abraham.""
قَالُوا۟ fَأْتُوا۟ بِهِۦ عَلَىٰٓ أَعْyُنِ ٱlnَّاسِ لَعَلَّhُمْ يَشْhَدُونَ
"They said, "Then bring him before the eyes of the people that they may testify.""
قَالُوٓا۟ ءَأَntَ fَعَلْتَ هَـٰذَا بِـَٔالِهَتِنَا yā'ib'rāhīmu
"They said, "Have you done this to our gods, O Abraham?""
قَالَ bَلْ fَعَلَهُۥ kَبīrُhُمْ هَـٰذَا fَٱsْـَٔلُuhُمْ إِن kānū yanṭiqūna
"He said, "Rather, this - the largest of them - did it, so ask them, if they should [be able to] speak.""
fَرَjَعُوٓa۟ إِلَىٰٓ أَنfُsِهِمْ fَقَالُوٓa۟ إِنَّkُمْ أَntُمُ ٱlžَّـٰlِمُونَ
"So they returned to [blaming] themselves and said [to each other], "Indeed, you yourselves are the wrongdoers.""

"Then they reversed themselves, [saying], "You have already known that these do not speak!""
قَالَ أَfَتَعْبُdُونَ مِن dُونِ ٱllَّhِ mā lā yanfa`ukum shay'an walā yaḍurrukum
"He said, "Then do you worship instead of Allah that which does not benefit you at all or harm you?"
