وَٱلۡكِتَٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِينِ
By the Scripture that makes things clear,
إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَٰهُ فِي لَيۡلَةٖ مُّبَٰرَكَةٍۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ
truly We sent it down on a blessed night––We have always sent warnings––
فِيهَا يُفۡرَقُ كُلُّ أَمۡرٍ حَكِيمٍ
a night when every matter of wisdom was made distinct
أَمۡرٗا مِّنۡ عِندِنَآۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرۡسِلِينَ
at Our command––We have always sent messages to man––
رَحۡمَةٗ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ
as a mercy [Prophet] from your Lord who sees and knows all,
رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَآۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ
Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything between––if only you people were firm believers––
لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحۡيِۦ وَيُمِيتُۖ رَبُّكُمۡ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
there is no god but Him: He gives life and death––He is your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers––
