Muhsin Khan - English translation

Verse 1

An-Najm


By the star when it goes down, (or vanishes).
Verse 5

He has been taught (this Quran) by one mighty in power [Jibrael (Gabriel)].
Verse 6

Dhu Mirrah (free from any defect in body and mind), Fastawa [then he (Jibrael - Gabriel) rose and became stable]. [Tafsir At-Tabari].
Verse 7

While he [Jibrael (Gabriel)] was in the highest part of the horizon,
Verse 8

Then he [Jibrael (Gabriel)] approached and came closer,

So did (Allah) convey the Inspiration to His slave [Muhammad SAW through Jibrael (Gabriel)].

The (Prophet's) heart lied not (in seeing) what he (Muhammad SAW) saw.
Verse 12

Will you then dispute with him (Muhammad SAW) about what he saw [during the Mi'raj: (Ascent of the Prophet SAW over the seven heavens)].
Verse 13

And indeed he (Muhammad SAW) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] at a second descent (i.e. another time).
Verse 14

Near Sidrat-ul-Muntaha [lote-tree of the utmost boundary (beyond which none can pass)],

The sight (of Prophet Muhammad SAW) turned not aside (right or left), nor it transgressed beyond (the) limit (ordained for it).
Verse 19

Have you then considered Al-Lat, and Al-'Uzza (two idols of the pagan Arabs).
Verse 20

And Manat (another idol of the pagan Arabs), the other third?
Verse 25

But to Allah belongs the last (Hereafter) and the first (the world).

And to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth, that He may requite those who do evil with that which they have done (i.e. punish them in Hell), and reward those who do good, with what is best (i.e. Paradise).

Those who avoid great sins (see the Quran, Verses: 6:152, 153) and Al-Fawahish (illegal sexual intercourse, etc.) except the small faults, verily, your Lord is of vast forgiveness. He knows you well when He created you from the earth (Adam), and when you were fetuses in your mothers' wombs. So ascribe not purity to yourselves. He knows best him who fears Allah and keep his duty to Him [i.e. those who are Al-Muttaqun (pious - see V. 2:2)].
Verse 33

Did you (O Muhammad SAW) observe him who turned away (from Islam).
Verse 37

And of Ibrahim (Abraham) who fulfilled (or conveyed) all that (what Allah ordered him to do or convey),

That no burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of another.
Verse 41

Then he will be recompensed with a full and the best recompense.
Verse 42

And that to your Lord (Allah) is the End (Return of everything).
Verse 43

And that it is He (Allah) Who makes (whom He wills) laugh, and makes (whom He wills) weep;
Verse 44

And that it is He (Allah) Who causes death and gives life;
Verse 46

From Nutfah (drops of semen male and female discharges) when it is emitted;
Verse 47

And that upon Him (Allah) is another bringing forth (Resurrection);
Verse 48

And that it is He (Allah) Who gives much or a little (or gives wealth and contentment),
Verse 49

And that He (Allah) is the Lord of Sirius (the star which the pagan Arabs used to worship);
Verse 50

And that it is He (Allah) Who destroyed the former 'Ad (people),

And the people of Nuh (Noah) aforetime, verily, they were more unjust and more rebellious and transgressing [in disobeying Allah and His Messenger Nuh (Noah)].
Verse 53

And He destroyed the overthrown cities [of Sodom to which Prophet Lout (Lot) was sent].
Verse 54

So there covered them that which did cover (i.e. torment with stones).
Verse 55

Then which of the Graces of your Lord (O man!) will you doubt.

This (Muhammad SAW) is a warner (Messenger) of the (series of) warners (Messengers) of old.
Verse 57

The Day of Resurrection draws near,
Verse 61

Wasting your (precious) lifetime in pastime and amusements (singing, etc.).
Verse 62

So fall you down in prostration to Allah, and worship Him (Alone).
