who shun idle talk,
Verse 4
ﭡﭢﭣﭤ
ﭥ
who pay the prescribed alms,
Verse 5
ﭦﭧﭨﭩ
ﭪ
who guard their chastity
Verse 6
except with their spouses or their slaves––with these they are not to blame,
Verse 7
but anyone who seeks more than this is exceeding the limits––
Verse 8
ﭾﭿﮀﮁﮂ
ﮃ
who are faithful to their trusts and pledges
Verse 9
ﮄﮅﮆﮇﮈ
ﮉ
and who keep up their prayers,
Verse 10
ﮊﮋﮌ
ﮍ
will rightly be given
Verse 11
ﮎﮏﮐﮑﮒﮓ
ﮔ
Paradise as their own, there to remain.
Verse 12
We created man from an essence of clay,
Verse 13
ﮝﮞﮟﮠﮡﮢ
ﮣ
then We placed him as a drop of fluid in a safe place,
Verse 14
then We made that drop into a clinging form, and We made that form into a lump of flesh, and We made that lump into bones, and We clothed those bones with flesh, and later We made him into other forms––glory be to God, the best of creators!––
Verse 15
ﯜﯝﯞﯟﯠ
ﯡ
then you will die
Verse 16
ﯢﯣﯤﯥﯦ
ﯧ
and then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will be raised up again.
Verse 17
We created seven levels above you: We are never unmindful of Our creation.
Verse 18
We sent water down from the sky in due measure and lodged it in the earth––We have the power to take it all away if We so wish––
Verse 19
with it We produced for you gardens of date palms and vines, with many fruits there for you to eat,
Verse 20
and a tree, growing out of Mount Sinai, that produces oil and seasoning for your food.
Verse 21
There is a lesson for you in livestock: We produce milk for you to drink from their bellies. And they have many other benefits: you eat them
Verse 22
ﮉﮊﮋﮌ
ﮍ
and you ride on them, as you do in ships.
Verse 23
We sent Noah to his people. He said, ‘My people, serve God, for He is your only god. Will you not heed Him?’
Verse 24
But the leading disbelievers among his people said, ‘He is merely a mortal like you, trying to gain some superiority over you. God would have sent down angels if He had wished; besides, we never heard of anything like this from our forefathers.
Verse 25
He is just a madman, so let’s wait and see what happens to him.’
Verse 26
ﯧﯨﯩﯪﯫ
ﯬ
Noah said, ‘My Lord, help me! They call me a liar,’
Verse 27
and so We revealed to him: ‘Build the Ark under Our watchful eye and according to Our revelation. When Our command comes and water gushes up out of the earth,take pairs of every species on board, and your family, except for those on whom the sentence has already been passed- do not plead with me for the evildoers: they will be drowned-
Verse 28
and when you and your companions are settled on the Ark, say, “Praise be to God, who delivered us from the wicked people,”
Verse 29
and say, “My Lord, let me land with Your blessing: it is You who provide the best landings”.’
Verse 30
There are signs in all this: We have always put [people] to the test.
Verse 31
ﭲﭳﭴﭵﭶﭷ
ﭸ
Then We raised another generation after them,
Verse 32
and sent one of their own as a messenger: ‘Serve God, for He is your only god. Will you not heed Him?’
Verse 33
But the leading disbelievers among his people, who denied the Meeting in the Hereafter, to whom We had granted ease and plenty in this life, said, ‘He is just a mortal like you- he eats what you eat and drinks what you drink-
Verse 34
and you will really be losers if you obey a mortal like yourselves.
Verse 35
How can he promise you that after you die and become dust and bones you will be brought out alive?
Verse 36
ﯖﯗﯘﯙﯚ
ﯛ
What you are promised is very farfetched.
Verse 37
There is only the life of this world: we die, we live, but we will never be resurrected.
Verse 38
He is just a man making lies up about God. We will never believe in him.’
Verse 39
ﯴﯵﯶﯷﯸ
ﯹ
The prophet said, ‘My Lord, help me! They call me a liar,’
Verse 40
ﯺﯻﯼﯽﯾ
ﯿ
and so God said, ‘Soon they will be filled with regret.’
Verse 41
The blast justly struck them and We swept them away like scum. Away with the evildoers!
Verse 42
ﰊﰋﰌﰍﰎﰏ
ﰐ
We raised other generations after them-
Verse 43
no community can advance or delay its time-
Verse 44
and We sent Our messengers in succession: whenever a messenger came to a community they invariably called him a liar, so We destroyed them one after the other and made them into cautionary tales. Away with the disbelievers!
Verse 45
Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron, with Our signs and clear authority,
Verse 46
to Pharaoh and his prominent leaders, but they responded with arrogance: they were a haughty people.
Verse 47
They said, ‘Are we to believe in two mortals like us? And their people are our servants?’
Verse 48
ﮉﮊﮋﮌ
ﮍ
and so they called them both liars: they became another ruined people.
Verse 49
ﮎﮏﮐﮑﮒﮓ
ﮔ
We gave Moses the Scripture, so that they might be rightly guided.
Verse 50
We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign; We gave them shelter on a peaceful hillside with flowing water.
Verse 51
Messengers, eat good things and do good deeds: I am well aware of what you do.
Verse 52
This community of yours is one- and I am your Lord: be mindful of Me-
Verse 53
but they have split their community into sects, each rejoicing in their own.
Verse 54
ﯣﯤﯥﯦﯧ
ﯨ
So [Muhammad] leave them for a while steeped [in their ignorance].
Verse 55
Do they reckon that, by giving them wealth and sons,
Verse 56
We race to give them good things? They really have no idea!
Verse 57
Those who stand in awe of their Lord,
Verse 58
ﰂﰃﰄﰅﰆ
ﰇ
who believe in His messages,
Verse 59
ﰈﰉﰊﰋﰌ
ﰍ
who do not ascribe partners to Him,
Verse 60
who always give with hearts that tremble at the thought that they must return to Him,
Verse 61
are the ones who race toward good things, and they will be the first to get them.
Verse 62
We do not burden any soul with more than it can bear- We have a Record that tells the truth- they will not be wronged.
Verse 63
But the disbelievers’ hearts are steeped [in ignorance of ] all this; and there are other things besides this that they do.
Verse 64
When We bring Our punishment on those corrupted with wealth, they will cry for help:
Verse 65
‘Do not cry out today: you will get no help from Us.
Verse 66
Time and time again My messages were recited to you, but you turned arrogantly on your heels,
Verse 67
ﮝﮞﮟﮠ
ﮡ
and spent the evening making fun of [the Quran].’
Verse 68
Have they not contemplated the Word of God? Has something come to them that did not come to their forefathers?
Verse 69
Do they not recognize their Messenger? So why do they reject him?
Verse 70
Why do they say he is possessed? He has brought them the truth and most of them hate it,
Verse 71
but if the truth were in accordance with their desires, the heavens, the earth, and everyone in them would disintegrate. We have brought them their Reminder and they turn away from it.
Verse 72
Do you [Prophet] ask them for any payment? Your Lord’s is the best payment: He is the Best of Providers.
Verse 73
ﯿﰀﰁﰂﰃ
ﰄ
You call them to a straight path
Verse 74
and those who do not believe in the Hereafter turn away from that path.
Verse 75
Even if We were to show them mercy and relieve them of distress, they would blindly persist in their transgression.
Verse 76
We have already afflicted them, yet they did not submit to their Lord: they will not humble themselves
Verse 77
until We open a gate to severe torment for them- then they will be plunged into utter despair.
Verse 78
It is God who endowed you with hearing, sight, and hearts- how seldom you are grateful!
Verse 79
It is He who made you multiply on earth. It is to Him that you will be gathered:
Verse 80
it is He who gives life and death; the alternation of night and day depends on Him; will you not use your minds?
Verse 81
ﮔﮕﮖﮗﮘﮙ
ﮚ
But, like others before them,
Verse 82
they say, ‘What? When we die and turn to dust and bones, shall we really be resurrected?
Verse 83
We have heard such promises before, and so did our forefathers. These are just ancient fables.’
Verse 84
Say [Prophet], ‘Who owns the earth and all who live in it, if you know [so much]?’
Verse 85
ﯛﯜﯝﯞﯟﯠ
ﯡ
and they will reply, ‘God.’ Say, ‘Will you not take heed?’
Verse 86
Say, ‘Who is the Lord of the seven heavens? Who is the Lord of the Mighty Throne?’
Verse 87
ﯫﯬﯭﯮﯯﯰ
ﯱ
and they will reply, ‘God.’ Say, ‘Will you not be mindful?’
Verse 88
Say, ‘Who holds control of everything in His hand? Who protects, while there is no protection against Him, if you know [so much]?’
Verse 89
ﰁﰂﰃﰄﰅﰆ
ﰇ
and they will reply, ‘God.’ Say, ‘Then how can you be so deluded?’
Verse 90
ﭑﭒﭓﭔﭕ
ﭖ
The fact is, We brought them the truth and they are lying.
Verse 91
God has never had a child. Nor is there any god beside Him- if there were, each god would have taken his creation aside and tried to overcome the others. May God be exalted above what they describe!
Verse 92
ﭲﭳﭴﭵﭶﭷ
ﭸ
He knows what is not seen as well as what is seen; He is far above any partner they claim for Him.
Verse 93
ﭹﭺﭻﭼﭽﭾ
ﭿ
Say, ‘Lord, if You are going to show me the punishment You have promised them,
Verse 94
ﮀﮁﮂﮃﮄﮅ
ﮆ
then Lord, do not include me among the evildoers!’
Verse 95
We certainly are able to show you the punishment We have promised them.
Verse 96
Repel evil with good- We are well aware of what they attribute to Us-
Verse 97
and say, ‘Lord, I take refuge with You from the goadings of the evil ones;
Verse 98
ﮢﮣﮤﮥﮦ
ﮧ
I seek refuge with you, Lord, so that they may not come near me.’
Verse 99
When death comes to one of them, he cries, ‘My Lord, let me return
Verse 100
so as to make amends for the things I neglected.’ Never! This will not go beyond his words: a barrier stands behind such people until the very Day they are resurrected.
Verse 101
On that Day when the Trumpet is blown, the ties between them will be as nothing and they will not ask about each other:
Verse 102
ﯱﯲﯳﯴﯵﯶ
ﯷ
those whose good deeds weigh heavy will be successful,
Verse 103
but those whose balance is light will have lost their souls for ever and will stay in Hell-
Verse 104
ﰃﰄﰅﰆﰇﰈ
ﰉ
the Fire will scorch their faces and their lips will be twisted in pain.
Verse 105
‘Were My messages not recited over and over to you and still you rejected them?’
Verse 106
They will say, ‘Lord, our waywardness overcame us and we went astray.
Verse 107
Lord, take us away from this and if we go back to our old ways, then we shall really be evildoers.’
Verse 108
ﭫﭬﭭﭮﭯ
ﭰ
He will say, ‘Away with you! In you go! Do not speak to Me!
Verse 109
Among My servants there were those who said, “Lord, We believe. Forgive us and have mercy on us: You are the most merciful of all.”
Verse 110
But you kept on laughing at them: so intent were you on laughing at them that it made you forget My warning.
Verse 111
Today I have rewarded them for their patience: it is they who will succeed.’
Verse 112
He will say, ‘How many years were you on earth?’
Verse 113
and they will reply, ‘We stayed a day or a part of a day, but ask those who keep count.’
Verse 114
He will say, ‘You stayed but a little, if you had only known.
Verse 115
Did you think We had created you in vain, and that you would not be brought back to Us?’
Verse 116
Exalted be God, the true King, there is no god but Him, the Lord of the Glorious Throne!
Verse 117
Whoever prays to another god alongside Him- a god for whose existence he has no evidence- will face his reckoning with his Lord. Those who reject the truth will not prosper.
Verse 118
Say [Prophet], ‘Lord, forgive and have mercy: You are the most merciful of all.’
