ﰡ
Verse 1
ﭑﭒﭓﭔﭕ
ﭖ
Sad
Sad By the Quran with its reminding...!
Verse 2
ﭗﭘﭙﭚﭛﭜ
ﭝ
Yet the disbelievers are steeped in arrogance and hostility.
Verse 3
How many generations We have destroyed before them! They all cried out, once it was too late, for escape.
Verse 4
The disbelievers think it strange that a prophet of their own people has come to warn them: they say, ‘He is just a lying sorcerer.
Verse 5
How can he claim that all the gods are but one God? What an astonishing thing [to claim]!’
Verse 6
Their leaders depart, saying, ‘Walk away! Stay faithful to your gods! That is what you must do.
Verse 7
We did not hear any such claim in the last religion: it is all an invention.
Verse 8
Was the message sent only to him out of all of us?’ In fact they doubt My warning; in fact they have not tasted My punishment yet.
Verse 9
Do they possess the treasures of your Lord’s bounty, the Mighty, the All Giving?
Verse 10
Do they control the heavens and earth and everything between? Let them climb their ropes:
Verse 11
ﯟﯠﯡﯢﯣﯤ
ﯥ
their armed alliance is weak and will be crushed.
Verse 12
The people of Noah, Ad, and firmly-supported Pharaoh rejected their prophets before them.
Verse 13
Thamud, the people of Lot, and the Forest-Dwellers each formed opposition [against theirs].
Verse 14
They all rejected the mes-sengers and they were deservedly struck by My punishment:
Verse 15
all the disbelievers here are waiting for is a single blast that cannot be postponed.
Verse 16
They say, ‘Our Lord! Advance us our share of punishment before the Day of Reckoning!’
Verse 17
Bear their words patiently [Prophet]. Remember Our servant David, a man of strength who always turned to Us:
Verse 18
We made the mountains join him in glorifying Us at sunset and sunrise;
Verse 19
ﭦﭧﭨﭩﭪﭫ
ﭬ
and the birds, too, in flocks, all echoed his praise.
Verse 20
ﭭﭮﭯﭰﭱﭲ
ﭳ
We strengthened his kingdom; We gave him wisdom and a decisive way of speaking.
Verse 21
Have you heard the story of the two litigants who climbed into his private quarters?
Verse 22
When they reached David, he took fright, but they said, ‘Do not be afraid. We are two litigants, one of whom has wronged the other: judge between us fairly- do not be unjust- and guide us to the right path.
Verse 23
This is my brother. He had ninety-nine ewes and I just the one, and he said, “Let me take charge of her,” and overpowered me with his words.’
Verse 24
David said, ‘He has done you wrong by demanding to add your ewe to his flock. Many partners treat each other unfairly. Those who sincerely believe and do good deeds do not do this, but these are very few.’ [Then] David realized that We had been testing him, so he asked his Lord for forgiveness, fell down on his knees, and repented:
Verse 25
We forgave him [his misdeed]. His reward will be nearness to Us, a good place to return to.
Verse 26
‘David, We have given you mastery over the land. Judge fairly between people. Do not follow your desires, lest they divert you from God’s path: those who wander from His path will have a painful torment because they ignore the Day of Reckoning.’
Verse 27
It was not without purpose that We created the heavens and the earth and everything in between. That may be what the disbelievers assume- how they will suffer from the Fire!-
Verse 28
but would We treat those who believe and do good deeds and those who spread corruption on earth as equal? Would We treat those who are aware of God and those who recklessly break all bounds in the same way?
Verse 29
This is a blessed Scripture which We sent down to you [Muhammad], for people to think about its messages, and for those with understanding to take heed.
Verse 30
We gave David Solomon. He was an excellent servant who always turned to God.
Verse 31
ﮅﮆﮇﮈﮉﮊ
ﮋ
When well-bred light-footed horses were paraded before him near the close of day,
Verse 32
he kept saying, ‘My love of fine things is part of my remembering my Lord!’ until [the horses] disappeared from sight-
Verse 33
‘Bring them back!’ [he said] and started to stroke their legs and necks.
Verse 34
We certainly tested Solomon, reducing him to a mere skeleton on his throne.
Verse 35
He turned to Us and prayed: ‘Lord forgive me! Grant me such power as no one after me will have- You are the Most Generous Provider.’
Verse 36
So We gave him power over the wind, which at his request ran gently wherever he willed,
Verse 37
ﯥﯦﯧﯨ
ﯩ
and the jinn––every kind of builder and diver
Verse 38
ﯪﯫﯬﯭ
ﯮ
and others chained in fetters.
Verse 39
‘This is Our gift, so give or withhold as you wish without account.’
Verse 40
ﯷﯸﯹﯺﯻﯼ
ﯽ
His reward will be nearness to Us, and a good place to return to.
Verse 41
Bring to mind Our servant Job who cried to his Lord, ‘Satan has afflicted me with weariness and suffering.’
Verse 42
‘Stamp your foot! Here is cool water for you to wash in and drink,’
Verse 43
and We restored his family to him, with many more like them: a sign of Our mercy and a lesson to all who understand.
Verse 44
‘Take a small bunch of grass in your hand, and strike [her] with that so as not to break your oath.’ We found him patient in adversity; an excellent servant! He, too, always turned to God.
Verse 45
Remember Our servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, all men of strength and vision.
Verse 46
ﭶﭷﭸﭹﭺ
ﭻ
We caused them to be devoted to Us through their sincere remembrance of the Final Home:
Verse 47
ﭼﭽﭾﭿﮀ
ﮁ
with Us they will be among the elect, the truly good.
Verse 48
And remember Our servants Ishmael, Elisha, and Dhu ’l-Kifl, each of them truly good.
Verse 49
This is a lesson. The devout will have a good place to return to:
Verse 50
ﮔﮕﮖﮗﮘ
ﮙ
Gardens of lasting bliss with gates wide open.
Verse 51
They will be comfortably seated; they will call for abundant fruit and drink;
Verse 52
ﮢﮣﮤﮥﮦ
ﮧ
they will have well-matched [wives] with modest gaze.
Verse 53
ﮨﮩﮪﮫﮬ
ﮭ
‘This is what you are promised for the Day of Reckoning:
Verse 54
Our provision for you will never end.’
Verse 55
ﯗﯘﯙﯚﯛﯜ
ﯝ
But the evildoers will have the worst place to return to:
Verse 56
ﯞﯟﯠﯡ
ﯢ
Hell to burn in, an evil place to stay-
Verse 57
ﯣﯤﯥﯦ
ﯧ
all this will be theirs: let them taste it- a scalding, dark, foul fluid,
Verse 58
ﯨﯩﯪﯫ
ﯬ
and other such torments.
Verse 59
[It will be said], ‘Here is another crowd of people rushing headlong to join you.’ [The response will be], ‘They are not welcome! They will burn in the Fire.’
Verse 60
They will say to them, ‘You are not welcome! It was you who brought this on us, an evil place to stay,’
Verse 61
adding, ‘Our Lord, give double punishment to those who brought this upon us.’
Verse 62
They will say, ‘Why do we not see those we thought were bad
Verse 63
ﭜﭝﭞﭟﭠﭡ
ﭢ
and took as a laughing-stock? Have our eyes missed them?’
Verse 64
ﭣﭤﭥﭦﭧﭨ
ﭩ
This is how it will really be: the inhabitants of the Fire will blame one another in this way.
Verse 65
[Prophet] say, ‘I am only here to give warning. There is no god but God the One, the All Powerful,
Verse 66
Lord of the heavens and earth and everything between, the Almighty, the Most Forgiving.’
Verse 67
ﭿﮀﮁﮂ
ﮃ
Say, ‘This message is a mighty one,
Verse 68
ﮄﮅﮆ
ﮇ
yet you ignore it.
Verse 69
I have no knowledge of what those on high discuss:
Verse 70
it is only revealed to me that I am here to give clear warning.’
Verse 71
Your Lord said to the angels, ‘I will create a man from clay.
Verse 72
When I have shaped him and breathed from My Spirit into him, bow down before him.’
Verse 73
ﮯﮰﮱﯓ
ﯔ
The angels all bowed down together,
Verse 74
ﯕﯖﯗﯘﯙﯚ
ﯛ
but not Iblis, who was too proud. He became a rebel.
Verse 75
God said, ‘Iblis, what prevents you from bowing down to the man I have made with My own hands? Are you too high and mighty?’
Verse 76
Iblis said, ‘I am better than him: You made me from fire, and him from clay.’
Verse 77
ﯷﯸﯹﯺﯻ
ﯼ
‘Get out of here! You are rejected:
Verse 78
ﯽﯾﯿﰀﰁﰂ
ﰃ
My rejection will follow you till the Day of Judgement!’
Verse 79
ﰄﰅﰆﰇﰈﰉ
ﰊ
but Iblis said, ‘My Lord, grant me respite until the Day when they are raised from the dead,’
Verse 80
ﰋﰌﰍﰎ
ﰏ
so He said, ‘You have respite
Verse 81
ﰐﰑﰒﰓ
ﰔ
till the Appointed Day.’
Verse 82
ﰕﰖﰗﰘ
ﰙ
Iblis said, ‘I swear by Your might! I will tempt all
Verse 83
ﰚﰛﰜﰝ
ﰞ
but Your true servants.’
Verse 84
ﭑﭒﭓﭔ
ﭕ
God said, ‘This is the truth- I speak only the truth-
Verse 85
I will fill Hell with you and all those that follow you.’
Verse 86
[Prophet], say, ‘I ask no reward from you for this, nor do I claim to be what I am not:
Verse 87
ﭩﭪﭫﭬﭭ
ﭮ
this is only a warning for all people.
Verse 88
ﭯﭰﭱﭲ
ﭳ
In time you will certainly come to know its truth.’
