ﰡ
آية رقم 1
An-Nahl
The command of Allah is at hand, so do not hasten it. Glorified and Exalted is He above what they associate ˹with Him in worship˺!
آية رقم 2
He sends down the angels with revelation by His command to whoever He wills of His servants, ˹stating:˺ “Warn ˹humanity˺ that there is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Me, so be mindful of Me ˹alone˺.”
آية رقم 3
He created the heavens and the earth for a purpose. Exalted is He above what they associate with Him ˹in worship˺!
آية رقم 4
He created humans from a sperm-drop, then—behold!—they openly challenge ˹Him˺.
آية رقم 5
And He created the cattle for you as a source of warmth, food, and ˹many other˺ benefits.
آية رقم 6
They are also pleasing to you when you bring them home and when you take them out to graze.
آية رقم 7
And they carry your loads to ˹distant˺ lands which you could not otherwise reach without great hardship. Surely your Lord is Ever Gracious, Most Merciful.
آية رقم 8
˹He also created˺ horses, mules, and donkeys for your transportation and adornment. And He creates what you do not know.
آية رقم 9
It is upon Allah ˹alone˺ to ˹clearly˺ show the Straight Way. Other ways are deviant. Had He willed, He would have easily guided all of you.
آية رقم 10
He is the One Who sends down rain from the sky, from which you drink and by which plants grow for your cattle to graze.
آية رقم 11
With it He produces for you ˹various˺ crops, olives, palm trees, grapevines, and every type of fruit. Surely in this is a sign for those who reflect.
آية رقم 12
And He has subjected for your benefit the day and the night, the sun and the moon. And the stars have been subjected by His command. Surely in this are signs for those who understand.
آية رقم 13
And ˹He subjected˺ for you whatever He has created on earth of varying colours. Surely in this is a sign for those who are mindful.
آية رقم 14
And He is the One Who has subjected the sea, so from it you may eat tender seafood and extract ornaments to wear. And you see the ships ploughing their way through it, so you may seek His bounty and give thanks ˹to Him˺.
آية رقم 15
He has placed into the earth firm mountains, so it does not shake with you, as well as rivers, and pathways so you may find your way.
آية رقم 16
ﭝﭞﭟﭠﭡ
ﭢ
Also by landmarks and stars do people find their way.
آية رقم 17
Can the One Who creates be equal to those who do not? Will you not then be mindful?
آية رقم 18
If you tried to count Allah’s blessings, you would never be able to number them. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
آية رقم 19
ﭸﭹﭺﭻﭼﭽ
ﭾ
And Allah knows what you conceal and what you reveal.
آية رقم 20
But those ˹idols˺ they invoke besides Allah cannot create anything—they themselves are created.
آية رقم 21
They are dead, not alive—not even knowing when their followers will be resurrected.
آية رقم 22
Your God is ˹only˺ One God. As for those who do not believe in the Hereafter, their hearts are in denial, and they are too proud.
آية رقم 23
Without a doubt, Allah knows what they conceal and what they reveal. He certainly does not like those who are too proud.
آية رقم 24
And when it is said to them, “What has your Lord revealed?” They say, “Ancient fables!”
آية رقم 25
Let them bear their burdens in full on the Day of Judgment as well as some of the burdens of those they mislead without knowledge. Evil indeed is what they will bear!
آية رقم 26
Indeed, those before them had plotted, but Allah struck at the ˹very˺ foundation of their structure, so the roof tumbled over their heads, and the torment came upon them from where they did not expect.
آية رقم 27
Then on the Day of Judgment He will humiliate them and say, “Where are My ˹so-called˺ associate-gods for whose sake you used to oppose ˹the believers˺?” Those gifted with knowledge will say, “Surely disgrace and misery today are upon the disbelievers.”
آية رقم 28
Those whose souls the angels seize while they wrong themselves will then offer ˹full˺ submission ˹and say falsely,˺ ‘We did not do any evil.’ ˹The angels will say,˺ ‘No! Surely Allah fully knows what you used to do.
آية رقم 29
So enter the gates of Hell, to stay there forever. Indeed, what an evil home for the arrogant!’”
آية رقم 30
And ˹when˺ it is said to those mindful ˹of Allah˺, “What has your Lord revealed?” They say, “All the best!” For those who do good in this world, there is goodness. But far better is the ˹eternal˺ Home of the Hereafter. How excellent indeed is the home of the righteous:
آية رقم 31
the Gardens of Eternity which they will enter, under which rivers flow. In it they will have whatever they desire. This is how Allah rewards the righteous—
آية رقم 32
those whose souls the angels take while they are virtuous, saying ˹to them˺, “Peace be upon you! Enter Paradise for what you used to do.”
آية رقم 33
Are they only awaiting the coming of the angels or the command of your Lord ˹O Prophet˺? So were those before them. And Allah never wronged them, but it was they who wronged themselves.
آية رقم 34
Then the evil ˹consequences˺ of their deeds overtook them, and they were overwhelmed by what they used to ridicule.
آية رقم 35
The polytheists argue, “Had Allah willed, neither we nor our forefathers would have worshipped anything other than Him, nor prohibited anything without His command.” So did those before them. Is not the messengers’ duty only to deliver ˹the message˺ clearly?
آية رقم 36
We surely sent a messenger to every community, saying, “Worship Allah and shun false gods.” But some of them were guided by Allah, while others were destined to stray. So travel throughout the land and see the fate of the deniers!
آية رقم 37
Even though you ˹O Prophet˺ are keen on their guidance, Allah certainly does not guide those He leaves to stray, and they will have no helpers.
آية رقم 38
They swear by Allah their most solemn oaths that Allah will never raise the dead to life. Yes ˹He will˺! It is a true promise binding on Him, but most people do not know.
آية رقم 39
˹He will do that˺ to make clear to them what they disagreed on, and for the disbelievers to know that they were liars.
آية رقم 40
If We ever will something ˹to exist˺, all We say is: “Be!” And it is!
آية رقم 41
As for those who emigrated in ˹the cause of˺ Allah after being persecuted, We will surely bless them with a good home in this world. But the reward of the Hereafter is far better, if only they knew.
آية رقم 42
ﰄﰅﰆﰇﰈ
ﰉ
˹It is˺ they who have patiently endured, and in their Lord they put their trust.
آية رقم 43
We did not send ˹messengers˺ before you ˹O Prophet˺ except mere men inspired by Us. If you ˹polytheists˺ do not know ˹this already˺, then ask those who have knowledge ˹of the Scriptures˺.
آية رقم 44
˹We sent them˺ with clear proofs and divine Books. And We have sent down to you ˹O Prophet˺ the Reminder, so that you may explain to people what has been revealed for them, and perhaps they will reflect.
آية رقم 45
Do those who devise evil plots feel secure that Allah will not cause the earth to swallow them? Or that the torment will not come upon them in ways they cannot comprehend?
آية رقم 46
Or that He will not seize them while they go about ˹their day˺, for then they will have no escape?
آية رقم 47
Or that He will not destroy them gradually? But your Lord is truly Ever Gracious, Most Merciful.
آية رقم 48
Have they not considered how the shadows of everything Allah has created incline to the right and the left ˹as the sun moves˺, totally submitting to Allah in all humility?
آية رقم 49
And to Allah ˹alone˺ bows down ˹in submission˺ whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth of living creatures, as do the angels—who are not too proud ˹to do so˺.
آية رقم 50
They fear their Lord above them, and do whatever they are commanded.
آية رقم 51
And Allah has said, “Do not take two gods. There is only One God. So be in awe of Me ˹alone˺.”
آية رقم 52
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and to Him ˹alone˺ is the everlasting devotion. Will you then fear any other than Allah?
آية رقم 53
Whatever blessings you have are from Allah. Then whenever hardship touches you, to Him ˹alone˺ you cry ˹for help˺.
آية رقم 54
Then as soon as He removes the hardship from you, a group of you associates ˹others˺ with their Lord ˹in worship˺,
آية رقم 55
only returning Our favours with ingratitude. So enjoy yourselves, for you will soon know.
آية رقم 56
And they ˹even˺ assign to those ˹idols˺—who know nothing—a share of what We have provided for them. By Allah! You will certainly be questioned about whatever ˹lies˺ you used to fabricate ˹against Allah˺.
آية رقم 57
And they attribute ˹angels as˺ daughters to Allah—glory be to Him!—the opposite of what they desire for themselves.
آية رقم 58
Whenever one of them is given the good news of a baby girl, his face grows gloomy, as he suppresses his rage.
آية رقم 59
He hides himself from the people because of the bad news he has received. Should he keep her in disgrace, or bury her ˹alive˺ in the ground? Evil indeed is their judgment!
آية رقم 60
To those who disbelieve in the Hereafter belong all evil qualities, whereas to Allah belong the finest attributes. And He is the Almighty, All-Wise.
آية رقم 61
If Allah were to punish people ˹immediately˺ for their wrongdoing, He would not have left a single living being on earth. But He delays them for an appointed term. And when their time arrives, they cannot delay it for a moment, nor could they advance it.
آية رقم 62
They attribute to Allah what they hate ˹for themselves˺, and their tongues utter the lie that they will have the finest reward. Without a doubt, for them is the Fire, where they will be abandoned.
آية رقم 63
By Allah! We have surely sent messengers to communities before you ˹O Prophet˺, but Satan made their misdeeds appealing to them. So he is their patron today, and they will suffer a painful punishment.
آية رقم 64
We have revealed to you the Book only to clarify for them what they differed about, and as a guide and mercy for those who believe.
آية رقم 65
And Allah sends down rain from the sky, giving life to the earth after its death. Surely in this is a sign for those who listen.
آية رقم 66
And there is certainly a lesson for you in cattle: We give you to drink of what is in their bellies, from between digested food and blood: pure milk, pleasant to drink.
آية رقم 67
And from the fruits of palm trees and grapevines you derive intoxicants as well as wholesome provision. Surely in this is a sign for those who understand.
آية رقم 68
And your Lord inspired the bees: “Make ˹your˺ homes in the mountains, the trees, and in what people construct,
آية رقم 69
and feed from ˹the flower of˺ any fruit ˹you please˺ and follow the ways your Lord has made easy for you. From their bellies comes forth liquid of varying colours, in which there is healing for people. Surely in this is a sign for those who reflect.
آية رقم 70
Allah has created you, and then causes you to die. And some of you are left to reach the most feeble stage of life so that they may know nothing after having known much. Indeed, Allah is All-Knowing, Most Capable.
آية رقم 71
And Allah has favoured some of you over others in provision. But those who have been much favoured would not share their wealth with those ˹bondspeople˺ in their possession, making them their equals. Do they then deny Allah’s favours?
آية رقم 72
And Allah has made for you spouses of your own kind, and given you through your spouses children and grandchildren. And He has granted you good, lawful provisions. Are they then faithful to falsehood and ungrateful for Allah’s favours?
آية رقم 73
Yet they worship besides Allah those ˹idols˺ who do not afford them any provision from the heavens and the earth, nor do they have the power to.
آية رقم 74
So do not set up equals to Allah, for Allah certainly knows and you do not know.
آية رقم 75
Allah sets forth a parable: a slave who lacks all means, compared to a ˹free˺ man to whom We granted a good provision, of which he donates ˹freely,˺ openly and secretly. Are they equal? Praise be to Allah. In fact, most of them do not know.
آية رقم 76
And Allah sets forth a parable of two men: one of them is dumb, incapable of anything. He is a burden on his master. Wherever he is sent, he brings no good. Can such a person be equal to the one who commands justice and is on the Straight Path?
آية رقم 77
To Allah ˹alone˺ belongs ˹the knowledge of˺ the unseen in the heavens and the earth. Bringing about the Hour would only take the blink of an eye, or even less. Surely Allah is Most Capable of everything.
آية رقم 78
And Allah brought you out of the wombs of your mothers while you knew nothing, and gave you hearing, sight, and intellect so perhaps you would be thankful.
آية رقم 79
Have they not seen the birds glide in the open sky? None holds them up except Allah. Surely in this are signs for those who believe.
آية رقم 80
And Allah has made your homes a place to rest, and has given you tents from the hide of animals, light to handle when you travel and when you camp. And out of their wool, fur, and hair He has given you furnishings and goods for a while.
آية رقم 81
And Allah has provided you shade out of what He created, and has given you shelter in the mountains. He has also provided you with clothes protecting you from the heat ˹and cold˺, and armour shielding you in battle. This is how He perfects His favour upon you, so perhaps you will ˹fully˺ submit ˹to Him˺.
آية رقم 82
ﮆﮇﮈﮉﮊﮋ
ﮌ
But if they turn away, then your duty ˹O Prophet˺ is only to deliver ˹the message˺ clearly.
آية رقم 83
They are aware of Allah’s favours, but still deny them. And most of them are ˹truly˺ ungrateful.
آية رقم 84
˹Consider, O Prophet,˺ the Day We will call ˹a prophet as˺ a witness from every faith-community. Then the disbelievers will neither be allowed to plead nor appease ˹their Lord˺.
آية رقم 85
And when the wrongdoers face the punishment, it will not be lightened for them, nor will they be delayed ˹from it˺.
آية رقم 86
And when the polytheists see their associate-gods, they will say, “Our Lord! These are our associate-gods that we used to invoke besides You.” Their gods will throw a rebuttal at them, ˹saying,˺ “You are definitely liars.”
آية رقم 87
They will offer ˹full˺ submission to Allah on that Day, and whatever ˹gods˺ they fabricated will fail them.
آية رقم 88
For those who disbelieve and hinder ˹others˺ from the Way of Allah, We will add more punishment to their punishment for all the corruption they spread.
آية رقم 89
˹Consider, O Prophet,˺ the Day We will call against every faith-community a witness of their own. And We will call you to be a witness against these ˹people of yours˺. We have revealed to you the Book as an explanation of all things, a guide, a mercy, and good news for those who ˹fully˺ submit.
آية رقم 90
Indeed, Allah commands justice, grace, as well as courtesy to close relatives. He forbids indecency, wickedness, and aggression. He instructs you so perhaps you will be mindful.
آية رقم 91
Honour Allah’s covenant when you make a pledge, and do not break your oaths after confirming them, having made Allah your guarantor. Surely Allah knows all you do.
آية رقم 92
Do not be like the woman who ˹foolishly˺ unravels her yarn after it is firmly spun, by taking your oaths as a means of deceiving one another in favour of a stronger group. Surely Allah tests you through this. And on the Day of Judgment He will certainly make your differences clear to you.
آية رقم 93
Had Allah willed, He could have easily made you one community ˹of believers˺, but He leaves to stray whoever He wills and guides whoever He wills. And you will certainly be questioned about what you used to do.
آية رقم 94
And do not take your oaths as a means of deceiving one another or your feet will slip after they have been firm. Then you will taste the evil ˹consequences˺ of hindering ˹others˺ from the Way of Allah, and you will suffer a tremendous punishment.
آية رقم 95
And do not trade Allah’s covenant for a fleeting gain. What is with Allah is certainly far better for you, if only you knew.
آية رقم 96
Whatever you have will end, but whatever Allah has is everlasting. And We will certainly reward the steadfast according to the best of their deeds.
آية رقم 97
Whoever does good, whether male or female, and is a believer, We will surely bless them with a good life, and We will certainly reward them according to the best of their deeds.
آية رقم 98
When you recite the Quran, seek refuge with Allah from Satan, the accursed.
آية رقم 99
He certainly has no authority over those who believe and put their trust in their Lord.
آية رقم 100
His authority is only over those who take him as a patron and who—under his influence—associate ˹others˺ with Allah ˹in worship˺.
آية رقم 101
When We replace a verse with another—and Allah knows best what He reveals—they say, “You ˹Muḥammad˺ are just a fabricator.” In fact, most of them do not know.
آية رقم 102
Say, “The holy spirit has brought it down from your Lord with the truth to reassure the believers, and as a guide and good news for those who submit ˹to Allah˺.”
آية رقم 103
And We surely know that they say, “No one is teaching him except a human.” But the man they refer to speaks a foreign tongue, whereas this ˹Quran˺ is ˹in˺ eloquent Arabic.
آية رقم 104
Surely those who do not believe in Allah’s revelations will never be guided by Allah, and they will suffer a painful punishment.
آية رقم 105
No one fabricates lies except those who disbelieve in Allah’s revelations, and it is they who are the ˹true˺ liars.
آية رقم 106
Whoever disbelieves in Allah after their belief—not those who are forced while their hearts are firm in faith, but those who embrace disbelief wholeheartedly—they will be condemned by Allah and suffer a tremendous punishment.
آية رقم 107
This is because they prefer the life of this world over the Hereafter. Surely Allah never guides those who ˹choose to˺ disbelieve.
آية رقم 108
They are the ones whose hearts, ears, and eyes are sealed by Allah, and it is they who are ˹truly˺ heedless.
آية رقم 109
Without a doubt, they will be the losers in the Hereafter.
آية رقم 110
As for those who emigrated after being compelled ˹to renounce Islam˺, then struggled ˹in Allah’s cause˺, and persevered, your Lord ˹O Prophet˺ is truly All-Forgiving, Most Merciful after all.
آية رقم 111
˹Consider˺ the Day ˹when˺ every soul will come pleading for itself, and each will be paid in full for what it did, and none will be wronged.
آية رقم 112
And Allah sets forth the example of a city which was safe and at ease, receiving its provision in abundance from all directions. But its people met Allah’s favours with ingratitude, so Allah made them taste hunger and fear for their misdeeds.
آية رقم 113
A messenger of their own actually did come to them, but they denied him. So the torment overtook them while they persisted in wrongdoing.
آية رقم 114
So eat from the good, lawful things which Allah has provided for you, and be grateful for Allah’s favours, if you ˹truly˺ worship Him ˹alone˺.
آية رقم 115
He has only forbidden you ˹to eat˺ carrion, blood, swine, and what is slaughtered in the name of any other than Allah. But if someone is compelled by necessity—neither driven by desire nor exceeding immediate need—then surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
آية رقم 116
Do not falsely declare with your tongues, “This is lawful, and that is unlawful,” ˹only˺ fabricating lies against Allah. Indeed, those who fabricate lies against Allah will never succeed.
آية رقم 117
ﯤﯥﯦﯧﯨ
ﯩ
˹It is only˺ a brief enjoyment, then they will suffer a painful punishment.
آية رقم 118
To the Jews, We have forbidden what We related to you before. We did not wrong them, but it was they who wronged themselves.
آية رقم 119
As for those who commit evil ignorantly ˹or recklessly˺, then repent afterwards and mend their ways, then your Lord is surely All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
آية رقم 120
Indeed, Abraham was a model of excellence: devoted to Allah, ˹perfectly˺ upright—not a polytheist—
آية رقم 121
˹utterly˺ grateful for Allah’s favours. ˹So˺ He chose him and guided him to the Straight Path.
آية رقم 122
We blessed him with all goodness in this world, and in the Hereafter he will certainly be among the righteous.
آية رقم 123
Then We revealed to you ˹O Prophet, saying˺: “Follow the faith of Abraham, the upright, who was not one of the polytheists.”
آية رقم 124
˹Honouring˺ the Sabbath was ordained only for those who disputed about Abraham. And surely your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Judgment regarding their disputes.
آية رقم 125
Invite ˹all˺ to the Way of your Lord with wisdom and kind advice, and only debate with them in the best manner. Surely your Lord ˹alone˺ knows best who has strayed from His Way and who is ˹rightly˺ guided.
آية رقم 126
If you retaliate, then let it be equivalent to what you have suffered. But if you patiently endure, it is certainly best for those who are patient.
آية رقم 127
Be patient ˹O Prophet˺, for your patience is only with Allah’s help. Do not grieve over those ˹who disbelieve˺, nor be distressed by their schemes.
آية رقم 128
Surely Allah is with those who shun evil and who do good ˹deeds˺.
