Al-Hijr الحجر

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الر ۚ تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ وَقُرْآنٍ مُّبِينٍ

bismillah ar-rahman ar-rahim alif lam ra tilka ayat al-kitab wa-qur'an mubin

Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur'an.

رُّبَمَا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ كَانُوا مُسْلِمِينَ

rubama yawaddu alladhina kafaru law kanu muslimin

Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims.

ذَرْهُمْ يَأْكُلُوا وَيَتَمَتَّعُوا وَيُلْهِهِمُ الْأَمَلُ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ

dharhum ya'kulu wa-yatamatta'u wa-yulhihim al-amal fa-sawfa ya'lamun

Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know.

وَمَا أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا وَلَهَا كِتَابٌ مَّعْلُومٌ

wa-ma ahlakna min qaryatin illa wa-laha kitabun ma'lum

And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree.

مَّا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَأْخِرُونَ

ma tasbiqu min ummatin ajalaha wa-ma yasta'khirun

No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter.

وَقَالُوا يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِي نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الذِّكْرُ إِنَّكَ لَمَجْنُونٌ

wa-qalu ya ayyuha alladhi nuzzila 'alayhi adh-dhakr innaka la-majnun

And they say, "O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad.

لَّوْ مَا تَأْتِينَا بِالْمَلَائِكَةِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ

law ma ta'tina bil-mala'ikah in kunta min as-sadiqin

Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful?"

مَا نُنَزِّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَمَا كَانُوا إِذًا مُّنظَرِينَ

ma nunazzil al-mala'ikah illa bil-haqq wa-ma kanu idhan muntazirin

We do not send down the angels except with truth; and the disbelievers would not then be reprieved.

إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ

inna nahnu nazzalna adh-dhikr wa-inna lahu la-hafizun

Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian.

وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ فِي شِيَعِ الْأَوَّلِينَ

wa-laqad arsalna min qablika fi shiya' al-awwalin

And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muhammad], among the sects of the former peoples.

وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ

wa ma ya'tihim min rasul illa kanu bihi yastahzi'un

And no messenger would come to them except that they ridiculed him.

كَذَٰلِكَ نَسْلُكُهُ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ

kadhalika naslukuhu fi qulub al-mujrimin

Thus do We insert denial into the hearts of the criminals.

لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ ۖ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ سُنَّةُ الْأَوَّلِينَ

la yu'minun bihi wa-qad khalat sunnat al-awwalin

They will not believe in it, while there has already occurred the precedent of the former peoples.

وَلَوْ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ فَظَلُّوا فِيهِ يَعْرُجُونَ

wa-law fatahna 'alayhim baban min as-sama' fa-zallu fihi ya'rujun

And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend,

لَقَالُوا إِنَّمَا سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَارُنَا بَلْ نَحْنُ قَوْمٌ مَّسْحُورُونَ

la-qalu innama sukkirat absaruna bal nahnu qawm mashurun

They would say, "Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic."

وَلَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا فِي السَّمَاءِ بُرُوجًا وَزَيَّنَّاهَا لِلنَّاظِرِينَ

wa-laqad ja'alna fi as-sama bujuran wa-zayyannaha li-n-nazirin

And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers.

وَحَفِظْنَاهَا مِن كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ رَّجِيمٍ

wa-hafiznaha min kull shaytan rajim

And We have protected it from every devil expelled [from the mercy of Allah]

إِلَّا مَنِ اسْتَرَقَ السَّمْعَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ شِهَابٌ مُّبِينٌ

illa mani straq as-sam' fa-atba'ahu shihab mubin

Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame.

وَالْأَرْضَ مَدَدْنَاهَا وَأَلْقَيْنَا فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ وَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مَّوْزُونٍ

wal-arda madadnaha wa-alqayna fiha rawasiya wa-anbatna fiha min kull shay' mawzun

And the earth - We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well-balanced thing.

وَجَعَلْنَا لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَعَايِشَ وَمَن لَّسْتُمْ لَهُ بِرَازِقِينَ

wa-ja'alna lakum fiha ma'ayisha wa-man lastum lahu bi-razigin

And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers.

وَإِن مِّن شَيْءٍ إِلَّا عِندَنَا خَزَائِنُهُ وَمَا نُنَزِّلُهُ إِلَّا بِقَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ

wa-in min shay' illa 'indana khaza'ina wa-ma nunazziluh illa biqadar ma'lum

And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure.

وَأَرْسَلْنَا الرِّيَاحَ لَوَاقِحَ فَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَأَسْقَيْنَاكُمُوهُ وَمَا أَنتُمْ لَهُ بِخَازِنِينَ

wa-arsalna ar-riyaha lawaqiha fa-anzalna min as-sama ma'an fa-asqaynakumuhu wa-ma antum lahu bi-khazinin

And We have sent the fertilizing winds and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers.

وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ نُحْيِي وَنُمِيتُ وَنَحْنُ الْوَارِثُونَ

wa-inna la-hnu nuhyi wa-numit wa-hnu al-warithun

And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor.

وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا الْمُسْتَقْدِمِينَ مِنكُمْ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا الْمُسْتَأْخِرِينَ

wa-laqad 'alimna al-mustaqdimin minkum wa-laqad 'alimna al-musta'khirin

And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come].

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُ حَكِيمٌ عَلِيمٌ

wa-inna rabbaka huwa yahshuruhum innahu hakim 'alim

And indeed, your Lord will gather them; indeed, He is Wise and Knowing.

وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ مِن صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ

wa-laqad khalaqna al-insan min salsal min hama' masnun

And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.

وَالْجَانَّ خَلَقْنَاهُ مِن قَبْلُ مِن نَّارِ السَّمُومِ

wal-jann khalaqnahu min qablu min nar as-samum

And the jinn We created before from scorching fire.

وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي خَالِقٌ بَشَرًا مِّن صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ

wa-idh qala rabbuka lil-mala'ika inni khaliqun basharan min salsalin min hama'in masnun

And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud.

فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُوا لَهُ سَاجِدِينَ

fa-idha sawwaytuhu wa-nafakhtu fihi min ruhi faqa'u lahu sajidin

And when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration."

فَسَجَدَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ كُلُّهُمْ أَجْمَعُونَ

fa-sajada al-mala'ikatu kulluhum ajma'un

So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely,

إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ أَن يَكُونَ مَعَ السَّاجِدِينَ

illa iblis aba an yakun ma'a as-sajidin

Except Iblees, he refused to be with those who prostrated.

قَالَ يَا إِبْلِيسُ مَا لَكَ أَلَّا تَكُونَ مَعَ السَّاجِدِينَ

qala ya iblis ma laka alla takun ma' as-sajidin

[Allah] said, O Iblees, what is [the matter] with you that you are not with those who prostrate?"

قَالَ لَمْ أَكُن لِّأَسْجُدَ لِبَشَرٍ خَلَقْتَهُ مِن صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ

qala lam akun li-asjuda libashar khalaqtahu min salsal min hama' masnun

He said, "Never would I prostrate to a human whom You created out of clay from an altered black mud."

قَالَ فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ

qala fa-khruj minha fa-innaka rajim

[Allah] said, "Then get out of it, for indeed, you are expelled.

وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكَ اللَّعْنَةَ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ

wa-inna 'alayka al-la'nata ila yawm ad-din

And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Recompense."

قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرْنِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ

qala rabbi fa-anzirni ila yawm yub'athun

He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."

قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ الْمُنظَرِينَ

qala fa-innaka min al-munzarin

[Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved

إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الْوَقْتِ الْمَعْلُومِ

ila yawm al-waqt al-ma'lum

Until the Day of the time well-known."

قَالَ رَبِّ بِمَا أَغْوَيْتَنِي لَأُزَيِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَأُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

qala rabbi bima aghwaytani la-uzayyinanna lahum fi al-ard wa-la-ughwiyannahum ajma'in

[Iblees] said, "My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all

إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُخْلَصِينَ

'illa 'ibadak minhum al-mukhlasin

Except, among them, Your chosen servants."

قَالَ هَـٰذَا صِرَاطٌ عَلَيَّ مُسْتَقِيمٌ

qala hadha sirat 'alayya mustaqim

[Allah] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight.

إِنَّ عِبَادِي لَيْسَ لَكَ عَلَيْهِمْ سُلْطَانٌ إِلَّا مَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْغَاوِينَ

inna 'ibadi laysa laka 'alayhim sultan illa mani ittaba'aka min al-ghawin

Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators.

وَإِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمَوْعِدُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

wa-inna jahannama la-maw'iduhum ajma'in

And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all.

لَهَا سَبْعَةُ أَبْوَابٍ لِّكُلِّ بَابٍ مِّنْهُمْ جُزْءٌ مَّقْسُومٌ

laha sab'at abwabin li-kull bab minha juz' maqsum

It has seven gates; for every gate is of them a portion designated."

إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ

inna al-muttaqin fi jannat wa-'uyun

Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs.

ادْخُلُوهَا بِسَلَامٍ آمِنِينَ

udkhuluha bi-salam aminin

[Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]."

وَنَزَعْنَا مَا فِي صُدُورِهِم مِّنْ غِلٍّ إِخْوَانًا عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مُّتَقَابِلِينَ

wa-naza'na ma fi sudurihim min ghillin ikhwanan 'ala sururin mutaqabilin

And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other.

لَا يَمَسُّهُمْ فِيهَا نَصَبٌ وَمَا هُم مِّنْهَا بِمُخْرَجِينَ

la yamassuhum fiha nasab wa-ma hum minha bi-mukhrajina

No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.

نَبِّئْ عِبَادِي أَنِّي أَنَا الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ

nabbi' 'ibadi anni ana al-ghafur ar-rahim

[O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful.

وَأَنَّ عَذَابِي هُوَ الْعَذَابُ الْأَلِيمُ

wa-anna 'adhabi huwa al-'adhab al-alim

And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment.

وَنَبِّئْهُمْ عَن ضَيْفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ

wa-nabbi'hum 'an dayf Ibrahim

And inform them about the guests of Abraham,

إِذْ دَخَلُوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا سَلَامًا قَالَ إِنَّا مِنكُمْ وَجِلُونَ

idh dakhalu 'alayh fa-qalu salaman qala inna minkum wajilun

When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful of you."

قَالُوا لَا تَوْجَلْ إِنَّا نُبَشِّرُكَ بِغُلَامٍ عَلِيمٍ

qalu la tawjal inna nubashshiruka bighulamin 'alim

[The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy."

قَالَ أَبَشَّرْتُمُونِي عَلَىٰ أَن مَّسَّنِيَ الْكِبَرُ فَبِمَ تُبَشِّرُونَ

qala a-bashshartumuni 'ala an massani al-kibr fa-bima tubashshirun

He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform?"

قَالُوا بَشَّرْنَاكَ بِالْحَقِّ فَلَا تَكُن مِّنَ الْقَانِطِينَ

qalu bashsharnaka bil-haqq fa-la takun min al-qanitin

They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing."

قَالَ وَمَن يَقْنَطُ مِن رَّحْمَةِ رَبِّهِ إِلَّا الضَّالُّونَ

qala wa-man yaqnatu min rahmat rabbih illa ad-dallun

He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray?"

قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ

qala fama khatbukum ayyuha al-mursalun

[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"

قَالُوا إِنَّا أُرْسِلْنَا إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ

qalu inna ursilna ila qawm mujrimin

They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals,

إِلَّا آلَ لُوطٍ إِنَّا لَمُنَجُّوهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

illa ala lut inna la-munajjuhum ajma'in

Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all

إِلَّا امْرَأَتَهُ قَدَّرْنَا ۙ إِنَّهَا لَمِنَ الْغَابِرِينَ

illa imra'atahu qaddarna innaha lamina al-ghabirin

Except his wife." Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind.

فَلَمَّا جَاءَ آلَ لُوطٍ الْمُرْسَلُونَ

fa-lamma ja'a al lut al-mursalun

And when the messengers came to the family of Lot,

قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ

qala innakum qawm munkarun

He said, "Indeed, you are people unknown."

قَالُوا بَلْ جِئْنَاكَ بِمَا كَانُوا فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ

qalu bal ji'naka bima kanu fihi yamtarun

They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing,

وَأَتَيْنَاكَ بِالْحَقِّ وَإِنَّا لَصَادِقُونَ

wa-ataynaka bil-haqq wa-inna la-sadiqun

And we have come to you with truth, and indeed, we are truthful.

فَأَسْرِ بِأَهْلِكَ بِقِطْعٍ مِّنَ اللَّيْلِ وَاتَّبِعْ أَدْبَارَهُمْ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتْ مِنكُمْ أَحَدٌ وَامْضُوا حَيْثُ تُؤْمَرُونَ

fa-asri bi-ahlik bi-qit' min al-layl wa-ttabi' adbbarahum wa-la yaltafit minkum ahad wa-mdu hayth tu'marun

So set out with your family during a portion of the night and follow behind them and let not anyone among you look back and continue on to where you are commanded."

وَقَضَيْنَا إِلَيْهِ ذَٰلِكَ الْأَمْرَ أَنَّ دَابِرَ هَـٰؤُلَاءِ مَقْطُوعٌ مُّصْبِحِينَ

wa-qadayna ilayhi dhalika al-amra anna dabir ha'ula'i maqtu' musbihin

And We conveyed to him [the decree] of that matter: that those [sinners] would be eliminated by early morning.

وَجَاءَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ يَسْتَبْشِرُونَ

wa-ja'a ahl al-madinah yastabshirun

And the people of the city came rejoicing.

قَالَ إِنَّ هَـٰؤُلَاءِ ضَيْفِي فَلَا تَفْضَحُونِ

qala inna ha'ula'i dayfi fa-la tafdahun

[Lot] said, "Indeed, these are my guests, so do not shame me.

وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُخْزُونِ

wa-ttaqu Allah wa-la tukhzun

And fear Allah and do not disgrace me."

قَالُوا أَوَلَمْ نَنْهَكَ عَنِ الْعَالَمِينَ

qalu a-wa-lam nanhak 'an al-'alamin

They said, "Have we not forbidden you from [protecting] people?"

قَالَ هَـٰؤُلَاءِ بَنَاتِي إِن كُنتُمْ فَاعِلِينَ

qala ha'ula'i banati in kuntum fa'ilin

[Lot] said, "These are my daughters - if you would be doers [of lawful marriage]."

لَعَمْرُكَ إِنَّهُمْ لَفِي سَكْرَتِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ

la-'amruk innahum lafi sakratihim ya'mahun

By your life, [O Muhammad], indeed they were, in their intoxication, wandering blindly.

فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ مُشْرِقِينَ

fa-akhadhat-humu as-sayhatu mushriqin

So the shriek seized them at sunrise.

فَجَعَلْنَا عَالِيَهَا سَافِلَهَا وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن سِجِّيلٍ

fa-ja'alna 'aliha safiliha wa-amtarna 'alayhim hijara min sijjil

And We made the highest part [of the city] its lowest and rained upon them stones of hard clay.

إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّلْمُتَوَسِّمِينَ

inna fi dhalika la-ayat lil-mutawassimin

Indeed in that are signs for those who discern.

وَإِنَّهَا لَبِسَبِيلٍ مُّقِيمٍ

wa-innaha la-bisabil muqim

And indeed, those cities are [situated] on an established road.

إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

inna fi dhalika la'ayah lil-mu'minin

Indeed in that is a sign for the believers.

وَإِن كَانَ أَصْحَابُ الْأَيْكَةِ لَظَالِمِينَ

wa-in kan ashab al-aykah la-zalimin

And the companions of the thicket were [also] wrongdoers.

فَانتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ وَإِنَّهُمَا لَبِإِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ

fa-intaqamna minhum wa-innahuma la-bi-imam mubin

So We took retribution from them, and indeed, both [cities] are on a clear highway.

وَلَقَدْ كَذَّبَ أَصْحَابُ الْحِجْرِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ

wa-laqad kadhdhaba ashab al-hijr al-mursalin

And certainly did the companions of Thamud deny the messengers.

وَآتَيْنَاهُمْ آيَاتِنَا فَكَانُوا عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ

wa-ataynahum ayatina fa-kanu 'anha mu'ridin

And We gave them Our signs, but from them they were turning away.

وَكَانُوا يَنْحِتُونَ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ بُيُوتًا آمِنِينَ

wa-kanu yanhitun min al-jibal buyutan aminin

And they used to carve from the mountains, houses, feeling secure.

فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ مُصْبِحِينَ

fa-akhadhat-humu as-sayhatu musbihin

But the shriek seized them at early morning.

فَمَا أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ

fama aghna 'anhum ma kanu yaksibun

So nothing availed them [from] what they used to earn.

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ۗ وَإِنَّ السَّاعَةَ لَآتِيَةٌ ۖ فَاصْفَحِ الصَّفْحَ الْجَمِيلَ

wa ma khalaqna as-samawat wal-ard wa ma baynahuma illa bil-haqq wa inna as-sa'ah la'atiyatun fasfah as-safh al-jamil

And We have not created the heavens and earth and that between them except in truth. And indeed, the Hour is coming; so forgive with gracious forgiveness.

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ الْخَلَّاقُ الْعَلِيمُ

inna rabbak huwa al-khallaq al-'alim

Indeed, your Lord - He is the Knowing Creator.

وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَاكَ سَبْعًا مِّنَ الْمَثَانِي وَالْقُرْآنَ الْعَظِيمَ

wa-laqad ataynaka sab'an mina al-mathani wal-qur'an al-'azim

And We have certainly given you, [O Muhammad], seven of the often repeated [verses] and the great Qur'an.

لَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَىٰ مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَاجًا مِّنْهُمْ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَاخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

la tamuddanna 'aynayka ila ma matta'na bihi azwajan minhum wa-la tahzan 'alayhim wa-khfid janahaka lil-mu'minin

Do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [certain] categories of the disbelievers, and do not grieve over them. And lower your wing to the believers

وَقُلْ إِنِّي أَنَا النَّذِيرُ الْمُبِينُ

wa-qul inni ana an-nadhir al-mubin

And say, "Indeed, I am the clear warner" -

كَمَا أَنزَلْنَا عَلَى الْمُقْتَسِمِينَ

kama anzalna 'ala al-muqtasimin

Just as We had revealed [scriptures] to the separators

الَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا الْقُرْآنَ عِضِينَ

alladhina ja'alu al-qur'an 'idin

Who have made the Qur'an into portions.

فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَسْأَلَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

fa-rabbika la-nas'alannahum ajma'in

So by your Lord, We will surely question them all

عَمَّا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ

'amma kanu ya'malun

About what they used to do.

فَاصْدَعْ بِمَا تُؤْمَرُ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ

fa-sda' bima tu'maru wa-a'rid 'an al-mushrikin

Then declare what you are commanded and turn away from the polytheists.

إِنَّا كَفَيْنَاكَ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ

inna kafaynaka al-mustahzi'in

Indeed, We are sufficient for you against the mockers

الَّذِينَ يَجْعَلُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا آخَرَ ۚ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ

alladhina yaj'aluna ma'a Allahi ilahan akhara fa-sawfa ya'lamun

Who make [equal] with Allah another deity. But they are going to know.

وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ يَضِيقُ صَدْرُكَ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ

wa-laqad na'lamu annaka yadiqu sadruka bima yaqulun

And We already know that your breast is constrained by what they say.

فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَكُن مِّنَ السَّاجِدِينَ

fa-sabbih bi-hamd rabbak wa-kun min as-sajidin

So exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord and be of those who prostrate [to Him].

وَاعْبُدْ رَبَّكَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِيَكَ الْيَقِينُ

wa'bud rabbak hatta ya'tiyak al-yaqin

And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (death).
