| 1. * | Ta. Sin. Mim. |
| 2. * | These are revelations of the Scripture that maketh plain. |
| 3. * | It may be that thou tormentest thyself (O Muhammad) because they believe not. |
| 4. * | If We will, We can send down on them from the sky a portent so that their necks would remain bowed before it. |
| 5. * | Never cometh there unto them a fresh reminder from the Beneficent One, but they turn away from it. |
| 6. * | Now they have denied (the Truth); but there will come unto them tidings of that whereat they used to scoff. |
| 7. * | Have they not seen the earth, how much of every fruitful kind We make to grow therein? |
| 8. * | Lo! herein is indeed a portent; yet most of them are not believers. |
| 9. * | And lo! thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 10. * | And when thy Lord called Moses, saying: Go unto the wrongdoing folk, |
| 11. * | The folk of Pharaoh. Will they not ward off (evil)? |
| 12. * | He said: My Lord! Lo! I fear that they will deny me, |
| 13. * | And I shall be embarrassed, and my tongue will not speak plainly, therefor send for Aaron (to help me). |
| 14. * | And they have a crime against me, so I fear that they will kill me. |
| 15. * | He said: Nay, verily. So go ye twain with Our tokens. Lo! We shall be with you, Hearing. |
| 16. * | And come together unto Pharaoh and say: Lo! we bear a message of the Lord of the Worlds, |
| 17. * | (Saying): Let the Children of Israel go with us. |
| 18. * | (Pharaoh) said (unto Moses): Did we not rear thee among us as a child? And thou didst dwell many years of thy life among us, |
| 19. * | And thou didst that thy deed which thou didst, and thou wast one of the ingrates. |
| 20. * | He said: I did it then, when I was of those who are astray. |
| 21. * | Then I fled from you when I feared you, and my Lord vouchsafed me a command and appointed me (of the number) of those sent (by Him). |
| 22. * | And this is the past favour wherewith thou reproachest me: that thou hast enslaved the Children of Israel. |
| 23. * | Pharaoh said: And what is the Lord of the Worlds? |
| 24. * | (Moses) said: Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, if ye had but sure belief. |
| 25. * | (Pharaoh) said unto those around him: Hear ye not? |
| 26. * | He said: Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers. |
| 27. * | (Pharaoh) said: Lo! your messenger who hath been sent unto you is indeed a madman! |
| 28. * | He said: Lord of the East and the West and all that is between them, if ye did but understand. |
| 29. * | (Pharaoh) said: If thou choosest a god other than me, I assuredly shall place thee among the prisoners. |
| 30. * | He said: Even though I show thee something plain? |
| 31. * | (Pharaoh) said: Produce it then, if thou art of the truthful! |
| 32. * | Then he flung down his staff and it became a serpent manifest, |
| 33. * | And he drew forth his hand and lo! it was white to the beholders. |
| 34. * | (Pharaoh) said unto the chiefs about him: Lo! this is verily a knowing wizard, |
| 35. * | Who would drive you out of your land by his magic. Now what counsel ye? |
| 36. * | They said: Put him off, (him) and his brother, and send into the cities summoners |
| 37. * | Who shall bring unto thee every knowing wizard. |
| 38. * | So the wizards were gathered together at a set time on a day appointed. |
| 39. * | And it was said unto the people: Are ye (also) gathering? |
| 40. * | (They said): Aye, so that we may follow the wizards if they are the winners. |
| 41. * | And when the wizards came they said unto Pharaoh: Will there surely be a reward for us if we are the winners? |
| 42. * | He said: Aye, and ye will then surely be of those brought near (to me). |
| 43. * | Moses said unto them: Throw what ye are going to throw! |
| 44. * | Then they threw down their cords and their staves and said: By Pharaoh's might, lo! we verily are the winners. |
| 45. * | Then Moses threw his staff and lo! it swallowed that which they did falsely show. |
| 46. * | And the wizards were flung prostrate, |
| 47. * | Crying: We believe in the Lord of the Worlds, |
| 48. * | The Lord of Moses and Aaron. |
| 49. * | (Pharaoh) said: Ye put your faith in him before I give you leave. Lo! he doubtless is your chief who taught you magic! But verily ye shall come to know. Verily I will cut off your hands and your feet alternately, and verily I will crucify you every one. |
| 50. * | They said: It is no hurt, for lo! unto our Lord we shall return. |
| 51. * | Lo! we ardently hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we are the first of the believers. |
| 52. * | And We inspired Moses, saying: Take away My slaves by night, for ye will be pursued. |
| 53. * | Then Pharaoh sent into the cities summoners, |
| 54. * | (Who said): Lo! these indeed are but a little troop, |
| 55. * | And lo! they are offenders against us. |
| 56. * | And lo! we are a ready host. |
| 57. * | Thus did We take them away from gardens and watersprings, |
| 58. * | And treasures and a fair estate. |
| 59. * | Thus (were those things taken from them) and We caused the Children of Israel to inherit them. |
| 60. * | And they overtook them at sunrise. |
| 61. * | And when the two hosts saw each other, those with Moses said: Lo! we are indeed caught. |
| 62. * | He said: Nay, verily! for lo! my Lord is with me. He will guide me. |
| 63. * | Then We inspired Moses, saying: Smite the sea with thy staff. And it parted, and each part was as a mountain vast. |
| 64. * | Then brought We near the others to that place. |
| 65. * | And We saved Moses and those with him, every one; |
| 66. * | And We drowned the others. |
| 67. * | Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers. |
| 68. * | And lo, thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 69. * | Recite unto them the story of Abraham: |
| 70. * | When he said unto his father and his folk: What worship ye? |
| 71. * | They said: We worship idols, and are ever devoted unto them. |
| 72. * | He said: Do they hear you when ye cry? |
| 73. * | Or do they benefit or harm you? |
| 74. * | They said: Nay, but we found our fathers acting on this wise. |
| 75. * | He said: See now that which ye worship, |
| 76. * | Ye and your forefathers! |
| 77. * | Lo! they are (all) an enemy unto me, save the Lord of the Worlds, |
| 78. * | Who created me, and He doth guide me, |
| 79. * | And Who feedeth me and watereth me. |
| 80. * | And when I sicken, then He healeth me, |
| 81. * | And Who causeth me to die, then giveth me life (again), |
| 82. * | And Who, I ardently hope, will forgive me my sin on the Day of Judgment. |
| 83. * | My Lord! Vouchsafe me wisdom and unite me to the righteous. |
| 84. * | And give unto me a good report in later generations. |
| 85. * | And place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Delight, |
| 86. * | And forgive my father. Lo! he is of those who err. |
| 87. * | And abase me not on the day when they are raised, |
| 88. * | The day when wealth and sons avail not (any man) |
| 89. * | Save him who bringeth unto Allah a whole heart. |
| 90. * | And the Garden will be brought nigh for those who ward off (evil). |
| 91. * | And hell will appear plainly to the erring. |
| 92. * | And it will be said unto them: Where is (all) that ye used to worship |
| 93. * | Instead of Allah? Can they help you or help themselves? |
| 94. * | Then will they be hurled therein, they and the seducers |
| 95. * | And the hosts of Iblis, together. |
| 96. * | And they will say, when they are quarrelling therein: |
| 97. * | By Allah, of a truth we were in error manifest |
| 98. * | When we made you equal with the Lord of the Worlds. |
| 99. * | It was but the guilty who misled us. |
| 100. * | Now we have no intercessors |
| 101. * | Nor any loving friend. |
| 102. * | Oh, that we had another turn (on earth), that we might be of the believers! |
| 103. * | Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers! |
| 104. * | And lo, thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 105. * | Noah's folk denied the messengers (of Allah), |
| 106. * | When their brother Noah said unto them: Will ye not ward off (evil)? |
| 107. * | Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you, |
| 108. * | So keep your duty to Allah, and obey me. |
| 109. * | And I ask of you no wage therefor; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds. |
| 110. * | So keep your duty to Allah, and obey me. |
| 111. * | They said: Shall we put faith in thee, when the lowest (of the people) follow thee? |
| 112. * | He said: And what knowledge have I of what they may have been doing (in the past)? |
| 113. * | Lo! their reckoning is my Lord's concern, if ye but knew; |
| 114. * | And I am not (here) to repulse believers. |
| 115. * | I am only a plain warner. |
| 116. * | They said: If thou cease not, O Noah, thou wilt surely be among those stoned (to death). |
| 117. * | He said: My Lord! Lo! my own folk deny me. |
| 118. * | Therefor judge Thou between us, a (conclusive) judgment, and save me and those believers who are with me. |
| 119. * | And We saved him and those with him in the laden ship. |
| 120. * | Then afterward We drowned the others. |
| 121. * | Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers. |
| 122. * | And lo, thy Lord, He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 123. * | (The tribe of) A'ad denied the messengers (of Allah). |
| 124. * | When their brother Hud said unto them: Will ye not ward off (evil)? |
| 125. * | Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you, |
| 126. * | So keep your duty to Allah and obey me. |
| 127. * | And I ask of you no wage therefor; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds. |
| 128. * | Build ye on every high place a monument for vain delight? |
| 129. * | And seek ye out strongholds, that haply ye may last for ever? |
| 130. * | And if ye seize by force, seize ye as tyrants? |
| 131. * | Rather keep your duty to Allah, and obey me. |
| 132. * | Keep your duty toward Him Who hath aided you with (the good things) that ye know, |
| 133. * | Hath aided you with cattle and sons. |
| 134. * | And gardens and watersprings. |
| 135. * | Lo! I fear for you the retribution of an awful day. |
| 136. * | They said: It is all one to us whether thou preachest or art not of those who preach; |
| 137. * | This is but a fable of the men of old, |
| 138. * | And we shall not be doomed. |
| 139. * | And they denied him; therefor We destroyed them. Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers. |
| 140. * | And lo! thy Lord, He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 141. * | (The tribe of) Thamud denied the messengers (of Allah) |
| 142. * | When their brother Salih said unto them: Will ye not ward off (evil)? |
| 143. * | Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you, |
| 144. * | So keep your duty to Allah and obey me. |
| 145. * | And I ask of you no wage therefor; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds. |
| 146. * | Will ye be left secure in that which is here before us, |
| 147. * | In gardens and watersprings. |
| 148. * | And tilled fields and heavy-sheathed palm-trees, |
| 149. * | Though ye hew out dwellings in the mountain, being skilful? |
| 150. * | Therefor keep your duty to Allah and obey me, |
| 151. * | And obey not the command of the prodigal, |
| 152. * | Who spread corruption in the earth, and reform not. |
| 153. * | They said: Thou art but one of the bewitched; |
| 154. * | Thou art but a mortal like us. So bring some token if thou art of the truthful. |
| 155. * | He said: (Behold) this she-camel. She hath the right to drink (at the well), and ye have the right to drink, (each) on an appointed day. |
| 156. * | And touch her not with ill lest there come on you the retribution of an awful day. |
| 157. * | But they hamstrung her, and then were penitent. |
| 158. * | So the retribution came on them. Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers. |
| 159. * | And lo! thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 160. * | The folk of Lot denied the messengers (of Allah), |
| 161. * | When their brother Lot said unto them: Will ye not ward off (evil)? |
| 162. * | Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you, |
| 163. * | So keep your duty to Allah and obey me. |
| 164. * | And I ask of you no wage therefor; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds. |
| 165. * | What! Of all creatures do ye come unto the males, |
| 166. * | And leave the wives your Lord created for you? Nay, but ye are froward folk. |
| 167. * | They said: If thou cease not, O Lot, thou wilt soon be of the outcast. |
| 168. * | He said: I am in truth of those who hate your conduct. |
| 169. * | My Lord! Save me and my household from what they do. |
| 170. * | So We saved him and his household, every one, |
| 171. * | Save an old woman among those who stayed behind. |
| 172. * | Then afterward We destroyed the others. |
| 173. * | And We rained on them a rain. And dreadful is the rain of those who have been warned. |
| 174. * | Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers. |
| 175. * | And lo! thy Lord, He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 176. * | The dwellers in the wood (of Midian) denied the messengers (of Allah), |
| 177. * | When Shu'eyb said unto them: Will ye not ward off (evil)? |
| 178. * | Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you, |
| 179. * | So keep your duty to Allah and obey me. |
| 180. * | And I ask of you no wage for it; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds. |
| 181. * | Give full measure, and be not of those who give less (than the due). |
| 182. * | And weigh with the true balance. |
| 183. * | Wrong not mankind in their goods, and do not evil, making mischief, in the earth. |
| 184. * | And keep your duty unto Him Who created you and the generations of the men of old. |
| 185. * | They said: Thou art but one of the bewitched; |
| 186. * | Thou art but a mortal like us, and lo! we deem thee of the liars. |
| 187. * | Then make fragments of the heaven fall upon us, if thou art of the truthful. |
| 188. * | He said: My Lord is Best Aware of what ye do. |
| 189. * | But they denied him, so there came on them the retribution of the day of gloom. Lo! it was the retribution of an awful day. |
| 190. * | Lo! herein is indeed a portent; yet most of them are not believers. |
| 191. * | And lo! thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 192. * | And lo! it is a revelation of the Lord of the Worlds, |
| 193. * | Which the True Spirit hath brought down |
| 194. * | Upon thy heart, that thou mayst be (one) of the warners, |
| 195. * | In plain Arabic speech. |
| 196. * | And lo! it is in the Scriptures of the men of old. |
| 197. * | Is it not a token for them that the doctors of the Children of Israel know it? |
| 198. * | And if We had revealed it unto one of any other nation than the Arabs, |
| 199. * | And he had read it unto them, they would not have believed in it. |
| 200. * | Thus do We make it traverse the hearts of the guilty. |
| 201. * | They will not believe in it till they behold the painful doom, |
| 202. * | So that it will come upon them suddenly, when they perceive not. |
| 203. * | Then they will say: Are we to be reprieved? |
| 204. * | Would they (now) hasten on Our doom? |
| 205. * | Hast thou then seen, if We content them for (long) years, |
| 206. * | And then cometh that which they were promised, |
| 207. * | (How) that wherewith they were contented naught availeth them? |
| 208. * | And We destroyed no township but it had its warners |
| 209. * | For reminder, for We never were oppressors. |
| 210. * | The devils did not bring it down. |
| 211. * | It is not meet for them, nor is it in their power, |
| 212. * | Lo! verily they are banished from the hearing. |
| 213. * | Therefor invoke not with Allah another god, lest thou be one of the doomed. |
| 214. * | And warn thy tribe of near kindred, |
| 215. * | And lower thy wing (in kindness) unto those believers who follow thee. |
| 216. * | And if they (thy kinsfolk) disobey thee, say: Lo! I am innocent of what they do. |
| 217. * | And put thy trust in the Mighty, the Merciful. |
| 218. * | Who seeth thee when thou standest up (to pray) |
| 219. * | And (seeth) thine abasement among those who fall prostrate (in worship). |
| 220. * | Lo! He, only He, is the Hearer, the Knower. |
| 221. * | Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend? |
| 222. * | They descend on every sinful, false one. |
| 223. * | They listen eagerly, but most of them are liars. |
| 224. * | As for poets, the erring follow them. |
| 225. * | Hast thou not seen how they stray in every valley, |
| 226. * | And how they say that which they do not? |
| 227. * | Save those who believe and do good works, and remember Allah much, and vindicate themselves after they have been wronged. Those who do wrong will come to know by what a (great) reverse they will be overturned! |
