| 1. * | By those that winnow with a winnowing |
| 2. * | And those that bear the burden (of the rain) |
| 3. * | And those that glide with ease (upon the sea) |
| 4. * | And those who distribute (blessings) by command, |
| 5. * | Lo! that wherewith ye are threatened is indeed true, |
| 6. * | And lo! the judgment will indeed befall. |
| 7. * | By the heaven full of paths, |
| 8. * | Lo! ye, forsooth, are of various opinion (concerning the truth). |
| 9. * | He is made to turn away from it who is (himself) averse. |
| 10. * | Accursed be the conjecturers |
| 11. * | Who are careless in an abyss! |
| 12. * | They ask: When is the Day of Judgment? |
| 13. * | (It is) the day when they will be tormented at the Fire, |
| 14. * | (And it will be said unto them): Taste your torment (which ye inflicted). This is what ye sought to hasten. |
| 15. * | Lo! those who keep from evil will dwell amid gardens and watersprings, |
| 16. * | Taking that which their Lord giveth them; for lo! aforetime they were doers of good; |
| 17. * | They used to sleep but little of the night, |
| 18. * | And ere the dawning of each day would seek forgiveness, |
| 19. * | And in their wealth the beggar and the outcast had due share. |
| 20. * | And in the earth are portents for those whose faith is sure. |
| 21. * | And (also) in yourselves. Can ye then not see? |
| 22. * | And in the heaven is your providence and that which ye are promised; |
| 23. * | And by the Lord of the heavens and the earth, it is the truth, even as (it is true) that ye speak. |
| 24. * | Hath the story of Abraham's honoured guests reached thee (O Muhammad)? |
| 25. * | When they came in unto him and said: Peace! he answered, Peace! (and thought): Folk unknown (to me). |
| 26. * | Then he went apart unto his housefolk so that they brought a fatted calf; |
| 27. * | And he set it before them, saying: Will ye not eat? |
| 28. * | Then he conceived a fear of them. They said: Fear not! and gave him tidings of (the birth of) a wise son. |
| 29. * | Then his wife came forward, making moan, and smote her face, and cried: A barren old woman! |
| 30. * | They said: Even so saith thy Lord. Lo! He is the Wise, the Knower. |
| 31. * | (Abraham) said: And (afterward) what is your errand, O ye sent (from Allah)? |
| 32. * | They said: Lo! we are sent unto a guilty folk, |
| 33. * | That we may send upon them stones of clay, |
| 34. * | Marked by thy Lord for (the destruction of) the wanton. |
| 35. * | Then we brought forth such believers as were there. |
| 36. * | But We found there but one house of those surrendered (to Allah). |
| 37. * | And We left behind therein a portent for those who fear a painful doom. |
| 38. * | And in Moses (too, there is a portent) when We sent him unto Pharaoh with clear warrant, |
| 39. * | But he withdrew (confiding) in his might, and said: A wizard or a madman. |
| 40. * | So We seized him and his hosts and flung them in the sea, for he was reprobate. |
| 41. * | And in (the tribe of) A'ad (there is a portent) when we sent the fatal wind against them. |
| 42. * | It spared naught that it reached, but made it (all) as dust. |
| 43. * | And in (the tribe of) Thamud (there is a portent) when it was told them: Take your ease awhile. |
| 44. * | But they rebelled against their Lord's decree, and so the thunderbolt overtook them even while they gazed; |
| 45. * | And they were unable to rise up, nor could they help themselves. |
| 46. * | And the folk of Noah aforetime. Lo! they were licentious folk. |
| 47. * | We have built the heaven with might, and We it is Who make the vast extent (thereof). |
| 48. * | And the earth have We laid out, how gracious is the Spreader (thereof)! |
| 49. * | And all things We have created by pairs, that haply ye may reflect. |
| 50. * | Therefor flee unto Allah; lo! I am a plain warner unto you from him. |
| 51. * | And set not any other god along with Allah; lo! I am a plain warner unto you from Him. |
| 52. * | Even so there came no messenger unto those before them but they said: A wizard or a madman! |
| 53. * | Have they handed down (the saying) as an heirloom one unto another? Nay, but they are froward folk. |
| 54. * | So withdraw from them (O Muhammad), for thou art in no wise blameworthy, |
| 55. * | And warn, for warning profiteth believers. |
| 56. * | I created the jinn and humankind only that they might worship Me. |
| 57. * | I seek no livelihood from them, nor do I ask that they should feed Me. |
| 58. * | Lo! Allah! He it is that giveth livelihood, the Lord of unbreakable might. |
| 59. * | And lo! for those who (now) do wrong there is an evil day like unto the evil day (which came for) their likes (of old); so let them not ask Me to hasten on (that day). |
| 60. * | And woe unto those who disbelieve, from (that) their day which they are promised. |
