| 1. * | I swear by those who draw themselves out in ranks |
| 2. * | Then those who drive away with reproof, |
| 3. * | Then those who recite, being mindful, |
| 4. * | Most surely your Allah is One: |
| 5. * | The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, and Lord of the easts. |
| 6. * | Surely We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment, the stars, |
| 7. * | And (there is) a safeguard against every rebellious Shaitan. |
| 8. * | They cannot listen to the exalted assembly and they are thrown at from every side, |
| 9. * | Being driven off, and for them is a perpetual chastisement, |
| 10. * | Except him who snatches off but once, then there follows him a brightly shining flame. |
| 11. * | Then ask them whether they are stronger in creation or those (others) whom We have created. Surely We created them of firm clay. |
| 12. * | Nay! you wonder while they mock, |
| 13. * | And when they are reminded, they mind not, |
| 14. * | And when they see a sign they incite one another to scoff, |
| 15. * | And they say: This is nothing but clear magic: |
| 16. * | What! when we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then certainly be raised, |
| 17. * | Or our fathers of yore? |
| 18. * | Say: Aye! and you shall be abject. |
| 19. * | So it shall only be a single cry, when lo! they shall see. |
| 20. * | And they shall say: O woe to us! this is the day of requital. |
| 21. * | This is the day of the judgment which you called a lie. |
| 22. * | Gather together those who were unjust and their associates, and what they used to worship |
| 23. * | Besides Allah, then lead them to the way to hell. |
| 24. * | And stop them, for they shall be questioned: |
| 25. * | What is the matter with you that you do not help each other? |
| 26. * | Nay! on that day they shall be submissive. |
| 27. * | And some of them shall advance towards others, questioning each other. |
| 28. * | They shall say: Surely you used to come to us from the right side. |
| 29. * | They shall say: Nay, you (yourselves) were not believers; |
| 30. * | And we had no authority over you, but you were an inordinate people; |
| 31. * | So the sentence of our Lord has come to pass against us: (now) we shall surely taste; |
| 32. * | So we led you astray, for we ourselves were erring. |
| 33. * | So they shall on that day be sharers in the chastisement one with another. |
| 34. * | Surely thus do We deal with the guilty. |
| 35. * | Surely they used to behave proudly when it was said to them: There is no god but Allah; |
| 36. * | And to say: What! shall we indeed give up our gods for the sake of a mad poet? |
| 37. * | Nay: he has come with the truth and verified the messengers. |
| 38. * | Most surely you will taste the painful punishment. |
| 39. * | And you shall not be rewarded except (for) what you did. |
| 40. * | Save the servants of Allah, the purified ones. |
| 41. * | For them is a known sustenance, |
| 42. * | Fruits, and they shall be highly honored, |
| 43. * | In gardens of pleasure, |
| 44. * | On thrones, facing each other. |
| 45. * | A bowl shall be made to go round them from water running out of springs, |
| 46. * | White, delicious to those who drink. |
| 47. * | There shall be no trouble in it, nor shall they be exhausted therewith. |
| 48. * | And with them shall be those who restrain the eyes, having beautiful eyes; |
| 49. * | As if they were eggs carefully protected. |
| 50. * | Then shall some of them advance to others, questioning each other. |
| 51. * | A speaker from among them shall say: Surely I had a comrade of mine, |
| 52. * | Who said: What! are you indeed of those who accept (the truth)? |
| 53. * | What! when we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then be certainly brought to judgment? |
| 54. * | He shall say: Will you look on? |
| 55. * | Then he looked down and saw him in the midst of hell. |
| 56. * | He shall say: By Allah! you had almost caused me to perish; |
| 57. * | And had it not been for the favor of my Lord, I would certainly have been among those brought up. |
| 58. * | Is it then that we are not going to die, |
| 59. * | Except our previous death? And we shall not be chastised? |
| 60. * | Most surely this is the mighty achievement. |
| 61. * | For the like of this then let the workers work. |
| 62. * | Is this better as an entertainment or the tree of Zaqqum? |
| 63. * | Surely We have made it to be a trial to the unjust. |
| 64. * | Surely it is a tree that-grows in the bottom of the hell; |
| 65. * | Its produce is as it were the heads of the serpents. |
| 66. * | Then most surely they shall eat of it and fill (their) bellies with it. |
| 67. * | Then most surely they shall have after it to drink of a mixture prepared in boiling water. |
| 68. * | Then most surely their return shall be to hell. |
| 69. * | Surely they found their fathers going astray, |
| 70. * | So in their footsteps they are being hastened on. |
| 71. * | And certainly most of the ancients went astray before them, |
| 72. * | And certainly We sent among them warners. |
| 73. * | Then see how was the end of those warned, |
| 74. * | Except the servants of Allah, the purified ones. |
| 75. * | And Nuh did certainly call upon Us, and most excellent answerer of prayer are We. |
| 76. * | And We delivered him and his followers from the mighty distress. |
| 77. * | And We made his offspring the survivors. |
| 78. * | And We perpetuated to him (praise) among the later generations. |
| 79. * | Peace and salutation to Nuh among the nations. |
| 80. * | Thus do We surely reward the doers of good. |
| 81. * | Surely he was of Our believing servants. |
| 82. * | Then We drowned the others |
| 83. * | And most surely Ibrahim followed his way. |
| 84. * | When he came to his Lord with a free heart, |
| 85. * | When he said to his father and his people: What is it that you worship? |
| 86. * | A lie-- gods besides Allah-- do you desire? |
| 87. * | What is then your idea about the Lord of the worlds? |
| 88. * | Then he looked at the stars, looking up once, |
| 89. * | Then he said: Surely I am sick (of your worshipping these). |
| 90. * | So they went away from him, turning back. |
| 91. * | Then he turned aside to their gods secretly and said: What! do you not eat? |
| 92. * | What is the matter with you that you do not speak? |
| 93. * | Then he turned against them secretly, smiting them with the right hand. |
| 94. * | So they (people) advanced towards him, hastening. |
| 95. * | Said he: What! do you worship what you hew out? |
| 96. * | And Allah has created you and what you make. |
| 97. * | They said: Build for him a furnace, then cast him into the burning fire. |
| 98. * | And they desired a war against him, but We brought them low. |
| 99. * | And he said: Surely I fly to my lord; He will guide me. |
| 100. * | My Lord! grant me of the doers of good deeds. |
| 101. * | So We gave him the good news of a boy, possessing forbearance. |
| 102. * | And when he attained to working with him, he said: O my son! surely I have seen in a dream that I should sacrifice you; consider then what you see. He said: O my father! do what you are commanded; if Allah please, you will find me of the patient ones. |
| 103. * | So when they both submitted and he threw him down upon his forehead, |
| 104. * | And We called out to him saying: O Ibrahim! |
| 105. * | You have indeed shown the truth of the vision; surely thus do We reward the doers of good: |
| 106. * | Most surely this is a manifest trial. |
| 107. * | And We ransomed him with a Feat sacrifice. |
| 108. * | And We perpetuated (praise) to him among the later generations. |
| 109. * | Peace be on Ibrahim. |
| 110. * | Thus do We reward the doers of good. |
| 111. * | Surely he was one of Our believing servants. |
| 112. * | And We gave him the good news of Ishaq, a prophet among the good ones. |
| 113. * | And We showered Our blessings on him and on Ishaq; and of their offspring are the doers of good, and (also) those who are clearly unjust to their own souls. |
| 114. * | And certainly We conferred a favor on Musa and Haroun. |
| 115. * | And We delivered them both and their people from the mighty distress. |
| 116. * | And We helped them, so they were the vanquishers. |
| 117. * | And We gave them both the Book that made (things) clear. |
| 118. * | And We guided them both on the right way. |
| 119. * | And We perpetuated (praise) to them among the later generations. |
| 120. * | Peace be on Musa and Haroun. |
| 121. * | Even thus do We reward the doers of good. |
| 122. * | Surely they were both of Our believing servants. |
| 123. * | And Ilyas was most surely of the messengers. |
| 124. * | When he said to his people: Do you not guard (against evil)? |
| 125. * | What! do you call upon Ba'l and forsake the best of the creators, |
| 126. * | Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of yore? |
| 127. * | But they called him a liar, therefore they shall most surely be brought up. |
| 128. * | But not the servants of Allah, the purified ones. |
| 129. * | And We perpetuated to him (praise) among the later generations. |
| 130. * | Peace be on Ilyas. |
| 131. * | Even thus do We reward the doers of good. |
| 132. * | Surely he was one of Our believing servants. |
| 133. * | And Lut was most surely of the messengers. |
| 134. * | When We delivered him and his followers, all-- |
| 135. * | Except an old woman (who was) amongst those who tarried. |
| 136. * | Then We destroyed the others. |
| 137. * | And most surely you pass by them in the morning, |
| 138. * | And at night; do you not then understand? |
| 139. * | And Yunus was most surely of the messengers. |
| 140. * | When he ran away to a ship completely laden, |
| 141. * | So he shared (with them), but was of those who are cast off. |
| 142. * | So the fish swallowed him while he did that for which he blamed himself |
| 143. * | But had it not been that he was of those who glorify (Us), |
| 144. * | He would certainly have tarried in its belly to the day when they are raised. |
| 145. * | Then We cast him on to the vacant surface of the earth while he was sick. |
| 146. * | And We caused to grow up for him a gourdplant. |
| 147. * | And We sent him to a hundred thousand, rather they exceeded. |
| 148. * | And they believed, so We gave them provision till a time. |
| 149. * | Then ask them whether your Lord has daughters and they have sons. |
| 150. * | Or did We create the angels females while they were witnesses? |
| 151. * | Now surely it is of their own lie that they say: |
| 152. * | Allah has begotten; and most surely they are liars. |
| 153. * | Has He chosen daughters in preference to sons? |
| 154. * | What is the matter with you, how is it that you judge? |
| 155. * | Will you not then mind? |
| 156. * | Or have you a clear authority? |
| 157. * | Then bring your book, if you are truthful. |
| 158. * | And they assert a relationship between Him and the jinn; and certainly the jinn do know that they shall surely be brought up; |
| 159. * | Glory be to Allah (for freedom) from what they describe; |
| 160. * | But not so the servants of Allah, the purified ones. |
| 161. * | So surely you and what you worship, |
| 162. * | Not against Him can you cause (any) to fall into trial, |
| 163. * | Save him who will go to hell. |
| 164. * | And there is none of us but has an assigned place, |
| 165. * | And most surely we are they who draw themselves out in ranks, |
| 166. * | And we are most surely they who declare the glory (of Allah). |
| 167. * | And surely they used to say: |
| 168. * | Had we a reminder from those of yore, |
| 169. * | We would certainly have been the servants of Allah-- the purified ones. |
| 170. * | But (now) they disbelieve in it, so they will come to know. |
| 171. * | And certainly Our word has already gone forth in respect of Our servants, the messengers: |
| 172. * | Most surely they shall be the assisted ones |
| 173. * | And most surely Our host alone shall be the victorious ones. |
| 174. * | Therefore turn away from them till a time, |
| 175. * | And (then) see them, so they too shall see. |
| 176. * | What! would they then hasten on Our chastisement? |
| 177. * | But when it shall descend in their court, evil shall then be the morning of the warned ones. |
| 178. * | And turn away from them till a time |
| 179. * | And (then) see, for they too shall see. |
| 180. * | Glory be to your Lord, the Lord of Honor, above what they describe. |
| 181. * | And peace be on the messengers. |
| 182. * | And all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. |
