In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful | | بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ |
taseenmeem. (1) | | طسم ﴿1﴾ |
those are the verses of the clear book. (2) | | تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ ﴿2﴾ |
we shall in truth recite to you some of the news of moses and pharaoh for a nation who believe. (3) | | نَتْلُوا عَلَيْكَ مِن نَّبَإِ مُوسَى وَفِرْعَوْنَ بِالْحَقِّ لِقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿3﴾ |
pharaoh had exalted himself in the land and had divided its people into sects, one group he abased, putting their sons to death and sparing their women, for he was one of those who corrupted. (4) | | إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ عَلَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَجَعَلَ أَهْلَهَا شِيَعًا يَسْتَضْعِفُ طَائِفَةً مِّنْهُمْ يُذَبِّحُ أَبْنَاءهُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيِي نِسَاءهُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُفْسِدِينَ ﴿4﴾ |
but we wanted to be gracious to those abased in the land, and to make them leaders and inheritors, (5) | | وَنُرِيدُ أَن نَّمُنَّ عَلَى الَّذِينَ اسْتُضْعِفُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَنَجْعَلَهُمْ أَئِمَّةً وَنَجْعَلَهُمُ الْوَارِثِينَ ﴿5﴾ |
and to establish them in the land; and to show pharaoh and haman, and their armies, the very thing they dreaded. (6) | | وَنُمَكِّنَ لَهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَنُرِي فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامَانَ وَجُنُودَهُمَا مِنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا يَحْذَرُونَ ﴿6﴾ |
we revealed this to moses' mother: 'suckle him, but when you fear for him cast him into the water. neither fear, nor sorrow because we shall restore him to you and make him among the messengers. ' (7) | | وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى أُمِّ مُوسَى أَنْ أَرْضِعِيهِ فَإِذَا خِفْتِ عَلَيْهِ فَأَلْقِيهِ فِي الْيَمِّ وَلَا تَخَافِي وَلَا تَحْزَنِي إِنَّا رَادُّوهُ إِلَيْكِ وَجَاعِلُوهُ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿7﴾ |
then the family of pharaoh picked him out to be an enemy and a sorrow for them, indeed pharaoh and haman, and their army were sinners. (8) | | فَالْتَقَطَهُ آلُ فِرْعَوْنَ لِيَكُونَ لَهُمْ عَدُوًّا وَحَزَنًا إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامَانَ وَجُنُودَهُمَا كَانُوا خَاطِئِينَ ﴿8﴾ |
pharaoh's wife said to him: 'he will be a comfort to me and you. do not slay him, perhaps he may benefit us, or we will take him for our son. ' but they were unaware. (9) | | وَقَالَتِ امْرَأَتُ فِرْعَوْنَ قُرَّتُ عَيْنٍ لِّي وَلَكَ لَا تَقْتُلُوهُ عَسَى أَن يَنفَعَنَا أَوْ نَتَّخِذَهُ وَلَدًا وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ ﴿9﴾ |
in the morning the heart of moses' mother became empty. she would have revealed (who he was) had we not settled her heart so that she might be among the believers. (10) | | وَأَصْبَحَ فُؤَادُ أُمِّ مُوسَى فَارِغًا إِن كَادَتْ لَتُبْدِي بِهِ لَوْلَا أَن رَّبَطْنَا عَلَى قَلْبِهَا لِتَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿10﴾ |
she said to his sister: 'follow him. ' and she watched him from a distance, but they were unaware. (11) | | وَقَالَتْ لِأُخْتِهِ قُصِّيهِ فَبَصُرَتْ بِهِ عَن جُنُبٍ وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ ﴿11﴾ |
we had forbidden to him before that he should be suckled by foster mothers, therefore she (moses' sister) said (to them): 'shall i direct you to a people of a household who will take charge of him for you and advise him? ' (12) | | وَحَرَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَرَاضِعَ مِن قَبْلُ فَقَالَتْ هَلْ أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ يَكْفُلُونَهُ لَكُمْ وَهُمْ لَهُ نَاصِحُونَ ﴿12﴾ |
so, we restored him to his mother, so that she might be comforted and not sorrow, and that she might know that the promise of allah is true. yet most of them do not know. (13) | | فَرَدَدْنَاهُ إِلَى أُمِّهِ كَيْ تَقَرَّ عَيْنُهَا وَلَا تَحْزَنَ وَلِتَعْلَمَ أَنَّ وَعْدَ اللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿13﴾ |
and when he was full grown, and reached the perfection of his strength, we gave him judgment and knowledge. as such we recompense the gooddoers. (14) | | وَلَمَّا بَلَغَ أَشُدَّهُ وَاسْتَوَى آتَيْنَاهُ حُكْمًا وَعِلْمًا وَكَذَلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ ﴿14﴾ |
and he entered the city unnoticed by the people and found two men fighting, one was of his own party, and the other of his enemies. the one of his party appealed for his help against his enemy, moses struck and killed him, and said: 'this is the work of satan, he is surely a clear, misleading enemy. (15) | | وَدَخَلَ الْمَدِينَةَ عَلَى حِينِ غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ أَهْلِهَا فَوَجَدَ فِيهَا رَجُلَيْنِ يَقْتَتِلَانِ هَذَا مِن شِيعَتِهِ وَهَذَا مِنْ عَدُوِّهِ فَاسْتَغَاثَهُ الَّذِي مِن شِيعَتِهِ عَلَى الَّذِي مِنْ عَدُوِّهِ فَوَكَزَهُ مُوسَى فَقَضَى عَلَيْهِ قَالَ هَذَا مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّيْطَانِ إِنَّهُ عَدُوٌّ مُّضِلٌّ مُّبِينٌ ﴿15﴾ |
forgive me, my lord, for i have wronged myself, ' and so he forgave him; for he is indeed the forgiving, the most merciful. (16) | | قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَغَفَرَ لَهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ ﴿16﴾ |
he said: 'my lord as you have favored me, i will never be a helper to the wrongdoer. ' (17) | | قَالَ رَبِّ بِمَا أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيَّ فَلَنْ أَكُونَ ظَهِيرًا لِّلْمُجْرِمِينَ ﴿17﴾ |
in the morning, he was in the city, fearful and vigilant, then he whom he had helped the day before cried out to him again for help. 'clearly, ' said moses, 'you are quarrelsome. ' (18) | | فَأَصْبَحَ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ خَائِفًا يَتَرَقَّبُ فَإِذَا الَّذِي اسْتَنصَرَهُ بِالْأَمْسِ يَسْتَصْرِخُهُ قَالَ لَهُ مُوسَى إِنَّكَ لَغَوِيٌّ مُّبِينٌ ﴿18﴾ |
and when moses was about to seize he who was the enemy of both of them, he said: 'moses, would you kill me as you killed a living soul yesterday? you desire only to be a tyrant in the land, and you do not want to be among the reformers! ' (19) | | فَلَمَّا أَنْ أَرَادَ أَن يَبْطِشَ بِالَّذِي هُوَ عَدُوٌّ لَّهُمَا قَالَ يَا مُوسَى أَتُرِيدُ أَن تَقْتُلَنِي كَمَا قَتَلْتَ نَفْسًا بِالْأَمْسِ إِن تُرِيدُ إِلَّا أَن تَكُونَ جَبَّارًا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَمَا تُرِيدُ أَن تَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُصْلِحِينَ ﴿19﴾ |
then a man came running from the furthest part of the city, 'moses, ' he said, 'the assembly are plotting to kill you. leave, for i am one of your sincere advisers. ' (20) | | وَجَاء رَجُلٌ مِّنْ أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ يَسْعَى قَالَ يَا مُوسَى إِنَّ الْمَلَأَ يَأْتَمِرُونَ بِكَ لِيَقْتُلُوكَ فَاخْرُجْ إِنِّي لَكَ مِنَ النَّاصِحِينَ ﴿20﴾ |
so he left, fearful and vigilant, saying: 'my lord, save me from the harmdoing nation. ' (21) | | فَخَرَجَ مِنْهَا خَائِفًا يَتَرَقَّبُ قَالَ رَبِّ نَجِّنِي مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظَّالِمِينَ ﴿21﴾ |
and when he turned his face towards midian, he said: 'it may be that my lord will guide me on the right way. ' (22) | | وَلَمَّا تَوَجَّهَ تِلْقَاء مَدْيَنَ قَالَ عَسَى رَبِّي أَن يَهْدِيَنِي سَوَاء السَّبِيلِ ﴿22﴾ |
when he came to the water wells of midian he found there some people drawing water, and he found two women apart from them who were keeping back (their flocks). 'what is your business? ' he asked. they replied: 'we cannot draw water until the shepherds have driven away (their flocks), and our father is an elderly man. ' (23) | | وَلَمَّا وَرَدَ مَاء مَدْيَنَ وَجَدَ عَلَيْهِ أُمَّةً مِّنَ النَّاسِ يَسْقُونَ وَوَجَدَ مِن دُونِهِمُ امْرَأتَيْنِ تَذُودَانِ قَالَ مَا خَطْبُكُمَا قَالَتَا لَا نَسْقِي حَتَّى يُصْدِرَ الرِّعَاء وَأَبُونَا شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ ﴿23﴾ |
so he drew water for them and then retired to the shade, saying: 'o my lord, surely i have need of whatever good you send me. ' (24) | | فَسَقَى لَهُمَا ثُمَّ تَوَلَّى إِلَى الظِّلِّ فَقَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي لِمَا أَنزَلْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ ﴿24﴾ |
then, one of the two came to him walking shyly, and said: 'my father invites you, so that he can recompense you with a wage for having drawn water for us.' so when he came to him and told him his story, (the father) said: 'do not be afraid, you have been saved from the nation of harmdoers. ' (25) | | فَجَاءتْهُ إِحْدَاهُمَا تَمْشِي عَلَى اسْتِحْيَاء قَالَتْ إِنَّ أَبِي يَدْعُوكَ لِيَجْزِيَكَ أَجْرَ مَا سَقَيْتَ لَنَا فَلَمَّا جَاءهُ وَقَصَّ عَلَيْهِ الْقَصَصَ قَالَ لَا تَخَفْ نَجَوْتَ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظَّالِمِينَ ﴿25﴾ |
one of the two women said: 'father, hire him. the best who you can hire, is the strong, the honest. ' (26) | | قَالَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا يَا أَبَتِ اسْتَأْجِرْهُ إِنَّ خَيْرَ مَنِ اسْتَأْجَرْتَ الْقَوِيُّ الْأَمِينُ ﴿26﴾ |
he said: 'i will let you marry one of these two daughters of mine on condition that you hire yourself to me for eight years. if you complete ten that is of your own accord; i shall not press you. surely, you will find me, if allah wills, among the good. ' (27) | | قَالَ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُنكِحَكَ إِحْدَى ابْنَتَيَّ هَاتَيْنِ عَلَى أَن تَأْجُرَنِي ثَمَانِيَ حِجَجٍ فَإِنْ أَتْمَمْتَ عَشْرًا فَمِنْ عِندِكَ وَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَيْكَ سَتَجِدُنِي إِن شَاء اللَّهُ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ ﴿27﴾ |
'so be it between me and you, ' said moses. 'whichever of the two terms i fulfill, it will be no injustice to me. allah is the guardian of what we say. ' (28) | | قَالَ ذَلِكَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ أَيَّمَا الْأَجَلَيْنِ قَضَيْتُ فَلَا عُدْوَانَ عَلَيَّ وَاللَّهُ عَلَى مَا نَقُولُ وَكِيلٌ ﴿28﴾ |
and when moses had fulfilled the term and departed with his household, he saw from far away on the side of the tor a fire. he said to his household: 'stay here, for i can see a fire. perhaps i can bring you news, or a flame from the fire so that you can warm yourselves. ' (29) | | فَلَمَّا قَضَى مُوسَىالْأَجَلَ وَسَارَ بِأَهْلِهِ آنَسَ مِن جَانِبِ الطُّورِ نَارًا قَالَ لِأَهْلِهِ امْكُثُوا إِنِّي آنَسْتُ نَارًا لَّعَلِّي آتِيكُم مِّنْهَا بِخَبَرٍ أَوْ جَذْوَةٍ مِنَ النَّارِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَصْطَلُونَ ﴿29﴾ |
when he came to it, he was called from the right bank in the blessed plot of the tree (he heard speech without letter or voice coming from all directions): 'moses, i am allah, lord of the worlds. (30) | | فَلَمَّا أَتَاهَا نُودِي مِن شَاطِئِ الْوَادِي الْأَيْمَنِ فِي الْبُقْعَةِ الْمُبَارَكَةِ مِنَ الشَّجَرَةِ أَن يَا مُوسَى إِنِّي أَنَا اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ ﴿30﴾ |
cast down your staff. ' and when he saw his staff writhing as though it were a serpent, he turned about in retreat, and did not turn back. 'o moses, approach and have no fear. you are surely safe. (31) | | وَأَنْ أَلْقِ عَصَاكَ فَلَمَّا رَآهَا تَهْتَزُّ كَأَنَّهَا جَانٌّ وَلَّى مُدْبِرًا وَلَمْ يُعَقِّبْ يَا مُوسَى أَقْبِلْ وَلَا تَخَفْ إِنَّكَ مِنَ الْآمِنِينَ ﴿31﴾ |
put your hand in the neck (of your shirt), it will come out luminous, unharmed, and draw your arm to you so that you are not afraid. these are two signs from your lord to pharaoh and his assembly. surely, they were an impious nation.' (32) | | اسْلُكْ يَدَكَ فِي جَيْبِكَ تَخْرُجْ بَيْضَاء مِنْ غَيْرِ سُوءٍ وَاضْمُمْ إِلَيْكَ جَنَاحَكَ مِنَ الرَّهْبِ فَذَانِكَ بُرْهَانَانِ مِن رَّبِّكَ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَئِهِ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمًا فَاسِقِينَ ﴿32﴾ |
'my lord, ' (said moses), 'i have killed a living soul among them, and fear that they will slay me. (33) | | قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي قَتَلْتُ مِنْهُمْ نَفْسًا فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقْتُلُونِ ﴿33﴾ |
aaron my brother has a more eloquent tongue than i, (please) send him with me as a helper to confirm i speak truly, i fear that they will belie me. ' (34) | | وَأَخِي هَارُونُ هُوَ أَفْصَحُ مِنِّي لِسَانًا فَأَرْسِلْهُ مَعِيَ رِدْءًا يُصَدِّقُنِي إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ ﴿34﴾ |
he said: 'we will strengthen your arm with your brother, and appoint for you both an authority so that they shall not reach you. with our signs you and those who follow you shall be the victors. (35) | | قَالَ سَنَشُدُّ عَضُدَكَ بِأَخِيكَ وَنَجْعَلُ لَكُمَا سُلْطَانًا فَلَا يَصِلُونَ إِلَيْكُمَا بِآيَاتِنَا أَنتُمَا وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَكُمَا الْغَالِبُونَ ﴿35﴾ |
and when moses came to them with our clear signs, they said: 'this is nothing but forged sorcery. we have never heard of this among our fathers, the ancients.' (36) | | فَلَمَّا جَاءهُم مُّوسَى بِآيَاتِنَا بَيِّنَاتٍ قَالُوا مَا هَذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّفْتَرًى وَمَا سَمِعْنَا بِهَذَا فِي آبَائِنَا الْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿36﴾ |
moses replied: 'my lord knows well who brings guidance from him and who shall possess the last residence. the harmdoers will not prosper. ' (37) | | وَقَالَ مُوسَى رَبِّي أَعْلَمُ بِمَن جَاء بِالْهُدَى مِنْ عِندِهِ وَمَن تَكُونُ لَهُ عَاقِبَةُ الدَّارِ إِنَّهُ لَا يُفْلِحُ الظَّالِمُونَ ﴿37﴾ |
'assembly, ' said pharaoh, 'i do not know that you have any god except me! ' 'o haman, kindle a fire upon clay and make me a tower so that i can climb to see the god of moses, i think that he is one of the liars! ' (38) | | وَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ يَا أَيُّهَا الْمَلَأُ مَا عَلِمْتُ لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَهٍ غَيْرِي فَأَوْقِدْ لِي يَا هَامَانُ عَلَى الطِّينِ فَاجْعَل لِّي صَرْحًا لَّعَلِّي أَطَّلِعُ إِلَى إِلَهِ مُوسَى وَإِنِّي لَأَظُنُّهُ مِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ ﴿38﴾ |
he and his hosts became wrongfully proud in the land and they thought that they would never be returned to us. (39) | | وَاسْتَكْبَرَ هُوَ وَجُنُودُهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ وَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا يُرْجَعُونَ ﴿39﴾ |
therefore, we seized him and his hosts, and cast them into the sea. see how was the end of the harmdoers. (40) | | فَأَخَذْنَاهُ وَجُنُودَهُ فَنَبَذْنَاهُمْ فِي الْيَمِّ فَانظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الظَّالِمِينَ ﴿40﴾ |
we made them leaders inviting to the fire, and on the day of resurrection they shall not be victors. (41) | | وَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَدْعُونَ إِلَى النَّارِ وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَا يُنصَرُونَ ﴿41﴾ |
in this world we laid our curse on them, and on the day of resurrection they shall be among the exiled. (42) | | وَأَتْبَعْنَاهُمْ فِي هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا لَعْنَةً وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ هُم مِّنَ الْمَقْبُوحِينَ ﴿42﴾ |
and we gave moses the book, after we had destroyed the former generations, to be reflections for people and a guidance, and a mercy in order that they might remember. (43) | | وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ مِن بَعْدِ مَا أَهْلَكْنَا الْقُرُونَ الْأُولَى بَصَائِرَ لِلنَّاسِ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً لَّعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿43﴾ |
(prophet muhammad) you were not on the western side (of the mountain) when we decreed the commandment to moses, nor were you among those witnessing. (44) | | وَمَا كُنتَ بِجَانِبِ الْغَرْبِيِّ إِذْ قَضَيْنَا إِلَى مُوسَى الْأَمْرَ وَمَا كُنتَ مِنَ الشَّاهِدِينَ ﴿44﴾ |
we raised generations who lived long. you did not live among the people of midian, nor did you recite to them our verses; but we were sending messengers. (45) | | وَلَكِنَّا أَنشَأْنَا قُرُونًا فَتَطَاوَلَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعُمُرُ وَمَا كُنتَ ثَاوِيًا فِي أَهْلِ مَدْيَنَ تَتْلُو عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتِنَا وَلَكِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ ﴿45﴾ |
you were not present on the side of the tor when we called. yet as a mercy from your lord to warn a nation to whom no warner has been sent before, in order that they remember (46) | | وَمَا كُنتَ بِجَانِبِ الطُّورِ إِذْ نَادَيْنَا وَلَكِن رَّحْمَةً مِّن رَّبِّكَ لِتُنذِرَ قَوْمًا مَّا أَتَاهُم مِّن نَّذِيرٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿46﴾ |
and not say, when evil befalls them on account of that which their hands forwarded: 'our lord, why did you not send a messenger to us so that we might follow your verses and so that we might be among the believers. ' (47) | | وَلَوْلَا أَن تُصِيبَهُم مُّصِيبَةٌ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ فَيَقُولُوا رَبَّنَا لَوْلَا أَرْسَلْتَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولًا فَنَتَّبِعَ آيَاتِكَ وَنَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿47﴾ |
so when the truth (prophet muhammad) came to them from us, they said: 'why is he not given the like of that which was given to moses? ' but did they not also disbelieve in that which moses was given before! they say (about moses and aaron): 'two sorcerers supporting one another! ' and they said: 'we disbelieve both. ' (48) | | فَلَمَّا جَاءهُمُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ عِندِنَا قَالُوا لَوْلَا أُوتِيَ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَى أَوَلَمْ يَكْفُرُوا بِمَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَى مِن قَبْلُ قَالُوا سِحْرَانِ تَظَاهَرَا وَقَالُوا إِنَّا بِكُلٍّ كَافِرُونَ ﴿48﴾ |
say: 'if what you say is true, bring down from allah a book that is a better guidance than both, i will follow it! ' (49) | | قُلْ فَأْتُوا بِكِتَابٍ مِّنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ هُوَ أَهْدَى مِنْهُمَا أَتَّبِعْهُ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ ﴿49﴾ |
if they do not answer you, know that they are only following their desires. and who is further astray than he who is led by his desires without guidance from allah! allah does not guide the harmdoers. (50) | | فَإِن لَّمْ يَسْتَجِيبُوا لَكَ فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّمَا يَتَّبِعُونَ أَهْوَاءهُمْ وَمَنْ أَضَلُّ مِمَّنِ اتَّبَعَ هَوَاهُ بِغَيْرِ هُدًى مِّنَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ ﴿50﴾ |
we have brought them the word in order that they remember. (51) | | وَلَقَدْ وَصَّلْنَا لَهُمُ الْقَوْلَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿51﴾ |
those to whom we gave the book before, believe in it. (52) | | الَّذِينَ آتَيْنَاهُمُ الْكِتَابَ مِن قَبْلِهِ هُم بِهِ يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿52﴾ |
when it is recited to them, they say: 'we believe in it, because it is the truth from our lord. we surrendered ourselves before it came. (53) | | وَإِذَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْهِمْ قَالُوا آمَنَّا بِهِ إِنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّنَا إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبْلِهِ مُسْلِمِينَ ﴿53﴾ |
'their wage shall be given them twice, because they have endured patiently, averting evil with good and spending from what we have given them; (54) | | أُوْلَئِكَ يُؤْتَوْنَ أَجْرَهُم مَّرَّتَيْنِ بِمَا صَبَرُوا وَيَدْرَؤُونَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ السَّيِّئَةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ ﴿54﴾ |
and because when they hear idle talk they turn away from it and say: 'we have our deeds, and you have your deeds. peace be upon you. we do not desire the ignorant. ' (55) | | وَإِذَا سَمِعُوا اللَّغْوَ أَعْرَضُوا عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا لَنَا أَعْمَالُنَا وَلَكُمْ أَعْمَالُكُمْ سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ لَا نَبْتَغِي الْجَاهِلِينَ ﴿55﴾ |
you cannot guide whom you please; it is allah who guides whom he will. he knows well those who are guided. (56) | | إِنَّكَ لَا تَهْدِي مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ يَهْدِي مَن يَشَاءُ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِينَ ﴿56﴾ |
they say: 'if we follow the guidance with you, we shall be driven from our land. ' but have we not given them a secure sanctuary from which fruits of every kind are collected as a provision from us? indeed, most of them do not know. (57) | | وَقَالُوا إِن نَّتَّبِعِ الْهُدَى مَعَكَ نُتَخَطَّفْ مِنْ أَرْضِنَا أَوَلَمْ نُمَكِّن لَّهُمْ حَرَمًا آمِنًا يُجْبَى إِلَيْهِ ثَمَرَاتُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ رِزْقًا مِن لَّدُنَّا وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿57﴾ |
how many a village have we destroyed that were ungrateful in their life! those are their dwellings, (they are) uninhabited after them except for a little; we are the inheritors. (58) | | وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ بَطِرَتْ مَعِيشَتَهَا فَتِلْكَ مَسَاكِنُهُمْ لَمْ تُسْكَن مِّن بَعْدِهِمْ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا وَكُنَّا نَحْنُ الْوَارِثِينَ ﴿58﴾ |
nor did your lord destroy the villages until he had sent a messenger to its mother village reciting to them our verses. we never destroyed villages unless their inhabitants were harmdoers. (59) | | وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ مُهْلِكَ الْقُرَى حَتَّى يَبْعَثَ فِي أُمِّهَا رَسُولًا يَتْلُو عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتِنَا وَمَا كُنَّا مُهْلِكِي الْقُرَى إِلَّا وَأَهْلُهَا ظَالِمُونَ ﴿59﴾ |
the things you have been given, and its adornments, are but the enjoyment of this present life. what is with allah is better and everlasting. do you not understand? (60) | | وَمَا أُوتِيتُم مِّن شَيْءٍ فَمَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتُهَا وَمَا عِندَ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَى أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ ﴿60﴾ |
is he to whom we promised a fine promise and receives it, like he who has been given the enjoyment of this present life, then on the day of resurrection shall be among those that are arraigned? (61) | | أَفَمَن وَعَدْنَاهُ وَعْدًا حَسَنًا فَهُوَ لَاقِيهِ كَمَن مَّتَّعْنَاهُ مَتَاعَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ثُمَّ هُوَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنَ الْمُحْضَرِينَ ﴿61﴾ |
on that day he will call to them, saying: 'where are those whom you alleged to be my associates? ' (62) | | وَيَوْمَ يُنَادِيهِمْ فَيَقُولُ أَيْنَ شُرَكَائِيَ الَّذِينَ كُنتُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ ﴿62﴾ |
those against whom the word is realized shall say: 'our lord, those whom we led astray, we led them astray even as we ourselves were astray. we are quit of them to you; it was not us that they worshipped. ' (63) | | قَالَ الَّذِينَ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقَوْلُ رَبَّنَا هَؤُلَاء الَّذِينَ أَغْوَيْنَا أَغْوَيْنَاهُمْ كَمَا غَوَيْنَا تَبَرَّأْنَا إِلَيْكَ مَا كَانُوا إِيَّانَا يَعْبُدُونَ ﴿63﴾ |
it will be said to them: 'call on your associates! ' and they will call on them, but they will not respond to them, and they shall see the punishment if only they had been guided. (64) | | وَقِيلَ ادْعُوا شُرَكَاءكُمْ فَدَعَوْهُمْ فَلَمْ يَسْتَجِيبُوا لَهُمْ وَرَأَوُا الْعَذَابَ لَوْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَهْتَدُونَ ﴿64﴾ |
on that day he will call to them and he will say: 'what response did you give our messengers? ' (65) | | وَيَوْمَ يُنَادِيهِمْ فَيَقُولُ مَاذَا أَجَبْتُمُ الْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿65﴾ |
and on that day the news will be blinded for them, and they will not ask each other. (66) | | فَعَمِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَنبَاء يَوْمَئِذٍ فَهُمْ لَا يَتَسَاءلُونَ ﴿66﴾ |
but, as for he who repents and believes, and does good deeds, he will be among those who prosper. (67) | | فَأَمَّا مَن تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَعَسَى أَن يَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُفْلِحِينَ ﴿67﴾ |
your lord creates whosoever he will and he chooses the choice was not theirs (the unbelievers). exalted is allah, above that they associate! (68) | | وَرَبُّكَ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاءُ وَيَخْتَارُ مَا كَانَ لَهُمُ الْخِيَرَةُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَتَعَالَى عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ ﴿68﴾ |
your lord knows what their chests hide and what they reveal. (69) | | وَرَبُّكَ يَعْلَمُ مَا تُكِنُّ صُدُورُهُمْ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ ﴿69﴾ |
and he is allah; there is no god except he. the praise is his in the former as in the latter. his is the judgement, to him you shall be returned. (70) | | وَهُوَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِي الْأُولَى وَالْآخِرَةِ وَلَهُ الْحُكْمُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ ﴿70﴾ |
say: 'think! what if allah should enshroud you in unceasing night till the day of resurrection, what god, other than allah, shall bring you light! will you not hear?' (71) | | قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِن جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمُ اللَّيْلَ سَرْمَدًا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ إِلَهٌ غَيْرُ اللَّهِ يَأْتِيكُم بِضِيَاء أَفَلَا تَسْمَعُونَ ﴿71﴾ |
say: 'what would you think if allah should make the day unceasing over you till the day of resurrection, what god, other than allah, shall bring you the night to sleep in. will you not see? ' (72) | | قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِن جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمُ النَّهَارَ سَرْمَدًا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ إِلَهٌ غَيْرُ اللَّهِ يَأْتِيكُم بِلَيْلٍ تَسْكُنُونَ فِيهِ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ ﴿72﴾ |
in his mercy he has appointed for you the night and the day, so that you can rest in it, and seek his bounty, in order that you will be thankful. ' (73) | | وَمِن رَّحْمَتِهِ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لِتَسْكُنُوا فِيهِ وَلِتَبْتَغُوا مِن فَضْلِهِ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ ﴿73﴾ |
upon that day he will call to them saying: 'now, where are those whom you alleged to be my associates? ' (74) | | وَيَوْمَ يُنَادِيهِمْ فَيَقُولُ أَيْنَ شُرَكَائِيَ الَّذِينَ كُنتُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ ﴿74﴾ |
from every nation we will bring a witness, and we shall say to them: 'produce your proof! ' then they shall know the truth is with allah, and their own fabrications will forsake them. (75) | | وَنَزَعْنَا مِن كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ شَهِيدًا فَقُلْنَا هَاتُوا بُرْهَانَكُمْ فَعَلِمُوا أَنَّ الْحَقَّ لِلَّهِ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا يَفْتَرُونَ ﴿75﴾ |
. korah was one of moses' nation. but he was insolent to them, for we had given him such treasures that their very keys were too heavy a burden for even the strong. his people said to him: 'do not exult; allah does not love the boastful. (76) | | إِنَّ قَارُونَ كَانَ مِن قَوْمِ مُوسَى فَبَغَى عَلَيْهِمْ وَآتَيْنَاهُ مِنَ الْكُنُوزِ مَا إِنَّ مَفَاتِحَهُ لَتَنُوءُ بِالْعُصْبَةِ أُولِي الْقُوَّةِ إِذْ قَالَ لَهُ قَوْمُهُ لَا تَفْرَحْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْفَرِحِينَ ﴿76﴾ |
but seek, in that which allah has given you to attain the everlasting residence. do not forget your share in this world. do good, as allah has been good to you, and do not corrupt in the land, allah does not love those who corrupt. (77) | | وَابْتَغِ فِيمَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ الدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ وَلَا تَنسَ نَصِيبَكَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَأَحْسِن كَمَا أَحْسَنَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْكَ وَلَا تَبْغِ الْفَسَادَ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُفْسِدِينَ ﴿77﴾ |
but he replied: 'what was given me is only because of the knowledge i possess. ' did he not know that from the generations before him allah had destroyed a mightier and more numerous in multitude? the sinners shall not be questioned about their sins. (78) | | قَالَ إِنَّمَا أُوتِيتُهُ عَلَى عِلْمٍ عِندِي أَوَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَهْلَكَ مِن قَبْلِهِ مِنَ القُرُونِ مَنْ هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُ قُوَّةً وَأَكْثَرُ جَمْعًا وَلَا يُسْأَلُ عَن ذُنُوبِهِمُ الْمُجْرِمُونَ ﴿78﴾ |
so he went out in all his finery among his nation, those who desired this life said: 'would that we had the like of that korah has been given! he has indeed a mighty fortune. ' (79) | | فَخَرَجَ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ فِي زِينَتِهِ قَالَ الَّذِينَ يُرِيدُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنيَا يَا لَيْتَ لَنَا مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ قَارُونُ إِنَّهُ لَذُو حَظٍّ عَظِيمٍ ﴿79﴾ |
but those to whom knowledge had been given said: 'alas for you! better is the reward of allah for him who believes and does good works; but none shall receive it except the patient. ' (80) | | وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ وَيْلَكُمْ ثَوَابُ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ لِّمَنْ آمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا وَلَا يُلَقَّاهَا إِلَّا الصَّابِرُونَ ﴿80﴾ |
we caused the earth to swallow him, together with his dwelling, and there was no host to help him, other than allah; and he was not amongst the victorious. (81) | | فَخَسَفْنَا بِهِ وَبِدَارِهِ الْأَرْضَ فَمَا كَانَ لَهُ مِن فِئَةٍ يَنصُرُونَهُ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ المُنتَصِرِينَ ﴿81﴾ |
and in the morning those who had wished to be in his place the previous evening said: 'indeed, allah outspreads to whom he will among his worshipers, and he restrains. had he not shown us favor, he could have caused the earth to swallow us. indeed, the unbelievers shall never prosper. ' (82) | | وَأَصْبَحَ الَّذِينَ تَمَنَّوْا مَكَانَهُ بِالْأَمْسِ يَقُولُونَ وَيْكَأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَن يَشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ وَيَقْدِرُ لَوْلَا أَن مَّنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا لَخَسَفَ بِنَا وَيْكَأَنَّهُ لَا يُفْلِحُ الْكَافِرُونَ ﴿82﴾ |
that is the last abode, we shall assign it to those who desire neither exorbitance in the earth, nor corruption. the outcome is for the cautious. (83) | | تِلْكَ الدَّارُ الْآخِرَةُ نَجْعَلُهَا لِلَّذِينَ لَا يُرِيدُونَ عُلُوًّا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا فَسَادًا وَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ ﴿83﴾ |
whosoever does a good deed shall have better than it. but whosoever does evil deeds, they shall be recompensed for what they were doing. (84) | | مَن جَاء بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ خَيْرٌ مِّنْهَا وَمَن جَاء بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَلَا يُجْزَى الَّذِينَ عَمِلُوا السَّيِّئَاتِ إِلَّا مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ ﴿84﴾ |
he who has obligated the koran will bring you to an appointment. say: 'my lord knows well who comes with guidance, and who is in clear error. ' (85) | | إِنَّ الَّذِي فَرَضَ عَلَيْكَ الْقُرْآنَ لَرَادُّكَ إِلَى مَعَادٍ قُل رَّبِّي أَعْلَمُ مَن جَاء بِالْهُدَى وَمَنْ هُوَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ ﴿85﴾ |
you did not hope that the book would be given to you except as mercy from your lord. so do not be a supporter of the unbelievers. (86) | | وَمَا كُنتَ تَرْجُو أَن يُلْقَى إِلَيْكَ الْكِتَابُ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً مِّن رَّبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ ظَهِيرًا لِّلْكَافِرِينَ ﴿86﴾ |
let no one bar you from the verses of allah after they have been sent down to you, but call to your lord, and do not be amongst the idolaters. (87) | | وَلَا يَصُدُّنَّكَ عَنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ بَعْدَ إِذْ أُنزِلَتْ إِلَيْكَ وَادْعُ إِلَى رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ﴿87﴾ |
and do not call upon another god with allah, there is no god except he. all things perish, except his face, judgement is his, and to him all of you shall return. (88) | | وَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُ لَهُ الْحُكْمُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ ﴿88﴾ |
