Certainly will the believers have succeeded:

Qad aflaha almu/minoon

They who are during their prayer humbly intent

Allatheena hum fee salatihimkhashiAAoon

And they who turn away from ill speech

Wallatheena hum AAani allaghwimuAAridoon

And they who are observant of zakāh

Wallatheena hum lizzakatifaAAiloon

And they who guard their private parts

Wallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoon

Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed -

Illa AAala azwajihim awma malakat aymanuhum fa-innahum ghayru maloomeen

But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors -

Famani ibtagha waraa thalikafaola-ika humu alAAadoon

And they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive

Wallatheena hum li-amanatihimwaAAahdihim raAAoon

And they who carefully maintain their prayers -

Wallatheena hum AAala salawatihimyuhafithoon

Those are the inheritors

Ola-ika humu alwarithoon

Who will inherit al-Firdaus. They will abide therein eternally.

Allatheena yarithoona alfirdawsa humfeeha khalidoon

And certainly did We create man from an extract of clay.

Walaqad khalaqna al-insana minsulalatin min teen

Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging [i.e., the womb].

Thumma jaAAalnahu nutfatan feeqararin makeen

Then We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allāh, the best of creators.

Thumma khalaqna annutfataAAalaqatan fakhalaqna alAAalaqata mudghatanfakhalaqna almudghata AAithamanfakasawna alAAithama lahmanthumma ansha/nahu khalqan akhara fatabarakaAllahu ahsanu alkhaliqeen

Then indeed, after that you are to die.

Thumma innakum baAAda thalikalamayyitoon

Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, will be resurrected.

Thumma innakum yawma alqiyamatitubAAathoon

And We have created above you seven layered heavens, and never have We been of [Our] creation unaware.

Walaqad khalaqna fawqakum sabAAa tara-iqawama kunna AAani alkhalqi ghafileen

And We have sent down rain from the sky in a measured amount and settled it in the earth. And indeed, We are Able to take it away.

Waanzalna mina assama-imaan biqadarin faaskannahu fee al-ardiwa-inna AAala thahabin bihi laqadiroon

And We brought forth for you thereby gardens of palm trees and grapevines in which for you are abundant fruits and from which you eat.

Faansha/na lakum bihi jannatinmin nakheelin waaAAnabin lakum feeha fawakihukatheeratun waminha ta/kuloon

And [We brought forth] a tree issuing from Mount Sinai which produces oil and food [i.e., olives] for those who eat.

Washajaratan takhruju min toori saynaatanbutu bidduhni wasibghin lilakileen

And indeed, for you in livestock is a lesson. We give you drink from that which is in their bellies, and for you in them are numerous benefits, and from them you eat.

Wa-inna lakum fee al-anAAamilaAAibratan nusqeekum mimma fee butoonihawalakum feeha manafiAAu katheeratun waminhata/kuloon

And upon them and on ships you are carried.

WaAAalayha waAAala alfulki tuhmaloon

And We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship Allāh; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"

Walaqad arsalna noohan ilaqawmihi faqala ya qawmi oAAbudoo Allaha malakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoon

But the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a man like yourselves who wishes to take precedence over you; and if Allāh had willed [to send a messenger], He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers.

Faqala almalao allatheenakafaroo min qawmihi ma hatha illa basharunmithlukum yureedu an yatafaddala AAalaykum walaw shaaAllahu laanzala mala-ikatan ma samiAAnabihatha fee aba-ina al-awwaleen

He is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait concerning him for a time."

In huwa illa rajulun bihi jinnatunfatarabbasoo bihi hatta heen

[Noah] said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."

Qala rabbi onsurnee bimakaththaboon

So We inspired to him, "Construct the ship under Our observation and Our inspiration, and when Our command comes and the oven overflows, put into it [i.e., the ship] from each [creature] two mates and your family, except him for whom the decree [of destruction] has proceeded. And do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are to be drowned.

Faawhayna ilayhi ani isnaAAialfulka bi-aAAyunina wawahyina fa-ithajaa amruna wafara attannooru faslukfeeha min kullin zawjayni ithnayni waahlaka illaman sabaqa AAalayhi alqawlu minhum wala tukhatibneefee allatheena thalamoo innahum mughraqoon

And when you have boarded the ship, you and those with you, then say, 'Praise to Allāh who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.'

Fa-itha istawayta anta waman maAAakaAAala alfulki faquli alhamdu lillahi allatheenajjana mina alqawmi aththalimeen

And say, 'My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us].'"

Waqul rabbi anzilnee munzalan mubarakanwaanta khayru almunzileen

Indeed in that are signs, and indeed, We are ever testing [Our servants].

Inna fee thalika laayatinwa-in kunna lamubtaleen

Then We produced after them a generation of others.

Thumma ansha/na min baAAdihim qarnan akhareen

And We sent among them a messenger from themselves, [saying], "Worship Allāh; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"

Faarsalna feehim rasoolan minhum anioAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhuafala tattaqoon

And the eminent among his people who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter while We had given them luxury in the worldly life said, "This is not but a man like yourselves. He eats of that from which you eat and drinks of what you drink.

Waqala almalao min qawmihi allatheenakafaroo wakaththaboo biliqa-i al-akhiratiwaatrafnahum fee alhayati addunyama hatha illa basharun mithlukum ya/kulumimma ta/kuloona minhu wayashrabu mimma tashraboon

And if you should obey a man like yourselves, indeed, you would then be losers.

Wala-in ataAAtum basharan mithlakuminnakum ithan lakhasiroon

Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones that you will be brought forth [once more]?

AyaAAidukum annakum itha mittumwakuntum turaban waAAithaman annakummukhrajoon

How far, how far, is that which you are promised.

Hayhata hayhata limatooAAadoon

It [i.e., life] is not but our worldly life - we die and live, but we will not be resurrected.

In hiya illa hayatunaaddunya namootu wanahya wamanahnu bimabAAootheen

He is not but a man who has invented a lie about Allāh, and we will not believe him."

In huwa illa rajulun iftaraAAala Allahi kathiban wama nahnulahu bimu/mineen

He said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."

Qala rabbi onsurnee bimakaththaboon

[Allāh] said, "After a little, they will surely become regretful."

Qala AAamma qaleelin layusbihunnanadimeen

So the shriek seized them in truth, and We made them as [plant] stubble. Then away with the wrongdoing people.

Faakhathat-humu assayhatubilhaqqi fajaAAalnahum ghuthaanfabuAAdan lilqawmi aththalimeen

Then We produced after them other generations.

Thumma ansha/na min baAAdihimquroonan akhareen

No nation will precede its time [of termination], nor will they remain [thereafter].

Ma tasbiqu min ommatin ajalahawama yasta/khiroon

Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation its messenger, they denied him, so We made them follow one another [to destruction], and We made them narrations. So away with a people who do not believe.

Thumma arsalna rusulana tatrakulla ma jaa ommatan rasooluha kaththaboohufaatbaAAna baAAdahum baAAdan wajaAAalnahumahadeetha fabuAAdan liqawmin la yu/minoon

Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our signs and a clear authority

Thumma arsalna moosa waakhahuharoona bi-ayatina wasultaninmubeen

To Pharaoh and his establishment, but they were arrogant and were a haughty people.

Ila firAAawna wamala-ihi fastakbaroowakanoo qawman AAaleen

They said, "Should we believe two men like ourselves while their people are for us in servitude?"

Faqaloo anu/minu libasharayni mithlinawaqawmuhuma lana AAabidoon

So they denied them and were of those destroyed.

Fakaththaboohuma fakanoomina almuhlakeen

And We certainly gave Moses the Scripture that perhaps they would be guided.

Walaqad atayna moosaalkitaba laAAallahum yahtadoon

And We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign and sheltered them within a high ground having level [areas] and flowing water.

WajaAAalna ibna maryama waommahu ayatanwaawaynahuma ila rabwatin thatiqararin wamaAAeen

[Allāh said], "O messengers, eat from the good foods and work righteousness. Indeed I, of what you do, am Knowing.

Ya ayyuha arrusulukuloo mina attayyibati waAAmaloo salihaninnee bima taAAmaloona AAaleem

And indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me."

Wa-inna hathihi ommatukum ommatan wahidatanwaana rabbukum fattaqoon

But they [i.e., the people] divided their religion among them into portions [i.e., sects] - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing.

FataqattaAAoo amrahum baynahumzuburan kullu hizbin bima ladayhim farihoon

So leave them in their confusion for a time.

Fatharhum fee ghamratihim hattaheen

Do they think that what We extend to them of wealth and children

Ayahsaboona annama numidduhumbihi min malin wabaneen

Is [because] We hasten for them good things? Rather, they do not perceive.

NusariAAu lahum fee alkhayratibal la yashAAuroon

Indeed, they who are apprehensive from fear of their Lord

Inna allatheena hum min khashyatirabbihim mushfiqoon

And they who believe in the signs of their Lord

Wallatheena hum bi-ayatirabbihim yu/minoon

And they who do not associate anything with their Lord

Wallatheena hum birabbihim layushrikoon

And they who give what they give while their hearts are fearful because they will be returning to their Lord -

Wallatheena yu/toona maataw waquloobuhum wajilatun annahum ila rabbihim rajiAAoon

It is those who hasten to good deeds, and they outstrip [others] therein.

Ola-ika yusariAAoona feealkhayrati wahum laha sabiqoon

And We charge no soul except [with that within] its capacity, and with Us is a record which speaks with truth; and they will not be wronged.

Wala nukallifu nafsan illawusAAaha waladayna kitabun yantiqu bilhaqqiwahum la yuthlamoon

But their hearts are covered with confusion over this, and they have [evil] deeds besides that [i.e., disbelief] which they are doing,

Bal quloobuhum fee ghamratin min hathawalahum aAAmalun min dooni thalika hum lahaAAamiloon

Until when We seize their affluent ones with punishment, at once they are crying [to Allāh] for help.

Hatta itha akhathnamutrafeehim bilAAathabi itha hum yaj-aroon

Do not cry out today. Indeed, by Us you will not be helped.

La taj-aroo alyawma innakum minnala tunsaroon

My verses had already been recited to you, but you were turning back on your heels.

Qad kanat ayatee tutlaAAalaykum fakuntum AAala aAAqabikum tankisoon

In arrogance regarding it, conversing by night, speaking evil.

Mustakbireena bihi samiran tahjuroon

Then have they not reflected over the word [i.e., the Qur’ān], or has there come to them that which had not come to their forefathers?

Afalam yaddabbaroo alqawla am jaahumma lam ya/ti abaahumu al-awwaleen

Or did they not know their Messenger, so they are toward him disacknowledging?

Am lam yaAArifoo rasoolahum fahum lahumunkiroon

Or do they say, "In him is madness"? Rather, he brought them the truth, but most of them, to the truth, are averse.

Am yaqooloona bihi jinnatun bal jaahumbilhaqqi waaktharuhum lilhaqqi karihoon

But if the Truth [i.e., Allāh] had followed their inclinations, the heavens and the earth and whoever is in them would have been ruined. Rather, We have brought them their message, but they, from their message, are turning away.

Walawi ittabaAAa alhaqqu ahwaahumlafasadati assamawatu wal-arduwaman feehinna bal ataynahum bithikrihim fahum AAanthikrihim muAAridoon

Or do you, [O Muḥammad], ask them for payment? But the reward of your Lord is best, and He is the best of providers.

Am tas-aluhum kharjan fakharajurabbika khayrun wahuwa khayru arraziqeen

And indeed, you invite them to a straight path.

Wa-innaka latadAAoohum ila siratinmustaqeem

But indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter are deviating from the path.

Wa-inna allatheena layu/minoona bil-akhirati AAani assiratilanakiboon

And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.

Walaw rahimnahum wakashafnama bihim min durrin lalajjoo fee tughyanihimyaAAmahoon

And We had gripped them with suffering [as a warning], but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, [and will continue thus]

Walaqad akhathnahum bilAAathabifama istakanoo lirabbihim wama yatadarraAAoon

Until when We have opened before them a door of severe punishment, immediately they will be therein in despair.

Hatta itha fatahnaAAalayhim baban tha AAathabin shadeedin ithahum feehi mublisoon

And it is He who produced for you hearing and vision and hearts [i.e., intellect]; little are you grateful.

Wahuwa allathee anshaa lakumu assamAAawal-absara wal-af-idata qaleelan matashkuroon

And it is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered.

Wahuwa allathee tharaakum feeal-ardi wa-ilayhi tuhsharoon

And it is He who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of the night and the day. Then will you not reason?

Wahuwa allathee yuhyeewayumeetu walahu ikhtilafu allayli wannahariafala taAAqiloon

Rather, they say like what the former peoples said.

Bal qaloo mithla ma qalaal-awwaloon

They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

Qaloo a-itha mitnawakunna turaban waAAithamana-inna lamabAAoothoon

We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples."

Laqad wuAAidna nahnu waabaonahatha min qablu in hatha illa asateerual-awwaleen

Say, [O Muḥammad], "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know?"

Qul limani al-ardu waman feehain kuntum taAAlamoon

They will say, "To Allāh." Say, "Then will you not remember?"

Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afalatathakkaroon

Say, "Who is Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Great Throne?"

Qul man rabbu assamawatiassabAAi warabbu alAAarshi alAAatheem

They will say, "[They belong] to Allāh." Say, "Then will you not fear Him?"

Sayaqooloona lillahi qul afalatattaqoon

Say, "In whose hand is the realm of all things - and He protects while none can protect against Him - if you should know?"

Qul man biyadihi malakootu kulli shay-inwahuwa yujeeru wala yujaru AAalayhi in kuntumtaAAlamoon

They will say, "[All belongs] to Allāh." Say, "Then how are you deluded?"

Sayaqooloona lillahi qul faannatusharoon

Rather, We have brought them the truth, and indeed they are liars.

Bal ataynahum bilhaqqiwa-innahum lakathiboon

Allāh has not taken any son, nor has there ever been with Him any deity. [If there had been], then each deity would have taken what it created, and some of them would have [sought to] overcome others. Exalted is Allāh above what they describe [concerning Him].

Ma ittakhatha Allahumin waladin wama kana maAAahu min ilahin ithanlathahaba kullu ilahin bima khalaqa walaAAalabaAAduhum AAala baAAdin subhana AllahiAAamma yasifoon

[He is] Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, so high is He above what they associate [with Him].

AAalimi alghaybi washshahadatifataAAala AAamma yushrikoon

Say, [O Muḥammad], "My Lord, if You should show me that which they are promised,

Qul rabbi imma turiyannee mayooAAadoon

My Lord, then do not place me among the wrongdoing people."

Rabbi fala tajAAalnee fee alqawmi aththalimeen

And indeed, We are Able to show you what We have promised them.

Wa-inna AAala an nuriyaka manaAAiduhum laqadiroon

Repel, by [means of] what is best, [their] evil. We are most knowing of what they describe.

IdfaAA billatee hiya ahsanu assayyi-atanahnu aAAlamu bima yasifoon

And say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils,

Waqul rabbi aAAoothu bika min hamazatiashshayateen

And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me."

WaaAAoothu bika rabbi an yahduroon

[For such is the state of the disbelievers] until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back

Hatta itha jaa ahadahumualmawtu qala rabbi irjiAAoon

That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected.

LaAAallee aAAmalu salihanfeema taraktu kalla innaha kalimatun huwa qa-iluhawamin wara-ihim barzakhun ila yawmi yubAAathoon

So when the Horn is blown, no relationship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask about one another.

Fa-itha nufikha fee assoorifala ansaba baynahum yawma-ithin walayatasaaloon

And those whose scales are heavy [with good deeds] - it is they who are the successful.

Faman thaqulat mawazeenuhu faola-ikahumu almuflihoon

But those whose scales are light - those are the ones who have lost their souls, [being] in Hell, abiding eternally.

Waman khaffat mawazeenuhu faola-ikaallatheena khasiroo anfusahum fee jahannama khalidoon

The Fire will sear their faces, and they therein will have taut smiles.

Talfahu wujoohahumu annaruwahum feeha kalihoon

[It will be said], "Were not My verses recited to you and you used to deny them?"

Alam takun ayatee tutlaAAalaykum fakuntum biha tukaththiboon

They will say, "Our Lord, our wretchedness overcame us, and we were a people astray.

Qaloo rabbana ghalabatAAalayna shiqwatuna wakunna qawman dalleen

Our Lord, remove us from it, and if we were to return [to evil], we would indeed be wrongdoers."

Rabbana akhrijna minhafa-in AAudna fa-inna thalimoon

He will say, "Remain despised therein and do not speak to Me.

Qala ikhsaoo feeha walatukallimoon

Indeed, there was a party of My servants who said, 'Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and You are the best of the merciful.'

Innahu kana fareequn min AAibadeeyaqooloona rabbana amanna faghfirlana warhamna waanta khayru arrahimeen

But you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My remembrance, and you used to laugh at them.

Fattakhathtumoohumsikhriyyan hatta ansawkum thikree wakuntumminhum tadhakoon

Indeed, I have rewarded them this Day for their patient endurance - that they are the attainers [of success]."

Innee jazaytuhumu alyawma bima sabarooannahum humu alfa-izoon

[Allāh] will say, "How long did you remain on earth in number of years?"

Qala kam labithtum fee al-ardiAAadada sineen

They will say, "We remained a day or part of a day; ask those who enumerate."

Qaloo labithna yawman aw baAAdayawmin fas-ali alAAaddeen

He will say, "You stayed not but a little - if only you had known.

Qala in labithtum illaqaleelan law annakum kuntum taAAlamoon

Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?"

Afahasibtum annama khalaqnakumAAabathan waannakum ilayna la turjaAAoon

So exalted is Allāh, the Sovereign, the Truth; there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne.

FataAAala Allahualmaliku alhaqqu la ilaha illa huwarabbu alAAarshi alkareem

And whoever invokes besides Allāh another deity for which he has no proof - then his account is only with his Lord. Indeed, the disbelievers will not succeed.

Waman yadAAu maAAa Allahi ilahanakhara la burhana lahu bihi fa-innamahisabuhu AAinda rabbihi innahu la yuflihualkafiroon

And, [O Muḥammad], say, "My Lord, forgive and have mercy, and You are the best of the merciful."

Waqul rabbi ighfir warhamwaanta khayru arrahimeen
