بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
وَٱلذَّٰرِيَـٰتِ ذَرْوًا ۝١
1

By the [winds] scattering [dust], dispersing [it]

Waththariyati tharwa

فَٱلْحَـٰمِلَـٰتِ وِقْرًا ۝٢
2

And the [clouds] carrying a load [of water]

Falhamilati wiqra

فَٱلْجَـٰرِيَـٰتِ يُسْرًا ۝٣
3

And the ships sailing with ease

Faljariyati yusra

فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَـٰتِ أَمْرًا ۝٤
4

And the [angels] apportioning [each] matter,

Falmuqassimati amra

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌ ۝٥
5

Indeed, what you are promised is true.

Innama tooAAadoona lasadiq

وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌ ۝٦
6

And indeed, the recompense is to occur.

Wa-inna addeena lawaqiAA

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ ۝٧
7

By the heaven containing pathways,

Wassama-i thati alhubuk

إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍ مُّخْتَلِفٍ ۝٨
8

Indeed, you are in differing speech.

Innakum lafee qawlin mukhtalif

يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ ۝٩
9

Deluded away from it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is he who is deluded.

Yu/faku AAanhu man ofik

قُتِلَ ٱلْخَرَّٰصُونَ ۝١٠
10

Destroyed are the misinformers

Qutila alkharrasoon

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍ سَاهُونَ ۝١١
11

Who are within a flood [of confusion] and heedless.

Allatheena hum fee ghamratin sahoon

يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ۝١٢
12

They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?"

Yas-aloona ayyana yawmu addeen

يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ ۝١٣
13

[It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire.

Yawma hum AAala annariyuftanoon

ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ ۝١٤
14

[And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient."

Thooqoo fitnatakum hatha allatheekuntum bihi tastaAAjiloon

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّـٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ ۝١٥
15

Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs,

Inna almuttaqeena fee jannatinwaAAuyoon

ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ ۝١٦
16

Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good.

Akhitheena ma atahumrabbuhum innahum kanoo qabla thalika muhsineen

كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ ۝١٧
17

They used to sleep but little of the night,

Kanoo qaleelan mina allayli mayahjaAAoon

وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ ۝١٨
18

And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,

Wabil-ashari humyastaghfiroon

وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ ۝١٩
19

And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived.

Wafee amwalihim haqqun lissa-iliwalmahroom

وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَـٰتٌ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ ۝٢٠
20

And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]

Wafee al-ardi ayatunlilmooqineen

وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ ۝٢١
21

And in yourselves. Then will you not see?

Wafee anfusikum afala tubsiroon

وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ ۝٢٢
22

And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.

Wafee assama-i rizqukum wamatooAAadoon

فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ ۝٢٣
23

Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking.

Fawarabbi assama-i wal-ardiinnahu lahaqqun mithla ma annakum tantiqoon

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ ۝٢٤
24

Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham? -

Hal ataka hadeethu dayfiibraheema almukrameen

إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَـٰمًا ۖ قَالَ سَلَـٰمٌ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ ۝٢٥
25

When they entered upon him and said, "[We greet you with] peace." He answered, "[And upon you] peace; [you are] a people unknown."

Ith dakhaloo AAalayhi faqaloosalaman qala salamun qawmun munkaroon

فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍ سَمِينٍ ۝٢٦
26

Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf.

Faragha ila ahlihi fajaabiAAijlin sameen

فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ ۝٢٧
27

And placed it near them; he said, "Will you not eat?"

Faqarrabahu ilayhim qala alata/kuloon

فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةً ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَـٰمٍ عَلِيمٍ ۝٢٨
28

And he felt from them apprehension. They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.

Faawjasa minhum kheefatan qaloo latakhaf wabashsharoohu bighulamin AAaleem

فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌ ۝٢٩
29

And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, "[I am] a barren old woman!"

Faaqbalati imraatuhu fee sarratin fasakkatwajhaha waqalat AAajoozun AAaqeem

قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ۝٣٠
30

They said, "Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing."

Qaloo kathaliki qalarabbuki innahu huwa alhakeemu alAAaleem

۞ قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ ۝٣١
31

[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"

Qala fama khatbukumayyuha almursaloon

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ ۝٣٢
32

They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals

Qaloo inna orsilna ilaqawmin mujrimeen

لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن طِينٍ ۝٣٣
33

To send down upon them stones of clay,

Linursila AAalayhim hijaratanmin teen

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ ۝٣٤
34

Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors."

Musawwamatan AAinda rabbika lilmusrifeen

فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۝٣٥
35

So We brought out whoever was in them [i.e., the cities] of the believers.

Faakhrajna man kana feehamina almu/mineen

فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ ۝٣٦
36

And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims.

Fama wajadna feehaghayra baytin mina almuslimeen

وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةً لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ ۝٣٧
37

And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment.

Watarakna feeha ayatanlillatheena yakhafoona alAAathaba al-aleem

وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَـٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَـٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ ۝٣٨
38

And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.

Wafee moosa ith arsanahuila firAAawna bisultanin mubeen

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَـٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ۝٣٩
39

But he turned away with his supporters and said, "A magician or a madman."

Fatawalla biruknihi waqala sahirunaw majnoon

فَأَخَذْنَـٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَـٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ ۝٤٠
40

So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.

Faakhathnahu wajunoodahufanabathnahum fee alyammi wahuwa muleem

وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ ۝٤١
41

And in ʿAad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind.

Wafee AAadin ith arsalnaAAalayhimu arreeha alAAaqeem

مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ ۝٤٢
42

It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins.

Ma tatharu min shay-in atatAAalayhi illa jaAAalat-hu karrameem

وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ ۝٤٣
43

And in Thamūd, when it was said to them, "Enjoy yourselves for a time."

Wafee thamooda ith qeela lahumtamattaAAoo hatta heen

فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّـٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ ۝٤٤
44

But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.

FaAAataw AAan amri rabbihim faakhathat-humuassaAAiqatu wahum yanthuroon

فَمَا ٱسْتَطَـٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ ۝٤٥
45

And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves.

Fama istataAAoo min qiyaminwama kanoo muntasireen

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا فَـٰسِقِينَ ۝٤٦
46

And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient.

Waqawma noohin min qablu innahum kanooqawman fasiqeen

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَـٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ ۝٤٧
47

And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.

Wassamaa banaynahabi-aydin wa-inna lamoosiAAoon

وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَـٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَـٰهِدُونَ ۝٤٨
48

And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.

Wal-arda farashnahafaniAAma almahidoon

وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٤٩
49

And of all things We created two mates [i.e., counterparts]; perhaps you will remember.

Wamin kulli shay-in khalaqna zawjaynilaAAallakum tathakkaroon

فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ ۝٥٠
50

So flee to Allāh. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

Fafirroo ila Allahi inneelakum minhu natheerun mubeen

وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ ۝٥١
51

And do not make [as equal] with Allāh another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

Wala tajAAaloo maAAa Allahi ilahanakhara innee lakum minhu natheerun mubeen

كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ۝٥٢
52

Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, "A magician or a madman."

Kathalika ma ata allatheenamin qablihim min rasoolin illa qaloo sahirunaw majnoon

أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ ۝٥٣
53

Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people.

Atawasaw bihi bal hum qawmun taghoon

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ ۝٥٤
54

So leave them, [O Muḥammad], for you are not to be blamed.

Fatawalla AAanhum fama anta bimaloom

وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۝٥٥
55

And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.

Wathakkir fa-inna aththikratanfaAAu almu/mineen

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ ۝٥٦
56

And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.

Wama khalaqtu aljinna wal-insailla liyaAAbudoon

مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ ۝٥٧
57

I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me.

Ma oreedu minhum min rizqin wamaoreedu an yutAAimoon

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ ۝٥٨
58

Indeed, it is Allāh who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength.

Inna Allaha huwa arrazzaquthoo alquwwati almateen

فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَـٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ ۝٥٩
59

And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their companions [i.e., predecessors], so let them not impatiently urge Me.

Fa-inna lillatheena thalamoothanooban mithla thanoobi as-habihimfala yastaAAjiloon

فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ ۝٦٠
60

And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised.

Fawaylun lillatheena kafaroo minyawmihimu allathee yooAAadoon
