When your sister walked by and said (to Pharaoh’s family), 'Shall I show you someone who can nurse him?' We returned you to your mother so her heart would be comforted and she would not grieve.

(He is) the One who made the earth a resting place for you, traced paths upon it for you, and sent down water from the sky.' With it, We brought forth various kinds of plants.

fa tawallā fir‘aunu fa jama‘a kaidahū ṡumma atā.

So Pharaoh withdrew, devised his plan, and then returned.

qāla lahum mūsā wailakum lā taftarū ‘alallāhi każiban fa yusḥitakum bi‘ażab(in), wa qad khāba maniftarā.

Moses said to them (the magicians), 'Woe to you! Do not invent a lie against Allah, lest He destroy you with punishment.' Indeed, those who invent lies will fail.

فَتَنَازَعُوْٓا اَمْرَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ وَاَسَرُّوا النَّجْوٰى

fa tanāza‘ū amrahum bainahum wa asarrun-najwā.

They disputed among themselves about their affair and kept their conversation secret.

قَالُوْٓا اِنْ هٰذٰنِ لَسَاحِرٰنِ يُرِيْدَانِ اَنْ يُّخْرِجٰكُمْ مِّنْ اَرْضِكُمْ بِسِحْرِهِمَا وَيَذْهَبَا بِطَرِيْقَتِكُمُ الْمُثْلٰى

qālū in hāżāni lasāḥirāni yurīdāni ay yukhrijākum min arḍikum bisiḥrihimā wa yażhabā biṭarīqatikumul-muṡlā.

They said, 'These two are magicians who want to drive you out of your land with their magic and abolish your exemplary traditions.

فَاَجْمِعُوْا كَيْدَكُمْ ثُمَّ ائْتُوْا صَفًّاۚ وَقَدْ اَفْلَحَ الْيَوْمَ مَنِ اسْتَعْلٰى

fa ajmi‘ū kaidakum ṡumma'tū ṣaffā(n), wa qad aflaḥal-yauma manista‘lā.

So gather your plans and come in ranks. Whoever prevails today will succeed.'

قَالُوْا يٰمُوْسٰٓى اِمَّآ اَنْ تُلْقِيَ وَاِمَّآ اَنْ نَّكُوْنَ اَوَّلَ مَنْ اَلْقٰى

qālū yā mūsā immā an tulqiya wa immā an nakūna awwala man alqā.

They said, 'O Moses, will you throw first, or shall we throw?'

قَالَ بَلْ اَلْقُوْاۚ فَاِذَا حِبَالُهُمْ وَعِصِيُّهُمْ يُخَيَّلُ اِلَيْهِ مِنْ سِحْرِهِمْ اَنَّهَا تَسْعٰى

qāla bal alqū, fa iżā ḥibāluhum wa ‘iṣiyyuhum yukhayyalu ilaihi min siḥrihim annahā tas‘ā.

He said, 'You throw.' Suddenly, their ropes and staffs seemed to him to slither like snakes because of their magic.

فَاَوْجَسَ فِيْ نَفْسِهٖ خِيْفَةً مُّوْسٰى

fa aujasa fī nafsihī khīfatam mūsā.

So Moses felt fear in his heart.

قُلْنَا لَا تَخَفْ اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ الْاَعْلٰى

qulnā lā takhaf innaka antal-a‘lā.

We said, 'Do not fear! You will surely prevail.

وَاَلْقِ مَا فِيْ يَمِيْنِكَ تَلْقَفْ مَا صَنَعُوْاۗ اِنَّمَا صَنَعُوْا كَيْدُ سٰحِرٍۗ وَلَا يُفْلِحُ السَّاحِرُ حَيْثُ اَتٰى

wa alqi mā fī yamīnika talqaf mā ṣana‘ū, innamā ṣana‘ū kaidu sāḥir(in), wa lā yufliḥus-sāḥiru ḥaiṡu atā.

Throw what is in your right hand; it will swallow what they have crafted. What they have crafted is only a magician’s trick, and a magician will not succeed, no matter where he comes from.'

فَاُلْقِيَ السَّحَرَةُ سُجَّدًا قَالُوْٓا اٰمَنَّا بِرَبِّ هٰرُوْنَ وَمُوْسٰى

fa ulqiyas-saḥaratu sujjadan qālū āmannā birabbi hārūna wa mūsā.

Then the magicians fell down in prostration, saying, 'We believe in the Lord of Aaron and Moses.'

قَالَ اٰمَنْتُمْ لَهٗ قَبْلَ اَنْ اٰذَنَ لَكُمْۗ اِنَّهٗ لَكَبِيْرُكُمُ الَّذِيْ عَلَّمَكُمُ السِّحْرَۚ فَلَاُقَطِّعَنَّ اَيْدِيَكُمْ وَاَرْجُلَكُمْ مِّنْ خِلَافٍ وَّلَاُصَلِّبَنَّكُمْ فِيْ جُذُوْعِ النَّخْلِۖ وَلَتَعْلَمُنَّ اَيُّنَآ اَشَدُّ عَذَابًا وَّاَبْقٰى

He (Pharaoh) said, 'You believed in him before I permitted you? He must be your leader who taught you magic. I will surely cut off your hands and feet on opposite sides and crucify you on the trunks of palm trees, and you will know whose punishment is more severe and lasting.'

قَالُوْا لَنْ نُّؤْثِرَكَ عَلٰى مَا جَاۤءَنَا مِنَ الْبَيِّنٰتِ وَالَّذِيْ فَطَرَنَا فَاقْضِ مَآ اَنْتَ قَاضٍۗ اِنَّمَا تَقْضِيْ هٰذِهِ الْحَيٰوةَ الدُّنْيَا ۗ

They said, 'We will never prefer you over the clear signs that have come to us, nor over the One who created us. So decree what you will; you can only decree for this worldly life.

اِنَّآ اٰمَنَّا بِرَبِّنَا لِيَغْفِرَ لَنَا خَطٰيٰنَا وَمَآ اَكْرَهْتَنَا عَلَيْهِ مِنَ السِّحْرِۗ وَاللّٰهُ خَيْرٌ وَّاَبْقٰى

innā āmannā birabbinā liyagfira lanā khaṭāyānā wa mā akrahtanā ‘alaihi minas-siḥr(i), wallāhu khairuw wa abqā.

Indeed, we have believed in our Lord that He may forgive us our sins and the magic you forced us to perform. Allah is better and more enduring.'

اِنَّهٗ مَنْ يَّأْتِ رَبَّهٗ مُجْرِمًا فَاِنَّ لَهٗ جَهَنَّمَ ۗ لَا يَمُوْتُ فِيْهَا وَلَا يَحْيٰى

innahū may ya'ti rabbahū mujriman fa inna lahū jahannam(a), lā yamūtu fīhā wa lā yaḥyā.

Indeed, whoever comes to his Lord as a sinner—for him is Hell, where he neither dies nor lives.

وَمَنْ يَّأْتِهٖ مُؤْمِنًا قَدْ عَمِلَ الصّٰلِحٰتِ فَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمُ الدَّرَجٰتُ الْعُلٰى ۙ

wa may ya'tihī mu'minan qad ‘amilaṣ-ṣāliḥāti fa ulā'ika lahumud-darajātul-‘ulā.

But whoever comes to Him as a believer, having done righteous deeds—for them are the highest ranks,

جَنّٰتُ عَدْنٍ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهَا ۗوَذٰلِكَ جَزَاۤءُ مَنْ تَزَكّٰى ࣖ

jannātu ‘adnin tajrī min taḥtihal-anhāru khālidīna fīhā, wa żālika jazā'u man tazakkā.

Gardens of Eden with rivers flowing beneath, where they will abide forever. That is the reward for those who purify themselves.

وَلَقَدْ اَوْحَيْنَآ اِلٰى مُوْسٰٓى اَنْ اَسْرِ بِعِبَادِيْ فَاضْرِبْ لَهُمْ طَرِيْقًا فِى الْبَحْرِ يَبَسًاۙ لَّا تَخٰفُ دَرَكًا وَّلَا تَخْشٰى

wa laqad auḥainā ilā mūsā an asri bi‘ibādī faḍrib lahum ṭarīqan fil-baḥri yabasā(n), lā takhāfu darakaw wa lā takhsyā.

And We revealed to Moses, 'Travel by night with My servants and strike for them a dry path through the sea. Do not fear being overtaken, nor be afraid.'

فَاَتْبَعَهُمْ فِرْعَوْنُ بِجُنُوْدِهٖ فَغَشِيَهُمْ مِّنَ الْيَمِّ مَا غَشِيَهُمْ ۗ

fa atba‘ahum fir‘aunu bijunūdihī fa gasyiyahum minal-yammi mā gasyiyahum.

Then Pharaoh pursued them with his forces, but the sea overwhelmed and engulfed them.

وَاَضَلَّ فِرْعَوْنُ قَوْمَهٗ وَمَا هَدٰى

wa aḍalla fir‘aunu qaumahū wa mā hadā.

And Pharaoh led his people astray and did not guide them.

يٰبَنِيْٓ اِسْرَاۤءِيْلَ قَدْ اَنْجَيْنٰكُمْ مِّنْ عَدُوِّكُمْ وَوٰعَدْنٰكُمْ جَانِبَ الطُّوْرِ الْاَيْمَنَ وَنَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَنَّ وَالسَّلْوٰى

yā banī isrā'īla qad anjainākum min ‘aduwwikum wa wā‘adnākum jānibaṭ-ṭūril-aimana wa nazzalnā ‘alaikumul-mannā was-salwā.

O Children of Israel! We saved you from your enemy, made a covenant with you on the right side of the Mount, and sent down to you manna and quails.

كُلُوْا مِنْ طَيِّبٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنٰكُمْۙ وَلَا تَطْغَوْا فِيْهِ فَيَحِلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ غَضَبِيْۚ وَمَنْ يَّحْلِلْ عَلَيْهِ غَضَبِيْ فَقَدْ هَوٰى

kulū min ṭayyibāti mā razaqnākum, wa lā taṭgau fīhi fa yaḥilla ‘alaikum gaḍabī, wa may yaḥlil ‘alaihi gaḍabī faqad hawā.

Eat of the good things We have provided for you, and do not transgress, lest My wrath descend upon you. Whoever incurs My wrath is indeed ruined.

وَاِنِّيْ لَغَفَّارٌ لِّمَنْ تَابَ وَاٰمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا ثُمَّ اهْتَدٰى

wa innī lagaffārul liman tāba wa āmana wa ‘amila ṣāliḥan ṡummahtadā.

But indeed, I am Most Forgiving to those who repent, believe, do righteous deeds, and then remain guided.

۞ وَمَآ اَعْجَلَكَ عَنْ قَوْمِكَ يٰمُوْسٰى

wa mā a‘jalaka ‘an qaumika yā mūsā.

'Why have you hastened ahead of your people, O Moses?'

قَالَ هُمْ اُولَاۤءِ عَلٰٓى اَثَرِيْ وَعَجِلْتُ اِلَيْكَ رَبِّ لِتَرْضٰى

qāla hum ulā'i ‘alā aṡarī wa ‘ajiltu ilaika rabbi litarḍā.

He said, 'They are following in my footsteps, and I hastened to You, my Lord, that You may be pleased.'

قَالَ فَاِنَّا قَدْ فَتَنَّا قَوْمَكَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِكَ وَاَضَلَّهُمُ السَّامِرِيُّ

qāla fa innā qad fatannā qaumaka mim ba‘dika wa aḍallahumus-sāmiriyy(u).

He (Allah) said, 'We have tested your people after you left, and the Samiri has led them astray.'

فَرَجَعَ مُوْسٰٓى اِلٰى قَوْمِهٖ غَضْبَانَ اَسِفًا ەۚ قَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اَلَمْ يَعِدْكُمْ رَبُّكُمْ وَعْدًا حَسَنًا ەۗ اَفَطَالَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْعَهْدُ اَمْ اَرَدْتُّمْ اَنْ يَّحِلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ غَضَبٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ فَاَخْلَفْتُمْ مَّوْعِدِيْ

So Moses returned to his people, angry and grieved. He said, 'O my people! Did your Lord not promise you a good promise? Was the time too long for you, or did you wish for your Lord’s wrath to descend upon you, that you broke your promise to me?'

قَالُوْا مَآ اَخْلَفْنَا مَوْعِدَكَ بِمَلْكِنَا وَلٰكِنَّا حُمِّلْنَآ اَوْزَارًا مِّنْ زِيْنَةِ الْقَوْمِ فَقَذَفْنٰهَا فَكَذٰلِكَ اَلْقَى السَّامِرِيُّ ۙ

qālū mā akhlafnā mau‘idaka bimalkinā wa lākinnā ḥummilnā auzāram min zīnatil-qaumi fa qażafnāhā fa każālika alqas-sāmiriyy(u).

They said, 'We did not break our promise to you willingly, but we were made to carry burdens of the people’s ornaments, so we threw them (into the fire), and so did the Samiri.'

فَاَخْرَجَ لَهُمْ عِجْلًا جَسَدًا لَّهٗ خُوَارٌ فَقَالُوْا هٰذَآ اِلٰهُكُمْ وَاِلٰهُ مُوْسٰى ەۙ فَنَسِيَ ۗ

fa akhraja lahum ‘ijlan jasadal lahū khuwārun fa qālū hāżā ilāhukum wa ilāhu mūsā, fa nasiy(a).

Then he (the Samiri) produced for them a calf with a body and a lowing sound, and they said, 'This is your god and the god of Moses, but he forgot.'

اَفَلَا يَرَوْنَ اَلَّا يَرْجِعُ اِلَيْهِمْ قَوْلًا ەۙ وَّلَا يَمْلِكُ لَهُمْ ضَرًّا وَّلَا نَفْعًا ࣖ

afalā yarauna allā yarji‘u ilaihim qaulā(n), wa lā yamliku lahum ḍarraw wa lā naf‘ā(n).

Did they not see that it could not answer them or have power to harm or benefit them?

وَلَقَدْ قَالَ لَهُمْ هٰرُوْنُ مِنْ قَبْلُ يٰقَوْمِ اِنَّمَا فُتِنْتُمْ بِهٖۚ وَاِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ الرَّحْمٰنُ فَاتَّبِعُوْنِيْ وَاَطِيْعُوْٓا اَمْرِيْ

wa laqad qāla lahum hārūnu min qablu yā qaumi innamā futintum bih(ī), wa inna rabbakumur-raḥmānu fattabi‘ūnī wa aṭī‘ū amrī.

Aaron had already said to them, 'O my people! You are only being tested by it. Your Lord is the Most Merciful, so follow me and obey my command.'

قَالُوْا لَنْ نَّبْرَحَ عَلَيْهِ عٰكِفِيْنَ حَتّٰى يَرْجِعَ اِلَيْنَا مُوْسٰى

qālū lan nabraḥa ‘alaihi ‘ākifīna ḥattā yarji‘a ilainā mūsā.

They said, 'We will not cease worshiping it until Moses returns to us.'

قَالَ يٰهٰرُوْنُ مَا مَنَعَكَ اِذْ رَاَيْتَهُمْ ضَلُّوْٓا ۙ

qāla yā hārūnu mā mana‘aka iż ra'aitahum ḍallū.

He (Moses) said, 'O Aaron! What prevented you, when you saw them going astray,

اَلَّا تَتَّبِعَنِۗ اَفَعَصَيْتَ اَمْرِيْ

allā tattabi‘an(i), afa ‘aṣaita amrī.

from following me? Have you disobeyed my command?'

قَالَ يَبْنَؤُمَّ لَا تَأْخُذْ بِلِحْيَتِيْ وَلَا بِرَأْسِيْۚ اِنِّيْ خَشِيْتُ اَنْ تَقُوْلَ فَرَّقْتَ بَيْنَ بَنِيْٓ اِسْرَاۤءِيْلَ وَلَمْ تَرْقُبْ قَوْلِيْ

qāla yabna'umma lā ta'khuż biliḥyatī wa lā bira'sī, innī khasyītu an taqūla farraqta baina banī isrā'īla wa lam tarqub qaulī.

He (Aaron) said, 'O son of my mother! Do not seize my beard or my head. I feared you would say, “You have caused division among the Children of Israel and did not observe my instruction.”'

قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكَ يٰسَامِرِيُّ

qāla famā khaṭbuka yā sāmiriyy(u).

He (Moses) said, 'What is your story, O Samiri?'

قَالَ بَصُرْتُ بِمَا لَمْ يَبْصُرُوْا بِهٖ فَقَبَضْتُ قَبْضَةً مِّنْ اَثَرِ الرَّسُوْلِ فَنَبَذْتُهَا وَكَذٰلِكَ سَوَّلَتْ لِيْ نَفْسِيْ

qāla baṣurtu bimā lam yabṣurū bihī fa qabaḍtu qabḍatam min aṡarir-rasūli fa nabażtuhā wa każālika sawwalat lī nafsī.

He said, 'I saw what they did not see, so I took a handful (of dust) from the messenger’s track and threw it in. Thus, my soul prompted me.'

قَالَ فَاذْهَبْ فَاِنَّ لَكَ فِى الْحَيٰوةِ اَنْ تَقُوْلَ لَا مِسَاسَۖ وَاِنَّ لَكَ مَوْعِدًا لَّنْ تُخْلَفَهٗۚ وَانْظُرْ اِلٰٓى اِلٰهِكَ الَّذِيْ ظَلْتَ عَلَيْهِ عَاكِفًا ۗ لَنُحَرِّقَنَّهٗ ثُمَّ لَنَنْسِفَنَّهٗ فِى الْيَمِّ نَسْفًا

He (Moses) said, 'Begone! In this life, you will say, “Do not touch me,” and you have a promise (of punishment) you cannot escape. Look at your god, which you kept worshiping. We will burn it and scatter its ashes into the sea.'

اِنَّمَآ اِلٰهُكُمُ اللّٰهُ الَّذِيْ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۗ وَسِعَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا

innamā ilāhukumullāhul-lażī lā ilāha illā huw(a), wasi‘a kulla syai'in ‘ilmā(n).

Your God is only Allah, there is no god but He. His knowledge encompasses everything.

كَذٰلِكَ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ اَنْۢبَاۤءِ مَا قَدْ سَبَقَۚ وَقَدْ اٰتَيْنٰكَ مِنْ لَّدُنَّا ذِكْرًا ۚ

każālika naquṣṣu ‘alaika min ambā'i mā sabaq(a), wa qad ātaināka mil ladunnā żikrā(n).

Thus, We relate to you (Muhammad) some stories of what has passed, and We have given you a reminder (the Qur’an) from Us.

مَنْ اَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَاِنَّهٗ يَحْمِلُ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ وِزْرًا

man a‘raḍa ‘anhu fa innahū yaḥmilu yaumal-qiyāmati wizrā(n).

Whoever turns away from it will bear a heavy burden (of sin) on the Day of Resurrection,

خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهِ ۗوَسَاۤءَ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ حِمْلًاۙ

khālidīna fīh(i), wa sā'a lahum yaumal-qiyāmati ḥimlā(n).

abiding in it forever. What a terrible burden for them on the Day of Resurrection,

يَّوْمَ يُنْفَخُ فِى الصُّوْرِ وَنَحْشُرُ الْمُجْرِمِيْنَ يَوْمَىِٕذٍ زُرْقًا ۖ

yauma yunfakhu fiṣ-ṣūri wa naḥsyurul-mujrimīna yauma'iżin zurqā(n).

the Day the trumpet is blown (the second time), and We gather the sinners, their eyes dim with gloom,

يَّتَخَافَتُوْنَ بَيْنَهُمْ اِنْ لَّبِثْتُمْ اِلَّا عَشْرًا

yatakhāfatūna bainahum il labiṡtum illā ‘asyrā(n).

whispering to one another, 'You stayed (in the world) no more than ten (days).'

نَحْنُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَقُوْلُوْنَ اِذْ يَقُوْلُ اَمْثَلُهُمْ طَرِيْقَةً اِنْ لَّبِثْتُمْ اِلَّا يَوْمًا ࣖ

naḥnu a‘lamu bimā yaqūlūna iż yaqūlu amṡaluhum ṭarīqatan il labiṡtum illā yaumā(n).

We know best what they will say, when the most upright among them says, 'You stayed no more than a day.'

وَيَسْـَٔلُوْنَكَ عَنِ الْجِبَالِ فَقُلْ يَنْسِفُهَا رَبِّيْ نَسْفًا ۙ

wa yas'alūnaka ‘anil-jibāli fa qul yansifuhā rabbī nasfā(n).

They ask you about the mountains. Say, 'My Lord will shatter them into dust,

فَيَذَرُهَا قَاعًا صَفْصَفًا ۙ

fa yażaruhā qā‘an ṣafṣafā(n).

leaving them a flat, barren plain,

لَّا تَرٰى فِيْهَا عِوَجًا وَّلَآ اَمْتًا ۗ

lā tarā fīhā ‘iwajaw wa lā amtā(n).

where you will see no curve or ridge.'

يَوْمَىِٕذٍ يَّتَّبِعُوْنَ الدَّاعِيَ لَا عِوَجَ لَهٗ ۚوَخَشَعَتِ الْاَصْوَاتُ لِلرَّحْمٰنِ فَلَا تَسْمَعُ اِلَّا هَمْسًا

yauma'iżiy yattabi‘ūnad-dā‘iya lā ‘iwaja lah(ū), wa khasya‘atil-aṣwātu lir-raḥmāni falā tasma‘u illā hamsā(n).

On that Day, they will follow the Caller with no deviation. Voices will be hushed before the Most Merciful, and you will hear nothing but a faint murmur.

يَوْمَىِٕذٍ لَّا تَنْفَعُ الشَّفَاعَةُ اِلَّا مَنْ اَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَرَضِيَ لَهٗ قَوْلًا

yauma'iżil lā tanfa‘usy-syafā‘atu illā man ażina lahur-raḥmānu wa raḍiya lahū qaulā(n).

On that Day, intercession will not benefit except for those whom the Most Merciful permits and whose word He accepts.

يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا يُحِيْطُوْنَ بِهٖ عِلْمًا

ya‘lamu mā baina aidīhim wa mā khalfahum wa lā yuḥīṭūna bihī ‘ilmā(n).

He knows what is before them and what is behind them, but their knowledge cannot encompass Him.

۞ وَعَنَتِ الْوُجُوْهُ لِلْحَيِّ الْقَيُّوْمِۗ وَقَدْ خَابَ مَنْ حَمَلَ ظُلْمًا

wa ‘anatil-wujūhu lil-ḥayyil-qayyūm(i), wa qad khāba man ḥamala ẓulmā(n).

All faces will be humbled before the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustaining. Those who carry injustice will fail.

وَمَنْ يَّعْمَلْ مِنَ الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَا يَخٰفُ ظُلْمًا وَّلَا هَضْمًا

wa may ya‘mal minaṣ-ṣāliḥāti wa huwa mu'minun falā yakhāfu ẓulmaw wa lā haḍmā(n).

But whoever does righteous deeds while believing will fear neither injustice nor deprivation.

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ قُرْاٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا وَّصَرَّفْنَا فِيْهِ مِنَ الْوَعِيْدِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُوْنَ اَوْ يُحْدِثُ لَهُمْ ذِكْرًا

wa każālika anzalnāhu qur'ānan ‘arabiyyaw wa ṣarrafnā fīhi minal-wa‘īdi la‘allahum yattaqūna au yuḥdiṡu lahum żikrā(n).

Thus, We have sent down the Qur’an in Arabic, and We have explained in it some of the warnings, that they may fear Allah or that it may cause them to remember.

فَتَعٰلَى اللّٰهُ الْمَلِكُ الْحَقُّۚ وَلَا تَعْجَلْ بِالْقُرْاٰنِ مِنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ يُّقْضٰٓى اِلَيْكَ وَحْيُهٗ ۖوَقُلْ رَّبِّ زِدْنِيْ عِلْمًا

fa ta‘ālallāhul-malikul-ḥaqq(u), wa lā ta‘jal bil-qur'āni min qabli ay yuqḍā ilaika waḥyuh(ū), wa qur rabbi zidnī ‘ilmā(n).

Exalted is Allah, the True King. Do not hasten (to recite) the Qur’an before its revelation to you is complete, and say, 'My Lord, increase me in knowledge.'

وَلَقَدْ عَهِدْنَآ اِلٰٓى اٰدَمَ مِنْ قَبْلُ فَنَسِيَ وَلَمْ نَجِدْ لَهٗ عَزْمًا ࣖ

wa laqad ‘ahidnā ilā ādama min qablu fa nasiya wa lam najid lahū ‘azmā(n).

We had already commanded Adam before, but he forgot, and We found no firm resolve in him.

وَاِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةِ اسْجُدُوْا لِاٰدَمَ فَسَجَدُوْٓا اِلَّآ اِبْلِيْسَ اَبٰى ۗ

wa iż qulnā lil-malā'ikatisjudū li'ādama fa sajadū illā iblīsa abā.

When We said to the angels, 'Prostrate to Adam,' they prostrated, except Iblis; he refused.

فَقُلْنَا يٰٓاٰدَمُ اِنَّ هٰذَا عَدُوٌّ لَّكَ وَلِزَوْجِكَ فَلَا يُخْرِجَنَّكُمَا مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ فَتَشْقٰى

fa qulnā yā ādamu inna hāżā ‘aduwwul laka wa lizaujika falā yukhrijannakumā minal-jannati fa tasyqā.

We said, 'O Adam! This (Iblis) is an enemy to you and your wife, so let him not expel you from Paradise, lest you fall into misery.

اِنَّ لَكَ اَلَّا تَجُوْعَ فِيْهَا وَلَا تَعْرٰى ۙ

inna laka allā tajū‘a fīhā wa lā ta‘rā.

Indeed, there you will neither hunger nor be unclothed,

وَاَنَّكَ لَا تَظْمَؤُا فِيْهَا وَلَا تَضْحٰى

wa annaka lā taẓma'u fīhā wa lā taḍḥā.

nor will you thirst or suffer from the sun’s heat.'

فَوَسْوَسَ اِلَيْهِ الشَّيْطٰنُ قَالَ يٰٓاٰدَمُ هَلْ اَدُلُّكَ عَلٰى شَجَرَةِ الْخُلْدِ وَمُلْكٍ لَّا يَبْلٰى

fa waswasa ilaihisy-syaiṭānu qāla yā ādamu hal adulluka ‘alā syajaratil-khuldi wa mulkil lā yablā.

But Satan whispered to him, saying, 'O Adam! Shall I show you the tree of eternity and a kingdom that never decays?'

فَاَكَلَا مِنْهَا فَبَدَتْ لَهُمَا سَوْءٰتُهُمَا وَطَفِقَا يَخْصِفٰنِ عَلَيْهِمَا مِنْ وَّرَقِ الْجَنَّةِۚ وَعَصٰىٓ اٰدَمُ رَبَّهٗ فَغَوٰى ۖ

fa akalā minhā fa badat lahumā sau'ātuhumā wa ṭafiqā yakhṣifāni ‘alaihimā miw waraqil-jannah(ti), wa ‘aṣā ādamu rabbahū fa gawā.

So they both ate from it, and their private parts became apparent to them, and they began covering themselves with the leaves of Paradise. Adam disobeyed his Lord and went astray.

ثُمَّ اجْتَبٰىهُ رَبُّهٗ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ وَهَدٰى

Ṡummajtabāhu rabbuhū fa tāba ‘alaihi wa hadā.

Then his Lord chose him, accepted his repentance, and guided him.

قَالَ اهْبِطَا مِنْهَا جَمِيْعًاۢ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّ ۚفَاِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُمْ مِّنِّيْ هُدًى ەۙ فَمَنِ اتَّبَعَ هُدَايَ فَلَا يَضِلُّ وَلَا يَشْقٰى

qālahbiṭā minhā jamī‘am ba‘ḍukum liba‘ḍin ‘aduww(un), fa immā ya'tiyannakum minnī hudā(n), fa manittaba‘a hudāya falā yaḍillu wa lā yasyqā.

He said, 'Descend, both of you, from it (Paradise), as enemies to one another. When guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance will neither go astray nor suffer.

وَمَنْ اَعْرَضَ عَنْ ذِكْرِيْ فَاِنَّ لَهٗ مَعِيْشَةً ضَنْكًا وَّنَحْشُرُهٗ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ اَعْمٰى

wa man a‘raḍa ‘an żikrī fa inna lahū ma‘īsyatan ḍankaw wa naḥsyuruhū yaumal-qiyāmati a‘mā.

But whoever turns away from My reminder will have a life of hardship, and We will gather him on the Day of Resurrection blind.'

قَالَ رَبِّ لِمَ حَشَرْتَنِيْٓ اَعْمٰى وَقَدْ كُنْتُ بَصِيْرًا

qāla rabbi lima ḥasyartanī a‘mā wa qad kuntu baṣīrā(n).

He will say, 'My Lord, why have You gathered me blind when I could see before?'

قَالَ كَذٰلِكَ اَتَتْكَ اٰيٰتُنَا فَنَسِيْتَهَاۚ وَكَذٰلِكَ الْيَوْمَ تُنْسٰى

qāla każālika atatka āyātunā fa nasītahā, wa każālikal-yauma tunsā.

He will say, 'Thus, Our signs came to you, but you ignored them, so today you are ignored.'

وَكَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِيْ مَنْ اَسْرَفَ وَلَمْ يُؤْمِنْۢ بِاٰيٰتِ رَبِّهٖۗ وَلَعَذَابُ الْاٰخِرَةِ اَشَدُّ وَاَبْقٰى

wa każālika najzī man asrafa wa lam yu'mim bi'āyāti rabbih(ī), wa la‘ażābul-ākhirati asyaddu wa abqā.

Thus, We recompense those who transgress and do not believe in their Lord’s signs. The punishment of the Hereafter is more severe and more lasting.

اَفَلَمْ يَهْدِ لَهُمْ كَمْ اَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُمْ مِّنَ الْقُرُوْنِ يَمْشُوْنَ فِيْ مَسٰكِنِهِمْۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّاُولِى النُّهٰى ࣖ

afalam yahdi lahum kam ahlaknā qablahum minal-qurūni yamsyūna fī masākinihim, inna fī żālika la'āyātil li'ulin nuhā.

Does it not guide them how many generations We destroyed before them, whose ruins they walk among? Indeed, in that are signs for those who reason.

وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ لَكَانَ لِزَامًا وَّاَجَلٌ مُّسَمًّى ۗ

wa lau lā kalimatun sabaqat mir rabbika lakāna lizāmaw wa ajalum musammā(n).

Had it not been for a prior decree from your Lord and an appointed term, (punishment) would have come upon them.

فَاصْبِرْ عَلٰى مَا يَقُوْلُوْنَ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ قَبْلَ طُلُوْعِ الشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ غُرُوْبِهَا ۚوَمِنْ اٰنَاۤئِ الَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْ وَاَطْرَافَ النَّهَارِ لَعَلَّكَ تَرْضٰى

faṣbir ‘alā mā yaqūlūna wa sabbiḥ biḥamdi rabbika qabla ṭulū‘isy-syamsi wa qabla gurūbihā, wa min ānā'il-laili fa sabbiḥ wa aṭrāfan-nahāri la‘allaka tarḍā.

So be patient (Muhammad) with what they say, and glorify your Lord with praise before the rising of the sun and before its setting, and glorify Him in the hours of the night and at the ends of the day, that you may find contentment.

وَلَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ اِلٰى مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهٖٓ اَزْوَاجًا مِّنْهُمْ زَهْرَةَ الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَا ەۙ لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيْهِ ۗوَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَّاَبْقٰى

wa lā tamuddanna ‘ainaika ilā mā matta‘nā bihī azwājam minhum zahratal-ḥayātid-dun-yā, linaftinahum fīh(i), wa rizqu rabbika khairuw wa abqā.

Do not cast your eyes toward the pleasures We have granted to some of them, as a fleeting adornment of worldly life to test them. Your Lord’s provision is better and more lasting.

وَأْمُرْ اَهْلَكَ بِالصَّلٰوةِ وَاصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَاۗ لَا نَسْـَٔلُكَ رِزْقًاۗ نَحْنُ نَرْزُقُكَۗ وَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلتَّقْوٰى

wa'mur ahlaka biṣ-ṣalāti waṣṭabir ‘alaihā, lā nas'aluka rizqā(n), naḥnu narzuquk(a), wal-‘āqibatu lit-taqwā.

Command your family to pray and be steadfast in it. We do not ask you for provision; We provide for you. The outcome is for those who fear Allah.

وَقَالُوْا لَوْلَا يَأْتِيْنَا بِاٰيَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖۗ اَوَلَمْ تَأْتِهِمْ بَيِّنَةُ مَا فِى الصُّحُفِ الْاُوْلٰى

wa qālū lau lā ya'tīnā bi'āyatim mir rabbih(ī), awalam ta'tihim bayyinatu mā fiṣ-ṣuḥufil-ūlā.

They say, 'Why does he not bring us a sign from his Lord?' Has not a clear proof come to them in what is in the former scriptures?

وَلَوْ اَنَّآ اَهْلَكْنٰهُمْ بِعَذَابٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِهٖ لَقَالُوْا رَبَّنَا لَوْلَآ اَرْسَلْتَ اِلَيْنَا رَسُوْلًا فَنَتَّبِعَ اٰيٰتِكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ نَّذِلَّ وَنَخْزٰى

wa lau annā ahlaknāhum bi‘ażābim min qablihī laqālū rabbanā lau lā arsalta ilainā rasūlan fa nattabi‘a āyātika min qabli an nażilla wa nakhzā.

Had We destroyed them with punishment before (the Qur’an), they would have said, 'Our Lord, why did You not send us a messenger so we could follow Your signs before being humiliated and disgraced?'

قُلْ كُلٌّ مُّتَرَبِّصٌ فَتَرَبَّصُوْاۚ فَسَتَعْلَمُوْنَ مَنْ اَصْحٰبُ الصِّرَاطِ السَّوِيِّ وَمَنِ اهْتَدٰى ࣖ ۔

qul kullum mutarabbiṣun fa tarabbaṣū, fa sata‘lamūna man aṣḥābuṣ-ṣirāṭis-sawiyyi wa manihtadā.

Say, 'Each is waiting, so wait! You will soon know who follows the straight path and who is guided.'
