Glory to Allah who revealed the Criterion to His servant to warn all worlds.

ۨالَّذِيْ لَهٗ مُلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَلَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَدًا وَّلَمْ يَكُنْ لَّهٗ شَرِيْكٌ فِى الْمُلْكِ وَخَلَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ فَقَدَّرَهٗ تَقْدِيْرًا

allażī lahū mulkus-samāwāti wal-arḍi wa lam yattakhiż waladaw wa lam yakul lahū syarīkun fil-mulki wa khalaqa kulla syai'in fa qaddarahū taqdīrā(n).

He owns heavens and earth’s dominion, has no child, no partner in His rule, created all things, and measured them precisely.

وَاتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖٓ اٰلِهَةً لَّا يَخْلُقُوْنَ شَيْـًٔا وَّهُمْ يُخْلَقُوْنَ وَلَا يَمْلِكُوْنَ لِاَنْفُسِهِمْ ضَرًّا وَّلَا نَفْعًا وَّلَا يَمْلِكُوْنَ مَوْتًا وَّلَا حَيٰوةً وَّلَا نُشُوْرًا

Yet they take gods besides Him that create nothing, are created, control no harm, benefit, death, life, or resurrection.

وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْٓا اِنْ هٰذَآ اِلَّآ اِفْكُ ِۨافْتَرٰىهُ وَاَعَانَهٗ عَلَيْهِ قَوْمٌ اٰخَرُوْنَۚ فَقَدْ جَاۤءُوْ ظُلْمًا وَّزُوْرًا ۚ

wa qālal-lażīna kafarū in hāżā illā ifkuniftarāhu wa a‘ānahū ‘alaihi qaumun ākharūn(a), fa qad jā'ū ẓulmaw wa zūrā(n).

Disbelievers say, 'This is but a lie he fabricated with others’ help,' committing grave injustice and falsehood.

وَقَالُوْٓا اَسَاطِيْرُ الْاَوَّلِيْنَ اكْتَتَبَهَا فَهِيَ تُمْلٰى عَلَيْهِ بُكْرَةً وَّاَصِيْلًا

They claim, 'Tales of ancients he had written, recited to him morn and eve.'

قُلْ اَنْزَلَهُ الَّذِيْ يَعْلَمُ السِّرَّ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ غَفُوْرًا رَّحِيْمًا

وَقَالُوْا مَالِ هٰذَا الرَّسُوْلِ يَأْكُلُ الطَّعَامَ وَيَمْشِيْ فِى الْاَسْوَاقِۗ لَوْلَآ اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْهِ مَلَكٌ فَيَكُوْنَ مَعَهٗ نَذِيْرًا ۙ

wa qālū mā lihāżar-rasūli ya'kuluṭ-ṭa‘āma wa yamsyī fil-aswāq(i), lau lā unzila ‘alaihi malakun fa yakūna ma‘ahū nażīrā(n).

They say, 'Why does this Messenger eat food, walk in markets? Why no angel sent with him to warn alongside?'

اَوْ يُلْقٰىٓ اِلَيْهِ كَنْزٌ اَوْ تَكُوْنُ لَهٗ جَنَّةٌ يَّأْكُلُ مِنْهَاۗ وَقَالَ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ اِنْ تَتَّبِعُوْنَ اِلَّا رَجُلًا مَّسْحُوْرًا

Or, 'Why no treasure sent to him, or a garden to eat from?' Wrongdoers say, 'You follow a bewitched man.'

اُنْظُرْ كَيْفَ ضَرَبُوْا لَكَ الْاَمْثَالَ فَضَلُّوْا فَلَا يَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ سَبِيْلًا ࣖ

unẓur kaifa ḍarabū lakal-amṡāla fa ḍallū falā yastaṭī‘ūna sabīlā(n).

See how they make parables for you, straying, unable to find a way.

تَبٰرَكَ الَّذِيْٓ اِنْ شَاۤءَ جَعَلَ لَكَ خَيْرًا مِّنْ ذٰلِكَ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُۙ وَيَجْعَلْ لَّكَ قُصُوْرًا

tabārakal-lażī in syā'a ja‘ala laka khairam min żālika jannātin tajrī min taḥtihal-anhār(u), wa yaj‘al laka quṣūrā(n).

Glory to He who, if willed, could grant you better—gardens with rivers beneath, and palaces.

bal każżabū bis-sā‘ah(ti), wa a‘tadnā liman każżaba bis-sā‘ati sa‘īrā(n).

Yet they deny the Hour; for deniers, We’ve prepared a blazing Fire.

اِذَا رَاَتْهُمْ مِّنْ مَّكَانٍۢ بَعِيْدٍ سَمِعُوْا لَهَا تَغَيُّظًا وَّزَفِيْرًا

iżā ra'athum mim makānim ba‘īdin sami‘ū lahā tagayyuẓaw wa zafīrā(n).

When it sees them from afar, they’ll hear its raging roar.

وَاِذَآ اُلْقُوْا مِنْهَا مَكَانًا ضَيِّقًا مُّقَرَّنِيْنَ دَعَوْا هُنَالِكَ ثُبُوْرًا ۗ

wa iżā ulqū minhā makānan ḍayyiqam muqarranīna da‘au hunālika ṡubūrā(n).

Bound in a narrow place, they’ll cry for destruction.

لَا تَدْعُوا الْيَوْمَ ثُبُوْرًا وَّاحِدًا وَّادْعُوْا ثُبُوْرًا كَثِيْرًا

lā tad‘ul-yauma ṡubūraw wāḥidaw wad‘ū ṡubūran kaṡīrā(n).

Today, wish not for one destruction, but many.

قُلْ اَذٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ اَمْ جَنَّةُ الْخُلْدِ الَّتِيْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَۗ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَزَاۤءً وَّمَصِيْرًا

qul ażālika khairun am jannatul-khuldil-latī wu‘idal-muttaqūn(a), kānat lahum jazā'aw wa maṣīrā(n).

Say, 'Is that better, or eternal Paradise promised to the pious as reward and home?'

لَهُمْ فِيْهَا مَا يَشَاۤءُوْنَ خٰلِدِيْنَۗ كَانَ عَلٰى رَبِّكَ وَعْدًا مَّسْـُٔوْلًا

lahum fīhā mā yasyā'ūna khālidīn(a), kāna ‘alā rabbika wa‘dam mas'ūlā(n).

Therein, they have all they desire, forever; a promise from your Lord fulfilled.

وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ وَمَا يَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ فَيَقُوْلُ ءَاَنْتُمْ اَضْلَلْتُمْ عِبَادِيْ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ اَمْ هُمْ ضَلُّوا السَّبِيْلَ ۗ

wa yauma yaḥsyuruhum wa mā ya‘budūna min dūnillāhi fa yaqūlu a'antum aḍlaltum ‘ibādī hā'ulā'i am hum ḍallus-sabīl(a).

On the Day He gathers them and their worshipped besides Allah, He’ll ask, 'Did you mislead My servants, or did they stray?'

قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَكَ مَا كَانَ يَنْۢبَغِيْ لَنَآ اَنْ نَّتَّخِذَ مِنْ دُوْنِكَ مِنْ اَوْلِيَاۤءَ وَلٰكِنْ مَّتَّعْتَهُمْ وَاٰبَاۤءَهُمْ حَتّٰى نَسُوا الذِّكْرَۚ وَكَانُوْا قَوْمًاۢ بُوْرًا

qālū subḥānaka mā kāna yambagī lanā an nattakhiża min dūnika min auliyā'a wa lākim matta‘tahum wa ābā'ahum ḥattā nasuż-żikr(a), wa kānū qaumam būrā(n).

They’ll say, 'Glory to You! We couldn’t take protectors besides You; You gave them and their ancestors pleasures, forgetting the Reminder; they were ruined.'

فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوْكُمْ بِمَا تَقُوْلُوْنَۙ فَمَا تَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ صَرْفًا وَّلَا نَصْرًاۚ وَمَنْ يَّظْلِمْ مِّنْكُمْ نُذِقْهُ عَذَابًا كَبِيْرًا

faqad każżabūkum bimā taqūlūn(a), famā tastaṭī‘ūna ṣarfaw wa lā naṣrā(n), wa may yaẓlim minkum nużiqhu ‘ażāban kabīrā(n).

They deny your words; you can’t avert punishment or help; wrongdoers among you face great torment.

وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ اِلَّآ اِنَّهُمْ لَيَأْكُلُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ وَيَمْشُوْنَ فِى الْاَسْوَاقِۗ وَجَعَلْنَا بَعْضَكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِتْنَةً ۗ اَتَصْبِرُوْنَۚ وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ بَصِيْرًا ࣖ ۔

wa mā arsalnā qablaka minal-mursalīna illā innahum laya'kulūnaṭ-ṭa‘āma wa yamsyūna fil aswāq(i), wa ja‘alnā ba‘ḍakum liba‘ḍin fitnah(tan), ataṣbirūn(a), wa kāna rabbuka baṣīrā(n).

Messengers before you ate food, walked markets; We made you trials for each other; will you endure? Your Lord sees all.

۞ وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ لَا يَرْجُوْنَ لِقَاۤءَنَا لَوْلَآ اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْنَا الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُ اَوْ نَرٰى رَبَّنَا ۗ لَقَدِ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا فِيْٓ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَعَتَوْ عُتُوًّا كَبِيْرًا

wa qālal-lażīna lā yarjūna liqā'anā lau lā unzila ‘alainal-malā'ikata au narā rabbanā, laqadistakbarū fī anfusihim wa ‘atau ‘utuwwan kabīrā(n).

Those not hoping to meet Us say, 'Why no angels sent to us, or why see not our Lord?' They’re arrogant, transgressing bounds.

يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَ الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةَ لَا بُشْرٰى يَوْمَىِٕذٍ لِّلْمُجْرِمِيْنَ وَيَقُوْلُوْنَ حِجْرًا مَّحْجُوْرًا

yauma yaraunal-malā'ikata lā busyrā yauma'iżil lil-mujrimīna wa yaqūlūna ḥijram maḥjūrā(n).

The Day they see angels, no glad tidings for sinners; they’ll say, 'A barrier forbidden.'

وَقَدِمْنَآ اِلٰى مَا عَمِلُوْا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنٰهُ هَبَاۤءً مَّنْثُوْرًا

wa qadimnā ilā mā ‘amilū min ‘amalin fa ja‘alnāhu habā'am manṡūrā(n).

Their deeds We’ll turn to scattered dust.

اَصْحٰبُ الْجَنَّةِ يَوْمَىِٕذٍ خَيْرٌ مُّسْتَقَرًّا وَّاَحْسَنُ مَقِيْلًا

aṣḥābul-jannati yauma'iżin khairum mustaqarraw wa aḥsanu maqīlā(n).

Paradise’s dwellers that Day have best abodes, finest resting places.

وَيَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ السَّمَاۤءُ بِالْغَمَامِ وَنُزِّلَ الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُ تَنْزِيْلًا

wa yauma tasyaqqaqus-samā'u bil-gamāmi wa nuzzilal-malā'ikatu tanzīlā(n).

The Day skies split with clouds, angels descend in ranks.

اَلْمُلْكُ يَوْمَىِٕذِ ِۨالْحَقُّ لِلرَّحْمٰنِۗ وَكَانَ يَوْمًا عَلَى الْكٰفِرِيْنَ عَسِيْرًا

al-mulku yauma'iżinil-ḥaqqu lir-raḥmān(i), wa kāna yauman ‘alal-kāfirīna ‘asīrā(n).

True sovereignty that Day is the Most Merciful’s; a hard Day for disbelievers.

وَيَوْمَ يَعَضُّ الظَّالِمُ عَلٰى يَدَيْهِ يَقُوْلُ يٰلَيْتَنِى اتَّخَذْتُ مَعَ الرَّسُوْلِ سَبِيْلًا

wa yauma ya‘aḍḍuẓ-ẓālimu ‘alā yadaihi yaqūlu yā laitanittakhażtu ma‘ar-rasūli sabīlā(n).

That Day, wrongdoers bite their hands, saying, 'If only I’d followed the Messenger’s path!'

يٰوَيْلَتٰى لَيْتَنِيْ لَمْ اَتَّخِذْ فُلَانًا خَلِيْلًا

yā wailatā laitanī lam attakhiż fulānan khalīlā(n).

Woe to me! Had I not taken that one as friend!

لَقَدْ اَضَلَّنِيْ عَنِ الذِّكْرِ بَعْدَ اِذْ جَاۤءَنِيْۗ وَكَانَ الشَّيْطٰنُ لِلْاِنْسَانِ خَذُوْلًا

laqad aḍallanī ‘aniż-żikri ba‘da iż jā'anī, wa kānasy-syaiṭānu lil-insāni khażūlā(n).

He led me astray from the Reminder after it came; Satan betrays mankind.

وَقَالَ الرَّسُوْلُ يٰرَبِّ اِنَّ قَوْمِى اتَّخَذُوْا هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنَ مَهْجُوْرًا

wa qālar-rasūlu yā rabbi inna qaumittakhażū hāżal-qur'āna mahjūrā(n).

The Messenger says, 'My Lord, my people abandoned this Qur’an.'

وَكَذٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِيٍّ عَدُوًّا مِّنَ الْمُجْرِمِيْنَۗ وَكَفٰى بِرَبِّكَ هَادِيًا وَّنَصِيْرًا

wa każālika ja‘alnā likulli nabiyyin ‘aduwwam minal-mujrimīn(a), wa kafā birabbika hādiyaw wa naṣīrā(n).

Thus, for every prophet, We made enemies among sinners; your Lord suffices as Guide and Helper.

وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَوْلَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الْقُرْاٰنُ جُمْلَةً وَّاحِدَةً ۛ كَذٰلِكَ ۛ لِنُثَبِّتَ بِهٖ فُؤَادَكَ وَرَتَّلْنٰهُ تَرْتِيْلًا

wa qālal-lażīna kafarū lau lā nuzzila ‘alaihil-qur'ānu jumlataw wāḥidatan - każālika - linuṡabbita bihī fu'ādaka wa rattalnāhu tartīlā(n).

Disbelievers say, 'Why wasn’t the Qur’an revealed all at once?' So We strengthen your heart, reciting it gradually, clearly.

وَلَا يَأْتُوْنَكَ بِمَثَلٍ اِلَّا جِئْنٰكَ بِالْحَقِّ وَاَحْسَنَ تَفْسِيْرًا ۗ

wa lā ya'tūnaka bimaṡalin illā ji'nāka bil-ḥaqqi wa aḥsana tafsīrā(n).

No odd claim they bring but We give you truth and best explanation.

اَلَّذِيْنَ يُحْشَرُوْنَ عَلٰى وُجُوْهِهِمْ اِلٰى جَهَنَّمَۙ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا وَّاَضَلُّ سَبِيْلًا ࣖ

allażīna yuḥsyarūna ‘alā wujūhihim ilā jahannam(a), ulā'ika syarrum makānaw wa aḍallu sabīlā(n).

Those dragged face-down to Hell have worst places, most astray paths.

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوْسَى الْكِتٰبَ وَجَعَلْنَا مَعَهٗٓ اَخَاهُ هٰرُوْنَ وَزِيْرًا ۚ

wa laqad ātainā mūsal-kitāba wa ja‘alnā ma‘ahū akhāhu hārūna wazīrā(n).

We gave Musa the Book, made Harun his aide.

فَقُلْنَا اذْهَبَآ اِلَى الْقَوْمِ الَّذِيْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰيٰتِنَاۗ فَدَمَّرْنٰهُمْ تَدْمِيْرًا ۗ

fa qulnażhabā ilal-qaumil-lażīna każżabū bi'āyātinā, fa dammarnāhum tadmīrā(n).

We said, 'Go to the people denying Our signs.' We destroyed them utterly.

وَقَوْمَ نُوْحٍ لَّمَّا كَذَّبُوا الرُّسُلَ اَغْرَقْنٰهُمْ وَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ لِلنَّاسِ اٰيَةًۗ وَاَعْتَدْنَا لِلظّٰلِمِيْنَ عَذَابًا اَلِيْمًا ۚ

wa qauma nūḥil lammā każżabur-rusula agraqnāhum wa ja‘alnāhum lin-nāsi āyah(tan), wa a‘tadnā liẓ-ẓālimīna ‘ażāban alīmā(n).

Nuh’s people denied messengers; We drowned them, made them a sign for mankind; for wrongdoers, We prepared painful torment.

وَعَادًا وَّثَمُوْدَا۟ وَاَصْحٰبَ الرَّسِّ وَقُرُوْنًاۢ بَيْنَ ذٰلِكَ كَثِيْرًا

wa ‘ādaw wa ṡamūda wa aṣḥābar-rassi wa qurūnam baina żālika kaṡīrā(n).

‘Ad, Thamud, Rass’s people, and many generations between.

وَكُلًّا ضَرَبْنَا لَهُ الْاَمْثَالَۖ وَكُلًّا تَبَّرْنَا تَتْبِيْرًا

wa kullan ḍarabnā lahul-amṡāl(a), wa kullan tabbarnā tatbīrā(n).

Each We gave parables; each We destroyed completely.

وَلَقَدْ اَتَوْا عَلَى الْقَرْيَةِ الَّتِيْٓ اُمْطِرَتْ مَطَرَ السَّوْءِۗ اَفَلَمْ يَكُوْنُوْا يَرَوْنَهَاۚ بَلْ كَانُوْا لَا يَرْجُوْنَ نُشُوْرًا

wa laqad atau ‘alal-qaryatil-latī umṭirat maṭaras-sau'(i), afalam yakūnū yaraunahā, bal kānū lā yarjūna nusyūrā(n).

They passed the town rained with evil; didn’t they see it? Yet they expect no resurrection.

وَاِذَا رَاَوْكَ اِنْ يَّتَّخِذُوْنَكَ اِلَّا هُزُوًاۗ اَهٰذَا الَّذِيْ بَعَثَ اللّٰهُ رَسُوْلًا

wa iżā ra'auka iy yattakhiżūnaka illā huzuwā(n), ahāżal-lażī ba‘aṡallāhu rasūlā(n).

Seeing you, they mock, 'Is this Allah’s sent Messenger?'

اِنْ كَادَ لَيُضِلُّنَا عَنْ اٰلِهَتِنَا لَوْلَآ اَنْ صَبَرْنَا عَلَيْهَاۗ وَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُوْنَ حِيْنَ يَرَوْنَ الْعَذَابَ مَنْ اَضَلُّ سَبِيْلًا

in kāda layuḍillunā ‘an ālihatinā lau lā an ṣabarnā ‘alaihā, wa saufa ya‘lamūna ḥīna yaraunal-‘ażāba man aḍallu sabīlā(n).

He nearly led us from our gods, had we not held firm; soon they’ll know, seeing torment, who strayed most.

اَرَءَيْتَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ اِلٰهَهٗ هَوٰىهُۗ اَفَاَنْتَ تَكُوْنُ عَلَيْهِ وَكِيْلًا ۙ

ara'aita manittakhaża ilāhahū hawāh(u), afa anta takūnu ‘alaihi wakīlā(n).

Have you seen one who takes desires as god? Will you guard him?

اَمْ تَحْسَبُ اَنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ يَسْمَعُوْنَ اَوْ يَعْقِلُوْنَۗ اِنْ هُمْ اِلَّا كَالْاَنْعَامِ بَلْ هُمْ اَضَلُّ سَبِيْلًا ࣖ

am taḥsabu anna akṡarahum yasma‘ūna au ya‘qilūn(a), in hum illā kal-an‘āmi bal hum aḍallu sabīlā(n).

Or think most listen, understand? They’re like cattle, nay, more astray.

اَلَمْ تَرَ اِلٰى رَبِّكَ كَيْفَ مَدَّ الظِّلَّۚ وَلَوْ شَاۤءَ لَجَعَلَهٗ سَاكِنًاۚ ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَا الشَّمْسَ عَلَيْهِ دَلِيْلًا ۙ

alam tara ilā rabbika kaifa maddaẓ-ẓill(a), wa lau syā'a laja‘alahū sākinā(n), ṡumma ja‘alnasy-syamsa ‘alaihi dalīlā(n).

See not how your Lord stretches shadows? If willed, He’d make them still; We made the sun their guide.

ثُمَّ قَبَضْنٰهُ اِلَيْنَا قَبْضًا يَّسِيْرًا

Ṡumma qabaḍnā ilainā qabḍay yasīrā(n).

Then We draw them to Us gradually.

وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا وَّالنَّوْمَ سُبَاتًا وَّجَعَلَ النَّهَارَ نُشُوْرًا

wa huwal-lażī ja‘ala lakumul-laila libāsaw wan-nauma subātaw wa ja‘alan-nahāra nusyūrā(n).

He made night your cloak, sleep for rest, day for rising.

وَهُوَ الَّذِيْٓ اَرْسَلَ الرِّيَاحَ بُشْرًاۢ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَحْمَتِهٖۚ وَاَنْزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَاۤءِ مَاۤءً طَهُوْرًا ۙ

wa huwal-lażī arsalar-riyāḥa busyram baina yadai raḥmatih(ī), wa anzalnā minas-samā'i mā'an ṭahūrā(n).

He sends winds as glad tidings before His mercy; We send pure water from the sky.

لِّنُحْيِ َۧ بِهٖ بَلْدَةً مَّيْتًا وَّنُسْقِيَهٗ مِمَّا خَلَقْنَآ اَنْعَامًا وَّاَنَاسِيَّ كَثِيْرًا

linuḥyiya bihī baldatam maitaw wa nusqiyahū mimmā khalaqnā an‘āmaw wa anāsiyya kaṡīrā(n).

To revive dead lands, quench Our created cattle and many men.

وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنٰهُ بَيْنَهُمْ لِيَذَّكَّرُوْاۖ فَاَبٰىٓ اَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ اِلَّا كُفُوْرًا

wa laqad ṣarrafnāhu bainahum liyażżakkarū, fa abā akṡarun-nāsi illā kufūrā(n).

We distribute it among them to remind; most men refuse but ingratitude.

وَلَوْ شِئْنَا لَبَعَثْنَا فِيْ كُلِّ قَرْيَةٍ نَّذِيْرًا ۖ

wa lau syi'nā laba‘aṡnā fī kulli qaryatin nażīrā(n).

Had We willed, We’d sent a warner to every town.

فَلَا تُطِعِ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ وَجَاهِدْهُمْ بِهٖ جِهَادًا كَبِيْرًا

falā tuṭi‘il-kāfirīna wa jāhidhum bihī jihādan kabīrā(n).

Obey not disbelievers; strive against them with it mightily.

۞ وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ مَرَجَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ هٰذَا عَذْبٌ فُرَاتٌ وَّهٰذَا مِلْحٌ اُجَاجٌۚ وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَهُمَا بَرْزَخًا وَّحِجْرًا مَّحْجُوْرًا

wa huwal-lażī marajal-baḥraini hāżā ‘ażbun furātuw wa hāżā milḥun ujāj(un), wa ja‘ala bainahumā barzakhaw wa ḥijram maḥjūrā(n).

He let two seas flow, one fresh, sweet, one salty, bitter; between them, a barrier unbreached.

وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ مِنَ الْمَاۤءِ بَشَرًا فَجَعَلَهٗ نَسَبًا وَّصِهْرًاۗ وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ قَدِيْرًا

wa huwal-lażī khalaqa minal-mā'i basyaran fa ja‘alahū nasabaw wa ṣihrā(n), wa kāna rabbuka qadīrā(n).

He created man from water, gave him kin and in-laws; your Lord is Almighty.

وَيَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَنْفَعُهُمْ وَلَا يَضُرُّهُمْۗ وَكَانَ الْكَافِرُ عَلٰى رَبِّهٖ ظَهِيْرًا

wa ya‘budūna min dūnillāhi mā lā yanfa‘uhum wa lā yaḍurruhum, wa kānal-kāfiru ‘alā rabbihī ẓahīrā(n).

Yet they worship besides Allah what neither benefits nor harms; disbelievers aid against their Lord.

وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنٰكَ اِلَّا مُبَشِّرًا وَّنَذِيْرًا

wa mā arsalnāka illā mubasysyiraw wa nażīrā(n).

We sent you only as a bearer of glad tidings and warner.

قُلْ مَآ اَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ اَجْرٍ اِلَّا مَنْ شَاۤءَ اَنْ يَّتَّخِذَ اِلٰى رَبِّهٖ سَبِيْلًا

Trust in the Ever-Living who dies not; glorify His praise; He knows His servants’ sins.

اَلَّذِيْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِيْ سِتَّةِ اَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوٰى عَلَى الْعَرْشِۚ اَلرَّحْمٰنُ فَسْـَٔلْ بِهٖ خَبِيْرًا

allażī khalaqas-samāwāti wal-arḍa wa mā bainahumā fī sittati ayyāmin ṡummastawā ‘alal-‘arsy(i), ar-raḥmānu fas'al bihī khabīrā(n).

He created heavens, earth, and all between in six days, then established Himself on the Throne; the Most Merciful, ask the Informed about Him.

وَاِذَا قِيْلَ لَهُمُ اسْجُدُوْا لِلرَّحْمٰنِ قَالُوْا وَمَا الرَّحْمٰنُ اَنَسْجُدُ لِمَا تَأْمُرُنَا وَزَادَهُمْ نُفُوْرًا ۩ ࣖ

When told, 'Prostrate to the Most Merciful,' they say, 'What’s that? Shall we prostrate to what you order?' It increases their aversion.

تَبٰرَكَ الَّذِيْ جَعَلَ فِى السَّمَاۤءِ بُرُوْجًا وَّجَعَلَ فِيْهَا سِرٰجًا وَّقَمَرًا مُّنِيْرًا

Glory to He who placed constellations in the sky, a sun, and glowing moon.

وَهُوَ الَّذِيْ جَعَلَ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ خِلْفَةً لِّمَنْ اَرَادَ اَنْ يَّذَّكَّرَ اَوْ اَرَادَ شُكُوْرًا

wa huwal-lażī ja‘alal-laila wan-nahāra khilfatal liman arāda ay yażżakkara au arāda syukūrā(n).

He made night and day alternate for those seeking lessons or gratitude.

wal-lażīna yabītūna lirabbihim sujjadaw wa qiyāmā(n).

They spend nights worshipping their Lord, prostrating, standing.

وَالَّذِيْنَ يَقُوْلُوْنَ رَبَّنَا اصْرِفْ عَنَّا عَذَابَ جَهَنَّمَۖ اِنَّ عَذَابَهَا كَانَ غَرَامًا ۖ

wal-lażīna yaqūlūna rabbanaṣrif ‘annā ‘ażāba jahannam(a), inna ‘ażābahā kāna garāmā(n).

They say, 'Our Lord, avert Hell’s torment from us; its punishment is everlasting ruin.'

اِنَّهَا سَاۤءَتْ مُسْتَقَرًّا وَّمُقَامًا

innahā sā'at mustaqarraw wa muqāmā(n).

It’s an evil abode and resting place.

وَالَّذِيْنَ اِذَآ اَنْفَقُوْا لَمْ يُسْرِفُوْا وَلَمْ يَقْتُرُوْا وَكَانَ بَيْنَ ذٰلِكَ قَوَامًا

They invoke not other gods with Allah, kill no soul Allah forbids except justly, nor commit adultery; whoever does meets multiplied torment.

يُّضٰعَفْ لَهُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ وَيَخْلُدْ فِيْهٖ مُهَانًا ۙ

yuḍā‘af lahul-‘ażābu yaumal-qiyāmati wa yakhlud fīhī muhānā(n).

On Judgment Day, their torment doubles; they abide in disgrace.

اِلَّا مَنْ تَابَ وَاٰمَنَ وَعَمِلَ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا فَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ يُبَدِّلُ اللّٰهُ سَيِّاٰتِهِمْ حَسَنٰتٍۗ وَكَانَ اللّٰهُ غَفُوْرًا رَّحِيْمًا

illā man tāba wa āmana wa ‘amila ‘amalan ṣāliḥan fa ulā'ika yubaddilullāhu sayyi'ātihim ḥasanāt(in), wa kānallāhu gafūrar raḥīmā(n).

Except those who repent, believe, do good; Allah turns their evils to good; He is Forgiving, Merciful.

Whoever repents, does good, truly returns to Allah.

They’re rewarded with high places in Paradise for patience, greeted with honor, peace.

khālidīna fīhā, ḥasunat mustaqarraw wa muqāmā(n).

Abiding there forever; a fine home, fine resting place.

قُلْ مَا يَعْبَؤُا بِكُمْ رَبِّيْ لَوْلَا دُعَاۤؤُكُمْۚ فَقَدْ كَذَّبْتُمْ فَسَوْفَ يَكُوْنُ لِزَامًا ࣖ
