إِنَّاۤ أَنزَلۡنَـٰهُ فِی لَیۡلَةࣲ مُّبَـٰرَكَةٍۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِینَ ﴿٣﴾
We sent it down during a Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).
أَمۡرࣰا مِّنۡ عِندِنَاۤۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرۡسِلِینَ ﴿٥﴾
By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations),
رَحۡمَةࣰ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِیعُ ٱلۡعَلِیمُ ﴿٦﴾
As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (all things);
رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَیۡنَهُمَاۤۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِینَ ﴿٧﴾
The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all between them, if ye (but) have an assured faith.
لَاۤ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ یُحۡیِۦ وَیُمِیتُۖ رَبُّكُمۡ وَرَبُّ ءَابَاۤىِٕكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِینَ ﴿٨﴾
There is no god but He: It is He Who gives life and gives death,- The Lord and Cherisher to you and your earliest ancestors.
فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ یَوۡمَ تَأۡتِی ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ بِدُخَانࣲ مُّبِینࣲ ﴿١٠﴾
Then watch thou for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke (or mist) plainly visible,
یَغۡشَى ٱلنَّاسَۖ هَـٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِیمࣱ ﴿١١﴾
Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.
رَّبَّنَا ٱكۡشِفۡ عَنَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤۡمِنُونَ ﴿١٢﴾
(They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ مُّبِینࣱ ﴿١٣﴾
How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them,-
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُواْ مُعَلَّمࣱ مَّجۡنُونٌ ﴿١٤﴾
Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"
إِنَّا كَاشِفُواْ ٱلۡعَذَابِ قَلِیلًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ عَاۤىِٕدُونَ ﴿١٥﴾
We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).
یَوۡمَ نَبۡطِشُ ٱلۡبَطۡشَةَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰۤ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ ﴿١٦﴾
One day We shall seize you with a mighty onslaught: We will indeed (then) exact Retribution!
۞ وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَجَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ كَرِیمٌ ﴿١٧﴾
We did, before them, try the people of Pharaoh: there came to them a messenger most honourable,
أَنۡ أَدُّوۤاْ إِلَیَّ عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّی لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِینࣱ ﴿١٨﴾
Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;
وَأَن لَّا تَعۡلُواْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّیۤ ءَاتِیكُم بِسُلۡطَـٰنࣲ مُّبِینࣲ ﴿١٩﴾
"And be not arrogant as against Allah: for I come to you with authority manifest.
وَإِنِّی عُذۡتُ بِرَبِّی وَرَبِّكُمۡ أَن تَرۡجُمُونِ ﴿٢٠﴾
"For me, I have sought safety with my Lord and your Lord, against your injuring me.
وَإِن لَّمۡ تُؤۡمِنُواْ لِی فَٱعۡتَزِلُونِ ﴿٢١﴾
"If ye believe me not, at least keep yourselves away from me."
فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥۤ أَنَّ هَـٰۤؤُلَاۤءِ قَوۡمࣱ مُّجۡرِمُونَ ﴿٢٢﴾
(But they were aggressive:) then he cried to his Lord: "These are indeed a people given to sin."
فَأَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِی لَیۡلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ ﴿٢٣﴾
(The reply came:) "March forth with My Servants by night: for ye are sure to be pursued.
وَٱتۡرُكِ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ رَهۡوًاۖ إِنَّهُمۡ جُندࣱ مُّغۡرَقُونَ ﴿٢٤﴾
"And leave the sea as a furrow (divided): for they are a host (destined) to be drowned."
وَنَعۡمَةࣲ كَانُواْ فِیهَا فَـٰكِهِینَ ﴿٢٧﴾
And wealth (and conveniences of life), wherein they had taken such delight!
كَذَ ٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَـٰهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِینَ ﴿٢٨﴾
Thus (was their end)! And We made other people inherit (those things)!
فَمَا بَكَتۡ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُنظَرِینَ ﴿٢٩﴾
And neither heaven nor earth shed a tear over them: nor were they given a respite (again).
وَلَقَدۡ نَجَّیۡنَا بَنِیۤ إِسۡرَ ٰۤءِیلَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡمُهِینِ ﴿٣٠﴾
We did deliver aforetime the Children of Israel from humiliating Punishment,
مِن فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِیࣰا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِینَ ﴿٣١﴾
Inflicted by Pharaoh, for he was arrogant (even) among inordinate transgressors.
وَلَقَدِ ٱخۡتَرۡنَـٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمٍ عَلَى ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ﴿٣٢﴾
And We chose them aforetime above the nations, knowingly,
وَءَاتَیۡنَـٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡـَٔایَـٰتِ مَا فِیهِ بَلَـٰۤؤࣱاْ مُّبِینٌ ﴿٣٣﴾
And granted them Signs in which there was a manifest trial
إِنۡ هِیَ إِلَّا مَوۡتَتُنَا ٱلۡأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُنشَرِینَ ﴿٣٥﴾
"There is nothing beyond our first death, and we shall not be raised again.
فَأۡتُواْ بِـَٔابَاۤىِٕنَاۤ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَـٰدِقِینَ ﴿٣٦﴾
"Then bring (back) our forefathers, if what ye say is true!"
أَهُمۡ خَیۡرٌ أَمۡ قَوۡمُ تُبَّعࣲ وَٱلَّذِینَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَـٰهُمۡۚ إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ مُجۡرِمِینَ ﴿٣٧﴾
What! Are they better than the people of Tubba and those who were before them? We destroyed them because they were guilty of sin.
وَمَا خَلَقۡنَا ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَیۡنَهُمَا لَـٰعِبِینَ ﴿٣٨﴾
We created not the heavens, the earth, and all between them, merely in (idle) sport:
مَا خَلَقۡنَـٰهُمَاۤ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ ﴿٣٩﴾
We created them not except for just ends: but most of them do not understand.
إِنَّ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ مِیقَـٰتُهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِینَ ﴿٤٠﴾
Verily the Day of sorting out is the time appointed for all of them,-
یَوۡمَ لَا یُغۡنِی مَوۡلًى عَن مَّوۡلࣰى شَیۡـࣰٔا وَلَا هُمۡ یُنصَرُونَ ﴿٤١﴾
The Day when no protector can avail his client in aught, and no help can they receive,
إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡعَزِیزُ ٱلرَّحِیمُ ﴿٤٢﴾
Except such as receive Allah's Mercy: for He is Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.
خُذُوهُ فَٱعۡتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَاۤءِ ٱلۡجَحِیمِ ﴿٤٧﴾
(A voice will cry: "Seize ye him and drag him into the midst of the Blazing Fire!
ثُمَّ صُبُّواْ فَوۡقَ رَأۡسِهِۦ مِنۡ عَذَابِ ٱلۡحَمِیمِ ﴿٤٨﴾
"Then pour over his head the Penalty of Boiling Water,
ذُقۡ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡعَزِیزُ ٱلۡكَرِیمُ ﴿٤٩﴾
"Taste thou (this)! Truly wast thou mighty, full of honour!
إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ فِی مَقَامٍ أَمِینࣲ ﴿٥١﴾
As to the Righteous (they will be) in a position of Security,
یَلۡبَسُونَ مِن سُندُسࣲ وَإِسۡتَبۡرَقࣲ مُّتَقَـٰبِلِینَ ﴿٥٣﴾
Dressed in fine silk and in rich brocade, they will face each other;
كَذَ ٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجۡنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِینࣲ ﴿٥٤﴾
So; and We shall join them to fair women with beautiful, big, and lustrous eyes.
یَدۡعُونَ فِیهَا بِكُلِّ فَـٰكِهَةٍ ءَامِنِینَ ﴿٥٥﴾
There can they call for every kind of fruit in peace and security;
لَا یَذُوقُونَ فِیهَا ٱلۡمَوۡتَ إِلَّا ٱلۡمَوۡتَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰۖ وَوَقَىٰهُمۡ عَذَابَ ٱلۡجَحِیمِ ﴿٥٦﴾
Nor will they there taste Death, except the first death; and He will preserve them from the Penalty of the Blazing Fire,-
فَضۡلࣰا مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِیمُ ﴿٥٧﴾
As a Bounty from thy Lord! that will be the supreme achievement!
فَإِنَّمَا یَسَّرۡنَـٰهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَتَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿٥٨﴾
Verily, We have made this (Qur'an) easy, in thy tongue, in order that they may give heed.
