تَبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِى بِيَدِهِ ٱلْمُلْكُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

Tabaarakal-ladhee biyadihil-mulku wa huwa 'alaa kulli shay'in qadeer

Blessed is He in Whose hand is the sovereignty, and He is Able to do all things.

ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَٱلْحَيَوٰةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًۭا ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْغَفُورُ

Alladhee khalaqal-mawta wal-hayaata liyabluwakum ayyukum ahsanu 'amalaa; wa huwal-'Azeezul-Ghafoor

Who created death and life to test you — which of you does best. He is the Almighty, the All-Forgiving.

ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَـٰوَٰتٍۢ طِبَاقًۭا ۖ مَّا تَرَىٰ فِى خَلْقِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ مِن تَفَـٰوُتٍۢ ۖ فَٱرْجِعِ ٱلْبَصَرَ هَلْ تَرَىٰ مِن فُطُورٍ

Alladhee khalaqa sab'a samaawaatin tibaaqaa; maa taraa fee khalqir-Rahmaani min tafaawut; farji'il-basara hal taraa min futoor

Who created seven heavens in layers. You see no inconsistency in the creation of the Most Merciful. So return your vision — do you see any cracks?

ثُمَّ ٱرْجِعِ ٱلْبَصَرَ كَرَّتَيْنِ يَنقَلِبْ إِلَيْكَ ٱلْبَصَرُ خَاسِئًۭا وَهُوَ حَسِيرٌ

Thummarji'il-basara karratayn yanqalib ilaaykal-basaru khaasi'aw-wa huwa haseer

Then look again and again — your sight will return to you humbled and worn out.

وَلَقَدْ زَيَّنَّا ٱلسَّمَآءَ ٱلدُّنْيَا بِمَصَـٰبِيحَ وَجَعَلْنَـٰهَا رُجُومًۭا لِّلشَّيَـٰطِينِ ۖ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهُمْ عَذَابَ ٱلسَّعِيرِ

Wa laqad zayyannas-samaaa'ad-dunyaa bimasaabeeh; wa ja'alnaahaa rujooman lish-shayaatteen; wa a'tadnaa lahum 'adhaabas-sa'eer

We have adorned the lowest heaven with lamps and made them missiles against the devils, and prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze.

وَلِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِرَبِّهِمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ ۖ وَبِئْسَ ٱلْمَصِيرُ

Wa lilladheena kafaroo birabbihim 'adhaahu Jahannam; wa bi'sal-maseer

And for those who disbelieve in their Lord is the punishment of Hell — and wretched is the destination.

إِذَآ أُلْقُوا۟ فِيهَا سَمِعُوا۟ لَهَا شَهِيقًۭا وَهِىَ تَفُورُ

Idhaa ulqoo feehaa sami'oo lahaa shaheeqaw-wa hiya tafoor

When they are thrown into it, they hear it roaring while it boils up.

تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ ٱلْغَيْظِ ۖ كُلَّمَآ أُلْقِىَ فِيهَا فَوْجٌ سَأَلَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَآ أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَذِيرٌ

Takaadu tamayyazu minal-ghayz; kullamaa ulqiya feehaa fawjun sa'alahum khazanatuhaaa alam ya'tikum nadheer

It almost bursts with rage. Every time a group is thrown in, its keepers ask them: did no warner come to you?

قَالُوا۟ بَلَىٰ قَدْ جَآءَنَا نَذِيرٌ فَكَذَّبْنَا وَقُلْنَا مَا نَزَّلَ ٱللَّهُ مِن شَىْءٍ إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلَّا فِى ضَلَـٰلٍۢ كَبِيرٍ

Qaaloo balaa qad jaaa'anaa nadheerun fakadhdhabnaa wa qulnaa maa nazzalal-laahu min shay'in in antum illaa fee dalaaling kabeer

They will say: Yes, a warner came to us, but we denied and said: Allah has not revealed anything — you are only in great error.

وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ أَوْ نَعْقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِىٓ أَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ

Wa qaaloo law kunnaa nasma'u aw na'qilu maa kunnaa feee as-haabis-sa'eer

They will say: If we had listened or used reason, we would not be among the companions of the Blaze.

فَٱعْتَرَفُوا۟ بِذَنۢبِهِمْ فَسُحْقًۭا لِّأَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ

Fa'tarafoo bidhambihim fasuhqal-li'as-haabis-sa'eer

So they will confess their sins. Destruction to the companions of the Blaze!

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُم بِٱلْغَيْبِ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌۭ وَأَجْرٌۭ كَبِيرٌ

Innal-ladheena yakhshawna rabbahum bilghaybi lahum maghfiratuw-wa ajrun kabeer

Those who fear their Lord in secret will have forgiveness and a great reward.

وَأَسِرُّوا۟ قَوْلَكُمْ أَوِ ٱجْهَرُوا۟ بِهِۦٓ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِيمٌۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ

Wa asirroo qawlakum awij-haroo bih; innahoo 'aleemum bidhatis-sudoor

Whether you speak secretly or openly, He knows what is in the chests.

أَلَا يَعْلَمُ مَنْ خَلَقَ وَهُوَ ٱللَّطِيفُ ٱلْخَبِيرُ

Alaa ya'lamu man khalaqa wa huwal-Lateeful-Khabeer

Would He who created not know? He is the Subtle, the All-Aware.

هُوَ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ ذَلُولًۭا فَٱمْشُوا۟ فِى مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُوا۟ مِن رِّزْقِهِۦ ۖ وَإِلَيْهِ ٱلنُّشُورُ

Huwal-ladhee ja'ala lakumul-arda dhalooolan famshoo fee manaakibihaa wa kuloo min rizqih; wa ilayhin-nushoor

It is He who made the earth tame for you — so walk in its terrain and eat of His provision. And to Him is the resurrection.

أَءَمِنتُم مَّن فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ أَن يَخْسِفَ بِكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ فَإِذَا هِىَ تَمُورُ

A'amintum man fis-samaaa'i ay yakhsifa bikumul-arda fa-idhaa hiya tamoor

Are you confident that He in the heaven will not cause the earth to swallow you while it shakes violently?

أَمْ أَمِنتُم مَّن فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ أَن يُرْسِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ حَاصِبًۭا ۖ فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ كَيْفَ نَذِيرِ

Am amintum man fis-samaaa'i ay yursila 'alaykum haasibaa; fasata'lamoona kayfa nadheer

Or are you confident that He in the heaven will not send upon you a storm of stones? Then you will know how My warning was.

وَلَقَدْ كَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ نَكِيرِ

Wa laqad kadhdhabal-ladheena min qablihim fakayfa kaana nakeer

Those before them also denied — so how terrible was My rejection!

أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ إِلَى ٱلطَّيْرِ فَوْقَهُمْ صَـٰٓفَّـٰتٍۢ وَيَقْبِضْنَ ۚ مَا يُمْسِكُهُنَّ إِلَّا ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍۭ بَصِيرٌ

Awalam yaraw ilat-tayri fawqahum saaaffaatiw wa yaqbidn; maa yumsikuhunna illar-Rahmaan; innahoo bikulli shay'im baseer

Do they not see the birds above them spreading and folding their wings? None holds them except the Most Merciful. He sees all things.

أَمَّنْ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى هُوَ جُندٌۭ لَّكُمْ يَنصُرُكُم مِّن دُونِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ۚ إِنِ ٱلْكَـٰفِرُونَ إِلَّا فِى غُرُورٍ

Amman haadhal-ladhee huwa jundul lakum yansurukum min doonar-Rahmaan; inil-kaafiroona illaa fee ghuroor

Who is this that could be an army to help you besides the Most Merciful? The disbelievers are only in delusion.

أَمَّنْ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى يَرْزُقُكُمْ إِنْ أَمْسَكَ رِزْقَهُۥ ۚ بَل لَّجُّوا۟ فِى عُتُوٍّۢ وَنُفُورٍ

Amman haadhal-ladhee yarzuqukum in amsaka rizqah; bal lajjoo fee 'utuwwiw-wa nufoor

Or who is it that could provide for you if He withheld His provision? Yet they persist in arrogance and aversion.

أَفَمَن يَمْشِى مُكِبًّا عَلَىٰ وَجْهِهِۦٓ أَهْدَىٰٓ أَمَّن يَمْشِى سَوِيًّا عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍۢ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ

Afamay yamshee mukibban 'alaa wajhihi ahdaa amm-ay yamshee sawiyyan 'alaa siraatim mustaqeem

Is one who walks with his face downcast better guided, or one who walks upright on a straight path?

قُلْ هُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنشَأَكُمْ وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلسَّمْعَ وَٱلْأَبْصَـٰرَ وَٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةَ ۖ قَلِيلًۭا مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ

Qul huwal-ladhee ansha'akum wa ja'ala lakumus-sam'a wal-absaara wal-af'idah; qaleelam maa tashkuroon

Say: It is He who created you and gave you hearing, sight, and hearts. How little are you grateful!

قُلْ هُوَ ٱلَّذِى ذَرَأَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ

Qul huwal-ladhee dhara'akum fil-ardi wa ilayhi tuhsharoon

Say: It is He who scattered you over the earth, and to Him you will be gathered.

وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَـٰذَا ٱلْوَعْدُ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ

Wa yaqooloona mataa haadhal-wa'du in kuntum saadiqeen

They ask: When will this promise come, if you are truthful?

قُلْ إِنَّمَا ٱلْعِلْمُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَإِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌ

Qul innamal-'ilmu 'indallaahi wa innamaaa ana nadheerum mubeen

Say: The knowledge is only with Allah, and I am only a clear warner.

فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ زُلْفَةًۭ سِيٓئَتْ وُجُوهُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَقِيلَ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَدَّعُونَ

Falammaa ra'awhu zulfatan see'at wujoohul-ladheena kafaroo wa qeela haadhal-ladhee kuntum bihee tadda'oon

When they see it approach, the faces of those who disbelieve will be distressed, and it will be said: This is what you used to call for.

قُلْ أَرَءَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَهْلَكَنِىَ ٱللَّهُ وَمَن مَّعِىَ أَوْ رَحِمَنَا فَمَن يُجِيرُ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

Qul ara'aytum in ahlakaniyallaahu wa mam ma'iya aw rahimanaa faman yujeerul-kaafireena min 'adhaab aleem

Say: Have you considered — if Allah destroys me and those with me, or has mercy on us, who can protect the disbelievers from a painful punishment?

قُلْ هُوَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ ءَامَنَّا بِهِۦ وَعَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْنَا ۖ فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ فِى ضَلَـٰلٍۢ مُّبِينٍ

Qul huwar-Rahmaanu aamannaa bihee wa 'alayhi tawakkalnaa; fasata'lamoona man huwa fee dalaaling mubeen

Say: He is the Most Merciful — we believe in Him and put our trust in Him. You will soon know who is in clear error.

قُلْ أَرَءَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَصْبَحَ مَآؤُكُمْ غَوْرًۭا فَمَن يَأْتِيكُم بِمَآءٍۢ مَّعِينٍۭ

Qul ara'aytum in asbahal-maa'ukum ghawran famayyaa'teekum bimaaa'im ma'een

Say: Have you considered — if your water were to sink into the ground, who then could bring you flowing water?
