Surah: As Saaffaat
الصّــافّات
Those Who Set The Ranks
37:1

By those [angels] lined up in rows
وَالصّٰٓفّٰتِ صَفًّا ۙ

37:2

And those who drive [the clouds]
فَالزّٰجِرٰتِ زَجْرًا ۙ

37:3

And those who recite the message,
فَالتّٰلِيٰتِ ذِكْرًا ۙ

37:4

Indeed, your God is One,
اِنَّ اِلٰهَكُمْ لَوَاحِدٌ ۗ

37:5

Lord of the heavens and the earth and that between them and Lord of the sunrises.
رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَرَبُّ الْمَشَارِقِ ۗ

37:6

Indeed, We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment of stars
اِنَّا زَيَّنَّا السَّمَآءَ الدُّنْيَا بِزِيْنَةِ لْكَوَاكِبِۙ

37:7

And as protection against every rebellious devil
وَحِفْظًا مِّنْ كُلِّ شَيْطٰنٍ مَّارِدٍۚ

37:8

[So] they may not listen to the exalted assembly [of angels] and are pelted from every side,
لَّا يَسَّمَّعُوْنَ اِلَى الْمَلَاِ الْاَعْلٰى وَيُقْذَفُوْنَ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍۖ

37:9

Repelled; and for them is a constant punishment,
دُحُوْرًا وَّلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَّاصِبٌ ۙ

37:10

Except one who snatches [some words] by theft, but they are pursued by a burning flame, piercing [in brightness].
اِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ الْخَطْفَةَ فَاَتْبَعَهٗ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ

37:11

Then inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Are they a stronger [or more difficult] creation or those [others] We have created?" Indeed, We created men from sticky clay.
فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ اَهُمْ اَشَدُّ خَلْقًا اَمْ مَّنْ خَلَقْنَاۗ اِنَّا خَلَقْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ طِيْنٍ لَّازِبٍ

37:12

But you wonder, while they mock,
بَلْ عَجِبْتَ وَيَسْخَرُوْنَۖ

37:13

And when they are reminded, they remember not.
وَاِذَا ذُكِّرُوْا لَا يَذْكُرُوْنَۖ

37:14

And when they see a sign, they ridicule
وَاِذَا رَاَوْا اٰيَةً يَّسْتَسْخِرُوْنَۖ

37:15

And say, "This is not but obvious magic.
وَقَالُوْۤا اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ ۚ

37:16

When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?
ءَاِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُـنَّا تُرَابًا وَّعِظَامًا ءَاِنَّا لَمَبْعُوْثُوْنَۙ

37:17

And our forefathers [as well]?"
اَوَاٰبَآؤُنَا الْاَوَّلُوْنَۗ

37:18

Say, "Yes, and you will be [rendered] contemptible."
قُلْ نَعَمْ وَاَنْـتُمْ دٰخِرُوْنَۚ

37:19

It will be only one shout, and at once they will be observing.
فَاِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَّاحِدَةٌ فَاِذَا هُمْ يَنْظُرُوْنَ

37:20

They will say, "O woe to us! This is the Day of Recompense."
وَقَالُوْا يٰوَيْلَنَا هٰذَا يَوْمُ الدِّيْنِ

37:21

[They will be told], "This is the Day of Judgement which you used to deny."
هٰذَا يَوْمُ الْفَصْلِ الَّذِىْ كُنْتُمْ بِهٖ تُكَذِّبُوْنَ

37:22

[The angels will be ordered], "Gather those who committed wrong, their kinds, and what they used to worship
اُحْشُرُوا الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا وَاَزْوَاجَهُمْ وَمَا كَانُوْا يَعْبُدُوْنَۙ

37:23

Other than Allah, and guide them to the path of Hellfire
مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ فَاهْدُوْهُمْ اِلٰى صِرَاطِ الْجَحِيْمِ

37:24

And stop them; indeed, they are to be questioned."
وَقِفُوْهُمْ اِنَّهُمْ مَّسْـُٔـوْلُوْنَۙ

37:25

[They will be asked], "What is [wrong] with you? Why do you not help each other?"
مَا لَـكُمْ لَا تَنَاصَرُوْنَ

37:26

But they, that Day, are in surrender.
بَلْ هُمُ الْيَوْمَ مُسْتَسْلِمُوْنَ

37:27

And they will approach one another blaming each other.
وَاَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰى بَعْضٍ يَّتَسَآءَلُوْنَ

37:28

They will say, "Indeed, you used to come at us from the right."
قَالُوْۤا اِنَّكُمْ كُنْتُمْ تَأْتُوْنَنَا عَنِ الْيَمِيْنِ

37:29

The oppressors will say, "Rather, you [yourselves] were not believers,
قَالُوْا بَلْ لَّمْ تَكُوْنُوْا مُؤْمِنِيْنَۚ

37:31

So the word of our Lord has come into effect upon us; indeed, we will taste [punishment].
فَحَقَّ عَلَيْنَا قَوْلُ رَبِّنَآ ۖ اِنَّا لَذَآٮِٕقُوْنَ

37:32

And we led you to deviation; indeed, we were deviators."
فَاَغْوَيْنٰكُمْ اِنَّا كُنَّا غٰوِيْنَ

37:33

So indeed they, that Day, will be sharing in the punishment.
فَاِنَّهُمْ يَوْمَٮِٕذٍ فِى الْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُوْنَ

37:34

Indeed, that is how We deal with the criminals.
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِالْمُجْرِمِيْنَ

37:35

Indeed they, when it was said to them, "There is no deity but Allah," were arrogant
اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْۤا اِذَا قِيْلَ لَهُمْ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُۙ يَسْتَكْبِرُوْنَۙ

37:36

And were saying, "Are we to leave our gods for a mad poet?"
وَيَقُوْلُوْنَ اَٮِٕنَّا لَتٰرِكُوْۤا اٰلِهَـتِنَا لِشَاعِرٍ مَّجْـنُوْنٍ ۗ

37:37

Rather, the Prophet has come with the truth and confirmed the [previous] messengers.
بَلْ جَآءَ بِالْحَقِّ وَصَدَّقَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ

37:38

Indeed, you [disbelievers] will be tasters of the painful punishment,
اِنَّكُمْ لَذَآٮِٕقُوا الْعَذَابِ الْاَلِيْمِۚ

37:39

And you will not be recompensed except for what you used to do
وَمَا تُجْزَوْنَ اِلَّا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَۙ

37:40

But not the chosen servants of Allah .
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ

37:41

Those will have a provision determined -
اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ لَهُمْ رِزْقٌ مَّعْلُوْمٌۙ

37:42

Fruits; and they will be honored
فَوَاكِهُۚ وَهُمْ مُّكْرَمُوْنَۙ

37:43

In gardens of pleasure
فِىْ جَنّٰتِ النَّعِيْمِۙ

37:44

On thrones facing one another.
عَلٰى سُرُرٍ مُّتَقٰبِلِيْنَ

37:45

There will be circulated among them a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring,
يُطَافُ عَلَيْهِمْ بِكَأْسٍ مِّنْ مَّعِيْنٍۢ ۙ

37:46

White and delicious to the drinkers;
بَيْضَآءَ لَذَّةٍ لِّلشّٰرِبِيْنَ ۚ

37:47

No bad effect is there in it, nor from it will they be intoxicated.
لَا فِيْهَا غَوْلٌ وَّلَا هُمْ عَنْهَا يُنْزَفُوْنَ

37:48

And with them will be women limiting [their] glances, with large, [beautiful] eyes,
وَعِنْدَهُمْ قٰصِرٰتُ الطَّرْفِ عِيْنٌۙ

37:49

As if they were [delicate] eggs, well-protected.
كَاَنَّهُنَّ بَيْضٌ مَّكْنُوْنٌ

37:50

And they will approach one another, inquiring of each other.
فَاَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰى بَعْضٍ يَّتَسَآءَلُوْنَ

37:51

A speaker among them will say, "Indeed, I had a companion [on earth]
قَالَ قَآٮِٕلٌ مِّنْهُمْ اِنِّىْ كَانَ لِىْ قَرِيْنٌۙ

37:52

Who would say, 'Are you indeed of those who believe
يَقُوْلُ اَءِ نَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُصَدِّقِيْنَ

37:53

That when we have died and become dust and bones, we will indeed be recompensed?'"
ءَاِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَّعِظَامًا ءَاِنَّا لَمَدِيْنُوْنَ

37:54

He will say, "Would you [care to] look?"
قَالَ هَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّطَّلِعُوْنَ

37:55

And he will look and see him in the midst of the Hellfire.
فَاطَّلَعَ فَرَاٰهُ فِىْ سَوَآءِ الْجَحِيْمِ

37:56

He will say, "By Allah, you almost ruined me.
قَالَ تَاللّٰهِ اِنْ كِدْتَّ لَـتُرْدِيْنِۙ

37:57

If not for the favor of my Lord, I would have been of those brought in [to Hell].
وَلَوْلَا نِعْمَةُ رَبِّىْ لَـكُنْتُ مِنَ الْمُحْضَرِيْنَ

37:58

Then, are we not to die
اَفَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَيِّتِيْنَۙ

37:59

Except for our first death, and we will not be punished?"
اِلَّا مَوْتَتَـنَا الْاُوْلٰى وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِيْنَ

37:60

Indeed, this is the great attainment.
اِنَّ هٰذَا لَهُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيْمُ

37:61

For the like of this let the workers [on earth] work.
لِمِثْلِ هٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ الْعٰمِلُوْنَ

37:62

Is Paradise a better accommodation or the tree of zaqqum?
اَذٰ لِكَ خَيْرٌ نُّزُلًا اَمْ شَجَرَةُ الزَّقُّوْمِ

37:63

Indeed, We have made it a torment for the wrongdoers.
اِنَّا جَعَلْنٰهَا فِتْنَةً لِّلظّٰلِمِيْنَ

37:64

Indeed, it is a tree issuing from the bottom of the Hellfire,
اِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٌ تَخْرُجُ فِىْۤ اَصْلِ الْجَحِيْمِۙ

37:65

Its emerging fruit as if it was heads of the devils.
طَلْعُهَا كَاَنَّهٗ رُءُوْسُ الشَّيٰطِيْنِ

37:66

And indeed, they will eat from it and fill with it their bellies.
فَاِنَّهُمْ لَاٰكِلُوْنَ مِنْهَا فَمٰلِــُٔــوْنَ مِنْهَا الْبُطُوْنَ ۗ

37:67

Then indeed, they will have after it a mixture of scalding water.
ثُمَّ اِنَّ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا لَشَوْبًا مِّنْ حَمِيْمٍۚ

37:68

Then indeed, their return will be to the Hellfire.
ثُمَّ اِنَّ مَرْجِعَهُمْ لَاۡاِلَى الْجَحِيْمِ

37:69

Indeed they found their fathers astray.
اِنَّهُمْ اَلْفَوْا اٰبَآءَهُمْ ضَآلِّيْنَۙ

37:70

So they hastened [to follow] in their footsteps.
فَهُمْ عَلٰٓى اٰثٰرِهِمْ يُهْرَعُوْنَ

37:71

And there had already strayed before them most of the former peoples,
وَلَـقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ اَكْثَرُ الْاَوَّلِيْنَۙ

37:72

And We had already sent among them warners.
وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا فِيْهِمْ مُّنْذِرِيْنَ

37:73

Then look how was the end of those who were warned -
فَانْظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُنْذَرِيْنَۙ

37:74

But not the chosen servants of Allah .
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ

37:75

And Noah had certainly called Us, and [We are] the best of responders.
وَلَقَدْ نَادٰٮنَا نُوْحٌ فَلَنِعْمَ الْمُجِيْبُوْنَۖ

37:76

And We saved him and his family from the great affliction.
وَنَجَّيْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗ مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيْمِۖ

37:77

And We made his descendants those remaining [on the earth]
وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهٗ هُمُ الْبٰقِيْنَ

37:78

And left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَۖ

37:79

"Peace upon Noah among the worlds."
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰى نُوْحٍ فِى الْعٰلَمِيْنَ

37:80

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ

37:81

Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.
اِنَّهٗ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ

37:82

Then We drowned the others [i.e., disbelievers]
ثُمَّ اَغْرَقْنَا الْاٰخَرِيْنَ

37:83

And indeed, among his kind was Abraham,
وَاِنَّ مِنْ شِيْعَتِهٖ لَاِبْرٰهِيْمَۘ

37:84

When he came to his Lord with a sound heart
اِذْ جَآءَ رَبَّهٗ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيْمٍ

37:85

[And] when he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?
اِذْ قَالَ لِاَبِيْهِ وَقَوْمِهٖ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُوْنَۚ

37:86

Is it falsehood [as] gods other than Allah you desire?
اَٮِٕفْكًا اٰلِهَةً دُوْنَ اللّٰهِ تُرِيْدُوْنَۗ

37:87

Then what is your thought about the Lord of the worlds?"
فَمَا ظَنُّكُمْ بِرَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَ

37:88

And he cast a look at the stars
فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِى النُّجُوْمِۙ

37:89

And said, "Indeed, I am [about to be] ill."
فَقَالَ اِنِّىْ سَقِيْمٌ

37:90

So they turned away from him, departing.
فَتَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِيْنَ

37:91

Then he turned to their gods and said, "Do you not eat?
فَرَاغَ اِلٰٓى اٰلِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ اَلَا تَأْكُلُوْنَۚ

37:92

What is [wrong] with you that you do not speak?"
مَا لَـكُمْ لَا تَنْطِقُوْنَ

37:93

And he turned upon them a blow with [his] right hand.
فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًۢا بِالْيَمِيْنِ

37:94

Then the people came toward him, hastening.
فَاَقْبَلُوْۤا اِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّوْنَ

37:95

He said, "Do you worship that which you [yourselves] carve,
قَالَ اَتَعْبُدُوْنَ مَا تَنْحِتُوْنَۙ

37:96

While Allah created you and that which you do?"
وَاللّٰهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ

37:97

They said, "Construct for him a furnace and throw him into the burning fire."
قَالُوا ابْنُوْا لَهٗ بُنْيَانًا فَاَلْقُوْهُ فِى الْجَحِيْمِ

37:98

And they intended for him a plan, but We made them the most debased.
فَاَرَادُوْا بِهٖ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنٰهُمُ الْاَسْفَلِيْنَ

37:99

And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.
وَقَالَ اِنِّىْ ذَاهِبٌ اِلٰى رَبِّىْ سَيَهْدِيْنِ

37:100

My Lord, grant me [a child] from among the righteous."
رَبِّ هَبْ لِىْ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ

37:101

So We gave him good tidings of a forbearing boy.
فَبَشَّرْنٰهُ بِغُلٰمٍ حَلِيْمٍ

37:102

And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, "O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think." He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast."
فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ السَّعْىَ قَالَ يٰبُنَىَّ اِنِّىْۤ اَرٰى فِى الْمَنَامِ اَنِّىْۤ اَذْبَحُكَ فَانْظُرْ مَاذَا تَرٰىۗ قَالَ يٰۤاَبَتِ افْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُۖ سَتَجِدُنِىْۤ اِنْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ مِنَ الصّٰبِرِيْنَ

37:103

And when they had both submitted and he put him down upon his forehead,
فَلَمَّاۤ اَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهٗ لِلْجَبِيْنِۚ

37:104

We called to him, "O Abraham,
وَنَادَيْنٰهُ اَنْ يّٰۤاِبْرٰهِيْمُۙ

37:105

You have fulfilled the vision." Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good
قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ الرُّءْيَا ۚ اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ

37:106

Indeed, this was the clear trial.
اِنَّ هٰذَا لَهُوَ الْبَلٰٓؤُا الْمُبِيْنُ

37:107

And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice,
وَفَدَيْنٰهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيْمٍ

37:108

And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَۖ

37:109

"Peace upon Abraham."
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰٓى اِبْرٰهِيْمَ

37:110

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ

37:111

Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.
اِنَّهٗ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ

37:112

And We gave him good tidings of Isaac, a prophet from among the righteous.
وَبَشَّرْنٰهُ بِاِسْحٰقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ

37:113

And We blessed him and Isaac. But among their descendants is the doer of good and the clearly unjust to himself.
وَبٰرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَعَلٰٓى اِسْحٰقَۗ وَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحْسِنٌ وَّظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهٖ مُبِيْنٌ

37:114

And We did certainly confer favor upon Moses and Aaron.
وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلٰى مُوْسٰى وَهٰرُوْنَۚ

37:115

And We saved them and their people from the great affliction
وَنَجَّيْنٰهُمَا وَقَوْمَهُمَا مِنَ الْكَرْبِ الْعَظِيْمِۚ

37:116

And We supported them so it was they who overcame.
وَنَصَرْنٰهُمْ فَكَانُوْا هُمُ الْغٰلِبِيْنَۚ

37:117

And We gave them the explicit Scripture,
وَاٰتَيْنٰهُمَا الْكِتٰبَ الْمُسْتَبِيْنَۚ

37:118

And We guided them on the straight path.
وَهَدَيْنٰهُمَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيْمَۚ

37:119

And We left for them [favorable mention] among later generations:
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِمَا فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَۙ

37:120

"Peace upon Moses and Aaron."
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰى مُوْسٰى وَهٰرُوْنَ

37:121

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ

37:122

Indeed, they were of Our believing servants.
اِنَّهُمَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ

37:123

And indeed, Elias was from among the messengers,
وَاِنَّ اِلْيَاسَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۗ

37:124

When he said to his people, "Will you not fear Allah ?
اِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهٖۤ اَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ

37:125

Do you call upon Ba'l and leave the best of creators -
اَتَدْعُوْنَ بَعْلًا وَّتَذَرُوْنَ اَحْسَنَ الْخٰلِقِيْنَۙ

37:126

Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers?"
اللّٰهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ اٰبَآٮِٕكُمُ الْاَوَّلِيْنَ

37:127

And they denied him, so indeed, they will be brought [for punishment],
فَكَذَّبُوْهُ فَاِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُوْنَۙ

37:128

Except the chosen servants of Allah .
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ

37:129

And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الْاٰخِرِيْنَۙ

37:130

"Peace upon Elias."
سَلٰمٌ عَلٰٓى اِلْ يَاسِيْنَ

37:131

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ

37:132

Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.
اِنَّهٗ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ

37:133

And indeed, Lot was among the messengers.
وَاِنَّ لُوْطًا لَّمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۗ

37:134

[So mention] when We saved him and his family, all,
اِذْ نَجَّيْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗۤ اَجْمَعِيْنَۙ

37:135

Except his wife among those who remained [with the evildoers].
اِلَّا عَجُوْزًا فِى الْغٰبِرِيْنَ

37:136

Then We destroyed the others.
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا الْاٰخَرِيْنَ

37:137

And indeed, you pass by them in the morning
وَاِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّوْنَ عَلَيْهِمْ مُّصْبِحِيْنَۙ

37:138

And at night. Then will you not use reason?
وَبِالَّيْلِۗ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ

37:139

And indeed, Jonah was among the messengers.
وَاِنَّ يُوْنُسَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۗ

37:140

[Mention] when he ran away to the laden ship.
اِذْ اَبَقَ اِلَى الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُوْنِۙ

37:141

And he drew lots and was among the losers.
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُدْحَضِيْنَۚ

37:142

Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy.
فَالْتَقَمَهُ الْحُوْتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيْمٌ

37:143

And had he not been of those who exalt Allah,
فَلَوْلَاۤ اَنَّهٗ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحِيْنَۙ

37:144

He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected.
لَلَبِثَ فِىْ بَطْنِهٖۤ اِلٰى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُوْنَۚ

37:145

But We threw him onto the open shore while he was ill.
فَنَبَذْنٰهُ بِالْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيْمٌۚ

37:146

And We caused to grow over him a gourd vine.
وَاَنْۢبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّنْ يَّقْطِيْنٍۚ

37:147

And We sent him to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more.
وَاَرْسَلْنٰهُ اِلٰى مِائَةِ اَلْفٍ اَوْ يَزِيْدُوْنَۚ

37:148

And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.
فَاٰمَنُوْا فَمَتَّعْنٰهُمْ اِلٰى حِيْنٍۗ

37:149

So inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?
فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ اَلِرَبِّكَ الْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ الْبَنُوْنَۙ

37:150

Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?"
اَمْ خَلَقْنَا الْمَلٰٓٮِٕكَةَ اِنَاثًا وَّهُمْ شٰهِدُوْنَ

37:151

Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say,
اَلَاۤ اِنَّهُمْ مِّنْ اِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُوْلُوْنَۙ

37:152

" Allah has begotten," and indeed, they are liars.
وَلَدَ اللّٰهُۙ وَاِنَّهُمْ لَـكٰذِبُوْنَ

37:153

Has He chosen daughters over sons?
اَصْطَفَى الْبَنَاتِ عَلَى الْبَنِيْنَۗ

37:154

What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?
مَا لَـكُمْۗ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُوْنَ

37:155

Then will you not be reminded?
اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُوْنَۚ

37:156

Or do you have a clear authority?
اَمْ لَـكُمْ سُلْطٰنٌ مُّبِيْنٌۙ

37:157

Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.
فَأْتُوْا بِكِتٰبِكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ

37:158

And they have claimed between Him and the jinn a lineage, but the jinn have already known that they [who made such claims] will be brought to [punishment].
وَجَعَلُوْا بَيْنَهٗ وَبَيْنَ الْجِنَّةِ نَسَبًا ۗ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمَتِ الْجِنَّةُ اِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُوْنَۙ

37:159

Exalted is Allah above what they describe,
سُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوْنَۙ

37:160

Except the chosen servants of Allah [who do not share in that sin].
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ

37:161

So indeed, you [disbelievers] and whatever you worship,
فَاِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَۙ

37:162

You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him
مَاۤ اَنْـتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفٰتِنِيْنَۙ

37:163

Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire.
اِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ الْجَحِيْمِ

37:164

[The angels say], "There is not among us any except that he has a known position.
وَمَا مِنَّاۤ اِلَّا لَهٗ مَقَامٌ مَّعْلُوْمٌۙ

37:165

And indeed, we are those who line up [for prayer].
وَّاِنَّا لَـنَحْنُ الصَّآفُّوْنَۚ

37:166

And indeed, we are those who exalt Allah ."
وَاِنَّا لَـنَحْنُ الْمُسَبِّحُوْنَ

37:167

And indeed, the disbelievers used to say,
وَاِنْ كَانُوْا لَيَقُوْلُوْنَۙ

37:168

"If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,
لَوْ اَنَّ عِنْدَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ الْاَوَّلِيْنَۙ

37:169

We would have been the chosen servants of Allah ."
لَـكُنَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الْمُخْلَصِيْنَ

37:170

But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.
فَكَفَرُوْا بِهٖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُوْنَ

37:171

And Our word has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,
وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ ۖ

37:172

[That] indeed, they would be those given victory
اِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ الْمَنْصُوْرُوْنَۖ

37:173

And [that] indeed, Our soldiers will be those who overcome
وَاِنَّ جُنْدَنَا لَهُمُ الْغٰلِبُوْنَ

37:174

So, [O Muhammad], leave them for a time.
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍۙ

37:175

And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.
وَاَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُوْنَ

37:176

Then for Our punishment are they impatient?
اَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَ

37:177

But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.
فَاِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ الْمُنْذَرِيْنَ

37:178

And leave them for a time.
وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍۙ

37:179

And see, for they are going to see.
وَّاَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُوْنَ

37:180

Exalted is your Lord, the Lord of might, above what they describe.
سُبْحٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ الْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوْنَۚ

37:181

And peace upon the messengers.
وَسَلٰمٌ عَلَى الْمُرْسَلِيْنَۚ

37:182

And praise to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
وَالْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَ
