| THIS CHAPTER consists of 52 verses arranged in seven sections which are all late Meccan, except for VV. 28 & 29 which date from Madina. It was revealed after Noah 71 and before Prophets 21. The chapter contains two parables, "Ashes in the Wind" (III) and "The Good and the Bad Tree" (IV). Abraham's famous prayer is found in section VI (VV. 3541); this is followed by a graphic picture of the Day of Reckoning with which the chapter ends. In the name of God, the Mercy-giving, the Merciful! (I) | ||
| 'Alif-Lām-Rā Kitābun 'Anzalnāhu 'Ilayka Litukhrija ۚ An-Nāsa Mina Až-Žulumāti 'Ilá An-Nūr Bi'idhni Rabbihim 'Ilá Şirāţi Al-`Azīzi Al-Ĥamīdi | 014-001* A. L. R. We have sent down a Book to you in order to bring men out of darkness into Light by their Lord's permission, towards the road of the Powerful, the Praiseworthy, | أَلِف-لَام-رَا كِتَابٌ أَنزَلْنَاهُ~ُ إِلَيْكَ لِتُخْرِجَ ۚ النَّاسَ مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّور بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَى صِرَاطِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ |
| Al-Lahi Al-Ladhī Lahu Mā Fī As-Samāwāti Wa Mā Fī Al-'Arđi ۗ Wa Waylun Lilkāfirīna Min `Adhābin Shadīdin | 014-002* God, Who holds whatever is in Heaven and whatever is on Earth. Alas, because disbelievers will have harsh torment, | اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَه ُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ ۗ وَوَيْل ٌ لِلْكَافِرِينَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ شَدِيدٍ |
| Al-Ladhīna Yastaĥibbūna Al-Ĥayāata Ad-Dunyā `Alá Al-'Ākhirati Wa Yaşuddūna `An Sabīli Al-Lahi Wa Yabghūnahā `Iwajāan ۚ 'Ūlā'ika Fī Đalālin Ba`īdin | 014-003* those who would rather have worldly life in preference to the Hereafter and obstruct God's way, seeking to make it crooked; those stray far afield. Moses' Mission | الَّذِينَ يَسْتَحِبُّونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا عَلَى الآخِرَةِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَنْ سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَيَبْغُونَهَا عِوَجا ً ۚ أُوْلَائِكَ فِي ضَلاَل ٍ بَعِيدٍ |

God lets anyone He wishes go astray, and guides anyone He wishes; He is the Powerful, the Wise. | وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلاَّ بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِه ِِ لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ ۖ فَيُضِلُّ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ |

In that are signs for every patient, grateful person." | وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مُوسَى بِآيَاتِنَا أَنْ أَخْرِجْ قَوْمَكَ مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ وَذَكِّرْهُمْ بِأَيَّامِ اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِكُلِّ صَبَّارٍ شَكُورٍ |

That was a serious trial from your Lord." (II) | وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَى لِقَوْمِهِ اذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ أَنجَاكُمْ مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوءَ الْعَذَابِ وَيُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَاءَكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَاءَكُمْ ۚ وَفِي ذَلِكُمْ بَلاَءٌ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ عَظِيمٌ |
| Wa 'Idh Ta'adhdhana Rabbukum La'in Shakartum La'azīdannakum ۖ Wa La'in Kafartum 'Inna `Adhābī Lashadīdun | 014-007* So your Lord announced: 'If you act grateful, I shall give you even more, while if you are thankless, then My torment will be severe." | وَإِذْ تَأَذَّنَ رَبُّكُمْ لَئِنْ شَكَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ ۖ وَلَئِنْ كَفَرْتُمْ إِنَّ عَذَابِي لَشَدِيدٌ |
| Wa Qāla Mūsá 'In Takfurū 'Antum Wa Man Fī Al-'Arđi Jamī`āan Fa'inna Al-Laha Laghanīyun Ĥamīdun | 014-008* Moses said: "Even if you and whoever is on earth should disregard it, God will still be Transcendent, Praiseworthy." | وَقَالَ مُوسَى إِنْ تَكْفُرُوا أَنْتُمْ وَمَنْ فِي الأَرْضِ جَمِيعا ً فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ حَمِيد ٌ |

Only God knows who they were. Messengers brought them explanations yet they merely stuffed their hands into their mouths and said: "We disbelieve in what you have been sent with. We are in suspicious doubt about what you are inviting us to do." | أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَأُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ قَوْمِ نُوحٍ وَعَادٍ وَثَمُودَ ۛ وَالَّذِينَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ ۛ لاَ يَعْلَمُهُمْ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ ۚ جَاءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَرَدُّوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَقَالُوا إِنَّا كَفَرْنَا بِمَا أُرْسِلْتُمْ بِه ِِ وَإِنَّا لَفِي شَكٍّ مِمَّا تَدْعُونَنَا إِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍ |

He invites you in order to forgive you some of your offences and to postpone things for you during a specific period." They said: "You are only human beings like ourselves! You want to divert us from what our forefathers have been worshipping, so bring us some clear authority." | قَالَتْ رُسُلُهُمْ أَفِي اللَّهِ شَكٌّ فَاطِرِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ ۖ يَدْعُوكُمْ لِيَغْفِرَ لَكُمْ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرَكُمْ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمّى ً ۚ قَالُوا إِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلاَّ بَشَرٌ مِثْلُنَا تُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَصُدُّونَا عَمَّا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا فَأْتُونَا بِسُلْطَانٍ مُبِينٍ |

It is not for us to bring you any authority except with God's permission. On God should believers rely." | قَالَتْ لَهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ إِنْ نَحْنُ إِلاَّ بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ يَمُنُّ عَلَى مَنْ يَشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِه ِِ ۖ وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا أَنْ نَأْتِيَكُمْ بِسُلْطَانٍ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۚ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ |

And so we may patiently endure how you persecute us? On God [Alone] should the reliant rely! (III) | وَمَا لَنَا أَلاَّ نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَقَدْ هَدَانَا سُبُلَنَا ۚ وَلَنَصْبِرَنَّ عَلَى مَا آذَيْتُمُونَا ۚ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ |

Their Lord [however] inspired them [as follows]: "We shall wipe out wrongdoers | وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِرُسُلِهِمْ لَنُخْرِجَنَّكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِنَا أَوْ لَتَعُودُنَّ فِي مِلَّتِنَا ۖ فَأَوْحَى إِلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ لَنُهْلِكَنَّ الظَّالِمِينَ |
| Wa Lanuskinannakumu Al-'Arđa Min Ba`dihim ۚ Dhālika Liman Khāfa Maqāmī Wa Khāfa Wa`īdi | 014-014* and settle you on the land to succeed them." That is [in store] for anyone who fears My position and fears My threat. Hell | وَلَنُسْكِنَنَّكُمُ الأَرْضَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ ۚ ذَلِكَ لِمَنْ خَافَ مَقَامِي وَخَافَ وَعِيدِ |
| Wa Astaftaĥū Wa Khāba Kullu Jabbārin `Anīdin | 014-015* They sought to conquer, and every stubborn oppressor blundered. | وَاسْتَفْتَحُوا وَخَابَ كُلُّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِيد ٍ |

Death will come at him from everywhere, while he will not quite die. Beyond him lies harsh torment. Ashes in the Wind | يَتَجَرَّعُه ُ وَلاَ يَكَادُ يُسِيغُه ُ وَيَأْتِيهِ الْمَوْتُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَمَا هُوَ بِمَيِّتٍ ۖ وَمِنْ وَرَائِه ِِ عَذَابٌ غَلِيظٌ |

They cannot do a thing with anything they have earned. That is going far afield! | مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِرَبِّهِمْ ۖ أَعْمَالُهُمْ كَرَمَادٍ اشْتَدَّتْ بِهِ الرِّيحُ فِي يَوْمٍ عَاصِفٍ ۖ لاَ يَقْدِرُونَ مِمَّا كَسَبُوا عَلَى شَيْءٍ ۚ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلاَلُ الْبَعِيدُ |
| 'Alam Tará 'Anna Al-Laha Khalaqa As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'Arđa Bil-Ĥaqqi ۚ 'In Yasha' Yudh/hibkum Wa Ya'ti Bikhalqin Jadīdin | 014-019* Have you not seen how God has really created Heaven and Earth? If He so wished, He would remove you and bring on a fresh creation. | أَلَمْ تَرَى أَنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ ۚ إِنْ يَشَأْ يُذْهِبْكُمْ وَيَأْتِ بِخَلْقٍ جَدِيدٍ |
| Wa Mā Dhālika `Alá Al-Lahi Bi`azīzin | 014-020* That is not unfeasible for God [to do]. | وَمَا ذَلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزِيز ٍ |

They will say: "If God had guided us, then we'd have guided you. It's all the same for us whether we panic or act patient; we'll have no escape." Blame is not Shifted (IV) | وَبَرَزُوا لِلَّهِ جَمِيعا ً فَقَالَ الضُّعَفَاءُ لِلَّذِينَ اسْتَكْبَرُوا إِنَّا كُنَّا لَكُمْ تَبَعا ً فَهَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُغْنُونَ عَنَّا مِنْ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ ۚ قَالُوا لَوْ هَدَانَا اللَّهُ لَهَدَيْنَاكُمْ ۖ سَوَاءٌ عَلَيْنَا أَجَزِعْنَا أَمْ صَبَرْنَا مَا لَنَا مِنْ مَحِيصٍ |

I have no authority over you except that I appealed to you, and you responded to me. Do not blame me but blame yourselves! I have no claim on you nor have you any claim on me. I disown how you have associated me [with God] up till now. Wrongdoers will have painful torment." | وَقَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ لَمَّا قُضِيَ الأَمْرُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَعَدَكُمْ وَعْدَ الْحَقِّ وَوَعَدْتُكُمْ فَأَخْلَفْتُكُمْ ۖ وَمَا كَانَ لِي عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ سُلْطَانٍ إِلاَّ أَنْ دَعَوْتُكُمْ فَاسْتَجَبْتُمْ لِي ۖ فَلاَ تَلُومُونِي وَلُومُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ ۖ مَا أَنَا بِمُصْرِخِكُمْ وَمَا أَنْتُمْ بِمُصْرِخِيَّ ۖ إِنِّي كَفَرْتُ بِمَا أَشْرَكْتُمُونِي مِنْ قَبْلُ ۗ إِنَّ الظَّالِمِينَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ |

Their greeting in it will be: "Peace!" The Good and the Bad Tree | وَأُدْخِلَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ ۖ تَحِيَّتُهُمْ فِيهَا سَلاَمٌ |

A good word may be compared to a good tree whose root is firm and whose branches soar up into the sky. | أَلَمْ تَرَى كَيْفَ ضَرَبَ اللَّهُ مَثَلا ً كَلِمَة ً طَيِّبَة ً كَشَجَرَة ٍ طَيِّبَةٍ أَصْلُهَا ثَابِتٌ وَفَرْعُهَا فِي السَّمَاءِ |

God composes parables for mankind so that they may be reminded. | تُؤْتِي أُكُلَهَا كُلَّ حِين ٍ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهَا ۗ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ |
| Wa Mathalu Kalimatin Khabīthatin Kashajaratin Khabīthatin Ajtuththat Min Fawqi Al-'Arđi Mā Lahā Min Qarārin | 014-026* A bad word may be compared to a bad tree: it will be uprooted from the face of the earth; it has no foothold. | وَمَثَلُ كَلِمَةٍ خَبِيثَة ٍ كَشَجَرَةٍ خَبِيثَة ٍ اجْتُثَّتْ مِنْ فَوْقِ الأَرْضِ مَا لَهَا مِنْ قَرَار ٍ |

God does whatever He wishes! (V) | يُثَبِّتُ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الآخِرَةِ ۖ وَيُضِلُّ اللَّهُ الظَّالِمِينَ ۚ وَيَفْعَلُ اللَّهُ مَا يَشَاءُ |

He brings forth produce by means of it as sustenance for you. He has subjected ships to you so they may sail at sea by His command; and subjected rivers to you. | اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَأَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاء ً فَأَخْرَجَ بِه ِِ مِنَ الثَّمَرَاتِ رِزْقا ً لَكُمْ ۖ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْفُلْكَ لِتَجْرِيَ فِي الْبَحْرِ بِأَمْرِه ِِ ۖ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الأَنهَارَ |
