  3. إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ٣

    Innaka laminal-mursalīn.

    Indeed you, [O Muḥammad], are from among the messengers,

  4. عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٖ مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ ٤

    ʿAlā ṣirāṭim mustaqīm.

    On a straight path.

  5. تَنزِيلَ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ٥

    Tanzīlal-ʿazīzir-raḥīm.

    [This is] a revelation of the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

  6. لِتُنذِرَ قَوۡمٗا مَّآ أُنذِرَ ءَابَآؤُهُمۡ فَهُمۡ غَٰفِلُونَ ٦

    Litundhira qawmam mā undhira ābāʾuhum fahum ghāfilūn.

    That you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are unaware.

  7. لَقَدۡ حَقَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَىٰٓ أَكۡثَرِهِمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ ٧

    Laqad ḥaqqal-qawlu ʿalā aktharihim fahum lā yuʾminūn.

    Already the word [i.e., decree] has come into effect upon most of them, so they do not believe.

  8. إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَا فِيٓ أَعۡنَٰقِهِمۡ أَغۡلَٰلٗا فَهِيَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَذۡقَانِ فَهُم مُّقۡمَحُونَ ٨

    Innā jaʿalnā fī aʿnāqihim aghlālan fahiya ilal-adhqāni fahum muqmaḥūn.

    Indeed, We have put shackles on their necks, and they are to their chins, so they are with heads [kept] aloft.

  9. وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ سَدّٗا وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ سَدّٗا فَأَغۡشَيۡنَٰهُمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُبۡصِرُونَ ٩

    Wa jaʿalnā mim bayni aydīhim saddaw wa min khalfihim saddan fa aghshaynāhum fahum lā yubṣirūn.

    And We have put before them a barrier and behind them a barrier and covered them, so they do not see.

  10. وَسَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَأَنذَرۡتَهُمۡ أَمۡ لَمۡ تُنذِرۡهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ ١٠

    Wa sawāʾun ʿalayhim aʾandhartahum am lam tundhirhum lā yuʾminūn.

    And it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.

  11. إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلذِّكۡرَ وَخَشِيَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنَ بِٱلۡغَيۡبِۖ فَبَشِّرۡهُ بِمَغۡفِرَةٖ وَأَجۡرٖ كَرِيمٍ ١١

    Innamā tundhiru manittabaʿadh-dhikra wa khashiyar-raḥmāna bil-ghayb, fabashshirhu bimaghfiratiw wa ajrin karīm.

    You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward.

  12. إِنَّا نَحۡنُ نُحۡيِ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ وَنَكۡتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُواْ وَءَاثَٰرَهُمۡۚ وَكُلَّ شَيۡءٍ أَحۡصَيۡنَٰهُ فِيٓ إِمَامٖ مُّبِينٖ ١٢

    Innā naḥnu nuḥyil-mawtā wa naktubu mā qaddamū wa āthārahum, wa kulla shayʾin aḥṣaynāhu fī imāmim mubīn.

    Indeed, it is We who bring the dead to life and record what they have put forth and what they left behind, and all things We have enumerated in a clear register.

  13. وَٱضۡرِبۡ لَهُم مَّثَلًا أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡقَرۡيَةِ إِذۡ جَآءَهَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ ١٣

    Waḍrib lahum mathalan aṣḥābal-qaryati idh jāʾahal-mursalūn.

    And present to them an example: the people of the city, when the messengers came to it -

  14. إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَآ إِلَيۡهِمُ ٱثۡنَيۡنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزۡنَا بِثَالِثٖ فَقَالُوٓاْ إِنَّآ إِلَيۡكُم مُّرۡسَلُونَ ١٤

    Idh arsalnā ilayhimuthnayni fakadhdhabūhumā faʿazzaznā bithālithin faqālū innā ilaykum mursalūn.

    When We sent to them two but they denied them, so We strengthened [them] with a third, and they said, "Indeed, we are messengers to you."

  15. قَالُواْ مَآ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُنَا وَمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ مِن شَيۡءٍ إِنۡ أَنتُمۡ إِلَّا تَكۡذِبُونَ ١٥

    Qālū mā antum illā basharum mithlunā wa mā anzalar-raḥmānu min shayʾin in antum illā takdhibūn.

    They said, "You are not but human beings like us, and the Most Merciful has not revealed a thing. You are only telling lies."

  16. قَالُواْ رَبُّنَا يَعۡلَمُ إِنَّآ إِلَيۡكُمۡ لَمُرۡسَلُونَ ١٦

    Qālū rabbunā yaʿlamu innā ilaykum lamursalūn.

    They said, "Our Lord knows that we are messengers to you,

  17. وَمَا عَلَيۡنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡبَلَٰغُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ ١٧

    Wa mā ʿalaynā illal-balāghul-mubīn.

    And we are not responsible except for clear notification."

  18. قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا تَطَيَّرۡنَا بِكُمۡۖ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهُواْ لَنَرۡجُمَنَّكُمۡ وَلَيَمَسَّنَّكُم مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٞ ١٨

    Qālū innā taṭayyarnā bikum, laʾil lam tantahū lanarjumannakum wa layamassannakum minnā ʿadhābun alīm.

    They said, "Indeed, we consider you a bad omen. If you do not desist, we will surely stone you, and there will surely touch you, from us, a painful punishment."

  19. قَالُواْ طَٰٓئِرُكُم مَّعَكُمۡ أَئِن ذُكِّرۡتُمۚ بَلۡ أَنتُمۡ قَوۡمٞ مُّسۡرِفُونَ ١٩

    Qālū ṭāʾirukum maʿakum aʾin dhukkirtum, bal antum qawmum musrifūn.

    They said, "Your omen [i.e., fate] is with yourselves. Is it1 because you were reminded? Rather, you are a transgressing people."

    Footnotes (1)
    1. Your threat against us.
  20. وَجَآءَ مِنۡ أَقۡصَا ٱلۡمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٞ يَسۡعَىٰ قَالَ يَٰقَوۡمِ ٱتَّبِعُواْ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ٢٠

    Wa jāʾa min aqṣal-madīnati rajuluy yasʿā qāla yāqawmittabiʿul-mursalīn.

    And there came from the farthest end of the city a man, running. He said, "O my people, follow the messengers.

  21. ٱتَّبِعُواْ مَن لَّا يَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ أَجۡرٗا وَهُم مُّهۡتَدُونَ ٢١

    Ittabiʿū mal lā yasʾalukum ajraw wa hum muhtadūn.

    Follow those who do not ask of you [any] payment, and they are [rightly] guided.

  22. وَمَالِيَ لَآ أَعۡبُدُ ٱلَّذِي فَطَرَنِي وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ ٢٢

    Wa mā liya lā aʿbudul-ladhī faṭaranī wa ilayhi turjaʿūn.

    And why should I not worship He who created me and to whom you will be returned?

  23. ءَأَتَّخِذُ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةً إِن يُرِدۡنِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ بِضُرّٖ لَّا تُغۡنِ عَنِّي شَفَٰعَتُهُمۡ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا يُنقِذُونِ ٢٣

    Aʾattakhidhu min dūnihī ālihatan iy yuridnir-raḥmānu biḍurril lā tughni ʿannī shafāʿatuhum shayʾaw wa lā yunqidhūn.

    Should I take other than Him [false] deities [while], if the Most Merciful intends for me some adversity, their intercession will not avail me at all, nor can they save me?

  24. إِنِّيٓ إِذٗا لَّفِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ ٢٤

    Innī idhal lafī ḍalālim mubīn.

    Indeed, I would then be in manifest error.

  25. إِنِّيٓ ءَامَنتُ بِرَبِّكُمۡ فَٱسۡمَعُونِ ٢٥

    Innī āmantu birabbikum fasmaʿūn.

    Indeed, I have believed in your Lord, so listen to me."

    It was said, "Enter Paradise."1 He said, "I wish my people could know

    Of how my Lord has forgiven me and placed me among the honored."

  1. ۞ وَمَآ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَىٰ قَوۡمِهِۦ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ مِن جُندٖ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا كُنَّا مُنزِلِينَ ٢٨

    Wa mā anzalnā ʿalā qawmihī mim baʿdihī min jundim minas-samāʾi wa mā kunnā munzilīn.

    And We did not send down upon his people after him any soldiers from the heaven, nor would We have done so.

    Yāḥasratan ʿalal-ʿibād, mā yaʾtīhim mir rasūlin illā kānū bihī yastahziʾūn.

    How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him.

  4. أَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ كَمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا قَبۡلَهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡقُرُونِ أَنَّهُمۡ إِلَيۡهِمۡ لَا يَرۡجِعُونَ ٣١

    Alam yaraw kam ahlaknā qablahum minal-qurūni annahum ilayhim lā yarjiʿūn.

    Illā raḥmatam minnā wa matāʿan ilā ḥīn.

    Except as a mercy from Us and provision for a time.

  18. وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّقُواْ مَا بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِيكُمۡ وَمَا خَلۡفَكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ ٤٥

    And when it is said to them, "Spend from that which Allāh has provided for you," those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Should we feed one whom, if Allāh had willed, He would have fed? You are not but in clear error."
