Surah Ash-Shu'ara: Arabic text, transliteration and translation

1. 26:1

   طسٓمٓ

   Taa-Seeen-Meeem

   Ṭâ-Sĩn-Mĩm.

2. 26:2

   تِلْكَ ءَايَـٰتُ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ ٱلْمُبِينِ

   Tilka Aayaatul Kitaabil Mubeen

   These are the verses of the clear Book.

3. 26:3

   لَعَلَّكَ بَـٰخِعٌ نَّفْسَكَ أَلَّا يَكُونُوا۟ مُؤْمِنِينَ

   La'allaka baakhi'un nafsaka allaa yakoonoo mu'mineen

   Perhaps you ˹O Prophet˺ will grieve yourself to death over their disbelief.

4. 26:4

   إِن نَّشَأْ نُنَزِّلْ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ ءَايَةً فَظَلَّتْ أَعْنَـٰقُهُمْ لَهَا خَـٰضِعِينَ

   In nashaa nunazzil 'alaihim minas samaaa'i Aayatan fazallat a'naaquhum lahaa khaadi'een

   If We willed, We could send down upon them a ˹compelling˺ sign from the heavens, leaving their necks bent in ˹utter˺ submission to it.

5. 26:5

   وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن ذِكْرٍ مِّنَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ مُحْدَثٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ عَنْهُ مُعْرِضِينَ

   Wa maa yaateehim min zikrim minar Rahmaani muhdasin illaa kaanoo 'anhu mu'rideen

   Whatever new reminder comes to them from the Most Compassionate, they always turn away from it.

6. 26:6

   فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوا۟ فَسَيَأْتِيهِمْ أَنۢبَـٰٓؤُا۟ مَا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ

   Faqad kazzaboo fasa yaateehim ambaaa'u maa kaanoo bihee yastahzi'oon

   They have certainly denied ˹the truth˺, so they will soon face the consequences of their ridicule.

7. 26:7

   أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَمْ أَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوْجٍ كَرِيمٍ

   Awa lam yaraw ilal ardi kam ambatnaa feehaa min kulli zawjin kareem

   Have they failed to look at the earth, ˹to see˺ how many types of fine plants We have caused to grow in it?

8. 26:8

   إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

   Inn fee zaalika la Aayah; wa maa kaana aksaruhum mu'mineen

   Surely in this is a sign. Yet most of them would not believe.

9. 26:9

   وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

   Wa inna Rabbaka la Huwal 'Azeezur Raheem

   And your Lord is certainly the Almighty, Most Merciful.

10. 26:10

    وَإِذْ نَادَىٰ رَبُّكَ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱئْتِ ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

    Wa iz naadaa Rabbuka Moosaaa ani'-til qawmaz zaalimeen

    ˹Remember˺ when your Lord called out to Moses, “Go to the wrongdoing people—

11. 26:11

    قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ أَلَا يَتَّقُونَ

    Qawma Fir'awn; alaa yattaqoon

    the people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear ˹Allah˺?”

12. 26:12

    قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ

    Qaala Rabbi inneee akhaafu ai yukazziboon

    He replied, “My Lord! I fear that they will reject me.

13. 26:13

    وَيَضِيقُ صَدْرِى وَلَا يَنطَلِقُ لِسَانِى فَأَرْسِلْ إِلَىٰ هَـٰرُونَ

    Wa yadeequ sadree wa laa yantaliqu lisaanee fa arsil ilaa Haaroon

    And ˹so˺ my heart will be broken and my tongue will be tied. So send Aaron along ˹as a messenger˺.

14. 26:14

    وَلَهُمْ عَلَىَّ ذَنۢبٌ فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقْتُلُونِ

    Wa lahum 'alaiya zambun fa akhaafu ai yaqtuloon

    Also, they have a charge against me, so I fear they may kill me.”

15. 26:15

    قَالَ كَلَّا ۖ فَٱذْهَبَا بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَآ ۖ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّسْتَمِعُونَ

    Qaala kallaa fazhabaa bi Aayaatinaaa innaa ma'akum mustami'oon

    Allah responded, “Certainly not! So go, both of you, with Our signs. We will be with you, listening.

16. 26:16

    فَأْتِيَا فِرْعَوْنَ فَقُولَآ إِنَّا رَسُولُ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

    Faatiyaa Fir'awna faqoolaaa innaa Rasoolu Rabbil 'aalameen

    Go to Pharaoh and say, ‘We are messengers from the Lord of all worlds

17. 26:17

    أَنْ أَرْسِلْ مَعَنَا بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ

    An arsil ma'anaa Baneee Israaa'eel

    ˹commanded to say:˺ ‘Let the Children of Israel go with us.’’”

18. 26:18

    قَالَ أَلَمْ نُرَبِّكَ فِينَا وَلِيدًا وَلَبِثْتَ فِينَا مِنْ عُمُرِكَ سِنِينَ

    Qaala alam nurabbika feenaa waleedanw wa labista feenaa min 'umurika sineen

    Pharaoh protested, “Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you stayed several years of your life in our care?

19. 26:19

    وَفَعَلْتَ فَعْلَتَكَ ٱلَّتِى فَعَلْتَ وَأَنتَ مِنَ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ

    Wa fa'alta fa'latakal latee fa'alta wa anta minal kaafireen

    Then you did what you did, being ˹utterly˺ ungrateful!”

20. 26:20

    قَالَ فَعَلْتُهَآ إِذًا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ

    Qaala fa'altuhaaa izanw wa ana minad daaaleen

    Moses replied, “I did it then, lacking guidance.

21. 26:21

    فَفَرَرْتُ مِنكُمْ لَمَّا خِفْتُكُمْ فَوَهَبَ لِى رَبِّى حُكْمًا وَجَعَلَنِى مِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ

    Fafarartu minkum lam maa khiftukum fawahaba lee Rabbee hukmanw wa ja'alanee minal mursaleen

    So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me wisdom and made me one of the messengers.

22. 26:22

    وَتِلْكَ نِعْمَةٌ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَىَّ أَنْ عَبَّدتَّ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ

    Wa tilka ni'matun tamun nuhaa 'alaiya an 'abbatta Baneee Israaa'eel

    How can that be a ‘favour,’ of which you remind me, when ˹it was only because˺ you ˹have˺ enslaved the Children of Israel?”

23. 26:23

    قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَا رَبُّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

    Qaala Fir'awnu wa maa Rabbul 'aalameen

    Pharaoh asked, “And what is ‘the Lord of all worlds’?”

24. 26:24

    قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ ۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ

    Qaala Rabbus samaawaati wal ardi wa maa bainahumaa in kuntum mooqineen

    Moses replied, “˹He is˺ the Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything in between, if only you had sure faith.”

25. 26:25

    قَالَ لِمَنْ حَوْلَهُۥٓ أَلَا تَسْتَمِعُونَ

    Qaala liman hawlahooo alaa tastami'oon

    Pharaoh said to those around him, “Did you hear ˹what he said˺?”

26. 26:26

    قَالَ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ

    Qaala Rabbukum wa Rabbu aabaaa'ikumul awwaleen

    Moses added, “˹He is˺ your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers.”

27. 26:27

    قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَكُمُ ٱلَّذِىٓ أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ لَمَجْنُونٌ

    Qaala inna Rasoolakumul lazee ursila ilaikum lamajnoon

    Pharaoh said ˹mockingly˺, “Your messenger, who has been sent to you, must be insane.”

28. 26:28

    قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَٱلْمَغْرِبِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ ۖ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

    Qaala Rabbul mashriqi wal maghribi wa maa baina humaa in kuntum ta'qiloon

    Moses responded: “˹He is˺ the Lord of the east and west, and everything in between, if only you had any sense.”

29. 26:29

    قَالَ لَئِنِ ٱتَّخَذْتَ إِلَـٰهًا غَيْرِى لَأَجْعَلَنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْمَسْجُونِينَ

    Qaala la'init takhazta ilaahan ghairee la aj'alannaka minal masjooneen

    Pharaoh threatened, “If you take any other god besides me, I will certainly have you imprisoned.”

30. 26:30

    قَالَ أَوَلَوْ جِئْتُكَ بِشَىْءٍ مُّبِينٍ

    Qaala awalw ji'tuka bishai'im mubeen

    Moses responded, “Even if I bring you a clear proof?”

31. 26:31

    قَالَ فَأْتِ بِهِۦٓ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ

    Qaala faati biheee in kunta minas saadiqeen

    Pharaoh demanded, “Bring it then, if what you say is true.”

32. 26:32

    فَأَلْقَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِىَ ثُعْبَانٌ مُّبِينٌ

    Fa alqaa 'asaahu fa izaaa hiya su'baanum mubeen

    So he threw down his staff and—behold!—it became a real snake.

33. 26:33

    وَنَزَعَ يَدَهُۥ فَإِذَا هِىَ بَيْضَآءُ لِلنَّـٰظِرِينَ

    Wa naza'a yadahoo faizaa hiya baidaaa'u linnaa zireen

    Then he drew his hand ˹out of his collar˺ and it was ˹shining˺ white for all to see.

34. 26:34

    قَالَ لِلْمَلَإِ حَوْلَهُۥٓ إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَسَـٰحِرٌ عَلِيمٌ

    Qaala lilmala-i hawlahooo inna haazaa lasaahirun 'aleem

    Pharaoh said to the chiefs around him, “He is indeed a skilled magician

35. 26:35

    يُرِيدُ أَن يُخْرِجَكُم مِّنْ أَرْضِكُم بِسِحْرِهِۦ فَمَاذَا تَأْمُرُونَ

    Yureedu ai yukhrijakum min ardikum bisihrihee famaazaa taamuroon

    who seeks to drive you from your land by his magic. So what do you propose?”

36. 26:36

    قَالُوٓا۟ أَرْجِهْ وَأَخَاهُ وَٱبْعَثْ فِى ٱلْمَدَآئِنِ حَـٰشِرِينَ

    Qaalooo arjih wa akhaahu wab'as filmadaaa'ini haashireen

    They replied, “Let him and his brother wait and dispatch mobilizers to all cities

37. 26:37

    يَأْتُوكَ بِكُلِّ سَحَّارٍ عَلِيمٍ

    Yaatooka bikulli sah haarin 'aleem

    to bring you every skilled magician.”

38. 26:38

    فَجُمِعَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ لِمِيقَـٰتِ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ

    Fa jumi'as saharatu limeeqaati Yawmim ma'loom

    So the magicians were assembled at the set time on the appointed day.

39. 26:39

    وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلْ أَنتُم مُّجْتَمِعُونَ

    Wa qeela linnaasi hal antum mujtami'oon

    And the people were asked, “Will you join the gathering

40. 26:40

    لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ ٱلسَّحَرَةَ إِن كَانُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبِينَ

    La'allanaa nattabi'us saharata in kaanoo humul ghaalibeen

    so that we may follow the magicians if they prevail?”

41. 26:41

    فَلَمَّا جَآءَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ قَالُوا۟ لِفِرْعَوْنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجْرًا إِن كُنَّا نَحْنُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبِينَ

    Falammaa jaaa'as saharatu qaaloo li Fir'awna a'inna lanaa la ajjran in kunnaa nahnul ghaalibeen

    When the magicians came, they asked Pharaoh, “Shall we have a ˹suitable˺ reward if we prevail?”

42. 26:42

    قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِذًا لَّمِنَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ

    Qaala na'am wa innakum izal laminal muqarrabeen

    He replied, “Yes, and you will then certainly be among those closest to me.”

43. 26:43

    قَالَ لَهُم مُّوسَىٰٓ أَلْقُوا۟ مَآ أَنتُم مُّلْقُونَ

    Qaala lahum Moosaaa alqoo maaa antum mulqoon

    Moses said to them, “Cast whatever you wish to cast.”

44. 26:44

    فَأَلْقَوْا۟ حِبَالَهُمْ وَعِصِيَّهُمْ وَقَالُوا۟ بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبُونَ

    Fa alqaw hibaalahum wa 'isiyyahum wa qaaloo bi'izzati Fir'awna innaa lanahnul ghaaliboon

    So they cast down their ropes and staffs, saying, “By Pharaoh’s might, it is we who will surely prevail.”

45. 26:45

    فَأَلْقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِىَ تَلْقَفُ مَا يَأْفِكُونَ

    Fa alqaa Moosaa 'asaahu fa izaa hiya talqafu maa yaafikoon

    Then Moses threw down his staff, and—behold!—it devoured the objects of their illusion!

46. 26:46

    فَأُلْقِىَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ سَـٰجِدِينَ

    Fa ulqiyas saharatu saajideen

    So the magicians fell down, prostrating.

47. 26:47

    قَالُوٓا۟ ءَامَنَّا بِرَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

    Qaalooo aamannaa bi Rabbil 'aalameen

    They declared, “We ˹now˺ believe in the Lord of all worlds—

48. 26:48

    رَبِّ مُوسَىٰ وَهَـٰرُونَ

    Rabbi Moosaa wa Haaroon

    the Lord of Moses and Aaron.”

49. 26:49

    قَالَ ءَامَنتُمْ لَهُۥ قَبْلَ أَنْ ءَاذَنَ لَكُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ ٱلَّذِى عَلَّمَكُمُ ٱلسِّحْرَ فَلَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ۚ لَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيْدِيَكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُم مِّنْ خِلَـٰفٍ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

    Pharaoh threatened, “How dare you believe in him before I give you permission? He must be your master who taught you magic, but soon you will see. I will certainly cut off your hands and feet on opposite sides, then crucify you all.”

50. 26:50

    قَالُوا۟ لَا ضَيْرَ ۖ إِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا مُنقَلِبُونَ

    Qaaloo la daira innaaa ilaa Rabbinaa munqalliboon

    They responded, “˹That would be˺ no harm! Surely to our Lord we will ˹all˺ return.

51. 26:51

    إِنَّا نَطْمَعُ أَن يَغْفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطَـٰيَـٰنَآ أَن كُنَّآ أَوَّلَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

    Innaa natma'u ai yaghfira lanaa Rabbunna khataa yaanaaa an kunnaaa awwalal mu'mineen

    We really hope that our Lord will forgive our sins, as we are the first to believe.”

52. 26:52

    ۞ وَأَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنْ أَسْرِ بِعِبَادِىٓ إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ

    Wa awhainaaa ilaa Moosaaa an asri bi'ibaadeee innakum muttaba'oon

    And We inspired Moses, ˹saying,˺ “Leave with My servants at night, for you will surely be pursued.”

53. 26:53

    فَأَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ فِى ٱلْمَدَآئِنِ حَـٰشِرِينَ

    Fa arsala Fir'awnu filmadaaa'ini haashireen

    Then Pharaoh sent mobilizers to all cities

54. 26:54

    إِنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَشِرْذِمَةٌ قَلِيلُونَ

    Inna haaa'ulaaa'i lashir zimatun qaleeloon

    ˹and said,˺ “These ˹outcasts˺ are just a handful of people

55. 26:55

    وَإِنَّهُمْ لَنَا لَغَآئِظُونَ

    Wa innahum lanaa laghaaa'izoon

    who have really enraged us

56. 26:56

    وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَـٰذِرُونَ

    Wa innaa lajamee'un haaziroon

    but we are all on the alert.”

57. 26:57

    فَأَخْرَجْنَـٰهُم مِّن جَنَّـٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ

    Fa akhrajnaahum min Jannaatinw wa 'uyoon

    So We lured the tyrants out of ˹their˺ gardens, springs

58. 26:58

    وَكُنُوزٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ

    Wa kunoozinw wa ma qaamin kareem

    treasures, and splendid residences.

59. 26:59

    كَذَٰلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَـٰهَا بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ

    Kazaalika wa awrasnaahaa Baneee Israaa'eel

    So it was. And We awarded it ˹all˺ to the Children of Israel.

60. 26:60

    فَأَتْبَعُوهُم مُّشْرِقِينَ

    Fa atba'oohum mushriqeen

    And so they pursued them at sunrise.

61. 26:61

    فَلَمَّا تَرَٰٓءَا ٱلْجَمْعَانِ قَالَ أَصْحَـٰبُ مُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّا لَمُدْرَكُونَ

    Falammaa taraaa'al jam'aani qaala as haabu Moosaaa innaa lamudrakoon

    When the two groups came face to face, the companions of Moses cried out, “We are overtaken for sure.”

62. 26:62

    قَالَ كَلَّآ ۖ إِنَّ مَعِىَ رَبِّى سَيَهْدِينِ

    Qaala kallaaa inna ma'iya Rabbee sa yahdeen

    Moses reassured ˹them˺, “Absolutely not! My Lord is certainly with me—He will guide me.”

63. 26:63

    فَأَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلْبَحْرَ ۖ فَٱنفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرْقٍ كَٱلطَّوْدِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ

    Fa awhainaaa ilaa Moosaaa anidrib bi'asaakal bahra fanfalaqa fakaana kullu firqin kattawdil 'azeem

    So We inspired Moses: “Strike the sea with your staff,” and the sea was split, each part was like a huge mountain.

64. 26:64

    وَأَزْلَفْنَا ثَمَّ ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ

    Wa azlafnaa sammal aakhareen

    We drew the pursuers to that place

65. 26:65

    وَأَنجَيْنَا مُوسَىٰ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ

    Wa anjainaa Moosaa wa mam ma'ahooo ajma'een

    and delivered Moses and those with him all together.

66. 26:66

    ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ

    Summa aghraqnal aakhareen

    Then We drowned the others.

67. 26:67

    إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

    Inna fee zaalika la Aayaah; wa maa kaana aksaru hu mu'mineen

    Surely in this is a sign. Yet most of them would not believe.

68. 26:68

    وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

    Wa inna Rabbaka la Huwal 'Azeezur Raheem

    And your Lord is certainly the Almighty, Most Merciful.

69. 26:69

    وَٱتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ

    Qaaloo na'budu asnaaman fanazallu lahaa 'aakifeen

    They replied, “We worship idols, to which we are fully devoted.”

72. 26:72

    قَالَ هَلْ يَسْمَعُونَكُمْ إِذْ تَدْعُونَ

    Qaala hal yasma'oona kum iz tad'oon

    Abraham asked, “Can they hear you when you call upon them?

73. 26:73

    أَوْ يَنفَعُونَكُمْ أَوْ يَضُرُّونَ

    Aw yanfa'oonakum aw yadurroon

    Or can they benefit or harm you?”

74. 26:74

    قَالُوا۟ بَلْ وَجَدْنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفْعَلُونَ

    Qaaloo bal wajadnaaa aabaaa 'anaa kazaalika yaf'aloon

    They replied, “No! But we found our forefathers doing the same.”

75. 26:75

164. 26:164

     وَمَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ ۖ إِنْ أَجْرِىَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

     Wa maaa as'alukum 'alaihi min ajrin in ajriya illaa 'alaa Rabbil 'aalameen

     I do not ask you for any reward for this ˹message˺. My reward is only from the Lord of all worlds.

165. 26:165

     أَتَأْتُونَ ٱلذُّكْرَانَ مِنَ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

     Ataatoonaz zukraana minal 'aalameen

     Why do you ˹men˺ lust after fellow men

166. 26:166

     وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّنْ أَزْوَٰجِكُم ۚ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ عَادُونَ

     Wa tazaroona maa khalaqa lakum Rabbukum min azwaajikum; bal antum qawmun 'aadoon

     leaving the wives that your Lord has created for you? In fact, you are a transgressing people.”

167. 26:167

     قَالُوا۟ لَئِن لَّمْ تَنتَهِ يَـٰلُوطُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلْمُخْرَجِينَ

     Qaloo la'il lam tantahi yaa Lootu latakoonanna minal mukhrajeen

     They threatened, “If you do not desist, O  Lot, you will surely be expelled.”

168. 26:168

     قَالَ إِنِّى لِعَمَلِكُم مِّنَ ٱلْقَالِينَ

     Qaala innee li'amalikum minal qaaleen

     Lot responded, “I am truly one of those who despise your ˹shameful˺ practice.

169. 26:169

     رَبِّ نَجِّنِى وَأَهْلِى مِمَّا يَعْمَلُونَ

     Rabbi najjjinee wa ahlee mimmmaa ya'maloon

     My Lord! Save me and my family from ˹the consequences of˺ what they do.”

170. 26:170

     فَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ

     Fanajjainaahu wa ahlahooo ajma'een

     So We saved him and all of his family

171. 26:171

     إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِى ٱلْغَـٰبِرِينَ

     Illaa 'ajoozan filghaabireen

     except an old woman, who was one of the doomed.

172. 26:172

     ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ

     Summa dammarnal aa khareen

     Then We utterly destroyed the rest

173. 26:173

     وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهِم مَّطَرًا ۖ فَسَآءَ مَطَرُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ

     Wa amtarnaa 'alaihim mataran fasaaa'a matarul munzareen

     pouring upon them a rain ˹of brimstone˺. How evil was the rain of those who had been warned!

174. 26:174

     إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

     Inna fee zaalika la Aayah; wa maa kaana aksaruhum mu'mineen

     Surely in this is a sign. Yet most of them would not believe.

175. 26:175

     وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

     Wa inna Rabbaka la Huwal 'Azeezur Raheem

     And your Lord is certainly the Almighty, Most Merciful.

176. 26:176

     كَذَّبَ أَصْحَـٰبُ لْـَٔيْكَةِ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ

     Kazzaba As haabul Aykatil mursaleen

     The residents of the Forest rejected the messengers

177. 26:177

     إِذْ قَالَ لَهُمْ شُعَيْبٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ

     Iz qaala lahum Shu'aybun alaa tattaqoon

     when Shu’aib said to them, “Will you not fear ˹Allah˺?

178. 26:178

     إِنِّى لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ

     Innee lakum Rasoolun ameen

     فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ

     Fattaqul laaha wa atee'oon

     So fear Allah, and obey me.

180. 26:180

     وَمَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ ۖ إِنْ أَجْرِىَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

     Wa maaa as'alukum 'alaihi min ajrin in ajriya illaa 'alaa Rabbil 'aalameen

     I do not ask you for any reward for this ˹message˺. My reward is only from the Lord of all worlds.

181. 26:181

     ۞ أَوْفُوا۟ ٱلْكَيْلَ وَلَا تَكُونُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْمُخْسِرِينَ

     Awful kaila wa laa takoonoo minal mukhsireen

     Give full measure, and cause no loss ˹to others˺.

182. 26:182

     وَزِنُوا۟ بِٱلْقِسْطَاسِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِ

     Wa zinoo bilqistaasil mustaqeem

     Weigh with an even balance

183. 26:183

     وَلَا تَبْخَسُوا۟ ٱلنَّاسَ أَشْيَآءَهُمْ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ

     Wa laa tabkhasun naasa ashyaaa 'ahum wa laa ta'saw fil ardi mufsideen

     and do not defraud people of their property. Nor go about spreading corruption in the land.

184. 26:184

     وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ وَٱلْجِبِلَّةَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ

     Wattaqul lazee khalaqakum waljibillatal awwaleen

     And fear the One Who created you and ˹all˺ earlier peoples.”

185. 26:185

     قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَحَّرِينَ

     Qaalooo innamaa anta minal musahhareen

     They replied, “You are simply bewitched!

186. 26:186

     وَمَآ أَنتَ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا وَإِن نَّظُنُّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلْكَـٰذِبِينَ

     Wa maaa anta illaa basharum mislunaa wa innazunnuka laminal kaazibeen

     Also, you are only a human being like us, and we think you are indeed a liar.

187. 26:187

     فَأَسْقِطْ عَلَيْنَا كِسَفًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ

     Fa asqit 'alainaa kisafam minas samaaa'i in kunta minas saadiqeen

     So cause ˹deadly˺ pieces of the sky to fall upon us, if what you say is true.”

188. 26:188

     قَالَ رَبِّىٓ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ

     Qaala Rabbeee a'lamu bimaa ta'maloon

     Shu’aib responded, “My Lord knows best whatever you do.”

189. 26:189

     فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمِ ٱلظُّلَّةِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ

     Fakazzaboohu fa akhazahum 'azaabu Yawmiz zullah; innahoo kaana 'azaaba Yawmin 'Azeem

     So they rejected him, and ˹so˺ were overtaken by the torment of the day of the ˹deadly˺ cloud. That was really a torment of a tremendous day.

190. 26:190

     إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

     Inna fee zaalika la Aayah; wa maa kaana aksaruhum mu'mineen

     Surely in this is a sign. Yet most of them would not believe.

191. 26:191

     وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

     Wa inna Rabbaka la huwal 'Azeezur Raheem

     And your Lord is certainly the Almighty, Most Merciful.

192. 26:192

     وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَنزِيلُ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

     Wa innahoo latanzeelu Rabbil 'aalameen

     This is certainly a revelation from the Lord of all worlds

193. 26:193

     نَزَلَ بِهِ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْأَمِينُ

     Nazala bihir Roohul Ameen

     which the trustworthy spirit ˹Gabriel˺ brought down

194. 26:194

     عَلَىٰ قَلْبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُنذِرِينَ

     'Alaa qalbika litakoona minal munzireen

     into your heart ˹O Prophet˺—so that you may be one of the warners—

195. 26:195

     بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِىٍّ مُّبِينٍ

     Bilisaanin 'Arabiyyim mubeen

     in a clear Arabic tongue.

196. 26:196

     وَإِنَّهُۥ لَفِى زُبُرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ

     Wa innahoo lafee Zuburil awwaleen

     And it has indeed been ˹foretold˺ in the Scriptures of those before.

197. 26:197

     أَوَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُمْ ءَايَةً أَن يَعْلَمَهُۥ عُلَمَـٰٓؤُا۟ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ

     Awalam yakul lahum Aayatan ai ya'lamahoo 'ulamaaa'u Baneee Israaa'eel

     Was it not sufficient proof for the deniers that it has been recognized by the knowledgeable among the Children of Israel?

198. 26:198

     وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَـٰهُ عَلَىٰ بَعْضِ ٱلْأَعْجَمِينَ

     Wa law nazzalnaahu 'alaa ba'dil a'jameen

     Had We revealed it to a non-Arab

199. 26:199

     فَقَرَأَهُۥ عَلَيْهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ مُؤْمِنِينَ

     Faqara ahoo 'alaihim maa kaanoo bihee mu'mineen

     who would then recite it to the deniers ˹in fluent Arabic˺, still they would not have believed in it!

200. 26:200

     كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكْنَـٰهُ فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ

     Kazaalika salaknaahu fee quloobil mujrimeen

     This is how We allow denial ˹to steep˺ into the hearts of the wicked.

201. 26:201

     لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِۦ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ

     Laa yu'minoona bihee hattaa yarawul 'azaabal aleem

     They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment

202. 26:202

     فَيَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ

     Fayaatiyahum baghtatanw wa hum laa yash'uroon

     which will take them by surprise when they least expect ˹it˺.

203. 26:203

     فَيَقُولُوا۟ هَلْ نَحْنُ مُنظَرُونَ

     Fa yaqooloo hal nahnu munzaroon

     Then they will cry, “Can we be allowed more time?”

204. 26:204

     أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ

     Aafabi 'azaabinaa yasta'jiloon

     Do they ˹really˺ seek to hasten Our torment?

205. 26:205

     أَفَرَءَيْتَ إِن مَّتَّعْنَـٰهُمْ سِنِينَ

     Aara'aita im matta'naahum sineen

     Imagine ˹O Prophet˺ if We allowed them enjoyment for years

206. 26:206

     ثُمَّ جَآءَهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يُوعَدُونَ

     Summa jaaa'ahum maa kaanoo yoo'adoon

     then there came to them what they had been threatened with:

207. 26:207

     مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يُمَتَّعُونَ

     Maaa aghnaaa 'anhum maa kaanoo yumaatoo'oon

     would that enjoyment be of any benefit to them ˹at all˺?

208. 26:208

     وَمَآ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا لَهَا مُنذِرُونَ

     Wa maaa ahlaknaa min qaryatin illaa lahaa munziroon

     We have never destroyed a society without warners

209. 26:209

     ذِكْرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَـٰلِمِينَ

     Zikraa wa maa kunnaa zaalimeen

     to remind ˹them˺, for We would never wrong ˹anyone˺.

210. 26:210

     وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتْ بِهِ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ

     Wa maa tanazzalat bihish Shayaateen

     It was not the devils who brought this ˹Quran˺ down:

211. 26:211

     وَمَا يَنۢبَغِى لَهُمْ وَمَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ

     Wa maa yambaghee lahum wa maa yastatee'oon

     it is not for them ˹to do so˺, nor can they

212. 26:212

     إِنَّهُمْ عَنِ ٱلسَّمْعِ لَمَعْزُولُونَ

     Innahum 'anis sam'i lama'zooloon

     for they are strictly barred from ˹even˺ overhearing ˹it˺.

213. 26:213

     فَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُعَذَّبِينَ

     Falaa tad'u ma'al laahi ilaahan aakhara fatakoona minal mu'azzabeen

     So do not ever call upon any other god besides Allah, or you will be one of the punished.

214. 26:214

     وَأَنذِرْ عَشِيرَتَكَ ٱلْأَقْرَبِينَ

     Wa anzir 'asheeratakal aqrabeen

     And warn ˹all, starting with˺ your closest relatives

215. 26:215

     وَٱخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

     Wakhfid janaahaka limanit taba 'aka minal mu'mineen

     and be gracious to the believers who follow you.

216. 26:216

     فَإِنْ عَصَوْكَ فَقُلْ إِنِّى بَرِىٓءٌ مِّمَّا تَعْمَلُونَ

     Fa in asawka faqul innee bareee'um mimmmaa ta'maloon

     But if they disobey you, say, “I am certainly free of what you do.”

217. 26:217

     وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

     Wa tawakkal alal 'Azeezir Raheem

     Put your trust in the Almighty, Most Merciful

218. 26:218

     ٱلَّذِى يَرَىٰكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ

     Allazee yaraaka heena taqoom

     Who sees you when you rise ˹for prayer at night˺

219. 26:219

     وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِى ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ

     Wa taqallubaka fis saajideen

     as well as your movements ˹in prayer˺ along with ˹fellow˺ worshippers.

220. 26:220

     إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

     Innahoo Huwas Samee'ul 'Aleem

     He ˹alone˺ is indeed the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

221. 26:221

     هَلْ أُنَبِّئُكُمْ عَلَىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ

     Hal unabbi'ukum 'alaa man tanazzalush Shayaateen

     Shall I inform you of whom the devils ˹actually˺ descend upon?

222. 26:222

     تَنَزَّلُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٍ

     Tanazzalu 'alaa kulli affaakin aseem

     They descend upon every sinful liar

223. 26:223

     يُلْقُونَ ٱلسَّمْعَ وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ كَـٰذِبُونَ

     Yulqoonas sam'a wa aksaruhum aaziboon

     who gives an ˹attentive˺ ear ˹to half-truths˺, mostly passing on sheer lies.

224. 26:224

     وَٱلشُّعَرَآءُ يَتَّبِعُهُمُ ٱلْغَاوُۥنَ

     Washshu 'araaa'u yattabi 'uhumul ghaawoon

     As for poets, they are followed ˹merely˺ by deviants.

225. 26:225

     أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّهُمْ فِى كُلِّ وَادٍ يَهِيمُونَ

     Alam tara annahum fee kulli waadiny yaheemoon

     Do you not see how they rant in every field

226. 26:226

     وَأَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ مَا لَا يَفْعَلُونَ

     Wa annahum yaqooloona ma laa yaf'aloon

     only saying what they never do?

227. 26:227

     إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ وَذَكَرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَٱنتَصَرُوا۟ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا ظُلِمُوا۟ ۗ وَسَيَعْلَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَىَّ مُنقَلَبٍ يَنقَلِبُونَ

     Illal lazeena aamanoo w a'amilus saalihaati wa zakarul laaha kaseeranw wantasaroo mim ba'di maa zulimoo; wa saya'lamul lazeena zalamooo aiya munqalbiny yanqaliboon

     Except those who believe, do good, remember Allah often, and ˹poetically˺ avenge ˹the believers˺ after being wrongfully slandered. The wrongdoers will come to know what ˹evil˺ end they will meet.
