Translation: Mufti Taqi Usmani  ·  Arabic: Indo-Pak script

27. An-Naml

27:56

فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوْمِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ قَالُوْۤا اَخْرِجُوْۤا اٰلَ لُوْطٍ مِّنْ قَرْیَتِكُمْ ۚ اِنَّهُمْ اُنَاسٌ یَّتَطَهَّرُوْنَ

So, the answer of his people was not else but that they said, “Expel the family of LūT from your town. They are a people who over-indulge in purity.”
27:57

فَاَنْجَیْنٰهُ وَاَهْلَهٗۤ اِلَّا امْرَاَتَهٗ ؗ قَدَّرْنٰهَا مِنَ الْغٰبِرِیْنَ

So, We saved him and his family, except his wife. We destined her to remain among those who stayed behind.
27:58

وَاَمْطَرْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ مَّطَرًا ۚ فَسَآءَ مَطَرُ الْمُنْذَرِیْنَ

And We rained on them a rain. So evil was the rain of those who were warned.
27:59

قُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ وَسَلٰمٌ عَلٰی عِبَادِهِ الَّذِیْنَ اصْطَفٰی ؕ ءٰٓاللّٰهُ خَیْرٌ اَمَّا یُشْرِكُوْنَ

Say, “Praise belongs to Allah, and peace be on those of His servants whom He has chosen.” Is Allah better or that which they associate (with Him as His partners)?
27:60

اَمَّنْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ وَاَنْزَلَ لَكُمْ مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً ۚ فَاَنْۢبَتْنَا بِهٖ حَدَآىِٕقَ ذَاتَ بَهْجَةٍ ۚ مَا كَانَ لَكُمْ اَنْ تُنْۢبِتُوْا شَجَرَهَا ؕ ءَاِلٰهٌ مَّعَ اللّٰهِ ؕ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ یَّعْدِلُوْنَ

Or the One who created the heavens and the earth and sent down for you water from the sky? Then We caused to grow with it gardens, full of glamour. It was not within your ability to grow their trees. Is there any god along with Allah? No, but they are a people who equate (others with Allah).
27:61

اَمَّنْ جَعَلَ الْاَرْضَ قَرَارًا وَّجَعَلَ خِلٰلَهَاۤ اَنْهٰرًا وَّجَعَلَ لَهَا رَوَاسِیَ وَجَعَلَ بَیْنَ الْبَحْرَیْنِ حَاجِزًا ؕ ءَاِلٰهٌ مَّعَ اللّٰهِ ؕ بَلْ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

Or the One who made the earth a place to settle and made rivers amidst it and made mountains for (making) it (firm), and made a barrier between two seas? Is there any god along with Allah? No, but most of them do not have knowledge.
27:62

اَمَّنْ یُّجِیْبُ الْمُضْطَرَّ اِذَا دَعَاهُ وَیَكْشِفُ السُّوْٓءَ وَیَجْعَلُكُمْ خُلَفَآءَ الْاَرْضِ ؕ ءَاِلٰهٌ مَّعَ اللّٰهِ ؕ قَلِیْلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُوْنَ

Or the One who responds to a helpless person when he prays to Him and removes distress, and who makes you vicegerents of the earth? Is there any god along with Allah? No, but little you heed to advice.
27:63

اَمَّنْ یَّهْدِیْكُمْ فِیْ ظُلُمٰتِ الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ وَمَنْ یُّرْسِلُ الرِّیٰحَ بُشْرًاۢ بَیْنَ یَدَیْ رَحْمَتِهٖ ؕ ءَاِلٰهٌ مَّعَ اللّٰهِ ؕ تَعٰلَی اللّٰهُ عَمَّا یُشْرِكُوْنَ

Or the One who guides you in depths of darkness on land and sea, and who sends the winds bearing good news before His mercy? Is there any god along with Allah? Allah is far higher than the partners they ascribe to Him.
27:64

اَمَّنْ یَّبْدَؤُا الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ یُعِیْدُهٗ وَمَنْ یَّرْزُقُكُمْ مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ ءَاِلٰهٌ مَّعَ اللّٰهِ ؕ قُلْ هَاتُوْا بُرْهَانَكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ

Or the One who originated creation, then will reproduce it, and who gives you provision from the sky and the earth? Is there any god along with Allah? Say, “Bring your proof if you are true.”
27:65

قُلْ لَّا یَعْلَمُ مَنْ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ الْغَیْبَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ ؕ وَمَا یَشْعُرُوْنَ اَیَّانَ یُبْعَثُوْنَ

Say, “No one in the heavens and the earth has the knowledge of the Unseen except Allah.” And they do not know when they will be raised again.
27:66

بَلِ ادّٰرَكَ عِلْمُهُمْ فِی الْاٰخِرَةِ ۫ بَلْ هُمْ فِیْ شَكٍّ مِّنْهَا ۫ؗ بَلْ هُمْ مِّنْهَا عَمُوْنَ

Rather, their knowledge has failed in respect of the Hereafter. Rather, they are in doubt about it. Rather, they are blind to it.
27:67

وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْۤا ءَاِذَا كُنَّا تُرٰبًا وَّاٰبَآؤُنَاۤ اَىِٕنَّا لَمُخْرَجُوْنَ

And said those who disbelieved, “Is it that, when we and our fathers become dust,-is it that we shall really be brought forth?
27:68

لَقَدْ وُعِدْنَا هٰذَا نَحْنُ وَاٰبَآؤُنَا مِنْ قَبْلُ ۙ اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّاۤ اَسَاطِیْرُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ

Indeed, it was promised to us and to our fathers even before this. This is nothing but the tales of the ancients.”
27:69

قُلْ سِیْرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوْا كَیْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُجْرِمِیْنَ

Say, “Travel in the land and see how was the fate of the sinners.”
27:70

وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَیْهِمْ وَلَا تَكُنْ فِیْ ضَیْقٍ مِّمَّا یَمْكُرُوْنَ

And do not grieve for them, nor should your heart be straitened because of what they plan.
27:71

وَیَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰی هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ

They say, “When shall this promise come to pass if you are true?”
27:72

قُلْ عَسٰۤی اَنْ یَّكُوْنَ رَدِفَ لَكُمْ بَعْضُ الَّذِیْ تَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَ

Say, “It is not unlikely that some part of that (punishment) which you are asking to come soon is already following you closely.”
27:73

وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُوْ فَضْلٍ عَلَی النَّاسِ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا یَشْكُرُوْنَ

And surely, your Lord is graceful for the mankind, but most of the people are not grateful.
27:74

وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَیَعْلَمُ مَا تُكِنُّ صُدُوْرُهُمْ وَمَا یُعْلِنُوْنَ

Of course, your Lord knows for sure what their hearts conceal and what they reveal.
27:75

وَمَا مِنْ غَآىِٕبَةٍ فِی السَّمَآءِ وَالْاَرْضِ اِلَّا فِیْ كِتٰبٍ مُّبِیْنٍ

There is nothing hidden in the heavens and the earth that is not (recorded) in a manifest book.
27:76

اِنَّ هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنَ یَقُصُّ عَلٰی بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ اَكْثَرَ الَّذِیْ هُمْ فِیْهِ یَخْتَلِفُوْنَ

Surely this Qur’ān mentions to the children of Isrā’īl most of the matters in which they dispute.
27:77

وَاِنَّهٗ لَهُدًی وَّرَحْمَةٌ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

It is guidance and mercy for the believers.
27:78

اِنَّ رَبَّكَ یَقْضِیْ بَیْنَهُمْ بِحُكْمِهٖ ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْعَلِیْمُ

And surely your Lord will decide between them by His judgment, and He is the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing.
27:79

فَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَی اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّكَ عَلَی الْحَقِّ الْمُبِیْنِ

So trust in Allah. Surely you are on the clear truth.
27:80

اِنَّكَ لَا تُسْمِعُ الْمَوْتٰی وَلَا تُسْمِعُ الصُّمَّ الدُّعَآءَ اِذَا وَلَّوْا مُدْبِرِیْنَ

Surely, you cannot make the dead to hear, nor can you make the deaf to hear your call when they turn their backs in retreat,
27:81

وَمَاۤ اَنْتَ بِهٰدِی الْعُمْیِ عَنْ ضَلٰلَتِهِمْ ؕ اِنْ تُسْمِعُ اِلَّا مَنْ یُّؤْمِنُ بِاٰیٰتِنَا فَهُمْ مُّسْلِمُوْنَ

nor can you show the right path to the blind against their wandering astray. You can make no one to listen (to you) except those who believe in Our verses, then submit themselves (to Allah).
27:82

وَاِذَا وَقَعَ الْقَوْلُ عَلَیْهِمْ اَخْرَجْنَا لَهُمْ دَآبَّةً مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ تُكَلِّمُهُمْ ۙ اَنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا لَا یُوْقِنُوْنَ

When the word will come to fall upon them, We will bring forth for them a beast from the earth who will speak to them that the human beings (i.e the infidels) did not believe in Our signs.
27:83

وَیَوْمَ نَحْشُرُ مِنْ كُلِّ اُمَّةٍ فَوْجًا مِّمَّنْ یُّكَذِّبُ بِاٰیٰتِنَا فَهُمْ یُوْزَعُوْنَ

And (remember) the day when We will gather from every nation a host of those who used to reject Our verses, and they will be kept under control.
27:84

حَتّٰۤی اِذَا جَآءُوْ قَالَ اَكَذَّبْتُمْ بِاٰیٰتِیْ وَلَمْ تُحِیْطُوْا بِهَا عِلْمًا اَمَّاذَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ

Until when they will come, He (Allah) will say, “Did you reject My verses while you did not comprehend them with knowledge, or what was it that you used to do?
27:85

وَوَقَعَ الْقَوْلُ عَلَیْهِمْ بِمَا ظَلَمُوْا فَهُمْ لَا یَنْطِقُوْنَ

And the Word will come to fall on them because of their transgression, so they will not (be able to) speak.
27:86

اَلَمْ یَرَوْا اَنَّا جَعَلْنَا الَّیْلَ لِیَسْكُنُوْا فِیْهِ وَالنَّهَارَ مُبْصِرًا ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یُّؤْمِنُوْنَ

Did they not see that We made the night, so that they may have rest in it, and (made) the day to make them see? Surely, in this there are signs for a people who believe.
27:87

وَیَوْمَ یُنْفَخُ فِی الصُّوْرِ فَفَزِعَ مَنْ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَنْ فِی الْاَرْضِ اِلَّا مَنْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ ؕ وَكُلٌّ اَتَوْهُ دٰخِرِیْنَ

And (remember) the day when the Horn will be blown; so all those in the heavens and the earth will be in panic, except those whom Allah wills. And All (of them) will come to Him in humility.
27:88

وَتَرَی الْجِبَالَ تَحْسَبُهَا جَامِدَةً وَّهِیَ تَمُرُّ مَرَّ السَّحَابِ ؕ صُنْعَ اللّٰهِ الَّذِیْۤ اَتْقَنَ كُلَّ شَیْءٍ ؕ اِنَّهٗ خَبِیْرٌ بِمَا تَفْعَلُوْنَ

And you see the mountains (at present) supposing them as fixed (forever), while (on that Day) they will fly like the flight of clouds - an act of Allah who has perfected every thing. Surely, He is All-Aware of what you do.
27:89

مَنْ جَآءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهٗ خَیْرٌ مِّنْهَا ۚ وَهُمْ مِّنْ فَزَعٍ یَّوْمَىِٕذٍ اٰمِنُوْنَ

Whoever will come with the good deed will have (a reward) better than that, and such people will be immune on that day from any panic.
27:90

وَمَنْ جَآءَ بِالسَّیِّئَةِ فَكُبَّتْ وُجُوْهُهُمْ فِی النَّارِ ؕ هَلْ تُجْزَوْنَ اِلَّا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ

And whoever will come with evil deed, the faces of such people will be thrown down into the Fire. You will not be recompensed but for what you used to do.
27:91

اِنَّمَاۤ اُمِرْتُ اَنْ اَعْبُدَ رَبَّ هٰذِهِ الْبَلْدَةِ الَّذِیْ حَرَّمَهَا وَلَهٗ كُلُّ شَیْءٍ ؗ وَّاُمِرْتُ اَنْ اَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ

I am but ordered to worship the Lord of this city, which is sanctified by Him. And to Him belongs every thing, and I am ordered to be one of the Muslims (who submit themselves to Allah),
27:92

وَاَنْ اَتْلُوَا الْقُرْاٰنَ ۚ فَمَنِ اهْتَدٰی فَاِنَّمَا یَهْتَدِیْ لِنَفْسِهٖ ۚ وَمَنْ ضَلَّ فَقُلْ اِنَّمَاۤ اَنَا مِنَ الْمُنْذِرِیْنَ

and to recite the Qur’ān; so whoever takes the right path, takes it for his own benefit. As for the one who goes astray, say (to him), “I am only one of the warners.”
27:93

وَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ سَیُرِیْكُمْ اٰیٰتِهٖ فَتَعْرِفُوْنَهَا ؕ وَمَا رَبُّكَ بِغَافِلٍ عَمَّا تَعْمَلُوْنَ

And say, “Praise belongs to Allah. He will show you His signs, then you will recognize them.” And your Lord is not unaware of what you do.

28. Al-Qasas

28:1

طٰسٓمّٓ

Tā Sīn Mīm.
28:2

تِلْكَ اٰیٰتُ الْكِتٰبِ الْمُبِیْنِ

These are verses of the clear Book.
28:3

نَتْلُوْا عَلَیْكَ مِنْ نَّبَاِ مُوْسٰی وَفِرْعَوْنَ بِالْحَقِّ لِقَوْمٍ یُّؤْمِنُوْنَ

We recite to you a part of the story of Mūsā and Pharaoh with truth for a people who believe.
28:4

اِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ عَلَا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَجَعَلَ اَهْلَهَا شِیَعًا یَّسْتَضْعِفُ طَآىِٕفَةً مِّنْهُمْ یُذَبِّحُ اَبْنَآءَهُمْ وَیَسْتَحْیٖ نِسَآءَهُمْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُفْسِدِیْنَ

Indeed, Pharaoh had become high-handed in the land, and had divided its people into different groups; he used to persecute a group of them, slaughtering their sons and keeping their women alive. Indeed he was one of the mischief-makers,
28:5

وَنُرِیْدُ اَنْ نَّمُنَّ عَلَی الَّذِیْنَ اسْتُضْعِفُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَنَجْعَلَهُمْ اَىِٕمَّةً وَّنَجْعَلَهُمُ الْوٰرِثِیْنَ

while We intended to favor those who were held as weak in the land, and to make them leaders and make them inheritors,
28:6

وَنُمَكِّنَ لَهُمْ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَنُرِیَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامٰنَ وَجُنُوْدَهُمَا مِنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا یَحْذَرُوْنَ

and give them power in the land, and to show Pharaoh, Hāmān and their armies the very thing they were fearing from them.
28:7

وَاَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلٰۤی اُمِّ مُوْسٰۤی اَنْ اَرْضِعِیْهِ ۚ فَاِذَا خِفْتِ عَلَیْهِ فَاَلْقِیْهِ فِی الْیَمِّ وَلَا تَخَافِیْ وَلَا تَحْزَنِیْ ۚ اِنَّا رَآدُّوْهُ اِلَیْكِ وَجَاعِلُوْهُ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِیْنَ

We inspired the mother of Mūsā saying, “Suckle him (Mūsā). Then once you fear about him, cast him in the river, and do not fear, and do not grieve. Surely We are going to bring him back to you and appoint him one of (Our) messengers.”
28:8

فَالْتَقَطَهٗۤ اٰلُ فِرْعَوْنَ لِیَكُوْنَ لَهُمْ عَدُوًّا وَّحَزَنًا ؕ اِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامٰنَ وَجُنُوْدَهُمَا كَانُوْا خٰطِـِٕیْنَ

So the family of Pharaoh picked him up, so that he becomes for them an enemy and a (cause of) grief. Indeed Pharaoh, Hāmān and their armies were mistaken.
28:9

وَقَالَتِ امْرَاَتُ فِرْعَوْنَ قُرَّتُ عَیْنٍ لِّیْ وَلَكَ ؕ لَا تَقْتُلُوْهُ ۖۗ عَسٰۤی اَنْ یَّنْفَعَنَاۤ اَوْ نَتَّخِذَهٗ وَلَدًا وَّهُمْ لَا یَشْعُرُوْنَ

And the wife of Pharaoh said, (to Pharaoh about Mūsā), “He may be a delight of eye for me and you. Do not kill him. It is hoped that he will be of benefit to us, or we will adopt him as a son.” And they were not aware (of what was going to happen).
28:10

وَاَصْبَحَ فُؤَادُ اُمِّ مُوْسٰی فٰرِغًا ؕ اِنْ كَادَتْ لَتُبْدِیْ بِهٖ لَوْلَاۤ اَنْ رَّبَطْنَا عَلٰی قَلْبِهَا لِتَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

And the heart of the mother of Mūsā became restless; indeed she was about to disclose this (the real facts about Mūsā), had We not strengthened her heart to remain among those who have firm belief (in Allah’s promise).
28:11

وَقَالَتْ لِاُخْتِهٖ قُصِّیْهِ ؗ فَبَصُرَتْ بِهٖ عَنْ جُنُبٍ وَّهُمْ لَا یَشْعُرُوْنَ

She said to his sister, “Keep track of him.” So she watched him from a distance, while they were not aware.
28:12

وَحَرَّمْنَا عَلَیْهِ الْمَرَاضِعَ مِنْ قَبْلُ فَقَالَتْ هَلْ اَدُلُّكُمْ عَلٰۤی اَهْلِ بَیْتٍ یَّكْفُلُوْنَهٗ لَكُمْ وَهُمْ لَهٗ نٰصِحُوْنَ

And We had already barred him (Mūsā) from (accepting) any suckling women, so she (his sister) said (to Pharaoh’s people), “Shall I point out to you a family who will nurse him for you, and they will be his well-wishers?”
28:13

فَرَدَدْنٰهُ اِلٰۤی اُمِّهٖ كَیْ تَقَرَّ عَیْنُهَا وَلَا تَحْزَنَ وَلِتَعْلَمَ اَنَّ وَعْدَ اللّٰهِ حَقٌّ وَّلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

Thus We brought him back to his mother, so that her eye might have comfort and she might not grieve, and so that she might know that Allah’s promise is true, but most of them do not know.
28:14

وَلَمَّا بَلَغَ اَشُدَّهٗ وَاسْتَوٰۤی اٰتَیْنٰهُ حُكْمًا وَّعِلْمًا ؕ وَكَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِی الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ

And when he reached his maturity and became perfect, We gave him wisdom and knowledge. This is how We reward those who are good in their deeds.
28:15

وَدَخَلَ الْمَدِیْنَةَ عَلٰی حِیْنِ غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ اَهْلِهَا فَوَجَدَ فِیْهَا رَجُلَیْنِ یَقْتَتِلٰنِ ؗۗ هٰذَا مِنْ شِیْعَتِهٖ وَهٰذَا مِنْ عَدُوِّهٖ ۚ فَاسْتَغَاثَهُ الَّذِیْ مِنْ شِیْعَتِهٖ عَلَی الَّذِیْ مِنْ عَدُوِّهٖ ۙ فَوَكَزَهٗ مُوْسٰی فَقَضٰی عَلَیْهِ ؗۗ قَالَ هٰذَا مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّیْطٰنِ ؕ اِنَّهٗ عَدُوٌّ مُّضِلٌّ مُّبِیْنٌ

Once he entered the city at a time when its people were heedless; so he found in it two men fighting each other: This one was from his own group, and that one from his enemies. So the one from his own group called him for help against the one who was from his enemies. So Mūsā gave him a blow with his fist and finished him off. (Then) He (Mūsā) said (out of remorse), “This is some of Satan’s act. He is indeed a clear enemy who misleads (people).”
28:16

قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّیْ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِیْ فَاغْفِرْ لِیْ فَغَفَرَ لَهٗ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الْغَفُوْرُ الرَّحِیْمُ

He said, “O my Lord, I have wronged myself, so forgive me.” So He forgave him. Indeed He is the most Forgiving, Very-Merciful.
28:17

قَالَ رَبِّ بِمَاۤ اَنْعَمْتَ عَلَیَّ فَلَنْ اَكُوْنَ ظَهِیْرًا لِّلْمُجْرِمِیْنَ

He (Mūsā) said, “O my Lord! As You have favored me, I will never be a supporter of the sinners.”
28:18

فَاَصْبَحَ فِی الْمَدِیْنَةِ خَآىِٕفًا یَّتَرَقَّبُ فَاِذَا الَّذِی اسْتَنْصَرَهٗ بِالْاَمْسِ یَسْتَصْرِخُهٗ ؕ قَالَ لَهٗ مُوْسٰۤی اِنَّكَ لَغَوِیٌّ مُّبِیْنٌ

Then next morning he was fearful in the city, waiting (for what comes next) when the man who sought his help the day before, shouted to him for help (again). Mūsā said to him, “You are surely a clear trouble-maker.”
28:19

فَلَمَّاۤ اَنْ اَرَادَ اَنْ یَّبْطِشَ بِالَّذِیْ هُوَ عَدُوٌّ لَّهُمَا ۙ قَالَ یٰمُوْسٰۤی اَتُرِیْدُ اَنْ تَقْتُلَنِیْ كَمَا قَتَلْتَ نَفْسًا بِالْاَمْسِ ۖۗ اِنْ تُرِیْدُ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ تَكُوْنَ جَبَّارًا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَمَا تُرِیْدُ اَنْ تَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُصْلِحِیْنَ

Thereafter when he intended to grasp at the one who was an enemy to both of them, he (i.e. the Israelite) said, “O Mūsā, do you want to kill me as you have killed a person yesterday? Your intention is only to become a tyrant in the land, and you do not intend to be one of the peace-makers.”
28:20

وَجَآءَ رَجُلٌ مِّنْ اَقْصَا الْمَدِیْنَةِ یَسْعٰی ؗ قَالَ یٰمُوْسٰۤی اِنَّ الْمَلَاَ یَاْتَمِرُوْنَ بِكَ لِیَقْتُلُوْكَ فَاخْرُجْ اِنِّیْ لَكَ مِنَ النّٰصِحِیْنَ

And there came a man running from the farthest part of the city. He said, “The chiefs are counseling each other about you, so that they kill you. So, leave (the city). I am one of your well-wishers.”
28:21

فَخَرَجَ مِنْهَا خَآىِٕفًا یَّتَرَقَّبُ ؗ قَالَ رَبِّ نَجِّنِیْ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

So, he went out of it (the city), looking around in a state of fear. He said, “O my Lord, save me from the cruel people.”
28:22

وَلَمَّا تَوَجَّهَ تِلْقَآءَ مَدْیَنَ قَالَ عَسٰی رَبِّیْۤ اَنْ یَّهْدِیَنِیْ سَوَآءَ السَّبِیْلِ

When he set out towards Madyan, he said, “I hope my Lord will guide me to the straight path”.
28:23

وَلَمَّا وَرَدَ مَآءَ مَدْیَنَ وَجَدَ عَلَیْهِ اُمَّةً مِّنَ النَّاسِ یَسْقُوْنَ ؗ۬ وَوَجَدَ مِنْ دُوْنِهِمُ امْرَاَتَیْنِ تَذُوْدٰنِ ۚ قَالَ مَا خَطْبُكُمَا ؕ قَالَتَا لَا نَسْقِیْ حَتّٰی یُصْدِرَ الرِّعَآءُ ٚ وَاَبُوْنَا شَیْخٌ كَبِیْرٌ

And when he arrived at the waters of Madyan, he found a large number of people watering (their animals) and found, aloof from them, two women keeping (their animals) back. He said, “What is the matter with you?” They said, “We cannot water (our animals) until these shepherds take (their animals) back after watering them, and our father is very old man.”
28:24

فَسَقٰی لَهُمَا ثُمَّ تَوَلّٰۤی اِلَی الظِّلِّ فَقَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّیْ لِمَاۤ اَنْزَلْتَ اِلَیَّ مِنْ خَیْرٍ فَقِیْرٌ

So he (Mūsā) watered (their animals) for them, then he turned to a shade and said, “My Lord, I am in need of whatever good you send down to me.”
28:25

فَجَآءَتْهُ اِحْدٰىهُمَا تَمْشِیْ عَلَی اسْتِحْیَآءٍ ؗ قَالَتْ اِنَّ اَبِیْ یَدْعُوْكَ لِیَجْزِیَكَ اَجْرَ مَا سَقَیْتَ لَنَا ؕ فَلَمَّا جَآءَهٗ وَقَصَّ عَلَیْهِ الْقَصَصَ ۙ قَالَ لَا تَخَفْ ۫ۥ نَجَوْتَ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

Then one of the two women came to him, walking bashfully. She said, “My father is calling you, so that he may give you a reward for watering our animals. So when he (Mūsā) came to him (the father of the women) and narrated to him the whole story, the latter said, “Do not fear; you have escaped from the wrongdoing people.”
28:26

قَالَتْ اِحْدٰىهُمَا یٰۤاَبَتِ اسْتَاْجِرْهُ ؗ اِنَّ خَیْرَ مَنِ اسْتَاْجَرْتَ الْقَوِیُّ الْاَمِیْنُ

One of the two women said, “Dear father, hire him; the best man you can hire is someone who is strong, trustworthy.”
28:27

قَالَ اِنِّیْۤ اُرِیْدُ اَنْ اُنْكِحَكَ اِحْدَی ابْنَتَیَّ هٰتَیْنِ عَلٰۤی اَنْ تَاْجُرَنِیْ ثَمٰنِیَ حِجَجٍ ۚ فَاِنْ اَتْمَمْتَ عَشْرًا فَمِنْ عِنْدِكَ ۚ وَمَاۤ اُرِیْدُ اَنْ اَشُقَّ عَلَیْكَ ؕ سَتَجِدُنِیْۤ اِنْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِیْنَ

He (the father) said (to Mūsā), “I wish to marry to you one of these two daughters of mine on condition that you act as my employee for eight years. Then if you complete ten (years) it will be of your own accord. And I do not want to put you in any trouble; you will find me, Inshā’allah (God-willing) one of the righteous.”
28:28

قَالَ ذٰلِكَ بَیْنِیْ وَبَیْنَكَ ؕ اَیَّمَا الْاَجَلَیْنِ قَضَیْتُ فَلَا عُدْوَانَ عَلَیَّ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ عَلٰی مَا نَقُوْلُ وَكِیْلٌ

He (Mūsā) said, “This is (done) between me and you. Whichever of the two terms I fulfill, there should be no excess against me, and Allah is witness to what we are saying.”
28:29

فَلَمَّا قَضٰی مُوْسَی الْاَجَلَ وَسَارَ بِاَهْلِهٖۤ اٰنَسَ مِنْ جَانِبِ الطُّوْرِ نَارًا ۚ قَالَ لِاَهْلِهِ امْكُثُوْۤا اِنِّیْۤ اٰنَسْتُ نَارًا لَّعَلِّیْۤ اٰتِیْكُمْ مِّنْهَا بِخَبَرٍ اَوْ جَذْوَةٍ مِّنَ النَّارِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَصْطَلُوْنَ

So, when Mūsā completed the term and set forth with his wife, he noticed a fire from the direction of (the mount) Tūr, he said to his wife, “Stay here; I have noticed a fire. May be I bring to you some information or an ember from the fire, so that you may warm yourself.”
28:30

فَلَمَّاۤ اَتٰىهَا نُوْدِیَ مِنْ شَاطِئِ الْوَادِ الْاَیْمَنِ فِی الْبُقْعَةِ الْمُبٰرَكَةِ مِنَ الشَّجَرَةِ اَنْ یّٰمُوْسٰۤی اِنِّیْۤ اَنَا اللّٰهُ رَبُّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ

So when he came to it, he was called by a voice coming from a side of the right valley in the blessed ground, from the tree, saying, “O Mūsā, I AM ALLAH, the Lord of the worlds,”
28:31

وَاَنْ اَلْقِ عَصَاكَ ؕ فَلَمَّا رَاٰهَا تَهْتَزُّ كَاَنَّهَا جَآنٌّ وَّلّٰی مُدْبِرًا وَّلَمْ یُعَقِّبْ ؕ یٰمُوْسٰۤی اَقْبِلْ وَلَا تَخَفْ ۫ اِنَّكَ مِنَ الْاٰمِنِیْنَ

and saying, “Throw down your staff.” So when he saw it moving as if it were a snake, he turned back in retreat, and did not look back. (Allah said to him), “O Mūsā come forward and do not fear; you are one of those in peace.
28:32

اُسْلُكْ یَدَكَ فِیْ جَیْبِكَ تَخْرُجْ بَیْضَآءَ مِنْ غَیْرِ سُوْٓءٍ ؗ وَّاضْمُمْ اِلَیْكَ جَنَاحَكَ مِنَ الرَّهْبِ فَذٰنِكَ بُرْهَانٰنِ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ اِلٰی فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَاۡىِٕهٖ ؕ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمًا فٰسِقِیْنَ

Insert your hand into your bosom, and it will come out white without any evil (disease), and press your arm to your side for (removing) fear. Thus these are two proofs from your Lord (sent) to Pharaoh and his chiefs. Indeed they are transgressing people.”
28:33

قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّیْ قَتَلْتُ مِنْهُمْ نَفْسًا فَاَخَافُ اَنْ یَّقْتُلُوْنِ

He said, “My Lord, I have killed a person from them, therefore I fear that they will kill me.
28:34

وَاَخِیْ هٰرُوْنُ هُوَ اَفْصَحُ مِنِّیْ لِسَانًا فَاَرْسِلْهُ مَعِیَ رِدْاً یُّصَدِّقُنِیْۤ ؗ اِنِّیْۤ اَخَافُ اَنْ یُّكَذِّبُوْنِ

And my brother Hārūn is more eloquent than me in speech; so send him with me as a helper to bear me out. I am afraid, they will give the lie to me.”
28:35

قَالَ سَنَشُدُّ عَضُدَكَ بِاَخِیْكَ وَنَجْعَلُ لَكُمَا سُلْطٰنًا فَلَا یَصِلُوْنَ اِلَیْكُمَا ۛۚ بِاٰیٰتِنَاۤ ۛۚ اَنْتُمَا وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَكُمَا الْغٰلِبُوْنَ

He (Allah) said, “We will strengthen your arm with your brother, and will give both of you such a power that they will have no access to you (to cause any harm) because of Our signs. You and your followers will be the victors.”
28:36

فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمْ مُّوْسٰی بِاٰیٰتِنَا بَیِّنٰتٍ قَالُوْا مَا هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّفْتَرًی وَّمَا سَمِعْنَا بِهٰذَا فِیْۤ اٰبَآىِٕنَا الْاَوَّلِیْنَ

So when Mūsā came to them with Our clear signs, they said, “This is nothing but a forged magic, and we have never heard of such a thing happening in the days of our forefathers.”
28:37

وَقَالَ مُوْسٰی رَبِّیْۤ اَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ جَآءَ بِالْهُدٰی مِنْ عِنْدِهٖ وَمَنْ تَكُوْنُ لَهٗ عَاقِبَةُ الدَّارِ ؕ اِنَّهٗ لَا یُفْلِحُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ

Mūsā said, “My Lord is best aware of the one who has brought guidance from Him and who is going to meet the best end of the abode. It is certain that the wrongdoers will not succeed.”
28:38

وَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ یٰۤاَیُّهَا الْمَلَاُ مَا عَلِمْتُ لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَیْرِیْ ۚ فَاَوْقِدْ لِیْ یٰهَامٰنُ عَلَی الطِّیْنِ فَاجْعَلْ لِّیْ صَرْحًا لَّعَلِّیْۤ اَطَّلِعُ اِلٰۤی اِلٰهِ مُوْسٰی ۙ وَاِنِّیْ لَاَظُنُّهٗ مِنَ الْكٰذِبِیْنَ

And Pharaoh said (to his people,) “O courtiers, I do not recognize any god for you other than me. So kindle for me, O Hāmān, a fire on the clay (to bake bricks) and build for me a tower, so that I may look on to the God of Mūsā. I deem him to be one of the liars.”
28:39

وَاسْتَكْبَرَ هُوَ وَجُنُوْدُهٗ فِی الْاَرْضِ بِغَیْرِ الْحَقِّ وَظَنُّوْۤا اَنَّهُمْ اِلَیْنَا لَا یُرْجَعُوْنَ

(Thus) he and his hosts showed arrogance in the land with no justification and thought that they would not be returned to Us.
28:40

فَاَخَذْنٰهُ وَجُنُوْدَهٗ فَنَبَذْنٰهُمْ فِی الْیَمِّ ۚ فَانْظُرْ كَیْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

So We seized him and his hosts and threw them into the sea. Look then, how was the fate of the wrongdoers.
28:41

وَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَىِٕمَّةً یَّدْعُوْنَ اِلَی النَّارِ ۚ وَیَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ لَا یُنْصَرُوْنَ

We made them leaders who called (people) towards hell; and on the Day of Judgment, they will not be helped.
28:42

وَاَتْبَعْنٰهُمْ فِیْ هٰذِهِ الدُّنْیَا لَعْنَةً ۚ وَیَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ هُمْ مِّنَ الْمَقْبُوْحِیْنَ

And We made a curse to pursue them in this world; and on the Day of Judgment they will be among those dejected.
28:43

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسَی الْكِتٰبَ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَاۤ اَهْلَكْنَا الْقُرُوْنَ الْاُوْلٰی بَصَآىِٕرَ لِلنَّاسِ وَهُدًی وَّرَحْمَةً لَّعَلَّهُمْ یَتَذَكَّرُوْنَ

And We gave Mūsā, after We destroyed the earlier generations, the Book having insights for people and a guidance and mercy, so that they may receive the advice.
28:44

وَمَا كُنْتَ بِجَانِبِ الْغَرْبِیِّ اِذْ قَضَیْنَاۤ اِلٰی مُوْسَی الْاَمْرَ وَمَا كُنْتَ مِنَ الشّٰهِدِیْنَ

And (O prophet,) you were not there at the Western side (of the mount Tūr) when We delegated the matter to Mūsā, nor were you among those present,
28:45

وَلٰكِنَّاۤ اَنْشَاْنَا قُرُوْنًا فَتَطَاوَلَ عَلَیْهِمُ الْعُمُرُ ۚ وَمَا كُنْتَ ثَاوِیًا فِیْۤ اَهْلِ مَدْیَنَ تَتْلُوْا عَلَیْهِمْ اٰیٰتِنَا ۙ وَلٰكِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِیْنَ

but We created generations (after him) and a long time passed over them. And you were not dwelling among the people of Madyan, reciting Our verses to them, but it is We who do send messengers.
28:46

وَمَا كُنْتَ بِجَانِبِ الطُّوْرِ اِذْ نَادَیْنَا وَلٰكِنْ رَّحْمَةً مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ لِتُنْذِرَ قَوْمًا مَّاۤ اَتٰىهُمْ مِّنْ نَّذِیْرٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَتَذَكَّرُوْنَ

And you were not at the side of (the mount) Tūr when We called (Mūsā), but it (your prophet-hood through which you knew all this) is a mercy from your Lord, so that you warn a people to whom no warner has come before you, that they may receive the advice.
28:47

وَلَوْلَاۤ اَنْ تُصِیْبَهُمْ مُّصِیْبَةٌ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ اَیْدِیْهِمْ فَیَقُوْلُوْا رَبَّنَا لَوْلَاۤ اَرْسَلْتَ اِلَیْنَا رَسُوْلًا فَنَتَّبِعَ اٰیٰتِكَ وَنَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

And (We have sent you as a messenger) lest, in case they suffered a calamity because of what their hands sent ahead, they should say, “Our Lord, why did You not send a messenger to us, so that we might have followed your verses and been among the believers?”
28:48

فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ عِنْدِنَا قَالُوْا لَوْلَاۤ اُوْتِیَ مِثْلَ مَاۤ اُوْتِیَ مُوْسٰی ؕ اَوَلَمْ یَكْفُرُوْا بِمَاۤ اُوْتِیَ مُوْسٰی مِنْ قَبْلُ ۚ قَالُوْا سِحْرٰنِ تَظٰهَرَا ۥ۫ وَقَالُوْۤا اِنَّا بِكُلٍّ كٰفِرُوْنَ

But when the Truth came to them from Us, they said, “Why has he (the messenger) not been given (a book) similar to what Mūsā had been given?” Is it not that they denied what Mūsā had been given before? They said, “Both (Qur’ān and Torah) are works of magic that support each other.” And they said, “We disbelieve each one of them.”
28:49

قُلْ فَاْتُوْا بِكِتٰبٍ مِّنْ عِنْدِ اللّٰهِ هُوَ اَهْدٰی مِنْهُمَاۤ اَتَّبِعْهُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ

Say, “Then bring a book from Allah which is better than both, in guidance, and I shall follow it, if you are true.”
28:50

فَاِنْ لَّمْ یَسْتَجِیْبُوْا لَكَ فَاعْلَمْ اَنَّمَا یَتَّبِعُوْنَ اَهْوَآءَهُمْ ؕ وَمَنْ اَضَلُّ مِمَّنِ اتَّبَعَ هَوٰىهُ بِغَیْرِ هُدًی مِّنَ اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یَهْدِی الْقَوْمَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

So if they do not respond to you, be sure that they are only following their desires. And who is more astray than the one who follows his desire without guidance from Allah. Surely Allah does not take the wrongdoing people onto the right path.
28:51

وَلَقَدْ وَصَّلْنَا لَهُمُ الْقَوْلَ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَتَذَكَّرُوْنَ

And We have conveyed (Our) word to them one after the other, so that they may receive the advice.
28:52

اَلَّذِیْنَ اٰتَیْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ مِنْ قَبْلِهٖ هُمْ بِهٖ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ

As for those to whom We gave the Book before this, they believe in it (Qur’ān).
28:53

وَاِذَا یُتْلٰی عَلَیْهِمْ قَالُوْۤا اٰمَنَّا بِهٖۤ اِنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّنَاۤ اِنَّا كُنَّا مِنْ قَبْلِهٖ مُسْلِمِیْنَ

And when this (Qur’ān) is recited to them, they say, “We believe in it. It is the truth from our Lord, and we are the ones who had submitted (to it) even before it (was revealed).”
28:54

اُولٰٓىِٕكَ یُؤْتَوْنَ اَجْرَهُمْ مَّرَّتَیْنِ بِمَا صَبَرُوْا وَیَدْرَءُوْنَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ السَّیِّئَةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنٰهُمْ یُنْفِقُوْنَ

Such people will be given their reward twice, because they observed patience. And they repel evil with good, and spend from what We have given to them.
28:55

وَاِذَا سَمِعُوا اللَّغْوَ اَعْرَضُوْا عَنْهُ وَقَالُوْا لَنَاۤ اَعْمَالُنَا وَلَكُمْ اَعْمَالُكُمْ ؗ سَلٰمٌ عَلَیْكُمْ ؗ لَا نَبْتَغِی الْجٰهِلِیْنَ

And when they hear absurd talk, they withdraw from it and say, “Our deeds are for us and your deeds are for you. Peace be on you. We do not desire (to be entangled with) the ignorant people.”
28:56

اِنَّكَ لَا تَهْدِیْ مَنْ اَحْبَبْتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَهْدِیْ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ۚ وَهُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِیْنَ

You cannot give guidance to whomsoever you wish, but Allah gives guidance to whomsoever He wills, and He best knows the ones who are on the right path.
28:57

وَقَالُوْۤا اِنْ نَّتَّبِعِ الْهُدٰی مَعَكَ نُتَخَطَّفْ مِنْ اَرْضِنَا ؕ اَوَلَمْ نُمَكِّنْ لَّهُمْ حَرَمًا اٰمِنًا یُّجْبٰۤی اِلَیْهِ ثَمَرٰتُ كُلِّ شَیْءٍ رِّزْقًا مِّنْ لَّدُنَّا وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

They said, “If we follow the guidance with you (O Muhammad), we will be driven out of our land.” Is it not that We have established them in the peaceful Haram (sanctuary) to which the fruits of everything are drawn as a provision from Us? But most of them do not know.
28:58

وَكَمْ اَهْلَكْنَا مِنْ قَرْیَةٍ بَطِرَتْ مَعِیْشَتَهَا ۚ فَتِلْكَ مَسٰكِنُهُمْ لَمْ تُسْكَنْ مِّنْ بَعْدِهِمْ اِلَّا قَلِیْلًا ؕ وَكُنَّا نَحْنُ الْوٰرِثِیْنَ

And how many a town have We destroyed that were over-proud of their means of living. Now, those are their habitations, which were never inhabited after them except a few, and We alone were the inheritors.
28:59

وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ مُهْلِكَ الْقُرٰی حَتّٰی یَبْعَثَ فِیْۤ اُمِّهَا رَسُوْلًا یَّتْلُوْا عَلَیْهِمْ اٰیٰتِنَا ۚ وَمَا كُنَّا مُهْلِكِی الْقُرٰۤی اِلَّا وَاَهْلُهَا ظٰلِمُوْنَ

And your Lord is not such as He would destroy the towns unless he had sent to their central place a messenger who recites to them Our verses, nor are We such as would destroy the towns unless their people are wrongdoers.
28:60

وَمَاۤ اُوْتِیْتُمْ مِّنْ شَیْءٍ فَمَتَاعُ الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا وَزِیْنَتُهَا ۚ وَمَا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ خَیْرٌ وَّاَبْقٰی ؕ اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ

Moreover, whatever of anything you are given is (no more than) an enjoyment of the worldly life and its decoration, and that which lies with Allah is much better and far more lasting. So do you not use reason?
28:61

اَفَمَنْ وَّعَدْنٰهُ وَعْدًا حَسَنًا فَهُوَ لَاقِیْهِ كَمَنْ مَّتَّعْنٰهُ مَتَاعَ الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا ثُمَّ هُوَ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ مِنَ الْمُحْضَرِیْنَ

Is then the one, to whom We have made a good promise which he is going to meet, like the one whom We have given the benefit of enjoying the worldly life, then on the Day of Judgment he will be among those arraigned?
28:62

وَیَوْمَ یُنَادِیْهِمْ فَیَقُوْلُ اَیْنَ شُرَكَآءِیَ الَّذِیْنَ كُنْتُمْ تَزْعُمُوْنَ

(Remember) the Day when He will call them and say, “Where are My ‘partners’ you used to claim?
28:63

قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ حَقَّ عَلَیْهِمُ الْقَوْلُ رَبَّنَا هٰۤؤُلَآءِ الَّذِیْنَ اَغْوَیْنَا ۚ اَغْوَیْنٰهُمْ كَمَا غَوَیْنَا ۚ تَبَرَّاْنَاۤ اِلَیْكَ ؗ مَا كَانُوْۤا اِیَّانَا یَعْبُدُوْنَ

Those against whom the word will come true will say, “Our Lord, these are the ones whom we led astray. We led them astray as we ourselves went astray. We negate before you our responsibility (in respect of them); it was not we whom they worshipped.”
28:64

وَقِیْلَ ادْعُوْا شُرَكَآءَكُمْ فَدَعَوْهُمْ فَلَمْ یَسْتَجِیْبُوْا لَهُمْ وَرَاَوُا الْعَذَابَ ۚ لَوْ اَنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا یَهْتَدُوْنَ

And it will be said, “Call those whom you held as co-gods.” So they will call them, but they will not respond to them, and they will see the punishment. Would that they had taken the right path!
28:65

وَیَوْمَ یُنَادِیْهِمْ فَیَقُوْلُ مَاذَاۤ اَجَبْتُمُ الْمُرْسَلِیْنَ

(Remember) the Day when He (Allah) will call them and say, “What response did you give to the messengers?”
28:66

فَعَمِیَتْ عَلَیْهِمُ الْاَنْۢبَآءُ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ فَهُمْ لَا یَتَسَآءَلُوْنَ

So all events will become too obscure for them (to give a correct reply), and they will not (be able to) consult each other.
28:67

فَاَمَّا مَنْ تَابَ وَاٰمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَعَسٰۤی اَنْ یَّكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُفْلِحِیْنَ

As for the one who repents and becomes a believer and acts righteously, hopefully he will be among the successful.
28:68

وَرَبُّكَ یَخْلُقُ مَا یَشَآءُ وَیَخْتَارُ ؕ مَا كَانَ لَهُمُ الْخِیَرَةُ ؕ سُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ وَتَعٰلٰی عَمَّا یُشْرِكُوْنَ

Your Lord creates what He wills and chooses. Choice is not theirs. Pure is Allah and far higher than their ascribing of partners to Him.
28:69

وَرَبُّكَ یَعْلَمُ مَا تُكِنُّ صُدُوْرُهُمْ وَمَا یُعْلِنُوْنَ

Your Lord knows what their hearts conceal and what they reveal.
28:70

وَهُوَ اللّٰهُ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ ؕ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِی الْاُوْلٰی وَالْاٰخِرَةِ ؗ وَلَهُ الْحُكْمُ وَاِلَیْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَ

And He is Allah. There is no god but He. Praise is only for Him in the beginning and at the end, and He alone has the right to judge, and to Him you are to be returned.
28:71

قُلْ اَرَءَیْتُمْ اِنْ جَعَلَ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْكُمُ الَّیْلَ سَرْمَدًا اِلٰی یَوْمِ الْقِیٰمَةِ مَنْ اِلٰهٌ غَیْرُ اللّٰهِ یَاْتِیْكُمْ بِضِیَآءٍ ؕ اَفَلَا تَسْمَعُوْنَ

Say, “Tell me, if Allah were to impose the night over you, continuing forever up to the Day of Judgment, which god, other than Allah, would bring to you light? Then, do you not listen?”
28:72

قُلْ اَرَءَیْتُمْ اِنْ جَعَلَ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْكُمُ النَّهَارَ سَرْمَدًا اِلٰی یَوْمِ الْقِیٰمَةِ مَنْ اِلٰهٌ غَیْرُ اللّٰهِ یَاْتِیْكُمْ بِلَیْلٍ تَسْكُنُوْنَ فِیْهِ ؕ اَفَلَا تُبْصِرُوْنَ

Say, “Tell me, if Allah were to impose the day over you, continuing for ever up to the Day of Judgment, which god, other than Allah, would bring to you night in which you may have rest? Then, do you not see?”
28:73

وَمِنْ رَّحْمَتِهٖ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الَّیْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لِتَسْكُنُوْا فِیْهِ وَلِتَبْتَغُوْا مِنْ فَضْلِهٖ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ

And it is out of His mercy that He has made day and night for you, so that you may have rest in it, and so that you may search for His grace, and so that you may be grateful.
28:74

وَیَوْمَ یُنَادِیْهِمْ فَیَقُوْلُ اَیْنَ شُرَكَآءِیَ الَّذِیْنَ كُنْتُمْ تَزْعُمُوْنَ

And (remember) the Day when He (Allah) will call them (the disbelievers) and say, “Where are My ‘partners’ you used to claim?”
28:75

وَنَزَعْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ اُمَّةٍ شَهِیْدًا فَقُلْنَا هَاتُوْا بُرْهَانَكُمْ فَعَلِمُوْۤا اَنَّ الْحَقَّ لِلّٰهِ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا یَفْتَرُوْنَ

And We will draw out a witness from every community (to prove their disbelief) and will say, “Bring your proof”. Then they will know that truth is from Allah, and all that they used to forge shall vanish from them.
28:76

اِنَّ قَارُوْنَ كَانَ مِنْ قَوْمِ مُوْسٰی فَبَغٰی عَلَیْهِمْ ۪ وَاٰتَیْنٰهُ مِنَ الْكُنُوْزِ مَاۤ اِنَّ مَفَاتِحَهٗ لَتَنُوْٓاُ بِالْعُصْبَةِ اُولِی الْقُوَّةِ ۗ اِذْ قَالَ لَهٗ قَوْمُهٗ لَا تَفْرَحْ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُحِبُّ الْفَرِحِیْنَ

Indeed Qārūn was from the people of Mūsā, then he rebelled against them. And We had given to him such treasures as their keys would weigh too heavy for a strong group of people. (Remember) when his people said to him, “Do not exult. Surely, Allah does not like the exultant.
28:77

وَابْتَغِ فِیْمَاۤ اٰتٰىكَ اللّٰهُ الدَّارَ الْاٰخِرَةَ وَلَا تَنْسَ نَصِیْبَكَ مِنَ الدُّنْیَا وَاَحْسِنْ كَمَاۤ اَحْسَنَ اللّٰهُ اِلَیْكَ وَلَا تَبْغِ الْفَسَادَ فِی الْاَرْضِ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُحِبُّ الْمُفْسِدِیْنَ

And seek the (betterment of) the Ultimate Abode with what Allah has given to you, and do not neglect your share from this world, and do good as Allah did good to you, and do not seek to make mischief in the land. Surely, Allah does not like the mischief-makers.”
28:78

قَالَ اِنَّمَاۤ اُوْتِیْتُهٗ عَلٰی عِلْمٍ عِنْدِیْ ؕ اَوَلَمْ یَعْلَمْ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ قَدْ اَهْلَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِهٖ مِنَ الْقُرُوْنِ مَنْ هُوَ اَشَدُّ مِنْهُ قُوَّةً وَّاَكْثَرُ جَمْعًا ؕ وَلَا یُسْـَٔلُ عَنْ ذُنُوْبِهِمُ الْمُجْرِمُوْنَ

He said, “This is given to me because of the knowledge (I have) with me.” Did he not know that Allah had destroyed, from the generations before him, those who were stronger than him in power and greater than him in multitude? And the sinners have not to be asked about their sins.
28:79

فَخَرَجَ عَلٰی قَوْمِهٖ فِیْ زِیْنَتِهٖ ؕ قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ یُرِیْدُوْنَ الْحَیٰوةَ الدُّنْیَا یٰلَیْتَ لَنَا مِثْلَ مَاۤ اُوْتِیَ قَارُوْنُ ۙ اِنَّهٗ لَذُوْ حَظٍّ عَظِیْمٍ

Then (once) he came out before his people in his embellishment. Said those who are desirous of the worldly life, “Would that we had the like of what Qārūn has been given! He is a man of great fortune indeed.”
28:80

وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ وَیْلَكُمْ ثَوَابُ اللّٰهِ خَیْرٌ لِّمَنْ اٰمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا ۚ وَلَا یُلَقّٰىهَاۤ اِلَّا الصّٰبِرُوْنَ

And said those who were given knowledge, “Woe to you, Allah’s reward is much better for him who believes and acts righteously. But this is given to none but to those who observe restraint.”
28:81

فَخَسَفْنَا بِهٖ وَبِدَارِهِ الْاَرْضَ ۫ فَمَا كَانَ لَهٗ مِنْ فِئَةٍ یَّنْصُرُوْنَهٗ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ ۗ وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْمُنْتَصِرِیْنَ

Then We made him and his home sink into the earth. So there was no group for him who could help him against Allah, nor was he one of those who could defend themselves.
28:82

وَاَصْبَحَ الَّذِیْنَ تَمَنَّوْا مَكَانَهٗ بِالْاَمْسِ یَقُوْلُوْنَ وَیْكَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ یَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ یَّشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖ وَیَقْدِرُ ۚ لَوْلَاۤ اَنْ مَّنَّ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْنَا لَخَسَفَ بِنَا ؕ وَیْكَاَنَّهٗ لَا یُفْلِحُ الْكٰفِرُوْنَ

And those who wished to be in his position the day before, started saying, “Oh, it seems that Allah extends provision to whom He wills and straitens (for whom He wills). Had Allah not favored us, He would have made us sink (too). Oh, it seems that the infidels do not succeed.”
28:83

تِلْكَ الدَّارُ الْاٰخِرَةُ نَجْعَلُهَا لِلَّذِیْنَ لَا یُرِیْدُوْنَ عُلُوًّا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَلَا فَسَادًا ؕ وَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِیْنَ

As for that Ultimate Abode (the Hereafter), We assign it to those who do not intend haughtiness on earth nor mischief. And the (best) end is for the God-fearing.
28:84

مَنْ جَآءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهٗ خَیْرٌ مِّنْهَا ۚ وَمَنْ جَآءَ بِالسَّیِّئَةِ فَلَا یُجْزَی الَّذِیْنَ عَمِلُوا السَّیِّاٰتِ اِلَّا مَا كَانُوْا یَعْمَلُوْنَ

Whoever brings good deed shall have better than it, and whoever brings evil deed, then those who commit evils shall not be punished except for what they used to do.
28:85

اِنَّ الَّذِیْ فَرَضَ عَلَیْكَ الْقُرْاٰنَ لَرَآدُّكَ اِلٰی مَعَادٍ ؕ قُلْ رَّبِّیْۤ اَعْلَمُ مَنْ جَآءَ بِالْهُدٰی وَمَنْ هُوَ فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِیْنٍ

Surely the One who has enjoined the Qur’ān upon you will surely bring you back to a place of return. Say, “My Lord best knows the one who has come with guidance and the one who is in manifest error.”
28:86

وَمَا كُنْتَ تَرْجُوْۤا اَنْ یُّلْقٰۤی اِلَیْكَ الْكِتٰبُ اِلَّا رَحْمَةً مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُوْنَنَّ ظَهِیْرًا لِّلْكٰفِرِیْنَ

You were not expecting that the Book would be sent down to you, but it was a mercy from your Lord. So, never be a supporter for the infidels.
28:87

وَلَا یَصُدُّنَّكَ عَنْ اٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ بَعْدَ اِذْ اُنْزِلَتْ اِلَیْكَ وَادْعُ اِلٰی رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِیْنَ

And let them not prevent you from Allah’s verses after they are sent down to you, and call (people) to your Lord, and never become one of those who associate partners with Allah.
28:88

وَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهًا اٰخَرَ ۘ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ ۫ كُلُّ شَیْءٍ هَالِكٌ اِلَّا وَجْهَهٗ ؕ لَهُ الْحُكْمُ وَاِلَیْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَ

And do not invoke any other god along with Allah. There is no god but He. Every thing is going to perish except His Face. He alone has the right to judge, and to Him you are to be returned.

29. Al-'Ankabut

29:1

الٓمّٓ

Alif , Lām , Mīm .
29:2

اَحَسِبَ النَّاسُ اَنْ یُّتْرَكُوْۤا اَنْ یَّقُوْلُوْۤا اٰمَنَّا وَهُمْ لَا یُفْتَنُوْنَ

Do people think that they will be left (at ease) only on their saying, “We believe” and will not be put to any test?
29:3

وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ صَدَقُوْا وَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ الْكٰذِبِیْنَ

Indeed We have tested those who were before them. So Allah will surely know the ones who are truthful, and He will surely know the liars.
29:4

اَمْ حَسِبَ الَّذِیْنَ یَعْمَلُوْنَ السَّیِّاٰتِ اَنْ یَّسْبِقُوْنَا ؕ سَآءَ مَا یَحْكُمُوْنَ

Or do those who commit evils think that they will outstrip Us? Evil is what they predicate.
29:5

مَنْ كَانَ یَرْجُوْا لِقَآءَ اللّٰهِ فَاِنَّ اَجَلَ اللّٰهِ لَاٰتٍ ؕ وَهُوَ السَّمِیْعُ الْعَلِیْمُ

Whoever hopes to meet Allah (must be sure that) Allah’s appointed time has to come, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.
29:6

وَمَنْ جَاهَدَ فَاِنَّمَا یُجَاهِدُ لِنَفْسِهٖ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَغَنِیٌّ عَنِ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ

Whoever strives, strives for his own benefit. Surely Allah is independent of all the worlds.
29:7

وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَنُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنْهُمْ سَیِّاٰتِهِمْ وَلَنَجْزِیَنَّهُمْ اَحْسَنَ الَّذِیْ كَانُوْا یَعْمَلُوْنَ

Those who believe and do righteous deeds, We will expiate their bad deeds and will give them a better reward (than their expectation) for what they used to do.
29:8

وَوَصَّیْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ بِوَالِدَیْهِ حُسْنًا ؕ وَاِنْ جَاهَدٰكَ لِتُشْرِكَ بِیْ مَا لَیْسَ لَكَ بِهٖ عِلْمٌ فَلَا تُطِعْهُمَا ؕ اِلَیَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَاُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ

We have instructed man to do good to his parents. And if they insist upon you that you should ascribe partners to Me, then do not obey them. To Me is your return; then I shall tell you what you used to do.
29:9

وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَنُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ فِی الصّٰلِحِیْنَ

And those who believe and do righteous deeds, We shall include them among the righteous.
29:10

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ یَّقُوْلُ اٰمَنَّا بِاللّٰهِ فَاِذَاۤ اُوْذِیَ فِی اللّٰهِ جَعَلَ فِتْنَةَ النَّاسِ كَعَذَابِ اللّٰهِ ؕ وَلَىِٕنْ جَآءَ نَصْرٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ لَیَقُوْلُنَّ اِنَّا كُنَّا مَعَكُمْ ؕ اَوَلَیْسَ اللّٰهُ بِاَعْلَمَ بِمَا فِیْ صُدُوْرِ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ

Among men there are those who say, “We believe in Allah”, but when they are persecuted in (the way of) Allah, they take the persecution of men, as equal to the punishment of Allah. And should any help come from your Lord, they will certainly say, “We were with you.” Is it not that Allah knows well what lies in the hearts of the people of all the worlds?
29:11

وَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَلَیَعْلَمَنَّ الْمُنٰفِقِیْنَ

Allah will certainly know those who believe and He will certainly know the hypocrites.
29:12

وَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لِلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّبِعُوْا سَبِیْلَنَا وَلْنَحْمِلْ خَطٰیٰكُمْ ؕ وَمَا هُمْ بِحٰمِلِیْنَ مِنْ خَطٰیٰهُمْ مِّنْ شَیْءٍ ؕ اِنَّهُمْ لَكٰذِبُوْنَ

Those who disbelieve say to those who believe, “Follow our way, and we will bear the burden of your sins.” And they are not (able) to bear the burden of their sins in the least. Indeed they are pure liars.
29:13

وَلَیَحْمِلُنَّ اَثْقَالَهُمْ وَاَثْقَالًا مَّعَ اَثْقَالِهِمْ ؗ وَلَیُسْـَٔلُنَّ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ عَمَّا كَانُوْا یَفْتَرُوْنَ

They shall certainly bear their own loads, and some other loads along with their own loads, and they will certainly be questioned about what they used to forge.
29:14

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا اِلٰی قَوْمِهٖ فَلَبِثَ فِیْهِمْ اَلْفَ سَنَةٍ اِلَّا خَمْسِیْنَ عَامًا ؕ فَاَخَذَهُمُ الطُّوْفَانُ وَهُمْ ظٰلِمُوْنَ

We sent NūH to his people. So he stayed with them one thousand, less fifty, years. Then the Deluge seized them, and they were transgressors.
29:15

فَاَنْجَیْنٰهُ وَاَصْحٰبَ السَّفِیْنَةِ وَجَعَلْنٰهَاۤ اٰیَةً لِّلْعٰلَمِیْنَ

So We saved him and the people of the Ark, and made it a sign for all the worlds.
29:16

وَاِبْرٰهِیْمَ اِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَاتَّقُوْهُ ؕ ذٰلِكُمْ خَیْرٌ لَّكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ

And (We sent) Ibrāhīm when he said to his people, “Worship Allah and fear Him. That is better for you if you know.
29:17

اِنَّمَا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَوْثَانًا وَّتَخْلُقُوْنَ اِفْكًا ؕ اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ لَا یَمْلِكُوْنَ لَكُمْ رِزْقًا فَابْتَغُوْا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ الرِّزْقَ وَاعْبُدُوْهُ وَاشْكُرُوْا لَهٗ ؕ اِلَیْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَ

You only worship idols beside Allah, and you invent a lie. In fact those whom you worship beside Allah do not have power to give you provision. So seek provision with Allah and worship Him and be grateful to Him. To Him you are to be returned.
29:18

وَاِنْ تُكَذِّبُوْا فَقَدْ كَذَّبَ اُمَمٌ مِّنْ قَبْلِكُمْ ؕ وَمَا عَلَی الرَّسُوْلِ اِلَّا الْبَلٰغُ الْمُبِیْنُ

And if you reject me, then many nations have rejected their messengers before you. The messenger has no more obligation than to convey the message clearly.”
29:19

اَوَلَمْ یَرَوْا كَیْفَ یُبْدِئُ اللّٰهُ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ یُعِیْدُهٗ ؕ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ یَسِیْرٌ

Did they not see how Allah originates the creation, then He will do it again. Surely this is easy for Allah.
29:20

قُلْ سِیْرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوْا كَیْفَ بَدَاَ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ اللّٰهُ یُنْشِئُ النَّشْاَةَ الْاٰخِرَةَ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ

Say, “Go about in the land and look how He has originated the creation. Then Allah will create the subsequent creation. Surely Allah is powerful to do everything.”
29:21

یُعَذِّبُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَیَرْحَمُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ۚ وَاِلَیْهِ تُقْلَبُوْنَ

He punishes whom He wills and has mercy on whom He wills. And to Him you are to be turned back.
29:22

وَمَاۤ اَنْتُمْ بِمُعْجِزِیْنَ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَلَا فِی السَّمَآءِ ؗ وَمَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ مِنْ وَّلِیٍّ وَّلَا نَصِیْرٍ

You are not (able) to frustrate (Allah) neither in the earth nor in the sky. And, apart from Allah, you have neither a protector nor a helper.
29:23

وَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِاٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَلِقَآىِٕهٖۤ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ یَىِٕسُوْا مِنْ رَّحْمَتِیْ وَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ

And those who deny the signs of Allah and meeting with Him - those will despair of My mercy, and those are the ones for whom there is a painful punishment.
29:24

فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوْمِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ قَالُوا اقْتُلُوْهُ اَوْ حَرِّقُوْهُ فَاَنْجٰىهُ اللّٰهُ مِنَ النَّارِ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یُّؤْمِنُوْنَ

So, the response of his (Ibrāhīm) people was none but that they said, “Kill him” or “Burn him”. So Allah saved him from the fire. Surely in this there are signs for a people who believe.
29:25

وَقَالَ اِنَّمَا اتَّخَذْتُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَوْثَانًا ۙ مَّوَدَّةَ بَیْنِكُمْ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا ۚ ثُمَّ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ یَكْفُرُ بَعْضُكُمْ بِبَعْضٍ وَّیَلْعَنُ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا ؗ وَّمَاْوٰىكُمُ النَّارُ وَمَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ نّٰصِرِیْنَ

And he (Ibrāhīm) said, “You have adopted idols instead of Allah, only because of love (you have) with each other in the worldly life. Then on the Day of Judgment you will reject each other, and will curse each other. And your abode is the Fire, and you will have no helpers.”
29:26

فَاٰمَنَ لَهٗ لُوْطٌ ۘ وَقَالَ اِنِّیْ مُهَاجِرٌ اِلٰی رَبِّیْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ

So LūT believed in him, and he (Ibrāhīm) said, “I am going to leave my homeland towards my Lord. Surely He is the Mighty, the Wise.
29:27

وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗۤ اِسْحٰقَ وَیَعْقُوْبَ وَجَعَلْنَا فِیْ ذُرِّیَّتِهِ النُّبُوَّةَ وَالْكِتٰبَ وَاٰتَیْنٰهُ اَجْرَهٗ فِی الدُّنْیَا ۚ وَاِنَّهٗ فِی الْاٰخِرَةِ لَمِنَ الصّٰلِحِیْنَ

And We granted him IsHāq (Isaac) and Ya‘qūb (Jacob), and assigned prophet-hood and Book to his progeny, and gave him his reward in the world; and of course, in the Hereafter, he will be one of the righteous.
29:28

وَلُوْطًا اِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهٖۤ اِنَّكُمْ لَتَاْتُوْنَ الْفَاحِشَةَ ؗ مَا سَبَقَكُمْ بِهَا مِنْ اَحَدٍ مِّنَ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ

And (We sent) LūT when he said to his people, “Indeed you commit the shameful act that no one in the worlds has ever preceded you in it.
29:29

اَىِٕنَّكُمْ لَتَاْتُوْنَ الرِّجَالَ وَتَقْطَعُوْنَ السَّبِیْلَ ۙ۬ وَتَاْتُوْنَ فِیْ نَادِیْكُمُ الْمُنْكَرَ ؕ فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوْمِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ قَالُوا ائْتِنَا بِعَذَابِ اللّٰهِ اِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقِیْنَ

Is it (not) a fact that you go for men (to satisfy your lust) and rob the wayfarers and commit evil in your gathering?” So the answer of his people was none but that they said, “Bring us Allah’s punishment, if you are one of the truthful.”
29:30

قَالَ رَبِّ انْصُرْنِیْ عَلَی الْقَوْمِ الْمُفْسِدِیْنَ

He said, “My Lord, help me against the people who make mischief.”
29:31

وَلَمَّا جَآءَتْ رُسُلُنَاۤ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ بِالْبُشْرٰی ۙ قَالُوْۤا اِنَّا مُهْلِكُوْۤا اَهْلِ هٰذِهِ الْقَرْیَةِ ۚ اِنَّ اَهْلَهَا كَانُوْا ظٰلِمِیْنَ

And when Our messengers came to Ibrāhīm with the good news, they said, “We are going to destroy the people of this town. Surely its people have been transgressors.”
29:32

قَالَ اِنَّ فِیْهَا لُوْطًا ؕ قَالُوْا نَحْنُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ فِیْهَا ؗۥ لَنُنَجِّیَنَّهٗ وَاَهْلَهٗۤ اِلَّا امْرَاَتَهٗ ؗۗ كَانَتْ مِنَ الْغٰبِرِیْنَ

He said, “There is LūT in it.” They said, “We know well who is in it. We will certainly save him and his family except his wife who will be among those remaining behind.”
29:33

وَلَمَّاۤ اَنْ جَآءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوْطًا سِیْٓءَ بِهِمْ وَضَاقَ بِهِمْ ذَرْعًا وَّقَالُوْا لَا تَخَفْ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ ۫ اِنَّا مُنَجُّوْكَ وَاَهْلَكَ اِلَّا امْرَاَتَكَ كَانَتْ مِنَ الْغٰبِرِیْنَ

And when Our messengers came to LūT, he grieved for them and his heart was straitened because of them, but they said, “We are going to save you and your family, except your wife who will be among those remaining behind.
29:34

اِنَّا مُنْزِلُوْنَ عَلٰۤی اَهْلِ هٰذِهِ الْقَرْیَةِ رِجْزًا مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَفْسُقُوْنَ

We are going to bring down on the people of this town a punishment from the sky, because they used to act sinfully.”
29:35

وَلَقَدْ تَّرَكْنَا مِنْهَاۤ اٰیَةً بَیِّنَةً لِّقَوْمٍ یَّعْقِلُوْنَ

And We left from it (the town) an evident sign for a people who understand.
29:36

وَاِلٰی مَدْیَنَ اَخَاهُمْ شُعَیْبًا ۙ فَقَالَ یٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَارْجُوا الْیَوْمَ الْاٰخِرَ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ مُفْسِدِیْنَ

And (We sent) to Madyan their brother Shu‘aib. So he said, “O my people, worship Allah and fear the Last Day, and do not roam about in the land as mischief makers.”
29:37

فَكَذَّبُوْهُ فَاَخَذَتْهُمُ الرَّجْفَةُ فَاَصْبَحُوْا فِیْ دَارِهِمْ جٰثِمِیْنَ

So they gave the lie to him, then they were seized by the earthquake and they remained in their homes lying on their faces.
29:38

وَعَادًا وَّثَمُوْدَاۡ وَقَدْ تَّبَیَّنَ لَكُمْ مِّنْ مَّسٰكِنِهِمْ ۫ وَزَیَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّیْطٰنُ اَعْمَالَهُمْ فَصَدَّهُمْ عَنِ السَّبِیْلِ وَكَانُوْا مُسْتَبْصِرِیْنَ

And (We destroyed) ‘Ād and Thamūd, and it is visible to you through their dwellings. And the Satan had beautified for them their deeds, so he prevented them from the (right) way, even though they were people of insight.
29:39

وَقَارُوْنَ وَفِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامٰنَ ۫ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ مُّوْسٰی بِالْبَیِّنٰتِ فَاسْتَكْبَرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَمَا كَانُوْا سٰبِقِیْنَ

And (We also destroyed) Qārūn and Pharaoh and Hāmān. Indeed Mūsā came to them with clear signs; so they acted arrogantly on the earth, and were not (able) to escape.
29:40

فَكُلًّا اَخَذْنَا بِذَنْۢبِهٖ ۚ فَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ اَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِ حَاصِبًا ۚ وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ اَخَذَتْهُ الصَّیْحَةُ ۚ وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ خَسَفْنَا بِهِ الْاَرْضَ ۚ وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ اَغْرَقْنَا ۚ وَمَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِیَظْلِمَهُمْ وَلٰكِنْ كَانُوْۤا اَنْفُسَهُمْ یَظْلِمُوْنَ

Thus We seized each one of them for his sin. So to some of them We sent a violent wind; and some of them were seized by a Cry; and some of them We made to sink in the earth; and some of them We drowned. And Allah was not to do injustice to them, but they used to do injustice to their own selves.
29:41

مَثَلُ الَّذِیْنَ اتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَوْلِیَآءَ كَمَثَلِ الْعَنْكَبُوْتِ ۚۖ اِتَّخَذَتْ بَیْتًا ؕ وَاِنَّ اَوْهَنَ الْبُیُوْتِ لَبَیْتُ الْعَنْكَبُوْتِ ۘ لَوْ كَانُوْا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

The example of those who have adopted patrons other than Allah is like the spider that has made a house, while indeed the weakest of houses is the house of the spider. If only they know.
29:42

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَعْلَمُ مَا یَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ مِنْ شَیْءٍ ؕ وَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ

Surely, Allah knows whatever thing they invoke beside Allah, and He is the Mighty, the Wise.
29:43

وَتِلْكَ الْاَمْثَالُ نَضْرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ ۚ وَمَا یَعْقِلُهَاۤ اِلَّا الْعٰلِمُوْنَ

We site these examples for people, but no one understands them except the knowledgeable ones.
29:44

خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ ؕ اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیَةً لِّلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

Allah has created the heavens and the earth with truth. Surely in this there is a sign for the believers.
29:45

اُتْلُ مَاۤ اُوْحِیَ اِلَیْكَ مِنَ الْكِتٰبِ وَاَقِمِ الصَّلٰوةَ ؕ اِنَّ الصَّلٰوةَ تَنْهٰی عَنِ الْفَحْشَآءِ وَالْمُنْكَرِ ؕ وَلَذِكْرُ اللّٰهِ اَكْبَرُ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ مَا تَصْنَعُوْنَ

Recite (O Prophet) what is revealed to you of the Book, and establish Salāh . Surely Salāh restrains one from shameful and evil acts. Indeed remembrance of Allah is the greatest of all things. Allah knows what you do.
