طسٓمٓ ١
Tâ-Sîn-Mîm.
26:2
تِلۡكَ ءَايَٰتُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِينِ ٢
These are the Verses of the manifest Book .
26:3
لَعَلَّكَ بَٰخِعٞ نَّفۡسَكَ أَلَّا يَكُونُواْ مُؤۡمِنِينَ ٣
It may be that you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) are going to kill yourself with grief, that they do not become believers .
26:4
إِن نَّشَأۡ نُنَزِّلۡ عَلَيۡهِم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ ءَايَةٗ فَظَلَّتۡ أَعۡنَٰقُهُمۡ لَهَا خَٰضِعِينَ ٤
If We will, We could send down to them from the heaven a sign, to which they would bend their necks in humility.
26:5
وَمَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن ذِكۡرٖ مِّنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ مُحۡدَثٍ إِلَّا كَانُواْ عَنۡهُ مُعۡرِضِينَ ٥
And never comes there unto them a Reminder as a recent revelation from the Most Gracious (Allâh), but they turn away therefrom.
26:6
فَقَدۡ كَذَّبُواْ فَسَيَأۡتِيهِمۡ أَنۢبَٰٓؤُاْ مَا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ ٦
So they have indeed denied (the truth - this Qur’ân), then the news of what they mocked at will come to them.
26:7
أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَمۡ أَنۢبَتۡنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوۡجٖ كَرِيمٍ ٧
Do they not observe the earth - how much of every good kind We cause to grow therein?
26:8
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ٨
Verily, in this is an Ayâh (proof or sign), yet most of them (polytheists, pagans who do not believe in Resurrection) are not believers.
26:9
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ٩
And verily your Lord, He is truly the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:10
وَإِذۡ نَادَىٰ رَبُّكَ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱئۡتِ ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ ١٠
And (remember) when your Lord called Mûsâ (Moses) (saying): "Go to the people who are Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers) -
26:11
قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ أَلَا يَتَّقُونَ ١١
"The people of Fir‘aun (Pharaoh): Will they not fear Allâh and become righteous?"
26:12
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ ١٢
He said: "My Lord! Verily, I fear that they will belie me,
26:13
وَيَضِيقُ صَدۡرِي وَلَا يَنطَلِقُ لِسَانِي فَأَرۡسِلۡ إِلَىٰ هَٰرُونَ ١٣
"And my breast straitens, and my tongue expresses not well. So send for Hârûn (Aaron) (to come along with me).
26:14
وَلَهُمۡ عَلَيَّ ذَنۢبٞ فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقۡتُلُونِ ١٤
"And they have a charge of crime against me, and I fear they will kill me."
26:15
قَالَ كـَلَّاۖ فَٱذۡهَبَا بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآۖ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّسۡتَمِعُونَ ١٥
(Allâh) said: "Nay! Go you both with Our Signs. Verily We shall be with you, listening.
26:16
فَأۡتِيَا فِرۡعَوۡنَ فَقُولَآ إِنَّا رَسُولُ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ١٦
"And go both of you to Fir‘aun (Pharaoh), and say: ‘We are the Messengers of the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists),
26:17
أَنۡ أَرۡسِلۡ مَعَنَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ١٧
"So allow the Children of Israel to go with us.’ "
26:18
قَالَ أَلَمۡ نُرَبِّكَ فِينَا وَلِيدٗا وَلَبِثۡتَ فِينَا مِنۡ عُمُرِكَ سِنِينَ ١٨
said : "Did we not bring you up among us as a child? And you did dwell many years of your life with us.
26:19
وَفَعَلۡتَ فَعۡلَتَكَ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلۡتَ وَأَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ ١٩
"And you did your deed, which you did (i.e. the crime of killing a man) while you were one of the ingrates."
26:20
قَالَ فَعَلۡتُهَآ إِذٗا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ٢٠
Mûsâ (Moses) said: "I did it then, when I was ignorant (as regards my Lord and His Message).
26:21
فَفَرَرۡتُ مِنكُمۡ لَمَّا خِفۡتُكُمۡ فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكۡمٗا وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ٢١
"So I fled from you when I feared you. But my Lord has granted me Hukm (i.e. religious knowledge, right judgement of the affairs and Prophethood), and made me one of the Messengers.
26:22
وَتِلۡكَ نِعۡمَةٞ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَيَّ أَنۡ عَبَّدتَّ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٢٢
"And this is the past favour with which you reproach me: that you have enslaved the Children of Israel."
26:23
قَالَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ وَمَا رَبُّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٢٣
Fir‘aun (Pharaoh) said: "And what is the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists)?"
26:24
قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَآۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ ٢٤
said: "The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, if you seek to be convinced with certainty."
26:25
قَالَ لِمَنۡ حَوۡلَهُۥٓ أَلَا تَسۡتَمِعُونَ ٢٥
said to those around: "Do you not hear (what he says)?"
26:26
قَالَ رَبُّكُمۡ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ٢٦
said: "Your Lord and the Lord of your ancient fathers!"
26:27
قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَكُمُ ٱلَّذِيٓ أُرۡسِلَ إِلَيۡكُمۡ لَمَجۡنُونٞ ٢٧
said: "Verily, your Messenger who has been sent to you is a madman!"
26:28
قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ وَٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَآۖ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ ٢٨
said: "Lord of the east and the west, and all that is between them, if you did but understand!"
26:29
قَالَ لَئِنِ ٱتَّخَذۡتَ إِلَٰهًا غَيۡرِي لَأَجۡعَلَنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡمَسۡجُونِينَ ٢٩
said: "If you choose an ilâh (god) other than me, I will certainly put you among the prisoners."
26:30
قَالَ أَوَلَوۡ جِئۡتُكَ بِشَيۡءٖ مُّبِينٖ ٣٠
said: "Even if I bring you something manifest (and convincing)?"
26:31
قَالَ فَأۡتِ بِهِۦٓ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ ٣١
said: "Bring it forth then, if you are of the truthful!"
26:32
فَأَلۡقَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ ثُعۡبَانٞ مُّبِينٞ ٣٢
So threw his stick, and behold, it was a serpent, manifest.
26:33
وَنَزَعَ يَدَهُۥ فَإِذَا هِيَ بَيۡضَآءُ لِلنَّٰظِرِينَ ٣٣
And he drew out his hand, and behold, it was white to all beholders!
26:34
قَالَ لِلۡمَلَإِ حَوۡلَهُۥٓ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَسَٰحِرٌ عَلِيمٞ ٣٤
said to the chiefs around him: "Verily! This is indeed a well-versed sorcerer.
26:35
يُرِيدُ أَن يُخۡرِجَكُم مِّنۡ أَرۡضِكُم بِسِحۡرِهِۦ فَمَاذَا تَأۡمُرُونَ ٣٥
"He wants to drive you out of your land by his sorcery: what is it then that you command?"
26:36
قَالُوٓاْ أَرۡجِهۡ وَأَخَاهُ وَٱبۡعَثۡ فِي ٱلۡمَدَآئِنِ حَٰشِرِينَ ٣٦
They said: "Put him off and his brother (for a while), and send callers to the cities;
26:37
يَأۡتُوكَ بِكُلِّ سَحَّارٍ عَلِيمٖ ٣٧
"To bring up to you every well-versed sorcerer."
26:38
فَجُمِعَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ لِمِيقَٰتِ يَوۡمٖ مَّعۡلُومٖ ٣٨
So the sorcerers were assembled at a fixed time on a day appointed.
26:39
وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلۡ أَنتُم مُّجۡتَمِعُونَ ٣٩
And it was said to the people: "Are you (too) going to assemble?
26:40
لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ ٱلسَّحَرَةَ إِن كَانُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ ٤٠
"That we may follow the sorcerers if they are the winners."
26:41
فَلَمَّا جَآءَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ قَالُواْ لِفِرۡعَوۡنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجۡرًا إِن كُنَّا نَحۡنُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ ٤١
So when the sorcerers arrived, they said to Fir‘aun (Pharaoh): "Will there surely be a reward for us if we are the winners?"
26:42
قَالَ نَعَمۡ وَإِنَّكُمۡ إِذٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِينَ ٤٢
He said: "Yes, and you shall then verily be of those brought near (to myself)."
26:43
قَالَ لَهُم مُّوسَىٰٓ أَلۡقُواْ مَآ أَنتُم مُّلۡقُونَ ٤٣
Mûsâ (Moses) said to them: "Throw what you are going to throw!"
26:44
فَأَلۡقَوۡاْ حِبَالَهُمۡ وَعِصِيَّهُمۡ وَقَالُواْ بِعِزَّةِ فِرۡعَوۡنَ إِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبُونَ ٤٤
So they threw their ropes and their sticks, and said: "By the might of Fir‘aun (Pharaoh), it is we who will certainly win!"
26:45
فَأَلۡقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلۡقَفُ مَا يَأۡفِكُونَ ٤٥
Then Mûsâ (Moses) threw his stick, and behold, it swallowed up all that they falsely showed!
26:46
فَأُلۡقِيَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ سَٰجِدِينَ ٤٦
And the sorcerers fell down prostrate.
26:47
قَالُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا بِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٤٧
Saying: "We believe in the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists).
26:48
رَبِّ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ ٤٨
"The Lord of Mûsâ (Moses) and Hârûn (Aaron)."
26:49
قَالَ ءَامَنتُمۡ لَهُۥ قَبۡلَ أَنۡ ءَاذَنَ لَكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ ٱلَّذِي عَلَّمَكُمُ ٱلسِّحۡرَ فَلَسَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَۚ لَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيۡدِيَكُمۡ وَأَرۡجُلَكُم مِّنۡ خِلَٰفٖ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ ٤٩
said: "You have believed in him before I give you leave. Surely, he indeed is your chief, who has taught you magic! So verily, you shall come to know. Verily, I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will crucify you all."
26:50
قَالُواْ لَا ضَيۡرَۖ إِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا مُنقَلِبُونَ ٥٠
They said: "No harm! Surely, to our Lord (Allâh) we are to return.
26:51
إِنَّا نَطۡمَعُ أَن يَغۡفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطَٰيَٰنَآ أَن كُنَّآ أَوَّلَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ ٥١
"Verily we really hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins, as we are the first of the believers ."
26:52
۞ وَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنۡ أَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِيٓ إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ ٥٢
And We revealed to Mûsâ (Moses), saying: "Depart by night with My slaves, verily you will be pursued."
26:53
فَأَرۡسَلَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ فِي ٱلۡمَدَآئِنِ حَٰشِرِينَ ٥٣
Then Fir‘aun (Pharaoh) sent callers to (all) the cities.
26:54
إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَشِرۡذِمَةٞ قَلِيلُونَ ٥٤
(Saying): "Verily these indeed are but a small band.
26:55
وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَنَا لَغَآئِظُونَ ٥٥
"And verily, they have done what has enraged us.
26:56
وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَٰذِرُونَ ٥٦
"But we are a host all assembled, amply fore-warned."
26:57
فَأَخۡرَجۡنَٰهُم مِّن جَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ ٥٧
So, We expelled them from gardens and springs,
26:58
وَكُنُوزٖ وَمَقَامٖ كَرِيمٖ ٥٨
Treasures, and every kind of honourable place.
26:59
كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٥٩
Thus and We caused the Children of Israel to inherit them.
26:60
فَأَتۡبَعُوهُم مُّشۡرِقِينَ ٦٠
So they pursued them at sunrise.
26:61
فَلَمَّا تَرَٰٓءَا ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِ قَالَ أَصۡحَٰبُ مُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّا لَمُدۡرَكُونَ ٦١
And when the two hosts saw each other, the companions of Mûsâ (Moses) said: "We are sure to be overtaken."
26:62
قَالَ كـَلَّآۖ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهۡدِينِ ٦٢
said: "Nay, verily with me is my Lord. He will guide me."
26:63
فَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱضۡرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلۡبَحۡرَۖ فَٱنفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرۡقٖ كَٱلطَّوۡدِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ٦٣
Then We revealed to Mûsâ (Moses) (saying): "Strike the sea with your stick." And it parted, and each separate part (of that sea water) became like huge mountain.
26:64
وَأَزۡلَفۡنَا ثَمَّ ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ ٦٤
Then We brought near the others to that place.
26:65
وَأَنجَيۡنَا مُوسَىٰ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ ٦٥
And We saved Mûsâ (Moses) and all those with him.
26:66
ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ ٦٦
Then We drowned the others.
26:67
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ٦٧
Verily in this is indeed a sign (or a proof), yet most of them are not believers.
26:68
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ٦٨
And verily your Lord, He is truly the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:69
وَٱتۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ نَبَأَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ ٦٩
And recite to them the story of Ibrâhîm (Abraham).
26:70
إِذۡ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوۡمِهِۦ مَا تَعۡبُدُونَ ٧٠
When he said to his father and his people: "What do you worship?"
26:71
قَالُواْ نَعۡبُدُ أَصۡنَامٗا فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَٰكِفِينَ ٧١
They said: "We worship idols, and to them we are ever devoted."
26:72
قَالَ هَلۡ يَسۡمَعُونَكُمۡ إِذۡ تَدۡعُونَ ٧٢
He said: "Do they hear you, when you call on (them)?
26:73
أَوۡ يَنفَعُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَضُرُّونَ ٧٣
"Or do they benefit you or do they harm (you)?"
26:74
قَالُواْ بَلۡ وَجَدۡنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفۡعَلُونَ ٧٤
They said: "(Nay) but we found our fathers doing so."
26:75
قَالَ أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُونَ ٧٥
He said: "Do you observe that which you have been worshipping -
26:76
أَنتُمۡ وَءَابَآؤُكُمُ ٱلۡأَقۡدَمُونَ ٧٦
"You and your ancient fathers?
26:77
فَإِنَّهُمۡ عَدُوّٞ لِّيٓ إِلَّا رَبَّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٧٧
"Verily they are enemies to me, save the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists),
26:78
ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَنِي فَهُوَ يَهۡدِينِ ٧٨
"Who has created me, and it is He Who guides me.
26:79
وَٱلَّذِي هُوَ يُطۡعِمُنِي وَيَسۡقِينِ ٧٩
"And it is He Who feeds me and gives me to drink.
26:80
وَإِذَا مَرِضۡتُ فَهُوَ يَشۡفِينِ ٨٠
"And when I am ill, it is He who cures me.
26:81
وَٱلَّذِي يُمِيتُنِي ثُمَّ يُحۡيِينِ ٨١
"And Who will cause me to die, and then will bring me to life (again).
26:82
وَٱلَّذِيٓ أَطۡمَعُ أَن يَغۡفِرَ لِي خَطِيٓـَٔتِي يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ ٨٢
"And Who, I hope, will forgive me my faults on the Day of Recompense, (the Day of Resurrection).
26:83
رَبِّ هَبۡ لِي حُكۡمٗا وَأَلۡحِقۡنِي بِٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ ٨٣
My Lord! Bestow Hukm (religious knowledge, right judgement of the affairs and Prophethood) on me, and join me with the righteous.
26:84
وَٱجۡعَل لِّي لِسَانَ صِدۡقٖ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ ٨٤
And grant me an honourable mention in later generations.
26:85
وَٱجۡعَلۡنِي مِن وَرَثَةِ جَنَّةِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ٨٥
And make me one of the inheritors of the Paradise of Delight.
26:86
وَٱغۡفِرۡ لِأَبِيٓ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ٨٦
And forgive my father, verily he is of the erring.
26:87
وَلَا تُخۡزِنِي يَوۡمَ يُبۡعَثُونَ ٨٧
And disgrace me not on the Day when (all the creatures) will be resurrected.
26:88
يَوۡمَ لَا يَنفَعُ مَالٞ وَلَا بَنُونَ ٨٨
The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons will avail,
26:89
إِلَّا مَنۡ أَتَى ٱللَّهَ بِقَلۡبٖ سَلِيمٖ ٨٩
Except him who brings to Allâh a clean heart ."
26:90
وَأُزۡلِفَتِ ٱلۡجَنَّةُ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ ٩٠
And Paradise will be brought near to the Muttaqûn (the pious - See V.2:2).
26:91
وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلۡجَحِيمُ لِلۡغَاوِينَ ٩١
And the (Hell) Fire will be placed in full view of the erring.
26:92
وَقِيلَ لَهُمۡ أَيۡنَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُونَ ٩٢
And it will be said to them: "Where are those (the false gods whom you used to set up as rivals with Allâh) that you used to worship.
26:93
مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ هَلۡ يَنصُرُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَنتَصِرُونَ ٩٣
"Instead of Allâh? Can they help you or (even) help themselves?"
26:94
فَكُبۡكِبُواْ فِيهَا هُمۡ وَٱلۡغَاوُۥنَ ٩٤
Then they will be thrown on their faces into the (Fire), they and the Ghâwûn (devils, and those who were in error).
26:95
وَجُنُودُ إِبۡلِيسَ أَجۡمَعُونَ ٩٥
And the whole hosts of Iblîs (Satan) together.
26:96
قَالُواْ وَهُمۡ فِيهَا يَخۡتَصِمُونَ ٩٦
They will say while contending therein,
26:97
تَٱللَّهِ إِن كُنَّا لَفِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ ٩٧
By Allâh, we were truly in a manifest error,
26:98
إِذۡ نُسَوِّيكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٩٨
When We held you (false gods) as equals (in worship) with the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists);
26:99
وَمَآ أَضَلَّنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ ٩٩
And none has brought us into error except the Mujrimûn .
26:100
فَمَا لَنَا مِن شَٰفِعِينَ ١٠٠
Now we have no intercessors,
26:101
وَلَا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٖ ١٠١
Nor a close friend (to help us).
26:102
فَلَوۡ أَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةٗ فَنَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ ١٠٢
(Alas!) If we only had a chance to return (to the world), we shall truly be among the believers!
26:103
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ١٠٣
Verily in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers.
26:104
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ١٠٤
And verily, your Lord, He is truly the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:105
كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ نُوحٍ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ١٠٥
The people of Nûh (Noah) belied the Messengers.
26:106
إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ نُوحٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ ١٠٦
When their brother Nûh (Noah) said to them: "Will you not fear Allâh and obey Him?
26:107
إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ ١٠٧
"I am a trustworthy Messenger to you.
26:108
فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ ١٠٨
"So fear Allâh, keep your duty to Him, and obey me.
26:109
وَمَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍۖ إِنۡ أَجۡرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ١٠٩
"No reward do I ask of you for it (my Message of Islâmic Monotheism); my reward is only from the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists).
26:110
فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ ١١٠
"So keep your duty to Allâh, fear Him and obey me."
26:111
۞ قَالُوٓاْ أَنُؤۡمِنُ لَكَ وَٱتَّبَعَكَ ٱلۡأَرۡذَلُونَ ١١١
They said: "Shall we believe in you, when the meanest (of the people) follow you?"
26:112
قَالَ وَمَا عِلۡمِي بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ ١١٢
He said: "And what knowledge have I of what they used to do?
26:113
إِنۡ حِسَابُهُمۡ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّيۖ لَوۡ تَشۡعُرُونَ ١١٣
"Their account is only with my Lord, if you could (but) know.
26:114
وَمَآ أَنَا۠ بِطَارِدِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ ١١٤
"And I am not going to drive away the believers.
26:115
إِنۡ أَنَا۠ إِلَّا نَذِيرٞ مُّبِينٞ ١١٥
I am only a plain warner."
26:116
قَالُواْ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهِ يَٰنُوحُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡمَرۡجُومِينَ ١١٦
They said: "If you cease not, O Nûh (Noah) you will surely be among those stoned (to death)."
26:117
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنَّ قَوۡمِي كَذَّبُونِ ١١٧
He said: "My Lord! Verily, my people have belied me.
26:118
فَٱفۡتَحۡ بَيۡنِي وَبَيۡنَهُمۡ فَتۡحٗا وَنَجِّنِي وَمَن مَّعِيَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ ١١٨
Therefore judge You between me and them, and save me and those of the believers who are with me."
26:119
فَأَنجَيۡنَٰهُ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥ فِي ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ ١١٩
And We saved him and those with him in the laden ship.
26:120
ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا بَعۡدُ ٱلۡبَاقِينَ ١٢٠
Then We drowned the rest (disbelievers) thereafter.
26:121
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ١٢١
Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers.
26:122
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ١٢٢
And verily your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:123
كَذَّبَتۡ عَادٌ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ١٢٣
‘Âd (people) belied the Messengers.

قَالُواْ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡنَآ أَوَعَظۡتَ أَمۡ لَمۡ تَكُن مِّنَ ٱلۡوَٰعِظِينَ ١٣٦
They said: "It is the same to us whether you preach or be not of those who preach.
26:137
إِنۡ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا خُلُقُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ١٣٧
"This is no other than the false tales and religion of the ancients,
26:138
وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُعَذَّبِينَ ١٣٨
"And we are not going to be punished."
26:139
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَهۡلَكۡنَٰهُمۡۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ١٣٩
So they belied him, and We destroyed them. Verily in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers.
26:140
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ١٤٠
And verily your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:141
كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُودُ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ١٤١
Thamûd (people) belied the Messengers.

قَالَ هَٰذِهِۦ نَاقَةٞ لَّهَا شِرۡبٞ وَلَكُمۡ شِرۡبُ يَوۡمٖ مَّعۡلُومٖ ١٥٥
He said: "Here is a she-camel: it has a right to drink (water), and you have a right to drink (water) (each) on a day, known.
26:156
وَلَا تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوٓءٖ فَيَأۡخُذَكُمۡ عَذَابُ يَوۡمٍ عَظِيمٖ ١٥٦
"And touch her not with harm, lest the torment of a Great Day should seize you."
26:157
فَعَقَرُوهَا فَأَصۡبَحُواْ نَٰدِمِينَ ١٥٧
But they killed her, and then they became regretful.
26:158
فَأَخَذَهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ١٥٨
So the torment overtook them. Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers.
26:159
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ١٥٩
And verily your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:160
كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ لُوطٍ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ١٦٠
The people of Lût (Lot) (-who dwelt in the town of Sodom in Palestine) belied the Messengers.
26:161
إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ لُوطٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ ١٦١
When their brother Lût (Lot) said to them: "Will you not fear Allâh and obey Him?

They said: "If you cease not O Lût (Lot)! verily, you will be one of those who are driven out!"
26:168
قَالَ إِنِّي لِعَمَلِكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡقَالِينَ ١٦٨
He said: "I am, indeed, of those who disapprove with severe anger and fury your (this evil) action (of sodomy).
26:169
رَبِّ نَجِّنِي وَأَهۡلِي مِمَّا يَعۡمَلُونَ ١٦٩
"My Lord! Save me and my family from what they do."
26:170
فَنَجَّيۡنَٰهُ وَأَهۡلَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ ١٧٠
So We saved him and his family, all,
26:171
إِلَّا عَجُوزٗا فِي ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ ١٧١
Except an old woman (his wife) among those who remained behind.
26:172
ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ ١٧٢
Then afterward We destroyed the others.
26:173
وَأَمۡطَرۡنَا عَلَيۡهِم مَّطَرٗاۖ فَسَآءَ مَطَرُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ ١٧٣
And We rained on them a rain (of torment). And how evil was the rain of those who had been warned!
26:174
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ١٧٤
Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers.
26:175
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ١٧٥
And verily your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:176
كَذَّبَ أَصۡحَٰبُ لۡـَٔيۡكَةِ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ١٧٦
The dwellers of Al-Aikah belied the Messengers.
26:177
إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ شُعَيۡبٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ ١٧٧
When Shu‘aib said to them: "Will you not fear Allâh (and obey Him)?
26:178
إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ ١٧٨
"I am a trustworthy Messenger to you.

فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ ١٧٩
"So fear Allâh, keep your duty to Him, and obey me.
26:180

"No reward do I ask of you for it (my Message of Islâmic Monotheism); my reward is only from the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists).
26:181
۞ أَوۡفُواْ ٱلۡكَيۡلَ وَلَا تَكُونُواْ مِنَ ٱلۡمُخۡسِرِينَ ١٨١
"Give full measure, and cause no loss (to others).
26:182
وَزِنُواْ بِٱلۡقِسۡطَاسِ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمِ ١٨٢
"And weigh with the true and straight balance.
26:183
وَلَا تَبۡخَسُواْ ٱلنَّاسَ أَشۡيَآءَهُمۡ وَلَا تَعۡثَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مُفۡسِدِينَ ١٨٣
"And defraud not people by reducing their things, nor do evil, making corruption and mischief in the land.
26:184
وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَكُمۡ وَٱلۡجِبِلَّةَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ١٨٤
"And fear Him Who created you and the generations of the men of old."
26:185
قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَحَّرِينَ ١٨٥
They said: "You are only one of those bewitched!
26:186
وَمَآ أَنتَ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُنَا وَإِن نَّظُنُّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡكَٰذِبِينَ ١٨٦
"You are but a human being like us and verily, we think that you are one of the liars!
26:187
فَأَسۡقِطۡ عَلَيۡنَا كِسَفٗا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ ١٨٧
"So cause a piece of the heaven to fall on us, if you are of the truthful!"
26:188
قَالَ رَبِّيٓ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ ١٨٨
He said: "My Lord is the Best Knower of what you do."
26:189
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمۡ عَذَابُ يَوۡمِ ٱلظُّلَّةِۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَذَابَ يَوۡمٍ عَظِيمٍ ١٨٩
But they belied him, so the torment of the day of shadow (a gloomy cloud) seized them. Indeed that was the torment of a Great Day.
26:190
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ ١٩٠
Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers.
26:191
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ١٩١
And verily your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
26:192
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَنزِيلُ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ١٩٢
And truly, this (the Qur’ân) is a revelation from the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists),
26:193
نَزَلَ بِهِ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلۡأَمِينُ ١٩٣
Which the trustworthy Rûh has brought down
26:194
عَلَىٰ قَلۡبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُنذِرِينَ ١٩٤
Upon your heart (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) that you may be (one) of the warners,
26:195
بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِيّٖ مُّبِينٖ ١٩٥
In the plain Arabic language.
26:196
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَفِي زُبُرِ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ١٩٦
And verily, it (the Qur’ân, and its revelation to Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) is (announced) in the Scriptures of former people.
26:197
أَوَلَمۡ يَكُن لَّهُمۡ ءَايَةً أَن يَعۡلَمَهُۥ عُلَمَٰٓؤُاْ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ١٩٧
Is it not a sign to them that the learned scholars (like ‘Abdullâh bin Salâm رضي الله عنه who embraced Islâm) of the Children of Israel knew it (as true)?
26:198
وَلَوۡ نَزَّلۡنَٰهُ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضِ ٱلۡأَعۡجَمِينَ ١٩٨
And if We had revealed it (this Qur’ân) unto any of the non-Arabs,
26:199
فَقَرَأَهُۥ عَلَيۡهِم مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ مُؤۡمِنِينَ ١٩٩
And he had recited it unto them, they would not have believed in it.
26:200
كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكۡنَٰهُ فِي قُلُوبِ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ ٢٠٠
Thus have We caused it (the denial of the Qur’ân) to enter the hearts of the Mûjrimûn (criminals, polytheists, sinners).
26:201
لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِهِۦ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُاْ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَلِيمَ ٢٠١
They will not believe in it until they see the painful torment.
26:202
فَيَأۡتِيَهُم بَغۡتَةٗ وَهُمۡ لَا يَشۡعُرُونَ ٢٠٢
It shall come to them of a sudden, while they perceive it not.
26:203
فَيَقُولُواْ هَلۡ نَحۡنُ مُنظَرُونَ ٢٠٣
Then they will say: "Can we be respited?"
26:204
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ ٢٠٤
Would they then wish for Our Torment to be hastened on?
26:205
أَفَرَءَيۡتَ إِن مَّتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ سِنِينَ ٢٠٥
Tell Me, (even) if We do let them enjoy for years,
26:206
ثُمَّ جَآءَهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يُوعَدُونَ ٢٠٦
And afterwards comes to them that (punishment) which they had been promised,
26:207
مَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يُمَتَّعُونَ ٢٠٧
All that with which they used to enjoy shall not avail them.
26:208
وَمَآ أَهۡلَكۡنَا مِن قَرۡيَةٍ إِلَّا لَهَا مُنذِرُونَ ٢٠٨
And never did We destroy a township but it had its warners
26:209
ذِكۡرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَٰلِمِينَ ٢٠٩
By way of reminder, and We have never been unjust.
26:210
وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتۡ بِهِ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ ٢١٠
And it is not the Shayâtîn (devils) who have brought it (this Qur’ân) down.
26:211
وَمَا يَنۢبَغِي لَهُمۡ وَمَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ ٢١١
Neither would it suit them, nor they can (produce it).
26:212
إِنَّهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلسَّمۡعِ لَمَعۡزُولُونَ ٢١٢
Verily, they have been removed far from hearing it.
26:213
فَلَا تَدۡعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُعَذَّبِينَ ٢١٣
So invoke not with Allâh another ilâh (god) lest you should be among those who receive punishment.
26:214
وَأَنذِرۡ عَشِيرَتَكَ ٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ ٢١٤
And warn your tribe (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) of near kindred.
26:215
وَٱخۡفِضۡ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ ٢١٥
And be kind and humble to the believers who follow you.
26:216
فَإِنۡ عَصَوۡكَ فَقُلۡ إِنِّي بَرِيٓءٞ مِّمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ ٢١٦
Then if they disobey you, say: "I am innocent of what you do."
26:217
وَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ٢١٧
And put your trust in the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful,
26:218
ٱلَّذِي يَرَىٰكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ ٢١٨
Who sees you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) when you stand up (alone at night for Tahajjud prayers).
26:219
وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِي ٱلسَّٰجِدِينَ ٢١٩
And your movements among those who fall prostrate (to Allâh in the five compulsory congregational prayers).
26:220
إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ ٢٢٠
Verily He, only He, is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.
26:221
هَلۡ أُنَبِّئُكُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ ٢٢١
Shall I inform you (O people!) upon whom the Shayâtîn (devils) descend?
26:222
تَنَزَّلُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٖ ٢٢٢
They descend on every lying, sinful person.
26:223
يُلۡقُونَ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَأَكۡثَرُهُمۡ كَٰذِبُونَ ٢٢٣
Who gives ear (to the devils and they pour what they may have heard of the Unseen from the angels), and most of them are liars.
26:224
وَٱلشُّعَرَآءُ يَتَّبِعُهُمُ ٱلۡغَاوُۥنَ ٢٢٤
As for the poets, the erring ones follow them,
26:225
أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّهُمۡ فِي كُلِّ وَادٖ يَهِيمُونَ ٢٢٥
See you not that they speak about every subject (praising people - right or wrong) in their poetry?
26:226
وَأَنَّهُمۡ يَقُولُونَ مَا لَا يَفۡعَلُونَ ٢٢٦
And that they say what they do not do.
26:227
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَذَكَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرٗا وَٱنتَصَرُواْ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا ظُلِمُواْۗ وَسَيَعۡلَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓاْ أَيَّ مُنقَلَبٖ يَنقَلِبُونَ ٢٢٧
Except those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) and do righteous deeds, and remember Allâh much, and vindicate themselves after they have been wronged . And those who do wrong will come to know by what overturning they will be overturned.
