25:0
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful.
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
تَبٰرَكَ الَّذِیْ نَزَّلَ الْفُرْقَانَ عَلٰى عَبْدِهٖ لِیَكُوْنَ لِلْعٰلَمِیْنَ نَذِیْرَ ﰳاۙ (۱)
BLESSED IS HE who revealed the Criterion (of right and wrong) to His votary that it may be a warning for the world, --
Blessed is He who sent down the criterion to His servant, that it may be an admonition to all creatures;-
الَّذِیْ لَهٗ مُلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِ وَ لَمْ یَتَّخِذْ وَلَدًا وَّ لَمْ یَكُنْ لَّهٗ شَرِیْكٌ فِی الْمُلْكِ وَ خَلَقَ كُلَّ شَیْءٍ فَقَدَّرَهٗ تَقْدِیْرًا(۲)
He to whom belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, who has neither begotten a son nor has He a partner in His kingdom, (who) created everything and determined its exact measure.
He to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: no son has He begotten, nor has He a partner in His dominion: it is He who created all things, and ordered them in due proportions.
وَ اتَّخَذُوْا مِنْ دُوْنِهٖۤ اٰلِهَةً لَّا یَخْلُقُوْنَ شَیْــٴًـا وَّ هُمْ یُخْلَقُوْنَ وَ لَا یَمْلِكُوْنَ لِاَنْفُسِهِمْ ضَرًّا وَّ لَا نَفْعًا وَّ لَا یَمْلِكُوْنَ مَوْتًا وَّ لَا حَیٰوةً وَّ لَا نُشُوْرًا(۳)
Yet they choose apart from Him gods who have not created any thing and have themselves been created, who possess no power over their loss or gain, or their death or life or being raised to life again.
Yet have they taken, besides him, gods that can create nothing but are themselves created; that have no control of hurt or good to themselves; nor can they control death nor life nor resurrection.
وَ قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْۤا اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّاۤ اِفْكُ-ﰳافْتَرٰىهُ وَ اَعَانَهٗ عَلَیْهِ قَوْمٌ اٰخَرُوْنَۚۛ-فَقَدْ جَآءُوْ ظُلْمًا وَّ زُوْرًاۚۛ(۴)
Yet the unbelievers say: "This is nothing but a lie he has concocted in which others have aided him." They have come down to mischief and lies.
But the misbelievers say: "Naught is this but a lie which he has forged, and others have helped him at it." In truth it is they who have put forward an iniquity and a falsehood.
وَ قَالُوْۤا اَسَاطِیْرُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ اكْتَتَبَهَا فَهِیَ تُمْلٰى عَلَیْهِ بُكْرَةً وَّ اَصِیْلًا(۵)
And they say: "These are fables of antiquity he has invented, which are dictated to him morning and evening."
And they say: "Tales of the ancients, which he has caused to be written: and they are dictated before him morning and evening."
قُلْ اَنْزَلَهُ الَّذِیْ یَعْلَمُ السِّرَّ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِؕ-اِنَّهٗ كَانَ غَفُوْرًا رَّحِیْمًا(۶)
Say: "He who knows the secrets of the heavens and the earth has revealed it to me; and He is surely forgiving and kind."
Say: "The (Qur'an) was sent down by Him who knows the mystery (that is) in the heavens and the earth: verily He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
وَ قَالُوْا مَالِ هٰذَا الرَّسُوْلِ یَاْكُلُ الطَّعَامَ وَ یَمْشِیْ فِی الْاَسْوَاقِؕ-لَوْ لَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْهِ مَلَكٌ فَیَكُوْنَ مَعَهٗ نَذِیْرًاۙ(۷)
But they say: "What sort of prophet is this who eats food and walks the market places? Why was no angel sent to him to act as admonisher with him?
And they say: "What sort of a messenger is this, who eats food, and walks through the streets? Why has not an angel been sent down to him to give admonition with him?
اَوْ یُلْقٰۤى اِلَیْهِ كَنْزٌ اَوْ تَكُوْنُ لَهٗ جَنَّةٌ یَّاْكُلُ مِنْهَاؕ-وَ قَالَ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ اِنْ تَتَّبِعُوْنَ اِلَّا رَجُلًا مَّسْحُوْرًا(۸)
Or a treasure should have been given to him, or he should have had an orchard from which he could eat." And these wicked people say: "You only follow a man ensorcelled."
"Or (Why) has not a treasure been bestowed on him, or why has he (not) a garden for enjoyment?" The wicked say: "Ye follow none other than a man bewitched."
اُنْظُرْ كَیْفَ ضَرَبُوْا لَكَ الْاَمْثَالَ فَضَلُّوْا فَلَا یَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ سَبِیْلًا۠(۹)
Just see what comparisons they bring up for you! They are lost and cannot find the way.
See what kinds of comparisons they make for thee! But they have gone astray, and never a way will they be able to find!
تَبٰرَكَ الَّذِیْۤ اِنْ شَآءَ جَعَلَ لَكَ خَیْرًا مِّنْ ذٰلِكَ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُۙ-وَ یَجْعَلْ لَّكَ قُصُوْرًا(۱۰)
Blessed be He who, if He pleased, could give you better than that, -- gardens with rivers flowing by; and make palaces for you.
Blessed is He who, if that were His will, could give thee better (things) than those,- Gardens beneath which rivers flow; and He could give thee palaces (secure to dwell in).
بَلْ كَذَّبُوْا بِالسَّاعَةِ- وَ اَعْتَدْنَا لِمَنْ كَذَّبَ بِالسَّاعَةِ سَعِیْرًاۚ(۱۱)
Yet they reject the Hour as untrue. We have prepared a Fire for those who deny the Resurrection.
Nay they deny the hour (of the judgment to come): but We have prepared a blazing fire for such as deny the hour:
اِذَا رَاَتْهُمْ مِّنْ مَّكَانٍۭ بَعِیْدٍ سَمِعُوْا لَهَا تَغَیُّظًا وَّ زَفِیْرًا(۱۲)
When (Hell) appears to them from a distance they will hear it raging and roaring.
When it sees them from a place far off, they will hear its fury and its ranging sigh.
وَ اِذَاۤ اُلْقُوْا مِنْهَا مَكَانًا ضَیِّقًا مُّقَرَّنِیْنَ دَعَوْا هُنَالِكَ ثُبُوْرًاؕ(۱۳)
And when they are cast within a narrow space of it chained together, they would plead for death.
And when they are cast, bound together into a constricted place therein, they will plead for destruction there and then!
لَا تَدْعُوا الْیَوْمَ ثُبُوْرًا وَّاحِدًا وَّ ادْعُوْا ثُبُوْرًا كَثِیْرًا(۱۴)
"Do not ask for one death but many deaths on this day."
"This day plead not for a single destruction: plead for destruction oft-repeated!"
قُلْ اَذٰلِكَ خَیْرٌ اَمْ جَنَّةُ الْخُلْدِ الَّتِیْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَؕ-كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَزَآءً وَّ مَصِیْرًا(۱۵)
Ask them: "Is this better or a garden for everlasting abode which has been promised the pious and devout? It would be their guerdon and their destination.
Say: "Is that best, or the eternal garden, promised to the righteous? for them, that is a reward as well as a goal (of attainment).
لَهُمْ فِیْهَا مَا یَشَآءُوْنَ خٰلِدِیْنَؕ-كَانَ عَلٰى رَبِّكَ وَعْدًا مَّسْـُٔوْلًا(۱۶)
There will they have whatever they wish, and there abide for ever." This is a promise incumbent on your Lord which will certainly be fulfilled.
"For them there will be therein all that they wish for: they will dwell (there) for aye: A promise to be prayed for from thy Lord."
وَ یَوْمَ یَحْشُرُهُمْ وَ مَا یَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ فَیَقُوْلُ ءَاَنْتُمْ اَضْلَلْتُمْ عِبَادِیْ هٰۤؤُلَآءِ اَمْ هُمْ ضَلُّوا السَّبِیْلَؕ(۱۷)
The day He will gather them together along with those they worshipped other than God, He will ask them: "Did you lure these creatures of Mine away, or did they themselves go astray?"
The day He will gather them together as well as those whom they worship besides Allah, He will ask: "Was it ye who let these My servants astray, or did they stray from the Path themselves?"
قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَكَ مَا كَانَ یَنْۢبَغِیْ لَنَاۤ اَنْ نَّتَّخِذَ مِنْ دُوْنِكَ مِنْ اَوْلِیَآءَ وَ لٰكِنْ مَّتَّعْتَهُمْ وَ اٰبَآءَهُمْ حَتّٰى نَسُوا الذِّكْرَۚ-وَ كَانُوْا قَوْمًۢا بُوْرًا(۱۸)
They will answer: "Glory to You. It was not worthy of us to seek any protector other than You. But You allowed them and their fathers a life of ease until they turned oblivious of the Reminder. They were a people impenitent.
They will say: "Glory to Thee! not meet was it for us that we should take for protectors others besides Thee: But Thou didst bestow, on them and their fathers, good things (in life), until they forgot the Message: for they were a people (worthless and) lost."
فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوْكُمْ بِمَا تَقُوْلُوْنَۙ-فَمَا تَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ صَرْفًا وَّ لَا نَصْرًاۚ-وَ مَنْ یَّظْلِمْ مِّنْكُمْ نُذِقْهُ عَذَابًا كَبِیْرًا(۱۹)
(The idolaters will be told): "Your gods have refuted your assertion. You can neither avert (your doom) nor receive any help. We shall make the wicked among you taste of severe punishment."
(Allah will say): "Now have they proved you liars in what ye say: so ye cannot avert (your penalty) nor (get) help." And whoever among you does wrong, him shall We cause to taste of a grievous Penalty.
وَ مَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِیْنَ اِلَّاۤ اِنَّهُمْ لَیَاْكُلُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ وَ یَمْشُوْنَ فِی الْاَسْوَاقِؕ-وَ جَعَلْنَا بَعْضَكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِتْنَةًؕ-اَتَصْبِرُوْنَۚ-وَ كَانَ رَبُّكَ بَصِیْرًا۠(۲۰)
We never sent before you apostles who did not eat food and walk the market places. We make some of you the means of trying the others. So will you persevere? Your Lord is always watching.
And the messengers whom We sent before thee were all (men) who ate food and walked through the streets: We have made some of you as a trial for others: will ye have patience? for Allah is One Who sees (all things).
وَ قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ لَا یَرْجُوْنَ لِقَآءَنَا لَوْ لَاۤ اُنْزِلَ عَلَیْنَا الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةُ اَوْ نَرٰى رَبَّنَاؕ-لَقَدِ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا فِیْۤ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَ عَتَوْ عُتُوًّا كَبِیْرًا(۲۱)
Those who do not hope to meet Us say: "Why are no angels sent down to us, or why do we not see our Lord?" They are full of self-conceit and behave with intense arrogance.
Such as fear not the meeting with Us (for Judgment) say: "Why are not the angels sent down to us, or (why) do we not see our Lord?" Indeed they have an arrogant conceit of themselves, and mighty is the insolence of their impiety!
یَوْمَ یَرَوْنَ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةَ لَا بُشْرٰى یَوْمَىٕذٍ لِّلْمُجْرِمِیْنَ وَ یَقُوْلُوْنَ حِجْرًا مَّحْجُوْرًا(۲۲)
The day they see the angels there will be no happy tidings for the sinners; and they will say: "There is an insurmountable barrier!"
The Day they see the angels,- no joy will there be to the sinners that Day: The (angels) will say: "There is a barrier forbidden (to you) altogether!"
وَ قَدِمْنَاۤ اِلٰى مَا عَمِلُوْا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنٰهُ هَبَآءً مَّنْثُوْرًا(۲۳)
We shall turn to their deeds and scatter them like particles of dust.
And We shall turn to whatever deeds they did (in this life), and We shall make such deeds as floating dust scattered about.
اَصْحٰبُ الْجَنَّةِ یَوْمَىٕذٍ خَیْرٌ مُّسْتَقَرًّا وَّ اَحْسَنُ مَقِیْلًا(۲۴)
The inmates of Paradise will have a better abode that day, and a better resting place.
The Companions of the Garden will be well, that Day, in their abode, and have the fairest of places for repose.
وَ یَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ السَّمَآءُ بِالْغَمَامِ وَ نُزِّلَ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةُ تَنْزِیْلًا(۲۵)
The day the heavens splits asunder with a dazzling white cloud gathering and the angels descend in a continuous stream,
The Day the heaven shall be rent asunder with clouds, and angels shall be sent down, descending (in ranks),-
اَلْمُلْكُ یَوْمَىٕذِ ﹰالْحَقُّ لِلرَّحْمٰنِؕ-وَ كَانَ یَوْمًا عَلَى الْكٰفِرِیْنَ عَسِیْرًا(۲۶)
The real sovereignty will belong to Ar-Rahman. How grievous will be the day for the infidels!
That Day, the dominion as of right and truth, shall be (wholly) for (Allah) Most Merciful: it will be a Day of dire difficulty for the misbelievers.
وَ یَوْمَ یَعَضُّ الظَّالِمُ عَلٰى یَدَیْهِ یَقُوْلُ یٰلَیْتَنِی اتَّخَذْتُ مَعَ الرَّسُوْلِ سَبِیْلًا(۲۷)
The sinner will then bite his hand and say: "Would that I had taken the road with the Prophet.
The Day that the wrong-doer will bite at his hands, he will say, "Oh! would that I had taken a (straight) path with the Messenger!
یٰوَیْلَتٰى لَیْتَنِیْ لَمْ اَتَّخِذْ فُلَانًا خَلِیْلًا(۲۸)
Woe alas, ah would I had not taken so-and-so as friend!
"Ah! woe is me! Would that I had never taken such a one for a friend!
لَقَدْ اَضَلَّنِیْ عَنِ الذِّكْرِ بَعْدَ اِذْ جَآءَنِیْؕ-وَ كَانَ الشَّیْطٰنُ لِلْاِنْسَانِ خَذُوْلًا(۲۹)
He led me astray from the Warning after it had come to me. Satan always betrays man.
"He did lead me astray from the Message (of Allah) after it had come to me! Ah! the Evil One is but a traitor to man!"
وَ قَالَ الرَّسُوْلُ یٰرَبِّ اِنَّ قَوْمِی اتَّخَذُوْا هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنَ مَهْجُوْرًا(۳۰)
The prophet will say: "O my Lord, my people had fettered the Qur´an."
Then the Messenger will say: "O my Lord! Truly my people took this Qur'an for just foolish nonsense."
وَ كَذٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِیٍّ عَدُوًّا مِّنَ الْمُجْرِمِیْنَؕ-وَ كَفٰى بِرَبِّكَ هَادِیًا وَّ نَصِیْرًا(۳۱)
Thus do We keep opponents among the sinners for every apostle; yet your Lord is sufficient as a guide and helper.
Thus have We made for every prophet an enemy among the sinners: but enough is thy Lord to guide and to help.
وَ قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَوْ لَا نُزِّلَ عَلَیْهِ الْقُرْاٰنُ جُمْلَةً وَّاحِدَةًۚۛ-كَذٰلِكَۚۛ-لِنُثَبِّتَ بِهٖ فُؤَادَكَ وَ رَتَّلْنٰهُ تَرْتِیْلًا(۳۲)
The unbelievers say: "Why was the whole Qur´an not sent down all at once to him?" It was sent thus that We may keep your heart resolute. So We enunciated it by steps and distinctly.
Those who reject Faith say: "Why is not the Qur'an revealed to him all at once? Thus (is it revealed), that We may strengthen thy heart thereby, and We have rehearsed it to thee in slow, well-arranged stages, gradually.
وَ لَا یَاْتُوْنَكَ بِمَثَلٍ اِلَّا جِئْنٰكَ بِالْحَقِّ وَ اَحْسَنَ تَفْسِیْرًاؕ(۳۳)
There is not an example they advance to which We do not give you a right answer and a better explanation.
And no question do they bring to thee but We reveal to thee the truth and the best explanation (thereof).
اَلَّذِیْنَ یُحْشَرُوْنَ عَلٰى وُجُوْهِهِمْ اِلٰى جَهَنَّمَۙ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا وَّ اَضَلُّ سَبِیْلًا۠(۳۴)
Those who will be pushed faces forward into Hell will be in a worse position, farther away from the path.
Those who will be gathered to Hell (prone) on their faces,- they will be in an evil plight, and, as to Path, most astray.
وَ لَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسَى الْكِتٰبَ وَ جَعَلْنَا مَعَهٗۤ اَخَاهُ هٰرُوْنَ وَزِیْرًاۚۖ(۳۵)
We gave Moses the Book, and made his brother Aaron his minister,
(Before this,) We sent Moses The Book, and appointed his brother Aaron with him as minister;
فَقُلْنَا اذْهَبَاۤ اِلَى الْقَوْمِ الَّذِیْنَ كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَاؕ-فَدَمَّرْنٰهُمْ تَدْمِیْرًاؕ(۳۶)
Then We told them: "Go to the people who have rejected Our signs." Then We annihilated them completely.
And We command: "Go ye both, to the people who have rejected our Signs:" And those (people) We destroyed with utter destruction.
وَ قَوْمَ نُوْحٍ لَّمَّا كَذَّبُوا الرُّسُلَ اَغْرَقْنٰهُمْ وَ جَعَلْنٰهُمْ لِلنَّاسِ اٰیَةًؕ-وَ اَعْتَدْنَا لِلظّٰلِمِیْنَ عَذَابًا اَلِیْمًاۚۖ(۳۷)
We had drowned the people of Noah when they had accused the apostles of lies, and turned them into an example for men. We have prepared a painful punishment for the wicked.
And the people of Noah,- when they rejected the messengers, We drowned them, and We made them as a Sign for mankind; and We have prepared for (all) wrong-doers a grievous Penalty;-
وَّ عَادًا وَّ ثَمُوْدَاۡ وَ اَصْحٰبَ الرَّسِّ وَ قُرُوْنًۢا بَیْنَ ذٰلِكَ كَثِیْرًا(۳۸)
(As for) ´Ad, Thamud and the people of ar-Rass, and many generations in between them,
As also 'Ad and Thamud, and the Companions of the Rass, and many a generation between them.
وَ كُلًّا ضَرَبْنَا لَهُ الْاَمْثَالَ٘-وَ كُلًّا تَبَّرْنَا تَتْبِیْرًا(۳۹)
We administered warnings to each of them, and then destroyed them completely.
To each one We set forth Parables and examples; and each one We broke to utter annihilation (for their sins).
وَ لَقَدْ اَتَوْا عَلَى الْقَرْیَةِ الَّتِیْۤ اُمْطِرَتْ مَطَرَ السَّوْءِؕ-اَفَلَمْ یَكُوْنُوْا یَرَوْنَهَاۚ-بَلْ كَانُوْا لَا یَرْجُوْنَ نُشُوْرًا(۴۰)
They must have surely passed by the town on which We had rained the terrible rain of ruin. How could they not have seen it? Still they do not dread the Resurrection.
And the (Unbelievers) must indeed have passed by the town on which was rained a shower of evil: did they not then see it (with their own eyes)? But they fear not the Resurrection.
