طسٓمٓ
Ta, Seen, Meem
26:2
تِلۡكَ ءَايَٰتُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِينِ
These are the verses of the clear Book
26:3
لَعَلَّكَ بَٰخِعٞ نَّفۡسَكَ أَلَّا يَكُونُواْ مُؤۡمِنِينَ
Perhaps, [O Muhammad], you would kill yourself with grief that they will not be believers
26:4
إِن نَّشَأۡ نُنَزِّلۡ عَلَيۡهِم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ ءَايَةٗ فَظَلَّتۡ أَعۡنَٰقُهُمۡ لَهَا خَٰضِعِينَ
If We willed, We could send down to them from the sky a sign for which their necks would remain humbled
26:5
وَمَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن ذِكۡرٖ مِّنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ مُحۡدَثٍ إِلَّا كَانُواْ عَنۡهُ مُعۡرِضِينَ
And no revelation comes to them anew from the Most Merciful except that they turn away from it
26:6
فَقَدۡ كَذَّبُواْ فَسَيَأۡتِيهِمۡ أَنۢبَـٰٓؤُاْ مَا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ
For they have already denied, but there will come to them the news of that which they used to ridicule
26:7
أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَمۡ أَنۢبَتۡنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوۡجٖ كَرِيمٍ
Did they not look at the earth - how much We have produced therein from every noble kind
26:8
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
26:9
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
26:10
وَإِذۡ نَادَىٰ رَبُّكَ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱئۡتِ ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ
And [mention] when your Lord called Moses, [saying], "Go to the wrongdoing people
26:11
قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ أَلَا يَتَّقُونَ
The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allah
26:12
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ
He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me
26:13
وَيَضِيقُ صَدۡرِي وَلَا يَنطَلِقُ لِسَانِي فَأَرۡسِلۡ إِلَىٰ هَٰرُونَ
And that my breast will tighten and my tongue will not be fluent, so send for Aaron
26:14
وَلَهُمۡ عَلَيَّ ذَنۢبٞ فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقۡتُلُونِ
And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me
26:15
قَالَ كَلَّاۖ فَٱذۡهَبَا بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآۖ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّسۡتَمِعُونَ
[Allah] said, "No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening
26:16
فَأۡتِيَا فِرۡعَوۡنَ فَقُولَآ إِنَّا رَسُولُ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
Go to Pharaoh and say, 'We are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds
26:17
أَنۡ أَرۡسِلۡ مَعَنَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَـٰٓءِيلَ
[Commanded to say], "Send with us the Children of Israel
26:18
قَالَ أَلَمۡ نُرَبِّكَ فِينَا وَلِيدٗا وَلَبِثۡتَ فِينَا مِنۡ عُمُرِكَ سِنِينَ
[Pharaoh] said, "Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life
26:19
وَفَعَلۡتَ فَعۡلَتَكَ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلۡتَ وَأَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ
And [then] you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful
26:20
قَالَ فَعَلۡتُهَآ إِذٗا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ
[Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray
26:21
فَفَرَرۡتُ مِنكُمۡ لَمَّا خِفۡتُكُمۡ فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكۡمٗا وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me wisdom and prophethood and appointed me [as one] of the messengers
26:22
وَتِلۡكَ نِعۡمَةٞ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَيَّ أَنۡ عَبَّدتَّ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَـٰٓءِيلَ
And is this a favor of which you remind me - that you have enslaved the Children of Israel
26:23
قَالَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ وَمَا رَبُّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
Said Pharaoh, "And what is the Lord of the worlds
26:24
قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَآۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ
[Moses] said, "The Lord of the heavens and earth and that between them, if you should be convinced
26:25
قَالَ لِمَنۡ حَوۡلَهُۥٓ أَلَا تَسۡتَمِعُونَ
[Pharaoh] said to those around him, "Do you not hear
26:26
قَالَ رَبُّكُمۡ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
[Moses] said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers
26:27
قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَكُمُ ٱلَّذِيٓ أُرۡسِلَ إِلَيۡكُمۡ لَمَجۡنُونٞ
[Pharaoh] said, "Indeed, your 'messenger' who has been sent to you is mad
26:28
قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ وَٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَآۖ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ
[Moses] said, "Lord of the east and the west and that between them, if you were to reason
26:29
قَالَ لَئِنِ ٱتَّخَذۡتَ إِلَٰهًا غَيۡرِي لَأَجۡعَلَنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡمَسۡجُونِينَ
[Pharaoh] said, "If you take a god other than me, I will surely place you among those imprisoned
26:30
قَالَ أَوَلَوۡ جِئۡتُكَ بِشَيۡءٖ مُّبِينٖ
[Moses] said, "Even if I brought you proof manifest
26:31
قَالَ فَأۡتِ بِهِۦٓ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ
[Pharaoh] said, "Then bring it, if you should be of the truthful
26:32
فَأَلۡقَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ ثُعۡبَانٞ مُّبِينٞ
So [Moses] threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent manifest
26:33
وَنَزَعَ يَدَهُۥ فَإِذَا هِيَ بَيۡضَآءُ لِلنَّـٰظِرِينَ
And he drew out his hand; thereupon it was white for the observers
26:34
قَالَ لِلۡمَلَإِ حَوۡلَهُۥٓ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَسَٰحِرٌ عَلِيمٞ
[Pharaoh] said to the eminent ones around him, "Indeed, this is a learned magician
26:35
يُرِيدُ أَن يُخۡرِجَكُم مِّنۡ أَرۡضِكُم بِسِحۡرِهِۦ فَمَاذَا تَأۡمُرُونَ
He wants to drive you out of your land by his magic, so what do you advise
26:36
قَالُوٓاْ أَرۡجِهۡ وَأَخَاهُ وَٱبۡعَثۡ فِي ٱلۡمَدَآئِنِ حَٰشِرِينَ
They said, "Postpone [the matter of] him and his brother and send among the cities gatherers
26:37
يَأۡتُوكَ بِكُلِّ سَحَّارٍ عَلِيمٖ
Who will bring you every learned, skilled magician
26:38
فَجُمِعَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ لِمِيقَٰتِ يَوۡمٖ مَّعۡلُومٖ
So the magicians were assembled for the appointment of a well-known day
26:39
وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلۡ أَنتُم مُّجۡتَمِعُونَ
And it was said to the people, "Will you congregate
26:40
لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ ٱلسَّحَرَةَ إِن كَانُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ
That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant
26:41
فَلَمَّا جَآءَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ قَالُواْ لِفِرۡعَوۡنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجۡرًا إِن كُنَّا نَحۡنُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ
And when the magicians arrived, they said to Pharaoh, "Is there indeed for us a reward if we are the predominant
26:42
قَالَ نَعَمۡ وَإِنَّكُمۡ إِذٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِينَ
He said, "Yes, and indeed, you will then be of those near [to me]
26:43
قَالَ لَهُم مُّوسَىٰٓ أَلۡقُواْ مَآ أَنتُم مُّلۡقُونَ
Moses said to them, "Throw whatever you will throw
26:44
فَأَلۡقَوۡاْ حِبَالَهُمۡ وَعِصِيَّهُمۡ وَقَالُواْ بِعِزَّةِ فِرۡعَوۡنَ إِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبُونَ
So they threw their ropes and their staffs and said, "By the might of Pharaoh, indeed it is we who are predominant
26:45
فَأَلۡقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلۡقَفُ مَا يَأۡفِكُونَ
Then Moses threw his staff, and at once it devoured what they falsified
26:46
فَأُلۡقِيَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ سَٰجِدِينَ
So the magicians fell down in prostration [to Allah]
26:47
قَالُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا بِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
They said, "We have believed in the Lord of the worlds
26:48
رَبِّ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ
The Lord of Moses and Aaron
26:49
قَالَ ءَامَنتُمۡ لَهُۥ قَبۡلَ أَنۡ ءَاذَنَ لَكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ ٱلَّذِي عَلَّمَكُمُ ٱلسِّحۡرَ فَلَسَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَۚ لَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيۡدِيَكُمۡ وَأَرۡجُلَكُم مِّنۡ خِلَٰفٖ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ
[Pharaoh] said, "You believed Moses before I gave you permission. Indeed, he is your leader who has taught you magic, but you are going to know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will surely crucify you all
26:50
قَالُواْ لَا ضَيۡرَۖ إِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا مُنقَلِبُونَ
They said, "No harm. Indeed, to our Lord we will return
26:51
إِنَّا نَطۡمَعُ أَن يَغۡفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطَٰيَٰنَآ أَن كُنَّآ أَوَّلَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers
26:52
۞وَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنۡ أَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِيٓ إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ
And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued
26:53
فَأَرۡسَلَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ فِي ٱلۡمَدَآئِنِ حَٰشِرِينَ
Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers
26:54
إِنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَشِرۡذِمَةٞ قَلِيلُونَ
[And said], "Indeed, those are but a small band
26:55
وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَنَا لَغَآئِظُونَ
And indeed, they are enraging us
26:56
وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَٰذِرُونَ
And indeed, we are a cautious society
26:57
فَأَخۡرَجۡنَٰهُم مِّن جَنَّـٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ
So We removed them from gardens and springs
26:58
وَكُنُوزٖ وَمَقَامٖ كَرِيمٖ
And treasures and honorable station
26:59
كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَـٰٓءِيلَ
Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel
26:60
فَأَتۡبَعُوهُم مُّشۡرِقِينَ
So they pursued them at sunrise
26:61
فَلَمَّا تَرَـٰٓءَا ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِ قَالَ أَصۡحَٰبُ مُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّا لَمُدۡرَكُونَ
And when the two companies saw one another, the companions of Moses said, "Indeed, we are to be overtaken
26:62
قَالَ كَلَّآۖ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهۡدِينِ
[Moses] said, "No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me
26:63
فَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱضۡرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلۡبَحۡرَۖ فَٱنفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرۡقٖ كَٱلطَّوۡدِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
Then We inspired to Moses, "Strike with your staff the sea," and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain
26:64
وَأَزۡلَفۡنَا ثَمَّ ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ
And We advanced thereto the pursuers
26:65
وَأَنجَيۡنَا مُوسَىٰ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ
And We saved Moses and those with him, all together
26:66
ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ
Then We drowned the others
26:67
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
26:68
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
26:69
وَٱتۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ نَبَأَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ
And recite to them the news of Abraham
26:70
إِذۡ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوۡمِهِۦ مَا تَعۡبُدُونَ
When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship
26:71
قَالُواْ نَعۡبُدُ أَصۡنَامٗا فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَٰكِفِينَ
They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted
26:72
قَالَ هَلۡ يَسۡمَعُونَكُمۡ إِذۡ تَدۡعُونَ
He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate
26:73
أَوۡ يَنفَعُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَضُرُّونَ
Or do they benefit you, or do they harm
26:74
قَالُواْ بَلۡ وَجَدۡنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفۡعَلُونَ
They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus
26:75
قَالَ أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُونَ
He said, "Then do you see what you have been worshipping
26:76
أَنتُمۡ وَءَابَآؤُكُمُ ٱلۡأَقۡدَمُونَ
You and your ancient forefathers
26:77
فَإِنَّهُمۡ عَدُوّٞ لِّيٓ إِلَّا رَبَّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds
26:78
ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَنِي فَهُوَ يَهۡدِينِ
Who created me, and He [it is who] guides me
26:79
وَٱلَّذِي هُوَ يُطۡعِمُنِي وَيَسۡقِينِ
And it is He who feeds me and gives me drink
26:80
وَإِذَا مَرِضۡتُ فَهُوَ يَشۡفِينِ
And when I am ill, it is He who cures me
26:81
وَٱلَّذِي يُمِيتُنِي ثُمَّ يُحۡيِينِ
And who will cause me to die and then bring me to life
26:82
وَٱلَّذِيٓ أَطۡمَعُ أَن يَغۡفِرَ لِي خَطِيٓـَٔتِي يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ
And who I aspire that He will forgive me my sin on the Day of Recompense
26:83
رَبِّ هَبۡ لِي حُكۡمٗا وَأَلۡحِقۡنِي بِٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
[And he said], "My Lord, grant me authority and join me with the righteous
26:84
وَٱجۡعَل لِّي لِسَانَ صِدۡقٖ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ
And grant me a reputation of honor among later generations
26:85
وَٱجۡعَلۡنِي مِن وَرَثَةِ جَنَّةِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
And place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Pleasure
26:86
وَٱغۡفِرۡ لِأَبِيٓ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ
And forgive my father. Indeed, he has been of those astray
26:87
وَلَا تُخۡزِنِي يَوۡمَ يُبۡعَثُونَ
And do not disgrace me on the Day they are [all] resurrected
26:88
يَوۡمَ لَا يَنفَعُ مَالٞ وَلَا بَنُونَ
The Day when there will not benefit [anyone] wealth or children
26:89
إِلَّا مَنۡ أَتَى ٱللَّهَ بِقَلۡبٖ سَلِيمٖ
But only one who comes to Allah with a sound heart
26:90
وَأُزۡلِفَتِ ٱلۡجَنَّةُ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ
And Paradise will be brought near [that Day] to the righteous
26:91
وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلۡجَحِيمُ لِلۡغَاوِينَ
And Hellfire will be brought forth for the deviators
26:92
وَقِيلَ لَهُمۡ أَيۡنَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُونَ
And it will be said to them, "Where are those you used to worship
26:93
مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ هَلۡ يَنصُرُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَنتَصِرُونَ
Other than Allah? Can they help you or help themselves
26:94
فَكُبۡكِبُواْ فِيهَا هُمۡ وَٱلۡغَاوُۥنَ
So they will be overturned into Hellfire, they and the deviators
26:95
وَجُنُودُ إِبۡلِيسَ أَجۡمَعُونَ
And the soldiers of Iblees, all together
26:96
قَالُواْ وَهُمۡ فِيهَا يَخۡتَصِمُونَ
They will say while they dispute therein
26:97
تَٱللَّهِ إِن كُنَّا لَفِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٍ
By Allah, we were indeed in manifest error
26:98
إِذۡ نُسَوِّيكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
When we equated you with the Lord of the worlds
26:99
وَمَآ أَضَلَّنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ
And no one misguided us except the criminals
26:100
فَمَا لَنَا مِن شَٰفِعِينَ
So now we have no intercessors
26:101
وَلَا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٖ
And not a devoted friend
26:102
فَلَوۡ أَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةٗ فَنَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
Then if we only had a return [to the world] and could be of the believers
26:103
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
26:104
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
26:105
كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ نُوحٍ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
The people of Noah denied the messengers
26:106
إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ نُوحٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
When their brother Noah said to them, "Will you not fear Allah
26:107
إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger
26:108
فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ
So fear Allah and obey me
26:109
وَمَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍۖ إِنۡ أَجۡرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

26:110
فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ
So fear Allah and obey me
26:111
۞قَالُوٓاْ أَنُؤۡمِنُ لَكَ وَٱتَّبَعَكَ ٱلۡأَرۡذَلُونَ
They said, "Should we believe you while you are followed by the lowest [class of people]
26:112
قَالَ وَمَا عِلۡمِي بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ
He said, "And what is my knowledge of what they used to do
26:113
إِنۡ حِسَابُهُمۡ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّيۖ لَوۡ تَشۡعُرُونَ
Their account is only upon my Lord, if you [could] perceive
26:114
وَمَآ أَنَا۠ بِطَارِدِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
And I am not one to drive away the believers
26:115
إِنۡ أَنَا۠ إِلَّا نَذِيرٞ مُّبِينٞ
I am only a clear warner

قَالُواْ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهِ يَٰنُوحُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡمَرۡجُومِينَ
They said, "If you do not desist, O Noah, you will surely be of those who are stoned
26:117
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنَّ قَوۡمِي كَذَّبُونِ
He said, "My Lord, indeed my people have denied me
26:118
فَٱفۡتَحۡ بَيۡنِي وَبَيۡنَهُمۡ فَتۡحٗا وَنَجِّنِي وَمَن مَّعِيَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
Then judge between me and them with decisive judgement and save me and those with me of the believers
26:119
فَأَنجَيۡنَٰهُ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥ فِي ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ
So We saved him and those with him in the laden ship
26:120
ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا بَعۡدُ ٱلۡبَاقِينَ
Then We drowned thereafter the remaining ones
26:121
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
26:122
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
26:123
كَذَّبَتۡ عَادٌ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
Aad denied the messengers
26:124
إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ هُودٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
When their brother Hud said to them, "Will you not fear Allah
26:125
إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ

26:195
بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِيّٖ مُّبِينٖ
In a clear Arabic language
26:196
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَفِي زُبُرِ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples
26:197
أَوَلَمۡ يَكُن لَّهُمۡ ءَايَةً أَن يَعۡلَمَهُۥ عُلَمَـٰٓؤُاْ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَـٰٓءِيلَ

26:198
وَلَوۡ نَزَّلۡنَٰهُ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضِ ٱلۡأَعۡجَمِينَ
And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners
26:199
فَقَرَأَهُۥ عَلَيۡهِم مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ مُؤۡمِنِينَ
And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it
26:200
كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكۡنَٰهُ فِي قُلُوبِ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ
Thus have We inserted disbelief into the hearts of the criminals

26:203
فَيَقُولُواْ هَلۡ نَحۡنُ مُنظَرُونَ
And they will say, "May we be reprieved
26:204
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ
So for Our punishment are they impatient
26:205
أَفَرَءَيۡتَ إِن مَّتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ سِنِينَ
Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years
26:206
ثُمَّ جَآءَهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يُوعَدُونَ
And then there came to them that which they were promised
26:207
مَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يُمَتَّعُونَ
They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided
26:208
وَمَآ أَهۡلَكۡنَا مِن قَرۡيَةٍ إِلَّا لَهَا مُنذِرُونَ
And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners
26:209
ذِكۡرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَٰلِمِينَ
As a reminder; and never have We been unjust
26:210
وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتۡ بِهِ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ
And the devils have not brought the revelation down
26:211
وَمَا يَنۢبَغِي لَهُمۡ وَمَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ
It is not allowable for them, nor would they be able
26:212
إِنَّهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلسَّمۡعِ لَمَعۡزُولُونَ
Indeed they, from [its] hearing, are removed
26:213
فَلَا تَدۡعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُعَذَّبِينَ
So do not invoke with Allah another deity and [thus] be among the punished
26:214
وَأَنذِرۡ عَشِيرَتَكَ ٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ
And warn, [O Muhammad], your closest kindred
26:215
وَٱخۡفِضۡ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
And lower your wing to those who follow you of the believers
26:216
فَإِنۡ عَصَوۡكَ فَقُلۡ إِنِّي بَرِيٓءٞ مِّمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ
And if they disobey you, then say, "Indeed, I am disassociated from what you are doing
26:217
وَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
And rely upon the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
26:218
ٱلَّذِي يَرَىٰكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ
Who sees you when you arise
26:219
وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِي ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ
And your movement among those who prostrate
26:220
إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ
Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing
26:221
هَلۡ أُنَبِّئُكُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ
Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend
26:222
تَنَزَّلُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٖ
They descend upon every sinful liar
26:223
يُلۡقُونَ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَأَكۡثَرُهُمۡ كَٰذِبُونَ
They pass on what is heard, and most of them are liars
26:224
وَٱلشُّعَرَآءُ يَتَّبِعُهُمُ ٱلۡغَاوُۥنَ
And the poets - [only] the deviators follow them
26:225
أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّهُمۡ فِي كُلِّ وَادٖ يَهِيمُونَ
Do you not see that in every valley they roam
26:226
وَأَنَّهُمۡ يَقُولُونَ مَا لَا يَفۡعَلُونَ
And that they say what they do not do
26:227
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَٰتِ وَذَكَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرٗا وَٱنتَصَرُواْ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا ظُلِمُواْۗ وَسَيَعۡلَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓاْ أَيَّ مُنقَلَبٖ يَنقَلِبُونَ
Except those [poets] who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allah often and defend [the Muslims] after they were wronged. And those who have wronged are going to know to what [kind of] return they will be returned
