Surah Al Hijr
Ayah - , Makkah
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur'an.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And they say, "O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful?"
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
We do not send down the angels except with truth; and the disbelievers would not then be reprieved.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muhammad], among the sects of the former peoples.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And no messenger would come to them except that they ridiculed him.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Thus do We insert denial into the hearts of the criminals.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
They will not believe in it, while there has already occurred the precedent of the former peoples.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend,
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
They would say, "Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We have protected it from every devil expelled [from the mercy of Allah]
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And the earth - We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well-balanced thing.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We have sent the fertilizing winds and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come].
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And indeed, your Lord will gather them; indeed, He is Wise and Knowing.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And the jinn We created before from scorching fire.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely,
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Except Iblees, he refused to be with those who prostrated.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Allah] said, O Iblees, what is [the matter] with you that you are not with those who prostrate?"
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
He said, "Never would I prostrate to a human whom You created out of clay from an altered black mud."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Allah] said, "Then get out of it, for indeed, you are expelled.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Recompense."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Until the Day of the time well-known."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Iblees] said, "My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Except, among them, Your chosen servants."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Allah] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
It has seven gates; for every gate is of them a portion designated."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And inform them about the guests of Abraham,
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful of you."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform?"
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray?"
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals,
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Except his wife." Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And when the messengers came to the family of Lot,
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
He said, "Indeed, you are people unknown."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing,
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And we have come to you with truth, and indeed, we are truthful.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
So set out with your family during a portion of the night and follow behind them and let not anyone among you look back and continue on to where you are commanded."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We conveyed to him [the decree] of that matter: that those [sinners] would be eliminated by early morning.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And the people of the city came rejoicing.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Lot] said, "Indeed, these are my guests, so do not shame me.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And fear Allah and do not disgrace me."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
They said, "Have we not forbidden you from [protecting] people?"
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
[Lot] said, "These are my daughters - if you would be doers [of lawful marriage]."
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
By your life, [O Muhammad], indeed they were, in their intoxication, wandering blindly.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
So the shriek seized them at sunrise.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We made the highest part [of the city] its lowest and rained upon them stones of hard clay.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Indeed in that are signs for those who discern.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And indeed, those cities are [situated] on an established road.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Indeed in that is a sign for the believers.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And the companions of the thicket were [also] wrongdoers.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
So We took retribution from them, and indeed, both [cities] are on a clear highway.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And certainly did the companions of Thamud deny the messengers.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We gave them Our signs, but from them they were turning away.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And they used to carve from the mountains, houses, feeling secure.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
But the shriek seized them at early morning.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
So nothing availed them [from] what they used to earn.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We have not created the heavens and earth and that between them except in truth. And indeed, the Hour is coming; so forgive with gracious forgiveness.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Indeed, your Lord - He is the Knowing Creator.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We have certainly given you, [O Muhammad], seven of the often repeated [verses] and the great Qur'an.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [certain] categories of the disbelievers, and do not grieve over them. And lower your wing to the believers
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And say, "Indeed, I am the clear warner" -
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Just as We had revealed [scriptures] to the separators
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Who have made the Qur'an into portions.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
So by your Lord, We will surely question them all
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
About what they used to do.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Then declare what you are commanded and turn away from the polytheists.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Indeed, We are sufficient for you against the mockers
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
Who make [equal] with Allah another deity. But they are going to know.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And We already know that your breast is constrained by what they say.
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
So exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord and be of those who prostrate [to Him].
SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL
And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (death).
