بِسْمِ In (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ the Most Gracious ٱلرَّحِيمِ the Most Merciful

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

٦:١

ٱلْحَمْدُ (All) the praises and thanks لِلَّهِ (be) to Allah ٱلَّذِى the One Who خَلَقَ created ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضَ and the earth وَجَعَلَ and made ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ the darkness[es] وَٱلنُّورَ ۖ and the light ثُمَّ Then ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved بِرَبِّهِمْ in their Lord يَعْدِلُونَ equate others with Him ١ (1)

[All] praise is [due] to Allāh, who created the heavens and the earth and made the darkness and the light. Then those who disbelieve equate [others] with their Lord.

٦:٢

هُوَ He ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who خَلَقَكُم created you مِّن from طِينٍۢ clay ثُمَّ then قَضَىٰٓ He decreed أَجَلًۭا ۖ a term وَأَجَلٌۭ and a term مُّسَمًّى specified عِندَهُۥ ۖ with Him ثُمَّ yet أَنتُمْ you تَمْتَرُونَ doubt ٢ (2)

It is He who created you from clay and then decreed a term and a specified time [known] to Him; then [still] you are in dispute.

٦:٣

وَهُوَ And He ٱللَّهُ (is) Allah فِى in ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَفِى and in ٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ the earth يَعْلَمُ He knows سِرَّكُمْ your secret وَجَهْرَكُمْ and what you make public وَيَعْلَمُ and He knows مَا what تَكْسِبُونَ you earn ٣ (3)

And He is Allāh, [the only deity] in the heavens and the earth. He knows your secret and what you make public, and He knows that which you earn.

٦:٤

وَمَا And not تَأْتِيهِم comes to them مِّنْ [of] ءَايَةٍۢ any sign مِّنْ from ءَايَـٰتِ (the) Signs رَبِّهِمْ (of) their Lord إِلَّا but كَانُوا۟ they are عَنْهَا from it مُعْرِضِينَ turning away ٤ (4)

And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they turn away therefrom.

٦:٥

فَقَدْ Then indeed كَذَّبُوا۟ they denied بِٱلْحَقِّ the truth لَمَّا when جَآءَهُمْ ۖ it came to them فَسَوْفَ but soon يَأْتِيهِمْ will come to them أَنۢبَـٰٓؤُا۟ news مَا (of) what كَانُوا۟ they used to بِهِۦ [at it] يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ mock ٥ (5)

For they had denied the truth when it came to them, but there is going to reach them the news of what they used to ridicule.

٦:٦

أَلَمْ Did not يَرَوْا۟ they see كَمْ how many أَهْلَكْنَا We destroyed مِن from قَبْلِهِم before them مِّن of قَرْنٍۢ generations مَّكَّنَّـٰهُمْ We had established them فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth مَا what لَمْ not نُمَكِّن We (have) established لَّكُمْ for you وَأَرْسَلْنَا And We sent ٱلسَّمَآءَ (rain from) the sky عَلَيْهِم upon them مِّدْرَارًۭا showering abundantly وَجَعَلْنَا and We made ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرَ the rivers تَجْرِى flow مِن from تَحْتِهِمْ underneath them فَأَهْلَكْنَـٰهُم Then We destroyed them بِذُنُوبِهِمْ for their sins وَأَنشَأْنَا and We raised مِنۢ from بَعْدِهِمْ after them قَرْنًا generations ءَاخَرِينَ other ٦ (6)

Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them which We had established upon the earth as We have not established you? And We sent [rain from] the sky upon them in showers and made rivers flow beneath them; then We destroyed them for their sins and brought forth after them a generation of others.

٦:٧

وَلَوْ And (even) if نَزَّلْنَا We (had) sent down عَلَيْكَ to you كِتَـٰبًۭا a written Scripture فِى in قِرْطَاسٍۢ a parchment فَلَمَسُوهُ and they touched it بِأَيْدِيهِمْ with their hands لَقَالَ surely (would) have said ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوٓا۟ disbelieved إِنْ Not هَـٰذَآ (is) this إِلَّا but سِحْرٌۭ magic مُّبِينٌۭ clear ٧ (7)

And even if We had sent down to you, [O Muḥammad], a written scripture on a page and they touched it with their hands, the disbelievers would say, "This is not but obvious magic."

٦:٨

وَقَالُوا۟ And they said لَوْلَآ Why has not been أُنزِلَ sent down عَلَيْهِ to him مَلَكٌۭ ۖ an Angel وَلَوْ And if أَنزَلْنَا We (had) sent down مَلَكًۭا an Angel لَّقُضِىَ surely (would) have been decided ٱلْأَمْرُ the matter ثُمَّ then لَا no يُنظَرُونَ respite would have been granted to them ٨ (8)

And they say, "Why was there not sent down to him an angel?"1 But if We had sent down an angel, the matter would have been decided; then they would not be reprieved.

٦:٩

وَلَوْ And if جَعَلْنَـٰهُ We had made him مَلَكًۭا an Angel لَّجَعَلْنَـٰهُ certainly We (would) have made him رَجُلًۭا a man وَلَلَبَسْنَا and certainly We (would) have obscured عَلَيْهِم to them مَّا what يَلْبِسُونَ they are obscuring ٩ (9)

And if We had made him [i.e., the messenger] an angel, We would have made him [appear as] a man, and We would have covered them with that in which they cover themselves [i.e., confusion and doubt].

٦:١٠

وَلَقَدِ And indeed ٱسْتُهْزِئَ were mocked بِرُسُلٍۢ Messengers مِّن from قَبْلِكَ before you فَحَاقَ but surrounded بِٱلَّذِينَ those who سَخِرُوا۟ scoffed مِنْهُم of them مَّا what كَانُوا۟ they used to بِهِۦ [at it] يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ mock ١٠ (10)

And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by that which they used to ridicule.

٦:١١

قُلْ Say سِيرُوا۟ Travel فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth ثُمَّ and ٱنظُرُوا۟ see كَيْفَ how كَانَ was عَـٰقِبَةُ (the) end ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ (of) the rejecters ١١ (11)

Say, "Travel through the land; then observe how was the end of the deniers."

٦:١٢

قُل Say لِّمَن To whom (belongs) مَّا what فِى (is) in ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ and the earth قُل Say لِّلَّهِ ۚ To Allah كَتَبَ He has decreed عَلَىٰ upon نَفْسِهِ Himself ٱلرَّحْمَةَ ۚ the Mercy لَيَجْمَعَنَّكُمْ Surely He will assemble you إِلَىٰ on يَوْمِ (the) Day ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ (of) the Resurrection لَا (there is) no رَيْبَ doubt فِيهِ ۚ about it ٱلَّذِينَ Those who خَسِرُوٓا۟ have lost أَنفُسَهُمْ themselves فَهُمْ then they لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe ١٢ (12)

Say, "To whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth?" Say, "To Allāh." He has decreed upon Himself mercy. He will surely assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt. Those who will lose themselves [that Day] do not believe.

٦:١٣

۞ وَلَهُۥ And for Him مَا (is) whatever سَكَنَ dwells فِى in ٱلَّيْلِ the night وَٱلنَّهَارِ ۚ and the day وَهُوَ and He ٱلسَّمِيعُ (is) All-Hearing ٱلْعَلِيمُ All-Knowing ١٣ (13)

And to Him belongs that which reposes by night and by day, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

٦:١٤

قُلْ Say أَغَيْرَ Is it other than ٱللَّهِ Allah أَتَّخِذُ I (should) take وَلِيًّۭا (as) a protector فَاطِرِ Creator ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ (of) the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضِ and the earth وَهُوَ while (it is) He يُطْعِمُ Who feeds وَلَا and not يُطْعَمُ ۗ He is fed قُلْ Say إِنِّىٓ Indeed I أُمِرْتُ [I] am commanded أَنْ that أَكُونَ I be أَوَّلَ (the) first مَنْ who أَسْلَمَ ۖ submits (to Allah) وَلَا and not تَكُونَنَّ be مِنَ of ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ the polytheists ١٤ (14)

Say, "Is it other than Allāh I should take as a protector, Creator of the heavens and earth, while it is He who feeds and is not fed?" Say, [O Muḥammad], "Indeed, I have been commanded to be the first [among you] who submit [to Allāh] and [was commanded], 'Do not ever be of the polytheists."

٦:١٥

قُلْ Say إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I أَخَافُ [I] fear إِنْ if عَصَيْتُ I disobeyed رَبِّى my Lord عَذَابَ punishment يَوْمٍ (of) a Day عَظِيمٍۢ Mighty ١٥ (15)

Say, "Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."

٦:١٦

مَّن Whoever يُصْرَفْ is averted عَنْهُ from it يَوْمَئِذٍۢ that Day فَقَدْ then surely رَحِمَهُۥ ۚ He had Mercy on him وَذَٰلِكَ And that ٱلْفَوْزُ (is) the success ٱلْمُبِينُ (the) clear ١٦ (16)

He from whom it is averted that Day - [Allāh] has granted him mercy. And that is the clear attainment.

٦:١٧

وَإِن And if يَمْسَسْكَ touches you ٱللَّهُ Allah بِضُرٍّۢ with affliction فَلَا then no كَاشِفَ remover لَهُۥٓ of it إِلَّا except هُوَ ۖ Him وَإِن And if يَمْسَسْكَ He touches you بِخَيْرٍۢ with good فَهُوَ then He عَلَىٰ (is) on كُلِّ every شَىْءٍۢ thing قَدِيرٌۭ All-Powerful ١٧ (17)

And if Allāh should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him. And if He touches you with good - then He is over all things competent.

٦:١٨

وَهُوَ And He ٱلْقَاهِرُ (is) the Subjugator فَوْقَ over عِبَادِهِۦ ۚ His slaves وَهُوَ And He ٱلْحَكِيمُ (is) the All-Wise ٱلْخَبِيرُ the All-Aware ١٨ (18)

And He is the subjugator over His servants. And He is the Wise, the Aware.

٦:١٩

قُلْ Say أَىُّ What شَىْءٍ thing أَكْبَرُ (is) greatest شَهَـٰدَةًۭ ۖ (as) a testimony قُلِ Say ٱللَّهُ ۖ Allah شَهِيدٌۢ (is) Witness بَيْنِى between me وَبَيْنَكُمْ ۚ and between you وَأُوحِىَ and has been revealed إِلَىَّ to me هَـٰذَا this ٱلْقُرْءَانُ [the] Quran لِأُنذِرَكُم that I may warn you بِهِۦ with it وَمَنۢ and whoever بَلَغَ ۚ it reaches أَئِنَّكُمْ Do you truly لَتَشْهَدُونَ testify أَنَّ that مَعَ with ٱللَّهِ Allah ءَالِهَةً (there are) gods أُخْرَىٰ ۚ other قُل Say لَّآ Not أَشْهَدُ ۚ (do) I testify قُلْ Say إِنَّمَا Only هُوَ He إِلَـٰهٌۭ (is) God وَٰحِدٌۭ One وَإِنَّنِى and indeed, I am بَرِىٓءٌۭ free مِّمَّا of what تُشْرِكُونَ you associate (with Him) ١٩ (19)

Say, "What thing is greatest in testimony?" Say, "Allāh is witness between me and you. And this Qur’ān was revealed to me that I may warn you thereby and whomever it reaches. Do you [truly] testify that with Allāh there are other deities?" Say, "I will not testify [with you]." Say, "Indeed, He is but one God, and indeed, I am free of what you associate [with Him]."

٦:٢٠

ٱلَّذِينَ Those (to) whom ءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمُ We have given them ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book يَعْرِفُونَهُۥ they recognize him كَمَا as يَعْرِفُونَ they recognize أَبْنَآءَهُمُ ۘ their sons ٱلَّذِينَ Those who خَسِرُوٓا۟ lost أَنفُسَهُمْ themselves فَهُمْ then they لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe ٢٠ (20)

Those to whom We have given the Scripture recognize it as they recognize their [own] sons. Those who will lose themselves [in the Hereafter] do not believe.

٦:٢١

وَمَنْ And who أَظْلَمُ (is) more unjust مِمَّنِ than (he) who ٱفْتَرَىٰ invents عَلَى against ٱللَّهِ Allah كَذِبًا a lie أَوْ or كَذَّبَ rejects بِـَٔايَـٰتِهِۦٓ ۗ His Signs إِنَّهُۥ Indeed لَا not يُفْلِحُ will be successful ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ the wrongdoers ٢١ (21)

And who is more unjust than one who invents about Allāh a lie or denies His verses? Indeed, the wrongdoers will not succeed.

٦:٢٢

وَيَوْمَ And (the) Day نَحْشُرُهُمْ We will gather them جَمِيعًۭا all ثُمَّ then نَقُولُ We will say لِلَّذِينَ to those who أَشْرَكُوٓا۟ associated others with Allah أَيْنَ Where (are) شُرَكَآؤُكُمُ your partners ٱلَّذِينَ those whom كُنتُمْ you used to تَزْعُمُونَ claim ٢٢ (22)

And [mention, O Muḥammad], the Day We will gather them all together; then We will say to those who associated others with Allāh, "Where are your 'partners' that you used to claim [with Him]?"

٦:٢٣

ثُمَّ Then لَمْ not تَكُن will be فِتْنَتُهُمْ (for) them a plea إِلَّآ except أَن that قَالُوا۟ they say وَٱللَّهِ By Allah رَبِّنَا our Lord مَا not كُنَّا we were مُشْرِكِينَ those who associated others (with Allah) ٢٣ (23)

Then there will be no [excuse upon] examination except they will say, "By Allāh, our Lord, we were not those who associated."

٦:٢٤

ٱنظُرْ Look كَيْفَ how كَذَبُوا۟ they lied عَلَىٰٓ against أَنفُسِهِمْ ۚ themselves وَضَلَّ And lost عَنْهُم from them مَّا what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَفْتَرُونَ invent ٢٤ (24)

See how they will lie about themselves. And lost from them will be what they used to invent.

٦:٢٥

وَمِنْهُم And among them مَّن (are those) who يَسْتَمِعُ listen إِلَيْكَ ۖ to you وَجَعَلْنَا but We have placed عَلَىٰ over قُلُوبِهِمْ their hearts أَكِنَّةً coverings أَن lest يَفْقَهُوهُ they understand it وَفِىٓ and in ءَاذَانِهِمْ their ears وَقْرًۭا ۚ deafness وَإِن And if يَرَوْا۟ they see كُلَّ every ءَايَةٍۢ sign لَّا not يُؤْمِنُوا۟ will they believe بِهَا ۚ in it حَتَّىٰٓ Until إِذَا when جَآءُوكَ they come to you يُجَـٰدِلُونَكَ and argue with you يَقُولُ say ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوٓا۟ disbelieved إِنْ Not هَـٰذَآ (is) this إِلَّآ but أَسَـٰطِيرُ (the) tales ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ (of) the former (people) ٢٥ (25)

And among them are those who listen to you, but We have placed over their hearts coverings, lest they understand it, and in their ears deafness. And if they should see every sign, they will not believe in it. Even when they come to you arguing with you, those who disbelieve say, "This is not but legends of the former peoples."

٦:٢٦

وَهُمْ And they يَنْهَوْنَ forbid (others) عَنْهُ from it وَيَنْـَٔوْنَ and they keep away عَنْهُ ۖ from it وَإِن And not يُهْلِكُونَ they destroy إِلَّآ except أَنفُسَهُمْ themselves وَمَا and not يَشْعُرُونَ they perceive ٢٦ (26)

And they prevent [others] from him and are [themselves] remote from him. And they do not destroy except themselves, but they perceive [it] not.

٦:٢٧

وَلَوْ And if تَرَىٰٓ you (could) see إِذْ when وُقِفُوا۟ they are made to stand عَلَى by ٱلنَّارِ the Fire فَقَالُوا۟ then they (will) say يَـٰلَيْتَنَا Oh! Would that we نُرَدُّ were sent back وَلَا and not نُكَذِّبَ we would deny بِـَٔايَـٰتِ (the) Signs رَبِّنَا (of) our Lord وَنَكُونَ and we would be مِنَ among ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ the believers ٢٧ (27)

If you could but see when they are made to stand before the Fire and will say, "Oh, would that we could be returned [to life on earth] and not deny the signs of our Lord and be among the believers."

٦:٢٨

بَلْ Nay بَدَا became manifest لَهُم for them مَّا what كَانُوا۟ they used to يُخْفُونَ conceal مِن from قَبْلُ ۖ before وَلَوْ And if رُدُّوا۟ they were sent back لَعَادُوا۟ certainly they (would) return لِمَا to what نُهُوا۟ they were forbidden عَنْهُ from it وَإِنَّهُمْ and indeed they لَكَـٰذِبُونَ certainly are liars ٢٨ (28)

But what they concealed before has [now] appeared to them. And even if they were returned, they would return to that which they were forbidden; and indeed, they are liars.

٦:٢٩

وَقَالُوٓا۟ And they said إِنْ Not هِىَ it (is) إِلَّا except حَيَاتُنَا our life ٱلدُّنْيَا (of) the world وَمَا and not نَحْنُ we بِمَبْعُوثِينَ (will be) resurrected ٢٩ (29)

And they say, "There is none but our worldly life, and we will not be resurrected."

٦:٣٠

وَلَوْ And if تَرَىٰٓ you (could) see إِذْ when وُقِفُوا۟ they will be made to stand عَلَىٰ before رَبِّهِمْ ۚ their Lord قَالَ He (will) say أَلَيْسَ Is not هَـٰذَا this بِٱلْحَقِّ ۚ the truth قَالُوا۟ They will say بَلَىٰ Yes وَرَبِّنَا ۚ by our Lord قَالَ He (will) say فَذُوقُوا۟ So taste ٱلْعَذَابَ the punishment بِمَا because كُنتُمْ you used to تَكْفُرُونَ disbelieve ٣٠ (30)

If you could but see when they will be made to stand before their Lord. He will say, "Is this not the truth?" They will say, "Yes, by our Lord." He will [then] say, "So taste the punishment for what you used to deny."

٦:٣١

قَدْ Indeed خَسِرَ incurred loss ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَذَّبُوا۟ denied بِلِقَآءِ in (the) meeting ٱللَّهِ ۖ (with) Allah حَتَّىٰٓ until إِذَا when جَآءَتْهُمُ came to them ٱلسَّاعَةُ the Hour بَغْتَةًۭ suddenly قَالُوا۟ they said يَـٰحَسْرَتَنَا Oh! Our regret عَلَىٰ over مَا what فَرَّطْنَا we neglected فِيهَا concerning it وَهُمْ while they يَحْمِلُونَ will bear أَوْزَارَهُمْ their burdens عَلَىٰ on ظُهُورِهِمْ ۚ their backs أَلَا Unquestionably سَآءَ Evil مَا (is) what يَزِرُونَ they bear ٣١ (31)

Those will have lost who deny the meeting with Allāh, until when the Hour [of resurrection] comes upon them unexpectedly, they will say, "Oh, [how great is] our regret over what we neglected concerning it [i.e., the Hour]," while they bear their burdens [i.e., sins] on their backs. Unquestionably, evil is that which they bear.

٦:٣٢

وَمَا And not ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ (is) the life ٱلدُّنْيَآ (of) the world إِلَّا except لَعِبٌۭ a play وَلَهْوٌۭ ۖ and amusement وَلَلدَّارُ but the home ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةُ (of) the Hereafter خَيْرٌۭ (is) best لِّلَّذِينَ for those who يَتَّقُونَ ۗ (are) God conscious أَفَلَا Then not تَعْقِلُونَ (will) you reason ٣٢ (32)

And the worldly life is not but amusement and diversion; but the home of the Hereafter is best for those who fear Allāh, so will you not reason?

٦:٣٣

قَدْ Indeed نَعْلَمُ We know إِنَّهُۥ that it لَيَحْزُنُكَ grieves you ٱلَّذِى what يَقُولُونَ ۖ they say فَإِنَّهُمْ And indeed, they لَا (do) not يُكَذِّبُونَكَ deny you وَلَـٰكِنَّ but ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoers بِـَٔايَـٰتِ the Verses ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah يَجْحَدُونَ they reject ٣٣ (33)

We know that you, [O Muḥammad], are saddened by what they say. And indeed, they do not call you untruthful, but it is the verses of Allāh that the wrongdoers reject.

٦:٣٤

وَلَقَدْ And surely كُذِّبَتْ were rejected رُسُلٌۭ Messengers مِّن from قَبْلِكَ before you فَصَبَرُوا۟ but they were patient عَلَىٰ over مَا what كُذِّبُوا۟ they were rejected وَأُوذُوا۟ and they were harmed حَتَّىٰٓ until أَتَىٰهُمْ came to them نَصْرُنَا ۚ Our help وَلَا And no مُبَدِّلَ one (can) alter لِكَلِمَـٰتِ (the) words ٱللَّهِ ۚ (of) Allah وَلَقَدْ and surely جَآءَكَ has come to you مِن of نَّبَإِى۟ (the) news ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ (of) the Messengers ٣٤ (34)

And certainly were messengers denied before you, but they were patient over the denial, and they were harmed until Our victory came to them. And none can alter the words [i.e., decrees] of Allāh. And there has certainly come to you some information about the [previous] messengers.

٦:٣٥

وَإِن And if كَانَ is كَبُرَ difficult عَلَيْكَ for you إِعْرَاضُهُمْ their aversion فَإِنِ then if ٱسْتَطَعْتَ you are able أَن to تَبْتَغِىَ seek نَفَقًۭا a tunnel فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth أَوْ or سُلَّمًۭا a ladder فِى into ٱلسَّمَآءِ the sky فَتَأْتِيَهُم so that you bring to them بِـَٔايَةٍۢ ۚ a Sign وَلَوْ But if شَآءَ (had) willed ٱللَّهُ Allah لَجَمَعَهُمْ surely He (would) have gathered them عَلَى on ٱلْهُدَىٰ ۚ the guidance فَلَا So (do) not تَكُونَنَّ be مِنَ of ٱلْجَـٰهِلِينَ the ignorant ٣٥ (35)

And if their evasion is difficult for you, then if you are able to seek a tunnel into the earth or a stairway into the sky to bring them a sign, [then do so]. But if Allāh had willed, He would have united them upon guidance. So never be of the ignorant.

٦:٣٦

۞ إِنَّمَا Only يَسْتَجِيبُ respond ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَسْمَعُونَ ۘ listen وَٱلْمَوْتَىٰ But the dead يَبْعَثُهُمُ will resurrect them ٱللَّهُ Allah ثُمَّ then إِلَيْهِ to Him يُرْجَعُونَ they will be returned ٣٦ (36)

Only those who hear will respond. But the dead - Allāh will resurrect them; then to Him they will be returned.

٦:٣٧

وَقَالُوا۟ And they said لَوْلَا Why (is) not نُزِّلَ sent down عَلَيْهِ to him ءَايَةٌۭ a Sign مِّن from رَّبِّهِۦ ۚ his Lord قُلْ Say إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah قَادِرٌ (is) Able عَلَىٰٓ [on] أَن to يُنَزِّلَ send down ءَايَةًۭ a Sign وَلَـٰكِنَّ but أَكْثَرَهُمْ most of them لَا (do) not يَعْلَمُونَ know ٣٧ (37)

And they say, "Why has a sign not been sent down to him from his Lord?" Say, "Indeed, Allāh is Able to send down a sign, but most of them do not know."

٦:٣٨

وَمَا And not مِن [of] دَآبَّةٍۢ any animal فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth وَلَا and not طَـٰٓئِرٍۢ a bird يَطِيرُ (that) flies بِجَنَاحَيْهِ with its wings إِلَّآ but أُمَمٌ (are) communities أَمْثَالُكُم ۚ like you مَّا Not فَرَّطْنَا We have neglected فِى in ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ the Book مِن [of] شَىْءٍۢ ۚ anything ثُمَّ then إِلَىٰ to رَبِّهِمْ their Lord يُحْشَرُونَ they will be gathered ٣٨ (38)

And there is no creature on [or within] the earth or bird that flies with its wings except [that they are] communities like you. We have not neglected in the Register a thing. Then unto their Lord they will be gathered.

٦:٣٩

وَٱلَّذِينَ And those who كَذَّبُوا۟ rejected بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا Our Verses صُمٌّۭ (are) deaf وَبُكْمٌۭ and dumb فِى in ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ ۗ the darkness[es] مَن Whoever يَشَإِ wills ٱللَّهُ Allah يُضْلِلْهُ He lets him go astray وَمَن and whoever يَشَأْ He wills يَجْعَلْهُ He places him عَلَىٰ on صِرَٰطٍۢ (the) way مُّسْتَقِيمٍۢ (the) straight ٣٩ (39)

But those who deny Our verses are deaf and dumb within darknesses. Whomever Allāh wills - He sends astray; and whomever He wills - He puts him on a straight path.

٦:٤٠

قُلْ Say أَرَءَيْتَكُمْ Have you seen إِنْ if أَتَىٰكُمْ (there) came to you عَذَابُ punishment ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah أَوْ or أَتَتْكُمُ (there) came to you ٱلسَّاعَةُ the Hour أَغَيْرَ is it other ٱللَّهِ (than) Allah تَدْعُونَ you call إِن if كُنتُمْ you are صَـٰدِقِينَ truthful ٤٠ (40)

Say, "Have you considered: if there came to you the punishment of Allāh or there came to you the Hour - is it other than Allāh you would invoke, if you should be truthful?"

٦:٤١

بَلْ Nay إِيَّاهُ Him Alone تَدْعُونَ you call فَيَكْشِفُ and He would remove مَا what تَدْعُونَ you call إِلَيْهِ upon Him إِن if شَآءَ He wills وَتَنسَوْنَ and you will forget مَا what تُشْرِكُونَ you associate (with Him) ٤١ (41)

No, it is Him [alone] you would invoke, and He would remove that for which you invoked Him if He willed, and you would forget what you associate [with Him].

٦:٤٢

وَلَقَدْ And certainly أَرْسَلْنَآ We sent (Messengers) إِلَىٰٓ to أُمَمٍۢ nations مِّن from قَبْلِكَ before you فَأَخَذْنَـٰهُم then We seized them بِٱلْبَأْسَآءِ with adversity وَٱلضَّرَّآءِ and hardship لَعَلَّهُمْ so that they may يَتَضَرَّعُونَ humble themselves ٤٢ (42)

And We have already sent [messengers] to nations before you, [O Muḥammad]; then We seized them with poverty and hardship that perhaps they might humble themselves [to Us].

٦:٤٣

فَلَوْلَآ Then why not إِذْ when جَآءَهُم came to them بَأْسُنَا Our punishment تَضَرَّعُوا۟ they humbled themselves وَلَـٰكِن But قَسَتْ became hardened قُلُوبُهُمْ their hearts وَزَيَّنَ and made fair-seeming لَهُمُ to them ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ the Shaitaan مَا what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَعْمَلُونَ do ٤٣ (43)

Then why, when Our punishment came to them, did they not humble themselves? But their hearts became hardened, and Satan made attractive to them that which they were doing.

٦:٤٤

فَلَمَّا So when نَسُوا۟ they forgot مَا what ذُكِّرُوا۟ they were reminded بِهِۦ of [it] فَتَحْنَا We opened عَلَيْهِمْ on them أَبْوَٰبَ gates كُلِّ (of) every شَىْءٍ thing حَتَّىٰٓ until إِذَا when فَرِحُوا۟ they rejoiced بِمَآ in what أُوتُوٓا۟ they were given أَخَذْنَـٰهُم We seized them بَغْتَةًۭ suddenly فَإِذَا and then هُم they مُّبْلِسُونَ (were) dumbfounded ٤٤ (44)

So when they forgot that by which they had been reminded, We opened to them the doors of every [good] thing until, when they rejoiced in that which they were given, We seized them suddenly, and they were [then] in despair.

٦:٤٥

فَقُطِعَ So was cut off دَابِرُ (the) remnant ٱلْقَوْمِ (of) the people ٱلَّذِينَ [those] who ظَلَمُوا۟ ۚ did wrong وَٱلْحَمْدُ And all praises and thanks لِلَّهِ (be) to Allah رَبِّ Lord ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ (of) the worlds ٤٥ (45)

So the people that committed wrong were eliminated. And praise to Allāh, Lord of the worlds.

٦:٤٦

قُلْ Say أَرَءَيْتُمْ Have you seen إِنْ if أَخَذَ took away ٱللَّهُ Allah سَمْعَكُمْ your hearing وَأَبْصَـٰرَكُمْ and your sight وَخَتَمَ and sealed عَلَىٰ [on] قُلُوبِكُم your hearts مَّنْ who إِلَـٰهٌ (is the) god غَيْرُ other than ٱللَّهِ Allah يَأْتِيكُم to bring [back] to you بِهِ ۗ with it ٱنظُرْ See كَيْفَ how نُصَرِّفُ We explain ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Signs ثُمَّ yet هُمْ they يَصْدِفُونَ turn away ٤٦ (46)

Say, "Have you considered: if Allāh should take away your hearing and your sight and set a seal upon your hearts, which deity other than Allāh could bring them [back] to you?" Look how We diversify the verses; then they [still] turn away.

٦:٤٧

قُلْ Say أَرَءَيْتَكُمْ Have you seen إِنْ if أَتَىٰكُمْ comes to you عَذَابُ punishment ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah بَغْتَةً suddenly أَوْ or جَهْرَةً openly هَلْ will يُهْلَكُ (any) be destroyed إِلَّا except ٱلْقَوْمُ the people ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ the wrongdoers ٤٧ (47)

Say, "Have you considered: if the punishment of Allāh should come to you unexpectedly or manifestly, will any be destroyed but the wrongdoing people?"

٦:٤٨

وَمَا And not نُرْسِلُ We send ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ the Messengers إِلَّا except مُبَشِّرِينَ (as) bearer of glad tidings وَمُنذِرِينَ ۖ and (as) warners فَمَنْ So whoever ءَامَنَ believed وَأَصْلَحَ and reformed فَلَا then no خَوْفٌ fear عَلَيْهِمْ upon them وَلَا and not هُمْ they يَحْزَنُونَ will grieve ٤٨ (48)

And We send not the messengers except as bringers of good tidings and warners. So whoever believes and reforms - there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.

٦:٤٩

وَٱلَّذِينَ And those who كَذَّبُوا۟ denied بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا [in] Our Verses يَمَسُّهُمُ will touch them ٱلْعَذَابُ the punishment بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَفْسُقُونَ defiantly disobey ٤٩ (49)

But those who deny Our verses - the punishment will touch them for their defiant disobedience.

٦:٥٠

قُل Say لَّآ Not أَقُولُ (do) I say لَكُمْ to you عِندِى (that) with me خَزَآئِنُ (are the) treasures ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَلَآ and not أَعْلَمُ (that) I know ٱلْغَيْبَ the unseen وَلَآ and not أَقُولُ I say لَكُمْ to you إِنِّى that I (am) مَلَكٌ ۖ an Angel إِنْ Not أَتَّبِعُ (do) I follow إِلَّا except مَا what يُوحَىٰٓ is revealed إِلَىَّ ۚ to me قُلْ Say هَلْ Can يَسْتَوِى be equal ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ the blind وَٱلْبَصِيرُ ۚ and the seeing one أَفَلَا Then will not تَتَفَكَّرُونَ you give thought ٥٠ (50)

Say, [O Muḥammad], "I do not tell you that I have the depositories [containing the provision] of Allāh or that I know the unseen, nor do I tell you that I am an angel. I only follow what is revealed to me." Say, "Is the blind equivalent to the seeing? Then will you not give thought?"

٦:٥١

وَأَنذِرْ And warn بِهِ with it ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَخَافُونَ fear أَن that يُحْشَرُوٓا۟ they will be gathered إِلَىٰ to رَبِّهِمْ ۙ their Lord لَيْسَ not لَهُم for them مِّن of دُونِهِۦ other than Him وَلِىٌّۭ any protector وَلَا and not شَفِيعٌۭ any intercessor لَّعَلَّهُمْ so that they may يَتَّقُونَ (become) righteous ٥١ (51)

And warn by it [i.e., the Qur’ān] those who fear that they will be gathered before their Lord - for them besides Him will be no protector and no intercessor - that they might become righteous.

٦:٥٢

وَلَا And (do) not تَطْرُدِ send away ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَدْعُونَ call رَبَّهُم their Lord بِٱلْغَدَوٰةِ in the morning وَٱلْعَشِىِّ and the evening يُرِيدُونَ desiring وَجْهَهُۥ ۖ His Countenance مَا Not عَلَيْكَ (is) on you مِنْ of حِسَابِهِم their account مِّن [of] شَىْءٍۢ anything وَمَا and not مِنْ from حِسَابِكَ your account عَلَيْهِم on them مِّن [of] شَىْءٍۢ anything فَتَطْرُدَهُمْ So were you to send them away فَتَكُونَ then you would be مِنَ of ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoers ٥٢ (52)

And do not send away those who call upon their Lord morning and afternoon, seeking His face [i.e., favor]. Not upon you is anything of their account and not upon them is anything of your account. So were you to send them away, you would [then] be of the wrongdoers.

٦:٥٣

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus فَتَنَّا We try بَعْضَهُم some of them بِبَعْضٍۢ with others لِّيَقُولُوٓا۟ that they say أَهَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ Are these مَنَّ (whom has been) favored ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah عَلَيْهِم [upon them] مِّنۢ from بَيْنِنَآ ۗ among us أَلَيْسَ is not ٱللَّهُ Allah بِأَعْلَمَ most knowing بِٱلشَّـٰكِرِينَ of those who are grateful ٥٣ (53)

And thus We have tried some of them through others that they [i.e., the disbelievers] might say, "Is it these whom Allāh has favored among us?" Is not Allāh most knowing of those who are grateful?

٦:٥٤

وَإِذَا And when جَآءَكَ come to you ٱلَّذِينَ those who يُؤْمِنُونَ believe بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا in Our Verses فَقُلْ then say سَلَـٰمٌ Peace عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ (be) upon you كَتَبَ (Has) Prescribed رَبُّكُمْ your Lord عَلَىٰ upon نَفْسِهِ Himself ٱلرَّحْمَةَ ۖ the Mercy أَنَّهُۥ that he مَنْ who عَمِلَ does مِنكُمْ among you سُوٓءًۢا evil بِجَهَـٰلَةٍۢ in ignorance ثُمَّ then تَابَ repents مِنۢ from بَعْدِهِۦ after it وَأَصْلَحَ and reforms فَأَنَّهُۥ then, indeed He غَفُورٌۭ (is) Oft-Forgiving رَّحِيمٌۭ Most Merciful ٥٤ (54)

And when those come to you who believe in Our verses, say, "Peace be upon you. Your Lord has decreed upon Himself mercy: that any of you who does wrong out of ignorance and then repents after that and corrects himself - indeed, He is Forgiving and Merciful."

٦:٥٥

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus نُفَصِّلُ We explain ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Verses وَلِتَسْتَبِينَ so that becomes manifest سَبِيلُ (the) way ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ (of) the criminals ٥٥ (55)

And thus do We detail the verses, and [thus] the way of the criminals will become evident.

٦:٥٦

قُلْ Say إِنِّى Indeed I نُهِيتُ [I] am forbidden أَنْ that أَعْبُدَ I worship ٱلَّذِينَ those whom تَدْعُونَ you call مِن from دُونِ besides ٱللَّهِ ۚ Allah قُل Say لَّآ Not أَتَّبِعُ I follow أَهْوَآءَكُمْ ۙ your (vain) desires قَدْ certainly ضَلَلْتُ I would go astray إِذًۭا then وَمَآ and not أَنَا۠ I (would be) مِنَ from ٱلْمُهْتَدِينَ the guided-ones ٥٦ (56)

Say, "Indeed, I have been forbidden to worship those you invoke besides Allāh." Say, "I will not follow your desires, for I would then have gone astray, and I would not be of the [rightly] guided."

٦:٥٧

قُلْ Say إِنِّى Indeed, I (am) عَلَىٰ on بَيِّنَةٍۢ clear proof مِّن from رَّبِّى my Lord وَكَذَّبْتُم while you deny بِهِۦ ۚ [with] it مَا Not عِندِى I have مَا what تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ you seek to hasten بِهِۦٓ ۚ of it إِنِ Not ٱلْحُكْمُ (is) the decision إِلَّا except لِلَّهِ ۖ for Allah يَقُصُّ He relates ٱلْحَقَّ ۖ the truth وَهُوَ and He خَيْرُ (is the) best ٱلْفَـٰصِلِينَ (of) the Deciders ٥٧ (57)

Say, "Indeed, I am on clear evidence from my Lord, and you have denied it. I do not have that for which you are impatient. The decision is only for Allāh. He relates the truth, and He is the best of deciders."

٦:٥٨

قُل Say لَّوْ If أَنَّ that عِندِى (were) with me مَا what تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ you seek to hasten بِهِۦ of it لَقُضِىَ surely would have been decided ٱلْأَمْرُ the matter بَيْنِى between me وَبَيْنَكُمْ ۗ and between you وَٱللَّهُ And Allah أَعْلَمُ (is) most knowing بِٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ of the wrongdoers ٥٨ (58)

Say, "If I had that for which you are impatient, the matter would have been decided between me and you, but Allāh is most knowing of the wrongdoers."

٦:٥٩

۞ وَعِندَهُۥ And with Him مَفَاتِحُ (are the) keys ٱلْغَيْبِ (of) the unseen لَا no (one) يَعْلَمُهَآ knows them إِلَّا except هُوَ ۚ Him وَيَعْلَمُ And He knows مَا what فِى (is) in ٱلْبَرِّ the land وَٱلْبَحْرِ ۚ and in the sea وَمَا And not تَسْقُطُ falls مِن of وَرَقَةٍ any leaf إِلَّا but يَعْلَمُهَا He knows it وَلَا And not حَبَّةٍۢ a grain فِى in ظُلُمَـٰتِ the darkness[es] ٱلْأَرْضِ (of) the earth وَلَا and not رَطْبٍۢ moist وَلَا and not يَابِسٍ dry إِلَّا but فِى (is) in كِتَـٰبٍۢ a Record مُّبِينٍۢ Clear ٥٩ (59)

And with Him are the keys of the unseen; none knows them except Him. And He knows what is on the land and in the sea. Not a leaf falls but that He knows it. And no grain is there within the darknesses of the earth and no moist or dry [thing] but that it is [written] in a clear record.

٦:٦٠

وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who يَتَوَفَّىٰكُم takes your (soul) بِٱلَّيْلِ by the night وَيَعْلَمُ and He knows مَا what جَرَحْتُم you committed بِٱلنَّهَارِ by the day ثُمَّ Then يَبْعَثُكُمْ He raises you up فِيهِ therein لِيُقْضَىٰٓ so that is fulfilled أَجَلٌۭ (the) term مُّسَمًّۭى ۖ specified ثُمَّ Then إِلَيْهِ to Him مَرْجِعُكُمْ will be your return ثُمَّ then يُنَبِّئُكُم He will inform you بِمَا about what كُنتُمْ you used to تَعْمَلُونَ do ٦٠ (60)

And it is He who takes your souls by night and knows what you have committed by day. Then He revives you therein [i.e., by day] that a specified term may be fulfilled. Then to Him will be your return; then He will inform you about what you used to do.

٦:٦١

وَهُوَ And He ٱلْقَاهِرُ (is) the Subjugator فَوْقَ over عِبَادِهِۦ ۖ His slaves وَيُرْسِلُ and He sends عَلَيْكُمْ over you حَفَظَةً guardians حَتَّىٰٓ until إِذَا when جَآءَ comes أَحَدَكُمُ (to) anyone of you ٱلْمَوْتُ the death تَوَفَّتْهُ take him رُسُلُنَا Our messengers وَهُمْ and they لَا (do) not يُفَرِّطُونَ fail ٦١ (61)

And He is the subjugator over His servants, and He sends over you guardian-angels until, when death comes to one of you, Our messengers [i.e., angels of death] take him, and they do not fail [in their duties].

٦:٦٢

ثُمَّ Then رُدُّوٓا۟ they are returned إِلَى to ٱللَّهِ Allah مَوْلَىٰهُمُ their Protector ٱلْحَقِّ ۚ [the] True أَلَا Unquestionably لَهُ for Him ٱلْحُكْمُ (is) the judgment وَهُوَ And He أَسْرَعُ (is) swiftest ٱلْحَـٰسِبِينَ (of) the Reckoners ٦٢ (62)

Then they [i.e., His servants] are returned to Allāh, their true Lord. Unquestionably, His is the judgement, and He is the swiftest of accountants.

٦:٦٣

قُلْ Say مَن Who يُنَجِّيكُم saves you مِّن from ظُلُمَـٰتِ darkness[es] ٱلْبَرِّ (of) the land وَٱلْبَحْرِ and the sea تَدْعُونَهُۥ you call Him تَضَرُّعًۭا humbly وَخُفْيَةًۭ and secretly لَّئِنْ If أَنجَىٰنَا He saves us مِنْ from هَـٰذِهِۦ this لَنَكُونَنَّ surely we will be مِنَ from ٱلشَّـٰكِرِينَ the grateful ones ٦٣ (63)

Say, "Who rescues you from the darknesses of the land and sea [when] you call upon Him imploring [aloud] and privately, 'If He should save us from this [crisis], we will surely be among the thankful.'"

٦:٦٤

قُلِ Say ٱللَّهُ Allah يُنَجِّيكُم saves you مِّنْهَا from it وَمِن and from كُلِّ every كَرْبٍۢ distress ثُمَّ yet أَنتُمْ you تُشْرِكُونَ associate partners (with Allah) ٦٤ (64)

Say, "It is Allāh who saves you from it and from every distress; then you [still] associate others with Him."

٦:٦٥

قُلْ Say هُوَ He ٱلْقَادِرُ (is) All-Capable عَلَىٰٓ [on] أَن to يَبْعَثَ send عَلَيْكُمْ upon you عَذَابًۭا punishment مِّن from فَوْقِكُمْ above you أَوْ or مِن from تَحْتِ beneath أَرْجُلِكُمْ your feet أَوْ or يَلْبِسَكُمْ (to) confuse you شِيَعًۭا (into) sects وَيُذِيقَ and make (you) taste بَعْضَكُم some of you بَأْسَ violence بَعْضٍ ۗ (of) others ٱنظُرْ See كَيْفَ how نُصَرِّفُ We explain ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Signs لَعَلَّهُمْ so that they may يَفْقَهُونَ understand ٦٥ (65)

Say, "He is the [one] Able to send upon you affliction from above you or from beneath your feet or to confuse you [so you become] sects and make you taste the violence of one another." Look how We diversify the signs that they might understand.

٦:٦٦

وَكَذَّبَ But denied بِهِۦ it قَوْمُكَ your people وَهُوَ while it ٱلْحَقُّ ۚ (is) the truth قُل Say لَّسْتُ I am not عَلَيْكُم over you بِوَكِيلٍۢ a manager ٦٦ (66)

But your people have denied it while it is the truth. Say, "I am not over you a manager [i.e., authority]."

٦:٦٧

لِّكُلِّ For every نَبَإٍۢ news مُّسْتَقَرٌّۭ ۚ (is) a fixed time وَسَوْفَ and soon تَعْلَمُونَ you will know ٦٧ (67)

For every news [i.e., happening] is a finality; and you are going to know.

٦:٦٨

وَإِذَا And when رَأَيْتَ you see ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَخُوضُونَ engage (in vain talks) فِىٓ about ءَايَـٰتِنَا Our Verses فَأَعْرِضْ then turn away عَنْهُمْ from them حَتَّىٰ until يَخُوضُوا۟ they engage فِى in حَدِيثٍ a talk غَيْرِهِۦ ۚ other than it وَإِمَّا And if يُنسِيَنَّكَ causes you to forget ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ the Shaitaan فَلَا then (do) not تَقْعُدْ sit بَعْدَ after ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ the reminder مَعَ with ٱلْقَوْمِ the people ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoers ٦٨ (68)

And when you see those who engage in [offensive] discourse concerning Our verses, then turn away from them until they enter into another conversation. And if Satan should cause you to forget, then do not remain after the reminder with the wrongdoing people.

٦:٦٩

وَمَا And not عَلَى (is) on ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَتَّقُونَ fear (Allah) مِنْ of حِسَابِهِم their account مِّن [of] شَىْءٍۢ anything وَلَـٰكِن but ذِكْرَىٰ (for) reminder لَعَلَّهُمْ so that they may يَتَّقُونَ fear (Allah) ٦٩ (69)

And those who fear Allāh are not held accountable for them [i.e., the disbelievers] at all, but [only for] a reminder - that perhaps they will fear Him.

٦:٧٠

وَذَرِ And leave ٱلَّذِينَ those who ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ take دِينَهُمْ their religion لَعِبًۭا (as) a play وَلَهْوًۭا and amusement وَغَرَّتْهُمُ and deluded them ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ the life ٱلدُّنْيَا ۚ (of) the world وَذَكِّرْ But remind بِهِۦٓ with it أَن lest تُبْسَلَ is given up to destruction نَفْسٌۢ a soul بِمَا for what كَسَبَتْ it (has) earned لَيْسَ not لَهَا (is) for it مِن from دُونِ besides ٱللَّهِ Allah وَلِىٌّۭ any protector وَلَا and not شَفِيعٌۭ any intercessor وَإِن And if تَعْدِلْ it offers ransom كُلَّ every عَدْلٍۢ ransom لَّا not يُؤْخَذْ will it be taken مِنْهَآ ۗ from it أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those ٱلَّذِينَ (are) ones who أُبْسِلُوا۟ are given to destruction بِمَا for what كَسَبُوا۟ ۖ they earned لَهُمْ For them شَرَابٌۭ (will be) a drink مِّنْ of حَمِيمٍۢ boiling water وَعَذَابٌ and a punishment أَلِيمٌۢ painful بِمَا because كَانُوا۟ they used to يَكْفُرُونَ disbelieve ٧٠ (70)

And leave those who take their religion as amusement and diversion and whom the worldly life has deluded. But remind with it [i.e., the Qur’ān], lest a soul be given up to destruction for what it earned; it will have other than Allāh no protector and no intercessor. And if it should offer every compensation, it would not be taken from it [i.e., that soul]. Those are the ones who are given to destruction for what they have earned. For them will be a drink of scalding water and a painful punishment because they used to disbelieve.

٦:٧١

قُلْ Say أَنَدْعُوا۟ Shall we call مِن from دُونِ besides ٱللَّهِ Allah مَا what لَا not يَنفَعُنَا benefits us وَلَا and not يَضُرُّنَا harms us وَنُرَدُّ and we turn back عَلَىٰٓ on أَعْقَابِنَا our heels بَعْدَ after إِذْ [when] هَدَىٰنَا (has) guided us ٱللَّهُ Allah كَٱلَّذِى Like the one ٱسْتَهْوَتْهُ whom (has been) enticed ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ (by) the Shaitaan فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth حَيْرَانَ confused لَهُۥٓ he has أَصْحَـٰبٌۭ companions يَدْعُونَهُۥٓ who call him إِلَى towards ٱلْهُدَى the guidance ٱئْتِنَا ۗ 'Come to us.' قُلْ Say إِنَّ Indeed هُدَى (the) Guidance ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah هُوَ it ٱلْهُدَىٰ ۖ (is) the Guidance وَأُمِرْنَا and we have been commanded لِنُسْلِمَ that we submit لِرَبِّ to (the) Lord ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ (of) the worlds ٧١ (71)

Say, "Shall we invoke instead of Allāh that which neither benefits us nor harms us and be turned back on our heels after Allāh has guided us? [We would then be] like one whom the devils enticed [to wander] upon the earth confused, [while] he has companions inviting him to guidance, [calling], 'Come to us.'"2 Say, "Indeed, the guidance of Allāh is the [only] guidance; and we have been commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds.

٦:٧٢

وَأَنْ And to أَقِيمُوا۟ establish ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ the prayer وَٱتَّقُوهُ ۚ and fear Him وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One إِلَيْهِ to Him تُحْشَرُونَ you will be gathered ٧٢ (72)

And to establish prayer and fear Him." And it is He to whom you will be gathered.

٦:٧٣

وَهُوَ And (it is) He ٱلَّذِى Who خَلَقَ created ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضَ and the earth بِٱلْحَقِّ ۖ in truth وَيَوْمَ And (the) Day يَقُولُ He says كُن Be فَيَكُونُ ۚ and it is قَوْلُهُ His word ٱلْحَقُّ ۚ (is) the truth وَلَهُ And for Him ٱلْمُلْكُ (is) the Dominion يَوْمَ (on the) Day يُنفَخُ will be blown فِى in ٱلصُّورِ ۚ the trumpet عَـٰلِمُ (He is) All-Knower ٱلْغَيْبِ (of) the unseen وَٱلشَّهَـٰدَةِ ۚ and the seen وَهُوَ And He ٱلْحَكِيمُ (is) the All-Wise ٱلْخَبِيرُ the All-Aware ٧٣ (73)

And it is He who created the heavens and earth in truth. And the day [i.e., whenever] He says, "Be," and it is, His word is the truth. And His is the dominion [on] the Day the Horn is blown. [He is] Knower of the unseen and the witnessed; and He is the Wise, the Aware.

٦:٧٤

۞ وَإِذْ And when قَالَ said إِبْرَٰهِيمُ Ibrahim لِأَبِيهِ to his father ءَازَرَ Azar أَتَتَّخِذُ Do you take أَصْنَامًا idols ءَالِهَةً ۖ (as) gods إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I أَرَىٰكَ [I] see you وَقَوْمَكَ and your people فِى in ضَلَـٰلٍۢ error مُّبِينٍۢ manifest ٧٤ (74)

And [mention, O Muḥammad], when Abraham said to his father Āzar, "Do you take idols as deities? Indeed, I see you and your people to be in manifest error."

٦:٧٥

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus نُرِىٓ We show(ed) إِبْرَٰهِيمَ Ibrahim مَلَكُوتَ the kingdom ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ (of) the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضِ and the earth وَلِيَكُونَ so that he would be مِنَ among ٱلْمُوقِنِينَ the ones who are certain ٧٥ (75)

And thus did We show Abraham the realm of the heavens and the earth that he would be among the certain [in faith].

٦:٧٦

فَلَمَّا So when جَنَّ covered عَلَيْهِ over him ٱلَّيْلُ the night رَءَا he saw كَوْكَبًۭا ۖ a star قَالَ He said هَـٰذَا This رَبِّى ۖ (is) my Lord فَلَمَّآ But when أَفَلَ it set قَالَ he said لَآ Not أُحِبُّ (do) I like ٱلْـَٔافِلِينَ the ones that set ٧٦ (76)

So when the night covered him [with darkness], he saw a star. He said, "This is my lord."1 But when it set, he said, "I like not those that set [i.e., disappear]."

٦:٧٧

فَلَمَّا When رَءَا he saw ٱلْقَمَرَ the moon بَازِغًۭا rising قَالَ he said هَـٰذَا This رَبِّى ۖ (is) my Lord فَلَمَّآ But when أَفَلَ it set قَالَ he said لَئِن If لَّمْ (does) not يَهْدِنِى guide me رَبِّى my Lord لَأَكُونَنَّ I will surely be مِنَ among ٱلْقَوْمِ the people ٱلضَّآلِّينَ who went astray ٧٧ (77)

And when he saw the moon rising, he said, "This is my lord." But when it set, he said, "Unless my Lord guides me, I will surely be among the people gone astray."

٦:٧٨

فَلَمَّا When رَءَا he saw ٱلشَّمْسَ the sun بَازِغَةًۭ rising قَالَ he said هَـٰذَا This (is) رَبِّى my Lord هَـٰذَآ this (is) أَكْبَرُ ۖ greater فَلَمَّآ But when أَفَلَتْ it set قَالَ he said يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people إِنِّى Indeed, I am بَرِىٓءٌۭ free مِّمَّا of what تُشْرِكُونَ you associate (with Allah) ٧٨ (78)

And when he saw the sun rising, he said, "This is my lord; this is greater." But when it set, he said, "O my people, indeed I am free from what you associate with Allāh.

٦:٧٩

إِنِّى Indeed, I وَجَّهْتُ [I] have turned وَجْهِىَ my face لِلَّذِى to the One Who فَطَرَ created ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضَ and the earth حَنِيفًۭا ۖ (as) a true monotheist وَمَآ and not أَنَا۠ I (am) مِنَ of ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ the polytheists ٧٩ (79)

Indeed, I have turned my face [i.e., self] toward He who created the heavens and the earth, inclining toward truth, and I am not of those who associate others with Allāh."

٦:٨٠

وَحَآجَّهُۥ And argued with him قَوْمُهُۥ ۚ his people قَالَ He said أَتُحَـٰٓجُّوٓنِّى Do you argue with me فِى concerning ٱللَّهِ Allah وَقَدْ while certainly هَدَىٰنِ ۚ He has guided me وَلَآ And not أَخَافُ (do) I fear مَا what تُشْرِكُونَ you associate بِهِۦٓ with Him إِلَّآ unless أَن [that] يَشَآءَ wills رَبِّى my Lord شَيْـًۭٔا ۗ anything وَسِعَ Encompasses رَبِّى my Lord كُلَّ every شَىْءٍ thing عِلْمًا ۗ (in) knowledge أَفَلَا Then will not تَتَذَكَّرُونَ you take heed ٨٠ (80)

And his people argued with him. He said, "Do you argue with me concerning Allāh while He has guided me? And I fear not what you associate with Him [and will not be harmed] unless my Lord should will something. My Lord encompasses all things in knowledge; then will you not remember?

٦:٨١

وَكَيْفَ And how أَخَافُ could I fear مَآ what أَشْرَكْتُمْ you associate (with Allah) وَلَا while not تَخَافُونَ you fear أَنَّكُمْ that you أَشْرَكْتُم have associated بِٱللَّهِ with Allah مَا what لَمْ not يُنَزِّلْ did He send down بِهِۦ for it عَلَيْكُمْ to you سُلْطَـٰنًۭا ۚ any authority فَأَىُّ So which ٱلْفَرِيقَيْنِ (of) the two parties أَحَقُّ has more right بِٱلْأَمْنِ ۖ to security إِن if كُنتُمْ you تَعْلَمُونَ know ٨١ (81)

And how should I fear what you associate while you do not fear that you have associated with Allāh that for which He has not sent down to you any authority? So which of the two parties has more right to security, if you should know?"

٦:٨٢

ٱلَّذِينَ Those who ءَامَنُوا۟ believed وَلَمْ and (did) not يَلْبِسُوٓا۟ mix إِيمَـٰنَهُم their belief بِظُلْمٍ with wrong أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ those لَهُمُ for them ٱلْأَمْنُ (is) the security وَهُم and they مُّهْتَدُونَ (are) rightly guided ٨٢ (82)

They who believe and do not mix their belief with injustice - those will have security, and they are [rightly] guided.

٦:٨٣

وَتِلْكَ And this حُجَّتُنَآ (is) Our argument ءَاتَيْنَـٰهَآ We gave it إِبْرَٰهِيمَ (to) Ibrahim عَلَىٰ against قَوْمِهِۦ ۚ his people نَرْفَعُ We raise دَرَجَـٰتٍۢ (by) degrees مَّن whom نَّشَآءُ ۗ We will إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord حَكِيمٌ (is) All-Wise عَلِيمٌۭ All-Knowing ٨٣ (83)

And that was Our [conclusive] argument which We gave Abraham against his people. We raise by degrees whom We will. Indeed, your Lord is Wise and Knowing.

٦:٨٤

وَوَهَبْنَا And We bestowed لَهُۥٓ to him إِسْحَـٰقَ Isaac وَيَعْقُوبَ ۚ and Yaqub كُلًّا all هَدَيْنَا ۚ We guided وَنُوحًا And Nuh هَدَيْنَا We guided مِن from قَبْلُ ۖ before وَمِن and of ذُرِّيَّتِهِۦ his descendents دَاوُۥدَ Dawood وَسُلَيْمَـٰنَ and Sulaiman وَأَيُّوبَ and Ayyub وَيُوسُفَ and Yusuf وَمُوسَىٰ and Musa وَهَـٰرُونَ ۚ and Harun وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus نَجْزِى We reward ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ the good-doers ٨٤ (84)

And We gave to him [i.e., Abraham] Isaac and Jacob - all [of them] We guided. And Noah, We guided before; and among his descendants, David and Solomon and Job and Joseph and Moses and Aaron. Thus do We reward the doers of good.

٦:٨٥

وَزَكَرِيَّا And Zakariya وَيَحْيَىٰ and Yahya وَعِيسَىٰ and Isa وَإِلْيَاسَ ۖ and Elijah كُلٌّۭ all (were) مِّنَ of ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ the righteous ٨٥ (85)

And Zechariah and John and Jesus and Elias - and all were of the righteous.

٦:٨٦

وَإِسْمَـٰعِيلَ And Ishmael وَٱلْيَسَعَ and Elisha وَيُونُسَ and Yunus وَلُوطًۭا ۚ and Lut وَكُلًّۭا and all فَضَّلْنَا We preferred عَلَى over ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ the worlds ٨٦ (86)

And Ishmael and Elisha and Jonah and Lot - and all [of them] We preferred over the worlds.

٦:٨٧

وَمِنْ And from ءَابَآئِهِمْ their fathers وَذُرِّيَّـٰتِهِمْ and their descendents وَإِخْوَٰنِهِمْ ۖ and their brothers وَٱجْتَبَيْنَـٰهُمْ and We chose them وَهَدَيْنَـٰهُمْ and We guided them إِلَىٰ to صِرَٰطٍۢ a path مُّسْتَقِيمٍۢ straight ٨٧ (87)

And [some] among their fathers and their descendants and their brothers - and We chose them and We guided them to a straight path.

٦:٨٨

ذَٰلِكَ That هُدَى (is the) Guidance ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah يَهْدِى He guides بِهِۦ with it مَن whom يَشَآءُ He wills مِنْ of عِبَادِهِۦ ۚ His slaves وَلَوْ But if أَشْرَكُوا۟ they (had) associated partners (with Allah) لَحَبِطَ surely (would be) worthless عَنْهُم for them مَّا what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَعْمَلُونَ do ٨٨ (88)

That is the guidance of Allāh by which He guides whomever He wills of His servants. But if they had associated others with Allāh, then worthless for them would be whatever they were doing.

٦:٨٩

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those ٱلَّذِينَ (are) ones whom ءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمُ We gave them ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book وَٱلْحُكْمَ and the judgment وَٱلنُّبُوَّةَ ۚ and the Prophethood فَإِن But if يَكْفُرْ disbelieve بِهَا in it هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ these فَقَدْ then indeed وَكَّلْنَا We have entrusted بِهَا it قَوْمًۭا (to) a people لَّيْسُوا۟ who are not بِهَا therein بِكَـٰفِرِينَ disbelievers ٨٩ (89)

Those are the ones to whom We gave the Scripture and authority and prophethood. But if they [i.e., the disbelievers] deny it, then We have entrusted it to a people who are not therein disbelievers.

٦:٩٠

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those ٱلَّذِينَ (are) ones whom هَدَى (have been) guided ٱللَّهُ ۖ (by) Allah فَبِهُدَىٰهُمُ so of their guidance ٱقْتَدِهْ ۗ you follow قُل Say لَّآ Not أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ I ask you عَلَيْهِ for it أَجْرًا ۖ any reward إِنْ Not هُوَ (is) it إِلَّا but ذِكْرَىٰ a reminder لِلْعَـٰلَمِينَ for the worlds ٩٠ (90)

Those are the ones whom Allāh has guided, so from their guidance take an example. Say, "I ask of you for it [i.e., this message] no payment. It is not but a reminder for the worlds."

٦:٩١

وَمَا And not قَدَرُوا۟ they appraised ٱللَّهَ Allah حَقَّ (with) true قَدْرِهِۦٓ [of his] appraisal إِذْ when قَالُوا۟ they said مَآ Not أَنزَلَ revealed ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah عَلَىٰ on بَشَرٍۢ a human being مِّن [of] شَىْءٍۢ ۗ anything قُلْ Say مَنْ Who أَنزَلَ revealed ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book ٱلَّذِى which جَآءَ brought بِهِۦ [it] مُوسَىٰ Musa نُورًۭا (as) a light وَهُدًۭى and guidance لِّلنَّاسِ ۖ for the people تَجْعَلُونَهُۥ You make it قَرَاطِيسَ (into) parchments تُبْدُونَهَا you disclose (some of) it وَتُخْفُونَ and you conceal كَثِيرًۭا ۖ much (of it) وَعُلِّمْتُم And you were taught مَّا what لَمْ not تَعْلَمُوٓا۟ knew أَنتُمْ you وَلَآ and not ءَابَآؤُكُمْ ۖ your forefathers قُلِ Say ٱللَّهُ ۖ Allah (revealed it) ثُمَّ Then ذَرْهُمْ leave them فِى in خَوْضِهِمْ their discourse يَلْعَبُونَ playing ٩١ (91)

And they did not appraise Allāh with true appraisal when they said, "Allāh did not reveal to a human being anything." Say, "Who revealed the Scripture that Moses brought as light and guidance to the people? You [Jews] make it into pages, disclosing [some of] it and concealing much. And you were taught that which you knew not - neither you nor your fathers." Say, "Allāh [revealed it]." Then leave them in their [empty] discourse, amusing themselves.

٦:٩٢

وَهَـٰذَا And this كِتَـٰبٌ (is) a Book أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ We have revealed it مُبَارَكٌۭ blessed مُّصَدِّقُ confirming ٱلَّذِى which بَيْنَ (came) before يَدَيْهِ its hands وَلِتُنذِرَ so that you may warn أُمَّ (the) mother ٱلْقُرَىٰ (of) the cities وَمَنْ and who حَوْلَهَا ۚ (are) around it وَٱلَّذِينَ And those who يُؤْمِنُونَ believe بِٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ in the Hereafter يُؤْمِنُونَ they believe بِهِۦ ۖ in it وَهُمْ and they عَلَىٰ over صَلَاتِهِمْ their prayers يُحَافِظُونَ (are) guarding ٩٢ (92)

And this is a Book which We have sent down, blessed and confirming what was before it, that you may warn the Mother of Cities [i.e., Makkah] and those around it. Those who believe in the Hereafter believe in it, and they are maintaining their prayers.

٦:٩٣

وَمَنْ And who أَظْلَمُ (is) more unjust مِمَّنِ than (one) who ٱفْتَرَىٰ invents عَلَى about ٱللَّهِ Allah كَذِبًا a lie أَوْ or قَالَ said أُوحِىَ It has been inspired إِلَىَّ to me وَلَمْ while not يُوحَ it was inspired إِلَيْهِ to him شَىْءٌۭ anything وَمَن and (one) who قَالَ said سَأُنزِلُ I will reveal مِثْلَ like مَآ what أَنزَلَ (has been) revealed ٱللَّهُ ۗ (by) Allah وَلَوْ And if تَرَىٰٓ you (could) see إِذِ when ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ the wrongdoers فِى (are) in غَمَرَٰتِ agonies ٱلْمَوْتِ (of) [the] death وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ while the Angels بَاسِطُوٓا۟ (are) stretching out أَيْدِيهِمْ their hands (saying) أَخْرِجُوٓا۟ Discharge أَنفُسَكُمُ ۖ your souls ٱلْيَوْمَ Today تُجْزَوْنَ you will be recompensed عَذَابَ (with) punishment ٱلْهُونِ humiliating بِمَا because كُنتُمْ you used to تَقُولُونَ say عَلَى against ٱللَّهِ Allah غَيْرَ other than ٱلْحَقِّ the truth وَكُنتُمْ and you were عَنْ towards ءَايَـٰتِهِۦ His Verses تَسْتَكْبِرُونَ being arrogant ٩٣ (93)

And who is more unjust than one who invents a lie about Allāh or says, "It has been inspired to me," while nothing has been inspired to him, and one who says, "I will reveal [something] like what Allāh revealed." And if you could but see when the wrongdoers are in the overwhelming pangs of death while the angels extend their hands, [saying], "Discharge your souls! Today you will be awarded the punishment of [extreme] humiliation for what you used to say against Allāh other than the truth and [that] you were, toward His verses, being arrogant."

٦:٩٤

وَلَقَدْ And certainly جِئْتُمُونَا you have come to Us فُرَٰدَىٰ alone كَمَا as خَلَقْنَـٰكُمْ We created you أَوَّلَ (the) first مَرَّةٍۢ time وَتَرَكْتُم and you have left مَّا whatever خَوَّلْنَـٰكُمْ We bestowed (on) you وَرَآءَ behind ظُهُورِكُمْ ۖ your backs وَمَا And not نَرَىٰ We see مَعَكُمْ with you شُفَعَآءَكُمُ your intercessors ٱلَّذِينَ those whom زَعَمْتُمْ you claimed أَنَّهُمْ that they (were) فِيكُمْ in your (matters) شُرَكَـٰٓؤُا۟ ۚ partners (with Allah) لَقَد Indeed تَّقَطَّعَ have been severed (bonds) بَيْنَكُمْ between you وَضَلَّ and is lost عَنكُم from you مَّا what كُنتُمْ you used to تَزْعُمُونَ claim ٩٤ (94)

[It will be said to them], "And you have certainly come to Us alone [i.e., individually] as We created you the first time, and you have left whatever We bestowed upon you behind you. And We do not see with you your 'intercessors' which you claimed that they were among you associates [of Allāh]. It has [all] been severed between you, and lost from you is what you used to claim."

٦:٩٥

۞ إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah فَالِقُ (is the) Cleaver ٱلْحَبِّ (of) the grain وَٱلنَّوَىٰ ۖ and the date-seed يُخْرِجُ He brings forth ٱلْحَىَّ the living مِنَ from ٱلْمَيِّتِ the dead وَمُخْرِجُ and brings forth ٱلْمَيِّتِ the dead مِنَ from ٱلْحَىِّ ۚ the living ذَٰلِكُمُ That ٱللَّهُ ۖ (is) Allah فَأَنَّىٰ so how تُؤْفَكُونَ are you deluded ٩٥ (95)

Indeed, Allāh is the cleaver of grain and date seeds. He brings the living out of the dead and brings the dead out of the living. That is Allāh; so how are you deluded?

٦:٩٦

فَالِقُ (He is the) Cleaver ٱلْإِصْبَاحِ (of) the daybreak وَجَعَلَ and He has made ٱلَّيْلَ the night سَكَنًۭا (for) rest وَٱلشَّمْسَ and the sun وَٱلْقَمَرَ and the moon حُسْبَانًۭا ۚ (for) reckoning ذَٰلِكَ That تَقْدِيرُ (is the) ordaining ٱلْعَزِيزِ (of) the All-Mighty ٱلْعَلِيمِ the All-Knowing ٩٦ (96)

[He is] the cleaver of daybreak and has made the night for rest and the sun and moon for calculation. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.

٦:٩٧

وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who جَعَلَ made لَكُمُ for you ٱلنُّجُومَ the stars لِتَهْتَدُوا۟ that you may guide yourselves بِهَا with them فِى in ظُلُمَـٰتِ the darkness[es] ٱلْبَرِّ (of) the land وَٱلْبَحْرِ ۗ and the sea قَدْ Certainly فَصَّلْنَا We have made clear ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Signs لِقَوْمٍۢ for a people يَعْلَمُونَ (who) know ٩٧ (97)

And it is He who placed for you the stars that you may be guided by them through the darknesses of the land and sea. We have detailed the signs for a people who know.

٦:٩٨

وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One Who أَنشَأَكُم (has) produced you مِّن from نَّفْسٍۢ a soul وَٰحِدَةٍۢ single فَمُسْتَقَرٌّۭ so (there is) a place of dwelling وَمُسْتَوْدَعٌۭ ۗ and a resting place قَدْ Certainly فَصَّلْنَا We have made clear ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Signs لِقَوْمٍۢ for a people يَفْقَهُونَ (who) understand ٩٨ (98)

And it is He who produced you from one soul and [gave you] a place of dwelling and of storage. We have detailed the signs for a people who understand.

٦:٩٩

وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One Who أَنزَلَ sends down مِنَ from ٱلسَّمَآءِ the sky مَآءًۭ water فَأَخْرَجْنَا then We bring forth بِهِۦ with it نَبَاتَ vegetation كُلِّ (of) every شَىْءٍۢ thing فَأَخْرَجْنَا Then We bring forth مِنْهُ from it خَضِرًۭا green plant نُّخْرِجُ We bring forth مِنْهُ from it حَبًّۭا grain مُّتَرَاكِبًۭا thick clustered وَمِنَ And from ٱلنَّخْلِ the date-palm مِن from طَلْعِهَا its spathe قِنْوَانٌۭ clusters of dates دَانِيَةٌۭ hanging low وَجَنَّـٰتٍۢ And gardens مِّنْ of أَعْنَابٍۢ grapes وَٱلزَّيْتُونَ and the olives وَٱلرُّمَّانَ and the pomegranates مُشْتَبِهًۭا resembling وَغَيْرَ and not مُتَشَـٰبِهٍ ۗ resembling ٱنظُرُوٓا۟ Look إِلَىٰ at ثَمَرِهِۦٓ its fruit إِذَآ when أَثْمَرَ it bears fruit وَيَنْعِهِۦٓ ۚ and its ripening إِنَّ Indeed فِى in ذَٰلِكُمْ that لَـَٔايَـٰتٍۢ (are) signs لِّقَوْمٍۢ for a people يُؤْمِنُونَ (who) believe ٩٩ (99)

And it is He who sends down rain from the sky, and We produce thereby the growth of all things. We produce from it greenery from which We produce grains arranged in layers. And from the palm trees - of its emerging fruit are clusters hanging low. And [We produce] gardens of grapevines and olives and pomegranates, similar yet varied. Look at [each of] its fruit when it yields and [at] its ripening. Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe.

٦:١٠٠

وَجَعَلُوا۟ And they make لِلَّهِ with Allah شُرَكَآءَ partners ٱلْجِنَّ jinn وَخَلَقَهُمْ ۖ though He has created them وَخَرَقُوا۟ and they falsely attribute لَهُۥ to Him بَنِينَ sons وَبَنَـٰتٍۭ and daughters بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍۢ ۚ knowledge سُبْحَـٰنَهُۥ Glorified is He وَتَعَـٰلَىٰ and Exalted عَمَّا above what يَصِفُونَ they attribute ١٠٠ (100)

But they have attributed to Allāh partners - the jinn, while He has created them - and have fabricated for Him sons and daughters without knowledge. Exalted is He and high above what they describe.

٦:١٠١

بَدِيعُ Originator ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ (of) the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ and the earth أَنَّىٰ How يَكُونُ can be لَهُۥ for Him وَلَدٌۭ a son وَلَمْ while not تَكُن (there) is لَّهُۥ for Him صَـٰحِبَةٌۭ ۖ a companion وَخَلَقَ and He created كُلَّ every شَىْءٍۢ ۖ thing وَهُوَ And He بِكُلِّ (is) of every شَىْءٍ thing عَلِيمٌۭ All-Knower ١٠١ (101)

[He is] Originator of the heavens and the earth. How could He have a son when He does not have a companion [i.e., wife] and He created all things? And He is, of all things, Knowing.

٦:١٠٢

ذَٰلِكُمُ That ٱللَّهُ (is) Allah رَبُّكُمْ ۖ your Lord لَآ (there is) no إِلَـٰهَ god إِلَّا except هُوَ ۖ Him خَـٰلِقُ (the) Creator كُلِّ (of) every شَىْءٍۢ thing فَٱعْبُدُوهُ ۚ so worship Him وَهُوَ And He عَلَىٰ (is) on كُلِّ every شَىْءٍۢ thing وَكِيلٌۭ a Guardian ١٠٢ (102)

That is Allāh, your Lord; there is no deity except Him, the Creator of all things, so worship Him. And He is Disposer of all things.

٦:١٠٣

لَّا Not (can) تُدْرِكُهُ grasp Him ٱلْأَبْصَـٰرُ the visions وَهُوَ but He يُدْرِكُ (can) grasp ٱلْأَبْصَـٰرَ ۖ (all) the vision وَهُوَ and He (is) ٱللَّطِيفُ the All-Subtle ٱلْخَبِيرُ the All-Aware ١٠٣ (103)

Vision perceives Him not, but He perceives [all] vision; and He is the Subtle, the Aware.

٦:١٠٤

قَدْ Verily جَآءَكُم has come to you بَصَآئِرُ enlightenment مِن from رَّبِّكُمْ ۖ your Lord فَمَنْ Then whoever أَبْصَرَ sees فَلِنَفْسِهِۦ ۖ then (it is) for his soul وَمَنْ and whoever عَمِىَ (is) blind فَعَلَيْهَا ۚ then (it is) against himself وَمَآ And not أَنَا۠ (am) I عَلَيْكُم over you بِحَفِيظٍۢ a guardian ١٠٤ (104)

There has come to you enlightenment from your Lord. So whoever will see does so for [the benefit of] his soul, and whoever is blind [does harm] against it. And [say], "I am not a guardian over you."1

٦:١٠٥

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus نُصَرِّفُ We explain ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Signs وَلِيَقُولُوا۟ that they (may) say دَرَسْتَ You have studied وَلِنُبَيِّنَهُۥ and that We (may) make it clear لِقَوْمٍۢ for a people يَعْلَمُونَ who know ١٠٥ (105)

And thus do We diversify the verses so they [i.e., the disbelievers] will say, "You have studied,"1 and so We may make it [i.e., the Qur’ān] clear for a people who know.

٦:١٠٦

ٱتَّبِعْ Follow مَآ what أُوحِىَ has been inspired إِلَيْكَ to you مِن from رَّبِّكَ ۖ your Lord لَآ (there is) no إِلَـٰهَ god إِلَّا except هُوَ ۖ Him وَأَعْرِضْ and turn away عَنِ from ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ the polytheists ١٠٦ (106)

Follow, [O Muḥammad], what has been revealed to you from your Lord - there is no deity except Him - and turn away from those who associate others with Allāh.

٦:١٠٧

وَلَوْ And if شَآءَ (had) willed ٱللَّهُ Allah مَآ not (they would have) أَشْرَكُوا۟ ۗ associated partners (with Him) وَمَا And not جَعَلْنَـٰكَ We have made you عَلَيْهِمْ over them حَفِيظًۭا ۖ a guardian وَمَآ and not أَنتَ you عَلَيْهِم (are) over them بِوَكِيلٍۢ a manager ١٠٧ (107)

But if Allāh had willed, they would not have associated. And We have not appointed you over them as a guardian, nor are you a manager over them.

٦:١٠٨

وَلَا And (do) not تَسُبُّوا۟ insult ٱلَّذِينَ those whom يَدْعُونَ they invoke مِن from دُونِ other than ٱللَّهِ Allah فَيَسُبُّوا۟ lest they insult ٱللَّهَ Allah عَدْوًۢا (in) enmity بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍۢ ۗ knowledge كَذَٰلِكَ Thus زَيَّنَّا We have made fair-seeming لِكُلِّ to every أُمَّةٍ community عَمَلَهُمْ their deed ثُمَّ Then إِلَىٰ to رَبِّهِم their Lord مَّرْجِعُهُمْ (is) their return فَيُنَبِّئُهُم then He will inform them بِمَا about what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَعْمَلُونَ do ١٠٨ (108)

And do not insult those they invoke other than Allāh, lest they insult Allāh in enmity without knowledge. Thus We have made pleasing to every community their deeds. Then to their Lord is their return, and He will inform them about what they used to do.

٦:١٠٩

وَأَقْسَمُوا۟ And they swear بِٱللَّهِ by Allah جَهْدَ strongest أَيْمَـٰنِهِمْ (of) their oaths لَئِن that if جَآءَتْهُمْ came to them ءَايَةٌۭ a sign لَّيُؤْمِنُنَّ they would surely believe بِهَا ۚ in it قُلْ Say إِنَّمَا Only ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتُ the signs عِندَ (are) with ٱللَّهِ ۖ Allah وَمَا And what يُشْعِرُكُمْ will make you perceive أَنَّهَآ that [it] إِذَا when جَآءَتْ it comes لَا not يُؤْمِنُونَ they will believe ١٠٩ (109)

And they swear by Allāh their strongest oaths that if a sign came to them, they would surely believe in it. Say, "The signs are only with [i.e., from] Allāh." And what will make you perceive that even if it [i.e., a sign] came, they would not believe.

٦:١١٠

وَنُقَلِّبُ And We will turn أَفْـِٔدَتَهُمْ their hearts وَأَبْصَـٰرَهُمْ and their sights كَمَا (just) as لَمْ not يُؤْمِنُوا۟ they believe بِهِۦٓ in it أَوَّلَ (the) first مَرَّةٍۢ time وَنَذَرُهُمْ And We will leave them فِى in طُغْيَـٰنِهِمْ their transgression يَعْمَهُونَ wandering blindly ١١٠ (110)

And We will turn away their hearts and their eyes just as they refused to believe in it [i.e., the revelation] the first time. And We will leave them in their transgression, wandering blindly.

٦:١١١

۞ وَلَوْ And (even) if أَنَّنَا [that] We (had) نَزَّلْنَآ [We] sent down إِلَيْهِمُ to them ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ the Angels وَكَلَّمَهُمُ and spoken to them ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ the dead وَحَشَرْنَا and We gathered عَلَيْهِمْ before them كُلَّ every شَىْءٍۢ thing قُبُلًۭا face to face مَّا not كَانُوا۟ they were لِيُؤْمِنُوٓا۟ to believe إِلَّآ unless أَن [that] يَشَآءَ wills ٱللَّهُ Allah وَلَـٰكِنَّ But أَكْثَرَهُمْ most of them يَجْهَلُونَ (are) ignorant ١١١ (111)

And even if We had sent down to them the angels [with the message] and the dead spoke to them [of it] and We gathered together every [created] thing in front of them, they would not believe unless Allāh should will. But most of them, [of that], are ignorant.

٦:١١٢

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus جَعَلْنَا We made لِكُلِّ for every نَبِىٍّ Prophet عَدُوًّۭا an enemy شَيَـٰطِينَ devils ٱلْإِنسِ (from) the mankind وَٱلْجِنِّ and the jinn يُوحِى inspiring بَعْضُهُمْ some of them إِلَىٰ to بَعْضٍۢ others زُخْرُفَ (with) decorative ٱلْقَوْلِ [the] speech غُرُورًۭا ۚ (in) deception وَلَوْ But if شَآءَ (had) willed رَبُّكَ your Lord مَا not فَعَلُوهُ ۖ they (would) have done it فَذَرْهُمْ so leave them وَمَا and what يَفْتَرُونَ they invent ١١٢ (112)

And thus We have made for every prophet an enemy - devils from mankind and jinn, inspiring to one another decorative speech in delusion. But if your Lord had willed, they would not have done it, so leave them and that which they invent.

٦:١١٣

وَلِتَصْغَىٰٓ And so that incline إِلَيْهِ to it أَفْـِٔدَةُ hearts ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe بِٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ in the Hereafter وَلِيَرْضَوْهُ and so that they may be pleased with it وَلِيَقْتَرِفُوا۟ and so that they may commit مَا what هُم they مُّقْتَرِفُونَ (are) committing ١١٣ (113)

And [it is] so the hearts of those who disbelieve in the Hereafter will incline toward it [i.e., deceptive speech] and that they will be satisfied with it and that they will commit that which they are committing.

٦:١١٤

أَفَغَيْرَ Then is (it) other than ٱللَّهِ Allah أَبْتَغِى I seek حَكَمًۭا (as) judge وَهُوَ while He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One Who أَنزَلَ has revealed إِلَيْكُمُ to you ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book مُفَصَّلًۭا ۚ explained in detail وَٱلَّذِينَ And those (to) whom ءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمُ We gave them ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book يَعْلَمُونَ they know أَنَّهُۥ that it مُنَزَّلٌۭ (is) sent down مِّن from رَّبِّكَ your Lord بِٱلْحَقِّ ۖ in truth فَلَا so (do) not تَكُونَنَّ be مِنَ among ٱلْمُمْتَرِينَ the ones who doubt ١١٤ (114)

[Say], "Then is it other than Allāh I should seek as judge while it is He who has revealed to you the Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] explained in detail?" And those to whom We [previously] gave the Scripture know that it is sent down from your Lord in truth, so never be among the doubters.

٦:١١٥

وَتَمَّتْ And (has been) fulfilled كَلِمَتُ (the) word رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord صِدْقًۭا (in) truth وَعَدْلًۭا ۚ and justice لَّا No مُبَدِّلَ one can change لِكَلِمَـٰتِهِۦ ۚ His words وَهُوَ and He ٱلسَّمِيعُ (is) the All-Hearer ٱلْعَلِيمُ the All-Knower ١١٥ (115)

And the word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can alter His words, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

٦:١١٦

وَإِن And if تُطِعْ you obey أَكْثَرَ most مَن of فِى (those) in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth يُضِلُّوكَ they will mislead you عَن from سَبِيلِ (the) way ٱللَّهِ ۚ (of) Allah إِن Not يَتَّبِعُونَ they follow إِلَّا except ٱلظَّنَّ [the] assumption وَإِنْ and not هُمْ they (do) إِلَّا except يَخْرُصُونَ guess ١١٦ (116)

And if you obey most of those upon the earth, they will mislead you from the way of Allāh. They follow not except assumption, and they are not but misjudging.

٦:١١٧

إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord هُوَ He أَعْلَمُ knows best مَن who يَضِلُّ strays عَن from سَبِيلِهِۦ ۖ His way وَهُوَ and He أَعْلَمُ (is) most knowing بِٱلْمُهْتَدِينَ of the guided-ones ١١٧ (117)

Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who strays from His way, and He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided.

٦:١١٨

فَكُلُوا۟ So eat مِمَّا of what ذُكِرَ (is) mentioned ٱسْمُ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهِ on it إِن if كُنتُم you are بِـَٔايَـٰتِهِۦ in His Verses مُؤْمِنِينَ believers ١١٨ (118)

So eat of that [meat] upon which the name of Allāh has been mentioned, if you are believers in His verses [i.e., revealed law].

٦:١١٩

وَمَا And what لَكُمْ for you أَلَّا that not تَأْكُلُوا۟ you eat مِمَّا of what ذُكِرَ has been mentioned ٱسْمُ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهِ on it وَقَدْ when indeed فَصَّلَ He (has) explained in detail لَكُم to you مَّا what حَرَّمَ He (has) forbidden عَلَيْكُمْ to you إِلَّا except مَا what ٱضْطُرِرْتُمْ you are compelled إِلَيْهِ ۗ to it وَإِنَّ And indeed كَثِيرًۭا many لَّيُضِلُّونَ surely lead astray بِأَهْوَآئِهِم by their (vain) desires بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍ ۗ knowledge إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord هُوَ He أَعْلَمُ (is) most knowing بِٱلْمُعْتَدِينَ of the transgressors ١١٩ (119)

And why should you not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has been mentioned while He has explained in detail to you what He has forbidden you, excepting that to which you are compelled. And indeed do many lead [others] astray through their [own] inclinations without knowledge. Indeed, your Lord - He is most knowing of the transgressors.

٦:١٢٠

وَذَرُوا۟ Forsake ظَـٰهِرَ open ٱلْإِثْمِ [the] sins وَبَاطِنَهُۥٓ ۚ and the secret إِنَّ Indeed ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَكْسِبُونَ earn ٱلْإِثْمَ [the] sin سَيُجْزَوْنَ they will be recompensed بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَقْتَرِفُونَ commit ١٢٠ (120)

And leave [i.e., desist from] what is apparent of sin and what is concealed thereof. Indeed, those who earn [blame for] sin will be recompensed for that which they used to commit.

٦:١٢١

وَلَا And (do) not تَأْكُلُوا۟ eat مِمَّا of that لَمْ not يُذْكَرِ has been mentioned ٱسْمُ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهِ on it وَإِنَّهُۥ and indeed, it (is) لَفِسْقٌۭ ۗ grave disobedience وَإِنَّ And indeed ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينَ the devils لَيُوحُونَ inspire إِلَىٰٓ to أَوْلِيَآئِهِمْ their friends لِيُجَـٰدِلُوكُمْ ۖ so that they dispute with you وَإِنْ and if أَطَعْتُمُوهُمْ you obey them إِنَّكُمْ indeed, you لَمُشْرِكُونَ (would) be the polytheists ١٢١ (121)

And do not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has not been mentioned, for indeed, it is grave disobedience. And indeed do the devils inspire their allies [among men] to dispute with you. And if you were to obey them, indeed, you would be associators [of others with Him].

٦:١٢٢

أَوَمَن Is (one) who كَانَ was مَيْتًۭا dead فَأَحْيَيْنَـٰهُ and We gave him life وَجَعَلْنَا and We made لَهُۥ for him نُورًۭا light يَمْشِى he walks بِهِۦ whereby فِى among ٱلنَّاسِ the people كَمَن like (one) who مَّثَلُهُۥ [similar to him] فِى (is) in ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ the darknesses لَيْسَ not بِخَارِجٍۢ he comes out مِّنْهَا ۚ of it كَذَٰلِكَ Thus زُيِّنَ is made fair-seeming لِلْكَـٰفِرِينَ to the disbelievers مَا what كَانُوا۟ they were يَعْمَلُونَ doing ١٢٢ (122)

And is one who was dead and We gave him life and made for him light by which to walk among the people like one who is in darkness, never to emerge therefrom? Thus it has been made pleasing to the disbelievers that which they were doing.

٦:١٢٣

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus جَعَلْنَا We placed فِى in كُلِّ every قَرْيَةٍ city أَكَـٰبِرَ greatest مُجْرِمِيهَا (of) its criminals لِيَمْكُرُوا۟ so that they plot فِيهَا ۖ therein وَمَا And not يَمْكُرُونَ they plot إِلَّا except بِأَنفُسِهِمْ against themselves وَمَا and not يَشْعُرُونَ they perceive ١٢٣ (123)

And thus We have placed within every city the greatest of its criminals to conspire therein. But they conspire not except against themselves, and they perceive [it] not.

٦:١٢٤

وَإِذَا And when جَآءَتْهُمْ comes to them ءَايَةٌۭ a Sign قَالُوا۟ they say لَن Never نُّؤْمِنَ we will believe حَتَّىٰ until نُؤْتَىٰ we are given مِثْلَ like مَآ what أُوتِىَ was given رُسُلُ (to the) Messengers ٱللَّهِ ۘ (of) Allah ٱللَّهُ Allah أَعْلَمُ knows best حَيْثُ where يَجْعَلُ He places رِسَالَتَهُۥ ۗ His Message سَيُصِيبُ Will afflict ٱلَّذِينَ those who أَجْرَمُوا۟ committed crimes صَغَارٌ a humiliation عِندَ from ٱللَّهِ Allah وَعَذَابٌۭ and a punishment شَدِيدٌۢ severe بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَمْكُرُونَ plot ١٢٤ (124)

And when a sign comes to them, they say, "Never will we believe until we are given like that which was given to the messengers of Allāh." Allāh is most knowing of where [i.e., with whom] He places His message. There will afflict those who committed crimes debasement before Allāh and severe punishment for what they used to conspire.

٦:١٢٥

فَمَن So whoever يُرِدِ wants ٱللَّهُ Allah أَن that يَهْدِيَهُۥ He guides him يَشْرَحْ He expands صَدْرَهُۥ his breast لِلْإِسْلَـٰمِ ۖ to Islam وَمَن and whoever يُرِدْ He wants أَن that يُضِلَّهُۥ He lets him go astray يَجْعَلْ He makes صَدْرَهُۥ his breast ضَيِّقًا tight حَرَجًۭا and constricted كَأَنَّمَا as though يَصَّعَّدُ he (were) climbing فِى into ٱلسَّمَآءِ ۚ the sky كَذَٰلِكَ Thus يَجْعَلُ places ٱللَّهُ Allah ٱلرِّجْسَ the filth عَلَى on ٱلَّذِينَ those who لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe ١٢٥ (125)

So whoever Allāh wants to guide - He expands his breast to [contain] Islām; and whoever He wants to send astray - He makes his breast tight and constricted as though he were climbing into the sky. Thus does Allāh place defilement upon those who do not believe.

٦:١٢٦

وَهَـٰذَا And this صِرَٰطُ (is the) way رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord مُسْتَقِيمًۭا ۗ straight قَدْ Certainly فَصَّلْنَا We have detailed ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ the Verses لِقَوْمٍۢ for a people يَذَّكَّرُونَ who take heed ١٢٦ (126)

And this is the path of your Lord, [leading] straight. We have detailed the verses for a people who remember.

٦:١٢٧

۞ لَهُمْ For them دَارُ (will be) home ٱلسَّلَـٰمِ (of) [the] peace عِندَ with رَبِّهِمْ ۖ their Lord وَهُوَ And He وَلِيُّهُم (will be) their protecting friend بِمَا because كَانُوا۟ (of what) they used to يَعْمَلُونَ do ١٢٧ (127)

For them will be the Home of Peace [i.e., Paradise] with their Lord. And He will be their protecting friend because of what they used to do.

٦:١٢٨

وَيَوْمَ And (the) Day يَحْشُرُهُمْ He will gather them جَمِيعًۭا all يَـٰمَعْشَرَ (and will say), "O assembly ٱلْجِنِّ (of) [the] jinn قَدِ Certainly ٱسْتَكْثَرْتُم you have (misled) many مِّنَ of ٱلْإِنسِ ۖ the mankind وَقَالَ And will say أَوْلِيَآؤُهُم their friends مِّنَ among ٱلْإِنسِ the men رَبَّنَا Our Lord ٱسْتَمْتَعَ profited بَعْضُنَا some of us بِبَعْضٍۢ by others وَبَلَغْنَآ and we have reached أَجَلَنَا our term ٱلَّذِىٓ which أَجَّلْتَ You appointed لَنَا ۚ for us قَالَ He will say ٱلنَّارُ The Fire مَثْوَىٰكُمْ (is) your abode خَـٰلِدِينَ will abide forever فِيهَآ in it إِلَّا except مَا (for) what شَآءَ wills ٱللَّهُ ۗ Allah إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord حَكِيمٌ (is) All-Wise عَلِيمٌۭ All-Knowing ١٢٨ (128)

And [mention, O Muḥammad], the Day when He will gather them together [and say], "O company of jinn, you have [misled] many of mankind." And their allies among mankind will say, "Our Lord, some of us made use of others, and we have [now] reached our term which You appointed for us." He will say, "The Fire is your residence, wherein you will abide eternally, except for what Allāh wills. Indeed, your Lord is Wise and Knowing."

٦:١٢٩

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus نُوَلِّى We make friends بَعْضَ some (of) ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoers بَعْضًۢا (to) others بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَكْسِبُونَ earn ١٢٩ (129)

And thus will We make some of the wrongdoers allies of others for what they used to earn.

٦:١٣٠

يَـٰمَعْشَرَ O assembly ٱلْجِنِّ (of) [the] jinn وَٱلْإِنسِ and [the] men أَلَمْ Did (there) not يَأْتِكُمْ come to you رُسُلٌۭ Messengers مِّنكُمْ from (among) you يَقُصُّونَ relating عَلَيْكُمْ to you ءَايَـٰتِى My Verses وَيُنذِرُونَكُمْ and warning you لِقَآءَ (of the) meeting يَوْمِكُمْ (of) your day هَـٰذَا ۚ this قَالُوا۟ They will say شَهِدْنَا We bear witness عَلَىٰٓ against أَنفُسِنَا ۖ ourselves وَغَرَّتْهُمُ And deluded them ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ the life ٱلدُّنْيَا (of) the world وَشَهِدُوا۟ and they will bear witness عَلَىٰٓ against أَنفُسِهِمْ themselves أَنَّهُمْ that they كَانُوا۟ were كَـٰفِرِينَ disbelievers ١٣٠ (130)

"O company of jinn and mankind, did there not come to you messengers from among you, relating to you My verses and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours?" They will say, "We bear witness against ourselves"; and the worldly life had deluded them, and they will bear witness against themselves that they were disbelievers.

٦:١٣١

ذَٰلِكَ That (is because) أَن [that] لَّمْ not يَكُن is رَّبُّكَ your Lord مُهْلِكَ one who destroys ٱلْقُرَىٰ the cities بِظُلْمٍۢ for (their) wrongdoing وَأَهْلُهَا while their people غَـٰفِلُونَ (are) unaware ١٣١ (131)

That is because your Lord would not destroy the cities for wrongdoing while their people were unaware.

٦:١٣٢

وَلِكُلٍّۢ And for all دَرَجَـٰتٌۭ (will be) degrees مِّمَّا for what عَمِلُوا۟ ۚ they did وَمَا And not رَبُّكَ (is) your Lord بِغَـٰفِلٍ unaware عَمَّا about what يَعْمَلُونَ they do ١٣٢ (132)

And for all are degrees [i.e., positions resulting] from what they have done. And your Lord is not unaware of what they do.

٦:١٣٣

وَرَبُّكَ And your Lord ٱلْغَنِىُّ (is) the Self-Sufficient ذُو (the) Possessor ٱلرَّحْمَةِ ۚ (of) mercy إِن If يَشَأْ He wills يُذْهِبْكُمْ He can take you away وَيَسْتَخْلِفْ and grant succession مِنۢ from بَعْدِكُم after you مَّا (to) whom يَشَآءُ He wills كَمَآ as أَنشَأَكُم He raised you مِّن from ذُرِّيَّةِ the descendants قَوْمٍ (of) people ءَاخَرِينَ other ١٣٣ (133)

And your Lord is the Free of need, the possessor of mercy. If He wills, He can do away with you and give succession after you to whomever He wills, just as He produced you from the descendants of another people.

٦:١٣٤

إِنَّ Indeed مَا what تُوعَدُونَ you are promised لَـَٔاتٍۢ ۖ (is) sure to come وَمَآ And not أَنتُم (can) you بِمُعْجِزِينَ escape (it) ١٣٤ (134)

Indeed, what you are promised is coming, and you will not cause failure [to Allāh].

٦:١٣٥

قُلْ Say يَـٰقَوْمِ O my people ٱعْمَلُوا۟ Work عَلَىٰ on مَكَانَتِكُمْ your position إِنِّى Indeed, I am عَامِلٌۭ ۖ a worker فَسَوْفَ And soon تَعْلَمُونَ you will know مَن who تَكُونُ will have لَهُۥ for himself عَـٰقِبَةُ (in) the end ٱلدَّارِ ۗ (a good) home إِنَّهُۥ Indeed [he] لَا (will) not يُفْلِحُ succeed ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ the wrongdoers ١٣٥ (135)

Say, "O my people, work according to your position; [for] indeed, I am working. And you are going to know who will have succession in the home. Indeed, the wrongdoers will not succeed."

٦:١٣٦

وَجَعَلُوا۟ And they assign لِلَّهِ to Allah مِمَّا out of what ذَرَأَ He produced مِنَ of ٱلْحَرْثِ the crops وَٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ and the cattle نَصِيبًۭا a share فَقَالُوا۟ and they say هَـٰذَا This لِلَّهِ (is) for Allah بِزَعْمِهِمْ by their claim وَهَـٰذَا And this لِشُرَكَآئِنَا ۖ (is) for our partners فَمَا But what كَانَ is لِشُرَكَآئِهِمْ for their partners فَلَا (does) not يَصِلُ reach إِلَى [to] ٱللَّهِ ۖ Allah وَمَا while what كَانَ is لِلَّهِ for Allah فَهُوَ then it يَصِلُ reaches إِلَىٰ [to] شُرَكَآئِهِمْ ۗ their partners سَآءَ Evil مَا (is) what يَحْكُمُونَ they judge ١٣٦ (136)

And they [i.e., the polytheists] assign to Allāh from that which He created of crops and livestock a share and say, "This is for Allāh," by their claim, "and this is for our 'partners' [associated with Him]." But what is for their "partners" does not reach Allāh, while what is for Allāh - this reaches their "partners." Evil is that which they rule.

٦:١٣٧

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And likewise زَيَّنَ made pleasing لِكَثِيرٍۢ to many مِّنَ of ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ the polytheists قَتْلَ (the) killing أَوْلَـٰدِهِمْ (of) their children شُرَكَآؤُهُمْ their partners لِيُرْدُوهُمْ so that they may ruin them وَلِيَلْبِسُوا۟ and that they make confusing عَلَيْهِمْ to them دِينَهُمْ ۖ their religion وَلَوْ And if شَآءَ (had) willed ٱللَّهُ Allah مَا not فَعَلُوهُ ۖ (would) they have done so فَذَرْهُمْ So leave them وَمَا and what يَفْتَرُونَ they invent ١٣٧ (137)

And likewise, to many of the polytheists their partners have made [to seem] pleasing the killing of their children in order to bring about their destruction and to cover them with confusion in their religion. And if Allāh had willed, they would not have done so. So leave them and that which they invent.

٦:١٣٨

وَقَالُوا۟ And they say هَـٰذِهِۦٓ These أَنْعَـٰمٌۭ (are) cattle وَحَرْثٌ and crops حِجْرٌۭ forbidden لَّا no (one) يَطْعَمُهَآ can eat them إِلَّا except مَن whom نَّشَآءُ we will بِزَعْمِهِمْ by their claim وَأَنْعَـٰمٌ And cattle حُرِّمَتْ forbidden ظُهُورُهَا (are) their backs وَأَنْعَـٰمٌۭ and cattle لَّا not يَذْكُرُونَ they mention ٱسْمَ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهَا on it ٱفْتِرَآءً (as) an invention عَلَيْهِ ۚ against Him سَيَجْزِيهِم He will recompense them بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَفْتَرُونَ invent ١٣٨ (138)

And they say, "These animals and crops are forbidden; no one may eat from them except whom we will," by their claim. And there are those [camels] whose backs are forbidden [by them]2 and those upon which the name of Allāh is not mentioned - [all of this] an invention of untruth about Him. He will punish them for what they were inventing.

٦:١٣٩

وَقَالُوا۟ And they say مَا What فِى (is) in بُطُونِ (the) wombs هَـٰذِهِ (of) these ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ cattle خَالِصَةٌۭ (is) exclusively لِّذُكُورِنَا for our males وَمُحَرَّمٌ and forbidden عَلَىٰٓ on أَزْوَٰجِنَا ۖ our spouses وَإِن But if يَكُن is مَّيْتَةًۭ (born) dead فَهُمْ then they (all) فِيهِ in it شُرَكَآءُ ۚ (are) partners سَيَجْزِيهِمْ He will recompense them وَصْفَهُمْ ۚ (for) their attribution إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, He حَكِيمٌ (is) All-Wise عَلِيمٌۭ All-Knowing ١٣٩ (139)

And they say, "What is in the bellies of these animals is exclusively for our males and forbidden to our females. But if it is [born] dead, then all of them have shares therein." He will punish them for their description. Indeed, He is Wise and Knowing.

٦:١٤٠

قَدْ Certainly خَسِرَ (are) lost ٱلَّذِينَ those who قَتَلُوٓا۟ killed أَوْلَـٰدَهُمْ their children سَفَهًۢا (in) foolishness بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍۢ knowledge وَحَرَّمُوا۟ and forbid مَا what رَزَقَهُمُ (bas been) provided (to) them ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah ٱفْتِرَآءً inventing (lies) عَلَى against ٱللَّهِ ۚ Allah قَدْ Certainly ضَلُّوا۟ they have gone astray وَمَا and not كَانُوا۟ they are مُهْتَدِينَ guided-ones ١٤٠ (140)

They will have lost who killed their children in foolishness without knowledge and prohibited what Allāh had provided for them, inventing untruth about Allāh. They have gone astray and were not [rightly] guided.

٦:١٤١

۞ وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One Who أَنشَأَ produced جَنَّـٰتٍۢ gardens مَّعْرُوشَـٰتٍۢ trellised وَغَيْرَ and other than مَعْرُوشَـٰتٍۢ trellised وَٱلنَّخْلَ and the date-palm وَٱلزَّرْعَ and the crops مُخْتَلِفًا diverse أُكُلُهُۥ (are) its taste وَٱلزَّيْتُونَ and the olives وَٱلرُّمَّانَ and the pomegranates مُتَشَـٰبِهًۭا similar وَغَيْرَ and other than مُتَشَـٰبِهٍۢ ۚ similar كُلُوا۟ Eat مِن of ثَمَرِهِۦٓ its fruit إِذَآ when أَثْمَرَ it bears fruit وَءَاتُوا۟ and give حَقَّهُۥ its due يَوْمَ (on the) day حَصَادِهِۦ ۖ (of) its harvest وَلَا And (do) not تُسْرِفُوٓا۟ ۚ (be) extravagant إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, He لَا (does) not يُحِبُّ love ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ the ones who are extravagant ١٤١ (141)

And He it is who causes gardens to grow, [both] trellised and untrellised, and palm trees and crops of different [kinds of] food and olives and pomegranates, similar and dissimilar. Eat of [each of] its fruit when it yields and give its due [zakāh] on the day of its harvest. And be not excessive. Indeed, He does not like those who commit excess.

٦:١٤٢

وَمِنَ And of ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ the cattle حَمُولَةًۭ (are some for) burden وَفَرْشًۭا ۚ and (some for) meat كُلُوا۟ Eat مِمَّا of what رَزَقَكُمُ (has been) provided (to) you ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah وَلَا and (do) not تَتَّبِعُوا۟ follow خُطُوَٰتِ (the) footsteps ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنِ ۚ (of) Shaitaan إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, he لَكُمْ (is) to you عَدُوٌّۭ an enemy مُّبِينٌۭ open ١٤٢ (142)

And of the grazing livestock are carriers [of burdens] and those [too] small. Eat of what Allāh has provided for you and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.

٦:١٤٣

ثَمَـٰنِيَةَ Eight أَزْوَٰجٍۢ ۖ pairs مِّنَ of ٱلضَّأْنِ the sheep ٱثْنَيْنِ two وَمِنَ and of ٱلْمَعْزِ the goats ٱثْنَيْنِ ۗ two قُلْ Say ءَآلذَّكَرَيْنِ (Are) the two males حَرَّمَ He has forbidden أَمِ or ٱلْأُنثَيَيْنِ the two females أَمَّا or what ٱشْتَمَلَتْ contains عَلَيْهِ [in it] أَرْحَامُ (the) wombs ٱلْأُنثَيَيْنِ ۖ (of) the two females نَبِّـُٔونِى Inform me بِعِلْمٍ with knowledge إِن if كُنتُمْ you are صَـٰدِقِينَ truthful ١٤٣ (143)

[They are] eight mates - of the sheep, two and of the goats, two. Say, "Is it the two males He has forbidden or the two females or that which the wombs of the two females contain? Inform me with knowledge, if you should be truthful."

٦:١٤٤

وَمِنَ And of ٱلْإِبِلِ the camels ٱثْنَيْنِ two وَمِنَ and of ٱلْبَقَرِ the cows ٱثْنَيْنِ ۗ two قُلْ Say ءَآلذَّكَرَيْنِ (Is it) the two males حَرَّمَ He (has) forbidden أَمِ or ٱلْأُنثَيَيْنِ the two females أَمَّا or what ٱشْتَمَلَتْ contains عَلَيْهِ [in it] أَرْحَامُ (the) wombs ٱلْأُنثَيَيْنِ ۖ (of) the two females أَمْ Or كُنتُمْ were you شُهَدَآءَ witnesses إِذْ when وَصَّىٰكُمُ enjoined you ٱللَّهُ Allah بِهَـٰذَا ۚ with this فَمَنْ Then who أَظْلَمُ (is) more unjust مِمَّنِ than (one) who ٱفْتَرَىٰ invents عَلَى against ٱللَّهِ Allah كَذِبًۭا a lie لِّيُضِلَّ to mislead ٱلنَّاسَ the people بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍ ۗ knowledge إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah لَا (does) not يَهْدِى guide ٱلْقَوْمَ the people ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ the wrongdoing ١٤٤ (144)

And of the camels, two and of the cattle, two. Say, "Is it the two males He has forbidden or the two females or that which the wombs of the two females contain? Or were you witnesses when Allāh charged you with this? Then who is more unjust than one who invents a lie about Allāh to mislead the people by [something] other than knowledge? Indeed, Allāh does not guide the wrongdoing people."

٦:١٤٥

قُل Say لَّآ Not أَجِدُ (do) I find فِى in مَآ what أُوحِىَ has been revealed إِلَىَّ to me مُحَرَّمًا (anything) forbidden عَلَىٰ to طَاعِمٍۢ an eater يَطْعَمُهُۥٓ who eats it إِلَّآ except أَن that يَكُونَ it be مَيْتَةً dead أَوْ or دَمًۭا blood مَّسْفُوحًا poured forth أَوْ or لَحْمَ (the) flesh خِنزِيرٍۢ (of) swine فَإِنَّهُۥ for indeed, it رِجْسٌ (is) filth أَوْ or فِسْقًا (it be) disobedience أُهِلَّ [is] dedicated لِغَيْرِ to other than ٱللَّهِ Allah بِهِۦ ۚ [on it] فَمَنِ But whoever ٱضْطُرَّ (is) compelled غَيْرَ not بَاغٍۢ desiring وَلَا and not عَادٍۢ transgressing فَإِنَّ then indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord غَفُورٌۭ (is) Oft-Forgiving رَّحِيمٌۭ Most Merciful ١٤٥ (145)

Say, "I do not find within that which was revealed to me [anything] forbidden to one who would eat it unless it be a dead animal or blood spilled out or the flesh of swine - for indeed, it is impure - or it be [that slaughtered in] disobedience, dedicated to other than Allāh. But whoever is forced [by necessity], neither desiring [it] nor transgressing [its limit], then indeed, your Lord is Forgiving and Merciful."

٦:١٤٦

وَعَلَى And to ٱلَّذِينَ those who هَادُوا۟ are Jews حَرَّمْنَا We forbade كُلَّ every ذِى (animal) with ظُفُرٍۢ ۖ claws وَمِنَ and of ٱلْبَقَرِ the cows وَٱلْغَنَمِ and the sheep حَرَّمْنَا We forbade عَلَيْهِمْ to them شُحُومَهُمَآ their fat إِلَّا except مَا what حَمَلَتْ carried ظُهُورُهُمَآ their backs أَوِ or ٱلْحَوَايَآ the entrails أَوْ or مَا what ٱخْتَلَطَ (is) joined بِعَظْمٍۢ ۚ with the bone ذَٰلِكَ That جَزَيْنَـٰهُم (is) their recompense بِبَغْيِهِمْ ۖ for their rebellion وَإِنَّا And indeed, We لَصَـٰدِقُونَ [surely] are truthful ١٤٦ (146)

And to those who are Jews We prohibited every animal of uncloven hoof; and of the cattle and the sheep We prohibited to them their fat, except what adheres to their backs or the entrails or what is joined with bone. [By] that We repaid them for their transgression. And indeed, We are truthful.

٦:١٤٧

فَإِن But if كَذَّبُوكَ they deny you فَقُل then say رَّبُّكُمْ Your Lord ذُو (is the) Possessor رَحْمَةٍۢ (of) Mercy وَٰسِعَةٍۢ Vast وَلَا but not يُرَدُّ will be turned back بَأْسُهُۥ His wrath عَنِ from ٱلْقَوْمِ the people ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ (who are) criminals ١٤٧ (147)

So if they deny you, [O Muḥammad], say, "Your Lord is the possessor of vast mercy; but His punishment cannot be repelled from the people who are criminals."

٦:١٤٨

سَيَقُولُ Will say ٱلَّذِينَ those who أَشْرَكُوا۟ associate partners (with Allah) لَوْ If شَآءَ Had willed ٱللَّهُ Allah مَآ not أَشْرَكْنَا we (would) have associated partners (with Allah) وَلَآ and not ءَابَآؤُنَا our forefathers وَلَا and not حَرَّمْنَا we (would) have forbidden مِن [of] شَىْءٍۢ ۚ anything كَذَٰلِكَ Likewise كَذَّبَ denied ٱلَّذِينَ those who مِن (were from) قَبْلِهِمْ before them حَتَّىٰ until ذَاقُوا۟ they tasted بَأْسَنَا ۗ Our wrath قُلْ Say هَلْ Is عِندَكُم with you مِّنْ [of] عِلْمٍۢ any knowledge فَتُخْرِجُوهُ then produce it لَنَآ ۖ for us إِن Not تَتَّبِعُونَ you follow إِلَّا except ٱلظَّنَّ the assumption وَإِنْ and not أَنتُمْ you (do) إِلَّا but تَخْرُصُونَ guess ١٤٨ (148)

Those who associated [others] with Allāh will say, "If Allāh had willed, we would not have associated [anything] and neither would our fathers, nor would we have prohibited anything." Likewise did those before deny until they tasted Our punishment. Say, "Do you have any knowledge that you can produce for us? You follow not except assumption, and you are not but misjudging."

٦:١٤٩

قُلْ Say فَلِلَّهِ With Allah ٱلْحُجَّةُ (is) the argument ٱلْبَـٰلِغَةُ ۖ the conclusive فَلَوْ And if شَآءَ He (had) willed لَهَدَىٰكُمْ surely He (would) have guided you أَجْمَعِينَ all ١٤٩ (149)

Say, "With Allāh is the far-reaching [i.e., conclusive] argument. If He had willed, He would have guided you all."

٦:١٥٠

قُلْ Say هَلُمَّ Bring forward شُهَدَآءَكُمُ your witnesses ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَشْهَدُونَ testify أَنَّ that ٱللَّهَ Allah حَرَّمَ prohibited هَـٰذَا ۖ this فَإِن Then if شَهِدُوا۟ they testify فَلَا then (do) not تَشْهَدْ testify مَعَهُمْ ۚ with them وَلَا And (do) not تَتَّبِعْ follow أَهْوَآءَ (the) desires ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who كَذَّبُوا۟ denied بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا Our Signs وَٱلَّذِينَ and those who لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe بِٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ in the Hereafter وَهُم while they بِرَبِّهِمْ with their Lord يَعْدِلُونَ set up equals ١٥٠ (150)

Say, [O Muḥammad], "Bring forward your witnesses who will testify that Allāh has prohibited this." And if they testify, do not testify with them. And do not follow the desires of those who deny Our verses and those who do not believe in the Hereafter, while they equate [others] with their Lord.

٦:١٥١

۞ قُلْ Say تَعَالَوْا۟ Come أَتْلُ I will recite مَا what حَرَّمَ has prohibited رَبُّكُمْ your Lord عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ to you أَلَّا That (do) not تُشْرِكُوا۟ associate بِهِۦ with Him شَيْـًۭٔا ۖ anything وَبِٱلْوَٰلِدَيْنِ and with the parents إِحْسَـٰنًۭا ۖ (be) good وَلَا and (do) not تَقْتُلُوٓا۟ kill أَوْلَـٰدَكُم your children مِّنْ (out) of إِمْلَـٰقٍۢ ۖ poverty نَّحْنُ We نَرْزُقُكُمْ provide for you وَإِيَّاهُمْ ۖ and for them وَلَا And (do) not تَقْرَبُوا۟ go near ٱلْفَوَٰحِشَ [the] immoralities مَا what ظَهَرَ (is) apparent مِنْهَا of them وَمَا and what بَطَنَ ۖ (is) concealed وَلَا And (do) not تَقْتُلُوا۟ kill ٱلنَّفْسَ the soul ٱلَّتِى which حَرَّمَ has (been) forbidden ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah إِلَّا except بِٱلْحَقِّ ۚ by (legal) right ذَٰلِكُمْ That وَصَّىٰكُم (He) has enjoined on you بِهِۦ with it لَعَلَّكُمْ so that you may تَعْقِلُونَ use reason ١٥١ (151)

Say, "Come, I will recite what your Lord has prohibited to you. [He commands] that you not associate anything with Him, and to parents, good treatment, and do not kill your children out of poverty; We will provide for you and them. And do not approach immoralities - what is apparent of them and what is concealed. And do not kill the soul which Allāh has forbidden [to be killed] except by [legal] right. This has He instructed you that you may use reason."

٦:١٥٢

وَلَا And (do) not تَقْرَبُوا۟ go near مَالَ wealth ٱلْيَتِيمِ (of) the orphans إِلَّا except بِٱلَّتِى with that هِىَ which أَحْسَنُ (is) best حَتَّىٰ until يَبْلُغَ he reaches أَشُدَّهُۥ ۖ his maturity وَأَوْفُوا۟ And give full ٱلْكَيْلَ [the] measure وَٱلْمِيزَانَ and the weight بِٱلْقِسْطِ ۖ with justice لَا Not نُكَلِّفُ We burden نَفْسًا any soul إِلَّا except وُسْعَهَا ۖ (to) its capacity وَإِذَا And when قُلْتُمْ you speak فَٱعْدِلُوا۟ then be just وَلَوْ even if كَانَ he is ذَا (one of) قُرْبَىٰ ۖ a near relative وَبِعَهْدِ And (the) Covenant ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah أَوْفُوا۟ ۚ fulfil ذَٰلِكُمْ That وَصَّىٰكُم (He) has enjoined on you بِهِۦ with it لَعَلَّكُمْ so that you may تَذَكَّرُونَ remember ١٥٢ (152)

And do not approach the orphan's property except in a way that is best [i.e., intending improvement] until he reaches maturity. And give full measure and weight in justice. We do not charge any soul except [with that within] its capacity. And when you speak [i.e., testify], be just, even if [it concerns] a near relative. And the covenant of Allāh fulfill. This has He instructed you that you may remember.

٦:١٥٣

وَأَنَّ And that هَـٰذَا this صِرَٰطِى (is) My path مُسْتَقِيمًۭا straight فَٱتَّبِعُوهُ ۖ so follow it وَلَا And (do) not تَتَّبِعُوا۟ follow ٱلسُّبُلَ the (other) paths فَتَفَرَّقَ then they will separate بِكُمْ you عَن from سَبِيلِهِۦ ۚ His path ذَٰلِكُمْ That وَصَّىٰكُم (He) has enjoined on you بِهِۦ [with it] لَعَلَّكُمْ so that you may تَتَّقُونَ become righteous ١٥٣ (153)

And, [moreover], this is My path, which is straight, so follow it; and do not follow [other] ways, for you will be separated from His way. This has He instructed you that you may become righteous.

٦:١٥٤

ثُمَّ Moreover ءَاتَيْنَا We gave مُوسَى Musa ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book تَمَامًا completing (Our Favor) عَلَى on ٱلَّذِىٓ the one who أَحْسَنَ did good وَتَفْصِيلًۭا and an explanation لِّكُلِّ of every شَىْءٍۢ thing وَهُدًۭى and a guidance وَرَحْمَةًۭ and mercy لَّعَلَّهُم so that they may بِلِقَآءِ in (the) meeting رَبِّهِمْ (with) their Lord يُؤْمِنُونَ believe ١٥٤ (154)

Then We gave Moses the Scripture, making complete [Our favor] upon the one who did good [i.e., Moses] and as a detailed explanation of all things and as guidance and mercy that perhaps in the meeting with their Lord they would believe.

٦:١٥٥

وَهَـٰذَا And this كِتَـٰبٌ (is) a Book أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ We have revealed it مُبَارَكٌۭ blessed فَٱتَّبِعُوهُ so follow it وَٱتَّقُوا۟ and fear (Allah) لَعَلَّكُمْ so that you may تُرْحَمُونَ receive mercy ١٥٥ (155)

And this [Qur’ān] is a Book We have revealed [which is] blessed, so follow it and fear Allāh that you may receive mercy.

٦:١٥٦

أَن Lest تَقُولُوٓا۟ you say إِنَّمَآ Only أُنزِلَ was revealed ٱلْكِتَـٰبُ the Book عَلَىٰ on طَآئِفَتَيْنِ the two groups مِن from قَبْلِنَا before us وَإِن and indeed كُنَّا we were عَن about دِرَاسَتِهِمْ their study لَغَـٰفِلِينَ certainly unaware ١٥٦ (156)

[We revealed it] lest you say, "The Scripture was only sent down to two groups before us, but we were of their study unaware,"

٦:١٥٧

أَوْ Or تَقُولُوا۟ you say لَوْ If أَنَّآ [that] أُنزِلَ was revealed عَلَيْنَا to us ٱلْكِتَـٰبُ the Book لَكُنَّآ surely we (would) have been أَهْدَىٰ better guided مِنْهُمْ ۚ than them فَقَدْ So verily جَآءَكُم has come to you بَيِّنَةٌۭ clear proofs مِّن from رَّبِّكُمْ your Lord وَهُدًۭى and a Guidance وَرَحْمَةٌۭ ۚ and a Mercy فَمَنْ Then who أَظْلَمُ (is) more unjust مِمَّن than (he) who كَذَّبَ denies بِـَٔايَـٰتِ [with] (the) Verses ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَصَدَفَ and turns away عَنْهَا ۗ from them سَنَجْزِى We will recompense ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَصْدِفُونَ turn away عَنْ from ءَايَـٰتِنَا Our Signs سُوٓءَ (with) an evil ٱلْعَذَابِ punishment بِمَا because كَانُوا۟ they used to يَصْدِفُونَ turn away ١٥٧ (157)

Or lest you say, "If only the Scripture had been revealed to us, we would have been better guided than they." So there has [now] come to you a clear evidence from your Lord and a guidance and mercy. Then who is more unjust than one who denies the verses of Allāh and turns away from them? We will recompense those who turn away from Our verses with the worst of punishment for their having turned away.

٦:١٥٨

هَلْ Are يَنظُرُونَ they waiting إِلَّآ except أَن that تَأْتِيَهُمُ comes to them ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ the Angels أَوْ or يَأْتِىَ comes رَبُّكَ your Lord أَوْ or يَأْتِىَ comes بَعْضُ some (of) ءَايَـٰتِ (the) Signs رَبِّكَ ۗ (of) your Lord يَوْمَ (The) Day يَأْتِى (when) comes بَعْضُ some (of) ءَايَـٰتِ (the) Signs رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord لَا not يَنفَعُ will benefit نَفْسًا a soul إِيمَـٰنُهَا its faith لَمْ not تَكُنْ (if) it had ءَامَنَتْ believed مِن from قَبْلُ before أَوْ or كَسَبَتْ earned فِىٓ through إِيمَـٰنِهَا its faith خَيْرًۭا ۗ any good قُلِ Say ٱنتَظِرُوٓا۟ Wait إِنَّا Indeed, we مُنتَظِرُونَ (are) those who wait ١٥٨ (158)

Do they [then] wait for anything except that the angels should come to them or your Lord should come or that there come some of the signs of your Lord? The Day that some of the signs of your Lord will come no soul will benefit from its faith as long as it had not believed before or had earned through its faith some good. Say, "Wait. Indeed, we [also] are waiting."

٦:١٥٩

إِنَّ Indeed ٱلَّذِينَ those who فَرَّقُوا۟ divide دِينَهُمْ their religion وَكَانُوا۟ and become شِيَعًۭا sects لَّسْتَ you are not مِنْهُمْ with them فِى in شَىْءٍ ۚ anything إِنَّمَآ Only أَمْرُهُمْ their affair إِلَى (is) with ٱللَّهِ Allah ثُمَّ then يُنَبِّئُهُم He will inform them بِمَا of what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَفْعَلُونَ do ١٥٩ (159)

Indeed, those who have divided their religion and become sects - you, [O Muḥammad], are not [associated] with them in anything. Their affair is only [left] to Allāh; then He will inform them about what they used to do.

٦:١٦٠

مَن Whoever جَآءَ came بِٱلْحَسَنَةِ with a good deed فَلَهُۥ then for him عَشْرُ (is) ten (times) أَمْثَالِهَا ۖ the like of it وَمَن And whoever جَآءَ came بِٱلسَّيِّئَةِ with an evil deed فَلَا then not يُجْزَىٰٓ he will be recompensed إِلَّا except مِثْلَهَا the like of it وَهُمْ and they لَا will not يُظْلَمُونَ (be) wronged ١٦٠ (160)

Whoever comes [on the Day of Judgement] with a good deed will have ten times the like thereof [to his credit], and whoever comes with an evil deed will not be recompensed except the like thereof; and they will not be wronged.

٦:١٦١

قُلْ Say إِنَّنِى Indeed (as for) me هَدَىٰنِى has guided me رَبِّىٓ my Lord إِلَىٰ to صِرَٰطٍۢ a path مُّسْتَقِيمٍۢ straight دِينًۭا a religion قِيَمًۭا right مِّلَّةَ religion إِبْرَٰهِيمَ (of) Ibrahim حَنِيفًۭا ۚ a true monotheist وَمَا And not كَانَ he was مِنَ from ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ the polytheists ١٦١ (161)

Say, "Indeed, my Lord has guided me to a straight path - a correct religion - the way of Abraham, inclining toward truth. And he was not among those who associated others with Allāh."

٦:١٦٢

قُلْ Say إِنَّ Indeed صَلَاتِى my prayer وَنُسُكِى and my rites of sacrifice وَمَحْيَاىَ and my living وَمَمَاتِى and my dying لِلَّهِ (are) for Allah رَبِّ Lord ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ (of) the worlds ١٦٢ (162)

Say, "Indeed, my prayer, my rites of sacrifice, my living and my dying are for Allāh, Lord of the worlds.

٦:١٦٣

لَا No شَرِيكَ partners لَهُۥ ۖ for Him وَبِذَٰلِكَ and with that أُمِرْتُ I have been commanded وَأَنَا۠ And I am أَوَّلُ (the) first ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ (of) the ones who surrender (to Him) ١٦٣ (163)

No partner has He. And this I have been commanded, and I am the first [among you] of the Muslims."1

٦:١٦٤

قُلْ Say أَغَيْرَ Is (it) other than ٱللَّهِ Allah أَبْغِى I (should) seek رَبًّۭا (as) a Lord وَهُوَ while He رَبُّ (is) the Lord كُلِّ (of) every شَىْءٍۢ ۚ thing وَلَا And not تَكْسِبُ earns كُلُّ every نَفْسٍ soul إِلَّا except عَلَيْهَا ۚ against itself وَلَا and not تَزِرُ bears وَازِرَةٌۭ any bearer of burden وِزْرَ burden أُخْرَىٰ ۚ (of) another ثُمَّ Then إِلَىٰ to رَبِّكُم your Lord مَّرْجِعُكُمْ (is) your return فَيُنَبِّئُكُم then He will inform you بِمَا about what كُنتُمْ you were فِيهِ concerning it تَخْتَلِفُونَ differing ١٦٤ (164)

Say, "Is it other than Allāh I should desire as a lord while He is the Lord of all things? And every soul earns not [blame] except against itself, and no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you concerning that over which you used to differ."

٦:١٦٥

وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who جَعَلَكُمْ (has) made you خَلَـٰٓئِفَ successors ٱلْأَرْضِ (of) the earth وَرَفَعَ and raised بَعْضَكُمْ some of you فَوْقَ above بَعْضٍۢ others دَرَجَـٰتٍۢ (in) ranks لِّيَبْلُوَكُمْ so that He may test you فِى in مَآ what ءَاتَىٰكُمْ ۗ He has given you إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord سَرِيعُ (is) swift ٱلْعِقَابِ (in) the punishment وَإِنَّهُۥ and indeed, He (is) لَغَفُورٌۭ [certainly], Oft-Forgiving رَّحِيمٌۢ Most Merciful ١٦٥ (165)

And it is He who has made you successors upon the earth and has raised some of you above others in degrees [of rank] that He may try you through what He has given you. Indeed, your Lord is swift in penalty; but indeed, He is Forgiving and Merciful.
