تِلْكَ اٰیٰتُ الْكِتٰبِ الْمُبِیْنِ ۟

Tilka Aayaatul Kitaabil Mubeen

These are verses of the Book that makes (things) clear.

لَعَلَّكَ بَاخِعٌ نَّفْسَكَ اَلَّا یَكُوْنُوْا مُؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟

La'allaka baakhi'un nafsaka allaa yakoonoo mu'mineen

It may be thou frettest thy soul with grief, that they do not become Believers.

اِنْ نَّشَاْ نُنَزِّلْ عَلَیْهِمْ مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ اٰیَةً فَظَلَّتْ اَعْنَاقُهُمْ لَهَا خٰضِعِیْنَ ۟

In nashaa nunazzil 'alaihim minas samaaa'i Aayatan fazallat a'naaquhum lahaa khaadi'een

If (such) were Our Will, We could send down to them from the sky a Sign, to which they would bend their necks in humility.

وَمَا یَاْتِیْهِمْ مِّنْ ذِكْرٍ مِّنَ الرَّحْمٰنِ مُحْدَثٍ اِلَّا كَانُوْا عَنْهُ مُعْرِضِیْنَ ۟

Wa maa yaateehim min zikrim minar Rahmaani muhdasin illaa kaanoo 'anhu mu'rideen

But there comes not to them a newly-revealed Message from (Allah) Most Gracious, but they turn away therefrom.

فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوْا فَسَیَاْتِیْهِمْ اَنْۢبٰٓؤُا مَا كَانُوْا بِهٖ یَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ ۟

Faqad kazzaboo fasa yaateehim ambaaa'u maa kaanoo bihee yastahzi'oon

They have indeed rejected (the Message): so they will know soon (enough) the truth of what they mocked at!

اَوَلَمْ یَرَوْا اِلَی الْاَرْضِ كَمْ اَنْۢبَتْنَا فِیْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ زَوْجٍ كَرِیْمٍ ۟

Awa lam yaraw ilal ardi kam ambatnaa feehaa min kulli zawjin kareem

Do they not look at the earth,- how many noble things of all kinds We have produced therein?

اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیَةً وَمَا كَانَ اَكْثَرُهُمْ مُّؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟

Inna fee zaalika la Aayah; wa maa kaana aksaruhum mu'mineen

Verily, in this is a Sign: but most of them do not believe.

وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الرَّحِیْمُ 

Wa inna Rabbaka la Huwal 'Azeezur Raheem

And verily, thy Lord is He, the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

وَاِذْ نَادٰی رَبُّكَ مُوْسٰۤی اَنِ ائْتِ الْقَوْمَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ ۟

Wa iz naadaa Rabbuka Moosaaa ani'-til qawmaz zaalimeen

Behold, thy Lord called Moses: "Go to the people of iniquity,-

قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ اَلَا یَتَّقُوْنَ ۟

Qawma Fir'awn; alaa yattaqoon

"The people of the Pharaoh: will they not fear Allah?"

قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّیْۤ اَخَافُ اَنْ یُّكَذِّبُوْنِ ۟

Qaala Rabbi inneee akhaafu ai yukazziboon

He said: "O my Lord! I do fear that they will charge me with falsehood:

وَیَضِیْقُ صَدْرِیْ وَلَا یَنْطَلِقُ لِسَانِیْ فَاَرْسِلْ اِلٰی هٰرُوْنَ ۟

Wa yadeequ sadree wa laa yantaliqu lisaanee fa arsil ilaa Haaroon

"My breast will be straitened. And my speech may not go (smoothly): so send unto Aaron.

وَلَهُمْ عَلَیَّ ذَنْۢبٌ فَاَخَافُ اَنْ یَّقْتُلُوْنِ ۟

Wa lahum 'alaiya zambun fa akhaafu ai yaqtuloon

"And (further), they have a charge of crime against me; and I fear they may slay me."

قَالَ كَلَّا فَاذْهَبَا بِاٰیٰتِنَاۤ اِنَّا مَعَكُمْ مُّسْتَمِعُوْنَ ۟

Qaala kallaa fazhabaa bi Aayaatinaaa innaa ma'akum mustami'oon

Allah said: "By no means! proceed then, both of you, with Our Signs; We are with you, and will listen (to your call).

فَاْتِیَا فِرْعَوْنَ فَقُوْلَاۤ اِنَّا رَسُوْلُ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟

Faatiyaa Fir'awna faqoolaaa innaa Rasoolu Rabbil 'aalameen

"So go forth, both of you, to Pharaoh, and say: 'We have been sent by the Lord and Cherisher of the worlds;

اَنْ اَرْسِلْ مَعَنَا بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ ۟

An arsil ma'anaa Baneee Israaa'eel

"'Send thou with us the Children of Israel.'"

قَالَ اَلَمْ نُرَبِّكَ فِیْنَا وَلِیْدًا وَّلَبِثْتَ فِیْنَا مِنْ عُمُرِكَ سِنِیْنَ ۟

Qaala alam nurabbika feenaa waleedanw wa labista feenaa min 'umurika sineen

(Pharaoh) said: "Did we not cherish thee as a child among us, and didst thou not stay in our midst many years of thy life?

وَفَعَلْتَ فَعْلَتَكَ الَّتِیْ فَعَلْتَ وَاَنْتَ مِنَ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ ۟

Wa fa'alta fa'latakal latee fa'alta wa anta minal kaafireen

"And thou didst a deed of thine which (thou knowest) thou didst, and thou art an ungrateful (wretch)!"

قَالَ فَعَلْتُهَاۤ اِذًا وَّاَنَا مِنَ الضَّآلِّیْنَ ۟

Qaala fa'altuhaaa izanw wa ana minad daaaleen

Moses said: "I did it then, when I was in error.

فَفَرَرْتُ مِنْكُمْ لَمَّا خِفْتُكُمْ فَوَهَبَ لِیْ رَبِّیْ حُكْمًا وَّجَعَلَنِیْ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِیْنَ ۟

Fafarartu minkum lam maa khiftukum fawahaba lee Rabbee hukmanw wa ja'alanee minal mursaleen

"So I fled from you (all) when I feared you; but my Lord has (since) invested me with judgment (and wisdom) and appointed me as one of the messengers.

وَتِلْكَ نِعْمَةٌ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَیَّ اَنْ عَبَّدْتَّ بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ ۟

Wa tilka ni'matun tamun nuhaa 'alaiya an 'abbatta Baneee Israaa'eel

"And this is the favour with which thou dost reproach me,- that thou hast enslaved the Children of Israel!"

قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَا رَبُّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟

Qaala Fir'awnu wa maa Rabbul 'aalameen

Pharaoh said: "And what is the 'Lord and Cherisher of the worlds'?"

قَالَ رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَمَا بَیْنَهُمَا اِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُّوْقِنِیْنَ ۟

Qaala Rabbus samaawaati wal ardi wa maa bainahumaa in kuntum mooqineen

(Moses) said: "The Lord and Cherisher of the heavens and the earth, and all between,- if ye want to be quite sure."

قَالَ لِمَنْ حَوْلَهٗۤ اَلَا تَسْتَمِعُوْنَ ۟

Qaala liman hawlahooo alaa tastami'oon

(Pharaoh) said to those around: "Did ye not listen (to what he says)?"

قَالَ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ اٰبَآىِٕكُمُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ ۟

Qaala Rabbukum wa Rabbu aabaaa'ikumul awwaleen

(Moses) said: "Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers from the beginning!"

قَالَ اِنَّ رَسُوْلَكُمُ الَّذِیْۤ اُرْسِلَ اِلَیْكُمْ لَمَجْنُوْنٌ ۟

Qaala inna Rasoolakumul lazee ursila ilaikum lamajnoon

(Pharaoh) said: "Truly your messenger who has been sent to you is a veritable madman!"

قَالَ رَبُّ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَمَا بَیْنَهُمَا اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْقِلُوْنَ ۟

Qaala Rabbul mashriqi wal maghribi wa maa baina humaa in kuntum ta'qiloon

(Moses) said: "Lord of the East and the West, and all between! if ye only had sense!"

قَالَ لَىِٕنِ اتَّخَذْتَ اِلٰهًا غَیْرِیْ لَاَجْعَلَنَّكَ مِنَ الْمَسْجُوْنِیْنَ ۟

Qaala la'init takhazta ilaahan ghairee la aj'alannaka minal masjooneen

(Pharaoh) said: "If thou dost put forward any god other than me, I will certainly put thee in prison!"

قَالَ اَوَلَوْ جِئْتُكَ بِشَیْءٍ مُّبِیْنٍ ۟

(Moses) said: "Even if I showed you something clear (and) convincing?"

قَالَ فَاْتِ بِهٖۤ اِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقِیْنَ ۟

Qaala faati biheee in kunta minas saadiqeen

(Pharaoh) said: "Show it then, if thou tellest the truth!"

فَاَلْقٰی عَصَاهُ فَاِذَا هِیَ ثُعْبَانٌ مُّبِیْنٌ ۟

Fa alqaa 'asaahu fa izaaa hiya su'baanum mubeen

So (Moses) threw his rod, and behold, it was a serpent, plain (for all to see)!

وَّنَزَعَ یَدَهٗ فَاِذَا هِیَ بَیْضَآءُ لِلنّٰظِرِیْنَ 

Wa naza'a yadahoo faizaa hiya baidaaa'u linnaa zireen

And he drew out his hand, and behold, it was white to all beholders!

قَالَ لِلْمَلَاِ حَوْلَهٗۤ اِنَّ هٰذَا لَسٰحِرٌ عَلِیْمٌ ۟

Qaala lilmala-i hawlahooo inna haazaa lasaahirun 'aleem

(Pharaoh) said to the Chiefs around him: "This is indeed a sorcerer well-versed:

یُّرِیْدُ اَنْ یُّخْرِجَكُمْ مِّنْ اَرْضِكُمْ بِسِحْرِهٖ فَمَاذَا تَاْمُرُوْنَ ۟

"His plan is to get you out of your land by his sorcery; then what is it ye counsel?"

They said: "Keep him and his brother in suspense (for a while), and dispatch to the Cities heralds to collect-

یَاْتُوْكَ بِكُلِّ سَحَّارٍ عَلِیْمٍ ۟

Yaatooka bikulli sah haarin 'aleem

"And bring up to thee all (our) sorcerers well-versed."

فَجُمِعَ السَّحَرَةُ لِمِیْقَاتِ یَوْمٍ مَّعْلُوْمٍ ۟

Fa jumi'as saharatu limeeqaati Yawmim ma'loom

So the sorcerers were got together for the appointment of a day well-known,

وَّقِیْلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلْ اَنْتُمْ مُّجْتَمِعُوْنَ ۟

Wa qeela linnaasi hal antum mujtami'oon

And the people were told: "Are ye (now) assembled?-

La'allanaa nattabi'us saharata in kaanoo humul ghaalibeen

"That we may follow the sorcerers (in religion) if they win?"

فَلَمَّا جَآءَ السَّحَرَةُ قَالُوْا لِفِرْعَوْنَ اَىِٕنَّ لَنَا لَاَجْرًا اِنْ كُنَّا نَحْنُ الْغٰلِبِیْنَ ۟

Falammaa jaaa'as saharatu qaaloo li Fir'awna a'inna lanaa la ajjran in kunnaa nahnul ghaalibeen

So when the sorcerers arrived, they said to Pharaoh: "Of course - shall we have a (suitable) reward if we win?

قَالَ نَعَمْ وَاِنَّكُمْ اِذًا لَّمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِیْنَ ۟

Qaala na'am wa innakum izal laminal muqarrabeen

He said: "Yea, (and more),- for ye shall in that case be (raised to posts) nearest (to my person)."

قَالَ لَهُمْ مُّوْسٰۤی اَلْقُوْا مَاۤ اَنْتُمْ مُّلْقُوْنَ ۟

Moses said to them: "Throw ye - that which ye are about to throw!"

فَاَلْقَوْا حِبَالَهُمْ وَعِصِیَّهُمْ وَقَالُوْا بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ اِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْغٰلِبُوْنَ ۟

Fa alqaw hibaalahum wa 'isiyyahum wa qaaloo bi'izzati Fir'awna innaa lanahnul ghaaliboon

So they threw their ropes and their rods, and said: "By the might of Pharaoh, it is we who will certainly win!"

فَاَلْقٰی مُوْسٰی عَصَاهُ فَاِذَا هِیَ تَلْقَفُ مَا یَاْفِكُوْنَ ۟

Fa alqaa Moosaa 'asaahu fa izaa hiya talqafu maa yaafikoon

Then Moses threw his rod, when, behold, it straightway swallows up all the falsehoods which they fake!

فَاُلْقِیَ السَّحَرَةُ سٰجِدِیْنَ ۟

Fa ulqiyas saharatu saajideen

Then did the sorcerers fall down, prostrate in adoration,

قَالُوْۤا اٰمَنَّا بِرَبِّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟

Saying: "We believe in the Lord of the Worlds,

"The Lord of Moses and Aaron."

Said (Pharaoh): "Believe ye in Him before I give you permission? surely he is your leader, who has taught you sorcery! but soon shall ye know! Be sure I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will cause you all to die on the cross!"

قَالُوْا لَا ضَیْرَ اِنَّاۤ اِلٰی رَبِّنَا مُنْقَلِبُوْنَ ۟

They said: "No matter! for us, we shall but return to our Lord!

اِنَّا نَطْمَعُ اَنْ یَّغْفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطٰیٰنَاۤ اَنْ كُنَّاۤ اَوَّلَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟

"Only, our desire is that our Lord will forgive us our faults, that we may become foremost among the believers!"

Wa awhainaaa ilaa Moosaaa an asri bi'ibaadeee innakum muttaba'oon

By inspiration we told Moses: "Travel by night with my servants; for surely ye shall be pursued."

فَاَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ فِی الْمَدَآىِٕنِ حٰشِرِیْنَ ۟

Then Pharaoh sent heralds to (all) the Cities,

Thus it was, but We made the Children of Israel inheritors of such things.

So they pursued them at sunrise.

فَلَمَّا تَرَآءَ الْجَمْعٰنِ قَالَ اَصْحٰبُ مُوْسٰۤی اِنَّا لَمُدْرَكُوْنَ ۟

Falammaa taraaa'al jam'aani qaala as haabu Moosaaa innaa lamudrakoon

And when the two bodies saw each other, the people of Moses said: "We are sure to be overtaken."

قَالَ كَلَّا اِنَّ مَعِیَ رَبِّیْ سَیَهْدِیْنِ ۟

Then We told Moses by inspiration: "Strike the sea with thy rod." So it divided, and each separate part became like the huge, firm mass of a mountain.

وَاَزْلَفْنَا ثَمَّ الْاٰخَرِیْنَ ۟

And We made the other party approach thither.

وَاَنْجَیْنَا مُوْسٰی وَمَنْ مَّعَهٗۤ اَجْمَعِیْنَ ۟

We delivered Moses and all who were with him;

ثُمَّ اَغْرَقْنَا الْاٰخَرِیْنَ ۟

Summa aghraqnal aakhareen

But We drowned the others.

اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیَةً وَمَا كَانَ اَكْثَرُهُمْ مُّؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟

Verily in this is a Sign: but most of them do not believe.

Inna fee zaalika la Aayah; wa maa kaana aksaruhum mu'mineen

Verily in that is a Sign: but most of them do not believe.

وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الرَّحِیْمُ 

Wa inna Rabbaka la huwal 'Azeezur Raheem

And verily thy Lord is He, the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

وَاِنَّهٗ لَتَنْزِیْلُ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ ۟

Wa innahoo latanzeelu Rabbil 'aalameen

Verily this is a Revelation from the Lord of the Worlds:

نَزَلَ بِهِ الرُّوْحُ الْاَمِیْنُ ۟

Nazala bihir Roohul Ameen

With it came down the spirit of Faith and Truth-

عَلٰی قَلْبِكَ لِتَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُنْذِرِیْنَ ۟

Alaa qalbika litakoona minal munzireen

To thy heart and mind, that thou mayest admonish.

بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِیٍّ مُّبِیْنٍ ۟

Bilisaanin 'Arabiyyim mubeen

In the perspicuous Arabic tongue.

وَاِنَّهٗ لَفِیْ زُبُرِ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ ۟

Wa innahoo lafee Zuburil awwaleen

Without doubt it is (announced) in the mystic Books of former peoples.

اَوَلَمْ یَكُنْ لَّهُمْ اٰیَةً اَنْ یَّعْلَمَهٗ عُلَمٰٓؤُا بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ ۟

Awalam yakul lahum Aayatan ai ya'lamahoo 'ulamaaa'u Baneee Israaa'eel

Is it not a Sign to them that the Learned of the Children of Israel knew it (as true)?

وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنٰهُ عَلٰی بَعْضِ الْاَعْجَمِیْنَ ۟

Wa law nazzalnaahu 'alaa ba'dil a'jameen

Had We revealed it to any of the non-Arabs,

فَقَرَاَهٗ عَلَیْهِمْ مَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ مُؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟

Faqara ahoo 'alaihim maa kaanoo bihee mu'mineen

And had he recited it to them, they would not have believed in it.

كَذٰلِكَ سَلَكْنٰهُ فِیْ قُلُوْبِ الْمُجْرِمِیْنَ ۟

Kazaalika salaknaahu fee quloobil mujrimeen

Thus have We caused it to enter the hearts of the sinners.

لَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِهٖ حَتّٰی یَرَوُا الْعَذَابَ الْاَلِیْمَ ۟

Laa yu'minoona bihee hattaa yarawul 'azaabal aleem

They will not believe in it until they see the grievous Penalty;

فَیَاْتِیَهُمْ بَغْتَةً وَّهُمْ لَا یَشْعُرُوْنَ ۟

Fayaatiyahum baghtatanw wa hum laa yash'uroon

But the (Penalty) will come to them of a sudden, while they perceive it not;

فَیَقُوْلُوْا هَلْ نَحْنُ مُنْظَرُوْنَ ۟

Fa yaqooloo hal nahnu munzaroon

Then they will say: "Shall we be respited?"

اَفَبِعَذَابِنَا یَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَ ۟

Afabi 'azaabinaa yasta'jiloon

Do they then ask for Our Penalty to be hastened on?

اَفَرَءَیْتَ اِنْ مَّتَّعْنٰهُمْ سِنِیْنَ ۟

Afara'aita im matta'naahum sineen

Seest thou? If We do let them enjoy (this life) for a few years,

ثُمَّ جَآءَهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا یُوْعَدُوْنَ ۟

Summa jaaa'ahum maa kaanoo yoo'adoon

Yet there comes to them at length the (Punishment) which they were promised!

مَاۤ اَغْنٰی عَنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُوْا یُمَتَّعُوْنَ ۟

Maaa aghnaaa 'anhum maa kaanoo yumatta'oon

It will profit them not that they enjoyed (this life)!

وَمَاۤ اَهْلَكْنَا مِنْ قَرْیَةٍ اِلَّا لَهَا مُنْذِرُوْنَ ۟

Wa maaa ahlaknaa min qaryatin illaa lahaa munziroon

Never did We destroy a population, but had its warners -

ذِكْرٰی وَمَا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِیْنَ ۟

Zikraa wa maa kunnaa zaalimeen

By way of reminder; and We never are unjust.

وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتْ بِهِ الشَّیٰطِیْنُ ۟

Wa maa tanazzalat bihish Shayaateen

No evil ones have brought down this (Revelation):

وَمَا یَنْۢبَغِیْ لَهُمْ وَمَا یَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ ۟

Wa maa yambaghee lahum wa maa yastatee'oon

It would neither suit them nor would they be able (to produce it).

اِنَّهُمْ عَنِ السَّمْعِ لَمَعْزُوْلُوْنَ ۟

Innahum 'anis sam'i lama'zooloon

Indeed they have been removed far from even (a chance of) hearing it.

فَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهًا اٰخَرَ فَتَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُعَذَّبِیْنَ ۟

Falaa tad'u ma'al laahi ilaahan aakhara fatakoona minal mu'azzabeen

So call not on any other god with Allah, or thou wilt be among those under the Penalty.

وَاَنْذِرْ عَشِیْرَتَكَ الْاَقْرَبِیْنَ ۟

Wa anzir 'asheeratakal aqrabeen

And admonish thy nearest kinsmen,

وَاخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ ۟

Wakhfid janaahaka limanit taba 'aka minal mu'mineen

And lower thy wing to the Believers who follow thee.

فَاِنْ عَصَوْكَ فَقُلْ اِنِّیْ بَرِیْٓءٌ مِّمَّا تَعْمَلُوْنَ ۟

Fa in asawka faqul innee bareee'um mimmmaa ta'maloon

Then if they disobey thee, say: "I am free (of responsibility) for what ye do!"

وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَی الْعَزِیْزِ الرَّحِیْمِ ۟

Wa tawakkal alal 'Azeezir Raheem

And put thy trust on the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,-

الَّذِیْ یَرٰىكَ حِیْنَ تَقُوْمُ ۟

Allazee yaraaka heena taqoom

Who seeth thee standing forth (in prayer),

وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِی السّٰجِدِیْنَ ۟

Wa taqallubaka fis saajideen

And thy movements among those who prostrate themselves,

اِنَّهٗ هُوَ السَّمِیْعُ الْعَلِیْمُ ۟

Innahoo Huwas Samee'ul 'Aleem

For it is He Who heareth and knoweth all things.

هَلْ اُنَبِّئُكُمْ عَلٰی مَنْ تَنَزَّلُ الشَّیٰطِیْنُ ۟

Hal unabbi'ukum 'alaa man tanazzalush Shayaateen

Shall I inform you, (O people!), on whom it is that the evil ones descend?

تَنَزَّلُ عَلٰی كُلِّ اَفَّاكٍ اَثِیْمٍ ۟

Tanazzalu 'alaa kulli affaakin aseem

They descend on every lying, wicked person,

یُّلْقُوْنَ السَّمْعَ وَاَكْثَرُهُمْ كٰذِبُوْنَ ۟

Yulqoonas sam'a wa aksaruhum kaaziboon

(Into whose ears) they pour hearsay vanities, and most of them are liars.

وَالشُّعَرَآءُ یَتَّبِعُهُمُ الْغَاوٗنَ ۟

Washshu 'araaa'u yattabi 'uhumul ghaawoon

And the Poets,- It is those straying in Evil, who follow them:

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّهُمْ فِیْ كُلِّ وَادٍ یَّهِیْمُوْنَ ۟

Alam tara annahum fee kulli waadiny yaheemoon

Seest thou not that they wander distracted in every valley?-

وَاَنَّهُمْ یَقُوْلُوْنَ مَا لَا یَفْعَلُوْنَ ۟

Wa annahum yaqooloona ma laa yaf'aloon

And that they say what they practise not?-

اِلَّا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَذَكَرُوا اللّٰهَ كَثِیْرًا وَّانْتَصَرُوْا مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا ظُلِمُوْا وَسَیَعْلَمُ الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْۤا اَیَّ مُنْقَلَبٍ یَّنْقَلِبُوْنَ 

Illal lazeena aamanoo wa 'amilus saalihaati wa zakarul laaha kaseeranw wantasaroo min ba'di maa zulimoo; wa saya'lamul lazeena zalamooo aiya munqalabiny yanqaliboon

Except those who believe, work righteousness, engage much in the remembrance of Allah, and defend themselves only after they are unjustly attacked. And soon will the unjust assailants know what vicissitudes their affairs will take!
