Surah At-Tahrim: Arabic, Transliteration & Translation

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

1. 66:1

   يٰٓاَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ لِمَ تُحَرِّمُ مَآ اَحَلَّ اللّٰهُ لَكَۚ تَبْتَغِيْ مَرْضَاتَ اَزْوَاجِكَۗ وَاللّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ

   Yaa ai-yuhaannabii-yu lima tuharrimu maa ahallallahu laka tabtaghii mardhaata azwaajika wallahu ghafuurun rahiimun

   O Prophet, why do you forbid what Allah has made lawful for you? Is it to please your wives? Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Compassionate.

2. 66:2

   قَدْ فَرَضَ اللّٰهُ لَكُمْ تَحِلَّةَ اَيْمَانِكُمْۚ وَاللّٰهُ مَوْلٰىكُمْۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيْمُ الْحَكِيْمُ

   Qad faradhallahu lakum tahillata aimaanikum wallahu maulaakum wahuwal 'aliimul hakiim(u)

   Allah has prescribed for you a way for the absolution of your oaths. Allah is your Guardian. He is All-Knowing, Most Wise.

3. 66:3

   وَاِذْ اَسَرَّ النَّبِيُّ اِلٰى بَعْضِ اَزْوَاجِهٖ حَدِيْثًاۚ فَلَمَّا نَبَّاَتْ بِهٖ وَاَظْهَرَهُ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ عَرَّفَ بَعْضَهٗ وَاَعْرَضَ عَنْۢ بَعْضٍۚ فَلَمَّا نَبَّاَهَا بِهٖ قَالَتْ مَنْ اَنْۢبَاَكَ هٰذَاۗ قَالَ نَبَّاَنِيَ الْعَلِيْمُ الْخَبِيْرُ

   Wa-idz asarrannabii-yu ila ba'dhi azwaajihi hadiitsan falammaa nabbaat bihi wa-azhharahullahu 'alaihi 'arrafa ba'dhahu wa-a'radha 'an ba'dhin falammaa nabbaahaa bihi qaalat man anbaaka hadzaa qaala nabbaaniyal 'aliimul khabiir(u)

   The Prophet confided something to one of his wives and then she disclosed it (to another); so after Allah revealed to the Prophet (that she had disclosed that secret), he made a part of it known to her and passed over a part of it. And when he told her about this (i.e., that she had disclosed the secret entrusted to her), she asked: “Who informed you of this?” He said: “I was told of it by He Who is All-Knowing, All-Aware.”

4. 66:4

   اِنْ تَتُوْبَآ اِلَى اللّٰهِ فَقَدْ صَغَتْ قُلُوْبُكُمَاۚ وَاِنْ تَظٰهَرَا عَلَيْهِ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ مَوْلٰىهُ وَجِبْرِيْلُ وَصَالِحُ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَۚ وَالْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ ظَهِيْرٌ

   In tatuubaa ilallahi faqad shaghat quluubukumaa wa-in tazhaaharaa 'alaihi fa-innallaha huwa maulaahu wajibriilu washaalihul mu'miniina wal malaa-ikatu ba'da dzalika zhahiirun

   If the two of you turn in repentance to Allah (that is better for you), for the hearts of both of you have swerved from the Straight Path. But if you support one another against the Prophet, then surely Allah is his Protector; and after that Gabriel and all righteous believers and the angels are all his supporters.

5. 66:5

   عَسٰى رَبُّهٗٓ اِنْ طَلَّقَكُنَّ اَنْ يُّبْدِلَهٗٓ اَزْوَاجًا خَيْرًا مِّنْكُنَّ مُسْلِمٰتٍ مُّؤْمِنٰتٍ قٰنِتٰتٍ تٰۤىِٕبٰتٍ عٰبِدٰتٍ سٰۤىِٕحٰتٍ ثَيِّبٰتٍ وَّاَبْكَارًا

   'Asa rabbuhu in thallaqakunna an yubdilahu azwaajan khairan minkunna muslimaatin mu'minaatin qaanitaatin taa-ibaatin 'aabidaatin saa-ihaatin tsai-yibaatin wa-abkaaran

   Maybe if he were to divorce you, your Lord might grant him in exchange wives better than you – those who truly submit to Allah, are full of faith, obedient, disposed to repentance, and given to worship and fasting – both previously wedded ones and virgins.

6. 66:6

   يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا قُوْٓا اَنْفُسَكُمْ وَاَهْلِيْكُمْ نَارًا وَّقُوْدُهَا النَّاسُ وَالْحِجَارَةُ عَلَيْهَا مَلٰۤىِٕكَةٌ غِلَاظٌ شِدَادٌ لَّا يَعْصُوْنَ اللّٰهَ مَآ اَمَرَهُمْ وَيَفْعَلُوْنَ مَا يُؤْمَرُوْنَ

   Yaa ai-yuhaal-ladziina aamanuu quu anfusakum wa-ahliikum naaran waquuduhaannaasu wal hijaaratu 'alaihaa malaa-ikatun ghilaazhun syidaadun laa ya'shuunallaha maa amarahum wayaf'aluuna maa yu'maruun(a)

   Believers, guard yourselves and your kindred against a Fire whose fuel is human beings and stones, a Fire held in the charge of fierce and stern angels who never disobey what He has commanded them, and always do what they are bidden.

7. 66:7

   يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَا تَعْتَذِرُوا الْيَوْمَۗ اِنَّمَا تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ ࣖ

   Yaa ai-yuhaal-ladziina kafaruu laa ta'tadziruul yauma innamaa tujzauna maa kuntum ta'maluun(a)

   (It will then be said): “Unbelievers, make no excuses today. You are being recompensed for nothing else but your deeds.”

8. 66:8

   يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا تُوْبُوْٓا اِلَى اللّٰهِ تَوْبَةً نَّصُوْحًاۗ عَسٰى رَبُّكُمْ اَنْ يُّكَفِّرَ عَنْكُمْ سَيِّاٰتِكُمْ وَيُدْخِلَكُمْ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُۙ يَوْمَ لَا يُخْزِى اللّٰهُ النَّبِيَّ وَالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَعَهٗۚ نُوْرُهُمْ يَسْعٰى بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَبِاَيْمَانِهِمْ يَقُوْلُوْنَ رَبَّنَآ اَتْمِمْ لَنَا نُوْرَنَا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَاۚ اِنَّكَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ

   Yaa ai-yuhaal-ladziina aamanuu tuubuu ilallahi taubatan nashuuhan 'asa rabbukum an yukaffira 'ankum sai-yi-aatikum wayudkhilakum jannaatin tajrii min tahtihaal anhaaru yauma laa yukhziillahunnabii-ya waal-ladziina aamanuu ma'ahu nuuruhum yas'a baina aidiihim wabiaimaanihim yaquuluuna rabbanaa atmim lanaa nuuranaa waaghfir lanaa innaka 'ala kulli syai-in qadiirun

   Believers, turn to Allah in sincere repentance; maybe your Lord will expunge your evil deeds and admit you to the Gardens beneath which rivers flow. This will be on the Day when Allah will not disgrace the Prophet and those who have embraced faith and are with him; their light will be running before them and on their right hands, and they will say: “Our Lord, perfect for us our light and forgive us. Surely You have power over everything.”

9. 66:9

   يٰٓاَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ جَاهِدِ الْكُفَّارَ وَالْمُنٰفِقِيْنَ وَاغْلُظْ عَلَيْهِمْۗ وَمَأْوٰىهُمْ جَهَنَّمُۗ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيْرُ

   Yaa ai-yuhaannabii-yu jaahidil kuffaara wal munaafiqiina waaghluzh 'alaihim wama'waahum jahannamu wabi-asal mashiir(u)

   O Prophet, strive against the unbelievers and the hypocrites, and be severe with them. Hell shall be their resort. What a grievous end!

10. 66:10

    ضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا لِّلَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوا امْرَاَتَ نُوْحٍ وَّامْرَاَتَ لُوْطٍۗ كَانَتَا تَحْتَ عَبْدَيْنِ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا صَالِحَيْنِ فَخَانَتٰهُمَا فَلَمْ يُغْنِيَا عَنْهُمَا مِنَ اللّٰهِ شَيْـًٔا وَّقِيْلَ ادْخُلَا النَّارَ مَعَ الدَّاخِلِيْنَ

    Dharaballahu matsalaa lil-ladziina kafaruu imraata nuuhin waamraata luuthin kaanataa tahta 'abdaini min 'ibaadinaa shaalihaini fakhaanataahumaa falam yughniyaa 'anhumaa minallahi syai-an waqiilaad-khulaannaara ma'addaakhiliin(a)

    Allah has set forth for the unbelievers the parable of the wives of Noah and Lot. They were wedded to two of Our righteous servants, but each acted treacherously with her husband, and their husbands could be of no avail to them against Allah. The two of them were told: “Enter the Fire with all the others who enter it.”

11. 66:11

    وَضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا لِّلَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوا امْرَاَتَ فِرْعَوْنَۘ اِذْ قَالَتْ رَبِّ ابْنِ لِيْ عِنْدَكَ بَيْتًا فِى الْجَنَّةِ وَنَجِّنِيْ مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَعَمَلِهٖ وَنَجِّنِيْ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِيْنَۙ

    Wadharaballahu matsalaa lil-ladziina aamanuu imraata fir'auna idz qaalat rabbiibni lii 'indaka baitan fiil jannati wanajjinii min fir'auna wa'amalihi wanajjinii minal qaumizh-zhaalimiin(a)

    Allah has set forth for the believers the parable of Pharaoh's wife. She prayed: “My Lord, build for me a house with You in Paradise and deliver me from Pharaoh and his misdeeds; and deliver me from the iniquitous people.”

12. 66:12

    وَمَرْيَمَ ابْنَتَ عِمْرٰنَ الَّتِيْٓ اَحْصَنَتْ فَرْجَهَا فَنَفَخْنَا فِيْهِ مِنْ رُّوْحِنَا وَصَدَّقَتْ بِكَلِمٰتِ رَبِّهَا وَكُتُبِهٖ وَكَانَتْ مِنَ الْقٰنِتِيْنَ ࣖ ۔

    Wamaryamaabnata 'imraanallatii ahshanat farjahaa fanafakhnaa fiihi min ruuhinaa washaddaqat bikalimaati rabbihaa wakutubihi wakaanat minal qaanitiin(a)

    Allah has also set forth the parable of Mary, the daughter of Imran, who guarded her chastity, and into whom We breathed of Our Spirit, and who testified to the words of her Lord and His Books. She was among the obedient.
