Surah Saba: Arabic, Transliteration & Translation

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

1. 34:1

   اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِيْ لَهٗ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الْاَرْضِ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِى الْاٰخِرَةِۗ وَهُوَ الْحَكِيْمُ الْخَبِيْرُ

   Al-hamdu lillahil-ladzii lahu maa fiis-samaawaati wamaa fiil ardhi walahul hamdu fii-aakhirati wahuwal hakiimul khabiir(u)

   All praise be to Allah to Whom belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth, and all praise be to Him in the World to Come. He is Most Wise, All-Aware.

2. 34:2

   يَعْلَمُ مَا يَلِجُ فِى الْاَرْضِ وَمَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا وَمَا يَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاۤءِ وَمَا يَعْرُجُ فِيْهَاۗ وَهُوَ الرَّحِيْمُ الْغَفُوْرُ

   Ya'lamu maa yaliju fiil ardhi wamaa yakhruju minhaa wamaa yanzilu minassamaa-i wamaa ya'ruju fiihaa wahuwar-rahiimul ghafuur(u)

   He knows what penetrates into the earth and what goes forth from it, what descends from the heaven and what ascends to it. He is the Most Merciful, the Most Forgiving.

3. 34:3

   وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَا تَأْتِيْنَا السَّاعَةُ ۗقُلْ بَلٰى وَرَبِّيْ لَتَأْتِيَنَّكُمْۙ عٰلِمِ الْغَيْبِۙ لَا يَعْزُبُ عَنْهُ مِثْقَالُ ذَرَّةٍ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَلَا فِى الْاَرْضِ وَلَآ اَصْغَرُ مِنْ ذٰلِكَ وَلَآ اَكْبَرُ اِلَّا فِيْ كِتٰبٍ مُّبِيْنٍۙ

   Waqaalal-ladziina kafaruu laa ta'tiinaassaa'atu qul bala warabbii lata'tiyannakum 'aalimil ghaibi laa ya'zubu 'anhu mitsqaalu dzarratin fiis-samaawaati walaa fiil ardhi walaa ashgharu min dzalika walaa akbaru ilaa fii kitaabin mubiinin

   The unbelievers say: “How come the Hour is not coming upon us!” Say to them: “Yes indeed, by my Lord, by Him Who fully knows the realm beyond the ken of perception, that the Hour shall inevitably come upon you. Nothing escapes Him, not even the smallest particle in the heavens or the earth; nor is anything smaller or bigger than that but is in a Manifest Book.”

4. 34:4

   لِّيَجْزِيَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَّرِزْقٌ كَرِيْمٌ

   Liyajziyal-ladziina aamanuu wa'amiluush-shaalihaati uula-ika lahum maghfiratun warizqun kariimun

   (The Hour shall come) that He may reward those who believe and do righteous deeds. Theirs shall be forgiveness and a generous provision.

5. 34:5

   وَالَّذِيْنَ سَعَوْ فِيْٓ اٰيٰتِنَا مُعٰجِزِيْنَ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مِّنْ رِّجْزٍ اَلِيْمٌ

   Waal-ladziina sa'au fii aayaatinaa mu'aajiziina uula-ika lahum 'adzaabun min rijzin aliimun

   As for those who worked against Our Signs in order to frustrate them, they shall suffer a painful chastisement.

6. 34:6

   وَيَرَى الَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ الَّذِيْٓ اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ هُوَ الْحَقَّۙ وَيَهْدِيْٓ اِلٰى صِرَاطِ الْعَزِيْزِ الْحَمِيْدِ

   Wayaraal-ladziina uutuul 'ilmal-ladzii unzila ilaika min rabbika huwal haqqa wayahdii ila shiraathil 'aziizil hamiid(i)

   (O Prophet), those who have knowledge see clearly that what has been revealed to you from your Lord is the Truth and directs to the Way of the Most Mighty, the Immensely Praiseworthy Lord.

7. 34:7

   وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا هَلْ نَدُلُّكُمْ عَلٰى رَجُلٍ يُّنَبِّئُكُمْ اِذَا مُزِّقْتُمْ كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍۙ اِنَّكُمْ لَفِيْ خَلْقٍ جَدِيْدٍۚ

   Waqaalal-ladziina kafaruu hal nadullukum 'ala rajulin yunabbi-ukum idzaa muzziqtum kulla mumazzaqin innakum lafii khalqin jadiidin

   The unbelievers say: “Shall we direct you to the man who tells you that when you have been utterly broken to pieces, you will be raised to life again?

8. 34:8

   اَفْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا اَمْ بِهٖ جِنَّةٌ ۗبَلِ الَّذِيْنَ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ فِى الْعَذَابِ وَالضَّلٰلِ الْبَعِيْدِ

   Aftara 'alallahi kadziban am bihi jinnatun balil-ladziina laa yu'minuuna bil-aakhirati fiil 'adzaabi wadh-dhalalil ba'iid(i)

   Has he forged a lie against Allah, or is he afflicted with madness?” Nay, but those who do not believe in the Hereafter are doomed to be chastised and are far gone in error.

9. 34:9

   اَفَلَمْ يَرَوْا اِلٰى مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ مِّنَ السَّمَاۤءِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ اِنْ نَّشَأْ نَخْسِفْ بِهِمُ الْاَرْضَ اَوْ نُسْقِطْ عَلَيْهِمْ كِسَفًا مِّنَ السَّمَاۤءِۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيَةً لِّكُلِّ عَبْدٍ مُّنِيْبٍ ࣖ

   Afalam yarau ila maa baina aidiihim wamaa khalfahum minassamaa-i wal ardhi in nasya' nakhsif bihimul ardha au nusqith 'alaihim kisafan minassamaa-i inna fii dzalika li-aayatan likulli 'abdin muniibin

   Do they not see how the heavens and the earth encompass them from the front and the rear? We could, if We so wished, cause the earth to swallow them or let fragments of the sky fall upon them. Verily there is a Sign in this for every servant (of Allah) who penitently turns to Him.

10. 34:10

    ۞ وَلَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا دَاوٗدَ مِنَّا فَضْلًاۗ يٰجِبَالُ اَوِّبِيْ مَعَهٗ وَالطَّيْرَ ۚوَاَلَنَّا لَهُ الْحَدِيْدَۙ

    Walaqad aatainaa daawuda minnaa fadhlaa yaa jibaalu au-wibii ma'ahu wath-thaira wa-alannaa lahul hadiid(a)

    We bestowed Our favour upon David. (We commanded): “O mountains, sing Allah's praises with him”; (and so did We command) the birds. We softened the iron for him, (saying):

11. 34:11

    اَنِ اعْمَلْ سٰبِغٰتٍ وَّقَدِّرْ فِى السَّرْدِ وَاعْمَلُوْا صَالِحًاۗ اِنِّيْ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِيْرٌ

    Anii'mal saabighaatin waqaddir fiissardi waa'maluu shaalihan innii bimaa ta'maluuna bashiirun

    “Fashion coats of mail and measure their links with care and act righteously. I am watching over whatever you do.”

12. 34:12

    وَلِسُلَيْمٰنَ الرِّيْحَ غُدُوُّهَا شَهْرٌ وَّرَوَاحُهَا شَهْرٌۚ وَاَسَلْنَا لَهٗ عَيْنَ الْقِطْرِۗ وَمِنَ الْجِنِّ مَنْ يَّعْمَلُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ بِاِذْنِ رَبِّهٖۗ وَمَنْ يَّزِغْ مِنْهُمْ عَنْ اَمْرِنَا نُذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ السَّعِيْرِ

    Walisulaimaanar-riiha ghuduu-wuhaa syahrun warawaahuhaa syahrun wa-asalnaa lahu 'ainal qithri waminal jinni man ya'malu baina yadaihi biidzni rabbihi waman yazigh minhum 'an amrinaa nudziqhu min 'adzaabissa'iir(i)

    And We subdued the wind to Solomon: its morning course was a month's journey and its evening course was a month's journey. We gave him a spring flowing with molten brass, and We subdued for him jinn who, by his Lord's permission, worked before him. Such of them as swerved from Our commandment, We let them taste the chastisement of the Blazing Fire.

13. 34:13

    يَعْمَلُوْنَ لَهٗ مَا يَشَاۤءُ مِنْ مَّحَارِيْبَ وَتَمَاثِيْلَ وَجِفَانٍ كَالْجَوَابِ وَقُدُوْرٍ رّٰسِيٰتٍۗ اِعْمَلُوْٓا اٰلَ دَاوٗدَ شُكْرًا ۗوَقَلِيْلٌ مِّنْ عِبَادِيَ الشَّكُوْرُ

    Ya'maluuna lahu maa yasyaa-u min mahaariiba watamaatsiila wajifaanin kal jawaabi waquduurin raasiyaatin a'maluu aala daawuda syukran waqaliilun min 'ibaadiyasy-syakuur(u)

    They made for him whatever he would desire: stately buildings, images, basins like water-troughs and huge, built-in-cauldrons: “Work, O house of David, in thankfulness (to your Lord). Few of My servants are truly thankful.”

14. 34:14

    فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتَ مَا دَلَّهُمْ عَلٰى مَوْتِهٖٓ اِلَّا دَاۤبَّةُ الْاَرْضِ تَأْكُلُ مِنْسَاَتَهٗ ۚفَلَمَّا خَرَّ تَبَيَّنَتِ الْجِنُّ اَنْ لَّوْ كَانُوْا يَعْلَمُوْنَ الْغَيْبَ مَا لَبِثُوْا فِى الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِيْنِۗ

    Falammaa qadhainaa 'alaihil mauta maa dallahum 'ala mautihi ilaa daabbatul ardhi ta'kulu minsaatahu falammaa kharra tabai-yanatil jinnu an lau kaanuu ya'lamuunal ghaiba maa labitsuu fiil 'adzaabil muhiin(i)

    When We executed Our decree of death on Solomon, nothing indicated to the jinn that he was dead except a worm eating away his staff. So when Solomon fell down, the jinn realised that had they known what lies in the realm beyond perception, they would not have continued to be in this humiliating chastisement.

15. 34:15

    لَقَدْ كَانَ لِسَبَاٍ فِيْ مَسْكَنِهِمْ اٰيَةٌ ۚجَنَّتٰنِ عَنْ يَّمِيْنٍ وَّشِمَالٍ ەۗ كُلُوْا مِنْ رِّزْقِ رَبِّكُمْ وَاشْكُرُوْا لَهٗ ۗبَلْدَةٌ طَيِّبَةٌ وَّرَبٌّ غَفُوْرٌ

    Laqad kaana lisaba-in fii maskanihim aayatun jannataani 'an yamiinin wasyimaalin kuluu min rizqi rabbikum waasykuruu lahu baldatun thai-yibatun warabbun ghafuurun

    For Sheba there was also a Sign in their dwelling place: the two gardens to the right and to the left. “Eat of your Lord's provision, and render thanks to Him. Most pleasant is your land and Most Forgiving is your Lord.”

16. 34:16

    فَاَعْرَضُوْا فَاَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ سَيْلَ الْعَرِمِ وَبَدَّلْنٰهُمْ بِجَنَّتَيْهِمْ جَنَّتَيْنِ ذَوَاتَيْ اُكُلٍ خَمْطٍ وَّاَثْلٍ وَّشَيْءٍ مِّنْ سِدْرٍ قَلِيْلٍ

    Fa-a'radhuu fa-arsalnaa 'alaihim sailal 'arimi wabaddalnaahum bijannataihim jannataini dzawaatai ukulin khamthin wa-atslin wasyai-in min sidrin qaliilin

    But they turned away and so We let loose upon them a devastating flood that swept away the dams and replaced their gardens by two others bearing bitter fruits, tamarisks, and a few lote trees.

17. 34:17

    ذٰلِكَ جَزَيْنٰهُمْ بِمَا كَفَرُوْاۗ وَهَلْ نُجٰزِيْٓ اِلَّا الْكَفُوْرَ

    Dzalika jazainaahum bimaa kafaruu wahal nujaazii ilaal kafuur(a)

    Thus did We retribute them for their ingratitude. And none do We retribute in this manner except the utterly ungrateful.

18. 34:18

    وَجَعَلْنَا بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْقُرَى الَّتِيْ بٰرَكْنَا فِيْهَا قُرًى ظَاهِرَةً وَّقَدَّرْنَا فِيْهَا السَّيْرَۗ سِيْرُوْا فِيْهَا لَيَالِيَ وَاَيَّامًا اٰمِنِيْنَ

    Waja'alnaa bainahum wabainal qurallatii baaraknaa fiihaa quran zhaahiratan waqaddarnaa fiihaassaira siiruu fiihaa layaaliya wa-ai-yaaman aaminiin(a)

    We placed other prominent towns between them, the towns that We had blessed and had set well-measured stages between them. Move back and forth between them, night and day, in perfect security.

19. 34:19

    فَقَالُوْا رَبَّنَا بٰعِدْ بَيْنَ اَسْفَارِنَا وَظَلَمُوْٓا اَنْفُسَهُمْ فَجَعَلْنٰهُمْ اَحَادِيْثَ وَمَزَّقْنٰهُمْ كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍۗ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍ شَكُوْرٍ

    Faqaaluuu rabbanaa baa'id baina asfaarinaa wazhalamuu anfusahum faja'alnaahum ahaadiitsa wamazzaqnaahum kulla mumazzaqin inna fii dzalika li-aayaatin likulli shabbaarin syakuurin

    But they said: “Lord, make the stages of our journeys longer.” They wronged their own selves so We reduced them to bygone tales, and utterly tore them to pieces. Verily there are Signs in this for everyone who is steadfast and thankful.

20. 34:20

    وَلَقَدْ صَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِمْ اِبْلِيْسُ ظَنَّهٗ فَاتَّبَعُوْهُ اِلَّا فَرِيْقًا مِّنَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ

    Walaqad shaddaqa 'alaihim ibliisu zhannahu faattaba'uuhu ilaa fariiqan minal mu'miniin(a)

    Iblis found his estimate of them to be true, and they followed him, except a party of the believers.

21. 34:21

    وَمَا كَانَ لَهٗ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّنْ سُلْطَانٍ اِلَّا لِنَعْلَمَ مَنْ يُّؤْمِنُ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ مِمَّنْ هُوَ مِنْهَا فِيْ شَكٍّ ۗوَرَبُّكَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَفِيْظٌ ࣖ

    Wamaa kaana lahu 'alaihim min sulthaanin ilaa lina'lama man yu'minu bil-aakhirati mimman huwa minhaa fii syakkin warabbuka 'ala kulli syai-in hafiizhun

    Iblis had no authority over them and whatever happened was in order that We might know him who believes in the Hereafter as distinct from him who is in doubt about it. Your Lord is watchful over everything.

22. 34:22

    قُلِ ادْعُوا الَّذِيْنَ زَعَمْتُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِۚ لَا يَمْلِكُوْنَ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَلَا فِى الْاَرْضِ وَمَا لَهُمْ فِيْهِمَا مِنْ شِرْكٍ وَّمَا لَهٗ مِنْهُمْ مِّنْ ظَهِيْرٍ

    Quliid'uul-ladziina za'amtum min duunillahi laa yamlikuuna mitsqaala dzarratin fiis-samaawaati walaa fiil ardhi wamaa lahum fiihimaa min syirkin wamaa lahu minhum min zhahiirin

    (O Prophet), say to those who associate others with Allah in His Divinity: “Call upon those whom you fancied to be deities beside Allah. They own not even the smallest particle, neither in the heavens nor on the earth; nor do they have any share in the ownership of either of them. Nor is any of them even a helper of Allah.

23. 34:23

    وَلَا تَنْفَعُ الشَّفَاعَةُ عِنْدَهٗٓ اِلَّا لِمَنْ اَذِنَ لَهٗ ۗحَتّٰىٓ اِذَا فُزِّعَ عَنْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ قَالُوْا مَاذَاۙ قَالَ رَبُّكُمْۗ قَالُوا الْحَقَّۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَبِيْرُ

    Walaa tanfa'usy-syafaa'atu 'indahu ilaa liman adzina lahu hatta idzaa fuzzi'a 'an quluubihim qaaluuu maadzaa qaala rabbukum qaaluuul haqqa wahuwal 'alii-yul kabiir(u)

    No intercession can avail with Allah except for him whom Allah permits (to intercede). When their hearts are relieved of fright they will ask the intercessors: “What did your Lord say?” They will reply: “(He said) what is right, and He is the High, the Great.”

24. 34:24

    ۞ قُلْ مَنْ يَّرْزُقُكُمْ مِّنَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِۗ قُلِ اللّٰهُ ۙوَاِنَّآ اَوْ اِيَّاكُمْ لَعَلٰى هُدًى اَوْ فِيْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيْنٍ

    Qul man yarzuqukum minas-samaawaati wal ardhi qulillahu wa-innaa au ii-yaakum la'ala hudan au fii dhalalin mubiinin

    Ask them, (O Prophet): “Who provides you sustenance from the heavens and the earth?” Say: “Allah. Now, inevitably only one of us is rightly guided, either we or you; and the other is in manifest error.”

25. 34:25

    قُلْ لَّا تُسْـَٔلُوْنَ عَمَّآ اَجْرَمْنَا وَلَا نُسْـَٔلُ عَمَّا تَعْمَلُوْنَ

    Qul laa tusaluuna 'ammaa ajramnaa walaa nusalu 'ammaa ta'maluun(a)

    Tell them: “You will not be called to account about the guilt we committed, nor will we be called to account for what you did.”

26. 34:26

    قُلْ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَنَا رَبُّنَا ثُمَّ يَفْتَحُ بَيْنَنَا بِالْحَقِّۗ وَهُوَ الْفَتَّاحُ الْعَلِيْمُ

    Qul yajma'u bainanaa rabbunaa tsumma yaftahu bainanaa bil haqqi wahuwal fattaahul 'aliim(u)

    Say: “Our Lord will bring us together and then He will rightly judge between us. He is the Great Judge, the All-Knowing.”

27. 34:27

    قُلْ اَرُوْنِيَ الَّذِيْنَ اَلْحَقْتُمْ بِهٖ شُرَكَاۤءَ كَلَّا ۗبَلْ هُوَ اللّٰهُ الْعَزِيْزُ الْحَكِيْمُ

    Qul aruuniyal-ladziina alhaqtum bihi syurakaa-a kalaa bal huwallahul 'aziizul hakiim(u)

    Say: “Show me those whom you have attached to Him as His associates (in Divinity).” Nay, Allah alone is Most Mighty, Most Wise.

28. 34:28

    وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنٰكَ اِلَّا كَاۤفَّةً لِّلنَّاسِ بَشِيْرًا وَّنَذِيْرًا وَّلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ

    Wamaa arsalnaaka ilaa kaaffatan li-nnaasi basyiiran wanadziiran walakinna aktsarannaasi laa ya'lamuun(a)

    (O Prophet), We have not sent you forth but as a herald of good news and a warner for all mankind. But most people do not know.

29. 34:29

    وَيَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰى هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ

    Wayaquuluuna mata hadzaal wa'du in kuntum shaadiqiin(a)

    They ask you: “When will this promise (of Resurrection) be fulfilled, if what you say is true?”

30. 34:30

    قُلْ لَّكُمْ مِّيْعَادُ يَوْمٍ لَّا تَسْتَأْخِرُوْنَ عَنْهُ سَاعَةً وَّلَا تَسْتَقْدِمُوْنَ ࣖ

    Qul lakum mii'aadu yaumin laa tasta'khiruuna 'anhu saa'atan walaa tastaqdimuun(a)

    Say: “Your day is appointed, you can neither hold back its coming by an hour, nor hasten it by an hour.”

31. 34:31

    وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَنْ نُّؤْمِنَ بِهٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنِ وَلَا بِالَّذِيْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِۗ وَلَوْ تَرٰىٓ اِذِ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ مَوْقُوْفُوْنَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْۖ يَرْجِعُ بَعْضُهُمْ اِلٰى بَعْضِ ِۨالْقَوْلَۚ يَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ اسْتُضْعِفُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا لَوْلَآ اَنْتُمْ لَكُنَّا مُؤْمِنِيْنَ

    Waqaalal-ladziina kafaruu lan nu'mina bihadzaal quraani walaa biil-ladzii baina yadaihi walau tara idzizh-zhaalimuuna mauquufuuna 'inda rabbihim yarji'u ba'dhuhum ila ba'dhil qaula yaquulul-ladziina-astudh'ifuu lil-ladziina-astakbaruu laulaa antum lakunnaa mu'miniin(a)

    The unbelievers say: “We shall never believe in this Qur'an, nor in any Scripture before it.” If you could only see the wrong-doers arrayed before their Lord, each bandying charges against the other. Those who were suppressed will say to those who waxed arrogant: “Had it not been for you, we would have been believers.”

32. 34:32

    قَالَ الَّذِيْنَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ اسْتُضْعِفُوْٓا اَنَحْنُ صَدَدْنٰكُمْ عَنِ الْهُدٰى بَعْدَ اِذْ جَاۤءَكُمْ بَلْ كُنْتُمْ مُّجْرِمِيْنَ

    Qaalal-ladziina-astakbaruu lil-ladziina-astudh'ifuu anahnu shadadnaakum 'anil huda ba'da idz jaa-akum bal kuntum mujrimiin(a)

    The arrogant ones will retort to those who were suppressed: “What! Did we bar you from the guidance after it came to you? Not at all; rather you yourselves were evil-doers.”

33. 34:33

    وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ اسْتُضْعِفُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا بَلْ مَكْرُ الَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ اِذْ تَأْمُرُوْنَنَآ اَنْ نَّكْفُرَ بِاللّٰهِ وَنَجْعَلَ لَهٗٓ اَنْدَادًا ۗوَاَسَرُّوا النَّدَامَةَ لَمَّا رَاَوُا الْعَذَابَۗ وَجَعَلْنَا الْاَغْلٰلَ فِيْٓ اَعْنَاقِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْاۗ هَلْ يُجْزَوْنَ اِلَّا مَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ

    Waqaalal-ladziina-astudh'ifuu lil-ladziina-astakbaruu bal makrullaili wannahaari idz ta'muruunanaa an nakfura billahi wanaj'ala lahu andaadan wa-asarruunnadaamata lammaa raawuul 'adzaaba waja'alnaal aghlaala fii a'naaqil-ladziina kafaruu hal yujzauna ilaa maa kaanuu ya'maluun(a)

    Those who were suppressed will say to those who waxed arrogant: “By no means; it was your scheming, night and day, when you would enjoin us to disbelieve in Allah and set up others as equals to Him.” When they are confronted with the chastisement, they will be remorseful in their hearts. We shall put fetters around the necks of the unbelievers. Can people be requited except for their deeds?

34. 34:34

    وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا فِيْ قَرْيَةٍ مِّنْ نَّذِيْرٍ ِالَّا قَالَ مُتْرَفُوْهَآ ۙاِنَّا بِمَآ اُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهٖ كٰفِرُوْنَ

    Wamaa arsalnaa fii qaryatin min nadziirin ilaa qaala mutrafuuhaa innaa bimaa ursiltum bihi kaafiruun(a)

    We never sent a warner to any town but its wealthy ones said: “We disbelieve in the Message you have brought.”

35. 34:35

    وَقَالُوْا نَحْنُ اَكْثَرُ اَمْوَالًا وَّاَوْلَادًاۙ وَّمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِيْنَ

    Waqaaluuu nahnu aktsaru amwaaalan wa-aulaadan wamaa nahnu bimu'adz-dzabiin(a)

    They always said: “We have more wealth and children than you have, and we shall not be chastised.”

36. 34:36

    It is not your riches nor your children that make you near-stationed to Us, except for him who has faith and acts righteously; it is they who will receive double the recompense for their deeds. They shall live in lofty mansions in perfect peace.

38. 34:38

    وَالَّذِيْنَ يَسْعَوْنَ فِيْٓ اٰيٰتِنَا مُعٰجِزِيْنَ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ فِى الْعَذَابِ مُحْضَرُوْنَ

    Qaaluuu subhaanaka anta walii-yunaa min duunihim bal kaanuu ya'buduunal jinna aktsaruhum bihim mu'minuun(a)

    They will reply: “Glory to You! You are our Protector, not they. Nay, they rather used to worship the jinn. Most of them believe in them.”

42. 34:42

    فَالْيَوْمَ لَا يَمْلِكُ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ نَّفْعًا وَّلَا ضَرًّا ۗوَنَقُوْلُ لِلَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا ذُوْقُوْا عَذَابَ النَّارِ الَّتِيْ كُنْتُمْ بِهَا تُكَذِّبُوْنَ

    Today none of you has the power to benefit or harm another; and We shall say to the evil-doers: “Taste now the chastisement of the Fire which you used to deny, calling it a lie.”

43. 34:43

    وَاِذَا تُتْلٰى عَلَيْهِمْ اٰيٰتُنَا بَيِّنٰتٍ قَالُوْا مَا هٰذَآ اِلَّا رَجُلٌ يُّرِيْدُ اَنْ يَّصُدَّكُمْ عَمَّا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اٰبَاۤؤُكُمْ ۚوَقَالُوْا مَا هٰذَآ اِلَّآ اِفْكٌ مُّفْتَرًىۗ وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لِلْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَاۤءَهُمْۙ اِنْ هٰذَآ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ

    When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them they say: “This is a person who wants to turn you away from the deities whom your ancestors worshipped.” They say: “This is nothing but an invented falsehood.” And when the Truth came to the unbelievers they declared: “This is nothing but plain sorcery,”

44. 34:44

    وَمَآ اٰتَيْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ كُتُبٍ يَّدْرُسُوْنَهَا وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَآ اِلَيْهِمْ قَبْلَكَ مِنْ نَّذِيْرٍۗ

    Wamaa aatainaahum min kutubin yadrusuunahaa wamaa arsalnaa ilaihim qablaka min nadziirin

    whereas We gave them no Books that they could study nor sent to them any warner before you.

45. 34:45

    وَكَذَّبَ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْۙ وَمَا بَلَغُوْا مِعْشَارَ مَآ اٰتَيْنٰهُمْ فَكَذَّبُوْا رُسُلِيْۗ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ نَكِيْرِ ࣖ

    Those who went before them also denounced (Allah's Messengers) as liars. They have not attained even a tenth of what We had given them. But when they rejected My Messengers, calling them liars, how terrible was My chastisement!

46. 34:46

    ۞ قُلْ اِنَّمَآ اَعِظُكُمْ بِوَاحِدَةٍۚ اَنْ تَقُوْمُوْا لِلّٰهِ مَثْنٰى وَفُرَادٰى ثُمَّ تَتَفَكَّرُوْاۗ مَا بِصَاحِبِكُمْ مِّنْ جِنَّةٍۗ اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا نَذِيْرٌ لَّكُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ عَذَابٍ شَدِيْدٍ

    Say to them, (O Prophet): “I give you but one counsel: stand up (for heaven's sake), singly and in pairs, and then think: what is it in your companion (to wit, Muhammad) that could be deemed as madness?” He is nothing but a warner, warning you before the coming of a grevious chastisement.

47. 34:47

    قُلْ مَا سَاَلْتُكُمْ مِّنْ اَجْرٍ فَهُوَ لَكُمْۗ اِنْ اَجْرِيَ اِلَّا عَلَى اللّٰهِ ۚوَهُوَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيْدٌ

    Qul in dhalaltu fa-innamaa adhillu 'ala nafsii wa-ini ihtadaitu fabimaa yuuhii ilai-ya rabbii innahu samii'un qariibun

    Say: “If I go astray then the hurt of straying will come only upon me. But if I am rightly-guided, that is only because of the revelation that my Lord makes to me. He is All-Hearing, Ever Nigh.”

51. 34:51

    وَلَوْ تَرٰىٓ اِذْ فَزِعُوْا فَلَا فَوْتَ وَاُخِذُوْا مِنْ مَّكَانٍ قَرِيْبٍۙ

    Walau tara idz fazi'uu falaa fa-uta wa-ukhidzuu min makaanin qariibin

    If you could only see when the unbelievers will go about in a state of terror. They will have no escape and will be seized from a place near at hand.

52. 34:52

    وَّقَالُوْٓا اٰمَنَّا بِهٖۚ وَاَنّٰى لَهُمُ التَّنَاوُشُ مِنْ مَّكَانٍۢ بَعِيْدٍۚ

    Waqaaluuu aamannaa bihi wa-anna lahumuttanaawusyu min makaanin ba'iidin

    They will then say: “We believe in it”; but whence can they attain it from so far-off a place?

53. 34:53

    وَقَدْ كَفَرُوْا بِهٖ مِنْ قَبْلُۚ وَيَقْذِفُوْنَ بِالْغَيْبِ مِنْ مَّكَانٍۢ بَعِيْدٍۚ

    Waqad kafaruu bihi min qablu wayaqdzifuuna bil ghaibi min makaanin ba'iidin

    They disbelieved in it before and indulged in conjectures from far away.

    Wahiila bainahum wabaina maa yasytahuuna kamaa fu'ila biasyyaa'ihim min qablu innahum kaanuu fii syakkin muriibin

    A barrier will be placed between them and what they desire, as was done with the likes of them before. Surely they were in a disquieting doubt.
