## 1-9

| | In the name of God, the Almighty, the Most Merciful. | Bismi Allahi alrrahmani alrraheemi |
| 039:001 | The sending down of the Scripture is from God, the Noble, the Wise. | Tanzeelu alkitabi mina Allahi alAAazeezi alhakeemi |
| 039:002 | We have sent down to you the Scripture with truth, so serve God while devoting the system to Him. | Inna anzalna ilayka alkitaba bialhaqqi faoAAbudi Allaha mukhlisan lahu alddeena |
| 039:003 | Absolutely, to God is the true system. And those who set up allies besides Him: "We only serve them so that they may bring us closer to God." God will judge between them in what they dispute. Surely, God does not guide him who is a liar, a rejecter. | Ala lillahi alddeenu alkhalisu waallatheena ittakhathoo min doonihi awliyaa ma naAAbuduhum illa liyuqarriboona ila Allahi zulfa inna Allaha yahkumu baynahum fee ma hum feehi yakhtalifoona inna Allaha la yahdee man huwa kathibun kaffarun |
| 039:004 | If God wished to take a son, He could have exalted from among His creation what He pleases. Be He glorified; He is God, the One, the Supreme. | Law arada Allahu an yattakhitha waladan laistafa mimma yakhluqu ma yashao subhanahu huwa Allahu alwahidu alqahharu |
| 039:005 | He created the heavens and the Earth with truth. He rolls the night over the day, and He rolls the day over the night. And He committed the sun and the moon, each running for an appointed term. Absolutely, He is the Noble, the Forgiving. | Khalaqa alssamawati waal-arda bialhaqqi yukawwiru allayla AAala alnnahari wayukawwiru alnnahara AAala allayli wasakhkhara alshshamsa waalqamara kullun yajree li-ajalin musamman ala huwa alAAazeezu alghaffaru |
| 039:006 | He created you from one person, then He made from it its mate. And He sent down to you eight pairs of the livestock. He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, a creation after a creation in three darkness's. Such is God your Lord. To Him belongs the sovereignty. There is no god besides Him. How is it then you deviate? | Khalaqakum min nafsin wahidatin thumma jaAAala minha zawjaha waanzala lakum mina al-anAAami thamaniyata azwajin yakhluqukum fee butooni ommahatikum khalqan min baAAdi khalqin fee thulumatin thalathin thalikumu Allahu rabbukum lahu almulku la ilaha illa huwa faanna tusrafoona |
| 039:007 | If you reject, then know that God is in no need of you, and He dislikes rejection for His servants. And if you are appreciative, He is pleased for you. And none shall bear the burdens of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you of everything you had done. He is fully aware of what is inside the chests. | In takfuroo fa-inna Allaha ghaniyyun AAankum wala yarda liAAibadihi alkufra wa-in tashkuroo yardahu lakum wala taziru waziratun wizra okhra thumma ila rabbikum marjiAAukum fayunabbi-okum bima kuntum taAAmaloona innahu AAaleemun bithati alssudoori |
| 039:008 | And when the human being is afflicted with adversity, he implores his Lord, turning in repentance to Him. But then, when He grants him a blessing from Him, he forgets his previous imploring, and sets up equals with God, in order to mislead others from His path. Say: "Enjoy your rejection for a while; for you are of the dwellers of the Fire." | Wa-itha massa al-insana durrun daAAa rabbahu muneeban ilayhi thumma itha khawwalahu niAAmatan minhu nasiya ma kana yadAAoo ilayhi min qablu wajaAAala lillahi andadan liyudilla AAan sabeelihi qul tamattaAA bikufrika qaleelan innaka min as-habi alnnari |
| 039:009 | As for one who is meditating in the night, prostrating and standing, fearing the Hereafter, and seeking the mercy of his Lord. Say: "Are those who know equal to those who do not know?" Only those who possess understanding will remember. | Amman huwa qanitun anaa allayli sajidan waqa-iman yahtharu al-akhirata wayarjoo rahmata rabbihi qul hal yastawee allatheena yaAAlamoona waallatheena la yaAAlamoona innama yatathakkaru oloo al-albabi |

## 10-21

| 039:010 | Say: "O My servants who believed, be aware of your Lord." For those who worked righteousness in this world will be a good reward, and God's Earth is spacious. Those who steadfastly persevere will receive their recompense fully, without reckoning. | Qul ya AAibadi allatheena amanoo ittaqoo rabbakum lillatheena ahsanoo fee hathihi alddunya hasanatun waardu Allahi wasiAAatun innama yuwaffa alssabiroona ajrahum bighayri hisabin |
| 039:011 | Say: "I have been commanded to serve God, devoting the system to Him." | Qul innee omirtu an aAAbuda Allaha mukhlisan lahu alddeena |
| 039:012 | "And I was commanded to be the first of those who surrender." | Waomirtu li-an akoona awwala almuslimeena |
| 039:013 | Say: "I fear, if I disobeyed my Lord, the retribution of a great Day." | Qul innee akhafu in AAasaytu rabbee AAathaba yawmin AAatheemin |
| 039:014 | Say: "God is the One I serve, devoting my system to Him." | Quli Allaha aAAbudu mukhlisan lahu deenee |
| 039:015 | "Therefore, serve whatever you wish besides Him." Say: "The losers are those who lose their souls, and their families, on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, such is the real loss." | FaoAAbudoo ma shi/tum min doonihi qul inna alkhasireena allatheena khasiroo anfusahum waahleehim yawma alqiyamati ala thalika huwa alkhusranu almubeenu |
| 039:016 | They will have coverings of fire from above them and below them. It is as such that God makes His servants fearful: "O My servants, you shall reverence Me." | Lahum min fawqihim thulalun mina alnnari wamin tahtihim thulalun thalika yukhawwifu Allahu bihi AAibadahu ya AAibadi faittaqooni |
| 039:017 | And for those who avoid serving evil, and turn to God in repentance, for them are glad tidings. So give the good news to My servants. | Waallatheena ijtanaboo alttaghoota an yaAAbudooha waanaboo ila Allahi lahumu albushra fabashshir AAibadi |
| 039:018 | The ones who listen to what is being said, and then follow the best of it. These are the ones whom God has guided, and these are the ones who possess intelligence. | Allatheena yastamiAAoona alqawla fayattabiAAoona ahsanahu ola-ika allatheena hadahumu Allahu waola-ika hum oloo al-albabi |
| 039:019 | As for those who have deserved the retribution; can you save those who are in the Fire? | Afaman haqqa AAalayhi kalimatu alAAathabi afaanta tunqithu man fee alnnari |
| 039:020 | But those who reverence their Lord, they will have dwellings constructed upon dwellings, with rivers flowing beneath them. God's promise, and God does not break the promise. | Lakini allatheena ittaqaw rabbahum lahum ghurafun min fawqiha ghurafun mabniyyatun tajree min tahtiha al-anharu waAAda Allahi la yukhlifu Allahu almeeAAada |
| 039:021 | Do you not see that God sends down water from the sky, and causes it to become streams through the land, then He produces with it plants of various colors, then they grow until they turn yellow, then He makes them dry and broken? In this is a reminder for those of understanding. | Alam tara anna Allaha anzala mina alssama-i maan fasalakahu yanabeeAAa fee al-ardi thumma yukhriju bihi zarAAan mukhtalifan alwanuhu thumma yaheeju fatarahu musfarran thumma yajAAaluhu hutaman inna fee thalika lathikra li-olee al-albabi |

## 22-31

| 039:022 | As for he who opens his chest to surrender, then he will be on a light from his Lord. So woe to those whose hearts are hardened against remembering God. They have gone far astray. | Afaman sharaha Allahu sadrahu lil-islami fahuwa AAala noorin min rabbihi fawaylun lilqasiyati quloobuhum min thikri Allahi ola-ika fee dalalin mubeenin |
| 039:023 | God has sent down the best narration, a Scripture that is similar with two paths. The skins of those who reverence their Lord shiver from it, then their skins and their hearts soften up to the remembrance of God. Such is God's guidance; He guides with it whoever He wills. And for whomever God misguides, then none can guide him. | Allahu nazzala ahsana alhadeethi kitaban mutashabihan mathaniya taqshaAAirru minhu juloodu allatheena yakhshawna rabbahum thumma taleenu julooduhum waquloobuhum ila thikri Allahi thalika huda Allahi yahdee bihi man yashao waman yudlili Allahu fama lahu min hadin |
| 039:024 | As for he who saves his face from the terrible retribution on the Day of Resurrection; and it will be said to the transgressors: "Taste for what you have earned." | Afaman yattaqee biwajhihi soo-a alAAathabi yawma alqiyamati waqeela lilththalimeena thooqoo ma kuntum taksiboona |
| 039:025 | Those before them have denied, and thus the retribution came to them from where they did not perceive. | Kaththaba allatheena min qablihim faatahumu alAAathabu min haythu la yashAAuroona |
| 039:026 | So God made them taste the humiliation in this worldly life, but the retribution in the Hereafter is far greater, if only they knew. | Faathaqahumu Allahu alkhizya fee alhayati alddunya walaAAathabu al-akhirati akbaru law kanoo yaAAlamoona |
| 039:027 | And We have cited for the people in this Quran from every example, that they may take heed. | Walaqad darabna lilnnasi fee hatha alqur-ani min kulli mathalin laAAallahum yatathakkaroona |
| 039:028 | A Quran in Arabic, without any crookedness, that they may be righteous. | Qur-anan AAarabiyyan ghayra thee AAiwajin laAAallahum yattaqoona |
| 039:029 | God cites the example of a man who has partners that dispute with each other, and a man who has given to dealing with only one man. Are they the same? Praise be to God; most of them do not know. | Daraba Allahu mathalan rajulan feehi shurakao mutashakisoona warajulan salaman lirajulin hal yastawiyani mathalan alhamdu lillahi bal aktharuhum la yaAAlamoona |
| 039:030 | You will die, and they will die. | Innaka mayyitun wa-innahum mayyitoona |
| 039:031 | Then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will quarrel at your Lord. | Thumma innakum yawma alqiyamati AAinda rabbikum takhtasimoona |

## 32-41

| 039:032 | Who then is more wicked than one who lies about God, and denies the truth when it comes to him? Is there not in Hell an abode for the rejecters? | Faman athlamu mimman kathaba AAala Allahi wakaththaba bialssidqi ith jaahu alaysa fee jahannama mathwan lilkafireena |
| 039:033 | And those who came with the truth, and believed in it, these are the righteous. | Waallathee jaa bialssidqi wasaddaqa bihi ola-ika humu almuttaqoona |
| 039:034 | They shall have what they wish at their Lord. Such is the reward for the good doers. | Lahum ma yashaoona AAinda rabbihim thalika jazao almuhsineena |
| 039:035 | So that God may cancel for them the worst that they did, and He may recompense them their reward for the best of what they used to do. | Liyukaffira Allahu AAanhum aswaa allathee AAamiloo wayajziyahum ajrahum bi-ahsani allathee kanoo yaAAmaloona |
| 039:036 | Is God not enough for His servant? And they frighten you with others beside Him. And whomever God sends astray, then for him there will be no guide. | Alaysa Allahu bikafin AAabdahu wayukhawwifoonaka biallatheena min doonihi waman yudlili Allahu fama lahu min hadin |
| 039:037 | And whomever God guides, then there will be none that can mislead him. Is God not Noble, with Vengeance? | Waman yahdi Allahu fama lahu min mudillin alaysa Allahu biAAazeezin thee intiqamin |
| 039:038 | And if you ask them: "Who created the heavens and the Earth?", they will Say: "God." Say: "Do you see what you call on besides God, If God wanted any harm for me, can they alleviate His harm? Or if He wanted a mercy for me, can they hold back his mercy?" Say: "God is sufficient for me; in Him those who trust shall put their trust." | Wala-in saaltahum man khalaqa alssamawati waal-arda layaqoolunna Allahu qul afaraaytum ma tadAAoona min dooni Allahi in aradaniya Allahu bidurrin hal hunna kashifatu durrihi aw aradanee birahmatin hal hunna mumsikatu rahmatihi qul hasbiya Allahu AAalayhi yatawakkalu almutawakkiloona |
| 039:039 | Say: "O my people, work according to your way, and I will work. You will come to know." | Qul ya qawmi iAAmaloo AAala makanatikum innee AAamilun fasawfa taAAlamoona |
| 039:040 | "To whom the humiliating retribution will come, and on whom descends the eternal retribution." | Man ya/teehi AAathabun yukhzeehi wayahillu AAalayhi AAathabun muqeemun |
| 039:041 | We have sent down to you the Scripture for the people with truth. Then, whoever is guided is guided for himself, and whoever goes astray goes astray to his own loss. And you are not a keeper over them. | Inna anzalna AAalayka alkitaba lilnnasi bialhaqqi famani ihtada falinafsihi waman dalla fa-innama yadillu AAalayha wama anta AAalayhim biwakeelin |

## 42-52

| 039:042 | God takes the souls when they die, and during their sleep. He then keeps those that have been overtaken by death, and He sends the others back until a predetermined time. In that are signs for a people who will think. | Allahu yatawaffa al-anfusa heena mawtiha waallatee lam tamut fee manamiha fayumsiku allatee qada AAalayha almawta wayursilu al-okhra ila ajalin musamman inna fee thalika laayatin liqawmin yatafakkaroona |
| 039:043 | Or have they taken intercessors besides God? Say: "What if they do not possess any power, nor understanding?" | Ami ittakhathoo min dooni Allahi shufaAAaa qul awa law kanoo la yamlikoona shay-an wala yaAAqiloona |
| 039:044 | Say: "To God belong all intercessions." To Him belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the Earth, then to Him you will be returned. | Qul lillahi alshshafaAAatu jameeAAan lahu mulku alssamawati waal-ardi thumma ilayhi turjaAAoona |
| 039:045 | And when God Alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter are filled with aversion; and when others are mentioned beside Him, they rejoice! | Wa-itha thukira Allahu wahdahu ishmaazzat quloobu allatheena la yu/minoona bial-akhirati wa-itha thukira allatheena min doonihi itha hum yastabshiroona |
| 039:046 | Say: "O God, Initiator of the heavens and the Earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You will judge between Your servants regarding what they disputed in." | Quli allahumma fatira alssamawati waal-ardi AAalima alghaybi waalshshahadati anta tahkumu bayna AAibadika fee ma kanoo feehi yakhtalifoona |
| 039:047 | And if those who transgressed owned everything on Earth, and its equivalent again with it, they would ransom it to avoid the terrible retribution on the Day of Resurrection. They will be shown by God what they did not expect. | Walaw anna lillatheena thalamoo ma fee al-ardi jameeAAan wamithlahu maAAahu laiftadaw bihi min soo-i alAAathabi yawma alqiyamati wabada lahum mina Allahi ma lam yakoonoo yahtasiboona |
| 039:048 | And the sinful works they had earned will be shown to them, and they will be surrounded by that which they used to mock! | Wabada lahum sayyi-atu ma kasaboo wahaqa bihim ma kanoo bihi yastahzi-oona |
| 039:049 | So when the human is touched by adversity, he implores Us, then when We bestow a blessing upon him, he says: "I attained this because of knowledge I had!" Indeed, it is a test, but most of them do not know. | Fa-itha massa al-insana durrun daAAana thumma itha khawwalnahu niAAmatan minna qala innama ooteetuhu AAala AAilmin bal hiya fitnatun walakinna aktharahum la yaAAlamoona |
| 039:050 | Those before them have said the same thing, yet what they earned did not help them in the least. | Qad qalaha allatheena min qablihim fama aghna AAanhum ma kanoo yaksiboona |
| 039:051 | So, they suffered the evil of what they had earned. And those who transgressed from among these here will suffer the evil of what they earned; they cannot escape. | Faasabahum sayyi-atu ma kasaboo waallatheena thalamoo min haola-i sayuseebuhum sayyi-atu ma kasaboo wama hum bimuAAjizeena |
| 039:052 | Do they not realise that God spreads the provision for whomever He chooses, and withholds? In that are signs for a people who believe. | Awa lam yaAAlamoo anna Allaha yabsutu alrrizqa liman yashao wayaqdiru inna fee thalika laayatin liqawmin yu/minoona |

## 53-63

| 039:053 | Say: "O My servants who transgressed against themselves, do not despair of God's mercy. For God forgives all sins. He is the Forgiver, the Merciful." | Qul ya AAibadiya allatheena asrafoo AAala anfusihim la taqnatoo min rahmati Allahi inna Allaha yaghfiru alththunooba jameeAAan innahu huwa alghafooru alrraheemu |
| 039:054 | And repent to your Lord, and surrender to Him, before the retribution comes to you. Then you cannot be helped. | Waaneeboo ila rabbikum waaslimoo lahu min qabli an ya/tiyakumu alAAathabu thumma la tunsaroona |
| 039:055 | And follow the best of what has been sent down to you from your Lord, before the retribution comes to you suddenly when you least expect it. | WaittabiAAoo ahsana ma onzila ilaykum min rabbikum min qabli an ya/tiyakumu alAAathabu baghtatan waantum la tashAAuroona |
| 039:056 | Lest a soul will Say: "How sorry I am for disregarding God's path; and I was certainly one of those who mocked." | An taqoola nafsun ya hasrata AAala ma farrattu fee janbi Allahi wa-in kuntu lamina alssakhireena |
| 039:057 | Or Say: "Had God guided me, I would have been among the righteous." | Aw taqoola law anna Allaha hadanee lakuntu mina almuttaqeena |
| 039:058 | Or say, when it sees the retribution: "If only I could have another chance, I would be among the good doers." | Aw taqoola heena tara alAAathaba law anna lee karratan faakoona mina almuhsineena |
| 039:059 | Yes indeed, My revelations came to you, but you denied them and turned arrogant, and became one of the rejecters. | Bala qad jaatka ayatee fakaththabta biha waistakbarta wakunta mina alkafireena |
| 039:060 | And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied about God their faces will be blackened. Is there not an abode in Hell for the arrogant ones? | Wayawma alqiyamati tara allatheena kathaboo AAala Allahi wujoohuhum muswaddatun alaysa fee jahannama mathwan lilmutakabbireena |
| 039:061 | And God will save those who were righteous as their reward. No harm will touch them, nor will they grieve. | Wayunajjee Allahu allatheena ittaqaw bimafazatihim la yamassuhumu alssoo-o wala hum yahzanoona |
| 039:062 | God is the Creator of all things, and He is Guardian over all things. | Allahu khaliqu kulli shay-in wahuwa AAala kulli shay-in wakeelun |
| 039:063 | To Him belongs the keys of the heavens and the Earth. And those who rejected God's revelations, they are the losers. | Lahu maqaleedu alssamawati waal-ardi waallatheena kafaroo bi-ayati Allahi ola-ika humu alkhasiroona |

## 64-70

| 039:064 | Say: "Do you order me to serve other than God, O you ignorant ones?" | Qul afaghayra Allahi ta/muroonnee aAAbudu ayyuha aljahiloona |
| 039:065 | And He has inspired to you and to those before you, that if you set up partners, He will nullify all your work, and you will be of the losers. | Walaqad oohiya ilayka wa-ila allatheena min qablika la-in ashrakta layahbatanna AAamaluka walatakoonanna mina alkhasireena |
| 039:066 | Therefore, you shall serve God, and be among the appreciative. | Bali Allaha faoAAbud wakun mina alshshakireena |
| 039:067 | And they have not given God His true worth; and the whole Earth is within His fist on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand. Be He glorified; He is much too high above what they set up. | Wama qadaroo Allaha haqqa qadrihi waal-ardu jameeAAan qabdatuhu yawma alqiyamati waalssamawatu matwiyyatun biyameenihi subhanahu wataAAala AAamma yushrikoona |
| 039:068 | And the horn will be blown, whereupon everyone in the heavens and the Earth will be struck unconscious, except those spared by God. Then it will be blown another time, whereupon they will all rise up, looking. | Wanufikha fee alssoori fasaAAiqa man fee alssamawati waman fee al-ardi illa man shaa Allahu thumma nufikha feehi okhra fa-itha hum qiyamun yanthuroona |
| 039:069 | And the Earth will shine with the light of its Lord, and the record will be placed, and the prophets and the witnesses will be brought forth; and it will then be judged between them with truth, and they will not be wronged. | Waashraqati al-ardu binoori rabbiha wawudiAAa alkitabu wajee-a bialnnabiyyeena waalshshuhada-i waqudiya baynahum bialhaqqi wahum la yuthlamoona |
| 039:070 | And every soul will be paid for whatever it did, for He is fully aware of everything they have done. | Wawuffiyat kullu nafsin ma AAamilat wahuwa aAAlamu bima yafAAaloona |

## 71-75

| 039:071 | And those who rejected will be driven to Hell in groups. When they reach it, and its gates are opened, its guards will say to them: "Did you not receive messengers from among you, who recited to you the revelations of your Lord, and warned you about meeting this Day?" They said: "Yes, but the promise of retribution was destined to be upon the rejecters." | Waseeqa allatheena kafaroo ila jahannama zumaran hatta itha jaooha futihat abwabuha waqala lahum khazanatuha alam ya/tikum rusulun minkum yatloona AAalaykum ayati rabbikum wayunthiroonakum liqaa yawmikum hatha qaloo bala walakin haqqat kalimatu alAAathabi AAala alkafireena |
| 039:072 | It was said: "Enter the gates of Hell, wherein you will abide. What a miserable destiny for the arrogant." | Qeela odkhuloo abwaba jahannama khalideena feeha fabi/sa mathwa almutakabbireena |
| 039:073 | And those who reverenced their Lord will be driven to Paradise in groups. When they reach it, and its gates are opened, its guards will say to them: "Peace be upon you. You have done well, so enter to abide herein." | Waseeqa allatheena ittaqaw rabbahum ila aljannati zumaran hatta itha jaooha wafutihat abwabuha waqala lahum khazanatuha salamun AAalaykum tibtum faodkhulooha khalideena |
| 039:074 | And they said: "Praise be to God who has fulfilled His promise to us, and He made us inherit the Earth, enjoying Paradise as we please. What a beautiful recompense for the workers!" | Waqaloo alhamdu lillahi allathee sadaqana waAAdahu waawrathana al-arda natabawwao mina aljannati haythu nashao faniAAma ajru alAAamileena |
| 039:075 | And you will see the Angels surrounding the throne, glorifying the praise of their Lord. And it will be judged between them with truth, and it will be said: "Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds" | Watara almala-ikata haffeena min hawli alAAarshi yusabbihoona bihamdi rabbihim waqudiya baynahum bialhaqqi waqeela alhamdu lillahi rabbi alAAalameena |
