saying, "Serve God, and fear Him, and obey you me,
71
Arberry
3
أَنِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱتَّقُوهُ وَأَطِيعُونِ
and He will forgive you your sins, and defer you to a stated term; God's term, when it comes, cannot be deferred, did you but know."'
71
Arberry
4
يَغْفِرْ لَكُم مِّن ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرْكُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى إِنَّ أَجَلَ ٱللَّهِ إِذَا جَآءَ لَا يُؤَخَّرُ لَوْ كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
He said; 'My Lord, I have called my people by night and by day,
71
Arberry
5
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِى لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا
but my calling has only increased them in flight.
71
Arberry
6
فَلَمْ يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَآءِىٓ إِلَّا فِرَارًا
And whenever I called them, that Thou mightest forgive them, they put their fingers in their ears, and wrapped them in their garments, and persisted, and waxed very proud.
71
Arberry
7
وَإِنِّى كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوٓا۟ أَصَٰبِعَهُمْ فِىٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَٱسْتَغْشَوْا۟ ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَصَرُّوا۟ وَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ ٱسْتِكْبَارًا
Then indeed I called them openly;
71
Arberry
8
ثُمَّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُهُمْ جِهَارًا
then indeed I spoke publicly unto them, and I spoke unto them secretly,
71
Arberry
9
ثُمَّ إِنِّىٓ أَعْلَنتُ لَهُمْ وَأَسْرَرْتُ لَهُمْ إِسْرَارًا
and I said, "Ask you forgiveness of your Lord; surely He is ever All-forgiving,
71
Arberry
10
فَقُلْتُ ٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ غَفَّارًا
and He will loose heaven upon you in torrents
71
Arberry
11
يُرْسِلِ ٱلسَّمَآءَ عَلَيْكُم مِّدْرَارًا
and will succour you with wealth and sons, and will appoint for you gardens, and will appoint for you rivers.
71
Arberry
12
وَيُمْدِدْكُم بِأَمْوَٰلٍ وَبَنِينَ وَيَجْعَل لَّكُمْ جَنَّٰتٍ وَيَجْعَل لَّكُمْ أَنْهَٰرًا
What ails you, that you look not for majesty in God,
71
Arberry
13
مَّا لَكُمْ لَا تَرْجُونَ لِلَّهِ وَقَارًا
seeing He created you by stages?
71
Arberry
14
وَقَدْ خَلَقَكُمْ أَطْوَارًا
Have you not regarded how God created seven heavens one upon another,
71
Arberry
15
أَلَمْ تَرَوْا۟ كَيْفَ خَلَقَ ٱللَّهُ سَبْعَ سَمَٰوَٰتٍ طِبَاقًا
and set the moon therein for a light and the sun for a lamp?
71
Arberry
16
وَجَعَلَ ٱلْقَمَرَ فِيهِنَّ نُورًا وَجَعَلَ ٱلشَّمْسَ سِرَاجًا
And God caused you to grow out of the earth,
71
Arberry
17
وَٱللَّهُ أَنۢبَتَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ نَبَاتًا
then He shall return you into it, and bring you forth.
71
Arberry
18
ثُمَّ يُعِيدُكُمْ فِيهَا وَيُخْرِجُكُمْ إِخْرَاجًا
And God has laid the earth for you as a carpet,
71
Arberry
19
وَٱللَّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ بِسَاطًا

قَالَ نُوحٌ رَّبِّ إِنَّهُمْ عَصَوْنِى وَٱتَّبَعُوا۟ مَن لَّمْ يَزِدْهُ مَالُهُۥ وَوَلَدُهُۥٓ إِلَّا خَسَارًا
and have devised a mighty device
71
Arberry
22
وَمَكَرُوا۟ مَكْرًا كُبَّارًا
and have said, "Do not leave your gods, and do not leave Wadd, nor Suwa', Yaghuth, Ya'uq, neither Nasr."
71
Arberry
23
وَقَالُوا۟ لَا تَذَرُنَّ ءَالِهَتَكُمْ وَلَا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَلَا سُوَاعًا وَلَا يَغُوثَ وَيَعُوقَ وَنَسْرًا
And they have led many astray. Increase Thou not the evildoers save in error!'
71
Arberry
24
وَقَدْ أَضَلُّوا۟ كَثِيرًا وَلَا تَزِدِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ إِلَّا ضَلَٰلًا
And because of their transgressions they were drowned, and admitted into a Fire, for they found not, apart from God, any to help them.
71
Arberry
25
مِّمَّا خَطِيٓـَٰٔتِهِمْ أُغْرِقُوا۟ فَأُدْخِلُوا۟ نَارًا فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا۟ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَنصَارًا
And Noah said, 'My Lord, leave not upon the earth of the unbelievers even one.
71

Surely, if Thou leavest them, they will lead Thy servants astray, and will beget none but unbelieving libertines.
71

إِنَّكَ إِن تَذَرْهُمْ يُضِلُّوا۟ عِبَادَكَ وَلَا يَلِدُوٓا۟ إِلَّا فَاجِرًا كَفَّارًا
My Lord, forgive me and my parents and whosoever enters my house as a believer, and the believers, men and women alike; and do Thou not increase the evildoers save in ruin!'
71
Arberry
28
رَّبِّ ٱغْفِرْ لِى وَلِوَٰلِدَىَّ وَلِمَن دَخَلَ بَيْتِىَ مُؤْمِنًا وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ وَلَا تَزِدِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ إِلَّا تَبَارًۢا
Say: 'It has been revealed to me that a company of the jinn gave ear, then they said, "We have indeed heard a Koran wonderful,
72
Arberry
1
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ قُلْ أُوحِىَ إِلَىَّ أَنَّهُ ٱسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِّنَ ٱلْجِنِّ فَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْءَانًا عَجَبًا
guiding to rectitude. We believe in it, and we will not associate with our Lord anyone.
72
Arberry
2
يَهْدِىٓ إِلَى ٱلرُّشْدِ فَـَٔامَنَّا بِهِۦ وَلَن نُّشْرِكَ بِرَبِّنَآ أَحَدًا
He -- exalted be our Lord's majesty! has not taken to Himself either consort or a son.
72
Arberry
3
وَأَنَّهُۥ تَعَٰلَىٰ جَدُّ رَبِّنَا مَا ٱتَّخَذَ صَٰحِبَةً وَلَا وَلَدًا
The fool among us spoke against God outrage,
72
Arberry
4
وَأَنَّهُۥ كَانَ يَقُولُ سَفِيهُنَا عَلَى ٱللَّهِ شَطَطًا
and we had thought that men and jinn would never speak against God a lie.
72
Arberry
5
وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّآ أَن لَّن تَقُولَ ٱلْإِنسُ وَٱلْجِنُّ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًا
But there were certain men of mankind who would take refuge with certain men of the jinn, and they increased them in vileness,
72
Arberry
6
وَأَنَّهُۥ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِّنَ ٱلْإِنسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ مِّنَ ٱلْجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمْ رَهَقًا
and they thought, even as you also thought, that God would never raise up anyone.
72
Arberry
7
وَأَنَّهُمْ ظَنُّوا۟ كَمَا ظَنَنتُمْ أَن لَّن يَبْعَثَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدًا
And we stretched towards heaven, but we found it filled with terrible guards and meteors.
72
Arberry
8
وَأَنَّا لَمَسْنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ فَوَجَدْنَٰهَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِيدًا وَشُهُبًا
We would sit there on seats to hear; but any listening now finds a meteor in wait for him.
72
Arberry
9
وَأَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْهَا مَقَٰعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ فَمَن يَسْتَمِعِ ٱلْءَانَ يَجِدْ لَهُۥ شِهَابًا رَّصَدًا
And so we know not whether evil is intended for those in the earth, or whether their Lord intends for them rectitude.
72
Arberry
10
وَأَنَّا لَا نَدْرِىٓ أَشَرٌّ أُرِيدَ بِمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَمْ أَرَادَ بِهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ رَشَدًا
And some of us are the righteous, and some of us are otherwise; we are sects differing.
72
Arberry
11
وَأَنَّا مِنَّا ٱلصَّٰلِحُونَ وَمِنَّا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ كُنَّا طَرَآئِقَ قِدَدًا
Indeed, we thought that we should never be able to frustrate God in the earth, neither be able to frustrate Him by flight.
72
Arberry
12
وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّآ أَن لَّن نُّعْجِزَ ٱللَّهَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَن نُّعْجِزَهُۥ هَرَبًا
When we heard the guidance, we believed in it; and whosoever believes in his Lord, he shall fear neither paltriness nor vileness.
72
Arberry
13
وَأَنَّا لَمَّا سَمِعْنَا ٱلْهُدَىٰٓ ءَامَنَّا بِهِۦ فَمَن يُؤْمِنۢ بِرَبِّهِۦ فَلَا يَخَافُ بَخْسًا وَلَا رَهَقًا
And some of us have surrendered, and some of us have deviated. Those who have surrendered sought rectitude;
72
Arberry
14
وَأَنَّا مِنَّا ٱلْمُسْلِمُونَ وَمِنَّا ٱلْقَٰسِطُونَ فَمَنْ أَسْلَمَ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ تَحَرَّوْا۟ رَشَدًا
but as for those who have deviated, they have become firewood for Gehenna!"'
72
Arberry
15
وَأَمَّا ٱلْقَٰسِطُونَ فَكَانُوا۟ لِجَهَنَّمَ حَطَبًا
Would they but go straight on the way, We would give them to drink of water copious,
72
Arberry
16
وَأَلَّوِ ٱسْتَقَٰمُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقَةِ لَأَسْقَيْنَٰهُم مَّآءً غَدَقًا
that We might try them therein. And whosoever turns away from the Remembrance of his Lord, He will thrust him into chastisement rigorous.
72
Arberry
17
لِّنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ وَمَن يُعْرِضْ عَن ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِۦ يَسْلُكْهُ عَذَابًا صَعَدًا
The places of worship belong to God; so call not, along with God, upon anyone.
72
Arberry
18
وَأَنَّ ٱلْمَسَٰجِدَ لِلَّهِ فَلَا تَدْعُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ أَحَدًا
When the servant of God stood calling on Him, they were wellnigh upon him in swarms.
72
Arberry
19
وَأَنَّهُۥ لَمَّا قَامَ عَبْدُ ٱللَّهِ يَدْعُوهُ كَادُوا۟ يَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهِ لِبَدًا
Say: 'I call only upon my Lord, and I do not associate with Him anyone.
72
Arberry
20
قُلْ إِنَّمَآ أَدْعُوا۟ رَبِّى وَلَآ أُشْرِكُ بِهِۦٓ أَحَدًا
Say: 'Surely I possess no power over you, either for hurt or for rectitude.'
72
Arberry
21
قُلْ إِنِّى لَآ أَمْلِكُ لَكُمْ ضَرًّا وَلَا رَشَدًا
Say: 'From God shall protect me not anyone, and I shall find, apart from Him, no refuge,
72
Arberry
22
قُلْ إِنِّى لَن يُجِيرَنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهِ أَحَدٌ وَلَنْ أَجِدَ مِن دُونِهِۦ مُلْتَحَدًا
excepting a Deliverance from God and His Messages. And whoso rebels against God and His messenger, for him there awaits the Fire of Gehenna; therein they shall dwell forever.'
72
Arberry
23
إِلَّا بَلَٰغًا مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَرِسَٰلَٰتِهِۦ وَمَن يَعْصِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ فَإِنَّ لَهُۥ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَآ أَبَدًا
Until, when they see that which they are promised, then they will know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in numbers.
72
Arberry
24
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا رَأَوْا۟ مَا يُوعَدُونَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ أَضْعَفُ نَاصِرًا وَأَقَلُّ عَدَدًا
Say: 'I do not know whether that which you are promised is nigh, or whether my Lord will appoint for it a space;
72
Arberry
25
قُلْ إِنْ أَدْرِىٓ أَقَرِيبٌ مَّا تُوعَدُونَ أَمْ يَجْعَلُ لَهُۥ رَبِّىٓ أَمَدًا
Knower He of the Unseen, and He discloses not His Unseen to anyone,
72
Arberry
26
عَٰلِمُ ٱلْغَيْبِ فَلَا يُظْهِرُ عَلَىٰ غَيْبِهِۦٓ أَحَدًا
save only to such a Messenger as He is well-pleased with; then He despatches before him and behind him watchers,
72
Arberry
27
إِلَّا مَنِ ٱرْتَضَىٰ مِن رَّسُولٍ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَسْلُكُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِۦ رَصَدًا
that He may know they have delivered the Messages of their Lord; and He encompasses all that is with them, and He has numbered everything in numbers.'
72
Arberry
28
لِّيَعْلَمَ أَن قَدْ أَبْلَغُوا۟ رِسَٰلَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَأَحَاطَ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ وَأَحْصَىٰ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ عَدَدًۢا
O thou enwrapped in thy robes,
73
Arberry
1
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْمُزَّمِّلُ
keep vigil the night, except a little
73
Arberry
2
قُمِ ٱلَّيْلَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
(a half of it, or diminish a little,
73
Arberry
3
نِّصْفَهُۥٓ أَوِ ٱنقُصْ مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا
or add a little), and chant the Koran very distinctly;
73
Arberry
4
أَوْ زِدْ عَلَيْهِ وَرَتِّلِ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ تَرْتِيلًا
Behold, We shall cast upon thee a weighty word;
73
Arberry
5
إِنَّا سَنُلْقِى عَلَيْكَ قَوْلًا ثَقِيلًا
surely the first part of the night is heavier in tread, more upright in speech,
73
Arberry
6
إِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ ٱلَّيْلِ هِىَ أَشَدُّ وَطْـًٔا وَأَقْوَمُ قِيلًا
surely in the day thou hast long business.
73
Arberry
7
إِنَّ لَكَ فِى ٱلنَّهَارِ سَبْحًا طَوِيلًا
And remember the Name of thy Lord, and devote thyself unto Him very devoutly.
73
Arberry
8
وَٱذْكُرِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلْ إِلَيْهِ تَبْتِيلًا
Lord of the East and the West; there is no god but He; so take Him for a Guardian.
73
Arberry
9
رَّبُّ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَٱلْمَغْرِبِ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ فَٱتَّخِذْهُ وَكِيلًا
And bear thou patiently what they say, and forsake them graciously.
73
Arberry
10
وَٱصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَٱهْجُرْهُمْ هَجْرًا جَمِيلًا
Leave Me to those who cry lies, those prosperous ones, and respite them a little,
73
Arberry
11
وَذَرْنِى وَٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ أُو۟لِى ٱلنَّعْمَةِ وَمَهِّلْهُمْ قَلِيلًا
for with Us there are fetters, and a furnace,
73
Arberry
12
إِنَّ لَدَيْنَآ أَنكَالًا وَجَحِيمًا
and food that chokes, and a painful chastisement,
73
Arberry
13
وَطَعَامًا ذَا غُصَّةٍ وَعَذَابًا أَلِيمًا
upon the day when the earth and the mountains shall quake and the mountains become a slipping heap of sand.
73
Arberry
14
يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ وَكَانَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَثِيبًا مَّهِيلًا
Surely We have sent unto you a Messenger as a witness over you, even as We sent to Pharaoh a Messenger,
73
Arberry
15
إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولًا شَٰهِدًا عَلَيْكُمْ كَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ رَسُولًا
but Pharaoh rebelled against the Messenger, so We seized him remorselessly.
73
Arberry
16
فَعَصَىٰ فِرْعَوْنُ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَأَخَذْنَٰهُ أَخْذًا وَبِيلًا
If therefore you disbelieve, how will you guard yourselves against a day that shall make the children grey-headed?
73
Arberry
17
فَكَيْفَ تَتَّقُونَ إِن كَفَرْتُمْ يَوْمًا يَجْعَلُ ٱلْوِلْدَٰنَ شِيبًا
Whereby heaven shall be split, and its promise shall be performed.
73
Arberry
18
ٱلسَّمَآءُ مُنفَطِرٌۢ بِهِۦ كَانَ وَعْدُهُۥ مَفْعُولًا
Surely this is a Reminder; so let him who will take unto his Lord a way.
73
Arberry
19
إِنَّ هَٰذِهِۦ تَذْكِرَةٌ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِيلًا
Thy Lord knows that thou keepest vigil nearly two-thirds of the night, or a half of it, or a third of it, and a party of those with thee; and God determines the night and the day. He knows that you will not number it, and He has turned towards you. Therefore recite of the Koran so much as is feasible. He knows that some of you are sick, and others journeying in the land, seeking the bounty of God, and others fighting in the way of God. So recite of it so much as is feasible. And perform the prayer, and pay the alms, and lend to God a good loan. Whatever good you shall forward to your souls' account, you shall find it with God as better, and mightier a wage. And ask God's forgiveness; God is All-forgiving, All-compassionate.
73
Arberry
20
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ تَقُومُ أَدْنَىٰ مِن ثُلُثَىِ ٱلَّيْلِ وَنِصْفَهُۥ وَثُلُثَهُۥ وَطَآئِفَةٌ مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَكَ وَٱللَّهُ يُقَدِّرُ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ عَلِمَ أَن لَّن تُحْصُوهُ فَتَابَ عَلَيْكُمْ فَٱقْرَءُوا۟ مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ ٱلْقُرْءَانِ عَلِمَ أَن سَيَكُونُ مِنكُم مَّرْضَىٰ وَءَاخَرُونَ يَضْرِبُونَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ يَبْتَغُونَ مِن فَضْلِ ٱللَّهِ وَءَاخَرُونَ يُقَٰتِلُونَ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ فَٱقْرَءُوا۟ مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنْهُ وَأَقِيمُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتُوا۟ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَأَقْرِضُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوا۟ لِأَنفُسِكُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ تَجِدُوهُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ هُوَ خَيْرًا وَأَعْظَمَ أَجْرًا وَٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌۢ
O thou shrouded in thy mantle,
74
Arberry
1
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْمُدَّثِّرُ
arise, and warn!
74
Arberry
2
قُمْ فَأَنذِرْ
Thy Lord magnify
74
Arberry
3
وَرَبَّكَ فَكَبِّرْ
thy robes purify
74
Arberry
4
وَثِيَابَكَ فَطَهِّرْ
and defilement flee!
74
Arberry
5
وَٱلرُّجْزَ فَٱهْجُرْ
Give not, thinking to gain greater
74
Arberry
6
وَلَا تَمْنُن تَسْتَكْثِرُ
and be patient unto thy Lord.
74
Arberry
7
وَلِرَبِّكَ فَٱصْبِرْ
For when the Trump is sounded
74
Arberry
8
فَإِذَا نُقِرَ فِى ٱلنَّاقُورِ
that day will be a harsh day,
74
Arberry
9
فَذَٰلِكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَوْمٌ عَسِيرٌ
for the unbelievers not easy.
74
Arberry
10
عَلَى ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ غَيْرُ يَسِيرٍ
Leave Me with him whom I created alone,
74
Arberry
11
ذَرْنِى وَمَنْ خَلَقْتُ وَحِيدًا
and appointed for him ample wealth
74
Arberry
12
وَجَعَلْتُ لَهُۥ مَالًا مَّمْدُودًا
and sons standing before him,
74
Arberry
13
وَبَنِينَ شُهُودًا
and made all things smooth for him;
74
Arberry
14
وَمَهَّدتُّ لَهُۥ تَمْهِيدًا
then he is eager that I should do more.
74
Arberry
15
ثُمَّ يَطْمَعُ أَنْ أَزِيدَ
Nay! He is forward unto Our signs;
74
Arberry
16
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لِءَايَٰتِنَا عَنِيدًا
and I shall constrain him to a hard ascent.
74
Arberry
17
سَأُرْهِقُهُۥ صَعُودًا
Lo! He reflected, and determined --
74
Arberry
18
إِنَّهُۥ فَكَّرَ وَقَدَّرَ
death seize him, how he determined!
74
Arberry
