And mention in the Book, Moses. Indeed, he was chosen, and he was a messenger and a prophet.  

وَاذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتَابِ مُوسَىٰ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ مُخْلَصًا وَكَانَ رَسُولًا نَبِيًّا  

And We called him from the side of the mount at ˹his˺ right and brought him near, confiding ˹to him˺.  

وَنَادَيْنَاهُ مِنْ جَانِبِ الطُّورِ الْأَيْمَنِ وَقَرَّبْنَاهُ نَجِيًّا  

And We gave him out of Our mercy his brother Aaron as a prophet.  

وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُ مِنْ رَحْمَتِنَا أَخَاهُ هَارُونَ نَبِيًّا  

And mention in the Book, Ishmael. Indeed, he was true to his promise, and he was a messenger and a prophet.  

وَاذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتَابِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ صَادِقَ الْوَعْدِ وَكَانَ رَسُولًا نَبِيًّا  

And he used to enjoin on his people prayer and zakah and was to his Lord pleasing.  

وَكَانَ يَأْمُرُ أَهْلَهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ وَالزَّكَاةِ وَكَانَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِ مَرْضِيًّا  

And mention in the Book, Idrees. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet.  

وَاذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتَابِ إِدْرِيسَ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ صِدِّيقًا نَبِيًّا  

And We raised him to a high station.  

وَرَفَعْنَاهُ مَكَانًا عَلِيًّا  

Those were the ones upon whom Allah bestowed favor from among the prophets of the descendants of Adam and of those We carried ˹in the ship˺ with Noah, and of the descendants of Abraham and Israel, and of those whom We guided and chose. When the verses of the Most Merciful were recited to them, they fell in prostration and weeping.  

أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّينَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ آدَمَ وَمِمَّنْ حَمَلْنَا مَعَ نُوحٍ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ وَمِمَّنْ هَدَيْنَا وَاجْتَبَيْنَا ۚ إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتُ الرَّحْمَٰنِ خَرُّوا سُجَّدًا وَبُكِيًّا ۩  

But there came after them successors who neglected prayer and pursued desires; so they are going to meet evil -  

فَخَلَفَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ خَلْفٌ أَضَاعُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَاتَّبَعُوا الشَّهَوَاتِ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَلْقَوْنَ غَيًّا  

Except those who repent, believe and do righteousness; for those will enter Paradise and will not be wronged at all.  

إِلَّا مَنْ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَأُولَٰئِكَ يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ وَلَا يُظْلَمُونَ شَيْئًا  

˹Therein are˺ gardens of perpetual residence which the Most Merciful has promised His servants in the unseen. Indeed, His promise has ever been coming.  

جَنَّاتِ عَدْنٍ الَّتِي وَعَدَ الرَّحْمَٰنُ عِبَادَهُ بِالْغَيْبِ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ وَعْدُهُ مَأْتِيًّا  

They will not hear therein any ill speech - only ˹greetings of˺ peace - and they will have their provision therein, morning and afternoon.  

لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا إِلَّا سَلَامًا ۖ وَلَهُمْ رِزْقُهُمْ فِيهَا بُكْرَةً وَعَشِيًّا  

That is Paradise, which We give as inheritance to those of Our servants who were fearing of Allah.  

تِلْكَ الْجَنَّةُ الَّتِي نُورِثُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا مَنْ كَانَ تَقِيًّا  

˹Gabriel said˺, "And we ˹angels˺ descend not except by the order of your Lord. To Him belongs that before us and that behind us and what is in between. And never is your Lord forgetful -  

وَمَا نَتَنَزَّلُ إِلَّا بِأَمْرِ رَبِّكَ ۖ لَهُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا وَمَا خَلْفَنَا وَمَا بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ ۚ وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ نَسِيًّا  

Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them - so worship Him and have patience for His worship. Do you know of any similarity to Him?"  

رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فَاعْبُدْهُ وَاصْطَبِرْ لِعِبَادَتِهِ ۚ هَلْ تَعْلَمُ لَهُ سَمِيًّا  

And the disbeliever says, "When I have died, am I going to be brought forth alive?"  

وَيَقُولُ الْإِنْسَانُ أَإِذَا مَا مِتُّ لَسَوْفَ أُخْرَجُ حَيًّا  

Does man not remember that We created him before, while he was nothing?  

أَوَلَا يَذْكُرُ الْإِنْسَانُ أَنَّا خَلَقْنَاهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَلَمْ يَكُ شَيْئًا  

So by your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils; then We will bring them to be present around Hell upon their knees.  

فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَحْشُرَنَّهُمْ وَالشَّيَاطِينَ ثُمَّ لَنُحْضِرَنَّهُمْ حَوْلَ جَهَنَّمَ جِثِيًّا  

Then We will surely extract from every sect those of them who were worst against the Most Merciful in insolence.  

ثُمَّ لَنَنْزِعَنَّ مِنْ كُلِّ شِيعَةٍ أَيُّهُمْ أَشَدُّ عَلَى الرَّحْمَٰنِ عِتِيًّا  

Then, surely it is We who are most knowing of those most worthy of burning therein.  

ثُمَّ لَنَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِالَّذِينَ هُمْ أَوْلَىٰ بِهَا صِلِيًّا  

And there is none of you except he will come to it. This is upon your Lord an inevitability decreed.  

وَإِنْ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا وَارِدُهَا ۚ كَانَ عَلَىٰ رَبِّكَ حَتْمًا مَقْضِيًّا  

Then We will save those who feared Allah and leave the wrongdoers within it, on their knees.  

ثُمَّ نُنَجِّي الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا وَنَذَرُ الظَّالِمِينَ فِيهَا جِثِيًّا  

And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Which of ˹our˺ two parties is best in position and best in association?"  

وَإِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتُنَا بَيِّنَاتٍ قَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَيُّ الْفَرِيقَيْنِ خَيْرٌ مَقَامًا وَأَحْسَنُ نَدِيًّا  

And how many a generation have We destroyed before them who were better in possessions and ˹outward˺ appearance?  

وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُمْ مِنْ قَرْنٍ هُمْ أَحْسَنُ أَثَاثًا وَرِئْيًا  

Say, "Whoever is in error - let the Most Merciful extend for him an extension ˹in wealth and time˺ until, when they see that which they were promised - either punishment ˹in this world˺ or the Hour ˹of resurrection˺ - they will come to know who is worst in position and weaker in soldiers."  

قُلْ مَنْ كَانَ فِي الضَّلَالَةِ فَلْيَمْدُدْ لَهُ الرَّحْمَٰنُ مَدًّا ۚ حَتَّىٰ إِذَا رَأَوْا مَا يُوعَدُونَ إِمَّا الْعَذَابَ وَإِمَّا السَّاعَةَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ شَرٌّ مَكَانًا وَأَضْعَفُ جُنْدًا  

And Allah increases those who were guided, in guidance, and the enduring good deeds are better to your Lord for reward and better for recourse.  

وَيَزِيدُ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ اهْتَدَوْا هُدًى ۗ وَالْبَاقِيَاتُ الصَّالِحَاتُ خَيْرٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ ثَوَابًا وَخَيْرٌ مَرَدًّا  

Then, have you seen he who disbelieved in Our verses and said, "I will surely be given wealth and children ˹in the next life˺?"  

أَفَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي كَفَرَ بِآيَاتِنَا وَقَالَ لَأُوتَيَنَّ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا  

Has he looked into the unseen, or has he taken from the Most Merciful a promise?  

أَطَّلَعَ الْغَيْبَ أَمِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَٰنِ عَهْدًا  

No! We will record what he says and extend for him from the punishment extensively.  

كَلَّا ۚ سَنَكْتُبُ مَا يَقُولُ وَنَمُدُّ لَهُ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ مَدًّا  

And We will inherit him ˹in˺ what he mentions, and he will come to Us alone.  

وَنَرِثُهُ مَا يَقُولُ وَيَأْتِينَا فَرْدًا  

And they have taken besides Allah ˹false˺ deities that they would be for them ˹a source of˺ honor.  

وَاتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ آلِهَةً لِيَكُونُوا لَهُمْ عِزًّا  

No! Those "gods" will deny their worship of them and will be against them opponents ˹on the Day of Judgement˺.  

كَلَّا ۚ سَيَكْفُرُونَ بِعِبَادَتِهِمْ وَيَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضِدًّا  

Do you not see that We have sent the devils upon the disbelievers, inciting them to ˹evil˺ with ˹constant˺ incitement?  

أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا الشَّيَاطِينَ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ تَؤُزُّهُمْ أَزًّا  

So be not impatient over them. We only count out to them a ˹limited˺ number.  

فَلَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ إِنَّمَا نَعُدُّ لَهُمْ عَدًّا  

On the Day We will gather the righteous to the Most Merciful as a delegation  

يَوْمَ نَحْشُرُ الْمُتَّقِينَ إِلَى الرَّحْمَٰنِ وَفْدًا  

And will drive the criminals to Hell in thirst  

وَنَسُوقُ الْمُجْرِمِينَ إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ وِرْدًا  

None will have ˹power of˺ intercession except he who had taken from the Most Merciful a covenant.  

لَا يَمْلِكُونَ الشَّفَاعَةَ إِلَّا مَنِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَٰنِ عَهْدًا  

And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken ˹for Himself˺ a son."  

وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وَلَدًا  

You have done an atrocious thing.  

لَقَدْ جِئْتُمْ شَيْئًا إِدًّا  

The heavens almost rupture therefrom and the earth splits open and the mountains collapse in devastation  

تَكَادُ السَّمَاوَاتُ يَتَفَطَّرْنَ مِنْهُ وَتَنْشَقُّ الْأَرْضُ وَتَخِرُّ الْجِبَالُ هَدًّا  

That they attribute to the Most Merciful a son.  

أَنْ دَعَوْا لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ وَلَدًا  

And it is not appropriate for the Most Merciful that He should take a son.  

وَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ وَلَدًا  

There is no one in the heavens and earth but that he comes to the Most Merciful as a servant.  

إِنْ كُلُّ مَنْ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ إِلَّا آتِي الرَّحْمَٰنِ عَبْدًا  

He has enumerated them and counted them a ˹full˺ counting.  

لَقَدْ أَحْصَاهُمْ وَعَدَّهُمْ عَدًّا  

And all of them are coming to Him on the Day of Resurrection alone.  

وَكُلُّهُمْ آتِيهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَرْدًا  

Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds - the Most Merciful will appoint for them affection.  

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ سَيَجْعَلُ لَهُمُ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وُدًّا  

So, ˹O Muhammad˺, We have only made Qur'an easy in the Arabic language that you may give good tidings thereby to the righteous and warn thereby a hostile people.  

فَإِنَّمَا يَسَّرْنَاهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لِتُبَشِّرَ بِهِ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَتُنْذِرَ بِهِ قَوْمًا لُدًّا  

And how many have We destroyed before them of generations? Do you perceive of them anyone or hear from them a sound?  

وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُمْ مِنْ قَرْنٍ هَلْ تُحِسُّ مِنْهُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ أَوْ تَسْمَعُ لَهُمْ رِكْزًا
