38. Sūrat Ṣād
٣٨۔ سُورَةُ ص
˹So mention˺ when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I am going to create a human being from clay.
إِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي خَالِقٌ بَشَرًا مِنْ طِينٍ
So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My ˹created˺ soul, then fall down to him in prostration."
فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِنْ رُوحِي فَقَعُوا لَهُ سَاجِدِينَ
فَسَجَدَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ كُلُّهُمْ أَجْمَعُونَ
Except Iblees; he was arrogant and became among the disbelievers.
إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ اسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ
˹Allah˺ said, "O Iblees, what prevented you from prostrating to that which I created with My hands? Were you arrogant ˹then˺, or were you ˹already˺ among the haughty?"
قَالَ يَا إِبْلِيسُ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِمَا خَلَقْتُ بِيَدَيَّ ۖ أَسْتَكْبَرْتَ أَمْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الْعَالِينَ
He said, "I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay."
قَالَ أَنَا خَيْرٌ مِنْهُ ۖ خَلَقْتَنِي مِنْ نَارٍ وَخَلَقْتَهُ مِنْ طِينٍ
˹Allah˺ said, "Then get out of Paradise, for indeed, you are expelled.
قَالَ فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ
And indeed, upon you is My curse until the Day of Recompense."
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكَ لَعْنَتِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ
He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."
قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنْظِرْنِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ الْمُنْظَرِينَ
إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الْوَقْتِ الْمَعْلُومِ
˹Iblees˺ said, "By your might, I will surely mislead them all
قَالَ فَبِعِزَّتِكَ لَأُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
˹Allah˺ said, "The truth ˹is My oath˺, and the truth I say -
قَالَ فَالْحَقُّ وَالْحَقَّ أَقُولُ
˹That˺ I will surely fill Hell with you and those of them that follow you all together."
لَأَمْلَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنْكَ وَمِمَّنْ تَبِعَكَ مِنْهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
Say, ˹O Muhammad˺, "I do not ask you for the Qur'an any payment, and I am not of the pretentious
قُلْ مَا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُتَكَلِّفِينَ
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِلْعَالَمِينَ
And you will surely know ˹the truth of˺ its information after a time."
وَلَتَعْلَمُنَّ نَبَأَهُ بَعْدَ حِينٍ
