So remind ˹O Muhammad˺, for you are not, by the favor of your Lord, a soothsayer or a madman.  

فَذَكِّرْ فَمَا أَنْتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍ وَلَا مَجْنُونٍ  

Or do they say ˹of you˺, "A poet for whom we await a misfortune of time?"  

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٌ نَتَرَبَّصُ بِهِ رَيْبَ الْمَنُونِ  

Say, "Wait, for indeed I am, with you, among the waiters."  

قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوا فَإِنِّي مَعَكُمْ مِنَ الْمُتَرَبِّصِينَ  

Or do their minds command them to ˹say˺ this, or are they a transgressing people?  

أَمْ تَأْمُرُهُمْ أَحْلَامُهُمْ بِهَٰذَا ۚ أَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ  

Or do they say, "He has made it up"? Rather, they do not believe.  

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُ ۚ بَلْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ  

Then let them produce a statement like it, if they should be truthful.  

فَلْيَأْتُوا بِحَدِيثٍ مِثْلِهِ إِنْ كَانُوا صَادِقِينَ  

Or were they created by nothing, or were they the creators ˹of themselves˺?  

أَمْ خُلِقُوا مِنْ غَيْرِ شَيْءٍ أَمْ هُمُ الْخَالِقُونَ  

Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain.  

أَمْ خَلَقُوا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ۚ بَلْ لَا يُوقِنُونَ  

Or have they the depositories ˹containing the provision˺ of your Lord? Or are they the controllers ˹of them˺?  

أَمْ عِنْدَهُمْ خَزَائِنُ رَبِّكَ أَمْ هُمُ الْمُصَيْطِرُونَ  

Or have they a stairway ˹into the heaven˺ upon which they listen? Then let their listener produce a clear authority.  

أَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌ يَسْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ ۖ فَلْيَأْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُمْ بِسُلْطَانٍ مُبِينٍ  

Or has He daughters while you have sons?  

أَمْ لَهُ الْبَنَاتُ وَلَكُمُ الْبَنُونَ  

Or do you, ˹O Muhammad˺, ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down?  

أَمْ تَسْأَلُهُمْ أَجْرًا فَهُمْ مِنْ مَغْرَمٍ مُثْقَلُونَ  

Or have they ˹knowledge of˺ the unseen, so they write ˹it˺ down?  

أَمْ عِنْدَهُمُ الْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ  

Or do they intend a plan? But those who disbelieve - they are the object of a plan.  

أَمْ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ۖ فَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا هُمُ الْمَكِيدُونَ  

Or have they a deity other than Allah? Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him.  

أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَٰهٌ غَيْرُ اللَّهِ ۚ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ  

And if they were to see a fragment from the sky falling, they would say, "˹It is merely˺ clouds heaped up."  

وَإِنْ يَرَوْا كِسْفًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ سَاقِطًا يَقُولُوا سَحَابٌ مَرْكُومٌ  

So leave them until they meet their Day in which they will be struck insensible -  

فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يُلَاقُوا يَوْمَهُمُ الَّذِي فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ  

The Day their plan will not avail them at all, nor will they be helped.  

يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْئًا وَلَا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ  

And indeed, for those who have wronged is a punishment before that, but most of them do not know.  

وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا عَذَابًا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ  

And be patient, ˹O Muhammad˺, for the decision of your Lord, for indeed, you are in Our eyes. And exalt ˹Allah˺ with praise of your Lord when you arise.  

وَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا ۖ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ  

And in a part of the night exalt Him and after ˹the setting of˺ the stars.  

وَمِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَإِدْبَارَ النُّجُومِ
