53. Sūrat al-Najm
٥٣۔ سُورَةُ النَّجْم
أَفَرَأَيْتُمُ اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّىٰ
وَمَنَاةَ الثَّالِثَةَ الْأُخْرَىٰ
أَلَكُمُ الذَّكَرُ وَلَهُ الْأُنْثَىٰ
تِلْكَ إِذًا قِسْمَةٌ ضِيزَىٰ
They are not but ˹mere˺ names you have named them - you and your forefathers - for which Allah has sent down no authority. They follow not except assumption and what ˹their˺ souls desire, and there has already come to them from their Lord guidance.
إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا أَسْمَاءٌ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَا أَنْتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمْ مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِنْ سُلْطَانٍ ۚ إِنْ يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهْوَى الْأَنْفُسُ ۖ وَلَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ مِنْ رَبِّهِمُ الْهُدَىٰ
أَمْ لِلْإِنْسَانِ مَا تَمَنَّىٰ
Rather, to Allah belongs the Hereafter and the first ˹life˺.
فَلِلَّهِ الْآخِرَةُ وَالْأُولَىٰ
