﴿١﴾
Ha, Meem.

وَٱلْكِتَٰبِ ٱلْمُبِينِ
﴿٢﴾
By the Manifest Book!
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَٰهُ فِى لَيْلَةٍۢ مُّبَٰرَكَةٍ ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ
﴿٣﴾
We sent it down on a blessed night, and We have been warning [mankind].
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
﴿٤﴾
Every definitive matter is resolved on it,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
أَمْرًۭا مِّنْ عِندِنَآ ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ
﴿٥﴾
As an ordinance from Us. We have been sending [apostles]
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
رَحْمَةًۭ مِّن رَّبِّكَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ
﴿٦﴾
As a mercy from your Lord—indeed He is the All-hearing, the All-knowing—
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ ۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ
﴿٧﴾
The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and whatever is between them, should you have conviction.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ ۖ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
﴿٨﴾
There is no god except Him: He gives life and brings death, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
بَلْ هُمْ فِى شَكٍّۢ يَلْعَبُونَ
﴿٩﴾
But they play around in doubt.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
فَٱرْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِى ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِدُخَانٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ
﴿١٠﴾
So watch out for the day when the sky brings on a manifest smoke,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
يَغْشَى ٱلنَّاسَ ۖ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ
﴿١١﴾
Enveloping the people. [They will cry out:] `This is a painful punishment.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
رَّبَّنَا ٱكْشِفْ عَنَّا ٱلْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ
﴿١٢﴾
Our Lord! Remove this punishment from us. Indeed we have believed! `
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ وَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ
﴿١٣﴾
What will the admonition avail them, when a manifest apostle had already come to them,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا۟ مُعَلَّمٌۭ مَّجْنُونٌ
﴿١٤﴾
But they turned away from him, and said, `A tutored madman? `
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِنَّا كَاشِفُوا۟ ٱلْعَذَابِ قَلِيلًا ۚ إِنَّكُمْ عَآئِدُونَ
﴿١٥﴾
Indeed We will withdraw the punishment a little; but you will revert [to your earlier ways].
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ ٱلْبَطْشَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰٓ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ
﴿١٦﴾
The day We shall strike with the most terrible striking, We will indeed take vengeance [on them].
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
۞ وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌۭ كَرِيمٌ
﴿١٧﴾
Certainly We tried the people of Pharaoh before them, when a noble apostle came to them,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
أَنْ أَدُّوٓا۟ إِلَىَّ عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌۭ
﴿١٨﴾
[saying,] `Give over the servants of Allah to me; indeed I am a trusted apostle [sent] to you.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَأَن لَّا تَعْلُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّىٓ ءَاتِيكُم بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ
﴿١٩﴾
Do not defy Allah. Indeed I bring you a manifest authority.

وَإِنِّى عُذْتُ بِرَبِّى وَرَبِّكُمْ أَن تَرْجُمُونِ
﴿٢٠﴾
I seek the protection of my Lord and your Lord, lest you should stone me.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَإِن لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوا۟ لِى فَٱعْتَزِلُونِ
﴿٢١﴾
And if you do not believe me, keep out of my way. `
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوْمٌۭ مُّجْرِمُونَ
﴿٢٢﴾
Then he invoked his Lord, [saying,] `These are indeed a guilty lot. `
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
فَأَسْرِ بِعِبَادِى لَيْلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ
﴿٢٣﴾
[Allah told him,] `Set out by night with My servants; for you will be pursued.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَٱتْرُكِ ٱلْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا ۖ إِنَّهُمْ جُندٌۭ مُّغْرَقُونَ
﴿٢٤﴾
Leave behind the sea unmoving; for they will be a drowned host. `
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
كَمْ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍۢ
﴿٢٥﴾
How many gardens and springs did they leave behind!
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَزُرُوعٍۢ وَمَقَامٍۢ كَرِيمٍۢ
﴿٢٦﴾
Fields and splendid places,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَنَعْمَةٍۢ كَانُوا۟ فِيهَا فَٰكِهِينَ
﴿٢٧﴾
And the affluence wherein they rejoiced!
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
كَذَٰلِكَ ۖ وَأَوْرَثْنَٰهَا قَوْمًا ءَاخَرِينَ
﴿٢٨﴾
So it was; and We bequeathed them to another people.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِينَ
﴿٢٩﴾
So neither the sky wept for them, nor the earth; nor were they granted any respite.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَلَقَدْ نَجَّيْنَا بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ مِنَ ٱلْعَذَابِ ٱلْمُهِينِ
﴿٣٠﴾
Certainly We delivered the Children of Israel from the humiliating torment
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
مِن فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِيًۭا مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ
﴿٣١﴾
Of Pharaoh. Indeed, he was a tyrant among the transgressors.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَلَقَدِ ٱخْتَرْنَٰهُمْ عَلَىٰ عِلْمٍ عَلَى ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
﴿٣٢﴾
Certainly We chose them knowingly above all the nations,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلْءَايَٰتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَٰٓؤٌۭا۟ مُّبِينٌ
﴿٣٣﴾
And We gave them some signs in which there was a manifest test.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَيَقُولُونَ
﴿٣٤﴾
These ones say,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِنْ هِىَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا ٱلْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنشَرِينَ
﴿٣٥﴾
`It will be only our first death, and we shall not be resurrected.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
فَأْتُوا۟ بِـَٔابَآئِنَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ
﴿٣٦﴾
Bring our fathers back [to life], if you are truthful. `
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍۢ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ أَهْلَكْنَٰهُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ مُجْرِمِينَ
﴿٣٧﴾
Are they better, or the people of Tubba `, and those who were before them? We destroyed them; indeed, they were guilty.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَٰعِبِينَ
﴿٣٨﴾
We did not create the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them for play.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
مَا خَلَقْنَٰهُمَآ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
﴿٣٩﴾
We did not create them except with consummate wisdom; but most of them do not know.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ مِيقَٰتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
﴿٤٠﴾
Indeed the Day of Judgement is the tryst for them all,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى مَوْلًى عَن مَّوْلًۭى شَيْـًۭٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
﴿٤١﴾
The day when a friend will not avail a friend in any way, nor will they be helped,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
﴿٤٢﴾
Except for him on whom Allah has mercy. Indeed He is the All-mighty, the All-merciful.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِنَّ شَجَرَتَ ٱلزَّقُّومِ
﴿٤٣﴾
Indeed the tree of Zaqqum
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
طَعَامُ ٱلْأَثِيمِ
﴿٤٤﴾
Will be the food of the sinful.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
كَٱلْمُهْلِ يَغْلِى فِى ٱلْبُطُونِ
﴿٤٥﴾
Like molten copper it will boil in their bellies,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
كَغَلْىِ ٱلْحَمِيمِ
﴿٤٦﴾
Seething like boiling water.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
خُذُوهُ فَٱعْتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَآءِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
﴿٤٧﴾
[The keepers of hell will be told,] `Seize him and drag him to the middle of hell,

﴿٤٨﴾
Then pour over his head boiling water as punishment,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
ذُقْ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْكَرِيمُ
﴿٤٩﴾
[and tell them,] “Taste this! Indeed you are the [self-styled] mighty and noble!
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
إِنَّ هَٰذَا مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَمْتَرُونَ
﴿٥٠﴾
This is what you used to doubt! `

﴿٥١﴾
Indeed the Godwary will be in a safe place,

فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍۢ
﴿٥٢﴾
Amid gardens and springs,
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
يَلْبَسُونَ مِن سُندُسٍۢ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٍۢ مُّتَقَٰبِلِينَ
﴿٥٣﴾
Dressed in fine silk and brocade, sitting face to face.
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
كَذَٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجْنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍۢ
﴿٥٤﴾
So shall it be, and We shall wed them to black-eyed houris.

يَدْعُونَ فِيهَا بِكُلِّ فَٰكِهَةٍ ءَامِنِينَ
﴿٥٥﴾
Secure [from any kind of harm,] there they will call for every kind of fruit [they wish].
— Translation — Ali Quli Qarai
لَا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا ٱلْمَوْتَ إِلَّا ٱلْمَوْتَةَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ ۖ وَوَقَىٰهُمْ عَذَابَ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
﴿٥٦﴾
Other than the first death, they will not taste death therein, and He will save them from the punishment of hell

فَضْلًۭا مِّن رَّبِّكَ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ
﴿٥٧﴾
—a grace from your Lord. That is the great success.
