1 حم Ha-Mim |
2 وَالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ By the Book that makes things clear,- |
3 إِنَّا جَعَلْنَاهُ قُرْآناً عَرَبِيّاً
لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ We have made it a Qur'an in Arabic, that ye may be able to understand (and learn wisdom). |
4 وَإِنَّهُ فِي أُمِّ الْكِتَابِ لَدَيْنَا
لَعَلِيٌّ حَكِيمٌ And verily, it is in the Mother of the Book, in Our Presence, high (in dignity), full of wisdom. |
5 أَفَنَضْرِبُ عَنكُمُ الذِّكْرَ صَفْحاً
أَن كُنتُمْ قَوْماً مُّسْرِفِينَ Shall We then take away the Message from you and repel (you), for that ye are a people transgressing beyond bounds? |
6 وَكَمْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن نَّبِيٍّ فِي
الْأَوَّلِينَ But how many were the prophets We sent amongst the peoples of old? |
7 وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن نَّبِيٍّ إِلَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُون
And never came there a prophet to them but they mocked him. |
8 فَأَهْلَكْنَا أَشَدَّ مِنْهُم بَطْشاً وَمَضَى مَثَلُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
So We destroyed (them)- stronger in power than these;- and (thus) has passed on the Parable of the peoples of old. |
9 وَلَئِن سَأَلْتَهُم مَّنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ
خَلَقَهُنَّ الْعَزِيزُ الْعَلِيمُ If thou wert to question them, 'Who created the heavens and the earth?' They would be sure to reply, 'they were created by (Him), the Exalted in Power, Full of Knowledge';- |
10 الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ
مَهْداً وَجَعَلَ لَكُمْ فِيهَا سُبُلاً لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ (Yea, the same that) has made for you the earth (like a carpet) spread out, and has made for you roads (and channels) therein, in order that ye may find guidance (on the way); |
