بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمٰنِ الرَّحيمِ

In the name of The God, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

Al-Ahqaf 46:1

حم

Ha, Mim.

Al-Ahqaf 46:2

تَنزيلُ الكِتٰبِ مِنَ اللَّهِ العَزيزِ الحَكيمِ

The sending down of the Book is from The God, the Almighty, the Wise.

Al-Ahqaf 46:3

ما خَلَقنَا السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضَ وَما بَينَهُما إِلّا بِالحَقِّ وَأَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ۚ وَالَّذينَ كَفَروا عَمّا أُنذِروا مُعرِضونَ

We created the heavens and the earth and what is between them only in truth and for an appointed term. Those who disbelieve turn away from what they have been warned of.

Al-Ahqaf 46:4

قُل أَرَءَيتُم ما تَدعونَ مِن دونِ اللَّهِ أَرونى ماذا خَلَقوا مِنَ الأَرضِ أَم لَهُم شِركٌ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ ۖ ائتونى بِكِتٰبٍ مِن قَبلِ هٰذا أَو أَثٰرَةٍ مِن عِلمٍ إِن كُنتُم صٰدِقينَ

Say: Have you considered what you call upon besides The God? Show me what they have created of the earth, or do they have a share in the heavens? Bring me a book before this, or a trace of knowledge, if you are truthful.

Al-Ahqaf 46:5

وَمَن أَضَلُّ مِمَّن يَدعوا مِن دونِ اللَّهِ مَن لا يَستَجيبُ لَهُ إِلىٰ يَومِ القِيٰمَةِ وَهُم عَن دُعائِهِم غٰفِلونَ

Who is further astray than one who calls upon, besides The God, those who will not answer him until the Day of Resurrection and who are unaware of their calling?

Al-Ahqaf 46:6

وَإِذا حُشِرَ النّاسُ كانوا لَهُم أَعداءً وَكانوا بِعِبادَتِهِم كٰفِرينَ

When people are gathered, they will be enemies to them and will deny their worship.

Al-Ahqaf 46:7

وَإِذا تُتلىٰ عَلَيهِم ءايٰتُنا بَيِّنٰتٍ قالَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا لِلحَقِّ لَمّا جاءَهُم هٰذا سِحرٌ مُبينٌ

When Our clear signs are recited to them, those who disbelieve say of the truth when it comes to them: This is clear magic.

Al-Ahqaf 46:8

أَم يَقولونَ افتَرىٰهُ ۖ قُل إِنِ افتَرَيتُهُ فَلا تَملِكونَ لى مِنَ اللَّهِ شَيـًٔا ۖ هُوَ أَعلَمُ بِما تُفيضونَ فيهِ ۖ كَفىٰ بِهِ شَهيدًا بَينى وَبَينَكُم ۖ وَهُوَ الغَفورُ الرَّحيمُ

Or do they say: He fabricated it? Say: If I fabricated it, you possess nothing for me against The God. He knows best what you plunge into. He is sufficient as a witness between me and you, and He is the Forgiving, the Especially Merciful.

Al-Ahqaf 46:9

قُل ما كُنتُ بِدعًا مِنَ الرُّسُلِ وَما أَدرى ما يُفعَلُ بى وَلا بِكُم ۖ إِن أَتَّبِعُ إِلّا ما يوحىٰ إِلَىَّ وَما أَنا۠ إِلّا نَذيرٌ مُبينٌ

Say: I am no novelty among the messengers, and I do not know what will be done with me or with you. I follow only what is revealed to me, and I am only a clarifying warner.

Al-Ahqaf 46:10

قُل أَرَءَيتُم إِن كانَ مِن عِندِ اللَّهِ وَكَفَرتُم بِهِ وَشَهِدَ شاهِدٌ مِن بَنى إِسرٰءيلَ عَلىٰ مِثلِهِ فَـٔامَنَ وَاستَكبَرتُم ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يَهدِى القَومَ الظّٰلِمينَ

Say: Have you considered if it is from The God and you disbelieve in it, while a witness from the Children of Israel testifies to its like and believes, but you are arrogant? The God does not guide the wrongdoing people.

Al-Ahqaf 46:11

وَقالَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا لِلَّذينَ ءامَنوا لَو كانَ خَيرًا ما سَبَقونا إِلَيهِ ۚ وَإِذ لَم يَهتَدوا بِهِ فَسَيَقولونَ هٰذا إِفكٌ قَديمٌ

Those who disbelieve said of those who believe: Had it been good, they would not have preceded us to it. Since they have not been guided by it, they will say: This is an old falsehood.

Al-Ahqaf 46:12

وَمِن قَبلِهِ كِتٰبُ موسىٰ إِمامًا وَرَحمَةً ۚ وَهٰذا كِتٰبٌ مُصَدِّقٌ لِسانًا عَرَبِيًّا لِيُنذِرَ الَّذينَ ظَلَموا وَبُشرىٰ لِلمُحسِنينَ

Before it was the Book of Moses, a guide and a mercy. This is a confirming Book in the Arabic language, to warn those who have done wrong and as good news for those who do good.

Al-Ahqaf 46:13

إِنَّ الَّذينَ قالوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ استَقٰموا فَلا خَوفٌ عَلَيهِم وَلا هُم يَحزَنونَ

Those who say: Our Lord is The God, then remain upright, will have no fear upon them, nor will they grieve.

Al-Ahqaf 46:14

أُولٰئِكَ أَصحٰبُ الجَنَّةِ خٰلِدينَ فيها جَزاءً بِما كانوا يَعمَلونَ

They are the people of the Garden, remaining in it as a reward for what they used to do.

Al-Ahqaf 46:15

وَوَصَّينَا الإِنسٰنَ بِوٰلِدَيهِ إِحسٰنًا ۖ حَمَلَتهُ أُمُّهُ كُرهًا وَوَضَعَتهُ كُرهًا ۖ وَحَملُهُ وَفِصٰلُهُ ثَلٰثونَ شَهرًا ۚ حَتّىٰ إِذا بَلَغَ أَشُدَّهُ وَبَلَغَ أَربَعينَ سَنَةً قالَ رَبِّ أَوزِعنى أَن أَشكُرَ نِعمَتَكَ الَّتى أَنعَمتَ عَلَىَّ وَعَلىٰ وٰلِدَىَّ وَأَن أَعمَلَ صٰلِحًا تَرضىٰهُ وَأَصلِح لى فى ذُرِّيَّتى ۖ إِنّى تُبتُ إِلَيكَ وَإِنّى مِنَ المُسلِمينَ

We enjoined upon the human being kindness to his parents. His mother carried him with hardship and gave birth to him with hardship; his carrying and weaning are thirty months. When he reaches his full strength and reaches forty years, he says: My Lord, inspire me to be grateful for Your favor which You bestowed upon me and my parents, and to do good that pleases You, and make my offspring righteous for me. I have turned to You, and I am among those who submit.

Al-Ahqaf 46:16

أُولٰئِكَ الَّذينَ نَتَقَبَّلُ عَنهُم أَحسَنَ ما عَمِلوا وَنَتَجاوَزُ عَن سَيِّـٔاتِهِم فى أَصحٰبِ الجَنَّةِ ۖ وَعدَ الصِّدقِ الَّذى كانوا يوعَدونَ

They are those from whom We accept the best of what they have done and whose evil deeds We overlook, among the people of the Garden: the true promise they were given.

Al-Ahqaf 46:17

وَالَّذى قالَ لِوٰلِدَيهِ أُفٍّ لَكُما أَتَعِدانِنى أَن أُخرَجَ وَقَد خَلَتِ القُرونُ مِن قَبلى وَهُما يَستَغيثانِ اللَّهَ وَيلَكَ ءامِن إِنَّ وَعدَ اللَّهِ حَقٌّ فَيَقولُ ما هٰذا إِلّا أَسٰطيرُ الأَوَّلينَ

But the one who says to his parents: Uff to you both! Do you promise me that I will be brought out, when generations have passed before me? They seek help from The God: Woe to you! Believe; the promise of The God is true. But he says: These are only tales of the ancients.

Al-Ahqaf 46:18

أُولٰئِكَ الَّذينَ حَقَّ عَلَيهِمُ القَولُ فى أُمَمٍ قَد خَلَت مِن قَبلِهِم مِنَ الجِنِّ وَالإِنسِ ۖ إِنَّهُم كانوا خٰسِرينَ

They are those against whom the word has come true, among communities of jinn and humans that passed before them. They were losers.

Al-Ahqaf 46:19

وَلِكُلٍّ دَرَجٰتٌ مِمّا عَمِلوا ۖ وَلِيُوَفِّيَهُم أَعمٰلَهُم وَهُم لا يُظلَمونَ

For each are degrees according to what they have done, and so that He may repay their deeds in full; they will not be wronged.

Al-Ahqaf 46:20

وَيَومَ يُعرَضُ الَّذينَ كَفَروا عَلَى النّارِ أَذهَبتُم طَيِّبٰتِكُم فى حَياتِكُمُ الدُّنيا وَاستَمتَعتُم بِها فَاليَومَ تُجزَونَ عَذابَ الهونِ بِما كُنتُم تَستَكبِرونَ فِى الأَرضِ بِغَيرِ الحَقِّ وَبِما كُنتُم تَفسُقونَ

On the day those who disbelieved are presented to the Fire: You exhausted your good things in your worldly life and enjoyed them. Today you are repaid with humiliating punishment because you were arrogant on earth without right and because you were defiant.

Al-Ahqaf 46:21

وَاذكُر أَخا عادٍ إِذ أَنذَرَ قَومَهُ بِالأَحقافِ وَقَد خَلَتِ النُّذُرُ مِن بَينِ يَدَيهِ وَمِن خَلفِهِ أَلّا تَعبُدوا إِلَّا اللَّهَ إِنّى أَخافُ عَلَيكُم عَذابَ يَومٍ عَظيمٍ

Remember the brother of Ad, when he warned his people among the sand dunes—and warners had passed before him and after him—saying: Worship none but The God. I fear for you the punishment of a great day.

Al-Ahqaf 46:22

قالوا أَجِئتَنا لِتَأفِكَنا عَن ءالِهَتِنا فَأتِنا بِما تَعِدُنا إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقينَ

They said: Have you come to turn us away from our gods? Then bring us what you promise, if you are truthful.

Al-Ahqaf 46:23

قالَ إِنَّمَا العِلمُ عِندَ اللَّهِ وَأُبَلِّغُكُم ما أُرسِلتُ بِهِ وَلٰكِنّى أَرىٰكُم قَومًا تَجهَلونَ

He said: Knowledge is only with The God. I convey to you what I have been sent with, but I see you are a people acting ignorantly.

Al-Ahqaf 46:24

فَلَمّا رَأَوهُ عارِضًا مُستَقبِلَ أَودِيَتِهِم قالوا هٰذا عارِضٌ مُمطِرُنا ۚ بَل هُوَ مَا استَعجَلتُم بِهِ ۖ ريحٌ فيها عَذابٌ أَليمٌ

When they saw it as a cloud approaching their valleys, they said: This is a cloud bringing us rain. Rather, it is what you sought to hasten: a wind containing painful punishment,

Al-Ahqaf 46:25

تُدَمِّرُ كُلَّ شَىءٍ بِأَمرِ رَبِّها فَأَصبَحوا لا يُرىٰ إِلّا مَسٰكِنُهُم ۚ كَذٰلِكَ نَجزِى القَومَ المُجرِمينَ

Destroying everything by its Lord’s command. Then nothing could be seen but their dwellings. Thus We repay the guilty people.

Al-Ahqaf 46:26

وَلَقَد مَكَّنّٰهُم فيما إِن مَكَّنّٰكُم فيهِ وَجَعَلنا لَهُم سَمعًا وَأَبصٰرًا وَأَفـِٔدَةً فَما أَغنىٰ عَنهُم سَمعُهُم وَلا أَبصٰرُهُم وَلا أَفـِٔدَتُهُم مِن شَىءٍ إِذ كانوا يَجحَدونَ بِـٔايٰتِ اللَّهِ وَحاقَ بِهِم ما كانوا بِهِ يَستَهزِءونَ

We had established them in what We have not established you in, and gave them hearing, eyes, and hearts. Yet neither their hearing nor their eyes nor their hearts availed them at all, since they denied the signs of The God. What they used to mock surrounded them.

Al-Ahqaf 46:27

وَلَقَد أَهلَكنا ما حَولَكُم مِنَ القُرىٰ وَصَرَّفنَا الـٔايٰتِ لَعَلَّهُم يَرجِعونَ

We certainly destroyed the towns around you and presented the signs in varied ways, so that they might return.

Al-Ahqaf 46:28

فَلَولا نَصَرَهُمُ الَّذينَ اتَّخَذوا مِن دونِ اللَّهِ قُربانًا ءالِهَةً ۖ بَل ضَلّوا عَنهُم ۚ وَذٰلِكَ إِفكُهُم وَما كانوا يَفتَرونَ

Why did those they had taken as gods besides The God, as a means of nearness, not help them? Rather, they vanished from them. That was their falsehood and what they used to fabricate.

Al-Ahqaf 46:29

وَإِذ صَرَفنا إِلَيكَ نَفَرًا مِنَ الجِنِّ يَستَمِعونَ القُرءانَ فَلَمّا حَضَروهُ قالوا أَنصِتوا ۖ فَلَمّا قُضِىَ وَلَّوا إِلىٰ قَومِهِم مُنذِرينَ

When We directed a group of jinn to you to listen to the Quran, then when they attended it, they said: Be silent. When it was finished, they returned to their people as warners.

Al-Ahqaf 46:30

قالوا يٰقَومَنا إِنّا سَمِعنا كِتٰبًا أُنزِلَ مِن بَعدِ موسىٰ مُصَدِّقًا لِما بَينَ يَدَيهِ يَهدى إِلَى الحَقِّ وَإِلىٰ طَريقٍ مُستَقيمٍ

They said: Our people, we have heard a Book sent down after Moses, confirming what came before it, guiding to the truth and to a straight path.

Al-Ahqaf 46:31

يٰقَومَنا أَجيبوا داعِىَ اللَّهِ وَءامِنوا بِهِ يَغفِر لَكُم مِن ذُنوبِكُم وَيُجِركُم مِن عَذابٍ أَليمٍ

Our people, answer the caller of The God and believe in him; He will forgive you of your sins and protect you from a painful punishment.

Al-Ahqaf 46:32

وَمَن لا يُجِب داعِىَ اللَّهِ فَلَيسَ بِمُعجِزٍ فِى الأَرضِ وَلَيسَ لَهُ مِن دونِهِ أَولِياءُ ۚ أُولٰئِكَ فى ضَلٰلٍ مُبينٍ

Whoever does not answer the caller of The God cannot thwart Him on earth and has no protectors besides Him. Those are in clear error.

Al-Ahqaf 46:33

أَوَلَم يَرَوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ الَّذى خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضَ وَلَم يَعىَ بِخَلقِهِنَّ بِقٰدِرٍ عَلىٰ أَن يُحـِۧىَ المَوتىٰ ۚ بَلىٰ إِنَّهُ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَىءٍ قَديرٌ

Have they not seen that The God, who created the heavens and the earth and did not tire of creating them, is able to give life to the dead? Yes indeed, He has power over everything.

Al-Ahqaf 46:34

وَيَومَ يُعرَضُ الَّذينَ كَفَروا عَلَى النّارِ أَلَيسَ هٰذا بِالحَقِّ ۖ قالوا بَلىٰ وَرَبِّنا ۚ قالَ فَذوقُوا العَذابَ بِما كُنتُم تَكفُرونَ

On the day those who disbelieved are presented to the Fire: Is this not the truth? They will say: Yes, by our Lord. He will say: Then taste the punishment because you disbelieved.

Al-Ahqaf 46:35

فَاصبِر كَما صَبَرَ أُولُوا العَزمِ مِنَ الرُّسُلِ وَلا تَستَعجِل لَهُم ۚ كَأَنَّهُم يَومَ يَرَونَ ما يوعَدونَ لَم يَلبَثوا إِلّا ساعَةً مِن نَهارٍ ۚ بَلٰغٌ ۚ فَهَل يُهلَكُ إِلَّا القَومُ الفٰسِقونَ

So be patient, as the messengers of firm resolve were patient, and do not seek to hasten it for them. On the day they see what they are promised, it will be as though they had stayed only an hour of a day. A proclamation. Will any but the defiant people be destroyed?
