Ta-Ha
مَآ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْكَ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِتَشْقَىٰٓ
﴿٣﴾
We have not sent down the Qur'an to you to cause you distress.
إِلَّا تَذْكِرَةًۭ لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰ
﴿٤﴾
But as a reminder for those who fear [Allah].
تَنزِيلًۭا مِّمَّنْ خَلَقَ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ ٱلْعُلَى
﴿٥﴾
A revelation from He who created the earth and the highest heavens.
ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱسْتَوَىٰ
﴿٦﴾
The Most Merciful, established on the Throne.
لَهُۥ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمَا تَحْتَ ٱلثَّرَىٰ
﴿٧﴾
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth, and whatever is between them, and whatever is under the soil.
وَإِن تَجْهَرْ بِٱلْقَوْلِ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلسِّرَّ وَأَخْفَى
﴿٨﴾
And if you speak aloud [the message], indeed He knows the secret and the hidden.
ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ لَهُ ٱلْأَسْمَآءُ ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
﴿٩﴾
Allah – there is no deity except Him. To Him belong the best names.
وَهَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰ
﴿١٠﴾
Has the story of Moses reached you?
إِذْ رَءَا نَارًۭا فَقَالَ لِأَهْلِهِ ٱمْكُثُوٓا۟ إِنِّىٓ ءَانَسْتُ نَارًۭا لَّعَلِّىٓ ءَاتِيكُم مِّنْهَا بِقَبَسٍ أَوْ أَجِدُ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ هُدًۭى
﴿١١﴾
When he saw a fire and said to his family: 'Stay here; indeed, I have perceived a fire. Perhaps I can bring you a torch from it or find guidance at the fire.'
فَلَمَّآ أَتَىٰهَا نُودِىَ يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿١٢﴾
But when he approached it, he was called, 'O Moses!'
إِنِّىٓ أَنَا۠ رَبُّكَ فَٱخْلَعْ نَعْلَيْكَ ۖ إِنَّكَ بِٱلْوَادِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ طُوًۭى
﴿١٣﴾
Indeed, I am your Lord, so remove your sandals. Indeed, you are in the sacred valley of Tuwa.
وَأَنَا ٱخْتَرْتُكَ فَٱسْتَمِعْ لِمَا يُوحَىٰٓ
﴿١٤﴾
And I have chosen you, so listen to what is revealed.
إِنَّنِىٓ أَنَا ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّآ أَنَا۠ فَٱعْبُدْنِى وَأَقِمِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ لِذِكْرِىٓ
﴿١٥﴾
Indeed, I am Allah. There is no deity except Me, so worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance.
إِنَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ ءَاتِيَةٌ أَكَادُ أُخْفِيهَا لِتُجْزَىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍۭ بِمَا تَسْعَىٰ
﴿١٦﴾
Indeed, the Hour is coming – I almost conceal it – so that every soul may be recompensed for what it strives.
فَلَا يَصُدَّنَّكَ عَنْهَا مَن لَّا يُؤْمِنُ بِهَا وَٱتَّبَعَ هَوَىٰهُ فَتَرْدَىٰ
﴿١٧﴾
So let not those who do not believe in it and follow their desires avert you from it, lest you perish.
وَمَا تِلْكَ بِيَمِينِكَ يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿١٨﴾
And what is that in your right hand, O Moses?
قَالَ هِىَ عَصَاىَ أَتَوَكَّؤُا۟ عَلَيْهَا وَأَهُشُّ بِهَا عَلَىٰ غَنَمِى وَلِىَ فِيهَا مَـَٔارِبُ أُخْرَىٰ
﴿١٩﴾
He said, 'It is my staff; I lean on it, and I strike with it for my sheep, and I have other uses for it.'
قَالَ أَلْقِهَا يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿٢٠﴾
He said, 'Throw it down, O Moses.'
فَأَلْقَىٰهَا فَإِذَا هِىَ حَيَّةٌۭ تَسْعَىٰ
﴿٢١﴾
So he threw it, and behold, it was a serpent moving swiftly.
قَالَ خُذْهَا وَلَا تَخَفْ ۖ سَنُعِيدُهَا سِيرَتَهَا ٱلْأُولَىٰ
﴿٢٢﴾
Allah said, 'Seize it and do not fear; We will return it to its former state.'
وَٱضْمُمْ يَدَكَ إِلَىٰ جَنَاحِكَ تَخْرُجْ بَيْضَآءَ مِنْ غَيْرِ سُوٓءٍ ءَايَةً أُخْرَىٰ
﴿٢٣﴾
And place your hand under your arm; it will come out white without disease – another sign.
لِنُرِيَكَ مِنْ ءَايَاتِنَا ٱلْكُبْرَى
﴿٢٤﴾
To show you some of Our greater signs.
ٱذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ
﴿٢٥﴾
Go to Pharaoh; indeed, he has transgressed.
قَالَ رَبِّ ٱشْرَحْ لِى صَدْرِى
﴿٢٦﴾
Moses said, 'My Lord, expand for me my breast.'
وَيَسِّرْ لِىٓ أَمْرِى
﴿٢٧﴾
And ease for me my task.
وَٱحْلُلْ عُقْدَةًۭ مِّن لِّسَانِى
﴿٢٨﴾
And untie the knot from my tongue.
يَفْقَهُوا۟ قَوْلِى
﴿٢٩﴾
That they may understand my speech.
وَٱجْعَل لِّى وَزِيرًۭا مِّنْ أَهْلِى
﴿٣٠﴾
And appoint for me a helper from my family.
هَـٰرُونَ أَخِى
﴿٣١﴾
Aaron, my brother.
ٱشْدُدْ بِهِۦٓ أَزْرِى
﴿٣٢﴾
Strengthen me through him.
وَأَشْرِكْهُ فِىٓ أَمْرِى
﴿٣٣﴾
And share with him my task.
كَىْ نُسَبِّحَكَ كَثِيرًۭا
﴿٣٤﴾
So that We may glorify You much.
وَنَذْكُرَكَ كَثِيرًا
﴿٣٥﴾
And remember You often.
إِنَّكَ كُنتَ بِنَا بَصِيرًۭا
﴿٣٦﴾
Indeed, You have been seeing us.
قَالَ قَدْ أُوتِيتَ سُؤْلَكَ يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿٣٧﴾
Allah said, 'Your request has been granted, O Moses.'
وَلَقَدْ مَنَنَّا عَلَيْكَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَىٰٓ
﴿٣٨﴾
And We conferred upon you another favor.
إِذْ أَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَىٰٓ أُمِّكَ مَا يُوحَىٰٓ
﴿٣٩﴾
When We inspired your mother with what was inspired.
أَنِ ٱقْذِفِيهِ فِى ٱلتَّابُوتِ فَٱقْذِفِيهِ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ فَلْيُلْقِهِ ٱلْيَمُّ بِٱلسَّاحِلِ يَأْخُذْهُ عَدُوٌّۭ لِّى وَعَدُوٌّۭ لَّهُۥ ۚ وَأَلْقَيْتُ عَلَيْكَ مَحَبَّةًۭ مِّنِّى وَلِتُصْنَعَ عَلَىٰ عَيْنِىٓ
﴿٤٠﴾
That you cast him into the chest, then cast it into the river, so the river would deposit him on the shore, where an enemy to Me and an enemy to him would pick him up. And I cast My love upon you so that you would be brought up under My eye.
إِذْ تَمْشِىٓ أُخْتُكَ فَتَقُولُ هَلْ أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَىٰ مَن يَكْفُلُهُۥ ۖ فَرَجَعْنَـٰكَ إِلَىٰٓ أُمِّكَ كَىْ تَقَرَّ عَيْنُهَا وَلَا تَحْزَنَ ۚ وَقَتَلْتَ نَفْسًۭا فَنَجَّيْنَـٰكَ مِنَ ٱلْغَمِّ وَفَتَنَّـٰكَ فُتُونًۭا ۚ فَلَبِثْتَ سِنِينَ فِىٓ أَهْلِ مَدْيَنَ ثُمَّ جِئْتَ عَلَىٰ قَدَرٍۢ يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿٤١﴾
When your sister walked and said, 'Shall I show you someone to take care of him?' So We returned you to your mother so that her eyes might be comforted and she would not grieve. And you killed a soul, but We saved you from distress and tested you for years in Madyan; then you came according to a decree, O Moses.
وَٱصْطَنَعْتُكَ لِنَفْسِى
﴿٤٢﴾
And I have chosen you for Myself.
ٱذْهَبْ أَنتَ وَأَخُوكَ بِـَٔايَـٰتِى وَلَا تَنِيَا فِى ذِكْرِى
﴿٤٣﴾
Go, you and your brother, with My signs and do not slacken in remembering Me.
ٱذْهَبَآ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ
﴿٤٤﴾
Go to Pharaoh; indeed he has transgressed.
فَقُولَا لَهُۥ قَوْلًۭا لَّيِّنًۭا لَّعَلَّهُۥ يَتَذَكَّرُ أَوْ يَخْشَىٰ
﴿٤٥﴾
Speak to him gently, perhaps he may take heed or fear Allah.
قَالَا رَبَّنَآ إِنَّنَا نَخَافُ أَن يَفْرُطَ عَلَيْنَآ أَوْ أَن يَطْغَىٰ
﴿٤٦﴾
They said, 'Our Lord, we fear that he may hasten to harm us or transgress.'
قَالَ لَا تَخَافَآ ۖ إِنَّنِى مَعَكُمَآ أَسْمَعُ وَأَرَىٰ
﴿٤٧﴾
Allah said, 'Do not fear; indeed, I am with you both. I hear and see.'
فَأْتِيَاهُ فَقُولَآ إِنَّا رَسُولَا رَبِّكَ فَأَرْسِلْ مَعَنَا بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ وَلَا تُعَذِّبْهُمْ ۖ قَدْ جِئْنَـٰكَ بِـَٔايَةٍۢ مِّن رَّبِّكَ ۖ وَٱلسَّلَـٰمُ عَلَىٰ مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلْهُدَىٰ
﴿٤٨﴾
So they approached him and said, 'We are messengers of your Lord. Send with us the Children of Israel and do not torment them. We have come to you with a sign from your Lord. Peace be upon he who follows guidance.'
إِنَّا قَدْ أُوحِىَ إِلَيْنَآ أَنَّ ٱلْعَذَابَ عَلَىٰ مَن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
﴿٤٩﴾
Indeed, it has been revealed to us that the punishment will be upon those who deny and turn away.
قَالَ فَمَن رَّبُّكُمَا يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿٥٠﴾
He said, 'Who is your Lord, O Moses?'
قَالَ رَبُّنَا ٱلَّذِىٓ أَعْطَى كُلَّ شَىْءٍ خَلْقَهُۥ ثُمَّ هَدَىٰ
﴿٥١﴾
Moses said, 'Our Lord is He who gave each thing its creation and then guided.'
قَالَ فَمَا بَالُ ٱلْقُرُونِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
﴿٥٢﴾
Pharaoh said, 'Then what about the former generations?'
قَالَ عِلْمُهَا عِندَ رَبِّى فِى كِتَـٰبٍۢ ۖ لَّا يَضِلُّ رَبِّى وَلَا يَنسَى
﴿٥٣﴾
Moses said, 'Knowledge of it is with my Lord in a Record. My Lord neither errs nor forgets.'
ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ مَهْدًۭا وَسَلَكَ لَكُمْ فِيهَا سُبُلًۭا وَأَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۭ فَأَخْرَجْنَا بِهِۦٓ أَزْوَٰجًۭا مِّن نَّبَاتٍۢ شَتَّىٰ
﴿٥٤﴾
It is He who made the earth a resting place for you and made pathways upon it and sent down water from the sky; thereby We brought forth various kinds of plants.
كُلُوا۟ وَٱرْعَوْا۟ أَنْعَـٰمَكُمْ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍۢ لِّأُو۟لِى ٱلنُّهَىٰ
﴿٥٥﴾
Eat of your livestock and pasture them; indeed in that are signs for those of understanding.
مِنْهَا خَلَقْنَـٰكُمْ وَفِيهَا نُعِيدُكُمْ وَمِنْهَا نُخْرِجُكُمْ تَارَةً أُخْرَىٰ
﴿٥٦﴾
From it We created you, and into it We shall return you, and from it We will bring you forth another time.
وَلَقَدْ أَرَيْنَـٰهُ ءَايَـٰتِنَا كُلَّهَا فَكَذَّبَ وَأَبَىٰ
﴿٥٧﴾
And We showed him all Our signs, but he denied and refused.
قَالَ أَجِئْتَنَا لِتُخْرِجَنَا مِنْ أَرْضِنَا بِسِحْرِكَ يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿٥٨﴾
He said, 'Have you come to drive us out of our land with your magic, O Moses?'
فَلَنَأْتِيَنَّكَ بِسِحْرٍۢ مِّثْلِهِۦ فَٱجْعَلْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكَ مَوْعِدًۭا لَّا نُخْلِفُهُۥ نَحْنُ وَلَآ أَنتَ مَكَانًۭا سُوًۭى
﴿٥٩﴾
He said, 'We will bring you magic like it, so set a meeting between us and you that we will not fail, neither we nor you.'
قَالَ مَوْعِدُكُمْ يَوْمُ ٱلزِّينَةِ وَأَن يُحْشَرَ ٱلنَّاسُ ضُحًۭى
﴿٦٠﴾
Moses said, 'Your appointed time is the Day of Gathering, when the people are assembled at mid-morning.'
فَتَوَلَّىٰ فِرْعَوْنُ فَجَمَعَ كَيْدَهُۥ ثُمَّ أَتَىٰ
﴿٦١﴾
Then Pharaoh turned away and planned his scheme, then he came forth.
قَالَ لَهُم مُّوسَىٰ وَيْلَكُمْ لَا تَفْتَرُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًۭا فَيُسْحِتَكُم بِعَذَابٍۢ ۖ وَقَدْ خَابَ مَنِ ٱفْتَرَىٰ
﴿٦٢﴾
Moses said to them, 'Woe to you! Do not fabricate lies against Allah, lest He destroy you with a punishment. Indeed, the inventors fail.'
فَتَنَـٰزَعُوٓا۟ أَمْرَهُم بَيْنَهُمْ وَأَسَرُّوا۟ ٱلنَّجْوَىٰ
﴿٦٣﴾
Then they disputed among themselves and secretly conferred.
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَـٰذَٰنِ لَسَـٰحِرَٰنِ يُرِيدَانِ أَن يُخْرِجَاكُم مِّنْ أَرْضِكُم بِسِحْرِهِمَا وَيَذْهَبَا بِطَرِيقَتِكُمُ ٱلْمُثْلَىٰ
﴿٦٤﴾
They said, 'These two are magicians who want to drive you out of your land by their magic and to overturn your usual way.'
فَأَجْمِعُوا۟ كَيْدَكُمْ ثُمَّ ٱئْتُوا۟ صَفًّۭا ۚ وَقَدْ أَفْلَحَ ٱلْيَوْمَ مَنِ ٱسْتَعْلَىٰ
﴿٦٥﴾
So plot your scheme and then come in ranks. Indeed, the successful one today will be the dominant.'
قَالُوا۟ يَـٰمُوسَىٰٓ إِمَّآ أَن تُلْقِىَ وَإِمَّآ أَن نَّكُونَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ أَلْقَىٰ
﴿٦٦﴾
They said, 'O Moses, either you throw first or we will be the first to throw.'
قَالَ بَلْ أَلْقُوا۟ ۖ فَإِذَا حِبَالُهُمْ وَعِصِيُّهُمْ يُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِ مِن سِحْرِهِمْ أَنَّهَا تَسْعَىٰ
﴿٦٧﴾
He said, 'Rather, throw.' And behold, their ropes and staffs appeared to move as if by magic to the eyes of the spectators.
فَأَوْجَسَ فِى نَفْسِهِۦ خِيفَةًۭ مُّوسَىٰ
﴿٦٨﴾
Moses sensed fear in himself.
قُلْنَا لَا تَخَفْ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
﴿٦٩﴾
We said, 'Do not fear; indeed, you are the uppermost.'
وَأَلْقِ مَا فِى يَمِينِكَ تَلْقَفْ مَا صَنَعُوٓا۟ ۖ إِنَّمَا صَنَعُوا۟ كَيْدُ سَـٰحِرٍۢ ۖ وَلَا يُفْلِحُ ٱلسَّاحِرُ حَيْثُ أَتَىٰ
﴿٧٠﴾
And throw what is in your right hand; it will swallow what they have fabricated. Indeed, what they have done is magic, and the magician will not prosper wherever he is.
فَأُلْقِىَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ سُجَّدًۭا قَالُوٓا۟ ءَامَنَّا بِرَبِّ هَـٰرُونَ وَمُوسَىٰ
﴿٧١﴾
Then the magicians fell prostrate, saying, 'We believe in the Lord of Aaron and Moses.'
قَالَ ءَامَنتُمْ لَهُۥ قَبْلَ أَنْ ءَاذَنَ لَكُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ ٱلَّذِى عَلَّمَكُمُ ٱلسِّحْرَ ۖ فَلَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيْدِيَكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُم مِّنْ خِلَـٰفٍۢ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمْ فِى جُذُوعِ ٱلنَّخْلِ وَلَتَعْلَمُنَّ أَيُّنَآ أَشَدُّ عَذَابًۭا وَأَبْقَىٰ
﴿٧٢﴾
He said, 'Did you believe in him before I permitted you? Indeed, he is your chief who taught you magic. I will surely cut off your hands and feet on opposite sides and crucify you on the trunks of palm trees, so you may know which of us is more severe in punishment and enduring.'
قَالُوا۟ لَن نُّؤْثِرَكَ عَلَىٰ مَا جَآءَنَا مِنَ ٱلْبَيِّنَـٰتِ وَٱلَّذِى فَطَرَنَا ۖ فَٱقْضِ مَآ أَنتَ قَاضٍ ۖ إِنَّمَا تَقْضِى هَـٰذِهِ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَآ
﴿٧٣﴾
They said, 'We will not prefer you over what has come to us of clear proofs and He who created us. So judge among us as you will; indeed, you only judge this worldly life.'
إِنَّآ ءَامَنَّا بِرَبِّنَا لِيَغْفِرَ لَنَا خَطَـٰيَـٰنَا وَمَآ أَكْرَهْتَنَا عَلَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلسِّحْرِ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ خَيْرٌۭ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ
﴿٧٤﴾
Indeed, we believe in our Lord, that He may forgive us our sins, and the magic you compelled us to perform does not grieve us; and Allah is better and enduring.
إِنَّهُۥ مَن يَأْتِ رَبَّهُۥ مُجْرِمًۭا فَإِنَّ لَهُۥ جَهَنَّمَ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ
﴿٧٥﴾
Indeed, whoever comes to his Lord as a sinner, for him is Hell; he will neither die therein nor live.
وَمَن يَأْتِهِۦ مُؤْمِنًۭا قَدْ عَمِلَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمُ ٱلدَّرَجَـٰتُ ٱلْعُلَىٰ
﴿٧٦﴾
But whoever comes to Him as a believer having done righteous deeds, they will have the highest ranks.
جَنَّـٰتُ عَدْنٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ خَـٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا ۚ وَذَٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ
﴿٧٧﴾
Gardens of Eternity, beneath which rivers flow, abiding therein forever. And that is the reward of those who purify themselves.
وَلَقَدْ أَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنْ أَسْرِ بِعِبَادِى فَٱضْرِبْ لَهُمْ طَرِيقًۭا فِى ٱلْبَحْرِ يَبَسًۭا لَّا تَخَـٰفُ دَرَكًۭا وَلَا تَخْشَىٰ
﴿٧٨﴾
And We inspired Moses, 'Travel by night with My servants, and strike a path through the sea dry, you need not fear being overtaken or be afraid.'
فَأَتْبَعَهُمْ فِرْعَوْنُ بِجُنُودِهِۦ فَغَشِيَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْيَمِّ مَا غَشِيَهُمْ
﴿٧٩﴾
Then Pharaoh pursued them with his armies, and the sea overwhelmed them.
وَأَضَلَّ فِرْعَوْنُ قَوْمَهُۥ وَمَا هَدَىٰ
﴿٨٠﴾
And Pharaoh led his people astray and did not guide them.
يَـٰبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ قَدْ أَنجَيْنَـٰكُم مِّنْ عَدُوِّكُمْ وَوَٰعَدْنَـٰكُمْ جَانِبَ ٱلطُّورِ ٱلْأَيْمَنَ وَنَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْمَنَّ وَٱلسَّلْوَىٰ
﴿٨١﴾
O Children of Israel, We have saved you from your enemy, and We promised you the right side of Mount Sinai, and sent down upon you manna and quails.
كُلُوا۟ مِن طَيِّبَـٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنَـٰكُمْ وَلَا تَطْغَوْا۟ فِيهِ فَيَحِلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ غَضَبِى ۖ وَمَن يَحْلِلْ عَلَيْهِ غَضَبِى فَقَدْ هَوَىٰ
﴿٨٢﴾
Eat of the good things We have provided you, and do not exceed limits, lest My anger descend upon you. And whoever My anger descends upon has surely fallen.
وَإِنِّى لَغَفَّارٌۭ لِّمَن تَابَ وَءَامَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَـٰلِحًۭا ثُمَّ ٱهْتَدَىٰ
﴿٨٣﴾
Indeed, I am Forgiving to whoever repents, believes, and does righteous deeds, then follows guidance.
وَمَآ أَعْجَلَكَ عَن قَوْمِكَ يَـٰمُوسَىٰ
﴿٨٤﴾
And what made you hasten from your people, O Moses?
قَالَ هُمْ أُو۟لَآءِ عَلَىٰٓ أَثَرِى وَعَجِلْتُ إِلَيْكَ رَبِّ لِتَرْضَىٰ
﴿٨٥﴾
He said, 'They are following my tracks, and I hastened to You, my Lord, that You might be pleased.'
قَالَ فَإِنَّا قَدْ فَتَنَّا قَوْمَكَ مِنۢ بَعْدِكَ وَأَضَلَّهُمُ ٱلسَّامِرِىُّ
﴿٨٦﴾
He said, 'Indeed, We have tested your people after you, and the Samiri has led them astray.'
فَرَجَعَ مُوسَىٰٓ إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِۦ غَضْبَـٰنَ أَسِفًۭا ۚ قَالَ يَـٰقَوْمِ أَلَمْ يَعِدْكُمْ رَبُّكُمْ وَعْدًا حَسَنًا ۚ أَفَطَالَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْعَهْدُ أَمْ أَرَدتُّمْ أَن يَحِلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ غَضَبٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ فَأَخْلَفْتُم مَّوْعِدِى
﴿٨٧﴾
Then Moses returned to his people in anger and sorrow. He said, 'O my people, did your Lord not promise you a good promise? Or has the term been long with you, or did you desire that My anger descend upon you so you break My appointment?'
قَالُوا۟ مَآ أَخْلَفْنَا مَوْعِدَكَ بِمَلْكِنَا وَلَـٰكِنَّا حُمِّلْنَآ أَوْزَارًۭا مِّن زِينَةِ ٱلْقَوْمِ فَقَذَفْنَـٰهَا فَكَذَٰلِكَ أَلْقَى ٱلسَّامِرِىُّ
﴿٨٨﴾
They said, 'We did not break your promise with our own will, but we were burdened with ornaments of the people, so we cast them away. And thus the Samiri led them.'
فَأَخْرَجَ لَهُمْ عِجْلًۭا جَسَدًۭا لَّهُۥ خُوَارٌۭ فَقَالُوا۟ هَـٰذَآ إِلَـٰهُكُمْ وَإِلَـٰهُ مُوسَىٰ فَنَسِىَ
﴿٨٩﴾
Then he made for them a calf, a body with a voice, and they said, 'This is your god and the god of Moses.' And they forgot.
أَفَلَا يَرَوْنَ أَلَّا يَرْجِعُ إِلَيْهِمْ قَوْلًۭا وَلَا يَمْلِكُ لَهُمْ ضَرًّۭا وَلَا نَفْعًۭا
﴿٩٠﴾
Do they not see that it will not speak to them, nor will it harm or benefit them?
وَلَقَدْ قَالَ لَهُمْ هَـٰرُونُ مِن قَبْلُ يَـٰقَوْمِ إِنَّمَا فُتِنتُم بِهِۦ ۖ وَإِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ فَٱتَّبِعُونِى وَأَطِيعُوٓا۟ أَمْرِى
﴿٩١﴾
And Aaron had already said to them, 'O my people, you are only being tested, and indeed your Lord is the Most Merciful, so follow me and obey my command.'
قَالُوا۟ لَن نَّبْرَحَ عَلَيْهِ عَـٰكِفِينَ حَتَّىٰ يَرْجِعَ إِلَيْنَا مُوسَىٰ
﴿٩٢﴾
They said, 'We will not stop worshipping it until Moses returns to us.'
قَالَ يَـٰهَـٰرُونُ مَا مَنَعَكَ إِذْ رَأَيْتَهُمْ ضَلُّوٓا۟
﴿٩٣﴾
He said, 'O Aaron, what prevented you when you saw them go astray?'
أَلَّا تَتَّبِعَنِ ۖ أَفَعَصَيْتَ أَمْرِى
﴿٩٤﴾
Did you not follow me? Did you disobey my command?
قَالَ يَبْنُؤُمَّ لَا تَأْخُذْ بِلِحْيَتِى وَلَا بِرَأْسِىٓ ۖ إِنِّى خَشِيتُ أَن تَقُولَ فَرَّقْتَ بَيْنَ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ وَلَمْ تَرْقُبْ قَوْلِى
﴿٩٥﴾
He said, 'O my son, do not seize me by the beard or head. I feared you would say, 'You caused division among the Children of Israel,' and did not consider my words.'
قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكَ يَـٰسَـٰمِرِىُّ
﴿٩٦﴾
He said, 'What is your case, O Samiri?'
قَالَ بَصُرْتُ بِمَا لَمْ يَبْصُرُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَقَبَضْتُ قَبْضَةًۭ مِّنْ أَثَرِ ٱلرَّسُولِ فَنَبَذْتُهَا وَكَذَٰلِكَ سَوَّلَتْ لِى نَفْسِى
﴿٩٧﴾
He said, 'I saw what they did not see, so I took a handful from the relics of the messenger and cast it. Thus my soul suggested to me.'
قَالَ فَٱذْهَبْ فَإِنَّ لَكَ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ أَن تَقُولَ لَا مِسَاسَ ۖ وَإِنَّ لَكَ مَوْعِدًۭا لَّن تُخْلَفَهُۥ ۖ وَٱنظُرْ إِلَىٰٓ إِلَـٰهِكَ ٱلَّذِى ظَلْتَ عَلَيْهِ عَاكِفًۭا ۖ لَّنُحَرِّقَنَّهُۥ ثُمَّ لَنَنسِفَنَّهُۥ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ نَسْفًا
﴿٩٨﴾
He said, 'Go! Indeed, for you in this life is saying 'No touch', and indeed for you is a promise which will not fail. And look at your god to which you remained devoted; We will burn it, then scatter it into the sea.'
إِنَّمَآ إِلَـٰهُكُمُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ عِلْمًۭا
﴿٩٩﴾
Indeed, your god is Allah, there is no deity except Him. He encompasses all things in knowledge.
كَذَٰلِكَ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَنۢبَآءِ مَا قَدْ سَبَقَ ۚ وَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَـٰكَ مِن لَّدُنَّا ذِكْرًۭا
﴿١٠٠﴾
Thus We relate to you some of the stories of what has passed before, and We have granted you a reminder from Us.
مَّنْ أَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَحْمِلُ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ وِزْرًا
﴿١٠١﴾
Whoever turns away from it, indeed he will bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection.
خَـٰلِدِينَ فِيهِ ۖ وَسَآءَ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ حِمْلًۭا
﴿١٠٢﴾
Remaining therein forever, and an evil burden it will be for them on the Day of Resurrection.
يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِى ٱلصُّورِ ۚ وَنَحْشُرُ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ زُرْقًۭا
﴿١٠٣﴾
The Day the Trumpet is blown, and We will gather the criminals that Day, blue-eyed [in distress].
يَتَخَـٰفَتُونَ بَيْنَهُمْ إِن لَّبِثْتُمْ إِلَّا عَشْرًۭا
﴿١٠٤﴾
They will whisper among themselves, 'You did not remain except ten [days].'
نَّحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ إِذْ يَقُولُ أَمْثَلُهُمْ طَرِيقَةً إِن لَّبِثْتُمْ إِلَّا يَوْمًۭا
﴿١٠٥﴾
We know what they say when the best among them speak, 'You remained not except a day.'
وَيَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلْجِبَالِ فَقُلْ يَنسِفُهَا رَبِّى نَسْفًۭا
﴿١٠٦﴾
And they ask you about the mountains, say, 'My Lord will blow them away completely.'
فَيَذَرُهَا قَاعًۭا صَفْصَفًۭا
﴿١٠٧﴾
Then He will leave it as a leveled plain.
لَّا تَرَىٰ فِيهَا عِوَجًۭا وَلَآ أَمْتًۭا
﴿١٠٨﴾
You will not see therein any crookedness or unevenness.
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ يَتَّبِعُونَ ٱلدَّاعِىَ لَا عِوَجَ لَهُ ۖ وَخَشَعَتِ ٱلْأَصْوَاتُ لِلرَّحْمَـٰنِ فَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَّا هَمْسًۭا
﴿١٠٩﴾
That Day they will follow the Caller without deviation, and all voices will humble themselves to the Most Merciful, hearing only a whisper.
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لَّا تَنفَعُ ٱلشَّفَـٰعَةُ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ وَرَضِىَ لَهُۥ قَوْلًۭا
﴿١١٠﴾
No intercession will benefit except for whom the Most Merciful permits and approves their word.
يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِهِۦ عِلْمًۭا
﴿١١١﴾
He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot encompass Him in knowledge.
وَعَنَتِ ٱلْوُجُوهُ لِلْحَىِّ ٱلْقَيُّومِ ۖ وَقَدْ خَابَ مَنْ حَمَلَ ظُلْمًۭا
﴿١١٢﴾
Faces will humble themselves before the Ever-Living, the Sustainer. And failed is he who carried injustice.
وَمَنْ يَعْمَلْ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌۭ فَلَا يَخَافُ ظُلْمًۭا وَلَا هَضْمًۭا
﴿١١٣﴾
And whoever does righteous deeds while believing, he will neither fear injustice nor loss.
وَكَذَٰلِكَ أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ قُرْءَانًا عَرَبِيًّۭا وَصَرَّفْنَا فِيهِ مِنَ ٱلْوَعِيدِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُونَ أَوْ يُحْدِثُ لَهُمْ ذِكْرًۭا
﴿١١٤﴾
And thus We have sent it down as an Arabic Quran and made therein from the warnings, that they may fear Allah or it may produce a reminder for them.
فَتَعَـٰلَى ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْحَقُّ ۗ وَلَا تَعْجَلْ بِٱلْقُرْءَانِ مِن قَبْلِ أَن يُقْضَىٰٓ إِلَيْكَ وَحْيُهُۥ ۖ وَقُل رَّبِّ زِدْنِى عِلْمًۭا
﴿١١٥﴾
Exalted is Allah, the Sovereign Truth. Do not hasten the Quran before its revelation is completed to you, and say, 'My Lord, increase me in knowledge.'
وَلَقَدْ عَهِدْنَآ إِلَىٰٓ ءَادَمَ مِن قَبْلُ فَنَسِىَ وَلَمْ نَجِدْ لَهُۥ عَزْمًۭا
﴿١١٦﴾
And We had already taken a promise from Adam before, but he forgot; and We found not in him determination.
وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِـَٔادَمَ فَسَجَدُوٓا۟ إِلَّآ إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ
﴿١١٧﴾
And [mention] when We said to the angels, 'Prostrate to Adam,' and they prostrated, except Iblis; he refused.
فَقُلْنَا يَـٰٓـَٔادَمُ إِنَّ هَـٰذَا عَدُوٌّۭ لَّكَ وَلِزَوْجِكَ فَلَا يُخْرِجَنَّكُمَا مِنَ ٱلْجَنَّةِ فَتَشْقَىٰٓ
﴿١١٨﴾
We said, 'O Adam, indeed this is an enemy to you and your wife, so let him not remove you from Paradise that you would be miserable.'
إِنَّ لَكَ أَلَّا تَجُوعَ فِيهَا وَلَا تَعْرَىٰ
﴿١١٩﴾
Indeed, therein you will not be hungry nor naked.
وَأَنَّكَ لَا تَظْمَؤُا۟ فِيهَا وَلَا تَضْحَىٰ
﴿١٢٠﴾
And you will not suffer thirst therein nor the sun's heat.
فَوَسْوَسَ إِلَيْهِ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ قَالَ يَـٰٓـَٔادَمُ هَلْ أَدُلُّكَ عَلَىٰ شَجَرَةِ ٱلْخُلْدِ وَمُلْكٍۢ لَّا يَبْلَىٰ
﴿١٢١﴾
But Satan whispered to him, 'O Adam, shall I direct you to the tree of eternity and a kingdom that will not decay?'
فَأَكَلَا مِنْهَا فَبَدَتْ لَهُمَا سَوْءَٰتُهُمَا وَطَفِقَا يَخْصِفَانِ عَلَيْهِمَا مِن وَرَقِ ٱلْجَنَّةِ ۚ وَعَصَىٰٓ ءَادَمُ رَبَّهُۥ فَغَوَىٰ
﴿١٢٢﴾
So they both ate of it, and their private parts became apparent to them, and they began to fasten themselves with leaves of Paradise. And Adam disobeyed his Lord, and went astray.
ثُمَّ ٱجْتَبَـٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ وَهَدَىٰ
﴿١٢٣﴾
Then his Lord chose him, accepted his repentance, and guided him.
قَالَ ٱهْبِطَا مِنْهَا جَمِيعًۢا ۖ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّۭ ۖ فَإِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُم مِّنِّى هُدًۭى فَمَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ هُدَاىَ فَلَا يَضِلُّ وَلَا يَشْقَىٰ
﴿١٢٤﴾
He said, 'Descend from it, all of you. You are enemies to each other. But if guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance will neither go astray nor suffer.'
وَمَنْ أَعْرَضَ عَن ذِكْرِى فَإِنَّ لَهُۥ مَعِيشَةًۭ ضَنكًۭا وَنَحْشُرُهُۥ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ أَعْمَىٰ
﴿١٢٥﴾
But whoever turns away from My remembrance, his will be a constrained life, and We will raise him blind on the Day of Resurrection.
قَالَ رَبِّ لِمَ حَشَرْتَنِىٓ أَعْمَىٰ وَقَدْ كُنتُ بَصِيرًۭا
﴿١٢٦﴾
He will say, 'My Lord, why have You raised me blind while I was seeing?'
قَالَ كَذَٰلِكَ أَتَتْكَ ءَايَـٰتُنَا فَنَسِيتَهَا ۖ وَكَذَٰلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ تُنسَىٰ
﴿١٢٧﴾
He will say, 'Thus did Our signs come to you, and you forgot them; thus will you be forgotten today.'
وَكَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى مَنْ أَسْرَفَ وَلَمْ يُؤْمِنۢ بِـَٔايَـٰتِ رَبِّهِۦ ۚ وَلَعَذَابُ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ أَشَدُّ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ
﴿١٢٨﴾
And thus We recompense whoever exceeds bounds and does not believe in the signs of his Lord. And the punishment of the Hereafter is more severe and lasting.
أَفَلَمْ يَهْدِ لَهُمْ كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْقُرُونِ يَمْشُونَ فِى مَسَـٰكِنِهِمْ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍۢ لِّأُو۟لِى ٱلنُّهَىٰ
﴿١٢٩﴾
Then will they not reflect on how many generations We destroyed before them, who walked in their dwellings? Indeed in that are signs for those of understanding.
وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌۭ سَبَقَتْ مِن رَّبِّكَ لَكَانَ لِزَامًۭا وَأَجَلٌۭ مُّسَمًّۭى
﴿١٣٠﴾
And if not that a word had preceded from your Lord, it would have been an inevitable decree with a specified term.
فَٱصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ ٱلشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ غُرُوبِهَا ۖ وَمِنْ ءَانَآئِ ٱلَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْ وَأَطْرَافَ ٱلنَّهَارِ لَعَلَّكَ تَرْضَىٰ
﴿١٣١﴾
So be patient over what they say and exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before its setting, and during parts of the night exalt Him and at the ends of the day, that you may be satisfied.
وَلَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَىٰ مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِۦٓ أَزْوَٰجًۭا مِّنْهُمْ زَهْرَةَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ ۚ وَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌۭ وَأَبْقَىٰ
﴿١٣٢﴾
And do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [some] categories of them—the splendor of worldly life—so We may test them thereby. But the provision of your Lord is better and more lasting.
وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ بِٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَٱصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا ۖ لَا نَسْـَٔلُكَ رِزْقًۭا ۖ نَّحْنُ نَرْزُقُكَ ۗ وَٱلْعَـٰقِبَةُ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ
﴿١٣٣﴾
And enjoin prayer upon your family and be steadfast therein. We ask not of you provision; We provide for you. And the [best] outcome is for the righteous.
وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْلَا يَأْتِينَا بِـَٔايَةٍۢ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦٓ ۚ أَوَلَمْ تَأْتِهِم بَيِّنَةُ مَا فِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
﴿١٣٤﴾
And they say, 'Why does he not bring us a sign from his Lord?' Did not a clear evidence come to them in the former scriptures?
وَلَوْ أَنَّآ أَهْلَكْنَـٰهُم بِعَذَابٍۢ مِّن قَبْلِهِۦ لَقَالُوا۟ رَبَّنَا لَوْلَآ أَرْسَلْتَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولًۭا فَنَتَّبِعَ ءَايَـٰتِكَ مِن قَبْلِ أَن نَّذِلَّ وَنَخْزَىٰ
﴿١٣٥﴾
And if We had destroyed them with a punishment before him, they would have said, 'Our Lord, why did You not send to us a messenger that we might have followed Your verses before we were humiliated and disgraced?'
قُلْ كُلٌّۭ مُّتَرَبِّصٌۭ فَتَرَبَّصُوا۟ ۖ فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلصِّرَٰطِ ٱلسَّوِىِّ وَمَنِ ٱهْتَدَىٰ
﴿١٣٦﴾
Say, 'Each of you awaits; so await. You will know who are the companions of the straight path and who are guided.'
