الحجر
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
الٓر ۚ تِلْكَ ءَايَـٰتُ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ وَقُرْءَانٍ مُّبِينٍ ayah 1
Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the Verses of the Book; a Quran that makes things clear.
رُّبَمَا يَوَدُّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَوْ كَانُوا۟ مُسْلِمِينَ ayah 2
Perhaps those who disbelieve would like to become Muslims.
ذَرْهُمْ يَأْكُلُوا۟ وَيَتَمَتَّعُوا۟ وَيُلْهِهِمُ ٱلْأَمَلُ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ ayah 3
Leave them to eat, and enjoy, and be lulled by hope. They will find out.
وَمَآ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا وَلَهَا كِتَابٌ مَّعْلُومٌ ayah 4
We have never destroyed a town unless it had a set time.
مَّا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ ayah 5
No nation can bring its time forward, nor can they delay it.
وَقَالُوا۟ يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِى نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلذِّكْرُ إِنَّكَ لَمَجْنُونٌ ayah 6
And they said, “O you who received the message, you are insane.”
لَّوْ مَا تَأْتِينَا بِٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ ayah 7
Why do you not bring us the angels, if you are truthful?”
مَا نُنَزِّلُ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَمَا كَانُوٓا۟ إِذًا مُّنظَرِينَ ayah 8
We do not send the angels down except with reason, and they will not be held back.
إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا ٱلذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُۥ لَحَـٰفِظُونَ ayah 9
Surely We revealed the Message, and We will surely preserve it.
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ فِى شِيَعِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ayah 10
We sent others before you, to the former communities.
وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ ayah 11
But no messenger came to them, but they ridiculed him.
كَذَٰلِكَ نَسْلُكُهُۥ فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ ayah 12
Thus We slip it into the hearts of the guilty.
لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِۦ ۖ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ سُنَّةُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ayah 13
They do not believe in it, though the ways of the ancients have passed away.
وَلَوْ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَظَلُّوا۟ فِيهِ يَعْرُجُونَ ayah 14
Even if We opened for them a gateway into the sky, and they began to ascend through it.
لَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّمَا سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَـٰرُنَا بَلْ نَحْنُ قَوْمٌ مَّسْحُورُونَ ayah 15
They would still say, “Our eyes are hallucinating; in fact, we are people bewitched.”
وَلَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ بُرُوجًا وَزَيَّنَّـٰهَا لِلنَّـٰظِرِينَ ayah 16
We placed constellations in the sky, and made them beautiful to the beholders.
وَحَفِظْنَـٰهَا مِن كُلِّ شَيْطَـٰنٍ رَّجِيمٍ ayah 17
And We guarded them from every outcast devil.
إِلَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَرَقَ ٱلسَّمْعَ فَأَتْبَعَهُۥ شِهَابٌ مُّبِينٌ ayah 18
Except one who steals a hearing, and is followed by a visible projectile.
وَٱلْأَرْضَ مَدَدْنَـٰهَا وَأَلْقَيْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ وَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ مَّوْزُونٍ ayah 19
We spread the earth, and placed stabilizers in it, and in it We grew all things in proper measure.
وَجَعَلْنَا لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَعَـٰيِشَ وَمَن لَّسْتُمْ لَهُۥ بِرَٰزِقِينَ ayah 20
And in it We created livelihoods for you, and for those for whom you are not the providers.
وَإِن مِّن شَىْءٍ إِلَّا عِندَنَا خَزَآئِنُهُۥ وَمَا نُنَزِّلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا بِقَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ ayah 21
There is not a thing but with Us are its stores, and We send it down only in precise measure.
وَأَرْسَلْنَا ٱلرِّيَـٰحَ لَوَٰقِحَ فَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَأَسْقَيْنَـٰكُمُوهُ وَمَآ أَنتُمْ لَهُۥ بِخَـٰزِنِينَ ayah 22
We send the fertilizing winds; and send down water from the sky, and give it to you to drink, and you are not the ones who store it.
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ نُحْىِۦ وَنُمِيتُ وَنَحْنُ ٱلْوَٰرِثُونَ ayah 23
It is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritors.
وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا ٱلْمُسْتَقْدِمِينَ مِنكُمْ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا ٱلْمُسْتَـْٔخِرِينَ ayah 24
And We know those of you who go forward, and We know those who lag behind.
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ حَكِيمٌ عَلِيمٌ ayah 25
It is your Lord who will gather them together. He is the Wise, the Knowing.
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ مِن صَلْصَـٰلٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ ayah 26
We created the human being from clay, from molded mud.
وَٱلْجَآنَّ خَلَقْنَـٰهُ مِن قَبْلُ مِن نَّارِ ٱلسَّمُومِ ayah 27
And the jinn We created before, from piercing fire.
وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ إِنِّى خَـٰلِقٌۢ بَشَرًا مِّن صَلْصَـٰلٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ ayah 28
Your Lord said to the angels, “I am creating a human being from clay, from molded mud.”
فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُۥ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِى فَقَعُوا۟ لَهُۥ سَـٰجِدِينَ ayah 29
“When I have formed him, and breathed into him of My spirit, fall down prostrating before him.”
فَسَجَدَ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ كُلُّهُمْ أَجْمَعُونَ ayah 30
So the angels prostrated themselves, all together.
إِلَّآ إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونَ مَعَ ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ ayah 31
Except for Satan. He refused to be among those who prostrated themselves.
قَالَ يَـٰٓإِبْلِيسُ مَا لَكَ أَلَّا تَكُونَ مَعَ ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ ayah 32
He said, “O Satan, what kept you from being among those who prostrated themselves?”
قَالَ لَمْ أَكُن لِّأَسْجُدَ لِبَشَرٍ خَلَقْتَهُۥ مِن صَلْصَـٰلٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ ayah 33
He said, “I am not about to prostrate myself before a human being, whom You created from clay, from molded mud.”
قَالَ فَٱخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ ayah 34
He said, “Then get out of here, for you are an outcast”.
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكَ ٱللَّعْنَةَ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ ayah 35
“And the curse will be upon you until the Day of Judgment.”
قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرْنِىٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ ayah 36
He said, “My Lord, reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected.”
قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْمُنظَرِينَ ayah 37
He said, “You are of those reprieved.”
إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْوَقْتِ ٱلْمَعْلُومِ ayah 38
“Until the Day of the time appointed.”
قَالَ رَبِّ بِمَآ أَغْوَيْتَنِى لَأُزَيِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَأُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ayah 39
He said, “My Lord, since You have lured me away, I will glamorize for them on earth, and I will lure them all away.”
إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنْهُمُ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ ayah 40
“Except for Your sincere servants among them.”
قَالَ هَـٰذَا صِرَٰطٌ عَلَىَّ مُسْتَقِيمٌ ayah 41
He said, “This is a right way with Me.”
إِنَّ عِبَادِى لَيْسَ لَكَ عَلَيْهِمْ سُلْطَـٰنٌ إِلَّا مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلْغَاوِينَ ayah 42
“Over My servants you have no authority, except for the sinners who follow you.”
وَإِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمَوْعِدُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ayah 43
And Hell is the meeting-place for them all.
لَهَا سَبْعَةُ أَبْوَٰبٍ لِّكُلِّ بَابٍ مِّنْهُمْ جُزْءٌ مَّقْسُومٌ ayah 44
“It has seven doors; for each door is an assigned class.”
إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّـٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ ayah 45
But the righteous will be in gardens with springs.
ٱدْخُلُوهَا بِسَلَـٰمٍ ءَامِنِينَ ayah 46
“Enter it in peace and security.”
وَنَزَعْنَا مَا فِى صُدُورِهِم مِّنْ غِلٍّ إِخْوَٰنًا عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مُّتَقَـٰبِلِينَ ayah 47
And We will remove all ill-feelings from their hearts—brothers and sisters, on couches facing one another.
لَا يَمَسُّهُمْ فِيهَا نَصَبٌ وَمَا هُم مِّنْهَا بِمُخْرَجِينَ ayah 48
No fatigue will ever touch them therein, nor will they be asked to leave it.
۞ نَبِّئْ عِبَادِىٓ أَنِّىٓ أَنَا ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ayah 49
Inform My servants that I am the Forgiver, the Merciful.
وَأَنَّ عَذَابِى هُوَ ٱلْعَذَابُ ٱلْأَلِيمُ ayah 50
And that My punishment is the painful punishment.
وَنَبِّئْهُمْ عَن ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ayah 51
And inform them of the guests of Abraham.
إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَـٰمًا قَالَ إِنَّا مِنكُمْ وَجِلُونَ ayah 52
When they entered upon him, and said, “Peace.” He said, “We are wary of you.”
قَالُوا۟ لَا تَوْجَلْ إِنَّا نُبَشِّرُكَ بِغُلَـٰمٍ عَلِيمٍ ayah 53
They said, “Do not fear; we bring you good news of a boy endowed with knowledge.”
قَالَ أَبَشَّرْتُمُونِى عَلَىٰٓ أَن مَّسَّنِىَ ٱلْكِبَرُ فَبِمَ تُبَشِّرُونَ ayah 54
He said, “Do you bring me good news, when old age has overtaken me? What good news do you bring?”
قَالُوا۟ بَشَّرْنَـٰكَ بِٱلْحَقِّ فَلَا تَكُن مِّنَ ٱلْقَـٰنِطِينَ ayah 55
They said, “We bring you good news in truth, so do not despair.”
قَالَ وَمَن يَقْنَطُ مِن رَّحْمَةِ رَبِّهِۦٓ إِلَّا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ ayah 56
He said, “And who despairs of his Lord’s mercy but the lost?”
قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ ayah 57
He said, “So what is your business, O envoys?”
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ ayah 58
They said, “We were sent to a sinful people.”
إِلَّآ ءَالَ لُوطٍ إِنَّا لَمُنَجُّوهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ayah 59
“Except for the family of Lot; we will save them all.”
إِلَّا ٱمْرَأَتَهُۥ قَدَّرْنَآ ۙ إِنَّهَا لَمِنَ ٱلْغَـٰبِرِينَ ayah 60
“Except for his wife.” We have determined that she will be of those who lag behind.
فَلَمَّا جَآءَ ءَالَ لُوطٍ ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ ayah 61
And when the envoys came to the family of Lot.
قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ ayah 62
He said, “You are a people unknown to me.”
قَالُوا۟ بَلْ جِئْنَـٰكَ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ ayah 63
They said, “We bring you what they have doubts about.”
وَأَتَيْنَـٰكَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَإِنَّا لَصَـٰدِقُونَ ayah 64
“We bring you the truth, and we are truthful.”
فَأَسْرِ بِأَهْلِكَ بِقِطْعٍ مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱتَّبِعْ أَدْبَـٰرَهُمْ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتْ مِنكُمْ أَحَدٌ وَٱمْضُوا۟ حَيْثُ تُؤْمَرُونَ ayah 65
“Travel with your family at the dead of the night, and follow up behind them, and let none of you look back, and proceed as commanded.”
وَقَضَيْنَآ إِلَيْهِ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْأَمْرَ أَنَّ دَابِرَ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ مَقْطُوعٌ مُّصْبِحِينَ ayah 66
And We informed him of Our decree: the last remnant of these will be uprooted by early morning.
وَجَآءَ أَهْلُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ يَسْتَبْشِرُونَ ayah 67
And the people of the town came joyfully.
قَالَ إِنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ ضَيْفِى فَلَا تَفْضَحُونِ ayah 68
He said, “These are my guests, so do not embarrass me.”
وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَلَا تُخْزُونِ ayah 69
“And fear Allah, and do not disgrace me.”
قَالُوٓا۟ أَوَلَمْ نَنْهَكَ عَنِ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ ayah 70
They said, “Did we not forbid you from strangers?”
قَالَ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ بَنَاتِىٓ إِن كُنتُمْ فَـٰعِلِينَ ayah 71
He said, “These are my daughters, if you must.”
لَعَمْرُكَ إِنَّهُمْ لَفِى سَكْرَتِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ ayah 72
By your life, they were blundering in their drunkenness.
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّيْحَةُ مُشْرِقِينَ ayah 73
So the Blast struck them at sunrise.
فَجَعَلْنَا عَـٰلِيَهَا سَافِلَهَا وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن سِجِّيلٍ ayah 74
And We turned it upside down, and rained down upon them stones of baked clay.
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍ لِّلْمُتَوَسِّمِينَ ayah 75
Surely in that are lessons for those who read signs.
وَإِنَّهَا لَبِسَبِيلٍ مُّقِيمٍ ayah 76
And it is on an existing road.
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ayah 77
Surely in that is a sign for the believers.
وَإِن كَانَ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْأَيْكَةِ لَظَـٰلِمِينَ ayah 78
The people of the Woods were also wrongdoers.
فَٱنتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ وَإِنَّهُمَا لَبِإِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ ayah 79
So We took revenge upon them. Both are clearly documented.
وَلَقَدْ كَذَّبَ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْحِجْرِ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ayah 80
The people of the Rock also rejected the messengers.
وَءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمْ ءَايَـٰتِنَا فَكَانُوا۟ عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ ayah 81
We gave them Our revelations, but they turned away from them.
وَكَانُوا۟ يَنْحِتُونَ مِنَ ٱلْجِبَالِ بُيُوتًا ءَامِنِينَ ayah 82
They used to carve homes in the mountains, feeling secure.
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّيْحَةُ مُصْبِحِينَ ayah 83
But the Blast struck them in the morning.
فَمَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ ayah 84
All they had acquired was of no avail to them.
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ ۗ وَإِنَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ لَـَٔاتِيَةٌ ۖ فَٱصْفَحِ ٱلصَّفْحَ ٱلْجَمِيلَ ayah 85
We did not create the heavens and the earth, and what lies between them, except with truth. The Hour is coming, so forgive with gracious forgiveness.
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ ٱلْخَلَّـٰقُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ayah 86
Your Lord is the All-Knowing Creator.
وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَـٰكَ سَبْعًا مِّنَ ٱلْمَثَانِى وَٱلْقُرْءَانَ ٱلْعَظِيمَ ayah 87
We have given you seven of the pairs, and the Grand Quran.
لَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَىٰ مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِۦٓ أَزْوَٰجًا مِّنْهُمْ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَٱخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ayah 88
Do not extend your eyes towards what We have bestowed on some couples of them to enjoy, and do not grieve over them, and lower your wing to the believers.
وَقُلْ إِنِّىٓ أَنَا ٱلنَّذِيرُ ٱلْمُبِينُ ayah 89
And say, “I am the clear warner.”
كَمَآ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَى ٱلْمُقْتَسِمِينَ ayah 90
Just as We sent down to the separatists.
ٱلَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا۟ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ عِضِينَ ayah 91
Those who made the Quran obsolete.
فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَسْـَٔلَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ayah 92
By your Lord, we will question them all.
عَمَّا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ ayah 93
About what they used to do.
فَٱصْدَعْ بِمَا تُؤْمَرُ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ ayah 94
So proclaim openly what you are commanded, and turn away from the polytheists.
إِنَّا كَفَيْنَـٰكَ ٱلْمُسْتَهْزِءِينَ ayah 95
We are enough for you against the mockers.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَجْعَلُونَ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۚ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ ayah 96
Those who set up another god with Allah. They will come to know.
وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ يَضِيقُ صَدْرُكَ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ ayah 97
We are aware that your heart is strained by what they say.
فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَكُن مِّنَ ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ ayah 98
So glorify the praise of your Lord, and be among those who bow down.
وَٱعْبُدْ رَبَّكَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِيَكَ ٱلْيَقِينُ ayah 99
And worship your Lord in order to attain certainty.
