Al-Ladhī Khalaqa Al-Mawta Wa Al-Ĥayāata Liyabluwakum 'Ayyukum 'Aĥsanu `Amalāan Wa Huwa Al-`Azīzu Al-Ghafūru

[He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving

وَلَقَدۡ زَيَّنَّا السَّمَآءَ الدُّنۡيَا بِمَصَابِيۡحَ وَجَعَلۡنٰهَا رُجُوۡمًا لِّلشَّيٰطِيۡنِ وَاَعۡتَدۡنَا لَهُمۡ عَذَابَ السَّعِيۡرِ

Wa Laqad Zayyannā As-Samā'a Ad-Dunyā Bimaşābīĥa Wa Ja`alnāhā Rujūmāan Lilshayāţīni Wa 'A`tadnā Lahum `Adhāba As-Sa`īri

And We have certainly beautified the nearest heaven with stars and have made [from] them what is thrown at the devils and have prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze

Takādu Tamayyazu Mina Al-Ghayži Kullamā 'Ulqiya Fīhā Fawjun Sa'alahum Khazanatuhā 'Alam Ya'tikum Nadhīrun

It almost bursts with rage. Every time a company is thrown into it, its keepers ask them, "Did there not come to you a warner

٩

قَالُوۡا بَلٰي قَدۡ جَآءَنَا نَذِيۡرٌ ࣢ۙ فَكَذَّبۡنَا وَقُلۡنَا مَا نَزَّلَ اللّٰهُ مِنۡ شَيۡءٍۚۖ اِنۡ اَنۡتُمۡ اِلَّا فِيۡ ضَلٰلٍ كَبِيۡرٍ

Huwa Al-Ladhī Ja`ala Lakumu Al-'Arđa Dhalūlāan Fāmshū Fī Manākibihā Wa Kulū Min Rizqihi Wa 'Ilayhi An-Nushūru

It is He who made the earth tame for you - so walk among its slopes and eat of His provision - and to Him is the resurrection

١٦

ءَاَمِنۡتُمۡ مَّنۡ فِي السَّمَآءِ اَنۡ يَّخۡسِفَ بِكُمُ الۡاَرۡضَ فَاِذَا هِيَ تَمُوۡرُۙ‏

A'amintum Man Fī As-Samā'i 'An Yakhsifa Bikumu Al-'Arđa Fa'idhā Hiya Tamūru

Do you feel secure that He who [holds authority] in the heaven would not cause the earth to swallow you and suddenly it would sway

١٧

اَمۡ اَمِنۡتُمۡ مَّنۡ فِي السَّمَآءِ اَنۡ يُّرۡسِلَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ حَاصِبًاؕ فَسَتَعۡلَمُوۡنَ كَيۡفَ نَذِيۡرِ

Wa Laqad Kadhaba Al-Ladhīna Min Qablihim Fakayfa Kāna Nakīri

And already had those before them denied, and how [terrible] was My reproach

١٩

اَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡا اِلَي الطَّيۡرِ فَوۡقَهُمۡ صٰٓفّٰتٍ وَّيَقۡبِضۡنَؔۘؕ مَا يُمۡسِكُهُنَّ اِلَّا الرَّحۡمٰنُؕ اِنَّهٗ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءٍۭ بَصِيۡرٌ

Awalam Yaraw 'Ilá Aţ-Ţayri Fawqahum Şāffātin Wa Yaqbiđna Mā Yumsikuhunna 'Illā Ar-Raĥmānu 'Innahu Bikulli Shay'in Başīrun

Do they not see the birds above them with wings outspread and [sometimes] folded in? None holds them [aloft] except the Most Merciful. Indeed He is, of all things, Seeing

٢٠

اَمَّنۡ هٰذَا الَّذِيۡ هُوَ جُنۡدٌ لَّكُمۡ يَنۡصُرُكُمۡ مِّنۡ دُوۡنِ الرَّحۡمٰنِؕ اِنِ الۡكٰفِرُوۡنَ اِلَّا فِيۡ غُرُوۡرٍۚ‏

٢٢

اَفَمَنۡ يَّمۡشِيۡ مُكِبًّا عَلٰي وَجۡهِهٖ٘ اَهۡدٰ٘ي اَمَّنۡ يَّمۡشِيۡ سَوِيًّا عَلٰي صِرَاطٍ مُّسۡتَقِيۡمٍ

Afaman Yamshī Mukibbāan `Alá Wajhihi 'Ahdá 'Amman Yamshī Sawīyāan `Alá Şirāţin Mustaqīmin

And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful

Qul 'Innamā Al-`Ilmu `Inda Allāhi Wa 'Innamā 'Anā Nadhīrun Mubīnun
