Sura 36: YA-SEEN (YA-SEEN) - Juz' 22, 23 - Translation Qarib

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
يس ﴿۱﴾
YaSeen. (1)
وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكِيمِ ﴿۲﴾
By the Wise Koran, (2)
إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿۳﴾
you (Prophet Muhammad) are truly among the Messengers sent (3)
عَلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ ﴿۴﴾
upon a Straight Path. (4)
تَنْزِيلَ الْعَزِيزِ الرَّحِيمِ ﴿۵﴾
The sending down of the Mighty, the Most Merciful (5)
لِتُنْذِرَ قَوْمًا مَا أُنْذِرَ آبَاؤُهُمْ فَهُمْ غَافِلُونَ ﴿۶﴾
so that you may warn a people whose fathers were not warned, and so were heedless. (6)
لَقَدْ حَقَّ الْقَوْلُ عَلَى أَكْثَرِهِمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿۷﴾
The Phrase has become obligatory upon most of them, yet they do not believe. (7)
إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا فِي أَعْنَاقِهِمْ أَغْلَالًا فَهِيَ إِلَى الْأَذْقَانِ فَهُمْ مُقْمَحُونَ ﴿۸﴾
We have bound their necks with fetters up to their chin, so that their heads are raised and cannot be lowered. (8)
وَجَعَلْنَا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّا فَأَغْشَيْنَاهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ ﴿۹﴾
We have set a barrier before them and a barrier behind them, and, We have covered them so that they do not see. (9)
وَسَوَاءٌ عَلَيْهِمْ أَأَنْذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ تُنْذِرْهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿۱۰﴾
It is the same whether you have warned them or you have not warned them, they do not believe. (10)
إِنَّمَا تُنْذِرُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الذِّكْرَ وَخَشِيَ الرَّحْمَنَ بِالْغَيْبِ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ وَأَجْرٍ كَرِيمٍ ﴿۱۱﴾
You only warn he who follows the Remembrance and fears the Merciful in the Unseen. Give to him glad tidings of forgiveness and a generous wage. (11)
إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْيِي الْمَوْتَى وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا وَآثَارَهُمْ وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ فِي إِمَامٍ مُبِينٍ ﴿۱۲﴾
Surely, it is We who revive the dead and write down what they have forwarded and what they have left behind; We have counted everything in a Clear Book. (12)
وَاضْرِبْ لَهُمْ مَثَلًا أَصْحَابَ الْقَرْيَةِ إِذْ جَاءَهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ ﴿۱۳﴾
Give to them a parable; to the people of the village there came Messengers, (13)
إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْهِمُ اثْنَيْنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا إِلَيْكُمْ مُرْسَلُونَ ﴿۱۴﴾
We sent to them two, but they belied them so We reinforced them with a third. They said: 'We have surely been sent as Messengers to you. ' (14)
قَالُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُنَا وَمَا أَنْزَلَ الرَّحْمَنُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا تَكْذِبُونَ ﴿۱۵﴾
But they said: 'You are only humans like ourselves. The Merciful has not sent down anything, your speech is but lies! ' (15)
قَالُوا رَبُّنَا يَعْلَمُ إِنَّا إِلَيْكُمْ لَمُرْسَلُونَ ﴿۱۶﴾
They said: 'Our Lord knows that we are Messengers to you. (16)
وَمَا عَلَيْنَا إِلَّا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ ﴿۱۷﴾
And it is only for us to deliver a Clear Message. ' (17)
قَالُوا إِنَّا تَطَيَّرْنَا بِكُمْ لَئِنْ لَمْ تَنْتَهُوا لَنَرْجُمَنَّكُمْ وَلَيَمَسَّنَّكُمْ مِنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ﴿۱۸﴾
They answered: 'We predict evil of you. If you do not desist, we will stone you and a painful punishment from us will befall you. ' (18)
قَالُوا طَائِرُكُمْ مَعَكُمْ أَئِنْ ذُكِّرْتُمْ بَلْ أَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ مُسْرِفُونَ ﴿۱۹﴾
They said: 'Your prediction is with you, if you are reminded. Surely, you are but a wayward nation. ' (19)
وَجَاءَ مِنْ أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٌ يَسْعَى قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ اتَّبِعُوا الْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿۲۰﴾
Then, a man came running from the furthest part of the village 'My nation, ' he said, 'follow the Messengers, (20)
اتَّبِعُوا مَنْ لَا يَسْأَلُكُمْ أَجْرًا وَهُمْ مُهْتَدُونَ ﴿۲۱﴾
follow those who ask no wage of you and are rightly guided. (21)
وَمَا لِيَ لَا أَعْبُدُ الَّذِي فَطَرَنِي وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ ﴿۲۲﴾
Why should I not worship Him who has originated me and to whom you shall all be returned? (22)
أَأَتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ آلِهَةً إِنْ يُرِدْنِ الرَّحْمَنُ بِضُرٍّ لَا تُغْنِ عَنِّي شَفَاعَتُهُمْ شَيْئًا وَلَا يُنْقِذُونِ ﴿۲۳﴾
What, shall I take, other than Him, gods whose intercession, if the Merciful desires to afflict me, cannot help me at all, and they will never save me? (23)
إِنِّي إِذًا لَفِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ ﴿۲۴﴾
Surely, I should then be in clear error. (24)
إِنِّي آمَنْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ فَاسْمَعُونِ ﴿۲۵﴾
I believe in your Lord, so hear me. ' (25)
قِيلَ ادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ يَا لَيْتَ قَوْمِي يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿۲۶﴾
It was said (to him): 'Enter Paradise, ' and he said: 'Would that my people knew (26)
بِمَا غَفَرَ لِي رَبِّي وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ الْمُكْرَمِينَ ﴿۲۷﴾
that my Lord has forgiven me, and caused me to be amongst the receivers of generosity. ' (27)
وَمَا أَنْزَلْنَا عَلَى قَوْمِهِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ جُنْدٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَمَا كُنَّا مُنْزِلِينَ ﴿۲۸﴾
And We did not send down to his nation after him any army from heaven, neither would We send any down. (28)
إِنْ كَانَتْ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ خَامِدُونَ ﴿۲۹﴾
It was only one Shout and they were silent, still. (29)
يَا حَسْرَةً عَلَى الْعِبَادِ مَا يَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ ﴿۳۰﴾
Woe, for those (unbelieving) worshipers! They mocked every Messenger that came to them. (30)
أَلَمْ يَرَوْا كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُمْ مِنَ الْقُرُونِ أَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ ﴿۳۱﴾
Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them? They shall never return to them, (31)
وَإِنْ كُلٌّ لَمَّا جَمِيعٌ لَدَيْنَا مُحْضَرُونَ ﴿۳۲﴾
all shall be arraigned before Us. (32)
وَآيَةٌ لَهُمُ الْأَرْضُ الْمَيْتَةُ أَحْيَيْنَاهَا وَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهَا حَبًّا فَمِنْهُ يَأْكُلُونَ ﴿۳۳﴾
The dead land is a sign for them. We revive it, and from it produce grain from which they eat. (33)
وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا جَنَّاتٍ مِنْ نَخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَابٍ وَفَجَّرْنَا فِيهَا مِنَ الْعُيُونِ ﴿۳۴﴾
And there We made gardens of palms and vines, and in it We caused fountains to gush forth, (34)
لِيَأْكُلُوا مِنْ ثَمَرِهِ وَمَا عَمِلَتْهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُونَ ﴿۳۵﴾
so that they might eat of its fruit and the labor of their hands. Will they not give thanks? (35)
سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْأَزْوَاجَ كُلَّهَا مِمَّا تُنْبِتُ الْأَرْضُ وَمِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَمِمَّا لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿۳۶﴾
Exaltations to Him who created pairs of all the things the earth produces and of themselves, and that of which they have no knowledge. (36)
وَآيَةٌ لَهُمُ اللَّيْلُ نَسْلَخُ مِنْهُ النَّهَارَ فَإِذَا هُمْ مُظْلِمُونَ ﴿۳۷﴾
A sign for them is the night. From it We withdraw the day and they are in darkness. (37)
وَالشَّمْسُ تَجْرِي لِمُسْتَقَرٍّ لَهَا ذَلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ ﴿۳۸﴾
The sun runs to its fixed restingplace; that is the decree of the Almighty, the Knower. (38)
وَالْقَمَرَ قَدَّرْنَاهُ مَنَازِلَ حَتَّى عَادَ كَالْعُرْجُونِ الْقَدِيمِ ﴿۳۹﴾
And the moon, We have determined it in phases till it returns like an old palmbranch. (39)
لَا الشَّمْسُ يَنْبَغِي لَهَا أَنْ تُدْرِكَ الْقَمَرَ وَلَا اللَّيْلُ سَابِقُ النَّهَارِ وَكُلٌّ فِي فَلَكٍ يَسْبَحُونَ ﴿۴۰﴾
The sun shall not outstrip the moon, nor shall the night outstrip the day. Each is floating in an orbit. (40)
وَآيَةٌ لَهُمْ أَنَّا حَمَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ فِي الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ ﴿۴۱﴾
And a sign for them is that We carried their offspring in the laden Ark (of Noah). (41)
وَخَلَقْنَا لَهُمْ مِنْ مِثْلِهِ مَا يَرْكَبُونَ ﴿۴۲﴾
And We have created for them the like of it in which they board. (42)
وَإِنْ نَشَأْ نُغْرِقْهُمْ فَلَا صَرِيخَ لَهُمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُنْقَذُونَ ﴿۴۳﴾
We drown them if We will, then they have none to cry to, nor can they be saved, (43)
إِلَّا رَحْمَةً مِنَّا وَمَتَاعًا إِلَى حِينٍ ﴿۴۴﴾
except through Our Mercy and as enjoyment for awhile. (44)
وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ اتَّقُوا مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَمَا خَلْفَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ ﴿۴۵﴾
When it is said to them: 'Have fear of that which is before you and behind you in order that you find mercy. ' (45)
وَمَا تَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ آيَةٍ مِنْ آيَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَّا كَانُوا عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ ﴿۴۶﴾
Yet there never comes to them any sign of their Lord's signs, but they turn away from it. (46)
وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ أَنْفِقُوا مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللَّهُ قَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَنُطْعِمُ مَنْ لَوْ يَشَاءُ اللَّهُ أَطْعَمَهُ إِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ ﴿۴۷﴾
And when it is said to them: 'Spend of that which Allah has given you, ' the unbelievers say to the believers: 'Are we to feed those whom Allah can feed if He chooses? Surely, you are only in clear error. ' (47)
وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَى هَذَا الْوَعْدُ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ ﴿۴۸﴾
They also say: 'When will this promise be, if what you say is true? ' (48)
مَا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً تَأْخُذُهُمْ وَهُمْ يَخِصِّمُونَ ﴿۴۹﴾
They await but one Shout, which will seize them while they dispute. (49)
فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ تَوْصِيَةً وَلَا إِلَى أَهْلِهِمْ يَرْجِعُونَ ﴿۵۰﴾
Then they will be unable to make a will, nor shall they return to their kinsmen. (50)
وَنُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ فَإِذَا هُمْ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ إِلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَنْسِلُونَ ﴿۵۱﴾
And the Horn is blown, and, from the graves they rush forth to their Lord. (51)
قَالُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا مَنْ بَعَثَنَا مِنْ مَرْقَدِنَا هَذَا مَا وَعَدَ الرَّحْمَنُ وَصَدَقَ الْمُرْسَلُونَ ﴿۵۲﴾
'Woe for us! ' they will say. 'Who has roused us from our sleepingplace? This is what the Merciful promised; the Messengers have spoken the truth! ' (52)
إِنْ كَانَتْ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ جَمِيعٌ لَدَيْنَا مُحْضَرُونَ ﴿۵۳﴾
And it is but one Shout and they are all arraigned before Us. (53)
فَالْيَوْمَ لَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْئًا وَلَا تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿۵۴﴾
Today, no soul shall be wronged a thing. You shall not be recompensed except according to your deeds. (54)
إِنَّ أَصْحَابَ الْجَنَّةِ الْيَوْمَ فِي شُغُلٍ فَاكِهُونَ ﴿۵۵﴾
Indeed, the companions of the Garden are this Day busy in their rejoicing. (55)
هُمْ وَأَزْوَاجُهُمْ فِي ظِلَالٍ عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ مُتَّكِئُونَ ﴿۵۶﴾
Together with their spouses, they shall recline on couches in the shade. (56)
لَهُمْ فِيهَا فَاكِهَةٌ وَلَهُمْ مَا يَدَّعُونَ ﴿۵۷﴾
They shall have fruits and all that they call for. (57)
سَلَامٌ قَوْلًا مِنْ رَبٍّ رَحِيمٍ ﴿۵۸﴾
Peace, a saying from the Most Merciful Lord. (58)
وَامْتَازُوا الْيَوْمَ أَيُّهَا الْمُجْرِمُونَ ﴿۵۹﴾
(And He will say): 'Distance yourselves, O sinners, this Day. (59)
أَلَمْ أَعْهَدْ إِلَيْكُمْ يَا بَنِي آدَمَ أَنْ لَا تَعْبُدُوا الشَّيْطَانَ إِنَّهُ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُبِينٌ ﴿۶۰﴾
Children of Adam, did I not make a covenant with you, that you should not worship satan he is surely a clear enemy to you (60)
وَأَنِ اعْبُدُونِي هَذَا صِرَاطٌ مُسْتَقِيمٌ ﴿۶۱﴾
and that you worship Me? Surely, that is the Straight Path. (61)
وَلَقَدْ أَضَلَّ مِنْكُمْ جِبِلًّا كَثِيرًا أَفَلَمْ تَكُونُوا تَعْقِلُونَ ﴿۶۲﴾
Yet he has led many a host of you astray, did you not understand? (62)
هَذِهِ جَهَنَّمُ الَّتِي كُنْتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ ﴿۶۳﴾
This, then is Gehenna (Hell), that which you were promised. (63)
اصْلَوْهَا الْيَوْمَ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَكْفُرُونَ ﴿۶۴﴾
Roast well therein this Day for you were unbelievers. ' (64)
الْيَوْمَ نَخْتِمُ عَلَى أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَتُكَلِّمُنَا أَيْدِيهِمْ وَتَشْهَدُ أَرْجُلُهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ ﴿۶۵﴾
This Day We set a seal on their mouths and their hands speak to Us, and their feet will testify to their earnings. (65)
وَلَوْ نَشَاءُ لَطَمَسْنَا عَلَى أَعْيُنِهِمْ فَاسْتَبَقُوا الصِّرَاطَ فَأَنَّى يُبْصِرُونَ ﴿۶۶﴾
Had it been Our will We would have obliterated their sight so that they raced to the Path. But, how would they see? (66)
وَلَوْ نَشَاءُ لَمَسَخْنَاهُمْ عَلَى مَكَانَتِهِمْ فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا مُضِيًّا وَلَا يَرْجِعُونَ ﴿۶۷﴾
Had it been Our will We would have transmuted them (into monkeys, pigs and stones) where they were, so that they could neither go forward nor yet return. (67)
وَمَنْ نُعَمِّرْهُ نُنَكِّسْهُ فِي الْخَلْقِ أَفَلَا يَعْقِلُونَ ﴿۶۸﴾
To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not understand? (68)
وَمَا عَلَّمْنَاهُ الشِّعْرَ وَمَا يَنْبَغِي لَهُ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ وَقُرْآنٌ مُبِينٌ ﴿۶۹﴾
We have not taught him (Prophet Muhammad) poetry, nor does it become him. This is only a Remembrance and a Clear Holy Reading (Koran) (69)
لِيُنْذِرَ مَنْ كَانَ حَيًّا وَيَحِقَّ الْقَوْلُ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ ﴿۷۰﴾
that he may warn the living, and so that Judgement may be passed against the unbelievers. (70)
أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا أَنَّا خَلَقْنَا لَهُمْ مِمَّا عَمِلَتْ أَيْدِينَا أَنْعَامًا فَهُمْ لَهَا مَالِكُونَ ﴿۷۱﴾
Have they not seen how We have created for them the cattle they master with Our Hands? (71)
وَذَلَّلْنَاهَا لَهُمْ فَمِنْهَا رَكُوبُهُمْ وَمِنْهَا يَأْكُلُونَ ﴿۷۲﴾
We have subdued these to them, and some of them they ride and some of them they eat; (72)
وَلَهُمْ فِيهَا مَنَافِعُ وَمَشَارِبُ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُونَ ﴿۷۳﴾
they also have other uses in them and drinks. What, will they not give thanks! (73)
وَاتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ آلِهَةً لَعَلَّهُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ ﴿۷۴﴾
And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might helped! (74)
لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَهُمْ وَهُمْ لَهُمْ جُنْدٌ مُحْضَرُونَ ﴿۷۵﴾
They cannot help them, for them (the socalled) army are brought (with them to Hell). (75)
فَلَا يَحْزُنْكَ قَوْلُهُمْ إِنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ ﴿۷۶﴾
So do not let their sayings grieve you. Surely, We have knowledge of what they hide and all that they reveal. (76)
أَوَلَمْ يَرَ الْإِنْسَانُ أَنَّا خَلَقْنَاهُ مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٌ مُبِينٌ ﴿۷۷﴾
Has the human not seen how We created him from a drop (of sperm)? Yet he is a clear opponent. (77)
وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلًا وَنَسِيَ خَلْقَهُ قَالَ مَنْ يُحْيِي الْعِظَامَ وَهِيَ رَمِيمٌ ﴿۷۸﴾
And he has struck for Us a parable, and forgotten his own creation. He asks: 'Who will quicken the bones after they have decayed? ' (78)
قُلْ يُحْيِيهَا الَّذِي أَنْشَأَهَا أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ خَلْقٍ عَلِيمٌ ﴿۷۹﴾
Say: 'He will quicken them who originated them the first time; He has knowledge of every creation; (79)
الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمْ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ الْأَخْضَرِ نَارًا فَإِذَا أَنْتُمْ مِنْهُ تُوقِدُونَ ﴿۸۰﴾
who has made fire for you from the green tree with which you kindle. ' (80)
أَوَلَيْسَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَى أَنْ يَخْلُقَ مِثْلَهُمْ بَلَى وَهُوَ الْخَلَّاقُ الْعَلِيمُ ﴿۸۱﴾
Is He who created the heavens and the earth unable to create their like? Yes, indeed, He is the Creator, the Knower. (81)
إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَنْ يَقُولَ لَهُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ ﴿۸۲﴾
When He wills a thing, His command is to say to it 'Be', and it is! (82)
فَسُبْحَانَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ ﴿۸۳﴾
Exaltations to Him in whose Hand is the Kingdom of all things, and to Him you will be returned. (83)
