Sura 38: SAD (THE LETTER SAD) - Juz' 23 - Translation Qarib

وَوَهَبْنَا لِدَاوُودَ سُلَيْمَانَ نِعْمَ الْعَبْدُ إِنَّهُ أَوَّابٌ ﴿۳۰﴾
We gave Solomon to David; and he was an excellent worshiper, he was penitent. (30)
إِذْ عُرِضَ عَلَيْهِ بِالْعَشِيِّ الصَّافِنَاتُ الْجِيَادُ ﴿۳۱﴾
When his dressage steeds were presented to him in the evening, (31)
فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَحْبَبْتُ حُبَّ الْخَيْرِ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّي حَتَّى تَوَارَتْ بِالْحِجَابِ ﴿۳۲﴾
he said: 'Indeed I have loved the love of good things better than the remembrance of my Lord until the sun has vanished behind a veil. (32)
رُدُّوهَا عَلَيَّ فَطَفِقَ مَسْحًا بِالسُّوقِ وَالْأَعْنَاقِ ﴿۳۳﴾
Bring them back to me! ' And he hacked their legs and necks (slaughtering them for Allah). (33)
وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا سُلَيْمَانَ وَأَلْقَيْنَا عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ جَسَدًا ثُمَّ أَنَابَ ﴿۳۴﴾
Indeed, We tried Solomon and placed a body (of a child) upon his throne, then he repented. (34)
قَالَ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَهَبْ لِي مُلْكًا لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْوَهَّابُ ﴿۳۵﴾
He said: 'Forgive me my Lord, and give me a kingdom the like of which will not befall any after me, surely, You are the Giver. ' (35)
فَسَخَّرْنَا لَهُ الرِّيحَ تَجْرِي بِأَمْرِهِ رُخَاءً حَيْثُ أَصَابَ ﴿۳۶﴾
So We subjected the wind to him, so that it ran softly by his command wherever he wished; (36)
وَالشَّيَاطِينَ كُلَّ بَنَّاءٍ وَغَوَّاصٍ ﴿۳۷﴾
and the satans, every builder and diver (37)
وَآخَرِينَ مُقَرَّنِينَ فِي الْأَصْفَادِ ﴿۳۸﴾
and others joined together by (iron) fetters. (38)
هَذَا عَطَاؤُنَا فَامْنُنْ أَوْ أَمْسِكْ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ ﴿۳۹﴾
'This is Our gift, give or withhold without reckoning. ' (39)
