| Sura 53 Aya 1 to 62 | |||
| 1 | [ 53: 1 ] I swear by the star when it goes down. | ||
| 2 | [ 53: 2 ] Your companion does not err, nor does he go astray; | ||
| 3 | [ 53: 3 ] Nor does he speak out of desire. | ||
| 4 | [ 53: 4 ] It is naught but revelation that is revealed, | ||
| 5 | [ 53: 5 ] The Lord of Mighty Power has taught him, | ||
| 6 | [ 53: 6 ] The Lord of Strength; so he attained completion, | ||
| 7 | [ 53: 7 ] And he is in the highest part of the horizon. | ||
| 8 | [ 53: 8 ] Then he drew near, then he bowed | ||
| 9 | [ 53: 9 ] So he was the measure of two bows or closer still. | ||
| 10 | [ 53: 10 ] And He revealed to His servant what He revealed. | ||
| 11 | [ 53: 11 ] The heart was not untrue in ( making him see ) what he saw. | ||
| 12 | [ 53: 12 ] What! do you then dispute with him as to what he saw? | ||
| 13 | [ 53: 13 ] And certainly he saw him in another descent, | ||
| 14 | [ 53: 14 ] At the farthest lote-tree; | ||
| 15 | [ 53: 15 ] Near which is the garden, the place to be resorted to. | ||
| 16 | [ 53: 16 ] When that which covers covered the lote-tree; | ||
| 17 | [ 53: 17 ] The eye did not turn aside, nor did it exceed the limit. | ||
| 18 | [ 53: 18 ] Certainly he saw of the greatest signs of his Lord. | ||
| 19 | [ 53: 19 ] Have you then considered the Lat and the Uzza, | ||
| 20 | [ 53: 20 ] And Manat, the third, the last? | ||
| 21 | [ 53: 21 ] What! for you the males and for Him the females! | ||
| 22 | [ 53: 22 ] This indeed is an unjust division! | ||
| 23 | [ 53: 23 ] They are naught but names which you have named, you and your fathers; Allah has not sent for them any authority. They follow naught but conjecture and the low desires which ( their ) souls incline to; and certainly the guidance has come to them from their Lord. | ||
| 24 | [ 53: 24 ] Or shall man have what he wishes? | ||
| 25 | [ 53: 25 ] Nay! for Allah is the hereafter and the former ( life ). | ||
| 26 | [ 53: 26 ] And how many an angel is there in the heavens whose intercession does not avail at all except after Allah has given permission to whom He pleases and chooses. | ||
| 27 | [ 53: 27 ] Most surely they who do not believe in the hereafter name the angels with female names. | ||
| 28 | [ 53: 28 ] And they have no knowledge of it; they do not follow anything but conjecture, and surely conjecture does not avail against the truth at all. | ||
| 29 | [ 53: 29 ] Therefore turn aside from him who turns his back upon Our reminder and does not desire anything but this world's life. | ||
| 30 | [ 53: 30 ] That is their goal of knowledge; surely your Lord knows best him who goes astray from His path and He knows best him who follows the right direction. | ||
| 31 | [ 53: 31 ] And Allah's is what is in the heavens and what is in the earth, that He may reward those who do evil according to what they do, and ( that ) He may reward those who do good with goodness. | ||
| 32 | [ 53: 32 ] Those who keep aloof from the great sins and the indecencies but the passing idea; surely your Lord is liberal in forgiving. He knows you best when He brings you forth from the earth and when you are embryos in the wombs of your mothers; therefore do not attribute purity to your souls; He knows him best who guards ( against evil ). | ||
| 33 | [ 53: 33 ] Have you then seen him who turns his back? | ||
| 34 | [ 53: 34 ] And gives a little and ( then ) withholds. | ||
| 35 | [ 53: 35 ] Has he the knowledge of the unseen so that he can see? | ||
| 36 | [ 53: 36 ] Or, has he not been informed of what is in the scriptures of Musa? | ||
| 37 | [ 53: 37 ] And ( of ) Ibrahim who fulfilled ( the commandments ): | ||
| 38 | [ 53: 38 ] That no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another- | ||
| 39 | [ 53: 39 ] And that man shall have nothing but what he strives for- | ||
| 40 | [ 53: 40 ] And that his striving shall soon be seen- | ||
| 41 | [ 53: 41 ] Then shall he be rewarded for it with the fullest reward- | ||
| 42 | [ 53: 42 ] And that to your Lord is the goal- | ||
| 43 | [ 53: 43 ] And that He it is Who makes ( men ) laugh and makes ( them ) weep; | ||
| 44 | [ 53: 44 ] And that He it is Who causes death and gives life- | ||
| 45 | [ 53: 45 ] And that He created pairs, the male and the female | ||
| 46 | [ 53: 46 ] From the small seed when it is adapted | ||
| 47 | [ 53: 47 ] And that on Him is the bringing forth a second time; | ||
| 48 | [ 53: 48 ] And that He it is Who enriches and gives to hold; | ||
| 49 | [ 53: 49 ] And that He is the Lord of the Sirius; | ||
| 50 | [ 53: 50 ] And that He did destroy the Ad of old | ||
| 51 | [ 53: 51 ] And Samood, so He spared not | ||
| 52 | [ 53: 52 ] And the people of Nuh before; surely they were most unjust and inordinate; | ||
| 53 | [ 53: 53 ] And the overthrown cities did He overthrow, | ||
| 54 | [ 53: 54 ] So there covered them that which covered. | ||
| 55 | [ 53: 55 ] Which of your Lord's benefits will you then dispute about? | ||
| 56 | [ 53: 56 ] This is a warner of the warners of old. | ||
| 57 | [ 53: 57 ] The near event draws nigh. | ||
| 58 | [ 53: 58 ] There shall be none besides Allah to remove it. | ||
| 59 | [ 53: 59 ] Do you then wonder at this announcement? | ||
| 60 | [ 53: 60 ] And will you laugh and not weep? | ||
| 61 | [ 53: 61 ] While you are indulging in varieties. | ||
| 62 | [ 53: 62 ] So make obeisance to Allah and serve ( Him ). | ||
