98. ج23

    فَأَرَادُواْ بِهِۦ كَيۡدࣰ ا فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُمُ ٱلۡأَسۡفَلِينَ

    (This failing), they then sought a stratagem against him, but We made them the ones most humiliated

     O my Lord! Grant me a righteous (son)

101. ج23

     فَبَشَّرۡنَٰهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ حَلِيمࣲ‏

     So We gave him the good news of a boy ready to suffer and forbear

102. ج23

     فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ ٱلسَّعۡيَ قَالَ يَٰبُنَيَّ إِنِّيٓ أَرَىٰ فِي ٱلۡمَنَامِ أَنِّيٓ أَذۡبَحُكَ فَٱنظُرۡ مَاذَا تَرَىٰۚ قَالَ يَٰٓأَبَتِ ٱفۡعَلۡ مَا تُؤۡمَرُۖ سَتَجِدُنِيٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ

     Then, when (the son) reached (the age of) (serious) work with him, he said: "O my son! I see in vision that I offer thee in sacrifice: Now see what is thy view!" (The son) said: "O my father! Do as thou art commanded: thou will find me, if Allah so wills one practising Patience and Constancy

103. ج23

     فَلَمَّآ أَسۡلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلۡجَبِينِ

     So when they had both submitted their wills (to Allah), and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (for sacrifice)

104. ج23

     وَنَٰدَيۡنَٰهُ أَن يَٰٓإِبۡرَٰهِيمُ

     We called out to him "O Abraham

     Thou hast already fulfilled the vision!" - thus indeed do We reward those who do right

106. ج23

     إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلۡبَلَٰٓؤُاْ ٱلۡمُبِينُ

     For this was obviously a trial

107. ج23

     وَفَدَيۡنَٰهُ بِذِبۡحٍ عَظِيمࣲ‏

     And We ransomed him with a momentous sacrifice

108. ج23

     And We gave them the Book which helps to make things clear

118. ج23

     وَهَدَيۡنَٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمَ

     And We guided them to the Straight Way

119. ج23

     وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمَا فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ

     And We left (this blessing) for them among generations (to come) in later times

120. ج23

     سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ

     Peace and salutation to Moses and Aaron

121. ج23

     إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

     Thus indeed do We reward those who do right

122. ج23

     إِنَّهُمَا مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

     For they were two of our believing Servants

123. ج23

     وَإِنَّ إِلۡيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

     So also was Elias among those sent (by Us)

124. ج23

     إِذۡ قَالَ لِقَوۡمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ

     Behold, he said to his people, "Will ye not fear (Allah)

125. ج23

     أَتَدۡعُونَ بَعۡلࣰ ا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحۡسَنَ ٱلۡخَٰلِقِينَ

     Will ye call upon Baal and forsake the Best of Creators

126. ج23

     ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمۡ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

     Allah, your Lord and Cherisher and the Lord and Cherisher of your fathers of old

127. ج23

     فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُونَ

     But they rejected him, and they will certainly be called up (for punishment)

128. ج23

     إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ

     Except the sincere and devoted Servants of Allah (among them)

129. ج23

     وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ

     And We left (this blessing) for him among generations (to come) in later times

130. ج23

     سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلۡ يَاسِينَ

     Peace and salutation to such as Elias

131. ج23

     إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

     Thus indeed do We reward those who do right

132. ج23

     إِنَّهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

     For he was one of our believing Servants

133. ج23

     وَإِنَّ لُوطࣰ ا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

     So also was Lut among those sent (by Us)

134. ج23

     إِذۡ نَجَّيۡنَٰهُ وَأَهۡلَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ

     Behold, We delivered him and his adherents, all

135. ج23

     إِلَّا عَجُوزࣰ ا فِي ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ

     Except an old woman who was among those who lagged behind

136. ج23

     ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ

     Then We destroyed the rest

137. ج23

     وَإِنَّكُمۡ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيۡهِم مُّصۡبِحِينَ

     Verily, ye pass by their (sites), by day

138. ج23

     وَبِٱلَّيۡلِۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ

     And by night: will ye not understand

139. ج23

     وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

     So also was Jonah among those sent (by Us)

140. ج23

     إِذۡ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ

     When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden

141. ج23

     فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُدۡحَضِينَ

     He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned

142. ج23

     فَٱلۡتَقَمَهُ ٱلۡحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمࣱ‏

     Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame

143. ج23

     فَلَوۡلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحِينَ

     Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah

144. ج23

     لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطۡنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ

     He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection

145. ج23

     ۞فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمࣱ‏

     But We cast him forth on the naked shore in a state of sickness

146. ج23

     وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةࣰ مِّن يَقۡطِينࣲ‏

     And We caused to grow, over him, a spreading plant of the gourd kind

147. ج23

     وَأَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِاْئَةِ أَلۡفٍ أَوۡ يَزِيدُونَ

     And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred thousand (men) or more

148. ج23

     فَـَٔامَنُواْ فَمَتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ إِلَىٰ حِينࣲ‏

     And they believed; so We permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while

149. ج23

     فَٱسۡتَفۡتِهِمۡ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلۡبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلۡبَنُونَ

     Now ask them their opinion: Is it that thy Lord has (only) daughters, and they have sons

150. ج23

     أَمۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثࣰ ا وَهُمۡ شَٰهِدُونَ

     Or that We created the angels female, and they are witnesses (thereto)

151. ج23

     أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنۡ إِفۡكِهِمۡ لَيَقُولُونَ

     Is it not that they say, from their own invention

152. ج23

     وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَكَٰذِبُونَ

     Allah has begotten children"? but they are liars

153. ج23

     أَصۡطَفَى ٱلۡبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلۡبَنِينَ

     Did He (then) choose daughters rather than sons

154. ج23

     مَا لَكُمۡ كَيۡفَ تَحۡكُمُونَ

     What is the matter with you? How judge ye

155. ج23

     أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ

     Will ye not then receive admonition

156. ج23

     أَمۡ لَكُمۡ سُلۡطَٰنࣱ مُّبِينࣱ‏

     Or have ye an authority manifest

157. ج23

     فَأۡتُواْ بِكِتَٰبِكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ

     Then bring ye your Book (of authority) if ye be truthful

158. ج23

     وَجَعَلُواْ بَيۡنَهُۥ وَبَيۡنَ ٱلۡجِنَّةِ نَسَبࣰ اۚ وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمَتِ ٱلۡجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُونَ

     And they have invented a blood-relationship between Him and the Jinns: but the Jinns know (quite well) that they have indeed to appear (before his Judgment-Seat)

159. ج23

     سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ

     Glory to Allah! (He is free) from the things they ascribe (to Him)

160. ج23

     إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ

     Not (so do) the Servants of Allah, sincere and devoted

161. ج23

     فَإِنَّكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡبُدُونَ

     For, verily, neither ye nor those ye worship

162. ج23

     مَآ أَنتُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ بِفَٰتِنِينَ

     Can lead (any) into temptation concerning Allah

163. ج23

     إِلَّا مَنۡ هُوَ صَالِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ

     Except such as are (themselves) going to the blazing Fire

164. ج23

     وَمَا مِنَّآ إِلَّا لَهُۥ مَقَامࣱ مَّعۡلُومࣱ‏

     (Those ranged in ranks say): "Not one of us but has a place appointed

165. ج23

     وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ

     And we are verily ranged in ranks (for service)

166. ج23

     وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحُونَ

     And we are verily those who declare (Allah's) glory

167. ج23

     وَإِن كَانُواْ لَيَقُولُونَ

     And there were those who said

168. ج23

     لَوۡ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكۡرࣰ ا مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

     If only we had had before us a Message from those of old

169. ج23

     لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ

     We should certainly have been Servants of Allah, sincere (and devoted)

170. ج23

     فَكَفَرُواْ بِهِۦۖ فَسَوۡفَ يَعۡلَمُونَ

     But (now that the Qur'an has come), they reject it: But soon will they know

171. ج23

     وَلَقَدۡ سَبَقَتۡ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

     Already has Our Word been passed before (this) to our Servants sent (by Us)

172. ج23

     إِنَّهُمۡ لَهُمُ ٱلۡمَنصُورُونَ

     That they would certainly be assisted

173. ج23

     وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبُونَ

     And that Our forces,- they surely must conquer

174. ج23

     فَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينࣲ‏

     So turn thou away from them for a little while

175. ج23

     وَأَبۡصِرۡهُمۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ

     And watch them (how they fare), and they soon shall see (how thou farest)

176. ج23

     أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ

     Do they wish (indeed) to hurry on our Punishment

177. ج23

     فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمۡ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ

     But when it descends into the open space before them, evil will be the morning for those who were warned (and heeded not)

178. ج23

     وَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينࣲ‏

     So turn thou away from them for a little while

179. ج23

     وَأَبۡصِرۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ

     And watch (how they fare) and they soon shall see (how thou farest)

180. ج23

     سُبۡحَٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلۡعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ

     Glory to thy Lord, the Lord of Honour and Power! (He is free) from what they ascribe (to Him)

181. ج23

     وَسَلَٰمٌ عَلَى ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

     And Peace on the messengers

182. ج23

     وَٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

     And Praise to Allah, the Lord and Cherisher of the Worlds
