أَوَلَم يَرَوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ الَّذي خَلَقَ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضَ قادِرٌ عَلىٰ أَن يَخلُقَ مِثلَهُم وَجَعَلَ لَهُم أَجَلًا لا رَيبَ فيهِ فَأَبَى الظّالِمونَ إِلّا كُفورًا

Don’t they realize that God, who created the heavens and the earth, is able to create their likes? He appointed for them a term, of which there is no doubt. But the wrongdoers refuse anything except disbelief.

قُل لَو أَنتُم تَملِكونَ خَزائِنَ رَحمَةِ رَبّي إِذًا لَأَمسَكتُم خَشيَةَ الإِنفاقِ ۚ وَكانَ الإِنسانُ قَتورًا

Say, “If you possessed the treasures of the mercy of my Lord, then you would withhold out of fear of spending.” Man is ever reluctant to give.

وَلَقَد آتَينا موسىٰ تِسعَ آياتٍ بَيِّناتٍ ۖ فَاسأَل بَني إِسرائيلَ إِذ جاءَهُم فَقالَ لَهُ فِرعَونُ إِنّي لَأَظُنُّكَ يا موسىٰ مَسحورًا

We gave Moses nine clear signs. Ask the Children of Israel, when he came to them, Pharaoh said to him, “O Moses, I suspect you are under a spell.”

قالَ لَقَد عَلِمتَ ما أَنزَلَ هـٰؤُلاءِ إِلّا رَبُّ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ بَصائِرَ وَإِنّي لَأَظُنُّكَ يا فِرعَونُ مَثبورًا

He replied, “You’ve certainly known that none sent these down except the Lord of the heavens and the earth, as eye-openers. It seems to me, O Pharaoh, that you are perishing.”

فَأَرادَ أَن يَستَفِزَّهُم مِنَ الأَرضِ فَأَغرَقناهُ وَمَن مَعَهُ جَميعًا

So he intended to drive them out from the land, but We drowned him and those with him all together.

وَبِالحَقِّ أَنزَلناهُ وَبِالحَقِّ نَزَلَ ۗ وَما أَرسَلناكَ إِلّا مُبَشِّرًا وَنَذيرًا

We revealed it with the truth, and in truth, it descended. We sent you only to give good news and to issue warnings.

وَقُرآنًا فَرَقناهُ لِتَقرَأَهُ عَلَى النّاسِ عَلىٰ مُكثٍ وَنَزَّلناهُ تَنزيلًا

A Quran that We unfolded gradually, for you to read to people over time. We revealed it in stages.

قُل آمِنوا بِهِ أَو لا تُؤمِنوا ۚ إِنَّ الَّذينَ أوتُوا العِلمَ مِن قَبلِهِ إِذا يُتلىٰ عَلَيهِم يَخِرّونَ لِلأَذقانِ سُجَّدًا

Say, “Believe in it, or don’t believe. Those who were given knowledge before it, when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces, in humility.

وَيَقولونَ سُبحانَ رَبِّنا إِن كانَ وَعدُ رَبِّنا لَمَفعولًا

And they exclaim, “Praise be to our Lord! The promise of our Lord has been fulfilled.”

وَيَخِرّونَ لِلأَذقانِ يَبكونَ وَيَزيدُهُم خُشوعًا ۩

And they will fall down, crying, and it would increase them in humility.
