وَمِنَ اللَّيلِ فَتَهَجَّد بِهِ نافِلَةً لَكَ عَسىٰ أَن يَبعَثَكَ رَبُّكَ مَقامًا مَحمودًا
Spend part of the night in vigil, as a supplementary prayer, so that your Lord may elevate you to a commendable station.
وَقُل رَبِّ أَدخِلني مُدخَلَ صِدقٍ وَأَخرِجني مُخرَجَ صِدقٍ وَاجعَل لي مِن لَدُنكَ سُلطانًا نَصيرًا
And pray, “My Lord, let my entry be truthful, and my exit be truthful; and grant me, from You, a supporting authority.”
وَقُل جاءَ الحَقُّ وَزَهَقَ الباطِلُ ۚ إِنَّ الباطِلَ كانَ زَهوقًا
And say, “The truth has come, and falsehood has dissipated. Falsehood is bound to dissipate.”
وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ القُرآنِ ما هُوَ شِفاءٌ وَرَحمَةٌ لِلمُؤمِنينَ ۙ وَلا يَزيدُ الظّالِمينَ إِلّا خَسارًا
We reveal in the Quran healing and mercy for believers, but it increases the wrongdoers in nothing but loss.
وَإِذا أَنعَمنا عَلَى الإِنسانِ أَعرَضَ وَنَأىٰ بِجانِبِهِ ۖ وَإِذا مَسَّهُ الشَّرُّ كانَ يَئوسًا
When We bestow favor upon a person, he withdraws and turns aside; but when adversity touches him, he is in despair.
قُل كُلٌّ يَعمَلُ عَلىٰ شاكِلَتِهِ فَرَبُّكُم أَعلَمُ بِمَن هُوَ أَهدىٰ سَبيلًا
Say, “Each person acts according to his character, and your Lord knows best who is rightly guided.”
وَيَسأَلونَكَ عَنِ الرّوحِ ۖ قُلِ الرّوحُ مِن أَمرِ رَبّي وَما أوتيتُم مِنَ العِلمِ إِلّا قَليلًا
They ask you about the spirit. Respond, “The spirit is by the command of my Lord, and you’ve been given only a little knowledge.”
وَلَئِن شِئنا لَنَذهَبَنَّ بِالَّذي أَوحَينا إِلَيكَ ثُمَّ لا تَجِدُ لَكَ بِهِ عَلَينا وَكيلًا
If We willed, We could take away what We revealed to you. Then, you would find no one to defend you against Us.
إِلّا رَحمَةً مِن رَبِّكَ ۚ إِنَّ فَضلَهُ كانَ عَلَيكَ كَبيرًا
This is only by the mercy of your Lord. His grace unto you is immense.
قُل لَئِنِ اجتَمَعَتِ الإِنسُ وَالجِنُّ عَلىٰ أَن يَأتوا بِمِثلِ هـٰذَا القُرآنِ لا يَأتونَ بِمِثلِهِ وَلَو كانَ بَعضُهُم لِبَعضٍ ظَهيرًا
Say, “Even if all humans and jinn were to collaborate to produce something akin to this Quran, they would not succeed, despite their collective efforts.”
وَلَقَد صَرَّفنا لِلنّاسِ في هـٰذَا القُرآنِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٍ فَأَبىٰ أَكثَرُ النّاسِ إِلّا كُفورًا
In this Quran, We provide diverse parables for people, yet the majority persist in disbelief.
