فَكَذَّبوهُ فَأَخَذَهُم عَذابُ يَومِ الظُّلَّةِ ۚ إِنَّهُ كانَ عَذابَ يَومٍ عَظيمٍ
They disbelieved him, so the punishment of the Day of the Shadow befell them: a day of immense suffering.
إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَما كانَ أَكثَرُهُم مُؤمِنينَ
In that is a sign, yet most of them refuse to believe.
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ
Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
وَإِنَّهُ لَتَنزيلُ رَبِّ العالَمينَ
This is a revelation from the Lord of the universes.
نَزَلَ بِهِ الرّوحُ الأَمينُ
The Trustworthy Spirit came down with it.
عَلىٰ قَلبِكَ لِتَكونَ مِنَ المُنذِرينَ
Upon your heart, so you may be among the warners.
بِلِسانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ مُبينٍ
In clear Arabic language.
وَإِنَّهُ لَفي زُبُرِ الأَوَّلينَ
And it was foretold in the scriptures of old.
أَوَلَم يَكُن لَهُم آيَةً أَن يَعلَمَهُ عُلَماءُ بَني إِسرائيلَ
Is it not a sign for them that the scholars among the Children of Israel recognize it?
وَلَو نَزَّلناهُ عَلىٰ بَعضِ الأَعجَمينَ
Even if We had revealed it to a foreigner.
فَقَرَأَهُ عَلَيهِم ما كانوا بِهِ مُؤمِنينَ
And he had recited it to them, they still wouldn’t have believed it.
