بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ يس
Ya, Seen.
وَالقُرآنِ الحَكيمِ
By the Wise Quran.
إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ المُرسَلينَ
You are certainly among the messengers.
عَلىٰ صِراطٍ مُستَقيمٍ
On a straight path.
تَنزيلَ العَزيزِ الرَّحيمِ
The revelation of the Almighty, the Merciful.
لِتُنذِرَ قَومًا ما أُنذِرَ آباؤُهُم فَهُم غافِلونَ
To warn a people whose forefathers weren’t warned, thus they are unaware.
لَقَد حَقَّ القَولُ عَلىٰ أَكثَرِهِم فَهُم لا يُؤمِنونَ
The word has been justified against most of them, for they don’t believe.
إِنّا جَعَلنا في أَعناقِهِم أَغلالًا فَهِيَ إِلَى الأَذقانِ فَهُم مُقمَحونَ
We placed shackles around their necks, up to their chins, so their heads are forcibly raised.
وَجَعَلنا مِن بَينِ أَيديهِم سَدًّا وَمِن خَلفِهِم سَدًّا فَأَغشَيناهُم فَهُم لا يُبصِرونَ
We placed a barrier before and a barrier behind them, and we covered them, so they couldn’t see.
وَسَواءٌ عَلَيهِم أَأَنذَرتَهُم أَم لَم تُنذِرهُم لا يُؤمِنونَ
Whether you warn them or not, it’s the same for them—they will not believe.
إِنَّما تُنذِرُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الذِّكرَ وَخَشِيَ الرَّحمـٰنَ بِالغَيبِ ۖ فَبَشِّرهُ بِمَغفِرَةٍ وَأَجرٍ كَريمٍ
You only warn those who adhere to the Message and revere the Most Merciful unseen. Give them good news of forgiveness and a generous reward.
