تَنزيلٌ مِنَ الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ
A revelation from the Compassionate, the Merciful.
كِتابٌ فُصِّلَت آياتُهُ قُرآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لِقَومٍ يَعلَمونَ
A Book whose verses have been detailed. An Arabic Quran for people who understand.
بَشيرًا وَنَذيرًا فَأَعرَضَ أَكثَرُهُم فَهُم لا يَسمَعونَ
Bringing good news and warning, but most have turned away, so they don’t hear.
وَقالوا قُلوبُنا في أَكِنَّةٍ مِمّا تَدعونا إِلَيهِ وَفي آذانِنا وَقرٌ وَمِن بَينِنا وَبَينِكَ حِجابٌ فَاعمَل إِنَّنا عامِلونَ
They say, “Our hearts are covered from what you call us towards, in our ears is deafness, and there is a veil between you and us. So act, we too are acting.”
قُل إِنَّما أَنا بَشَرٌ مِثلُكُم يوحىٰ إِلَيَّ أَنَّما إِلـٰهُكُم إِلـٰهٌ واحِدٌ فَاستَقيموا إِلَيهِ وَاستَغفِروهُ ۗ وَوَيلٌ لِلمُشرِكينَ
Say, “I am only a human like you, divinely inspired that your God is One God. Be upright towards Him and ask for His forgiveness.” Woe to those who associate others with Him!
الَّذينَ لا يُؤتونَ الزَّكاةَ وَهُم بِالآخِرَةِ هُم كافِرونَ
Those who don’t give purity and deny the Hereafter.
