Ţā-Sīn-Mīm Tuم Sïn M'ïm.[26.1] طَا-سِين-مِيم
Tilka 'Āyātu Al-Kitābi Al-Mubīni These are verses of the Glorious Book.[26.2] تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ
La`allaka Bākhi`un Nafsaka 'Allā Yakūnū Mu'uminīna O Muhammad, you will perhaps fret yourself to death with grief because they do not believe.[26.3] لَعَلَّكَ بَاخِع ٌ نَفْسَكَ أَلاَّ يَكُونُوا مُؤْمِنِينَ
'In Nasha' Nunazzil `Alayhim Mina As-Samā'i 'Āyatan Fažallat 'A`nāquhum Lahā Khāđi`īna If We wanted, We could send down upon them a sign from the heaven before which they would bend their necks in submission, but that is not what We want.[26.4] إِنْ نَشَأْ نُنَزِّلْ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ آيَة ً فَظَلَّتْ أَعْنَاقُهُمْ لَهَا خَاضِعِينَ
Wa Mā Ya'tīhim Min Dhikrin Mina Ar-Raĥmāni Muĥdathin 'Illā Kānū `Anhu Mu`rīna They have been turning their backs on each fresh warning that comes to them from the Compassionate (Allah).[26.5] وَمَا يَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ ذِكْر ٍ مِنَ الرَّحْمَنِ مُحْدَث ٍ إِلاَّ كَانُوا عَنْهُ مُعْرِضِينَ
Faqad Kadhdhabū Fasaya'tīhim 'Anbā'u Mā Kānū Bihi Yastahzi'ūn But now that they have neglected the warning, they will soon come to know the reality of what they have been mocking at.[26.6] فَقَدْ كَذَّبُوا فَسَيَأْتِيهِمْ أَنْبَاءُ مَا كَانُوا بِه ِِ يَسْتَهْزِئُون
'Awalam Yaraw 'Ilá Al-'Arđi Kam 'Anbatnā Fīhā Min Kulli Zawjin Karīmin Have they not looked at the earth to see how We have caused all kinds of noble pairs to grow in it?[26.7] أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا إِلَى الأَرْضِ كَمْ أَنْبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِنْ كُلِّ زَوْج ٍ كَرِيم ٍ
'Inna Fī Dhālika La'āyatan Wa Mā Kāna 'Aktharuhum Mu'uminīna Surely in this there is a sign; yet most of them do not believe.[26.8] إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَة ً وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ
Wa 'Inna Rabbaka Lahuwa Al-`Azīzu Ar-Raĥīmu In fact your Rabb is the Mighty as well as the Merciful.[26.9] وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ
Wa 'Idh Nādá Rabbuka Mūsá 'Ani A'ti Al-Qawma Až-Žālimīna Remind them of the story when your Rabb called Musa (Moses) and said: “Go to the wicked people[26.10] وَإِذْ نَادَى رَبُّكَ مُوسَى أَنِ ائْتِ الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ
Qawma Fir`awna 'Alā Yattaqūna the people of Fir'on (Pharaoh). Have they no fear?”[26.11] قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ أَلاَ يَتَّقُونَ
Qāla Rabbi 'Innī 'Akhāfu 'An Yukadhdhibūni Musa submitted, saying: “My Rabb! I fear that they will reject me.[26.12] قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يُكَذِّبُونِ
Wa Yađīqu Şadrī Wa Lā Yanţaliqu Lisānī Fa'arsil 'Ilá Hārūna My breast feels cramped and my tongue is not eloquent; send Haroon (Aaron).[26.13] وَيَضِيقُ صَدْرِي وَلاَ يَنْطَلِقُ لِسَانِي فَأَرْسِلْ إِلَى هَارُونَ
Wa Lahum `Alayya Dhanbun Fa'akhāfu 'An Yaqtulūni They have a charge of manslaughter against me and I fear they may put me to death.”[26.14] وَلَهُمْ عَلَيَّ ذَنْب ٌ فَأَخَافُ أَنْ يَقْتُلُونِ
Qāla Kallā Fādh/habā Bi'āyātinā 'Innā Ma`akum Mustami`ūna Allah said: “Indeed not! Proceed, both of you, with Our signs; surely We are with you, listening.[26.15] قَالَ كَلاَّ فَاذْهَبَا بِآيَاتِنَا إِنَّا مَعَكُمْ مُسْتَمِعُونَ
Fa'tiyā Fir`awna Faqūlā 'Innā Rasūlu Rabbi Al-`Ālamīna Go to Fir'on and tell him: "We are the Rasools from the Rabb of the Worlds.[26.16] فَأْتِيَا فِرْعَوْنَ فَقُولاَ إِنَّا رَسُولُ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
'An 'Arsil Ma`anā Banī 'Isrā'īla You should send with us the Children of Israel."[26.17] أَنْ أَرْسِلْ مَعَنَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ
Qāla 'Alam Nurabbika Fīnā Walīdāan Wa Labithta Fīnā Min `Umurika Sinīna When they went to Fir'on and conveyed the Message of Allah, he said: “Did we not cherish you when you were a child? Did you not stay several years of your life among us?[26.18] قَالَ أَلَمْ نُرَبِّكَ فِينَا وَلِيدا ً وَلَبِثْتَ فِينَا مِنْ عُمُرِكَ سِنِينَ
Wa Fa`alta Fa`lataka Allatī Fa`alta Wa 'Anta Mina Al-Kāfirīna Then you did what you did; you are so ungrateful!”[26.19] وَفَعَلْتَ فَعْلَتَكَ الَّتِي فَعَلْتَ وَأَنْتَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ
Qāla Fa`altuhā 'Idhāan Wa 'Anā Mina Ađ-Đāllīn Musa replied: “I did that when I was a misguided youth.[26.20] قَالَ فَعَلْتُهَا إِذا ً وَأَنَا مِنَ الضَّالِّين
Fafarartu Minkum Lammā Khiftukum Fawahaba Lī Rabbī Ĥukmāan Wa Ja`alanī Mina Al-Mursalīna I fled from you all because I feared you; but now my Rabb has granted me wisdom and appointed me as one of His Rasools.[26.21] فَفَرَرْتُ مِنْكُمْ لَمَّا خِفْتُكُمْ فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكْما ً وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ
Wa Tilka Ni`matun Tamunnuhā `Alayya 'An `Abbadta Banī 'Isrā'īla Is it a favor with which you taunt me, that you have enslaved the Children of Israel?”[26.22] وَتِلْكَ نِعْمَة ٌ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَيَّ أَنْ عَبَّدْتَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ
Qāla Fir`awnu Wa Mā Rabbu Al-`Ālamīna Fir'on said: “Who is this Rabb of the Worlds?”[26.23] قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَا رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ
Qāla Rabbu As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'Arđi Wa Mā Baynahumā 'In Kuntum Mūqinīna Musa replied: “He is the Rabb of the heavens and the earth and all that lies between them, if you really care to believe.”[26.24] قَالَ رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إنْ كُنتُمْ مُوقِنِينَ
Qāla Liman Ĥawlahu 'Alā Tastami`ūna Fir'on said to those around him, “Do you hear that?”[26.25] قَالَ لِمَنْ حَوْلَهُ~ُ أَلاَ تَسْتَمِعُونَ
Qāla Rabbukum Wa Rabbu 'Ābā'ikumu Al-'Awwalīna Musa continued: “He is your Rabb and the Rabb of your forefathers."[26.26] قَالَ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الأَوَّلِينَ
Qāla 'Inna Rasūlakumu Al-Ladhī 'Ursila 'Ilaykum Lamajnūnun Fir'on interjected: “This Rasool of yours, who has been sent to you, is crazy.”[26.27] قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَكُمُ الَّذِي أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ لَمَجْنُون ٌ
Qāla Rabbu Al-Mashriqi Wa Al-Maghribi Wa Mā Baynahumā 'In Kuntum Ta`qilūna Musa continued:“ He is the Rabb of the east and west, and all that lies between them. If you would only care and try to understand." [26.28] قَالَ رَبُّ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ
Qāla La'ini Attakhadhta 'Ilahāan Ghayrī La'aj`alannaka Mina Al-Masjūnīna At this, Fir'on, who did not want to listen any more said: “If you serve any other god besides me, I shall have you thrown into prison."[26.29] قَالَ لَئِنِ اتَّخَذْتَ إِلَهَاً غَيْرِي لَأَجْعَلَنَّكَ مِنَ الْمَسْجُونِينَ
Qāla 'Awalaw Ji'tuka Bishay'in Mubīnin At this, Musa said: “What if I show you a convincing sign?”[26.30] قَالَ أَوَلَوْ جِئْتُكَ بِشَيْء ٍ مُبِين ٍ
Qāla Fa'ti Bihi 'In Kunta Mina Aş-Şādiqīna Fir'on said: “Go ahead, show it if you are of the truthful."[26.31] قَالَ فَأْتِ بِهِ~ِ إِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ
Fa'alqá `Aşāhu Fa'idhā Hiya Thu`bānun Mubīnun Hearing this, Musa threw down his staff, and thereupon it changed into a veritable serpent.[26.32] فَأَلْقَى عَصَاه ُُ فَإِذَا هِيَ ثُعْبَان ٌ مُبِين ٌ
Wa Naza`a Yadahu Fa'idhā Hiya Bayđā'u Lilnnāžirīna Then he drew forth his hand and it became shining bright for the spectators.[26.33] وَنَزَعَ يَدَه ُُ فَإِذَا هِيَ بَيْضَاءُ لِلنَّاظِرِينَ
Qāla Lilmala'i Ĥawlahu 'Inna Hādhā Lasāĥirun `Alīmun After witnessing both the miracles, Fir'on (Pharaoh) said to the chiefs around him: “This fellow is certainly a skilled magician,[26.34] قَالَ لِلْمَلَإِ حَوْلَهُ~ُ إِنَّ هَذَا لَسَاحِرٌ عَلِيم ٌ
Yurīdu 'An Yukhrijakum Min 'Arđikum Bisiĥrihi Famādhā Ta'murūna who seeks to drive you out from your land by the force of his magic. Now what is your advice?”[26.35] يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُخْرِجَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِكُمْ بِسِحْرِه ِِ فَمَاذَا تَأْمُرُونَ
Qālū 'Arjihi Wa 'Akhāhu Wa Ab`ath Al-Madā'ini Ĥāshirīna They submitted: “Put him and his brother off for a while, and dispatch heralds to the various cities[26.36] قَالُوا أَرْجِه ِِ وَأَخَاه ُُ وَابْعَثْ فِي الْمَدَائِنِ حَاشِرِينَ
Ya'tūka Bikulli Saĥĥārin `Alīmin to bring you every skilled magician."[26.37] يَأْتُوكَ بِكُلِّ سَحَّارٍ عَلِيم ٍ
Fajumi`a As-Saĥaratu Limīqāti Yawmin Ma`lūmin So the magicians were brought together at the appointed time on a fixed day.[26.38] فَجُمِعَ السَّحَرَةُ لِمِيقَاتِ يَوْم ٍ مَعْلُوم ٍ
Wa Qīla Lilnnāsi Hal 'Antum Mujtami`ūna The people were motivated through saying: “Would you come to the gathering?[26.39] وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُجْتَمِعُونَ
La`allanā Nattabi`u As-Saĥarata 'In Kānū Humu Al-Ghālibīna So that we may follow the magicians if they are dominant.”[26.40] لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ السَّحَرَةَ إِنْ كَانُوا هُمُ الْغَالِبِينَ
Falammā Jā'a As-Saĥaratu Qālū Lifir`awna 'A'inna Lanā La'ajrāan 'In Kunnā Naĥnu Al-Ghālibīna When the magicians arrived, they asked Fir'on: “Shall we get a reward if we are dominant?”[26.41] فَلَمَّا جَاءَ السَّحَرَةُ قَالُوا لِفِرْعَوْنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجْرا ً إِنْ كُنَّا نَحْنُ الْغَالِبِينَ
Qāla Na`am Wa 'Innakum 'Idhāan Lamina Al-Muqarrabīna Fir'on replied: “Yes of course! You will even be made my courtiers."[26.42] قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِذا ً لَمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ
Qāla Lahum Mūsá 'Alqū Mā 'Antum Mulqūna Musa said to them: “Cast down what you are going to cast."[26.43] قَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى أَلْقُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ مُلْقُونَ
Fa'alqaw Ĥibālahum Wa `Işīyahum Wa Qālū Bi`izzati Fir`awna 'Innā Lanaĥnu Al-Ghālibūna Thereupon they cast down their ropes and staffs, saying: “By the glory of Fir'on, we shall be the winners."[26.44] فَأَلْقَوْا حِبَالَهُمْ وَعِصِيَّهُمْ وَقَالُوا بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْغَالِبُونَ
Fa'alqá Mūsá `Aşāhu Fa'idhā Hiya Talqafu Mā Ya'fikūna Then Musa threw down his staff, and lo! It swallowed their false devices.[26.45] فَأَلْقَى مُوسَى عَصَاه ُُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلْقَفُ مَا يَأْفِكُونَ
Fa'ulqiya As-Saĥaratu Sājidīna At this, all the magicians prostrated themselves,[26.46] فَأُلْقِيَ السَّحَرَةُ سَاجِدِينَ
Qālū 'Āmannā Birabbi Al-`Ālamīna saying: “We believe in the Rabb of the Worlds,[26.47] قَالُوا آمَنَّا بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
Rabbi Mūsá Wa Hārūna the Rabb of Musa (Moses) and Haroon (Aaron)."[26.48] رَبِّ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ
Qāla 'Āmantum Lahu Qabla 'An 'Ādhana Lakum 'Innahu Lakabīrukumu Al-Ladhī `Allamakumu As-Siĥra Falasawfa Ta`lamūna La'uqaţţi`anna 'Aydiyakum Wa 'Arjulakum Min Khilāfin Wa La'uşallibannakum 'Ajma`īna Fir'on shouted: “How dare you believe in him before I give you permission? He must be your master who taught you the witchcraft. But soon you shall find out. I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides and crucify you all."[26.49] قَالَ آمَنْتُمْ لَه ُُ قَبْلَ أَنْ آذَنَ لَكُمْ إِنَّه ُُ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ الَّذِي عَلَّمَكُمُ السِّحْرَ فَلَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ لَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيْدِيَكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ مِنْ خِلاَف ٍ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
Qālū Lā Đayra 'Innā 'Ilá Rabbinā Munqalibūna They replied: “We don’t care! We are going to return to our Rabb anyway.[26.50] قَالُوا لاَ ضَيْرَ إِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا مُنْقَلِبُونَ
'Innā Naţma`u 'An Yaghfira Lanā Rabbunā Khaţāyānā 'An Kunnā 'Awwala Al-Mu'uminīna We only desire that our Rabb may forgive us our sins, as we are the first to believe."[26.51] إِنَّا نَطْمَعُ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطَايَانَا أَنْ كُنَّا أَوَّلَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Wa 'Awĥaynā 'Ilá Mūsá 'An 'Asri Bi`ibādī 'Innakum Muttaba`ūna We revealed to Musa (Moses), saying: “Set off with my servants by night and beware that you will be pursued."[26.52] وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى مُوسَى أَنْ أَسْرِ بِعِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ مُتَّبَعُونَ
Fa'arsala Fir`awnu Fī Al-Madā'ini Ĥāshirīna Fir'on (Pharaoh) sent heralds to all the cities,[26.53] فَأَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ فِي الْمَدَائِنِ حَاشِرِينَ
'Inna Hā'uulā' Lashirdhimatun Qalīlūna and to mobilize his people he said: “These Israelites are but a handful of people,[26.54] إِنَّ هَاؤُلاَء لَشِرْذِمَة ٌ قَلِيلُونَ
Wa 'Innahum Lanā Laghā'ižūna who have provoked us much;[26.55] وَإِنَّهُمْ لَنَا لَغَائِظُونَ
Wa 'Innā Lajamī`un Ĥādhirūna while we have a large army, well prepared."[26.56] وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَاذِرُونَ
Fa'akhrajnāhum Min Jannātin Wa `Uyūnin Thus did We make them leave their gardens and their water springs,[26.57] فَأَخْرَجْنَاهُمْ مِنْ جَنَّات ٍ وَعُيُون ٍ
Wa Kunūzin Wa Maqāmin Karīmin their treasures and sumptuous dwellings.[26.58] وَكُنُوز ٍ وَمَقَام ٍ كَرِيم ٍ
Kadhālika Wa 'Awrathnāhā Banī 'Isrā'īla This is how they were made to lose, while on the other hand We made the Children of Israel inheritors of such things.[26.59] كَذَلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ
Fa'atba`ūhum Mushriqīna At sunrise the Egyptians pursued them.[26.60] فَأَتْبَعُوهُمْ مُشْرِقِينَ
Falammā Tarā'á Al-Jam`āni Qāla 'Aşĥābu Mūsá 'Innā Lamudrakūna When the two hosts came face to face, the companions of Musa cried out: “We are surely overtaken."[26.61] فَلَمَّا تَرَاءَى الْجَمْعَانِ قَالَ أَصْحَابُ مُوسَى إِنَّا لَمُدْرَكُونَ
Qāla Kallā 'Inna Ma`iya Rabbī Sayahdīni Musa said: “Not at all! My Rabb is with me; He will show me a way out.”[26.62] قَالَ كَلاَّ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهْدِينِ
Fa'awĥaynā 'Ilá Mūsá 'Ani Ađrib Bi`aşāka Al-Baĥra Fānfalaqa Fakāna Kullu Firqin Kālţţawdi Al-`Ažīmi Then We revealed Our will to Musa: "Strike the sea with your staff," and the sea was cleft asunder, each part stood like a mighty mountain.[26.63] فَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى مُوسَى أَنِ اضْرِبْ بِعَصَاكَ الْبَحْرَ فَانفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرْق ٍ كَالطَّوْدِ الْعَظِيمِ
Wa 'Azlafnā Thamma Al-'Ākharīna We made the other party (Fir'on and his army) follow them.[26.64] وَأَزْلَفْنَا ثَمَّ الآخَرِينَ
Wa 'Anjaynā Mūsá Wa Man Ma`ahu 'Ajma`īna We delivered Musa and all who were with him;[26.65] وَأَنْجَيْنَا مُوسَى وَمَنْ مَعَهُ~ُ أَجْمَعِينَ
Thumma 'Aghraq Al-'Ākharīna and drowned the others.[26.66] ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا الآخَرِينَ
'Inna Fī Dhālika La'āyatan Wa Mā Kāna 'Aktharuhum Mu'uminīna Surely there is a lesson in this: yet most of these people do not learn this lesson to become believers.[26.67] إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَة ً وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ
Wa 'Inna Rabbaka Lahuwa Al-`Azīzu Ar-Raĥīmu The fact is that your Rabb is the Mighty as well as the Merciful.[26.68] وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ
Wa Atlu `Alayhim Naba'a 'Ibrāhīma Narrate to them the story of Ibrمhïm,[26.69] وَاتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
'Idh Qāla Li'abīhi Wa Qawmihi Mā Ta`budūna when he asked his father and his people: “What is that which you worship?”[26.70] إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيه ِِ وَقَوْمِه ِِ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ
Qālū Na`budu 'Aşnāmāan Fanažallu Lahā `Ākifīna They replied: “We worship idols, and sit beside them with all devotion."[26.71] قَالُوا نَعْبُدُ أَصْنَاما ً فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَاكِفِينَ
Qāla Hal Yasma`ūnakum 'Idh Tad`ūna Ibrمhïm asked: “Do they hear you when you call on them?[26.72] قَالَ هَلْ يَسْمَعُونَكُمْ إِذْ تَدْعُونَ
'Aw Yanfa`ūnakum 'Aw Yađurrūna Can they help you or harm you?”[26.73] أَوْ يَنْفَعُونَكُمْ أَوْ يَضُرُّونَ
Qālū Bal Wajadnā 'Ābā'anā Kadhālika Yaf`alūna They replied: “No! But we found our forefathers doing so."[26.74] قَالُوا بَلْ وَجَدْنَا آبَاءَنَا كَذَلِكَ يَفْعَلُونَ
Qāla 'Afara'aytum Mā Kuntum Ta`budūna Ibrمhïm said: “Have you ever seen with open eyes these which you have been worshipping[26.75] قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتُمْ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ
'Antum Wa 'Ābā'uukumu Al-'Aqdamūna - you and your forefathers?[26.76] أَنْتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمُ الأَقْدَمُونَ
Fa'innahum `Adūwun Lī 'Illā Rabba Al-`Ālamīna They are all enemies to me; except the Rabb of the Worlds,[26.77] فَإِنَّهُمْ عَدُوّ ٌ لِي إِلاَّ رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ

Wa Al-Ladhī Huwa Yuţ`imunī Wa Yasqīni He is the One Who gives me food and drink,[26.79] وَالَّذِي هُوَ يُطْعِمُنِي وَيَسْقِينِ
Wa 'Idhā Mariđtu Fahuwa Yashfīni Who gives me health when I get sick,[26.80] وَإِذَا مَرِضْتُ فَهُوَ يَشْفِينِ
Wa Al-Ladhī Yumītunī Thumma Yuĥyīni Who will cause me to die and then bring me back to life,[26.81] وَالَّذِي يُمِيتُنِي ثُمَّ يُحْيِينِ
Wa Al-Ladhī 'Aţma`u 'An Yaghfira Lī Khī'atī Yawma Ad-Dīni Who, I hope, will forgive me my mistakes on the Day of Judgment."[26.82] وَالَّذِي أَطْمَعُ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لِي خَطِيئَتِي يَوْمَ الدِّينِ
Rabbi Hab Lī Ĥukmāan Wa 'Alĥiqnī Biş-Şāliĥīna After this, Ibrمhïm prayed: “O my Rabb! Bestow wisdom upon me and admit me among the righteous,[26.83] رَبِّ هَبْ لِي حُكْما ً وَأَلْحِقْنِي بِالصَّالِحِينَ
Wa Aj`al Lī Lisāna Şidqin Al-'Ākhirīna grant me a reputation of truthfulness on the tongue of later generations,[26.84] وَاجْعَلْ لِي لِسَانَ صِدْق ٍ فِي الآخِرِينَ
Wa Aj`alnī Min Warathati Jannati An-Na`īmi count me among the inheritors of the paradise of Bliss;[26.85] وَاجْعَلْنِي مِنْ وَرَثَةِ جَنَّةِ النَّعِيمِ
Wa Aghfir Li'abī 'Innahu Kāna Mina Ađ-Đāllīna forgive my father, for he is from among those who have gone astray,[26.86] وَاغْفِرْ لِأَبِي إِنَّه ُُ كَانَ مِنَ الضَّالِّينَ
Wa Lā Tukhzinī Yawma Yub`athūna do not hold me up in shame on the Day when everybody will be raised back to life[26.87] وَلاَ تُخْزِنِي يَوْمَ يُبْعَثُونَ
Yawma Lā Yanfa`u Mālun Wa Lā Banūna - the Day when neither wealth nor sons will avail anyone,[26.88] يَوْمَ لاَ يَنْفَعُ مَال ٌ وَلاَ بَنُونَ
'Illā Man 'Atá Al-Laha Biqalbin Salīmin and when none shall be saved except him who will come before Allah with a pure heart,[26.89] إِلاَّ مَنْ أَتَى اللَّهَ بِقَلْب ٍ سَلِيم ٍ
Wa 'Uzlifati Al-Jannatu Lilmuttaqīna when paradise shall be brought in the sight of the righteous;[26.90] وَأُزْلِفَتِ الْجَنَّةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
Wa Burrizati Al-Jaĥīmu Lilghāwīna while hell shall be spread open to the straying[26.91] وَبُرِّزَتِ الْجَحِيمُ لِلْغَاوِينَ
