| Ţā-Sīn Tilka 'Āyātu Al-Qur'āni Wa Kitābin Mubīnin | TāSīn. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'ān, and none but Allāh (Alone) knows their meanings]. These are the Verses of the Qur'ān, and (it is) a Book (that makes things) clear; (An-Naml 27:1) | طَا-سِين تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْقُرْآنِ وَكِتَاب ٍ مُبِين ٍ |
| Hudáan Wa Bushrá Lilmu'uminīna | A guide (to the Right Path); and glad tidings for the believers [who believe in the Oneness of Allāh (i.e. Islāmic Monotheism)]. (An-Naml 27:2) | هُدى ً وَبُشْرَى لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ |
| Al-Ladhīna Yuqīmūna Aş-Şalāata Wa Yu'utūna Az-Zakāata Wa Hum Bil-'Ākhirati Hum Yūqinūna | Those who perform AsSalāt (IqāmatasSalāt) and give Zakāt and they believe with certainty in the Hereafter (resurrection, recompense of their good and bad deeds, Paradise and Hell, etc.). (An-Naml 27:3) | الَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلاَةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَهُمْ بِالآخِرَةِ هُمْ يُوقِنُونَ |

(An-Naml 27:4) | إِنَّ الَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالآخِرَةِ زَيَّنَّا لَهُمْ أَعْمَالَهُمْ فَهُمْ يَعْمَهُونَ |

| 'Idh Qāla Mūsá Li'hlihi 'Innī 'Ānastu Nārāan Sa'ātīkum Minhā Bikhabarin 'Aw 'Ātīkum Bishihābin Qabasin La`allakum Taşţalūna | (Remember) when Mûsa (Moses) said to his household: "Verily! I have seen a fire, I will bring you from there some information, or I will bring you a burning brand, that you may warm yourselves." (An-Naml 27:7) | إِذْ قَالَ مُوسَى لِأهْلِهِ~ِ إِنِّي آنَسْتُ نَارا ً سَآتِيكُمْ مِنْهَا بِخَبَرٍ أَوْ آتِيكُمْ بِشِهَاب ٍ قَبَس ٍ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَصْطَلُونَ |
| Falammā Jā'ahā Nūdiya 'An Būrika Man Fī An-Nāri Wa Man Ĥawlahā Wa Subĥāna Allāhi Rabbi Al-`Ālamīna | But when he came to it, he was called: "Blessed is whosoever is in the fire, and whosoever is round about it! And glorified be Allāh, the Lord of the 'Alamīn (mankind, jinns and all that exists). (An-Naml 27:8) | فَلَمَّا جَاءَهَا نُودِيَ أَنْ بُورِكَ مَنْ فِي النَّارِ وَمَنْ حَوْلَهَا وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ |
| Yā Mūsá 'Innahu 'Anā Allāhu Al-`Azīzu Al-Ĥakīmu | "O Mûsa (Moses)! Verily! It is I, Allāh, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. (An-Naml 27:9) | يَا مُوسَى إِنَّهُ~ُ أَنَا اللَّهُ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ |
| Wa 'Alqi `Aşāka Falammā Ra'āhā Tahtazzu Ka'annahā Jānnun Wallá Mudbirāan Wa Lam Yu`aqqib Yā Mūsá Lā Takhaf 'Innī Lā Yakhāfu Ladayya Al-Mursalūna | "And throw down your stick!" But when he saw it moving as if it were a snake, he turned in flight, and did not look back. (It was said): "O Mûsa (Moses)! Fear not, verily! The Messengers fear not in front of Me. (An-Naml 27:10) | وَأَلْقِ عَصَاكَ فَلَمَّا رَآهَا تَهْتَزُّ كَأَنَّهَا جَانّ ٌ وَلَّى مُدْبِرا ً وَلَمْ يُعَقِّبْ يَا مُوسَى لاَ تَخَفْ إِنِّي لاَ يَخَافُ لَدَيَّ الْمُرْسَلُونَ |
| 'Illā Man Žalama Thumma Baddala Ĥusnāan Ba`da Sū'in Fa'innī Ghafūrun Raĥīmun | "Except him who has done wrong and afterwards has changed evil for good, then surely, I am Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (An-Naml 27:11) | إِلاَّ مَنْ ظَلَمَ ثُمَّ بَدَّلَ حُسْنا ً بَعْدَ سُوء ٍ فَإِنِّي غَفُور ٌ رَحِيم ٌ |

(These are) among the nine signs (you will take) to Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his people, they are a people who are the Fāsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allāh). (An-Naml 27:12) | وَأَدْخِلْ يَدَكَ فِي جَيْبِكَ تَخْرُجْ بَيْضَاءَ مِنْ غَيْرِ سُوء ٍ فِي تِسْعِ آيَات ٍ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَقَوْمِهِ~ِ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْما ً فَاسِقِينَ |
| Falammā Jā'at/hum 'Āyātunā Mubşiratan Qālū Hādhā Siĥrun Mubīnun | But when Our Ayāt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) came to them, clear to see, they said: "This is a manifest magic." (An-Naml 27:13) | فَلَمَّا جَاءَتْهُمْ آيَاتُنَا مُبْصِرَة ً قَالُوا هَذَا سِحْر ٌ مُبِين ٌ |
| Wa Jaĥadū Bihā Wa Astayqanat/hā 'Anfusuhum Žulmāan Wa `Ulūwāan Fānžur Kayfa Kāna `Āqibatu Al-Mufsidīna | And they belied them (those Ayāt) wrongfully and arrogantly, though their ownselves were convinced thereof [i.e. those (Ayāt) are from Allāh, and Mûsa (Moses) is the Messenger of Allāh in truth, but they disliked to obey Mûsa (Moses), and hated to believe in his Message of Monotheism]. So see what was the end of the Mufsidûn (disbelievers, disobedient to Allāh, evil-doers, liars.). (An-Naml 27:14) | وَجَحَدُوا بِهَا وَاسْتَيْقَنَتْهَا أَنْفُسُهُمْ ظُلْما ً وَعُلُوّا ً فَانظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُفْسِدِينَ |

(An-Naml 27:15) | وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا دَاوُودَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ عِلْما ً وَقَالاَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي فَضَّلَنَا عَلَى كَثِير ٍ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ |

He said: "O mankind! We have been taught the language of birds, and on us have been bestowed all things. This, verily, is an evident grace (from Allāh)." (An-Naml 27:16) | وَوَرِثَ سُلَيْمَانُ دَاوُودَ وَقَالَ يَاأَيُّهَا النَّاسُ عُلِّمْنَا مَنطِقَ الطَّيْرِ وَأُوتِينَا مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْء ٍ إِنَّ هَذَا لَهُوَ الْفَضْلُ الْمُبِينُ |
| Wa Ĥushira Lisulaymāna Junūduhu Mina Al-Jinni Wa Al-'Insi Wa Aţ-Ţayri Fahum Yūza`ūna | And there were gathered before Sulaimān (Solomon) his hosts of jinns and men, and birds, and they all were set in battle order (marching forwards). (An-Naml 27:17) | وَحُشِرَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ جُنُودُه ُُ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالإِنْسِ وَالطَّيْرِ فَهُمْ يُوزَعُونَ |

Enter your dwellings, lest Sulaimān (Solomon) and his hosts crush you, while they perceive not." (An-Naml 27:18) | حَتَّى إِذَا أَتَوْا عَلَى وَادِي النَّمْلِ قَالَتْ نَمْلَة ٌ يَاأَيُّهَا النَّمْلُ ادْخُلُوا مَسَاكِنَكُمْ لاَ يَحْطِمَنَّكُمْ سُلَيْمَانُ وَجُنُودُه ُُ وَهُمْ لاَ يَشْعُرُونَ |

Inspire and bestow upon me the power and ability that I may be grateful for Your Favours which You have bestowed on me and on my parents, and that I may do righteous good deeds that will please You, and admit me by Your Mercy among Your righteous slaves." (An-Naml 27:19) | فَتَبَسَّمَ ضَاحِكا ً مِنْ قَوْلِهَا وَقَالَ رَبِّ أَوْزِعْنِي أَنْ أَشْكُرَ نِعْمَتَكَ الَّتِي أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَى وَالِدَيَّ وَأَنْ أَعْمَلَ صَالِحا ً تَرْضَاه ُُ وَأَدْخِلْنِي بِرَحْمَتِكَ فِي عِبَادِكَ الصَّالِحِينَ |
| Wa Tafaqqada Aţ-Ţayra Faqāla Mā Lī Lā 'Ará Al-Hud/huda 'Am Kāna Mina Al-Ghā'ibīna | He inspected the birds, and said: "What is the matter that I see not the hoopoe? Or is he among the absentees? (An-Naml 27:20) | وَتَفَقَّدَ الطَّيْرَ فَقَالَ مَا لِي لاَ أَرَى الْهُدْهُدَ أَمْ كَانَ مِنَ الْغَائِبِينَ |
| La'u`adhdhibannahu `Adhābāan Shadīdāan 'Aw La'adhbaĥannahu 'Aw Laya'tiyanī Bisulţānin Mubīnin | "I will surely punish him with a severe torment, or slaughter him, unless he brings me a clear reason." (An-Naml 27:21) | لَأُعَذِّبَنَّه ُُ عَذَابا ً شَدِيداً أَوْ لَأَذْبَحَنَّهُ~ُ أَوْ لَيَأْتِيَنِي بِسُلْطَان ٍ مُبِين ٍ |

(An-Naml 27:22) | فَمَكَثَ غَيْرَ بَعِيد ٍ فَقَالَ أَحَطتُ بِمَا لَمْ تُحِطْ بِه ِِ وَجِئْتُكَ مِنْ سَبَإ ٍ بِنَبَإ ٍ يَقِين ٍ |

[Tafsir At-Tabarī, Vol. 19, Page 149] (An-Naml 27:25) | أَلاَّ يَسْجُدُوا لِلَّهِ الَّذِي يُخْرِجُ الْخَبْءَ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تُخْفُونَ وَمَا تُعْلِنُونَ |

She said: "My Lord! Verily, I have wronged myself, and I submit (in Islām, together with Sulaimān (Solomon), to Allāh, the Lord of the 'Alamīn (mankind, jinns and all that exists)." (An-Naml 27:44) | قِيلَ لَهَا ادْخُلِي الصَّرْحَ فَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُ حَسِبَتْهُ لُجَّة ً وَكَشَفَتْ عَنْ سَاقَيْهَا قَالَ إِنَّه ُُ صَرْح ٌ مُمَرَّد ٌ مِنْ قَوَارِيرَ قَالَتْ رَبِّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي وَأَسْلَمْتُ مَعَ سُلَيْمَانَ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ |

Then look! They became two parties (believers and disbelievers) quarreling with each other." (An-Naml 27:45) | وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى ثَمُودَ أَخَاهُمْ صَالِحاً أَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ فَإِذَا هُمْ فَرِيقَانِ يَخْتَصِمُونَ |

Why do you seek to hasten the evil (torment) before the good (Allāh's Mercy)? Why seek you not the Forgiveness of Allāh, that you may receive mercy?" (An-Naml 27:46) | قَالَ يَاقَوْمِ لِمَ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ قَبْلَ الْحَسَنَةِ لَوْلاَ تَسْتَغْفِرُونَ اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ |

He said: "Your ill omen is with Allāh; nay, but you are a people that are being tested." (An-Naml 27:47) | قَالُوا اطَّيَّرْنَا بِكَ وَبِمَنْ مَعَكَ قَالَ طَائِرُكُمْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ بَلْ أَنْتُمْ قَوْم ٌ تُفْتَنُونَ |

(An-Naml 27:48) | وَكَانَ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ تِسْعَةُ رَهْط ٍ يُفْسِدُونَ فِي الأَرْضِ وَلاَ يُصْلِحُونَ |
