| Wa Laqad Nādānā Nūĥun Falani`ma Al-Mujībūna | 037.075 (In the days of old), Noah cried to Us, and We are the best to hear prayer. |

| 'Innā Kadhālika Najzī Al-Muĥsinīna | 037.080 Thus indeed do we reward those who do right. |
| 'Innahu Min `Ibādinā Al-Mu'uminīna | 037.081 For he was one of our believing Servants. |
| Thumma 'Aghraqnā Al-'Ākharīna | 037.082 Then the rest we overwhelmed in the Flood. |
| Wa 'Inna Min Shī`atihi La'ibrāhīma | 037.083 Verily among those who followed his Way was Abraham. |

| Farāgha `Alayhim Đarbāan Bil-Yamīni | 037.093 Then did he turn upon them, striking (them) with the right hand. |
| Fa'aqbalū 'Ilayhi Yaziffūna | 037.094 Then came (the worshippers) with hurried steps, and faced (him). |
| Qāla 'Ata`budūna Mā Tanĥitūna | 037.095 He said: "Worship ye that which ye have (yourselves) carved? |
| Wa Allāhu Khalaqakum Wa Mā Ta`malūna | 037.096 "But God has created you and your handwork!" |
| Qālū Abnū Lahu Bunyānāan Fa'alqūhu Fī Al-Jaĥīmi | 037.097 They said, "Build him a furnace, and throw him into the blazing fire!" |
| Fa'arādū Bihi Kaydāan Faja`alnāhumu Al-'Asfalīna | 037.098 (This failing), they then sought a stratagem against him, but We made them the ones most humiliated! |
| Wa Qāla 'Innī Dhāhibun 'Ilá Rabbī Sayahdīni | 037.099 He said: "I will go to my Lord! He will surely guide me! |

I see in vision that I offer thee in sacrifice: Now see what is thy view!" (The son) said: "O my father! Do as thou art commanded: thou will find me, if God so wills one practising Patience and Constancy!" |
| Falammā 'Aslamā Wa Tallahu Liljabīni | 037.103 So when they had both submitted their wills (to God), and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (for sacrifice), |
| Wa Nādaynāhu 'An Yā 'Ibrāhīmu | 037.104 We called out to him "O Abraham! |

| Kadhālika Najzī Al-Muĥsinīna | 037.110 Thus indeed do We reward those who do right. |
| 'Innahu Min `Ibādinā Al-Mu'uminīna | 037.111 For he was one of our believing Servants. |
| Wa Bashsharnāhu Bi'isĥāqa Nabīyāan Mina Aş-Şāliĥīna | 037.112 And We gave him the good news of Isaac - a prophet,- one of the Righteous. |

| Wa Laqad Manannā `Alá Mūsá Wa Hārūna | 037.114 Again (of old) We bestowed Our favour on Moses and Aaron, |

| 'Innā Kadhālika Najzī Al-Muĥsinīna | 037.121 Thus indeed do We reward those who do right. |
| 'Innahumā Min `Ibādinā Al-Mu'uminīna | 037.122 For they were two of our believing Servants. |
| Wa 'Inna 'Ilyāsa Lamina Al-Mursalīna | 037.123 So also was Elias among those sent (by Us). |
| 'Idh Qāla Liqawmihi 'Alā Tattaqūna | 037.124 Behold, he said to his people, "Will ye not fear (God)? |

| Wa 'Inna Lūţāan Lamina Al-Mursalīna | 037.133 So also was Lut among those sent (by Us). |
| 'Idh Najjaynāhu Wa 'Ahlahu 'Ajma`īna | 037.134 Behold, We delivered him and his adherents, all |
| 'Illā `Ajūzāan Fī Al-Ghābirīna | 037.135 Except an old woman who was among those who lagged behind: |
| Thumma Dammarnā Al-'Ākharīna | 037.136 Then We destroyed the rest. |

| Wa 'Inna Yūnis Lamina Al-Mursalīna | 037.139 So also was Jonah among those sent (by Us). |
| 'Idh 'Abaqa 'Ilá Al-Fulki Al-Mashĥūni | 037.140 When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden, |
| Fasāhama Fakāna Mina Al-Mudĥađīna | 037.141 He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned: |
| Fāltaqamahu Al-Ĥūtu Wa Huwa Mulīmun | 037.142 Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame. |
| Falawlā 'Annahu Kāna Mina Al-Musabbiĥīna | 037.143 Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified God, |
| Lalabitha Fī Baţnihi 'Ilá Yawmi Yub`athūna | 037.144 He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection. |
| Fanabadhnāhu Bil-`Arā'i Wa Huwa Saqīmun | 037.145 But We cast him forth on the naked shore in a state of sickness, |
| Wa 'Anbatnā `Alayhi Shajaratan Min Yaqţīnin | 037.146 And We caused to grow, over him, a spreading plant of the gourd kind. |
| Wa 'Arsalnāhu 'Ilá Miā'ati 'Alfin 'Aw Yazīdūna | 037.147 And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred thousand (men) or more. |

| Fāstaftihim 'Alirabbika Al-Banātu Wa Lahumu Al-Banūna | 037.149 Now ask them their opinion: Is it that thy Lord has (only) daughters, and they have sons?- |
| 'Am Khalaqnā Al-Malā'ikata 'Ināthāan Wa Hum Shāhidūna | 037.150 Or that We created the angels female, and they are witnesses (thereto)? |
| 'Alā 'Innahum Min 'Ifkihim Layaqūlūna | 037.151 Is it not that they say, from their own invention, |

| 'Āşţafá Al-Banāti `Alá Al-Banīna | 037.153 Did He (then) choose daughters rather than sons? |
| Mā Lakum Kayfa Taĥkumūna | 037.154 What is the matter with you? How judge ye? |
| 'Afalā Tadhakkarūn | 037.155 Will ye not then receive admonition? |
| 'Am Lakum Sulţānun Mubīnun | 037.156 Or have ye an authority manifest? |

| Wa Ja`alū Baynahu Wa Bayna Al-Jinnati Nasabāan Wa Laqad `Alimati Al-Jinnatu 'Innahum Lamuĥđarūna | 037.158 And they have invented a blood-relationship between Him and the Jinns: but the Jinns know (quite well) that they have indeed to appear (before his Judgment-Seat)! |
