Who hath created life and death that He may try you which of you is best in conduct; and He is the Mighty, the Forgiving,
Allazee khalaqal mawta walhayaata liyabluwakum ayyukum ahsanu 'amalaa; wa huwal 'azeezul ghafoor
Who hath created seven heavens in harmony. Thou (Muhammad) canst see no fault in the Beneficent One's creation; then look again: Canst thou see any rifts?
Allazee khalaqa sab'a samaawaatin tibaaqam maa taraa fee khalqir rahmaani min tafaawutin farji'il basara hal taraa min futoor
Then look again and yet again, thy sight will return unto thee weakened and made dim.

As it would burst with rage. Whenever a (fresh) host is flung therein the wardens thereof ask them: Came there unto you no warner?
Takaadu tamayyazu minal ghaizi kullamaaa uliqya feehaa fawjun sa alahum khazanatuhaaa alam yaatikum nazeer
They say: Yea, verily, a warner came unto us; but we denied and said: Allah hath naught revealed; ye are in naught but a great error.
Qaaloo balaa qad jaaa'anaa nazeerun fakazzabnaa wa qulnaa maa nazzalal laahu min shai in in antum illaa fee dalaalin kabeer
And they say: Had we been wont to listen or have sense, we had not been among the dwellers in the flames.
Wa qaaloo law kunnaa nasma'u awna'qilu maa kunnaa feee as haabis sa'eer
So they acknowledge their sins; but far removed (from mercy) are the dwellers in the flames.
Fa'tarafoo bizambihim fasuhqal li as haabis sa'eer
Lo! those who fear their Lord in secret, theirs will be forgiveness and a great reward.
Innal lazeena yakhshawna rabbahum bilghaibi lahum maghfiratunw wa ajrun kabeer
And keep your opinion secret or proclaim it, lo! He is Knower of all that is in the breasts (of men).
Wa asirroo qawlakum awijharoo bihee innahoo 'aleemum bizaatis sudoor
Should He not know what He created? And He is the Subtile, the Aware.
Alaa ya'lamu man khalaq wa huwal lateeful khabeer
He it is Who hath made the earth subservient unto you, so Walk in the paths thereof and eat of His providence. And unto Him will be the resurrection (of the dead).
Huwal lazee ja'ala lakumul arda zaloolan famshoo fee manaakibihaa wa kuloo mir rizqihee wa ilaihin nushoor

Am amintum man fissamaaa'i ai yursila 'alaikum haasiban fasata'lamoona kaifa nazeer
And verily those before them denied, then (see) the manner of My wrath (with them)!
Wa laqad kazzabal lazeena min qablihim fakaifa kaana nakeer
Have they not seen the birds above them spreading out their wings and closing them? Naught upholdeth them save the Beneficent. Lo! He is Seer of all things.
Awalam yaraw ilat tairi fawqahum saaaffaatinw wa yaqbidn; maa yumsikuhunna illaar rahmaan; innahoo bikulli shai im baseer
Or who is he that will be an army unto you to help you instead of the Beneficent? The disbelievers are in naught but illusion.
Amman haazal lazee huwa jundul lakum yansurukum min doonir rahmaan; inilkaafiroona illaa fee ghuroor
Or who is he that will provide for you if He should withhold His providence? Nay, but they are set in pride and frowardness.
Amman haazal lazee yarzuqukum in amsaka rizqah; bal lajjoo fee 'utuwwinw wa nufoor
Is he who goeth groping on his face more rightly guided, or he who walketh upright on a straight road?
Afamai yamshee mukibban 'alaa wajhihee ahdaaa ammany yamshee sawiyyan 'alaa siratim mustaqeem
Say (unto them, O Muhammad): He it is who gave you being, and hath assigned unto you ears and eyes and hearts. Small thanks give ye!

Falaammaa ra-awhu zulfatan seee'at wujoohul lazeena kafaroo wa qeela haazal lazee kuntum bihee tadda'oon
