بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Innaa kazaalika najzil muhsineen
Thus do We reward the good-doers.
إِنَّهُمَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Innahumaa min 'ibaadinal mu'mineen
Surely both of them were among Our believing servants.
وَإِنَّ إِلْيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Wa inna Ilyaasa laminal mursaleen
Surely, Elias too was among the Messengers.
إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Iz qaala liqawmiheee alaa tattaqoon
(Call to mind) when he said to his people: “Will you not fear Allah?
أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلًۭا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ ٱلْخَٰلِقِينَ
Atad'oona Ba'lanw wa tazaroona ahsanal khaaliqeen
Do you call upon Baal and forsake the Best of the Creators?
ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Allaaha Rabbakum wa Rabba aabaaa'ikumul awwaleen
Allah is your Lord and the Lord of your ancestors of yore.”
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
Fakazzaboohu fa inna hum lamuhdaroon
But they denounced him as a liar, so they will surely be arraigned (for punishment),
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
Illaa 'ibaadal laahil mukhlaseen
except Allah's chosen servants.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ
Wa taraknaa 'alaihi fil aakhireen
We preserved a good name for him among posterity.
سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلْ يَاسِينَ
Salaamun 'alaaa Ilyaaseen
Peace be upon Elias.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Innaa kazaalika najzil muhsineen
Thus do We reward the good-doers.
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Innahoo min 'ibaadinal mu'mineen
He was one of Our believing servants.
وَإِنَّ لُوطًۭا لَّمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Wa inna Lootal laminal mursaleen
And Lot too was one of the Messengers.
إِذْ نَجَّيْنَٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ
Iz najjainaahu wa ahlahooo ajma'een
(Call to mind) when We delivered him and all his kinsfolk,
إِلَّا عَجُوزًۭا فِى ٱلْغَٰبِرِينَ
Illaa 'ajoozan fil ghaabireen
except for an old woman who was among those that stayed behind.
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْءَاخَرِينَ
Summa dammarnal aakhareen
Then We utterly destroyed the rest of them.
وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ
Wa innakum latamurroona 'alaihim musbiheen
You pass by their desolate habitations in the morning
وَبِٱلَّيْلِ ۗ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
Wa billail; afalaa ta'qiloon
and at night. Do you still not understand?
وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
Wa inna Yoonusa laminal mursaleen
And Jonah too was one of the Messengers.
إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ ٱلْمَشْحُونِ
Iz abaqa ilal fulkil mash hoon
Call to mind when he fled to the laden ship,
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُدْحَضِينَ
Fasaahama fakaana minal mudhadeen
cast lots, and was among the losers.
فَٱلْتَقَمَهُ ٱلْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌۭ
Faltaqamahul hootu wa huwa muleem
Then a fish swallowed him, and he was blameworthy.
فَلَوْلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَبِّحِينَ
Falaw laaa annahoo kaana minal musabbiheen
Had he not been one of those who glorify Allah,
لَلَبِثَ فِى بَطْنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
Lalabisa fee batniheee ilaa Yawmi yub'asoon
he would certainly have remained in its belly till the Day of Resurrection.
۞ فَنَبَذْنَٰهُ بِٱلْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌۭ
Fanabaznaahu bil'araaa'i wa huwa saqeem
But We threw him on a wide bare tract of land while he was ill;
وَأَنۢبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةًۭ مِّن يَقْطِينٍۢ
Wa ambatnaa 'alaihi shajaratam mai yaqteen
and caused a gourd tree to grow over him,
وَأَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِا۟ئَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ
Wa arsalnaahu ilaa mi'ati alfin aw yazeedoon
and We sent him forth to a nation of a hundred thousand or more,
فَـَٔامَنُوا۟ فَمَتَّعْنَٰهُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍۢ
Fa aamanoo famatta' naahum ilaa heen
and they believed. So We let them enjoy life for a while.
فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ
Fastaftihim ali Rabbikal banaatu wa lahumul banoon
So ask their opinion: “(Are you convinced) that your Lord should have daughters and you should have sons?
أَمْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثًۭا وَهُمْ شَٰهِدُونَ
Am khalaqnal malaaa'i kata inaasanw wa hm shaahidoon
Did We create the angels as females the while they witnessed?”
