رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِيْ وَلِوَالِدَيَّ وَلِمَنْ دَخَلَ بَيْتِيَ مُؤْمِنًا وَّلِلْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ وَالْمُؤْمِنٰتِ۝۰ۭ وَلَا تَزِدِ الظّٰلِـمِيْنَ اِلَّا تَبَارًا۝۲۸ۧ
Rabbi ighfir lee waliwalidayya waliman dakhala baytiya muminan walilmumineena waalmuminati wala tazidi alththalimeena illa tabaran

English

Ahmed Ali

O Lord, forgive me, my parents, and any one who enters my house as a believer, and all believing men and women, and do not give the evil-doers increase save in ruin.

٧٢ - ٱلْجِنّ

72 - Al-Jinn

قُلْ اُوْحِيَ اِلَيَّ اَنَّہُ اسْتَـمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِّنَ الْجِنِّ فَقَالُوْۗا اِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْاٰنًا عَجَــبًا۝۱ۙ
Qul oohiya ilayya annahu istamaAAa nafarun mina aljinni faqaloo inna samiAAna quranan AAajaban

English

Ahmed Ali

SAY: "I HAVE been informed that a number of jinns had listened; then said: 'We have heard the wondrous Qur'an,

1

يَّہْدِيْۗ اِلَى الرُّشْدِ فَاٰمَنَّا بِہٖ۝۰ۭ وَلَنْ نُّشْرِكَ بِرَبِّنَاۗ اَحَدًا۝۲ۙ
Yahdee ila alrrushdi faamanna bihi walan nushrika birabbina ahadan

English

Ahmed Ali

Which guides to the right path; and we have come to believe in it, and will not associate any one with our Lord.

2

وَّاَنَّہٗ تَعٰلٰى جَدُّ رَبِّنَا مَا اتَّخَذَ صَاحِبَۃً وَّلَا وَلَدًا۝۳ۙ
Waannahu taAAala jaddu rabbina ma ittakhatha sahibatan wala waladan

English

Ahmed Ali

Exalted is the glory of our Lord; He has neither wife nor son.

3

وَّ اَنَّہٗ كَانَ يَقُوْلُ سَفِيْہُنَا عَلَي اللہِ شَطَطًا۝۴ۙ
Waannahu kana yaqoolu safeehuna AAala Allahi shatatan

English

Ahmed Ali

Certainly the foolish among us say preposterous things of God.

4

وَّاَنَّا ظَنَنَّاۗ اَنْ لَّنْ تَقُوْلَ الْاِنْسُ وَالْجِنُّ عَلَي اللہِ كَذِبًا۝۵ۙ
Waanna thananna an lan taqoola alinsu waaljinnu AAala Allahi kathiban

English

Ahmed Ali

We had in fact thought that men and jinns would never speak a lie about God,

5

وَّاَنَّہٗ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِّنَ الْاِنْسِ يَعُوْذُوْنَ بِرِجَالٍ مِّنَ الْجِنِّ فَزَادُوْہُمْ رَہَقًا۝۶ۙ
Waannahu kana rijalun mina alinsi yaAAoothoona birijalin mina aljinni fazadoohum rahaqan

English

Ahmed Ali

But some men used to seek refuge with some jinns, and this increased their waywardness;

6

وَّاَنَّہُمْ ظَنُّوْا كَـمَا ظَنَنْتُمْ اَنْ لَّنْ يَّبْعَثَ اللہُ اَحَدًا۝۷ۙ
Waannahum thannoo kama thanantum an lan yabAAatha Allahu ahadan

English

Ahmed Ali

So they began to think, even as you do, that God would not resurrect any one.

7

وَّاَنَّا لَمَسْـنَا السَّمَاۗءَ فَوَجَدْنٰہَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِيْدًا وَّشُہُبًا۝۸ۙ
Waanna lamasna alssamaa fawajadnaha muliat harasan shadeedan washuhuban

English

Ahmed Ali

We sought to pry into the secrets of the heavens, but found it full of fierce guards and shooting flames.

8

وَّاَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْہَا مَقَاعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ۝۰ۭ فَمَنْ يَّسْتَمِـــعِ الْاٰنَ يَجِدْ لَہٗ شِہَابًا رَّصَدًا۝۹ۙ
Waanna kunna naqAAudu minha maqaAAida lilssamAAi faman yastamiAAi alana yajid lahu shihaban rasadan

English

Ahmed Ali

We sat in observatories to listen; but any one who listened found a shooting star in wait for him.
