23 - Al-Mu'minoon

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا اِلٰى قَوْمِہٖ فَقَالَ يٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللہَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰہٍ غَيْرُہٗ۝۰ۭ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ۝۲۳
Walaqad arsalna noohan ila qawmihi faqala ya qawmi oAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoona

English

Ahmed Ali

We sent Noah to his people. He said: "O my people, worship God, for you have no other god but He. Will you not take heed for yourselves?"

23

فَقَالَ الْمَلَؤُا الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ قَوْمِہٖ مَا ھٰذَاۗ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ۝۰ۙ يُرِيْدُ اَنْ يَّتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ۝۰ۭ وَلَوْ شَاۗءَ اللہُ لَاَنْزَلَ مَلٰۗىِٕكَۃً۝۰ۚۖ مَّا سَمِعْنَا بِھٰذَا فِيْۗ اٰبَاۗىِٕنَا الْاَوَّلِيْنَ۝۲۴ۚ
Faqala almalao allatheena kafaroo min qawmihi ma hatha illa basharun mithlukum yureedu an yatafaddala AAalaykum walaw shaa Allahu laanzala malaikatan ma samiAAna bihatha fee abaina alawwaleena

English

Ahmed Ali

The chiefs of his people, who did not believe, said: "He is only a man like you. He wishes to acquire ascendancy over you. If God had willed He would have sent down angels. We never heard this from our elders.

24

اِنْ ہُوَ اِلَّا رَجُلٌۢ بِہٖ جِنَّۃٌ فَتَرَبَّصُوْا بِہٖ حَتّٰى حِيْنٍ۝۲۵
In huwa illa rajulun bihi jinnatun fatarabbasoo bihi hatta heenin

English

Ahmed Ali

He is only a man possessed; so wait and watch him for a time."

25

قَالَ رَبِّ انْصُرْنِيْ بِمَا كَذَّبُوْنِ۝۲۶
Qala rabbi onsurnee bima kaththabooni

English

Ahmed Ali

"O my Lord," prayed (Noah), "help me against them, for they accuse me of lies."

26

فَاَوْحَيْنَاۗ اِلَيْہِ اَنِ اصْنَعِ الْفُلْكَ بِاَعْيُنِنَا وَ وَحْيِنَا فَاِذَا جَاۗءَ اَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ التَّنُّوْرُ۝۰ۙ فَاسْلُكْ فِيْہَا مِنْ كُلٍّ زَوْجَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ وَاَہْلَكَ اِلَّا مَنْ سَبَقَ عَلَيْہِ الْقَوْلُ مِنْہُمْ۝۰ۚ وَلَا تُخَاطِبْنِيْ فِي الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْا۝۰ۚ اِنَّہُمْ مُّغْرَقُوْنَ۝۲۷
Faawhayna ilayhi ani isnaAAi alfulka biaAAyunina wawahyina faitha jaa amruna wafara alttannooru faosluk feeha min kullin zawjayni ithnayni waahlaka illa man sabaqa AAalayhi alqawlu minhum wala tukhatibnee fee allatheena thalamoo innahum mughraqoona

English

Ahmed Ali

So We asked him to build the ark under Our eyes and guidance, (and said): "When Our command is issued and the source of water boils over, put a pair of every species in it, and your family except those for whom Our sentence has been passed already; and do not speak to Me for those who are wicked: They will be drowned.

27

فَاِذَا اسْتَوَيْتَ اَنْتَ وَمَنْ مَّعَكَ عَلَي الْفُلْكِ فَقُلِ الْـحَمْدُ لِلہِ الَّذِيْ نَجّٰىنَا مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِـمِيْنَ۝۲۸
Faitha istawayta anta waman maAAaka AAala alfulki faquli alhamdu lillahi allathee najjana mina alqawmi alththalimeena

English

Ahmed Ali

When you and those with you have boarded the ark, say: 'All praise be to God who has delivered us from the people who were sinful.'

28

وَقُلْ رَّبِّ اَنْزِلْنِيْ مُنْزَلًا مُّبٰرَكًا وَّاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْمُنْزِلِيْنَ۝۲۹
Waqul rabbi anzilnee munzalan mubarakan waanta khayru almunzileena

English

Ahmed Ali

And say: 'O Lord, disembark me in a welcome place; You are the best of deliverers.'

29

اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ وَّاِنْ كُنَّا لَمُبْتَلِيْنَ۝۳۰
Inna fee thalika laayatin wain kunna lamubtaleena

English

Ahmed Ali

There were surely signs in this; We will surely put you to the test.

30

ثُمَّ اَنْشَاْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِہِمْ قَرْنًا اٰخَرِيْنَ۝۳۱ۚ
Thumma anshana min baAAdihim qarnan akhareena

English

Ahmed Ali

After them We raised a new generation.

31

فَاَرْسَلْنَا فِيْہِمْ رَسُوْلًا مِّنْہُمْ اَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللہَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰہٍ غَيْرُہٗ۝۰ۭ اَفَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَ۝۳۲ۧ
Faarsalna feehim rasoolan minhum ani oAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhu afala tattaqoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Then We sent to them an apostle from among them (who said): "Worship God, for you have no other god but He. Will you not take heed and fear God?"
