الۗمّۗرٰ۝۰ۣ تِلْكَ اٰيٰتُ الْكِتٰبِ۝۰ۭ وَالَّذِيْۗ اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ الْحَقُّ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ۝۱
Aliflammeemra tilka ayatu alkitabi waallathee onzila ilayka min rabbika alhaqqu walakinna akthara alnnasi la yuminoona

English

Ahmed Ali

ALIF LAM MIM RA. These are the verses of the Scripture. Whatsoever is sent down to you from your Lord is the truth; but most men do not believe.

1

اَللہُ الَّذِيْ رَفَعَ السَّمٰوٰتِ بِغَيْرِ عَمَدٍ تَرَوْنَہَا ثُمَّ اسْتَوٰى عَلَي الْعَرْشِ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ۝۰ۭ كُلٌّ يَّجْرِيْ لِاَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى۝۰ۭ يُدَبِّرُ الْاَمْرَ يُفَصِّلُ الْاٰيٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ بِلِقَاۗءِ رَبِّكُمْ تُوْقِنُوْنَ۝۲
Allahu allathee rafaAAa alssamawati bighayri AAamadin tarawnaha thumma istawa AAala alAAarshi wasakhkhara alshshamsa waalqamara kullun yajree liajalin musamman yudabbiru alamra yufassilu alayati laAAallakum biliqai rabbikum tooqinoona

English

Ahmed Ali

It is God who raised the skies without support, as you can see, then assumed His throne, and enthralled the sun and the moon (so that) each runs to a predetermined course. He disposes all affairs, distinctly explaining every sign that you may be certain of the meeting with your Lord.

2

وَہُوَالَّذِيْ مَدَّ الْاَرْضَ وَجَعَلَ فِيْہَا رَوَاسِيَ وَاَنْہٰرًا۝۰ۭ وَمِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرٰتِ جَعَلَ فِيْہَا زَوْجَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ يُغْشِي الَّيْلَ النَّہَارَ۝۰ۭ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَّتَفَكَّرُوْنَ۝۳
Wahuwa allathee madda alarda wajaAAala feeha rawasiya waanharan wamin kulli alththamarati jaAAala feeha zawjayni ithnayni yughshee allayla alnnahara inna fee thalika laayatin liqawmin yatafakkaroona

English

Ahmed Ali

It is He who stretched the earth and placed upon it stabilisers and rivers; and made two of a pair of every fruit; (and) He covers up the day with the night. In these are signs for those who reflect.

3

وَفِي الْاَرْضِ قِطَعٌ مُّتَجٰوِرٰتٌ وَّجَنّٰتٌ مِّنْ اَعْنَابٍ وَّزَرْعٌ وَّنَخِيْلٌ صِنْوَانٌ وَّغَيْرُ صِنْوَانٍ يُّسْقٰى بِمَاۗءٍ وَّاحِدٍ۝۰ۣ وَنُفَضِّلُ بَعْضَہَا عَلٰي بَعْضٍ فِي الْاُكُلِ۝۰ۭ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَّعْقِلُوْنَ۝۴
Wafee alardi qitaAAun mutajawiratun wajannatun min aAAnabin wazarAAun wanakheelun sinwanun waghayru sinwanin yusqa bimain wahidin wanufaddilu baAAdaha AAala baAAdin fee alokuli inna fee thalika laayatin liqawmin yaAAqiloona

English

Ahmed Ali

On the earth are tracts adjoining one another, and vineyards, fields of corn and date-palm trees, some forked, some with single trunks, yet all irrigated by the self-same water, though We make some more excellent than the others in fruit. There are surely signs in them for those who understand.

4

وَاِنْ تَعْجَبْ فَعَجَبٌ قَوْلُہُمْ ءَ اِذَا كُنَّا تُرٰبًا ءَ اِنَّا لَفِيْ خَلْقٍ جَدِيْدٍ۝۰ۥۭ اُولٰۗىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِرَبِّہِمْ۝۰ۚ وَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ الْاَغْلٰلُ فِيْۗ اَعْنَاقِہِمْ۝۰ۚ وَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ اَصْحٰبُ النَّارِ۝۰ۚ ہُمْ فِيْہَا خٰلِدُوْنَ۝۵
Wain taAAjab faAAajabun qawluhum aitha kunna turaban ainna lafee khalqin jadeedin olaika allatheena kafaroo birabbihim waolaika alaghlalu fee aAAnaqihim waolaika ashabu alnnari hum feeha khalidoona

English

Ahmed Ali

If you are surprised, then astonishing is the speech (of those who say:) "Having turned to dust shall we be raised as a new creation?" They are the ones who deny their Lord, and they will have collars around their necks. They are the inmates of Hell, where they will abide for ever.

5

وَيَسْتَعْجِلُوْنَكَ بِالسَّيِّـئَۃِ قَبْلَ الْحَسَـنَۃِ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِہِمُ الْمَثُلٰتُ۝۰ۭ وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُوْ مَغْفِرَۃٍ لِّلنَّاسِ عَلٰي ظُلْمِہِمْ۝۰ۚ وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَشَدِيْدُ الْعِقَابِ۝۶
WayastaAAjiloonaka bialssayyiati qabla alhasanati waqad khalat min qablihimu almathulatu wainna rabbaka lathoo maghfiratin lilnnasi AAala thulmihim wainna rabbaka lashadeedu alAAiqabi

English

Ahmed Ali

They want you to hasten the evil before the good, even when there have been examples of retribution before them. Though certainly your Lord forgives human beings for their iniquities, your Lord is severe of retribution.

6

وَيَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَوْلَاۗ اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْہِ اٰيَۃٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّہٖ۝۰ۭ اِنَّمَاۗ اَنْتَ مُنْذِرٌ وَّ لِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ ہَادٍ۝۷ۧ
Wayaqoolu allatheena kafaroo lawla onzila AAalayhi ayatun min rabbihi innama anta munthirun walikulli qawmin hadin

English

Ahmed Ali

The unbelievers say: "Why no miracle was sent down to him by his Lord?" But you are only a bearer of warnings, and a guide for every nation.

7

اَللہُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَحْمِلُ كُلُّ اُنْثٰى وَمَا تَغِيْضُ الْاَرْحَامُ وَمَا تَزْدَادُ۝۰ۭ وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ عِنْدَہٗ بِمِقْدَارٍ۝۸
Allahu yaAAlamu ma tahmilu kullu ontha wama tagheedu alarhamu wama tazdadu wakullu shayin AAindahu bimiqdarin

English

Ahmed Ali

God is cognisant of what every female carries in her womb, or what the wombs want or exceed (of their disburdening time). With Him all things are in determined measure.

8

عٰلِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّہَادَۃِ الْكَبِيْرُ الْمُتَعَالِ۝۹
AAalimu alghaybi waalshshahadati alkabeeru almutaAAali

English

Ahmed Ali

He is the knower of the known and the unknown, the mighty and most high.

9

سَوَاۗءٌ مِّنْكُمْ مَّنْ اَسَرَّ الْقَوْلَ وَمَنْ جَہَرَ بِہٖ وَمَنْ ہُوَمُسْتَخْفٍؚبِالَّيْلِ وَسَارِبٌۢ بِالنَّہَارِ۝۱۰
Sawaon minkum man asarra alqawla waman jahara bihi waman huwa mustakhfin biallayli wasaribun bialnnahari

English

Ahmed Ali

He who keeps his secret among you is the same to Him as he who speaks out publicly, and he who hides himself in the night and walks freely in the day.
