Ya, Seen.

Wal-Qur-aanil-Hakeem

By the wise Qur'an.

Innaka laminal mursaleen

Indeed you, [O Muhammad], are from among the messengers,

'Alaa Siraatim Mustaqeem

On a straight path.

Tanzeelal 'Azeezir Raheem

[This is] a revelation of the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

Litunzira qawmam maaa unzira aabaaa'uhum fahum ghaafiloon

That you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are unaware.

Laqad haqqal qawlu 'alaaa aksarihim fahum laa yu'minoon

Already the word has come into effect upon most of them, so they do not believe.

Innaa ja'alnaa feee a'naaqihim aghlaalan fahiya ilal azqaani fahum muqmahoon

Indeed, We have put shackles on their necks, and they are to their chins, so they are with heads [kept] aloft.

Wa ja'alnaa mim baini aydeehim saddanw-wa min khalfihim saddan fa aghshai naahum fahum laa yubsiroon

And We have put before them a barrier and behind them a barrier and covered them, so they do not see.

Wa sawaaa'un 'alaihim 'a-anzartahum am lam tunzirhum laa yu'minoon

And it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.

Innamaa tunziru manit taba 'az-Zikra wa khashiyar Rahmaana bilghaib, fabashshirhu bimaghfiratinw-wa ajrin kareem

You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward.

Innaa Nahnu nuhyil mawtaa wa naktubu maa qaddamoo wa aasaarahum; wa kulla shai'in ahsainaahu feee Imaamim Mubeen

Indeed, it is We who bring the dead to life and record what they have put forth and what they left behind, and all things We have enumerated in a clear register.

Wadrib lahum masalan Ashaabal Qaryatih; iz jaaa'ahal mursaloon

And present to them an example: the people of the city, when the messengers came to it -

Iz arsalnaaa ilaihimusnaini fakazzaboohumaa fa'azzaznaa bisaalisin faqaalooo innaaa ilaikum mursaloon

When We sent to them two but they denied them, so We strengthened them with a third, and they said, "Indeed, we are messengers to you."

Qaaloo maaa antum illaa basharum mislunaa wa maaa anzalar Rahmaanu min shai'in in antum illaa takziboon

They said, "You are not but human beings like us, and the Most Merciful has not revealed a thing. You are only telling lies."

Qaaloo Rabbunaa ya'lamu innaaa ilaikum lamursaloon

They said, "Our Lord knows that we are messengers to you,

Wa maa 'alainaaa illal balaaghul mubeen

And we are not responsible except for clear notification."

Qaaloo innaa tataiyarnaa bikum la'il-lam tantahoo lanar jumannakum wa la-yamassan nakum minnaa 'azaabun aleem

They said, "Indeed, we consider you a bad omen. If you do not desist, we will surely stone you, and there will surely touch you, from us, a painful punishment."

Qaaloo taaa'irukum ma'akum; a'in zukkirtum; bal antum qawmum musrifoon

They said, "Your omen is with yourselves. Is it because you were reminded? Rather, you are a transgressing people."

Wa jaaa'a min aqsal madeenati rajuluny yas'aa qaala yaa qawmit tabi'ul mursaleen

And there came from the farthest end of the city a man, running. He said, "O my people, follow the messengers.

Ittabi'oo mal-laa yas'alukum ajranw-wa hum muhtadoon

Follow those who do not ask of you [any] payment, and they are [rightly] guided.

Wa maa liya laaa a'budul lazee fataranee wa ilaihi turja'oon

And why should I not worship He who created me and to whom you will be returned?

'A-attakhizu min dooniheee aalihatan iny-yuridnir Rahmaanu bidurril-laa tughni 'annee shafaa 'atuhum shai 'anw-wa laa yunqizoon

Should I take other than Him [false] deities [while], if the Most Merciful intends for me some adversity, their intercession will not avail me at all, nor can they save me?

Inneee izal-lafee dalaa-lim-mubeen

Indeed, I would then be in manifest error.

Inneee aamantu bi Rabbikum fasma'oon

Indeed, I have believed in your Lord, so listen to me."

Qeelad khulil Jannnah; qaala yaa laita qawmee ya'lamoon

It was said, "Enter Paradise." He said, "I wish my people could know

Bimaa ghafara lee Rabbee wa ja'alanee minal mukrameen

Of how my Lord has forgiven me and placed me among the honored."

Wa maaa anzalnaa 'alaa qawmihee mim ba'dihee min jundim minas-samaaa'i wa maa kunnaa munzileen

And We did not send down upon his people after him any soldiers from the heaven, nor would We have done so.

In kaanat illaa saihatanw waahidatan fa-izaa hum khaamidoon

It was not but one shout, and immediately they were extinguished.

Yaa hasratan 'alal 'ibaad; maa yaateehim mir Rasoolin illaa kaanoo bihee yastahzi 'oon

How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him.
