Ayah: 1

1. Alif Laam Ra¹.(This is) a Book, whose Verses have been perfected, then explained in detail from One Who is All-Wise, All-Aware.

Ayah: 2

أَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوٓاْ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَۚ إِنَّنِي لَكُم مِّنۡهُ نَذِيرٞ وَبَشِيرٞ

2. (Clearly stating) that: You (people) should Worship none but Allāh only. I (Muhammad) am a warner to you from Him and a giver of good news.

Ayah: 3

وَأَنِ ٱسۡتَغۡفِرُواْ رَبَّكُمۡ ثُمَّ تُوبُوٓاْ إِلَيۡهِ يُمَتِّعۡكُم مَّتَٰعًا حَسَنًا إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٖ مُّسَمّٗى وَيُؤۡتِ كُلَّ ذِي فَضۡلٖ فَضۡلَهُۥۖ وَإِن تَوَلَّوۡاْ فَإِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ عَذَابَ يَوۡمٖ كَبِيرٍ

3. And (saying) that, seek forgiveness from your Lord 'Allāh', then turn to Him (in repentance); He will let you enjoy fair enjoyment (with a goodly provision) until an appointed term, and will give His 'abundant' grace on all who have virtues. But if you turn away, then I fear for you the torment of a great Day.

Ayah: 4

إِلَى ٱللَّهِ مَرۡجِعُكُمۡۖ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ قَدِيرٌ

4. To Allāh is your return, and He has full Power over all things.

Ayah: 5

أَلَآ إِنَّهُمۡ يَثۡنُونَ صُدُورَهُمۡ لِيَسۡتَخۡفُواْ مِنۡهُۚ أَلَا حِينَ يَسۡتَغۡشُونَ ثِيَابَهُمۡ يَعۡلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعۡلِنُونَۚ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِيمُۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ

5. Undoubtedly, they (the unbelievers) fold up what is in their chests that they may conceal from Him. Undoubtedly! When they cover themselves with their garments (in order not to see or hear), He knows what they conceal or reveal. Surely, He is All-Knower of what is in the chests.
