As-Sajdah

Umurongo: 1

الٓمٓ

1. Alif Laam Meem¹.

1. See footnote to Qur’an chapter2: Verse1.

Umurongo: 2

تَنزِيلُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ لَا رَيۡبَ فِيهِ مِن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

2. The revelation of the Book 'Qur’an', there is no doubt about it, is from 'Allāh' the Lord of all beings.

Umurongo: 3

أَمۡ يَقُولُونَ ٱفۡتَرَىٰهُۚ بَلۡ هُوَ ٱلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ لِتُنذِرَ قَوۡمٗا مَّآ أَتَىٰهُم مِّن نَّذِيرٖ مِّن قَبۡلِكَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَهۡتَدُونَ

3. Or do they say that he 'Muhammad' has invented it 'the Qur’an'? Rather, it is the Truth from 'Allāh' your Lord, that you may warn a people to whom no warner has come before you, that they may be guided.

Umurongo: 4

ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٖ ثُمَّ ٱسۡتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلۡعَرۡشِۖ مَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِهِۦ مِن وَلِيّٖ وَلَا شَفِيعٍۚ أَفَلَا تَتَذَكَّرُونَ

4. It is Allāh Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six days, then rose over the Throne. You have no besides Him any protector or intercessor. Will you not then take heed?

Umurongo: 5

يُدَبِّرُ ٱلۡأَمۡرَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ثُمَّ يَعۡرُجُ إِلَيۡهِ فِي يَوۡمٖ كَانَ مِقۡدَارُهُۥٓ أَلۡفَ سَنَةٖ مِّمَّا تَعُدُّونَ

5. He rules and regulates every affair 'of His creation' from the heaven to the earth 'with Perfection and Wisdom'; then every affair ascends to Him on a Day whose length is a thousand years by your counting.

Umurongo: 6

ذَٰلِكَ عَٰلِمُ ٱلۡغَيۡبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

6. That is 'Allāh' the Knower of the unseen and the seen, the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful,

Umurongo: 7

ٱلَّذِيٓ أَحۡسَنَ كُلَّ شَيۡءٍ خَلَقَهُۥۖ وَبَدَأَ خَلۡقَ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنِ مِن طِينٖ

7. Who perfected everything that He has created², and He began the creation of man from clay.

2. The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him, has taught us that we should perfect every single action we do. He said: “Allāh loves that if one does a job he perfects it.” The word ‘aml, translated in this hadith as job, can literally be any action that we perform. Thereby, one can turn any ordinary work into an act of worship that Allāh loves as long as you put all your effort into perfecting it and as long as one does it for the sake of Allāh.

Umurongo: 8

ثُمَّ جَعَلَ نَسۡلَهُۥ مِن سُلَٰلَةٖ مِّن مَّآءٖ مَّهِينٖ

8. Then He made his offspring out of an extract of insignificant fluid.

Umurongo: 9

ثُمَّ سَوَّىٰهُ وَنَفَخَ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِهِۦۖ وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرَ وَٱلۡأَفۡـِٔدَةَۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تَشۡكُرُونَ

9. Then He formed him properly, and (ordered the angels to) breathe into him his soul 'created' by Him. And He made for you hearing, sight, and intellect. Little is it that you give thanks 'to Him'.

Umurongo: 10

وَقَالُوٓاْ أَءِذَا ضَلَلۡنَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَءِنَّا لَفِي خَلۡقٖ جَدِيدِۭۚ بَلۡ هُم بِلِقَآءِ رَبِّهِمۡ كَٰفِرُونَ

10. And they say: "When we have become disintegrated within the earth, shall we then be created anew?" Rather, they are deniers of the Meeting of their Lord 'Allāh'.

Umurongo: 11

۞ قُلۡ يَتَوَفَّىٰكُم مَّلَكُ ٱلۡمَوۡتِ ٱلَّذِي وُكِّلَ بِكُمۡ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمۡ تُرۡجَعُونَ

11. Say: "The angel of death, who is set in charge over you, will take your souls, then to 'Allāh' your Lord you will be all returned."
