వచనం: 86

أَئِفۡكًا ءَالِهَةٗ دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ

(86) Is it falsehood [as] gods other than Allāh you desire?

فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

(87) Then what is your thought about the Lord of the worlds?"

فَنَظَرَ نَظۡرَةٗ فِي ٱلنُّجُومِ

(88) And he cast a look at the stars

వచనం: 89

فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَقِيمٞ

(89) And said, "Indeed, I am [about to be] ill."

వచనం: 90

فَتَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ مُدۡبِرِينَ

(90) So they turned away from him, departing.

వచనం: 91

فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِهِمۡ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأۡكُلُونَ

(91) Then he turned to their gods and said, "Do you not eat?^[1295]

[1295]- Consume the offerings placed before them.

వచనం: 95

قَالَ أَتَعۡبُدُونَ مَا تَنۡحِتُونَ

(95) He said, "Do you worship that which you [yourselves] carve,

వచనం: 96

وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ

(96) While Allāh created you and that which you do?"

వచనం: 97

قَالُواْ ٱبۡنُواْ لَهُۥ بُنۡيَٰنٗا فَأَلۡقُوهُ فِي ٱلۡجَحِيمِ

(97) They said, "Construct for him a structure [i.e., furnace] and throw him into the burning fire."

వచనం: 98

فَأَرَادُواْ بِهِۦ كَيۡدٗا فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُمُ ٱلۡأَسۡفَلِينَ

(98) And they intended for him a plan [i.e., harm], but We made them the most debased.

వచనం: 99

وَقَالَ إِنِّي ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّي سَيَهۡدِينِ

(99) And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.

వచనం: 100

رَبِّ هَبۡ لِي مِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ

(100) My Lord, grant me [a child] from among the righteous."

వచనం: 101

فَبَشَّرۡنَٰهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ حَلِيمٖ

(101) So We gave him good tidings of a forbearing boy.

వచనం: 102

فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ ٱلسَّعۡيَ قَالَ يَٰبُنَيَّ إِنِّيٓ أَرَىٰ فِي ٱلۡمَنَامِ أَنِّيٓ أَذۡبَحُكَ فَٱنظُرۡ مَاذَا تَرَىٰۚ قَالَ يَٰٓأَبَتِ ٱفۡعَلۡ مَا تُؤۡمَرُۖ سَتَجِدُنِيٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ

(102) And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion,^[1296] he said, "O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think." He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allāh wills, of the steadfast."

[1296]- i.e., the ability to work and be of assistance.

వచనం: 103

فَلَمَّآ أَسۡلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلۡجَبِينِ

(103) And when they had both submitted^[1297] and he put him down upon his forehead,

[1297]- To the command of Allāh.

వచనం: 104

وَنَٰدَيۡنَٰهُ أَن يَٰٓإِبۡرَٰهِيمُ

(104) We called to him, "O Abraham,

వచనం: 105

قَدۡ صَدَّقۡتَ ٱلرُّءۡيَآۚ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

(105) You have fulfilled the vision." Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

వచనం: 106

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلۡبَلَٰٓؤُاْ ٱلۡمُبِينُ

(106) Indeed, this was the clear trial.

వచనం: 107

وَفَدَيۡنَٰهُ بِذِبۡحٍ عَظِيمٖ

(107) And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice,^[1298]

[1298]- Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā) sent a huge ram to be sacrificed in place of Ishmael.

వచనం: 108

وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ

(108) And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:

వచనం: 109

سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ

(109) "Peace upon Abraham."

వచనం: 110

كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

(110) Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

వచనం: 111

إِنَّهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

(111) Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.

వచనం: 112

وَبَشَّرۡنَٰهُ بِإِسۡحَٰقَ نَبِيّٗا مِّنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ

(112) And We gave him good tidings of Isaac, a prophet from among the righteous.^[1299]

[1299]- This verifies that the firstborn son who was to be sacrificed was Ishmael and not Isaac, as claimed by the Jews and Christians.

వచనం: 113

وَبَٰرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ وَعَلَىٰٓ إِسۡحَٰقَۚ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحۡسِنٞ وَظَالِمٞ لِّنَفۡسِهِۦ مُبِينٞ

(113) And We blessed him and Isaac. But among their descendants is the doer of good and the clearly unjust to himself [i.e., sinner].

వచనం: 114

وَلَقَدۡ مَنَنَّا عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ

(114) And We did certainly confer favor upon Moses and Aaron.

వచనం: 115

وَنَجَّيۡنَٰهُمَا وَقَوۡمَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلۡكَرۡبِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ

(115) And We saved them and their people from the great affliction,

వచనం: 116

وَنَصَرۡنَٰهُمۡ فَكَانُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ

(116) And We supported them so it was they who overcame.

వచనం: 117

وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُمَا ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ ٱلۡمُسۡتَبِينَ

(117) And We gave them the explicit Scripture [i.e., the Torah],

వచనం: 118

وَهَدَيۡنَٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمَ

(118) And We guided them on the straight path.

వచనం: 119

وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمَا فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ

(119) And We left for them [favorable mention] among later generations:

వచనం: 120

سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ

(120) "Peace upon Moses and Aaron."

వచనం: 121

إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

(121) Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

వచనం: 122

إِنَّهُمَا مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

(122) Indeed, they were of Our believing servants.

వచనం: 123

وَإِنَّ إِلۡيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

(123) And indeed, Elias was from among the messengers,

వచనం: 124

إِذۡ قَالَ لِقَوۡمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ

(124) When he said to his people, "Will you not fear Allāh?

వచనం: 125

أَتَدۡعُونَ بَعۡلٗا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحۡسَنَ ٱلۡخَٰلِقِينَ

(125) Do you call upon Baʿl^[1300] and leave the best of creators -

[1300]- The name of a great idol worshipped by the people and said to mean "lord."

వచనం: 126

ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمۡ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

(126) Allāh, your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers?"

వచనం: 127

فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُونَ

(127) And they denied him, so indeed, they will be brought [for punishment],

వచనం: 128

إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ

(128) Except the chosen servants of Allāh.

వచనం: 129

وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ

(129) And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:

వచనం: 130

سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلۡ يَاسِينَ

(130) "Peace upon Elias."^[1301]

[1301]- Ilyāseen is said by some commentators to be a plural form, meaning "Elias and those who followed him."

వచనం: 131

إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

(131) Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

వచనం: 132

إِنَّهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

(132) Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.

వచనం: 133

وَإِنَّ لُوطٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

(133) And indeed, Lot was among the messengers.

వచనం: 134

إِذۡ نَجَّيۡنَٰهُ وَأَهۡلَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ

(134) [So mention] when We saved him and his family, all,

వచనం: 135

إِلَّا عَجُوزٗا فِي ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ

(135) Except an old woman [i.e., his wife] among those who remained [with the evildoers].

వచనం: 136

ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ

(136) Then We destroyed the others.

వచనం: 137

وَإِنَّكُمۡ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيۡهِم مُّصۡبِحِينَ

(137) And indeed, you pass by them in the morning

వచనం: 138

وَبِٱلَّيۡلِۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ

(138) And at night. Then will you not use reason?

వచనం: 139

وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

(139) And indeed, Jonah was among the messengers.

వచనం: 140

إِذۡ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ

(140) [Mention] when he ran away to the laden ship.

వచనం: 141

فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُدۡحَضِينَ

(141) And he drew lots^[1302] and was among the losers.

[1302]- To determine who would be cast overboard in order to save the other passengers. Having been overloaded, the ship was on the verge of sinking.

వచనం: 142

فَٱلۡتَقَمَهُ ٱلۡحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٞ

(142) Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy.^[1303]

[1303]- For having given up hope on his people prematurely and having left them without permission from Allāh.

వచనం: 143

فَلَوۡلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحِينَ

(143) And had he not been of those who exalt Allāh,

వచనం: 144

لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطۡنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ

(144) He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected.^[1304]

[1304]- Meaning that the belly of the fish would have become his grave.

వచనం: 145

۞ فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٞ

(145) But We threw him onto the open shore while he was ill.

వచనం: 146

وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةٗ مِّن يَقۡطِينٖ

[1305]- Which is known to give cooling shade and to be a repellent of flies.

[1306]- i.e., returned him thereafter.

వచనం: 148

فَـَٔامَنُواْ فَمَتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ إِلَىٰ حِينٖ

(148) And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.

వచనం: 149

فَٱسۡتَفۡتِهِمۡ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلۡبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلۡبَنُونَ

(149) So inquire of them, [O Muḥammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?^[1307]

వచనం: 150

أَمۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثٗا وَهُمۡ شَٰهِدُونَ

(150) Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?"

వచనం: 151

أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنۡ إِفۡكِهِمۡ لَيَقُولُونَ

(151) Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say,

వచనం: 152

وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَكَٰذِبُونَ

(152) "Allāh has begotten," and indeed, they are liars.

వచనం: 153

أَصۡطَفَى ٱلۡبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلۡبَنِينَ

(153) Has He chosen daughters over sons?

వచనం: 154

مَا لَكُمۡ كَيۡفَ تَحۡكُمُونَ

(154) What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?

వచనం: 155

(155) Then will you not be reminded?

వచనం: 156

أَمۡ لَكُمۡ سُلۡطَٰنٞ مُّبِينٞ

(156) Or do you have a clear authority?^[1308]

[1308]- i.e., evidence.

వచనం: 157

فَأۡتُواْ بِكِتَٰبِكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ

(157) Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.

వచనం: 158

وَجَعَلُواْ بَيۡنَهُۥ وَبَيۡنَ ٱلۡجِنَّةِ نَسَبٗاۚ وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمَتِ ٱلۡجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُونَ

వచనం: 159

سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ

(159) Exalted is Allāh above what they describe,

వచనం: 160

إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ

(160) Except the chosen servants of Allāh [who do not share in that sin].

వచనం: 161

فَإِنَّكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡبُدُونَ

(161) So indeed, you [disbelievers] and whatever you worship,

వచనం: 162

مَآ أَنتُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ بِفَٰتِنِينَ

(162) You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him

వచనం: 163

إِلَّا مَنۡ هُوَ صَالِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ

(163) Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire.^[1309]

[1309]- Due to his disbelief and evil deeds.

వచనం: 164

وَمَا مِنَّآ إِلَّا لَهُۥ مَقَامٞ مَّعۡلُومٞ

(164) [The angels say],^[1310] "There is not among us any except that he has a known position.^[1311]

[1310]- Refuting what the disbelievers had said about them.
[1311]- For worship. Or "an assigned task" to perform.

వచనం: 165

وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلصَّآفُّونَ

(165) And indeed, we are those who line up [for prayer].

వచనం: 166

وَإِنَّا لَنَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحُونَ

(166) And indeed, we are those who exalt Allāh."

వచనం: 167

وَإِن كَانُواْ لَيَقُولُونَ

(167) And indeed, they [i.e., the disbelievers] used to say,^[1312]

[1312]- Before the revelation of the Qur’ān.

వచనం: 168

لَوۡ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكۡرٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

(168) "If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,

వచనం: 169

لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ

(169) We would have been the chosen servants of Allāh."

వచనం: 170

فَكَفَرُواْ بِهِۦۖ فَسَوۡفَ يَعۡلَمُونَ

(170) But they disbelieved in it,^[1313] so they are going to know.

[1313]- i.e., in their own message, the Qur’ān.

వచనం: 171

وَلَقَدۡ سَبَقَتۡ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

(171) And Our word [i.e., decree] has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,

వచనం: 172

إِنَّهُمۡ لَهُمُ ٱلۡمَنصُورُونَ

(172) [That] indeed, they would be those given victory

వచనం: 173

وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبُونَ

(173) And [that] indeed, Our soldiers [i.e., the believers] will be those who overcome.^[1314]

[1314]- If not in this world, then definitely in the Hereafter.

వచనం: 174

فَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ

(174) So, [O Muḥammad], leave them for a time.

వచనం: 175

وَأَبۡصِرۡهُمۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ

(175) And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.

వచనం: 176

أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ

(176) Then for Our punishment are they impatient?

వచనం: 177

فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمۡ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ

(177) But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.

వచనం: 178

وَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ

(178) And leave them for a time.

వచనం: 179

وَأَبۡصِرۡ فَسَوۡفَ يُبۡصِرُونَ

(179) And see, for they are going to see.

వచనం: 180

سُبۡحَٰنَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلۡعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ

وَسَلَٰمٌ عَلَى ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
