نٓۚ وَٱلۡقَلَمِ وَمَا يَسۡطُرُونَ

(1) Nūn.^[1724] By the pen and what they inscribe,

[1724]- See footnote to 2:1.

آیت: 2

مَآ أَنتَ بِنِعۡمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجۡنُونٖ

(2) You are not, [O Muḥammad], by the favor of your Lord, a madman.

آیت: 3

وَإِنَّ لَكَ لَأَجۡرًا غَيۡرَ مَمۡنُونٖ

(3) And indeed, for you is a reward uninterrupted.

آیت: 4

وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلَىٰ خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٖ

(4) And indeed, you are of a great moral character.

آیت: 5

فَسَتُبۡصِرُ وَيُبۡصِرُونَ

(5) So you will see and they will see

آیت: 6

بِأَييِّكُمُ ٱلۡمَفۡتُونُ

(6) Which of you is the afflicted [by a devil].

آیت: 7

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦ وَهُوَ أَعۡلَمُ بِٱلۡمُهۡتَدِينَ

(7) Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has gone astray from His way, and He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided.

آیت: 8

فَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

(8) Then do not obey the deniers.

آیت: 9

وَدُّواْ لَوۡ تُدۡهِنُ فَيُدۡهِنُونَ

(9) They wish that you would soften [in your position], so they would soften [toward you].

آیت: 10

وَلَا تُطِعۡ كُلَّ حَلَّافٖ مَّهِينٍ

(10) And do not obey every worthless habitual swearer

آیت: 11

هَمَّازٖ مَّشَّآءِۭ بِنَمِيمٖ

مَّنَّاعٖ لِّلۡخَيۡرِ مُعۡتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ

(12) A preventer of good, transgressing and sinful,

آیت: 13

عُتُلِّۭ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ زَنِيمٍ

(13) Cruel, moreover, and an illegitimate pretender.^[1725]

[1725]- i.e., claiming a particular lineage falsely. The description given in these verses is of al-Waleed bin al-Mugheerah (see also 74:11-25) or possibly, as asserted by Ibn Katheer, al-Akhnas bin Shurayq.

آیت: 14

أَن كَانَ ذَا مَالٖ وَبَنِينَ

(14) Because he is a possessor of wealth and children,

آیت: 15

إِذَا تُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡهِ ءَايَٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

(15) When Our verses are recited to him, he says, "Legends of the former peoples."

آیت: 16

سَنَسِمُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلۡخُرۡطُومِ

(16) We will brand him upon the snout.^[1726]

[1726]- Literally, "trunk," meaning the nose of an elephant or pig.

آیت: 17

إِنَّا بَلَوۡنَٰهُمۡ كَمَا بَلَوۡنَآ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ إِذۡ أَقۡسَمُواْ لَيَصۡرِمُنَّهَا مُصۡبِحِينَ

(17) Indeed, We have tried them as We tried the companions of the garden, when they swore to cut its fruit in the [early] morning

آیت: 18

وَلَا يَسۡتَثۡنُونَ

(18) Without making exception.^[1727]

[1727]- i.e., without conceding that nothing can be accomplished unless Allāh wills, saying, "...if Allāh wills" ("in-shā’-Allāh"). See 18:23-24.

آیت: 19

فَطَافَ عَلَيۡهَا طَآئِفٞ مِّن رَّبِّكَ وَهُمۡ نَآئِمُونَ

(19) So there came upon it [i.e., the garden] an affliction from your Lord while they were asleep.

آیت: 20

فَأَصۡبَحَتۡ كَٱلصَّرِيمِ

(20) And it became as though reaped.

آیت: 21

فَتَنَادَوۡاْ مُصۡبِحِينَ

(21) And they called one another at morning,

آیت: 22

أَنِ ٱغۡدُواْ عَلَىٰ حَرۡثِكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰرِمِينَ

(22) [Saying], "Go early to your crop if you would cut the fruit."

آیت: 23

فَٱنطَلَقُواْ وَهُمۡ يَتَخَٰفَتُونَ

(23) So they set out, while lowering their voices,

آیت: 24

أَن لَّا يَدۡخُلَنَّهَا ٱلۡيَوۡمَ عَلَيۡكُم مِّسۡكِينٞ

(24) [Saying], "There will surely not enter it today upon you [any] poor person."

آیت: 25

وَغَدَوۡاْ عَلَىٰ حَرۡدٖ قَٰدِرِينَ

(25) And they went early in determination, [assuming themselves] able.^[1728]

[1728]- To carry out their plan, confident of their ability.

آیت: 26

فَلَمَّا رَأَوۡهَا قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا لَضَآلُّونَ

(26) But when they saw it, they said, "Indeed, we are lost;

آیت: 27

بَلۡ نَحۡنُ مَحۡرُومُونَ

(27) Rather, we have been deprived."

آیت: 28

قَالَ أَوۡسَطُهُمۡ أَلَمۡ أَقُل لَّكُمۡ لَوۡلَا تُسَبِّحُونَ

(28) The most moderate of them said, "Did I not say to you, 'Why do you not exalt [Allāh]?'"^[1729]

[1729]- i.e., remember or mention Him by saying, "...if Allāh wills." An additional meaning is "praise" or "thank" Him for His bounty.

آیت: 29

قَالُواْ سُبۡحَٰنَ رَبِّنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَٰلِمِينَ

(29) They said, "Exalted is our Lord! Indeed, we were wrongdoers."

آیت: 30

فَأَقۡبَلَ بَعۡضُهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖ يَتَلَٰوَمُونَ

(30) Then they approached one another, blaming each other.

آیت: 31

قَالُواْ يَٰوَيۡلَنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا طَٰغِينَ

(31) They said, "O woe to us; indeed we were transgressors.

آیت: 32

عَسَىٰ رَبُّنَآ أَن يُبۡدِلَنَا خَيۡرٗا مِّنۡهَآ إِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا رَٰغِبُونَ

(32) Perhaps our Lord will substitute for us [one] better than it. Indeed, we are toward our Lord desirous."^[1730]

[1730]- Of His mercy, forgiveness and bounty.

آیت: 33

كَذَٰلِكَ ٱلۡعَذَابُۖ وَلَعَذَابُ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ أَكۡبَرُۚ لَوۡ كَانُواْ يَعۡلَمُونَ

(33) Such is the punishment [of this world]. And the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.

آیت: 34

إِنَّ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ

(34) Indeed, for the righteous with their Lord are the Gardens of Pleasure.

آیت: 35

أَفَنَجۡعَلُ ٱلۡمُسۡلِمِينَ كَٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ

(35) Then will We treat the Muslims like the criminals?

آیت: 36

مَا لَكُمۡ كَيۡفَ تَحۡكُمُونَ

(36) What is [the matter] with you? How do you judge?

آیت: 37

أَمۡ لَكُمۡ كِتَٰبٞ فِيهِ تَدۡرُسُونَ

(37) Or do you have a scripture in which you learn

آیت: 38

إِنَّ لَكُمۡ فِيهِ لَمَا تَخَيَّرُونَ

(38) That indeed for you is whatever you choose?

آیت: 39

أَمۡ لَكُمۡ أَيۡمَٰنٌ عَلَيۡنَا بَٰلِغَةٌ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ إِنَّ لَكُمۡ لَمَا تَحۡكُمُونَ

(39) Or do you have oaths [binding] upon Us, extending until the Day of Resurrection, that indeed for you is whatever you judge?

آیت: 40

سَلۡهُمۡ أَيُّهُم بِذَٰلِكَ زَعِيمٌ

(40) Ask them which of them, for that [claim], is responsible.

آیت: 41

أَمۡ لَهُمۡ شُرَكَآءُ فَلۡيَأۡتُواْ بِشُرَكَآئِهِمۡ إِن كَانُواْ صَٰدِقِينَ

(41) Or do they have partners?^[1731] Then let them bring their partners, if they should be truthful.

[1731]- i.e., those to whom they attribute divinity other than Allāh or partners from among themselves.

آیت: 42

يَوۡمَ يُكۡشَفُ عَن سَاقٖ وَيُدۡعَوۡنَ إِلَى ٱلسُّجُودِ فَلَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ

(42) The Day the shin will be uncovered^[1732] and they are invited to prostration but they [i.e., the disbelievers] will not be able,

[1732]- i.e., when everyone will find before him great difficulty. In accordance with authentic ḥadīths, "the shin" might also refer to that of Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā), before which every believer will prostrate on the Day of Judgement. See footnote to 2:19.

آیت: 43

خَٰشِعَةً أَبۡصَٰرُهُمۡ تَرۡهَقُهُمۡ ذِلَّةٞۖ وَقَدۡ كَانُواْ يُدۡعَوۡنَ إِلَى ٱلسُّجُودِ وَهُمۡ سَٰلِمُونَ

(43) Their eyes humbled, humiliation will cover them. And they used to be invited to prostration while they were sound.^[1733]

[1733]- During worldly life.

آیت: 44

فَذَرۡنِي وَمَن يُكَذِّبُ بِهَٰذَا ٱلۡحَدِيثِۖ سَنَسۡتَدۡرِجُهُم مِّنۡ حَيۡثُ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ

(44) So leave Me, [O Muḥammad], with [the matter of] whoever denies this statement [i.e., the Qur’ān]. We will progressively lead them [to punishment] from where they do not know.^[1734]

[1734]- Allāh will increase His favors to them in this world by way of trial, whereby they will sink deeper into sin and thus into destruction.

آیت: 45

وَأُمۡلِي لَهُمۡۚ إِنَّ كَيۡدِي مَتِينٌ

(45) And I will give them time. Indeed, My plan is firm.

آیت: 46

أَمۡ تَسۡـَٔلُهُمۡ أَجۡرٗا فَهُم مِّن مَّغۡرَمٖ مُّثۡقَلُونَ

(46) Or do you ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down?

آیت: 47

أَمۡ عِندَهُمُ ٱلۡغَيۡبُ فَهُمۡ يَكۡتُبُونَ

(47) Or have they [knowledge of] the unseen, so they write [it] down?

آیت: 48

فَٱصۡبِرۡ لِحُكۡمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُن كَصَاحِبِ ٱلۡحُوتِ إِذۡ نَادَىٰ وَهُوَ مَكۡظُومٞ

(48) Then be patient for the decision of your Lord, [O Muḥammad], and be not like the companion of the fish [i.e., Jonah] when he called out while he was distressed.

آیت: 49

لَّوۡلَآ أَن تَدَٰرَكَهُۥ نِعۡمَةٞ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ لَنُبِذَ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ مَذۡمُومٞ

(49) If not that a favor [i.e., mercy] from his Lord overtook him, he would have been thrown onto the naked shore while he was censured.^[1735]

[1735]- But instead, Allāh accepted his repentance and provided means for his recovery. See 37:139-148.

آیت: 50

فَٱجۡتَبَٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَجَعَلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ

(50) And his Lord chose him and made him of the righteous.

آیت: 51

وَإِن يَكَادُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لَيُزۡلِقُونَكَ بِأَبۡصَٰرِهِمۡ لَمَّا سَمِعُواْ ٱلذِّكۡرَ وَيَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُۥ لَمَجۡنُونٞ

(51) And indeed, those who disbelieve would almost make you slip with their eyes [i.e., looks] when they hear the message, and they say, "Indeed, he is mad."

آیت: 52

وَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرٞ لِّلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

(52) But it is not except a reminder to the worlds.
