53. An-Najm

By the star when it descends,

— Saheeh International

Waalnnajmi itha hawa

— Transliteration

Your companion [Muhammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred,

— Saheeh International

Ma dalla sahibukum wama ghawa

— Transliteration

Nor does he speak from [his own] inclination.

— Saheeh International

Wama yantiqu AAani alhawa

— Transliteration

It is not but a revelation revealed,

— Saheeh International

In huwa illa wahyun yooha

— Transliteration

Taught to him by one intense in strength -

— Saheeh International

AAallamahu shadeedu alquwa

— Transliteration

One of soundness. And he rose to [his] true form

— Saheeh International

Thoo mirratin faistawa

— Transliteration

While he was in the higher [part of the] horizon.

— Saheeh International

Wahuwa bialofuqi alaAAla

— Transliteration

Then he approached and descended

— Saheeh International

Thumma dana fatadalla

— Transliteration

And was at a distance of two bow lengths or nearer.

— Saheeh International

Fakana qaba qawsayni aw adna

— Transliteration

And he revealed to His Servant what he revealed.

— Saheeh International

Faawha ila AAabdihi ma awha

— Transliteration

The heart did not lie [about] what it saw.

— Saheeh International

Ma kathaba alfuadu ma raa

— Transliteration

So will you dispute with him over what he saw?

— Saheeh International

Afatumaroonahu AAala ma yara

— Transliteration

And he certainly saw him in another descent

— Saheeh International

Walaqad raahu nazlatan okhra

— Transliteration

At the Lote Tree of the Utmost Boundary -

— Saheeh International

AAinda sidrati almuntaha

— Transliteration

Near it is the Garden of Refuge -

— Saheeh International

AAindaha jannatu almawa

— Transliteration

When there covered the Lote Tree that which covered [it].

— Saheeh International

Ith yaghsha alssidrata ma yaghsha

— Transliteration

The sight [of the Prophet] did not swerve, nor did it transgress [its limit].

— Saheeh International

Ma zagha albasaru wama tagha

— Transliteration

He certainly saw of the greatest signs of his Lord.

— Saheeh International

Laqad raa min ayati rabbihi alkubra

— Transliteration

So have you considered al-Lat and al-'Uzza?

— Saheeh International

Afaraaytumu allata waalAAuzza

— Transliteration

And Manat, the third - the other one?

— Saheeh International

Wamanata alththalithata alokhra

— Transliteration

Is the male for you and for Him the female?

— Saheeh International

Alakumu alththakaru walahu alontha

— Transliteration

That, then, is an unjust division.

— Saheeh International

Tilka ithan qismatun deeza

— Transliteration

They are not but [mere] names you have named them - you and your forefathers - for which Allah has sent down no authority. They follow not except assumption and what [their] souls desire, and there has already come to them from their Lord guidance.

— Saheeh International

In hiya illa asmaon sammaytumooha antum waabaokum ma anzala Allahu biha min sultanin in yattabiAAoona illa al<i>thth</i>anna wama tahwa alanfusu walaqad jaahum min rabbihimu alhuda

— Transliteration

Or is there for man whatever he wishes?

— Saheeh International

Am lilinsani ma tamanna

— Transliteration

Rather, to Allah belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].

— Saheeh International

Falillahi alakhiratu waaloola

— Transliteration

And how many angels there are in the heavens whose intercession will not avail at all except [only] after Allah has permitted [it] to whom He wills and approves.

— Saheeh International

Wakam min malakin fee alssamawati la tughnee shafaAAatuhum shayan illa min baAAdi an yathana Allahu liman yashao wayarda

— Transliteration

Indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter name the angels female names,

— Saheeh International

Inna allatheena la yuminoona bialakhirati layusammoona almalaikata tasmiyata alontha

— Transliteration

And they have thereof no knowledge. They follow not except assumption, and indeed, assumption avails not against the truth at all.

— Saheeh International

Wama lahum bihi min AAilmin in yattabiAAoona illa al<i>thth</i>anna wainna al<i>thth</i>anna la yughnee mina alhaqqi shayan

— Transliteration

So turn away from whoever turns his back on Our message and desires not except the worldly life.

— Saheeh International

FaaAArid AAan man tawalla AAan thikrina walam yurid illa alhayata alddunya

— Transliteration

That is their sum of knowledge. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who strays from His way, and He is most knowing of who is guided.

— Saheeh International

Thalika mablaghuhum mina alAAilmi inna rabbaka huwa aAAlamu biman dalla AAan sabeelihi wahuwa aAAlamu bimani ihtada

— Transliteration

And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth - that He may recompense those who do evil with [the penalty of] what they have done and recompense those who do good with the best [reward] -

— Saheeh International

Walillahi ma fee alssamawati wama fee alardi liyajziya allatheena asaoo bima AAamiloo wayajziya allatheena ahsanoo bialhusna

— Transliteration

Those who avoid the major sins and immoralities, only [committing] slight ones. Indeed, your Lord is vast in forgiveness. He was most knowing of you when He produced you from the earth and when you were fetuses in the wombs of your mothers. So do not claim yourselves to be pure; He is most knowing of who fears Him.

— Saheeh International

Allatheena yajtaniboona kabaira alithmi waalfawahisha illa allamama inna rabbaka wasiAAu almaghfirati huwa aAAlamu bikum ith anshaakum mina alardi waith antum ajinnatun fee butooni ommahatikum fala tuzakkoo anfusakum huwa aAAlamu bimani ittaqa

— Transliteration

Have you seen the one who turned away

— Saheeh International

Afaraayta allathee tawalla

— Transliteration

And gave a little and [then] refrained?

— Saheeh International

WaaAAta qaleelan waakda

— Transliteration

Does he have knowledge of the unseen, so he sees?

— Saheeh International

aAAindahu AAilmu alghaybi fahuwa yara

— Transliteration

Or has he not been informed of what was in the scriptures of Moses

— Saheeh International

Am lam yunabba bima fee suhufi moosa

— Transliteration

And [of] Abraham, who fulfilled [his obligations] -

— Saheeh International

Waibraheema allathee waffa

— Transliteration

That no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another

— Saheeh International

Alla taziru waziratun wizra okhra

— Transliteration

And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives

— Saheeh International

Waan laysa lilinsani illa ma saAAa

— Transliteration

And that his effort is going to be seen -

— Saheeh International

Waanna saAAyahu sawfa yura

— Transliteration

Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense

— Saheeh International

Thumma yujzahu aljazaa alawfa

— Transliteration

And that to your Lord is the finality

— Saheeh International

Waanna ila rabbika almuntaha

— Transliteration

And that it is He who makes [one] laugh and weep

— Saheeh International

Waannahu huwa adhaka waabka

— Transliteration

And that it is He who causes death and gives life

— Saheeh International

Waannahu huwa amata waahya

— Transliteration

And that He creates the two mates - the male and female -

— Saheeh International

Waannahu khalaqa alzzawjayni alththakara waalontha

— Transliteration

From a sperm-drop when it is emitted

— Saheeh International

Min nutfatin itha tumna

— Transliteration

And that [incumbent] upon Him is the next creation

— Saheeh International

Waanna AAalayhi alnnashata alokhra

— Transliteration

And that it is He who enriches and suffices

— Saheeh International

Waannahu huwa aghna waaqna

— Transliteration

And that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius

— Saheeh International

Waannahu huwa rabbu alshshiAAra

— Transliteration

And that He destroyed the first [people of] 'Aad

— Saheeh International

Waannahu ahlaka AAadan aloola

— Transliteration

And Thamud - and He did not spare [them] -

— Saheeh International

Wathamooda fama abqa

— Transliteration

And the people of Noah before. Indeed, it was they who were [even] more unjust and oppressing.

— Saheeh International

Waqawma noohin min qablu innahum kanoo hum a<i>th</i>lama waatgha

— Transliteration

And the overturned towns He hurled down

— Saheeh International

Waalmutafikata ahwa

— Transliteration

And covered them by that which He covered.

— Saheeh International

Faghashshaha ma ghashsha

— Transliteration

Then which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt?

— Saheeh International

Fabiayyi alai rabbika tatamara

— Transliteration

This [Prophet] is a warner like the former warners.

— Saheeh International

Hatha natheerun mina alnnuthuri aloola

— Transliteration

The Approaching Day has approached.

— Saheeh International

Azifati alazifatu

— Transliteration

Of it, [from those] besides Allah, there is no remover.

— Saheeh International

Laysa laha min dooni Allahi kashifatun

— Transliteration

Then at this statement do you wonder?

— Saheeh International

Afamin hatha alhadeethi taAAjaboona

— Transliteration

And you laugh and do not weep

— Saheeh International

Watadhakoona wala tabkoona

— Transliteration

While you are proudly sporting?

— Saheeh International

Waantum samidoona

— Transliteration

So prostrate to Allah and worship [Him].

— Saheeh International

Faosjudoo lillahi waoAAbudoo

— Transliteration
