The letter Saad · Meccan · 88 Ayahs

  1. ص࢜ وَالْقُرْاٰنِ ذِي الذِّكْرِ ۝١ؕ

    1Suad. By the Quran bearing the Reminder,

  2. بَلِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا فِيْ عِزَّةٍ وَّشِقَاقٍ ۝٢

    2the faithless indeed dwell in conceit and defiance.

  3. كَمْ اَهْلَكْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ مِّنْ قَرْنٍ فَنَادَوْا وَّلَاتَ حِيْنَ مَنَاصٍ ۝٣

    3How many a generation We have destroyed before them! They cried out [for help], but gone was the time for escape.

  4. وَعَجِبُوْٓا اَنْ جَا࢜ءَهُمْ مُّنْذِرٌ مِّنْهُمْؗ وَقَالَ الْكٰفِرُوْنَ هٰذَا سٰحِرٌ كَذَّابٌ ۝٤ۖۚ

    4They consider it odd that there should come to them a warner from among themselves, and the faithless say, ‘This is a magician, a mendacious liar.’

  5. اَجَعَلَ الْاٰلِهَةَ اِلٰهًا وَّاحِدًاۚۖ اِنَّ هٰذَا لَشَيْءٌ عُجَابٌ ۝٥

    5‘Has he reduced the gods to one god? This is indeed an odd thing!’

  6. وَانْطَلَقَ الْمَلَاُ مِنْهُمْ اَنِ امْشُوْا وَاصْبِرُوْا عَلٰٓي اٰلِهَتِكُمْۚۖ اِنَّ هٰذَا لَشَيْءٌ يُّرَادُ ۝٦ۖۚ

    6Their elite go about [urging others]: ‘Go and stand by your gods! This is indeed the desirable thing [to do].

  7. مَا سَمِعْنَا بِهٰذَا فِي الْمِلَّةِ الْاٰخِرَةِۚۖ اِنْ هٰذَا͏ٓ اِلَّا اخْتِلَاقٌ ۝٧ۖۚ

    7We did not hear of this in the latter-day creed. This is nothing but a fabrication.

  8. ءَاُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ الذِّكْرُ مِنْۢ بَيْنِنَاؕ بَلْ هُمْ فِيْ شَكٍّ مِّنْ ذِكْرِيْۚ بَلْ لَّمَّا يَذُوْقُوْا عَذَابِ ۝٨ؕ

    8Has the Reminder been sent down to him out of [all of] us?’ Indeed, they are in doubt concerning My Reminder. Indeed, they have not yet tasted My punishment.

  9. اَمْ عِنْدَهُمْ خَزَا࢜ىِٕنُ رَحْمَةِ رَبِّكَ الْعَزِيْزِ الْوَهَّابِ ۝٩ۚ

    9Do they possess the treasuries of the mercy of your Lord, the All-mighty, the All-munificent?

  10. اَمْ لَهُمْ مُّلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَاࣞ فَلْيَرْتَقُوْا فِي الْاَسْبَابِ ۝١٠

    10Do they own the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them? [If so,] let them ascend [to the higher spheres] by the means [of ascension].

  11. جُنْدٌ مَّا هُنَالِكَ مَهْزُوْمٌ مِّنَ الْاَحْزَابِ ۝١١

    11[They are but] a host routed out there of the factions.

  12. كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوْحٍ وَّعَادٌ وَّفِرْعَوْنُ ذُو الْاَوْتَادِ ۝١٢ۙ

    12Before them Noah’s people impugned [their apostle] and [so did the people of] ‘Ad, and Pharaoh, the Impaler [of his victims],

  13. وَثَمُوْدُ وَقَوْمُ لُوْطٍ وَّاَصْحٰبُ لْـَٔيْكَةِؕ اُولٰ࢜ىِٕكَ الْاَحْزَابُ ۝١٣

    13and Thamud, and the people of Lot, and the inhabitants of Aykah: those were the factions.

  14. اِنْ كُلٌّ اِلَّا كَذَّبَ الرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ عِقَابِ ۝١٤ࣖ

    14There was not any one but such as impugned the apostles; so My retribution became due [against them].

  15. وَمَا يَنْظُرُ هٰٓو͏ٔ͏ُلَا࢜ءِ اِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَّاحِدَةً مَّا لَهَا مِنْ فَوَاقٍ ۝١٥

    15These [too] do not await but a single Cry, which will not grant [them] any respite.

  16. وَقَالُوْا رَبَّنَا عَجِّلْ لَّنَا قِطَّنَا قَبْلَ يَوْمِ الْحِسَابِ ۝١٦

    16They say, ‘Our Lord! Hasten on for us our share before the Day of Reckoning.’

  17. اِصْبِرْ عَلٰي مَا يَقُوْلُوْنَ وَاذْكُرْ عَبْدَنَا دَاوٗدَ ذَا الْاَيْدِۚ اِنَّهٗٓ اَوَّابٌ ۝١٧

    17Be patient over what they say, and remember Our servant, David, [the man] of strength. Indeed he was a penitent [soul].

  18. اِنَّا سَخَّرْنَا الْجِبَالَ مَعَهٗ يُسَبِّحْنَ بِالْعَشِيِّ وَالْاِشْرَاقِ ۝١٨ۙ

    18We disposed the mountains to glorify [Allah] with him at evening and dawn,

  19. وَالطَّيْرَ مَحْشُوْرَةًؕ كُلٌّ لَّهٗٓ اَوَّابٌ ۝١٩

    19and the birds [as well], mustered [in flocks]; all echoing him [in a chorus].

  20. وَشَدَدْنَا مُلْكَهٗ وَاٰتَيْنٰهُ الْحِكْمَةَ وَفَصْلَ الْخِطَابِ ۝٢٠

    20We consolidated his kingdom and gave him wisdom and conclusive speech.

  21. وَهَلْ اَتٰىكَ نَبَو͏ٔ͏ُا الْخَصْمِۘ اِذْ تَسَوَّرُوا الْمِحْرَابَ ۝٢١ۙ

    21Has there not come to you the account of the contenders, when they scaled the wall into the sanctuary?

  22. اِذْ دَخَلُوْا عَلٰي دَاوٗدَ فَفَزِعَ مِنْهُمْ قَالُوْا لَا تَخَفْۚ خَصْمٰنِ بَغٰي بَعْضُنَا عَلٰي بَعْضٍ فَاحْكُمْ بَيْنَنَا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا تُشْطِطْ وَاهْدِنَا͏ٓ اِلٰي سَوَا࢜ءِ الصِّرَاطِ ۝٢٢

    22When they entered into the presence of David, he was alarmed by them. They said, ‘Do not be afraid. [We are only] two contenders: one of us has bullied the other. So judge justly between us, and do not exceed [the bounds of justice], and show us the right path.’

  23. اِنَّ هٰذَا͏ٓ اَخِيْࣞ لَهٗ تِسْعٌ وَّتِسْعُوْنَ نَعْجَةً وَّلِيَ نَعْجَةٌ وَّاحِدَةٌࣞ فَقَالَ اَكْفِلْنِيْهَا وَعَزَّنِيْ فِي الْخِطَابِ ۝٢٣

    23‘This brother of mine has ninety-nine ewes, while I have only a single ewe, and [yet] he says, ‘Commit it to my care,’ and he browbeats me in speech.’

  24. قَالَ لَقَدْ ظَلَمَكَ بِسُو͏ٔ͏َالِ نَعْجَتِكَ اِلٰي نِعَاجِهٖؕ وَاِنَّ كَثِيْرًا مِّنَ الْخُلَطَا࢜ءِ لَيَبْغِيْ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰي بَعْضٍ اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَقَلِيْلٌ مَّا هُمْؕ وَظَنَّ دَاوٗدُ اَنَّمَا فَتَنّٰهُ فَاسْتَغْفَرَ رَبَّهٗ وَخَرَّ رَاكِعًا وَّاَنَابَ ۝٢٤ࣛ

    24He said, ‘He has certainly wronged you by asking your ewe in addition to his own ewes, and indeed many partners bully one another, except such as have faith and do righteous deeds, and few are they.’ Then David knew that We had tested him, whereat he pleaded with his Lord for forgiveness, and fell down in prostration and repented.

    ۩ Ayah of Sajdah
  25. فَغَفَرْنَا لَهٗ ذٰلِكَؕ وَاِنَّ لَهٗ عِنْدَنَا لَزُلْفٰي وَحُسْنَ مَاٰبٍ ۝٢٥

    25So We forgave him that, and indeed he has [a station of] nearness with Us and a good destination.

  26. يٰدَاوٗدُ اِنَّا جَعَلْنٰكَ خَلِيْفَةً فِي الْاَرْضِ فَاحْكُمْ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا تَتَّبِعِ الْهَوٰي فَيُضِلَّكَ عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِؕ اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ يَضِلُّوْنَ عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيْدٌۢ بِمَا نَسُوْا يَوْمَ الْحِسَابِ ۝٢٦ࣖ

    26‘O David! Indeed, We have made you a vicegerent on the earth. So judge between people with justice, and do not follow your desires, or they will lead you astray from the way of Allah. Indeed there is a severe punishment for those who stray from the way of Allah, because of their forgetting the Day of Reckoning.’

  27. وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَا࢜ءَ وَالْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا بَاطِلًاؕ ذٰلِكَ ظَنُّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْاۚ فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنَ النَّارِ ۝٢٧ؕ

    27We did not create the sky and the earth and whatever is between them in vain. That is a conjecture of the faithless. So woe to the faithless for the Fire!

  28. اَمْ نَجْعَلُ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ كَالْمُفْسِدِيْنَ فِي الْاَرْضِؗ اَمْ نَجْعَلُ الْمُتَّقِيْنَ كَالْفُجَّارِ ۝٢٨

    28Shall We treat those who have faith and do righteous deeds like those who cause corruption on the earth? Shall We treat the Godwary like the vicious?

  29. كِتٰبٌ اَنْزَلْنٰهُ اِلَيْكَ مُبٰرَكٌ لِّيَدَّبَّرُوْٓا اٰيٰتِهٖ وَلِيَتَذَكَّرَ اُولُوا الْاَلْبَابِ ۝٢٩

    29[This is] a blessed Book that We have sent down to you, so that they may contemplate its signs, and that those who possess intellect may take admonition.

  30. وَوَهَبْنَا لِدَاوٗدَ سُلَيْمٰنَؕ نِعْمَ الْعَبْدُؕ اِنَّهٗٓ اَوَّابٌ ۝٣٠ؕ

    30And to David We gave Solomon—what an excellent servant he was! Indeed, he was a penitent [soul].

  31. اِذْ عُرِضَ عَلَيْهِ بِالْعَشِيِّ الصّٰفِنٰتُ الْجِيَادُ ۝٣١ۙ

    31One evening when there were displayed before him prancing steeds,

  32. فَقَالَ اِنِّيْٓ اَحْبَبْتُ حُبَّ الْخَيْرِ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّيْۚ حَتّٰي تَوَارَتْ بِالْحِجَابِ ۝٣٢ࣟ

    32he said, ‘Indeed I have preferred the love of [worldly] niceties to the remembrance of my Lord until [the sun] disappeared behind the [night’s] veil.’

  33. رُدُّوْهَا عَلَيَّؕ فَطَفِقَ مَسْحًاۢ بِالسُّوْقِ وَالْاَعْنَاقِ ۝٣٣

    33‘Bring it back for me!’ Then he [and others] began to wipe [their] legs and necks.

  34. وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا سُلَيْمٰنَ وَاَلْقَيْنَا عَلٰي كُرْسِيِّهٖ جَسَدًا ثُمَّ اَنَابَ ۝٣٤

    34Certainly We tried Solomon, and cast a [lifeless] body on his throne. Thereupon he was penitent.

  35. قَالَ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِيْ وَهَبْ لِيْ مُلْكًا لَّا يَنۢ͏ْبَغِيْ لِاَحَدٍ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِيْۚ اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ الْوَهَّابُ ۝٣٥

    35He said, ‘My Lord! Forgive me, and grant me a kingdom that will not befit anyone except me. Indeed You are the All-munificent.’

  36. فَسَخَّرْنَا لَهُ الرِّيْحَ تَجْرِيْ بِاَمْرِهٖ رُخَا࢜ءً حَيْثُ اَصَابَ ۝٣٦ۙ

    36So We disposed the wind for him, blowing softly wherever he intended by his command,

  37. وَالشَّيٰطِيْنَ كُلَّ بَنَّا࢜ءٍ وَّغَوَّاصٍ ۝٣٧ۙ

    37and every builder and diver from the demons,

  38. وَّاٰخَرِيْنَ مُقَرَّنِيْنَ فِي الْاَصْفَادِ ۝٣٨

    38and others [too] bound together in chains.

  39. هٰذَا عَطَا࢜و͏ٔ͏ُنَا فَامْنُنْ اَوْ اَمْسِكْ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ ۝٣٩

    39‘This is Our bounty: so withhold or bestow without any reckoning.’

  40. وَاِنَّ لَهٗ عِنْدَنَا لَزُلْفٰي وَحُسْنَ مَاٰبٍ ۝٤٠ࣖ

    40Indeed he has [a station of] nearness with Us and a good destination.

  41. وَاذْكُرْ عَبْدَنَا͏ٓ اَيُّوْبَۘ اِذْ نَادٰي رَبَّهٗٓ اَنِّيْ مَسَّنِيَ الشَّيْطٰنُ بِنُصْبٍ وَّعَذَابٍ ۝٤١ؕ

    41And remember Our servant Job [in the Quran]. When he called out to his Lord, ‘The devil has visited on me hardship and torment,’

  42. اُرْكُضْ بِرِجْلِكَۚ هٰذَا مُغْتَسَلٌۢ بَارِدٌ وَّشَرَابٌ ۝٤٢

    42[We told him:] ‘Stamp your foot on the ground; this [ensuing spring] will be a cooling bath and drink.’

  43. وَوَهَبْنَا لَهٗٓ اَهْلَهٗ وَمِثْلَهُمْ مَّعَهُمْ رَحْمَةً مِّنَّا وَذِكْرٰي لِاُولِي الْاَلْبَابِ ۝٤٣

    43We gave [back] his family to him along with others like them, as a mercy from Us and an admonition for those who possess intellect.

  44. وَخُذْ بِيَدِكَ ضِغْثًا فَاضْرِبْ بِّهٖ وَلَا تَحْنَثْؕ اِنَّا وَجَدْنٰهُ صَابِرًاؕ نِعْمَ الْعَبْدُؕ اِنَّهٗٓ اَوَّابٌ ۝٤٤

    44[We told him:] ‘Take a faggot in your hand and then strike [your wife] with it, but do not break [your] oath.’ Indeed, We found him to be patient. What an excellent servant! Indeed he was a penitent [soul].

  45. وَاذْكُرْ عِبٰدَنَا͏ٓ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ وَاِسْحٰقَ وَيَعْقُوْبَ اُولِي الْاَيْدِيْ وَالْاَبْصَارِ ۝٤٥

    45And remember Our servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, men of strength and insight.

  46. اِنَّا͏ٓ اَخْلَصْنٰهُمْ بِخَالِصَةٍ ذِكْرَي الدَّارِ ۝٤٦ۚ

    46Indeed We purified them with exclusive remembrance of the abode [of the Hereafter].

  47. وَاِنَّهُمْ عِنْدَنَا لَمِنَ الْمُصْطَفَيْنَ الْاَخْيَارِ ۝٤٧ؕ

    47Indeed they are surely with Us among the elect of the best.

  48. وَاذْكُرْ اِسْمٰعِيْلَ وَالْيَسَعَ وَذَا الْكِفْلِؕ وَكُلٌّ مِّنَ الْاَخْيَارِ ۝٤٨ؕ

    48And remember Ishmael, Elisha and Dhu’l-Kifl—each [of whom was] among the elect.

  49. هٰذَا ذِكْرٌؕ وَاِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِيْنَ لَحُسْنَ مَاٰبٍ ۝٤٩ۙ

    49This is a Reminder, and indeed the Godwary have a good destination:

  50. جَنّٰتِ عَدْنٍ مُّفَتَّحَةً لَّهُمُ الْاَبْوَابُ ۝٥٠ۚ

    50the Gardens of Eden, whose gates will be flung open for them.

  51. مُتَّكِـِٕيْنَ فِيْهَا يَدْعُوْنَ فِيْهَا بِفَاكِهَةٍ كَثِيْرَةٍ وَّشَرَابٍ ۝٥١

    51Reclining therein [on couches], they will call for abundant fruits and drinks,

  52. وَعِنْدَهُمْ قٰصِرٰتُ الطَّرْفِ اَتْرَابٌ ۝٥٢

    52and there will be with them maidens of restrained glances, of a like age.

  53. هٰذَا مَا تُوْعَدُوْنَ لِيَوْمِ الْحِسَابِ ۝٥٣

    53This is what you are promised on the Day of Reckoning.

  54. اِنَّ هٰذَا لَرِزْقُنَا مَا لَهٗ مِنْ نَّفَادٍ ۝٥٤ۚۖ

    54This is Our provision, which will never be exhausted.

  55. هٰذَاؕ وَاِنَّ لِلطّٰغِيْنَ لَشَرَّ مَاٰبٍ ۝٥٥ۙ

    55This [will be for the righteous], and as for the rebellious there will surely be a bad destination:

  56. جَهَنَّمَۚ يَصْلَوْنَهَاۚ فَبِي͏ٔ͏ْسَ الْمِهَادُ ۝٥٦

    56hell, which they shall enter, an evil resting place.

  57. هٰذَاۙ فَلْيَذُوْقُوْهُ حَمِيْمٌ وَّغَسَّاقٌ ۝٥٧ۙ

    57[They will be told, ‘This is scalding water and pus; let them taste it,

  58. وَّاٰخَرُ مِنْ شَكْلِهٖٓ اَزْوَاجٌ ۝٥٨ؕ

    58and other kinds [of torments] resembling it.’

  59. هٰذَا فَوْجٌ مُّقْتَحِمٌ مَّعَكُمْۚ لَا مَرْحَبًاۢ بِهِمْؕ اِنَّهُمْ صَالُوا النَّارِ ۝٥٩

    59[The leaders of the faithless will be told,] ‘This is a group [of your followers] plunging [into hell] along with you.’ [They will repond,] ‘May wretchedness be their lot! For they will enter the Fire.’

  60. قَالُوْا بَلْ اَنْتُمْࣞ لَا مَرْحَبًاۢ بِكُمْؕ اَنْتُمْ قَدَّمْتُمُوْهُ لَنَاۚ فَبِي͏ٔ͏ْسَ الْقَرَارُ ۝٦٠

    60They will say, ‘No, may wretchedness be your lot! You prepared this [hell] for us. What an evil abode!’

  61. قَالُوْا رَبَّنَا مَنْ قَدَّمَ لَنَا هٰذَا فَزِدْهُ عَذَابًا ضِعْفًا فِي النَّارِ ۝٦١

    61They will say, ‘Our Lord! Whoever has prepared this for us, double his punishment in the Fire!’

  62. وَقَالُوْا مَا لَنَا لَا نَرٰي رِجَالًا كُنَّا نَعُدُّهُمْ مِّنَ الْاَشْرَارِ ۝٦٢ؕ

    62And they will say, ‘Why is it that we do not see [here] men whom we used to count among the bad ones,

  63. اَتَّخَذْنٰهُمْ سِخْرِيًّا اَمْ زَاغَتْ عَنْهُمُ الْاَبْصَارُ ۝٦٣

    63ridiculing them, or do [our] eyes miss them [here]?’

  64. اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ لَحَقٌّ تَخَاصُمُ اَهْلِ النَّارِ ۝٦٤ࣖ

    64That is indeed a true account of the contentions of the inmates of the Fire.

  65. قُلْ اِنَّمَا͏ٓ اَنَا مُنْذِرٌࣗۖ وَّمَا مِنْ اِلٰهٍ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ الْوَاحِدُ الْقَهَّارُ ۝٦٥ۚ

    65Say, ‘I am just a warner, and there is no god except Allah, the One, the All-paramount,

  66. رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا الْعَزِيْزُ الْغَفَّارُ ۝٦٦

    66the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the All-mighty, the All-forgiver.’

  67. قُلْ هُوَ نَبَو͏ٔ͏ٌا عَظِيْمٌ ۝٦٧ۙ

    67Say, ‘It is a great prophesy,

  68. اَنْتُمْ عَنْهُ مُعْرِضُوْنَ ۝٦٨

    68of which you are disregardful.

  69. مَا كَانَ لِيَ مِنْ عِلْمٍۭ بِالْمَلَاِ الْاَعْلٰٓي اِذْ يَخْتَصِمُوْنَ ۝٦٩

    69I have no knowledge of the Supernal Elite when they contend.

  70. اِنْ يُّوْحٰٓي اِلَيَّ اِلَّا͏ٓ اَنَّمَا͏ٓ اَنَا نَذِيْرٌ مُّبِيْنٌ ۝٧٠

    70All that is revealed to me is that I am just a manifest warner.’

  71. اِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلٰ࢜ىِٕكَةِ اِنِّيْ خَالِقٌۢ بَشَرًا مِّنْ طِيْنٍ ۝٧١

    71When your Lord said to the angels, ‘Indeed I am about to create a human being out of clay.

  72. فَاِذَا سَوَّيْتُهٗ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيْهِ مِنْ رُّوْحِيْ فَقَعُوْا لَهٗ سٰجِدِيْنَ ۝٧٢

    72So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My spirit, then fall down in prostration before him.’

  73. فَسَجَدَ الْمَلٰ࢜ىِٕكَةُ كُلُّهُمْ اَجْمَعُوْنَ ۝٧٣ۙ

    73Thereat the angels prostrated, all of them together,

  74. اِلَّا͏ٓ اِبْلِيْسَؕ اِسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ ۝٧٤

    74but not Iblis; he acted arrogantly and he was one of the faithless.

  75. قَالَ يٰٓاِبْلِيْسُ مَا مَنَعَكَ اَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِمَا خَلَقْتُ بِيَدَيَّؕ اَسْتَكْبَرْتَ اَمْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الْعَالِيْنَ ۝٧٥

    75He said, ‘O Iblis! What keeps you from prostrating before that which I have created with My [own] two hands? Are you arrogant, or are you one of the exalted ones?’

  76. قَالَ اَنَا خَيْرٌ مِّنْهُؕ خَلَقْتَنِيْ مِنْ نَّارٍ وَّخَلَقْتَهٗ مِنْ طِيْنٍ ۝٧٦

    76‘I am better than him,’ he said. ‘You created me from fire and You created him from clay.’

  77. قَالَ فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَاِنَّكَ رَجِيْمٌ ۝٧٧ۚۖ

    77He said, ‘Begone hence, for you are indeed an outcast,

  78. وَّاِنَّ عَلَيْكَ لَعْنَتِيْٓ اِلٰي يَوْمِ الدِّيْنِ ۝٧٨

    78and indeed My curse will be on you till the Day of Retribution.’

  79. قَالَ رَبِّ فَاَنْظِرْنِيْٓ اِلٰي يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُوْنَ ۝٧٩

    79He said, ‘My Lord! Respite me till the day they will be resurrected.’

  80. قَالَ فَاِنَّكَ مِنَ الْمُنْظَرِيْنَ ۝٨٠ۙ

    80Said He, ‘You are indeed among the reprieved

  81. اِلٰي يَوْمِ الْوَقْتِ الْمَعْلُوْمِ ۝٨١

    81until the day of the known time.’

  82. قَالَ فَبِعِزَّتِكَ لَاُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ اَجْمَعِيْنَ ۝٨٢ۙ

    82He said, ‘By Your might, I will surely pervert them,
