الر ۚ تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ وَقُرْآنٍ مُّبِينٍ
( 1 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 1 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 1](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur'an.
رُّبَمَا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ كَانُوا مُسْلِمِينَ
( 2 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 2 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 2](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims.
ذَرْهُمْ يَأْكُلُوا وَيَتَمَتَّعُوا وَيُلْهِهِمُ الْأَمَلُ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
( 3 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 3 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 3](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know.
وَمَا أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا وَلَهَا كِتَابٌ مَّعْلُومٌ
( 4 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 4 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 4](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree.
مَّا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَأْخِرُونَ
( 5 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 5 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 5](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter.
وَقَالُوا يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِي نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الذِّكْرُ إِنَّكَ لَمَجْنُونٌ
( 6 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 6 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 6](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And they say, "O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad.
لَّوْ مَا تَأْتِينَا بِالْمَلَائِكَةِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ
( 7 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 7 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 7](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful?"
مَا نُنَزِّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَمَا كَانُوا إِذًا مُّنظَرِينَ
( 8 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 8 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 8](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
We do not send down the angels except with truth; and the disbelievers would not then be reprieved.
إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ
( 9 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 9 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 9](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian.
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ فِي شِيَعِ الْأَوَّلِينَ
( 10 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 10 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 10](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muhammad], among the sects of the former peoples.
وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ
( 11 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 11 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 11](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And no messenger would come to them except that they ridiculed him.
كَذَٰلِكَ نَسْلُكُهُ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ
( 12 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 12 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 12](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Thus do We insert denial into the hearts of the criminals.
لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ ۖ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ سُنَّةُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
( 13 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 13 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 13](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
They will not believe in it, while there has already occurred the precedent of the former peoples.
وَلَوْ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ فَظَلُّوا فِيهِ يَعْرُجُونَ
( 14 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 14 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 14](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend,
لَقَالُوا إِنَّمَا سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَارُنَا بَلْ نَحْنُ قَوْمٌ مَّسْحُورُونَ
( 15 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 15 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 15](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
They would say, "Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic."
وَلَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا فِي السَّمَاءِ بُرُوجًا وَزَيَّنَّاهَا لِلنَّاظِرِينَ
( 16 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 16 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 16](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers.
وَحَفِظْنَاهَا مِن كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ رَّجِيمٍ
( 17 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 17 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 17](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We have protected it from every devil expelled [from the mercy of Allah]
إِلَّا مَنِ اسْتَرَقَ السَّمْعَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ شِهَابٌ مُّبِينٌ
( 18 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 18 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 18](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame.
وَالْأَرْضَ مَدَدْنَاهَا وَأَلْقَيْنَا فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ وَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مَّوْزُونٍ
( 19 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 19 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 19](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And the earth - We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well-balanced thing.
وَجَعَلْنَا لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَعَايِشَ وَمَن لَّسْتُمْ لَهُ بِرَازِقِينَ
( 20 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 20 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 20](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers.
وَإِن مِّن شَيْءٍ إِلَّا عِندَنَا خَزَائِنُهُ وَمَا نُنَزِّلُهُ إِلَّا بِقَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ
( 21 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 21 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 21](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure.
وَأَرْسَلْنَا الرِّيَاحَ لَوَاقِحَ فَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَأَسْقَيْنَاكُمُوهُ وَمَا أَنتُمْ لَهُ بِخَازِنِينَ
( 22 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 22 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 22](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We have sent the fertilizing winds and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers.
وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ نُحْيِي وَنُمِيتُ وَنَحْنُ الْوَارِثُونَ
( 23 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 23 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 23](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor.
وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا الْمُسْتَقْدِمِينَ مِنكُمْ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا الْمُسْتَأْخِرِينَ
( 24 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 24 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 24](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come].
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُ حَكِيمٌ عَلِيمٌ
( 25 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 25 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 25](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And indeed, your Lord will gather them; indeed, He is Wise and Knowing.
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ مِن صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ
( 26 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 26 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 26](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.
وَالْجَانَّ خَلَقْنَاهُ مِن قَبْلُ مِن نَّارِ السَّمُومِ
( 27 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 27 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 27](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And the jinn We created before from scorching fire.
وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي خَالِقٌ بَشَرًا مِّن صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ
( 28 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 28 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 28](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud.
فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُوا لَهُ سَاجِدِينَ
( 29 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 29 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 29](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration."
فَسَجَدَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ كُلُّهُمْ أَجْمَعُونَ
( 30 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 30 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 30](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely,
إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ أَن يَكُونَ مَعَ السَّاجِدِينَ
( 31 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 31 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 31](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Except Iblees, he refused to be with those who prostrated.
قَالَ يَا إِبْلِيسُ مَا لَكَ أَلَّا تَكُونَ مَعَ السَّاجِدِينَ
( 32 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 32 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 32](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Allah] said, O Iblees, what is [the matter] with you that you are not with those who prostrate?"
قَالَ لَمْ أَكُن لِّأَسْجُدَ لِبَشَرٍ خَلَقْتَهُ مِن صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ
( 33 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 33 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 33](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
He said, "Never would I prostrate to a human whom You created out of clay from an altered black mud."
قَالَ فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ
( 34 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 34 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 34](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Allah] said, "Then get out of it, for indeed, you are expelled.
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكَ اللَّعْنَةَ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ
( 35 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 35 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 35](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Recompense."
قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرْنِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
( 36 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 36 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 36](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."
قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ الْمُنظَرِينَ
( 37 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 37 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 37](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved
إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الْوَقْتِ الْمَعْلُومِ
( 38 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 38 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 38](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Until the Day of the time well-known."
قَالَ رَبِّ بِمَا أَغْوَيْتَنِي لَأُزَيِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَأُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
( 39 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 39 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 39](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Iblees] said, "My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all
إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
( 40 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 40 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 40](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Except, among them, Your chosen servants."
قَالَ هَٰذَا صِرَاطٌ عَلَيَّ مُسْتَقِيمٌ
( 41 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 41 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 41](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Allah] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight.
إِنَّ عِبَادِي لَيْسَ لَكَ عَلَيْهِمْ سُلْطَانٌ إِلَّا مَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْغَاوِينَ
( 42 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 42 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 42](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators.
وَإِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمَوْعِدُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
( 43 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 43 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 43](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all.
لَهَا سَبْعَةُ أَبْوَابٍ لِّكُلِّ بَابٍ مِّنْهُمْ جُزْءٌ مَّقْسُومٌ
( 44 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 44 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 44](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
It has seven gates; for every gate is of them a portion designated."
إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
( 45 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 45 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 45](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs.
ادْخُلُوهَا بِسَلَامٍ آمِنِينَ
( 46 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 46 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 46](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]."
وَنَزَعْنَا مَا فِي صُدُورِهِم مِّنْ غِلٍّ إِخْوَانًا عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مُّتَقَابِلِينَ
( 47 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 47 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 47](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other.
لَا يَمَسُّهُمْ فِيهَا نَصَبٌ وَمَا هُم مِّنْهَا بِمُخْرَجِينَ
( 48 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 48 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 48](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.
نَبِّئْ عِبَادِي أَنِّي أَنَا الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ
( 49 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 49 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 49](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful.
وَأَنَّ عَذَابِي هُوَ الْعَذَابُ الْأَلِيمُ
( 50 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 50 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 50](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment.
وَنَبِّئْهُمْ عَن ضَيْفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
( 51 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 51 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 51](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And inform them about the guests of Abraham,
إِذْ دَخَلُوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا سَلَامًا قَالَ إِنَّا مِنكُمْ وَجِلُونَ
( 52 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 52 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 52](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful of you."
قَالُوا لَا تَوْجَلْ إِنَّا نُبَشِّرُكَ بِغُلَامٍ عَلِيمٍ
( 53 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 53 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 53](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy."
قَالَ أَبَشَّرْتُمُونِي عَلَىٰ أَن مَّسَّنِيَ الْكِبَرُ فَبِمَ تُبَشِّرُونَ
( 54 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 54 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 54](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform?"
قَالُوا بَشَّرْنَاكَ بِالْحَقِّ فَلَا تَكُن مِّنَ الْقَانِطِينَ
( 55 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 55 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 55](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing."
قَالَ وَمَن يَقْنَطُ مِن رَّحْمَةِ رَبِّهِ إِلَّا الضَّالُّونَ
( 56 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 56 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 56](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray?"
قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ
( 57 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 57 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 57](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"
قَالُوا إِنَّا أُرْسِلْنَا إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ
( 58 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 58 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 58](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals,
إِلَّا آلَ لُوطٍ إِنَّا لَمُنَجُّوهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
( 59 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 59 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 59](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all
إِلَّا امْرَأَتَهُ قَدَّرْنَا ۙ إِنَّهَا لَمِنَ الْغَابِرِينَ
( 60 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 60 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 60](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Except his wife." Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind.
فَلَمَّا جَاءَ آلَ لُوطٍ الْمُرْسَلُونَ
( 61 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 61 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 61](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And when the messengers came to the family of Lot,
قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ
( 62 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 62 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 62](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
He said, "Indeed, you are people unknown."
قَالُوا بَلْ جِئْنَاكَ بِمَا كَانُوا فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ
( 63 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 63 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 63](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing,
وَأَتَيْنَاكَ بِالْحَقِّ وَإِنَّا لَصَادِقُونَ
( 64 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 64 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 64](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And we have come to you with truth, and indeed, we are truthful.
فَأَسْرِ بِأَهْلِكَ بِقِطْعٍ مِّنَ اللَّيْلِ وَاتَّبِعْ أَدْبَارَهُمْ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتْ مِنكُمْ أَحَدٌ وَامْضُوا حَيْثُ تُؤْمَرُونَ
( 65 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 65 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 65](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
So set out with your family during a portion of the night and follow behind them and let not anyone among you look back and continue on to where you are commanded."
وَقَضَيْنَا إِلَيْهِ ذَٰلِكَ الْأَمْرَ أَنَّ دَابِرَ هَٰؤُلَاءِ مَقْطُوعٌ مُّصْبِحِينَ
( 66 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 66 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 66](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We conveyed to him [the decree] of that matter: that those [sinners] would be eliminated by early morning.
وَجَاءَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ يَسْتَبْشِرُونَ
( 67 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 67 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 67](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And the people of the city came rejoicing.
قَالَ إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ ضَيْفِي فَلَا تَفْضَحُونِ
( 68 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 68 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 68](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Lot] said, "Indeed, these are my guests, so do not shame me.
وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُخْزُونِ
( 69 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 69 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 69](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And fear Allah and do not disgrace me."
قَالُوا أَوَلَمْ نَنْهَكَ عَنِ الْعَالَمِينَ
( 70 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 70 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 70](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
They said, "Have we not forbidden you from [protecting] people?"
قَالَ هَٰؤُلَاءِ بَنَاتِي إِن كُنتُمْ فَاعِلِينَ
( 71 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 71 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 71](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
[Lot] said, "These are my daughters - if you would be doers [of lawful marriage]."
لَعَمْرُكَ إِنَّهُمْ لَفِي سَكْرَتِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ
( 72 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 72 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 72](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
By your life, [O Muhammad], indeed they were, in their intoxication, wandering blindly.
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ مُشْرِقِينَ
( 73 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 73 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 73](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
So the shriek seized them at sunrise.
فَجَعَلْنَا عَالِيَهَا سَافِلَهَا وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن سِجِّيلٍ
( 74 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 74 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 74](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We made the highest part [of the city] its lowest and rained upon them stones of hard clay.
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّلْمُتَوَسِّمِينَ
( 75 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 75 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 75](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Indeed in that are signs for those who discern.
وَإِنَّهَا لَبِسَبِيلٍ مُّقِيمٍ
( 76 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 76 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 76](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And indeed, those cities are [situated] on an established road.
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
( 77 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 77 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 77](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Indeed in that is a sign for the believers.
وَإِن كَانَ أَصْحَابُ الْأَيْكَةِ لَظَالِمِينَ
( 78 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 78 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 78](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And the companions of the thicket were [also] wrongdoers.
فَانتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ وَإِنَّهُمَا لَبِإِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ
( 79 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 79 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 79](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
So We took retribution from them, and indeed, both [cities] are on a clear highway.
وَلَقَدْ كَذَّبَ أَصْحَابُ الْحِجْرِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ
( 80 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 80 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 80](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And certainly did the companions of Thamud deny the messengers.
وَآتَيْنَاهُمْ آيَاتِنَا فَكَانُوا عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ
( 81 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 81 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 81](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We gave them Our signs, but from them they were turning away.
وَكَانُوا يَنْحِتُونَ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ بُيُوتًا آمِنِينَ
( 82 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 82 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 82](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And they used to carve from the mountains, houses, feeling secure.
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ مُصْبِحِينَ
( 83 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 83 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 83](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
But the shriek seized them at early morning.
فَمَا أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ
( 84 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 84 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 84](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
So nothing availed them [from] what they used to earn.
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ۗ وَإِنَّ السَّاعَةَ لَآتِيَةٌ ۖ فَاصْفَحِ الصَّفْحَ الْجَمِيلَ
( 85 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 85 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 85](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We have not created the heavens and earth and that between them except in truth. And indeed, the Hour is coming; so forgive with gracious forgiveness.
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ الْخَلَّاقُ الْعَلِيمُ
( 86 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 86 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 86](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Indeed, your Lord - He is the Knowing Creator.
وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَاكَ سَبْعًا مِّنَ الْمَثَانِي وَالْقُرْآنَ الْعَظِيمَ
( 87 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 87 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 87](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We have certainly given you, [O Muhammad], seven of the often repeated [verses] and the great Qur'an.
لَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَىٰ مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَاجًا مِّنْهُمْ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَاخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
( 88 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 88 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 88](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [certain] categories of the disbelievers, and do not grieve over them. And lower your wing to the believers
وَقُلْ إِنِّي أَنَا النَّذِيرُ الْمُبِينُ
( 89 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 89 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 89](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And say, "Indeed, I am the clear warner" -
كَمَا أَنزَلْنَا عَلَى الْمُقْتَسِمِينَ
( 90 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 90 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 90](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Just as We had revealed [scriptures] to the separators
الَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا الْقُرْآنَ عِضِينَ
( 91 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 91 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 91](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Who have made the Qur'an into portions.
فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَسْأَلَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
( 92 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 92 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 92](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
So by your Lord, We will surely question them all
عَمَّا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
( 93 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 93 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 93](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
About what they used to do.
فَاصْدَعْ بِمَا تُؤْمَرُ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ
( 94 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 94 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 94](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Then declare what you are commanded and turn away from the polytheists.
إِنَّا كَفَيْنَاكَ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ
( 95 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 95 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 95](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Indeed, We are sufficient for you against the mockers
الَّذِينَ يَجْعَلُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ ۚ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
( 96 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 96 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 96](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
Who make [equal] with Allah another deity. But they are going to know.
وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ يَضِيقُ صَدْرُكَ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ
( 97 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 97 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 97](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And We already know that your breast is constrained by what they say.
فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَكُن مِّنَ السَّاجِدِينَ
( 98 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 98 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 98](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
So exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord and be of those who prostrate [to Him].
وَاعْبُدْ رَبَّكَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِيَكَ الْيَقِينُ
( 99 ) ![English - Yusuf Ali - Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 99 Al-Hijr ( The Rocky Tract ) - Aya 99](style/islamic/icons/mp3.png)
And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (death).
