         Surat Aş-Şāffāt
         (Those who set the Ranks) -
         سورة الصافات
      
      
    
   
   
      Sahih International
By  those  [angels]  lined  up  in  rows    
   
      Sahih International
And  those  who  drive  [the  clouds]    
   
      Sahih International
And  those  who  recite  the  message,    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  your  God  is  One,    
   
      Sahih International
Lord  of  the  heavens  and  the  earth  and  that  between  them  and  Lord  of  the  sunrises.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  We  have  adorned  the  nearest  heaven  with  an  adornment  of  stars    
   
      Sahih International
And  as  protection  against  every  rebellious  devil    
   
      Sahih International
[So]  they  may  not  listen  to  the  exalted  assembly  [of  angels]  and  are  pelted  from  every side,    
   
      Sahih International
Repelled;  and  for  them  is  a  constant  punishment,    
   
      Sahih International
Except  one  who  snatches  [some  words]  by  theft,  but  they  are  pursued  by  a  burning flame,  piercing  [in  brightness].    
   
      Sahih International
Then  inquire  of  them,  [O  Muhammad],  "Are  they  a  stronger  [or  more  difficult]  creation or  those  [others]  We  have  created?"  Indeed,  We  created  men  from  sticky  clay.    
   
      Sahih International
But  you  wonder,  while  they  mock,    
   
      Sahih International
And  when  they  are  reminded,  they  remember  not.    
   
      Sahih International
And  when  they  see  a  sign,  they  ridicule    
   
      Sahih International
And  say,  "This  is  not  but  obvious  magic.    
   
      Sahih International
When  we  have  died  and  become  dust  and  bones,  are  we  indeed  to  be  resurrected?    
   
      Sahih International
And  our  forefathers  [as  well]?"    
   
      Sahih International
Say,  "Yes,  and  you  will  be  [rendered]  contemptible."    
   
      Sahih International
It  will  be  only  one  shout,  and  at  once  they  will  be  observing.    
   
      Sahih International
They  will  say,  "O  woe  to  us!  This  is  the  Day  of  Recompense."    
   
      Sahih International
[They  will  be  told],  "This  is  the  Day  of  Judgement  which  you  used  to  deny."    
   
      Sahih International
[The  angels  will  be  ordered],  "Gather  those  who  committed  wrong,  their  kinds,  and  what they  used  to  worship    
   
      Sahih International
Other  than Allah ,  and  guide  them  to  the  path  of  Hellfire    
   
      Sahih International
And  stop  them;  indeed,  they  are  to  be  questioned."    
   
      Sahih International
[They  will  be  asked],  "What  is  [wrong]  with  you?  Why  do  you  not  help  each  other?"    
   
      Sahih International
But  they,  that  Day,  are  in  surrender.    
   
      Sahih International
And  they  will  approach  one  another  blaming  each  other.    
   
      Sahih International
They  will  say,  "Indeed,  you  used  to  come  at  us  from  the  right."    
   
      Sahih International
The  oppressors  will  say,  "Rather,  you  [yourselves]  were  not  believers,    
   
      Sahih International
And  we  had  over  you  no  authority,  but  you  were  a  transgressing  people.    
   
      Sahih International
So  the  word  of  our  Lord  has  come  into  effect  upon  us;  indeed,  we  will  taste [punishment].    
   
      Sahih International
And  we  led  you  to  deviation;  indeed,  we  were  deviators."    
   
      Sahih International
So  indeed  they,  that  Day,  will  be  sharing  in  the  punishment.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  that  is  how  We  deal  with  the  criminals.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed  they,  when  it  was  said  to  them,  "There  is  no  deity  but Allah ,"  were  arrogant    
   
      Sahih International
And  were  saying,  "Are  we  to  leave  our  gods  for  a  mad  poet?"    
   
      Sahih International
Rather,  the  Prophet  has  come  with  the  truth  and  confirmed  the  [previous]  messengers.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  you  [disbelievers]  will  be  tasters  of  the  painful  punishment,    
   
      Sahih International
And  you  will  not  be  recompensed  except  for  what  you  used  to  do  -    
   
      Sahih International
But  not  the  chosen  servants  of Allah .    
   
      Sahih International
Those  will  have  a  provision  determined  -    
   
      Sahih International
Fruits;  and  they  will  be  honored    
   
      Sahih International
In  gardens  of  pleasure    
   
      Sahih International
On  thrones  facing  one  another.    
   
      Sahih International
There  will  be  circulated  among  them  a  cup  [of  wine]  from  a  flowing  spring,    
   
      Sahih International
White  and  delicious  to  the  drinkers;    
   
      Sahih International
No  bad  effect  is  there  in  it,  nor  from  it  will  they  be  intoxicated.    
   
      Sahih International
And  with  them  will  be  women  limiting  [their]  glances,  with  large,  [beautiful]  eyes,    
   
      Sahih International
As  if  they  were  [delicate]  eggs,  well-protected.    
   
      Sahih International
And  they  will  approach  one  another,  inquiring  of  each  other.    
   
      Sahih International
A  speaker  among  them  will  say,  "Indeed,  I  had  a  companion  [on  earth]    
   
      Sahih International
Who  would  say,  'Are  you  indeed  of  those  who  believe    
   
      Sahih International
That  when  we  have  died  and  become  dust  and  bones,  we  will  indeed  be  recompensed?'"    
   
      Sahih International
He  will  say,  "Would  you  [care  to]  look?"    
   
      Sahih International
And  he  will  look  and  see  him  in  the  midst  of  the  Hellfire.    
   
      Sahih International
He  will  say,  "By Allah ,  you  almost  ruined  me.    
   
      Sahih International
If  not  for  the  favor  of  my  Lord,  I  would  have  been  of  those  brought  in  [to  Hell].    
   
      Sahih International
Then,  are  we  not  to  die    
   
      Sahih International
Except  for  our  first  death,  and  we  will  not  be  punished?"    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  this  is  the  great  attainment.    
   
      Sahih International
For  the  like  of  this  let  the  workers  [on  earth]  work.    
   
      Sahih International
Is  Paradise  a  better  accommodation  or  the  tree  of  zaqqum?    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  We  have  made  it  a  torment  for  the  wrongdoers.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  it  is  a  tree  issuing  from  the  bottom  of  the  Hellfire,    
   
      Sahih International
Its  emerging  fruit  as  if  it  was  heads  of  the  devils.    
   
      Sahih International
And  indeed,  they  will  eat  from  it  and  fill  with  it  their  bellies.    
   
      Sahih International
Then  indeed,  they  will  have  after  it  a  mixture  of  scalding  water.    
   
      Sahih International
Then  indeed,  their  return  will  be  to  the  Hellfire.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed  they  found  their  fathers  astray.    
   
      Sahih International
So  they  hastened  [to  follow]  in  their  footsteps.    
   
      Sahih International
And  there  had  already  strayed  before  them  most  of  the  former  peoples,    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  had  already  sent  among  them  warners.    
   
      Sahih International
Then  look  how  was  the  end  of  those  who  were  warned  -    
   
      Sahih International
But  not  the  chosen  servants  of Allah .    
   
      Sahih International
And  Noah  had  certainly  called  Us,  and  [We  are]  the  best  of  responders.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  saved  him  and  his  family  from  the  great  affliction.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  made  his  descendants  those  remaining  [on  the  earth]    
   
      Sahih International
And  left  for  him  [favorable  mention]  among  later  generations:    
   
      Sahih International
"Peace  upon  Noah  among  the  worlds."    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  We  thus  reward  the  doers  of  good.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  he  was  of  Our  believing  servants.    
   
      Sahih International
Then we drowned the others [i.e., disbelievers]    
   
      Sahih International
And  indeed,  among  his  kind  was  Abraham,    
   
      Sahih International
When  he  came  to  his  Lord  with  a  sound  heart    
   
      Sahih International
[And]  when  he  said  to  his  father  and  his  people,  "What  do  you  worship?    
   
      Sahih International
Is  it  falsehood  [as]  gods  other  than Allah you  desire?    
   
      Sahih International
Then  what  is  your  thought  about  the  Lord  of  the  worlds?"    
   
      Sahih International
And  he  cast  a  look  at  the  stars    
   
      Sahih International
And  said,  "Indeed,  I  am  [about  to  be]  ill."    
   
      Sahih International
So  they  turned  away  from  him,  departing.    
   
      Sahih International
Then  he  turned  to  their  gods  and  said,  "Do  you  not  eat?    
   
      Sahih International
What  is  [wrong]  with  you  that  you  do  not  speak?"    
   
      Sahih International
And  he  turned  upon  them  a  blow  with  [his]  right  hand.    
   
      Sahih International
Then  the  people  came  toward  him,  hastening.    
   
      Sahih International
He  said,  "Do  you  worship  that  which  you  [yourselves]  carve,    
   
      Sahih International
While Allah created  you  and  that  which  you  do?"    
   
      Sahih International
They  said,  "Construct  for  him  a  furnace  and  throw  him  into  the  burning  fire."    
   
      Sahih International
And  they  intended  for  him  a  plan,  but  We  made  them  the  most  debased.    
   
      Sahih International
And  [then]  he  said,  "Indeed,  I  will  go  to  [where  I  am  ordered  by]  my  Lord;  He  will  guide me.    
   
      Sahih International
My  Lord,  grant  me  [a  child]  from  among  the  righteous."    
   
      Sahih International
So  We  gave  him  good  tidings  of  a  forbearing  boy.    
   
      Sahih International
And  when  he  reached  with  him  [the  age  of]  exertion,  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 Allah wills,  of  the  steadfast."    
   
      Sahih International
And  when  they  had  both  submitted  and  he  put  him  down  upon  his  forehead,    
   
      Sahih International
We  called  to  him,  "O  Abraham,    
   
      Sahih International
You  have  fulfilled  the  vision."  Indeed,  We  thus  reward  the  doers  of  good.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  this  was  the  clear  trial.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  ransomed  him  with  a  great  sacrifice,    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  left  for  him  [favorable  mention]  among  later  generations:    
   
      Sahih International
"Peace  upon  Abraham."    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  We  thus  reward  the  doers  of  good.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  he  was  of  Our  believing  servants.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  gave  him  good  tidings  of  Isaac,  a  prophet  from  among  the  righteous.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  blessed  him  and  Isaac.  But  among  their  descendants  is  the  doer  of  good  and the  clearly  unjust  to  himself.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  did  certainly  confer  favor  upon  Moses  and  Aaron.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  saved  them  and  their  people  from  the  great  affliction,    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  supported  them  so  it  was  they  who  overcame.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  gave  them  the  explicit  Scripture,    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  guided  them  on  the  straight  path.    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  left  for  them  [favorable  mention]  among  later  generations:    
   
      Sahih International
"Peace  upon  Moses  and  Aaron."    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  We  thus  reward  the  doers  of  good.    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  they  were  of  Our  believing  servants.    
   
      Sahih International
And  indeed,  Elias  was  from  among  the  messengers,    
   
      Sahih International
When  he  said  to  his  people,  "Will  you  not  fear Allah ?    
   
      Sahih International
Do  you  call  upon  Ba'l  and  leave  the  best  of  creators  -    
   
      Sahih International
Allah ,  your  Lord  and  the  Lord  of  your  first  forefathers?"    
   
      Sahih International
And  they  denied  him,  so  indeed,  they  will  be  brought  [for  punishment],    
   
      Sahih International
Except  the  chosen  servants  of Allah .    
   
      Sahih International
And  We  left  for  him  [favorable  mention]  among  later  generations:    
   
      Sahih International
"Peace  upon  Elias."    
   
      Sahih International
Indeed,  We  thus  reward  the  doers  of  good.
