   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   سَأَلَ سَآئِلٌۢ بِعَذَابٍۢ وَاقِعٍۢ١

   A supplicant asked for a punishment bound to happen

   لِّلْكَٰفِرِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُۥ دَافِعٌۭ٢

   To the disbelievers; of it there is no preventer.

   مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ ذِى ٱلْمَعَارِجِ٣

   [It is] from Allah, owner of the ways of ascent.

   تَعْرُجُ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ إِلَيْهِ فِى يَوْمٍۢ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهُۥ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍۢ٤

   The angels and the Spirit will ascend to Him during a Day the extent of which is fifty thousand years.

   فَٱصْبِرْ صَبْرًۭا جَمِيلًا٥

   So be patient with gracious patience.

   إِنَّهُمْ يَرَوْنَهُۥ بَعِيدًۭا٦

   Indeed, they see it [as] distant,

   وَنَرَىٰهُ قَرِيبًۭا٧

   But We see it [as] near.

   يَوْمَ تَكُونُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ كَٱلْمُهْلِ٨

   On the Day the sky will be like murky oil,

   وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ٩

   And the mountains will be like wool,

   وَلَا يَسْـَٔلُ حَمِيمٌ حَمِيمًۭا١٠

   And no friend will ask [anything of] a friend,

   يُبَصَّرُونَهُمْ ۚ يَوَدُّ ٱلْمُجْرِمُ لَوْ يَفْتَدِى مِنْ عَذَابِ يَوْمِئِذٍۭ بِبَنِيهِ١١

   They will be shown each other. The criminal will wish that he could be ransomed from the punishment of that Day by his children

   وَصَٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَأَخِيهِ١٢

   And his wife and his brother

   وَفَصِيلَتِهِ ٱلَّتِى تُـْٔوِيهِ١٣

   And his nearest kindred who shelter him

   وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًۭا ثُمَّ يُنجِيهِ١٤

   And whoever is on earth entirely [so] then it could save him.

   كَلَّآ ۖ إِنَّهَا لَظَىٰ١٥

   No! Indeed, it is the Flame [of Hell],

   نَزَّاعَةًۭ لِّلشَّوَىٰ١٦

   A remover of exteriors.

   تَدْعُوا۟ مَنْ أَدْبَرَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ١٧

   It invites he who turned his back [on truth] and went away [from obedience]

   وَجَمَعَ فَأَوْعَىٰٓ١٨

   And collected [wealth] and hoarded.

   ۞ إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ خُلِقَ هَلُوعًا١٩

   Indeed, mankind was created anxious:

   إِذَا مَسَّهُ ٱلشَّرُّ جَزُوعًۭا٢٠

   When evil touches him, impatient,

   وَإِذَا مَسَّهُ ٱلْخَيْرُ مَنُوعًا٢١

   And when good touches him, withholding [of it],

   إِلَّا ٱلْمُصَلِّينَ٢٢

   Except the observers of prayer -

   ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَىٰ صَلَاتِهِمْ دَآئِمُونَ٢٣

   Those who are constant in their prayer

   وَٱلَّذِينَ فِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّۭ مَّعْلُومٌۭ٢٤

   And those within whose wealth is a known right

   لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ٢٥

   For the petitioner and the deprived -

   وَٱلَّذِينَ يُصَدِّقُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ٢٦

   And those who believe in the Day of Recompense

   وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم مِّنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّهِم مُّشْفِقُونَ٢٧

   And those who are fearful of the punishment of their Lord -

   إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّهِمْ غَيْرُ مَأْمُونٍۢ٢٨

   Indeed, the punishment of their Lord is not that from which one is safe -

   وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَٰفِظُونَ٢٩

   And those who guard their private parts

   إِلَّا عَلَىٰٓ أَزْوَٰجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَٰنُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُومِينَ٣٠

   Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they are not to be blamed -

   فَمَنِ ٱبْتَغَىٰ وَرَآءَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْعَادُونَ٣١

   But whoever seeks beyond that, then they are the transgressors -

   وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَٰنَٰتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَٰعُونَ٣٢

   And those who are to their trusts and promises attentive

   وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم بِشَهَٰدَٰتِهِمْ قَآئِمُونَ٣٣

   And those who are in their testimonies upright

   وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَىٰ صَلَاتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ٣٤

   And those who [carefully] maintain their prayer:

   أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ مُّكْرَمُونَ٣٥

   They will be in gardens, honored.

   فَمَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ قِبَلَكَ مُهْطِعِينَ٣٦

   So what is [the matter] with those who disbelieve, hastening [from] before you, [O Muhammad],

   عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ ٱلشِّمَالِ عِزِينَ٣٧

   [To sit] on [your] right and [your] left in separate groups?

   أَيَطْمَعُ كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍۢ مِّنْهُمْ أَن يُدْخَلَ جَنَّةَ نَعِيمٍۢ٣٨

   Does every person among them aspire to enter a garden of pleasure?

   كَلَّآ ۖ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَٰهُم مِّمَّا يَعْلَمُونَ٣٩

   No! Indeed, We have created them from that which they know.

   فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِرَبِّ ٱلْمَشَٰرِقِ وَٱلْمَغَٰرِبِ إِنَّا لَقَٰدِرُونَ٤٠

   So I swear by the Lord of [all] risings and settings that indeed We are able

   Read the passage · At-Takaathur

   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   أَلْهَىٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ١

   Competition in [worldly] increase diverts you

   حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ٢

   Until you visit the graveyards.

   كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ٣

   No! You are going to know.

   ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ٤

   Then no! You are going to know.

   كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ٥

   No! If you only knew with knowledge of certainty...

   لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ٦

   You will surely see the Hellfire.

   ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ٧

   Then you will surely see it with the eye of certainty.

   ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ٨

   Then you will surely be asked that Day about pleasure.

   Read the passage · Al-Maa'un

   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   أَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى يُكَذِّبُ بِٱلدِّينِ١

   Have you seen the one who denies the Recompense?

   فَذَٰلِكَ ٱلَّذِى يَدُعُّ ٱلْيَتِيمَ٢

   For that is the one who drives away the orphan

   وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ٣

   And does not encourage the feeding of the poor.

   فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلْمُصَلِّينَ٤

   So woe to those who pray

   ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَن صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ٥

   [But] who are heedless of their prayer -

   ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَآءُونَ٦

   Those who make show [of their deeds]

   وَيَمْنَعُونَ ٱلْمَاعُونَ٧

   And withhold [simple] assistance.

   Read the passage · An-Nahl 1–13

   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   أَتَىٰٓ أَمْرُ ٱللَّهِ فَلَا تَسْتَعْجِلُوهُ ۚ سُبْحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ١

   The command of Allah is coming, so be not impatient for it. Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him.

   يُنَزِّلُ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ بِٱلرُّوحِ مِنْ أَمْرِهِۦ عَلَىٰ مَن يَشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦٓ أَنْ أَنذِرُوٓا۟ أَنَّهُۥ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّآ أَنَا۠ فَٱتَّقُونِ٢

   He sends down the angels, with the inspiration of His command, upon whom He wills of His servants, [telling them], "Warn that there is no deity except Me; so fear Me."

   خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ بِٱلْحَقِّ ۚ تَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ٣

   He created the heavens and earth in truth. High is He above what they associate with Him.

   خَلَقَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ مِن نُّطْفَةٍۢ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ٤

   He created man from a sperm-drop; then at once, he is a clear adversary.

   وَٱلْأَنْعَٰمَ خَلَقَهَا ۗ لَكُمْ فِيهَا دِفْءٌۭ وَمَنَٰفِعُ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَ٥

   And the grazing livestock He has created for you; in them is warmth and [numerous] benefits, and from them you eat.

   وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا جَمَالٌ حِينَ تُرِيحُونَ وَحِينَ تَسْرَحُونَ٦

   And for you in them is [the enjoyment of] beauty when you bring them in [for the evening] and when you send them out [to pasture].

   وَتَحْمِلُ أَثْقَالَكُمْ إِلَىٰ بَلَدٍۢ لَّمْ تَكُونُوا۟ بَٰلِغِيهِ إِلَّا بِشِقِّ ٱلْأَنفُسِ ۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ لَرَءُوفٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ٧

   And they carry your loads to a land you could not have reached except with difficulty to yourselves. Indeed, your Lord is Kind and Merciful.

   وَٱلْخَيْلَ وَٱلْبِغَالَ وَٱلْحَمِيرَ لِتَرْكَبُوهَا وَزِينَةًۭ ۚ وَيَخْلُقُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ٨

   And [He created] the horses, mules and donkeys for you to ride and [as] adornment. And He creates that which you do not know.

   وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ قَصْدُ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَمِنْهَا جَآئِرٌۭ ۚ وَلَوْ شَآءَ لَهَدَىٰكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ٩

   And upon Allah is the direction of the [right] way, and among the various paths are those deviating. And if He willed, He could have guided you all.

   هُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۭ ۖ لَّكُم مِّنْهُ شَرَابٌۭ وَمِنْهُ شَجَرٌۭ فِيهِ تُسِيمُونَ١٠

   It is He who sends down rain from the sky; from it is drink and from it is foliage in which you pasture [animals].

   يُنۢبِتُ لَكُم بِهِ ٱلزَّرْعَ وَٱلزَّيْتُونَ وَٱلنَّخِيلَ وَٱلْأَعْنَٰبَ وَمِن كُلِّ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَةًۭ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ١١

   He causes to grow for you thereby the crops, olives, palm trees, grapevines, and from all the fruits. Indeed in that is a sign for a people who give thought.

   وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ وَٱلشَّمْسَ وَٱلْقَمَرَ ۖ وَٱلنُّجُومُ مُسَخَّرَٰتٌۢ بِأَمْرِهِۦٓ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍۢ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يَعْقِلُونَ١٢

   And He has subjected for you the night and day and the sun and moon, and the stars are subjected by His command. Indeed in that are signs for a people who reason.

   وَمَا ذَرَأَ لَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُخْتَلِفًا أَلْوَٰنُهُۥٓ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَةًۭ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يَذَّكَّرُونَ١٣

   And [He has subjected] whatever He multiplied for you on the earth of varying colors. Indeed in that is a sign for a people who remember.
