   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   وَٱلذَّٰرِيَٰتِ ذَرْوًۭا١

   By those [winds] scattering [dust] dispersing

   فَٱلْحَٰمِلَٰتِ وِقْرًۭا٢

   And those [clouds] carrying a load [of water]

   فَٱلْجَٰرِيَٰتِ يُسْرًۭا٣

   And those [ships] sailing with ease

   فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَٰتِ أَمْرًا٤

   And those [angels] apportioning [each] matter,

   إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌۭ٥

   Indeed, what you are promised is true.

   وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌۭ٦

   And indeed, the recompense is to occur.

   وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ٧

   By the heaven containing pathways,

   إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍۢ مُّخْتَلِفٍۢ٨

   Indeed, you are in differing speech.

   يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ٩

   Deluded away from the Qur'an is he who is deluded.

   قُتِلَ ٱلْخَرَّٰصُونَ١٠

   Destroyed are the falsifiers

   ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍۢ سَاهُونَ١١

   Who are within a flood [of confusion] and heedless.

   يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ١٢

   They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?"

   يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ١٣

   [It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire

   ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ١٤

   [And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient."

   إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍ١٥

   Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs,

   ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ١٦

   Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good.

   كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًۭا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ١٧

   They used to sleep but little of the night,

   وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ١٨

   And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,

   وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّۭ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ١٩

   And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived.

   وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَٰتٌۭ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ٢٠

   And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]

   وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ٢١

   And in yourselves. Then will you not see?

   وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ٢٢

   And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.

   فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّۭ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ٢٣

   Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking.

   هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ٢٤

   Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham? -

   إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَٰمًۭا ۖ قَالَ سَلَٰمٌۭ قَوْمٌۭ مُّنكَرُونَ٢٥

   When they entered upon him and said, "[We greet you with] peace." He answered, "[And upon you] peace, [you are] a people unknown.

   فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍۢ سَمِينٍۢ٢٦

   Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf

   فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ٢٧

   And placed it near them; he said, "Will you not eat?"

   فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةًۭ ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ عَلِيمٍۢ٢٨

   And he felt from them apprehension. They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.

   فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍۢ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌۭ٢٩

   And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, "[I am] a barren old woman!"

   قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ٣٠

   They said, "Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing."

   ۞ قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ٣١

   [Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"

   قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍۢ مُّجْرِمِينَ٣٢

   They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals

   لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةًۭ مِّن طِينٍۢ٣٣

   To send down upon them stones of clay,

   مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ٣٤

   Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors."

   فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ٣٥

   So We brought out whoever was in the cities of the believers.

   فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ٣٦

   And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims.

   وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ٣٧

   And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment.

   وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ٣٨

   And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.

   فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌۭ٣٩

   But he turned away with his supporters and said," A magician or a madman."

   فَأَخَذْنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌۭ٤٠

   So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.

   Read the passage · Al-Ahzaab 41–48

   يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ ذِكْرًۭا كَثِيرًۭا٤١

   O you who have believed, remember Allah with much remembrance

   وَسَبِّحُوهُ بُكْرَةًۭ وَأَصِيلًا٤٢

   And exalt Him morning and afternoon.

   هُوَ ٱلَّذِى يُصَلِّى عَلَيْكُمْ وَمَلَٰٓئِكَتُهُۥ لِيُخْرِجَكُم مِّنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ ۚ وَكَانَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَحِيمًۭا٤٣

   It is He who confers blessing upon you, and His angels [ask Him to do so] that He may bring you out from darknesses into the light. And ever is He, to the believers, Merciful.

   تَحِيَّتُهُمْ يَوْمَ يَلْقَوْنَهُۥ سَلَٰمٌۭ ۚ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًۭا كَرِيمًۭا٤٤

   Their greeting the Day they meet Him will be, "Peace." And He has prepared for them a noble reward.

   يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَٰكَ شَٰهِدًۭا وَمُبَشِّرًۭا وَنَذِيرًۭا٤٥

   O Prophet, indeed We have sent you as a witness and a bringer of good tidings and a warner.

   وَدَاعِيًا إِلَى ٱللَّهِ بِإِذْنِهِۦ وَسِرَاجًۭا مُّنِيرًۭا٤٦

   And one who invites to Allah, by His permission, and an illuminating lamp.

   وَبَشِّرِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِأَنَّ لَهُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ فَضْلًۭا كَبِيرًۭا٤٧

   And give good tidings to the believers that they will have from Allah great bounty.

   وَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ وَٱلْمُنَٰفِقِينَ وَدَعْ أَذَىٰهُمْ وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ وَكِيلًۭا٤٨

   And do not obey the disbelievers and the hypocrites but do not harm them, and rely upon Allah. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs.

   Read the passage · Maryam 41–57

   وَٱذْكُرْ فِى ٱلْكِتَٰبِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ صِدِّيقًۭا نَّبِيًّا٤١

   And mention in the Book [the story of] Abraham. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet.

   إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ يَٰٓأَبَتِ لِمَ تَعْبُدُ مَا لَا يَسْمَعُ وَلَا يُبْصِرُ وَلَا يُغْنِى عَنكَ شَيْـًۭٔا٤٢

   [Mention] when he said to his father, "O my father, why do you worship that which does not hear and does not see and will not benefit you at all?

   يَٰٓأَبَتِ إِنِّى قَدْ جَآءَنِى مِنَ ٱلْعِلْمِ مَا لَمْ يَأْتِكَ فَٱتَّبِعْنِىٓ أَهْدِكَ صِرَٰطًۭا سَوِيًّۭا٤٣

   O my father, indeed there has come to me of knowledge that which has not come to you, so follow me; I will guide you to an even path.

   يَٰٓأَبَتِ لَا تَعْبُدِ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنَ ۖ إِنَّ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنَ كَانَ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ عَصِيًّۭا٤٤

   O my father, do not worship Satan. Indeed Satan has ever been, to the Most Merciful, disobedient.

   يَٰٓأَبَتِ إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ أَن يَمَسَّكَ عَذَابٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ فَتَكُونَ لِلشَّيْطَٰنِ وَلِيًّۭا٤٥

   O my father, indeed I fear that there will touch you a punishment from the Most Merciful so you would be to Satan a companion [in Hellfire]."

   قَالَ أَرَاغِبٌ أَنتَ عَنْ ءَالِهَتِى يَٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ ۖ لَئِن لَّمْ تَنتَهِ لَأَرْجُمَنَّكَ ۖ وَٱهْجُرْنِى مَلِيًّۭا٤٦

   [His father] said, "Have you no desire for my gods, O Abraham? If you do not desist, I will surely stone you, so avoid me a prolonged time."

   قَالَ سَلَٰمٌ عَلَيْكَ ۖ سَأَسْتَغْفِرُ لَكَ رَبِّىٓ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ بِى حَفِيًّۭا٤٧

   [Abraham] said, "Peace will be upon you. I will ask forgiveness for you of my Lord. Indeed, He is ever gracious to me.

   وَأَعْتَزِلُكُمْ وَمَا تَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَأَدْعُوا۟ رَبِّى عَسَىٰٓ أَلَّآ أَكُونَ بِدُعَآءِ رَبِّى شَقِيًّۭا٤٨

   And I will leave you and those you invoke other than Allah and will invoke my Lord. I expect that I will not be in invocation to my Lord unhappy."

   فَلَمَّا ٱعْتَزَلَهُمْ وَمَا يَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَهَبْنَا لَهُۥٓ إِسْحَٰقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ ۖ وَكُلًّۭا جَعَلْنَا نَبِيًّۭا٤٩

   So when he had left them and those they worshipped other than Allah, We gave him Isaac and Jacob, and each [of them] We made a prophet.

   وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُم مِّن رَّحْمَتِنَا وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُمْ لِسَانَ صِدْقٍ عَلِيًّۭا٥٠

   And We gave them of Our mercy, and we made for them a reputation of high honor.

   وَٱذْكُرْ فِى ٱلْكِتَٰبِ مُوسَىٰٓ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مُخْلَصًۭا وَكَانَ رَسُولًۭا نَّبِيًّۭا٥١

   And mention in the Book, Moses. Indeed, he was chosen, and he was a messenger and a prophet.

   وَنَٰدَيْنَٰهُ مِن جَانِبِ ٱلطُّورِ ٱلْأَيْمَنِ وَقَرَّبْنَٰهُ نَجِيًّۭا٥٢

   And We called him from the side of the mount at [his] right and brought him near, confiding [to him].

   وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُۥ مِن رَّحْمَتِنَآ أَخَاهُ هَٰرُونَ نَبِيًّۭا٥٣

   And We gave him out of Our mercy his brother Aaron as a prophet.

   وَٱذْكُرْ فِى ٱلْكِتَٰبِ إِسْمَٰعِيلَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ صَادِقَ ٱلْوَعْدِ وَكَانَ رَسُولًۭا نَّبِيًّۭا٥٤

   And mention in the Book, Ishmael. Indeed, he was true to his promise, and he was a messenger and a prophet.

   وَكَانَ يَأْمُرُ أَهْلَهُۥ بِٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَٱلزَّكَوٰةِ وَكَانَ عِندَ رَبِّهِۦ مَرْضِيًّۭا٥٥

   And he used to enjoin on his people prayer and zakah and was to his Lord pleasing.

   وَٱذْكُرْ فِى ٱلْكِتَٰبِ إِدْرِيسَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ صِدِّيقًۭا نَّبِيًّۭا٥٦

   And mention in the Book, Idrees. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet.

   وَرَفَعْنَٰهُ مَكَانًا عَلِيًّا٥٧

   And We raised him to a high station.
