إِنَّآ Indeed We innā We revealed anzalnā to you ʿalayka the Book l-kitāba for [the] mankind lilnnāsi in truth bil-ḥaqi So whoever famani accepts guidance ih'tadā then (it is) for his soul falinafsihi and whoever waman goes astray ḍalla then only fa-innamā he strays yaḍillu against his (soul) ʿalayhā And not wamā you anta (are) over them ʿalayhim a manager biwakīlin
Indeed, We sent down to you the Book for the people in truth. So whoever is guided - it is for [the benefit of] his soul; and whoever goes astray only goes astray to its detriment. And you are not a manager [i.e., authority] over them.
ٱللَّهُ Allah al-lahu takes yatawaffā the souls l-anfusa (at the) time ḥīna (of) their death mawtihā and the one who wa-allatī (does) not lam die tamut in fī their sleep manāmihā Then He keeps fayum'siku the one whom allatī He has decreed qaḍā for them ʿalayhā the death l-mawta and sends wayur'silu the others l-ukh'rā for ilā a term ajalin specified musamman Indeed inna in fī that dhālika surely (are) signs laāyātin for a people liqawmin who ponder yatafakkarūna
Allāh takes the souls at the time of their death, and those that do not die [He takes] during their sleep. Then He keeps those for which He has decreed death and releases the others for a specified term. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.
أَمِ Or ami have they taken ittakhadhū besides min besides dūni Allah l-lahi intercessors shufaʿāa Say qul Even though awalaw they were kānū not lā possessing yamlikūna anything shayan and not walā they understand yaʿqilūna
Or have they taken other than Allāh as intercessors? Say, "Even though they do not possess [power over] anything, nor do they reason?"
قُل Say qul To Allah (belongs) lillahi the intercession l-shafāʿatu all jamīʿan For Him lahu (is the) dominion mul'ku (of) the heavens l-samāwāti and the earth wal-arḍi Then thumma to Him ilayhi you will be returned tur'jaʿūna
Say, "To Allāh belongs [the right to allow] intercession entirely. To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. Then to Him you will be returned."
وَإِذَا And when wa-idhā Allah is mentioned dhukira Allah is mentioned l-lahu Alone waḥdahu shrink with aversion ish'ma-azzat (the) hearts qulūbu (of) those who alladhīna (do) not lā believe yu'minūna in the Hereafter bil-ākhirati and when wa-idhā are mentioned dhukira those alladhīna besides Him min besides Him dūnihi behold idhā They hum rejoice yastabshirūna
And when Allāh is mentioned alone, the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter shrink with aversion, but when those [worshipped] other than Him are mentioned, immediately they rejoice.
قُلِ Say quli O Allah l-lahuma Creator fāṭira (of) the heavens l-samāwāti and the earth wal-arḍi Knower ʿālima (of) the unseen l-ghaybi and the witnessed wal-shahādati You anta will judge taḥkumu between bayna Your slaves ʿibādika in fī what mā they used to kānū therein fīhi differ yakhtalifūna
Say, "O Allāh, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, You will judge between your servants concerning that over which they used to differ."
وَلَوْ And if walaw And if anna those who lilladhīna did wrong ẓalamū (had) whatever mā (is) in fī the earth l-arḍi all jamīʿan and (the) like of it wamith'lahu with it maʿahu they would ransom la-if'tadaw with it bihi from min (the) evil sūi (of) the punishment l-ʿadhābi (on the) Day yawma (of) the Resurrection l-qiyāmati And (will) appear wabadā to them lahum from mina Allah l-lahi what mā not lam they had yakūnū taken into account yaḥtasibūna
And if those who did wrong had all that is in the earth entirely and the like of it with it, they would [attempt to] ransom themselves thereby from the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection. And there will appear to them from Allāh that which they had not taken into account.1
