۞ وَيَـٰقَوْمِ And O my people wayāqawmi What (is) mā for me lī (that) I call you adʿūkum to ilā the salvation l-najati while you call me watadʿūnanī to ilā the Fire l-nāri
And O my people, how is it that I invite you to salvation while you invite me to the Fire?
تَدْعُونَنِى You call me tadʿūnanī that I disbelieve li-akfura in Allah bil-lahi and (to) associate wa-ush'rika with Him bihi what mā not laysa for me lī of it bihi any knowledge ʿil'mun and I wa-anā call you adʿūkum to ilā the All-Mighty l-ʿazīzi the Oft-Forgiving l-ghafāri
You invite me to disbelieve in Allāh and associate with Him that of which I have no knowledge, and I invite you to the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver.1
لَا No lā doubt jarama that what annamā you call me tadʿūnanī to it ilayhi not laysa for it lahu a claim daʿwatun in fī the world l-dun'yā and not walā in fī the Hereafter l-ākhirati and that wa-anna our return maraddanā (is) to ilā Allah l-lahi and that wa-anna the transgressors l-mus'rifīna they hum (will be the) companions aṣḥābu (of) the Fire l-nāri
Assuredly, that to which you invite me has no [response to a] supplication in this world or in the Hereafter; and indeed, our return is to Allāh, and indeed, the transgressors will be companions of the Fire.
فَسَتَذْكُرُونَ And you will remember fasatadhkurūna what mā I say aqūlu to you lakum and I entrust wa-ufawwiḍu my affair amrī to ilā Allah l-lahi Indeed inna Allah l-laha (is) All-Seer baṣīrun of (His) slaves bil-ʿibādi
And you will remember what I [now] say to you, and I entrust my affair to Allāh. Indeed, Allāh is Seeing of [His] servants."
فَوَقَىٰهُ So Allah protected him fawaqāhu So Allah protected him l-lahu (from the) evils sayyiāti that mā they plotted makarū and enveloped waḥāqa (the) people biāli (of) Firaun fir'ʿawna (the) worst sūu punishment l-ʿadhābi
So Allāh protected him from the evils they plotted, and the people of Pharaoh were enveloped by the worst of punishment -
ٱلنَّارُ The Fire al-nāru they are exposed yuʿ'raḍūna to it ʿalayhā morning ghuduwwan and evening waʿashiyyan And (the) Day wayawma (will be) established taqūmu the Hour l-sāʿatu Cause to enter adkhilū (the) people āla (of) Firaun fir'ʿawna (in the) severest ashadda punishment l-ʿadhābi
The Fire; they are exposed to it morning and evening.1 And the Day the Hour appears [it will be said], "Make the people of Pharaoh enter the severest punishment."
وَإِذْ And when wa-idh they will dispute yataḥājjūna in fī the Fire l-nāri then will say fayaqūlu the weak l-ḍuʿafāu to those who lilladhīna were arrogant is'takbarū Indeed, we innā [we] were kunnā for you lakum followers tabaʿan so can fahal you antum avert mugh'nūna from us ʿannā a portion naṣīban of mina the Fire l-nāri
And [mention] when they will argue within the Fire, and the weak will say to those who had been arrogant, "Indeed, we were [only] your followers, so will you relieve us of a share of the Fire?"
قَالَ Will say qāla those who alladhīna (were) arrogant is'takbarū Indeed, we innā all kullun (are) in it fīhā Indeed inna Allah l-laha certainly qad has judged ḥakama between bayna (His) slaves l-ʿibādi
Those who had been arrogant will say, "Indeed, all [of us] are in it. Indeed, Allāh has judged between the servants."
وَقَالَ And will say waqāla those alladhīna in fī the Fire l-nāri to (the) keepers likhazanati (of) Hell jahannama Call id'ʿū your Lord rabbakum (to) lighten yukhaffif for us ʿannā a day yawman of mina the punishment l-ʿadhābi
And those in the Fire will say to the keepers of Hell, "Supplicate your Lord to lighten for us a day from the punishment."
