وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ ۗ وَإِنَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ لَءَاتِيَةٌۭ ۖ فَٱصْفَحِ ٱلصَّفْحَ ٱلْجَمِيلَ
Wama khalaqna alssamawati waalarda wama baynahuma illa bialhaqqi wainna alssaAAata laatiyatun faisfahi alssafha aljameela
And We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them except with truth, and the Hour is surely coming, so overlook (O Muhammad SAW), their faults with gracious forgiveness. [This was before the ordainment of Jihad holy fighting in Allah's Cause].
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ ٱلْخَلَّٰقُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ
Inna rabbaka huwa alkhallaqu alAAaleemu
Verily, your Lord is the All-Knowing Creator.
وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَٰكَ سَبْعًۭا مِّنَ ٱلْمَثَانِى وَٱلْقُرْءَانَ ٱلْعَظِيمَ
Walaqad ataynaka sabAAan mina almathanee waalqurana alAAatheema
And indeed, We have bestowed upon you seven of Al-Mathani (the seven repeatedly recited Verses), (i.e. Surat Al-Fatiha) and the Grand Quran.
لَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَىٰ مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِۦٓ أَزْوَٰجًۭا مِّنْهُمْ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَٱخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
La tamuddanna AAaynayka ila ma mattaAAna bihi azwajan minhum wala tahzan AAalayhim waikhfid janahaka lilmumineena
Look not with your eyes ambitiously at what We have bestowed on certain classes of them (the disbelievers), nor grieve over them. And lower your wings for the believers (be courteous to the fellow-believers).
وَقُلْ إِنِّىٓ أَنَا ٱلنَّذِيرُ ٱلْمُبِينُ
Waqul innee ana alnnatheeru almubeenu
And say: "I am indeed a plain warner."
كَمَآ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَى ٱلْمُقْتَسِمِينَ
Kama anzalna AAala almuqtasimeena
As We have sent down on the dividers, (Quraish pagans or Jews and Christians).
ٱلَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا۟ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ عِضِينَ
Allatheena jaAAaloo alqurana AAideena
Who have made the Quran into parts. (i.e. believed in a part and disbelieved in the other).
فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَسْـَٔلَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
Fawarabbika lanasalannahum ajmaAAeena
So, by your Lord (O Muhammad SAW), We shall certainly call all of them to account.
عَمَّا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ
AAamma kanoo yaAAmaloona
For all that they used to do.
فَٱصْدَعْ بِمَا تُؤْمَرُ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ
FaisdaAA bima tumaru waaAArid AAani almushrikeena
Therefore proclaim openly (Allah's Message Islamic Monotheism) that which you are commanded, and turn away from Al-Mushrikun (polytheists, idolaters, and disbelievers, etc. - see V. 2:105).
إِنَّا كَفَيْنَٰكَ ٱلْمُسْتَهْزِءِينَ
Inna kafaynaka almustahzieena
Truly! We will suffice you against the scoffers.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَجْعَلُونَ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۚ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
Allatheena yajAAaloona maAAa Allahi ilahan akhara fasawfa yaAAlamoona
Who set up along with Allah another ilah (god), they will come to know.
وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ يَضِيقُ صَدْرُكَ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ
Walaqad naAAlamu annaka yadeequ sadruka bima yaqooloona
Indeed, We know that your breast is straitened at what they say.
فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَكُن مِّنَ ٱلسَّٰجِدِينَ
Fasabbih bihamdi rabbika wakun mina alssajideena
So glorify the praises of your Lord and be of those who prostrate themselves (to Him).
وَٱعْبُدْ رَبَّكَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِيَكَ ٱلْيَقِينُ
WaoAAbud rabbaka hatta yatiyaka alyaqeenu
And worship your Lord until there comes unto you the certainty (i.e. death).
