وَاتَّقُوا الَّذِيۡ خَلَقَكُمۡ وَالۡجِبِلَّةَ الۡاَوَّلِيۡنَؕ‏

And fear He who created you and the former creation

قَالُوۡ٘ا اِنَّمَا٘ اَنۡتَ مِنَ الۡمُسَحَّرِيۡنَۙ‏

They said, "You are only of those affected by magic

وَمَا٘ اَنۡتَ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثۡلُنَا وَاِنۡ نَّظُنُّكَ لَمِنَ الۡكٰذِبِيۡنَۚ‏

You are but a man like ourselves, and indeed, we think you are among the liars

فَاَسۡقِطۡ عَلَيۡنَا كِسَفًا مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ اِنۡ كُنۡتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقِيۡنَؕ‏

So cause to fall upon us fragments of the sky, if you should be of the truthful

قَالَ رَبِّيۡ٘ اَعۡلَمُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُوۡنَ

He said, "My Lord is most knowing of what you do

فَكَذَّبُوۡهُ فَاَخَذَهُمۡ عَذَابُ يَوۡمِ الظُّلَّةِؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ عَذَابَ يَوۡمٍ عَظِيۡمٍ

And they denied him, so the punishment of the day of the black cloud seized them. Indeed, it was the punishment of a terrible day

اِنَّ فِيۡ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيَةًؕ وَمَا كَانَ اَكۡثَرُهُمۡ مُّؤۡمِنِيۡنَ

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الۡعَزِيۡزُ الرَّحِيۡمُࣖ‏

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

وَاِنَّهٗ لَتَنۡزِيۡلُ رَبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَؕ‏

And indeed, the Qur'an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds

نَزَلَ بِهِ الرُّوۡحُ الۡاَمِيۡنُۙ‏

The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down

عَلٰي قَلۡبِكَ لِتَكُوۡنَ مِنَ الۡمُنۡذِرِيۡنَۙ‏

Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] - that you may be of the warners

بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ مُّبِيۡنٍؕ‏

In a clear Arabic language

وَاِنَّهٗ لَفِيۡ زُبُرِ الۡاَوَّلِيۡنَ

And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples

اَوَلَمۡ يَكُنۡ لَّهُمۡ اٰيَةً اَنۡ يَّعۡلَمَهٗ عُلَمٰٓؤُا بَنِيۡ٘ اِسۡرَآءِيۡلَؕ‏

And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel

وَلَوۡ نَزَّلۡنٰهُ عَلٰي بَعۡضِ الۡاَعۡجَمِيۡنَۙ‏

And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners

فَقَرَاَهٗ عَلَيۡهِمۡ مَّا كَانُوۡا بِهٖ مُؤۡمِنِيۡنَؕ‏

And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it

كَذٰلِكَ سَلَكۡنٰهُ فِيۡ قُلُوۡبِ الۡمُجۡرِمِيۡنَؕ‏

Thus have We inserted disbelief into the hearts of the criminals

لَا يُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ بِهٖ حَتّٰي يَرَوُا الۡعَذَابَ الۡاَلِيۡمَۙ‏

They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment

فَيَاۡتِيَهُمۡ بَغۡتَةً وَّهُمۡ لَا يَشۡعُرُوۡنَۙ‏

And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not

فَيَقُوۡلُوۡا هَلۡ نَحۡنُ مُنۡظَرُوۡنَؕ‏

And they will say, "May we be reprieved

اَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُوۡنَ

So for Our punishment are they impatient

اَفَرَءَيۡتَ اِنۡ مَّتَّعۡنٰهُمۡ سِنِيۡنَۙ‏

Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years

ثُمَّ جَآءَهُمۡ مَّا كَانُوۡا يُوۡعَدُوۡنَۙ‏

And then there came to them that which they were promised
