فَكَذَّبُوۡهُ فَاِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُوۡنَۙ‏

And they denied him, so indeed, they will be brought [for punishment]

اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الۡمُخۡلَصِيۡنَ

Except the chosen servants of Allah

وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ فِي الۡاٰخِرِيۡنَۙ‏

And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations

سَلٰمٌ عَلٰ٘ي اِلۡ يَاسِيۡنَ

Peace upon Elias

اِنَّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي الۡمُحۡسِنِيۡنَ

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good

اِنَّهٗ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ

Indeed, he was of Our believing servants

وَاِنَّ لُوۡطًا لَّمِنَ الۡمُرۡسَلِيۡنَؕ‏

And indeed, Lot was among the messengers

اِذۡ نَجَّيۡنٰهُ وَاَهۡلَهٗ٘ اَجۡمَعِيۡنَۙ‏

[So mention] when We saved him and his family, all

اِلَّا عَجُوۡزًا فِي الۡغٰبِرِيۡنَ

Except his wife among those who remained [with the evildoers]

ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا الۡاٰخَرِيۡنَ

Then We destroyed the others

وَاِنَّكُمۡ لَتَمُرُّوۡنَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ مُّصۡبِحِيۡنَۙ‏

And indeed, you pass by them in the morning

وَبِالَّيۡلِؕ اَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُوۡنَࣖ‏

And at night. Then will you not use reason

وَاِنَّ يُوۡنُسَ لَمِنَ الۡمُرۡسَلِيۡنَؕ‏

And indeed, Jonah was among the messengers

اِذۡ اَبَقَ اِلَي الۡفُلۡكِ الۡمَشۡحُوۡنِۙ‏

[Mention] when he ran away to the laden ship

فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الۡمُدۡحَضِيۡنَۚ‏

And he drew lots and was among the losers

فَالۡتَقَمَهُ الۡحُوۡتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيۡمٌ

Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy

فَلَوۡلَا٘ اَنَّهٗ كَانَ مِنَ الۡمُسَبِّحِيۡنَۙ‏

And had he not been of those who exalt Allah

لَلَبِثَ فِيۡ بَطۡنِهٖ٘ اِلٰي يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُوۡنَۚ‏

He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected

فَنَبَذۡنٰهُ بِالۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيۡمٌۚ‏

But We threw him onto the open shore while he was ill

وَاَنۭۡ بَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةً مِّنۡ يَّقۡطِيۡنٍۚ‏

And We caused to grow over him a gourd vine

وَاَرۡسَلۡنٰهُ اِلٰي مِائَةِ اَلۡفٍ اَوۡ يَزِيۡدُوۡنَۚ‏

And We sent him to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more

فَاٰمَنُوۡا فَمَتَّعۡنٰهُمۡ اِلٰي حِيۡنٍؕ‏

And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time

فَاسۡتَفۡتِهِمۡ اَلِرَبِّكَ الۡبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ الۡبَنُوۡنَۙ‏

So inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons

اَمۡ خَلَقۡنَا الۡمَلٰٓئِكَةَ اِنَاثًا وَّهُمۡ شٰهِدُوۡنَ

Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses

اَلَا٘ اِنَّهُمۡ مِّنۡ اِفۡكِهِمۡ لَيَقُوۡلُوۡنَۙ‏

Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say

وَلَدَ اللّٰهُۙ وَاِنَّهُمۡ لَكٰذِبُوۡنَ

Allah has begotten," and indeed, they are liars

اَصۡطَفَي الۡبَنَاتِ عَلَي الۡبَنِيۡنَؕ‏

Has He chosen daughters over sons
