26. THE
POETS ( Al – Shu’ara )
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
1. Taa Siin Miim.
2. Those are the signs of the book that makes clear.
3. You will perhaps kill yourself with grief because they do not
believe.
4. If We will, We can send down on them a sign from the sky, so that
their necks would remain bowed down before it.
5. And there does not come to them any new reminder from the
Beneficent (Allah) but they turn away from it.
6. So they have denied (it), therefore the news of that which they
mock at, will come to them.
7. Did they not see towards the earth how many beneficial (things)
of every kind have We caused to grow in it?
8. There is certainly a sign in that but the majority of them does
not believe.
9. And your Fosterer ! He is certainly the Mighty, the
Merciful. ( R l )
10. And when your Fosterer called out to Musa, that, "Go to the
unjust people,
11. people of Firawn. Will they not guard (against evil)?"
12. He said, "My Fosterer! I fear that they will deny me,
13. further, my bosom straitens and my language is not fluent, so
send for Harun (to help me).
14. And they have (the charge of) a crime against me so I fear that
they will kill me."
15. He said, "By no means, so both of you go with Our signs, We
are with you, Hearing.
16. So go to Firawn then say: We are sent (by) the Fosterer of the
worlds (with a message)
17. that you should send the children of Israel with us."
18. He (Firawn) said, "Were you not fostered among us as a
child? And you did stay among us for many years of your life,
19. and you did that deed of yours which you did and you are of the
ungrateful ones."
20. He said, "I did it then, when I was of those in error,
21. so I fled from you when I feared you, but my Fosterer granted me
wisdom and made me one of the messengers.
22. Now (should) that favour with which you favoured me (become the
cause) for your enslaving the children of Isreal?”
23. Firawn said, "And who is the Fosterer of the worlds?"
24. He said, "The Fosterer of the skies and the earth and that
which is between them, if you (want) to be of those who are certain."
25. He said to those around him, "Do you not hear?"
26. He said, "Your Fosterer and the Fosterer of your ancient
fathers."
27. He said, "Your messenger who has been sent to you is
certainly possessed by jinn."
28. He said, "Fosterer of the east and the west and that which
is between them, if you have sense."
29. He said, "If you take a god other than me I will definitely
place you among the prisoners."
30. He said, "Even if I bring to you something as a clear
proof?"
31. He said, "Then bring it, if you are of the truthful
ones."
32. So he threw down his staff when it became a clear serpent,
33. and he drew out his hand when it became white for those who were
seeing. ( R2 )
34.
He (Firawn) said to the leaders (of his community) around him, "This is
certainly a learned magician,
35. he intends to drive you out from your land by his magic, so what
do you advise?"
36. They said, "Keep him and his brother (waiting) in hope and
send into the cities (your officials) who gather (people)
37. (so that) they should bring to you every learned magician."
38. So the magicians were gathered at the appointed time on a known
day.
39. And it was said to the people, "Will you gather,
40. so that we may follow the magicians if they are the
winners?"
41. So when the magicians came, they said to Firawn, "Is there
a sure reward for us if we are the winners?"
42. He said, "Yes, then you will certainly be of those who are
near (to me)."
43. Musa said to them, "Cast down what you are going to cast
down."
44. So they cast down their ropes and their rods and said, "By
the might of Firawn we will certainly be winners."
45. Then Musa cast down his staff when it swallowed that which they
had falsely devised.
46. Consequently the magicians were thrown down prostrating.
47. They said, "We believe in the Fosterer of the worlds,
48. Fosterer of Musa and Harun."
49. He (Firawn) said, "You believe in him before I give you
permission, he is certainly your chief who taught you magic, but you will
know, I will definitely cut off your hands and your feet from opposite sides
and I will definitely crucify you all together."
50. They said, "No harm, we will return
to our Fosterer,
51. we certainly hope that our Fosterer will protectively forgive us
our faults, because we are the first of the believers." ( R3 )
52. And We communicated to Musa that,"Take away my servants by night, you will be
pursued."
53. So Firawn sent into the cities (his officials) who gathered (people)
54. (saying), "They are certainly a small party
55. and they have angered us
56. and we are an alert army."
57. Thus did We drive them out from gardens and springs
58. and treasures and an honored position.
59. Like that (it happened). And We made the children of Israel to
inherit them.
60. So they pursued them at sunrise.
61. So when the two parties saw each other, the companions of Musa
said, "We are caught."
62. He said, "By no means, My Fosterer is certainly with me, He
will guide me."
63. So We communicated to Musa that, "Strike the sea with your
staff," so it was split and each part became like a great mountain.
64. And We brought others near, there (at the same place),
65. and We delivered Musa and those with him, all together,
66. then We drowned the others.
67. In that there is certainly a sign, but the majority of them does not believe.
68. And your Fosterer, He is certainly the Mighty, the Merciful. (
R4 )
70. when he said to his father and his people, "What do you
worship?"
71. They said, "We worship idols and we will remain sticking to
them."
72. He said, "Do they listen to you when you pray to (them)
73. or benefit you or harm you?"
74. They said, "No, we found our fathers doing like that."
75. He said, "Then do you see, that which you worship,
76. you and your fathers before you?
77. For they are enemies to me except the Fosterer of the worlds,
78. Who created me, then He it is Who guides me
79. and Who feeds me and gives me to drink
80. and when I am sick, then He it is Who cures me
81. and Who will cause me to die, then give me life (again)
82. and (from) Whom I hope, that He will protectively forgive me my
mistakes on the day of judgment.
83. My Fosterer! grant me wisdom and join me with the righteous
84. and assign for me a true mention among later (generations),
85. and place me among the inheritors of the garden of bliss,
86. and protectively forgive my father, he is certainly among those
who are astray,
87. and do not disgrace me on the day they are raised (again),
88. the day on which neither wealth nor sons will benefit,
89. except him who comes to Allah with a pure heart."
90. And the garden will be brought near for those who guard (against
evil).
91. And the hell will be made manifest to the erring ones.
92. And it will be said to them, "Where are those whom you used
to worship
93. besides Allah? Can they help you or help themselves?"
94. Then they will be thrown headlong into it, they and the
misleaders
95. and the army of Iblis (devil), all together.
96. They will say while they quarrel therein,
97. "By Allah, we were certainly in clear error
98. when we considered you equal to the Fosterer of the worlds,
99. and no one has misled us except the criminals,
100. so we have no mediators
101.
and no intimate friend.
102. So if we are given (another chance to) return (to the world),
then we will certainly be of those who believe."
103. There is certainly a sign in that, but the majority of them
does not believe.
104. And your Fosterer, He is certainly the Mighty, the Merciful. (
R 5 )
105. The people of Nuh denied the messengers
106. when their brother Nuh said to them, "Will you not guard
(against evil)?
107. I am certainly a trustworthy messenger to you,
108. so fear Allah and obey me,
109. and l do not ask you for any reward for it, my reward is with
none but the Fosterer of the worlds,
110. so fear Allah and obey me."
111.
They said, "Shallwe believe in you when the worst (people) follow
you?"
112. He said, "And what knowledge do I have of what they
do?"
113. (The responsibility of taking) their
account is on none but my Fosterer, if you (could only) realize.
114. And I am not (supposed) to drive away the believers,
115. I am nothing but a plain warner."
116. They said, "If you do not desist, O Nuh! you will
definitely be of those who are stoned (to death)."
117. He said, "My Fosterer! my people have certainly denied me,
( P 18 ½ )
118. so decide between me and them (by pronouncing) a judgment, and
deliver me and those of the believers who are with me."
119. So We delivered him and those with him, in the loaded ship.
120. Then after that We drowned those who remained behind.
121. There is certainly a sign in that, but the majority of them
does not believe.
122. And your Fosterer, He is certainly the Mighty, the Merciful. (
R 6 )
123. The (people of) Aad denied the messengers
124. when their brother Hud said to them, "Will you not guard
(against evil)?
125. I am certainly a trustworthy messenger to you
126. so fear Allah and obey me,
127. and I do not ask you for any reward for it, my reward is with
none but the Fosterer of the worlds.
128. Do you build a monument on every high place, without any
purpose?
129. And you take (for dwellings) strong fortresses that perhaps you
may stay (in them for ever).
130. And when you take hold (of people), you take hold (of them) as
tyrants.
131. So fear Allah and obey me.
132. And fear Him Who helped you with that which you know,
133. He has helped you with cattle and sons
134. and gardens and springs,
135. I certainly fear for you the punishment of the great day."
136. They said, "It is equal to us whether you admonish or you do
not be of those who admonish.
137. This is nothing but a customary (warning) of the ancient,
138.
and we will not be punished."
139. Thus they denied him, therefore We destroyed them, there is
certainly a sign in that, but the majority of them does not believe.
140. And your Fosterer, He is certainly the Mighty, the Merciful. (
R7 )
141. The (people of) Samood denied the messengers
142. when their brother Saleh said to them, "Will you not guard
(against evil)?
143. I am certainly a trustworthy messenger to you
144. so fear Allah and obey me.
145. And I do not ask you for any reward for it, my reward is with
none but the Fosterer of the worlds.
146. Will you be left secure in that which is here:
147. in gardens and springs
148. and cultivations and date palms, the spathes of which break
(due to the weight of the fruit).
149. And you exultingly carve houses out of mountains,
150. so fear Allah and obey me,
151. and do not obey the command of the extravagant
152. who cause corruption in the earth and do not act aright."
153. They said, "You are only one of the bewitched,* * One under
the influence of magic.
154. you are nothing but a man like us, so bring a sign if you are
of the truthful ones."
155. He said, "This is a she-camel, for it there (is a portion
of water for) drinking and for you (a portion of water for) drinking on a
known day.
156. And do not afflict her with evil lest the punishment of a great
day seize you."
157. But they stabbed her then became regretters.
158. So the punishment seized them, there is certainly a sign in
that, but the majority of them does not believe.
159. And your Fosterer, He is certainly the Mighty, the Merciful. (R
8)
160.
The people of Lut denied the messengers
161. when their brother Lut said to them, "Will you not guard
(against evil)?
162. I am certainly a trustworthy messenger to you
163.
so fear Allah and obey me,
164. and I do not ask you for any reward for it, my reward is with none
but the Fosterer of the worlds.
165. What! of all creatures you approach males,
166. and leave those of your wives whom your Fosterer has created
for you? No, you are a transgressing people."
167. They said, "If you do not desist, O Lut! you will
definitely be of those who are driven out."
168. He said, "I am certainly of those who hate your acts.
169. My Fosterer ! deliver me and my followers from that which they
do."
170. So We delivered him and his followers all together
171. except an old woman, (who was) among those who remained behind.
172. Then We destroyed the others
173.
and We rained on them a rain, so evil was the rain of those
who were warned.
174. There is certainly a sign in that, but the majority of them
does not believe.
175. And your Fosterer, He is certainly the Mighty, the Merciful (R
9)
176. The inhabitants of the jungle denied the messengers
177. when Shuaib said to them, "Will you not guard (against
evil)?
178.
I am certainly a trustworthy messenger to you
179.
so fear Allah and obey me,
180. and I do not ask you for any reward for it, my reward is with
none but the Fosterer of the worlds.
181. Give back full measure and do not be of those who cause loss.
182. And weigh with a balance that is straight (correct),
183. and do not give less to people, the things due to them, and do
not cause disturbance in the earth being corrupt,
184. and fear Him Who created you and the ancient generations."
185. They said, "You are only one of the bewitched,
186.
and you are nothing but a man like us, and our guess about
you is that you are of those who lie.
187. Then make pieces from the sky to fall on us if you are of the
truthful ones."
188. He said, "My Fosterer knows best about what you do."
189. So they denied him therefore the punishment of the over
shadowing cloud seized them, it was certainly a punishment of a great
day.
190. There is certainly a sign in that, but the majority of them
does not believe.
191. And your Fosterer, He is certainly the Mighty, the Merciful. ( R 10)
192. And the (Quran) has certainly been sent down by the Fosterer of
the worlds,
193. the trustworthy spirit came down with it
194. on your heart that you may be (one) of the warners
195.
in plain Arabic language
196.
and it is (mentioned) in ancient scriptures (too).
197.
Is it not a sign for them that the learned (men among) the
children of Israel know it?
198.
And had We sent it down on any of the foreigners
199. and had he recited it to them, they would not have
believed in it.
200. Thus did We cause it to enter into the hearts of the criminals:
201. (that) they should not believe in it till they see the painful
punishment,
202. which will come upon them suddenly while they are not conscious,
203. then they will say, "Shall we be given time (for
amendment)?"
204.
What ! do they still seek to hasten on Our punishment?
205.
Then do you see? If We make them enjoy for years
206. then there comes to them that which they were promised.
207. (at that time), that which they were made to enjoy will not be
of any use to them.
208. And We did not destroy any town but it had its warners
209. (for) reminding, and We are not unjust.
210. And the devils have not come down with the (Quran),
211.
and it neither suits them nor are they capable (of doing it),
212. (on the contrary) they have been removed far away (even) from
hearing (it).
213. So do not pray to another (presumed) god with Allah, lest you
be of those who are punished.
214. And warn your family (consisting) of close relatives.
215. And lower your wing for him who follows you from among the
believers.
216. And if they disobey you then say, "I am certainly free of
that which you do."
217. And put your trust in the Mighty, the Merciful,
218. Who sees you when you stand
219.
and your movements among those who prostrate.
220.
He is certainly the Hearing, the Knowing.
221. Should I inform you (of those) on whom the devils come down?
222. They come down on every liar, sinner,
223.
they deliver hearsay and most of them are liars.
224.
And the poets, those in error follow them.
225. Do you not see that they wander distracted in every valley
226.
and that they say that which they do not practice,
227. except those who believe and do righteous works and remember
Allah much, and defend themselves after the injustice that is done to them?
And those who are unjust will know, to which place of turning back they will
turn back. ( R 11)
