Perhaps
يَوَدُّ
will wish
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieved
لَوۡ
if
كَانُواۡ
they had been
مُسۡلِمِينَ
Muslims
٢
Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish1 that they had been Muslims.
15:3
ذَرۡهُمۡ
Leave them
يَأۡكُلُواۡ
(to) eat
وَيَتَمَتَّعُواۡ
and enjoy
وَيُلۡهِهِمُ
and diverted them

the hope
فَسَوۡفَ
then soon
يَعۡلَمُونَ
they will come to know
٣
Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know.
15:4
وَمَآ
And not
أَهۡلَكۡنَا
We destroyed
مِن
any
قَرۡيَةٍ
town
إِلَّا
but
وَلَهَا
(there was) for it
كِتَابٌ
a decree
مَّعۡلُومٌ
known
٤
And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree.

مِنۡ
any
أُمَّةٍ
nation
أَجَلَهَا
its term
وَمَا
and not
يَسۡتَــٔۡخِرُونَ
(can) delay it
٥
No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter.
15:6
وَقَالُواۡ
And they say
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا
O you
ٱلَّذِى
(to) whom
نُزِّلَ
has been sent down
عَلَيۡهِ
[on him]
ٱلذِّكۡرُ
the Reminder
إِنَّكَ
indeed, you
لَمَجۡنُونٌ
(are) surely mad
٦
And they say, "O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad.1
15:7
لَّوۡ
Why
مَا
not
تَأۡتِينَا
you bring to us
بِٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ
the Angels
إِن
if
كُنتَ
you are
مِنَ
of
ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ
the truthful
٧
Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful?"
15:8
مَا
Not
نُنَزِّلُ
We send down
ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ
the Angels
إِلَّا
except
بِٱلۡحَقِّ
with the truth
وَمَا
and not
كَانُوٓاۡ
they would be
إِذًا
then
مُّنظَرِينَ
given respite
٨
We do not send down the angels except with truth;1 and they [i.e., the disbelievers] would not then be reprieved.
15:9
إِنَّا
Indeed, We
نَحۡنُ
We
نَزَّلۡنَا
have sent down
ٱلذِّكۡرَ
the Reminder
وَإِنَّا
and indeed, We
لَهُۥ
of it
لَحَـٰفِظُونَ
(are) surely Guardians
٩
Indeed, it is We who sent down the message [i.e., the Qur’ān], and indeed, We will be its guardian.
15:10
وَلَقَدۡ
And certainly
أَرۡسَلۡنَا
We (had) sent
مِن
before you
قَبۡلِكَ
before you
فِى
in
شِيَعِ
the sects
ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
(of) the former (people)
١٠
And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muḥammad], among the sects of the former peoples.
15:11
وَمَا
And not
يَأۡتِيهِم
came to them
مِّن
any
رَّسُولٍ
Messenger
إِلَّا
but
كَانُواۡ
they did
بِهِۦ
at him
يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ
mock
١١
And no messenger would come to them except that they ridiculed him.
15:12
كَذٰلِكَ
Thus
نَسۡلُكُهُۥ
We let it enter
فِى
in
قُلُوبِ
(the) hearts
ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ
(of) the criminals
١٢
Thus do We insert it [i.e., denial] into the hearts of the criminals.
15:13
لَا
Not
يُؤۡمِنُونَ
they believe
بِهِۦ‌ۖ
in it
وَقَدۡ
and verily
خَلَتۡ
have passed
سُنَّةُ
the way(s)
ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
(of) the former (people)
١٣
They will not believe in it, while there has already occurred the precedent of the former peoples.
15:14
وَلَوۡ
And (even) if
فَتَحۡنَا
We opened
عَلَيۡهِم
to them
بَابًا
a gate
مِّنَ
from
ٱلسَّمَآءِ
the heaven
فَظَلُّواۡ
and they were to continue
فِيهِ
therein
يَعۡرُجُونَ
(to) ascend
١٤
And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend,
15:15
لَقَالُوٓاۡ
They would surely say
إِنَّمَا
Only
سُكِّرَتۡ
have been dazzled
أَبۡصَـٰرُنَا
our eyes
بَلۡ
Nay
نَحۡنُ
we
قَوۡمٌ
(are) a people
مَّسۡحُورُونَ
bewitched
١٥
They would say, "Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic."
15:16
وَلَقَدۡ
And verily
جَعَلۡنَا
We have placed
فِى
in
ٱلسَّمَآءِ
the heavens
بُرُوجًا
constellations
وَزَيَّنَّـٰهَا
and We have beautified it
لِلنَّـٰظِرِينَ
for the observers
١٦
And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers.
15:17
وَحَفِظۡنَـٰهَا
And We have protected it
مِن
from
كُلِّ
every
شَيۡطَـٰنٍ
devil
رَّجِيمٍ
accursed
١٧
And We have protected it from every devil expelled [from the mercy of Allāh]
15:18
إِلَّا
Except
مَنِ
(one) who
ٱسۡتَرَقَ
steals
ٱلسَّمۡعَ
the hearing
فَأَتۡبَعَهُۥ
then follows him
شِهَابٌ
a burning flame
مُّبِينٌ
clear
١٨
Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame.
15:19
وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ
And the earth
مَدَدۡنَـٰهَا
We have spread it
وَأَلۡقَيۡنَا
and [We] cast
فِيهَا
therein
رَوٰسِىَ
firm mountains
وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا
and [We] caused to grow
فِيهَا
therein
مِن
of
كُلِّ
every
شَىۡءٍ
thing
مَّوۡزُونٍ
well-balanced
١٩
And the earth - We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well-balanced thing.
15:20
وَجَعَلۡنَا
And We have made
لَكُمۡ
for you
فِيهَا
therein
مَعَـٰيِشَ
means of living
وَمَن
and whom
لَّسۡتُمۡ
you are not
لَهُۥ
for him
بِرٰزِقِينَ
providers
٢٠
And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers.1
15:21
وَإِن
And not
مِّن
(is) any
شَىۡءٍ
thing
إِلَّا
but
عِندَنَا
with Us
خَزَآئِنُهُۥ
(are) its treasures
وَمَا
and not
نُنَزِّلُهُۥٓ
We send it down
إِلَّا
except
بِقَدَرٍ
in a measure
مَّعۡلُومٍ
known
٢١
And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known [i.e., specified] measure.
15:22
وَأَرۡسَلۡنَا
And We have sent
ٱلرِّيَـٰحَ
the winds
لَوٰقِحَ
fertilizing
فَأَنزَلۡنَا
and We sent down
مِنَ
from
ٱلسَّمَآءِ
the sky
مَآءً
water
فَأَسۡقَيۡنَـٰكُمُوهُ
and We gave it to you to drink
وَمَآ
And not
أَنتُمۡ
you
لَهُۥ
of it
بِخَـٰزِنِينَ
(are) retainers
٢٢
And We have sent the fertilizing winds1 and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers.
15:23
وَإِنَّا
And indeed, We
لَنَحۡنُ
surely [We]
نُحۡىِۦ
We give life
وَنُمِيتُ
and We cause death
وَنَحۡنُ
and We
ٱلۡوٰرِثُونَ
(are) the Inheritors
٢٣
And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor.1
15:24
وَلَقَدۡ
And verily
عَلِمۡنَا
We know
ٱلۡمُسۡتَقۡدِمِينَ
the preceding ones
مِنكُمۡ
among you
وَلَقَدۡ
and verily
عَلِمۡنَا
We know
ٱلۡمُسۡتَــٔۡخِرِينَ
the later ones
٢٤
And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come].
15:25
وَإِنَّ
And indeed
رَبَّكَ
your Lord
هُوَ
He
يَحۡشُرُهُمۡ‌ۚ
will gather them
إِنَّهُۥ
Indeed, He
حَكِيمٌ
(is) All-Wise
عَلِيمٌ
All-Knowing
٢٥
And indeed, your Lord will gather them; indeed, He is Wise and Knowing.
15:26
وَلَقَدۡ
And verily
خَلَقۡنَا
We created
ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ
humankind
مِن
(out) of
صَلۡصَـٰلٍ
sounding clay
مِّنۡ
from
حَمَإٍ
black mud
مَّسۡنُونٍ
altered
٢٦
And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.
15:27
وَٱلۡجَآنَّ
And the jinn
خَلَقۡنَـٰهُ
We created it
مِن
before
قَبۡلُ
before
مِن
from
نَّارِ
fire
ٱلسَّمُومِ
scorching
٢٧
And the jinn We created before from scorching fire.
15:28
وَإِذۡ
And when
قَالَ
your Lord said
رَبُّكَ
your Lord said
لِلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ
to the Angels
إِنِّى
Indeed, I
خَـٰلِقُۢ
(will) create
بَشَرًا
a human being
مِّن
(out) of
صَلۡصَـٰلٍ
clay
مِّنۡ
from
حَمَإٍ
black mud
مَّسۡنُونٍ
altered
٢٨
And [mention, O Muḥammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud.
15:29
فَإِذَا
So, when
سَوَّيۡتُهُۥ
I have fashioned him
وَنَفَخۡتُ
and [I] breathed
فِيهِ
into him
مِن
of
رُّوحِى
My spirit
فَقَعُواۡ
then fall down
لَهُۥ
to him
سَـٰجِدِينَ
prostrating
٢٩
And when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul,1 then fall down to him in prostration."
15:30
فَسَجَدَ
So prostrated
ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ
the Angels
كُلُّهُمۡ
all of them
أَجۡمَعُونَ
together
٣٠
So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely,
15:31
إِلَّآ
Except
إِبۡلِيسَ
Iblis
أَبَىٰٓ
He refused
أَن
to
يَكُونَ
be
مَعَ
with
ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ
those who prostrated
٣١
Except Iblees;1 he refused to be with those who prostrated.
15:32
قَالَ
He said
يَـٰٓإِبۡلِيسُ
O Iblis
مَا
What
لَكَ
(is) for you
أَلَّا
that not
تَكُونَ
you are
مَعَ
with
ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ
those who prostrated
٣٢
[Allāh] said, "O Iblees, what is [the matter] with you that you are not with those who prostrate?"
15:33
قَالَ
He said
لَمۡ
I am not
أَكُن
I am not
لِّأَسۡجُدَ
(one) to prostrate
لِبَشَرٍ
to a human
خَلَقۡتَهُۥ
whom You created
مِن
(out) of
صَلۡصَـٰلٍ
clay
مِّنۡ
from
حَمَإٍ
black mud
مَّسۡنُونٍ
altered
٣٣
He said, "Never would I prostrate to a human whom You created out of clay from an altered black mud."
15:34
قَالَ
He said
فَٱخۡرُجۡ
Then get out
مِنۡهَا
of it
فَإِنَّكَ
for indeed, you
رَجِيمٌ
(are) expelled
٣٤
[Allāh] said, "Then depart from it,1 for indeed, you are expelled.
15:35
وَإِنَّ
And indeed
عَلَيۡكَ
upon you
ٱللَّعۡنَةَ
(will be) the curse
إِلَىٰ
till
يَوۡمِ
(the) Day
ٱلدِّينِ
(of) [the] Judgment
٣٥
And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Recompense."
15:36
قَالَ
He said
رَبِّ
O my Lord
فَأَنظِرۡنِىٓ
Then give me respite
إِلَىٰ
till
يَوۡمِ
(the) Day
يُبۡعَثُونَ
they are raised
٣٦
He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."
15:37
قَالَ
He said
فَإِنَّكَ
Then indeed you
مِنَ
(are) of
ٱلۡمُنظَرِينَ
the ones given respite
٣٧
[Allāh] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved
15:38
إِلَىٰ
Till
يَوۡمِ
the Day
ٱلۡوَقۡتِ
(of) the time
ٱلۡمَعۡلُومِ
well-known
٣٨
Until the Day of the time well-known."
15:39
قَالَ
He said
رَبِّ
My Lord
بِمَآ
Because
أَغۡوَيۡتَنِى
You misled me
لَأُزَيِّنَنَّ
surely, I will make (evil) fair-seeming
لَهُمۡ
to them
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
the earth
وَلَأُغۡوِيَنَّهُمۡ
and I will mislead them
أَجۡمَعِينَ
all
٣٩
[Iblees] said, "My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them [i.e., mankind] on earth, and I will mislead them all
15:40
إِلَّا
Except
عِبَادَكَ
Your slaves
مِنۡهُمُ
among them
ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ
the ones who are sincere
٤٠
Except, among them, Your chosen servants."
15:41
قَالَ
He said
هَـٰذَا
This
صِرٰطٌ
(is) the way
عَلَىَّ
to Me
مُسۡتَقِيمٌ
straight
٤١
[Allāh] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight.
15:42
إِنَّ
Indeed
عِبَادِى
My slaves
لَيۡسَ
not
لَكَ
you have
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
over them
سُلۡطَـٰنٌ
any authority
إِلَّا
except
مَنِ
those who
ٱتَّبَعَكَ
follow you
مِنَ
of
ٱلۡغَاوِينَ
the ones who go astray
٤٢
Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators.
15:43
وَإِنَّ
And indeed
جَهَنَّمَ
Hell
لَمَوۡعِدُهُمۡ
(is) surely the promised place for them
أَجۡمَعِينَ
all
٤٣
And indeed, Hell is the promised place for them all.
15:44
لَهَا
For it
سَبۡعَةُ
(are) seven
أَبۡوٰبٍ
gates
لِّكُلِّ
for each
بَابٍ
gate
مِّنۡهُمۡ
among them
جُزۡءٌ
(is) a portion
مَّقۡسُومٌ
assigned
٤٤
It has seven gates; for every gate is of them [i.e., Satan's followers] a portion designated."
15:45
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ
the righteous
فِى
(will be) in
جَنَّـٰتٍ
Gardens
وَعُيُونٍ
and water springs
٤٥
Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs,
15:46
ٱدۡخُلُوهَا
Enter it
بِسَلَـٰمٍ
in peace
ءَامِنِينَ
secure
٤٦
[Having been told], "Enter it in peace, safe [and secure]."
15:47
وَنَزَعۡنَا
And We (will) remove
مَا
what
فِى
(is) in
صُدُورِهِم
their breasts
مِّنۡ
of
غِلٍّ
rancor
إِخۡوٰنًا
(they will be) brothers
عَلَىٰ
on
سُرُرٍ
thrones
مُّتَقَـٰبِلِينَ
facing each other
٤٧
And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment,1 [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other.
15:48
لَا
Not
يَمَسُّهُمۡ
will touch them
فِيهَا
therein
نَصَبٌ
fatigue
وَمَا
and not
هُم
they
مِّنۡهَا
from it
بِمُخۡرَجِينَ
will be removed
٤٨
No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.
15:49

Inform

When
دَخَلُواۡ
they entered
عَلَيۡهِ
upon him

Peace

Indeed, we
مِنكُمۡ
(are) of you
وَجِلُونَ
afraid
٥٢
When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful [i.e., apprehensive] of you."

قَالُواۡ
They said
لَا
(Do) not
تَوۡجَلۡ
be afraid
إِنَّا
indeed, we
نُبَشِّرُكَ
[we] bring glad tidings to you
بِغُلَـٰمٍ
of a boy
عَلِيمٍ
learned
٥٣
[The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy."
15:54
قَالَ
He said
أَبَشَّرۡتُمُونِى
Do you give me glad tidings
عَلَىٰٓ
Do you give me glad tidings
أَن
although
مَّسَّنِىَ
has overtaken me
ٱلۡكِبَرُ
old age
فَبِمَ
Then about what
تُبَشِّرُونَ
you give glad tidings
٥٤
He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform?"
15:55
قَالُواۡ
They said
بَشَّرۡنَـٰكَ
We give you glad tidings
بِٱلۡحَقِّ
in truth
فَلَا
so (do) not
تَكُن
be
مِّنَ
of
ٱلۡقَـٰنِطِينَ
the despairing
٥٥
They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing."
15:56
قَالَ
He said
وَمَن
And who
يَقۡنَطُ
despairs
مِن

(the) Mercy
رَبِّهِۦٓ
(of) his Lord
إِلَّا
except
ٱلضَّآلُّونَ
those who are astray
٥٦
He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray?"
15:57

He said
فَمَا
Then what
خَطۡبُكُمۡ
(is) your business
أَيُّهَا
O messengers
ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ
O messengers
٥٧
[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"
15:58
قَالُوٓاۡ
They said

a people
مُّجۡرِمِينَ

We have decreed
إِنَّهَا
that she
لَمِنَ
(is) surely of
ٱلۡغَـٰبِرِينَ
those who remain behind
٦٠
Except his wife." We [i.e., Allāh] decreed that she is of those who remain behind.1
15:61
فَلَمَّا
And when
جَآءَ
came
ءَالَ
(to the) family
لُوطٍ
(of) Lut
ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ
the messengers
٦١
And when the messengers came to the family of Lot,

Indeed, you
قَوۡمٌ
(are) a people
مُّنكَرُونَ
unknown
٦٢
He said, "Indeed, you are people unknown."
15:63
قَالُواۡ
They said
بَلۡ
Nay
جِئۡنَـٰكَ
we have come to you
بِمَا
with what
كَانُواۡ
they were
فِيهِ
in it
يَمۡتَرُونَ
disputing
٦٣
They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing,
15:64
وَأَتَيۡنَـٰكَ
And we have come to you
بِٱلۡحَقِّ
with the truth
وَإِنَّا
and indeed, we
لَصَـٰدِقُونَ
