لَكُمۡ
(is) for you
لَا
(that) not
تُؤۡمِنُونَ
you believe
بِٱللَّهِ‌ۙ
in Allah
وَٱلرَّسُولُ
while the Messenger
يَدۡعُوكُمۡ
calls you
لِتُؤۡمِنُواۡ
that you believe
بِرَبِّكُمۡ
in your Lord
وَقَدۡ
and indeed
أَخَذَ
He has taken
مِيثَـٰقَكُمۡ
your covenant
إِن
if
كُنتُم
you are
مُّؤۡمِنِينَ
believers
٨
And why do you not believe in Allāh while the Messenger invites you to believe in your Lord and He has taken your covenant, if you should [truly] be believers?
57:9
هُوَ
He
ٱلَّذِى
(is) the One Who

the darkness[es]
إِلَى
into
ٱلنُّورِ‌ۚ
the light

And what
لَكُمۡ
(is) for you
أَلَّا
that not
تُنفِقُواۡ
you spend
فِى
in
سَبِيلِ
(the) way
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
وَلِلَّهِ
while for Allah
مِيرٰثُ
(is the) heritage
ٱلسَّمَـٰوٰتِ
(of) the heavens
وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ‌ۚ
and the earth
لَا
Not
يَسۡتَوِى
are equal
مِنكُم
among you
مَّنۡ
(those) who
أَنفَقَ
spent
مِن
before
قَبۡلِ
before
ٱلۡفَتۡحِ
the victory
وَقَـٰتَلَ‌ۚ
and fought
أُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
Those
أَعۡظَمُ

وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
بِمَا
of what
تَعۡمَلُونَ
you do
خَبِيرٌ
(is) All-Aware
١٠
And why do you not spend in the cause of Allāh while to Allāh belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth? Not equal among you are those who spent before the conquest [of Makkah] and fought [and those who did so after it]. Those are greater in degree than they who spent afterwards and fought. But to all Allāh has promised the best [reward]. And Allāh, of what you do, is Aware.
57:11
مَّن
Who (is)
ذَا
the one who
ٱلَّذِى
the one who
يُقۡرِضُ
will loan
ٱللَّهَ
(to) Allah
قَرۡضًا
a loan
حَسَنًا
goodly
فَيُضَـٰعِفَهُۥ
so He will multiply it
لَهُۥ
for him
وَلَهُۥٓ
and for him
أَجۡرٌ
(is) a reward
كَرِيمٌ
noble
١١
Who is it that would loan Allāh a goodly loan so He will multiply it for him and he will have a noble reward?

ذٰلِكَ
That

On the Day you see the believing men and believing women, their light proceeding before them and on their right, [it will be said], "Your good tidings today are [of] gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein you will abide eternally." That is what is the great attainment.
57:13
يَوۡمَ
(On the) Day
يَقُولُ
will say
ٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقُونَ
the hypocrite men
وَٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقَـٰتُ
and the hypocrite women
لِلَّذِينَ
to those who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believed
ٱنظُرُونَا
Wait for us
نَقۡتَبِسۡ
we may acquire
مِن
of
نُّورِكُمۡ
your light
قِيلَ
It will be said
ٱرۡجِعُواۡ
Go back
وَرَآءَكُمۡ
behind you
فَٱلۡتَمِسُواۡ
and seek
نُورًا
light
فَضُرِبَ
Then will be put up
بَيۡنَهُم
between them
بِسُورٍ
a wall
لَّهُۥ
for it
بَابُۢ
a gate
بَاطِنُهُۥ
its interior
فِيهِ
in it
ٱلرَّحۡمَةُ
(is) mercy
وَظَـٰهِرُهُۥ
but its exterior
مِن
facing towards [it]
قِبَلِهِ
facing towards [it]
ٱلۡعَذَابُ
the punishment
١٣
On the [same] Day the hypocrite men and hypocrite women will say to those who believed, "Wait for us that we may acquire some of your light." It will be said, "Go back behind you1 and seek light." And a wall will be placed between them with a door, its interior containing mercy, but on the outside of it is torment.
57:14
يُنَادُونَهُمۡ
They will call them
أَلَمۡ
Were not
نَكُن
we
مَّعَكُمۡ‌ۖ
with you
قَالُواۡ
They will say
بَلَىٰ
Yes
وَلَـٰكِنَّكُمۡ
but you
فَتَنتُمۡ
led to temptation
أَنفُسَكُمۡ
yourselves
وَتَرَبَّصۡتُمۡ
and you awaited
وَٱرۡتَبۡتُمۡ
and you doubted
وَغَرَّتۡكُمُ
and deceived you
ٱلۡأَمَانِىُّ
the wishful thinking
حَتَّىٰ
until
جَآءَ
came
أَمۡرُ
(the) Command
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
وَغَرَّكُم
And deceived you
بِٱللَّهِ
about Allah
ٱلۡغَرُورُ
the deceiver
١٤
They [i.e., the hypocrites] will call to them [i.e., the believers], "Were we not with you?" They will say, "Yes, but you afflicted yourselves1 and awaited [misfortune for us] and doubted, and wishful thinking deluded you until there came the command of Allāh. And the Deceiver [i.e., Satan] deceived you concerning Allāh.
57:15
فَٱلۡيَوۡمَ
So today
لَا
not
يُؤۡخَذُ
will be accepted
مِنكُمۡ
from you
فِدۡيَةٌ
any ransom
وَلَا
and not
مِنَ
from
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كَفَرُواۡ‌ۚ
disbelieved
مَأۡوَٮٰكُمُ
Your abode
ٱلنَّارُ‌ۖ
(is) the Fire
هِىَ
it (is)
مَوۡلَـٰكُمۡ‌ۖ
your protector
وَبِئۡسَ
and wretched is
ٱلۡمَصِيرُ
the destination
١٥
So today no ransom will be taken from you or from those who disbelieved. Your refuge is the Fire. It is most worthy of you, and wretched is the destination."
57:16
۞أَلَمۡ
Has not
يَأۡنِ
come (the) time
لِلَّذِينَ
for those who
ءَامَنُوٓاۡ
believed
أَن
that
تَخۡشَعَ
become humble
قُلُوبُهُمۡ
their hearts
لِذِكۡرِ
at (the) remembrance (of) Allah
ٱللَّهِ
at (the) remembrance (of) Allah
وَمَا
and what
نَزَلَ
has come down
مِنَ
of
ٱلۡحَقِّ
the truth
وَلَا
And not
يَكُونُواۡ
they become
كَٱلَّذِينَ
like those who
أُوتُواۡ
were given
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Book
مِن
before
قَبۡلُ
before
فَطَالَ
(and) was prolonged
عَلَيۡهِمُ
for them
ٱلۡأَمَدُ
the term
فَقَسَتۡ
so hardened
قُلُوبُهُمۡ‌ۖ
their hearts
وَكَثِيرٌ
and many
مِّنۡهُمۡ
of them
فَـٰسِقُونَ
(are) defiantly disobedient
١٦
Has the time not come for those who have believed that their hearts should become humbly submissive at the remembrance of Allāh and what has come down of the truth? And let them not be like those who were given the Scripture before, and a long period passed over them, so their hearts hardened; and many of them are defiantly disobedient.
57:17
ٱعۡلَمُوٓاۡ
Know
أَنَّ
that
ٱللَّهَ
Allah

its death
قَدۡ
Indeed

We have made clear
لَكُمُ
to you
ٱلۡأَيَـٰتِ
the Signs
لَعَلَّكُمۡ
so that you may
تَعۡقِلُونَ
understand
١٧
Know that Allāh gives life to the earth after its lifelessness. We have made clear to you the signs; perhaps you will understand.1
57:18
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلۡمُصَّدِّقِينَ
the men who give charity
وَٱلۡمُصَّدِّقَـٰتِ
and the women who give charity
وَأَقۡرَضُواۡ
and who lend
ٱللَّهَ
(to) Allah
قَرۡضًا
a loan
حَسَنًا
goodly
يُضَـٰعَفُ
it will be multiplied
لَهُمۡ
for them
وَلَهُمۡ
and for them
أَجۡرٌ
(is) a reward
كَرِيمٌ
noble
١٨
Indeed, the men who practice charity and the women who practice charity and [they who] have loaned Allāh a goodly loan - it will be multiplied for them, and they will have a noble reward.
57:19
وَٱلَّذِينَ
And those who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe
بِٱللَّهِ
in Allah
وَرُسُلِهِۦٓ
and His Messengers
أُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
[those]
هُمُ
they
ٱلصِّدِّيقُونَ‌ۖ
(are) the truthful
وَٱلشُّهَدَآءُ
and the martyrs

(are) with
رَبِّهِمۡ
their Lord
لَهُمۡ
For them
أَجۡرُهُمۡ
(is) their reward
وَنُورُهُمۡ‌ۖ
and their light
وَٱلَّذِينَ
But those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieve
وَكَذَّبُواۡ
and deny
بِـَٔـايَـٰتِنَآ
Our Verses
أُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
those
أَصۡحَـٰبُ
(are the) companions
ٱلۡجَحِيمِ
(of) the Hellfire
١٩
And those who have believed in Allāh and His messengers - those are [in the ranks of] the supporters of truth and the martyrs, with their Lord. For them is their reward and their light.1 But those who have disbelieved and denied Our verses - those are the companions of Hellfire.
57:20
ٱعۡلَمُوٓاۡ
Know
أَنَّمَا
that
ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ
the life
ٱلدُّنۡيَا
(of) the world
لَعِبٌ
(is) play
وَلَهۡوٌ
and amusement
وَزِينَةٌ
and adornment
وَتَفَاخُرُۢ
and boasting
بَيۡنَكُمۡ
among you
وَتَكَاثُرٌ
and competition in increase
فِى
of
ٱلۡأَمۡوٰلِ
the wealth
وَٱلۡأَوۡلَـٰدِ‌ۖ
and the children
كَمَثَلِ
like (the) example
غَيۡثٍ
(of) a rain
أَعۡجَبَ
pleases
ٱلۡكُفَّارَ
the tillers
نَبَاتُهُۥ
its growth
ثُمَّ
then
يَهِيجُ
it dries
فَتَرَٮٰهُ
and you see it
مُصۡفَرًّا
turning yellow
ثُمَّ
then
يَكُونُ
becomes
حُطَـٰمًا‌ۖ
debris
وَفِى
And in
ٱلۡأَخِرَةِ
the Hereafter
عَذَابٌ
(is) a punishment
شَدِيدٌ
severe
وَمَغۡفِرَةٌ
and forgiveness
مِّنَ
from
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَرِضۡوٰنٌ‌ۚ
and Pleasure
وَمَا
But not
ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ
(is) the life
ٱلدُّنۡيَآ
(of) the world
إِلَّا
except
مَتَـٰعُ
(the) enjoyment
ٱلۡغُرُورِ
(of) delusion
٢٠
Know that the life of this world is but amusement and diversion and adornment and boasting to one another and competition in increase of wealth and children - like the example of a rain whose [resulting] plant growth pleases the tillers; then it dries and you see it turned yellow; then it becomes [scattered] debris. And in the Hereafter is severe punishment and forgiveness from Allāh and approval. And what is the worldly life except the enjoyment of delusion.
57:21
سَابِقُوٓاۡ
Race

to
مَغۡفِرَةٍ

(of) the heaven
وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ
and the earth
أُعِدَّتۡ
prepared
لِلَّذِينَ
for those who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe

That
فَضۡلُ

وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
ذُو

ٱلۡفَضۡلِ
(is) the Possessor of Bounty
ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
the Great
٢١
Race [i.e., compete] toward forgiveness from your Lord and a Garden whose width is like the width of the heavens and earth, prepared for those who believed in Allāh and His messengers. That is the bounty of Allāh which He gives to whom He wills, and Allāh is the possessor of great bounty.
57:22
مَآ
Not
أَصَابَ

مِن
any
مُّصِيبَةٍ
disaster
فِى

٢٢
No disaster strikes upon the earth or among yourselves except that it is in a register1 before We bring it into being - indeed that, for Allāh, is easy -
57:23
لِّكَيۡلَا
So that you may not
تَأۡسَوۡاۡ
grieve
عَلَىٰ
over
مَا
what
فَاتَكُمۡ
has escaped you
وَلَا
and (do) not
تَفۡرَحُواۡ
exult
بِمَآ
at what
ءَاتَـٰكُمۡ‌ۗ
He has given you
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
لَا
(does) not
يُحِبُّ
love
كُلَّ
every
مُخۡتَالٍ
self-deluded
فَخُورٍ
boaster
٢٣
In order that you not despair over what has eluded you and not exult [in pride] over what He has given you. And Allāh does not like everyone self-deluded and boastful -
57:24
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who
يَبۡخَلُونَ
are stingy
وَيَأۡمُرُونَ
and enjoin
ٱلنَّاسَ
(on) the people
بِٱلۡبُخۡلِ‌ۗ
stinginess
وَمَن
And whoever
يَتَوَلَّ
turns away
فَإِنَّ
then indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
هُوَ
He
ٱلۡغَنِىُّ
(is) Free of need
ٱلۡحَمِيدُ
the Praiseworthy
٢٤
[Those] who are stingy and enjoin upon people stinginess. And whoever turns away1 - then indeed, Allāh is the Free of need, the Praiseworthy.

We have already sent Our messengers with clear evidences and sent down with them the Scripture and the balance that the people may maintain [their affairs] in justice. And We sent down iron, wherein is great military might and benefits for the people, and so that Allāh may make evident those who support Him and His messengers unseen.

Nuh
وَإِبۡرٰهِيمَ
and Ibrahim
وَجَعَلۡنَا
and We placed
فِى
in
ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا
their offspring
ٱلنُّبُوَّةَ
Prophethood
وَٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ‌ۖ
and the Scripture
فَمِنۡهُم
and among them
مُّهۡتَدٍ‌ۖ
(is) a guided one
وَكَثِيرٌ
but most
مِّنۡهُمۡ
of them
فَـٰسِقُونَ
(are) defiantly disobediently
٢٦
And We have already sent Noah and Abraham and placed in their descendants prophethood and scripture; and among them is he who is guided, but many of them are defiantly disobedient.
57:27
ثُمَّ
Then
قَفَّيۡنَا
We sent
عَلَىٰٓ
on
ءَاثَـٰرِهِم
their footsteps
بِرُسُلِنَا
Our Messengers
وَقَفَّيۡنَا
and We followed
بِعِيسَى
with Isa
ٱبۡنِ
son
مَرۡيَمَ
(of) Maryam
وَءَاتَيۡنَـٰهُ
and We gave him
ٱلۡإِنجِيلَ
the Injeel
وَجَعَلۡنَا
And We placed
فِى
in
قُلُوبِ
(the) hearts
ٱلَّذِينَ
(of) those who
ٱتَّبَعُوهُ
followed him
رَأۡفَةً
compassion
وَرَحۡمَةً
and mercy
وَرَهۡبَانِيَّةً
But monasticism
ٱبۡتَدَعُوهَا
they innovated
مَا
not
كَتَبۡنَـٰهَا
We prescribed it
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
for them
إِلَّا
only
ٱبۡتِغَآءَ
seeking
رِضۡوٰنِ
(the) pleasure
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
فَمَا
but not
رَعَوۡهَا
they observed it
حَقَّ
(with) right
رِعَايَتِهَا‌ۖ
observance
فَـَٔـاتَيۡنَا
So We gave
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believed
مِنۡهُمۡ
among them
أَجۡرَهُمۡ‌ۖ
their reward
وَكَثِيرٌ
but most
مِّنۡهُمۡ
of them
فَـٰسِقُونَ
(are) defiantly disobediently
٢٧
Then We sent following their footsteps [i.e., traditions] Our messengers and followed [them] with Jesus, the son of Mary, and gave him the Gospel. And We placed in the hearts of those who followed him compassion and mercy and monasticism, which they innovated; We did not prescribe it for them except [that they did so] seeking the approval of Allāh. But they did not observe it with due observance. So We gave the ones who believed among them their reward, but many of them are defiantly disobedient.
57:28
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا
O you who believe
ٱلَّذِينَ
O you who believe
ءَامَنُواۡ
O you who believe
ٱتَّقُواۡ
Fear
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
وَءَامِنُواۡ
and believe
بِرَسُولِهِۦ
in His Messenger
يُؤۡتِكُمۡ
He will give you
كِفۡلَيۡنِ
double portion
مِن
of
رَّحۡمَتِهِۦ
His Mercy
وَيَجۡعَل
and He will make
لَّكُمۡ
for you
نُورًا
a light
تَمۡشُونَ
you will walk
بِهِۦ
with it
وَيَغۡفِرۡ
and He will forgive
لَكُمۡ‌ۚ
you
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
غَفُورٌ
(is) Oft-Forgiving
رَّحِيمٌ
Most Merciful
٢٨
O you who have believed, fear Allāh and believe in His Messenger; He will [then] give you a double portion of His mercy and make for you a light by which you will walk and forgive you; and Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
57:29
لِّئَلَّا
So that
يَعۡلَمَ
may know
أَهۡلُ
(the) People
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ
(of) the Book
أَلَّا
that not
يَقۡدِرُونَ
they have power
عَلَىٰ
over
شَىۡءٍ
anything
مِّن
from
فَضۡلِ
(the) Bounty
ٱللَّهِ‌ۙ
(of) Allah
وَأَنَّ
and that
ٱلۡفَضۡلَ
the Bounty
بِيَدِ
(is) in Allah's Hand
ٱللَّهِ
(is) in Allah's Hand
يُؤۡتِيهِ
He gives it
مَن
whom
يَشَآءُ‌ۚ
He wills
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
ذُو
(is) the Possessor of Bounty
ٱلۡفَضۡلِ
(is) the Possessor of Bounty
ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
the Great
٢٩
[This is] so that the People of the Scripture may know that they are not able [to obtain] anything from the bounty of Allāh1 and that [all] bounty is in the hand2 of Allāh; He gives it to whom He wills. And Allāh is the possessor of great bounty.
