بَلۡ
Nay
عَجِبۡتَ
you wonder
وَيَسۡخَرُونَ
while they mock
١٢

and you
دٰخِرُونَ
(will be) humiliated
١٨
Say, "Yes, and you will be [rendered] contemptible."

(are) to be questioned
٢٤
And stop them; indeed, they are to be questioned."
37:25
مَا
What
لَكُمۡ
(is) for you
لَا
(Why) not
تَنَاصَرُونَ
you help one another
٢٥
[They will be asked], "What is [wrong] with you? Why do you not help each other?"

بَعۡضُهُمۡ
some of them
عَلَىٰ
to
بَعۡضٍ
others
يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
questioning one another
٢٧
And they will approach one another asking [i.e., blaming] each other.
37:28
قَالُوٓاۡ
They will say

Indeed, you
كُنتُمۡ
[you] used (to)
تَأۡتُونَنَا
come (to) us
عَنِ
from
ٱلۡيَمِينِ
the right

They will say
بَل
Nay
لَّمۡ
not
تَكُونُواۡ
you were
مُؤۡمِنِينَ
believers
٢٩
They [i.e., the oppressors] will say, "Rather, you [yourselves] were not believers,

لَنَا
for us
عَلَيۡكُم
over you
مِّن
any
سُلۡطَـٰنِۭ‌ۖ
authority

Nay
كُنتُمۡ
you were
قَوۡمًا
a people
طَـٰغِينَ
transgressing
٣٠
And we had over you no authority, but you were a transgressing people.
37:31
فَحَقَّ
So has been proved true
عَلَيۡنَا
against us
قَوۡلُ
(the) Word
رَبِّنَآ‌ۖ
(of) our Lord
إِنَّا
indeed, we
لَذَآئِقُونَ
(will) certainly taste
٣١
So the word [i.e., decree] of our Lord has come into effect upon us; indeed, we will taste [punishment].
37:32
فَأَغۡوَيۡنَـٰكُمۡ
So we led you astray
إِنَّا
indeed, we
كُنَّا
were
غَـٰوِينَ
astray
٣٢
And we led you to deviation; indeed, we were deviators."
37:33
فَإِنَّهُمۡ
Then indeed, they

that Day
فِى
in
ٱلۡعَذَابِ
the punishment
مُشۡتَرِكُونَ
(will be) sharers
٣٣
So indeed they, that Day, will be sharing in the punishment.
37:34

Indeed, We
كَذٰلِكَ
thus
نَفۡعَلُ
We deal
بِٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ
with the criminals
٣٤
Indeed, that is how We deal with the criminals.

Indeed, they
كَانُوٓاۡ
were

إِلَـٰهَ
god

And they say
أَئِنَّا
Are we
لَتَارِكُوٓاۡ
to leave

for a poet
مَّجۡنُونِۭ
mad

and confirmed
ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
the Messengers
٣٧
Rather, he [i.e., the Prophet (ﷺ)] has come with the truth and confirmed the [previous] messengers.
37:38

the punishment
ٱلۡأَلِيمِ
painful
٣٨
Indeed, you [disbelievers] will be tasters of the painful punishment,
37:39

you will be recompensed
إِلَّا
except
مَا
what
كُنتُمۡ
you used to
تَعۡمَلُونَ
do
٣٩

(is) a mixture
مِّنۡ
of
حَمِيمٍ
boiling water

(will) surely be to
ٱلۡجَحِيمِ
the Hellfire

their footsteps
يُهۡرَعُونَ
they hastened
٧٠
So they hastened [to follow] in their footsteps.

before them
أَكۡثَرُ
most
ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
(of) the former (people)
٧١
And there had already strayed before them most of the former peoples,

We sent
فِيهِم
among them
مُّنذِرِينَ
warners
٧٢
And We had already sent among them warners.

how
كَانَ
was
عَـٰقِبَةُ
(the) end
ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ
(of) those who were warned
٧٣

and his people
مَاذَا
What is it
تَعۡبُدُونَ
you worship
٨٥
[And] when he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?
37:86
أَئِفۡكًا
Is it falsehood
ءَالِهَةً
gods
دُونَ
other than
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
تُرِيدُونَ
(that) you desire
٨٦
Is it falsehood [as] gods other than Allāh you desire?
37:87
فَمَا
Then what
ظَنُّكُم
(do) you think
بِرَبِّ
about (the) Lord
ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِينَ
(of) the worlds
٨٧
Then what is your thought about the Lord of the worlds?"
37:88
فَنَظَرَ
Then he glanced
نَظۡرَةً
a glance
فِى
at
ٱلنُّجُومِ
the stars
٨٨
And he cast a look at the stars.
37:89
فَقَالَ
And he said
إِنِّى
Indeed, I am
سَقِيمٌ
sick
٨٩
And said, "Indeed, I am [about to be] ill."
37:90
فَتَوَلَّوۡاۡ
So they turned away
عَنۡهُ
from him
مُدۡبِرِينَ
departing
٩٠
So they turned away from him, departing.
37:91
فَرَاغَ
Then he turned
إِلَىٰٓ
to
ءَالِهَتِهِمۡ
their gods
فَقَالَ
and said
أَلَا
Do not
تَأۡكُلُونَ
you eat
٩١
Then he turned to their gods and said, "Do you not eat?1
37:92
مَا
What (is)
لَكُمۡ
for you
لَا
not
تَنطِقُونَ
you speak
٩٢
What is [wrong] with you that you do not speak?".
37:93
فَرَاغَ
Then he turned
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
upon them
ضَرۡبَۢا
striking
بِٱلۡيَمِينِ
with the right hand
٩٣
And he turned upon them a blow with [his] right hand.
37:94
فَأَقۡبَلُوٓاۡ
Then they advanced
إِلَيۡهِ
towards him
يَزِفُّونَ
hastening
٩٤
Then they [i.e., the people] came toward him, hastening.
37:95
قَالَ
He said
أَتَعۡبُدُونَ
Do you worship
مَا
what
تَنۡحِتُونَ
you carve
٩٥
He said, "Do you worship that which you [yourselves] carve,
37:96
وَٱللَّهُ
While Allah
خَلَقَكُمۡ
created you
وَمَا
and what
تَعۡمَلُونَ
you make
٩٦
While Allāh created you and that which you do?"
37:97
قَالُواۡ
They said
ٱبۡنُواۡ
Build
لَهُۥ
for him
بُنۡيَـٰنًا
a structure
فَأَلۡقُوهُ
and throw him
فِى
into
ٱلۡجَحِيمِ
the blazing Fire
٩٧
They said, "Construct for him a structure [i.e., furnace] and throw him into the burning fire."
37:98
فَأَرَادُواۡ
And they intended
بِهِۦ
for him
كَيۡدًا
a plot
فَجَعَلۡنَـٰهُمُ
but We made them
ٱلۡأَسۡفَلِينَ
the lowest
٩٨
And they intended for him a plan [i.e., harm], but We made them the most debased.
37:99
وَقَالَ
And he said
إِنِّى
Indeed, I am
ذَاهِبٌ
going
إِلَىٰ
to
رَبِّى
my Lord
سَيَهۡدِينِ
He will guide me
٩٩
And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.
37:100
رَبِّ
My Lord
هَبۡ
grant
لِى
me
مِنَ
of
ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
the righteous
١٠٠
My Lord, grant me [a child] from among the righteous."
37:101
فَبَشَّرۡنَـٰهُ
So We gave him the glad tidings
بِغُلَـٰمٍ
of a boy
حَلِيمٍ
forbearing
١٠١
So We gave him good tidings of a forbearing boy.
37:102
فَلَمَّا
Then when
بَلَغَ
he reached
مَعَهُ
the (age of) working with him
ٱلسَّعۡىَ
the (age of) working with him
قَالَ
he said
يَـٰبُنَىَّ
O my son
إِنِّىٓ
Indeed, I
أَرَىٰ
have seen
فِى
in
ٱلۡمَنَامِ
the dream
أَنِّىٓ
that I am
أَذۡبَحُكَ
sacrificing you
فَٱنظُرۡ
so look
مَاذَا
what
تَرَىٰ‌ۚ
you see
قَالَ
He said
يَـٰٓأَبَتِ
O my father
ٱفۡعَلۡ
Do
مَا
what
تُؤۡمَرُ‌ۖ
you are commanded
سَتَجِدُنِىٓ
You will find me
إِن
if
شَآءَ
Allah wills
ٱللَّهُ
Allah wills
مِنَ
of
ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
the patient ones
١٠٢
And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion,1 he said, "O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think." He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allāh wills, of the steadfast."
37:103
فَلَمَّآ
Then when
أَسۡلَمَا
both of them had submitted
وَتَلَّهُۥ
and he put him down
لِلۡجَبِينِ
upon his forehead
١٠٣
And when they had both submitted1 and he put him down upon his forehead,
37:104
وَنَـٰدَيۡنَـٰهُ
And We called out to him
أَن
that
يَـٰٓإِبۡرٰهِيمُ
O Ibrahim
١٠٤
We called to him, "O Abraham,
37:105
قَدۡ
Verily
صَدَّقۡتَ
you have fulfilled
ٱلرُّءۡيَآ‌ۚ
the vision
إِنَّا
Indeed, We
كَذٰلِكَ
thus
نَجۡزِى
[We] reward
ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ
the good-doers
١٠٥
You have fulfilled the vision." Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
37:106
إِنَّ
Indeed
هَـٰذَا
this
لَهُوَ
(was) surely [it]
ٱلۡبَلَـٰٓؤُاۡ
the trial
ٱلۡمُبِينُ
clear
١٠٦
Indeed, this was the clear trial.
37:107
وَفَدَيۡنَـٰهُ
And We ransomed him
بِذِبۡحٍ
with a sacrifice
عَظِيمٍ
great
١٠٧
And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice,1
37:108
وَتَرَكۡنَا
And We left
عَلَيۡهِ
for him
فِى
among
ٱلۡأَخِرِينَ
the later generations
١٠٨
And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:
37:109
سَلَـٰمٌ
Peace be
عَلَىٰٓ
on
إِبۡرٰهِيمَ
Ibrahim
١٠٩
"Peace upon Abraham."
37:110
كَذٰلِكَ
Thus
نَجۡزِى
We reward
ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ
the good-doers
١١٠
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.
37:112
وَبَشَّرۡنَـٰهُ
And We gave him glad tidings

of Isaac
نَبِيًّا
a Prophet
مِّنَ
among
ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
the righteous
١١٢
And We gave him good tidings of Isaac, a prophet from among the righteous.1
37:113
وَبَـٰرَكۡنَا
And We blessed
عَلَيۡهِ
him
وَعَلَىٰٓ
and [on]

Isaac

to himself
مُبِينٌ
clear
١١٣
And We blessed him and Isaac. But among their descendants is the doer of good and the clearly unjust to himself [i.e., sinner].
37:114
وَلَقَدۡ
And verily
مَنَنَّا
We conferred Favor
عَلَىٰ
upon
مُوسَىٰ
Musa
وَهَـٰرُونَ
and Harun
١١٤
And We did certainly confer favor upon Moses and Aaron.
37:115
وَنَجَّيۡنَـٰهُمَا
And We saved both of them
وَقَوۡمَهُمَا
and their people
مِنَ
from
ٱلۡكَرۡبِ

ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
the great

And We helped them
فَكَانُواۡ
so they became
هُمُ
so they became
ٱلۡغَـٰلِبِينَ
the victors
١١٦
And We supported them so it was they who overcame.
37:117
وَءَاتَيۡنَـٰهُمَا
And We gave both of them
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Book
ٱلۡمُسۡتَبِينَ
the clear

And We gave them the explicit Scripture [i.e., the Torah],
37:118

And We guided both of them
ٱلصِّرٰطَ
(to) the Path
ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمَ
the Straight

ثُمَّ
Then
دَمَّرۡنَا
We destroyed

Then We destroyed the others.
37:137
وَإِنَّكُمۡ
And indeed, you

When
أَبَقَ
he ran away

the ship
ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ
laden

[Mention] when he ran away to the laden ship.
37:141
فَسَاهَمَ
Then he drew lots
فَكَانَ
and was
مِنَ
of
ٱلۡمُدۡحَضِينَ
the losers
١٤١
And he drew lots1 and was among the losers.
37:142
فَٱلۡتَقَمَهُ
Then swallowed him
ٱلۡحُوتُ
the fish
وَهُوَ
while he
مُلِيمٌ

Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy.1
37:143

لَلَبِثَ
Certainly, he (would have) remained

in
بَطۡنِهِۦٓ
its belly
إِلَىٰ
until
يَوۡمِ
the Day
يُبۡعَثُونَ
they are resurrected
١٤٤
He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected.1
37:145
۞فَنَبَذۡنَـٰهُ
But We cast him
بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ
onto the open shore
وَهُوَ
while he
سَقِيمٌ
(was) ill
١٤٥
But We threw him onto the open shore while he was ill.
37:146
وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا
And We caused to grow

And We sent him1 to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more.

فَـَٔـامَنُواۡ
And they believed

so We gave them enjoyment
إِلَىٰ
for
حِينٍ
a while
١٤٨
And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.
37:149
فَٱسۡتَفۡتِهِمۡ
Then ask them
أَلِرَبِّكَ
Does your Lord
ٱلۡبَنَاتُ
(have) daughters
وَلَهُمُ
while for them
ٱلۡبَنُونَ
(are) sons
١٤٩
So inquire of them, [O Muḥammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?1
37:150
أَمۡ
Or
خَلَقۡنَا
did We create
ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ
the Angels
إِنَـٰثًا
females
وَهُمۡ
while they
شَـٰهِدُونَ
(were) witnesses
١٥٠
Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?"
37:151
أَلَآ
No doubt
إِنَّهُم
indeed, they
مِّنۡ
of
إِفۡكِهِمۡ
their falsehood
لَيَقُولُونَ
[they] say
١٥١
Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say,
37:152
وَلَدَ
Allah has begotten
ٱللَّهُ
Allah has begotten
وَإِنَّهُمۡ
and indeed, they
لَكَـٰذِبُونَ
surely (are) liars
١٥٢
"Allāh has begotten," and indeed, they are liars.
37:153
أَصۡطَفَى
Has He chosen
ٱلۡبَنَاتِ
[the] daughters
عَلَى
over
ٱلۡبَنِينَ
sons

Has He chosen daughters over sons?

How

What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?
37:155
أَفَلَا
Then will not
تَذَكَّرُونَ
you pay heed
١٥٥
Then will you not be reminded?
37:156
أَمۡ
Or
لَكُمۡ
(is) for you
سُلۡطَـٰنٌ
an authority
مُّبِينٌ
clear
١٥٦
Or do you have a clear authority?1
37:157
فَأۡتُواۡ
Then bring
بِكِتَـٰبِكُمۡ
your book
إِن
if
كُنتُمۡ
you are
صَـٰدِقِينَ
truthful
١٥٧
Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.
37:158

And they have made
بَيۡنَهُۥ
between Him

And they have made [i.e., claimed] between Him and the jinn a lineage, but the jinn have already known that they [who made such claims] will be brought [to punishment].
37:159
سُبۡحَـٰنَ
Glory be
ٱللَّهِ

وَإِن

لَوۡ
If

But they disbelieved

لَهُمُ
surely they
ٱلۡمَنصُورُونَ
(would be) the victorious
١٧٢
[That] indeed, they would be those given victory
37:173
وَإِنَّ
And indeed
جُندَنَا
Our host
لَهُمُ
surely, they
ٱلۡغَـٰلِبُونَ
(will be) those who overcome
١٧٣
And [that] indeed, Our soldiers [i.e., the believers] will be those who overcome.1
37:174
فَتَوَلَّ
So turn away
عَنۡهُمۡ
from them
حَتَّىٰ
until
حِينٍ
a time
١٧٤
So, [O Muḥammad], leave them for a time.
37:175
وَأَبۡصِرۡهُمۡ
And see them
فَسَوۡفَ
so soon
يُبۡصِرُونَ
they will see
١٧٥
And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.
37:176
أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا
Then is (it) for Our punishment
يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ
they hasten
١٧٦
Then for Our punishment are they impatient?
37:177
فَإِذَا
But when
نَزَلَ
it descends
بِسَاحَتِهِمۡ
in their territory
فَسَآءَ
then evil (will be)
صَبَاحُ
(the) morning
ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ
(for) those who were warned
١٧٧
But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.
37:178
وَتَوَلَّ
So turn away
عَنۡهُمۡ
from them
حَتَّىٰ
for
حِينٍ
a time
١٧٨
And leave them for a time.
37:179
وَأَبۡصِرۡ
And see
فَسَوۡفَ
so soon
يُبۡصِرُونَ
they will see
١٧٩
And see, for they are going to see.

Glory
رَبِّكَ
(be to) your Lord
رَبِّ
(the) Lord
ٱلۡعِزَّةِ
(of) Honor
عَمَّا
above what
يَصِفُونَ
they attribute
١٨٠
Exalted is your Lord, the Lord of might, above what they describe.

وَسَلَـٰمٌ
And peace be
عَلَى
upon
ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
the Messengers
١٨١
And peace upon the messengers.

And all praise
لِلَّهِ
(be) to Allah

(the) Lord
ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِينَ
(of) the worlds
