dark
and he
كَظِي مٌ
١٧(is) filled with grief
And when one of them is given good tidings of that which he attributes to the Most Merciful in comparison [i.e., a daughter], his face becomes dark, and he suppresses grief.
43:18
أَوَمَن
Then (is one) who
is brought up

وَقَالُواۡ
And they say
لَوۡ
If
شَا ٓءَ
had willed
the Most Gracious
مَا
we would not have worshipped them
عَبَدۡ نَـٰ هُمۗ
we would not have worshipped them
Not

إِنۡ
Nothing
هُمۡ
they (do)
إِلَّا
but
يَخۡرُصُو نَ
٢٠lie
And they said, "If the Most Merciful had willed, we would not have worshipped them." They have of that no knowledge. They are not but misjudging.
43:21
أَمۡ
Or
ءَاتَيۡنَـٰ هُمۡ

٢١(are) holding fast
Or have We given them a book before it [i.e., the Qur’ān] to which they are adhering?

Indeed, we

[we] found
ءَابَا ٓءَنَا
our forefathers
عَلَىٰٓ
upon
أُمّ َةٍ
a religion
and indeed, we

their footsteps
(are) guided
Rather, they say, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are in their footsteps [rightly] guided."
43:23
وَكَذٰ
And thus
مَآ
not
أَرۡسَلۡنَا
We sent
مِن
before you

فِى
in
قَرۡيَةٍ
a town
any
warner
إِلَّا
except
قَالَ

(the) wealthy ones of it
إِنّ َا
Indeed, we
وَجَدۡ نَآ
[we] found
ءَابَا ٓءَنَا
our forefathers
عَلَىٰٓ
on
أُمّ َةٍ
a religion
and indeed, we
عَلَىٰٓ
[on]
ءَاثَـٰ رِهِم
their footsteps
(are) following
And similarly, We did not send before you any warner into a city except that its affluent said, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are, in their footsteps, following."
43:24
۞قَـٰ لَ
He said
أَوَلَوۡ
Even if
جِئۡتُكُم
I brought you
better guidance
مِمّ َا
than what
وَجَد تُّمۡ
you found
عَلَيۡهِ
on it
ءَابَا ٓءَكُمۡۖ
your forefathers
قَالُوٓ اۡ
They said
إِنّ َا
Indeed, we
بِمَآ
with what
أُرۡسِلۡتُم
you are sent
with [it]
كَـٰ فِرُو نَ
٢٤(are) disbelievers
[Each warner] said, "Even if I brought you better guidance than that [religion] upon which you found your fathers?" They said, "Indeed we, in that with which you were sent, are disbelievers."
43:25
فَٱ نت َقَمۡنَا
So We took retribution
مِنۡهُمۡۖ
from them
فَٱ نظ ُرۡ
Then see
كَيۡفَ
how
كَانَ
was
عَـٰ قِبَةُ
(the) end
(of) the deniers
So We took retribution from them; then see how was the end of the deniers.
43:26
وَإِذۡ
And when
قَالَ
Ibrahim Said
إِبۡ رٰ
Ibrahim Said
لِأَبِيهِ
to his father
وَقَوۡمِهِۦٓ
and his people
إِنّ َنِى
Indeed, I (am)
بَرَا ٓءٌ
disassociated
from what
تَعۡبُدُو نَ
٢٦you worship
And [mention, O Muḥammad], when Abraham said to his father and his people, "Indeed, I am disassociated from that which you worship
43:27
إِلَّا
Except
the One Who
فَطَرَنِى
created me
فَإِنّ َهُۥ
and indeed, He
سَيَهۡدِي نِ
٢٧will guide me
Except for He who created me; and indeed, He will guide me."
43:28
وَجَعَلَهَا
And he made it
كَلِمَةَۢ
a word
lasting
among
عَقِبِهِۦ
his descendents
لَعَلَّهُمۡ
so that they may
يَرۡجِعُو نَ
٢٨return
And he made it1 a word remaining among his descendants that they might return [to it].
43:29
بَلۡ
Nay
مَتَّعۡتُ
I gave enjoyment
هَـٰٓ ؤُلَا ٓءِ
(to) these
وَءَابَا ٓءَهُمۡ
and their forefathers
حَتَّىٰ
until
جَا ٓءَهُمُ
came to them
the truth
وَرَسُولٌ
and a Messenger
clear
However, I gave enjoyment to these [people of Makkah] and their fathers1 until there came to them the truth and a clear Messenger.2
43:30
وَلَمّ َا
And when
جَا ٓءَهُمُ
came to them
the truth
قَالُواۡ
they said
هَـٰ ذَا
This
سِحۡرٌ
(is) magic
and indeed, we
بِهِۦ
of it
كَـٰ فِرُو نَ
٣٠(are) disbelievers
But when the truth came to them, they said, "This is magic, and indeed we are, concerning it, disbelievers."
43:31
وَقَالُواۡ
And they say
لَوۡلَا
Why not
نُزِّلَ
was sent down
هَـٰ ذَا
this
the Quran
عَلَىٰ
to
رَجُلٍ
a man
from
the two towns
عَظِي مٍ
٣١great
And they said, "Why was this Qur’ān not sent down upon a great man from [one of] the two cities?"1
43:32
أَهُمۡ
Do they
يَقۡ سِمُونَ
distribute
رَحۡمَتَ
(the) Mercy
رَبِّكَۚ
(of) your Lord
نَحۡنُ
We
قَسَمۡنَا
[We] distribute
بَيۡنَهُم
among them
their livelihood
فِى
in
the life
(of) the world
وَرَفَعۡنَا
and We raise
بَعۡضَهُمۡ
some of them
فَوۡقَ
above
بَعۡضٍ
others
(in) degrees
so that may take
بَعۡضُهُم
some of them
others
(for) service
But (the) Mercy
رَبِّكَ
(of) your Lord
خَيۡرٌ
(is) better
than what
يَجۡ مَعُو نَ
٣٢they accumulate
Do they distribute the mercy of your Lord? It is We who have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of this world and have raised some of them above others in degrees [of rank] that they may make use of one another for service. But the mercy of your Lord is better than whatever they accumulate.
43:33
وَلَوۡلَآ
And if not
أَن
that
(would) become
[the] mankind
أُمّ َةً
a community
one
We (would have) made
لِمَن
for (one) who
disbelieves
بِٱ ل رَّحۡمَـٰ نِ
in the Most Gracious
لِبُيُوتِهِمۡ
for their houses
سُقُفًا
roofs
of
silver
and stairways
عَلَيۡهَا
upon which
يَظۡهَرُو نَ
٣٣they mount
And if it were not that the people would become one community [of disbelievers],1 We would have made for those who disbelieve in the Most Merciful - for their houses - ceilings and stairways of silver upon which to mount.
43:34
وَلِبُيُوتِهِمۡ
And for their houses
أَبۡ وٰ بًا
doors
and couches
عَلَيۡهَا
upon which
يَتَّكِــُٔو نَ
٣٤they recline
And for their houses - doors and couches [of silver] upon which to recline
43:35
وَزُخۡرُفًاۚ
And ornaments of gold
And not (is)
all
ذٰ
that
لَمّ َا
but
مَتَـٰ عُ
an enjoyment
(of) the life
(of) the world
وَٱ لۡأَخِرَةُ
And the Hereafter
عِند َ
with
رَبِّكَ
your Lord
لِلۡمُتَّقِي نَ
٣٥(is) for the righteous
And gold ornament. But all that is not but the enjoyment of worldly life. And the Hereafter with your Lord is for the righteous.
43:36
وَمَن
And whoever
turns away
عَن
from
(the) remembrance
(of) the Most Gracious
نُقَيِّضۡ
We appoint
لَهُۥ
for him
شَيۡطَـٰ نًا
a devil
then he
لَهُۥ
(is) to him
قَرِي نٌ
٣٦a companion
And whoever is blinded from remembrance of the Most Merciful - We appoint for him a devil, and he is to him a companion.
43:37
وَإِنّ َهُمۡ
And indeed, they
لَيَصُدُّونَهُمۡ
surely, turn them
عَنِ
from
the Path
وَيَحۡسَبُونَ
and they think
أَنّ َهُم
that they
(are) guided
And indeed, they [i.e., the devils] avert them from the way [of guidance] while they think that they are [rightly] guided
43:38
حَتَّىٰٓ
Until
إِذَا
when
جَا ٓءَنَا
he comes to Us
قَالَ
he says
يَـٰ لَيۡتَ
O would that
بَيۡنِى
between me
وَبَيۡنَكَ
and between you
بُعۡدَ
(were the) distance
(of) the East and the West
فَبِئۡسَ
How wretched is
the companion
Until, when he comes to Us [at Judgement], he says [to his companion], "How I wish there was between me and you the distance between the east and west; and what a wretched companion."
43:39
وَلَن
And never
will benefit you
the Day
إِذ
when
ظَّلَمۡتُمۡ
you have wronged
أَنّ َكُمۡ
that you
فِى
(will be) in
the punishment
مُشۡتَرِكُو نَ
٣٩sharing
And never will it benefit you that Day, when you have wronged, that you are [all] sharing in the punishment.
43:40
أَفَأَنت َ
Then can you
تُسۡمِعُ
cause to hear
the deaf
أَوۡ
or
تَهۡدِى
guide
the blind
وَمَن
and (one) who
is
فِى
in

an error
clear
Then will you make the deaf hear, [O Muḥammad], or guide the blind or he who is in clear error?
43:41
فَإِمّ َا
And whether
نَذۡهَبَنّ َ
We take you away
بِكَ
We take you away
فَإِنّ َا
then indeed, We
مِنۡهُم
from them
(will) take retribution
And whether [or not] We take you away [in death], indeed, We will take retribution upon them.
43:42
أَوۡ
Or
نُرِيَنّ َكَ
We show you
that which
وَعَدۡ نَـٰ هُمۡ
We have promised them
فَإِنّ َا
then indeed, We
عَلَيۡهِم
over them
have full power
Or whether [or not] We show you that which We have promised them, indeed, We are Perfect in Ability.
43:43

Indeed, you

a Path
Straight
So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path.
43:44
وَإِنّ َهُۥ
And indeed, it
لَذِكۡرٌ
(is) surely, a Reminder
for you
وَلِقَوۡمِكَۖ
and your people

were
قَوۡمًا
