Dhul-qarnain

I will recite
عَلَيۡكُم
to you
مِّنۡهُ
about him
ذِكۡرًا
a remembrance
٨٣
And they ask you, [O Muḥammad], about Dhul-Qarnayn. Say, "I will recite to you about him a report."
18:84
إِنَّا
Indeed, We
مَكَّنَّا
[We] established
لَهُۥ
[for] him
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
the earth
وَءَاتَيۡنَـٰهُ
and We gave him
مِن
of
كُلِّ
every
شَىۡءٍ
thing
سَبَبًا
a means
٨٤
Indeed, We established him upon the earth, and We gave him from everything a way [i.e., means].
18:85
فَأَتۡبَعَ
So he followed
سَبَبًا
a course
٨٥
So he followed a way

حَتَّىٰٓ

ٱلشَّمۡسِ
(of) the sun
وَجَدَهَا
he found it
تَغۡرُبُ
setting
فِى
in
عَيۡنٍ
a spring
حَمِئَةٍ
(of) dark mud
وَوَجَدَ
and he found
عِندَهَا
near it
قَوۡمًا‌ۗ
a community
قُلۡنَا
We said
يَـٰذَا
O Dhul-qarnain
ٱلۡقَرۡنَيۡنِ
O Dhul-qarnain
إِمَّآ
Either
أَن
[that]
تُعَذِّبَ
you punish
وَإِمَّآ
or
أَن
[that]
تَتَّخِذَ
you take
فِيهِمۡ
[in] them
حُسۡنًا
(with) goodness
٨٦
Until, when he reached the setting of the sun [i.e., the west], he found it [as if] setting in a body of dark water,1 and he found near it a people. We [i.e., Allāh] said, "O Dhul-Qarnayn, either you punish [them] or else adopt among them [a way of] goodness."
18:87
قَالَ
He said
أَمَّا
As for
مَن
(one) who
ظَلَمَ
wrongs
فَسَوۡفَ
then soon
نُعَذِّبُهُۥ
we will punish him
ثُمَّ
Then
يُرَدُّ
he will be returned
إِلَىٰ
to
رَبِّهِۦ
his Lord
فَيُعَذِّبُهُۥ
and He will punish him
عَذَابًا
(with) a punishment
نُّكۡرًا
terrible
٨٧
He said, "As for one who wrongs,1 we will punish him. Then he will be returned to his Lord, and He will punish him with a terrible punishment [i.e., Hellfire].
18:88
وَأَمَّا
But as for
مَنۡ
(one) who
ءَامَنَ
believes
وَعَمِلَ
and does
صَـٰلِحًا
righteous (deeds)
فَلَهُۥ
then for him
جَزَآءً
(is) a reward
ٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ‌ۖ
good
وَسَنَقُولُ
And we will speak
لَهُۥ
to him
مِنۡ
from
أَمۡرِنَا
our command
يُسۡرًا
(with) ease
٨٨
But as for one who believes and does righteousness, he will have a reward of the best [i.e., Paradise], and we [i.e., Dhul-Qarnayn] will speak to him from our command with ease."

Then
أَتۡبَعَ

إِذَا
when
بَلَغَ

(of) the sun
وَجَدَهَا
and he found it
تَطۡلُعُ
rising
عَلَىٰ
on
قَوۡمٍ

لَّمۡ
not
نَجۡعَل
We made
لَّهُم
for them

against it
سِتۡرًا
any shelter
٩٠
Until, when he came to the rising of the sun [i.e., the east], he found it rising on a people for whom We had not made against it any shield.
18:91
كَذٰلِكَ
Thus
وَقَدۡ
And verily
أَحَطۡنَا
We encompassed
بِمَا
of what
لَدَيۡهِ
(was) with him
خُبۡرًا
(of the) information
٩١
Thus.1 And We had encompassed [all] that he had in knowledge.

Then he followed a way.

Until
إِذَا
when
بَلَغَ

he found
مِن
besides them
دُونِهِمَا
besides them
قَوۡمًا
a community
لَّا
not
يَكَادُونَ
who would almost
يَفۡقَهُونَ
understand
قَوۡلاً
(his) speech
٩٣
Until, when he reached [a pass] between two mountains, he found beside them a people who could hardly understand [his] speech.
18:94
قَالُواۡ
They said
يَـٰذَا
O Dhul-qarnain
ٱلۡقَرۡنَيۡنِ
O Dhul-qarnain
إِنَّ
Indeed
يَأۡجُوجَ
Yajuj
وَمَأۡجُوجَ
and Majuj
مُفۡسِدُونَ
(are) corrupters
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
the land
فَهَلۡ
So may
نَجۡعَلُ
we make
لَكَ
for you
خَرۡجًا
an expenditure
عَلَىٰٓ
[on]
أَن
that
تَجۡعَلَ
you make
بَيۡنَنَا
between us
وَبَيۡنَهُمۡ
and between them
سَدًّا
a barrier
٩٤
They said, "O Dhul-Qarnayn, indeed Gog and Magog1 are [great] corrupters in the land. So may we assign for you an expenditure that you might make between us and them a barrier?"
18:95
قَالَ
He said
مَا
What
مَكَّنِّى
has established me
فِيهِ
[in it]
رَبِّى
my Lord
خَيۡرٌ
(is) better
فَأَعِينُونِى
but assist me
بِقُوَّةٍ
with strength
أَجۡعَلۡ
I will make
بَيۡنَكُمۡ
between you
وَبَيۡنَهُمۡ
and between them
رَدۡمًا
a barrier
٩٥
He said, "That in which my Lord has established me is better [than what you offer], but assist me with strength [i.e., manpower]; I will make between you and them a dam.
18:96
ءَاتُونِى
Bring me
زُبَرَ
sheets
ٱلۡحَدِيدِ‌ۖ
(of) iron
حَتَّىٰٓ
until
إِذَا
when
سَاوَىٰ
he (had) leveled
بَيۡنَ
between
ٱلصَّدَفَيۡنِ
the two cliffs
قَالَ
he said
ٱنفُخُواۡ‌ۖ
Blow
حَتَّىٰٓ
until
إِذَا
when
جَعَلَهُۥ
he made it
نَارًا
fire
قَالَ
he said
ءَاتُونِىٓ
Bring me
أُفۡرِغۡ
I pour
عَلَيۡهِ
over it
قِطۡرًا
molten copper
٩٦
Bring me bars of iron" - until, when he had leveled [them] between the two mountain walls, he said, "Blow [with bellows]," until when he had made it [like] fire, he said, "Bring me, that I may pour over it molten copper."
18:97
فَمَا
So not
ٱسۡطَـٰعُوٓاۡ
they were able
أَن
to
يَظۡهَرُوهُ
scale it
وَمَا
and not
ٱسۡتَطَـٰعُواۡ
they were able
لَهُۥ
in it
نَقۡبًا
(to do) any penetration
٩٧
So they [i.e., Gog and Magog] were unable to pass over it, nor were they able [to effect] in it any penetration.
18:98
قَالَ
He said
هَـٰذَا
This
رَحۡمَةٌ
(is) a mercy
مِّن
from
رَّبِّى‌ۖ
my Lord
فَإِذَا
But when
جَآءَ
comes
وَعۡدُ
(the) Promise
رَبِّى
(of) my Lord
جَعَلَهُۥ
He will make it
دَكَّآءَ‌ۖ
level
وَكَانَ
And is
وَعۡدُ
(the) Promise
رَبِّى
(of) my Lord
حَقًّا
true
٩٨
[Dhul-Qarnayn] said, "This is a mercy from my Lord; but when the promise of my Lord1 comes [i.e., approaches], He will make it level, and ever is the promise of my Lord true."
18:99
۞وَتَرَكۡنَا
And We (will) leave
بَعۡضَهُمۡ
some of them
يَوۡمَئِذٍ
(on) that Day
يَمُوجُ
to surge
فِى
over
بَعۡضٍ‌ۖ
others
وَنُفِخَ
and (will be) blown
فِى
in
ٱلصُّورِ
the trumpet
فَجَمَعۡنَـٰهُمۡ
then We (will) gather them
جَمۡعًا
all together
٩٩
And We will leave them that day1 surging over each other, and [then] the Horn will be blown, and We will assemble them in [one] assembly.
18:100
وَعَرَضۡنَا
And We (will) present
جَهَنَّمَ
Hell
يَوۡمَئِذٍ
(on) that Day
لِّلۡكَـٰفِرِينَ
to the disbelievers
عَرۡضًا
(on) display
١٠٠
And We will present Hell that Day to the disbelievers, on display -
18:101
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those
كَانَتۡ
had been
أَعۡيُنُهُمۡ
their eyes
فِى
within
غِطَآءٍ
a cover
عَن
from
ذِكۡرِى

able
سَمۡعًا
(to) hear
