Surah Al-Qalam

Nun. By the pen and what they inscribe,

Juz 29

You are not, [O Muhammad], by the favor of your Lord, a madman.

Juz 29

And indeed, for you is a reward uninterrupted.

Juz 29

And indeed, you are of a great moral character.

Juz 29

So you will see and they will see

Juz 29

Which of you is the afflicted [by a devil].

Juz 29

Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has gone astray from His way, and He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided.

Juz 29

Then do not obey the deniers.

Juz 29

They wish that you would soften [in your position], so they would soften [toward you].

Juz 29

And do not obey every worthless habitual swearer

Juz 29

[And] scorner, going about with malicious gossip -

Juz 29

A preventer of good, transgressing and sinful,

Juz 29

Cruel, moreover, and an illegitimate pretender.

Juz 29

Because he is a possessor of wealth and children,

Juz 29

When Our verses are recited to him, he says, "Legends of the former peoples."

Juz 29

We will brand him upon the snout.

Juz 29

Indeed, We have tried them as We tried the companions of the garden, when they swore to cut its fruit in the [early] morning

Juz 29

Without making exception.

Juz 29

So there came upon the garden an affliction from your Lord while they were asleep.

Juz 29

And it became as though reaped.

Juz 29

And they called one another at morning,

Juz 29

[Saying], "Go early to your crop if you would cut the fruit."

Juz 29

So they set out, while lowering their voices,

Juz 29

[Saying], "There will surely not enter it today upon you [any] poor person."

Juz 29

And they went early in determination, [assuming themselves] able.

Juz 29

But when they saw it, they said, "Indeed, we are lost;

Juz 29

Rather, we have been deprived."

Juz 29

The most moderate of them said, "Did I not say to you, 'Why do you not exalt [Allah]?' "

Juz 29

They said, "Exalted is our Lord! Indeed, we were wrongdoers."

Juz 29

Then they approached one another, blaming each other.

Juz 29

They said, "O woe to us; indeed we were transgressors.

Juz 29

Perhaps our Lord will substitute for us [one] better than it. Indeed, we are toward our Lord desirous."

Juz 29

Such is the punishment [of this world]. And the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.

Juz 29

Indeed, for the righteous with their Lord are the Gardens of Pleasure.

Juz 29

Then will We treat the Muslims like the criminals?

Juz 29

What is [the matter] with you? How do you judge?

Juz 29

Or do you have a scripture in which you learn

Juz 29

That indeed for you is whatever you choose?

Juz 29

Or do you have oaths [binding] upon Us, extending until the Day of Resurrection, that indeed for you is whatever you judge?

Juz 29

Ask them which of them, for that [claim], is responsible.

Juz 29

Or do they have partners? Then let them bring their partners, if they should be truthful.

Juz 29

The Day the shin will be uncovered and they are invited to prostration but the disbelievers will not be able,

Juz 29

Their eyes humbled, humiliation will cover them. And they used to be invited to prostration while they were sound.

Juz 29

So leave Me, [O Muhammad], with [the matter of] whoever denies the Qur'an. We will progressively lead them [to punishment] from where they do not know.

Juz 29

And I will give them time. Indeed, My plan is firm.

Juz 29

Or do you ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down?

Juz 29

Or have they [knowledge of] the unseen, so they write [it] down?

Juz 29

Then be patient for the decision of your Lord, [O Muhammad], and be not like the companion of the fish when he called out while he was distressed.

Juz 29

If not that a favor from his Lord overtook him, he would have been thrown onto the naked shore while he was censured.

Juz 29

And his Lord chose him and made him of the righteous.

Juz 29

And indeed, those who disbelieve would almost make you slip with their eyes when they hear the message, and they say, "Indeed, he is mad."

Juz 29

But it is not except a reminder to the worlds.

Juz 29
