26:1  Ta Sin Mim

26:2  These are the verses of the Book that makes (things) clear

26:3  Perhaps you will kill yourself with grief because they do not believe

26:4  If We please, We should send down upon them a sign from the heaven so that their necks should stoop to it

26:5  And there does not come to them a new reminder from the Beneficent Allah but they turn aside from it

26:6  So they have indeed rejected (the truth), therefore the news of that which they mock shall soon come to them

26:7  Do they not see the earth, how many of every noble kind We have caused to grow in it

26:8  Most surely there is a sign in that, but most of them will not believe

26:9  And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful

26:10  And when your Lord called out to Musa, saying: Go to the unjust people

26:11  The people of Firon: Will they not guard (against evil)

26:12  He said: O my Lord! surely I fear that they will reject me

26:13  And by breast straitens, and my tongue is not eloquent, therefore send Thou to Haroun (to help me)

26:14  And they have a crime against me, therefore I fear that they may slay me

26:15  He said: By no means, so go you both with Our signs; surely We are with you, hearing

26:16  Then come to Firon and say: Surely we are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds

26:17  Then send with us the children of Israel

26:18  (Firon) said: Did we not bring you up as a child among us, and you tarried among us for (many) years of your life

26:19  And you did (that) deed of yours which you did, and you are one of the ungrateful

26:20  He said: I did it then while I was of those unable to see the right course

26:21  So I fled from you when I feared you, then my Lord granted me wisdom and made me of the messengers

26:22  And is it a favor of which you remind me that you have enslaved the children of Israel

26:23  Firon said: And what is the Lord of the worlds

26:24  He said: The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, if you would be sure

26:25  (Firon) said to those around him: Do you not hear

26:26  He said: Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of old

26:27  Said he: Most surely your Messenger who is sent to you is mad

26:28  He said: The Lord of the east and the west and what is between them, if you understand

26:29  Said he: If you will take a god besides me, I will most certainly make you one of the imprisoned

26:30  He said: What! even if I bring to you something manifest

26:31  Said he: Bring it then, if you are of the truthful ones

26:32  So he cast down his rod, and lo! it was an obvious serpent

26:33  And he drew forth his hand, and lo! it appeared white to the onlookers

26:34  (Firon) said to the chiefs around him: Most surely this is a skillful magician

26:35  Who desires to turn you out of your land with his magic; what is it then that you advise

26:36  They said: Give him and his brother respite and send heralds into the citie

26:37  That they should bring to you every skillful magician

26:38  So the magicians were gathered together at the appointed time on the fixed day

26:39  And it was said to the people: Will you gather together

26:40  Haply we may follow the magicians, if they are the vanquishers

26:41  And when the magicians came, they said to Firon: Shall we get a reward if we are the vanquishers

26:42  He said: Yes, and surely you will then be of those who are made near

26:43  Musa said to them: Cast what you are going to cast

26:44  So they cast down their cords and their rods and said: By Firon's power, we shall most surely be victorious

26:45  Then Musa cast down his staff and lo! it swallowed up the lies they told

26:46  And the magicians were thrown down prostrate

26:47  They said: We believe in the Lord of the worlds

26:48  The Lord of Musa and Haroun

26:49  Said he: You believe in him before I give you permission; most surely he is the chief of you who taught you the magic, so you shall know: certainly I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and certainly I will crucify you all

26:50  They said: No harm; surely to our Lord we go back

26:51  Surely we hope that our Lord will forgive us our wrongs because we are the first of the believers

26:52  And We revealed to Musa, saying: Go away with My servants travelling by night, surely you will be pursued

26:53  So Firon sent heralds into the cities

26:54  Most surely these are a small company

26:55  And most surely they have enraged us

26:56  And most surely we are a vigilant multitude

26:57  So We turned them out of gardens and springs

26:58  And treasures and goodly dwellings

26:59  Even so. And We gave them as a heritage to the children of Israel

26:60  Then they pursued them at sunrise

26:61  So when the two hosts saw each other, the companions of Musa cried out: Most surely we are being overtaken

26:62  He said: By no means; surely my Lord is with me: He will show me a way out

26:63  Then We revealed to Musa: Strike the sea with your staff. So it had cloven asunder, and each part was like a huge mound

26:64  And We brought near, there, the others

26:65  And We saved Musa and those with him, all of them

26:66  Then We drowned the others

26:67  Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe

26:68  And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful

26:69  And recite to them the story of Ibrahim

26:70  When he said to his father and his people: What do you worship

26:71  They said: We worship idols, so we shall be their votaries

26:72  He said: Do they hear you when you call

26:73  Or do they profit you or cause you harm

26:74  They said: Nay, we found our fathers doing so

26:75  He said: Have you then considered what you have been worshipping

26:76  You and your ancient sires

26:77  Surely they are enemies to me, but not (so) the Lord of the worlds

26:78  Who created me, then He has shown me the way

26:79  And He Who gives me to eat and gives me to drink

26:80  And when I am sick, then He restores me to healt

26:81  And He Who will cause me to die, then give me life

26:82  And Who, I hope, will forgive me my mistakes on the day of judgment

26:83  My Lord: Grant me wisdom, and join me with the goo

26:84  And ordain for me a goodly mention among posterit

26:85  And make me of the heirs of the garden of blis

26:86  And forgive my father, for surely he is of those who have gone astray

26:87  And disgrace me not on the day when they are raise

26:88  The day on which property will not avail, nor son

26:89  Except him who comes to Allah with a heart free (from evil)

26:90  And the garden shall be brought near for those who guard (against evil)

26:91  And the hell shall be made manifest to the erring ones

26:92  And it shall be said to them: Where are those that you used to worship

26:93  Besides Allah? Can they help you or yet help themselves

26:94  So they shall be thrown down into it, they and the erring ones

26:95  And the hosts of the Shaitan, all

26:96  They shall say while they contend therein

26:97  By Allah! we were certainly in manifest error

26:98  When we made you equal to the Lord of the worlds

26:99  And none but the guilty led us astray

26:100  So we have no intercessors

26:101  Nor a true friend

26:102  But if we could but once return, we would be of the believers

26:103  Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe

26:104  And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful

26:105  The people of Nuh rejected the messengers

26:106  When their brother Nuh said to them: Will you not guard (against evil)

26:107  Surely I am a faithful messenger to you

26:108  Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey m

26:109  And I do not ask you any reward for it; my reward is only with the Lord of the worlds

26:110  So guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me

26:111  They said: Shall we believe in you while the meanest follow you

26:112  He said: And what knowledge have I of what they do

26:113  Their account is only with my Lord, if you could perceiv

26:114  And I am not going to drive away the believers

26:115  I am naught but a plain warner

26:116  They said: If you desist not, O Nuh, you shall most certainly be of those stoned to death

26:117  He said: My Lord! Surely my people give me the lie

26:118  Therefore judge Thou between me and them with a (just) judgment, and deliver me and those who are with me of the believers

26:119  So We delivered him and those with him in the laden ark

26:120  Then We drowned the rest afterward

26:121  Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe

26:122  And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful

26:123  Ad gave the lie to the messengers

26:124  When their brother Hud said to them: Will you not guard (against evil)

26:125  Surely I am a faithful messenger to you

26:126  Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me

26:127  And I do not ask you any reward for it; surely my reward is only with the Lord of the world

26:128  Do you build on every height a monument? Vain is it that you do

26:129  And you make strong fortresses that perhaps you ma

26:130  And when you lay hands (on men) you lay hands (like) tyrants

26:131  So guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey m

26:132  And be careful of (your duty to) Him Who has given you abundance of what you know

26:133  He has given you abundance of cattle and childre

26:134  And gardens and fountains

26:135  Surely I fear for you the chastisement of a grievous da

26:136  They said: It is the same to us whether you admonish or are not one of the admonisher

26:137  This is naught but a custom of the ancients

26:138  And we are not going to be punished

26:139  So they gave him the lie, then We destroyed them. Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe

26:140  And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful

26:141  Samood gave the lie to the messenger

26:142  When their brother Salih said to them: Will you not guard (against evil)

26:143  Surely I am a faithful messenger to yo

26:144  Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me

26:145  And I do not ask you any reward for it; my reward is only with the Lord of the worlds

26:146  Will you be left secure in what is here

26:147  In gardens and fountains

26:148  And cornfields and palm-trees having fine spadices

26:149  And you hew houses out of the mountains exultingly

26:150  Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me

26:151  And do not obey the bidding of the extravagant

26:152  Who make mischief in the land and do not act aright

26:153  They said: You are only of the deluded ones

26:154  You are naught but a mortal like ourselves; so bring a sign if you are one of the truthful

26:155  He said: This is a she-camel; she shall have her portion of water, and you have your portion of water on an appointed time

26:156  And do not touch her with evil, lest the punishment of a grievous day should overtake you

26:157  But they hamstrung her, then regretted

26:158  So the punishment overtook them. Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe

26:159  And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful

26:160  The people of Lut gave the lie to the messengers

26:161  When their brother Lut said to them: Will you not guard (against evil)

26:162  Surely I am a faithful messenger to you

26:163  Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me

26:164  And I do not ask you any reward for it; my reward is only with the Lord of the worlds

26:165  What! do you come to the males from among the creature

26:166  And leave what your Lord has created for you of your wives? Nay, you are a people exceeding limits

26:167  They said: If you desist not, O Lut! you shall surely be of those who are expelled

26:168  He said: Surely I am of those who utterly abhor you

26:169  My Lord! deliver me and my followers from what they do

26:170  So We delivered him and his followers all

26:171  Except an old woman, among those who remained behind

26:172  Then We utterly destroyed the others

26:173  And We rained down upon them a rain, and evil was the rain on those warned

26:174  Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe

26:175  And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful

26:176  The dwellers of the thicket gave the lie to the messengers

26:177  When Shu'aib said to them: Will you not guard (against evil)

26:178  Surely I am a faithful messenger to you

26:179  Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me

26:180  And I do not ask you any reward for it, my reward is only with the Lord of the worlds

26:181  Give a full measure and be not of those who diminish

26:182  And weigh (things) with a right balance

26:183  And do not wrong men of their things, and do not act corruptly in the earth, making mischief

26:184  And guard against (the punishment of) Him who created you and the former nations

26:185  They said: You are only of those deluded

26:186  And you are naught but a mortal like ourselves, and we know you to be certainly of the liars

26:187  Therefore cause a portion of the heaven to come down upon us, if you are one of the truthful

26:188  He said: My Lord knows best what you do

26:189  But they called him a liar, so the punishment of the day of covering overtook them; surely it was the punishment of a grievous day

26:190  Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe

26:191  And most surely your Lord is Mighty, the Merciful

26:192  And most surely this is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds

26:193  The Faithful Spirit has descended with it

26:194  Upon your heart that you may be of the warner

26:195  In plain Arabic language

26:196  And most surely the same is in the scriptures of the ancients

26:197  Is it not a sign to them that the learned men of the Israelites know it

26:198  And if we had revealed it to any of the foreigner

26:199  So that he should have recited it to them, they would not have believed therein

26:200  Thus have We caused it to enter into the hearts of the guilty

26:201  They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment

26:202  And it shall come to them all of a sudden, while they shall not perceive

26:203  Then they will say: Shall we be respited

26:204  What! do they still seek to hasten on Our punishment

26:205  Have you then considered if We let them enjoy themselves for years

26:206  Then there comes to them that with which they are threatened

26:207  That which they were made to enjoy shall not avail them

26:208  And We did not destroy any town but it had (its) warners

26:209  To remind, and We are never unjust

26:210  And the Shaitans have not come down with it

26:211  And it behoves them not, and they have not the power to do (it)

26:212  Most surely they are far removed from the hearing of it

26:213  So call not upon another god with Allah, lest you be of those who are punished

26:214  And warn your nearest relations

26:215  And be kind to him who follows you of the believers

26:216  But if they disobey you, then say: Surely I am clear of what you do

26:217  And rely on the Mighty, the Merciful

26:218  Who sees you when you stand up

26:219  And your turning over and over among those who prostrate themselves before Allah

26:220  Surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing

26:221  Shall I inform you (of him) upon whom the Shaitans descend

26:222  They descend upon every lying, sinful one

26:223  They incline their ears, and most of them are liars

26:224  And as to the poets, those who go astray follow them

26:225  Do you not see that they wander about bewildered in every valley

26:226  And that they say that which they do not do

26:227  Except those who believe and do good and remember Allah much, and defend themselves after they are oppressed; and they who act unjustly shall know to what final place of turning they shall turn back
