| 27:1 | | Ta Seen. These (are the) Verses (of) the Quran and a Book clear |
| 27:2 | | A guidance and glad tidings for the believers, |
| 27:3 | | Those who establish the prayer and give zakah and they in the Hereafter [they] believe with certainty. |
| 27:4 | | Indeed, those who (do) not believe in the Hereafter, We have made fair-seeming to them their deeds, so they wander blindly. |
| 27:5 | | Those (are) the ones, for them (is) an evil [the] punishment and they in the Hereafter [they] (will be) the greatest losers. |
| 27:6 | | And indeed, you surely, receive the Quran from [near] the All-Wise, the All-Knower. |
| 27:7 | | When said Musa to his family, "Indeed, I perceive a fire. I will bring you from it some information or I will bring you a torch burning so that you may warm yourselves." |
| 27:8 | | But when he came to it, he was called [that] "Blessed is who (is) at the fire and whoever (is) around it. And glory be (to) Allah (the) Lord (of) the worlds. |
| 27:9 | | O Musa! Indeed, I Am Allah, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise." |
| 27:10 | | And, "Throw your staff." But when he saw it moving as if it (were) a snake he turned back (in) flight and (did) not look back. "O Musa! (Do) not fear. Indeed, [I] (do) not fear (in) My presence the Messengers. |
| 27:11 | | Except who wrongs then substitutes good after evil, then indeed, I Am Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. |
| 27:12 | | And enter your hand into your bosom it will come forth white from without harm. (These are) among nine signs to Firaun and his people. Indeed, they are a people defiantly disobedient." |
| 27:13 | | But when came to them Our Signs visible, they said, "This (is) a magic manifest." |
| 27:14 | | And they rejected them, though were convinced with the themselves, (out of) injustice and haughtiness. So see how was (the) end (of) the corrupters. |
| 27:15 | | And verily, We gave Dawood and Sulaiman knowledge, and they said, "Praise be to Allah the One Who has favored us over many of His servants the believers." |
| 27:16 | | And inherited Sulaiman Dawood. And he said, "O people! We have been taught (the) language (of) the birds, and we have been given from every thing. Indeed, this surely, it (is) the favor evident." |
| 27:17 | | And were gathered for Sulaiman his hosts of jinn and the men and the birds, and they (were) set in rows. |
| 27:18 | | Until, when they came to (the) valley (of) the ants, said an ant, "O ants! Enter your dwellings not lest crush you Sulaiman and his hosts while they not perceive." |
| 27:19 | | So he smiled - laughing at her speech and said, "My Lord! Grant me (the) power that I may thank You (for) Your Favor which You have bestowed on me and on my parents and that I may do righteous (deeds), that will please You. And admit me by Your Mercy among Your slaves righteous." |
| 27:20 | | And he inspected the birds and said, "Why (for) me not I see the hoopoe or is he from the absent? |
| 27:21 | | I will surely punish him (with) a punishment severe or I will surely slaughter him unless he brings me a reason clear." |
| 27:22 | | So he stayed not long, and he said, "I have encompassed that which not you have encompassed it, and I have come to you from Saba with news certain. |
| 27:23 | | Indeed, I found a woman ruling them and she has been given of every thing and for her (is) a throne great. |
| 27:24 | | And I found her and her people prostrating to the sun from instead (of) Allah, and has made fair-seeming to them the Shaitaan their deeds, and averted them from the Way, so they (are) not guided, |
| 27:25 | | That not they prostrate to Allah, the One Who brings forth the hidden in the heavens and the earth and knows what you conceal and what you declare, |
| 27:26 | | Allah (there is) no god but He, (the) Lord (of) the Throne the Great." |
| 27:27 | | He said, "We will see whether you speak (the) truth or you are of the liars. |
| 27:28 | | Go with my letter, this, and deliver it to them. Then turn away from them and see what they return." |
| 27:29 | | She said, "O chiefs! Indeed [I], is delivered to me a letter noble. |
| 27:30 | | Indeed, it (is) from Sulaiman and indeed it (is), "In the name (of) Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, |
| 27:31 | | That not exalt yourselves against me, but come to me (in) submission." |
| 27:32 | | She said, "O chiefs! Advise me in my affair. Not I would be the one to decide any matter until you are present with me." |
| 27:33 | | They said, "We (are) possessors (of) strength and possessors (of) might great, and the command (is) up to you, so look what you will command." |
| 27:34 | | She said, "Indeed, the kings, when they enter a town they ruin it and make (the) most honorable (of) its people (the) lowest. And thus they do. |
| 27:35 | | But indeed, I am going to send to them a gift and see with what return the messengers." |
| 27:36 | | So when came (to) Sulaiman he said, "Will you provide me with wealth? But what has given me Allah (is) better than what He has given you. Nay, you in your gift rejoice. |
| 27:37 | | Return to them, surely, we will come to them with hosts not (is) resistance for them of it, and surely, we will drive them from there (in) humiliation, and they (will be) abased." |
| 27:38 | | He said, "O chiefs! Which of you will bring me her throne before that they come to me (in) submission?" |
| 27:39 | | Said a strong one of the jinn, "I will bring to you it before [that] you rise from your place. And indeed, I am for it surely, strong, trustworthy." |
| 27:40 | | Said one who, with him (was) knowledge of the Scripture, "I will bring to you it before [that] returns to you your glance." Then when he saw it placed before him, he said, "This (is) from (the) Favor (of) my Lord, to test me whether I am grateful or I am ungrateful. And whoever (is) grateful then only he is grateful for his own soul. And whoever (is) ungrateful, then indeed, my Lord (is) Self-sufficient, Noble." |
| 27:41 | | He said, "Disguise for her her throne; we will see whether she will be guided or will be of those who not are guided." |
| 27:42 | | So when she came, it was said, "Is like this your throne?" She said, "It is like it." "And we were given the knowledge from before her and we have been Muslims." |
| 27:43 | | And has averted her what she used (to) worship from besides Allah. Indeed, she was from a people who disbelieve. |
| 27:44 | | It was said to her, "Enter the palace." Then when she saw it, she thought it (was) a pool, and she uncovered [on] her shins. He said, "Indeed, it (is) a palace made smooth of glass." She said, "My Lord, indeed, I [I] have wronged myself, and I submit with Sulaiman to Allah, (the) Lord (of) the worlds." |
| 27:45 | | And certainly, We sent to Thamud their brother Salih that, "Worship Allah." Then behold! They (became) two parties quarreling. |
| 27:46 | | He said, "O my people! Why (do) you seek to hasten the evil before the good? Why not you ask forgiveness (of) Allah so that you may receive mercy?" |
| 27:47 | | They said, "We consider a bad omen you and those with you." He said, "Your bad omen (is) with Allah. Nay, you (are) a people being tested." |
| 27:48 | | And were in the city nine family heads, they were spreading corruption in the land and not reforming. |
| 27:49 | | They said, "Swear to each other by Allah surely, we will attack him by and his family. Then we will surely say to his heir, "Not we witnessed (the) destruction (of) his family, and indeed, we (are) surely truthful." |
| 27:50 | | So they plotted a plot and We planned a plan, while they (did) not perceive. |
| 27:51 | | Then see how was (the) end (of) their plot, that We destroyed them and their people all. |
| 27:52 | | So, these (are) their houses, ruined because they wronged. Indeed, in that surely, is a sign for a people who know. |
| 27:53 | | And We saved those who believed and used (to) fear (Allah). |
| 27:54 | | And Lut, when he said to his people, "Do you commit [the] immorality while you see? |
| 27:55 | | Why do you approach the men (with) lust from instead of the women? Nay, you (are) a people ignorant." |
| 27:56 | | But not was (the) answer (of) his people except that they said, "Drive out (the) family (of) Lut from your town. Indeed, they (are) people who keep clean and pure." |
| 27:57 | | So We saved him and his family, except his wife; We destined her (to be) of those who remained behind. |
| 27:58 | | And We rained upon them a rain, and was evil (the) rain (on) those who were warned. |
| 27:59 | | Say, "All praise (be) to Allah, and peace (be) upon His slaves those whom He has chosen. Is Allah better or what they associate (with Him)?" |
| 27:60 | | Or Who has created the heavens and the earth and sent down for you from the sky water? And We caused to grow thereby gardens of beauty (and delight), not it is for you that you cause to grow their trees. Is there any god with Allah? Nay, they (are) a people who ascribe equals. |
| 27:61 | | Or Who made the earth a firm abode and made (in) its midst rivers and made for it firm mountains and made between the two seas a barrier? Is there any god with Allah? Nay, most of them (do) not know. |
| 27:62 | | Or Who responds (to) the distressed one when he calls Him and He removes the evil and makes you inheritors (of) the earth? Is there any god with Allah? Little (is) what you remember. |
| 27:63 | | Or Who, guides you in (the) darkness[es] (of) the land and the sea and Who sends the winds (as) glad tidings (from) between (hands) His Mercy? Is there any god with Allah? High is Allah above what they associate (with Him). |
| 27:64 | | Or Who originates the creation then repeats it and Who provides you from the heavens and the earth? Is there any god with Allah? Say, "Bring forth your proof if you are truthful." |
| 27:65 | | Say, "No (one) knows whoever (is) in the heavens and the earth (of) the unseen except Allah, and not they perceive when they will be resurrected." |
| 27:66 | | Nay, is arrested their knowledge of the Hereafter? Nay they (are) in doubt about it. Nay, they about it (are) blind. |
| 27:67 | | And say those who disbelieve, "What, when we have become dust and our forefathers, will we surely be brought out? |
| 27:68 | | Certainly, we have been promised this, we and our forefathers from before. Not (is) this except tales (of) the former (people)." |
| 27:69 | | Say, "Travel in the land, and see how was (the) end (of) the criminals." |
| 27:70 | | And (do) not grieve over them and not be in distress from what they plot. |
| 27:71 | | And they say, "When (will) this promise (be fulfilled), if you are truthful." |
| 27:72 | | Say, "Perhaps that is close behind you, some (of) that which you seek to hasten." |
| 27:73 | | And indeed, your Lord (is) full of Bounty for the mankind, but most of them (are) not grateful. |
| 27:74 | | And indeed, your Lord surely knows what conceals their breasts and what they declare. |
| 27:75 | | And not (is) any (thing) hidden in the heavens and the earth but (is) in a Record clear. |
| 27:76 | | Indeed, this [the] Quran relates to (the) Children (of) Israel, most (of) that they in it differ. |
| 27:77 | | And indeed, it (is) surely a guidance and a mercy for the believers. |
| 27:78 | | Indeed, your Lord will judge between them by His Judgment, and He (is) the All-Mighty, the All-Knower. |
| 27:79 | | So put your trust in Allah, indeed, you (are) on the truth manifest. |
| 27:80 | | Indeed, you (can) not cause to hear the dead and not can you cause to hear the deaf the call when they turn back retreating. |
| 27:81 | | And not (can) you guide the blind from their error. Not you can cause to hear except (those) who believe in Our Signs so they (are) Muslims. |
| 27:82 | | And when (is) fulfilled the word against them, We will bring forth for them a creature from the earth speaking to them, that the people were, of Our Signs, not certain. |
| 27:83 | | And (the) Day We will gather from every nation a troop of (those) who deny Our Signs, and they will be set in rows. |
| 27:84 | | Until, when they come, He will say, "Did you deny My Signs while not you encompassed them (in) knowledge, or what you used (to) do?" |
| 27:85 | | And (will be) fulfilled the word against them because they wronged, and they (will) not speak. |
| 27:86 | | Do not they see that We [We] have made the night that they may rest in it, and the day giving visibility? Indeed, in that surely (are) Signs for a people who believe. |
| 27:87 | | And (the) Day will be blown [in] the trumpet and will be terrified whoever (is) in the heavens and whoever (is) in the earth except whom wills Allah. And all (will) come to Him humbled. |
| 27:88 | | And you see the mountains, thinking them firmly fixed, while they will pass (as the) passing (of) the clouds. (The) Work (of) Allah Who perfected all things. Indeed, He (is) All-Aware of what you do. |
| 27:89 | | Whoever comes with the good, then for him (will be) better than it, and they, from (the) terror (of) that Day (will be) safe. |
| 27:90 | | And whoever comes with the evil, will be cast down their faces in the Fire. "Are you recompensed except (for) what you used (to) do?" |
| 27:91 | | "Only I am commanded that I worship (the) Lord (of) this city, the One Who made it sacred and to Him (belongs) all things. And I am commanded that I be of the Muslims |
| 27:92 | | And that I recite the Quran." And whoever accepts guidance then only he accepts guidance for himself; and whoever goes astray then say, "Only I am of the warners." |
| 27:93 | | And say, "All praise (be) to Allah, He will show you His Signs, and you will recognize them. And not (is) your Lord unaware of what you do." |
