| | Abdul Majid Daryabadi rendition of Surah The Jinn(al-Jinn)
--- |
|---|
| 72:1 | | Say thou: it hath been revealed Unto me that a company of the Jinn listened, and said, verily we have listened to a Recitation wondrous |
| 72:2 | | Guiding Unto rectitude; wherefore we have believed therein, and we shall by no means associate with our Lord anyone |
| 72:3 | | And He - exalted be the majesty of our Lord!-hath taken neither a spouse nor a son |
| 72:4 | | And the foolish among us were wont to forge lie against Allah exceedingly |
| 72:5 | | And verily we! we had imagined that humankind and Jinn would never forge against Allah a lie |
| 72:6 | | And persons among humankind have been seeking refuge with persons of the Jinn, so that they increased them in evil disposition |
| 72:7 | | And indeed they imagined, even as ye imagined, that Allah will not raise any one |
| 72:8 | | And we sought to reach the heaven; then we found it filled with a strong guard and darting meteors |
| 72:9 | | And we were wont to sit on seats therein to listen; but whosoever listeneth now findeth for him a dartin meteor in wait |
| 72:10 | | And we know not whether evil is boded for those who are on the earth, or whether their Lord intendeth for them a right direction |
| 72:11 | | And of us there are some righteous, and of us are some otherwise; we have been following very diverse |
| 72:12 | | And we known that we cannot frustrate Allah in the earth, nor can we frustrate Him by flight |
| 72:13 | | And when we heard the Message of guidance, we believed therein; and whosoever believeth in his Lord, he shall fear neither diminution nor wrong |
| 72:14 | | And of us some are Muslims, and of us some are deviators. Then whosoever hath embraced Islam - such have endeavoured after a Path of rectitude |
| 72:15 | | And as for the deviators, for Hell they shall be fuel |
| 72:16 | | And had they kept to the path surely We would have watered them with rain plenteous |
| 72:17 | | That We might try them there by. And whosoever turneth aside from the remembrance of his Lord, him He shall thrust into a torment vehement |
| 72:18 | | And the prostrations are for Allah; wherefore call not along with Allah anyone |
| 72:19 | | And when the bondman of Allah stood calling upon Him, they well nigh pressed on him stifling |
| 72:20 | | Say thou: I simply call upon Allah, and I associate not with Him any-one |
| 72:21 | | Say thou: 'verily own not for you power of hurt nor of benefi |
| 72:22 | | Say thou: 'verily none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find beside Him any refuge |
| 72:23 | | Mine is but the publishing from Allah and His messages; and whosoever disobeyeth Allah and His apostle, his portion verily is the Hell-Fire as abiders therein for evermore |
| 72:24 | | They shall go on denying until they; behold that which they are promised wherefore then they shall know who were weaker in protectors and fewer in number |
| 72:25 | | Say thou: know not whather that which ye are promised is nigh, or whether my Lord hath appointed for it a distant term |
| 72:26 | | He is the Knower of the unseen, and He discloseth not His unseen Unto anyone |
| 72:27 | | Save Unto an apostle chosen. And then He causeth to go before him and behind him a guard |
| 72:28 | | That He may know that they have preached the message of their Lord. And He comprehendeth whatever is with them, and He keepeth count of everything numbered |
