Ya Sin (Ya Sin, Ya-Seen) at IslamAwakened.com

36:1 Ya Sin.

36:2 By the wise Qur´an.

36:3 You are one of the messengers.

36:4 On a straight path.

36:5 A revelation from the mighty and merciful.

36:6 To warn people whose fathers had not been warned and they were careless.

36:7 The word has already come to pass against most of them, so they don´t believe.

36:8 For We have placed cuffs around their necks and they reach up to their chins so they are stiffened.

36:9 And We placed a barrier before them and a barrier behind them and sealed them in, so they don´t see.

36:10 It makes no difference to them whether you warn them or warn them not, they will not believe.

36:11 For you warn only who follows the reminder and fears the Merciful in secret, so give him good news of forgiveness and a generous reward.

36:12 For We revive the dead and record what they have sent ahead and their traces, and We list everything in a clear ledger.

36:13 And coin for them the likeness of the inhabitants of the town when the messengers came to it.

36:14 When We sent two to them but they denied them, so We added a third, and they said: we have been sent to you.

36:15 They said, you are only humans like us, and the Merciful has not sent anything, for you are only lying.

36:16 They said: our Lord knows that we were indeed sent to you.

36:17 And our duty is only to convey clearly.

36:18 They said: we see a bad omen in you, if you do not stop we will stone you and a painful punishment from us will afflict you.

36:19 They said: your bad omen is with you once you have been reminded, but you are wasteful people.

36:20 And a man came running from the far end of the town saying: oh my people, follow the messengers.

36:21 Follow those who do not ask you for a reward and are guided.

36:22 And how should I not serve the One who originated me and you return to Him?

36:23 Should I take gods besides Him? If the Merciful wants harm for me, their intercession does not benefit me the least and they don´t save me.

36:24 I would then be in clear error.

36:25 I surely believe in your Lord, so listen to me.

36:26 He was told: enter the garden (of paradise); he said: if only my people knew.

36:27 How my Lord has forgiven me and made me of the honoured.

36:28 And We did not send soldiers from the sky against his people after him, and We never send them.

36:29 For it was only a single scream and they were extinct.

36:30 What loss for My servants: never does a messenger reach them but they make fun of him.

36:31 Do they not see how many towns We destroyed before them and that they do not return to them?

36:32 And that they will altogether be presented before Us?

36:33 And a sign for them is the dead earth. We revive it and grow from it seed crops from which they eat.

36:34 And We place gardens of palm trees and grapes on it and make springs gush out from it.

36:35 So that they eat from its fruit whilst they did not produce it themselves. Will they not be grateful?

36:36 Glorified is He who created all pairs of that which the earth grows and of themselves and of what they do not (yet) know.

36:37 And a sign for them is the night. We remove the day from it and they are in darkness.

36:38 And the sun travels to its destination, that is the arrangement of the mighty and knowing.

36:39 And for the moon We have arranged phases until it returns like a withered palm leaf.

36:40 It is not befitting for the sun to overtake the moon nor for the night to precede the day, and each travels in an orbit.

36:41 And a sign for them is that We carried their descendants on the laden ship.

36:42 And created something similar for them which they board.

36:43 And if We please, We drown them, and there will be no one to call for help and they will not be saved.

36:44 Except by a mercy from Us and as a provision for a while.

36:45 And when they are told: beware of what is ahead of you and what is behind you so that you find mercy;

36:46 And whenever one of the signs of their Lord comes to them, they tend to turn away from it.

36:47 And when they are told: spend of what Allah has provided you with, those who reject (the truth) say to those who believe: should we feed whom Allah would have fed if He pleased? You are surely in clear error.

36:48 And they say: when will this promise happen if you are truthful?

36:49 They are only waiting for a single scream to overtake them, yet they argue.

36:50 Then they cannot raise a warning nor return to their families.

36:51 And the horn will be blown and they will stream to their Lord from the graves.

36:52 They will say: woe to us, who has dispatched us from our resting place? This is what the Merciful did promise and the messengers were truthful.

36:53 For it was only a single scream and they all are presented before Us.

36:54 Then today no soul will be wronged the least and you will only be rewarded for what you did.

36:55 The inhabitants of the garden will be happily busy today.

36:56 They and their partners will be reclining on couches in the shade.

36:57 They will have fruit there and have whatever they ask for.

36:58 Peace offered by a merciful Lord.

36:59 And keep away today oh sinners.

36:60 Did I not take your promise, oh children of Adam, not to serve the devil, for he is a clear enemy to you?

36:61 And to serve Me, that is a straight path?

36:62 And he had already led astray a large group of you, so did you not understand?

36:63 This is hell which you were promised.

36:64 Enter it today on account of having rejected (the truth).

36:65 Today We seal their mouths, and their hands will talk to Us and their feet will give evidence of what they used to commit.

36:66 And if We pleased We would have obliterated their eyesight, so they search for a path but how can they see?

36:67 And if We pleased We would have frozen them on the spot, so they could neither go forward nor back.

36:68 And whomever We give long life, We reverse his development, so do they not understand?

36:69 And We did not teach him poetry, nor would it befit him, for it is only a reminder and a clear reading (Qur´an).

36:70 To warn whoever is alive and so that the word comes to pass against those who reject (the truth).

36:71 Do they not consider that We created for them from Our handiwork cattle, so they own it?

36:72 And We made them submissive to them, and they are carried by them and they eat from them.

36:73 And they have benefits and drink from the, so are they not grateful?

36:74 And they adopt gods besides Allah so they would help them.

36:75 They cannot help them but they are ever ready to defend them.

36:76 So do not worry about what they say, for We know what they conceal and what they disclose.

36:77 Does man not see that We created him from a sperm, then he argues openly.

36:78 And he coins a likeness for Us and forgets his creation; he says: who will revive the bones when they decayed?

36:79 Say: the One who brought them into existence the first time will revive them, and He knows all creation.

36:80 The One who gave you fire from a green tree, so that you kindle with it.

36:81 Is not the One who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of them? For sure, He is the knowing creator.

36:82 For His command whenever He wants something is to say to it: Be, then it is.

36:83 So glorified is the One in whose hand rests the kingdom of everything and to whom you will return.
