Quran 53, An-Najm (The Star) ⓘ
53:1By the Star when it setteth,
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالنَّجْمِ إِذَا هَوَى
53:2Your comrade erreth not, nor is deceived;
مَا ضَلَّ صَاحِبُكُمْ وَمَا غَوَى
53:3Nor doth he speak of (his own) desire.
وَمَا يَنْطِقُ عَنِ الْهَوَى
53:4It is naught save an inspiration that is inspired,
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحْيٌ يُوحَى
53:5Which one of mighty powers hath taught him,
عَلَّمَهُ شَدِيدُ الْقُوَى
53:6One vigorous; and he grew clear to view
ذُو مِرَّةٍ فَاسْتَوَى
53:7When he was on the uppermost horizon.
وَهُوَ بِالْأُفُقِ الْأَعْلَى
53:8Then he drew nigh and came down
ثُمَّ دَنَا فَتَدَلَّى
53:9Till he was (distant) two bows' length or even nearer,
فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى
53:10And He revealed unto His slave that which He revealed.
فَأَوْحَى إِلَى عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَى
53:11The heart lied not (in seeing) what it saw.
مَا كَذَبَ الْفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَى
53:12Will ye then dispute with him concerning what he seeth?
أَفَتُمَارُونَهُ عَلَى مَا يَرَى
53:13And verily he saw him yet another time
وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ نَزْلَةً أُخْرَى
53:14By the lote-tree of the utmost boundary,
عِنْدَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى
53:15Nigh unto which is the Garden of Abode.
عِنْدَهَا جَنَّةُ الْمَأْوَى
53:16When that which shroudeth did enshroud the lote-tree,
إِذْ يَغْشَى السِّدْرَةَ مَا يَغْشَى
53:17The eye turned not aside nor yet was overbold.
مَا زَاغَ الْبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغَى
53:18Verily he saw one of the greater revelations of his Lord.
لَقَدْ رَأَى مِنْ آيَاتِ رَبِّهِ الْكُبْرَى
53:19Have ye thought upon Al-Lat and Al-'Uzza
أَفَرَأَيْتُمُ اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّى
53:20And Manat, the third, the other?
وَمَنَاةَ الثَّالِثَةَ الْأُخْرَى
53:21Are yours the males and His the females?
أَلَكُمُ الذَّكَرُ وَلَهُ الْأُنْثَى
53:22That indeed were an unfair division!
تِلْكَ إِذًا قِسْمَةٌ ضِيزَى
53:23They are but names which ye have named, ye and your fathers, for which Allah hath revealed no warrant. They follow but a guess and that which (they) themselves desire. And now the guidance from their Lord hath come unto them.
إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا أَسْمَاءٌ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَا أَنْتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمْ مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِنْ سُلْطَانٍ إِنْ يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهْوَى الْأَنْفُسُ وَلَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ مِنْ رَبِّهِمُ الْهُدَى
53:24Or shall man have what he coveteth?
أَمْ لِلْإِنْسَانِ مَا تَمَنَّى
53:25But unto Allah belongeth the after (life), and the former.
فَلِلَّهِ الْآخِرَةُ وَالْأُولَى
53:26And how many angels are in the heavens whose intercession availeth naught save after Allah giveth leave to whom He chooseth and accepteth.
وَكَمْ مِنْ مَلَكٍ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ لَا تُغْنِي شَفَاعَتُهُمْ شَيْئًا إِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَرْضَى
53:27Lo! it is those who disbelieve in the Hereafter who name the angels with the names of females.
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآخِرَةِ لَيُسَمُّونَ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَسْمِيَةَ الْأُنْثَى
53:28And they have no knowledge thereof. They follow but a guess, and lo! a guess can never take the place of the truth.
وَمَا لَهُمْ بِهِ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِنْ يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَإِنَّ الظَّنَّ لَا يُغْنِي مِنَ الْحَقِّ شَيْئًا
53:29Then withdraw (O Muhammad) from him who fleeth from Our remembrance and desireth but the life of the world.
فَأَعْرِضْ عَنْ مَنْ تَوَلَّى عَنْ ذِكْرِنَا وَلَمْ يُرِدْ إِلَّا الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا
53:30Such is their sum of knowledge. Lo! thy Lord is Best Aware of him who strayeth, and He is Best Aware of him whom goeth right.
ذَلِكَ مَبْلَغُهُمْ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ ضَلَّ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنِ اهْتَدَى
53:31And unto Allah belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth, that He may reward those who do evil with that which they have done, and reward those who do good with goodness.
وَلِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ لِيَجْزِيَ الَّذِينَ أَسَاءُوا بِمَا عَمِلُوا وَيَجْزِيَ الَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا بِالْحُسْنَى
53:32Those who avoid enormities of sin and abominations, save the unwilled offences - (for them) lo! thy Lord is of vast mercy. He is Best Aware of you (from the time) when He created you from the earth, and when ye were hidden in the bellies of your mothers. Therefor ascribe not purity unto yourselves. He is Best Aware of him who wardeth off (evil).
الَّذِينَ يَجْتَنِبُونَ كَبَائِرَ الْإِثْمِ وَالْفَوَاحِشَ إِلَّا اللَّمَمَ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ وَاسِعُ الْمَغْفِرَةِ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِكُمْ إِذْ أَنْشَأَكُمْ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ وَإِذْ أَنْتُمْ أَجِنَّةٌ فِي بُطُونِ أُمَّهَاتِكُمْ فَلَا تُزَكُّوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنِ اتَّقَى
53:33Didst thou (O Muhammad) observe him who turned away,
أَفَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي تَوَلَّى
53:34And gave a little, then was grudging?
وَأَعْطَى قَلِيلًا وَأَكْدَى
53:35Hath he knowledge of the Unseen so that he seeth?
أَعِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ الْغَيْبِ فَهُوَ يَرَى
53:36Or hath he not had news of what is in the books of Moses
أَمْ لَمْ يُنَبَّأْ بِمَا فِي صُحُفِ مُوسَى
53:37And Abraham who paid his debt:
وَإِبْرَاهِيمَ الَّذِي وَفَّى
53:38That no laden one shall bear another's load,
أَلَّا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَى
53:39And that man hath only that for which he maketh effort,
وَأَنْ لَيْسَ لِلْإِنْسَانِ إِلَّا مَا سَعَى
53:40And that his effort will be seen.
وَأَنَّ سَعْيَهُ سَوْفَ يُرَى
53:41And afterward he will be repaid for it with fullest payment;
ثُمَّ يُجْزَاهُ الْجَزَاءَ الْأَوْفَى
53:42And that thy Lord, He is the goal;
وَأَنَّ إِلَى رَبِّكَ الْمُنْتَهَى
53:43And that He it is who maketh laugh, and maketh weep,
وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَضْحَكَ وَأَبْكَى
53:44And that He it is Who giveth death and giveth life;
وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَمَاتَ وَأَحْيَا
53:45And that He createth the two spouses, the male and the female,
وَأَنَّهُ خَلَقَ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنْثَى
53:46From a drop (of seed) when it is poured forth;
مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ إِذَا تُمْنَى
53:47And that He hath ordained the second bringing forth;
وَأَنَّ عَلَيْهِ النَّشْأَةَ الْأُخْرَى
53:48And that He it is Who enricheth and contenteth;
وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَغْنَى وَأَقْنَى
53:49And that He it is Who is the Lord of Sirius;
وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ رَبُّ الشِّعْرَى
53:50And that He destroyed the former (tribe of) A'ad,
وَأَنَّهُ أَهْلَكَ عَادًا الْأُولَى
53:51And (the tribe of) Thamud He spared not;
وَثَمُودَ فَمَا أَبْقَى
53:52And the folk of Noah aforetime, Lo! they were more unjust and more rebellious;
وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِنْ قَبْلُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا هُمْ أَظْلَمَ وَأَطْغَى
53:53And Al-Mu'tafikah He destroyed
وَالْمُؤْتَفِكَةَ أَهْوَى
53:54So that there covered them that which did cover.
فَغَشَّاهَا مَا غَشَّى
53:55Concerning which then, of the bounties of thy Lord, canst thou dispute?
فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكَ تَتَمَارَى
53:56This is a warner of the warners of old.
هَذَا نَذِيرٌ مِنَ النُّذُرِ الْأُولَى
53:57The threatened Hour is nigh.
أَزِفَتِ الْآزِفَةُ
53:58None beside Allah can disclose it.
لَيْسَ لَهَا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ كَاشِفَةٌ
53:59Marvel ye then at this statement,
أَفَمِنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ تَعْجَبُونَ
53:60And laugh and not weep,
وَتَضْحَكُونَ وَلَا تَبْكُونَ
53:61While ye amuse yourselves?
وَأَنْتُمْ سَامِدُونَ
53:62Rather prostrate yourselves before Allah and serve Him.
فَاسْجُدُوا لِلَّهِ وَاعْبُدُوا
