23. Al-Muminoon سُورَةُ المُؤۡمِنُونَ
Saheeh InternationalCertainly will the believers have succeeded
Saheeh InternationalThey who are during their prayer humbly submissive
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who turn away from ill speech
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who are observant of zakah
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who guard their private parts
Saheeh InternationalExcept from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed
Saheeh InternationalBut whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who carefully maintain their prayers
Saheeh InternationalThose are the inheritors
Saheeh InternationalWho will inherit al-Firdaus. They will abide therein eternally
Saheeh InternationalAnd certainly did We create man from an extract of clay
Saheeh InternationalThen We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging
Saheeh InternationalThen We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah, the best of creators
Saheeh InternationalThen indeed, after that you are to die
Saheeh InternationalThen indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, will be resurrected
Saheeh InternationalAnd We have created above you seven layered heavens, and never have We been of [Our] creation unaware
Saheeh InternationalAnd We have sent down rain from the sky in a measured amount and settled it in the earth. And indeed, We are Able to take it away
Saheeh InternationalAnd We brought forth for you thereby gardens of palm trees and grapevines in which for you are abundant fruits and from which you eat
Saheeh InternationalAnd [We brought forth] a tree issuing from Mount Sinai which produces oil and food for those who eat
Saheeh InternationalAnd indeed, for you in livestock is a lesson. We give you drink from that which is in their bellies, and for you in them are numerous benefits, and from them you eat
Saheeh InternationalAnd upon them and on ships you are carried
Saheeh InternationalAnd We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him
Saheeh InternationalBut the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a man like yourselves who wishes to take precedence over you; and if Allah had willed [to send a messenger], He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers
Saheeh InternationalHe is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait concerning him for a time
Saheeh International[Noah] said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me
Saheeh InternationalSo We inspired to him, "Construct the ship under Our observation, and Our inspiration, and when Our command comes and the oven overflows, put into the ship from each [creature] two mates and your family, except those for whom the decree [of destruction] has proceeded. And do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are to be drowned
Saheeh InternationalAnd when you have boarded the ship, you and those with you, then say, 'Praise to Allah who has saved us from the wrongdoing people
Saheeh InternationalAnd say, 'My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us]
Saheeh InternationalIndeed in that are signs, and indeed, We are ever testing [Our servants]
Saheeh InternationalThen We produced after them a generation of others
Saheeh InternationalAnd We sent among them a messenger from themselves, [saying], "Worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him
Saheeh InternationalAnd the eminent among his people who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter while We had given them luxury in the worldly life said, "This is not but a man like yourselves. He eats of that from which you eat and drinks of what you drink
Saheeh InternationalAnd if you should obey a man like yourselves, indeed, you would then be losers
Saheeh InternationalDoes he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones that you will be brought forth [once more]
Saheeh InternationalHow far, how far, is that which you are promised
Saheeh InternationalLife is not but our worldly life - we die and live, but we will not be resurrected
Saheeh InternationalHe is not but a man who has invented a lie about Allah, and we will not believe him
Saheeh InternationalHe said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me
Saheeh International[Allah] said, "After a little, they will surely become regretful
Saheeh InternationalSo the shriek seized them in truth, and We made them as [plant] stubble. Then away with the wrongdoing people
Saheeh InternationalThen We produced after them other generations
Saheeh InternationalNo nation will precede its time [of termination], nor will they remain [thereafter]
Saheeh InternationalThen We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation its messenger, they denied him, so We made them follow one another [to destruction], and We made them narrations. So away with a people who do not believe
Saheeh InternationalThen We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our signs and a clear authority
Saheeh InternationalTo Pharaoh and his establishment, but they were arrogant and were a haughty people
Saheeh InternationalThey said, "Should we believe two men like ourselves while their people are for us in servitude
Saheeh InternationalSo they denied them and were of those destroyed
Saheeh InternationalAnd We certainly gave Moses the Scripture that perhaps they would be guided
Saheeh InternationalAnd We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign and sheltered them within a high ground having level [areas] and flowing water
Saheeh International[Allah said], "O messengers, eat from the good foods and work righteousness. Indeed, I, of what you do, am Knowing
Saheeh InternationalAnd indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me
Saheeh InternationalBut the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing
Saheeh InternationalSo leave them in their confusion for a time
Saheeh InternationalDo they think that what We extend to them of wealth and children
Saheeh InternationalIs [because] We hasten for them good things? Rather, they do not perceive
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, they who are apprehensive from fear of their Lord
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who believe in the signs of their Lord
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who do not associate anything with their Lord
Saheeh InternationalAnd they who give what they give while their hearts are fearful because they will be returning to their Lord
Saheeh InternationalIt is those who hasten to good deeds, and they outstrip [others] therein
Saheeh InternationalAnd We charge no soul except [with that within] its capacity, and with Us is a record which speaks with truth; and they will not be wronged
Saheeh InternationalBut their hearts are covered with confusion over this, and they have [evil] deeds besides disbelief which they are doing
Saheeh InternationalUntil when We seize their affluent ones with punishment, at once they are crying [to Allah] for help
Saheeh InternationalDo not cry out today. Indeed, by Us you will not be helped
Saheeh InternationalMy verses had already been recited to you, but you were turning back on your heels
Saheeh InternationalIn arrogance regarding it, conversing by night, speaking evil
Saheeh InternationalThen have they not reflected over the Qur'an, or has there come to them that which had not come to their forefathers
Saheeh InternationalOr did they not know their Messenger, so they are toward him disacknowledging
Saheeh InternationalOr do they say, "In him is madness?" Rather, he brought them the truth, but most of them, to the truth, are averse
Saheeh InternationalBut if the Truth had followed their inclinations, the heavens and the earth and whoever is in them would have been ruined. Rather, We have brought them their message, but they, from their message, are turning away
Saheeh InternationalOr do you, [O Muhammad], ask them for payment? But the reward of your Lord is best, and He is the best of providers
Saheeh InternationalAnd indeed, you invite them to a straight path
Saheeh InternationalBut indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter are deviating from the path
Saheeh InternationalAnd even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly
Saheeh InternationalAnd We had gripped them with suffering [as a warning], but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, [and will continue thus]
Saheeh InternationalUntil when We have opened before them a door of severe punishment, immediately they will be therein in despair
Saheeh InternationalAnd it is He who produced for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful
Saheeh InternationalAnd it is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered
Saheeh InternationalAnd it is He who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of the night and the day. Then will you not reason
Saheeh InternationalRather, they say like what the former peoples said
Saheeh InternationalThey said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected
Saheeh InternationalWe have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples
Saheeh InternationalSay, [O Muhammad], "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know
Saheeh InternationalThey will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then will you not remember
Saheeh InternationalSay, "Who is Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Great Throne
Saheeh InternationalThey will say, "[They belong] to Allah." Say, "Then will you not fear Him
Saheeh InternationalSay, "In whose hand is the realm of all things - and He protects while none can protect against Him - if you should know
Saheeh InternationalThey will say, "[All belongs] to Allah." Say, "Then how are you deluded
Saheeh InternationalRather, We have brought them the truth, and indeed they are liars
Saheeh InternationalAllah has not taken any son, nor has there ever been with Him any deity. [If there had been], then each deity would have taken what it created, and some of them would have sought to overcome others. Exalted is Allah above what they describe [concerning Him]
Saheeh International[He is] Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, so high is He above what they associate [with Him]
Saheeh InternationalSay, [O Muhammad], "My Lord, if You should show me that which they are promised
Saheeh InternationalMy Lord, then do not place me among the wrongdoing people
Saheeh InternationalAnd indeed, We are able to show you what We have promised them
Saheeh InternationalRepel, by [means of] what is best, [their] evil. We are most knowing of what they describe
Saheeh InternationalAnd say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils
Saheeh InternationalAnd I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me
Saheeh International[For such is the state of the disbelievers], until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back
Saheeh InternationalThat I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected
Saheeh InternationalSo when the Horn is blown, no relationship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask about one another
Saheeh InternationalAnd those whose scales are heavy [with good deeds] - it is they who are the successful
Saheeh InternationalBut those whose scales are light - those are the ones who have lost their souls, [being] in Hell, abiding eternally
Saheeh InternationalThe Fire will sear their faces, and they therein will have taut smiles
Saheeh International[It will be said]. "Were not My verses recited to you and you used to deny them
Saheeh InternationalThey will say, "Our Lord, our wretchedness overcame us, and we were a people astray
Saheeh InternationalOur Lord, remove us from it, and if we were to return [to evil], we would indeed be wrongdoers
Saheeh InternationalHe will say, "Remain despised therein and do not speak to Me
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, there was a party of My servants who said, 'Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and You are the best of the merciful
Saheeh InternationalBut you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My remembrance, and you used to laugh at them
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, I have rewarded them this Day for their patient endurance - that they are the attainers [of success]
Saheeh International[Allah] will say, "How long did you remain on earth in number of years
Saheeh InternationalThey will say, "We remained a day or part of a day; ask those who enumerate
Saheeh InternationalHe will say, "You stayed not but a little - if only you had known
Saheeh InternationalThen did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned
Saheeh InternationalSo exalted is Allah, the Sovereign, the Truth; there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne
Saheeh InternationalAnd whoever invokes besides Allah another deity for which he has no proof - then his account is only with his Lord. Indeed, the disbelievers will not succeed
Saheeh InternationalAnd, [O Muhammad], say, "My Lord, forgive and have mercy, and You are the best of the merciful
