53. An-Najm سُورَةُ النَّجۡمِ
Saheeh InternationalYour companion [Muhammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred
Saheeh InternationalNor does he speak from [his own] inclination
Saheeh InternationalWhile he was in the higher [part of the] horizon
Saheeh InternationalAnd was at a distance of two bow lengths or nearer
Saheeh InternationalAnd he revealed to His Servant what he revealed
Saheeh InternationalThe heart did not lie [about] what it saw
Saheeh InternationalSo will you dispute with him over what he saw
Saheeh InternationalAnd he certainly saw him in another descent
Saheeh InternationalWhen there covered the Lote Tree that which covered [it]
Saheeh InternationalThe sight [of the Prophet] did not swerve, nor did it transgress [its limit]
Saheeh InternationalHe certainly saw of the greatest signs of his Lord
Saheeh InternationalSo have you considered al-Lat and al-'Uzza
Saheeh InternationalAnd Manat, the third - the other one
Saheeh InternationalIs the male for you and for Him the female
Saheeh InternationalThat, then, is an unjust division
Saheeh InternationalThey are not but [mere] names you have named them - you and your forefathers - for which Allah has sent down no authority. They follow not except assumption and what [their] souls desire, and there has already come to them from their Lord guidance
Saheeh InternationalOr is there for man whatever he wishes
Saheeh InternationalRather, to Allah belongs the Hereafter and the first [life]
Saheeh InternationalAnd how many angels there are in the heavens whose intercession will not avail at all except [only] after Allah has permitted [it] to whom He wills and approves
Saheeh InternationalIndeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter name the angels female names
Saheeh InternationalAnd they have thereof no knowledge. They follow not except assumption, and indeed, assumption avails not against the truth at all
Saheeh InternationalSo turn away from whoever turns his back on Our message and desires not except the worldly life
Saheeh InternationalThat is their sum of knowledge. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who strays from His way, and He is most knowing of who is guided
Saheeh InternationalAnd to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth - that He may recompense those who do evil with [the penalty of] what they have done and recompense those who do good with the best [reward]
Saheeh InternationalThose who avoid the major sins and immoralities, only [committing] slight ones. Indeed, your Lord is vast in forgiveness. He was most knowing of you when He produced you from the earth and when you were fetuses in the wombs of your mothers. So do not claim yourselves to be pure; He is most knowing of who fears Him
Saheeh InternationalHave you seen the one who turned away
Saheeh InternationalAnd gave a little and [then] refrained
Saheeh InternationalDoes he have knowledge of the unseen, so he sees
Saheeh InternationalOr has he not been informed of what was in the scriptures of Moses
Saheeh InternationalAnd [of] Abraham, who fulfilled [his obligations]
Saheeh InternationalThat no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another
Saheeh InternationalAnd that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives
Saheeh InternationalAnd that his effort is going to be seen
Saheeh InternationalThen he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense
Saheeh InternationalAnd that to your Lord is the finality
Saheeh InternationalAnd that it is He who makes [one] laugh and weep
Saheeh InternationalAnd that it is He who causes death and gives life
Saheeh InternationalAnd that He creates the two mates - the male and female
Saheeh InternationalAnd that [incumbent] upon Him is the next creation
Saheeh InternationalAnd that it is He who enriches and suffices
Saheeh InternationalAnd that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius
Saheeh InternationalAnd that He destroyed the first [people of] 'Aad
Saheeh InternationalAnd Thamud - and He did not spare [them]
Saheeh InternationalAnd the people of Noah before. Indeed, it was they who were [even] more unjust and oppressing
Saheeh InternationalAnd the overturned towns He hurled down
Saheeh InternationalAnd covered them by that which He covered
Saheeh InternationalThen which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt
Saheeh InternationalThis [Prophet] is a warner like the former warners
Saheeh InternationalThe Approaching Day has approached
Saheeh InternationalOf it, [from those] besides Allah, there is no remover
Saheeh InternationalThen at this statement do you wonder
Saheeh InternationalWhile you are proudly sporting
Saheeh InternationalSo prostrate to Allah and worship [Him]
