اللَّهُ لا إِلـٰهَ إِلّا هُوَ ۖ لَهُ الأَسماءُ الحُسنىٰ

Allah - there is no deity except Him. To Him belong the best names.

وَهَل أَتاكَ حَديثُ موسىٰ

And has the story of Moses reached you? -

إِذ رَأىٰ نارًا فَقالَ لِأَهلِهِ امكُثوا إِنّي آنَستُ نارًا لَعَلّي آتيكُم مِنها بِقَبَسٍ أَو أَجِدُ عَلَى النّارِ هُدًى

When he saw a fire and said to his family, "Stay here; indeed, I have perceived a fire; perhaps I can bring you a torch or find at the fire some guidance."

فَلَمّا أَتاها نودِيَ يا موسىٰ

And when he came to it, he was called, "O Moses,

إِنّي أَنا رَبُّكَ فَاخلَع نَعلَيكَ ۖ إِنَّكَ بِالوادِ المُقَدَّسِ طُوًى

Indeed, I am your Lord, so remove your sandals. Indeed, you are in the sacred valley of Tuwa.

إِنَّني أَنَا اللَّهُ لا إِلـٰهَ إِلّا أَنا فَاعبُدني وَأَقِمِ الصَّلاةَ لِذِكري

Indeed, I am Allah. There is no deity except Me, so worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance.

إِنَّ السّاعَةَ آتِيَةٌ أَكادُ أُخفيها لِتُجزىٰ كُلُّ نَفسٍ بِما تَسعىٰ

Indeed, the Hour is coming - I almost conceal it - so that every soul may be recompensed according to that for which it strives.

فَلا يَصُدَّنَّكَ عَنها مَن لا يُؤمِنُ بِها وَاتَّبَعَ هَواهُ فَتَردىٰ

So do not let one avert you from it who does not believe in it and follows his desire, for you [then] would perish.

وَما تِلكَ بِيَمينِكَ يا موسىٰ

And what is that in your right hand, O Moses?"

قالَ هِيَ عَصايَ أَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَيها وَأَهُشُّ بِها عَلىٰ غَنَمي وَلِيَ فيها مَآرِبُ أُخرىٰ

He said, "It is my staff; I lean upon it, and I bring down leaves for my sheep and I have therein other uses."
