وَقُل رَبِّ أَنزِلني مُنزَلًا مُبارَكًا وَأَنتَ خَيرُ المُنزِلينَ
And say, 'My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us].' "
إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآياتٍ وَإِن كُنّا لَمُبتَلينَ
Indeed in that are signs, and indeed, We are ever testing [Our servants].
ثُمَّ أَنشَأنا مِن بَعدِهِم قَرنًا آخَرينَ
Then We produced after them a generation of others.
فَأَرسَلنا فيهِم رَسولًا مِنهُم أَنِ اعبُدُوا اللَّهَ ما لَكُم مِن إِلـٰهٍ غَيرُهُ ۖ أَفَلا تَتَّقونَ
And We sent among them a messenger from themselves, [saying], "Worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"
وَقالَ المَلَأُ مِن قَومِهِ الَّذينَ كَفَروا وَكَذَّبوا بِلِقاءِ الآخِرَةِ وَأَترَفناهُم فِي الحَياةِ الدُّنيا ما هـٰذا إِلّا بَشَرٌ مِثلُكُم يَأكُلُ مِمّا تَأكُلونَ مِنهُ وَيَشرَبُ مِمّا تَشرَبونَ
And 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.
وَلَئِن أَطَعتُم بَشَرًا مِثلَكُم إِنَّكُم إِذًا لَخاسِرونَ
And if you should obey a man like yourselves, indeed, you would then be losers.
أَيَعِدُكُم أَنَّكُم إِذا مِتُّم وَكُنتُم تُرابًا وَعِظامًا أَنَّكُم مُخرَجونَ
Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones that you will be brought forth [once more]?
هَيهاتَ هَيهاتَ لِما توعَدونَ
How far, how far, is that which you are promised.
إِن هِيَ إِلّا حَياتُنَا الدُّنيا نَموتُ وَنَحيا وَما نَحنُ بِمَبعوثينَ
Life is not but our worldly life - we die and live, but we will not be resurrected.
إِن هُوَ إِلّا رَجُلٌ افتَرىٰ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا وَما نَحنُ لَهُ بِمُؤمِنينَ
He is not but a man who has invented a lie about Allah, and we will not believe him."
قالَ رَبِّ انصُرني بِما كَذَّبونِ
He said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."
