فَكَذَّبوهُ فَأَخَذَهُم عَذابُ يَومِ الظُّلَّةِ ۚ إِنَّهُ كانَ عَذابَ يَومٍ عَظيمٍ
And they denied him, so the punishment of the day of the black cloud seized them. Indeed, it was the punishment of a terrible day.
إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَما كانَ أَكثَرُهُم مُؤمِنينَ
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
وَإِنَّهُ لَتَنزيلُ رَبِّ العالَمينَ
And indeed, the Qur'an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds.
نَزَلَ بِهِ الرّوحُ الأَمينُ
The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down
عَلىٰ قَلبِكَ لِتَكونَ مِنَ المُنذِرينَ
Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] - that you may be of the warners -
بِلِسانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ مُبينٍ
In a clear Arabic language.
وَإِنَّهُ لَفي زُبُرِ الأَوَّلينَ
And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples.
أَوَلَم يَكُن لَهُم آيَةً أَن يَعلَمَهُ عُلَماءُ بَني إِسرائيلَ
And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel?
وَلَو نَزَّلناهُ عَلىٰ بَعضِ الأَعجَمينَ
And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners
فَقَرَأَهُ عَلَيهِم ما كانوا بِهِ مُؤمِنينَ
And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it.
