قالَ رَبِّ اغفِر لي وَهَب لي مُلكًا لا يَنبَغي لِأَحَدٍ مِن بَعدي ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الوَهّابُ
He said, "My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as will not belong to anyone after me. Indeed, You are the Bestower."
فَسَخَّرنا لَهُ الرّيحَ تَجري بِأَمرِهِ رُخاءً حَيثُ أَصابَ
So We subjected to him the wind blowing by his command, gently, wherever he directed,
وَالشَّياطينَ كُلَّ بَنّاءٍ وَغَوّاصٍ
And [also] the devils [of jinn] - every builder and diver
وَآخَرينَ مُقَرَّنينَ فِي الأَصفادِ
And others bound together in shackles.
هـٰذا عَطاؤُنا فَامنُن أَو أَمسِك بِغَيرِ حِسابٍ
[We said], "This is Our gift, so grant or withhold without account."
وَإِنَّ لَهُ عِندَنا لَزُلفىٰ وَحُسنَ مَآبٍ
And indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return.
وَاذكُر عَبدَنا أَيّوبَ إِذ نادىٰ رَبَّهُ أَنّي مَسَّنِيَ الشَّيطانُ بِنُصبٍ وَعَذابٍ
And remember Our servant Job, when he called to his Lord, "Indeed, Satan has touched me with hardship and torment."
اركُض بِرِجلِكَ ۖ هـٰذا مُغتَسَلٌ بارِدٌ وَشَرابٌ
[So he was told], "Strike [the ground] with your foot; this is a [spring for] a cool bath and drink."
وَوَهَبنا لَهُ أَهلَهُ وَمِثلَهُم مَعَهُم رَحمَةً مِنّا وَذِكرىٰ لِأُولِي الأَلبابِ
And We granted him his family and a like [number] with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for those of understanding.
وَخُذ بِيَدِكَ ضِغثًا فَاضرِب بِهِ وَلا تَحنَث ۗ إِنّا وَجَدناهُ صابِرًا ۚ نِعمَ العَبدُ ۖ إِنَّهُ أَوّابٌ
[We said], "And take in your hand a bunch [of grass] and strike with it and do not break your oath." Indeed, We found him patient, an excellent servant. Indeed, he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allah].
وَاذكُر عِبادَنا إِبراهيمَ وَإِسحاقَ وَيَعقوبَ أُولِي الأَيدي وَالأَبصارِ
And remember Our servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - those of strength and [religious] vision.
