وَهُوَ اللَّهُ فِي السَّماواتِ وَفِي الأَرضِ ۖ يَعلَمُ سِرَّكُم وَجَهرَكُم وَيَعلَمُ ما تَكسِبونَ

And He is Allah, [the only deity] in the heavens and the earth. He knows your secret and what you make public, and He knows that which you earn.

وَما تَأتيهِم مِن آيَةٍ مِن آياتِ رَبِّهِم إِلّا كانوا عَنها مُعرِضينَ

And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they turn away therefrom.

فَقَد كَذَّبوا بِالحَقِّ لَمّا جاءَهُم ۖ فَسَوفَ يَأتيهِم أَنباءُ ما كانوا بِهِ يَستَهزِئونَ

For they had denied the truth when it came to them, but there is going to reach them the news of what they used to ridicule.

أَلَم يَرَوا كَم أَهلَكنا مِن قَبلِهِم مِن قَرنٍ مَكَّنّاهُم فِي الأَرضِ ما لَم نُمَكِّن لَكُم وَأَرسَلنَا السَّماءَ عَلَيهِم مِدرارًا وَجَعَلنَا الأَنهارَ تَجري مِن تَحتِهِم فَأَهلَكناهُم بِذُنوبِهِم وَأَنشَأنا مِن بَعدِهِم قَرنًا آخَرينَ

Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them which We had established upon the earth as We have not established you? And We sent [rain from] the sky upon them in showers and made rivers flow beneath them; then We destroyed them for their sins and brought forth after them a generation of others.

وَلَو نَزَّلنا عَلَيكَ كِتابًا في قِرطاسٍ فَلَمَسوهُ بِأَيديهِم لَقالَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا إِن هـٰذا إِلّا سِحرٌ مُبينٌ

And even if We had sent down to you, [O Muhammad], a written scripture on a page and they touched it with their hands, the disbelievers would say, "This is not but obvious magic."

وَلَو جَعَلناهُ مَلَكًا لَجَعَلناهُ رَجُلًا وَلَلَبَسنا عَلَيهِم ما يَلبِسونَ

And if We had made him an angel, We would have made him [appear as] a man, and We would have covered them with that in which they cover themselves.

وَلَقَدِ استُهزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِن قَبلِكَ فَحاقَ بِالَّذينَ سَخِروا مِنهُم ما كانوا بِهِ يَستَهزِئونَ

And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by that which they used to ridicule.

قُل سيروا فِي الأَرضِ ثُمَّ انظُروا كَيفَ كانَ عاقِبَةُ المُكَذِّبينَ

Say, "Travel through the land; then observe how was the end of the deniers."

قُل لِمَن ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۖ قُل لِلَّهِ ۚ كَتَبَ عَلىٰ نَفسِهِ الرَّحمَةَ ۚ لَيَجمَعَنَّكُم إِلىٰ يَومِ القِيامَةِ لا رَيبَ فيهِ ۚ الَّذينَ خَسِروا أَنفُسَهُم فَهُم لا يُؤمِنونَ

Say, "To whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth?" Say, "To Allah." He has decreed upon Himself mercy. He will surely assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt. Those who will lose themselves [that Day] do not believe.

وَلَهُ ما سَكَنَ فِي اللَّيلِ وَالنَّهارِ ۚ وَهُوَ السَّميعُ العَليمُ

And to Him belongs that which reposes by night and by day, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
