قَالُوا۟ ٱبْنُوا۟ لَهُۥ بُنْيَٰنًۭا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِى ٱلْجَحِيمِ97

They said, "Construct for him a furnace and throw him into the burning fire."

As-Saaffaat 37:98

فَأَرَادُوا۟ بِهِۦ كَيْدًۭا فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمُ ٱلْأَسْفَلِينَ98

And they intended for him a plan, but We made them the most debased.

Fa araadoo bihee kaidan faja 'alnaahumul asfaleen

As-Saaffaat 37:99

وَقَالَ إِنِّى ذَاهِبٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّى سَيَهْدِينِ99

And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.

As-Saaffaat 37:101

فَبَشَّرْنَٰهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ حَلِيمٍۢ101

So We gave him good tidings of a forbearing boy.

Fabashsharnaahu bighulaamin haleem

As-Saaffaat 37:102

فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ ٱلسَّعْىَ قَالَ يَٰبُنَىَّ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰ فِى ٱلْمَنَامِ أَنِّىٓ أَذْبَحُكَ فَٱنظُرْ مَاذَا تَرَىٰ ۚ قَالَ يَٰٓأَبَتِ ٱفْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُ ۖ سَتَجِدُنِىٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ102

And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, "O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think." He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast."

Falamma balagha ma'a hus sa'ya qaala yaa buniya inneee araa fil manaami anneee azbahuka fanzur maazaa taraa; qaala yaaa abatif 'al maa tu'maru satajidunee in shaaa'allaahu minas saabireen

As-Saaffaat 37:103

فَلَمَّآ أَسْلَمَا وَتَلَّهُۥ لِلْجَبِينِ103

And when they had both submitted and he put him down upon his forehead,

Falammaaa aslamaa wa tallahoo liljabeen

As-Saaffaat 37:104

وَنَٰدَيْنَٰهُ أَن يَٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ104

We called to him, "O Abraham,

As-Saaffaat 37:105

قَدْ صَدَّقْتَ ٱلرُّءْيَآ ۚ إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ105

You have fulfilled the vision." Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

As-Saaffaat 37:106

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلْبَلَٰٓؤُا۟ ٱلْمُبِينُ106

Indeed, this was the clear trial.

Inna haazaa lahuwal balaaa'ul mubeen

وَبَشَّرْنَٰهُ بِإِسْحَٰقَ نَبِيًّۭا مِّنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ112

And We gave him good tidings of Isaac, a prophet from among the righteous.

Wa bashsharnaahu bi Ishaaqa Nabiyayam minas saaliheen

As-Saaffaat 37:113

وَبَٰرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَىٰٓ إِسْحَٰقَ ۚ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا مُحْسِنٌۭ وَظَالِمٌۭ لِّنَفْسِهِۦ مُبِينٌۭ113

And We blessed him and Isaac. But among their descendants is the doer of good and the clearly unjust to himself.

Wa baaraknaa 'alaihi wa 'alaaa Ishaaq; wa min zurriyya tihimaa muhsinunw wa zaalimul linafshihee mubeen

As-Saaffaat 37:114

As-Saaffaat 37:117

وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُمَا ٱلْكِتَٰبَ ٱلْمُسْتَبِينَ117

And We gave them the explicit Scripture,

As-Saaffaat 37:118

وَهَدَيْنَٰهُمَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ118

And We guided them on the straight path.

إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ124

When he said to his people, "Will you not fear Allah?

Iz qaala liqawmiheee alaa tattaqoon

As-Saaffaat 37:125

أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلًۭا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ ٱلْخَٰلِقِينَ125

Do you call upon Ba'l and leave the best of creators -

As-Saaffaat 37:126

ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ126

إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ128

Except the chosen servants of Allah.

And had he not been of those who exalt Allah,

Falaw laaa annahoo kaana minal musabbiheen

As-Saaffaat 37:144

لَلَبِثَ فِى بَطْنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ144

He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected.

As-Saaffaat 37:147

وَأَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِا۟ئَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ147

And We sent him to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more.

As-Saaffaat 37:148

فَـَٔامَنُوا۟ فَمَتَّعْنَٰهُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍۢ148

And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.

Fa aamanoo famatta' naahum ilaa heen

As-Saaffaat 37:149

فَٱسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ149

So inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?

Fastaftihim ali Rabbikal banaatu wa lahumul banoon

As-Saaffaat 37:150

أَمْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثًۭا وَهُمْ شَٰهِدُونَ150

Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?"

As-Saaffaat 37:151

أَلَآ إِنَّهُم مِّنْ إِفْكِهِمْ لَيَقُولُونَ151

Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say,

Alaaa innahum min ifkihim la yaqooloon

As-Saaffaat 37:152

وَلَدَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ152

" Allah has begotten," and indeed, they are liars.

Waladal laahu wa innhum lakaaziboon

As-Saaffaat 37:153

أَصْطَفَى ٱلْبَنَاتِ عَلَى ٱلْبَنِينَ153

Has He chosen daughters over sons?

As-Saaffaat 37:154

مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ154

What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?

أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَٰنٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ156

Or do you have a clear authority?

As-Saaffaat 37:157

فَأْتُوا۟ بِكِتَٰبِكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ157

Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.

Faatoo bi Kitaabikum in kuntum saadiqeen

As-Saaffaat 37:158

وَجَعَلُوا۟ بَيْنَهُۥ وَبَيْنَ ٱلْجِنَّةِ نَسَبًۭا ۚ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمَتِ ٱلْجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ158

And they have claimed between Him and the jinn a lineage, but the jinn have already known that they [who made such claims] will be brought to [punishment].

Wa ja'aloo bainahoo wa bainal jinnati nasabaa; wa laqad 'alimatil jinnatu innahum lamuhdaroon

مَآ أَنتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفَٰتِنِينَ162

You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him

Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire.

And indeed, we are those who exalt Allah."

Wa innaa lanah nul musabbihoon

As-Saaffaat 37:167

وَإِن كَانُوا۟ لَيَقُولُونَ167

And indeed, the disbelievers used to say,

Wa in kaanoo la yaqooloon

As-Saaffaat 37:168

لَوْ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكْرًۭا مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ168

"If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,

Law anna 'indana zikram minal awwaleen

As-Saaffaat 37:169

لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ169

We would have been the chosen servants of Allah."

Lakunna 'ibaadal laahil mukhlaseen

As-Saaffaat 37:170

فَكَفَرُوا۟ بِهِۦ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ170

But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.

Fakafaroo bihee fasawfa ya'lamoon

As-Saaffaat 37:171

وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ171

And Our word has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,

Wa laqad sabaqat Kalimatunaa li'ibaadinal mursa leen

As-Saaffaat 37:172

إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَنصُورُونَ172

[That] indeed, they would be those given victory

Innaa hum lahumul mansooroon

As-Saaffaat 37:173

وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبُونَ173

And [that] indeed, Our soldiers will be those who overcome.

Wa inna jundana lahumul ghaaliboon

As-Saaffaat 37:174

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍۢ174

So, [O Muhammad], leave them for a time.

Fatawalla 'anhum hatta heen

As-Saaffaat 37:175

وَأَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ175

And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.

Wa absirhum fasawfa yubsiroon

As-Saaffaat 37:176

أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ176

Then for Our punishment are they impatient?

Afabi'azaabinaa yasta'jiloon

As-Saaffaat 37:177

فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَآءَ صَبَاحُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ177

But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.

Fa izaa nazala bisaahatihim fasaaa'a sabaahul munzareen

As-Saaffaat 37:178

وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍۢ178

And leave them for a time.

Wa tawalla 'anhum hattaa heen

As-Saaffaat 37:179

وَأَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ179

And see, for they are going to see.
