# Translation Ayah
1 Read! In the name of your Lord, who created: اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ
2 created man from a clot [of blood]. خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ
3 Read! Your Lord is the Most Bountiful One اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ
4 who taught by the pen, الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ
5 taught man what he did not know. عَلَّمَ الْإِنسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ
6 Yet man behaves arrogantly, كَلَّا إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَيَطْغَى
7 because he thinks himself self-sufficient: أَن رَّآهُ اسْتَغْنَى
8 truly, all will return to your Lord. إِنَّ إِلَى رَبِّكَ الرُّجْعَى
9 Have you seen one who prevents أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهَى
10 a worshipper from praying? عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّى
11 Do you think he is rightly guided, أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى الْهُدَى
12 or enjoins true piety? أَوْ أَمَرَ بِالتَّقْوَى
13 Do you see how he has denied the truth and turned away from it? أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّى
14 Does he not know that God observes all things? أَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَرَى
15 Let him beware! If he does not desist, We will drag him by the forelock -- كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًا بِالنَّاصِيَةِ
16 his lying, sinful forelock. نَاصِيَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ
17 Then let him call his associates; فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَه
18 We shall summon the guards of Hell. سَنَدْعُ الزَّبَانِيَةَ
19 No indeed! Do not obey him, but prostrate yourself and come closer to God. كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِبْ
