أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ مِن ذُرِّيَّةِ ءَادَمَ وَمِمَّنْ حَمَلْنَا مَعَ نُوحٍ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّةِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ وَمِمَّنْ هَدَيْنَا وَٱجْتَبَيْنَآ ۚ إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَايَـٰتُ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ خَرُّوا۟ سُجَّدًا وَبُكِيًّا ۩ ﴿٥٨﴾

These are they unto whom Allah showed favour from among the prophets, of the seed of Adam and of those whom We carried (in the ship) with Noah, and of the seed of Abraham and Israel, and from among those whom We guided and chose. When the revelations of the Beneficent were recited unto them, they fell down, adoring and weeping.

19:59

۞ فَخَلَفَ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ خَلْفٌ أَضَاعُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَٱتَّبَعُوا۟ ٱلشَّهَوَٰتِ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَلْقَوْنَ غَيًّا ﴿٥٩﴾

Now there hath succeeded them a later generation whom have ruined worship and have followed lusts. But they will meet deception.

19:60

إِلَّا مَن تَابَ وَءَامَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَـٰلِحًا فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ يَدْخُلُونَ ٱلْجَنَّةَ وَلَا يُظْلَمُونَ شَيْـًٔا ﴿٦٠﴾

Illā man tāba waʾāmana waʿamila ṣāliḥan faʾulāʾika yadkhulūna al-jannata walā yuẓlamūna shayʾā

Save him who shall repent and believe and do right. Such will enter the Garden, and they will not be wronged in aught -

19:61

جَنَّـٰتِ عَدْنٍ ٱلَّتِى وَعَدَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ عِبَادَهُۥ بِٱلْغَيْبِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ وَعْدُهُۥ مَأْتِيًّا ﴿٦١﴾

Jannāti ʿadnin allatī waʿada ar-raḥmānu ʿibādahu bil-ghaybi innahu kāna waʿduhu maʾtiyyā

Gardens of Eden, which the Beneficent hath promised to His slaves in the unseen. Lo! His promise is ever sure of fulfilment -

19:62

لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا إِلَّا سَلَـٰمًا ۖ وَلَهُمْ رِزْقُهُمْ فِيهَا بُكْرَةً وَعَشِيًّا ﴿٦٢﴾

Tilka al-jannatu allatī nūrithu min ʿibādinā man kāna taqiyyā

Such is the Garden which We cause the devout among Our bondmen to inherit.

19:64

وَمَا نَتَنَزَّلُ إِلَّا بِأَمْرِ رَبِّكَ ۖ لَهُۥ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا وَمَا خَلْفَنَا وَمَا بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ ۚ وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ نَسِيًّا ﴿٦٤﴾

Wamā natanazzalu illā biʾamri rabbika lahu mā bayna aydīnā wamā khalfanā wamā bayna dhālika wamā kāna rabbuka nasiyyā

We (angels) come not down save by commandment of thy Lord. Unto Him belongeth all that is before us and all that is behind us and all that is between those two, and thy Lord was never forgetful -

19:65

رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فَٱعْبُدْهُ وَٱصْطَبِرْ لِعِبَـٰدَتِهِۦ ۚ هَلْ تَعْلَمُ لَهُۥ سَمِيًّا ﴿٦٥﴾

Wayaqūlu al-insānu aʾidhā mā mittu lasawfa ukhraju ḥayyā

And man saith: When I am dead, shall I forsooth be brought forth alive?

19:67

أَوَلَا يَذْكُرُ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ أَنَّا خَلَقْنَـٰهُ مِن قَبْلُ وَلَمْ يَكُ شَيْـًٔا ﴿٦٧﴾

Awalā yadhkuru al-insānu annā khalaqnāhu min qablu walam yaku shayʾā

Doth not man remember that We created him before, when he was naught?

19:68

فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَحْشُرَنَّهُمْ وَٱلشَّيَـٰطِينَ ثُمَّ لَنُحْضِرَنَّهُمْ حَوْلَ جَهَنَّمَ جِثِيًّا ﴿٦٨﴾

Fawarabbika lanaḥshurannahum wash-shayāṭīna thumma lanuḥḍirannahum ḥawla jahannama jithiyyā

Waʾin minkum illā wāriduhā kāna ʿalā rabbika ḥatman maqḍiyyā

There is not one of you but shall approach it. That is a fixed ordinance of thy Lord.

19:72

Thumma nunajjī alladhīna ittaqaw wanadharu aẓ-ẓālimīna fīhā jithiyyā

Then We shall rescue those who kept from evil, and leave the evil-doers crouching there.

19:73

وَإِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَايَـٰتُنَا بَيِّنَـٰتٍ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَىُّ ٱلْفَرِيقَيْنِ خَيْرٌ مَّقَامًا وَأَحْسَنُ نَدِيًّا ﴿٧٣﴾

And when Our clear revelations are recited unto them, those who disbelieve say unto those who believe: Which of the two parties (yours or ours) is better in position, and more imposing as an army?

19:74

وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُم مِّن قَرْنٍ هُمْ أَحْسَنُ أَثَـٰثًا وَرِءْيًا ﴿٧٤﴾

Wakam ahlaknā qablahum min qarnin hum aḥsanu athāthan wariʾyā

How many a generation have We destroyed before them, who were more imposing in respect of gear and outward seeming!

19:75

قُلْ مَن كَانَ فِى ٱلضَّلَـٰلَةِ فَلْيَمْدُدْ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ مَدًّا ۚ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا رَأَوْا۟ مَا يُوعَدُونَ إِمَّا ٱلْعَذَابَ وَإِمَّا ٱلسَّاعَةَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا وَأَضْعَفُ جُندًا ﴿٧٥﴾

Qul man kāna fī aḍ-ḍalālati falyamdud lahu ar-raḥmānu maddan ḥattā idhā raʾaw mā yūʿadūna immā al-ʿadhāba waʾimmā as-sāʿata fasayaʿlamūna man huwa sharrun makānan waʾaḍʿafu jundā

Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will verily prolong his span of life until, when they behold that which they were promised, whether it be punishment (in the world), or the Hour (of doom), they will know who is worse in position and who is weaker as an army.

19:76

وَيَزِيدُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱهْتَدَوْا۟ هُدًى ۗ وَٱلْبَـٰقِيَـٰتُ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتُ خَيْرٌ عِندَ رَبِّكَ ثَوَابًا وَخَيْرٌ مَّرَدًّا ﴿٧٦﴾

Wayazīdu Allāhu alladhīna ihtadaw hudan wal-bāqiyātu aṣ-ṣāliḥātu khayrun ʿinda rabbika thawāban wakhayrun maraddā

Allah increaseth in right guidance those who walk aright, and the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better for resort.

19:77

Afaraʾayta alladhī kafara biʾāyātinā waqāla laʾūtayanna mālan wawaladā

Hast thou seen him who disbelieveth in Our revelations and saith: Assuredly I shall be given wealth and children?

Aṭṭalaʿa al-ghayba ami ittakhadha ʿinda ar-raḥmāni ʿahdā

Hath he perused the Unseen, or hath he made a pact with the Beneficent?

19:79

Kallā sayakfurūna biʿibādatihim wayakūnūna ʿalayhim ḍiddā

Nay, but they will deny their worship of them, and become opponents unto them.

19:83

أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينَ عَلَى ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ تَؤُزُّهُمْ أَزًّا ﴿٨٣﴾

Alam tara annā arsalnā ash-shayāṭīna ʿalā al-kāfirīna taʾuzzuhum azzā

Seest thou not that We have set the devils on the disbelievers to confound them with confusion?

Wanasūqu al-mujrimīna ilā jahannama wirdā

And drive the guilty unto hell, a weary herd,
