بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

 

وَلَمَنِ ٱنتَصَرَ بَعۡدَ ظُلۡمِهِۦ فَأُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ مَا عَلَيۡهِم مِّن سَبِيلٍ

Transliteration:( Wa lamanin tasara ba'da zulmihee fa ulaaa'ika maa 'alaihim min sabeel )
41. And certainly whosoever takes revenge after being victimized of oppression; there is no blame [115] on him.

إِنَّمَا ٱلسَّبِيلُ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يَظۡلِمُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ وَيَبۡغُونَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ بِغَيۡرِ ٱلۡحَقِّۚ أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٞ

Transliteration:( Innamas sabeelu 'alal lazeena yazlimoonan naasa wa yabghoona fil ardi bighairil haqq; ulaaa'ika lahum 'azaabun aleem )
42. The blame lies only against those who do wrong [116] against mankind and transgress in the earth without right [117]. For them is the painful punishment.

وَلَمَن صَبَرَ وَغَفَرَ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمِنۡ عَزۡمِ ٱلۡأُمُورِ

Transliteration:( Wa laman sabara wa ghafara inna zaalika lamin 'azmil umoor (section 4) )
43. And the one, who shows patience and forgives [118], certainly complies with strong divine determination [119].

وَمَن يُضۡلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن وَلِيّٖ مِّنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦۗ وَتَرَى ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ لَمَّا رَأَوُاْ ٱلۡعَذَابَ يَقُولُونَ هَلۡ إِلَىٰ مَرَدّٖ مِّن سَبِيلٖ

Transliteration:( Wa mai yudli lillaahu famaa lahoo minw waliyyin min ba'dih; wa taraz zaalimeena lammaa ra awul 'azaaba yaqooloona hal ilaa maraddin min sabeel )
44.And whom Allah leaves to go on a wrong way, he has not protector for him, thereafter [120]. And you will see [121] the wrongdoers when they see the punishment, saying: "Is there any way (122) to return?"

وَتَرَىٰهُمۡ يُعۡرَضُونَ عَلَيۡهَا خَٰشِعِينَ مِنَ ٱلذُّلِّ يَنظُرُونَ مِن طَرۡفٍ خَفِيّٖۗ وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓاْ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَأَهۡلِيهِمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۗ أَلَآ إِنَّ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ فِي عَذَابٖ مُّقِيمٖ

Transliteration:( Wa taraahum yu'radoona 'alaihaa khaashi'eena minazzulli yanzuroona min tarfin khafiyy; wa qaalal lazeena aamanooo innal khaasireenal lazeena khasirooo anfusahum wa ahleehim Yawmal Qiyaamah; alaaa innaz zaalimeena fee 'azaabin muqeem )
45. And you will see them exposed to it (fire) dejected with disgrace, looking stealthily (123). And the believers will say: "Surely, the losers (124) are those who have lost themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection (125)". Behold, certainly the unjust are in lasting punishment (126).

وَمَا كَانَ لَهُم مِّنۡ أَوۡلِيَآءَ يَنصُرُونَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِۗ وَمَن يُضۡلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن سَبِيلٍ

Transliteration:( Wa maa kaana lahum min awliyaaa'a yansuroonahum min doonil laah; wa mai yudlilil laahu famaa lahoo min sabeel )
46. And they have no protectors [127]" to help them except Allah. And whomsoever Allah leaves to go on the wrong way [128], has no way (129)

ٱسۡتَجِيبُواْ لِرَبِّكُم مِّن قَبۡلِ أَن يَأۡتِيَ يَوۡمٞ لَّا مَرَدَّ لَهُۥ مِنَ ٱللَّهِۚ مَا لَكُم مِّن مَّلۡجَإٖ يَوۡمَئِذٖ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن نَّكِيرٖ

Transliteration:( Istajeeboo li Rabbikum min qabli any yaatiya Yawmul laa maradda lahoo min Allah; maa lakum min malja' iny yawma'izinw wa maa lakum min nakeer )
47.Obey the Commands [130] of your Lord before the coming[131] of the day that is not to be averted (132) against Allah. You would have no refuge (133) that day, nor can you dare to deny(134) it.

فَإِنۡ أَعۡرَضُواْ فَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَفِيظًاۖ إِنۡ عَلَيۡكَ إِلَّا ٱلۡبَلَٰغُۗ وَإِنَّآ إِذَآ أَذَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ مِنَّا رَحۡمَةٗ فَرِحَ بِهَاۖ وَإِن تُصِبۡهُمۡ سَيِّئَةُۢ بِمَا قَدَّمَتۡ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ فَإِنَّ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ كَفُورٞ

Transliteration:( Fa-in a'radoo famaaa arsalnaaka 'alaihim hafeezan in 'alaika illal balaagh; wa innaaa izaaa azaqnal insaana minnaa rahmatan fariha bihaa wa in tusibhum saiyi'atun bimaa qaddamat aydeehim fa innal insaana kafoor )
48.But if they turn [135] aside, then We have not sent you as a warden [136]. Your duty is only to deliver the Message (137). And certainly, when We let human beings taste (138) the Mercy from Us, they rejoice (139 )over it. But, if any evil befalls them, because of what their hands have sent forth (140), the human beings become most ungrateful (141).

لِّلَّهِ مُلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۚ يَخۡلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُۚ يَهَبُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ إِنَٰثٗا وَيَهَبُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ ٱلذُّكُورَ

Transliteration:( Lillaahi mulkus samaawaati wal ard; yakhluqu maa yashaaa'; yahabu limai yashaaa'u inaasanw wa yahabu limai yashaaa'uz zukoor )
49. To Allah belongs the Authority [142] of the heavens and the earth. He creates whatever He likes. He bestows daughters on whomsoever He Pleases and bestows sons whomsoever He Pleases.[143]

أَوۡ يُزَوِّجُهُمۡ ذُكۡرَانٗا وَإِنَٰثٗاۖ وَيَجۡعَلُ مَن يَشَآءُ عَقِيمًاۚ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِيمٞ قَدِيرٞ

Transliteration:( Aw yuzawwijuhum zukraananw wa inaasanw wa yaj'alu mai yashaaa'u 'aqeemaa; innahoo 'Aleemun Qadeer )
50. Or He couples [144] both, the sons and the daughters, and He makes whomsoever He wishes, issueless [145]. Indeed, He is All-Knowing, the Powerful.
