قُلْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ أَنَّهُ اسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ الْجِنِّ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْءانًا عَجَبًا |
| 72:2 | " `It guides to righteousness, and we have believed in it; we will never set up any idols beside our Lord. | يَهْدِي إِلَى الرُّشْدِ فَءامَنَّا بِهِ وَلَنْ نُشْرِكَ بِرَبِّنَا أَحَدًا |
| 72:3 | " `The Most High is our only Lord. He never had a mate, nor a son. | وَأَنَّهُ تَعَلَى جَدُّ رَبِّنَا مَا اتَّخَذَ صَحِبَةً وَلَا وَلَدًا |
| 72:4 | " `It is the foolish among us who used to utter such nonsense about GOD. | وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ سَفِيهُنَا عَلَى اللَّهِ شَطَطًا |
| 72:5 | " `We thought that neither the humans, nor the jinns, could possibly utter lies about GOD. | وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَنْ تَقُولَ الْإِنسُ وَالْجِنُّ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا |
| 72:6 | " `Human beings used to seek power through jinn beings, but they only afflicted them with a lot of adversity. | وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِنْ الْإِنسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ مِنْ الْجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمْ رَهَقًا |
| 72:7 | " `They thought, just like you thought, that GOD would not send another (messenger). | وَأَنَّهُمْ ظَنُّوا كَمَا ظَنَنتُمْ أَنْ لَنْ يَبْعَثَ اللَّهُ أَحَدًا |
| 72:8 | " `We touched the heaven and found it filled with formidable guards and projectiles. | وَأَنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَاءَ فَوَجَدْنَهَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِيدًا وَشُهُبًا |
| 72:9 | " `We used to sit there in order to spy. Anyone who listens is pursued by a powerful projectile. | وَأَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْهَا مَقَعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ فَمَنْ يَسْتَمِعْ الْاءنَ يَجِدْ لَهُ شِهَابًا رَصَدًا |
| 72:10 | " `We have no idea if something bad is intended for the inhabitants of Earth, or if their Lord wills to redeem them. | وَأَنَّا لَا نَدْرِي أَشَرٌّ أُرِيدَ بِمَنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَمْ أَرَادَ بِهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ رَشَدًا |
| 72:11 | " `Some of us are righteous, and some are less than righteous; we follow various paths. | وَأَنَّا مِنَّا الصَّلِحُونَ وَمِنَّا دُونَ ذَلِكَ كُنَّا طَرَائِقَ قِدَدًا |
| 72:12 | " `We knew full well that we can never run away from GOD on Earth; we can never run away and escape. | وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَنْ نُعجِزَ اللَّهَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَنْ نُعْجِزَهُ هَرَبًا |
| 72:13 | " `When we heard the guidance, we believed therein. Anyone who believes in his Lord will never fear any injustice, nor any affliction. | وَأَنَّا لَمَّا سَمِعْنَا الْهُدَى ءامَنَّا بِهِ فَمَنْ يُؤْمِنْ بِرَبِّهِ فَلَا يَخَافُ بَخْسًا وَلَا رَهَقًا |
| 72:14 | " `Among us are the submitters, and among us are the compromisers.' " As for those who submitted, they are on the right path. | وَأَنَّا مِنَّا الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَمِنَّا الْقَسِطُونَ فَمَنْ أَسْلَمَ فَأُوْلَئِكَ تَحَرَّوْا رَشَدًا |
| 72:15 | As for the compromisers, they will be fuel for Gehenna. | وَأَمَّا الْقَسِطُونَ فَكَانُوا لِجَهَنَّمَ حَطَبًا |
| 72:16 | If they remain on the right path, we will bless them with abundant water. | وَأَلَّوْ اسْتَقَمُوا عَلَى الطَّرِيقَةِ لَأَسْقَيْنَهُمْ مَاءً غَدَقًا |
| 72:17 | We will surely test them all. As for him who disregards the message of his Lord, He will direct him to ever increasing retribution. | لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ وَمَنْ يُعْرِضْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِ يَسْلُكْهُ عَذَابًا صَعَدًا |
| 72:18 | The places of worship belong to GOD; do not call on anyone else beside GOD. | وَأَنَّ الْمَسَجِدَ لِلَّهِ فَلَا تَدْعُوا مَعَ اللَّهِ أَحَدًا |
| 72:19 | God's Messenger
of the Covenant*
When GOD's servant* advocated Him alone, almost all of them banded together to oppose him.

وَأَنَّهُ لَمَّا قَامَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يَدْعُوهُ كَادُوا يَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهِ لِبَدًا |
| 72:20 | Say, "I worship only my Lord; I never set up any idols beside Him." | قُلْ إِنَّمَا أَدْعُو رَبِّي وَلَا أُشْرِكُ بِهِ أَحَدًا |
| 72:21 | Say, "I possess no power to harm you, nor to guide you." | قُلْ إِنِّي لَا أَمْلِكُ لَكُمْ ضَرًّا وَلَا رَشَدًا |
| 72:22 | Say, "No one can protect me from GOD, nor can I find any other refuge beside Him. | قُلْ إِنِّي لَنْ يُجِيرَنِي مِنْ اللَّهِ أَحَدٌ وَلَنْ أَجِدَ مِنْ دُونِهِ مُلْتَحَدًا |
| 72:23 | "I deliver GOD's proclamations and messages." Those who disobey GOD and His messenger incur the fire of Hell, wherein they abide forever. | إِلَّا بَلَغًا مِنْ اللَّهِ وَرِسَلَتِهِ وَمَنْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَإِنَّ لَهُ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ خَلِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا |
| 72:24 | Once they see what is awaiting them, they will find out who is really weaker in power, and fewer in number. | حَتَّى إِذَا رَأَوْا مَا يُوعَدُونَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ أَضْعَفُ نَاصِرًا وَأَقَلُّ عَدَدًا |
| 72:25 | Say, "I do not know if what is promised to you will happen soon, or if my Lord will delay it for awhile." | قُلْ إِنْ أَدْرِي أَقَرِيبٌ مَا تُوعَدُونَ أَمْ يَجْعَلُ لَهُ رَبِّي أَمَدًا |
| 72:26 | He is the Knower of the future; He does not reveal the future to anyone. | عَلِمُ الْغَيْبِ فَلَا يُظْهِرُ عَلَى غَيْبِهِ أَحَدًا |
| 72:27 | Only to a messenger that He chooses,* does He reveal from the past and the future, specific news.*

إِلَّا مَنْ ارْتَضَى مِنْ رَسُولٍ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْلُكُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ رَصَدًا |
| 72:28 | This is to ascertain that they have delivered their Lord's messages. He is fully aware of what they have. He has counted the numbers of all things. | لِيَعْلَمَ أَنْ قَدْ أَبْلَغُوا رِسَلَتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَأَحَاطَ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ وَأَحْصَى كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عَدَدًا |
