Section 1

1.
Alif-lam-ra kitabun anzalnahu ilayka litukhrija aLnnasa mina aL"thth"ulumati ila aLnnoori bi-ithni rabbihim ila sirati alAAazeezi alhameedI

1. A. L. R. A
Book

Which We have revealed

Unto thee, in order that

Thou mightest lead mankind

Out of the depths of darkness

Into light--by the leave

Of their Lord--to the Way

Of (Him) the Exalted in Power,

Worthy of all Praise!--

2.
Allahi allathee lahu ma fee aLssamawati wama fee al-ardi wawaylun lilkafireena min AAathabin shadeedIn

2.
Of God, to Whom do belong

All things in the heavens

And on earth!

But alas for the Unbelievers

For a terrible Penalty

(Their Unfaith will bring them)!--

3.
Allatheena yastahibboona alhayata aLddunya AAala al-akhirati wayasuddoona AAan sabeeli Allahi wayabghoonaha AAiwajan ola-ika fee dalalin baAAeedIn

3.
Those who love the life

Of this world more than

The Hereafter, who hinder (men)

From the Path of God

And seek therein something crooked:

They are astray

By a long distance.

4. Wama arsalna min rasoolin illa bilisani qawmihi liyubayyina lahum fayudillu Allahu man yashao wayahdee man yashao wahuwa alAAazeezu alhakeemU

4.
We sent not an apostle

Except (to teach) in the language

Of his (own) people, in order

To make (things) clear to them.

Now God leaves straying

Those whom He pleases

And guides whom He pleases:


And He is Exalted in Power,

Full of Wisdom.

5. Walaqad arsalna moosa bi-ayatina an akhrij qawmaka mina aL"thth"ulumati ila aLnnoori wathakkirhum bi-ayyami Allahi inna fee thalika laayatin likulli sabbarin shakoorIn

5.
We sent Moses with Our Signs

(And the command). "Bring out

Thy people from the depths

Of darkness into light,

And teach them to remember

The Days of God.
" Verily

In this there are Signs

For such as are firmly patient

And constant,--grateful and appreciative.

6. Wa-ith qala moosa liqawmihi othkuroo niAAmata Allahi AAalaykum ith anjakum min ali firAAawna yasoomoonakum soo-a alAAathabi wayuthabbihoona abnaakum wayastahyoona nisaakum wafee thalikum balaon min rabbikum AAa"th"eemUn

6.
Remember! Moses said

To his people: "Call to mind

The favour of God to you

When He delivered you

From the people of Pharaoh:


They set you hard tasks

And punishments, slaughtered

Your sons, and let your women-folk

Live: therein was

A tremendous trial from your Lord."
