Surah Al-Israa

وَلَقَدْءَاتَيْنَامُوسَىٰتِسْعَءَايَٰتٍۭبَيِّنَٰتٍۢفَسْـَٔلْبَنِىٓإِسْرَٰٓءِيلَإِذْجَآءَهُمْفَقَالَلَهُۥفِرْعَوْنُإِنِّىلَأَظُنُّكَيَٰمُوسَىٰمَسْحُورًۭا

AND, INDEED, We gave unto Moses nine clear messages. Ask, then, the children of Israel [to tell thee what happened] when he came unto them, [and appealed to Pharaoh,] and Pharaoh said unto him, "Verily, O Moses, I think that thou art full of sorcery!"

قَالَلَقَدْعَلِمْتَمَآأَنزَلَهَٰٓؤُلَآءِإِلَّارَبُّٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِوَٱلْأَرْضِبَصَآئِرَوَإِنِّىلَأَظُنُّكَيَٰفِرْعَوْنُمَثْبُورًۭا

Answered [Moses]: "Thou knowest well that none but the Sustainer of the heavens and the earth has bestowed these [miraculous signs] from on high, as a means of insight [for thee]; and, verily, O Pharaoh, [since thou hast chosen to reject them;] I think that thou art utterly lost!"

فَأَرَادَأَنيَسْتَفِزَّهُممِّنَٱلْأَرْضِفَأَغْرَقْنَٰهُوَمَنمَّعَهُۥجَمِيعًۭا

And then Pharaoh resolved to wipe them off [the face of] the earth - whereupon We caused him and all who were with him to drown [in the sea].

وَقُلْنَامِنۢبَعْدِهِۦلِبَنِىٓإِسْرَٰٓءِيلَٱسْكُنُوا۟ٱلْأَرْضَفَإِذَاجَآءَوَعْدُٱلْءَاخِرَةِجِئْنَابِكُمْلَفِيفًۭا

And after that We said unto the children of Israel: "Dwell now securely on earth - but [remember that] when the promise of the Last Day shall come to pass, We will bring you forth as [parts of] a motley crowd!

وَبِٱلْحَقِّأَنزَلْنَٰهُوَبِٱلْحَقِّنَزَلَوَمَآأَرْسَلْنَٰكَإِلَّامُبَشِّرًۭاوَنَذِيرًۭا

AND AS a guide towards the truth have We bestowed this [revelation] from on high; with this [very] truth has it come down [unto thee, O Prophet]: for We have sent thee but as a herald of glad tidings and a warner,

وَقُرْءَانًۭافَرَقْنَٰهُلِتَقْرَأَهُۥعَلَىٱلنَّاسِعَلَىٰمُكْثٍۢوَنَزَّلْنَٰهُتَنزِيلًۭا

[bearing] a discourse which We have gradually unfolded, so that thou might read it out to mankind by stages, seeing that We have bestowed it from on high step by step, as [one] revelation.

قُلْءَامِنُوا۟بِهِۦٓأَوْلَاتُؤْمِنُوٓا۟إِنَّٱلَّذِينَأُوتُوا۟ٱلْعِلْمَمِنقَبْلِهِۦٓإِذَايُتْلَىٰعَلَيْهِمْيَخِرُّونَلِلْأَذْقَانِسُجَّدًۭا

Say: "Believe in it or do not believe." Behold, those who are already endowed with [innate] knowledge fall down upon their faces in prostration as soon as this [divine writ] is conveyed unto them,

وَيَقُولُونَسُبْحَٰنَرَبِّنَآإِنكَانَوَعْدُرَبِّنَالَمَفْعُولًۭا

and say, "Limitless in His glory is our Sustainer! Verily, our Sustainer's promise has been fulfilled!"

وَيَخِرُّونَلِلْأَذْقَانِيَبْكُونَوَيَزِيدُهُمْخُشُوعًۭا

And so they fall down upon their faces, weeping, and [their consciousness of God's grace] increases their humility.

قُلِٱدْعُوا۟ٱللَّهَأَوِٱدْعُوا۟ٱلرَّحْمَٰنَأَيًّۭامَّاتَدْعُوا۟فَلَهُٱلْأَسْمَآءُٱلْحُسْنَىٰوَلَاتَجْهَرْبِصَلَاتِكَوَلَاتُخَافِتْبِهَاوَٱبْتَغِبَيْنَذَٰلِكَسَبِيلًۭا

Say: "Invoke God, or invoke the Most Gracious: by whichever name you invoke Him, [He is always the One-for] His are all the attributes of perfection. And [pray unto Him; yet] be not too loud in thy prayer nor speak it in too low a voice, but follow a way in-between;

وَقُلِٱلْحَمْدُلِلَّهِٱلَّذِىلَمْيَتَّخِذْوَلَدًۭاوَلَمْيَكُنلَّهُۥشَرِيكٌۭفِىٱلْمُلْكِوَلَمْيَكُنلَّهُۥوَلِىٌّۭمِّنَٱلذُّلِّوَكَبِّرْهُتَكْبِيرًۢا

and say: "All praise is due to God, who begets no offspring, and has no partner in His dominion, and has no weakness, and therefore no need of any aid" -and [thus] extol His limitless greatness.
