Surah Ar-Rahmaan

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

يَخْرُجُمِنْهُمَاٱللُّؤْلُؤُوَٱلْمَرْجَانُ

Out of these two [bodies of water] come forth pearls, both great and small.

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

وَلَهُٱلْجَوَارِٱلْمُنشَـَٔاتُفِىٱلْبَحْرِكَٱلْأَعْلَٰمِ

And His are the lofty ships that sail like [floating] mountains through the seas.

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

كُلُّمَنْعَلَيْهَافَانٍۢ

All that lives on earth or in the heavens is bound to pass away:

وَيَبْقَىٰوَجْهُرَبِّكَذُوٱلْجَلَٰلِوَٱلْإِكْرَامِ

but forever will abide thy Sustainer’s Self, full of majesty and glory.

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

يَسْـَٔلُهُۥمَنفِىٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِوَٱلْأَرْضِكُلَّيَوْمٍهُوَفِىشَأْنٍۢ

On Him depends all creatures in the heavens and on earth; [and] every day He manifests Himself in yet another [wondrous] way.

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

سَنَفْرُغُلَكُمْأَيُّهَٱلثَّقَلَانِ

[ONE DAY] We shall take you to task, O you sin-laden two!

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

يَٰمَعْشَرَٱلْجِنِّوَٱلْإِنسِإِنِٱسْتَطَعْتُمْأَنتَنفُذُوا۟مِنْأَقْطَارِٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِوَٱلْأَرْضِفَٱنفُذُوا۟لَاتَنفُذُونَإِلَّابِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ

O you who live in close communion with [evil] invisible beings and humans! If you [think that you] can pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, pass beyond them! [But] you cannot pass beyond them, save by a sanction [from God]!

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

يُرْسَلُعَلَيْكُمَاشُوَاظٌۭمِّننَّارٍۢوَنُحَاسٌۭفَلَاتَنتَصِرَانِ

A flash of fire will be let loose upon you, and smoke, and you will be left without succour!

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

فَإِذَاٱنشَقَّتِٱلسَّمَآءُفَكَانَتْوَرْدَةًۭكَٱلدِّهَانِ

And when the sky is rent asunder and becomes red like [burning] oil

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?

فَيَوْمَئِذٍۢلَّايُسْـَٔلُعَنذَنۢبِهِۦٓإِنسٌۭوَلَاجَآنٌّۭ

For on that Day neither man nor invisible being will be asked about his sins.

فَبِأَىِّءَالَآءِرَبِّكُمَاتُكَذِّبَانِ

Which, then, of your Sustainer’s powers can you disavow?
