ٱلْحَمْدُ (All) the praises and thanks لِلَّهِ (be) to Allah ٱلَّذِى the One Who خَلَقَ created ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضَ and the earth وَجَعَلَ and made ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ the darkness[es] وَٱلنُّورَ ۖ and the light ثُمَّ Then ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved بِرَبِّهِمْ in their Lord يَعْدِلُونَ equate others with Him ١

[All] praise is [due] to Allāh, who created the heavens and the earth and made the darkness and the light. Then those who disbelieve equate [others] with their Lord.

هُوَ He ٱلَّذِى (is) the One Who خَلَقَكُم created you مِّن from طِينٍۢ clay ثُمَّ then قَضَىٰٓ He decreed أَجَلًۭا ۖ a term وَأَجَلٌۭ and a term مُّسَمًّى specified عِندَهُۥ ۖ with Him ثُمَّ yet أَنتُمْ you تَمْتَرُونَ doubt ٢

And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they turn away therefrom.

فَقَدْ Then indeed كَذَّبُوا۟ they denied بِٱلْحَقِّ the truth لَمَّا when جَآءَهُمْ ۖ it came to them فَسَوْفَ but soon يَأْتِيهِمْ will come to them أَنۢبَـٰٓؤُا۟ news مَا (of) what كَانُوا۟ they used to بِهِۦ [at it] يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ mock ٥

6:6

أَلَمْ Did not يَرَوْا۟ they see كَمْ how many أَهْلَكْنَا We destroyed مِن from قَبْلِهِم before them مِّن of قَرْنٍۢ generations مَّكَّنَّـٰهُمْ We had established them فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth مَا what لَمْ not نُمَكِّن We (have) established لَّكُمْ for you وَأَرْسَلْنَا And We sent ٱلسَّمَآءَ (rain from) the sky عَلَيْهِم upon them مِّدْرَارًۭا showering abundantly وَجَعَلْنَا and We made ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرَ the rivers تَجْرِى flow مِن from تَحْتِهِمْ underneath them فَأَهْلَكْنَـٰهُم Then We destroyed them بِذُنُوبِهِمْ for their sins وَأَنشَأْنَا and We raised مِنۢ from بَعْدِهِمْ after them قَرْنًا generations ءَاخَرِينَ other ٦

Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them which We had established upon the earth as We have not established you? And We sent [rain from] the sky upon them in showers and made rivers flow beneath them; then We destroyed them for their sins and brought forth after them a generation of others.

وَلَوْ And (even) if نَزَّلْنَا We (had) sent down عَلَيْكَ to you كِتَـٰبًۭا a written Scripture فِى in قِرْطَاسٍۢ a parchment فَلَمَسُوهُ and they touched it بِأَيْدِيهِمْ with their hands لَقَالَ surely (would) have said ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوٓا۟ disbelieved إِنْ Not هَـٰذَآ (is) this إِلَّا but سِحْرٌۭ magic مُّبِينٌۭ clear ٧

And even if We had sent down to you, [O Muḥammad], a written scripture on a page and they touched it with their hands, the disbelievers would say, "This is not but obvious magic."

6:8

وَقَالُوا۟ And they said لَوْلَآ Why has not been أُنزِلَ sent down عَلَيْهِ to him مَلَكٌۭ ۖ an Angel وَلَوْ And if أَنزَلْنَا We (had) sent down مَلَكًۭا an Angel لَّقُضِىَ surely (would) have been decided ٱلْأَمْرُ the matter ثُمَّ then لَا no يُنظَرُونَ respite would have been granted to them ٨

And they say, "Why was there not sent down to him an angel?" But if We had sent down an angel, the matter would have been decided; then they would not be reprieved.

6:9

وَلَوْ And if جَعَلْنَـٰهُ We had made him مَلَكًۭا an Angel لَّجَعَلْنَـٰهُ certainly We (would) have made him رَجُلًۭا a man وَلَلَبَسْنَا and certainly We (would) have obscured عَلَيْهِم to them مَّا what يَلْبِسُونَ they are obscuring ٩

And if We had made him [i.e., the messenger] an angel, We would have made him [appear as] a man, and We would have covered them with that in which they cover themselves [i.e., confusion and doubt].

وَلَقَدِ And indeed ٱسْتُهْزِئَ were mocked بِرُسُلٍۢ Messengers مِّن from قَبْلِكَ before you فَحَاقَ but surrounded بِٱلَّذِينَ those who سَخِرُوا۟ scoffed مِنْهُم of them مَّا what كَانُوا۟ they used to بِهِۦ [at it] يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ mock ١٠

قُل Say لِّمَن To whom (belongs) مَّا what فِى (is) in ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ the heavens وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ and the earth قُل Say لِّلَّهِ ۚ To Allah كَتَبَ He has decreed عَلَىٰ upon نَفْسِهِ Himself ٱلرَّحْمَةَ ۚ the Mercy لَيَجْمَعَنَّكُمْ Surely He will assemble you إِلَىٰ on يَوْمِ (the) Day ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ (of) the Resurrection لَا (there is) no رَيْبَ doubt فِيهِ ۚ about it ٱلَّذِينَ Those who خَسِرُوٓا۟ have lost أَنفُسَهُمْ themselves فَهُمْ then they لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe ١٢

Say, "To whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth?" Say, "To Allāh." He has decreed upon Himself mercy. He will surely assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt. Those who will lose themselves [that Day] do not believe.
