يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O ٱلَّذِينَ (you) who ءَامَنُوٓا۟ believe إِذَا When نُودِىَ (the) call is made لِلصَّلَوٰةِ for (the) prayer مِن on يَوْمِ (the) day ٱلْجُمُعَةِ (of) Friday فَٱسْعَوْا۟ then hasten إِلَىٰ to ذِكْرِ (the) remembrance ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَذَرُوا۟ and leave ٱلْبَيْعَ ۚ the business ذَٰلِكُمْ That خَيْرٌۭ (is) better لَّكُمْ for you إِن if كُنتُمْ you تَعْلَمُونَ know ٩

O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allāh and leave trade. That is better for you, if you only knew.

فَإِذَا Then when قُضِيَتِ is concluded ٱلصَّلَوٰةُ the prayer فَٱنتَشِرُوا۟ then disperse فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the land وَٱبْتَغُوا۟ and seek مِن from فَضْلِ (the) Bounty ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَٱذْكُرُوا۟ and remember ٱللَّهَ Allah كَثِيرًۭا much لَّعَلَّكُمْ so that you may تُفْلِحُونَ succeed ١٠

And when the prayer has been concluded, disperse within the land and seek from the bounty of Allāh, and remember Allāh often that you may succeed.

وَإِذَا And when رَأَوْا۟ they saw تِجَـٰرَةً a transaction أَوْ or لَهْوًا a sport ٱنفَضُّوٓا۟ they rushed إِلَيْهَا to it وَتَرَكُوكَ and left you قَآئِمًۭا ۚ standing قُلْ Say مَا What عِندَ (is) with ٱللَّهِ Allah خَيْرٌۭ (is) better مِّنَ than ٱللَّهْوِ the sport وَمِنَ and from ٱلتِّجَـٰرَةِ ۚ (any) transaction وَٱللَّهُ And Allah خَيْرُ (is the) Best ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ (of) the Providers ١١

But [on one occasion] when they saw a transaction or a diversion, [O Muḥammad], they rushed to it and left you standing. Say, "What is with Allāh is better than diversion and than a transaction, and Allāh is the best of providers."
