وَقَـٰرُونَ And Qarun وَفِرْعَوْنَ and Firaun وَهَـٰمَـٰنَ ۖ and Haman وَلَقَدْ And certainly جَآءَهُم came to them مُّوسَىٰ Musa بِٱلْبَيِّنَـٰتِ with clear evidences فَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ but they were arrogant فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth وَمَا and not كَانُوا۟ they could سَـٰبِقِينَ outstrip Us ٣٩

And [We destroyed] Qārūn and Pharaoh and Hāmān. And Moses had already come to them with clear evidences, and they were arrogant in the land, but they were not outrunners [of Our punishment].

فَكُلًّا So each أَخَذْنَا We seized بِذَنۢبِهِۦ ۖ for his sin فَمِنْهُم Then of them مَّنْ (was he) who أَرْسَلْنَا We sent عَلَيْهِ on him حَاصِبًۭا a violent storm وَمِنْهُم and of them مَّنْ (was he) who أَخَذَتْهُ seized him ٱلصَّيْحَةُ the awful cry وَمِنْهُم and of them مَّنْ (was he) who خَسَفْنَا We caused to swallow بِهِ him ٱلْأَرْضَ the earth وَمِنْهُم and of them مَّنْ (was he) who أَغْرَقْنَا ۚ We drowned وَمَا And not كَانَ was ٱللَّهُ Allah لِيَظْلِمَهُمْ to wrong them وَلَـٰكِن but كَانُوٓا۟ they were أَنفُسَهُمْ themselves يَظْلِمُونَ doing wrong ٤٠

So each We seized for his sin; and among them were those upon whom We sent a storm of stones, and among them were those who were seized by the blast [from the sky], and among them were those whom We caused the earth to swallow, and among them were those whom We drowned. And Allāh would not have wronged them, but it was they who were wronging themselves.

مَثَلُ (The) example ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ take مِن besides دُونِ besides ٱللَّهِ Allah أَوْلِيَآءَ protectors كَمَثَلِ (is) like ٱلْعَنكَبُوتِ the spider ٱتَّخَذَتْ who takes بَيْتًۭا ۖ a house وَإِنَّ And indeed أَوْهَنَ the weakest ٱلْبُيُوتِ (of) houses لَبَيْتُ (is) surely (the) house ٱلْعَنكَبُوتِ ۖ (of) the spider لَوْ if (only) كَانُوا۟ they يَعْلَمُونَ know ٤١

The example of those who take allies other than Allāh is like that of the spider who takes [i.e., constructs] a home. And indeed, the weakest of homes is the home of the spider, if they only knew.

إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah يَعْلَمُ knows مَا what يَدْعُونَ they invoke مِن besides Him دُونِهِۦ besides Him مِن any شَىْءٍۢ ۚ thing وَهُوَ And He ٱلْعَزِيزُ (is) the All-Mighty ٱلْحَكِيمُ the All-Wise ٤٢

Indeed, Allāh knows whatever thing they call upon other than Him. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

ٱتْلُ Recite مَآ what أُوحِىَ has been revealed إِلَيْكَ to you مِنَ of ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ the Book وَأَقِمِ and establish ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ ۖ the prayer إِنَّ Indeed ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ the prayer تَنْهَىٰ prevents عَنِ from ٱلْفَحْشَآءِ the immorality وَٱلْمُنكَرِ ۗ and evil deeds وَلَذِكْرُ and surely (the) remembrance ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah أَكْبَرُ ۗ (is) greatest وَٱللَّهُ And Allah يَعْلَمُ knows مَا what تَصْنَعُونَ you do ٤٥

Recite, [O Muḥammad], what has been revealed to you of the Book and establish prayer. Indeed, prayer prohibits immorality and wrongdoing, and the remembrance of Allāh is greater. And Allāh knows that which you do.
