| | Musharraf Hussain rendition of Surah The Jinn(al-Jinn)

| 72:1 | | Say Prophet: “It was revealed to me that a group of jinn listened to the Quran and said to their people, ‘We heard an amazing recitation, |
| 72:2 | | which guides to the right path and we believed it, and will not associate anyone with Our Lord.’ |
| 72:3 | | ‘Our Lord’s majesty is exalted and He hasn’t taken a wife nor a child, |
| 72:4 | | as some fools claimed such an outrageous lie against Allah. |
| 72:5 | | We never thought human beings and jinn would utter such lies against Allah. |
| 72:6 | | ‘Men used to seek protection from male jinn, but all they have done is increased them in evil practices, |
| 72:7 | | and they believed as you believed that Allah will not resurrect anyone. |
| 72:8 | | When we snooped at the secrets of the sky, we found it was full of powerful guards and comets. |
| 72:9 | | We sat in there waiting to eavesdrop, but now whoever listens in will have comets lying in wait for him. |
| 72:10 | | So we don’t know whether it is evil that is intended for those on Earth, or if their Lord wishes to guide them. |
| 72:11 | | Some of us righteous and others not so, we follow many different paths, |
| 72:12 | | and we know we won’t frustrate Allah on the Earth, nor manage to run away from Him. |
| 72:13 | | ‘When we heard the guidance, we instantly believed it, and whoever believes in His Lord need not fear loss nor oppression. |
| 72:14 | | Some of us have submitted, and others are unjust. So the one who submits to Him, has received true guidance |
| 72:15 | | The unjust shall be fuel for Hell.’” |
| 72:16 | | Had they remained steadfast on the straight path, We would have given them plenty of water to drink, |
| 72:17 | | so that We could test them regarding it. Whoever turns away from his Lord’s remembrance, He will thrust him into ever-increasing difficulties. |
| 72:18 | | The places of worship are for Allah, so don’t worship anyone beside Allah. |
| 72:19 | | When the servant of Allah stood up to worship Him, they packed around him in crowds |
| 72:20 | | Say: “I worship my Lord, and I don’t associate anyone with Him.” |
| 72:21 | | Say: “I have no control over hurting or benefiting you.” |
| 72:22 | | Say: “No one will save me from Allah, nor will I find a refuge beside Him; |
| 72:23 | | my mission is only to deliver His Messages. Whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger will be in the fire of Hell forever.” |
| 72:24 | | Eventually, when they see what they are promised, they will instantly know who is the weakest helper and the smallest in number. |
| 72:25 | | Say: “I don’t know whether the scourage you are promised is near, or if My Lord has postponed it |
| 72:26 | | He is the Knower of the unseen and doesn’t reveal His secrets to anyone, |
| 72:27 | | except the messengers of His choosing. To protect the messengers, He sends guardians who walk in front and behind them, |
| 72:28 | | to ensure they can freely deliver the messages of their Lord. Allah knows what they have, and He keeps an exact count of all things. |
