| | Ali Quli Qara'i rendition of Surah The Jinn(al-Jinn)
--- |
|---|
| 72:1 | | Say, ‘It has been revealed to me that a team of the jinn listened [to the Qur’an], and they said, “Indeed we heard a wonderful Qur’an |
| 72:2 | | which guides to rectitude. Hence we have believed in it and we will never ascribe any partner to our Lord |
| 72:3 | | Exalted be the majesty of our Lord, He has taken neither any spouse nor son |
| 72:4 | | Indeed the foolish ones among us used to utter atrocious lies concerning Allah |
| 72:5 | | Indeed we thought that humans and jinn would never utter any falsehood concerning Allah |
| 72:6 | | Indeed some persons from the humans would seek the protection of some persons from the jinn, thus only adding to their rebellion |
| 72:7 | | They thought, just as you think, that Allah will not raise anyone from the dead |
| 72:8 | | Indeed We made for the heaven and found it full of mighty sentries and flames |
| 72:9 | | We used to sit in its positions to eavesdrop, but anyone listening now finds a flame waiting for him |
| 72:10 | | We do not know whether ill is intended for those who are in the earth, or whether their Lord intends good for them |
| 72:11 | | Among us some are righteous and some of us are otherwise: we are multifarious sects |
| 72:12 | | We know that we cannot thwart Allah on the earth, nor can we thwart Him by fleeing |
| 72:13 | | When we heard the [message of] guidance, we believed in it. Whoever that has faith in his Lord shall neither fear any detraction nor oppression |
| 72:14 | | Among us some are muslims and some of us are perverse. Yet those who submit [to Allah] —it is they who pursue rectitude |
| 72:15 | | As for the perverse, they will be firewood for hell.” &rsquo |
| 72:16 | | If they are steadfast on the path [of Allah], We shall provide them with abundant water |
| 72:17 | | so that We may test them therein, and whoever turns away from the remembrance of his Lord, He will let him into an escalating punishment |
| 72:18 | | The places of worship belong to Allah, so do not invoke anyone along with Allah |
| 72:19 | | When the servant of Allah rose to pray to Him, they almost crowded around him |
| 72:20 | | Say, ‘I pray only to my Lord, and I do not ascribe any partner to Him.&rsquo |
| 72:21 | | Say, ‘I have no power to bring you any harm or good [of my own accord].&rsquo |
| 72:22 | | Say, ‘Neither can anyone shelter me from Allah, nor can I find any refuge besides Him |
| 72:23 | | [I have no duty] except to transmit from Allah, and [to communicate] His messages; and whoever disobeys Allah and His apostle, indeed there will be for him the fire of hell, to remain in it forever.&rsquo |
| 72:24 | | When they see what they are promised, they will then know who is weaker in supporters and fewer in numbers |
| 72:25 | | Say, ‘I do not know if what you are promised is near, or if my Lord has set a term for it.&rsquo |
| 72:26 | | Knower of the Unseen, He does not disclose His Unseen to anyone |
| 72:27 | | except to an apostle He approves of. Then He dispatches a sentinel before and behind hi |
| 72:28 | | so that He may ascertain that they have communicated the messages of their Lord, and He comprehends all that is with them, and He keeps count of all things |
