96:1
Read in the Name of your Lord who created;
96:2
created man from a clinging mass.
96:3
Read, and your Lord is the most generous,
96:4
who taught by the pen,
96:5
taught man what he did not know.
96:6
Indeed man becomes rebellious
96:7
when he considers himself without need.
96:8
Indeed to your Lord is the return.
96:9
Tell me, he who forbids
96:10
a servant when he prays,
96:11
tell me, should he be on [true] guidance,
96:12
or bid [others] to Godwariness,
96:13
tell me, should he call him a liar and turn away
96:14
—does he not know that Allah sees [him]?
96:15
No indeed! If he does not cease, We shall seize him by the forelock,
96:16
a lying, sinful forelock!
96:17
Then let him call out his gang!
96:18
We [too] shall call the keepers of hell.
96:19
No indeed! Do not obey him, but prostrate and draw near [to Allah]!
