43. Az-Zukhruf

الزُّخْرُفِ

وَمَا نُرٖیهِمْ مِنْ اٰیَةٍ اِلَّا هِیَ اَكْبَرُ مِنْ اُخْتِهَاؗ وَاَخَذْنَاهُمْ بِالْعَذَابِ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَرْجِعُونَ

And We showed them not a sign except that it was greater than its sister, and We seized them with affliction that perhaps they might return [to faith]

Saheeh Intl

وَقَالُوا یَٓا اَیُّهَ السَّاحِرُ ادْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ بِمَا عَهِدَ عِنْدَكَ اِنَّنَا لَمُهْتَدُونَ

And they said [to Moses], "O magician, invoke for us your Lord by what He has promised you. Indeed, we will be guided

Saheeh Intl

فَلَمَّا كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابَ اِذَا هُمْ یَنْكُثُونَ

But when We removed from them the affliction, at once they broke their word

Saheeh Intl

وَنَادٰى فِرْعَوْنُ فٖی قَوْمِهٖ قَالَ یَا قَوْمِ اَلَیْسَ لٖی مُلْكُ مِصْرَ وَهٰذِهِ الْاَنْهَارُ تَجْرٖی مِنْ تَحْتٖیۚ اَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَؕ

And Pharaoh called out among his people; he said, "O my people, does not the kingdom of Egypt belong to me, and these rivers flowing beneath me; then do you not see

Saheeh Intl

اَمْ اَنَا𐻾 خَیْرٌ مِنْ هٰذَا الَّذٖی هُوَ مَهٖینٌ وَلَا یَكَادُ یُبٖینُ

Or am I [not] better than this one who is insignificant and hardly makes himself clear

Saheeh Intl

فَلَوْلَٓا اُلْقِیَ عَلَیْهِ اَسْوِرَةٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ اَوْ جَٓاءَ مَعَهُ الْمَلٰٓئِكَةُ مُقْتَرِنٖینَ

Then why have there not been placed upon him bracelets of gold or come with him the angels in conjunction

Saheeh Intl

فَاسْتَخَفَّ قَوْمَهُ فَاَطَاعُوهُؕ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمًا فَاسِقٖینَ

So he bluffed his people, and they obeyed him. Indeed, they were [themselves] a people defiantly disobedient [of Allah]

Saheeh Intl

فَلَمَّٓا اٰسَفُونَا انْتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ فَاَغْرَقْنَاهُمْ اَجْمَعٖینَۙ

And when they angered Us, We took retribution from them and drowned them all

Saheeh Intl

فَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ سَلَفًا وَمَثَلًا لِلْاٰخِرٖینَࣖ

And We made them a precedent and an example for the later peoples

Saheeh Intl

وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ابْنُ مَرْیَمَ مَثَلًا اِذَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْهُ یَصِدُّونَ

And when the son of Mary was presented as an example, immediately your people laughed aloud

Saheeh Intl

وَقَالُٓوا ءَاٰلِهَتُنَا خَیْرٌ اَمْ هُوَؕ مَا ضَرَبُوهُ لَكَ اِلَّا جَدَلًاؕ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ خَصِمُونَ

And they said, "Are your gods better, or is he?" They did not present the comparison except for [mere] argument. But, [in fact], they are a people prone to dispute

Saheeh Intl

اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا عَبْدٌ اَنْعَمْنَا عَلَیْهِ وَجَعَلْنَاهُ مَثَلًا لِبَنٖٓی اِسْرَٓایٖٔلَؕ

Jesus was not but a servant upon whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the Children of Israel

Saheeh Intl

وَلَوْ نَشَٓاءُ لَجَعَلْنَا مِنْكُمْ مَلٰٓئِكَةً فِی الْاَرْضِ یَخْلُفُونَ

And if We willed, We could have made [instead] of you angels succeeding [one another] on the earth
