إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِۦٓ أَنْ أَنذِرْ قَوْمَكَ مِن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
Innaaa arsalnaa Noohan ilaa qawmihee an anzir qawmaka min qabli any yaatiyahum 'azaabun aleem
We sent Noah to his people: “Warn your people before there comes upon them a painful punishment.”
قَالَ يَـٰقَوْمِ إِنِّى لَكُمْ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ
Qaala yaa qawmi innee lakum nazeerum mubeen
He said, “O my people, I am to you a clear warner
أَنِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱتَّقُوهُ وَأَطِيعُونِ
Ani'udul laaha watta qoohu wa atee'oon
Worship God and reverence Him, and obey me
يَغْفِرْ لَكُم مِّن ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرْكُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى ۚ إِنَّ أَجَلَ ٱللَّهِ إِذَا جَآءَ لَا يُؤَخَّرُ ۖ لَوْ كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
Yaghfir lakum min zunoobikum wa yu'akhkhirkum ilaaa ajalim musammaa; innaa ajalal laahi izaa jaaa'a laa yu'akhkhar; law kuntum ta'lamoon
And He will forgive you of your sins, and reprieve you until a stated term. God’s term cannot be deferred once it has arrived, if you only knew.”
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِى لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا
Qaala rabbi innee da'awtu qawmee lailanw wa naharaa
He said, “My Lord, I have called my people night and day
فَلَمْ يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَآءِىٓ إِلَّا فِرَارًا
Falam yazid hum du'aaa 'eee illaa firaaraa
But my call added only to their flight
وَإِنِّى كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوٓا۟ أَصَـٰبِعَهُمْ فِىٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَٱسْتَغْشَوْا۟ ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَصَرُّوا۟ وَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ ٱسْتِكْبَارًا
Wa inee kullamaa da'awtuhum litaghfira lahum ja'alooo asaabi'ahum fee aazaanihim wastaghshaw siyaabahum wa asaarroo wastakbarus tikbaaraa
Whenever I called them to Your forgiveness, they thrust their fingers into their ears, and wrapped themselves in their garments, and insisted, and became more and more arrogant
ثُمَّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُهُمْ جِهَارًا
Summa innee da'aw tuhum jihaara
Then I called them openly
ثُمَّ إِنِّىٓ أَعْلَنتُ لَهُمْ وَأَسْرَرْتُ لَهُمْ إِسْرَارًا
Summaa inneee a'lantu lahum wa asrartu lahum israaraa
Then I appealed to them publicly, and I spoke to them privately
فَقُلْتُ ٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ غَفَّارًا
Faqultus taghfiroo Rabakam innahoo kaana Ghaffaaraa
I said, ‘Ask your Lord for forgiveness; He is Forgiving
يُرْسِلِ ٱلسَّمَآءَ عَلَيْكُم مِّدْرَارًا
Yursilis samaaa'a 'alaikum midraaraa
He will let loose the sky upon you in torrents
وَيُمْدِدْكُم بِأَمْوَٰلٍ وَبَنِينَ وَيَجْعَل لَّكُمْ جَنَّـٰتٍ وَيَجْعَل لَّكُمْ أَنْهَـٰرًا
Wa yumdidkum bi am waalinw wa baneena wa yaj'al lakum Jannaatinw wa yaj'al lakum anhaaraa
And provide you with wealth and children, and allot for you gardens, and allot for you rivers
مَّا لَكُمْ لَا تَرْجُونَ لِلَّهِ وَقَارًا
Maa lakum laa tarjoona lillaahi waqaaraa
What is the matter with you, that you do not appreciate God’s Greatness
وَقَدْ خَلَقَكُمْ أَطْوَارًا
Wa qad khalaqakum at waaraa
Although He created you in stages
أَلَمْ تَرَوْا۟ كَيْفَ خَلَقَ ٱللَّهُ سَبْعَ سَمَـٰوَٰتٍ طِبَاقًا
Alam taraw kaifa khalaqal laahu sab'a samaawaatin tibaaqaa
Do you not realize that God created seven heavens in layers
وَجَعَلَ ٱلْقَمَرَ فِيهِنَّ نُورًا وَجَعَلَ ٱلشَّمْسَ سِرَاجًا
Wa ja'alal qamara feehinna nooranw wa ja'alash shamsa siraajaa
And He set the moon in their midst for light, and He made the sun a lamp
وَٱللَّهُ أَنۢبَتَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ نَبَاتًا
Wallaahu ambatakum minal ardi nabaataa
And God germinated you from the earth like plants
ثُمَّ يُعِيدُكُمْ فِيهَا وَيُخْرِجُكُمْ إِخْرَاجًا
Summa yu'eedukum feehaa wa ukhrijukum ikhraajaa
Then He will return you into it, and will bring you out again
وَٱللَّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ بِسَاطًا
Wallaahu ja'ala lakumul arda bisaataa
And God made the earth a spread for you
لِّتَسْلُكُوا۟ مِنْهَا سُبُلًا فِجَاجًا
Litaslukoo minhaa subulan fijaajaa
That you may travel its diverse roads.’”
قَالَ نُوحٌ رَّبِّ إِنَّهُمْ عَصَوْنِى وَٱتَّبَعُوا۟ مَن لَّمْ يَزِدْهُ مَالُهُۥ وَوَلَدُهُۥٓ إِلَّا خَسَارًا
Qaala Noohur Robbi innahum 'asawnee wattaba'oo mal lam yazid hu maaluhoo wa waladuhooo illaa khasaara
Noah said, “My Lord, they have defied me, and followed him whose wealth and children increase him only in perdition.”
وَمَكَرُوا۟ مَكْرًا كُبَّارًا
Wa makaroo makran kubbaaraa
And they schemed outrageous schemes
وَقَالُوا۟ لَا تَذَرُنَّ ءَالِهَتَكُمْ وَلَا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَلَا سُوَاعًا وَلَا يَغُوثَ وَيَعُوقَ وَنَسْرًا
Wa qaaloo laa tazarunna aalihatakum wa laa tazarunna Waddanw wa laa Suwaa'anw wa laa Yaghoosa wa Ya'ooqa wa Nasraa
And they said, “Do not give up your gods; do not give up Wadd, nor Souwa, nor Yaghoos, and Yaooq, and Nassr
وَقَدْ أَضَلُّوا۟ كَثِيرًا ۖ وَلَا تَزِدِ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ إِلَّا ضَلَـٰلًا
Wa qad adalloo kasee ranw wa laa tazidiz zaalimeena illaa dalaalaa
They have misled many, so do not increase the wrongdoers except in confusion.”
مِّمَّا خَطِيٓـَٔـٰتِهِمْ أُغْرِقُوا۟ فَأُدْخِلُوا۟ نَارًا فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا۟ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَنصَارًا
Mimmaa khateee' aatihim ughriqoo fa udkhiloo Naaran falam yajidoo lahum min doonil laahi ansaaraa
Because of their wrongs, they were drowned, and were hurled into a Fire. They did not find apart from God any helpers
وَقَالَ نُوحٌ رَّبِّ لَا تَذَرْ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنَ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ دَيَّارًا
Wa qaala Noohur Rabbi laa tazar 'alal ardi minal kaafireena daiyaaraa
Noah said, “My Lord, do not leave of the unbelievers a single dweller on earth
إِنَّكَ إِن تَذَرْهُمْ يُضِلُّوا۟ عِبَادَكَ وَلَا يَلِدُوٓا۟ إِلَّا فَاجِرًا كَفَّارًا
Innaka in tazarhum yudil loo 'ibaadaka wa laa yalidooo illaa faajiran kaffaaraa
If You leave them, they will mislead your servants, and will breed only wicked unbelievers
رَّبِّ ٱغْفِرْ لِى وَلِوَٰلِدَىَّ وَلِمَن دَخَلَ بَيْتِىَ مُؤْمِنًا وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ وَلَا تَزِدِ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ إِلَّا تَبَارًۢا
Rabbigh fir lee wa liwaa lidaiya wa liman dakhala baitiya mu'minanw wa lil mu'mineena wal mu'minaati wa laa tazidiz zaalimeena illaa tabaaraa
My Lord! Forgive me and my parents, and anyone who enters my home in faith, and all the believing men and believing women; and do not increase the wrongdoers except in perdition.”
