سورة الذاريات : The wind that scatters Flashcards
۞ قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ ﴿٣١﴾
He (Ibrahim (a.s.)) said (to The Angels): ‘Then what is your position oh messengers?’
قَالُوا إِنَّا أُرْسِلْنَا إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ ﴿٣٢﴾
They said (The Angels): ‘We are sent to a guilty people (the people of Sodom)’.
لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن طِينٍ ﴿٣٣﴾
So that we may send down upon them stones of clay.
مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ ﴿٣٤﴾
Marked by your Lord for the transgressors.
فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿٣٥﴾
So We let the believers who were there to come out (from danger).
فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍ مِّنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ﴿٣٦﴾
But We did not find in it any muslims except one house from amongst the muslims (the prophet Lut (a.s.)).
وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَا آيَةً لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ ﴿٣٧﴾
And We left in this (event) a sign (of detterance) for those who fear the painful punishment.
وَفِي مُوسَىٰ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَاهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَانٍ مُّبِينٍ ﴿٣٨﴾
And (We left a similar sign) in (the story of) Musa (a.s.) when We sent him (a.s.) to pharoah with a clear proof.
فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِ وَقَالَ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ﴿٣٩﴾
So he turned away along with his chiefs and said: ‘(Musa a.s is ) a magician or a madman’.
فَأَخَذْنَاهُ وَجُنُودَهُ فَنَبَذْنَاهُمْ فِي الْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ ﴿٤٠﴾
So We seized him (pharoah) and his army and we cast them (pharoah and his army) into the sea as he (pharoah) was of culpable (guilty) behaviour.
وَفِي عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ الرِّيحَ الْعَقِيمَ ﴿٤١﴾
And a (similar sign was left) in (the story of) Aad when We sent upon them the wind that was barren (from any benefit).
مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَيْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَالرَّمِيمِ ﴿٤٢﴾
It spared nothing it came upon but rendered it like a stuff smashed by decay.
وَفِي ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ ﴿٤٣﴾
And a (similar sign was left) in (the story of) Thamud when it was said to them: ‘Enjoy yourselves for a while’.
فَعَتَوْا عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّاعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ ﴿٤٤﴾
Then they rebelled against the command of your Lord, so the thunderbolt (of divine punishment) seized them whilst they were looking on.
فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا مِن قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا مُنتَصِرِينَ ﴿٤٥﴾
Then they were neither able to stand (before the punishment) nor could they defend themselves.
وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمًا فَاسِقِينَ ﴿٤٦﴾
And (We have destroyed) the people of Nuh (a.s.) even before. Indeed they were a sinful people.
وَالسَّمَاءَ بَنَيْنَاهَا بِأَيْدٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ ﴿٤٧﴾
And the sky was built by us with might and indeed We are The Expanders.
وَالْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَاهَا فَنِعْمَ الْمَاهِدُونَ ﴿٤٨﴾
And The Earth was spread out by Us as a floor, so how well have We spread it out.
وَمِن كُلِّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿٤٩﴾
And for everything We have created pairs of two’s so that you may take heed.
فَفِرُّوا إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّي لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ ﴿٥٠﴾
So flee towards Allah (s.w.t). Indeed I am a plain warner sent by Him (s.w.t) for you.
وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ ۖ إِنِّي لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ ﴿٥١﴾
And do not make up any other God along with Allah (s.w.t). I am a plain warner sent by Him (s.w.t) for you
كَذَٰلِكَ مَا أَتَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ﴿٥٢﴾
In a similar way, no messenger came to those people before them but they said: ‘He is a magician or madman’.
أَتَوَاصَوْا بِهِ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ ﴿٥٣﴾
Have they handed down (this saying) as a legacy? Rather, they are a rebellious people
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَا أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ ﴿٥٤﴾
So turn away from them for you are not to be blamed.
