Sūra 36: Yā-Sīn

Section 5 (68-83)


68. Waman nuAAammirhu nunakkis-hu fee alkhalqi afala yaAAqiloona

68. If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: Will they not then understand?


69. Wama AAallamnahu alshshiAAra wama yanbaghee lahu in huwa illa thikrun waqur-anun mubeenun

69. We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this is no less than a Message and a Qur'an making things clear:


70. Liyunthira man kana hayyan wayahiqqa alqawlu AAala alkafireena

70. That it may give admonition to any (who are) alive, and that the charge may be proved against those who reject (Truth).


71. Awa lam yaraw anna khalaqna lahum mimma AAamilat aydeena anAAaman fahum laha malikoona

71. See they not that it is We Who have created for them - among the things which Our hands have fashioned - cattle, which are under their dominion?-


72. Wathallalnaha lahum faminha rakoobuhum waminha ya/kuloona

72. And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat:


73. Walahum feeha manafiAAu wamasharibu afala yashkuroona

73. And they have (other) profits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink. Will they not then be grateful?


74. Waittakhathoo min dooni Allahi alihatan laAAallahum yunsaroona

74. Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped!


75. La yastateeAAoona nasrahum wahum lahum jundun muhdaroona

75. They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned).


76. Fala yahzunka qawluhum inna naAAlamu ma yusirroona wama yuAAlinoona

76. Let not their speech, then, grieve thee. Verily We know what they hide as well as what they disclose.


77. Awa lam yara al-insanu anna khalaqnahu min nutfatin fa-itha huwa khaseemun mubeenun

77. Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open adversary!


78. Wadaraba lana mathalan wanasiya khalqahu qala man yuhyee alAAithama wahiya rameemun

78. And he makes comparisons for Us, and forgets his own (origin and) Creation: He says, "Who can give life to (dry) bones and decomposed ones (at that)?"


79. Qul yuhyeeha allathee anshaaha awwala marratin wahuwa bikulli khalqin AAaleemun

79. Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!-


80. Allathee jaAAala lakum mina alshshajari al-akhdari naran fa-itha antum minhu tooqidoona

80. "The same Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! ye kindle therewith (your own fires)!


81. Awa laysa allathee khalaqa alssamawati waal-arda biqadirin AAala an yakhluqa mithlahum bala wahuwa alkhallaqu alAAaleemu

81. "Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like thereof?" - Yea, indeed! for He is the Creator Supreme, of skill and knowledge (infinite)!


82. Innama amruhu itha arada shay-an an yaqoola lahu kun fayakoonu

82. Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, "be", and it is!


83. Fasubhana allathee biyadihi malakootu kulli shay-in wa-ilayhi turjaAAoona

83. So glory to Him in Whose hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him will ye be all brought back.
