وَبُرِّزَتِ الۡجَحِيۡمُ لِلۡغٰوِيۡنَۙ ٩١
26:91And hell will appear plainly to the erring.
وَقِيۡلَ لَهُمۡ اَيۡنَمَا كُنۡتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُوۡنَۙ ٩٢
26:92And it will be said unto them: Where is (all) that ye used to worship
مِنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِؕ هَلۡ يَنۡصُرُوۡنَكُمۡ اَوۡ يَنۡتَصِرُوۡنَؕ ٩٣
26:93Instead of Allah? Can they help you or help themselves?
فَكُبۡكِبُوۡا فِيۡهَا هُمۡ وَالۡغَاوٗنَۙ ٩٤
26:94Then will they be hurled therein, they and the seducers
وَجُنُوۡدُ اِبۡلِيۡسَ اَجۡمَعُوۡنَؕ ٩٥
26:95And the hosts of Iblis, together.
قَالُوۡا وَهُمۡ فِيۡهَا يَخۡتَصِمُوۡنَۙ ٩٦
26:96And they will say, when they are quarrelling therein:
تَاللّٰهِ اِنۡ كُنَّا لَفِىۡ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِيۡنٍۙ ٩٧
26:97By Allah, of a truth we were in error manifest
اِذۡ نُسَوِّيۡكُمۡ بِرَبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَ ٩٨
26:98When we made you equal with the Lord of the Worlds.
وَمَاۤ اَضَلَّنَاۤ اِلَّا الۡمُجۡرِمُوۡنَ ٩٩
26:99It was but the guilty who misled us.
فَمَا لَـنَا مِنۡ شٰفِعِيۡنَۙ ١٠٠
26:100Now we have no intercessors
وَلَا صَدِيۡقٍ حَمِيۡمٍ ١٠١
26:101Nor any loving friend.
فَلَوۡ اَنَّ لَـنَا كَرَّةً فَنَكُوۡنَ مِنَ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ ١٠٢
26:102Oh, that we had another turn (on earth), that we might be of the believers!
اِنَّ فِىۡ ذٰ لِكَ لَاٰيَةً ؕ وَّمَا كَانَ اَكۡثَرُهُمۡ مُّؤۡمِنِيۡنَ ١٠٣
26:103Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers!
وَاِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الۡعَزِيۡزُ الرَّحِيۡمُ ١٠٤
26:104And lo, thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful.
كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ نُوۡحِࣙ الۡمُرۡسَلِيۡنَ ۖۚ ١٠٥
26:105Noah's folk denied the messengers (of Allah),
اِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ اَخُوۡهُمۡ نُوۡحٌ اَلَا تَتَّقُوۡنَۚ ١٠٦
26:106When their brother Noah said unto them: Will ye not ward off (evil)?
اِنِّىۡ لَـكُمۡ رَسُوۡلٌ اَمِيۡنٌۙ ١٠٧
26:107Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you,
فَاتَّقُوۡا اللّٰهَ وَ اَطِيۡعُوۡنِۚ ١٠٨
26:108So keep your duty to Allah, and obey me.
وَمَاۤ اَسۡـــَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ اَجۡرٍۚ اِنۡ اَجۡرِىَ اِلَّا عَلٰى رَبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَۚ ١٠٩
26:109And I ask of you no wage therefor; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds.
فَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِيۡعُوۡنِؕ ١١٠
26:110So keep your duty to Allah, and obey me.
قَالُوۡۤا اَنُؤۡمِنُ لَكَ وَاتَّبَعَكَ الۡاَرۡذَلُوۡنَؕ ١١١
26:111They said: Shall we put faith in thee, when the lowest (of the people) follow thee?
قَالَ وَمَا عِلۡمِىۡ بِمَا كَانُوۡا يَعۡمَلُوۡنَۚ ١١٢
26:112He said: And what knowledge have I of what they may have been doing (in the past)?
اِنۡ حِسَابُهُمۡ اِلَّا عَلٰى رَبِّىۡ لَوۡ تَشۡعُرُوۡنَۚ ١١٣
26:113Lo! their reckoning is my Lord's concern, if ye but knew;
وَمَاۤ اَنَا بِطَارِدِ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَۚ ١١٤
26:114And I am not (here) to repulse believers.
اِنۡ اَنَا اِلَّا نَذِيۡرٌ مُّبِيۡنٌؕ ١١٥
26:115I am only a plain warner.
قَالُوۡا لَٮِٕنۡ لَّمۡ تَنۡتَهِ يٰـنُوۡحُ لَـتَكُوۡنَنَّ مِنَ الۡمَرۡجُوۡمِيۡنَؕ ١١٦
26:116They said: If thou cease not, O Noah, thou wilt surely be among those stoned (to death).
قَالَ رَبِّ اِنَّ قَوۡمِىۡ كَذَّبُوۡنِ ۖۚ ١١٧
26:117He said: My Lord! Lo! my own folk deny me.
