اِذۡ نَجَّيۡنٰهُ وَاَهۡلَهٗۤ اَجۡمَعِيۡنَۙ ١٣٤
37:134When We saved him and his household, every one,
اِلَّا عَجُوۡزًا فِى الۡغٰبِرِيۡنَ ١٣٥
37:135Save an old woman among those who stayed behind;
ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا الۡاٰخَرِيۡنَ ١٣٦
37:136Then We destroyed the others.
وَاِنَّكُمۡ لَتَمُرُّوۡنَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ مُّصۡبِحِيۡنَۙ ١٣٧
37:137And lo! ye verily pass by (the ruin of) them in the morning
وَبِالَّيۡلِؕ اَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُوۡنَ ١٣٨
37:138And at night-time; have ye then no sense?
وَاِنَّ يُوۡنُسَ لَمِنَ الۡمُرۡسَلِيۡنَؕ ١٣٩
37:139And lo! Jonah verily was of those sent (to warn)
اِذۡ اَبَقَ اِلَى الۡفُلۡكِ الۡمَشۡحُوۡنِۙ ١٤٠
37:140When he fled unto the laden ship,
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الۡمُدۡحَضِيۡنَۚ ١٤١
37:141And then drew lots and was of those rejected;
فَالۡتَقَمَهُ الۡحُوۡتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيۡمٌ ١٤٢
37:142And the fish swallowed him while he was blameworthy;
فَلَوۡلَاۤ اَنَّهٗ كَانَ مِنَ الۡمُسَبِّحِيۡنَۙ ١٤٣
37:143And had he not been one of those who glorify (Allah)
لَلَبِثَ فِىۡ بَطۡنِهٖۤ اِلٰى يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُوۡنَۚ ١٤٤
37:144He would have tarried in its belly till the day when they are raised;
فَنَبَذۡنٰهُ بِالۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيۡمٌۚ ١٤٥
37:145Then We cast him on a desert shore while he was sick;
وَاَنۡۢبَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةً مِّنۡ يَّقۡطِيۡنٍۚ ١٤٦
37:146And We caused a tree of gourd to grow above him;
وَاَرۡسَلۡنٰهُ اِلٰى مِائَةِ اَلۡفٍ اَوۡ يَزِيۡدُوۡنَۚ ١٤٧
37:147And We sent him to a hundred thousand (folk) or more
فَاٰمَنُوۡا فَمَتَّعۡنٰهُمۡ اِلٰى حِيۡنٍؕ ١٤٨
37:148And they believed, therefor We gave them comfort for a while.
فَاسۡتَفۡتِهِمۡ اَلِرَبِّكَ الۡبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ الۡبَنُوۡنَۙ ١٤٩
37:149Now ask them (O Muhammad): Hath thy Lord daughters whereas they have sons?
اَمۡ خَلَقۡنَا الۡمَلٰٓٮِٕكَةَ اِنَاثًا وَّهُمۡ شٰهِدُوۡنَ ١٥٠
37:150Or created We the angels females while they were present?
اَلَاۤ اِنَّهُمۡ مِّنۡ اِفۡكِهِمۡ لَيَقُوۡلُوۡنَۙ ١٥١
37:151Lo! it is of their falsehood that they say:
وَلَدَ اللّٰهُۙ وَاِنَّهُمۡ لَـكٰذِبُوۡنَ ١٥٢
37:152Allah hath begotten. Allah! verily they tell a lie.
اَصۡطَفَى الۡبَنَاتِ عَلَى الۡبَنِيۡنَؕ ١٥٣
37:153(And again of their falsehood): He hath preferred daughters to sons.
مَا لَـكُمۡ كَيۡفَ تَحۡكُمُوۡنَ ١٥٤
37:154What aileth you? How judge ye?
اَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُوۡنَۚ ١٥٥
37:155Will ye not then reflect?
اَمۡ لَـكُمۡ سُلۡطٰنٌ مُّبِيۡنٌۙ ١٥٦
37:156Or have ye a clear warrant?
فَاۡتُوۡا بِكِتٰبِكُمۡ اِنۡ كُنۡتُمۡ صٰدِقِيۡنَ ١٥٧
37:157Then produce your writ, if ye are truthful.
وَجَعَلُوۡا بَيۡنَهٗ وَبَيۡنَ الۡجِنَّةِ نَسَبًا ؕ وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمَتِ الۡجِنَّةُ اِنَّهُمۡ لَمُحۡضَرُوۡنَۙ ١٥٨
37:158And they imagine kinship between him and the jinn, whereas the jinn know well that they will be brought before (Him).
سُبۡحٰنَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوۡنَۙ ١٥٩
37:159Glorified be Allah from that which they attribute (unto Him),
اِلَّا عِبَادَ اللّٰهِ الۡمُخۡلَصِيۡنَ ١٦٠
37:160Save single-minded slaves of Allah.
