Opening and Prophet's Concern
1 Ta Seen Meem
2 These are the verses of the clear Book
3 Perhaps you would kill yourself with grief that they do not become believers
4 If We willed, We could send down to them from the sky a sign for which their necks would remain bowed in humility
5 And no new reminder comes to them from the Most Merciful except that they turn away from it
6 They have already denied, so there will come to them the news of what they used to ridicule
7 Did they not look at the earth, how much We have grown in it from every noble kind
8 Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not believers
9 And indeed, your Lord is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
Moses and Pharaoh
10 And when your Lord called Moses, Go to the wrongdoing people
11 The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear?
12 He said, My Lord, I fear they will deny me
13 And my chest tightens and my tongue does not express well, so send for Aaron
14 And they have a charge against me, so I fear they will kill me
15 He said, No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening
16 Go to Pharaoh and say, We are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds
17 Send with us the Children of Israel
18 He said, Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life?
19 And you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful
20 Moses said, I did it then while I was of those astray
21 So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me wisdom and made me of the messengers
22 And is this a favor you remind me of that you have enslaved the Children of Israel?
23 Pharaoh said, And what is the Lord of the worlds?
24 Moses said, The Lord of the heavens and earth and what is between them, if you should be certain
25 Pharaoh said to those around him, Do you not hear?
26 Moses said, Your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers
27 Pharaoh said, Indeed, your messenger who has been sent to you is mad
28 Moses said, Lord of the east and the west and what is between them, if you were to reason
29 Pharaoh said, If you take a god other than me, I will surely make you among the imprisoned
30 Moses said, Even if I brought you something clear?
31 Pharaoh said, Then bring it, if you should be of the truthful
32 So Moses threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent, clear
33 And he drew out his hand, and suddenly it was white for the observers
34 Pharaoh said to the chiefs around him, Indeed, this is a learned magician
35 He wants to drive you out of your land by his magic, so what do you advise?
36 They said, Postpone him and his brother and send throughout the cities gatherers
37 Who will bring you every learned, skilled magician
38 So the magicians were assembled for the appointment of a well-known day
39 And it was said to the people, Will you assemble
40 That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant?
41 And when the magicians came, they said to Pharaoh, Will there surely be a reward for us if we are the predominant?
42 He said, Yes, and indeed, you will then be of those near to me
43 Moses said to them, Throw whatever you will throw
44 So they threw their ropes and their staffs and said, By the might of Pharaoh, indeed we are the predominant
45 Then Moses threw his staff, and at once it swallowed up what they falsified
46 So the magicians fell down in prostration
47 They said, We have believed in the Lord of the worlds
48 The Lord of Moses and Aaron
49 Pharaoh said, You believed him before I gave you permission. Indeed, he is your leader who has taught you magic, but you are going to know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will surely crucify you all
50 They said, No harm. Indeed, to our Lord we will return
51 Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers
52 And We inspired to Moses, Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued
53 Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers
54 Indeed, those are but a small band
55 And indeed, they are enraging us
56 And indeed, we are a cautious society
57 So We removed them from gardens and springs
58 And treasures and honorable station
59 Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel
60 So they pursued them at sunrise
61 And when the two groups saw one another, the companions of Moses said, Indeed, we are to be overtaken
62 Moses said, No. Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me
63 Then We inspired to Moses, Strike with your staff the sea, and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain
64 And We advanced thereto the pursuers
65 And We saved Moses and those with him, all together
66 Then We drowned the others
67 Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
68 And indeed, your Lord is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
Abraham and His People
69 And recite to them the story of Abraham
70 When he said to his father and his people What do you worship
71 They said We worship idols and remain devoted to them
72 He said Do they hear you when you call
73 Or do they benefit you or harm you
74 They said But we found our fathers doing thus
75 He said Have you considered what you have been worshipping
76 You and your ancient fathers
77 Indeed they are enemies to me except the Lord of the worlds
78 Who created me and He guides me
79 And who feeds me and gives me drink
80 And when I am ill it is He who cures me
81 And who will cause me to die and then bring me to life
82 And who I hope will forgive my sin on the Day of Judgment
83 My Lord grant me wisdom and join me with the righteous
84 And grant me an honorable mention among later generations
85 And make me of the inheritors of the Garden of Bliss
86 And forgive my father Indeed he has been of those astray
87 And do not disgrace me on the Day they are resurrected
88 The Day when neither wealth nor children will benefit
89 Except one who comes to God with a sound heart
90 And Paradise will be brought near to the righteous
91 And Hellfire will be clearly shown to the deviators
92 And it will be said to them Where are those you used to worship
93 Other than God Can they help you or help themselves
94 So they will be thrown into it they and the deviators
95 And the soldiers of Satan all together
96 They will say while they dispute therein
97 By God we were indeed in clear error
98 When we considered you equal to the Lord of the worlds
99 And none misguided us except the criminals
100 So now we have no intercessors
101 And not a close friend
102 If we only had a return we would be among the believers
103 Indeed in that is a sign but most of them were not to be believers
104 And indeed your Lord He is the Exalted in Might the Merciful
Noah and His People
105 The people of Noah denied the messengers
106 When their brother Noah said to them Will you not fear God

109 And I do not ask you for it any payment My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds
110 So fear God and obey me
111 They said Should we believe you while the lowest people follow you
112 He said And what knowledge do I have of what they used to do
113 Their account is only upon my Lord if you could perceive
114 And I am not one to drive away the believers
115 I am only a clear warner
116 They said If you do not desist O Noah you will surely be of those who are stoned
117 He said My Lord indeed my people have denied me
118 So judge between me and them with decisive judgment and save me and those with me of the believers
119 So We saved him and those with him in the laden ship
120 Then We drowned thereafter the remaining ones
121 Indeed in that is a sign but most of them were not believers
122 And indeed your Lord He is the Exalted in Might the Merciful

132 And fear He who has provided you with what you know
133 He has provided you with livestock and children
134 And gardens and springs
135 Indeed I fear for you the punishment of a terrible day
136 They said It is all the same to us whether you advise or are not of the advisors
137 This is not but the custom of the former peoples
138 And we are not to be punished

146 Will you be left secure in what is here
147 In gardens and springs
148 And crops and palm trees with soft spadix
149 And you carve out of the mountains homes skillfully
150 So fear God and obey me
151 And do not obey the order of the transgressors
152 Who cause corruption in the land and do not reform
153 They said You are only of those bewitched
154 You are but a human like us so bring a sign if you are of the truthful
155 He said This is a she camel For her is a drink and for you is a drink each on a known day
156 And do not touch her with harm lest you be seized by the punishment of a terrible day
157 But they hamstrung her and so became regretful

165 Do you approach males among the worlds
166 And leave what your Lord has created for you as mates But you are a transgressing people
167 They said If you do not desist O Lot you will surely be of those evicted
168 He said Indeed I am to your deed of those who detest
169 My Lord save me and my family from what they do
170 So We saved him and his family all
171 Except an old woman among those who remained behind

The Quran's Divine Origin
192 And indeed it is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds
193 The trustworthy spirit has brought it down
194 Upon your heart that you may be of the warners
195 In a clear Arabic language
196 And indeed it is in the scriptures of former peoples
197 Is it not a sign to them that the scholars of the Children of Israel know it
198 And if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners
199 And he had recited it to them they would not have been believers in it
200 Thus have We inserted it into the hearts of the criminals
201 They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment
202 And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive not
203 And they will say Are we to be given respite
204 So for Our punishment are they impatient
205 Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years
206 Then there came to them that which they were promised
207 They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided
208 And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners
209 As a reminder and We have never been unjust
210 And the devils have not brought it down
211 It is not appropriate for them nor would they be able
212 Indeed they are removed from hearing it
213 So do not invoke with God another deity and thus be among the punished
214 And warn your closest kindred
215 And lower your wing to those who follow you of the believers
216 And if they disobey you then say Indeed I am disassociated from what you are doing
217 And rely upon the Exalted in Might the Merciful
218 Who sees you when you arise
219 And your movement among those who prostrate
220 Indeed He is the Hearing the Knowing
221 Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend
222 They descend upon every sinful liar
223 They pass on what is heard and most of them are liars
224 And the poets the deviators follow them
225 Do you not see that in every valley they roam
226 And that they say what they do not do
227 Except those who believe and do righteous deeds and remember God often and defend after they were wronged And those who have wronged are going to know to what return they will be returned
