Alhamdu lillahi allathee khalaqa alssamawati waal-arda wajaAAala alththulumati waalnnoora thumma allatheena kafaroo birabbihim yaAAdiloona\n1. Praise be to God,\n Who created the heavens\n And the earth,\n And made the Darkness\n And the Light.\n Yet those who reject Faith\n Hold (others) as equal.\n With their Guardian-Lord.\n2. Huwa allathee khalaqakum min teenin thumma qada ajalan waajalun musamman AAindahu thumma antum tamtaroona\n2. He it is Who created\n You from clay, and then\n Decreed a stated term\n (For you). And there is\n In His Presence another\n Determined term; yet\n Ye doubt within yourselves!\n3. Wahuwa Allahu fee alssamawati wafee al-ardi yaAAlamu sirrakum wajahrakum wayaAAlamu ma taksiboona\n3. And He is God\n In the heavens\n And on earth.\n He knoweth what ye\n Hide, and what ye reveal,\n And He knoweth\n The (recompense) which\n Ye earn (by your deeds)\n4. Wama ta/teehim min ayatin min ayati rabbihim illa kanoo AAanha muAArideena\n4. But never did a single\n One of the Signs\n Of their Lord reach them,\n But they turned\n Away therefrom.\n5. Faqad kaththaboo bialhaqqi lamma jaahum fasawfa ya/teehim anbao ma kanoo bihi yastahzi-oona\n5. And now they reject\n The truth when it reaches\n Them: but soon shall they\n Learn the reality of what\n They used to mock at.\n6. Alam yaraw kam ahlakna min qablihim min qarnin makkannahum fee al-ardi ma lam numakkin lakum waarsalna alssamaa AAalayhim midraran wajaAAalna al-anhara tajree min tahtihim faahlaknahum bithunoobihim waansha/na min baAAdihim qarnan akhareena\n6. See they not how many\n Of those before them\n We did destroy?\u2014\n Generations We had established\n On the earth, in strength\n Such as We have not given\n To you\u2014for whom\n We poured out rain\n From the skies in abundance,\n And gave (fertile) streams\n Flowing beneath their (feet):\n Yet for their sins\n We destroyed them,\n And raised in their wake\n Fresh generations\n (To succeed them).\n7. Walaw nazzalna AAalayka kitaban fee qirtasin falamasoohu bi-aydeehim laqala allatheena kafaroo in hatha illa sihrun mubeenun\n7. If We had sent\n Unto thee a written\n (Message) on parchment,\n So that they could\n Touch it with their hands,\n The Unbelievers would\n Have been sure to say:\n \"This is nothing but\nObvious magic!\"\n8. Waqaloo lawla onzila AAalayhi malakun walaw anzalna malakan laqudiya al-amru thumma la yuntharoona\n8. They say: \"Why is not\n An angel sent down to him?\"\n If We did send down\n An angel, the matter\n Would be settled at once,\n And no respite\n Would be granted them.\n9. Walaw jaAAalnahu malakan lajaAAalnahu rajulan walalabasna AAalayhim ma yalbisoona\n9. If We had made it\n An angel, We should\n Have sent him as a man,\n And We should certainly\n Have caused them confusion\n In a matter which they have\n Already covered with confusion.\n10. Walaqadi istuhzi-a birusulin min qablika fahaqa biallatheena sakhiroo minhum ma kanoo bihi yastahzi-oona\n10. Mocked were (many)\n Apostles before thee;\n But their scoffers\n Were hemmed in\n By the thing that they mocked.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra VI.: An\u2019\u0101m, or Cattle.: Section 1 (1-10)","type":"page"}
