T\u0101. S\u012bn. M\u012bm.\n2. Tilka ayatu alkitabi almubeeni\n2. These are Verses of the Book\n That makes (things) clear.\n3. Natloo AAalayka min naba-i moosa wafirAAawna bialhaqqi liqawmin yu/minoona\n3. We rehearse to thee some\n Of the story of Moses\n And Pharaoh in Truth,\n For people who believe.\n4. Inna firAAawna AAala fee al-ardi wajaAAala ahlaha shiyaAAan yastadAAifu ta-ifatan minhum yuthabbihu abnaahum wayastahyee nisaahum innahu kana mina almufsideena\n4. Truly Pharaoh elated himself\n In the land and broke up\n Its people into sections,\n Depressing a small group\n Among them: their sons he slew,\n But he kept alive their females:\n For he was indeed\n A maker of mischief.\n5. Wanureedu an namunna AAala allatheena istudAAifoo fee al-ardi wanajAAalahum a-immatan wanajAAalahumu alwaritheena\n5. And We wished to be\n Gracious to those who were\n Being depressed in the land,\n To make them leaders (in faith)\n And make them heirs,\n6. Wanumakkina lahum fee al-ardi wanuriya firAAawna wahamana wajunoodahuma minhum ma kanoo yahtharoona\n6. To establish a firm place\n For them in the land,\n And to show Pharaoh, Haman,\n And their hosts, at their hands,\n The very things against which\n They were taking precautions.\n7. Waawhayna ila ommi moosa an ardiAAeehi fa-itha khifti AAalayhi faalqeehi fee alyammi wala takhafee wala tahzanee inna raddoohu ilayki wajaAAiloohu mina almursaleena\n7. So We sent this inspiration\n To the mother of Moses:\n \"Suckle (thy child), but when\n Thou hast fears about him,\n Cast him into the river,\n But fear not nor grieve:\n For We shall restore him\n To thee, and We shall make\n Him one of Our apostles.\"\n8. Failtaqatahu alu firAAawna liyakoona lahum AAaduwwan wahazanan inna firAAawna wahamana wajunoodahuma kanoo khati-eena\n8. Then the people of Pharaoh\n Picked him up (from the river):\n (It was intended) that (Moses)\n Should be to them an adversary\n And a cause of sorrow:\n For Pharaoh and Haman\n And (all) their hosts were\n Men of sin.\n9. Waqalati imraatu firAAawna qurratu AAaynin lee walaka la taqtuloohu AAasa an yanfaAAana aw nattakhithahu waladan wahum la yashAAuroona\n9. The wife of Pharaoh said:\n \"(Here is) a joy of the eye,'\n For me and for thee:\n Slay him not. It may be\nThat he will be of use\n To us, or we may adopt\n Him as a son.\" And they\n Perceived not (what they\n Were doing)!\n10. Waasbaha fu-adu ommi moosa farighan in kadat latubdee bihi lawla an rabatna AAala qalbiha litakoona mina almu/mineena\n10. But there came to be\n A void in the heart\n Of the mother of Moses:\n She was going almost to\n Disclose his (case), had We\n Not strengthened her heart\n (With faith), so that she\n Might remain a (firm) believer.\n11. Waqalat li-okhtihi qusseehi fabasurat bihi AAan junubin wahum la yashAAuroona\n11. And she said to the sister\n Of (Moses), \"Follow him\".\n So she (the sister) watched him\n In the character of a stranger.\n And they knew not.\n12. Waharramna AAalayhi almaradiAAa min qablu faqalat hal adullukum AAala ahli baytin yakfuloonahu lakum wahum lahu nasihoona\n12. And We ordained that he\n Refused suck at first, until\n (His sister came up\n And) said: \"Shall I\n Point out to you the people\n Of a house that will nourish\n And bring him up for you'\"\n And be sincerely attached\n To him?\"...\n13. Faradadnahu ila ommihi kay taqarra AAaynuha wala tahzana walitaAAlama anna waAAda Allahi haqqun walakinna aktharahum la yaAAlamoona\n13. Thus did We restore him\n To his mother, that her eye\n Might be comforted, that she\n Might not grieve, and that\n She might know that the promise\n Of God is true: but\n Most of them do not understand.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XXVIII.: Qa\u1e63a\u1e63, or the N...","type":"page"}
