Juz 19

English Translation:

And those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Why were not angels sent down to us, or [why] do we [not] see our Lord?" They have certainly become arrogant within themselves and [become] insolent with great insolence

English Translation:

The day they see the angels - no good tidings will there be that day for the criminals, and [the angels] will say, "Prevented and inaccessible

English Translation:

And We will regard what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed

English Translation:

The companions of Paradise, that Day, are [in] a better settlement and better resting place

English Translation:

And [mention] the Day when the heaven will split open with [emerging] clouds, and the angels will be sent down in successive descent

English Translation:

True sovereignty, that Day, is for the Most Merciful. And it will be upon the disbelievers a difficult Day

English Translation:

And the Day the wrongdoer will bite on his hands [in regret] he will say, "Oh, I wish I had taken with the Messenger a way

English Translation:

Oh, woe to me! I wish I had not taken that one as a friend

English Translation:

He led me away from the remembrance after it had come to me. And ever is Satan, to man, a deserter

English Translation:

And the Messenger has said, "O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur'an as [a thing] abandoned

English Translation:

And thus have We made for every prophet an enemy from among the criminals. But sufficient is your Lord as a guide and a helper

English Translation:

And those who disbelieve say, "Why was the Qur'an not revealed to him all at once?" Thus [it is] that We may strengthen thereby your heart. And We have spaced it distinctly

English Translation:

And they do not come to you with an argument except that We bring you the truth and the best explanation

English Translation:

The ones who are gathered on their faces to Hell - those are the worst in position and farthest astray in [their] way

English Translation:

And We had certainly given Moses the Scripture and appointed with him his brother Aaron as an assistant

English Translation:

And We said, "Go both of you to the people who have denied Our signs." Then We destroyed them with [complete] destruction

English Translation:

And the people of Noah - when they denied the messengers, We drowned them, and We made them for mankind a sign. And We have prepared for the wrongdoers a painful punishment

English Translation:

And [We destroyed] 'Aad and Thamud and the companions of the well and many generations between them

English Translation:

And for each We presented examples [as warnings], and each We destroyed with [total] destruction

English Translation:

And they have already come upon the town which was showered with a rain of evil. So have they not seen it? But they are not expecting resurrection

English Translation:

And when they see you, [O Muhammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one whom Allah has sent as a messenger

English Translation:

He almost would have misled us from our gods had we not been steadfast in [worship of] them." But they are going to know, when they see the punishment, who is farthest astray in [his] way

English Translation:

Have you seen the one who takes as his god his own desire? Then would you be responsible for him

English Translation:

Or do you think that most of them hear or reason? They are not except like livestock. Rather, they are [even] more astray in [their] way

English Translation:

Have you not considered your Lord - how He extends the shadow, and if He willed, He could have made it stationary? Then We made the sun for it an indication

English Translation:

Then We hold it in hand for a brief grasp

English Translation:

And it is He who has made the night for you as clothing and sleep [a means for] rest and has made the day a resurrection

English Translation:

And it is He who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy, and We send down from the sky pure water

English Translation:

That We may bring to life thereby a dead land and give it as drink to those We created of numerous livestock and men

English Translation:

And We have certainly distributed it among them that they might be reminded, but most of the people refuse except disbelief

English Translation:

And if We had willed, We could have sent into every city a warner

English Translation:

So do not obey the disbelievers, and strive against them with the Qur'an a great striving

English Translation:

And it is He who has released [simultaneously] the two seas, one fresh and sweet and one salty and bitter, and He placed between them a barrier and prohibiting partition

English Translation:

And it is He who has created from water a human being and made him [a relative by] lineage and marriage. And ever is your Lord competent [concerning creation]

English Translation:

But they worship rather than Allah that which does not benefit them or harm them, and the disbeliever is ever, against his Lord, an assistant [to Satan]

English Translation:

And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a bringer of good tidings and a warner

English Translation:

Say, "I do not ask of you for it any payment - only that whoever wills might take to his Lord a way

English Translation:

And rely upon the Ever-Living who does not die, and exalt [Allah] with His praise. And sufficient is He to be, with the sins of His servants, Acquainted

English Translation:

He who created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six days and then established Himself above the Throne - the Most Merciful, so ask about Him one well informed

English Translation:

And when it is said to them, "Prostrate to the Most Merciful," they say, "And what is the Most Merciful? Should we prostrate to that which you order us?" And it increases them in aversion

English Translation:

Blessed is He who has placed in the sky great stars and placed therein a [burning] lamp and luminous moon

English Translation:

And it is He who has made the night and the day in succession for whoever desires to remember or desires gratitude

English Translation:

And the servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk upon the earth easily, and when the ignorant address them [harshly], they say [words of] peace

English Translation:

And those who spend [part of] the night to their Lord prostrating and standing [in prayer]

English Translation:

And those who say, "Our Lord, avert from us the punishment of Hell. Indeed, its punishment is ever adhering

English Translation:

Indeed, it is evil as a settlement and residence

English Translation:

And [they are] those who, when they spend, do so not excessively or sparingly but are ever, between that, [justly] moderate

English Translation:

And those who do not invoke with Allah another deity or kill the soul which Allah has forbidden [to be killed], except by right, and do not commit unlawful sexual intercourse. And whoever should do that will meet a penalty

English Translation:

Multiplied for him is the punishment on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein humiliated

English Translation:

Except for those who repent, believe and do righteous work. For them Allah will replace their evil deeds with good. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful

English Translation:

And he who repents and does righteousness does indeed turn to Allah with [accepted] repentance

English Translation:

And [they are] those who do not testify to falsehood, and when they pass near ill speech, they pass by with dignity

English Translation:

And those who, when reminded of the verses of their Lord, do not fall upon them deaf and blind

English Translation:

And those who say, "Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us an example for the righteous

English Translation:

Those will be awarded the Chamber for what they patiently endured, and they will be received therein with greetings and [words of] peace

English Translation:

Abiding eternally therein. Good is the settlement and residence

English Translation:

Say, "What would my Lord care for you if not for your supplication?" For you [disbelievers] have denied, so your denial is going to be adherent

English Translation:

Ta, Seen, Meem

English Translation:

These are the verses of the clear Book

English Translation:

Perhaps, [O Muhammad], you would kill yourself with grief that they will not be believers

English Translation:

If We willed, We could send down to them from the sky a sign for which their necks would remain humbled

English Translation:

And no revelation comes to them anew from the Most Merciful except that they turn away from it

English Translation:

For they have already denied, but there will come to them the news of that which they used to ridicule

English Translation:

Did they not look at the earth - how much We have produced therein from every noble kind

English Translation:

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

And [mention] when your Lord called Moses, [saying], "Go to the wrongdoing people

English Translation:

The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allah

English Translation:

He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me

English Translation:

And that my breast will tighten and my tongue will not be fluent, so send for Aaron

English Translation:

And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me

English Translation:

[Allah] said, "No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening

English Translation:

Go to Pharaoh and say, 'We are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

[Commanded to say], "Send with us the Children of Israel

English Translation:

[Pharaoh] said, "Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life

English Translation:

And [then] you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful

English Translation:

[Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray

English Translation:

So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me wisdom and prophethood and appointed me [as one] of the messengers

English Translation:

And is this a favor of which you remind me - that you have enslaved the Children of Israel

English Translation:

Said Pharaoh, "And what is the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

[Moses] said, "The Lord of the heavens and earth and that between them, if you should be convinced

English Translation:

[Pharaoh] said to those around him, "Do you not hear

English Translation:

[Moses] said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers

English Translation:

[Pharaoh] said, "Indeed, your 'messenger' who has been sent to you is mad

English Translation:

[Moses] said, "Lord of the east and the west and that between them, if you were to reason

English Translation:

[Pharaoh] said, "If you take a god other than me, I will surely place you among those imprisoned

English Translation:

[Moses] said, "Even if I brought you proof manifest

English Translation:

[Pharaoh] said, "Then bring it, if you should be of the truthful

English Translation:

So [Moses] threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent manifest

English Translation:

And he drew out his hand; thereupon it was white for the observers

English Translation:

[Pharaoh] said to the eminent ones around him, "Indeed, this is a learned magician

English Translation:

He wants to drive you out of your land by his magic, so what do you advise

English Translation:

They said, "Postpone [the matter of] him and his brother and send among the cities gatherers

English Translation:

Who will bring you every learned, skilled magician

English Translation:

So the magicians were assembled for the appointment of a well-known day

English Translation:

And it was said to the people, "Will you congregate

English Translation:

That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant

English Translation:

And when the magicians arrived, they said to Pharaoh, "Is there indeed for us a reward if we are the predominant

English Translation:

He said, "Yes, and indeed, you will then be of those near [to me]

English Translation:

Moses said to them, "Throw whatever you will throw

English Translation:

So they threw their ropes and their staffs and said, "By the might of Pharaoh, indeed it is we who are predominant

English Translation:

Then Moses threw his staff, and at once it devoured what they falsified

English Translation:

So the magicians fell down in prostration [to Allah]

English Translation:

They said, "We have believed in the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

The Lord of Moses and Aaron

English Translation:

[Pharaoh] said, "You believed Moses 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

English Translation:

They said, "No harm. Indeed, to our Lord we will return

English Translation:

Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers

English Translation:

And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued

English Translation:

Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers

English Translation:

[And said], "Indeed, those are but a small band

English Translation:

And indeed, they are enraging us

English Translation:

And indeed, we are a cautious society

English Translation:

So We removed them from gardens and springs

English Translation:

And treasures and honorable station

English Translation:

Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel

English Translation:

So they pursued them at sunrise

English Translation:

And when the two companies saw one another, the companions of Moses said, "Indeed, we are to be overtaken

English Translation:

[Moses] said, "No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me

English Translation:

Then We inspired to Moses, "Strike with your staff the sea," and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain

English Translation:

And We advanced thereto the pursuers

English Translation:

And We saved Moses and those with him, all together

English Translation:

Then We drowned the others

English Translation:

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

And recite to them the news of Abraham

English Translation:

When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship

English Translation:

They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted

English Translation:

He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate

English Translation:

Or do they benefit you, or do they harm

English Translation:

They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus

English Translation:

He said, "Then do you see what you have been worshipping

English Translation:

You and your ancient forefathers

English Translation:

Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

Who created me, and He [it is who] guides me

English Translation:

And it is He who feeds me and gives me drink

English Translation:

And when I am ill, it is He who cures me

English Translation:

And who will cause me to die and then bring me to life

English Translation:

And who I aspire that He will forgive me my sin on the Day of Recompense

English Translation:

[And he said], "My Lord, grant me authority and join me with the righteous

English Translation:

And grant me a reputation of honor among later generations

English Translation:

And place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Pleasure

English Translation:

And forgive my father. Indeed, he has been of those astray

English Translation:

And do not disgrace me on the Day they are [all] resurrected

English Translation:

The Day when there will not benefit [anyone] wealth or children

English Translation:

But only one who comes to Allah with a sound heart

English Translation:

And Paradise will be brought near [that Day] to the righteous

English Translation:

And Hellfire will be brought forth for the deviators

English Translation:

And it will be said to them, "Where are those you used to worship

English Translation:

Other than Allah? Can they help you or help themselves

English Translation:

So they will be overturned into Hellfire, they and the deviators

English Translation:

And the soldiers of Iblees, all together

English Translation:

They will say while they dispute therein

English Translation:

By Allah, we were indeed in manifest error

English Translation:

When we equated you with the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

And no one misguided us except the criminals

English Translation:

So now we have no intercessors

English Translation:

And not a devoted friend

English Translation:

Then if we only had a return [to the world] and could be of the believers

English Translation:

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

The people of Noah denied the messengers

English Translation:

When their brother Noah said to them, "Will you not fear Allah

English Translation:

Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

They said, "Should we believe you while you are followed by the lowest [class of people]

English Translation:

He said, "And what is my knowledge of what they used to do

English Translation:

Their account is only upon my Lord, if you [could] perceive

English Translation:

And I am not one to drive away the believers

English Translation:

I am only a clear warner

English Translation:

They said, "If you do not desist, O Noah, you will surely be of those who are stoned

English Translation:

He said, "My Lord, indeed my people have denied me

English Translation:

Then judge between me and them with decisive judgement and save me and those with me of the believers

English Translation:

So We saved him and those with him in the laden ship

English Translation:

Then We drowned thereafter the remaining ones

English Translation:

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

Aad denied the messengers

English Translation:

When their brother Hud said to them, "Will you not fear Allah

English Translation:

Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

Do you construct on every elevation a sign, amusing yourselves

English Translation:

And take for yourselves palaces and fortresses that you might abide eternally

English Translation:

And when you strike, you strike as tyrants

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

And fear He who provided you with that which you know

English Translation:

Provided you with grazing livestock and children

English Translation:

And gardens and springs

English Translation:

Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a terrible day

English Translation:

They said, "It is all the same to us whether you advise or are not of the advisors

English Translation:

This is not but the custom of the former peoples

English Translation:

And we are not to be punished

English Translation:

And they denied him, so We destroyed them. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

Thamud denied the messengers

English Translation:

When their brother Salih said to them, "Will you not fear Allah

English Translation:

Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

Will you be left in what is here, secure [from death]

English Translation:

Within gardens and springs

English Translation:

And fields of crops and palm trees with softened fruit

English Translation:

And you carve out of the mountains, homes, with skill

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

And do not obey the order of the transgressors

English Translation:

Who cause corruption in the land and do not amend

English Translation:

They said, "You are only of those affected by magic

English Translation:

You are but a man like ourselves, so bring a sign, if you should be of the truthful

English Translation:

He said, "This is a she-camel. For her is a [time of] drink, and for you is a [time of] drink, [each] on a known day

English Translation:

And do not touch her with harm, lest you be seized by the punishment of a terrible day

English Translation:

But they hamstrung her and so became regretful

English Translation:

And the punishment seized them. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

The people of Lot denied the messengers

English Translation:

When their brother Lot said to them, "Will you not fear Allah

English Translation:

Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

Do you approach males among the worlds

English Translation:

And leave what your Lord has created for you as mates? But you are a people transgressing

English Translation:

They said, "If you do not desist, O Lot, you will surely be of those evicted

English Translation:

He said, "Indeed, I am, toward your deed, of those who detest [it]

English Translation:

My Lord, save me and my family from [the consequence of] what they do

English Translation:

So We saved him and his family, all

English Translation:

Except an old woman among those who remained behind

English Translation:

Then We destroyed the others

English Translation:

And We rained upon them a rain [of stones], and evil was the rain of those who were warned

English Translation:

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

The companions of the thicket denied the messengers

English Translation:

When Shu'ayb said to them, "Will you not fear Allah

English Translation:

Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger

English Translation:

So fear Allah and obey me

English Translation:

And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

Give full measure and do not be of those who cause loss

English Translation:

And weigh with an even balance

English Translation:

And do not deprive people of their due and do not commit abuse on earth, spreading corruption

English Translation:

And fear He who created you and the former creation

English Translation:

They said, "You are only of those affected by magic

English Translation:

You are but a man like ourselves, and indeed, we think you are among the liars

English Translation:

So cause to fall upon us fragments of the sky, if you should be of the truthful

English Translation:

He said, "My Lord is most knowing of what you do

English Translation:

And they denied him, so the punishment of the day of the black cloud seized them. Indeed, it was the punishment of a terrible day

English Translation:

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers

English Translation:

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

And indeed, the Qur'an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down

English Translation:

Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] - that you may be of the warners

English Translation:

In a clear Arabic language

English Translation:

And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples

English Translation:

And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel

English Translation:

And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners

English Translation:

And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it

English Translation:

Thus have We inserted disbelief into the hearts of the criminals

English Translation:

They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment

English Translation:

And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not

English Translation:

And they will say, "May we be reprieved

English Translation:

So for Our punishment are they impatient

English Translation:

Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years

English Translation:

And then there came to them that which they were promised

English Translation:

They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided

English Translation:

And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners

English Translation:

As a reminder; and never have We been unjust

English Translation:

And the devils have not brought the revelation down

English Translation:

It is not allowable for them, nor would they be able

English Translation:

Indeed they, from [its] hearing, are removed

English Translation:

So do not invoke with Allah another deity and [thus] be among the punished

English Translation:

And warn, [O Muhammad], your closest kindred

English Translation:

And lower your wing to those who follow you of the believers

English Translation:

And if they disobey you, then say, "Indeed, I am disassociated from what you are doing

English Translation:

And rely upon the Exalted in Might, the Merciful

English Translation:

Who sees you when you arise

English Translation:

And your movement among those who prostrate

English Translation:

Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing

English Translation:

Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend

English Translation:

They descend upon every sinful liar

English Translation:

They pass on what is heard, and most of them are liars

English Translation:

And the poets - [only] the deviators follow them

English Translation:

Do you not see that in every valley they roam

English Translation:

And that they say what they do not do

English Translation:

Except those [poets] who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allah often and defend [the Muslims] after they were wronged. And those who have wronged are going to know to what [kind of] return they will be returned

English Translation:

Ta, Seen. These are the verses of the Qur'an and a clear Book

English Translation:

As guidance and good tidings for the believers

English Translation:

Who establish prayer and give zakah, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith]

English Translation:

Indeed, for those who do not believe in the Hereafter, We have made pleasing to them their deeds, so they wander blindly

English Translation:

Those are the ones for whom there will be the worst of punishment, and in the Hereafter they are the greatest losers

English Translation:

And indeed, [O Muhammad], you receive the Qur'an from one Wise and Knowing

English Translation:

[Mention] when Moses said to his family, "Indeed, I have perceived a fire. I will bring you from there information or will bring you a burning torch that you may warm yourselves

English Translation:

But when he came to it, he was called, "Blessed is whoever is at the fire and whoever is around it. And exalted is Allah, Lord of the worlds

English Translation:

O Moses, indeed it is I - Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise

English Translation:

And [he was told], "Throw down your staff." But when he saw it writhing as if it were a snake, he turned in flight and did not return. [Allah said], "O Moses, fear not. Indeed, in My presence the messengers do not fear

English Translation:

Otherwise, he who wrongs, then substitutes good after evil - indeed, I am Forgiving and Merciful

English Translation:

And put your hand into the opening of your garment [at the breast]; it will come out white without disease. [These are] among the nine signs [you will take] to Pharaoh and his people. Indeed, they have been a people defiantly disobedient

English Translation:

But when there came to them Our visible signs, they said, "This is obvious magic

English Translation:

And they rejected them, while their [inner] selves were convinced thereof, out of injustice and haughtiness. So see how was the end of the corrupters

English Translation:

And We had certainly given to David and Solomon knowledge, and they said, "Praise [is due] to Allah, who has favored us over many of His believing servants

English Translation:

And Solomon inherited David. He said, "O people, we have been taught the language of birds, and we have been given from all things. Indeed, this is evident bounty

English Translation:

And gathered for Solomon were his soldiers of the jinn and men and birds, and they were [marching] in rows

English Translation:

Until, when they came upon the valley of the ants, an ant said, "O ants, enter your dwellings that you not be crushed by Solomon and his soldiers while they perceive not

English Translation:

So [Solomon] smiled, amused at her speech, and said, "My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And admit me by Your mercy into [the ranks of] Your righteous servants

English Translation:

And he took attendance of the birds and said, "Why do I not see the hoopoe - or is he among the absent

English Translation:

I will surely punish him with a severe punishment or slaughter him unless he brings me clear authorization

English Translation:

But the hoopoe stayed not long and said, "I have encompassed [in knowledge] that which you have not encompassed, and I have come to you from Sheba with certain news

English Translation:

Indeed, I found [there] a woman ruling them, and she has been given of all things, and she has a great throne

English Translation:

I found her and her people prostrating to the sun instead of Allah, and Satan has made their deeds pleasing to them and averted them from [His] way, so they are not guided

English Translation:

[And] so they do not prostrate to Allah, who brings forth what is hidden within the heavens and the earth and knows what you conceal and what you declare

English Translation:

Allah - there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Great Throne

English Translation:

[Solomon] said, "We will see whether you were truthful or were of the liars

English Translation:

Take this letter of mine and deliver it to them. Then leave them and see what [answer] they will return

English Translation:

She said, "O eminent ones, indeed, to me has been delivered a noble letter

English Translation:

Indeed, it is from Solomon, and indeed, it reads: 'In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful

English Translation:

Be not haughty with me but come to me in submission [as Muslims]

English Translation:

She said, "O eminent ones, advise me in my affair. I would not decide a matter until you witness [for] me

English Translation:

They said, "We are men of strength and of great military might, but the command is yours, so see what you will command

English Translation:

She said, "Indeed kings - when they enter a city, they ruin it and render the honored of its people humbled. And thus do they do

English Translation:

But indeed, I will send to them a gift and see with what [reply] the messengers will return

English Translation:

So when they came to Solomon, he said, "Do you provide me with wealth? But what Allah has given me is better than what He has given you. Rather, it is you who rejoice in your gift

English Translation:

Return to them, for we will surely come to them with soldiers that they will be powerless to encounter, and we will surely expel them therefrom in humiliation, and they will be debased

English Translation:

[Solomon] said, "O assembly [of jinn], which of you will bring me her throne before they come to me in submission

English Translation:

A powerful one from among the jinn said, "I will bring it to you before you rise from your place, and indeed, I am for this [task] strong and trustworthy

English Translation:
