41. Fussilat

Explained in Detail

حمٓ١

Ḥā, Meem.

تَنزِيلٞمِّنَٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِٱلرَّحِيمِ٢

[This is] a revelation from the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful -

كِتَٰبٞفُصِّلَتۡءَايَٰتُهُۥقُرۡءَانًاعَرَبِيّٗالِّقَوۡمٖيَعۡلَمُونَ٣

A Book whose verses have been detailed, an Arabic Qur’ān for a people who know,

بَشِيرٗاوَنَذِيرٗافَأَعۡرَضَأَكۡثَرُهُمۡفَهُمۡلَايَسۡمَعُونَ٤

As a giver of good tidings and a warner; but most of them turn away, so they do not hear.

وَقَالُواْقُلُوبُنَافِيٓأَكِنَّةٖمِّمَّاتَدۡعُونَآإِلَيۡهِوَفِيٓءَاذَانِنَاوَقۡرٞوَمِنۢبَيۡنِنَاوَبَيۡنِكَحِجَابٞفَٱعۡمَلۡإِنَّنَاعَٰمِلُونَ٥

And they say, "Our hearts are within coverings [i.e., screened] from that to which you invite us, and in our ears is deafness, and between us and you is a partition, so work; indeed, we are working."

قُلۡإِنَّمَآأَنَا۠بَشَرٞمِّثۡلُكُمۡيُوحَىٰٓإِلَيَّأَنَّمَآإِلَٰهُكُمۡإِلَٰهٞوَٰحِدٞفَٱسۡتَقِيمُوٓاْإِلَيۡهِوَٱسۡتَغۡفِرُوهُۗوَوَيۡلٞلِّلۡمُشۡرِكِينَ٦

Say, [O Muḥammad], "I am only a man like you to whom it has been revealed that your god is but one God; so take a straight course to Him and seek His forgiveness." And woe to those who associate others with Allāh –

ٱلَّذِينَلَايُؤۡتُونَٱلزَّكَوٰةَوَهُمبِٱلۡأٓخِرَةِهُمۡكَٰفِرُونَ٧

Those who do not give zakāh, and in the Hereafter they are disbelievers.

إِنَّٱلَّذِينَءَامَنُواْوَعَمِلُواْٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِلَهُمۡأَجۡرٌغَيۡرُمَمۡنُونٖ٨

Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds - for them is a reward uninterrupted.

۞ قُلۡأَئِنَّكُمۡلَتَكۡفُرُونَبِٱلَّذِيخَلَقَٱلۡأَرۡضَفِييَوۡمَيۡنِوَتَجۡعَلُونَلَهُۥٓأَندَادٗاۚذَٰلِكَرَبُّٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ٩

Say, "Do you indeed disbelieve in He who created the earth in two days and attribute to Him equals? That is the Lord of the worlds."

وَجَعَلَفِيهَارَوَٰسِيَمِنفَوۡقِهَاوَبَٰرَكَفِيهَاوَقَدَّرَفِيهَآأَقۡوَٰتَهَافِيٓأَرۡبَعَةِأَيَّامٖسَوَآءٗلِّلسَّآئِلِينَ١٠

And He placed on it [i.e., the earth] firmly set mountains over its surface, and He blessed it and determined therein its [creatures'] sustenance in four days without distinction - for [the information of] those who ask.
