مَا نُنَزِّلُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَمَا كَانُوٓاْ إِذٗا مُّنظَرِينَ

Ma nunazzilu almalaikata illa bialhaqqi wama kanoo ithan munthareena

We send not the angels down except for just cause: if they came (to the ungodly), behold! no respite would they have!

إِنَّا نَحۡنُ نَزَّلۡنَا ٱلذِّكۡرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُۥ لَحَٰفِظُونَ

Inna nahnu nazzalna alththikra wainna lahu lahafithoona

We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption).

وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مِن قَبۡلِكَ فِي شِيَعِ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

Walaqad arsalna min qablika fee shiyaAAi alawwaleena

We did send messengers before thee amongst the religious sects of old:

Wama yateehim min rasoolin illa kanoo bihi yastahzioona

But never came a messenger to them but they mocked him.

كَذَٰلِكَ نَسۡلُكُهُۥ فِي قُلُوبِ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ

Kathalika naslukuhu fee quloobi almujrimeena

Even so do we let it creep into the hearts of the sinners -
