36. Ja Sin · verses 5–9

تَنزِيلَ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Tanzeela alAAazeezi alrraheemi

It is a Revelation sent down by (Him), the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

لِتُنذِرَ قَوۡمٗا مَّآ أُنذِرَ ءَابَآؤُهُمۡ فَهُمۡ غَٰفِلُونَ

Litunthira qawman ma onthira abaohum fahum ghafiloona

In order that thou mayest admonish a people, whose fathers had received no admonition, and who therefore remain heedless (of the Signs of Allah).

لَقَدۡ حَقَّ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَىٰٓ أَكۡثَرِهِمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ

Laqad haqqa alqawlu AAala aktharihim fahum la yuminoona

The Word is proved true against the greater part of them: for they do not believe.

إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَا فِيٓ أَعۡنَٰقِهِمۡ أَغۡلَٰلٗا فَهِيَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَذۡقَانِ فَهُم مُّقۡمَحُونَ

Inna jaAAalna fee aAAnaqihim aghlalan fahiya ila alathqani fahum muqmahoona

We have put yokes round their necks right up to their chins, so that their heads are forced up (and they cannot see).

وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ سَدّٗا وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ سَدّٗا فَأَغۡشَيۡنَٰهُمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُبۡصِرُونَ

WajaAAalna min bayni aydeehim saddan wamin khalfihim saddan faaghshaynahum fahum la yubsiroona

And We have put a bar in front of them and a bar behind them, and further, We have covered them up; so that they cannot see.
