37. Safat · verses 128–140

إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ

Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena

Except the sincere and devoted Servants of Allah (among them).

وَتَرَكۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ

Watarakna AAalayhi fee alakhireena

And We left (this blessing) for him among generations (to come) in later times:

سَلَٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلۡ يَاسِينَ

Salamun AAala il yaseena

"Peace and salutation to such as Elias!"

إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

Inna kathalika najzee almuhsineena

Thus indeed do We reward those who do right.

إِنَّهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

Innahu min AAibadina almumineena

For he was one of our believing Servants.

وَإِنَّ لُوطٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

Wainna lootan lamina almursaleena

So also was Lut among those sent (by Us).

Ith najjaynahu waahlahu ajmaAAeena

Illa AAajoozan fee alghabireena

Except an old woman who was among those who lagged behind:

ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ

Thumma dammarna alakhareena

Then We destroyed the rest.

وَإِنَّكُمۡ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيۡهِم مُّصۡبِحِينَ

Wainnakum latamurroona AAalayhim musbiheena

Verily, ye pass by their (sites), by day-

وَبِٱلَّيۡلِۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ

Wabiallayli afala taAAqiloona

And by night: will ye not understand?

وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

Wainna yoonusa lamina almursaleena

So also was Jonah among those sent (by Us).

إِذۡ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ

Ith abaqa ila alfulki almashhooni

When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden,
