44. Duhan · verses 13–19

أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَآءَهُمۡ رَسُولٞ مُّبِينٞ

Anna lahumu alththikra waqad jaahum rasoolun mubeenun

How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them,-

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُواْ مُعَلَّمٞ مَّجۡنُونٌ

Thumma tawallaw AAanhu waqaloo muAAallamun majnoonun

Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"

إِنَّا كَاشِفُواْ ٱلۡعَذَابِ قَلِيلًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ عَآئِدُونَ

Inna kashifoo alAAathabi qaleelan innakum AAaidoona

We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).

يَوۡمَ نَبۡطِشُ ٱلۡبَطۡشَةَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰٓ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ

Yawma nabtishu albatshata alkubra inna muntaqimoona

One day We shall seize you with a mighty onslaught: We will indeed (then) exact Retribution!

۞ وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَجَآءَهُمۡ رَسُولٞ كَرِيمٌ

Walaqad fatanna qablahum qawma firAAawna wajaahum rasoolun kareemun

We did, before them, try the people of Pharaoh: there came to them a messenger most honourable,

أَنۡ أَدُّوٓاْ إِلَيَّ عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ

An addoo ilayya AAibada Allahi innee lakum rasoolun ameenun

Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;

وَأَن لَّا تَعۡلُواْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّيٓ ءَاتِيكُم بِسُلۡطَٰنٖ مُّبِينٖ

Waan la taAAloo AAala Allahi innee ateekum bisultanin mubeenin

"And be not arrogant as against Allah: for I come to you with authority manifest.
