51. Dharijat · verses 35–48

فَأَخۡرَجۡنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

Faakhrajna man kana feeha mina almumineena

Then We evacuated those of the Believers who were there,

فَمَا وَجَدۡنَا فِيهَا غَيۡرَ بَيۡتٖ مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡلِمِينَ

Fama wajadna feeha ghayra baytin mina almuslimeena

But We found not there any just (Muslim) persons except in one house:

وَتَرَكۡنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةٗ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَلِيمَ

Watarakna feeha ayatan lillatheena yakhafoona alAAathaba alaleema

And We left there a Sign for such as fear the Grievous Penalty.

وَفِي مُوسَىٰٓ إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنَ بِسُلۡطَٰنٖ مُّبِينٖ

Wafee moosa ith arsalnahu ila firAAawna bisultanin mubeenin

And in Moses (was another Sign): Behold, We sent him to Pharaoh, with authority manifest.

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكۡنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوۡ مَجۡنُونٞ

Fatawalla biruknihi waqala sahirun aw majnoonun

But (Pharaoh) turned back with his Chiefs, and said, "A sorcerer, or one possessed!"

فَأَخَذۡنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٞ

Faakhathnahu wajunoodahu fanabathnahum fee alyammi wahuwa muleemun

So We took him and his forces, and threw them into the sea; and his was the blame.

وَفِي عَادٍ إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلۡعَقِيمَ

Wafee AAadin ith arsalna AAalayhimu alrreeha alAAaqeema

And in the ´Ad (people) (was another Sign): Behold, We sent against them the devastating Wind:

مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَيۡءٍ أَتَتۡ عَلَيۡهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتۡهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ

Ma tatharu min shayin atat AAalayhi illa jaAAalathu kaalrrameemi

It left nothing whatever that it came up against, but reduced it to ruin and rottenness.

وَفِي ثَمُودَ إِذۡ قِيلَ لَهُمۡ تَمَتَّعُواْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ

Wafee thamooda ith qeela lahum tamattaAAoo hatta heenin

And in the Thamud (was another Sign): Behold, they were told, "Enjoy (your brief day) for a little while!"

فَعَتَوۡاْ عَنۡ أَمۡرِ رَبِّهِمۡ فَأَخَذَتۡهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمۡ يَنظُرُونَ

FaAAataw AAan amri rabbihim faakhathathumu alssaAAiqatu wahum yanthuroona

But they insolently defied the Command of their Lord: So the stunning noise (of an earthquake) seized them, even while they were looking on.

فَمَا ٱسۡتَطَٰعُواْ مِن قِيَامٖ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُنتَصِرِينَ

Fama istataAAoo min qiyamin wama kanoo muntasireena

Then they could not even stand (on their feet), nor could they help themselves.

وَقَوۡمَ نُوحٖ مِّن قَبۡلُۖ إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ قَوۡمٗا فَٰسِقِينَ

Waqawma noohin min qablu innahum kanoo qawman fasiqeena

So were the People of Noah before them for they wickedly transgressed.

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيۡنَٰهَا بِأَيۡيْدٖ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ

Waalssamaa banaynaha biaydin wainna lamoosiAAoona

With power and skill did We construct the Firmament: for it is We Who create the vastness of pace.

وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ فَرَشۡنَٰهَا فَنِعۡمَ ٱلۡمَٰهِدُونَ

Waalarda farashnaha faniAAma almahidoona

And We have spread out the (spacious) earth: How excellently We do spread out!
