الصافات
Surah As-Saffat
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Indeed, this is how We reward the good-doers.
إِنَّهُمَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
They were truly ˹two˺ of Our faithful servants.
وَإِنَّ إِلْيَاسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
And Elias was indeed one of the messengers.
إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِۦٓ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
˹Remember˺ when he said to his people, “Will you not fear ˹Allah˺?
أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلًا وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ ٱلْخَـٰلِقِينَ
Do you call upon ˹the idol of˺ Ba’l and abandon the Best of Creators—
ٱللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers?”
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
But they rejected him, so they will certainly be brought ˹for punishment˺.
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُخْلَصِينَ
But not the chosen servants of Allah.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ
We blessed him ˹with honourable mention˺ among later generations:
سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَىٰٓ إِلْ يَاسِينَ
“Peace be upon Elias.”
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Indeed, this is how We reward the good-doers.
إِنَّهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
He was truly one of Our faithful servants.
وَإِنَّ لُوطًا لَّمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
And Lot was indeed one of the messengers.
إِذْ نَجَّيْنَـٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ
˹Remember˺ when We delivered him and all of his family,
إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِى ٱلْغَـٰبِرِينَ
except an old woman,1 who was one of the doomed.
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ
Then We ˹utterly˺ destroyed the rest.
وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ
You ˹Meccans˺ certainly pass by their ruins day
وَبِٱلَّيْلِ ۗ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
and night. Will you not then understand?
وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
And Jonah was indeed one of the messengers.
إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ ٱلْمَشْحُونِ
˹Remember˺ when he fled to the overloaded ship.
