42:52

ﱁAnd thusﱂWe have revealedﱃto youﱄan inspirationﱅbyﱆﱇOur CommandﱈNotﱉ(did) youﱊknowﱋwhatﱌthe Book (is)ﱍand notﱎthe faithﱏButﱐWe have made itﱑa lightﱒWe guideﱓwith itﱔwhomﱕWe willﱖofﱗﱘOur slavesﱙAnd indeed, youﱚsurely guideﱛtoﱜ(the) PathﱝStraightﱞ(52)

And so We have sent to you ˹O Prophet˺ a revelation by Our command. You did not know of ˹this˺ Book and faith ˹before˺. But We have made it a light, by which We guide whoever We will of Our servants. And you are truly leading ˹all˺ to the Straight Path—

42:53

ﱟ(The) pathﱠ(of) Allahﱡthe Oneﱢto Whomﱣ(belongs) whateverﱤ(is) inﱥthe heavensﱦand whateverﱧ(is) inﱨﱩthe earthﱪUnquestionablyﱫToﱬAllahﱭreachﱮall affairsﱯ(53)

the Path of Allah, to Whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Surely to Allah all matters will return ˹for judgment˺.

43:1

ﱰHa Meemﱱ(1)

Ḥâ-Mĩm.

43:2

ﱲBy the Bookﱳthe clearﱴ(2)

By the clear Book!

43:3

ﱵIndeed, Weﱶ(have) made itﱷa Quranﱸ(in) Arabicﱹso that you mayﱺunderstandﱻ(3)

Certainly, We have made it a Quran in Arabic so perhaps you will understand.

43:4

ﱼAnd indeed, itﱽ(is) inﱾ(the) Motherﱿ(of) the Bookﲀwith Usﲁsurely exaltedﲂfull of wisdomﲃ(4)

And indeed, it is—in the Master Record1 with Us—highly esteemed, rich in wisdom.

43:5

ﲄThen should We take awayﲅfrom youﲆthe Reminderﲇdisregarding (you)ﲈbecauseﲉyou areﲊa peopleﲋtransgressingﲌ(5)

Should We then turn the ˹Quranic˺ Reminder away from you ˹simply˺ because you have been a transgressing people?

43:6

ﲍAnd how manyﲎWe sentﲏofﲐa Prophetﲑamongﲒthe former (people)ﲓ(6)

˹Imagine˺ how many prophets We sent to those ˹destroyed˺ before!

43:7

ﲔAnd notﲕcame to themﲖany Prophetﲗany Prophetﲘbutﲙthey used toﲚmock at himﲛmock at himﲜ(7)

But no prophet ever came to them without being mocked.

43:8

ﲝThen We destroyedﲞstrongerﲟthan themﲠ(in) powerﲡand has passedﲢ(the) exampleﲣ(of) the former (people)ﲤ(8)

So We destroyed those who were far mightier than these ˹Meccans˺. The examples of ˹their˺ predecessors have ˹already˺ been related.1

43:9

ﲥAnd ifﲦyou ask themﲧWhoﲨcreatedﲩthe heavensﲪand the earthﲫThey will surely sayﲬCreated themﲭthe All-Mightyﲮthe All-Knowerﲯ(9)

If you ask them ˹O Prophet˺ who created the heavens and the earth, they will certainly say, “The Almighty, All-Knowing did.”

43:10

ﲰThe One Whoﲱmadeﲲfor youﲳthe earthﲴa bedﲵand madeﲶfor youﲷthereinﲸroadsﲹso that you mayﲺ(be) guidedﲻ(10)

˹He is the One˺ Who has laid out the earth for you, and set in it pathways for you so that you may find your way.
