Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth ˹constantly˺ glorifies Allah—the King, the Most Holy, the Almighty, the All-Wise.

62:2

ﱎHeﱏ(is) the One Whoﱐsentﱑamongﱒthe unletteredﱓa Messengerﱔfrom themselvesﱕrecitingﱖto themﱗHis Versesﱘand purifying themﱙand teaching themﱚthe Bookﱛand the wisdomﱜalthoughﱝthey wereﱞfromﱟbeforeﱠsurely inﱡan errorﱢclearﱣ(2)

He is the One Who raised for the illiterate ˹people˺ a messenger from among themselves—reciting to them His revelations, purifying them, and teaching them the Book and wisdom, for indeed they had previously been clearly astray—

62:3

ﱤAnd othersﱥamong themﱦwho have not yetﱧjoinedﱨﱩthemﱪand Heﱫ(is) the All-Mightyﱬthe All-Wiseﱭ(3)

along with others of them who have not yet joined them ˹in faith˺. For He is the Almighty, All-Wise.

62:4

ﱮThatﱯ(is the) Bountyﱰ(of) AllahﱱHe gives itﱲ(to) whomﱳﱴHe willsﱵAnd Allahﱶ(is the) Possessorﱷ(of) Bountyﱸthe Greatﱹ(4)

This is the favour of Allah. He grants it to whoever He wills. And Allah is the Lord of infinite bounty.

62:5

ﱺ(The) likenessﱻ(of) those whoﱼwere entrustedﱽ(with) the Tauratﱾthenﱿnotﲀthey bore itﲁ(is) likeﲂthe donkeyﲃwho carriesﲄﲅbooksﲆWretched isﲇ(the) exampleﲈ(of) the peopleﲉwhoﲊdenyﲋ(the) Signsﲌﲍ(of) AllahﲎAnd Allahﲏ(does) notﲐguideﲑthe peopleﲒthe wrongdoersﲓ(5)

The example of those who were entrusted with ˹observing˺ the Torah but failed to do so, is that of a donkey carrying books.1 How evil is the example of those who reject Allah’s signs! For Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.

62:6

ﲔSayﲕOﲖyou (who)ﲗ(are) JewsﲘIfﲙyou claimﲚthat youﲛ(are) alliesﲜof Allahﲝfromﲞexcludingﲟthe peopleﲠthen wishﲡ(for) the deathﲢifﲣyou areﲤtruthfulﲥ(6)

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “O Jews! If you claim to be Allah’s chosen ˹people˺ out of all humanity, then wish for death, if what you say is true.”

62:7

ﲦBut notﲧthey will wish for itﲨeverﲩfor whatﲪ(have) sent forthﲫﲬtheir handsﲭAnd Allahﲮ(is) All-Knowingﲯof the wrongdoersﲰ(7)

But they will never wish for that because of what their hands have done.1 And Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of the wrongdoers.

62:8

ﲱSayﲲIndeedﲳthe deathﲴwhichﲵyou fleeﲶfrom itﲷthen surely itﲸﲹ(will) meet youﲺThenﲻyou will be sent backﲼtoﲽ(the) All-Knowerﲾ(of) the unseenﲿand the witnessedﳀand He will inform youﳁ[of] whatﳂyou used toﳃdoﳄ(8)

Say, “The death you are running away from will inevitably come to you. Then you will be returned to the Knower of the seen and unseen, and He will inform you of what you used to do.”
