سُورَةُ مَرۡيَمَ

English — Saheeh International

Kaf, Ha, Ya, 'Ayn, Sad.

English — Saheeh International

[This is] a mention of the mercy of your Lord to His servant Zechariah

English — Saheeh International

When he called to his Lord a private supplication.

English — Saheeh International

He said, "My Lord, indeed my bones have weakened, and my head has filled with white, and never have I been in my supplication to You, my Lord, unhappy.

English — Saheeh International

And indeed, I fear the successors after me, and my wife has been barren, so give me from Yourself an heir

English — Saheeh International

Who will inherit me and inherit from the family of Jacob. And make him, my Lord, pleasing [to You]."

English — Saheeh International

[He was told], "O Zechariah, indeed We give you good tidings of a boy whose name will be John. We have not assigned to any before [this] name."

English — Saheeh International

He said, "My Lord, how will I have a boy when my wife has been barren and I have reached extreme old age?"

English — Saheeh International

[An angel] said, "Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, 'It is easy for Me, for I created you before, while you were nothing.' "

English — Saheeh International

[Zechariah] said, "My Lord, make for me a sign." He said, "Your sign is that you will not speak to the people for three nights, [being] sound."

English — Saheeh International

So he came out to his people from the prayer chamber and signaled to them to exalt [Allah] in the morning and afternoon.

English — Saheeh International

[Allah] said, "O John, take the Scripture with determination." And We gave him judgement [while yet] a boy

English — Saheeh International

And affection from Us and purity, and he was fearing of Allah

English — Saheeh International

And dutiful to his parents, and he was not a disobedient tyrant.

English — Saheeh International

And peace be upon him the day he was born and the day he dies and the day he is raised alive.

English — Saheeh International

And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.

English — Saheeh International

And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen. Then We sent to her Our Angel, and he represented himself to her as a well-proportioned man.

English — Saheeh International

She said, "Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah."

English — Saheeh International

He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy."

English — Saheeh International

She said, "How can I have a boy while no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste?"

English — Saheeh International

He said, "Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, 'It is easy for Me, and We will make him a sign to the people and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter [already] decreed.' "

English — Saheeh International

So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a remote place.

English — Saheeh International

And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She said, "Oh, I wish I had died before this and was in oblivion, forgotten."

English — Saheeh International

But he called her from below her, "Do not grieve; your Lord has provided beneath you a stream.

English — Saheeh International

And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree; it will drop upon you ripe, fresh dates.

English — Saheeh International

So eat and drink and be contented. And if you see from among humanity anyone, say, 'Indeed, I have vowed to the Most Merciful abstention, so I will not speak today to [any] man.' "

English — Saheeh International

Then she brought him to her people, carrying him. They said, "O Mary, you have certainly done a thing unprecedented.

English — Saheeh International

O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste."

English — Saheeh International

So she pointed to him. They said, "How can we speak to one who is in the cradle a child?"

English — Saheeh International

[Jesus] said, "Indeed, I am the servant of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet.

English — Saheeh International

And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakah as long as I remain alive

English — Saheeh International

And [made me] dutiful to my mother, and He has not made me a wretched tyrant.

English — Saheeh International

And peace is on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I am raised alive."

English — Saheeh International

That is Jesus, the son of Mary - the word of truth about which they are in dispute.

English — Saheeh International

It is not [befitting] for Allah to take a son; exalted is He! When He decrees an affair, He only says to it, "Be," and it is.

English — Saheeh International

[Jesus said], "And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path."

English — Saheeh International

Then the factions differed [concerning Jesus] from among them, so woe to those who disbelieved - from the scene of a tremendous Day.

English — Saheeh International

How [clearly] they will hear and see the Day they come to Us, but the wrongdoers today are in clear error.

English — Saheeh International

And warn them, [O Muhammad], of the Day of Regret, when the matter will be concluded; and [yet], they are in [a state of] heedlessness, and they do not believe.

English — Saheeh International

Indeed, it is We who will inherit the earth and whoever is on it, and to Us they will be returned.

English — Saheeh International

And mention in the Book [the story of] Abraham. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet.

English — Saheeh International

[Mention] when he said to his father, "O my father, why do you worship that which does not hear and does not see and will not benefit you at all?

English — Saheeh International

O my father, indeed there has come to me of knowledge that which has not come to you, so follow me; I will guide you to an even path.

English — Saheeh International

O my father, do not worship Satan. Indeed Satan has ever been, to the Most Merciful, disobedient.

English — Saheeh International

O my father, indeed I fear that there will touch you a punishment from the Most Merciful so you would be to Satan a companion [in Hellfire]."

English — Saheeh International

[His father] said, "Have you no desire for my gods, O Abraham? If you do not desist, I will surely stone you, so avoid me a prolonged time."

English — Saheeh International

[Abraham] said, "Peace will be upon you. I will ask forgiveness for you of my Lord. Indeed, He is ever gracious to me.

English — Saheeh International

And I will leave you and those you invoke other than Allah and will invoke my Lord. I expect that I will not be in invocation to my Lord unhappy."

English — Saheeh International

So when he had left them and those they worshipped other than Allah, We gave him Isaac and Jacob, and each [of them] We made a prophet.

English — Saheeh International

And We gave them of Our mercy, and we made for them a reputation of high honor.

English — Saheeh International

And mention in the Book, Moses. Indeed, he was chosen, and he was a messenger and a prophet.

English — Saheeh International

And We called him from the side of the mount at [his] right and brought him near, confiding [to him].

English — Saheeh International

And We gave him out of Our mercy his brother Aaron as a prophet.

English — Saheeh International

And mention in the Book, Ishmael. Indeed, he was true to his promise, and he was a messenger and a prophet.

English — Saheeh International

And he used to enjoin on his people prayer and zakah and was to his Lord pleasing.

English — Saheeh International

And mention in the Book, Idrees. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet.

English — Saheeh International

And We raised him to a high station.

English — Saheeh International

Those were the ones upon whom Allah bestowed favor from among the prophets of the descendants of Adam and of those We carried [in the ship] with Noah, and of the descendants of Abraham and Israel, and of those whom We guided and chose. When the verses of the Most Merciful were recited to them, they fell in prostration and weeping.

English — Saheeh International

But there came after them successors who neglected prayer and pursued desires; so they are going to meet evil -

English — Saheeh International

Except those who repent, believe and do righteousness; for those will enter Paradise and will not be wronged at all.

English — Saheeh International

[Therein are] gardens of perpetual residence which the Most Merciful has promised His servants in the unseen. Indeed, His promise has ever been coming.

English — Saheeh International

They will not hear therein any ill speech - only [greetings of] peace - and they will have their provision therein, morning and afternoon.

English — Saheeh International

That is Paradise, which We give as inheritance to those of Our servants who were fearing of Allah.

English — Saheeh International

[Gabriel said], "And we [angels] descend not except by the order of your Lord. To Him belongs that before us and that behind us and what is in between. And never is your Lord forgetful -

English — Saheeh International

Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them - so worship Him and have patience for His worship. Do you know of any similarity to Him?"

English — Saheeh International

And the disbeliever says, "When I have died, am I going to be brought forth alive?"

English — Saheeh International

Does man not remember that We created him before, while he was nothing?

English — Saheeh International

So by your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils; then We will bring them to be present around Hell upon their knees.

English — Saheeh International

Then We will surely extract from every sect those of them who were worst against the Most Merciful in insolence.

English — Saheeh International

Then, surely it is We who are most knowing of those most worthy of burning therein.

English — Saheeh International

And there is none of you except he will come to it. This is upon your Lord an inevitability decreed.

English — Saheeh International

Then We will save those who feared Allah and leave the wrongdoers within it, on their knees.

English — Saheeh International

And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Which of [our] two parties is best in position and best in association?"

English — Saheeh International

And how many a generation have We destroyed before them who were better in possessions and [outward] appearance?

English — Saheeh International

Say, "Whoever is in error - let the Most Merciful extend for him an extension [in wealth and time] until, when they see that which they were promised - either punishment [in this world] or the Hour [of resurrection] - they will come to know who is worst in position and weaker in soldiers."

English — Saheeh International

And Allah increases those who were guided, in guidance, and the enduring good deeds are better to your Lord for reward and better for recourse.

English — Saheeh International

Then, have you seen he who disbelieved in Our verses and said, "I will surely be given wealth and children [in the next life]?"

English — Saheeh International

Has he looked into the unseen, or has he taken from the Most Merciful a promise?

English — Saheeh International

No! We will record what he says and extend for him from the punishment extensively.

English — Saheeh International

And We will inherit him [in] what he mentions, and he will come to Us alone.

English — Saheeh International

And they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that they would be for them [a source of] honor.

English — Saheeh International

No! Those "gods" will deny their worship of them and will be against them opponents [on the Day of Judgement].

English — Saheeh International

Do you not see that We have sent the devils upon the disbelievers, inciting them to [evil] with [constant] incitement?

English — Saheeh International

So be not impatient over them. We only count out to them a [limited] number.

English — Saheeh International

On the Day We will gather the righteous to the Most Merciful as a delegation

English — Saheeh International

And will drive the criminals to Hell in thirst

English — Saheeh International

None will have [power of] intercession except he who had taken from the Most Merciful a covenant.

English — Saheeh International

And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken [for Himself] a son."

English — Saheeh International

You have done an atrocious thing.

English — Saheeh International

The heavens almost rupture therefrom and the earth splits open and the mountains collapse in devastation

English — Saheeh International

That they attribute to the Most Merciful a son.

English — Saheeh International

And it is not appropriate for the Most Merciful that He should take a son.

English — Saheeh International

There is no one in the heavens and earth but that he comes to the Most Merciful as a servant.

English — Saheeh International

He has enumerated them and counted them a [full] counting.

English — Saheeh International

And all of them are coming to Him on the Day of Resurrection alone.

English — Saheeh International

Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds - the Most Merciful will appoint for them affection.

English — Saheeh International

So, [O Muhammad], We have only made Qur'an easy in the Arabic language that you may give good tidings thereby to the righteous and warn thereby a hostile people.

English — Saheeh International

And how many have We destroyed before them of generations? Do you perceive of them anyone or hear from them a sound?
