Surah The Clot [Al-Alaq] in English
ٱقْرَأْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ﴿١﴾
Read in the Name of your Lord who created;
خَلَقَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ ﴿٢﴾
created man from a clinging mass.
ٱقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ ٱلْأَكْرَمُ ﴿٣﴾
Read, and your Lord is the most generous,
ٱلَّذِى عَلَّمَ بِٱلْقَلَمِ ﴿٤﴾
who taught by the pen,
عَلَّمَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ ﴿٥﴾
taught man what he did not know.
كَلَّآ إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لَيَطْغَىٰٓ ﴿٦﴾
Indeed man becomes rebellious
أَن رَّءَاهُ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰٓ ﴿٧﴾
when he considers himself without need.
إِنَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ ٱلرُّجْعَىٰٓ ﴿٨﴾
Indeed to your Lord is the return.
أَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى يَنْهَىٰ ﴿٩﴾
Tell me, he who forbids
عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّىٰٓ ﴿١٠﴾
a servant when he prays,
أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى ٱلْهُدَىٰٓ ﴿١١﴾
tell me, should he be on [true] guidance,
أَوْ أَمَرَ بِٱلتَّقْوَىٰٓ ﴿١٢﴾
or bid [others] to Godwariness,
أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ ﴿١٣﴾
tell me, should he call him a liar and turn away
أَلَمْ يَعْلَم بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَرَىٰ ﴿١٤﴾
—does he not know that Allah sees [him]?
كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًۢا بِٱلنَّاصِيَةِ ﴿١٥﴾
No indeed! If he does not cease, We shall seize him by the forelock,
نَاصِيَةٍۢ كَٰذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍۢ ﴿١٦﴾
a lying, sinful forelock!
فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُۥ ﴿١٧﴾
Then let him call out his gang!
سَنَدْعُ ٱلزَّبَانِيَةَ ﴿١٨﴾
We [too] shall call the keepers of hell.
كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَٱسْجُدْ وَٱقْتَرِب ۩ ﴿١٩﴾
No indeed! Do not obey him, but prostrate and draw near [to Allah]!
