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 clot [of blood].
ٱقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ ٱلْأَكْرَمُ ﴿٣﴾
Read! Your Lord is the Most Bountiful One
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﴾
Yet man behaves arrogantly,
أَن رَّءَاهُ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰٓ ﴿٧﴾
because he thinks himself self-sufficient:
إِنَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ ٱلرُّجْعَىٰٓ ﴿٨﴾
truly, all will return to your Lord.
أَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى يَنْهَىٰ ﴿٩﴾
Have you seen one who prevents
عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّىٰٓ ﴿١٠﴾
a worshipper from praying?
أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى ٱلْهُدَىٰٓ ﴿١١﴾
Do you think he is rightly guided,
أَوْ أَمَرَ بِٱلتَّقْوَىٰٓ ﴿١٢﴾
or enjoins true piety?
أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ ﴿١٣﴾
Do you see how he has denied the truth and turned away from it?
أَلَمْ يَعْلَم بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَرَىٰ ﴿١٤﴾
Does he not know that God observes all things?
كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًۢا بِٱلنَّاصِيَةِ ﴿١٥﴾
Let him beware! If he does not desist, We will drag him by the forelock --
نَاصِيَةٍۢ كَٰذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍۢ ﴿١٦﴾
his lying, sinful forelock.
فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُۥ ﴿١٧﴾
Then let him call his associates;
سَنَدْعُ ٱلزَّبَانِيَةَ ﴿١٨﴾
We shall summon the guards of Hell.
كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَٱسْجُدْ وَٱقْتَرِب ۩ ﴿١٩﴾
No indeed! Do not obey him, but prostrate yourself and come closer to God.
