26:197 أَوَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُمْ ءَايَةً أَن يَعْلَمَهُۥ...
26:197 أَوَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُمْ ءَايَةً أَن يَعْلَمَهُۥ عُلَمَـٰٓؤُا۟ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ
— And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel? 26:198 وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَـٰهُ عَلَىٰ بَعْضِ ٱلْأَعْجَمِينَ
●And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners 1
26:199 فَقَرَأَهُۥ عَلَيْهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ مُؤْمِنِينَ
— And he had recited it to them [perfectly], 1 they would [still] not have been believers in it. 26:200 كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكْنَـٰهُ فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
— Thus have We inserted it [i.e., disbelief] into the hearts of the criminals. 26:201 لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِۦ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ
— They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment. 26:202 فَيَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ
— And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not. 26:203 فَيَقُولُوا۟ هَلْ نَحْنُ مُنظَرُونَ
●And they will say, "May we be reprieved?"
26:204 أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
— So for Our punishment are they impatient? 26:205 أَفَرَءَيْتَ إِن مَّتَّعْنَـٰهُمْ سِنِينَ
●Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years
26:206 ثُمَّ جَآءَهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يُوعَدُونَ
— And then there came to them that which they were promised? 26:207 مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يُمَتَّعُونَ
— They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided. 26:208 وَمَآ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا لَهَا مُنذِرُونَ
●And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners
26:209 ذِكْرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَـٰلِمِينَ
— As a reminder; and never have We been unjust. 26:210 وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتْ بِهِ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ
●And the devils have not brought it [i.e., the revelation] down. 1
26:211 وَمَا يَنۢبَغِى لَهُمْ وَمَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ
— It is not allowable for them, nor would they be able. 26:212 إِنَّهُمْ عَنِ ٱلسَّمْعِ لَمَعْزُولُونَ
●Indeed they, from [its] hearing, are removed. 1
26:213 فَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُعَذَّبِينَ
— So do not invoke 1 with Allāh another deity and [thus] be among the punished. 26:214 وَأَنذِرْ عَشِيرَتَكَ ٱلْأَقْرَبِينَ
— And warn, [O Muḥammad], your closest kindred. 26:215 وَٱخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
●And lower your wing [i.e., show kindness] to those who follow you of the believers.
