ভূমিকা
68:1 نٓ ۚ وَٱلْقَلَمِ وَمَا يَسْطُرُونَ
●Nūn. 1 By the pen and what they inscribe,
68:2 مَآ أَنتَ بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجْنُونٍ
●You are not, [O Muḥammad], by the favor of your Lord, a madman. 68:3 وَإِنَّ لَكَ لَأَجْرًا غَيْرَ مَمْنُونٍ
●And indeed, for you is a reward uninterrupted. 68:4 وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلَىٰ خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٍ
— And indeed, you are of a great moral character. 68:5 فَسَتُبْصِرُ وَيُبْصِرُونَ
— So you will see and they will see. — Which of you is the afflicted [by a devil]. 68:7 إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِٱلْمُهْتَدِينَ
— Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has gone astray from His way, and He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided. 68:8 فَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
— Then do not obey the deniers. 68:9 وَدُّوا۟ لَوْ تُدْهِنُ فَيُدْهِنُونَ
●They wish that you would soften [in your position], so they would soften [toward you]. 68:10 وَلَا تُطِعْ كُلَّ حَلَّافٍ مَّهِينٍ
●And do not obey every worthless habitual swearer
68:11 هَمَّازٍ مَّشَّآءٍۭ بِنَمِيمٍ
●[And] scorner, going about with malicious gossip -
68:12 مَّنَّاعٍ لِّلْخَيْرِ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
●A preventer of good, transgressing and sinful,
68:13 عُتُلٍّۭ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ زَنِيمٍ
●Cruel, moreover, and an illegitimate pretender. 1
68:14 أَن كَانَ ذَا مَالٍ وَبَنِينَ
●Because he is a possessor of wealth and children,
68:15 إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ءَايَـٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَـٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
●When Our verses are recited to him, he says, "Legends of the former peoples."
68:16 سَنَسِمُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلْخُرْطُومِ
●We will brand him upon the snout. 1
68:17 إِنَّا بَلَوْنَـٰهُمْ كَمَا بَلَوْنَآ أَصْحَـٰبَ ٱلْجَنَّةِ إِذْ أَقْسَمُوا۟ لَيَصْرِمُنَّهَا مُصْبِحِينَ
●Indeed, We have tried them as We tried the companions of the garden, when they swore to cut its fruit in the [early] morning
68:19 فَطَافَ عَلَيْهَا طَآئِفٌ مِّن رَّبِّكَ وَهُمْ نَآئِمُونَ
— So there came upon it [i.e., the garden] an affliction from your Lord while they were asleep. 68:20 فَأَصْبَحَتْ كَٱلصَّرِيمِ
●And it became as though reaped.
