ADVICE TO THE PROPHET
93Say, 'O Prophet,' 'My Lord!
If You are going to show me the punishment those idol-worshippers' are threatened with,'
94then, my Lord, do not count me among those doing wrong.
'
95We really have the power to show you what We warned them of.
96Respond to evil with what is best.
We know very well what they claim.
97And say, 'My Lord!
I seek pro-I tection in You : against the whispers of the devils.
98And I seek protection in You, my Lord, that they even Come near me'
قُل رَّبِّ إِمَّا تُرِيَنِّي مَا يُوعَدُونَ93
رَبِّ فَلَا تَجۡعَلۡنِي فِي ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ94
وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّرِيَكَ مَا نَعِدُهُمۡ لَقَٰدِرُونَ95
ٱدۡفَعۡ بِٱلَّتِي هِيَ أَحۡسَنُ ٱلسَّيِّئَةَۚ نَحۡنُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يَصِفُونَ96
وَقُل رَّبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنۡ هَمَزَٰتِ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِ97
وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَن يَحۡضُرُونِ98
TOO LATE FOR THE WICKED
99When death comes to any of them, they cry, 'My Lord!
Let me go back,'
100SO I can make up for what I missed!
' Never!
It is just a useless request they make.
But they will be sealed off 'from this world' until the Day they are raised back to life.
11
101Then, when the Horn will be blown,12 there will be no family ties between them on that Day, and they will not even care to ask about each
other13
102As for those whose scales are heavy 'with good deeds', they will really be suc-cessful.
103But as for those whose scales are light, such people have doomed themselves, staying in Hell forever.
104The Fire will burn their faces, leaving them deformed.
105'They will be told,' 'Were My revelations not recited to you, but you used to reject them?
'
106They will cry, 'Our Lord!
Our bad luck took hold of us, so we lost the way.
107Our Lord!
Take us out of here.
Then if we ever do that again, we will definitely be so wrong.
108Allah will respond, 'Be dis-graced in there, and do not ever talk to Me again!
'
109There was once a group of My servants who used to pray, 'Our Lord!
We have believed, so forgive us and have mercy on us; You are the best of those who show mercy.
110But you were so busy making fun of them that you forgot all about Me.
And you kept on laughing at them.
111Today I have rewarded them for their patience: they are truly the win-ners
112He will ask them, 'How many years did you stay on earth?
'
113They will reply, 'We stayed 'only' a day or part of a day.
14 But ask those who kept count:.
'
114He will say, 'You just stayed for a little while, if you had only known.
115Did you really think that We had created you just for fun, and that you would never be re-turned to Us?
'
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَ أَحَدَهُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ قَالَ رَبِّ ٱرۡجِعُونِ99
لَعَلِّيٓ أَعۡمَلُ صَٰلِحٗا فِيمَا تَرَكۡتُۚ كَلَّآۚ إِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَآئِلُهَاۖ وَمِن وَرَآئِهِم بَرۡزَخٌ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ100
فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَلَآ أَنسَابَ بَيۡنَهُمۡ يَوۡمَئِذٖ وَلَا يَتَسَآءَلُونَ101
فَمَن ثَقُلَتۡ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُفۡلِحُونَ102
وَمَنۡ خَفَّتۡ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓاْ أَنفُسَهُمۡ فِي جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدُونَ103
تَلۡفَحُ وُجُوهَهُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَهُمۡ فِيهَا كَٰلِحُونَ104
أَلَمۡ تَكُنۡ ءَايَٰتِي تُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡكُمۡ فَكُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ105
قَالُواْ رَبَّنَا غَلَبَتۡ عَلَيۡنَا شِقۡوَتُنَا وَكُنَّا قَوۡمٗا ضَآلِّينَ106
رَبَّنَآ أَخۡرِجۡنَا مِنۡهَا فَإِنۡ عُدۡنَا فَإِنَّا ظَٰلِمُونَ107
قَالَ ٱخۡسَُٔواْ فِيهَا وَلَا تُكَلِّمُونِ108
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فَرِيقٞ مِّنۡ عِبَادِي يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَآ ءَامَنَّا فَٱغۡفِرۡ لَنَا وَٱرۡحَمۡنَا وَأَنتَ خَيۡرُ ٱلرَّٰحِمِينَ109
فَٱتَّخَذۡتُمُوهُمۡ سِخۡرِيًّا حَتَّىٰٓ أَنسَوۡكُمۡ ذِكۡرِي وَكُنتُم مِّنۡهُمۡ تَضۡحَكُونَ110
إِنِّي جَزَيۡتُهُمُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ بِمَا صَبَرُوٓاْ أَنَّهُمۡ هُمُ ٱلۡفَآئِزُونَ111
قَٰلَ كَمۡ لَبِثۡتُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ عَدَدَ سِنِينَ112
قَالُواْ لَبِثۡنَا يَوۡمًا أَوۡ بَعۡضَ يَوۡمٖ فَسَۡٔلِ ٱلۡعَآدِّينَ113
قَٰلَ إِن لَّبِثۡتُمۡ إِلَّا قَلِيلٗاۖ لَّوۡ أَنَّكُمۡ كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ114
أَفَحَسِبۡتُمۡ أَنَّمَا خَلَقۡنَٰكُمۡ عَبَثٗا وَأَنَّكُمۡ إِلَيۡنَا لَا تُرۡجَعُونَ115
ONE GOD ONLY
116Allah, the True King, is highly honoured!
There is no god that deserves worship" except Him, the Lord of the Honourable Throne.
117Whoever calls any other god besides Allah-a practice for which they have no proof--then they will find their penalty with their Lord.
Indeed, the disbelievers will never suc-ceed.
118Say, "O Prophet, 'My Lord!
For-give and have mercy.
You are the best of those who show mercy.
فَتَعَٰلَى ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمَلِكُ ٱلۡحَقُّۖ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ ٱلۡعَرۡشِ ٱلۡكَرِيمِ116
وَمَن يَدۡعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ لَا بُرۡهَٰنَ لَهُۥ بِهِۦ فَإِنَّمَا حِسَابُهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّهِۦٓۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُفۡلِحُ ٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ117
وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱغۡفِرۡ وَٱرۡحَمۡ وَأَنتَ خَيۡرُ ٱلرَّٰحِمِينَ118
How to study Surah Al-Mu'minûn with children
Use this children's lesson as a guided path: read the short explanation, look at the Arabic verse, listen to related recitation, and return to the full surah when your child is ready for more detail.
Parents can review one section at a time, ask the child to repeat the main idea, and then continue with the next part or a nearby surah. This keeps the lesson connected with Quran reading, audio, and daily practice.
