Ṭâ-Hâ (Surah 20)

Ṭâ-Hâ (Ṭâ-Hâ)

Makki Surah

Introduction

Since Moses (ﷺ) and Adam (ﷺ) are mentioned passingly in the previous sûrah, their stories are recounted here in great detail. This Meccan sûrah reassures the Prophet (ﷺ) that the truth always prevails even against the most tyrannical opposition (in the form of Pharaoh) and that Allah is able to open even the hardest of hearts (in the form of Pharaoh’s magicians). Both the beginning and the end of the sûrah emphasize the divine nature of the Quran as a source of guidance and eternal bliss. Those who turn away from the Quranic reminder are warned of misery in this world and horrifying punishment on the Day of Judgment. The Prophet (ﷺ) is advised to seek comfort in patience and prayer against pagan denial, which is detailed at the beginning of the next sûrah. In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.

The Message of the Quran

1. Ṭâ-Hâ.

2. We have not revealed the Quran to you (O Prophet) to cause you distress,

3. but as a reminder to those in awe (of Allah).

4. (It is) a revelation from the One Who created the earth and the high heavens—

5. the Most Compassionate, (Who is) established on the Throne.

6. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth and whatever is in between and whatever is underground.

7. Whether you speak openly (or not), He certainly knows what is secret and what is even more hidden.

8. Allah—there is no god (worthy of worship) except Him.

He has the Most Beautiful Names.

طه١

مَآ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْكَ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِتَشْقَىٰٓ٢

إِلَّا تَذْكِرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰ٣

تَنزِيلًا مِّمَّنْ خَلَقَ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ ٱلْعُلَى٤

ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱسْتَوَىٰ٥

لَهُۥ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمَا تَحْتَ ٱلثَّرَىٰ٦

وَإِن تَجْهَرْ بِٱلْقَوْلِ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلسِّرَّ وَأَخْفَى٧

ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ لَهُ ٱلْأَسْمَآءُ ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ٨
