ASH SHAAFFAAT (YANG BER SHAF-SHAF)

إِنَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.

ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا الْآخَرِينَ

Then We drowned the disbelievers.

وَإِنَّ مِن شِيعَتِهِ لَإِبْرَاهِيمَ

And indeed, among his kind was Abraham,

إِذْ جَاء رَبَّهُ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ

When he came to his Lord with a sound heart

إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُونَ

[And] when he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?

أَئِفْكًا آلِهَةً دُونَ اللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ

Is it falsehood [as] gods other than Allah you desire?

فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ

Then what is your thought about the Lord of the worlds?"

فَنَظَرَ نَظْرَةً فِي النُّجُومِ

And he cast a look at the stars

فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ

And said, "Indeed, I am [about to be] ill."

فَتَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِينَ

So they turned away from him, departing.

فَرَاغَ إِلَى آلِهَتِهِمْ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ

Then he turned to their gods and said, "Do you not eat?

مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَنطِقُونَ

What is [wrong] with you that you do not speak?"

فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًا بِالْيَمِينِ

And he turned upon them a blow with [his] right hand.

فَأَقْبَلُوا إِلَيْهِ يَزِفُّونَ

Then the people came toward him, hastening.

قَالَ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَنْحِتُونَ

He said, "Do you worship that which you [yourselves] carve,

وَاللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُونَ

While Allah created you and that which you do?"

قَالُوا ابْنُوا لَهُ بُنْيَانًا فَأَلْقُوهُ فِي الْجَحِيمِ

They said, "Construct for him a furnace and throw him into the burning fire."

فَأَرَادُوا بِهِ كَيْدًا فَجَعَلْنَاهُمُ الْأَسْفَلِينَ

And they intended for him a plan, but We made them the most debased.

وَقَالَ إِنِّي ذَاهِبٌ إِلَى رَبِّي سَيَهْدِينِ

And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.

رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ

My Lord, grant me [a child] from among the righteous."
