مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ ١٥٤

What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?

أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ١٥٥

Then will you not be reminded?

أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَانٌ مُّبِينٌ ١٥٦

Or do you have a clear authority?

فَأْتُوا بِكِتَابِكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ ١٥٧

Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.

وَجَعَلُوا بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْجِنَّةِ نَسَبًا وَلَقَدْ عَلِمَتِ الْجِنَّةُ إِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ ١٥٨

And they have made [i.e., claimed] between Him and the jinn a lineage, but the jinn have already known that they [who made such claims] will be brought [to punishment].

سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ ١٥٩

Exalted is Allāh above what they describe,

إِلَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ ١٦٠

Except the chosen servants of Allāh [who do not share in that sin].

فَإِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ ١٦١

So indeed, you [disbelievers] and whatever you worship,

مَا أَنتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفَاتِنِينَ ١٦٢

You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him

إِلَّا مَنْ هُوَ صَالِ الْجَحِيمِ ١٦٣

Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire.

وَمَا مِنَّا إِلَّا لَهُ مَقَامٌ مَّعْلُومٌ ١٦٤

[The angels say], "There is not among us any except that he has a known position.

وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الصَّافُّونَ ١٦٥

And indeed, we are those who line up [for prayer].

وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْمُسَبِّحُونَ ١٦٦

And indeed, we are those who exalt Allāh."

وَإِن كَانُوا لَيَقُولُونَ ١٦٧

And indeed, they [i.e., the disbelievers] used to say,

لَوْ أَنَّ عِندَنَا ذِكْرًا مِّنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ ١٦٨

"If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,

لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ ١٦٩

We would have been the chosen servants of Allāh."

فَكَفَرُوا بِهِ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ ١٧٠

But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.

وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا الْمُرْسَلِينَ ١٧١

And Our word [i.e., decree] has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,

إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ الْمَنصُورُونَ ١٧٢

[That] indeed, they would be those given victory

وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ الْغَالِبُونَ ١٧٣

And [that] indeed, Our soldiers [i.e., the believers] will be those who overcome.

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ ١٧٤

So, [O Muḥammad], leave them for a time.

وَأَبْصِرْهُمْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ ١٧٥

And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.

أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ ١٧٦

Then for Our punishment are they impatient?

فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ فَسَاءَ صَبَاحُ الْمُنذَرِينَ ١٧٧

But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.

وَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ ١٧٨

And leave them for a time.

وَأَبْصِرْ فَسَوْفَ يُبْصِرُونَ ١٧٩

And see, for they are going to see.

سُبْحَانَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ الْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ ١٨٠

Exalted is your Lord, the Lord of might, above what they describe.

وَسَلَامٌ عَلَى الْمُرْسَلِينَ ١٨١

And peace upon the messengers.

وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ١٨٢

And praise to Allāh, Lord of the worlds.
