124
وَإِذَا مَاۤ أُنزِلَتۡ سُورَةࣱ فَمِنۡهُم مَّن یَقُولُ أَیُّكُمۡ زَادَتۡهُ هَـٰذِهِۦۤ إِیمَـٰنࣰاۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ فَزَادَتۡهُمۡ إِیمَـٰنࣰا وَهُمۡ یَسۡتَبۡشِرُونَ ١٢٤
wa-idhā mā unzilat sūratun famin'hum man yaqūlu ayyukum zādathu hādhihi īmānan fa-ammā alladhīna āmanū fazādathum īmānan wahum yastabshirūn
When a sura is revealed, some [hypocrites] say, ‘Have any of you been strengthened in faith by it?’ It certainly does strengthen the faith of those who believe and they rejoice
125
وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ فِی قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضࣱ فَزَادَتۡهُمۡ رِجۡسًا إِلَىٰ رِجۡسِهِمۡ وَمَاتُوا۟ وَهُمۡ كَـٰفِرُونَ ١٢٥
wa-ammā alladhīna fī qulūbihim maraḍun fazādathum rij'san ilā rij'sihim wamātū wahum kāfirūn
but, as for the perverse at heart, each new sura adds further to their perversity. They die disbelieving
126
أَوَ لَا یَرَوۡنَ أَنَّهُمۡ یُفۡتَنُونَ فِی كُلِّ عَامࣲ مَّرَّةً أَوۡ مَرَّتَیۡنِ ثُمَّ لَا یَتُوبُونَ وَلَا هُمۡ یَذَّكَّرُونَ ١٢٦
awalā yarawna annahum yuf'tanūna fī kulli ʿāmin marratan aw marratayni thumma lā yatūbūna walā hum yadhakkarūn
Can they not see that they are afflicted once or twice a year? Yet they neither repent nor take heed
127
وَإِذَا مَاۤ أُنزِلَتۡ سُورَةࣱ نَّظَرَ بَعۡضُهُمۡ إِلَىٰ بَعۡضٍ هَلۡ یَرَىٰكُم مِّنۡ أَحَدࣲ ثُمَّ ٱنصَرَفُوا۟ۚ صَرَفَ ٱللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُم بِأَنَّهُمۡ قَوۡمࣱ لَّا یَفۡقَهُونَ ١٢٧
wa-idhā mā unzilat sūratun naẓara baʿḍuhum ilā baʿḍin hal yarākum min aḥadin thumma inṣarafū ṣarafa l-lahu qulūbahum bi-annahum qawmun lā yafqahūn
Whenever a sura is revealed, they look at each other and say, ‘Is anyone watching you?’ and then they turn away- God has turned their hearts away because they are people who do not use their reason
128
لَقَدۡ جَاۤءَكُمۡ رَسُولࣱ مِّنۡ أَنفُسِكُمۡ عَزِیزٌ عَلَیۡهِ مَا عَنِتُّمۡ حَرِیصٌ عَلَیۡكُم بِٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِینَ رَءُوفࣱ رَّحِیمࣱ ١٢٨
laqad jāakum rasūlun min anfusikum ʿazīzun ʿalayhi mā ʿanittum ḥarīṣun ʿalaykum bil-mu'minīna raūfun raḥīmu
A Messenger has come to you from among yourselves. Your suffering distresses him: he is deeply concerned for you and full of kindness and mercy towards the believers
129
فَإِن تَوَلَّوۡا۟ فَقُلۡ حَسۡبِیَ ٱللَّهُ لَاۤ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَۖ عَلَیۡهِ تَوَكَّلۡتُۖ وَهُوَ رَبُّ ٱلۡعَرۡشِ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ١٢٩
fa-in tawallaw faqul ḥasbiya l-lahu lā ilāha illā huwa ʿalayhi tawakkaltu wahuwa rabbu l-ʿarshi l-ʿaẓīm
If they turn away, [Prophet], say ,‘God is enough for me: there is no god but Him; I put my trust in Him; He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne.’
