لَّا یَأۡكُلُهُۥۤ إِلَّا ٱلۡخَـٰطِءُونَ ۝٣٧

Muhammad Sarwar

which only the sinners eat"

فَلَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝٣٨

falā uq'simu bimā tub'ṣirūn

وَمَا لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝٣٩

Muhammad Sarwar

and what you do not se

wamā lā tub'ṣirūn

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُولࣲ كَرِیمࣲ ۝٤٠

Muhammad Sarwar

because the Quran is certainly the word of a reverent messenger

innahu laqawlu rasūlin karīmi

وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرࣲۚ قَلِیلࣰا مَّا تُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝٤١

Muhammad Sarwar

It is not the word of a poet but only a few of you have faith

وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنࣲۚ قَلِیلࣰا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٤٢

Muhammad Sarwar

nor is it the work of a soothsayer but only a few of you take heed

walā biqawli kāhinin qalīlan mā tadhakkarūn

تَنزِیلࣱ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ۝٤٣

tanzīlun min rabbi l-ʿālamīn

وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَیۡنَا بَعۡضَ ٱلۡأَقَاوِیلِ ۝٤٤

Muhammad Sarwar

Had Muhammad invented some words against Us,

walaw taqawwala ʿalaynā baʿḍa l-aqāwīl

لَأَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُ بِٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٤٥

Muhammad Sarwar

We would have caught hold of him by his right han

la-akhadhnā min'hu bil-yamīn

ثُمَّ لَقَطَعۡنَا مِنۡهُ ٱلۡوَتِینَ ۝٤٦

Muhammad Sarwar

and cut-off his main artery

thumma laqaṭaʿnā min'hu l-watīn

فَمَا مِنكُم مِّنۡ أَحَدٍ عَنۡهُ حَـٰجِزِینَ ۝٤٧

Muhammad Sarwar

None of you would be able to prevent Us from doing this to him

famā minkum min aḥadin ʿanhu ḥājizīn

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَذۡكِرَةࣱ لِّلۡمُتَّقِینَ ۝٤٨

Muhammad Sarwar

The Quran is certainly a reminder for the pious ones

wa-innahu latadhkiratun lil'muttaqīn

وَإِنَّا لَنَعۡلَمُ أَنَّ مِنكُم مُّكَذِّبِینَ ۝٤٩

Muhammad Sarwar

We certainly know that some of you have rejected i

wa-innā lanaʿlamu anna minkum mukadhibīn

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَسۡرَةٌ عَلَى ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ ۝٥٠

Muhammad Sarwar

and (on the Day of Judgment) this will be a great source of regret for the unbelievers

wa-innahu laḥasratun ʿalā l-kāfirīn

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ ٱلۡیَقِینِ ۝٥١

Muhammad Sarwar

This is the Truth beyond any doubt

wa-innahu laḥaqqu l-yaqīn

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٥٢

Muhammad Sarwar

(Muhammad), glorify the name of your Lord, the Great One
