1 The Clot

اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ

READ with the Name of your Rabb (with the knowledge that comprises your being) who created.

Iqra/ bi-ismi rabbika allathee khalaqa

خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ

Created man from alaq (a clot of blood; genetic composition).

Khalaqa al-insana min AAalaqin

اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ

READ! For your Rabb is Akram (most generous).

Iqra/ warabbuka al-akramu

الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ

Who taught (programmed the genes and the essential qualities) by the Pen.

Allathee AAallama bialqalami

عَلَّمَ الْإِنسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ

Taught man that which he knew not.

AAallama al-insana ma lam yaAAlam

كَلَّا إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَيَطْغَىٰ

No (it is not like what they think)! Indeed, man transgresses (pursues and indulges in his desires when he lives cocooned from his essence);

Kalla inna al-insana layatgha

أَن رَّآهُ اسْتَغْنَىٰ

Because he sees himself as self-sufficient (the veil of his ego makes him think he is not in need of the reality).

An raahu istaghna

إِنَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ الرُّجْعَىٰ

Indeed, to your Rabb is the return!

Inna ila rabbika alrrujAAa

أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهَىٰ

Did you see the one who prevents,

عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّىٰ

A servant at prayer!

AAabdan itha salla

أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى الْهُدَىٰ

Did you see (have a think)! What if he is living the reality?

Araayta in kana AAala alhuda

أَوْ أَمَرَ بِالتَّقْوَىٰ

Or demands protection!

Aw amara bialttaqwa

أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

Have a think! What if he denied (his essence) and turned away?

Araayta in kaththaba watawalla

أَلَمْ يَعْلَم بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَرَىٰ

Does he not know that Allah sees?

Alam yaAAlam bi-anna Allaha yara

كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًا بِالنَّاصِيَةِ

No (it is not like what they think)! Indeed, if he does not desist, We will drag him by his forehead (brain)!

Kalla la-in lam yantahi lanasfaAAan bialnnasiyati

نَاصِيَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ

A lying, mistaken (driven by corporeality) forehead (brain)!

Nasiyatin kathibatin khati-atin</b

فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُ

Then let him call his council!

FalyadAAu nadiyahu

سَنَدْعُ الزَّبَانِيَةَ

And We shall call the keepers of Hell (the degenerating forces of Fire)!

SanadAAu alzzabaniyata

كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِب

No, do not! Do not obey him! Prostrate and draw near! (This is a verse of prostration.)
