    English - Chapter 96

    Translation by Safi Kaskas

    Verse 1

    Recite in the name of your Lord who created

    Verse 2

    created the human being from a clinging substance

    Verse 3

    Recite, and your Lord is the most generous

    Verse 4

    Who taught by the pen

    Verse 5

    He taught the human being that which he knew not

    Verse 6

    No! [But] indeed, the human being transgresses

    Verse 7

    because he sees himself self-sufficient

    Verse 8

    Indeed, to your Lord is the return

    Verse 9

    Have you seen the one who forbids

    Verse 10

    a servant from praying

    Verse 11

    Have you seen if he is on [the road of] guidance

    Verse 12

    Or enjoins righteousness

    Verse 13

    Have you seen if he rejects and turns away

    Verse 14

    Does he not know that God sees

    Verse 15

    No! If he doesn't stop, We will surely drag him by the forelock

    Verse 16

    a lying, sinning forelock

    Verse 17

    Then let him call his associates

    Verse 18

    We will call the angels of Hell

    Verse 19

    No! Do not obey him. But prostrate yourselves and draw near [to God]
