96:1 Read in (the) name (of) your Lord the One Who created -
خَلَقَ
ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ
مِنۡ
عَلَقٍ 
٢
96:2 He created man from a clinging substance.
ٱقۡرَأۡ
وَرَبُّكَ
ٱلۡأَكۡرَمُ 
٣
96:3 Read, and your Lord (is) the Most Generous,
ٱلَّذِی
عَلَّمَ
بِٱلۡقَلَمِ 
٤
96:4 The One Who taught by the pen,
عَلَّمَ
ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ
مَا
لَمۡ
یَعۡلَمۡ 
٥
96:5 Taught man what not he knew.
كَلَّاۤ
إِنَّ
ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ
لَیَطۡغَىٰۤ 
٦
96:6 Nay! Indeed, man surely transgresses,
أَن
رَّءَاهُ
ٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰۤ 
٧
96:7 That he sees himself self-sufficient.
إِنَّ
إِلَىٰ
رَبِّكَ
ٱلرُّجۡعَىٰۤ 
٨
96:8 Indeed, to your Lord (is) the return.
أَرَءَیۡتَ
ٱلَّذِی
یَنۡهَىٰ 
٩
96:9 Have you seen the one who forbids
عَبۡدًا
إِذَا
صَلَّىٰۤ 
١٠
96:10 A slave when he prays?
أَرَءَیۡتَ
إِن
كَانَ
عَلَى
ٱلۡهُدَىٰۤ 
١١
96:11 Have you seen if he is upon [the] guidance,
أَوۡ
أَمَرَ
بِٱلتَّقۡوَىٰۤ 
١٢
96:12 Or he enjoins [of the] righteousness?
أَرَءَیۡتَ
إِن
كَذَّبَ
وَتَوَلَّىٰۤ 
١٣
96:13 Have you seen if he denies and turns away?
أَلَمۡ
یَعۡلَم
بِأَنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
یَرَىٰ 
١٤
96:14 Does not he know that Allah sees?
كَلَّا
لَىِٕن
لَّمۡ
یَنتَهِ
لَنَسۡفَعَۢا
بِٱلنَّاصِیَةِ 
١٥
96:15 Nay! If not he desists, surely We will drag him by the forelock,
نَاصِیَةࣲ
كَـٰذِبَةٍ
خَاطِئَةࣲ 
١٦
96:16 A forelock lying, sinful.
فَلۡیَدۡعُ
نَادِیَهُۥ 
١٧
96:17 Then let him call his associates,
سَنَدۡعُ
ٱلزَّبَانِیَةَ 
١٨
96:18 We will call the Angels of Hell.
كَلَّا
لَا
تُطِعۡهُ
وَ̅ٱ̅سۡ̅جُ̅دۡ̅
وَٱقۡتَرِب  ۩
19
96:19 Nay! (Do) not obey him. But prostrate and draw near (to Allah).
