وَلا يُمْكِنُ الْفِرَارُ مِنْ حُكُومَتِكَ
|
wa-l¡ yum-kinul-fir¡ru min ¦uk£-matik

And escape from Your governance is impossible.

O Allah, I find no forgiver of my sins,

Nor transformer of any of my ugly acts into good acts but You
|
لا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنتَ

|
There is no god but You!
|
سُبْحَانَكَ وَبِحَمْدِكَ

sub-¦¡naka wa bi¦am-dika
|
Glory be to You, and Thine is the praise!
|
ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي

¨alam-tu naf-s¢
|
I have wronged myself,
|
وَتَجَرَّأْتُ بِجَهْلِي
|
wa tajar-ratu bijah-l¢
|
And I have been audacious in my ignorance
|
وَسَكَنتُ إِلَي قَدِيمِ ذِكْرِكَ لِي وَمَنِّكَ عَلَيَّ
|
wa sakan-tu il¡ qad¢mi dhik-rika l¢ wa man-nika `alay

And I have depended upon Your ancient remembrance of me and Your favour toward me.

O Allah! O my Protector!
|
كَم مِّن قَبِيحٍ سَتَرْتَهُ

How many ugly things You hast concealed!
|
وَكَم مِّن فَاِدحٍ مِّنَ البَلاءِ أَقَلْتَهُ

How many burdensome tribulations You hast abolished!

وَكَم مِّنْ عِثَارٍ وَّقَيْتَهُ

|
And how many stumbles You hast prevented!

وَكَم مِّن مَّكْرُوهٍ دَفَعْتَهُ

And how many ordeals You hast repelled!

And how much beautiful praise, for which I was unworthy, You hast spread abroad!

|
O Allah, my tribulation is tremendous,
|
وَأَفْرَطَ بِي سُوءُ حَاِلي

wa af-ra§a b¢ s£o-u ¦¡l¢
|
And my bad state is excessive,

وَقَصُرَتْ بِي أَعْمَاِلي

|
And my acts are inadequate,
|
وَقَعَدَتْ بِي أَغْلاَلِي

|
And my fetters have tied me down,
|
وَحَبَسَنِي عَن نَّفْعِي بُعْدُ آمَاِلي
|
wa ¦abasan¢ `an-naf-e'e bu`a-du ¡-m¡-l¢
|
And my far-fetched hopes have held me back from my gain
|
وَخَدَعَتْنِي الدُّنْيَا بِغُرُورِهَا وَنَفْسِي بِجِنَايَتِهَا وَمِطَاِلي
|
wa khada`at-nid-duny¡ bi-ghur£ri-h¡ wa naf-s¢ bi-jin¡yatih¡ wa mi§¡-l¢
|
And this world with its delusions, my own soul with its offences and my delay have deceived me.
|
يَا سَيِّدِي فَأَسْألُكَ بِعِزَّتِكَ أَن لا يَحْجُبَ عَنْكَ دُعَائِي سُوءُ عَمَلِي وَفِعَاِلي

y¡ say-yid¢ fa-as-aluka bi-i'z-zatika an l¡ ya¦-juba `an-ka du`a¡-¢ s£o-u `amal¢ wa f¢`¡l¢
|
O my Master! So I ask You by Your might not to let my evil works and acts veil my supplication from You,
|
وَلا تَفْضَحَنِي بِخَفِيِّ مَا اطَّلَعْتَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ سِرِّي
|
wa-l¡ taf-¤a¦-n¢ bi-khaf¢-yi m¡§-§ala`ta `ailayhi min sir-r¢
|
And not to disgrace me through the hidden things You knowest of my secrets
|
وَلا تُعَاجِلْنِي بِالْعُقُوبَةِ عَلَى مَا عَمِلْتُهُ فِي خَلَوَاتِي
|
wa-l¡ tu`¡jil-n¢ bil-u'q£bati `al¡ m¡ `amil-tuhu f¢ khalaw¡t¢
|
And not to hasten me to punishment for what I have done in private:
|
مِنْ سُوءِ فِعْلِي وَإِسَاءَتِي،
|
min s£o-i fi`a-l¢ wa is¡-at¢
|
My evil acts in secrecy and my misdeeds
|
وَدَوَامِ تَفْرِيطِي وَجَهَالَتِي
|
wa daw¡mi taf-r¢§¢ wa jah¡lat¢
|
And my continuous negligence and my ignorance
|
وَكَثْرَةِ شَهَوَاتِي وَغَفْلَتِي
|
wa kath-rati sha-haw¡t¢ wa ghaf-lat¢
|
And my manifold passions and my forgetfulness.
|
وَكُنِ اللَّهُمَّ بِعِزَّتِكَ لِي فِي كُلِّ الأَحْوَاِل رَؤُوفاً
|
wa kunil-l¡humma bi-i'z-zatika l¢ f¢ kul-lil-a¦-w¡li ra’£f¡
|
And by Your might, O Allah, be kind to me in all states
|
وَّعَلَيَّ فِي جَمِيعِ الأُمُورِ عَطُوفاً
|
wa `alay-ya f¢ jam¢i'l-um£r¢ `a§£f¡
|
And be gracious to me in all affairs!
|
إِلَهِي وَرَبِّي مَن لِّي غَيْرُكَ أَسْألُهُ كَشْفَ ضُرِّي وَالْنَّظَرَ فِي أَمْرِي!
|
ilah¢ wa rab-b¢ mal-l¢ ghayruka as-aluhu kash-fa ¤ur-r¢ wan-na¨ara f¢ am-r¢!

My God and my Lord! Have I any but You from whom to ask removal of my affliction and regard for my affairs!
|
إِلَهِي وَمَوْلاي أَجْرَيْتَ عَلَيَّ حُكْماً اتَّبَعْتُ فِيهِ هَوَى نَفْسِي،
|
ilah¢ wa maw-laya aj-rayta `alay-ya ¦uk-mant-taba`tu f¢hi haw¡ naf-s¢
|
My God and my Protector! You put into effect through me a decree in which I followed the caprice of my own soul
|
وَلَمْ أَحْتَرِسْ فِيهِ مِن تَزْيينِ عَدُوِّي،
|
wa lam a¦-taris f¢hi min tazy¢ni `ad£-w¢
|
And [I] did not remain wary of adorning my enemy.
|
فَغَرَّنِي بِمَا أَهْوَى وَأَسْعَدَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ القَضَاءُ
|
fa-ghar-ran¢ bi-m¡ ah-w¡ wa as-`adahu `al¡ dh¡-likal-qa¤¡
|
So he deluded me through my soul's caprice and therein destiny favoured him
|
فَتَجَاوَزْتُ بِمَا جَرَى عَلَيَّ مِنْ ذَلِكَ بَعْضَ حُدُودِكَ
|
fa-taj¡-waztu bi-m¡ jar¡ `alay-ya min dh¡-lika ba`¤a ¦ud£dik
|
So, in what was put into effect through me in that situation, I transgressed some of Your statutes
|
وَخَالَفْتُ بَعْضَ أَوَامِرِكَ
|
wa kh¡laf-tu ba`¤a aw¡mirik
|
And disobeyed some of Your commands.
|
فَلَكَ الْحُجَّةُ عَلَيَّ فِي جَمِيعِ ذَلِكَ
|
falakal-¦uj-jatu `alay-ya f¢ jam¢i' dh¡lik
|
So Thine is the argument against me in all of that
|
وَلا حُجَّةَ لِي فِيمَا جَرَي عَلَيَّ فِيهِ قَضَاؤُكَ،
|
wa-l¡ ¦uj-jata l¢ f¢m¡ jar¡ `alay-ya f¢hi qa¤¡uka
|
I have no argument in what Your destiny put into effect through me therein
|
وَأَلْزَمَنِي حُكْمُكَ وَبَلاؤُكَ
|
wa alzaman¢ ¦uk-muka wa bal¡uk
|
nor in what Your decree and Your tribulation imposed upon me.
|
وَقَدْ أَتَيْتُكَ يَا إِلَهِي بَعْدَ تَقْصِيرِي وَإِسْرَافِي عَلَى نَفْسِي
|
wa qad ataytuka y¡ ilah¢ ba`da taq-¥¢r¢ wa is-r¡f¢ `al¡ naf-s¢

Now I have come to You, My God, after my shortcoming and my immoderation toward myself,
|
مُعْتَذِراً نَّادِماً،

|
Proffering my excuse, regretful,

Broken, apologizing,

Asking forgiveness, repenting,

muqir-r¡m-mudhi'n¡m-mu`a-tarifa

Acknowledging, submissive, confessing.

Nor any place of escape to which I may turn in my affairs,

Other than Your acceptance of my excuse and Your entering me into the compass of Your mercy.

|
O Allah, so accept my excuse,

|
Have mercy upon the severity of my affliction
|
وَفُكَّنِي مِن شَدِّ وَثَاقِي

|
And release me from the tightness of my fetters,

And the remembrance of You my tongue has constantly mentioned
|
وَاعْتَقَدَهُ ضَمِيرِي مِنْ حُبِّكَ

|
And the love of You to which my mind has clung,

Or banish him whom You hast brought nigh,

|
And over hearts acknowledging Your Divinity through verification,

|
wa `al¡ ¤am¡-ira ¦awat minal-i'l-mi bika ¦at-t¡ ¥¡rat kh¡shi`ah

And over minds encompassing knowledge of You until they have become humble

وَّعَلَى جَواِرحَ سَعَتْ إِلَى أَوْطَانِ تَعَبُّدِكَ طَائِعَةً وَّأَشَارَتْبِاسْتِغْفَارِكَ مُذْعِنَةً
|
wa `al¡ jawari¦a s¡'t il¡ aw-§¡ni t¡'b-budika §¡-i`ataw-wa ash¡rat bis-tigh-f¡rika mudhi'nah

And over bodily members speeding to the places of Your worship in obedience and beckoning for Your forgiveness in submission.
|
مَّا هَكَذَا الظَّنُّ بِكَ وَلا أُخْبِرْنَا بِفَضْلِكَ عَنكَ
|
m¡ hkadh¡¨-¨an-nu bika wa-l¡ ukh-bir-n¡ bi-fa¤lika `anka
|
No such opinion is held of You! Nor has such been reported - thanks to Your bounty — concerning You,
|
يَا كَرِيمُ، يَا رَبِّ
|
y¡ kar¢mu y¡ rab
|
O All-generous! My Lord,
|
وَأَنتَ تَعْلَمُ ضَعْفِي عَن قَلِيلٍ مِّن بَلاءِ الدُّنْيَا وَعُقُوبَاتِهَا،
|
wa anta ta`lamu ¤a`f¢ `an qal¢lim-min bal¡-id-dun-y¡ wa u'q£b¡tih¡
|
And You knowest my weakness before a little of this world's tribulations and punishments,
|
وَمَا يَجْرِي فِيهَا مِنَ الْمَكَارِهِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا
|
wa m¡ yaj-r¢ f¢h¡ minal-mak¡rihi `al¡ ah-lih¡
|
And before those ordeals which befall its inhabitants,
|
عَلَى أَنَّ ذَلِكَ بَلاءٌ وَّمَكْرُوهٌ، قَلِيلٌ مَّكْثُهُ، يَسِيرٌ بَقَاؤُهُ، قَصِيرٌ مُّدَّتُهُ
|
`al¡ an-na dh¡-lika bal¡-uw-wa mak-r£hun, qal¢lum-mak-thuhu, yas¢rum baq¡-uhu, qa¥¢rum-mud-datuh
|
Even though it is a tribulation and ordeal whose stay is short, whose subsistence is but little and, whose period is but fleeting.
|
فَكَيْفَ احْتِمَاِلي لِبَلاءِ الآخِرَةِ وَجَلِيلِ وُقُوعِ الْمَكَارِهِ فِيهَا!
|
fa-kayfa¦-tim¡l¢ li-bal¡-il-akhirati wa jal¢li wuq£i'l-mak¡rihi f¢h¡!
|
So how can I endure the tribulations of the next world and the great ordeals that occur within it?
|
وَهُوَ بَلاءٌ تَطُولُ مُدَّتُهُ، وَيَدُومُ مَقَامُهُ، وَلا يُخَفَّفُ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ
|
wa huwa bal¡-un ta§£lu mud-datuhu, wa yad£mu maq¡muhu, wa-l¡ yukhaf-fafu `an ah-lih
|
For it is a tribulation whose period is long, whose station endures and whose sufferers are given no respite,
|
لأَنَّهُ لا يَكُونُ إِلاَّ عَنْ غَضَبِكَ وَانتِقَامِكَ وَسَخَطِكَ
|
li-an-nahu l¡ yak£nu il-l¡ `an gha¤abika wan-tiq¡mika wa sakha§ik
|
Since it only occurs as a result of Your wrath, Your vengeance and Your anger,
|
وَهَذَا مَا لا تَقُومُ لَهُ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرْضُ
|
wa hadh¡ m¡ l¡ taq£mu lahus-sam¡w¡tu wal-ar¤u
|
And these cannot be withstood by the heavens and the earth.
|
يَا سَيِّدِي فَكَيْفَ بِي
|
y¡ say-yid¢ fakayfa b¢
|
O Master, so what about me?!
|
وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ الضَّعِيفُ الذَّلِيلُ الْحَقِيرُ الْمِسْكِينُ الْمُسْتَكِينُ
|
wa ana `abuka¤-¤ae'efudh-dhal¢lul-¦aq¢rul-mis-k¢nul-mus-tak¢n
|
For I am Your weak, lowly, base, wretched and miserable slave.
|
يَا إِلَهِي وَرَبِّي وَسَيِّدِي وَمَوْلاي
|
y¡ ilah¢ wa rab-b¢ wa say-yid¢ wa maw-l¡y
|
My God! My Lord! My Master! My Protector!
|
لأَيِّ الأُمُورِ إِلَيْكَ أَشْكُو
|
li-ay-yil-um£ri ilayka ash-k£
|
For which things would I complain to You?
|
وَلِمَا مِنْهَا أَضِجُّ وَأَبْكِي
|
wa lim¡ minh¡ a¤ij-ju wa ab-k¢
|
And for which of them would I lament and weep?
|
لأَلِيمِ الْعَذَابِ وَشِدَّتِهِ!
|
li-al¢mil-`adh¡bi wa shid-datih
|
For the pain and severity of chastisement?
|
أَمْ لِطُولِ الْبَلاءِ وَمُدَّتِهِ!
|
am li§£lil-bal¡-i wa mud-datih
|
Or for the length and period of tribulation?
|
فَلَئِن صَيَّرْتَنِي لِلْعُقُوبَاتِ مَعَ أَعْدَائِكَ
|
fa-la-in ¥ay-yar-tan¢ lil-u'q£b¡ti m¡' a`d¡-ik
|
So if You takest me to the punishments with Your enemies,
|
وَجَمَعْتَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ أَهْلِ بَلائِكَ
|
wa jama`ta bayn¢ wa bayna ahli bal¡-ik
|
And gatherest me with the people of Your tribulation
|
وَفَرَّقْتَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ أَحِبَّائِكَ وَأَوْلِيَائِكَ
|
wa far-raq-ta bay-n¢ wa bay-na a¦ib-b¡-ika wa aw-li-y¡-ik
|
And separatest me from Your friends and saints,
|
فَهَبْنِي يَا إِلَهِي وَسَيِّدِي وَمَوْلاي وَرَبِّي صَبَرْتُ عَلَى عَذَابِكَ،
|
fa-hab-n¢ y¡ ilah¢ wasay-yid¢ wa mawlaya wa rab-b¢ ¥abar-tu `al¡ `adh¡bika
|
Then suppose, My God, my Master, my Protector and my Lord that I am able to endure Your chastisement,
|
فَكَيْفَ أَصْبِرُ عَلَى فِرَاقِكَ
|
fakayfa a¥-biru `al¡ fir¡qika
|
How can I endure separation from You?
|
وَهَبْنِي صَبَرْتُ عَلَى حَرِّ نَارِكَ،
|
wa hab-n¢ ¥abar-tu `al¡ ¦ar-ri n¡rika
|
And suppose that I am able to endure the heat of Your fire,
|
فَكَيْفَ أَصْبِرُ عَنِ النَّظَرِ إِلَى كَرَامَتِكَ
|
fakayfa a¥-biru `an-na¨ari il¡ kar¡matik
|
How can I endure not gazing upon Your generosity?
|
أَمْ كَيْفَ أَسْكُنُ فِي النَّارِ وَرَجَائِي عَفْوُكَ
|
am kayfa as-kunu fin-n¡ri wa raj¡-¢ `af-wuk
|
Or how can I dwell in the Fire while my hope is Your pardon?
|
فَبِعِزَّتِكَ يَا سَيِّدِي وَمَوْلاي أُقْسِمُ صَادِقاً، لَئِن تَرَكْتَنِي نَاطِقاً
|
fabi-i'z-zatika y¡ say-yid¢ wa mawlaya uq-simu ¥¡diqal-la-in tarak-tan¢ n¡§iqan
|
So by Your might, my Master and my protector, I swear sincerely, if You leavest me with speech,
|
لأَضِجَّنَّ إِلَيْكَ بَيْنَ أَهْلِهَا ضَجِيجَ الآمِلِينَ
|
la¤ij-jan-na ilayka bayna ah-lih¡ ¤aj¢jal-amil¢n
|
I will lament to You from the midst of the Fire's inhabitants with lamentation of the hopeful;
|
وَلأَصْرُخَنَّ إِلَيكَ صُرَاخَ المُسْتَصْرِخِينَ
|
wa la¥rukhan-na ilayka ¥ur¡khal-mus-ta¥-rikh¢n
|
I will cry to You with the cry of those crying for help;
|
وَلأَبْكِيَنَّ عَلَيْكَ بُكَاءَ الفَاقِدِينَ
|
wa-la-ab-ki-yan-na `ailayka buk¡-al-f¡qid¢n
|
I will weep to You with the weeping of the bereft;
|
وَلأُنَادِيَنَّكَ أَيْنَ كُنتَ يَا وَلِيَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
|
wa la-un¡di-yan-naka ay-na kun-ta y¡ wal¢-yal-mu-min¢n
|
And I will call to You, Where art You, O Sponsor of the believers,
|
يَا غَايَةَ آمَاِل العَارِفِينَ
|

|
O Goal of the hopes of Your knowers,
|
يَا غِيَاثَ المُسْتَغِيثِينَ
|
y¡ ghiy¡thal-mus-tagh¢th¢n
|
O Aid of those who seek assistance,
|
يَا حَبِيبَ قُلُوبِ الصَّادِقِينَ
|

|
O Friend of the hearts of the sincere
|
وَيَا إِلَهَ العَالَمِينَ
|
wa y¡ ilhal-`¡lam¢n
|
And O God of all the world's inhabitants!
|
أَفَتُرَاكَ، سُبْحَانَكَ يَا إِلَهِي وَبِحَمْدِكَ، تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا صَوْتَ عَبْدٍ مُّسْلِمٍ
|
afatur¡ka sub-¦¡naka y¡ ilah¢ wa bi¦am-dika tas-mau' f¢h¡ ¥aw-ta `ab-dim-mus-limin
|
Canst You see Yourself — Glory be to You My God, and Thine is the praised — hearing within the Fire the voice of a slave surrendered to You,
|
سُجِنَ فِيهَا بِمُخَالَفَتِهِ
|
sujina f¢h¡ bi-mukh¡lafatih
|
Imprisoned there because of his violations,
|
وَذَاقَ طَعْمَ عَذَابِهَا بِمَعْصِيَتِهِ
|
wa dh¡qa §a`ma `adh¡bih¡ bi-ma`¥i-yatih
|
Tasting the favour of its torment because of his disobedience,
|
وَحُبِسَ بَيْنَ أَطْبَاقِهَا بِجُرْمِهِ وَجَرِيرَتِهِ
|
wa ¦ubisa bayna a§-b¡qih¡ bijur-mih wa jar¢ratih
|
And confined within its levels because of his sin and crime,
|
وَهُوَ يَضِجُّ إلَيْكَ ضَجِيجَ مُؤَمِّلٍ لِّرَحْمَتِكَ
|
wa huwa ya¤ij-ju ilayka ¤aj¢ja muammilil-lira¦-mat-k
|
While he laments to You with the lament of one hopeful for Your mercy,
|
وَيُنَادِيكَ بِلِسَانِ أَهْلِ تَوْحِيدِكَ
|
wa yun¡d¢ka bi-lis¡ni ahli taw-¦¢dik
|
And calls to You with the tongue of those who profess Your Unity
|
وَيَتَوَسَّلُ إلَيْكَ بِرُبُوبِيَّتِكَ
|
wa yatawas-salu ilayka bi-rub£b¢-yatik
|
And entreats You by Your lordship!
|
يَا مَوْلاي فَكَيْفَ يَبقَى فِي الْعَذَابِ وَهُوَ يَرْجُو مَا سَلَفَ مِنْ حِلْمِكَ
|
y¡ mawl¡y fa-kayfa yabq¡ f¢l-`adh¡bi wa huwa yar-j£ m¡ salafa min ¦il-mik
|
My Protector, so how should he remain in the chastisement, while he has hope for Your previous clemency?
|
أَمْ كَيْفَ تُؤْلِمُهُ النَّارُ وَهُوَ يَامَلُ فَضْلَكَ وَرَحْمَتَكَ
|
am kayfa tu-limuhun-n¡ru wa huwa ya-malu fa¤laka wa ra¦-mataka
|
Or how should the Fire cause him pain while he expects Your bounty and mercy?
|
أَمْ كَيْفَ يُحْرِقُهُ لَهِيبُهَا وَأَنتَ تَسْمَعُ صَوْتَهُ وَتَرَى مَكَانَهُ
|
am kayfa yu¦-riquhu lah¢buh¡ wa anta tas-mau' ¥aw-tahu wa tar¡ mak¡nah
|
Or how should its flames burn him, while You hearest his voice and seest his place?
|
أَمْ كَيْفَ يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَيْهِ زَفِيرُهَا وَأَنتَ تَعْلَمُ ضَعْفَهُ
|
am kayfa yash-tamilu `ailayhi zaf¢ruh¡ wa anta ta`lamu ¤a`fah
|
Or how should its groaning encompass him, while You knowest his weakness?
|
أَمْ كَيْفَ يَتَقَلْقَلُ بَيْنَ أَطْبَاقِهَا وَأَنتَ تَعْلَمُ صِدْقَهُ
|
am kayfa yataqalqalu bayna a§-b¡qih¡ wa anta ta`lamu ¥id-qah
|
Or how should he be convulsed among its levels, while You knowest his sincerity?
|
أَمْ كَيْفَ تَزْجُرُهُ زَبَانِيَتُهَا وَهُوَ يُنَادِيكَ يَا رَبَّهُ
|
am kayfa tazjuruhu zab¡ni-yatuh¡ wa huwa yun¡d¢ka y¡ rab-bah
|
Or how should its keepers torture him while he calls out to You, O Lord?
|
أَمْ كَيْفَ يَرْجُو فَضْلَكَ فِي عِتْقِهِ مِنْهَا فَتَتْرُكُهُ فِيهَا
|
am kayfa yar-j£ fa¤laka f¢ i't-qihi minh¡ fatat-rukuhu f¢h¡
|
Or how should he have hope of Your bounty in freeing him from it, while You abandonest him within it?
|
هَيهَاتَ مَا ذَلِكَ الظَّنُّ بِكَ
|
hayh¡t m¡ dh¡lika¨-¨an-nu bik
|
Far be it from You! That is not what is expected of You,
|
وَلا الْمَعْرُوفُ مِن فَضْلِكَ
|
wa-lal-ma`r£fu min fa¤lik
|
Nor what is well-known of Your bounty,
|
وَلا مُشْبِهٌ لِمَا عَامَلْتَ بِهِ الْمُوَحِّدِينَ مِنْ بِرِّكَ وَإِحْسَانِكَ
|
wa-l¡ mush-biha lim¡ `¡mal-ta bihil-m£a¦-¦id¢na mim bir-rika wa i¦-s¡nik
|
Nor it is similar to the goodness and kindness You hast shown to those who profess Your Unity.
|
فَبِالْيَقِينِ أَقْطَعُ لَوْلا مَا حَكَمْتَ بِهِ مِن تَعْذِيبِ جَاحِدِيكَ
|
fa-bial-yaq¢ni aq-§au' law-l¡ ma ¦akam-ta bihi min ta`dh¢bi j¡¦id¢k
|
So I declare with certainty that were it not for what You hast decreed concerning the chastisement of Your deniers
|
وَقَضَيْتَ بِهِ مِنْ إِخْلاَدِ مُعَانِدِيكَ
|
wa qa¤ayta bihi min ikh-l¡ydi mu`¡nid¢k
|
And what You hast foreordained concerning the everlasting home of those who stubbornly resist,
|
لَجَعَلْتَ النَّارَ كُلَّهَا بَرْداً وَّسَلاَماً،
|
laj¡'l-tan-n¡ra kul-l¡h¡ bar-d¡w-wa sal¡m¡
|
You wouldst make the Fire, all of it, coolness and safety,
|
وَمَا كَانَ لأَحَدٍ فِيهَا مَقَرّاً وَّلا مُقَاماً
|
wa m¡ k¡na li-a¦adin f¢h¡ maqar-r¡w-wa-l¡ muq¡m¡
|
And no one would have a place of rest or abode within it.
|
لَّكِنَّكَ تَقَدَّسَتْ أَسْمَاؤُكَ أَقْسَمْتَ أَنْ تَمْلأَهَا مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ،
|
lakin-naka taqad-dasat as-m¡-uka aq-sam-ta an tam-lah¡ minal-k¡fir¢na;
|
But You—holy are Your Names—hast sworn that You wilt fill it with the unbelievers,
|

|
minal-jin-nati wan-n¡si aj-m`a¢n
|
Both Jinn and men together,
|
وَأَن تُخَلِّدَ فِيهَا الْمُعَانِدِينَ
|
wa-an tukhal-lida f¢h¡l-mu`¡nid¢n
|
And that You wilt place those who stubbornly resist therein forever.
|
وَأَنتَ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُكَ قُلْتَ مُبْتَدَئاً، وَّتَطَوَّلْتَ بِالإِنْعَامِ مُتَكَرِّماً:

|
And You— majestic is Your eulogy— said at the beginning and wernt gracious through kindness as a favour,
|
أَفَمَن كَانَ مُؤْمِنًا كَمَن كَانَ فَاسِقًا ۚ لَّا يَسْتَوُونَ ﴿١٨

(What? Is he who has been believer like unto him who has been ungodly? They are not equal)

And by the decision which You hast determined and imposed and through which You hast overcome him toward whom it has been put into effect,

But through Your mercy You concealed it

And through Your bounty You veiled it.
