اِنَّهٗ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُوۡلٍ كَرِيۡمٍۚ ۙ‏ ﴿۴۰﴾

وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرٍ‌ؕ قَلِيۡلاً مَّا تُؤۡمِنُوۡنَۙ‏ ﴿۴۱﴾

It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe! ﴾41﴿

وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنٍ‌ؕ قَلِيۡلاً مَّا تَذَكَّرُوۡنَؕ‏ ﴿۴۲﴾

Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember! ﴾42﴿

تَنۡزِيۡلٌ مِّنۡ رَّبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۴۳﴾

It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds. ﴾43﴿

وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيۡنَا بَعۡضَ الۡاَقَاوِيۡلِۙ‏ ﴿۴۴﴾

And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us, ﴾44﴿

لَاَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُ بِالۡيَمِيۡنِۙ‏ ﴿۴۵﴾

فَمَا مِنۡكُمۡ مِّنۡ اَحَدٍ عَنۡهُ حَاجِزِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۴۷﴾

وَاِنَّهٗ لَتَذۡكِرَةٌ لِّلۡمُتَّقِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۴۸﴾

And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil). ﴾48﴿

وَاِنَّا لَنَعۡلَمُ اَنَّ مِنۡكُمۡ مُّكَذِّبِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۴۹﴾

وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَسۡرَةٌ عَلَى الۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۵۰﴾

And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers. ﴾50﴿

 وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَـقُّ الۡيَقِيۡنِ‏ ﴿۵۱﴾

And lo! it is absolute truth. ﴾51﴿

فَسَبِّحۡ بِاسۡمِ رَبِّكَ الۡعَظِيۡمِ‏ ﴿۵۲﴾

So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord. ﴾52﴿
