The All Compassionate (Al-Rahman)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
۞ The Merciful One 1 Taught the Qur'an, 2 He created man 3 and has taught him intelligible speech. 4 The sun and the moon are made punctual. 5 and the stars and the trees bow themselves; 6 And the heaven! He hath elevated it, and He hath set the balance. 7 so that you would maintain justice. 8 And observe the weight with equity, and make not deficient the balance. 9 And He has set up the earth for all beings. 10 Wherein are fruit and sheathed palm-trees, 11 Also corn, with (its) leaves and stalk for fodder, and sweet-smelling plants. 12 Which then of the bounties of your Lord will you deny? 13 He created man from clay like [that of] pottery. 14 and jinn from the many colored flames of fire. 15 Which, then, of the benefits of your Lord will ye twain belie 16 Lord of the two easts and of the two wests is He. 17 So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny? 18 He has let forth the two seas, they meet together, 19 between them a barrier they do not overpass. 20 Which favors of your Lord will you both belie? 21 There come forth from the twain the pearl and the coral. 22 O which of your Lord's bounties will you and you deny? 23 His are the ships displayed upon the sea, like banners. 24 Which favors of your Lord will you both belie? 25
