The All Compassionate (Al-Rahman)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
۞ AR-RAHMAN 1 It is He Who has taught the Qur'an. 2 He created man. 3 and has taught him articulate speech. 4 The sun and the moon are made punctual. 5 The stars and the trees prostrate themselves. 6 And Allah has raised the sky; and He has set the balance. 7 (Transgress not in the Balance, 8 And observe the weight with equity, and make not deficient the balance. 9 And the earth! He hath lain it out for the creatures. 10 Therein are fruits and palm trees with sheaths, 11 And also corn, with (its) leaves and stalk for fodder, and sweet-scented plants. 12 Which favors of your Lord will you both (humans and jinn) belie? 13 He created man from dry clay like earthen vessels, 14 and jinn from the many colored flames of fire. 15 Which, then, of your Sustainer's powers can you disavow? 16 Lord of the two Easts, and Lord of the two Wests! 17 Which then of the bounties of your Lord will you deny? 18 He has let forth the two seas, they meet together, 19 With an interstice between them which they cannot cross. 20 Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny? 21 Out of them come Pearls and Coral: 22 Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny? 23 And His are the ships reared aloft in the sea like mountains. 24 So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny? 25
