Complete Translation of Sura al Yasin

In The Name Of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful

(1) Ya Seen.

(2) I swear by the Quran full of wisdom.

(3) Most surely you are one of the messengers.

(4) On a right way.

(5) A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful.

(6) That you may warn a people whose fathers were not warned, so they are heedless.

(7) Certainly the word has proved true of most of them, so they do not believe.



(10) And it is alike to them whether you warn them or warn them not: they do not believe.

(11) You can only warn him who follows the reminder and fears the Beneficent Allah in secret; so announce to him forgiveness and an honorable reward.


(13) And set out to them an example of the people of the town, when the messengers came to it.


(15) They said: You are naught but mortals like ourselves, nor has the Beneficent Allah revealed anything; you only lie.

(16) They said: Our Lord knows that we are most surely messengers to you.

(17) And nothing devolves on us but a clear deliverance (of the message).



(20) And from the remote part of the city there came a man running, he said: O my people! follow the messengers;

(21) Follow him who does not ask you for reward, and they are the followers of the right course;



(24) In that case I shall most surely be in clear error:

(25) Surely I believe in your Lord, therefore hear me.

(26) It was said: Enter the garden. He said: O would that my people had known

(27) Of that on account of which my Lord has forgiven me and made me of the honored ones!


(29) It was naught but a single cry, and lo! they were still.

(30) Alas for the servants! there comes not to them an messenger but they mock at him.

(31) Do they not consider how many of the generations have We destroyed before them, because they do not turn to them?

(32) And all of them shall surely be brought before Us.


(34) And We make therein gardens of palms and grapevines and We make springs to flow forth in it,

(35) That they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hands did not make it; will they not then be grateful?



(38) And the sun runs on to a term appointed for it; that is the ordinance of the Mighty, the Knowing.



(41) And a sign to them is that We bear their offspring in the laden ship. 

(42) And We have created for them the like of it, what they will ride on.

(43) And if We please, We can drown them, then there shall be no succorer for them, nor shall they be rescued

(44) But (by) mercy from Us and for enjoyment till a time.

(45) And when it is said to them: Guard against what is before you and what is behind you, that mercy may be had on you.

(46) And there comes not to them a communication of the communications of their Lord but they turn aside from it.


(48) And they say: When will this threat come to pass, if you are truthful?

(49) They wait not for aught but a single cry which will overtake them while they yet contend with one another.

(50) So they shall not be able to make a bequest, nor shall they return to their families.

(51) And the trumpet shall be blown, when lo! From their graves they shall hasten on to their Lord.


(53) There would be naught but a single cry, when lo! they shall all be brought before Us;


(55) Surely the dwellers of the garden shall on that day be in an occupation quite happy.

(56) They and their wives shall be in shades, reclining on raised couches.

(57) They shall have fruits therein, and they shall have whatever they desire.

(58) Peace: a word from a Merciful Lord.

(59) And get aside today, O guilty ones!


(61) And that you should serve Me; this is the right way.

(62) And certainly he led astray numerous people from among you. What! could you not then understand?

(63) This is the hell with which you were threatened.

(64) Enter into it this day because you disbelieved.


(66) And if We please We would certainly put out their eyes, then they would run about groping for the way, but how should they see?




(70) That it may warn him who would have life, and (that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers.



(73) And therein they have advantages and drinks; will they not then be grateful?

(74) And they have taken gods besides Allah that they may be helped.

(75) (But) they shall not be able to assist them, and they shall be a host brought up before them.

(76) Therefore let not their speech grieve you; surely We know what they do in secret and what they do openly.

(77) Does not man see that We have created him from the small seed? Then lo! he is an open disputant.


(79) Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation



(82) His command, when He intends anything, is only to say to it: Be, so it is.

(83) Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back.
