Maryam

In the name of God, the All-Benevolent, the Benevolent. Kaf. Ha. Ya. ʿAyn. Ṣad.

ٮسم الله الرحمں الرحٮم كهٮعص

A remembrance of your Guardian's benevolence toward His obedient one Zakariya, when he called upon his Guardian with a hidden call,

دكر رحمٮ رٮك عٮده ركرٮا اد ٮادى رٮه ٮدا حڡٮا

he said: "My Guardian, the bone has indeed grown frail within me, the head has blazed white, and never, in invoking You, my Guardian, have I been wretched.

ڡال رٮ اٮى وهں العطم مٮى واسٮعل الراس سٮٮا ولم اكں ٮدعاٮك رٮ سڡٮا

and make him, my Guardian, well-pleasing."

واحعله رٮ رصٮا

"O Zakariya, We indeed give you glad tidings of a boy: his attribute is Yahya, for whom We have made, before him, no one who shares this attribute."

ٮركرٮا اٮا ٮٮسرك ٮعلم اسمه ٮحٮى لم ٮحعل له مں ڡٮل سمٮا

He said: "My Guardian, how shall I have a boy, when my wife is barren and I have reached, in old age, utter decrepitude?"

ڡال رٮ اٮى ٮكوں لى علم وكاٮٮ امراٮى عاڡرا وڡد ٮلعٮ مں الكٮر عٮٮا

He said: "So it will be. Your Guardian has said: That is easy for Me, and I created you before, when you were nothing."

ڡال كدلك ڡال رٮك هو على هٮں وڡد حلڡٮك مں ڡٮل ولم ٮك سٮا

He said: "Your sign is that you shall not speak to men for three complete nights."

ڡال اٮٮك الا ٮكلم الٮاس ٮلٮ لٮال سوٮا

He came out to his people, from the oratory, and signaled to them: "Glorify at morning and evening."

ڡحرح على ڡومه مں المحراٮ ڡاوحى الٮهم اں سٮحوا ٮكره وعسٮا

And We gave him judgment, while he was a young child,

واٮٮٮه الحكم صٮٮا

and he guarded himself.

وكاں ٮڡٮا

And virtuous toward his parents, he was neither tyrannical nor disobedient.

وٮرا ٮولدٮه ولم ٮكں حٮارا عصٮا

And peace be upon him the day he was born, the day he dies, and the day he is raised alive.

وسلم علٮه ٮوم ولد وٮوم ٮموٮ وٮوم ٮٮعٮ حٮا

So We sent to her Our Influx, who took before her the form of a well-formed human.

ڡارسلٮا الٮها روحٮا ڡٮمٮل لها ٮسرا سوٮا

She said: "I indeed take refuge from you with the All-Benevolent! If you guard yourself…"

ڡالٮ اٮى اعود ٮالرحمں مٮك اں كٮٮ ٮڡٮا

He said: "I am only the messenger of your Guardian, that He may bestow on you a pure boy."

ڡال اٮما اٮا رسول رٮك لاهٮ لك علما ركٮا

She said: "How shall I have a boy, when no human has touched me and I have not been unchaste?"

ڡالٮ اٮى ٮكوں لى علم ولم ٮمسسٮى ٮسر ولم اك ٮعٮا

It is a matter already decreed."

وكاں امرا مڡصٮا

She carried him, then secluded herself with him in a far-off place.

ڡحملٮه ڡاٮٮٮدٮ ٮه مكاٮا ڡصٮا

The pangs of childbirth drove her to the trunk of the palm tree. She said: "Would that I had died before this, and been a thing forgotten, utterly forgotten!"

ڡاحاها المحاص الى حدع الٮحله ڡالٮ ٮلٮٮٮى مٮ ڡٮل هدا وكٮٮ ٮسٮا مٮسٮا

He called to her from below her: "Do not grieve! Your Guardian has set beneath you a couch.

ڡٮادٮها مں ٮحٮها الا ٮحرٮى ڡد حعل رٮك ٮحٮك سرٮا

And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree: it will let fresh, ripe dates tumble upon you.

وهرى الٮك ٮحدع الٮحله ٮسڡط علٮك رطٮا حٮٮا

If you see anyone among the humans, say: 'I have vowed to the All-Benevolent an abstention; so I shall not speak today to any human.'"

ڡاما ٮرٮں مں الٮسر احدا ڡڡولى اٮى ٮدرٮ للرحمں صوما ڡلں اكلم الٮوم اٮسٮا

They said: "O Maryam, you have surely come to a monstrous thing!

ڡالوا ٮمرٮم لڡد حٮٮ سٮا ڡرٮا

O sister of Harun, your father was not a man of evil, nor your mother unchaste."

ٮاحٮ هروں ما كاں اٮوك امرا سو وما كاٮٮ امك ٮعٮا

They said: "How shall we speak to one who is a young child in the cradle?"

ڡالوا كٮڡ ٮكلم مں كاں ڡى المهد صٮٮا

And He has not made me tyrannical or wretched.

ولم ٮحعلٮى حٮارا سڡٮا

And peace be upon me the day I was born, the day I die, and the day I am raised alive."

والسلم على ٮوم ولدٮ وٮوم اموٮ وٮوم اٮعٮ حٮا

the saying of truth, about which they contend.

ڡول الحٯ الدى ڡٮه ٮمٮروں

and it is.

ڡٮكوں

This is a straight path.

هدا صرط مسٮڡٮم

So woe to those who disown, at the witnessing of an immense Day!

ڡوٮل للدٮں كڡروا مں مسهد ٮوم عطٮم

Yet the wrongdoers, today, are in manifest error.

لكں الطلموں الٮوم ڡى صلل مٮٮں

And warn them of the Day of Desolation, when the matter is decided, while they are heedless and do not believe.

واٮدرهم ٮوم الحسره اد ڡصى الامر وهم ڡى عڡله وهم لا ٮومٮوں

and to Us they will be returned.

والٮٮا ٮرحعوں

And mention, in the Scripture, Ibrahim: he was a veracious man, an informant, when he said to his father: "O my father, why do you obey what neither hears nor sees clearly and avails you nothing?

وادكر ڡى الكٮٮ اٮرهٮم اٮه كاں صدٮڡا ٮٮٮا اد ڡال لاٮٮه ٮاٮٮ لم ٮعٮد ما لا ٮسمع ولا ٮٮصر ولا ٮعٮى عٮك سٮا

O my father, there has indeed come to me of knowledge what has not come to you; so follow me, I will guide you along an even path.

ٮاٮٮ اٮى ڡد حاٮى مں العلم ما لم ٮاٮك ڡاٮٮعٮى اهدك صرطا سوٮا

the Diverter is indeed disobedient toward the All-Benevolent.

اں السٮطں كاں للرحمں عصٮا

O my father, I fear that a punishment from the All-Benevolent will touch you, and you become an ally of the Diverter."

ٮاٮٮ اٮى احاڡ اں ٮمسك عداٮ مں الرحمں ڡٮكوں للسٮطں ولٮا

If you do not desist, I will surely banish you! Keep away from me for a long time."

ٮاٮرهٮم لٮں لم ٮٮٮه لارحمٮك واهحرٮى ملٮا

Ibrahim said: "Peace be upon you. I will ask my Guardian's forgiveness for you: He has ever been attentive to me. I draw apart from you and from what you invoke besides God, and I invoke my Guardian; it may be that, in invoking my Guardian, I shall not be wretched."

ڡال سلم علٮك ساسٮعڡر لك رٮى اٮه كاں ٮى حڡٮا واعٮرلكم وما ٮدعوں مں دوں الله وادعوا رٮى عسى الا اكوں ٮدعا رٮى سڡٮا

and each We made an informant.

وكلا حعلٮا ٮٮٮا

And We bestowed on them of Our benevolence, and gave them a lofty tongue of veracity.

ووهٮٮا لهم مں رحمٮٮا وحعلٮا لهم لساں صدٯ علٮا

And mention, in the Scripture, Moussa: he was devoted exclusively to God, and he was a messenger, an informant.

وادكر ڡى الكٮٮ موسى اٮه كاں محلصا وكاں رسولا ٮٮٮا

And We called him from the right side of the Mount, and drew him near in private converse.

وٮدٮٮه مں حاٮٮ الطور الاٮمں وڡرٮٮه ٮحٮا

And We bestowed on him, out of Our benevolence, his brother Harun, an informant.

ووهٮٮا له مں رحمٮٮا احاه هروں ٮٮٮا

and he was, with his Guardian, well-pleasing.

وكاں عٮد رٮه مرصٮا

And mention, in the Scripture, Idris: he was a veracious man, an informant.

وادكر ڡى الكٮٮ ادرٮس اٮه كاں صدٮڡا ٮٮٮا

And We elevated him to a lofty station.

ورڡعٮه مكاٮا علٮا

When the signs of the All-Benevolent were recited to them, they fell down prostrate, weeping.

ادا ٮٮلى علٮهم اٮٮ الرحمں حروا سحدا وٮكٮا

His promise is indeed to be fulfilled.

اٮه كاں وعده ماٮٮا

And they will have their provision there, morning and evening.

ولهم ررڡهم ڡٮها ٮكره وعسٮا

Such is the Garden that We shall give as inheritance, among Our obedient ones, to whoever guarded himself.

ٮلك الحٮه الٮى ٮورٮ مں عٮادٮا مں كاں ٮڡٮا

And your Guardian is never forgetful."

وما كاں رٮك ٮسٮا

Do you know anyone who shares His attribute?

هل ٮعلم له سمٮا

And the human being says: "When I am dead, shall I really be brought forth alive?"

وٮڡول الاٮسں ادا ما مٮ لسوڡ احرح حٮا

Does the human being not remember that We created him before, when he was nothing?

اولا ٮدكر الاٮسں اٮا حلڡٮه مں ڡٮل ولم ٮك سٮا

By your Guardian, We will surely gather them, along with the Diverters; then We will surely bring them around Jahannam, on their knees.

ڡورٮك لٮحسرٮهم والسٮطٮں ٮم لٮحصرٮهم حول حهٮم حٮٮا

Then We will surely pluck out, from every faction, those most insolent toward the All-Benevolent.

ٮم لٮٮرعں مں كل سٮعه اٮهم اسد على الرحمں عٮٮا

Then it is We who know best who most deserves to burn in it.

ٮم لٮحں اعلم ٮالدٮں هم اولى ٮها صلٮا

And there is none of you but will arrive at it: that is, for your Guardian, an irrevocable sentence.

واں مٮكم الا واردها كاں على رٮك حٮما مڡصٮا

Then We will save those who guarded themselves, and forsake the wrongdoers in it, on their knees.

ٮم ٮٮحى الدٮں اٮڡوا وٮدر الطلمٮں ڡٮها حٮٮا

And when Our clear signs are recited to them, those who disown say to those who believe: "Which of the two fractions has the better standing and the more beautiful circle?"

وادا ٮٮلى علٮهم اٮٮٮا ٮٮٮٮ ڡال الدٮں كڡروا للدٮں امٮوا اى الڡرٮڡٮں حٮر مڡاما واحسں ٮدٮا

How many a generation before them We have annihilated, more beautiful in possessions and in looks!

وكم اهلكٮا ڡٮلهم مں ڡرں هم احسں اٮٮا ورٮا

until, seeing what they are promised — either the punishment or the Hour — they know who has the worst place and who is weakest in army."

حٮى ادا راوا ما ٮوعدوں اما العداٮ واما الساعه ڡسٮعلموں مں هو سر مكاٮا واصعڡ حٮدا

And the enduring, sound deeds are, with your Guardian, better in requital and better in what they yield.

والٮڡٮٮ الصلحٮ حٮر عٮد رٮك ٮواٮا وحٮر مردا

We will record what he says and extend for him the punishment, at length.

سٮكٮٮ ما ٮڡول وٮمد له مں العداٮ مدا

And We will inherit what he says, and he will come to Us, alone.

وٮرٮه ما ٮڡول وٮاٮٮٮا ڡردا

They will disown their obedience and stand against them as adversaries.

سٮكڡروں ٮعٮادٮهم وٮكوٮوں علٮهم صدا

Have you not seen that We have loosed the Diverters upon those who disown, inflaming them relentlessly?

الم ٮر اٮا ارسلٮا السٮطٮں على الكڡرٮں ٮورهم ارا

We only number for them, one by one.

اٮما ٮعد لهم عدا

The Day We gather those who guarded themselves to the All-Benevolent, as a delegation, and drive the severed to Jahannam, to arrive there.

ٮوم ٮحسر المٮڡٮں الى الرحمں وڡدا وٮسوٯ المحرمٮں الى حهٮم وردا

They will possess no intercession, except one who has taken a pact with the All-Benevolent.

لا ٮملكوں السڡعه الا مں اٮحد عٮد الرحمں عهدا

And they have said: "The All-Benevolent has taken a child."

وڡالوا اٮحد الرحمں ولدا

You have surely come to an enormity! The heavens are close to being rent asunder by it, the earth to splitting open, and the mountains to falling in rubble — that they have ascribed a child to the All-Benevolent.

لڡد حٮٮم سٮا ادا ٮكاد السموٮ ٮٮڡطرں مٮه وٮٮسٯ الارص وٮحر الحٮال هدا اں دعوا للرحمں ولدا

It does not befit the All-Benevolent to take a child.

وما ٮٮٮعى للرحمں اں ٮٮحد ولدا

There is none in the heavens and the earth but comes to the All-Benevolent as an obedient one.

اں كل مں ڡى السموٮ والارص الا اٮى الرحمں عٮدا

He has surely enumerated them and numbered them, one by one.

لڡد احصٮهم وعدهم عدا

And each of them will come to Him, on the Day of Appearance, alone.

وكلهم اٮٮه ٮوم الڡٮمه ڡردا

To those who have believed and done sound deeds, the All-Benevolent will indeed grant affection.

اں الدٮں امٮوا وعملوا الصلحٮ سٮحعل لهم الرحمں ودا

We have made it easy on your tongue only so that you may give glad tidings by it to those who guard themselves and warn by it a fierce people.

ڡاٮما ٮسرٮه ٮلساٮك لٮٮسر ٮه المٮڡٮں وٮٮدر ٮه ڡوما لدا

How many a generation before them We have annihilated! Do you perceive a single one of them, or hear from them the faintest murmur?

وكم اهلكٮا ڡٮلهم مں ڡرں هل ٮحس مٮهم مں احد او ٮسمع لهم ركرا
