Indeed, Pharaoh exalted himself in the land and made its people into factions, oppressing a sector among them, slaughtering their [newborn] sons and keeping their females alive. Indeed, he was of the corrupters.

Saheeh International

And when he wanted to strike the one who was an enemy to both of them, he said, "O Moses, do you intend to kill me as you killed someone yesterday? You only want to be a tyrant in the land and do not want to be of the amenders."

وَجاءَ رَجُلٌ مِن أَقصَا المَدينَةِ يَسعىٰ قالَ يٰموسىٰ إِنَّ المَلَأَ يَأتَمِرونَ بِكَ لِيَقتُلوكَ فَاخرُج إِنّى لَكَ مِنَ النّٰصِحينَ

28:26

He said, "Indeed, I wish to wed you one of these, my two daughters, on [the condition] that you serve me for eight years; but if you complete ten, it will be [as a favor] from you. And I do not wish to put you in difficulty. You will find me, if Allah wills, from among the righteous."

And when Moses had completed the term and was traveling with his family, he perceived from the direction of the mount a fire. He said to his family, "Stay here; indeed, I have perceived a fire.

Saheeh International

Insert your hand into the opening of your garment; it will come out white, without disease. And draw in your arm close to you [as prevention] from fear, for those are two proofs from your Lord to Pharaoh and his establishment. Indeed, they have been a people defiantly disobedient."

And Moses said, "My Lord is more knowing [than we or you] of who has come with guidance from Him and to whom will be succession in the home. Indeed, wrongdoers do not succeed."

Saheeh International

And Pharaoh said, "O eminent ones, I have not known you to have a god other than me. Then ignite for me, O Haman, [a fire] upon the clay and make for me a tower that I may look at the God of Moses. And indeed, I do think he is among the liars."
28:39
وَاستَكبَرَ هُوَ وَجُنودُهُ فِى الأَرضِ بِغَيرِ الحَقِّ وَظَنّوا أَنَّهُم إِلَينا لا يُرجَعونَ

And if not that a disaster should strike them for what their hands put forth [of sins] and they would say, "Our Lord, why did You not send us a messenger so we could have followed Your verses and been among the believers?"...

Saheeh International

But when the truth came to them from Us, they said, "Why was he not given like that which was given to Moses?" Did they not disbelieve in that which was given to Moses before? They said, "[They are but] two works of magic supporting each other, and indeed we are, in both, disbelievers."
28:49
قُل فَأتوا بِكِتٰبٍ مِن عِندِ اللَّهِ هُوَ أَهدىٰ مِنهُما أَتَّبِعهُ إِن كُنتُم صٰدِقينَ

Those will be given their reward twice for what they patiently endured and [because] they avert evil through good, and from what We have provided them they spend.

Indeed, [O Muhammad], you do not guide whom you like, but Allah guides whom He wills. And He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided.
28:57
وَقالوا إِن نَتَّبِعِ الهُدىٰ مَعَكَ نُتَخَطَّف مِن أَرضِنا ۚ أَوَلَم نُمَكِّن لَهُم حَرَمًا ءامِنًا يُجبىٰ إِلَيهِ ثَمَرٰتُ كُلِّ شَيءٍ رِزقًا مِن لَدُنّا وَلٰكِنَّ أَكثَرَهُم لا يَعلَمونَ

Saheeh International

And they say, "If we were to follow the guidance with you, we would be swept from our land." Have we not established for them a safe sanctuary to which are brought the fruits of all things as provision from Us? But most of them do not know.
28:58
وَكَم أَهلَكنا مِن قَريَةٍ بَطِرَت مَعيشَتَها ۖ فَتِلكَ مَسٰكِنُهُم لَم تُسكَن مِن بَعدِهِم إِلّا قَليلًا ۖ وَكُنّا نَحنُ الوٰرِثينَ

Saheeh International

And how many a city have We destroyed that was insolent in its [way of] living, and those are their dwellings which have not been inhabited after them except briefly. And it is We who were the inheritors.
28:59
وَما كانَ رَبُّكَ مُهلِكَ القُرىٰ حَتّىٰ يَبعَثَ فى أُمِّها رَسولًا يَتلوا عَلَيهِم ءايٰتِنا ۚ وَما كُنّا مُهلِكِى القُرىٰ إِلّا وَأَهلُها ظٰلِمونَ

Saheeh International

And never would your Lord have destroyed the cities until He had sent to their mother a messenger reciting to them Our verses. And We would not destroy the cities except while their people were wrongdoers.

And whatever thing you [people] have been given - it is [only for] the enjoyment of worldly life and its adornment. And what is with Allah is better and more lasting; so will you not use reason?
28:61
أَفَمَن وَعَدنٰهُ وَعدًا حَسَنًا فَهُوَ لٰقيهِ كَمَن مَتَّعنٰهُ مَتٰعَ الحَيوٰةِ الدُّنيا ثُمَّ هُوَ يَومَ القِيٰمَةِ مِنَ المُحضَرينَ

Saheeh International

Then is he whom We have promised a good promise which he will obtain like he for whom We provided enjoyment of worldly life [but] then he is, on the Day of Resurrection, among those presented [for punishment in Hell]?

وَيَومَ يُناديهِم فَيَقولُ أَينَ شُرَكاءِىَ الَّذينَ كُنتُم تَزعُمونَ

Saheeh International

And [warn of] the Day He will call them and say, "Where are My 'partners' which you used to claim?"
28:63
قالَ الَّذينَ حَقَّ عَلَيهِمُ القَولُ رَبَّنا هٰؤُلاءِ الَّذينَ أَغوَينا أَغوَينٰهُم كَما غَوَينا ۖ تَبَرَّأنا إِلَيكَ ۖ ما كانوا إِيّانا يَعبُدونَ

Saheeh International

Those upon whom the word will have come into effect will say, "Our Lord, these are the ones we led to error. We led them to error just as we were in error. We declare our disassociation [from them] to You. They did not used to worship us."
28:64
وَقيلَ ادعوا شُرَكاءَكُم فَدَعَوهُم فَلَم يَستَجيبوا لَهُم وَرَأَوُا العَذابَ ۚ لَو أَنَّهُم كانوا يَهتَدونَ

Saheeh International

And it will be said, "Invoke your 'partners' " and they will invoke them; but they will not respond to them, and they will see the punishment. If only they had followed guidance!
28:65
وَيَومَ يُناديهِم فَيَقولُ ماذا أَجَبتُمُ المُرسَلينَ

Saheeh International

And [mention] the Day He will call them and say, "What did you answer the messengers?"
28:66
فَعَمِيَت عَلَيهِمُ الأَنباءُ يَومَئِذٍ فَهُم لا يَتَساءَلونَ

Saheeh International

But the information will be unapparent to them that Day, so they will not [be able to] ask one another.
28:67
فَأَمّا مَن تابَ وَءامَنَ وَعَمِلَ صٰلِحًا فَعَسىٰ أَن يَكونَ مِنَ المُفلِحينَ

Saheeh International

But as for one who had repented, believed, and done righteousness, it is promised by Allah that he will be among the successful.
28:68
وَرَبُّكَ يَخلُقُ ما يَشاءُ وَيَختارُ ۗ ما كانَ لَهُمُ الخِيَرَةُ ۚ سُبحٰنَ اللَّهِ وَتَعٰلىٰ عَمّا يُشرِكونَ

Saheeh International

And your Lord creates what He wills and chooses; not for them was the choice. Exalted is Allah and high above what they associate with Him.
28:69
وَرَبُّكَ يَعلَمُ ما تُكِنُّ صُدورُهُم وَما يُعلِنونَ

Saheeh International

And your Lord knows what their breasts conceal and what they declare.
28:70
وَهُوَ اللَّهُ لا إِلٰهَ إِلّا هُوَ ۖ لَهُ الحَمدُ فِى الأولىٰ وَالءاخِرَةِ ۖ وَلَهُ الحُكمُ وَإِلَيهِ تُرجَعونَ

Saheeh International

And He is Allah; there is no deity except Him. To Him is [due all] praise in the first [life] and the Hereafter. And His is the [final] decision, and to Him you will be returned.
28:71
قُل أَرَءَيتُم إِن جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيكُمُ الَّيلَ سَرمَدًا إِلىٰ يَومِ القِيٰمَةِ مَن إِلٰهٌ غَيرُ اللَّهِ يَأتيكُم بِضِياءٍ ۖ أَفَلا تَسمَعونَ

Say, "Have you considered: if Allah should make for you the night continuous until the Day of Resurrection, what deity other than Allah could bring you light? Then will you not hear?"
28:72
قُل أَرَءَيتُم إِن جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيكُمُ النَّهارَ سَرمَدًا إِلىٰ يَومِ القِيٰمَةِ مَن إِلٰهٌ غَيرُ اللَّهِ يَأتيكُم بِلَيلٍ تَسكُنونَ فيهِ ۖ أَفَلا تُبصِرونَ

Saheeh International

Say, "Have you considered: if Allah should make for you the day continuous until the Day of Resurrection, what deity other than Allah could bring you a night in which you may rest? Then will you not see?"

Saheeh International

And out of His mercy He made for you the night and the day that you may rest therein and [by day] seek from His bounty and [that] perhaps you will be grateful.

Saheeh International

And We will extract from every nation a witness and say, "Produce your proof," and they will know that the truth belongs to Allah, and lost from them is that which they used to invent.
28:76
۞ إِنَّ قٰرونَ كانَ مِن قَومِ موسىٰ فَبَغىٰ عَلَيهِم ۖ وَءاتَينٰهُ مِنَ الكُنوزِ ما إِنَّ مَفاتِحَهُ لَتَنوأُ بِالعُصبَةِ أُولِى القُوَّةِ إِذ قالَ لَهُ قَومُهُ لا تَفرَح ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُحِبُّ الفَرِحينَ

Saheeh International

Indeed, Qarun was from the people of Moses, but he tyrannized them. And We gave him of treasures whose keys would burden a band of strong men; thereupon his people said to him, "Do not exult. Indeed, Allah does not like the exultant.
28:77
وَابتَغِ فيما ءاتىٰكَ اللَّهُ الدّارَ الءاخِرَةَ ۖ وَلا تَنسَ نَصيبَكَ مِنَ الدُّنيا ۖ وَأَحسِن كَما أَحسَنَ اللَّهُ إِلَيكَ ۖ وَلا تَبغِ الفَسادَ فِى الأَرضِ ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُحِبُّ المُفسِدينَ

Saheeh International

But seek, through that which Allah has given you, the home of the Hereafter; and [yet], do not forget your share of the world. And do good as Allah has done good to you. And desire not corruption in the land. Indeed, Allah does not like corrupters."
28:78
قالَ إِنَّما أوتيتُهُ عَلىٰ عِلمٍ عِندى ۚ أَوَلَم يَعلَم أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَد أَهلَكَ مِن قَبلِهِ مِنَ القُرونِ مَن هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنهُ قُوَّةً وَأَكثَرُ جَمعًا ۚ وَلا يُسـَٔلُ عَن ذُنوبِهِمُ المُجرِمونَ

Saheeh International

He said, "I was only given it because of knowledge I have." Did he not know that Allah had destroyed before him of generations those who were greater than him in power and greater in accumulation [of wealth]? But the criminals, about their sins, will not be asked.
28:79
فَخَرَجَ عَلىٰ قَومِهِ فى زينَتِهِ ۖ قالَ الَّذينَ يُريدونَ الحَيوٰةَ الدُّنيا يٰلَيتَ لَنا مِثلَ ما أوتِىَ قٰرونُ إِنَّهُ لَذو حَظٍّ عَظيمٍ

Saheeh International

So he came out before his people in his adornment. Those who desired the worldly life said, "Oh, would that we had like what was given to Qarun. Indeed, he is one of great fortune."
28:80
وَقالَ الَّذينَ أوتُوا العِلمَ وَيلَكُم ثَوابُ اللَّهِ خَيرٌ لِمَن ءامَنَ وَعَمِلَ صٰلِحًا وَلا يُلَقّىٰها إِلَّا الصّٰبِرونَ

Saheeh International

But those who had been given knowledge said, "Woe to you! The reward of Allah is better for he who believes and does righteousness. And none are granted it except the patient."

And We caused the earth to swallow him and his home. And there was for him no company to aid him other than Allah, nor was he of those who [could] defend themselves.
28:82
وَأَصبَحَ الَّذينَ تَمَنَّوا مَكانَهُ بِالأَمسِ يَقولونَ وَيكَأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَبسُطُ الرِّزقَ لِمَن يَشاءُ مِن عِبادِهِ وَيَقدِرُ ۖ لَولا أَن مَنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَينا لَخَسَفَ بِنا ۖ وَيكَأَنَّهُ لا يُفلِحُ الكٰفِرونَ

Saheeh International

And those who had wished for his position the previous day began to say, "Oh, how Allah extends provision to whom He wills of His servants and restricts it! If not that Allah had conferred favor on us, He would have caused it to swallow us. Oh, how the disbelievers do not succeed!"
28:83
تِلكَ الدّارُ الءاخِرَةُ نَجعَلُها لِلَّذينَ لا يُريدونَ عُلُوًّا فِى الأَرضِ وَلا فَسادًا ۚ وَالعٰقِبَةُ لِلمُتَّقينَ

Saheeh International

That home of the Hereafter We assign to those who do not desire exaltedness upon the earth or corruption. And the [best] outcome is for the righteous.
28:84
مَن جاءَ بِالحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ خَيرٌ مِنها ۖ وَمَن جاءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَلا يُجزَى الَّذينَ عَمِلُوا السَّيِّـٔاتِ إِلّا ما كانوا يَعمَلونَ

Saheeh International

Whoever comes [on the Day of Judgement] with a good deed will have better than it; and whoever comes with an evil deed - then those who did evil deeds will not be recompensed except [as much as] what they used to do.
28:85
إِنَّ الَّذى فَرَضَ عَلَيكَ القُرءانَ لَرادُّكَ إِلىٰ مَعادٍ ۚ قُل رَبّى أَعلَمُ مَن جاءَ بِالهُدىٰ وَمَن هُوَ فى ضَلٰلٍ مُبينٍ

Saheeh International

Indeed, [O Muhammad], He who imposed upon you the Qur'an will take you back to a place of return. Say, "My Lord is most knowing of who brings guidance and who is in clear error."
28:86
وَما كُنتَ تَرجوا أَن يُلقىٰ إِلَيكَ الكِتٰبُ إِلّا رَحمَةً مِن رَبِّكَ ۖ فَلا تَكونَنَّ ظَهيرًا لِلكٰفِرينَ

Saheeh International

And you were not expecting that the Book would be conveyed to you, but [it is] a mercy from your Lord. So do not be an assistant to the disbelievers.

And never let them avert you from the verses of Allah after they have been revealed to you. And invite [people] to your Lord. And never be of those who associate others with Allah.

Saheeh International

And do not invoke with Allah another deity. There is no deity except Him. Everything will be destroyed except His Face. His is the judgement, and to Him you will be returned.
