وَبِالأَسحارِ هُم يَستَغفِرونَ
And at dawn, they would ask for forgiveness.
وَفي أَموالِهِم حَقٌّ لِلسّائِلِ وَالمَحرومِ
And in their wealth was a known right for the asker and the deprived.
وَفِي الأَرضِ آياتٌ لِلموقِنينَ
On earth are signs for the convinced.
وَفي أَنفُسِكُم ۚ أَفَلا تُبصِرونَ
And within yourselves—don’t you see?
وَفِي السَّماءِ رِزقُكُم وَما توعَدونَ
In the heavens is your sustenance, as promised.
فَوَرَبِّ السَّماءِ وَالأَرضِ إِنَّهُ لَحَقٌّ مِثلَ ما أَنَّكُم تَنطِقونَ
By the Lord of heavens and earth: this is as true as your speaking.
هَل أَتاكَ حَديثُ ضَيفِ إِبراهيمَ المُكرَمينَ
Did you hear the story of Abraham’s honored guests?
إِذ دَخَلوا عَلَيهِ فَقالوا سَلامًا ۖ قالَ سَلامٌ قَومٌ مُنكَرونَ
They entered upon him and said, “Peace.” He replied, “Peace, strangers.”
فَراغَ إِلىٰ أَهلِهِ فَجاءَ بِعِجلٍ سَمينٍ
Then he went to his family and brought a fattened calf.
فَقَرَّبَهُ إِلَيهِم قالَ أَلا تَأكُلونَ
He placed it before them and said, “Will you not eat?”
فَأَوجَسَ مِنهُم خيفَةً ۖ قالوا لا تَخَف ۖ وَبَشَّروهُ بِغُلامٍ عَليمٍ
Sensing their discomfort, they reassured him, “Fear not.” And they gave him the good news of a knowledgeable son.
