[1] Read in the name of your Lord Who created.
[2] He created man from a clot.
[3] Read and your Lord is Most Honorable,
[4] Who taught (to write) with the pen
[5] Taught man what he knew not.
[6] Nay! man is most surely inordinate,
[7] Because he sees himself free from want.
[8] Surely to your Lord is the return.
[9] Have you seen him who forbids
[10] A servant when he prays?
[11] Have you considered if he were on the right way,
[12] Or enjoined guarding (against evil)?
[13] Have you considered if he gives the lie to the truth and turns (his) back?
[14] Does he not know that Allah does see?
[15] Nay! if he desist not, We would certainly smite his forehead,
[16] A lying, sinful forehead.
[17] Then let him summon his council,
[18] We too would summon the braves of the army.
[19] Nay! obey him not, and make obeisance and draw nigh (to Allah).
