Surah Introduction

This Meccan sûrah emphasizes the divine nature and purpose of the Quran. The Arab pagans are reminded of the fate of earlier disbelievers and condemned for following Satan, denying the Resurrection, discrediting the Quran, and rejecting the Prophet ( ﷺ ) as 'a poet.' Similar to the next sûrah, some examples of Allah's wonders of creation are cited to prove His ability to bring the dead back to life.


Translation of Verse 1-12
1. In the Name of Allah-the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.

1. Yâ-Sĩn .

2. By the Quran, rich in wisdom!

3. You ˹O Prophet˺ are truly one of the messengers

4. upon the Straight Path.

5. ˹This is˺ a revelation from the Almighty, Most Merciful,

6. so that you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, and so are heedless.

7. The decree ˹of torment˺ has already been justified against most of them, for they will never believe.

8. ˹It is as if˺ We have put shackles around their necks up to their chins, so their heads are forced up,

9. and have placed a barrier before them and a barrier behind them and covered them ˹all˺ up, so they fail to see ˹the truth˺.

10. It is the same whether you warn them or not-they will never believe.

11. You can only warn those who follow the Reminder 900 and are in awe of the Most Compassionate without seeing Him. 901 So give them good news of forgiveness and an honourable reward.

12. It is certainly We Who resurrect the dead, and write what they send forth and what they leave behind. Everything is listed by Us in a perfect Record. 902


Commentary

900. The Reminder is another name for the Quran.

901. See footnote for 35:18.
