| 55:1 | | The Mercifu |
| 55:2 | | taught the Qur'an |
| 55:3 | | He created man |
| 55:4 | | taught him plain speech |
| 55:5 | | The sun and the moon have their appointed time |
| 55:6 | | The herbs and the trees adore |
| 55:7 | | And the heavens, He raised them and set the balance |
| 55:8 | | that ye should not be outrageous in the balance |
| 55:9 | | But weigh ye aright, and stint not the balance |
| 55:10 | | And the earth He has set it for living creatures |
| 55:11 | | therein are fruits and palms, with sheaths |
| 55:12 | | and grain with chaff and frequent shoots |
| 55:13 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:14 | | He created men of crackling clay like the potters |
| 55:15 | | And He created the ginn from smokeless fire |
| 55:16 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:17 | | The Lord of the two easts and the Lord of the two wests |
| 55:18 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:19 | | He has let loose the two seas that meet together |
| 55:20 | | between them is a barrier they cannot pass |
| 55:21 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:22 | | He brings forth from each pearls both large and small |
| 55:23 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:24 | | His are the ships which rear aloft in the sea like mountains |
| 55:25 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:26 | | Every one upon it is transient |
| 55:27 | | but the face of thy Lord endowed with majesty and honour shall endure |
| 55:28 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:29 | | Of Him whosoever is in the heaven and the earth does beg; every day He is in (some fresh) business |
| 55:30 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:31 | | We shall be at leisure for you, O ye two weighty ones |
| 55:32 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:33 | | O assembly of ginns and mankind! if ye are able to pass through the confines of heaven and earth then pass through them!- ye cannot pass through save by authority |
| 55:34 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:35 | | There shall be sent against you a flash or fire, and molten copper, and ye shall not be helped |
| 55:36 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:37 | | And when the heaven is rent asunder and become rosy red - (melting) like grease |
| 55:38 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:39 | | On that day neither man nor ginn shall be asked about his crime |
| 55:40 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:41 | | The sinners shall be known by their marks, and shall be seized by the forelock and the feet |
| 55:42 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:43 | | 'This is hell, which the sinners did call a lie |
| 55:44 | | they shall circulate between it and water boiling quite! |
| 55:45 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:46 | | But for him who fears the station of his Lord are gardens twain |
| 55:47 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:48 | | Both furnished with branching trees |
| 55:49 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:50 | | In each are flowing springs |
| 55:51 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:52 | | In each are, of every fruit, two kinds |
| 55:53 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:54 | | Reclining on beds the linings of which are of brocade, and the fruit of the two gardens within reach to cull |
| 55:55 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:56 | | Therein are maids of modest glances whom no man nor ginn has deflowered before |
| 55:57 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:58 | | As though they were rubies and pearls |
| 55:59 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:60 | | Is the reward of goodness aught but goodness |
| 55:61 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:62 | | And besides these, are gardens twain |
| 55:63 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:64 | | With dark green foliage |
| 55:65 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:66 | | In each two gushing springs |
| 55:67 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:68 | | In each fruit and palms and pomegranates |
| 55:69 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:70 | | In them maidens best and fairest |
| 55:71 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:72 | | Bright and large-eyed maids kept in their tents |
| 55:73 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:74 | | Whom no man nor ginn has deflowered before them |
| 55:75 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:76 | | Reclining on green cushions and beautiful carpets |
| 55:77 | | Then which of your Lord's bounties will ye twain deny |
| 55:78 | | Blessed be the name of thy Lord possessed of majesty and honour |
