تَنزِيلُ الْكِتَٰبِ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهِ مِن رَّبِّ الْعَٰلَمِينَ[2]

Tanzeelu alkitabi la rayba feehi min rabbi alAAalameena

La Révélation du Livre, nul doute là-dessus, émane du Seigneur de l'univers.

(This is) the Revelation of the Book in which there is no doubt,- from the Lord of the Worlds.


أَمْ يَقُولُونَ افْتَرَىٰهُ ۚ بَلْ هُوَ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ لِتُنذِرَ قَوْمًا مَّآ أَتَىٰهُم مِّن نَّذِيرٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ[3]

Am yaqooloona iftarahu bal huwa alhaqqu min rabbika litunthira qawman ma atahum min natheerin min qablika laAAallahum yahtadoona

Diront-ils qu'il (Muhammad) l'a inventé? Ceci est, au contraire, la vérité venant de ton Seigneur pour que tu avertisses un peuple à qui nul avertisseur avant toi n'est venu, afin qu'ils se guident.

Or do they say, "He has forged it"? Nay, it is the Truth from thy Lord, that thou mayest admonish a people to whom no warner has come before thee: in order that they may receive guidance.


اللَّهُ الَّذِى خَلَقَ السَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ ۖ مَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِهِۦ مِن وَلِىٍّ وَلَا شَفِيعٍ ۚ أَفَلَا تَتَذَكَّرُونَ[4]

Allahu allathee khalaqa alssamawati waalarda wama baynahuma fee sittati ayyamin thumma istawa AAala alAAarshi ma lakum min doonihi min waliyyin wala shafeeAAin afala tatathakkaroona

Allah qui a créé en six jours les cieux et la terre, et ce qui est entre eux. Ensuite Il S'est établi «Istawâ» sur le Trône. Vous n'avez, en dehors de Lui, ni allié ni intercesseur. Ne vous rappelez-vous donc pas?

It is Allah Who has created the heavens and the earth, and all between them, in six Days, and is firmly established on the Throne (of Authority): ye have none, besides Him, to protect or intercede (for you): will ye not then receive admonition?


يُدَبِّرُ الْأَمْرَ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ يَعْرُجُ إِلَيْهِ فِى يَوْمٍ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهُۥٓ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ مِّمَّا تَعُدُّونَ[5]

Yudabbiru alamra mina alssamai ila alardi thumma yaAAruju ilayhi fee yawmin kana miqdaruhu alfa sanatin mimma taAAuddoona

Du ciel à la terre, Il administre l'affaire, laquelle ensuite monte vers Lui en un jour équivalent à mille ans de votre calcul.

He rules (all) affairs from the heavens to the earth: in the end will (all affairs) go up to Him, on a Day, the space whereof will be (as) a thousand years of your reckoning.


ذَٰلِكَ عَٰلِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَٰدَةِ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ[6]

Thalika AAalimu alghaybi waalshshahadati alAAazeezu alrraheemu

C'est Lui le Connaisseur [des mondes] inconnus et visibles, le Puissant, le Miséricordieux,

Such is He, the Knower of all things, hidden and open, the Exalted (in power), the Merciful;-


الَّذِىٓ أَحْسَنَ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ ۖ وَبَدَأَ خَلْقَ الْإِنسَٰنِ مِن طِينٍ[7]

Allathee ahsana kulla shayin khalaqahu wabadaa khalqa alinsani min teenin

qui a bien fait tout ce qu'Il a créé. Et Il a commencé la création de l'homme à partir de l'argile,

He Who has made everything which He has created most good: He began the creation of man with (nothing more than) clay,


ثُمَّ جَعَلَ نَسْلَهُۥ مِن سُلَٰلَةٍ مِّن مَّآءٍ مَّهِينٍ[8]

Thumma jaAAala naslahu min sulalatin min main maheenin

puis Il tira sa descendance d'une goutte d'eau vile [le sperme];

And made his progeny from a quintessence of the nature of a fluid despised:


ثُمَّ سَوَّىٰهُ وَنَفَخَ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِهِۦ ۖ وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَالْأَبْصَٰرَ وَالْأَفْـِٔدَةَ ۚ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ[9]

Thumma sawwahu wanafakha feehi min roohihi wajaAAala lakumu alssamAAa waalabsara waalafidata qaleelan ma tashkuroona

puis Il lui donna sa forme parfaite et lui insuffla de Son Esprit. Et Il vous a assigné l'ouïe, les yeux et le cœur. Que vous êtes peu reconnaissants!

But He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him something of His spirit. And He gave you (the faculties of) hearing and sight and feeling (and understanding): little thanks do ye give!


وَقَالُوٓا۟ أَءِذَا ضَلَلْنَا فِى الْأَرْضِ أَءِنَّا لَفِى خَلْقٍ جَدِيدٍۭ ۚ بَلْ هُم بِلِقَآءِ رَبِّهِمْ كَٰفِرُونَ[10]

Waqaloo aitha dalalna fee alardi ainna lafee khalqin jadeedin bal hum biliqai rabbihim kafiroona

Et ils disent: «Quand nous serons perdus dans la terre [sous forme de poussière], redeviendrons-nous une création nouvelle?» En outre, ils ne croient pas en la rencontre avec leur Seigneur.

And they say: "What! when we lie, hidden and lost, in the earth, shall we indeed be in a Creation renewed? Nay, they deny the Meeting with their Lord.


۞ قُلْ يَتَوَفَّىٰكُم مَّلَكُ الْمَوْتِ الَّذِى وُكِّلَ بِكُمْ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمْ تُرْجَعُونَ[11]

Qul yatawaffakum malaku almawti allathee wukkila bikum thumma ila rabbikum turjaAAoona

Dis: «L'Ange de la mort qui est chargé de vous, vous fera mourir. Ensuite, vous serez ramenés vers Votre Seigneur».

Say: "The Angel of Death, put in charge of you, will (duly) take your souls: then shall ye be brought back to your Lord."


وَلَوْ تَرَىٰٓ إِذِ الْمُجْرِمُونَ نَاكِسُوا۟ رُءُوسِهِمْ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ رَبَّنَآ أَبْصَرْنَا وَسَمِعْنَا فَارْجِعْنَا نَعْمَلْ صَٰلِحًا إِنَّا مُوقِنُونَ[12]

Walaw tara ithi almujrimoona nakisoo ruoosihim AAinda rabbihim rabbana absarna wasamiAAna faarjiAAna naAAmal salihan inna mooqinoona

Si tu voyais alors les criminels [comparaître], têtes basses devant leur Seigneur! «Notre Seigneur, Nous avons vu et entendu, renvoie-nous donc afin que nous puissions faire du bien; nous croyons [maintenant] avec certitude».

If only thou couldst see when the guilty ones will bend low their heads before their Lord, (saying:) "Our Lord! We have seen and we have heard: Now then send us back (to the world): we will work righteousness: for we do indeed (now) believe."


وَلَوْ شِئْنَا لَءَاتَيْنَا كُلَّ نَفْسٍ هُدَىٰهَا وَلَٰكِنْ حَقَّ الْقَوْلُ مِنِّى لَأَمْلَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ[13]

Walaw shina laatayna kulla nafsin hudaha walakin haqqa alqawlu minnee laamlaanna jahannama mina aljinnati waalnnasi ajmaAAeena

«Si Nous voulions, Nous apporterions à chaque âme sa guidée. Mais la parole venant de Moi doit être réalisée: «J'emplirai l'Enfer de djinns et d'hommes réunis».

If We had so willed, We could certainly have brought every soul its true guidance: but the Word from Me will come true, "I will fill Hell with Jinns and men all together."


فَذُوقُوا۟ بِمَا نَسِيتُمْ لِقَآءَ يَوْمِكُمْ هَٰذَآ إِنَّا نَسِينَٰكُمْ ۖ وَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابَ الْخُلْدِ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ[14]

Fathooqoo bima naseetum liqaa yawmikum hatha inna naseenakum wathooqoo AAathaba alkhuldi bima kuntum taAAmaloona

«Goûtez donc! Pour avoir oublié la rencontre de votre jour que voici. Nous aussi Nous vous avons oubliés. Goûtez au châtiment éternel pour ce que vous faisiez».

"Taste ye then - for ye forgot the Meeting of this Day of yours, and We too will forget you - taste ye the Penalty of Eternity for your (evil) deeds!"


إِنَّمَا يُؤْمِنُ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا الَّذِينَ إِذَا ذُكِّرُوا۟ بِهَا خَرُّوا۟ سُجَّدًا وَسَبَّحُوا۟ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّهِمْ وَهُمْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ ۩[15]

Innama yuminu biayatina allatheena itha thukkiroo biha kharroo sujjadan wasabbahoo bihamdi rabbihim wahum la yastakbiroona

Seuls croient en Nos versets ceux qui, lorsqu'on les leur rappelle, tombent prosternés et, par des louanges à leur Seigneur, célèbrent Sa gloire et ne s'enflent pas d'orgueil.

Only those believe in Our Signs, who, when they are recited to them, fall down in prostration, and celebrate the praises of their Lord, nor are they (ever) puffed up with pride.


تَتَجَافَىٰ جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَٰهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ[16]

Tatajafa junoobuhum AAani almadajiAAi yadAAoona rabbahum khawfan watamaAAan wamimma razaqnahum yunfiqoona

Ils s'arrachent de leurs lits pour invoquer leur Seigneur, par crainte et espoir; et ils font largesse de ce que Nous leur attribuons.

Their limbs do forsake their beds of sleep, the while they call on their Lord, in Fear and Hope: and they spend (in charity) out of the sustenance which We have bestowed on them.


فَلَا تَعْلَمُ نَفْسٌ مَّآ أُخْفِىَ لَهُم مِّن قُرَّةِ أَعْيُنٍ جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ[17]

Fala taAAlamu nafsun ma okhfiya lahum min qurrati aAAyunin jazaan bima kanoo yaAAmaloona

Aucun être ne sait ce qu'on a réservé pour eux comme réjouissance pour les yeux, en récompense de ce qu'ils œuvraient!

Now no person knows what delights of the eye are kept hidden (in reserve) for them - as a reward for their (good) deeds.


أَفَمَن كَانَ مُؤْمِنًا كَمَن كَانَ فَاسِقًا ۚ لَّا يَسْتَوُۥنَ[18]

Afaman kana muminan kaman kana fasiqan la yastawoona

Celui qui est croyant est-il comparable au pervers? (Non), ils ne sont point égaux.

Is then the man who believes no better than the man who is rebellious and wicked? Not equal are they.


أَمَّا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ الصَّٰلِحَٰتِ فَلَهُمْ جَنَّٰتُ الْمَأْوَىٰ نُزُلًۢا بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ[19]

Amma allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati falahum jannatu almawa nuzulan bima kanoo yaAAmaloona

Ceux qui croient et accomplissent les bonnes œuvres, auront leur résidence dans les Jardins du Refuge, en récompense de ce qu'ils œuvraient.

For those who believe and do righteous deeds are Gardens as hospitable homes, for their (good) deeds.


وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ فَسَقُوا۟ فَمَأْوَىٰهُمُ النَّارُ ۖ كُلَّمَآ أَرَادُوٓا۟ أَن يَخْرُجُوا۟ مِنْهَآ أُعِيدُوا۟ فِيهَا وَقِيلَ لَهُمْ ذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابَ النَّارِ الَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ[20]

Waamma allatheena fasaqoo famawahumu alnnaru kullama aradoo an yakhrujoo minha oAAeedoo feeha waqeela lahum thooqoo AAathaba alnnari allathee kuntum bihi tukaththiboona

Et quant à ceux qui auront été pervers, leur refuge sera le Feu: toutes les fois qu'ils voudront en sortir, ils y seront ramenés, et on leur dira: «Goûtez au châtiment du Feu auquel vous refusiez de croire».

As to those who are rebellious and wicked, their abode will be the Fire: every time they wish to get away therefrom, they will be forced thereinto, and it will be said to them: "Taste ye the Penalty of the Fire, the which ye were wont to reject as false."


وَلَنُذِيقَنَّهُم مِّنَ الْعَذَابِ الْأَدْنَىٰ دُونَ الْعَذَابِ الْأَكْبَرِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ[21]

Walanutheeqannahum mina alAAathabi aladna doona alAAathabi alakbari laAAallahum yarjiAAoona

Nous leur ferons certainement goûter au châtiment ici-bas, avant le grand châtiment afin qu'ils retournent (vers le chemin droit)!

And indeed We will make them taste of the Penalty of this (life) prior to the supreme Penalty, in order that they may (repent and) return.


وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّن ذُكِّرَ بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِۦ ثُمَّ أَعْرَضَ عَنْهَآ ۚ إِنَّا مِنَ الْمُجْرِمِينَ مُنتَقِمُونَ[22]

Waman athlamu mimman thukkira biayati rabbihi thumma aAArada AAanha inna mina almujrimeena muntaqimoona

Qui est plus injuste que celui à qui les versets d'Allah sont rappelés et qui ensuite s'en détourne? Nous nous vengerons certes des criminels.

And who does more wrong than one to whom are recited the Signs of his Lord, and who then turns away therefrom? Verily from those who transgress We shall exact (due) Retribution.


وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَٰبَ فَلَا تَكُن فِى مِرْيَةٍ مِّن لِّقَآئِهِۦ ۖ وَجَعَلْنَٰهُ هُدًى لِّبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ[23]

Walaqad atayna moosa alkitaba fala takun fee miryatin min liqaihi wajaAAalnahu hudan libanee israeela

Nous avons effectivement donné à Moïse le Livre - ne sois donc pas en doute sur ta rencontre avec lui -, et l'avons assigné comme guide aux Enfants d'Israël.

We did indeed aforetime give the Book to Moses: be not then in doubt of its reaching (thee): and We made it a guide to the Children of Israel.


وَجَعَلْنَا مِنْهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَهْدُونَ بِأَمْرِنَا لَمَّا صَبَرُوا۟ ۖ وَكَانُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا يُوقِنُونَ[24]

WajaAAalna minhum aimmatan yahdoona biamrina lamma sabaroo wakanoo biayatina yooqinoona

Et Nous avons désigné parmi eux des dirigeants qui guidaient (les gens) par Notre ordre aussi longtemps qu'ils enduraient et croyaient fermement en Nos versets.

And We appointed, from among them, leaders, giving guidance under Our command, so long as they persevered with patience and continued to have faith in Our Signs.


إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ يَفْصِلُ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَٰمَةِ فِيمَا كَانُوا۟ فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ[25]

Inna rabbaka huwa yafsilu baynahum yawma alqiyamati feema kanoo feehi yakhtalifoona

Ton Seigneur, c'est Lui qui décidera entre eux, au Jour de la Résurrection, de ce sur quoi ils divergeaient.

Verily thy Lord will judge between them on the Day of Judgment, in the matters wherein they differ (among themselves)


أَوَلَمْ يَهْدِ لَهُمْ كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّنَ الْقُرُونِ يَمْشُونَ فِى مَسَٰكِنِهِمْ ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍ ۖ أَفَلَا يَسْمَعُونَ[26]

Awalam yahdi lahum kam ahlakna min qablihim mina alqurooni yamshoona fee masakinihim inna fee thalika laayatin afala yasmaAAoona

N'est-ce pas pour eux une indication le fait qu'avant eux, Nous ayons fait périr tant de générations dans les maisons desquelles ils marchent? Il y a en cela des preuves! N'écouteront-ils donc pas?

Does it not teach them a lesson, how many generations We destroyed before them, in whose dwellings they (now) go to and fro? Verily in that are Signs: Do they not then listen?


أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ أَنَّا نَسُوقُ الْمَآءَ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ الْجُرُزِ فَنُخْرِجُ بِهِۦ زَرْعًا تَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ أَنْعَٰمُهُمْ وَأَنفُسُهُمْ ۖ أَفَلَا يُبْصِرُونَ[27]

Awalam yaraw anna nasooqu almaa ila alardi aljuruzi fanukhriju bihi zarAAan takulu minhu anAAamuhum waanfusuhum afala yubsiroona

N'ont-ils pas vu que Nous poussons l'eau vers un sol aride, qu'ensuite Nous en faisons sortir une culture que consomment leurs bestiaux et eux-mêmes? Ne voient-ils donc pas,?

And do they not see that We do drive rain to parched soil (bare of herbage), and produce therewith crops, providing food for their cattle and themselves? Have they not the vision?


وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَٰذَا الْفَتْحُ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ[28]

Wayaqooloona mata hatha alfathu in kuntum sadiqeena

Et ils disent: «A quand cette victoire, si vous êtes véridiques?»

They say: "When will this decision be, if ye are telling the truth?"


قُلْ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ لَا يَنفَعُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِيمَٰنُهُمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُنظَرُونَ[29]

Qul yawma alfathi la yanfaAAu allatheena kafaroo eemanuhum wala hum yuntharoona

Dis: «Le jour de la Victoire, il sera inutile aux infidèles de croire! Et aucun délai ne leur sera donné».

Say: "On the Day of Decision, no profit will it be to Unbelievers if they (then) believe! nor will they be granted a respite."


فَأَعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ وَانتَظِرْ إِنَّهُم مُّنتَظِرُونَ[30]

FaaAArid AAanhum waintathir innahum muntathiroona

Eloigne-toi d'eux et attends. Eux aussi demeurent dans l'attente.

So turn away from them, and wait: they too are waiting.
