The Noble Qur'an » Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) - الملك
تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ الملك [1]
Blessed is He in whose hand is dominion, and He is over all things competent - Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [1]
الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْحَيَاةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْغَفُورُ الملك [2]
[He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving - Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [2]
الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ طِبَاقًا ۖ مَّا تَرَىٰ فِي خَلْقِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ مِن تَفَاوُتٍ ۖ فَارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ هَلْ تَرَىٰ مِن فُطُورٍ الملك [3]
[And] who created seven heavens in layers. You do not see in the creation of the Most Merciful any inconsistency. So return [your] vision [to the sky]; do you see any breaks? Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [3]
ثُمَّ ارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ كَرَّتَيْنِ يَنقَلِبْ إِلَيْكَ الْبَصَرُ خَاسِئًا وَهُوَ حَسِيرٌ الملك [4]
Then return [your] vision twice again. [Your] vision will return to you humbled while it is fatigued. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [4]
وَلَقَدْ زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِمَصَابِيحَ وَجَعَلْنَاهَا رُجُومًا لِّلشَّيَاطِينِ ۖ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهُمْ عَذَابَ السَّعِيرِ الملك [5]
And We have certainly beautified the nearest heaven with stars and have made [from] them what is thrown at the devils and have prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [5]
وَلِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِرَبِّهِمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ ۖ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيرُ الملك [6]
And for those who disbelieved in their Lord is the punishment of Hell, and wretched is the destination. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [6]
إِذَا أُلْقُوا فِيهَا سَمِعُوا لَهَا شَهِيقًا وَهِيَ تَفُورُ الملك [7]
When they are thrown into it, they hear from it a [dreadful] inhaling while it boils up. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [7]
تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ الْغَيْظِ ۖ كُلَّمَا أُلْقِيَ فِيهَا فَوْجٌ سَأَلَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَا أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَذِيرٌ الملك [8]
It almost bursts with rage. Every time a company is thrown into it, its keepers ask them, "Did there not come to you a warner?" Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [8]
قَالُوا بَلَىٰ قَدْ جَاءَنَا نَذِيرٌ فَكَذَّبْنَا وَقُلْنَا مَا نَزَّلَ اللَّهُ مِن شَيْءٍ إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلَّا فِي ضَلَالٍ كَبِيرٍ الملك [9]
They will say," Yes, a warner had come to us, but we denied and said, 'Allah has not sent down anything. You are not but in great error.'" Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [9]
وَقَالُوا لَوْ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ أَوْ نَعْقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِي أَصْحَابِ السَّعِيرِ الملك [10]
And they will say, "If only we had been listening or reasoning, we would not be among the companions of the Blaze." Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [10]
فَاعْتَرَفُوا بِذَنبِهِمْ فَسُحْقًا لِّأَصْحَابِ السَّعِيرِ الملك [11]
And they will admit their sin, so [it is] alienation for the companions of the Blaze. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [11]
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُم بِالْغَيْبِ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَأَجْرٌ كَبِيرٌ الملك [12]
Indeed, those who fear their Lord unseen will have forgiveness and great reward. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [12]
وَأَسِرُّوا قَوْلَكُمْ أَوِ اجْهَرُوا بِهِ ۖ إِنَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُورِ الملك [13]
And conceal your speech or publicize it; indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [13]
أَلَا يَعْلَمُ مَنْ خَلَقَ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ الملك [14]
Does He who created not know, while He is the Subtle, the Acquainted? Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [14]
هُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ ذَلُولًا فَامْشُوا فِي مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُوا مِن رِّزْقِهِ ۖ وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ الملك [15]
It is He who made the earth tame for you - so walk among its slopes and eat of His provision - and to Him is the resurrection. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [15]
أَأَمِنتُم مَّن فِي السَّمَاءِ أَن يَخْسِفَ بِكُمُ الْأَرْضَ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَمُورُ الملك [16]
Do you feel secure that He who [holds authority] in the heaven would not cause the earth to swallow you and suddenly it would sway? Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [16]
أَمْ أَمِنتُم مَّن فِي السَّمَاءِ أَن يُرْسِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ حَاصِبًا ۖ فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ كَيْفَ نَذِيرِ الملك [17]
Or do you feel secure that He who [holds authority] in the heaven would not send against you a storm of stones? Then you would know how [severe] was My warning. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [17]
وَلَقَدْ كَذَّبَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ نَكِيرِ الملك [18]
And already had those before them denied, and how [terrible] was My reproach. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [18]
أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا إِلَى الطَّيْرِ فَوْقَهُمْ صَافَّاتٍ وَيَقْبِضْنَ ۚ مَا يُمْسِكُهُنَّ إِلَّا الرَّحْمَٰنُ ۚ إِنَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ بَصِيرٌ الملك [19]
Do they not see the birds above them with wings outspread and [sometimes] folded in? None holds them [aloft] except the Most Merciful. Indeed He is, of all things, Seeing. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [19]
أَمَّنْ هَٰذَا الَّذِي هُوَ جُندٌ لَّكُمْ يَنصُرُكُم مِّن دُونِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ ۚ إِنِ الْكَافِرُونَ إِلَّا فِي غُرُورٍ الملك [20]
Or who is it that could be an army for you to aid you other than the Most Merciful? The disbelievers are not but in delusion. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [20]
أَمَّنْ هَٰذَا الَّذِي يَرْزُقُكُمْ إِنْ أَمْسَكَ رِزْقَهُ ۚ بَل لَّجُّوا فِي عُتُوٍّ وَنُفُورٍ الملك [21]
Or who is it that could provide for you if He withheld His provision? But they have persisted in insolence and aversion. Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [21]
أَفَمَن يَمْشِي مُكِبًّا عَلَىٰ وَجْهِهِ أَهْدَىٰ أَمَّن يَمْشِي سَوِيًّا عَلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ الملك [22]
Then is one who walks fallen on his face better guided or one who walks erect on a straight path? Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [22]
قُلْ هُوَ الَّذِي أَنشَأَكُمْ وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَالْأَبْصَارَ وَالْأَفْئِدَةَ ۖ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ الملك [23]
Say, "It is He who has produced you and made for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful." Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [23]
قُلْ هُوَ الَّذِي ذَرَأَكُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَإِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ الملك [24]
Say, "It is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered." Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [24]
وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَٰذَا الْوَعْدُ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ الملك [25]
And they say, "When is this promise, if you should be truthful?" Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [25]
قُلْ إِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ عِندَ اللَّهِ وَإِنَّمَا أَنَا نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ الملك [26]
Say, "The knowledge is only with Allah, and I am only a clear warner." Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [26]
فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ زُلْفَةً سِيئَتْ وُجُوهُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَقِيلَ هَٰذَا الَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِ تَدَّعُونَ الملك [27]
But when they see it approaching, the faces of those who disbelieve will be distressed, and it will be said, "This is that for which you used to call." Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [27]
قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَهْلَكَنِيَ اللَّهُ وَمَن مَّعِيَ أَوْ رَحِمَنَا فَمَن يُجِيرُ الْكَافِرِينَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ الملك [28]
Say, [O Muhammad], "Have you considered: whether Allah should cause my death and those with me or have mercy upon us, who can protect the disbelievers from a painful punishment?" Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [28]
قُلْ هُوَ الرَّحْمَٰنُ آمَنَّا بِهِ وَعَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْنَا ۖ فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ الملك [29]
Say, "He is the Most Merciful; we have believed in Him, and upon Him we have relied. And you will [come to] know who it is that is in clear error." Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [29]
قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَصْبَحَ مَاؤُكُمْ غَوْرًا فَمَن يَأْتِيكُم بِمَاءٍ مَّعِينٍ الملك [30]
Say, "Have you considered: if your water was to become sunken [into the earth], then who could bring you flowing water?" Al-Mulk ( Dominion ) [30]
