يس

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ يسٓ

Yaa-Seeen

Ya, Seen.

وَٱلْقُرْءَانِ ٱلْحَكِيمِ

Wal-Qur-aanil-Hakeem

By the wise Qur'an.

إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ

Innaka laminal mursaleen

Indeed you, [O Muhammad], are from among the messengers,

عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍۢ مُّسْتَقِيمٍۢ

'Alaa Siraatim Mustaqeem

On a straight path.

تَنزِيلَ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Tanzeelal 'Azeezir Raheem

[This is] a revelation of the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

لِتُنذِرَ قَوْمًۭا مَّآ أُنذِرَ ءَابَآؤُهُمْ فَهُمْ غَٰفِلُونَ

Litunzira qawmam maaa unzira aabaaa'uhum fahum ghaafiloon

That you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are unaware.

لَقَدْ حَقَّ ٱلْقَوْلُ عَلَىٰٓ أَكْثَرِهِمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Laqad haqqal qawlu 'alaaa aksarihim fahum laa yu'minoon

Already the word has come into effect upon most of them, so they do not believe.

إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا فِىٓ أَعْنَٰقِهِمْ أَغْلَٰلًۭا فَهِىَ إِلَى ٱلْأَذْقَانِ فَهُم مُّقْمَحُونَ

Innaa ja'alnaa feee a'naaqihim aghlaalan fahiya ilal azqaani fahum muqmahoon

Indeed, We have put shackles on their necks, and they are to their chins, so they are with heads [kept] aloft.

وَجَعَلْنَا مِنۢ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّۭا وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّۭا فَأَغْشَيْنَٰهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ

Wa ja'alnaa mim baini aydeehim saddanw-wa min khalfihim saddan fa aghshai naahum fahum laa yubsiroon

And We have put before them a barrier and behind them a barrier and covered them, so they do not see.

وَسَوَآءٌ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَأَنذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ تُنذِرْهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Wa sawaaa'un 'alaihim 'a-anzartahum am lam tunzirhum laa yu'minoon

And it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.
