1. ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنزَلَ عَلَىٰ عَبْدِهِ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَلَمْ يَجْعَل لَّهُۥ عِوَجًۭا
2. قَيِّمًۭا لِّيُنذِرَ بَأْسًۭا شَدِيدًۭا مِّن لَّدُنْهُ وَيُبَشِّرَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ أَنَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا حَسَنًۭا
3. مَّٰكِثِينَ فِيهِ أَبَدًۭا
4. وَيُنذِرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوا۟ ٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ وَلَدًۭا
5. مَّا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنْ عِلْمٍۢ وَلَا لِءَابَآئِهِمْ ۚ كَبُرَتْ كَلِمَةًۭ تَخْرُجُ مِنْ أَفْوَٰهِهِمْ ۚ إِن يَقُولُونَ إِلَّا كَذِبًۭا
6. فَلَعَلَّكَ بَٰخِعٌۭ نَّفْسَكَ عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِمْ إِن لَّمْ يُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِهَٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَسَفًا
7. إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا مَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ زِينَةًۭ لَّهَا لِنَبْلُوَهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًۭا
8. وَإِنَّا لَجَٰعِلُونَ مَا عَلَيْهَا صَعِيدًۭا جُرُزًۭا
9. أَمْ حَسِبْتَ أَنَّ أَصْحَٰبَ ٱلْكَهْفِ وَٱلرَّقِيمِ كَانُوا۟ مِنْ ءَايَٰتِنَا عَجَبًۭا
10. إِذْ أَوَى ٱلْفِتْيَةُ إِلَى ٱلْكَهْفِ فَقَالُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحْمَةًۭ وَهَيِّئْ لَنَا مِنْ أَمْرِنَا رَشَدًۭا

Urdu Translation:

1. تمام تعریفیں اللہ کے لیے ہیں، جس نے اپنے بندے پر کتاب نازل فرمائی اور اس میں کوئی ٹیڑھ نہ رکھی۔
2. (یہ) سیدھی (کتاب) ہے تاکہ وہ (اللہ کی طرف سے) سخت عذاب سے ڈرائے اور نیک اعمال کرنے والے مومنین کو خوشخبری دے کہ ان کے لیے اچھا بدلہ ہے۔
3. جس میں وہ ہمیشہ رہیں گے۔
4. اور تاکہ وہ ان لوگوں کو ڈرائے جو کہتے ہیں کہ اللہ نے (کسی کو) بیٹا بنا لیا ہے۔
5. ان کے پاس نہ اس کا کوئی علم ہے اور نہ ان کے باپ دادا کے پاس تھا۔ (یہ) بڑی سخت بات ہے جو وہ اپنے منہ سے نکالتے ہیں، وہ محض جھوٹ ہی بولتے ہیں۔
6. شاید آپ (غم کی شدت سے) اپنی جان دے دیں گے اگر یہ اس بات پر ایمان نہ لائیں۔
7. بیشک ہم نے زمین کو اس کی زینت (خوبصورتی) بنا دیا تاکہ ہم آزمائیں کہ ان میں کون اچھے اعمال کرتا ہے۔
8. اور بیشک جو کچھ زمین پر ہے ہم اسے خشک اور چٹیل میدان بنا دینے والے ہیں۔
9. کیا آپ نے خیال کیا کہ کہف (غار) اور رقیم والے ہماری نشانیوں میں سے کوئی عجیب نشانی تھے؟
10. جب وہ نوجوان غار میں پناہ گزیں ہوئے تو انہوں نے دعا کی: اے ہمارے رب! ہمیں اپنی طرف سے رحمت عطا فرما اور ہمارے معاملے میں ہمارے لیے راہِ راست مہیا فرما۔

(ترجمہ: مولانا جوناگڑھی / تفہیم القرآن سے لیا گیا)

English Translation:

1. All praise is due to Allah, Who has sent down upon His servant the Book and has not made therein any deviance.
2. (He has made it) straight to warn of severe punishment from Him and to give good tidings to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have a good reward.
3. In which they will remain forever.
4. And to warn those who say, “Allah has taken a son.”
5. They have no knowledge of it, nor do their forefathers. Grave is the word that comes out of their mouths; they speak not except a lie.
6. Then perhaps you would kill yourself through grief over them if they do not believe in this message.
7. Indeed, We have made that which is on the earth an adornment for it, so that We may test them as to which of them is best in deeds.
8. And indeed, We will make whatever is upon it (into) a barren ground.
9. Or have you thought that the companions of the cave and the inscription were, among Our signs, a wonder?
10. (Mention) when the youths took refuge in the cave and said, “Our Lord, grant us from Yourself mercy and provide for us right guidance in our affair.”

(Translation: Sahih International)
