Surat Yā-Sīn - سورة يس

عَلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ

: On a Straight Path (i.e. on Allah's religion of Islamic Monotheism).

تَنزِيلَ الْعَزِيزِ الرَّحِيمِ

: (This is) a Revelation sent down by the AllMighty, the Most Merciful,

لِتُنذِرَ قَوْمًا مَّا أُنذِرَ آبَاؤُهُمْ فَهُمْ غَافِلُونَ

: In order that you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are heedless.

لَقَدْ حَقَّ الْقَوْلُ عَلَىٰ أَكْثَرِهِمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

: Indeed the Word (of punishment) has proved true against most of them, so they will not believe.

إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا فِي أَعْنَاقِهِمْ أَغْلَالًا فَهِيَ إِلَى الْأَذْقَانِ فَهُم مُّقْمَحُونَ

: Verily! We have put on their necks iron collars reaching to chins, so that their heads are forced up.

وَجَعَلْنَا مِن بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّا فَأَغْشَيْنَاهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ

: And We have put a barrier before them, and a barrier behind them, and We have covered them up, so that they cannot see.

وَسَوَاءٌ عَلَيْهِمْ أَأَنذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ تُنذِرْهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

: It is the same to them whether you warn them or you warn them not, they will not believe.
