Surah “The Clot, Read”

Proclaim thou in the name of thy Lord Who created

Created man from a clot of blood

Proclaim ! and thy Lord is the Most Bounteous

Who taught by the pen

Taught man what he knew not

Nay ! man, indeed, transgresses

Because he thinks himself to be independent

Surely, unto thy Lord is the return

Has thou seen him who forbid

A servant of Ours when he prays

Tell me if Our servant follows the guidance

Or enjoins righteousness

And tell me if the forbidder rejects the Truth and turns his back on it. How shall he fare

Does he not know that ALLAH sees all

Nay, if he desist not, WE will assuredly, seize and drag him by the forelock

A forelock, lying, sinful

Then let him call his associates

WE, too, will call Our angels of punishment

Nay, yield thou not to him, but prostrate thyself and draw near to ALLAH
