  1. Ayah 17

    لَوْ أَرَدْنَا أَن نَّتَّخِذَ لَهْوًا لَّاتَّخَذْنَاهُ مِن لَّدُنَّا إِن كُنَّا فَاعِلِينَ

    Si Nous avions voulu prendre une distraction, Nous l'aurions prise de Nous-mêmes, si vraiment Nous avions voulu le faire.

  2. Ayah 18

    بَلْ نَقْذِفُ بِالْحَقِّ عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ فَيَدْمَغُهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ زَاهِقٌ ۚ وَلَكُمُ الْوَيْلُ مِمَّا تَصِفُونَ

    Bien au contraire, Nous lançons contre le faux la vérité qui le subjugue, et le voilà qui disparaît. Et malheur à vous pour ce que vous attribuez [injustement à Allah].

  3. Ayah 19

    وَلَهُ مَن فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ وَمَنْ عِندَهُ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهِ وَلَا يَسْتَحْسِرُونَ

    A Lui seul appartiennent tous ceux qui sont dans les cieux et sur la terre. Ceux qui sont auprès de Lui [les Anges] ne se considèrent point trop grands pour L'adorer et ne s'en lassent pas.

  4. Ayah 20

    يُسَبِّحُونَ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لَا يَفْتُرُونَ

    Ils exaltent Sa Gloire nuit et jour et ne s'interrompent point.

  5. Ayah 21

    أَمِ اتَّخَذُوا آلِهَةً مِّنَ الْأَرْضِ هُمْ يُنشِرُونَ

    Ont-ils pris des divinités qui peuvent ressusciter (les morts) de la terre?

  6. Ayah 22

    لَوْ كَانَ فِيهِمَا آلِهَةٌ إِلَّا اللَّهُ لَفَسَدَتَا ۚ فَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ

    S'il y avait dans le ciel et la terre des divinités autres qu'Allah, tous deux seraient certes dans le désordre. Gloire, donc à Allah, Seigneur du Trône; Il est au-dessus de ce qu'ils Lui attribuent!

  7. Ayah 23

    لَا يُسْأَلُ عَمَّا يَفْعَلُ وَهُمْ يُسْأَلُونَ

    Il n'est pas interrogé sur ce qu'Il fait, mais ce sont eux qui devront rendre compte [de leurs actes].

Meccan Surahs

The Meccan Surahs are the earliest revelations sent down to the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم). They were revealed in Mecca, hence their name. These revelations form the foundation of the Islamic faith and contain guidance for Muslims on how to live their lives. The Meccan Surahs are also notable for their poetic beauty and lyrical prose.

Medinan Surahs

The Medinan Surahs are the later Surahs that, according to Islamic tradition, were revealed in Medina after the Prophet Muhammad's (صلى الله عليه وسلم) hijra from Mecca. They were revealed by Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) when the Muslim community was larger and more developed, as opposed to their minority position in Mecca.
