Read surah Al-Qalam

۞ نۤۚ وَٱلۡقَلَمِ وَمَا یَسۡطُرُونَ 

Nun. CONSIDER the pen, and all that they write [therewith]!

مَاۤ أَنتَ بِنِعۡمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجۡنُونࣲ 

Thou art not, by thy Sustainer's grace, a madman!

وَإِنَّ لَكَ لَأَجۡرًا غَیۡرَ مَمۡنُونࣲ 

And, verily, thine shall be a reward neverending –

وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلَىٰ خُلُقٍ عَظِیمࣲ 

for, behold, thou keepest indeed to a sublime way of life;

فَسَتُبۡصِرُ وَیُبۡصِرُونَ 

and [one day] thou shalt see, and they [who now deride thee] shall see,

بِأَییِّكُمُ ٱلۡمَفۡتُونُ 

which of you was bereft of reason.

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِیلِهِۦ وَهُوَ أَعۡلَمُ بِٱلۡمُهۡتَدِینَ 

Verily, thy Sustainer alone is fully aware as to who has strayed from His path, Just as He alone is fully aware of those who have found the right way.

فَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ 

Hence, defer not to [the likes and dislikes of] those who give the lie to the truth:

وَدُّوا۟ لَوۡ تُدۡهِنُ فَیُدۡهِنُونَ 

they would like thee to be soft [with them], so that they might be soft [with thee].

وَلَا تُطِعۡ كُلَّ حَلَّافࣲ مَّهِینٍ 

Furthermore, defer not to the contemptible swearer of oaths,
