In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
- Ya Sin.
- By the Qur'an full of Wisdom
- Thou art indeed one of the apostles.
- On a Straight Way.
- It is a Revelation sent down by (Him) the Exalted in Might Most Merciful.
- In order that thou mayest admonish a people whose fathers had received no admonition and who therefore remain heedless (of the Signs of Allah).
- The Word is proved true against the greater part of them; for they do not believe.
- We have put yokes round their necks right up to their chins so that their heads are forced up (and they cannot see).
- And We have put a bar in front of them and a bar behind them and further We have covered them up; so that they cannot see.
- The same is it to them whether thou admonish them or thou do not admonish them: they will not believe.
- Thou canst but admonish: such a one as follows the Message and fears the (Lord) Most Gracious unseen: give such a one therefore good tidings of Forgiveness and a Reward most generous.
- Verily We shall give life to the dead and We record that which they sent before and that which they leave behind and of all things have We taken account in a clear Book (of evidence).
- Set forth to them by way of a parable the (story of) the Companions of the City. Behold there came apostles to it.
- When We (first) sent to them two apostles they rejected them: but We strengthened them with a third: they said "Truly we have been sent on a mission to you."
- The (people) said: "Ye are only men like ourselves; and (Allah) Most Gracious sends no sort of revelation: Ye do nothing but lie."
- They said: "Our Lord doth know that we have been sent on a mission to you:
- "And Our duty is only to proclaim the clear Message."
- The (people) said: "for us We augur an evil omen from you: if ye desist not we will certainly stone you and a grievous punishment indeed will be inflicted on you by us."
- They said: "Your evil omens are with yourselves: (deem ye this an evil omen) if ye are admonished? Nay but ye are a people transgressing all bounds!"
- Then there came running from the farthest part of the City a man saying "O my people! obey the apostles:
- "Obey those who ask no reward of you (for themselves) and who have themselves received Guidance.
