(96:1) Recite in the name of your Lord who created - (96:2) Created man from a clinging substance. (96:3) Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous - (96:4) Who taught by the pen - (96:5) Taught man that which he knew not. (96:6) No! [But] indeed, man transgresses (96:7) Because he sees himself self-sufficient. (96:8) Indeed, to your Lord is the return. (96:9) Have you seen the one who forbids (96:10) A servant when he prays? (96:11) Have you seen if he is upon guidance (96:12) Or enjoins righteousness? (96:13) Have you seen if he denies and turns away - (96:14) Does he not know that Allah sees? (96:15) No! If he does not desist, We will surely drag him by the forelock - (96:16) A lying, sinning forelock. (96:17) Then let him call his associates; (96:18) We will call the angels of Hell. (96:19) No! Do not obey him. But prostrate and draw near [to Allah].
