Quran Chapter 96: Surah Al-'Alaq (The Clot) English Translation
(96:1) Recite in the name of your Lord Who created, (96:2) created man from a clot of congealed blood. (96:3) Recite: and your Lord is Most Generous, (96:4) Who taught by the pen, (96:5) taught man what he did not know. (96:6) Nay, surely man transgresses; (96:7) for he believes himself to be self-sufficient. (96:8) Surely to your Lord is your return. (96:9) Did you see him who forbids (96:10) a servant (of Allah) when he prays? (96:11) Did you consider: what if he is on the Right Way, (96:12) and enjoins piety? (96:13) Did you consider: what if he gives the lie (to the Truth) and turns away (from it)? (96:14) Does he not know that Allah sees everything? (96:15) No indeed; if he does not desist, We shall drag him by the forelock; (96:16) by the lying forelock steeped in sin. (96:17) So let him summon his helpmates; (96:18) We too shall summon the guards of Hell. (96:19) No, not at all. Never obey him. But prostrate yourself and become nigh (to your Lord).
