Surah Al-Jinn Ayah #6 - English Translation

72:5

وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَنْ تَقُولَ الْإِنْسُ وَالْجِنُّ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا

And we had thought that mankind and the jinn would never speak about Allāh a lie.

72:6

وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِنَ الْإِنْسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمْ رَهَقًا

And there were men from mankind who sought refuge in men from the jinn, so they [only] increased them in burden [i.e., sin].

72:7

وَأَنَّهُمْ ظَنُّوا كَمَا ظَنَنْتُمْ أَنْ لَنْ يَبْعَثَ اللَّهُ أَحَدًا

And they had thought, as you thought, that Allāh would never send anyone [as a messenger].

72:8

وَأَنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَاءَ فَوَجَدْنَاهَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِيدًا وَشُهُبًا

And we have sought [to reach] the heaven but found it filled with powerful guards and burning flames.

72:9

وَأَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْهَا مَقَاعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ ۖ فَمَنْ يَسْتَمِعِ الْآنَ يَجِدْ لَهُ شِهَابًا رَصَدًا

And we used to sit therein in positions for hearing, but whoever listens now will find a burning flame lying in wait for him.
