In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

Tâ¬Sîn. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'ân, and none but Allâh (Alone) knows their meanings]. These are the Verses of the Qur'ân, and (it is) a Book (that makes things) clear; (1) A guide (to the Right Path); and glad tidings for the believers [who believe in the Oneness of Allâh (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism)]. (2) Those who perform As¬Salât (Iqâmat¬as¬Salât) and give Zakât and they believe with certainty in the Hereafter (resurrection, recompense of their good and bad deeds, Paradise and Hell). (3) Verily, those who believe not in the Hereafter, We have made their deeds fair-seeming to them, so that they wander about blindly (4) They are those for whom there will be an evil torment (in this world). And in the Hereafter they will be the greatest losers. (5) And verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) are being taught the Qur'ân from the One, All-Wise, All-Knowing. (6) (Remember) when Mûsa (Moses) said to his household: "Verily! I have seen a fire, I will bring you from there some information, or I will bring you a burning brand, that you may warm yourselves." (7) But when he came to it, he was called: "Blessed is whosoever is in the fire, and whosoever is round about it! And glorified is Allâh, the Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists). (8) "O Mûsa (Moses)! Verily! It is I, Allâh, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. (9) "And throw down your stick!" But when he saw it moving as if it were a snake, he turned in flight, and did not look back. (It was said): "O Mûsa (Moses)! Fear not, verily! the Messengers fear not in front of Me. (10) "Except him who has done wrong and afterwards has changed evil for good, then surely, I am Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (11) "And put your hand into your bosom, it will come forth white without hurt. (These are) among the nine signs (you will take) to Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his people, verily they are a people who are the Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). (12) But when Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) came to them, clear to see, they said: "This is a manifest magic." (13)
