Surah An-Nahl — The Bee

Known as 'The Bee', surveys the natural world as evidence of a single creator and provider.

بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمٰنِ الرَّحيمِ أَتىٰ أَمرُ اللَّهِ فَلا تَستَعجِلوهُ سُبحٰنَهُ وَتَعٰلىٰ عَمّا يُشرِكونَ

Ata amru Allahi fala tastaAAjiloohu subhanahu wataAAala AAamma yushrikoona

1. The commandment of Allah will come to pass, so seek not ye to hasten it. Glorified and Exalted be He above all that they associate (with Him)

يُنَزِّلُ المَلٰئِكَةَ بِالرّوحِ مِن أَمرِهِ عَلىٰ مَن يَشاءُ مِن عِبادِهِ أَن أَنذِروا أَنَّهُ لا إِلٰهَ إِلّا أَنا۠ فَاتَّقونِ

Yunazzilu almalaikata bialrroohi min amrihi AAala man yashao min AAibadihi an anthiroo annahu la ilaha illa ana faittaqooni

2. He sendeth down the angels with the Spirit of His command unto whom He will of His bondmen, (saying): Warn mankind that there is no Allah save Me, so keep your duty unto Me

خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضَ بِالحَقِّ تَعٰلىٰ عَمّا يُشرِكونَ

Khalaqa alssamawati waalarda bialhaqqi taAAala AAamma yushrikoona

3. He hath created the heavens and the earth with truth. High be He Exalted above all that they associate (with Him)
