Arab text: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
الر ۚ تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ وَقُرْآنٍ مُبِينٍ ﴿١﴾ رُبَمَا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ كَانُوا مُسْلِمِينَ ﴿٢﴾ ذَرْهُمْ يَأْكُلُوا وَيَتَمَتَّعُوا وَيُلْهِهِمُ الْأَمَلُ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿٣﴾ وَمَا أَهْلَكْنَا مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا وَلَهَا كِتَابٌ مَعْلُومٌ ﴿٤﴾ مَا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَأْخِرُونَ ﴿٥﴾ وَقَالُوا يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِي نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الذِّكْرُ إِنَّكَ لَمَجْنُونٌ ﴿٦﴾ لَوْ مَا تَأْتِينَا بِالْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ ﴿٧﴾ مَا نُنَزِّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَمَا كَانُوا إِذًا مُنْظَرِينَ ﴿٨﴾ إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ ﴿٩﴾ وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ فِي شِيَعِ الْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿١٠﴾
English, Sahih International:
"Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur'an. (1) Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims. (2) Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know. (3) And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree. (4) No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter. (5) And they say,"O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad. (6) Why do you not bring us the angels, if you should be among the truthful?" (7) We do not send down the angels except with truth; and the disbelievers would not then be reprieved. (8) Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian. (9) And We had certainly sent [messengers] before you, [O Muúammad], among the sects of the former peoples. (10)"
