إِنَّ اُ۬لذِے فِے ثُمَّ عَلَي أَلَا لَهُ

Lo! your Lord is Allah Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days, then mounted He the Throne. He covereth the night with the day, which is in haste to follow it, and hath made the sun and the moon and the stars subservient by His command. His verily is all creation and commandment. Blessed be Allah, the Lord of the Worlds Pickthall

The āya above is Warsh ʿan Nāfiʿ, the rasm of the printed edition. The root behind each underlined word comes from a Ḥafṣ ʿan ʿĀṣim corpus, realigned to this Warsh text word by word; 125 of the 6,236 āyāt differ in word count between the two riwāyāt, and those were aligned rather than assumed. A word carries no underline where the corpus supplies no root. Lexicon entries are a reading aid and carry no page reference; the edition does not cite them. Page references elsewhere on this site follow the ten-volume Tunis 2022 printing this site was transcribed from; published scholarship on this text cites the six-volume Tunis 2010 printing, whose pagination is different.

(بكتب قرآن ( مَصَّلْنَهُ) بيناه بالإخبار والوعد والوعيد ( عَلَىٰ عِلْمٍ) عالمين بما فُصّل نبه (هدىً وَرَحْمَةَ لِقَوْمٍ يُومِنُونَ هَلْ يَنظُرُونَ) ما ينتظرون (إِلاَّ تَاوِيلَةٌ )) عاقبة ما فيه (وَيَوْمَ تَتِ تاوِيلَهَ ) هو يوم القيامة (يَقُولَ أَلذِينَ تَسَوهُ صٍ قَبْلَ قَدْ جَاآءَتْ رَسْلَ رَبّنَا بِالْحَقِ بَهَلِ أَتَا س شَبَعَاةَ يَشْبَعُوا لَتَآ كما للمسلمين {أوْ تَرَدّ) أو هل نرد إِلى الدنيا (يَتَعْمَلَ غَيْرَ ألِي كَنَّا تَعْمَلْ) نوحد اللّٰه ونترك الشرك فيقال لهم (قَدْ خَسرُواْ أَنْسَهُمْ) صاروا إلى الهلاك (وَصَلَّ) ذهب (عَنْهُم مَا كَانُواْ يَعْتَرُونُ) من دعوى الشرك إِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ اللَّهُ ألذِى خَلَقَ ألسَّمَوَتِ وَالأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامِ) اللّه تبارك وتعالى خلق الخلق في أوقات ستة، ستة أيام هذا قبل أيام الدنيا، لأنه لم يكن شمس ولا قمر، ولكن قدر أنه خلق السماوات والأرض وما فيهما في ستة أيام (ثُمَّ إسْتَوى عَلَى الْعَرْشِ) والحكمة في ذلك - هو إنما يقول كن فيكون
