Ayatul Kursi

 اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ ۚ

Allahu la ilaha illa Huwa, Al-Hayyul-Qayyum

Allah! There is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence.

لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ ۚ

La ta'khudhuhu sinatuw wa la nawm

Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep.

لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ ۗ

Lahu ma fis-samawati wa ma fil-ard

To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth.

مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِندَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ ۚ

Man dhal-ladhi yashfa'u 'indahu illa bi-idhnihi

Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?

يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ۖ

Ya'lamu ma baina aydihim wa ma khalfahum

He knows what is before them and what will be after them.

وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَاءَ ۚ

Wa la yuhituna bi shai'im-min 'ilmihi illa bima shaa'

And they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills.

وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ۖ

Wasi'a kursiyyuhus-samawati wal-ard

His Kursi (throne) extends over the heavens and the earth.

وَلَا يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا ۚ

Wa la ya'uduhu hifzuhuma

And their preservation tires Him not.

وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ

Wahuwal 'Aliyyul 'Azeem

And He is the Most High, the Most Great.
