وَنَبِّئْهُمْ عَنْ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
51. And inform them about the guests of Abraham,
إِذْ دَخَلُوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا سَلَامًا قَالَ إِنَّا مِنْكُمْ وَجِلُونَ
52. When they entered upon him and said, "Peace." [Abraham] said, "Indeed, we are fearful of you."
قَالُوا لَا تَوْجَلْ إِنَّا نُبَشِّرُكَ بِغُلَامٍ عَلِيمٍ
53. [The angels] said, "Fear not. Indeed, we give you good tidings of a learned boy."
قَالَ أَبَشَّرْتُمُونِي عَلَىٰ أَنْ مَسَّنِيَ الْكِبَرُ فَبِمَ تُبَشِّرُونَ
54. He said, "Have you given me good tidings although old age has come upon me? Then of what [wonder] do you inform?"
قَالُوا بَشَّرْنَاكَ بِالْحَقِّ فَلَا تَكُنْ مِنَ الْقَانِطِينَ
55. They said, "We have given you good tidings in truth, so do not be of the despairing."
قَالَ وَمَنْ يَقْنَطُ مِنْ رَحْمَةِ رَبِّهِ إِلَّا الضَّالُّونَ
56. He said, "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord except for those astray?"
قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ
57. [Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"
قَالُوا إِنَّا أُرْسِلْنَا إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُجْرِمِينَ
58. They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals,
إِلَّا آلَ لُوطٍ إِنَّا لَمُنَجُّوهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
59. Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all
إِلَّا امْرَأَتَهُ قَدَّرْنَا ۙ إِنَّهَا لَمِنَ الْغَابِرِينَ
60. Except his wife." Allah decreed that she is of those who remain behind.
