[Naml 27:1] Ta-Seen*; these are verses of the Qur�an and the clear Book. (Alphabets of the Arabic language � Allah, and to whomever he reveals, know their precise meanings.)

[Naml 27:2] A guidance and glad tidings for the believers.

[Naml 27:3] Those who keep the prayer established and pay the charity and are certain of the Hereafter.

[Naml 27:4] Those who do not believe in the Hereafter - We have made their deeds seem good to them, so they are astray.

[Naml 27:5] It is they for whom is the worst punishment, and they will be the greatest losers in the Hereafter.

[Naml 27:6] And indeed you (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), are taught the Qur�an from the Wise, the All Knowing.

[Naml 27:7] (Remember) when Moosa said to his wife, �I have sighted a fire; I will soon bring its news to you, or bring for you an ember from it so that you may warm yourselves.�

[Naml 27:8] So when he reached it, it was proclaimed, �Blessed is he who is in the location of the fire (Moosa) and those who are close to it (the angels); and Purity is to Allah, the Lord Of The Creation.�

[Naml 27:9] �O Moosa, I am indeed, in truth, Allah the Almighty, the Wise.�

[Naml 27:10] �And put down your staff�; so when he saw it writhing like a serpent, he turned moving away without looking back; We said, �O Moosa, do not fear; indeed the Noble Messengers do not fear in My presence.�

[Naml 27:11] �Except the one * who does injustice and then after evil changes it for virtue � then indeed I am Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful.� (Other than the Prophets.)

[Naml 27:12] �And put your hand inside your armpit - it will come out shining white, not due to any illness; a sign among the nine signs towards Firaun and his people; they are indeed a lawless nation.�

[Naml 27:13] Then when Our enlightening signs came to them, they said, �This is clear magic.�
