Verses 1–4

O people of Quraysh! Just think of the blessings of your Lord, who had the Kaaba built and made its surroundings a city blessed with abundance, where trade is carried on in safety in summer and winter, and so provides for you and protects you from dangers.

Your Lord had the Kaaba built as a house, a mosque, and a school, in which the purpose of your creation is taught and people are invited to it. So you, too, respond to the call of the Lord of that house and worship Him.

The translation is the Turkish translation by Mustafa Çavdar, in English where it has been translated. Verse groups and the group translation are from the Turkish translation by Mustafa Çevik. The explanatory translation was compiled by combining various translations.

The Arabic text follows the orthography of the mushafs printed in Turkey. Transliteration: Muhammet Abay, “Çeviriyazı”.
